“Open the cell.” Ivorie ordered the guard that was stationed outside Jenna's cell. She had asked the previous guards the location of this cell.

Another guard entered the cell and soon came out with Jenna. Ivorie almost winced at her appearance.

Her whole body was bruised with dirt and her once beautiful and elegant dress was now tattered like that of a beggar. She had a look of contempt on her face.

Ivorie sighed, she couldn't blame her. She was innocent and Regan just had to punish her to satisfy his belligerent self.

“Duchess…” Ivorie began but was interrupted.

“Thank you, Luna, for getting me out. I think I should take my leave now.” Jenna said in a low voice.

She didn't wait for any other word from Ivorie as she limped away. Ivorie released a deep breath as she watched her leave.

Ivorie left the dungeons and headed for the garden. It was still as beautiful as the last time she was there. It seemed someone had been watering the flowers in her absence. The flowers were intact and bl

    “Who's this ugly old man?” Ivorie asked with arched brows as they both stood before a picture frame. In Ivorie's mind, the man on the frame was just so ugly.Regan bursted a short laugh. Ivorie's eyes widened as she had never heard him laughing so sincerely before. It sounded real and she felt a bit dejected for not seeing it.“That is Alpha Ronald, Alpha of Moon Stone pack. Make sure you don't talk about his distorted face in his presence.” Regan said with a tone of amusement as he walked away.Ivorie stayed there, still looking at the ugly picture. She scoffed before following Regan to the next frame.He had been showing her various pictures of important dignitaries for almost an hour. Ivorie wouldn't deny the cramps pulsating through her legs and back. But she also couldn't deny that this was fun.They had gone through Alpha's, Dukes, Lunas and Betas of different packs, most of which were under the rulership of Regan's pack.Ivorie wondered if any of those packs were happy with Reg

    “Or what?” She demanded.With a deep growl, Regan's grip around her neck tightened, forcing her to choke. More growls escaped his mouth as he pushed her backward till her back was against the wall.“I'm going to tear your face to shreds!” He growled menacingly. As Ivorie glared back at him, it seemed the hue of his eyes deepened. The blue one had taken a sharper shade and the red was dripping of colour. Yet, Ivorie remained sturdy, she didn't flinch nor fear.“You can't hurt me. I am your Luna and besides, you said it yourself just earlier ago. You are my husband and no harm can come to me from you, or have you forgotten your own words Alpha?” She asked in a singsong tone.It struck a chord in Regan and he bared his teeth, growling slowly. He wanted so badly to snap her fragile neck, to just flick his hand and be done with it. But the restraint, the confines he was put in by his wolf.‘Don’t you dare hurt her!’ Boris growled within him.It wasn't like Boris could stop him from making

    Silence instantly descended on the dining hall. Everyone stopped eating and had their gazes turned to Ivorie. Ivorie watched Jenna who had a wicked smirk plastered on her face.But Ivorie didn't plan on being embarrassed today. This wasn't her pack anymore, where she would be treated like trash and without importance. Now she was a Luna and she was going to act like a Luna.A confident smile curled up her lips and she leaned backward into her chair.“I don't remember you being my mother, Duchess? So why ask?” She asked with an air of confidence billowing around her.Jenna's lips twitched, glancing at everyone else around the table. It was apparent that she also didn't want to lose face in the presence of the nobles.“But..we have to be sure, Luna. An heir is an important aspect of a royal life.” She said.“I'm well aware, Duchess and I don't need you to remind me of that.” Ivorie retorted.“But it doesn't look like there is any progress. I mean…everyone knew when the Alpha had you thr

    “Here it is Luna.” Grace muttered, in her hands was a tray ladened with a glass of water and a small bowl.Ivorie, who was sitting on a chair in her room, didn't immediately answer her. Her mind had wandered off thinking about what had happened earlier at the throne room.Those peasants had tried to kill her. In some packs culture, that was a terrible omen, a spiritual taboo. What could cause the people to want their leader dead by their own hands?“Luna?” Grace called with a louder tone, successfully bringing Ivorie back to reality. The Luna looked at her handmaid with a blank face.“You have to relax Luna.” Grace said encouragingly. She placed the tray on the table and knelt before Ivorie.As she began to carry the small bowl, Ivorie raised her hand at her. “That's okay, I’ll do it myself.” She said curtly.Grace arched her brows, “Are you sure Luna?” She asked.Ivorie gave her a wry smile and nodded. Grace sighed before standing up and walking out of the room.Ivorie took a glass o

    The sun was beginning to set upon the Cresthowl pack lands.At the castle gates, Regan and Estan walked, carrying their hunting gears over their shoulders. They also had different killed animals in their grasp. Their hunting expedition seemed to have been fun.Before they entered the palace, the gears and games were collected from them by the servants.Regan retreated to the first room where the explosion had occurred. He didn't want to deal with Ivorie and her tantrums yet.The atmosphere in the pack house was solemn; each and every servant and maids were going about their duties and there was no noise or unnecessary chatter that Regan detested.He happily strode to his bedroom, entering the closet to pull off his gear.He then headed straight for the bathing room. As he approached it, he hoped he wouldn't meet Ivorie.And he was lucky, because there was no one there. He dipped himself into the bathtub, sighing as the chill ran encompassed his skin. He had deliberately chosen the wat

