BACK AT THE MOONLIGHT PACK.ALEX POV.I entered Tyga's office, my emotions in rage after my second visit with Blue. Earlier, I had been brimming with excitement at the thought of seeing her, but now I could not shake the worry and disappointment that had settled in me."What is wrong, boy?" Tyga asked as I entered his office, concerned clearly in his tone. "Is everything alright with Blue?"I slumped into a chair in the corner of the room, my frustration palpable. "I do not know anymore, Tyga. I think the Redmoon Pack is brainwashing her."Tyga leaned forward, his expression serious. "What do you mean by that, Alex?"I ran a hand through my hair, my anxiety mounting. My meeting with Blue had not gone as expected, and it seemed like she was growing more distant and ignoring my feelings."She said she is no longer sure if she wants to go through with the attack anymore," I explained, frustration prominent in my voice.Tyga leaned forward, his brows furrowed in confusion. "What do you
As I sat alone in my room, I couldn't help but reflect on the events of the day. Alex's visit had added to my internal conflict. I could see the disappointment in his eyes when I mentioned the idea of holding back on the battle. I knew he was deeply committed to the Moonlight Pack's mission, and my change of heart might have felt like a betrayal to him.But deep down, I couldn't ignore the growing doubts within me. Was there a way to avoid bloodshed and find a peaceful resolution? I knew I could not dwell on these feelings for too long. It was essential to focus on finding a solution that would benefit both packs, even if it meant defying expectations.Mary walked into my room in her ever-cheerful voice. Her unexpected hug took me by surprise, but I could not help but smile at her warm and cheerful presence“Hi, Blue. How are you doing” Mary asked“I'm okay” I replied, returning her hug.“Nice to hear, I have missed you a lot, it's almost like I rarely get to see you.” she pouted."I
I turned to see Troy standing at the door, his presence commanding attention as the sun's rays seemed to outline his strong figure. I could not help but feel my cheeks flush and a smile crept across my face as if I were a fangirl meeting a celebrity.“Hi Alpha Troy,” Jennifer said, rising from her seat to greet him. She extended her hand towards him, but Angela quickly pulled her hand down. Obviously, one did not simply approach and touch the alpha of a pack without proper protocol.“Hi ladies, how are you guys doing?” Troy greeted me with a warm smile.“We are all good,” Jennifer responded with enthusiasm. “Mary, why don't you introduce us?” she suggested.I could not help but feel a bit jealous of Jennifer's overly friendly attitude toward Troy. It was an odd sensation, but I brushed it off, telling myself she was just being a bit too forward.Mary introduced them to him and Jennifer was acting too excited and too much around Troy in my opinion.“I wish I could spend more time with
TROY’S POV.I watched her take a sharp intake of breath as I moved closer and sat beside her. Her racing heartbeat was a melody to my ears, and I could not help but smirk."Are you nervous?" I asked, gently turning her face toward mine."What are you going to do to me?" she inquired, her voice filled with a mix of fear and curiosity.I held her gaze, captivated by the rise and fall of her chest."I can do plenty of things to you, sweetheart," I whispered in a husky tone."Please don't hurt me," she pleaded, her vulnerability tugging at my conscience.My expression hardened as I pressed my lips into a thin line. I had no intention of hurting her. In fact, she was incredibly precious to me, even though she remained clueless about it. I continued to gaze into those mesmerizing golden eyes, unable to fathom causing harm to something so beautiful.She bit her lip, a habit I had come to notice she displayed when stressed. It was distracting, and I had to address it."Blue, stop that. You ar
As I entered my room, a wave of embarrassment washed over me. I could imagine my dead father's disappointment in me, and the disapproval that would surely come from my pack members once they discovered that the one who had vowed to bring the Redmoon pack to its knees was now in love with their Alpha. What was wrong with me?It felt like my very existence was destined to bring shame upon my pack. The weight of unworthiness pressed down on me, making me question my ability to lead as their Alpha.Why have not transformed into a wolf yet? Why is it that despite my efforts to despise Troy, I only discover more reasons to love him? What is happening to me? I feel so powerless and filled with shame. If Xena had not interrupted, I might have given in to my desires and made love to him.I buried my face in my pillow, tears streaming down my cheeks as confusion overwhelmed me. Do all girls experience this inner madness? Am I the only one facing this unthinkable choice between following my hear
