As the starry night it was, there was darkness around the corner of the full blank sky, a vignette appeared as the dusk took over. The crystal clear moon shone over the massive territory of the crystal moon pack. The patrolling guards wandered on the border and tried to keep the security tight, as much as possible. The news had spread like a fire that the Luna Aria was in labour and soon, Alpha Damien Brook will be a father.
As the lively Alpha he was known to be, but his terrible and dangerous side had a reputation of the ruthless Alpha when it comes to his pack. Now that he was going to be a father, he was more dangerous than ever. The brook ancestry had a special bloodline, once in a one hundred and twenty five years, a werewolf born in the brook family was claimed to be special, powerful among other ordinary werewolves in the world. The werewolf was blessed but the moon goddess itself and they were sent on earth to maintain the peace and harmony.
Alpha Damien was aware that it must be his first child who could be the special werewolf. To protect the pup, he was willing to do everything…
Inside the infirmary, the labour room was filled with screams filled with pain and stress. The Luna of the pack was in intense labour and soon she will be able to deliver the pup. Beside her, laid the beta Female of the pack, Jenna, who was pregnant at the same time with full term, went into labour. Beta Jaden informed Alpha Damien about the news of him becoming a father as well.
Inside their office, Alpha Damien escorted his beta for a discussion.
"Jaden!!! You know what it means?" He asked him with one of his eyebrows raised.
There was something running inside Alpha Damien's mind which startled Beta Jaden as well.
Jaden was aware of the bloodline and to protect the powerful pup, he was willing to do impossible. He knew where this would land and nodded his head in agreement.
"Yes, I do. Don't worry, Alpha, beside my Alpha you are my friend too and to protect the honour of our pack, I will do as you say." Said Jaden in a low tone.
"Are you sure?" Alpha Damien wasn't sure Beta Jaden was willing to agree on his terms. After all, he was becoming a father too and for a father, it was the most difficult sacrifice to make.
"You don't really have to… I will manage to do something else." Alpha Damien wanted his beta's happiness too.
"Damien… it's not about the pack, not even the status. It's the bloodline. I am a warrior who was blessed to be in this pack to protect it. And so far, this is the best thing to do. You already know we have enemies set their eyes on us and this news will shake them. They will try to hurt you and your family, especially the blessed pup." Beta Jaden cleared the doubts in Alpha Damien's mind.
He was jubilant to have an understanding beta as an advisor to him. Now that he had agreed with the plan, they were ready to execute it. For the protection of the bloodline, it was a sacrifice both fathers were willing to conduct.
The midwife helped Luna Aria deliver the baby and soon, little cries echoed in the empty, tenseed corridors.
"It's a girl…" the maidens shouted and informed everyone that Alpha Damien is the father of a baby girl.
Soon, The beta Female delivered the baby and coincidentally, she too delivered a baby girl.
"Wasn't it amazing that two goddesses are born today." The midwives were talking to each other.
The alpha and the beta came along after hearing the news and Alpha Damien gestured Beta Jaden. He nodded his head and went to see the babies first before their mothers could see them.
Alpha Damien walked into the room where Luna Aria was shifted into after delivery. He laid soft kisses over her forehead and greeted her, "congratulations Luna Aria.."
"Actually, congratulations for both of us, Alpha Damien…" said Luna Aria before holding Alpha's firm hands.
Soon, the midwife brought the baby wrapped in swaddler and handed her to Alpha Damien.
"Here is our bundle of joy… look at her, she is so pretty… I will give you the whole world." Alpha Damien's words were filled with genuine happiness.
"What would you like to call her? Have you thought of a name?" Asked Alpha from Luna Aria.
"Ivory… that will be her name. It was my late grandmother's maiden name and since I had no other family member beside her, I wanted to give her her name." Luna Aria was confident with the name.
"Okay… so, Hello Ivory… welcome to our world."
The giggles and laughters lingered in the room where new parents were having fun with their new born daughter. Beside their room was Beta female's room.
The beta couple were holding their baby in arms.
"Jaden… are you happy?" Asked Jenna.
"Of course, why wouldn't I be happy?" Said the beta male.
"You don't seem to be… is everything okay? Did you want a boy instead of a girl?" Jenna was depressed after noticing that beta Jaden was a bit upset.
He held her hands and looked into her eyes, "no… I am blessed to be a Father, it doesn't matter if it's a boy or a girl. It's my child and I am willing to protect it at all costs. It's just that I am afraid of losing her once she finds a mate and leaves us." Jaden made a puppy face.
"Serious? That's how long you think about…" Jenna giggled lightly.
"Do you have any suggestions on what to name our baby girl?" Asked Jenna.
Jaden was in deep thought as picked his nose and came up with a name. "Orfilia… that will be her name.."
