The older couple were waiting for them. Clyde informed his father the previous night. Luna was introduced to them and after a short greeting, she presented them the item she has been carrying.

Alex didn’t realize it was the same thing Akira brought. Luna has changed the covering into a pretty glittery textile.

“This is a gift from me and my wolves. I’m sure you will like it and you might have to use it soon.” She addressed Alice directly.

“For me? What is it that I might be using soon?” Alice still looked young, with a few wrinkles near the eyes. Her smile carried a certain warmth.

“You guys rarely visit. This is quite a surprise.” She continued to speak as she began to unravel the piece of cloth.

“She got up early to cook several dishes. You must stay for lunch.” Conrad informed them, sounding both annoyed and commanding.

Alice gasped as the gift was finally revealed.

    They began to chat. Conrad and Alice asked questions about Luna. They haven’t involved themselves with most pack matters, letting Clyde showcase his leadership. They help out when they’re needed, especially when there’s an attack. They haven’t stopped training. The two of them would still train together on a daily basis, even if it’s just a couple of hours a day. They have nothing much to do anyway.Clyde and Sab updated them on what’s going on in the territory. Alex was asked a few times and shared information.Luna felt relaxed around them.“You didn’t bring Tyler?” Alice finally asked, though she has an inkling on why they didn’t. That boy is still her grandson.“Today is for you to meet Luna. You know that kid. He would’ve caused trouble, one way or another.” Clyde responded with a somewhat defeated expression.“You still can’t control him, huh?” Conrad mocked his own son.Clyde sighed and Alex noticed that Luna suddenly smiled while sipping her tea.He wondered if she knew someth

    The thing was, the young man didn’t want to talk about it. Not even when Clyde persisted on getting answers. He can only give his son a set of general advice when he doesn’t know the specifics.“She doesn’t want you?” There was a change in the young man’s expression but Clyde couldn’t tell what it was. He seemed angry and disappointed, but he’s not lashing out. That’s something.“Do you want her?”Tyler’s expression became even more complicated. So, he himself was unsure, huh?“Well, once you’ve decided whether you want her or not, you better start building a good relationship with her. I know you have a sharp tongue. I’ve heard you talking to your friends. You’re crude and nasty things come out of your mouth. If you’ve talked to her like that, I can understand why she doesn’t like you.”Tyler began to look pissed and Clyde could swear

    Luna shook her head, “He will have an heir, but he’s not going to be this pack’s alpha. You will.”Tyler’s getting confused, “I don’t get it. How about him? You’re not some crazy shit, are you?”She chuckled at his tone and expression. The sound of her laugh was enchanting. The young man felt like he should believe her. And yet, it seemed so absurd . . .“How about Alex?” Unless he gets a response to this, it would be difficult for him to believe he’s going to be an alpha. Sure, he might have fantasized about it when he was younger but that was it. He kept reminding himself that there’s no way he would have the chance.“There’s something else in store for him. You don’t need to be worried. He will be an alpha as well, but not of Snow Mountain.”His frown deepened. Her words don’t make sense to him.“Which pack are you from? Is th

    Alex appreciated the fact that Luna stopped coming on too strong. In the beginning, she would usually highlight her claim that she is his mate. It has both positive and negative effects on him. The more he hears of it, the less he’s inclined to believe it. This one’s more out of spite. On the other hand, it also has the opposite effect. The more she repeats it, the more he’s beginning to believe it was real. The contrast was driving him mad.Thankfully, when his mother began taking Luna to see the pack, she spoke less of it. Most nights, she’s too tired to even tease him. She would go to bed early after a short chat with him. He maintained their physical distance in bed. Though they’re sharing one, they haven’t done anything intimate. She would sometimes tease him for kisses, but he has evaded them by feigning ignorance. He would feel bad whenever he sees her disappointed reaction. After a while, he began contemplating how he could kiss her

    “Hi, mom. You don’t need to cook so many.” His stomach was churning and he currently has no appetite. He’s nervous tonight. He hoped they wouldn’t ask too many questions and simply agree to his requests.He glanced at Luna who gave him a reassuring smile. Alex was quick to notice this and frowned. He decided he might as well just ask Tyler.“So, what are you up to?” He hasn’t heard much about Tyler’s activities. He has already delegated the monitoring of training activities to someone else. He used to do it when he’s younger.“Nothing. Yet. I’m trying to focus on training for now.” The young man could barely maintain eye contact with his brother. He’s not used to interacting with him, that’s why.Alex realized he couldn’t say much when he doesn’t have his brother’s data. He should watch the next monthly evaluations to see how Tyler is performing. He

