Chapter Thirty-Eight. ANDREA. I went back to my room ignoring Alessia who was walking behind me, she was trying to catch up with me, but I wouldn’t slow down. ‘That’s what you get for making me quit’ I scoffed as I entered my room. “Oh come on Andrea, don’t give me the silent treatment now.” Alessia groaned, slumping herself on the couch while watching me do my thing. I didn’t say anything to her, just busy going through my stuff to get what I could wear after bathing. She blocked my way to the bathroom and I tried to move past her but couldn’t, seeing that she wouldn’t give way, I raised my head to glare at her only to meet her cute face. “I’m sorry babe, please forgive this big sister of yours, please.” She pouted, blinking her eyes continuously, and I sighed. “Fine, you’re forgiven,” I grumbled under my breath. “Yay, I love you, Andrea and I promise to get you your favorite ice cream.” She said and I shook my head. Alessia can be childish at times and also serious, bu
FRED. It was hard for me to let my mate I just met go, but with the Alpha reasoning, I agreed. My mate was a human, and it’s something no one has heard of before, it’s so unrealistic to have a human mate. Wolves are paired with a fellow wolf, either male or female, the same goes with humans. I don’t know what the goddess was thinking when she made a human my mate, was she trying to bring us (humans and wolves) together? I sighed bitterly, grumbling under my breath as we drove out of the company, I didn’t want to leave her behind. She’s mine, and she’s supposed to leave with me. ‘Take it easy Fred, don’t scare mate away.’ Drew, my wolf said; I was surprised he just spoke. He hardly ever said anything to me, he only appeared when I needed to shift, but after that, he disappeared back to wherever he came from. I thought it was a problem I had, seeing the others communicating with their wolf while mine went MIA on me was my biggest fear. I even consulted the elders about it, but th
ANDREA. I woke up with a jolt breathing heavily, same dream but this time it was so different, like I could feel the pain over and over again. “What the heck was that?” I asked no one in particular, still trying to calm my racing heart down. “What are you talking about?” I almost jumped out of bed when I heard the voice beside me, but after looking thoroughly, I saw it was Alessia. What was she doing in my room and on my bed? “Andrea, what were you talking about and why is your heart beating like a party drum?” She got up yawning tiredly. “I’m fine and about what I said, it’s nothing. Just asking myself some weird questions.” I got up also, almost rushing to the bathroom but paused when she called my name. “Andrea!” “Hmm,” I answered not looking at her. “Look at me Andrea, tell me, are you okay?” She asked, standing at her front. “Are you okay?” She asked again, but I couldn’t bring myself to stare at her. I would rather not answer her question, I just wanted to let it
ANDREA. The next time I woke up, I found myself back in my room with Amy, Emma, Alessia, and surprisingly, Liliana was with me in my room. The girls were lying on my bed, with Amy’s hand on my waist holding me down tightly, sleeping like there was no tomorrow. I chuckled a little before trying to get up without waking her up, but that didn’t work out. “Hey, you’re up.” Amy got up first, yawning at the same time, trying to put her disheveled hair in place. “Good morning Amy.” I greeted her, and she smiled. “Morning, Luna.” I stilled in her hug, who told her I was the ‘unwanted’ Luna. “There’s no need to be surprised Andrea, I knew you were our Luna and Alpha’s mate since the day Alpha Dante refused to kill you. And you both proved me right at the mating ceremony, kissing each other like you wouldn’t see again.” She teased and I blushed. “Hey.” I heard someone call and turned to see Alessia up already. “How are you, Andrea? You gave us a scare last night.” She moved closer
Chapter Forty ANDREA. “No, Alpha Dante wants to have a word with the Luna of this pack.” “The Luna of this pack?” I asked back. “Yes.” “Then go ahead and call her.” I bit my lips, Why was he calling another the Luna of the pack? I felt a stabbing pain in my chest. “Uhm.” He cleared his throat. “If I’m not mistaken, Andrea, you’re the Luna of this pack, right?” He asked, and I nodded. “Then the Alpha wants to speak with you.” What? Don’t tell me I’ve been jealous of myself, but why is the Alpha calling me? I stared at Fred to see if he was bluffing, but I couldn’t tell with that smirk on his face, I turned my gaze to Alessia who just nodded and shrugged. Definitely not the answer I was looking for, before facing Fred. “You mean the Alpha wants to speak with me? Me Andrea?” I asked, pointing at myself. Fred rolled his eyes and sighed. “You’re Andrea right, and you’re his mate right,” I nodded then he continued. “Then you’re the one he’s calling.” I breathe in and o
ANDREA. ‘Mate look so hot.’ Eliza gushed, staring at Dante. I also stared at him with wide eyes, but he didn’t pay attention to me. “We are here to talk about her powers and not to chide her like a baby, Dave, so I would advise you to watch your tune. Remember, you’re speaking to my mate, the Luna of Blood Moon Pack.” I melted in my seat when he said that, my yummy Alpha. Dave cleared his throat, still staring at Dante, then took his eyes back to his other cohort who didn’t want me to be the Luna, but none of them gave him a look, they took their face the other way and seeing no one was coming to his aid he chuckled nervously rubbing his palms together. “I didn’t mean to insult you or your…mate, Alpha Dante. I’ll mind the way I talk to her.” He slumped on his seat immediately after saying that, breathing shakily, and I smirked, good to know my mate has such an effect on them. “So, back to our question, And…,” he trailed and quickly corrected himself when Dante glared at him
