AUTHOR'S POV;Damon sat at the head of the table, his gaze cold and calculating. Around him, the other alphas of the enemy packs murmured among themselves, their eyes fixed on him with a mix of fear and respect."We have gathered here today to discuss the invasion of Brian's domain," Damon began, his voice low and menacing."Our scouts have reported that his pack is weak, ripe for the taking. We must strike now before he has a chance to rebuild his defences."The other alphas nodded in agreement, their expressions grim. They knew that Brian was a formidable opponent, even in his current state of grief.But they also knew that this was their chance to finally defeat him, to take over his pack and leave him with nothing."Our defence is strong, but we must work together if we are to succeed," one of the alphas spoke up his voice firmly."We cannot afford to underestimate Brian. He may be grieving, but he is still a powerful alpha. We must be prepared for anything."Damon nodded, his eye
ALPHA BRIAN’S POVAs I stepped out of my upper chamber, the weight of the past months hung heavy on my shoulders. The once vibrant and confident alpha now felt like a mere shadow of his former self.The air was thick with a mixture of uncertainty and anticipation as I gazed out at my domain, now shrouded in darkness under the full moon."Alpha Brian," a voice called out, breaking through the silence of the night. It was one of my pack members, their tone filled with a mixture of surprise and relief. "You've returned."I nodded silently, acknowledging their presence but unable to muster the strength to respond. The sight before me was overwhelming—the land that once thrived with life and energy now seemed barren and desolate."You look different, Alpha," another voice chimed in, this time tinged with concern. "Are you alright?"I forced a weak smile, attempting to mask the turmoil raging within me. "I'm fine," I replied, though the words felt hollow even to my ears.My pack members exc
AUTHOR'S POV;Sitting around the large oak table in the dimly lit chamber, the weight of the situation hung heavy in the air.The faces of the elders, weathered and wise, reflected the gravity of the decisions that lay before them. Adam, sat by Brian, his expression determined as he spoke."We need allies," Adam began, his voice echoing in the silence of the chamber. "We need support if we are to stand against our enemies.Our pack is in danger, threatened by invaders who seek to overthrow us and seize our land.We needed strength, unity, and above all, allies who would stand by our side in our time of need.""We could seek the aid of my cousin Logan," he continued, his voice measured. "He leads his own pack, Silverwood, and is known for his strength and wisdom."ALPHA BRIAN'S POV;I and the elders exchanged glances, a mix of curiosity and uncertainty in their eyes.It had been fifteen years since I had last spoken with Logan, our paths diverging as we each assumed the mantle of leade
ALPHA BRIAN'S POV;Our spirits were aflame with purpose and determination, the air pulsed with expectation as my pack assembled in the center of our domain.The campfires cast flickering shadows on the faces of the wolves, our eyes gleaming with fierce determination as we prepared for the battle that lay ahead.As the leader of the pack, I stood tall and proud, my gaze sweeping over my warriors with pride and admiration. I could feel the energy pulsating through the air, a tangible sense of unity and purpose that bound us together as one."My fellow wolves," I began, my voice ringing out with authority and conviction."Today, we stand on the brink of war. Our enemies encroach upon our land, seeking to destroy everything we hold dear. But we will not cower in fear." I said, and pulsed to catch my breath."We will not back down in the face of adversity. We will fight with everything we have, for the safety and security of our pack, our home, and our future!"A chorus of cheers a
ARIANA'S POV;I stood before the gathered members of Nightshade Pack, my heart pounding with anticipation as I prepared to address them.I knew that my words would be met with skepticism and doubt, but I was determined to prove myself worthy of their trust."I have come to reclaim my rightful position as the Luna of this pack. To lead these people," I declared, my voice ringing out with conviction.As my words echoed through the crowd, murmurs of disbelief rippled through the gathered wolves. How could they trust someone who had once betrayed them?"I know that my actions in the past have caused harm and distrust among you," I continued, my voice softening with sincerity."But I pledge my allegiance to Nightshade Pack, and I forsake and denounce any loyalty I once held to Brian."The crowd remained silent, their eyes fixed on me as they waited for me to prove my loyalty."I will prove to you that I am worthy of your trust," I declared, my voice steady despite the uncertainty swirling
ALPHA BRIAN'S POV;I stood alone in my chamber, surrounded by the suffocating silence that echoed the turmoil within me.Bitterness and anger seethed beneath the surface as I gazed at my reflection in the mirror. How had everything spiraled into such chaos?A wave of emotions overwhelmed me as I thought of Ariana, once the love of my life, now a distant figure who had forsaken our bond.The pain of her betrayal cut deeper than any physical wound, leaving a raw ache in my heart.With a clenched fist, I struck out at the mirror, unable to bear the sight of my own shattered reflection.Glass exploded into a thousand fragments, scattering across the floor like fallen stars. Blood welled from the gashes on my arm, a stark reminder of the agony that consumed me.As I stood amidst the wreckage, hopelessness washed over me. How could I ever find peace amidst this chaos?The woman I had loved with every fiber of my being had turned her back on me, leaving me adrift in a sea of despair.I sank
