The next morning, Luna wasn’t pleased when they were about to leave. He was daring her to drive the vehicle and she adamantly refused.

“Come on, just try it. It’s simple enough.”

“No. I’d rather not go if you’re going to force me.”

They’ve been going back and forth since earlier, trying to convince the other. She was close to snapping and uttered such words. They both froze. Each of them felt guilty for different reasons.

Alex sighed and ran his hand through his hair. “Alright. Just get in. I’ll drive.”

It was such a bad start and they were silent for a while. Luna knew herself. She’s not skilled enough to drive. She didn’t even have experience behind the wheel. She didn’t want to risk crashing the pack’s asset into a ditch or worse, into a human.

Alex reached for her hand, making her feel relieved.

“I’m sorry.” She felt useless again. She realizing he was simply encouraging her to learn how, but she flatly declined. She should be more willing. It would be good for herself, too.

    “I hope you were comforted by thoughts of me.” He didn’t dare to tease her, not when he knew she’d been on her own and was likely lonely.Luna glanced at him and smiled. She was. He was her goal. She knew she would eventually meet him.“When you arrived at the pack, you must have had a hard time adjusting. I’m sorry I was of no help. I feel terrible about it now.” Even though he has made a blanket apology for everything he did wrong, apologizing for specific things seemed to be the right thing to do.“I have expected it. Actually, I have already seen some of it. I knew how you and the others would react upon learning about my existence. And I understand. I would doubt myself, too, if I were in your shoes.”Alex considered her words and her expression. She seemed indifferent, but he’s not inclined to believe it.“Still, I’m sorry.”“Hmm.” She’s not sure what else to say.“How about now? You didn’t look like you were comfortable around other people. You seemed to be tolerating their pre

    Her look changed into amusement. “I’ve heard even mates could still be rejected . . . isn’t that correct?”His expression became dark as he pulled her closer to him. “Where did you hear that? Different packs may have different beliefs. Here in Snow Mountain, such a thing is frowned upon. There’s a belief that when mated wolves reject the other, they are cursed to be alone forever. Second chances don’t apply to them. It’s the same with fated mates who reject the other. Only the rejected mate will get a second chance. The one who rejected the other wouldn’t.”Luna became thoughtful after his explanation. “So, you wouldn’t reject me?”“No! I would never do such a horrible thing. You are mine and mine alone.” He growled those statements, his possessiveness rising to the fore.Her heart started beating fast when his gaze began to fill with desire. He moved atop her

    Alex didn’t dare to take her far away. They stayed near the lake and ran the perimeter several times. Her wolf acted childish and excited, even diving into the lake for a bath. Once, her loud howl echoed the grounds, making him grimace. He quickly informed his father that it was just Luna. It would be bad if male warriors suddenly showed up to check them out. He might be forced to fight them if he’s not careful.More than an hour passed before she seemed to slow down.“Let’s go back. It’s already late and you need your rest.” He shifted back and urged her to do the same.The silver wolf stealthily approached him and licked his face.“Do you know how to?” He inquired, already expecting she might not.The wolf tilted its head before growling lightly.“It’s alright. You’ll be able to do it. Just imagine yourself returning to your human form. It’s really that simple. Come on. Try it.” He encouraged her and her wolf paced around him. It looked like she’s having difficulty. He decided to be

    The next few weeks, Luna resumed her activities and Sab helped in reintroducing her to pack members. She’s now Alex’s mate, after all. The young woman joined the other in dispensing her responsibilities as Luna.“These might not be what you’ll do in the future, but I’m sure there would be similarities.” Sab gently smiled at her, obviously trying to be encouraging.Luna nodded, understanding what she meant. “We’ll still have a pack of our own, so I’m sure something like this would become my responsibility.”“You’re right. You should be more comfortable interacting with others. You should care for your members and their welfare. They can only rely on you and your mate, as their leaders. The elders, women and children will be your responsibility.”“I understand. It’s not that I don’t care. I’m still inexperienced. I’m not used to doing such things yet.”“Hmm, how much time is there? It’s still best to be prepared much earlier. What do you think?”“You’re right. We’ll do that.” Sab knew t

    “What happened?” He turned to Luna, expecting her to have answers.“Damn. They’re huge!” Someone exclaimed, in awe of their size and color. They stood tall and were quite majestic. Even Tyler looked surprised and admired them.“Nothing happened. This is how they have always been.” Luna replied to Alex.He squinted at her, wondering why she hasn’t mentioned it before.Feeling his gaze on her, she glanced at him with a somewhat guilty expression.“There’s one more thing.” She decided it’s best to tell him before he sees them.“What is it?” He raised an eyebrow, sensing her serious tone.Her tone remained soothing, somewhat pleading, as she responded, “No one died. You didn’t lose any of the wolves. They simply disappeared, just like I did. They’re back now.”He was stunned for a good while before he was able to properly process what she just said. As if to confirm her statements, he looked towards the wolves who have now moved closer. He began counting and caught his breath when he ende

    “Isn’t that what we all do already? We train our pack members so they will be prepared for any attack, no?”“Yes, but with different expectations. This time, you must consider the enemy’s identity. Lycans. They’re much stronger than ordinary wolves. With that in mind, do you think your pack will survive an attack from them?”It was a hypothetical question, but vexing all the same. The alpha’s expression turned serious as he pursed his lips.He has heard about their attacks from years ago. He did hope his pack will be spared. They’re not at that level yet. His face darkened.“What’s your source? Where did you hear these things? They haven’t made a move in a long while. What if they have already died out? This threat you speak of, does it exist?” His tone carried a challenge. He’s not about to believe anyone’s word regarding a serious matter.Alex turned to Luna. What should they say?“Soon, they will become active again. A year won’t pass before you hear of some horrors. It would be to

    Jared smirked. If it wasn’t for the things Luna told him which came to pass, he wouldn’t dare to believe it either. His mate will be giving birth soon and he wanted to be there for her.Keith invited Alex to speak but he eventually decided not to. Luna tilted her head as she seemed to be struggling with a vision. She was frowning while spacing out. Alex could now tell what’s happening to her and he patiently waited while guarding her. He didn’t rush her this time.“How are you feeling?” He asked when she began shaking herself off, wanting to make sure she’s doing alright.“I’m fine.” She leaned into him with a smile as she took a deep breath. It’s not exactly exhausting. The experience simply disorients her whenever it happens.“Rest. Just ignore all these people.”She almost chuckled at his statement, but she tried to do what he asked.On their way home, Tyler cou

    So, the couple became busy going around the pack and talking to his friends, trying to convince them to start a new life with a new pack. The mated ones with kids are difficult to convince. Understandable. He should have expected that it would be the single guys who would be more than willing to support him. Two couples without kids were also feeling adventurous. He was quite happy with the result and Luna was proud of him.“You’re quite ambitious, aren’t you?” Nathan noted.“What did your father say?” Ian interjected and asked.“Stupid. He won’t be here convincing us if the alpha didn’t approve.”Alex’s lip twitched as they questioned him.“I was meant to build my own pack. I know it’s a great challenge. Here is where I’m meant to start. If I can’t convince some of you, how am I going to convince people from other packs?” He briefly reasoned.“You have a point. Well, are you sure you want me in your pack? What will it be called?” Ian responded, quite interested of a new place to prov

    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