    Ivorie gasped in shock as her eyes landed on Regan. The book dropped from her hands immediately and she quickly reached for the blanket on the shelf next to her. Pulling it over her chest, she used it to cover up her half-nakedness.“What are you doing here?” She asked in a high pitched tone, her eyes dripping with anger.Regan arched a brow at her, “This is my room?” He pointed out.Ivorie's shoulder slumped. She was stupid to ask that question. She had just taken her bath and hadn't fully gotten dressed. Being busy with thoughts of her pack and Cresthowl pack's past indifferences and how she didn't know about it until now, kept her busy.“I didn't know you were back.” She mumbled, walking slowly towards the closet.Regan's eyes followed her, still intrigued by her body which was only barely covered by the blanket.Her eyes kept focused on him as she moved backwards. As a result, she tripped over a small wooden box and fell backwards with a scream.Regan muffled a laugh, averting his

    Ivorie looked at him in horror. She instantly put on a frown, overshadowing her initial fear.“And you said no harm would come to me from you.” She muttered, feeling proud to be able to use his own words against him.Regan's eyes darted around hers, as if searching for something in them. His orbs held mixed feelings that Ivorie couldn't quite understand. She could see rage in them, the urge to hurt her, but she also saw something else, something warmer. No, that's not Regan, he wasn't warm.“You're bold, little princess.” He mumbled, a smirk tugging his lips.Ivorie, who could feel his breath on her face, replied, “I am the Luna after all.”Regan chuckled slightly. “And you don't think to be submissive when need be?” He asked, his eyes boring into hers.Trying not to get lost in his eyes, she answered, “Let's hope I won't need to.”Abruptly, Regan pushed himself away from her and that was when Ivorie realised how their bodies had been pressed together. She found herself wanting him cl

    “What is she doing here?”Her eyes dilated as she watched the duchess in awe. This was so daunting to her, her eyes held shock in them.But she was also curious, “What is this Duchess doing in our bedroom?” She asked herself again, inaudibly.The Duchess, Jenna, glanced around, her head pivoting left and right. She was apparently checking if there was anyone there. Ivorie was forced to retreat backwards into the dark passage.She peeped again and saw Jenna snuck towards the closet. There was nothing in her hands, so Ivorie couldn't guess that she wanted to put something there. ‘Then, what is she going to do?” She asked herself in thought as she watched Jenna keenly.Jenna finally disappeared into the closet and Ivorie's head instantly began to do a countdown. “I'm going to wait for her to come out,” She whispered decisively. “I have to see what she's up to, but if I come out now, she’ll suspect where I came from. And the last thing I want is for her to discover my new secret passage

    Regan stood before his great-grandfather’s mighty statue which was situated at the far corner of the castle wide compound. It was the only statue in the castle and Regan knew it was the former Alpha's achievements that won him a statue. Achievements that none of Balor’s descendants were yet to uphold.Many thoughts ran through Regan's mind as he stood with his arms behind him. He had just ordered the scribes to send messages to invite his allied Alphas –those that were left on his side– to an important meeting at the castle. The purpose of the meeting was only for one single aim –to capture the assassin. He was their only hope to uncover their enemies and understand their motives fully.Footsteps intruded his thoughts and he adjusted his posture while sighing.“Alpha, the letter have been sent.” Elder Callen informed as he walked up to Regan's behind. The Alpha simply nodded.There was silence for a while before Elder Callen broke it. “Do you believe it is of best interest not to tell

    Everyone watched as the little girl - Evangeline, as Clawn had referred to her as - went mute. She still had a deep scowl on her face, which in reality, made her look cute rather than angry.“You will NOT speak to our guest in such manner!” Clawn ordered in a grave tone, his sharp and menacing glare rooted on his daughter’s face.She, however, didn't give the reaction Ivorie had thought she would. She instead fisted her hands, turned around and dashed off. A guard went running after her.Silence still reigned around the table, silence that carried awkwardness.“Let the feast proceed.” Clawn said in a low and unhappy tone before picking his spoon.‘Well, that wasn't awkward.’ Maia remarked within Ivorie, sarcasm dripping from her calm voice.‘I’m going to ask Clawn what this is all about.’‘I believe a father and daughter issue should be solved by them alone.’ Maia interjected.‘Does this sound like a mere father-daughter quarrel? It obviously has something to do with me and if there's