TROY’S POV.I entered my house, my heart shattered into pieces. I had been made a fool in front of my people, and now I regretted not heeding Xena's warnings from the start. I had been blinded by the hope that she, my mate, would see me differently, but all along, she had been plotting my downfall.Blue's presence lingered in my home, her faint vanilla scent hung in the air, almost as if she had never left. The pain she had caused me cut deeper than anything my parents had ever done.Once I discovered that Blue was responsible for the break-in and theft from my office, I had no choice but to order her arrest. The elderly woman who had brought this information to my attention had witnessed Blue talking to a mysterious man one night. She could not hear their conversation, but her instincts told her something was wrong. She had reported it to one of my lower guards, but he had laughed in her face saying she was notorious for acting crazy and seeing things that were not there. However, w
It had been two long, desolate days in this forsaken prison. Solitude was my only companion, except for the occasional visits from the prison guard when he brought my meals. I have tried to chat with him to find out what is happening outside these four walls. I needed to know how Troy was doing and what course of action he planned to take. Xena had informed me that Troy knew about all our plans and was deeply disappointed in me.I desperately want to talk to him and explain why I did what I did.As the guards entered once again bringing my meal, I seized the opportunity to make my plea."Please, I need to speak with Troy," I begged.The guard scoffed, a mocking grin on his face. "Oh, sweetheart, do you honestly think our alpha would want to talk to you after everything you have done?"Tears gathered up in my eyes. "Please, I beg you, just let me talk to him," I pleaded with the guard.But he responded with a cruel laugh. "You think begging will change anything? Our alpha has no time
My heart was no longer a presence within me. It felt like I was enduring a slow, torturous death with every passing second. The pain of mate rejection was something no one would want to go through, even if they were not a full-fledged werewolf yet.In the world of werewolves, the moon goddess typically assigns us a destined mate. In my case, even though I had not yet shifted into my wolf form and could not fully experience the mating bond, the rejection by one's mate, especially if they hold a higher rank, brings about a kind of suffering that goes beyond the mental realm. It's as if your physical body has endured unimaginable torture, and the higher the rank of the rejecting mate, the more intense the pain becomes.I had been confined to that prison for what felt like an eternity, and I would have completely lost track of time if not for the occasional reminder from the guard, who informed me of the passing days.Ever since Troy's rejection, my appetite had vanished. I could no longe
Chapter 138 – Blue’s POVThe world outside felt eerily calm as we prepared to set out. Emily’s sobs echoed in my mind as I stood by the window, staring into the night. It was the calm before the storm—a silence that weighed heavily on all of us.Troy’s presence beside me was steadying. He placed a hand on my shoulder, his grip firm and reassuring. “We’ll get him back, Blue. We’ll bring Nathan home.”I nodded, steeling myself. “And we’ll finally end this madness.”Emily sat nearby, her face pale and drawn, clutching the last remnants of hope she had. Her brother’s life hung in the balance, and we couldn’t fail.Troy stepped forward, the sword from his uncle’s chest now sheathed at his side. “This might be more than just saving Nathan. If Emily’s right, this man—the one behind all of this—could be tied to the secrets of the cult. He might even be the one who’s been orchestrating the attacks against our pack.”I swallowed hard, the weight of his words sinking in.“You don’t think…?” I he