AUTHOR'S POV;Damon sat at the head of the table, his brow furrowed in deep contemplation, as Victor and the elders voiced their concerns about Ariana's true intentions.The room was filled with tension, the air heavy with suspicion and doubt."I understand your apprehensions," Damon began, his voice calm yet firm."But we cannot jump to conclusions without concrete evidence. Ariana has pledged her allegiance to Nightshade, and we must honour that until proven otherwise."Victor, the staunchest sceptic among them, shook his head adamantly. "I cannot trust her, Damon.She has deceived us once; who is to say she will not do so again? We cannot afford to be naive."The elders murmured in agreement, their expressions reflecting Victor's sentiments. They had seen the devastation caused by betrayal before, and they were not willing to risk it again.Damon sighed, running a hand through his hair in frustration. "I understand your concerns, but we cannot let fear cloud our judgment.Ariana ha
"Do you know who that woman was? or where she lives?" I asked the guards, who shook their heads negatively, making me take a deep breath."She is really so strange, and I must really find out what made her that strange, and the strange scent coming from her too," I thought within me, not being able to voice it out."Alpha, do you want us to help you fish her out?" One of the guards asked me, making me sighed softly, as I kept calm for a while."No, you don't have to worry about that, I will do it myself, when I'm ready," I told them, while they just bowed, before I finally started walking away.Time was running out, and my kids and Brian needed me back, so I just had to focus on how to get them for now, and nothing else.I thought within myself, as I started walking on, while they continued following behind me.I was already so frustrated with the fact that they are always following me, so I would have to do something about it as Soon as possible.I thought within me as I finally wal
I continued attacking Victor, who didn't give up, as he just continued fighting me back, but after a while, I was able to wound him severely.I took up the silver dagger that they wanted to use on the chief and his family, and killed them both stabbing them to death."Are you all okay?" I asked the chief and his family who had been sitting on the floor watching us all this while."Yes we are fine, and thank you for saving us from these horrible people," the chief thanked me, while I just helped them all up."Thank you so much Alpha Ariana," The two guards also thanked me, while I just smiled at them."We will be leaving now, but there is no Pack here again, because I have ended everyone here for what they did to my son, and myself," I told them, while they kept calm as they stared at me."I know you might be wondering why I did it, but I couldn't stand the fact that my kid was killed by those people, and they were living their best life," I explained, as tears clouded my eyes again."
More rage filled my heart, as I couldn't stand it anymore."We are going to the nightshade pack tonight," I said, standing in front of Brian who looked at me with a questioning look."We are going to end time tonight for what they did to our son," I spoke up again, and just then he nodded agreeing with me totally.I didn't hesitate, as I walked away immediately. ALPHA BRIAN'S POVI quickly got into my car, and off I went to my cousin Logan pack.Once I arrived there, he welcomed me wholeheartedly, as we both had our seats."Alpha Brian, to what do I hold this visit?" He asked me, grinning from ear to ear, as I cleared my throat immediately."I need your help," I told him, with all seriousness."With what bro, just tell me anything." He said, and I sighed softly, as I finally explained to him, how I wanted to attack the nightshade pack tonight."So you have finally decided to forget about Ariana, and kill them all?" He asked me, as he took up a glass of wine which was on t
ARIANA'S POVI finally decided to take a break after running for so long. I transformed back to my human form, as I sat under and had my seat under the shade of a tree.It was night time already, and I think I still had a long way to run, since I decided to take the woods.I didn't escape with a car, so I had to go through the woods, so that I could be able to get home early enough, but until now, I still haven't gotten back to Brian Pack, and to be honest I'm really so tired right now.All I wish for right now is to have a good sleep at least. I really deserve it, but my mind really wants me to get to Brian's house as soon as possible.I miss my children so much, and I bet they also do the same, so I really had to do something. I thought to myself, as I took a deep breath as I glanced around."I need to sleep a little, once I wake up, I will continue my race, and I bet I will be back at Brian's pack by morning," I said out loud.I stood up from where I was seated, and sta
