~
Using up so much power drained both me and Gavrael, and we both passed out almost immediately after. We didn’t wake up till after two whole days because our bodies shut down to heal and recuperate. When we finally woke up, we discovered that using so much power had broken the hold of the third souls we each had. I no longer possessed Selene’s soul and Gavrael no longer possessed the soul of the demon king. Their essence had returned to the volcano realm after their souls split from ours. They couldn’t be killed, she was a goddess and he was a god, but it would take a long time for them to recreate a physical form. For now, I was just happy that we would no longer be the victims of an age long war.
Then came another problem, the issue of Gavrael’s possessiveness. He was no longer under the control of the demon king, but now that he knew I was pregnant, his wolf was just as easily pissed off as he was before. It was usual for the mates of pregnant females to become very territorial and very aggressive whenever they perceived even the smallest threat to their unborn pup. But like always, anything concerning Gavrael was always different, his temper was worse than a normal male would be. Not even females were allowed to come close to me and we had to move out of the pack house to the outskirts of the pack where no one was in danger of accidentally bumping into me and getting on Gavrael’s bad side. The only person he could tolerate around me right now was Theia. He would get less aggressive as my pregnancy progressed but for now I was stuck with grumpy Gav.
The pack was elated that their Luna was with child and though no one was allowed to come close to our house at the outskirts, they always dropped off things for me several feet away from our house and Theia would bring them into the house for me since she was the only one Gavrael allowed around me. I could do it myself but that was another thing I would have to get used to, I wasn’t allowed to do anything. Gavrael refused to let me lift a finger, even to get out of bed. We argued so much for the first week after the battle because I told him it was ridiculous. He was carrying me everywhere like I didn’t have legs to move, feeding me even though my hands work perfectly, even bathing me everyday, helping me get dressed, brushing my hair and more. It was fucking annoying but I know it was just the urge to care for his pregnant mate that was riding him hard, especially after all we went through to save the pack and the danger we were in. That was the only reason I was tolerating all he was doing, but if it doesn’t stop soon, I may lose my mind.
I can’t even be involved with getting the pack reorganised after the attack. We lost almost half of our warriors despite the fact that the fight between us and the nether realm’s army lasted only for a few minutes. If I had not been taken away at the start of the battle, the casualties would have been less, but it is what it is. Now we just had to find a way to move on and the first step was to grieve as a pack. The pack gathered for the final rites to the deceased. As Alpha and Luna, Gavrael and I were supposed to lead the ceremony but we couldn’t because Gavrael still hadn’t gotten over his protective streak yet so we let Theia’s parents lead and stayed a bit of a distance from the pack to avoid any incidents.
Because we were no longer bonded to our third souls, we no longer had powers. I could no longer manipulate light or use Selene’s power, and Gavrael no longer had the powers of the demon king, Zephyr. But we were still stronger than all other shifters because of the remnants of their essence in us. The Sage wolves also retained their powers. The pack was learning to function as one big unit even though we had only just been joined together recently. Reconstruction of damaged properties was ongoing and since we were a big pack now, new mate bonds have been formed between packs that had been rivals or distant from each other before. Even Gaby found her mate, he was one of the Alphas who abdicated their packs to Gavrael, but he was fatally wounded during the battle and was still healing but at least he was still alive. It would have been awful to have her mate taken from her when she had only just found him.
As months passed, Gavrael became less aggressive, and though I was still not allowed to visit the pack, now pack members were allowed to visit our house on the outskirts for short periods. The house was overflowing with gifts for my unborn pup and we had to start giving things away to other pregnant females and stop people from bringing in more. I honestly couldn’t wait to deliver, my stomach was so big, and I was always hungry nowadays or extremely horny. Gavrael had no problems taking care of all my needs, and I had to admit that I loved being doted on but I hated being unable to see my feet or having to waddle when I tried to walk. Thank the goddess that shifter pregnancies were shorter than a human woman’s pregnancy. We only had five months of pregnancy and humans had nine, NINE! Imagine being pregnant for four extra months, goddess forbid. I was in my fourth month and I was already losing my mind.
We got the shock of our lives when it was finally time for my delivery and I gave birth to twins. The female had hair so dark it blended with the night, and the male had hair so white it was nearly transparent.
We named them NYX and NYRA. One touched by darkness and the other touched by the goddess.
THE END.

