Alpha Damien ran from his office to Stephanie's room. He wanted to ensure that he hurt her more. Disbelief at her acceptance of his rejection while also rejecting him was a big blow to his ego.When he reached her room, he barged in and met Stephanie packing her bags. A part of him was distraught, especially his wolf who was against his rejection of their mate but Alpha Damien was too furious to act on his vulnerable side, he went to her and yanked the clothes off her hand and carelessly flung it across the room.Stephanie was too sad to respond to his behavior, she equally was not expecting him to come to her after his rejection and now he was throwing tantrums. She sighed and asked him if she had done something wrong, only to be met with more nastiness from him."Alpha Damien," Stephanie said, her voice filled with sadness, "did I... do something wrong?""You? Wrong?" he scoffed, his tone dripping with disdain. "You've done everything wrong, Stephanie. You've dared to reject me, to
Chapter 006 “Here you are, sorry excuse of a woman. Little wonder the alpha kicked you out, you are all beauty, no character, and no worth. Useless, totally useless.” Stephanie had decided to take a break after working all morning. Since being demoted as a slave she has worked round the clock with little amount of food and more work. “You are a slave, slaves work and they have no choice.” the head of the omegas had told her when she complained of the back-breaking work she had to do. “It is women like you that cause so many problems for other women, you knew the Alpha and Ava were a couple but you had to break them up. Karma only paid you according to your deeds.” she scowled at Stephanie “I..” Stephanie tried to defend herself but stopped it was of no use trying to explain to someone whose mind was made up about you. “You can't even defend yourself because you know you are as guilty as sin, you appear innocent but you are as evil as they come.” she gave her a mean look and le
Chapter 007 “The instruction is to make her as uncomfortable and as unwelcome as possible” Madam informed Liza and Kate, her proteges. Her voice was malicious as she spoke “I hate her guts and holier-than-thou attitude, I will ensure she never gets rest,” Lisa says, her face crumbling into a frown. "She is so lazy and clumsy, she thinks acting the way she does makes her graceful” Kate replies. “I just can't tolerate her” Madam smiles happy to have them do her bidding, personally, she had no problems with Stephanie and thought that her problems were a result of the jealousy others felt towards her, her proteges included. “Get going girls and remember no one must know about this,” she warned “I swear by my mother the secret is safe with me” Kate vowed "same here "Lisa added “For your sake and that of your family, you better not out me. You won't live to tell the story of the nemesis that would befall you all.” Madam sneers are eyes sending daggers that chilled the girls to t
CHAPTER 008 “Thank you for everything Zita, I am forever indebted to you". Stephanie wraps her arms around her friend, her eyes tearing up as she speaks. Zita returned the hug, holding on to her a little longer. She knew behind the brave face was a woman shattered and broken."You're not alone, Stephanie. Remember that," Zita whispered back, silently cursing Alpha Damian for the pain he had inflicted. “I have to leave now,” Stephanie said and walks out of the hospital. She had spent a little longer than she expected and she knew Madam would be mad at her. But Stephanie was too overwhelmed with the feeling inside her. A baby was growing in her womb, something she had always wanted for so long, but yet her feelings were mixed, joy at the pregnancy, a sense of deep sadness for the rejection and the false accusations meted upon her by Alpha Damien. Lost in her thoughts, Stephanie found herself wandering towards the Alpha's mansion. Her steps faltered as she reached the familiar gate
009Ava laughed hysterically as she watched Stephanie leave the mansion. Ignoring the sad looks from the maids, she made her way upstairs her heels echoing the floor."What happened?" Alpha Damien said as she entered the room "I heard shouting. Is everything alright?"Ava's eyes flickered with guilt, but she quickly composed herself, "Oh, it was nothing," she replied dismissively. "Just a clumsy maid who needed to be put in her place. I handled it, Alpha." A cunning smile curved her lips as she repliedAlpha Damien's brow furrowed. Deep down, he sensed that something was wrong, that Ava was not telling the truth. However, he was not in the mood to delve deeper.He sighed, choosing to believe Ava's words for the sake of his own peace of mind. "Alright, as long as it's taken care of," he murmured, a weariness creeping into his voice.Ava approached him, her movements were calculated and deliberate. She sat beside him on the bed, her fingers gently caressing his arm. "Don't worry, Alpha.
