Alpha's Regret 098
Alpha Damien couldn't hide his delight as a smile spread across his face when Stephanie agreed to his request to stay a week longer. Relief washed over him. Though a part of him wished they could stay even longer, he knew he had to be grateful for what he was given. One week was enough time, he told himself. Enough time to start making amends, to rebuild what had been broken. He was determined to make their stay memorable, especially for Kayla, who had slowly started to warm up to him, even if just a little.For Stephanie, however, the decision didn’t sit as easily. The moment the words had left her mouth, she started to have a feeling of uncertainty. She had a lot of work waiting for her back in the city, and the more she thought about it, the more anxious she became. The pack held too many memories, both good and bad, and she wasn’t sure if lingering here longer would help her heal or deepen the wounds that had barely begun to close.At noon time, there was a soft knock at the door.

Kayla and Caleb could barely contain their excitement when they heard the news that their mother had agreed to extend their stay at the pack for another week. Kayla, especially, had felt a mix of emotions when they first arrived, but now, after spending some time here, things were starting to feel a little different.Caleb, in his usual enthusiastic manner, had taken it upon himself to give his younger sister a grand tour of the pack grounds. With a broad grin on his face, he grabbed her hand and pulled her along, ready to show her every nook and cranny that he had come to love during his time there."Come on, Kayla!" Caleb beamed, tugging her toward a path that led deeper into the pack’s territory. "There’s so much to see! I have to show you all my favorite places!"Kayla followed closely behind, her excitement growing as they ventured from one place to another. They visited Caleb’s secret hideout in the woods, a small, quiet spot surrounded by tall trees that provided a sense of pea

Alpha Damien walked into the room quietly, his eyes softening at the sight of Stephanie sitting on the couch, arms wrapped around Caleb and Kayla. It always pleased him to see them like this, together, a sense of warmth filling the space that had once felt cold and distant. Their laughter echoed in the room, a sweet melody that made him pause for a moment before stepping fully into their circle.“What’s everyone talking about?” Damien asked, his voice gentle as he approached. He smiled warmly, though his gaze instinctively flicked toward Stephanie, searching her face for any sign of discomfort. He had been trying to be more mindful of her feelings lately.Caleb looked up first, his eyes lighting up at his father’s presence. “We were talking about the Moon Festival coming up,” he said excitedly. “And I took Kayla to the training ground today! Oh, and we went to the creek and the mall too.”Damien’s smile deepened as he shifted his attention to Kayla. “Did you have a good time?” he aske

The next morning, Alpha Damien rose from his bed and went through his morning routine as if nothing had happened. He shaved, bathed, and slipped into his usual attire of jeans and a simple shirt. He walked into the dining area and upon reaching there he took a seat.“Breakfast,” He requested simply, his voice calm. Chef Mark blinked in surprise. It wasn’t just that Damien was asking for breakfast, something he rarely did but the fact that he was asking for it so early. Not to mention, the entire household had whispered amongst themselves about how the Alpha had locked himself away and refused to eat anything at all the previous day.Chef Mark hesitated for only a moment before nodding. “Of course, Alpha,” he replied, quickly moving to prepare a meal. As he worked, he couldn’t help but glance at Damien from the corner of his eye. There was something different about him today.After a few minutes, Chef Mark placed a plate in front of Alpha Damien—brown rice and gravy with four drumstic

Stephanie could hardly contain her excitement as Alpha Damien left her room. Her mind raced with ideas for the children’s activities, and she couldn’t wait to share them. “Zita!” she called, a wide smile on her face as soon as she opened the door to Chris's room where Zita spent most of her daysDr. Zita looked up from her phone, surprised to see her friend in such high spirits. “Stephanie! What’s got you so excited?”Stephanie practically bounced into the room, her hands clasped together. “Damien asked me to plan the children's activities for the Moon Festival! Can you believe it?”Dr. Zita’s eyes widened in surprise before a grin spread across her face. “He did? That’s wonderful! It’s about time he recognized you could contribute. Oh, Steph, I’m so happy for you!”Stephanie sat down across from her, a bit breathless. “I can’t wait to get started. I’ve already got a few ideas, but I wanted to run them by you first. Maybe you could help?”“Of course,” Dr. Zita said, leaning forward.

Alpha Damien called for Zoey, who usually helped with organizing the mothers in the pack, and they respected her. When she arrived at his office, he motioned for her to take a seat. She did so hesitantly, wondering why he needed her. "I need your help," Alpha Damien said, his tone more serious than usual. "I want you to inform the mothers of the pack that there's an impromptu meeting at noon in the hall."Zoey tilted her head slightly, clearly confused. "What's this meeting about, Alpha?""The Moon Festival," Damien replied curtly. "But I’ll let Stephanie explain more when the mothers arrive."Zoey’s brows furrowed. "Stephanie?" she echoed, a slight edge to her voice."Yes, Stephanie," Damien confirmed, his eyes steady on hers. "She’ll be handling the details, and I’ve asked her to address them."Zoey pursed her lips, barely concealing her displeasure, but nodded obediently. "Understood, Alpha."With that, she left the room, quietly stewing as she prepared to carry out his instruction

The next few days passed in a whirlwind of activity as Stephanie and the team of mothers threw themselves into organizing the children's activities for the Moon Festival. The main hall, which had always been used for formal pack meetings, began to transform into a child-friendly wonderland with a theme centered around werewolves, the moon, and the goddess herself.With Chef Mark’s guidance, one section of the hall was set up as a mini-bakery station. Long tables were covered in flour, bowls, rolling pins, and various decorations like sprinkles and icing. The children would have the chance to bake their own moon-shaped cookies and werewolf-themed pastries. Small aprons in different colors were arranged on chairs for each child, adding a playful touch to the entire setup.Across the hall, another station was dedicated to painting. Easels and paints of every imaginable color were placed neatly, with the focus on creating werewolf-inspired art. But the real hit was the face-painting area,

Stephanie made her way to Alpha Damien’s office, her mind still buzzing from the excitement and exhaustion of the past few days. As soon as she knocked, his voice called her in, sounding more relaxed than usual. When she entered, he was sitting at his desk, shuffling through some papers but glanced up with a raised brow.“I wanted to let you know that everything is in place for the children during the festival,” Stephanie said, standing a bit stiffly near the door. “The hall is ready, and we’ve got activities planned for the entire day.”Alpha Damien leaned back in his chair, a small smile tugging at his lips. “I’ve heard nothing but praise,” he said. “The mothers, the staff—they’ve all said you’ve outdone yourself, Stephanie. Seems like the kids are in for a great time.”A soft flush of pride warmed Stephanie’s cheeks. “Thank you,” she replied, genuinely pleased with the feedback. She hesitated, unsure if there was anything more to say, before nodding and turning toward the door.Al

Alpha's Regret 207
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
Alpha's Regret 203
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