Jenna was mesmerized when Jaden picked out the best name for her baby. A smile erupted on her lips and she turned her eyes to look at the sleeping baby in her arms.
"Orfilia… as brave as bear, as serene as moon…"
Orfilia's povSlumbered at my bed like a snorlax, I didn't wake up even after snoozing the annoying alarm clock buzzing overhead. Last night was amazing as it was the second last day before my birthday. I was about to turn eighteen tomorrow. As it appeared exciting for me, the anxiety of getting a mate made me blush. The daughter of Beta of crystal moon pack. That was my identity but now that I will turn eighteen tomorrow, I will make my own identity in this pack. Precisely, I opened my eyes when the loud thuds were heard in the room. My focus went to the wall clock and it made me widen my eyes that I overslept. Not actually, I overslept as I was getting late but I promised myself to run into the woods to calm the anxiety running through my veins. I could still manage to run if I got out of bed.Throwing away the duvet, I jumped into my track suit, made my bed and picked up all the scattered stuff in my room. Then I headed for a run. A wild run into the forest had always calmed me.
Unknown's povCrispy red painted sky when nature's fireball rose with dawn, on the horizon it shone with a faint hue of burnt orange and scattered red. The puffy clouds danced over the gigantic but calmed ocean, spiralled under the web of the dense forest. I stood near the borders of the Moon blessed territory, that's called The Crystal Moon Pack.Never in my wasted life have I felt a bit of fear, not even from the Alpha of my former pack. It was just a respect I gave him as a friend. However, today, I stood in foreign land. Something had stirred in my mind. The feeling was alienated as I haven't felt it for a long time. Until I realised it was my wolf, it came back on the surface. However, he wasn't really intended to initiate a conversation. Douche… Hefty paws and trickling sweat beads rolled down on my face as I watched the territory borders closely, my enhanced sight provided me a view of patrolling guards all over the place and their intricate guarding pattern. The security outs
Alpha Damien's povI could hear the noise of the music banging out loud from the farmhouse but inside my office, it was silent and my silence was eating me up. The party hadn't started and a few guests showed up. My thoughts about this birthday were delusional. If it would be in my hand, I wouldn't have let my daughter turn eighteen. Anytime, she will have her first shift and my biggest secret would be revealed.Before I got up from my chair, I heard a significant knock on the door and with an authoritative tone, I let the beta of my pack inside."Damien… the party will start anytime." He announced as he proceeded to walk towards me."I know there will be Alphas from different packs along with their children. I am afraid that my secret will be exposed. I cannot afford to make this mistake. We need to do something… I will cancel this party…" I started with an aggressive tone."No… you will not… this will only increase others' suspicion." Said Jaden."Than what am I supposed to do?" I w
LanceAs the slow breezes blew, embracing my fur, a shiver went down my spine when a painful howl was heard from a distance. It was different and somehow, I felt the pain of a heartbreak. Someone's love had died that night.Confused, as I stood at the boundaries of the crystal moon pack, my wolf was on the surface again but he was distant from me. There was no point left to start a conversation but there was no harm in trying, was it? When I asked the silence for the answer, I got silence in return. He was disappointed in me and I understood him. I closed my eyes and waited for the call. "We have dug the tunnel… Now it's your turn to get inside and bring that wolf…" said one of the Alpha's puppets.Of course, being the banned Alpha, he had his traits which followed his legacies. Considered his doubts in me, so he sent a team of his special warriors along. They had kept their eyes on me and even if I wanted to escape, I wouldn't land anywhere safe or consider a place that would be cal
Orfilia's povSomething doesn't fit here, something wasn't right at all. The anxious phenomenon decorated on my mother's face was a clear indicator of a messed up situation. Doesn't feel good and went for the run instead. Although it was evening now and I had nothing left to do, maybe a warm up and a run into the woods would calm my own anxiety and let me breathe when I felt suffocated inside my own house. Definitely, it wasn't just the first time I felt weird about something different but why does it always felt like I had to do a lot rather than just keep looking forward in the direction. My pathways were overshadowed but finding the light would be the answer. Somehow, I felt like being called by a voice but I halted as the hair on my nape stood erect and my wolf was trying to inform me about the danger. Danger in the territory? My steps stopped and halted in a place as I turned the heels and moved back to the civilized society. Dropping everything off, I ran to see Ivory because
Orfilia's povAs soon as Luna Aria was seen lying unconscious on the floor, the medical staff rushed to take her inside and healers arrived to check her vitals. Just as the news spread about Luna's condition, Alpha Damien came along and he turned pale when he saw his wife on the hospital bed.I stood a few meters away from them and watched them closely. Somehow, I knew it was my fault. I failed to protect Ivory.My hands were trembling when Luna Aria didn't respond to their calls and they rushed to admit her in the emergency. Alpha's gaze landed on me and he was hyperventilating in a corner."Orfilia… are you okay?" He was concerned while putting his warm hands over my shoulders.I burst into tears and shook my head in disagreement, "No… I am not okay… in fact, I have failed you. I have failed to protect your daughter when those rogues abducted her. However, I did my best to fight but somehow, I couldn't shift into my wolf…"I knew that Alpha would be mad at me and he would punish me
