Chapter 79

Selena's POV

I rushed back to the spot where Lily laid for the past thirty minutes, her head buried between her knees as she sobbed loudly. The alley was hidden from the public's eyes, but there were at least three to five werewolves who took this path every ten minutes. Her eyes were bloodshot from crying for so long but the moment she heard the sound of my feet, she raised her head, eyes widening as she took me in, perhaps wondering if it was a dream.

My hands still dripped fresh blood, making a tiny poodle where I stood facing her.

"Goddess dear me", she exclaimed, limping over to me in disbelief. "You're bleeding", she pointed out, scanning my arms for any signs of injury.

"I'm fine", I tried to console but Lily seemed to think the blood belonged to me. She was slowly getting to the brink of full blown panic. "The blood doesn't belong to me."

Lily stopped her frantic movement before looking up to me s

It was creased, causing Asher to throw me a heated glare. "What the fuck is wrong with you?", he asked, annoyance in his tone. "What's wrong with me?", I asked incredulously. "You're my fucking problem."Blake barged in, looking between me and Asher as we squared off. "Alpha. Think this through", he whispered in my ear, holding unto my wrists. The problem is, I had thought this through and it was glaringly obvious that I find it very difficult to care about anything or anyone. I chose to act oblivious to everything happening around me, I chose to stay silent while the asshole in front of me was promised my own mate. It is my fault, every damn thing but Asher also needed to pay. How could he conjure such an evil scheme, causing Selena to run off, a punch to his face

    Chapter 81Selena's POV "Aren't you ready?", Lily called from the other side of the bathroom door, groaning in frustration as I mumbled something along the lines of 'give me a minute'.My head was currently down as I shampooed my hair thoroughly, the latter so thick it was like touching a cloud. But Lily was too busy muttering carefully crafted profanities, just loud enough for me to hear her. I shook my head at her defiance. She looked my age but sure acted like a mother hen. "We're almost ready. How on earth are you still in the shower? You walked in there like thirty minutes before I went in to take a shower too."I racked my brain for an excuse. "Yeah. I'm taking so long because I'm washing my hair."She paused for a second before speaking, her voice flat and unimpressed. "I also washed my hair.""Just wait. Two minutes, I swear.""The staff are packed and waiting. The first batch of ca

    Chapter 82Selena's POV It's been close to a year, which means I'd be expecting my child soon. It was one heck of a ride with both Lily and Reynold. We grew closer with every passing day over the past months and I was never so glad to have such an amazing support system. I miss Axel every single day, that the thought of him seems to bring a terrible physical ache in my chest. But with the anticipation of seeing my child, it lessened the ache considerably. I wondered if someone had been brought as a stand in for Axel's mate. It was only a matter of time before the elders pushed him into marriage or the search for his mate. With my absence, perhaps he wouldn't have any choice but bed another woman who would beat his child. The thought made my lungs feel like it was drained of every iota of oxygen. Axel may just never forgive me for leaving without telling him. "I told you to stop eating so much",

    Chapter 83Axel's POV It's been a year. One whole year without Selena, one year of complete torture. Everyone had pretty much given up on finding Selena. There had been no sightings of her in the past months and slowly, no one cared anymore. But I did. Blake helped too but it was only a matter of time before I would also be forced to give up on finding her. The resources I had poured into her search had made other aspects of keeping the pack safe not quite as effective. The patrol guards were greatly reduced as they had been focused in finding one person, leaving others vulnerable. The attacks on our borders were growing more persistent and as such, it was vital to call off the search and focus on keeping the weak, children and elderly within these walls safe. I was to accept the bitter truth. Selena didn't want to be found. I am certain she is alive out there, else my heart wouldn't still feel her presen