PROLOGUE * "You don't seem to understand. I want you with an obsession that borders on absolute madness. The more you resist me, the harder I chase you." "You will never have me." She said and he chuckled darkly. "The thing is, I already do. There's a thin line between enemies and lovers. You. Are. Mine." ~ ADAIRA ~ Is it possible to die of excitement? Or maybe just pass out because you’re so happy you don’t know what else to do? I am the luckiest girl on the planet and today is going to be the happiest day of my life. “Slow down, Ady. You’ll hurt yourself if you keep bouncing around too much.” My mother chuckled as I twirled around our kitchen. “I just can’t stay at a place mum. I feel so... alive. It’s like there are fireworks going off in my brain and my tummy.” I giggled and twirled again. I stopped and leaned in to whisper in my mother’s ears. “I’m getting mated, mum, can you believe it?” I spoke like it was a secret when the whole pack knew what was happening. Toda
ALPHA GAVRAEL WHEN FAMILY FAILS YOU
ADAIRA~All the figurative butterflies in my tummy seemed to die at once. A cold feeling of dread settled in my tummy instead and I began to sweat for no apparent reason. My heart immediately tried to convince me that it couldn’t possibly be Tyler that said that. Maybe someone was just trying to play a prank on me, but then he spoke again and there was no doubt that it was him in there saying those words.“I’m serious, father, I’m done pretending I care about her. She’s not even my type.” Tyler said in a tone dripping with disdain.“I don’t care if she’s your type or not, Tyler, you will claim her as your mate tonight.” The Alpha growled at his son.I could hear the anger in his voice and it made me shiver. Or maybe the shiver was for a different reason, who knows. I don’t really know what or how I’m supposed to feel except that it seemed like my heart was being ripped from my chest.“She’s just an Omega, a weak Omega. I can never accept her as a mate. I only dated her because you ma
ALPHA GAVRAEL WHEN YOU'RE IN PAIN, HOWL TO THE MOON
ADAIRA ~ I walked with a smile on my face between my parents as they led me back to the pack square. My parents stood on either side of me like they were afraid I would run at the slightest opportunity. I wanted to, but I stayed for their sake. Even if it felt like my heart was being torn to shreds, I wouldn’t be selfish, they’ve given up so much for me, this was the least I could do to give them a better life. I would smile and pretend to be happy, I would mate Tyler even if he loathed my existence. It was a full moon, that was the only time this kind of ceremony could be held. Fated mates could have their mating ceremonies at any time, but those like me and Tyler that weren’t fated but decided to choose each other had to mate on the night of a full moon. It was a symbolism of getting the moon Goddess’ blessing for the union. The light of the moon always gave me comfort, and tonight was no different. I prayed to the moon Goddess for the strength to go through with this and what I
ALPHA GAVRAEL FACE YOUR PAST
SOMEWHERE IN THE CENTRE OF ALL THE PACKS, IN THE PHYSICAL BOUNDARY BETWEEN OUR REALM AND THE NETHER REALMI was buried deep in the earth and have been here for centuries, yet, the howl was strong enough to seep through multiple layers of earth and get to me. Another one of the invisible chains that held me here loosened as a flare of light wrapped around it. I was bound to the female that howl came from, I could feel the bond from the moment that she was born. During her birth, it was a full blood moon, the strongest of moons, I could feel its power despite being buried so deep. The second her infant cry rent the air, announcing her birth, one of the three chains holding me bound loosened.Today, under the light of the full moon I could feel, she released me from the second chain. I just had to wait a little while longer for her to complete the keys: Blood moon, full moon, new moon. When all the chains are gone, I will awake. And once I am free, I will destroy everyone that was involv
ALPHA GAVRAEL THE ROGUES
ADAIRA ~ I should have known that something was wrong the second I saw smoke as we approached my old pack. I pointed it out to Raed but he kissed my cheek and told me to calm down and stop letting my nerves stop us from doing this. “Relax, babe. Shifters have festivals all the time, maybe they’re roasting the kills of the last hunt.” He said to me. As we got closer, my second clue was the lack of patrol at the pack boundary. Even Raed’s brow creased with a tinge of worry but he still tried to reassure me. “Maybe they were invited to the feast as well? I don’t know what your pack security protocols are like.” He said. “There’s always supposed to be guards at the boundary, no matter what festival is going on. They usually do one hour rotations on special occasions so each of them gets to enjoy themself, and the border would still be guarded. Except Tyler changed things around here when he took over, it’s so unusual for them all to be gone at the same time.” I replied. That was whe
ALPHA GAVRAEL CAPTURED
ADAIRA~When I woke up after who knows how long, I was lying on my stomach in human form, and I was clean. Someone had bathed me, washed my hair and put a gown on me. I felt so violated and I growled as I tried to stand. How dare they touch me without consent?My back bumped into the top of whatever I was in and it made me even more angry. I looked around and discovered that I was in a fucking cage, I couldn’t rise up more than this. I only had two options in the enclosed space, lie down the way I was before I woke up or maintain my current crouch on hands and knees. Lying down would leave me vulnerable to attack so I decided to remain on all fours, it wasn’t much of an advantage if I actually got attacked while I was in this enclosed space, but it was something at least.My anger at being touched without my permission multiplied at the thought that I was locked up like a damn dog. I’m a shifter with an animal side, but it doesn’t mean I should be degraded this way, wolves deserve be