Stephanie was confused and started panicking when she felt cramps and a slimy liquid around her vulva. As it slipped down her legs she noticed it was blood.“Blood.” She murmured. Something was definitely wrong and she had to go to the hospital. Without a second thought she started her journey to the hospital, all her concern for the baby growing in her womb. **********“Twins.” Dr Zita said to the shocked mother. “You are pregnant with twins Stephanie” she beamed as she moved the transducer over her stomach. “Look at the screen; those tiny things here are the legs of twin one and the other is for twin two, here is the hard and the fingers. Let me check the gender..oo, it's a boy. Twin one is a boy and the other..wow..a girl.” Excitement bubbled in the Doctor’s voice.Stephanie lay in the bed dumbfounded and scared “Twins.” Her mind screamed, “I will be a mother to twins.” she managed to say after she recovered from the initial shock. She shook her head in amazement from being scare
011Dr Zita gently eased Stephanie on the floor of her office. It was moments like this that she appreciated herself for insisting on having her office carpeted with soft rugs. She bent over Stephanie and checked her vitals, she sighed in relief when she found her pulse, even though it was weak and her breathing felt labored. “Can you hear me, Stephanie?” Dr Zita called out, but she did not respond.She lifted Stephanie up even though she was pregnant with twins her weight was still small compared to hers. Dr. Zita had always been a large woman, probably because she was a hybrid, half human half wolf.“Prepare the theater for surgery. We have an emergency cesarean operation.” Dr. Zita mindlinked her assistants.*************Alpha Damien was feeling restless, he had a nagging feeling that all was not well. But he could not place his fingers on what it was. The thought of Stephanie had plagued him for a while now and only got worse with each passing day. After he rejected her, he ra
O12The memory was a painful one, which he never wanted to relive. As thoughts of Stephanie flooded his mind, he began to have conflicting thoughts about how he handled his marriage, especially his mate. Ava's words had sprung doubts into his mind. He believed that Stephanie might have had an affair with someone else. That was the only reason for her being pregnant. He had not wanted to have a child with her earlier in their marriage, he wanted to punish her, especially after noticing that she yearned for a child. He had been intentional about not releasing his sperm into her, except the evening before his father died. He had been so ecstatic and as he thrusted his bulge in and out of her pussy. He had never forgotten how juicy and tight she had been. He had started to ejaculate when he withdrew from her.Could tiny droplets have entered her…was the child really his? He had not meant to grin but his mouth widened at the thought. Could he possibly become a father?But his father had d
Four years had passed since Stephanie became Luna. In that time, the sorceress' Prophecy about the Eclipse pack had come to pass as the pack had not only flourished but had become the largest and most formidable pack in the entire territory. The transformation was felt in every corner of their land, and a sense of security and pride filled each member.Under Alpha Damien and Luna Stephanie’s leadership, they had found peace and prosperity. Damien’s once arrogant and foreboding feature had become warm and inclusive, embodying the unity of the moon goddess. Stephanie, who once questioned her place in the pack, was now a revered Luna, trusted and respected by all. She carried an undeniable strength, one that had seen her through some of the darkest times and now anchored her family and pack.*********On a cold morning, Damien gathered everyone in the central grounds of the pack community. Standing beside Stephanie, he addressed his pack."Today, I have wonderful news to share," Damien b
“Hey, your break’s over. We need someone clearing tables. Stop lounging around and get back to work,” he snapped, his words cutting through.Hank’s eyes widened, the shock unmistakable as he turned his look back to Cassandra. “Cassandra… you work here?”Cassandra’s shoulders slumped, her eyes dropping to her hands as shame washed over her. “Yes,” she murmured, voice barely audible. “This is my job now, Hank.”Hank’s face softened, his shock giving way to a profound sadness as he took in her worn appearance. He reached out, resting a gentle hand on her arm. “What… what happened to you, Cassandra?”Cassandra took a shaky breath, her voice filled with shame and regret as memories rushed back, memories of the choices she had made, the paths she had chosen, and the arrogance that had blinded her. “I trusted someone,” she began, voice breaking. “A younger man. He made me feel… seen again, like I mattered. But he took everything I had and left. I lost my home, my status… everything.” Her vo
Damien stood on the edge of the field overlooking the lush greenery of parts of the pack territory. He glanced around at the pack members beginning their morning routines and took a deep breath, his mind elsewhere. It was Hank's invitation that lingered in his thoughts—a trip to South Africa, a vacation that had taken on a life of its own in his mind, fueled by encouragement from Stephanie and the children.“I think you should go," Chris had told him one evening, sensing Damien's hesitation. "You've been carrying this pack for years, barely taking a moment for yourself. Let me handle things here for a little while. I owe you that much—and more."Damien had turned to his beta, touched by Chris's words. "Chris, you know since after the whole ordeal we have faced, I planned on never stepping out of the pack for years to come”Chris gave a light chuckle, patting Damien's shoulder with a brotherly confidence. "Damien, with respect, you need to go. Not only for you, but for Stephanie and t
The night had quieted down slightly as the guests had left, but the heart of the pack remained. Under the glow of the moonlight, laughter and music filled the air, while the remaining pack members continued to dance and celebrate. Stephanie and Damien stood together, watching Caleb and Kayla play with the other children, their faces glowing with happiness.Suddenly, Chris approached, his arm around Zita, both of them laughing softly. “Alpha,” Chris began. “Zita and I have been talking, and we… We'd love to exchange our vows and officially become mates tonight, with all of you here to witness it. It feels right on a night like this.”Damien’s face lit up with surprise, then softened with a deep warmth. “Chris, I can’t think of a better moment. No one deserves this more than you. You’ve stood by me, through every storm and every success. It’s an honor to have you both join as mates on this special night.”Chris nodded, visibly moved, and his hand tightened around Zita’s. “Thank you, Da
As the celebration continued into the evening, the guests began forming a line to present their gifts to the new Luna. Stephanie graciously accepted each one, touched by the thoughtfulness behind every present. Her heart warmed as she saw the way her pack and loved ones had come together to make this day so memorable.Albert, Damien's former gamma and new Alpha of knight pack, presented a beautifully crafted silver pendant adorned with the Moon Goddess symbol. “To remind you of your strength and wisdom, Luna,” he said with a smile, bowing his head in respect.Stephanie took the pendant with a smile, deeply moved. “Thank you, Albert. I’ll wear it proudly,” she replied, clasping the pendant close to her heart.Jane approached next, holding a delicate painting of a moonlit forest scene. “It’s a reminder of home,” Jane said softly. “Those times you felt lost, but now you have gotten all you deserve because you are a good person.”Stephanie’s eyes shone with gratitude as she took the gift.