Chapter Forty-Four. FLASHBACK. Young Dante ran faster through the forest, howling from time to time. ‘Stop Dante, you’re going too fast.’ Someone mind-linked him, but he just snorted without stopping. ‘You’re a slow poke, Fred.’ He teased, looking at the gray wolf behind him. ‘I’m not Dante, you’re just too fast.’ Fred argued. Dante went on running at a fast pace, and before he knew he was at his pack’s border, the one that led to the other pack. He slowed his pace, walking slowly, but he stopped in his steps when he heard a scream. ‘What was that?’ He asked his wolf, Blaze. ‘We don’t we find out.’ He snickered and then changed from his wolf form to his human body. He walked slowly, his feet making soundless noises, so he wouldn’t attract any danger over there; that’s if there was a danger. He hid behind a tree and watched as four rogues surrounded a wolf, he squinted his eyes more and scoffed when he found out it was a young girl. “Can’t believe they’re attacking
Chapter Forty-Five. “Yes, and may I know the beautiful name of my beautiful mate?” He gave her a polite smile and watched in fascination as she blushed. “Estelle, I’m Estelle, daughter of Alicia the second.” She said. Dante paused for a while, he hadn’t heard of that name before but anyway, he didn’t mind. “Want to come to my pack with me?” He asked, but she shook her head. “No, I can’t, I need to help Mother with the house chores. She’s sick and needs help.” Dante's face fell, he really wanted to take her to his pack. Show her around, so everyone could see how beautiful his mate is. “Alright, but when can I see you?” She gave him a billion-dollar smile. “You can meet me here, same time and every day.” And so they agreed to meet under the tree between the two packs, Estelle made Dante believe she was a werewolf. They dated behind their families' backs, and Dante was only able to confide in his best friend about finding his mate. “When are you going to tell the Alpha
An hour later. We were in the Crescent Moon Pack house, Dante and Fred were already here so we didn’t meet much of their interaction. Nicholas was the first to see me as I walked in, and he rushed to my side, Rae and Alessia in a defensive stance behind me as they saw him coming closer. “Please forgive me, Andrea! I… I had no idea my parents did that to your parents, please, we are sorry.” He begged as he fell on his knees. I stared at Nicholas and looked around if I could see Lilith anywhere, but she was nowhere to be found. My eyes met with Sarah’s and I could see her trying to hold her tears. I nodded at her, and she smiled before taking my gaze back to Nicholas on the ground. “I forgive you, Nicholas. Yes, I forgive you and your sister because I know you weren’t there when that happened, all I need from you is for you to return my father’s pack to me.” I said. He answered quickly before I could even finish my words, “Take it, Andrea. You can take it because it belongs t
ANDREA. TWO WEEKS LATER. Two weeks have passed since little Audrey left us for a better place. The pain of her loss was still there and I blame myself every day for not being quick, for not saving her on time. Hell, I blame myself for coming out of the bunkers, I got to know from the guards placed outside the bunkers that Audrey slipped out when she didn’t see me. She came out because of me because I couldn’t do one thing I was instructed to do. I hosted myself in a pity party and used sex as a way out, for the past two weeks I have been extra horny and wanted to jump on Dante’s bone more than ever. I thought it was because I was still grieving, but it was becoming too much. Dante tried to pull me out of my grief, but it was so hard, it was hard to forget those cute eyes and lips. Those eyes that were always staring at me in admiration…. Now I can’t see them anymore. She was gone. “I miss you, Audrey,” I whispered and then groaned when my stomach growled for the umpteenth time t
DANTE. “You can’t kill her, Dante.” She said after laughing to her fill. My brows raised at what she said, “Do you think I’m bluffing, witch, I will kill your daughter the same way you killed my parents.” I let my claws grow and then positioned them at Estelle’s neck, but Morgana said something that halted my plans. “You can’t kill her because she’s your sister.” She yelled and I froze. I froze where I was standing for some good minutes when I heard that, there was no way that was true, right? That couldn’t possibly be right, there was no fucking way Estelle could be my sister. Fuck! I don’t feel any sibling bond with her, and she doesn’t have a fucking wolf in her. Lycans are special and any family with the Lycan blood has a close bond with their sibling(s) like the way I have one with Alessia, but I don’t feel anything for Estelle so it was pretty clear that she was lying. Everything she was saying was to buy tile, and I’m not falling for that anymore. I stared at Morgan