    “Tell me about Layla. What do you know about her? Was she in class with you? You have the same birthday?” Their mom asked after a while. The matter was discussed just like that and the rest of them began to eat. The questions are no longer heavy.“Yeah. Same birthday. She was in my class. I don’t know much about her, but I’ve seen her plenty of times in class. I’m usually aware of what goes on around me.” He detailed his observations, which earned him good points from his mother.“Well, at least you know such things. If I remember correctly, she’s being raised by her father alone?” Sab turned to her mate.“Do you know anything about her parents?”Clyde took a moment to recall the information. “Her mother’s long dead. I’m not sure of the details. Her father raised her in the city as he worked as a researcher for a business being run by our pack members. He’s a d

    Her soft lips were enticing and she parted them for him. He embraced her tightly, moving one hand to her nape to keep her in place. She moaned once as he delved inside her mouth, coaxing her tongue and teasing it to tangle with his. She was finding it difficult to breath so she pushed him off a little. She quickly hid her face on the crook of his neck, panting as she tried to catch her breath. Alex, on the other hand, was astonished by his profound discovery. Kissing her was somewhat addicting. Her taste was sweet and her softness was quite comforting. He tried to be bolder this time despite his inexperience. She wouldn’t know the difference anyway. “What activities do you have for tomorrow?” He asked as she gently slid down the bed. He helped as she went to bury herself under the blanket. “Tomorrow? I only have training tomorrow.” “The whole day?” “Mid-morning to mid-afternoon.” “I see. If you have nothing to do, you can come to my office.” He laid next to her, but not under th

    “No, don’t say that. You said he was happy, right? Maybe it’s something else. Maybe he realized he’s not ready to become a father yet. What does he know about babies, right? I say bring him to the nursery and let him interact with children. That should help. He should slowly get used to crying babies and screaming kids.”The imagery made Polly laugh. She hoped it’s that simple.“You know how he is. It’s difficult for him to open up and share his thoughts and feelings. I kept trying, but his refusal is making me feel frustrated, too.”“I’m so sorry. Do you want me to talk to him? Or I can ask Clyde.”Polly shook her head, “No, that’s not it. Maybe later, if he proved to be difficult. I’m wondering if I could speak to . . . uhm, the girl. The one they call Little Moon. She was the one who told Jared we would conceive a child that night. Maybe she knows something else?

    Alex already came up with a few things they want to establish for the welfare of most packs. He can’t say they’re the best with training, but he’s sure they can come up with the best training program. The other alphas could come in to give lessons once in a while. No one contradicted this suggestion so it was easily given a go signal. They still need to prepare the infrastructure so it would take time. It would be like a training camp, which would only last a few months per batch. Their target date was a year from now, making it quite manageable. Luna was highly interested. She knew it’s a way for their future daughters to meet their mates and it would work the same way for others. It’s a good channel to allow members from various packs to legitimately meet in a safe environment. The year passed by and Luna gave them another surprise. It was unheard of but it made everyone accepting of what’s to come. It also destroyed the remaining doubts in the hearts of everyone. As for an heir, L

    When they retired to their room, Alex and Luna stared at each other in all seriousness. Then, they both sighed. The celebration was tiring and they’re glad it was over. They also ended up chuckling at their similar reactions. “Tired?” He helped her take off the crown and the light cape she’s wearing. “Hmm.” She stood still for a moment before doing the same for him. “I’m not wearing that crown every day.” She declared as she stored them in a separate cabinet. “I’m with you. It’s quite impractical.” He went to take a shower and she joined him after getting a change of clothes. As they laid on the bed, Luna tried to relax in his arms. “What are you thinking?” He gently asked while caressing her hair. “Will you share your plans now? The Lycans are no longer a threat. What do you have in mind?” She spoke softly, tilting her head to look at her mate. “Do you foresee other threats in our future?” His question made her pause and he caught the moment she had a vision. He waited and did

    Jared was worried. He left his mate and their daughter home. Polly was sick and couldn’t come with him to the celebration. He was reluctant to go but she convinced him that he must. “You’re an alpha now. Your presence is required.” When he didn’t look convinced, she added, “We’ll be fine here. Nothing would happen. Alex already confirmed that there are no more Lycans. No one would attack us while you’re gone. Besides, don’t you remember Luna’s words? We’ll have a son soon.” Her eyes twinkled, looking forward to having another child. She has waited for so long before they were blessed with one. The prospect of having another made her excited. She wanted to be a mother. She wanted them to have an actual family, complete with children. He sighed as he relented, “Fine. I’ll come back as soon as I can.” “I know. Try to have a little fun, Jared. The war is over. When you return, we’ll be able to focus on our own lives. I’d like to see you spend some time with your daughter.” Jared grun