Except, I heard two cries from my twin boys. The chaos that ensued in the hospital amongst the doctors made me even more nervous. They believed I was with a child, not two. Lily's eyes revealed just how happy she was, and uncle Reynold was pacing outside the delivery room, his aura exuding pure nervousness. "Congratulations, Miss. You're a mother of two", the doctor smiled down at me, putting my boys on both arms. They looked exactly identical, except the hair color. While one had Axel's midnight black hair, the other had my auburn one. The doctors filed out, leaving a nurse, Lily and Uncle Reynold who barged into the room, shoulders sagged in relief as he spotted me. My babies cooed, both their hands were in a tight fist but I couldn't see their eyes. The nurse took the babie

    Chapter 85Axel's POV The attacks on the borders are growing more persistent. It has lasted for a while now, no, two years and counting if no one decides to do something about it. The Alphas of other packs have yielded, hence the reason for the meeting I am to attend. As pack leader, it annoyed me just how all the neighboring packs wasted so much time to stuck in their asses that they didn't think of the consequences for such a time wasted. Night Reapers barely suffered any casualties but others outside the pack house were suffering and I needed to help. As annoying as that is. "You ready?", Blake peeked into my room, just as I zipped up my jacket. I am dressed from head to toe in black and I look about ready to fight with the stern expression on my face. So yes. "Let's go", I commanded, as he collected my bag, passing it to a guard.Asher, as usual, is leaning against a pillar, Cecelia

"I mean, I could've believed for a second there that those slides were built for me."I laughed along with her. She had been so excited, almost as excited as the kids when her eyes met the waterslide. I didn't do much, only sat aside, watch them play and record a few videos in between, yet there was an exhaustion overwhelming my being until I could only perform the motions, like torture. "You played more than the kids", I stated in a matter of fact tone. Lily laughed aloud, adjusting her hold on Zephyr as we walked out of the park. Orion and Zephyr seem to be in some heated argument about dinosaurs but I tuned them out, facing Lily as we spoke. "What's wrong? You seem really tired lately.""I don't know", I sighed. "I've just been a bit down."Lily looked sympathetically at me. "Do you think it concerns Alpha Axel?", her voice lowered

My lungs constricted and the painful prickle of incoming tears behind my eyelids was enough evidence to reveal how miserable I feel. "I trust you", I blurted out, not just to stop his questions but because I mean it. Axel didn't look relieved as I expected. He looked even more hurt. "You left, without any notice or reason, you simply just walked away like that. It was so easy for you to leave but did you ever think about me? How did you think I felt when you were suddenly reported missing?", his voice was still eerily calm, his eyes unblinking. "I searched for a letter, a clue, something, anything at all that showed you still thought about me even when you were walking off", he scoffed. "Guess what? I didn't find shit.""I'm sorry", I repeated again, blinking back the tears. "I'm so sorry. I was

    Chapter 140 Axel's POV I walked out of the pack house and into the expanse of land now littered with my pack members. They were in little groups, talking amongst themselves in hushed whispers. When they noticed my presence, they immediately fell silent, looking up at me with expectant faces. The last time I stood before them, we were on the verge of making the most important decision of the pack. I've never felt so much appreciation for that day than at this point. More and more werewolves gathered and I leapt onto the elevated stage, facing them. "Night Reapers, it has come to my notice that the pack, Blood Red, has fallen." The whispers rose once more and with a lift of my hand, they were silenced. "You've seen the commotion outside the gates. Those are from the survivors of the pack. They've come to us for help", I paused, surprised that no one said a word. "Now, I bring the decision to your table. What do we do?" The question spurred them into action, some yelled that

    Chapter 139 Selena's POV It took two months and five days before we heard any news about the packs. Technically, we heard news of progression and the added advantages the alliance offered to those packs, virtually every Alpha was involved except ours. As far as I was concerned, we were officially cut off. The strategy put in place by Axel worked. We had food, water and basically everything we needed within the pack. It made things considerably easier. No one complained and as days passed, more werewolves came forward as volunteers. Soon, we extended our little plan in agriculture to other aspects, like furniture making, fabric design and then, no distant time I was setting we were making waves. Orion and Zephyr were growing up quickly. Werewolves always had a weird aging style. We grow up quickly, then remain almost dormant before we begin aging slowly. Lily's presence was difficult to come by. She was mostly invested in Blake and I'd be honest when I say that their relati