The night before the Luna ceremony, Stephanie lay wide awake, staring at the ceiling, her thoughts swirling with anticipation and excitement. It was hard to believe the day was finally here. She was about to step fully into the role of Luna, something that had once seemed unimaginable. Though she had faced endless trials and tribulations, she had come full circle, returning to the place where she now felt a profound sense of belonging. In the early morning hours, she heard a gentle knock at her door. “Mom?” Caleb’s voice whispered through the door.Stephanie rose and opened the door to find Caleb standing there, looking every bit as anxious as she felt. He began to speak but kept stopping, clearly struggling to find the right words.“Mom, are you… excited?” he finally asked, his voice barely more than a whisper.Stephanie placed her hands on his shoulders. “More than you can imagine,” she replied softly. “I’m nervous too, just like you.” She squeezed his shoulders reassuringly. “But
Stephanie could feel the children’s excitement building as they made their way through the heart of the pack’s community toward Alicia's shop. Though she had initially considered using a human seamstress, she felt a sense of ease in choosing Alicia, a decision that felt more meaningful now. Alicia was not only an incredible seamstress but also a woman who deeply understood the werewolf world and its sacred ceremonies. Stephanie knew that Alicia’s designs would capture the spirit and traditions of the pack, honoring the connection to the Moon Goddess.When they arrived, Alicia’s shop was warm and inviting, filled with bolts of fabric in rich colors and textures that seemed to glow under the sunlight streaming through the windows. Stephanie took in the scene, feeling a surge of pride for her pack and their traditions.The door swung open, and Alicia looked up, her face breaking into a broad smile when she saw them. “Stephanie!” she exclaimed, her voice filled with genuine delight. “And
As they settled down for breakfast, the atmosphere was light with laughter and the occasional clink of silverware. The events of the past few days felt distant, overshadowed by the warmth of family and the security of home. The children chattered excitedly about their favorite dishes, as Stephanie and Damien exchanged glances, each silently grateful for the peace they now had.Just then, Chris and Zita walked in, both of them beaming, a radiance about them that instantly caught Stephanie’s attention. “Hey! Look who’s finally joining us!” she called out with a welcoming grin."Couldn't resist the smell of breakfast, could you?" Damien added, chuckling as he pulled out chairs for them. Chris laughed, nodding his thanks as he and Zita took their seats at the table, the children greeting them with enthusiastic waves and giggles.“We thought we’d pop in to see everyone before the day fully got underway,” Chris said, giving a warm smile around the table. “But truthfully, Zita and I have som
Stephanie stirred, blinking sleepily as the trauma of the previous night’s ordeal washed over her. She glanced beside her to see Damien, Kayla, and Caleb, all nestled close together, their faces peaceful in sleep. The children had insisted on sleeping with them that night, clinging to the safety and warmth they found between them after the terrifying events they'd endured. Stephanie had found no reason to say no; in fact, their closeness had provided her with a rare sense of calm.Taking a deep breath, Stephanie gently placed her hand on Damien’s shoulder, whispering his name as she brushed back the strands of hair that had fallen across his face. "Damien," she murmured softly, her voice barely audible. He blinked awake, his gaze meeting hers, still clouded with sleep. Slowly, she woke the children too, brushing a soft kiss over each of their foreheads. Kayla’s eyes fluttered open first, followed by Caleb’s, both of them stretching and yawning.A heaviness lay on her heart, an ache t