ALPHA GAVRAEL IT WAS JUST A DREAM
ADAIRA~It felt like someone was trying to fry all my brain cells and I pressed my lips together so I wouldn’t scream. I couldn’t afford to alert the rogues that I was awake. The element of surprise may be the thing that lets me outsmart these rogues so I can make my escape. If it was someone else, I would have shut them out immediately, but I held on because it was Raed, and he may have something important to tell me. At least now I know that he’s alive.“Raed.” I tried to speak through the pain.“Ady.” His voice in my head was strained, that was how I knew that he was in pain too.He may even be in more pain than I was because he was the one that initiated the mind link. I knew why this was happening, we weren’t members of the same pack, and we weren’t mated yet. He could only have access to me because he’s an Alpha, but the price of trying to form a temporal bond to be able to mind link me was the pain.“Fuck! I didn’t think doing this would hurt so much.” Raed cursed.“We need to
ALPHA GAVRAEL MEETING THE ROGUE ALPHA
ADAIRA~I made the mistake of trying to get up again, forgetting where I was for a moment. I snarled and cursed as my back collided with the top of the cage. I looked around, momentarily confused why I was still in a cage, I thought we had already escaped. My eyes widened as I finally realised what had happened… O dear goddess, I was just dreaming. We never escaped.“Who is Raed?” The man in front of me growled menacingly.He was crouched in front of my cage and in my position, I couldn’t see his full frame, just his face. But I didn’t need to see him completely to know who he was, I felt the power that seemed to seep from his pores. He could be no other person but the Rogue Alpha that was terrorising the other packs with his pack of miscreants. He was beautiful. Brown skinned with curly hair that was in a complicated knot on his head with some tendrils loose around his face, full sensuous lips, and those eyes that were now more golden but still had a little swirl of red in it.I had

ALPHA GAVRAEL FINAL BATTLE
GAVRAEL ~ He calls himself Zephyr, and seeing him manhandle my mate made me angry. But my anger wasn’t enough to break myself from his hold and regain control of my body. “Kill them all, I’ll deal with her. I could only watch as he took Adaira away from the battlefield, knowing that she was their only hope to win the battle against his beasts. “How does it feel having so much power but being unable to use it? You trapped me for centuries, took my memories, took my powers, kept me in this mortal body. This is just a slight taste of that. So tell me how it feels to hate what’s happening but not be able to do anything about it?” I could feel his amusement as she tried in vain to free herself from his grip. He was enjoying her struggles and her helplessness. I couldn’t even reach out to her to at least let her know that despite everything, I was still in here even if I’ve been pushed so far deep in my subconscious that I didn’t know the way out. But he had put an impenetrable barrie
ALPHA GAVRAEL NEW LIFE
ADAIRA ~ Gavrael is gone and there is no way for me to get to him. I wanted to use my powers to get across to the nether realm but Theia warned me not to do so because I would never be able to defeat him in his realm, he was stronger there. Our best chance of winning this battle is here in this realm, which means we have to wait for Gavrael’s return. By the looks of things, he would not be returning as my mate but as the demon king, with an army meant to obliterate us all. “There has to be something else we can do.” I said to Theia after waiting for an hour with no sign of Gavrael or any danger. My wolf was restless because my bond to Gavrael was so faint now that I had to search deep before I could feel it. I was terrified. What if the demon king somehow finds a way to sever our bond, how would I be able to reach my mate and bring him back? “You need to calm down. Your restlessness is affecting your pack. They’re already dreading the fight we all have coming, and they only stayed
ALPHA GAVRAEL RETURN TO THE NETHER REALM
GAVRAEL ~Heat, rage and pain. Those were the only emotions flowing through me at this moment. It was like my blood had been exchanged with lava and my head was being drilled open by a thousand nails. I felt the power of the full blood moon before it even rose and cast its reddish hue over the earth. This past week, I had to stay away from everyone except Adaira because I was losing my temper at the slightest provocation. I knew it was just because of what was coming that my restraint was shitty but at the same time, I couldn’t control myself which led to my isolation in order to protect everyone from me. Adaira was the only one whose presence I could tolerate even in those moments. And the second those rays of light from the full blood moon touched the earth, everything became worse.Heat, rage, pain. Nothing else mattered but these, and the demon whose soul was bound to me feasted on them delightfully. He was much stronger now and he was actively fighting me for control of my body.
