When I saw Daphne fall from the landslide, my whole world seemed to collide as well.Before my sanity snapped, I raced toward the river edge, ready to transform back into human form. But no matter how quickly I could do that, the time between life and death was faster. The mass of huge rocks slammed into the river, causing it to be blocked. The water spilled to the edges, seeking another route. But there was no sign of Daphne."Daphne!" Dark and I growled in unison.No, I couldn’t afford to lose my mate!I was ready to jump over the cluster of massive rocks when something landed in front of me. My eyes stretched wide when I saw a white wolf. Its coat was extremely glossy, as though it were made of thousands of stars in the sky.For a moment, I froze. But when the air brought its scent in my direction, all my senses came back to life." Daphne, it’s you." I hoofed over towards her. After a few sniffs, we snuggled with each other."Yes, it’s me," she said with a whimper."You’re ba
After assigning the night duties to every group for the fourth time this week, I retreated to my chambers. Beta Jaime was commanding them to be more diligent and careful of their surroundings, while I could only imagine Yvette sitting at the window, looking at the moon like always.She noticed me passing by when the door was open and again gave me a small smile, even though I could see her eyes filled with tears. She was in her most vulnerable state of mind at this moment, and the lack of attention from her husband only added to her concern and misery.The fire in my heart had been spreading like a forest fire, and every night I was having wet dreams of her with me in my bed. Just like usual, I proceeded to walk inside my room so that I could again daydream about her. My man had not been very useful in finding Daphne. It was as if the ground had engulfed her and she had been transferred to another planet. Whoever was helping her was very smart and must be a man of power because he l
Yvette pushed me away lightly and stood on the other side of the table, where I had my maps of different kingdoms nicely placed. Her fingers traced the lines on the paper representing several pack borders under me.A victorious smile rested on my lips because I knew that she was just shocked by my sudden proposal. In no way was she complaining or going away from my chamber. Moreover, if my knowledge was correct about her, she was just going to start her heat soon, and being away from Beta Jaime had made her sex hungry."Alpha Lennon ..." she squeaked, breaking the eerie silence."Yes, Yvette..." I answered back, and she sighed at the way I called her name."This is wrong... I mean..." She tried to come up with words to form sentences, but nothing came to mind."If this is wrong, then what Beta Jaime is doing to you is punishable too. He is ignoring his mate and letting her suffer in silence. If sharing love is a sin, then I am ready to commit it. I find nothing wrong in our relationsh
Heat instantly crept up and down my body just like wildfire. I noticed that the more I spent time with him in private, the more I got aroused, though I didn’t have any experience in this kind of field. Was I starting to get addicted to him?I smiled at him shyly. "I don’t know if I can meet your standard when it comes to pleasing you, but I really want to make you happy."He lifted an arm just to reach for my face. It slid down my shoulder and across the curves of my waist. "Your presence alone makes me happy.""Thanks." By the time I said that, my oversized shirt—I mean, Calle’s shirt—was already on the floor.The idea of making the first move was a real challenge for me, yet it stirred excitement in my system. When I started making love with him, I noticed that he was rough and smooth at the same time. He could also become gentle and sweet when he wanted to."All right, sweetheart, show me how much you want me just as much as I want you," he whispered huskily.I bit my lips after lo
I kissed her for the last time as the morning had again knocked on the doorstep which meant that we had to part ways. Yvette tied her hair in a messy bun leaving a few strands of her hair loose on both of her shoulders. Her face was still sweaty and the blush was shining like the after-glow which indicated our night spent well."I will miss you all day." She pouted as the dimples formed in her cheeks giving off her innocent look."Yes, me too. But we have to be more careful now. Beta Jaime is back in the pack and I cannot keep him at long duty hours. It's already going to be a week since we started our sneaky affair." I pulled her in my arms and she let out a playful chuckle. That sound of hers made a throbbing effect between my pants, and I almost wanted to pin her against the wall."He doesn't seem to care, Alpha Lennon. Seriously," she whispered in dismay. "I hate being in the same room as him. But we need to pretend." She put her head on my left shoulder, listening intently to my
It has been one week since Calle marked me. I looked at it in the mirror, and I couldn't help but smile. The incision on my neck had completely healed, leaving a lovely mark. It was cobalt blue in a hue that stood out against my pale skin. Every mated wolf bore a distinct mark, as did this one.I tilted my head and placed my hand on the scar on my neck, sensing it with my fingers. Instead of being flat, the hue seemed to shine and intensify like the dark skies on that night when we made love out in the wild.I was undeniably proud of my mark. But unfortunately, I needed to cover it with a lot of concealers. Calle didn’t want the idea, but like what we had agreed upon, I still had to prove that I was worthy of the title of his Luna—that was my choice.And it started with performing community service.After I took a bath and dried up, I threw on a flannel shirt and a pair of jeans. To protect myself from the extreme cold of the winter season, I wrapped a scarf around my neck and covered
