Damien's POV I waited patiently for Sylvia to be done, before I entered the room again, my body rigid with tension. I watched her- the love of my life lying down there, looking so helpless and frail and my heart did a little compression exercise as I forced out a breath.Amara had always been a lively person, so seeing her like this was new to me, and I hated it with everything in me. I wanted to find the bastard that did this to her and cut them down limb by limb.I walked to her, reminding myself that she was not mine and I should mind her boundaries.I took a chair to the front of her bed, just watching her and cursing myself. Yes, I do care for a lot of injured people in the pack, but it was different with her and I could not help myself.I hated myself for being this way. Why was I in love with a girl that belonged with someone else? It had been years and I still could not help myself when it comes to her. Maybe I would consider that therapy thing that humans do, because at this
Valerie's POV I had just finished checking on Carrie and Amara for the hundredth time. I was stepping out of Carrie's room, when someone I didn't expect approached me- Frederic."Hey."I smiled at him. "Hi."He seemed to be struggling to find the words to say to me, but eventually he sighed and spoke up. "I wanted to talk to you."I could not help my surprise. He would rather stay in his room all day than talk to anyone, not even his brothers. "Oh, what do you want to talk to me about?"He looked around nervously. "Can we talk about this privately? Maybe take a walk or something.""Or we can use my office." I offered, and he nodded.Klaus had given me the Luna office, but I wasn't using it yet, until I officially become Luna.When we entered, Frederic didn't waste time before speaking."This is about my mom." He said, as he looked away, not wanting to hold my gaze.The smile on my face fell. Amelia had been locked up for days now, and it was totally up to me to let her go. I intend t
Niklaus POVI wanted to go over to help Andrew and Nadine fight off the rogues, but I could not leave my pack and mate. I also had two injured women that I cared for here. The attack was not here, but one could not be certain. They tried to abduct Amara after all.Throughout the day, I was restless. I sent my warriors to another pack, and Damien later went with them. Outwardly, I was calm and collected as an Alpha should be, even in the most chaotic of situations- but internally, I was worried as hell. I had not heard anything from my men, and it scared the shit out of me. The only thing I was grateful for was that none of dead yet. As an Alpha, I would feel it when a pack member dies."Hey." I heard Valerie's voice, but I didn't turn. I was standing in front of my office window, just staring intently at nothing in particular.She strolled forward, dropped something on my desk, before placing one hand on my shoulder."If you need something to talk to or share your worries with, I am h
In the Blood moon packTania's POV Ronald had not been seen since he went for that council whatever. He knew very well that he was going to be found guilty, so I advised him that he could only save himself by teaching his enemies a lesson, or by blackmailing them. I guessed that there was nothing to blackmail them with, so he went with the first one.Anyway, Beta Gerald was back, and I had him all to myself in my new room that Ronald gave me. Recently, he had been treating me a lot better.I watched as Gerald took his shirt off and tossed it aside, before coming to me like a starved tiger that just found a prey. I was putting on one of my slutty nightwears with nothing underneath, and my legs spread out for him to see, so I wasn't exactly helping. It had been a while since we had one of our escapades, and I swear to the goddess, I had missed it.He pushed me back into the bed, his lips claiming mine with such ferocity that I felt my entire body come alive, and my pussy throbbing with
Niklaus' POVI got to the silver mist pack, taking just a few more men with me. I was in my wolf form, as I l relied heavily on my sense of smell in searching for my men and catching rogues. The place was unusually quiet.I sent series of mindlink to Damien and some of the other men, but I got nothing. Something was wrong. Something strategic that I was yet to figure out was put in place to trap my men.As I walked further, I began to see some of the damages that the rogues did. Houses caught on fire, farms and properties destroyed, families wailing, injured and dead wolves, and I felt my heart bleed. It was not my pack, but these were people who did nothing wrong.I ran on my paws until I got to the pack house, and I met it surrounded by a few rogues. They were demanding that Andrew comes out and surrender the pack to them.I lay low somewhere, watching them, and waiting for the perfect moment to attack. My men did the same, except the ones that I sent to cause a little distraction t
