A/N: I won't give any excuse for the delay. But I can assure you that I won't be taking any long breaks this year.
Frederick*Instead of waiting alone for Luna, I stood there, holding Nico. Not only was I shielding him from Monica Moretti's attention, but Nico also refused to leave my side.Mom tried to take him away, but he turned his head and clung to my neck.‘Keep an eye on that woman,’ I mind-linked all my warriors as the announcement of Nicole’s entry was made after her arrival. I couldn’t spoil Nicole’s important day by ignoring her, right?“Nico, Mom is here,” I whispered in his head, and I pointed my hand in the direction of the big door. Before I could even see her, her scent had already hit my nose.I forgot to breathe when my eyes landed on her. It was surprising how she managed to seduce him every single time.And like a horny dog, I wanted to devour every inch of her body after this ceremony was over.There was a time when all I could do was look at her secretly. And then I could do it in front of everyone.A wave of flashbacks hit as I watched her walk toward me, holding her father
Frederick*Before I could do anything, I already saw that witch making her way toward us. I was positive that she wouldn’t do anything to harm anyone physically, but sometimes words hurt more than any weapon. ‘Can I go and meet her?’ Nicole mind-linked.‘Don’t ask for my permission when you are well aware of my answer. You’re my Luna. Do whatever you want,’ I responded, caressing her cheek fondly. I didn’t want to ruin her mood, but we couldn’t agree on everything.Everyone in the family was wary of that one person.I inhaled and exhaled to calm myself when meeting the guests. Generally, I should have done with my Luna, but...“In that case, let’s greet our guest first. I’m sure Nonna can wait. It’s Nico’s first appearance in public, right?”Nico slapped his mother, flapping his hands happily.Just like I had expected, Nicole confidently stood in front of other Alpha couples without getting nervous or scared, while Nico, being Nico, sometimes stared at them with a poker face and som
Nicole * He wasn’t in a good mood, and of course, I was indirectly the reason behind it. To be honest, I was shocked to learn what Nonna had done. I wasn’t expecting her to stoop this low. “Excuse me. Nico is awake and crying," I said with a smile as I excused myself from the guest. I had no idea why, but everyone was damn too interested in knowing about me. The woman who rose from an omega to a luna had wrapped Alpha Frederick around her little finger. “Of course! I can say that he is fussy about the people around him. Therefore, he must be looking for you.” A few of them also indirectly tested my knowledge. But I was fully prepared for this battle, even without Frederick’s support. “Thank you for understanding.” I dashed toward Nico’s room, where Nonna was. “I need to talk with you,” I said in a low tone, looking at her. “But…” “Right now, Nonna.” She started to stand when I spoke again. “You can give a goodbye kiss to Nico if you want.” She narrowed her eyes, looking at me w
Five years later,*Nicole*“Nico, Lico!! "Come inside!" I yelled, watching Nico stand on the tree's branch and Lico sits under it with his book in his hand.Lawrence Elijah Glint. Our second son. We call him Lico as his nickname because his name is also long, like that of his older brother. Both my boys were unexpected and unplanned, but I didn’t regret having them.In fact, it was a positive experience to already have two pups when I was still twenty-six.Unlike Nico, Lico was a carbon copy of his father, including his hair and eyes. It was a little irritating that I gave birth to both of them, but none of them looked like me.‘Soha, bring them inside. It’s their snack time,’ I mind-linked Soha, who was looking after them. I wondered where Coco was. These three boys tend to stick together most of the time.*Soha*“Master Nico, please come down. You might fall,” I said with tension. He grinned and started jumping on the tree branch when he heard me.“I’m Nicholas Frederick Glint, S
Felicity*I smiled, looking at myself in the mirror. I had worn a pink satin draped tail floor-length gown, featuring a bodycon corset and thigh-high slit, and matching golden heels.This was the last time I was going to fit inside this beautiful gown because I doubted that after pregnancy I would be this slim. I smiled again at that thought.I couldn’t believe that I was pregnant and that Massimo was going to be a father now. My chosen mate, Massimo De Luca, was the Alpha of the Crescent Moon Pack. And I had been in love with him from the moment I met him; I didn't even know the meaning of love. So, when he asked me to marry him, I didn’t think twice before saying yes. Only to realize that Massimo wanted just a perfect Luna for his pack, nothing more than that.I knew that discovery hurt me a lot, but by putting on a happy face, I did what Massimo expected of me in the hope of him falling in love with me someday, and it had been two years since that incident.I didn’t know whether he
Felicity*‘Dad brought you to my pack from the orphanage. Do you think that she could be your sister? Elder or younger?’I never felt bad whenever Massimo mentioned ‘my pack’ instead of ours, but for some reason tonight, I couldn’t take his words in a positive way. Maybe I was not able to use my mind properly and was scared to lose him.‘I’m the only child of my parents. No need to compare me with your mate,’ I couldn’t help but snap at him, and I gave a small nod to Luna of the neighbouring pack with a smile.I felt his eyes on me, but I looked at him with a smile. ‘I just thought... but never mind, you're too blinded by jealousy to understand anything. But what I don’t understand is why. I never promised you... He stopped when he realised something.‘I hope you aren’t pregnant yet, are you?’‘What is going on in your mind, Imo?’ Instead of answering his question. I finally asked him directly. I wasn’t a fool who couldn’t see how his eyes weren’t leaving his mate until I snapped.‘F
Felicity*I returned to the mating ball because of the responsibilities of the Luna of the pack. Even though these are the last few days of this role from now on, I wouldn’t abandon it.I checked the time before texting our family lawyer’s number to meet me at the packhouse for the preparation of the divorce agreement tomorrow. I knew he would keep this to himself, so I wasn’t worried about this news traveling like fire in the forest.I personally congratulated those pack members who found their mates while cheering for those who couldn’t find their mates tonight.Soon, Massimo joined me, and we acted like a perfect couple to avoid any gossip.*"You know that I can sense your feelings even though you’re good at faking your smile," He said while dancing. Since we were doing the Waltz, we had to come close to each other every few seconds, and his closeness was affecting me. It was breaking the tough face that I had maintained."Your point?"He hissed before speaking, "You started show
Felicity*After the three-hour drive, I finally reached Massimo’s Grandpa’s cottage, where he was spending the last couple of years of his life in memory of Grandma.Others would learn about all this divorce and rejection sooner or later. I wanted him to learn about this from me because Massimo didn’t know how to talk with his Grandpa because they never got along, especially after Massimo chose me as his chosen mate.Grandpa wanted him to choose anyone but me."If you’re here to say Goodbye for the last time, then say it and leave." I heard his voice from the kitchen as I walked inside his small and beautiful cottage. I wasn’t eyeing his homely cottage, but I loved the place where it was built between a field of colorful flowers, along with the way it was maintained by the one and only Grandpa. "If you’re planning to ask for this cottage as alimony, then remember that this belongs to me, not Simo." Finally, he came out of the kitchen with a spatula in his hand."Don’t worry, Grandpa.