Orfilia's povLast night, I had isolated myself from the family. Dad came to my room and knocked the door several times but when he didn't received any response from my side, he left. I cried the entire night and thought why did it happened? Was there something I didn't know?Suddenly, it struck to my mind that the day when I was discussing about my shift and what my wolf looked like, I saw my parents expressions turning pale. Not to be delusional, but I thought there was something they were hiding. I got up form the bed and opened the door, than I went downstairs to my parents and decided to confront them. Raised my hand and placed soft knocks on the door and within a second, Dad opened the door and let me in. The vibe inside the room expressed the tensed environment. "Orfilia… how are you feeling now? We know that it was stupid to ask, specially when your friend being kidnapped but we want you to be safe and secure as well." Asked Mom from me and than she proceeded to make me sit
Lance's povAfter entering into the territory, I kept my sense awake in case if I came across with the gurads of Crystal Moon pack. I need to atke them down and kept getting inside the territory to find the wolf. Once My hands get on this special wolf, I will hand her to the banned Alpha, Raymond and ask for my freedom in exchange of the wolf. The tension of getting caught was too much and on the other side, my wolf was unsettled and restless since I had entered the pack boundaries. Not sure what does it mean but It doesn't felt like any threat. Keeping that thoughts apart, I focused to look for the wolf and wondered what that wolf might look like.All of the clues, I only had that the special wolf pup would be Alpha Damien's first child. After extracting out the information, I find out that it was his daughter Ivory who was the moon wolf of the crystal moon pack. Atleast, something was better than nothing but who is she? I need to find out.I discussed with the team of rogue warriors
I wake up on the bed, drenched in all sweat, in the middle of the night and startled to see unknown surroundings. I gasp in fear and panic rose to my throat. I get up from the bed and rushes to the door to open it and escape from that place immediately. As I run barefoot through the corridors, but only to find out that I was in the infirmary, as I recall the place. I feel air passing into my lungs as I breathe in relief, but it confuses me to the core reasoning why I was in infirmary.Suddenly, I hear random and loud footsteps approaching me and I become alert and turn to look toward the footsteps. I notice a few of the healers and Daphne approaching me. My vision blurs and I feel my throat getting dry with every breath I take. My chest burns and I cough frequently. Something is not right? Why the hell I get in here? As I remember last night, I was partying with Lucian and others.The healer approaches me and helps me to breathe properly, “your majesty! Please come inside. You are wea
Orfilia's pov Once the celebration was over, I went straight to my room and called Lance because We both need to talk about this major decision I was about to take. He observed the anxiety and palpitations so he didn't let it get over and followed me to the room. When we reached, he put my hands in his and pulled me closer. Before I knew, he already had his lips on mine and we both moved in synchronisation. I didn't wanted to interrupt either so I moved with the flow and we both land on the bed, undressed each other and made love to each other. It was the best sex and he made me realise that what a worthy mate he was. I wished I could stay like that but I was lacking time since the noon was over and soon the sun will hide under the sky. "So, what are you thinking now?" Lance asked me. "I am thinking about you, us." I stated. "No! I mean, for future." He added. "Yeah! That's why I called you. I know I might sound childish but I don't want to stay here." I looked with a puppy face
Orfilia's pov The moment I had put the crown on Ivory's head, The crowd in the stadium went berserk. They applauded loudly and nothing seemed better than that, but, When my eyes met with Alpha Damien's, he was sad and upset about my decision. I would take long to make him understand that i never wanted to be the Alpha of this pack. Maybe, if things from the starting were different, I could be the Alpha but my spirit seek something meaningful and adventure. Lady Nymeria would be waiting for me and I had to leave this pack today. "But why? If I wanted to make her an Alpha, I would have asked her." Damien slammed his palms on the glass table, cracking it from the middle. We were in his study and the atmosphere was high and dramatic. "Why not? She is your daughter too and you said you wanted to see your daughter leading this pack, so what makes a difference if It's her, not me!" I stated while looking at him. "She is not you!!" He gritted his teeth. "Still makes no sense to me. If