    Layla went to the celebration, along with Tyler and his parents. They dared to leave the territory in the hands of their trusted men. At this point, they were quite certain that the Lycans have been eliminated. Or so they thought. The last Lycan was introduced to everyone by the Luna Queen herself. It seemed symbolic, if she was called a peace offering. But why a peace offering? The Lycans didn’t offer them peace. They were quite determined to ruin the werewolves. Who exactly offered the peace? That’s what she couldn’t figure out. “Who knows? Maybe it’s one of Luna’s mysteries. She definitely knew something. Let’s just wait and see.” Tyler replied to her when she voiced out her thoughts. She showed him a tentative smile, which also carried her confusion. She looked adorable in her dress, prompting him to bop her nose. It’s the most he could do when they’re surrounded by many people. He licked his lip, tempted to kiss his mate. Layla blushed when she noticed his movement. She pinche

    Brix spearheaded the celebration. They don’t have resident elders yet. To be honest, none of them think they need one. Luna was enough and she knew more than any other werewolf. The crowns were displayed on the platform and each guest couldn’t help but check them out. It’s a sight to see. The couple went around to greet people. They made time to chat with the people they’re really close with. Before anyone could complain about hunger, a ceremony was performed to officially recognize them as Alpha King and Luna Queen. “Didn’t think I would see the day we’ll have royals again.” Someone whispered. “Didn’t think I would see this palace restored to its former glory and actually set foot in here.” Another responded. Everyone observed the ceremony with admiration and respect for the couple. They have proven themselves. They are powerful, having abilities unique to them and empathetic towards their kind. They cared and they were humble. No one believed their reign would be detrimental to

    Seeing how everyone has worked hard to overcome the enemies, Layla truly felt useless. She’s not a fighter. She’s not even inclined to train. She’s terribly clumsy. Just like her father, she’s more of a thinker than a warrior. She has a good memory and she likes to read and analyzing things. It’s one of the things which made her believe the city is where she belonged. She helped out where she can, tending to the needs of their many guests. When Luna began healing those which have been injected by the unknown substance, Layla went to assist her. She knew her dad would appreciate certain information and some blood samples, so she took them when she can. Alpha Clyde gave her permission to do so and a little laboratory was set up for her. It’s only for storage and observation as it’s not equipped with the right machines. She already told her dad to come and help out. Alex’s expression darkened when he was informed that his mate has fainted. She worked beyond her limits, resulting to a l

    “What was his name again? The bastard’s going rabid.” Austin was quick to report, despite not knowing each detail. “Raul, he’s called.” Nathan grunted in addition, “He’s acting wild. Erratic. We’ll need to corner to him.” “I’m right with you. Leave him to me.” Luna responded, surprising the others. “Why are you here?” “Weren’t you inside?” “He escaped, so I followed him.” “Need assistance?” Nathan didn’t want to hinder her, so he asked. “If you’re not busy, I would appreciate that.” She was not prideful enough to reject their offer. “Where’s Akira?” Alex thought the wolf was after Raul earlier. “He’s busy.” Luna glanced to her left and saw the wolf toying with a Lycan. Why is he being playful at this time? She groaned. “Akira, kill.” She gave the order and the wolf reluctantly obeyed. Then, he went to find another. That’s better. Eventually, she realized why he acted the way he did. The werewolves have already defeated plenty of them. The bodies littered the territory. Almo

    When Austin and Kyla joined the others, he heard their murmurs. “What happened?” “There were many of them! We got surrounded at one point. Alpha told us we should go. We didn’t realize he didn’t come out with us. It would be bad if they find him and he has no one with him.” One explained in a guilty tone. “Don’t worry about him. It was intentional.” Luna informed them quite calmly. There’s no hint of worry on her expression, simply determination. The others calmed down after hearing it. So, their leader wasn’t captured. Luna approached the girl, who hesitantly hid behind Austin. “Don’t be scared. She’s our Luna Queen, the one I told you about.” “Kyla, it’s nice to meet you.” She went to hold the girl’s hand and took her into one of the vehicles. “The battle is not over yet. Wait here. We’ll take you with us to the castle once this is over.” “Uh, okay.” Kyla timidly replied. “There’s water and food here. Take what you need.” Luna kindly offered and the girl thanked her. Alex

    “Here. Let me show you what she looks like.” Luna extended her hand towards Austin, whose eyes widened.“You can do that?”She lightly chuckled. “Yes. Now, come on. It would be a disaster if you get the wrong girl.”“No, I won’t let that happen.” He quickly reached out and his senses were hijacked as soon as their fingers touched.He saw the girl’s face, then the scene zoomed out to show him her clothing and a room. It was etched into his mind.Luna withdrew her hand and asked him, “Do you remember what she looks like?”“Yes. She’s young, isn’t she?” He would say she’s only twenty or something.“Hmm. Your mission is to rescue her and get her to safety. It won’t be easy.”Austin grimaced, recalling the previous reports on the Lycan women they rescued.He sighed, “I’ll do my best. Hey, is that
