November 3, 2022. Hello. If you haven't read HIS UNKNOWN MATE yet, you might want to check it out. It's the story between Alex's parents. Thank you for reading.
Alex sighed, trying to tamp down his curiosity and impatience. He’s not used to having a source of information but being unable to demand them. They moved from one area to another as they continued to chat. Luna felt comforted by his presence and she got this warm feeling inside her.Along the way, Akira joined them and Alex focused on the two wolves accompanying them.“Who’s the leader?” His guess was Akira but the woman shook her head, seemingly knowing his thoughts.“Killian. He’s also my guard. Akira is more drawn to you. He’s going to keep you company and protect you.”His lip twitched upon hearing her answer.“I don’t need protection. I can protect myself.”“Of course. You can just treat him as a pet.” Luna laughed when the wolf in question lowly growled in complaint and glared at Alex. He’s not going to be treated as a pet. He has a reputation to live up to.“Are they really gifts from the goddess?” He couldn’t help asking, though he’s unsure whether she would give an actual an
In the morning, Alex woke up early and went to her room. He knocked and called, but still no response. When he touched the door knob and tried it, he managed to open the door. There was a moment of elation, which quickly became a concern. “Luna?” He’s still not comfortable calling her name, as it reminds him of his mother, the current Luna of their pack. He looked around inside the room but she’s nowhere to be seen. Where could she be? “Luna?” He tried calling her again, but he already expected nothing. Akira. The wolf followed him and as he turned, he saw him. “You know where she is, don’t you?” For some reason, he couldn’t pinpoint her presence within his surroundings. It was an odd feeling. How is she doing it? His lip twitched when he interpreted Akira’s response as shrugging. The wolf isn’t going to help him, huh? “Come on, I know I was wrong. I need to apologize to her. Won’t you help me?” If this was before, he wouldn’t believe he would soon converse with an actual wolf a
She’s not so bad. Maybe he’ll come to like her. She’s not hateful. And she’s ethereally beautiful. There is that. His men already think he’s a lucky bastard to have her as a mate.She lied, but she admitted it soon after. Is she or is she not lying about everything else? She’s too mysterious to be a complete liar, though. And those silver wolves are mythical and legendary. A descendant of the goddess, huh?Alex tried to unravel every information he has gotten since the wolves’ appearance on his birthday. The timing couldn’t be coincidental, but why his thirtieth birthday, though? What significance does it hold? Mates are normally revealed at eighteenth. Is it because she’s different? A descendant of the goddess. He kept coming back to that.Given the circumstances surrounding her, it doesn’t sound far-fetched, to be honest. Silver wolves. Her own silvery aura. Unknown knowledge only she possesses. This palace and the curse of being trapped here. Of course, he has no way to verify that
When the knob rattled, Alex quickly got up and stood on the side of the door. He saw how her eyes widened and heard her gasp of surprise. He saw how her hand seemed to be pushing the door closed again, so he stuck a foot to prevent that from happening. Luna saw him making that step and she felt even more embarrassed. She did think of slamming the door shut again. She’s not ready to face him yet. She didn’t want him to see her cry again so she decidedly kept her head down, not daring to look at his face. Alex thought he should properly use this chance. “Luna, I’m sorry. I apologize for hurting you. I didn’t mean what I said. Will you forgive me?” She tried to speak, opening her mouth, but no words came out. What is she to say? It’s fine, I forgive you? Should she make it easy for him? How are you supposed to deal with this situation? She has zero experience interacting with people. Her visions are no help. Her knowledge didn’t prepare her for first-hand experience. Her wisdom isn’t th
Didn’t they just make up? She was surprised when he reached out a hand and touched her jaw. Her gaze was questioning. What is he on about?She almost gasped when he bent down and covered her lips with his. It was just a peck, though. It only lasted a couple of seconds. But it was enough. It made her really happy. She looked really silly, eliciting a chuckle from him.He saw the moment her eyes twinkled silver before returning to their normal brown hue. It seemed magical and served as an unconventional experience for him.“Do you like me? We don’t know each other yet. Do you know a lot of things about me already?”“Of course. You’re my mate and you seem like a good person. I do know certain things about you, but they’re not personal. I don’t know what you’re thinking or what you’re feeling. I want to know those things.”He lightly caressed the side of her face. “I don’t think it would be difficult to like you.”“Aren’t you wary of me? Because of the things I know, don’t you find me cre
He didn’t get enough sleep but he still got up early. His men in charge of breakfast woke up around the same time as he did. Alex washed up, changed his clothes and went to see Luna. It would be best to get their things packed in the vehicles so they can leave immediately after the meal. They have a long journey ahead of them.Luna was already dressed when he knocked on her door and she grinned as she skipped towards it. Her excitement was evident. She would finally be leaving this place! Inside her, though, she still felt nervous. Nothing would go wrong, right? She can leave with him, yes?“Where’s your pack? Let’s put them in the vehicle.” He stepped inside her room to retrieve what they packed last night.“Is this all?” He didn’t insist that she packs most of her things. If she needed anything, they can provide it to her at Snow Mountain.“Yes.”“Let’s go, then.” He le
“That was quick. They know how to make decisions, huh?” Carl noted with a smile.“We should get going, too. Let’s go.” Alex commanded and they all boarded their respective vehicles. He assisted Luna into getting in and comfortably sitting on the bench. He sat next to her before his gaze snapped to the guy on her other side.The man rolled his eyes. “I think the two of you should switch seats if you don’t want me next to her.”And so, they did. Luna actually liked being next to the window. She can see outside and enjoy the sceneries. It didn’t take long for them to overtake the silver wolves and Killian, riding at the back of their vehicle, let out a howl.“Did he say something?” The guy sitting next to Alex asked.“This is Alvin.” Alex was forced to introduce him to her.“Not really. He was just wishing them good luck.”“Don’t they ha
They reached the territory near midnight. The silence was almost deafening, albeit littered with the sounds of crickets. Those patrolling the border welcomed them. Alex did inform his parents of the time they would be arriving. He looked at Luna, who’s asleep on his shoulder. Well, they all need rest. Surely, everyone can wait until tomorrow to discuss matters. They drove the vehicles until they reached the pack house. He sighed, seeing his parents were actually waiting. “Alright. Pack up and rest, everyone. You all did well.” He thanked his men and they grunted in reply. Alex carefully untangled himself from Luna. The men to greet their Alpha and Luna before departing for their respective houses. “You shouldn’t have waited. It’s very late already.” Alex greeted them as well before conversing. Sab smiled before pulling him into a hug. “It’s the longest you’ve been gone from home. I was worried.” Alex felt exasperated. He’s a grown-up man, yet his mother still treats him like a ch
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