"There is no need for that investigation Chief, we already know the enemy already, and here she is," Victor pointed to me, as he stood up on his feet."She had attacked me before, even though her face was covered I can tell she was the one," he spoke further, as I swallowed hard, and just stared on."Yes Chief, Victor is right, we should just punish her already," one of the elders added, while I still kept calm, waiting patiently for the chief to respond to them.All the elders kept talking about how they wanted me to be punished right away and the kind of punishment they wanted for me."Silent everyone," the chief screamed with his voice showing total command, and immediately the noisy meeting room became calm."She is not guilty of this offence, and I believe the person guilty is freely living his life," the chief said, making everyone gasp.They were totally not expecting the chief to say something like that, and to be honest, I also wasn't expecting the chief to also say something
I took a deep breath as I finally moved back from the gate of the dungeon, and had my seat since I was already so tired of standing.I soon heard a sound of footsteps approaching, and quickly stood up again, as I rushed towards the door, and stood there waiting for the person."Is there nobody here?" I heard Damon's voice, making me frown immediately, and realized he was the one."No there is no one here," I finally responded to him, as I held onto the door tightly."Where did he go?" He asked me, and I opened my mouth to tell him, but stopped, as part of me told me to lie to him."He went to ease himself, " I lied, while he sighed softly."Do you know where he kept the keys," he asked me, while I quickly shook my head."No I don't, but don't tell me you want to free me from this dungeon without anyone's approval?" I asked him, as I waited patiently for his response."No, I can't just do that," he said, making me sigh softly, as I took a deep breath."Okay that's better, but what do y
"Did you have anything to eat?" I asked them, and they looked up at me."We have only had breakfast," Ava responded to my question, making me glance at the wall clock.I gasped seeing that it was noon already. "I can't believe this, please come with me," I said, as I quickly rose to my feet, and I held their little hands on my both hands, as we made our way out of my office.Why would the cook starve my kids? I thought within me, as we continued strolling.Once we arrived at the dining room, and made them both sit down, as I made my way into the kitchen.Just as I had thought the cook was actually there, and immediately I stepped in, she noticed my presence and turned to look at me."Alpha, do you need your food now?" She asked with a calm voice, making me frown immediately."How dare you starve my children," I barked, making her shiver and moving away."I left my children in your care, and you decide to starve them right?" I pulsed for a while, before I finally continued."Because I
"I will find the evidence soon," I said with so much confidence."We really hope you do Alpha, because it will be the best thing ever, " they chorused, while I thanked them again, before we continued our walk again.Once I got into the house, I felt a hand grab hold of me, making me stop as I quickly turned around to see who it was."Damon," I muttered, as I came face to face with Damon, who just smiled at me."Where have you been, I have been looking everywhere for you," he told me, as he moved very close to me."I.." I stuttered on my words as I looked up at him.I could literally feel his hot breath in my face, as he was just too close to me, and I really don't want that.It was actually making me so uncomfortable, and I wished I could ask him to move away, but I also wanted him to feel offended, because I know how he could be some time."I went to investigate this case that they are accusing me of," I finally answered his questions while facing the floor."Oh okay, but you should
"I'm innocent of this crime you all are accusing me of, I really didn't do it," I spoke up, getting all frustrated with the injustice they were doing."If you didn't do it, then who did?" The chief asked me, making me calm immediately, as I thought of someone that could have done it."I'm still waiting for you to say something," The Chief reminded me, making me look up at me."I don't really know, but if I'm given more time, I will come up with good evidence," I told him, with my voice lingering with determination.The Chief kept calm for a while, as I could tell my words, get into him, making him so reluctant to pass his judgement."It's so obvious that she is guilty," I heard Victor's voice from behind me, making me frown immediately, as I turned around to see him coming into the meeting room.This man is so annoying, and I really wished I could just kill him right now, so there won't be anyone trying to make me look bad before the people."Why did you say so?" The Chief asked him,
"I'm going to question the head of the guards," I finally spoke up,as I looked up at him."No, don't go close to him," Victor said, making me wonder what was going on in his Head."And why would you tell me that?" I asked him, with my voice filled with wonder, as he just stopped me."You are not fit to do the questioning as you are also a suspend, and it would be foolish of us to allow you do the investigation,"He spoke up, and to be honest I felt hurt hearing those words from him.I couldn't move anymore as I just stood rooted to the spot I was standing before."Yes, you are not worthy, and don't even think of coming closer to the man," Another of the elders spoke, adding to the pain I was already feeling."That's enough, whoever wants to question this man should just step forward, instead of this humiliation on our Alpha," Damon said, and just then an elder stepped forward.Everyone focused their attention on them, while I slowly went back to my seat feeling so ashamed of myself.I