Orfilia's pov After getting an approval from Alpha Damien, I was sure that I would bring the worthy candidate to be an Alpha of the pack. However, the time limit was short but atleast, I knew what I had to do. When I left the room, I bumped into Ivory and behind her were her daughters in the baby cart. She smiled widely at me. "Orfilia! You seem to be in a hurry. I know you have a coronation today but can you spare a moment for me." She made a request. "Of course, is everything alright?" I got worried when she called me to stay for a while. Even when I had limited time to find a worthy candidate, I couldn't deny her request. She escorted me out from the pack house while her daughters were taken to Alpha Damien's room. I wondered if Ivory was fine because I could read from her face that she wasn't feeling good. Her face was glowing under the warmth of the sun. "You haven't answered me." I asked her. "Yeah! I was occupied with thoughts. I have been awake the entire night. No matt
The night passed with tension lingering within the pack which was under the fog and the mist while they were playing like small children. The moon was bright and confident, however, the appearances might be deceiving. Even if the security had been increased around the boundaries and inside the pack, I was still anxious and palpating under the edge of a knife. I couldn’t sleep with peace as it kept me agitated all night long. The thoughts of becoming the Alpha of this pack was shaking me up. I did agree to Alpha Damien's demand only because I cannot make him feel depressed due to his conditions but this 'Becoming an Alpha' thought was keeping me at bay. I was alone in my room when I heard a knock and saw Lance entering. A smile flashed on his face and I gave him a slight smile too. "What's wrong? You seem worried." He spotted. "I am in a dilemma." I started with a low tone. "What dilemma? Is everything alright? I know that Alpha Damien had talked to you about something serious and e
With the morning dew glory at dawn and wet paws ahead of time, We saw the restricted boundaries of the Crystal moon pack in front of us. I breathed silently and felt secure to see my home, again but this feeling that I couldn't shrug off was eating me up. Since I had heard the news of Alpha Damien's fight for his life, I began believing in keeping the relationships at priority over anything else. I was his biological daughter but I never looked upon him as a father, although he was a father figure to me but he was not my dad. The man beside me raised me was the one I would call my dad. We shifted back into our human form and proceeded to enter the pack's territory. The guards bowed to us and Beta Male interacted with them to gather some information. He informed us that Alpha Damien's health had deteriorated since they had left looking for me. It broke my heart a little but Ivory was shattered. She was going to lose her last family member. "We shouldn't wait anymore." I nodded my
Orfilia's pov The cold air swept over my face but the hot sweat beads on my forehead dripped down to my cheekbones. Despite the lower temperature, the cottage was burning in tension. The surface broke with a loud noise which lingered inside my head. I was standing rooted to the place because the shock I just received was too much to bear. I tried hard not to show how scared i was but those enemies had made up their mind and attacked us. I tripped and fell down but got to save my two wolves protecting me behind my back. "Lance, dad? How did you get here?" I was too stunned to speak. "Leave that for later. We need to save Ivory. Alone, she cannot handle that witch's power and I am afraid she will die. "Let's go and save her.." Rella was excited as hell. They offered me some weapons to kill the creatures creeping form the darkness and we begin fighting them, making our way to Ivory and save her before that Witch would hurt her Rashak with his weapon took down one of them but it wa
Orfilia's povAs the dawn appeared out of the horizon, I watched the first ray of sun falling on the white snow and reflecting the sparkles like a fresh cut diamond. The moment was breathtaking and it made me forget the pain coursing through my body.The wounds haven't healed and the bruises are sore. As i tried to get up along with the surroundings, i realised that i am lying on a cot which is placed outside from a temple. Although, the ceiling was covering me from the morning dew but the chills did got me shudder my spine in shiver.As I tried to get up, I convulsed and threw up at another moment. I was exhausted and helplessly laid down back on the cot. The vision was getting blurred and the sense faded but I heard the faint footsteps approaching me.I wanted to get up and fight if someone was trying to take advantage of me. These past couple of days, bizarre things are happening with me. I can’t even relate if they're real or a mere hallucination, or I was just having an inceptio
Orfilia’s povThe chilling breezes are blowing enormously, and the howling silence of the dead telling their story of the previous battles. The ears are full of silent screams of the people who left behind after the wars.The dense fog is covering the battlefield and the tiny droplets are freezing on the eyelashes. I am feeling anxious and helpless, even when the whole thing is standing with me. It begins the inevitable and there is no turning back to it.The collapsing of the icebergs in the blue ocean reminded me of the collapse world of ours, fascinating and disturbing at the same time. Time had the power to manipulate everything but we, the pawns of destiny, had no control over this time, though we could fight our way to lead a battle or a life, it won’t be enough to control the time in hands. It slips from my hands like dried sand.At the top of the world, everything seemed so tiny and minute, but the same things appeared huge and bulky when we were on the ground, below zero… sho
