Ronald's POVTania indeed proved that she was useful to me. I let her go after my Beta managed to convince me again. She made a friend from the Crescent wolves and since then she had been getting accurate updates about Valerie, and that was how I knew that she would be coming to the Nightshade pack. I wasn't invited as I was not really on good terms with the Alpha here, but that was the least of my concern. I came for what was mine.The moment I entered, all eyes turned to me, but I didn't care. I walked straight to Valerie, I could perceive her scent, and I was already salivating. Fuck, she smelled so good.I knew she was aware of my presence too as her body stiffened. It pained me so much that I could no longer speak in her head like I used to before. I missed those times when I could easily control her with no one knowing.Valerie got up suddenly and everyone at the table and around went quiet. She turned to me, looking at me with an unmistakable look of disdain. But damn, she look
Ronald's POVIt's been four days, I was back in my pack but I could not shake off the thoughts of what transpired between Valerie and I, nor the shame that came with it. I was unusually reserved and my Beta and Gamma noticed it. I still could not shake off the uncertainty of what was going to happen with the Alpha council. Every now and then, I fear a summon, but it's already been four days. Did they decide to let it go? I shook my head. Even if Valerie did, Alpha Niklaus would not. I remembered Luna Nadine's threat, a shiver ran down my spine. She would challenge my Alpha title in front of the council.I looked down at my wrists to see fresh marks again, the ones I got early this morning. Alpha Niklaus was fucking her again. It was almost as if they were in some kind of competition to break the world sex record. Bitterness, jealousy, anger, all of those negative emotions rose up my chest and threatened to suffocate me. This was a lot more than my pride now. I just missed Valerie."Yo
Niklaus' POV"Alpha please I promise, it wasn't me. I would never do such against you after you warned me not to." Doctor Sylvia stood before me, begging for her life. I summoned her to my office and she came immediately.Jamie, Damien and Carrie flanked around me, while Valerie sat on my laps. The doctor tried looking to them for help, but she was only met with deathly glares that threatened to rip her apart if she was indeed guilty, especially from Damien and Carrie."Apart from the people here, you are the only person that knows about her. What did I tell you that day?" I asked her calmly, but she knew better than to think that I was being lenient."Alpha... I promise...""What did I tell you that day?" I repeated my question, and she looked at me in fear, like she was staring into the abyss of her own demise."You said a lot of things, Alpha.""Like?""You said I would be dead if I breath a word of this to anyone."I leaned back in my seat as my gaze narrowed at her, while she was
Valerie's POVMy heart thumped violently against my ribcage, like my chest could not contain it, at Nik's sudden confession. I could barely contain the storm sea of emotion brewing inside of me, and all I could do was just break down in front of him. There was no way I could qualify what I was feeling in simple words. The moon goddess just looked for the best man out there and gave him to me as a mate.He suddenly got up, carrying me, my legs wrapped around his waist and my hands around his neck. He held me securely, his hands supporting my bum and my back. I chuckled, thinking that he treats me like a baby sometimes."Where are you taking me?""To the room. You need to freshen up. Your eyes are so swollen."I could not stop my smile. "I thought you had work to do here.""That can wait." He said, before taking me to our room. To be exact, to the bathroom. He had one in his office, but for some reason best known to him, he took me to our suite.I stood aside as I watched him prepare a
"Val, what the hell is going on?" Carrie asked, as she stormed in. She just watched Amelia being dragged away, and she looked confused as hell.I was overwhelmed with so many emotions right now, I couldn't even bring myself to talk. I wasn't even sure that I made the right decision by having Amelia locked up, but I let my anger get the better of me for once.As if Carrie wasn't enough, Damien stepped in, looking all worried. I could tell that Klaus was not home, because he would had been here by now. The Gamma walked to me and cupped my face, his brows knitted in concern."What happened between you two? Did she say something to you?" He asked so tenderly, I felt my heart skip, a lump forming in my throat. His closeness and warmth made him feel like a protective older brother, and I found myself wanting to cry."She knows that I can't have children and she was mocking me about it. I didn't mean to take her out like that, but she...""You did the right thing." Carrie cut me off, making
Niklaus' POVI was in my office, together with my mate, Betas and Gamma. We were discussing the date for the Luna ceremony. I wanted it to happen as soon as possible, but they all said that it would be better to push it to the night of the next full moon which was coming up in the next three weeks."When should we meet the elders and tell them about it?" Carrie asked."I think tomorrow would be perfect." I said, and Jamie sighed, making us turn to him."What if they are not eager... You know, with this recent case of..." He paused, careful to make Valerie feel bad. But Valerie just gave him a carefree wave, as if saying 'say whatever it is, I am not that fragile'.Jamie nodded. "You know, most of them are not in agreement to make you the Luna now. What if...""Fuck the elders!" Damien said, cutting him off. That was the difference between my Beta and my Gamma. While Jamie was cool headed and reasonable, Damien didn't really give a fuck about people he thought were unnecessary. The bot
Warning: Trigger aheadValerie's POV I was yet in another place that I didn't envision that I would ever be- the Alpha council. It was a big building with marble floors, high ceilings, and walls adorned with intricate carvings. The air was thick with the scent of old books and power. I felt a shiver run down my spine as I stepped into the grand hall, surrounded by the most powerful werewolves in the region. The Alpha council was a place where decisions were made, alliances were forged, and fates were sealed. It was almost like the human court of law. The only thing making me not feel out of place was Klaus' constant reassuring presence.We walked into the hall where our cases were to be held. Some of our neighbouring Alphas and Lunas, including Alpha Killian, Alpha Andrew, Luna Nadine were here, amongst others. Carrie, Amara, Florence and Ambrose were also here in support of me. Jamie and Damien stayed back to watch over the pack.There were two rows of seats, and we occupied the one
Niklaus' POVI knew that Valerie had traumas because of her experience with that good for nothing retard, and I had seen her react to it, but never this badly, not even when we had sex. To say that I was scared was an understatement, I was fucking losing my mind. I kept calling and tapping her for a while before she heard me, and even then, she still looked haunted and scared.We were outside the building now, and I hoped this would at least help her make more sense of her surroundings. I kept her down, but didn't let her go. My hand remained firmly on her waist."Valerie, look at me."She did. Her beautiful eyes were clouded with tears, and I felt as if someone dug into my chest and pierced tiny holes in my heart."Baby...""Nik... There is so much blood."I shook my head, my heart heavy in my chest, I could feel it sinking. "No, Love. There is no blood, it's all in your head. You are clean, and it's just me and you here."I was already quick to come up with solution and ideas when i

Valerie's POV I was in front of the mirror trying on another expensive dress yet again. Going shopping with Carrie usually left my heart skipping. Even though I knew that Klaus was the one paying and he was extremely wealthy, I still could not help but worry. But Carrie didn't mind my reaction though, she just shopped anything that she believed would look good on me.Today I would be visiting another pack with Klaus. I was surprised that I wasn't feeling as nervous as I should be, knowing that I would be meeting Alphas, Lunas, Betas and Gammas from different packs. In fact, the prospect of going to a new place excited me. I had only ever been to Blood moon and Crescent wolves packs.This time I was wearing a red dress with slim hands, a V neckline that left out a small amount of cleavage, and slits at both sides of the dress. I chuckled, remembering Ronald. The idiot would had flipped over a thousand times if I wore something like this, afraid that the next pair of eyes that sees me