Today was the day we were expecting the Alphas and to say the atmosphere was more than tense was an understatement. Axel had come clean to the pack, revealing the details of the visit to every member. He also told them about his decision and gave everyone the chance to either counter his decision or agree with him.Most of them agreed, the few that thought it was reckless were soon convinced that Axel was making the right choice. He gave them his reasons. Then, the topic of how we were going to generate incomes for ourselves even after we cut ourselves off from the other packs arose and Axel gave them the stellar idea on agriculture. The farmers came forward, pledging to give their all while some volunteered to help. By the time dawn broke, we were prepared. As prepared as we could be. "You ready?"

It was a miracle it hadn't leaped out of his hand and to an unlucky person's face. "Can you let it go, honey?", I coaxed. Orion stared at me with a sad look. "But why?", he whined. "It can be my pet."Except, werewolves don't keep pets. Our wolves were like pets, but on a way deeper level. It was part of us. "No. It can't."We were in a staring contest for at least thirty seconds before he finally gave in. "Whatever", he tossed the frog aside and it landed right on Lily's lap. Before I could react, Lily let out a loud scream. It echoed throughout the clearing and was just about to tear my sensitive eardrums.

    Chapter 136Selena's POV For the next few days, we ignored everything. Axel and I focused on nothing else but ourselves and the kids. We had a family day out, of course Blake and Lily decided to tag along and we held a little picnic just for ourselves. Truth was, it was inevitable that Axel would have to give his reply concerning the alliance bug for now, it felt much better to simply live in our own bubble. Orion and Zephyr were bickering on the color of the sky while I lay on the blanket, my eyes shut as I basked in the warm sun. "I can't believe you", Lily was speaking, throwing a punch at Blake. I could tell when he muttered a low 'ouch'."It's serious though", Blake was trying to say. I had tuned out of most of the conversation and the one I had managed to catch snippets of didn't make any sense. I pried my eyelids open, scanning for Axel as he had been awfully quiet. His back was turned to

    Chapter 135 Selena's POV "What?", I echoed, the sound loud enough that it bounced off all the walls. "An alliance?" Axel expected my reaction as he barely even reacted to my shrill. I'm certain I had alerted at least half of the staff members. "I thought so too", Axel stated blandly. I rifled through my head, searching for anything that made sense. An alliance between werewolves is nearly impossible, if not completely. That's the reason why it didn't happen, ever. It was way too risky and if not careful could cause war between packs. If Alpha Boris was proposing an alliance and the rest of the Alphas agreed with him, he was either very stupid or desperate. But, what for? "An alliance is...impossible." "I thought so too", he echoed, and I threw him a glare. "Are you even listening?", I asked. "Yes." But I co

Their eyes scanned the crowd for a few seconds before they resumed their walk, soon standing in front of Axel and I.If Axel felt nervous, he didn't show it. His face was set in a stiff position as he watched them in return."What a pleasant surprise", he stated, his voice anything but pleasant or surprised. One of the Alphas chuckled, his eyes twinkling in amusement. "Thank you, Alpha Axel", he bowed, a motion which can barely be considered a bow but sufficient enough to pass as one. "What brings you here?", Axel asked, his brows creased as he stared at them all. "I wasn't aware of your visit.""And yet...", the werewolf gestured around him. "There's an entire group waiting.""Information tends to reach us quickly."The werewolf seemed more amused than offended as

I was just being silly. Before Blake could answer, we heard the shuffling of feet outside the door but the thing is, there was more to it than just the occasional movement. They seemed more than panicked. Lily, Blake and I exchanged confused looks before we hopped up, rushing towards the door. My mind drifted to the kids first, knowing Axel would be able to take care of himself. "What's happening?"Blake asked a maid rushing away but she seemed to be too much in her panicked state to realize who was

And I hope you'll suffer for as long as possible for the penance of your wickedness.