In the pack, I had no one who was related to me by blood. The last person who could have been useful to me now was my father, who was dead. But maybe, if I tried to find some sort of connection in the pack, I would be able to get a few of my blood-related step-siblings or something because my father was known for having multiple affairs after my mom."Yes, I am ready to give you that. But you have to give me enough time. I will surely come back with the reward." I shifted right in front of her and marched out of her old house.It had been a week since I had seen the seer, and my mind was still racing with ideas for how I could find my blood relative in the pack. Maybe I could ask Delta about my father's affairs if he knew about any. It was so frustrating that whenever I was close to Daphne, something would happen, and it would create hundreds of miles of distance between us.I angrily pushed open the door of my chamber and was startled for a second when I found Yvette waiting there
"Alpha Calle, what do we have to discuss that I need to cancel the training for the recruits?" His face held a confused expression as he frowned. "Another life and death matter, is it?"I nodded and said, "You know Suzette breached the laws, and the one who does it deserves serious punishment." Her name on my tongue seemed off, and we shared a glance, recalling the nights we spent with her."Yes. Yes, Alpha," he stammered, taking a deep breath."She will be charged with imprisonment." I kept an eye on his hardened expression, but he was very good at hiding it due to his years of practice never letting emotions control us."That is according to the rule book of the allied packs. So your decision is fair, "Beta Degen replied, but his voice betrayed him. I could feel his sadness and anger at her. She was his destined mate, and the mate bond was strong. But his Beta loyalty was stronger than anything else. I was confident that he wouldn’t reject any of my orders."I’m glad we agreed on th
Sitting by the river, I reflected on the wonderful occasions I had shared with my packmates, such as playing in the meadow, hunting, and rushing through the forest. I also thought back on the dark times, like when a maniacal alpha and black witches besieged our pack. But through it all, we stuck together and emerged stronger than ever before. It seemed like ages ago since those memorable times, and yet it felt like only yesterday when all of this started. I sighed heavily and closed my eyes for a moment. Suddenly, a voice called out to me through our mental link. "Luna Daphne, come back to us quickly! Our pack is under attack from rogue wolves. We need backup immediately! Alpha Calle is..." Her voice was like a cry coming out loud even though it can only be heard within minds linked together. "Kyla?" I croaked as panicked thoughts raced through my head, sending an adrenaline rush coursing through me. "Did you say rogue attack? Wait, where's Calle?" My muscles tensed up, and before
Suddenly, an eye of swirling air opened up as if it had been drawn on with a great lash, and then a hurricane rushed across the battlefield and made us all cover our faces to protect ourselves from the flying mud and chunks of trees. When it faded, Kurt and Kyla stood in the middle of the circle of bloody ground. They looked around with horror before their sights slowly fell on me. The dirt was churned up where they stood, and clots of grass were bent and tangled around their feet."Alpha Calle!" The twins rushed toward me. "You need to take this!"Before I could speak, Kyla put a small vial in my hands. Its liquid content glistened with an otherworldly glow, pulsating with an energy that seemed to hum in my palms. I only stared at it as Kurt spoke. "Daphne already regained her powers after drinking the elixir. She has probably defeated Lennon by now.""Please, Alpha, drink this before it's too late," Kyla pleaded.I took the small vial from Kyla's hands. The weight of their expectati
Alpha CalleI walked through the portal, feeling its electric energy tingle in my body. I emerged on the other side to find that South America had become a wasteland. People lay dead and dismembered everywhere; their blood soaked into what were once lush grasslands now barren of life. The trees were burnt black, smoke still rising from them like an ominous warning to all who dared venture near this cursed place.But there was one living being here: Alpha Khalid stood tall amongst it all, his silver hair blowing in the wind as he surveyed his pack's destruction with sadness and rage etched onto every line of his face. He gave me an exhausted look before addressing me without words: "You've returned!"“Of course," I replied firmly. "Let's go!"The fight had taken its toll, and I was exhausted. Sweat ran down my face as I blocked a werewolf's assault with my shield and slashed another one open with my sword. I could feel the shock that surged through me when I heard Alpha Khalid shout fo