‘Please save her, Dante.’ I managed to pass the message through the mind link, then took my eyes back to little Audrey, who was still running towards me. ‘Don’t come any closer, Audrey.’ Morgana stopped muttering her spells and I gasped in shock when she took one hand from mine and then stretched it towards little Audrey, and my eyes opened wide in shock. “No.” My heart thundered as I looked at little Audrey who wasn’t attempting to flee from there, and then my eyes moved to Morgana who was still reciting some spell with her hands stretched out. My eyes widened as I saw the spell going straight to little Audrey’s way, I tried to hold Morgana’s hand, but I was far too weak to do anything. Summoning all the strength I could mutter, I yelled, “Save her, Dante, please,” I begged with my other hand glued to Morgana’s. She wasn’t letting this go easy….she promised not to hurt anyone. I couldn’t move with my hand trapped in Morgana’s, my heart pounded as my breath sized. I wat
DANTE. The fight with the dead rogues and witches was both exhausting and tiring, they all didn’t want to die a second time and anytime we thought they were dead they would rise again. All my focus was on the rogues I was trying to kill, I didn’t know where Andrea was, but I could feel she was doing okay through our bond. I was busy fighting with the undead rogue for the fifth time when Jocelyn came to my side, she looked at me and then whispered something in my ear. My eyes widened immediately and when I looked at the other side, I saw Andrea already there speaking with Morgana. She wasn’t supposed to be there without anyone by her side…without me by her side. “Go Dante, I will hold this,” Fred said and I turned to him. I didn’t even know he was behind me. “Thanks,” I looked at Jocelyn who nodded then took off with Jocelyn running after me. Isa saw us and quickly ran after us. ‘Wait for me, Andrea.’ ~~~~~~~~~~ ANDREA. I got to Morgana’s side quicker than I thought and
ANDREA. I looked at Dante who had shifted and was already by my side, he pulled me closer to his warm body. “What is she doing?” He asked. “Dark magic,” I replied. I looked up, and the once sunny sky had turned dark, a strong wind blew out of nowhere while Morgana kept on chanting. My eyes widened when I saw the already dead witches and rogues waking up, and walking towards Morgana…..what the fuck!! Everyone stopped fighting as they watched the dead rising and walking towards Morgana, even the headless witches woke up and walked aimlessly towards Morgana. Morgana had a wide smile on her face as she kept on chanting and calling on whatever demon she was summoning. “We have to do something, Andrea,” Alessia said, coming over to my side. I looked at her and asked, “What can we do? The deed has already been done, we can’t turn back the hand of time unless we have that.” I said, pointing at Morgana. They all shuddered and shook their heads. “What on earth is happening here?”
ANDREA. I couldn’t stay with the women and children in the bunkers, not when my mate and every other warrior in the pack was fighting out there. I wanted to go out there since those witches came for me and I did it, after making sure all the women and children were accounted for, I sneakily left the bunkers without alerting the guards placed outside. When I made it to the battleground I saw the fight already in full swing, the smell of blood that covered the ground from dead witches or wolves hit me. I looked around at the number of her people fighting, trying to see if I could find Dante anywhere, but I couldn’t see him. My eyes met with Fred’s and for a minute, he was shocked to see me standing there. “What the fuck are you doing here, Andrea?!” He yelled, completely ignoring his surroundings. My eyes widened when I saw a witch approaching him from behind. “Watch out.” Out of instinct, I stretched my hand out and the witch's head blew off. Her body slumped on the ground wh
ANDREA. “We are under attack!!!” I froze in where I was standing as my mind comprehended the words I just heard. Under attack again… I woke up from my reverie when something tugged my dress, “We need to leave Andrea. Now!” Alessia didn’t wait for my reply before dragging me out. Although I was following her, I still couldn’t believe that we were under attack, by whom and why? The warriors who were sound and ready to fight rushed out of the infirmary with us also, and while we were heading back to Dante’s pack house they assured me that they would do everything possible to protect the pack. “Where’s Andrea?” Dante hissed, rushing outside and that was only when I came back to my senses. “I’m here, Dante.” I was immediately engulfed in his warm body and he kissed my head. “What’s going on, Dante?” I asked, pulling from the hug and searching his face. “We are under attack, Andrea, and I need you to go inside with the other women. Take your Luna to safety.” He ordered a warrio
ANDREA. “Dante!!” I called out in panic and watched in horror as the witch’s light ball moved quickly in his direction. My heart was beating hysterically as I watched Dante look at the light in both shock and anger, but he didn’t move. ‘Come on, Dante,’ I urged in my mind as I whispered a silent prayer to the goddess. I opened my eyes and saw Dante move quickly to the side, he growled and charged at the witch. I let out a sigh of relief and a tear rolled from my eyes when I saw he was okay. He killed the witch and the two others before facing me, he was breathing heavily, and my eyes roamed around his body, searching for any cut on his body and I gasped when I saw the huge injury on his back. My legs automatically carried me to his side, and before I knew it I was holding his hands, “Are you alright?” I asked, searching his eyes for any sign of pain. But all I could see there was happiness and relief. “I’m so glad you’re okay, Andrea.” He pulled me into a hug and I melted in