    “So he has a daughter.” Grace stated as she walked into the chamber offered to Ivorie after her. The latter slumped on the bed and exhaled heavily while Grace dropped the small bags she brought along with her. As they had been informed by Alpha Clawn, the rest of them would be brought by his servants.“I do recall him mentioning his family once, but it didn’t occur to me that he ever had a daughter.” Ivorie expressed, her gaze sweeping around the room they were in. Massive wardrobes, extravagant candle chandelier, lush rug – the usual furniture expected to be found in a proper castle chamber. Although a bit smaller in size when compared to her chamber in Cresthowl pack, Ivorie couldn’t complain. Alpha Clawn had helped them enough and she wouldn’t worry him about a change in accommodation. That would be an act of ingratitude.“You must be tired, Luna. I will request for a bath to be prepared for you so you can have your bath. Then you can have some food…” Grace ranted on as she dropped

    ‘’Luna, we have to remain quiet!’’ Grace whisper-yelled, holding Ivorie’s arm and desperately trying to keep her calm.Ivorie, however, was writhing in pain. Her hands clenched tightly that her veins popped and her teeth gritted as she tried to no avail to suppress her painful scream. She faced her handmaid and looked into her worrisome eyes.‘’I’m in…pain…’’ Ivorie cried through her gritted teeth.Panic surged through Grace and she fumbled with Ivorie's hands. Suddenly, a male voice from outside bellowed. ‘’You bloody liar! How many women are with you? Answer me!’’Grace’s face went pale immediately. She remembered Alpha Clawn’s words about how the rogues won’t know they were in the carriage if only they kept mute. Now that possibility is gone. She knew she had to find a way to protect herself and the Luna.Outside the carriage, two bulk-sized men stood before a more lanky but taller one. Of course, the taller one was the coachman riding the carriage while the two other men were rogu

    Regan stood on the balcony of his chamber and watched as Ivorie entered the carriage. He watched as her handmaid came rushing to her front and kneeling before her.He was the one who had quickly informed the handmaid of Ivorie's departure. It was an impromptu departure and so most people in the castle weren't aware of it, including Grace. Regan had thought that she would need a friendly company with her in a strange land. And he knew she and her handmaid had grown into that friend zone. He also noticed that she was a very loyal servant and wouldn't leave Ivorie's side.Regan's heart bled when the carriage left, his wolf wailed and pushed him to stop her from leaving. To hold her to himself and embrace her forever. But he couldn't do that, he couldn't be selfish. She had to leave, not only for her safety, but also for the safety of those still in the castle.“Alpha,” a voice called him from behind and he snapped out of his saddening thoughts. He quickly wiped the drop of tear that tric

    It was the following morning, the day Ivorie was to leave Cresthowl pack with Alpha Clawn. She wasn't running but playing her part to keep what the enemies wanted away from them.Ivorie had woken early that day and taken her bath. After dressing in her favourite obsidian green flowery gown, she ordered some servants to help her pack the necessary stuffs she wanted to take with her. All the while, she had a sulky look on her face.She waited outside her bedroom as she watched the servants do their work. Her mind had wandered off to the possibilities of a good and comfortable life in Blackwood pack.She knew she wouldn't be able to see Regan everyday. She wouldn't even be able to see him at all for moons or as long as she needed to stay there.‘I cannot believe you agreed to stay away from mate.’ Maia reprimanded her from within. She had been doing that all night, robbing ivorie of a sound sleep. Not that the latter could sleep anyway.‘It is for the best, maia.' ivorie said to her wol

    The sun was beginning to set upon the Moonbeam pack lands. Alpha Johan and his team of conspirators had been waiting at the pack border for the whole day.“How long more do we have to wait till you believe that your mercenaries failed?” Nick asked in a tone of frustration. He was standing next to Alpha Johan as they both watched warriors training below from the building they were in.Without facing him, Alpha Johan responded, “I’ve told you countless times, Commander, this part of the job requires patience. Which you clearly lack.”Nick scoffed, “You know to be honest, when I initially saw those werewolves you hired, I noticed that they wouldn't be as professional as you said they were.” He pointed out tauntingly.Alpha Johan chuckled but it was beta Jordan who spoke. “Be careful with your words to the Alpha, Commander. He is an Alpha and when he says the mercenaries are good, they are.” The beta stated sternly.Nick, however, remained unfazed and scoffed again. “And how many times ha

    Everyone in the hall gazed at Alpha Clawn with awry eyes. They couldn't believe what they had just heard from him.“Would you care to elaborate, Alpha Clawn?” Elder Callen requested.Clawn sighed heavily before looking straight at Regan. “That night of the Winter Ball, I saw the face of the man that attempted to murder me.” He announced, bringing gasps into the hall from the members.Alpha Clawn eyes darted around before landing on Regan again. “This should be confidential. There may be ears on the walls.” He stated sternly.Regan nodded before glancing at the guards around. “Leave,” and at once, all the guards marched out smoothly.All the Elders and nobles had their interest piqued now. They sat at the edge of their seats, waiting for Clawn's story to continue.“I believed that if I came out that I wasn't dead, it might be a bit difficult to know who my killer really was, or why he had wanted me dead.” Clawn continued. “So I kept the news of my death the way it was and asked my men