Before I could even see her, her scent had already hit my nose.I forgot to breathe when my eyes landed on her. It was surprising how she managed to seduce him every single time.And like a horny dog, I wanted to devour every inch of her body after this ceremony was over.There was a time when all I could do was look at her secretly.

Nicole Upon my return, I observed Nico relishing his massage before he drifted off to sleep, his tiny body enveloped in relaxation. I knew I would only get three to four hours before he was awake again. So, without wasting much time, I quickly returned to my Luna duties. “The cloth merchant is here, Luna,” Soha informed. “Serve him the beverages. I'll be joining him in the living room. I inhaled deeply, trying to calm myself down. It was my first time dealing with a merchant alone. “Greeting, Alpha Alee...” When he raised his head, he stopped, only to find me instead of Mom. My official Luna ceremony is still pending, so it's not his fault. “I’m Nicole Pearl Glint. Welcome to my pack, Merchant Paul Scott.” “Greetings Lady Nicole,” he greeted, looking down at me. I had encountered numerous individuals with that look and attitude since my marriage to Fredrick, so this was not unfamiliar to me. However, I had to set a clear example for him to follow. Insulting me would be more li
Nicole*I sniffed with my eyes closed and realized that he wasn’t around. Groaning, I opened my eyes to check on Nico. My body ached because of the wild sex last night, which lasted till dawn. A wide smile appeared on my lips as I watched my peanut sleep peacefully in front of me.He had grown up so much in the past two months. His weight was almost double when he was born. Nowadays, he is learning to take a side turn. And just like him, I was growing every day by learning new things as a mother and Luna of this pack.Placing a kiss on his forehead, I carefully left the bed.He was developing a sixth sense to wake up from his sleep whenever I left his side to do some work. I finished my personal business as soon as possible by keeping the washroom door open.When I returned, I found he was already awake and was looking around.“Like father, like son!! You both sense my absence immediately, don’t you?” I caressed his chin as I asked him, and he responded with a toothless smile.As per
Nicole * I smiled as I watched Alpha Frederick converse with my dad following his joint birthday celebration. It was a simple celebration, consisting of a homemade cake and a lavish dinner that included all of his favorite foods. “Alpha Aleena, where should I go?” Mom stopped Beta Logan and pointed her hand toward me, confusing me a little. "Luna Nicole is the official Luna of the pack, despite the fact that her Luna ceremony is pending." So, from now onwards, start reporting everything to her.” Beta Logan nodded at her command. I gulped nervously at her words. Soon, Mom would hand over all her duties to me. It was time for my examination, which I had been preparing for throughout my pregnancy. I felt someone's eyes digging a hole in my head. I looked around, only to find her cold eyes looking at me. Right! I didn’t have to express my emotions openly to people around me. I learned this during my Luna Etiquette class. "As a new mother, she won't be able to move around frequently,
Frederick*It was Nicole’s handwriting, but I knew who made her write this to convey her message. I looked at my little mate, who stopped jumping and pouted.“I wasn’t going to do anything without talking to you because Nico is equally yours as much as he is mine." When I didn’t say anything, she peered into my green eyes. “Please don’t spoil your mood today. Can we continue this topic tomorrow?”“Please?”“Hmm,”With that, we walked out of the room together. When we were out of the hospital, we saw almost all of the pack members on the ground.‘What’s going on?’ I asked Logan.‘Most of them have been roaming in the pack from the moment they learned Luna was in labor. They wish to see Alpha's heir and give him their blessing. If you don’t want that, I can ask them to leave. He responded. Nicole nudged, asking me the same thing.‘Nico is so lucky to receive blessings from so many people. I think we should introduce him to everyone from far away. Because I don’t think he will feel comfo
Frederick*I was so mad and pissed at Mom for not answering my one question that I didn’t ask the other questions related to it. I was beyond shocked when Mom told me that she had given birth to a daughter and that she breastfed me.As much as I was tempted to ask more from her about this incident, which was my plan until we both settled in the park of the hospital, Now, I was in a dilemma about whether to ask something from her or not. I didn’t want to rub salt on her past.“I accidentally reached there because I wanted to stay alone for a while. That was when I heard your loud cry. I followed it, thinking maybe you could be my pup, hoping for a miracle, and then I landed in an orphanage. When I went closer to the pup who was crying that loud, my eyes landed on a boy who wasn’t ready to drink milk from the bottle."“When I realised that you weren’t the one I was looking for, I decided to leave. That was when I heard the person looking after you yelling at you for crying nonstop and