ALPHA GAVRAEL HE LEFT
ADAIRA~I was eating more than normal out of anxiety. It was still better than worrying myself to death and overthinking everything though. My sleeping schedule was also wack but that was understandable. The full blood moon would rise tomorrow night and I just couldn’t bring myself to sleep even if it still was hours away. My wolf on the other hand was calm and mostly silent. After the night of the pack bonding ceremony where we all shifted to wolf form and ran as one pack to strengthen the pack bonds, she hadn’t made a push to be set free which was unusual. Usually, if I stayed for more than two days without shifting, she would be angsty and restless, whining to be set free, and I would have to shift and run even if for a few minutes. But it’s been days without shifting and she was still calm, I had no idea why and I was too preoccupied with everything else happening to try and figure it out. Maybe she understood the complexity of the situation we were in and was just trying to help
ALPHA GAVRAEL PREPARATION; COUNTDOWN TO THE END
ADAIRA ~ It took two days of mating almost all round the clock for my heat to die down and for the both of us to regain our senses. And as this problem was solved, another problem presented itself, our lives were just a myriad of problems nowadays but who’s counting. When we returned to the pack after my heat passed, almost all the other packs had come to join us, just two were left and they were expected to arrive in a few hours. But as I passed through the crowd, all the males were still attuned to my scent even though I was no longer in heat. Females were also drawn to my scent but it didn’t make them lust after me like it was confusing the males. It was a big problem because it was causing chaos and it was making everyone restless, and I had no idea why it was happening. In fact, it seemed to be even worse now than when I was actually in heat. Sage wolves had also been arriving from the human towns close by. They were wary but they were all put together in one house to await my
ALPHA GAVRAEL SUDDEN HEAT
ADAIRA ~ Just as expected, the rest of the pack took the news of Sage wolves with varying degrees of disgust, shock and wariness. When we announced the merger into one mega pack, they were even more shocked and awed. There were obviously protests especially when we let them know that we planned to get messages across to Sage wolves in hiding and have them come here to join the pack. But we also explained the great danger that would be coming against us and that we would only be able to defeat them if we work together. Next we let anyone with ideas step forward and speak. There was so much to be done; clearing the surrounding forest for instance, so those that would come to join us would have room to build their own houses, plans to build another general pack house where meals can be taken by a larger group because eating together was a shifter custom meant to ensure the pack bonds remain strong, same as hunting in a group and running as a pack on some full moons. There would also be
ALPHA GAVRAEL RESTORED
ADAIRA~I moved closer and held Theia’s mother by the hand. I forced myself to relax and put every doubt out of my mind. If I could protect the whole pack with the barrier, this was nothing compared to that. I didn’t really know what to envision, last night, it had been easier to see a barrier forming in my mind just like Gavrael directed. But now, do I imagine her using powers? Or imagine me giving her powers?It turned out that I didn’t need to do all that. While holding her hands, I felt some sort of vacuum, a hole in her essence. A missing piece. I didn’t need anyone to tell me that that must be the part of her where her powers used to reside, all I needed to do was to fill it up. I reached out to her with my own essence and I vaguely heard her gasp as she was zapped with it. Her hands were released from mine as she crumpled to the floor and her husband rushed to make sure she was okay.I opened my eyes to see that she was faintly glowing for a few seconds before the glow died do
ALPHA GAVRAEL WILL IT WORK?
ADAIRA~I was getting weird looks from everyone that saw me today. After eating by midnight and talking for a while, Gavrael and I had gone back to bed to sleep and woke up after dawn but later than usual, we were entitled to sleeping in after everything that happened after all. But as we left the room to join the others for breakfast, everyone was either looking at me with awe or fear or both. I figured out why when Gaby walked closer to us to speak to me.”Ady, did you really… you know, do that stuff?” She asked.She seemed unsure of how to ask her question and if she should even ask it. I also didn’t understand what exactly she was talking about, so I asked.“What stuff?”“The warriors that fought with you, they showed all of us what you did. We weren’t there but we could see it from their minds. It still seems a bit hard to believe. You were flying or floating, I don’t know, and you were glowing, and there was so much light. And you burned the dead ones, none of the creatures cou