LennonThe next day, I woke up alone in my den but five beautiful nymphs had come to remove their clothes so I could choose the woman I would sleep with next. They were all eager to please and each one was more ravishing than the last; from fair-skinned goddesses with long, voluminous hair, to dark-haired beauties with sparkling eyes.I felt like a king as I looked around me at all these beautiful women ready to serve me. It was truly a sight to behold and one that made me feel powerful. I slowly got out of bed and walked over to them, looking them each in the eye as if determining which of them would be my chosen companion for the night.Finally, after much consideration, I chose one of them who caught my attention straight away: an exotic beauty with almond eyes and long curly hair that framed her face perfectly. She blushed shyly when our gazes met and I couldn’t help but find it adorable.That night, we made love under the stars and I felt a connection with her unlike any other I
LennonI was dying. I could feel the lifeblood oozing out of my deep wounds, and each breath seemed to be my last. I had been crawling for hours, trying to escape the traitors who were after me. But in my weakened state, I had finally been caught and badly injured in the process. Now, there was no escaping death.My voice cracked and echoed through the empty night air, its plea for help unanswered. I lay helpless on the ground, surrounded by the fading warmth of my blood. Then, I heard them - a chorus of female voices, faint but getting ever closer. At first, I thought it was a dream, a trick of my mind brought on by the loss of blood. But no, I was lying on the cold earth outside a village entrance I had never seen before.The women came into view, stepping out from behind the gates in a rush. An otherworldly light illuminated their hands as they moved in perfect unison. With each passing second, the wounds on my body slowly healed until not even one scar remained.These women were n
DaphneLennon snapped his fingers, and the pack of wolves behind him began to move forward like pawns. The ground shook, and I used the tremor to my advantage. With a wave of my hand, the very earth below our feet seemed to become alive with energy. Giant roots sprouted from the ground, wrapping around Lennon’s men like tentacles. The men fought against their bonds, but it was ineffective because my force was holding them fast."Enough!" Lennon shouted in shock as his voice reverberated off the forest walls all around us and then there was a strange silence. He stumbled back, glaring at me incredulously as he stepped forward, his dark eyes flashing with rage and determination. "What is this?! How are you doing this?"“I’m drawing on the power of the Moon Goddess, just as she has taught me," I replied firmly, my voice echoing in the silence of the bright sky. I felt a rush of strength course through me—this was a power that had been dormant in me for far too long, and now it was bubbli
"Kyla!" Her green eyes looked like they were going to pop out of her head, and her face was a rictus of fear. "Please tell me what's bothering you, Kyla. Is this about your conversation with Kurt that both of you wouldn't tell me?"At first, she hesitated, but I was so eager to know the truth that I asked her again. "I won't stop asking you about it until—""I was the one who injected the potion into Alpha Calle, which is why both of you are still paralyzed by it."I was taken aback. My eyes widened in surprise. So, this was the truth she had been hiding all along. I felt a chill run down my spine as I heard her story."That evil Lennon blackmailed me. He said if I didn't make a potion to harm our Alpha, he would kill Aunt Amelia, who was also imprisoned by him. I
I hugged Calle back, tears streaming down my face. I knew what he was referring to. "It's okay," I said, reassuring him through tears. "We'll get our powers back and defeat Lennon together."He nodded, wiping away my tears. Then he took a deep breath and stood up. His voice was strong when he spoke again. "Yes, we will indeed. But first, we must figure out how to save the pack before any of that can happen."He went over to his coat and pulled something out of it. It was a book with the title 'Knowledge of Witch Souls.' I tilted my head, curious about the book he had found. "Who's book is that and how were you able to bring a book with you all this time?""I've been bringing this since I left Khalid's pack. It's invisible unless I grant it to be seen. This is the perk of having a company of witches around you."The mention of witches seemed to cast a dark cloud over us both. I could tell from the look in his eyes that he was just as heartbroken as I was, remembering the tragedy of Ame
Daphne As I passed an open door, a familiar voice stopped me in my tracks—it was Lennon. “She seems to be awake now! How will I mark her?” He seemed to be talking about me, and he sounded angry. Confusion coursed through me as two other voices joined the conversation. The woman's deep alto reverberated through the stale air, almost like lightning. "I told you the magic of memory covering was temporary. You should have done your part,” “Will Daphne submit to Alpha Lennon so easily?” The man bellowed, his voice carrying a familiar baritone timbre. "There's no other option than to move him before it's too late." My stomach lurched at their words. They were planning something terrible for Calle! I gathered all my strength and took a peek at the small space between the wall and the door. My heart sank upon spotting the two people Lennon was talking with. ‘ Amelia? Beta Degen?’ Reina muttered in a high-pitched voice. She appeared to be as confused as I was. ‘Am I hallucinating, Daph