Niklaus' POVNadine led me to the dungeon, as I was shocked to see all the men lying on the floor, some unconscious, others very weak. I searched for Damien among them, but I couldn't find him."What the fuck?!"My voice startled some of them and they struggled to stand on their feet."Alpha..." One of them acknowledged me, sounding drunk."How long will the effect of whatever this is take to wear off? Do you have any idea?" I asked, turning to Nadine."I am not very sure, but I think I overheard one of the rogues saying that it would take almost a day."Shit! I needed them to get out of here, and they would not be able to escape in this vegetable state."I need a safe place where they can stay the night without the rogues knowing of their whereabouts? Do you have such hideouts here?"Nadine nodded. "Yes. Let the ones that can walk come with me. Your men should assist the others." She was trying to sound firm, but her voice broke from time to time, her body slightly shaking.The basta
Valerie's POV "Harder, Alpha." My elder sister, Tania held tightly onto the bed, while the Alpha who happened to be my mate ravaged her insides from behind. I was seated on a wooden chair, facing them, forced to watch them. My arms, bound to the chair, were filled with marks of infidelity, the type that would only appear when your fated mate was cheating on you. But even though the marks hurt, I was not screaming or even grimacing or reacting to the pain at all, not even the one in my chest. I was used to it. For three years, since I found out that Alpha Ronald Ewan was my mate, I had been forced to endure this. He would not let me go or reject me, because being with one's fated mate 'felt good'. He would also not make me his Luna, because I was not worthy of the position. He wanted to eat his cake and have it. "What do you think, little mate? You think she is taking my cock nicely?" He asked me, his smile mocking. I rolled my eyes, ignoring his question. But as usual, the Alpha
Valerie's POVI went back to my room to shower and change into one of the few decent dresses I had. Alpha Ronald preferred buying me scandalous ones, just for his own gratification.I was so glad for whoever called him, because he was not here to lock me up."Where are you going?" One of my guards asked me, as I stepped out of the room. Alpha Ronald made sure that I was always guarded, so that I would never be able to escape him."The Alpha wants me to join him." I stated confidently, but there was a skeptical look in his eyes as he stared at me. "Look, if you delay me and the Alpha come here to get me by himself, you know too well how he will punish you. So better get out of my way, so I can be done with all these." I didn't bother to hide the irritation in my voice. All my guards and the other omegas that the Alpha specifically chose to watch me knew that I hated him. They knew that I was his play thing, and they had heard me lash out at him a few times.He then nodded, but he insis

Valerie's POV I sat on a chair in the longue, surrounded by children and teenagers. A little girl was in my lap, I had rocked her to sleep.I kept the rest busy with stories to distract them. The children asked me to tell them story about myself, so I made a cute one up with me and Klaus as the main characters. The teens would just laugh and shake theirs head at the silly stories."Zara is asleep, will you put her to bed?" A little boy asked me. I had rocked three children to sleep, and the Omegas helped me put them to bed."If course. And I think you should sleep too. All of you. Unless you are hungry."I would be surprised if they were hungry though because they ate right before my story telling."Hey Val." I heard Damien's voice behind me and I got up at once."Did you hear anything? Are they back?" I asked, letting out all the panic I had been hiding from the children. I was freaking scared.Going out there was hard, but I believe staying here, not knowing what's going on out the
Niklaus' POV Valerie's case was almost concluded. It was supposed to take more than a day, but I wanted it done as soon as possible, as I didn't want anything to interrupt her Luna ceremony. The last thing I expected to hear about was a rogue attack.I rushed to get Valerie from stage and hugged her tight. "Let's get out of here.""But... But Alpha Andrew and Nadine. They need help."I nodded. "I know. Let's get to the pack first, then I will send back up to them."She smiled faintly, but she still looked over at Luna Nadine, who was now hugging Andrew and sobbing in his arms. At that moment, they both seemed so confused.I searched for Carrie, Amara and the elders to ensure that they were all safe. When I spotted them, I signalled for them to come."You people are going to take the longer route back to our pack. Avoid the Silver mist pack at all costs, and drive as fast as you can. Mario, make sure that nothing happens to anyone of them."He lowered his head. "Yes, Alpha."Now I reg
Valerie's POV My heart was pounding violently against my ribcage, my palms sweaty and my body colder than usual as I stood face to face with Ronald. The memories came flooding down my head, threatening to drown me, but I would not let it. I would be here and I will see this man exposed, I would witness his embarrassment and watch him punished."Oh, sweetie, you can't go about throwing rape accusations. You might have climbed the social ladder, find yourself becoming a Luna soon, but that does not give you the right to tell such blatant lies." Ronald yelled, the same cold voice he used to threaten me, the same voice he used to instill fear in me, while I stay in a room, waiting for the worst to happen.I turned to Klaus who was barely holding himself from speaking. He knew that I needed to have this moment for myself.I was mad at him at the moment, but he was still my biggest strength, always by my side, never wavering. And at that moment, he sent me a mind link.'Don't let him scare