TROY’S POV.I opened the door letting Blue inside. It was the room where my dad had kept some of his possessions before he died. I have not been inside here for a while and I felt nostalgic.“What are we doing here?” Blue asked, “You never wanted me in this room,” “Yep but I think it’s important now,” I said walking to where there was a pile of boxes, and underneath was an old wooden chest. I removed all the boxes out of my way and brought out a sword from it, carved by the finest blacksmith, and showed it to Blue. “What’s that got to do with anything,” Blue asked, placing both hands on her side.“It belongs to my uncle,” I said. “ Okay, and? Do you intend to use it to fight off the enemies? Because we have to know who they are before we can fight them.” “Look,” I said while showing Blue the fine craft design embedded on the swords. “You see what is written here?” Blue eyes widen in surprise as she reads the words “Deep in the assay,”“Exactly,” I answered proudly and carefully

EMILY’S POV. Humming a turn mindlessly, I strolled along the lonely part leading to my house. It was a shortcut that I had not used in a while but today I decided to take that lane because I was exhausted and needed to rest.While walking I noticed an unusual sound and I turned around to see a man standing beside me. He was wearing all black and wore a mask too, so I could only see a part of his face. “Hey, “ I said trying to hide my fear, it was strange to see another person walking in the same lane because it's usually quiet and nobody uses it as much. He did not say anything, so I kept walking fast and trying to be on high alert.The man eventually caught up with him. At this point, the hair on the back of my neck was standing and I did not know if to run or pretend to be brave. So I choose the latter.“Are you sure you did not take anything from that room,” he asked.“What are you talking about?” I asked, walking faster, trying to get away from this creep. “You know exactly
BLUE’S POV. I went upstairs to tend to my crying babies. I entered the room to find Troy was already there, gently rocking one of the babies side by side and whispering soothing words to both of our little ones. I placed my hands on his shoulder, thankful for his help before going to carry the other baby to breastfeed.I settled into the nearby rocking chair, cradling our second baby close, and chuckled softly. “They like having a lot of attention, don’t they?”He nodded, his gaze shifting between our babies. “They do,” he said, and then smiling softly, he continued ” They are just like their mama, always wanting all of my attention,”“What do you mean?” I pouted, “I definitely do not disturb like this kids,”“Whatever you say, darling, whatever you say,” he responded and kissed my forehead. “They took after their father, not me,” I protested. “I was a sweet little girl growing up and never cried over nothing,” I said proudly.“Even that statement sounds like a lie,” he said cockil
BLUE’S POV.“Hi, what brought you here, this early? I hope you are okay,” I said to Emily as soon as I walked into the office where she was. I noticed she seemed uncomfortable and bothered about something.“Good morning, Blue,” she greeted, “I am sorry for disturbing you but there is something that I need you to see,” “What is that ?” I asked, curious.“It does not look like much at first sight but I think it holds the answers we have been looking for and hopefully it will help us trace the people who experimented on Alex,” Emily said, then unzipped her backpack and brought out some drawings with strange drawing and a green book which looked like something I have seen before. “Where did you get that book from?” I asked while pointing at it. “My brother gave it to me, he said Alex had lent it to him before his death,” she paused studying my reaction, and then continued, “At first glance, it looks like it has nothing to do with anything that has been happening lately and just any regu
BLUE’S POV. “Sabrina, Sabrina,” I called out, turning around in the darkness, the place was void and empty and I had been calling her number for what felt like hours even though it was just a couple of minutes. “Sabrina,” I screamed. “Stop being a coward and fucking answer me, Sabrina,” The atmosphere changed and I immediately knew that Sabrina was nearby. “Stop shouting I can hear you quite alright, I am not deaf,” Sabrina said in a soft sing-song manner. “Then what took you so long to answer me? Cause I would have sworn you were going deaf,” I spat in anger.“Easy there now Child, your anger is too much and we don't like it when. People visit our arena with that much anger, it disrupts the balance of my realm,” she said calmly. The way she sounded calmly made me even more angry.“What do you want Child,” she asked softly, “I am guessing I already know why judging from your anger but I would like to hear you speak for yourself,” “Why did you not inform me earlier, you said you w
EMILY’S POV. I walked up very early in the morning clutching tightly the bag which contained Alex’s drawing and potentially the evidence we needed. I heard the bag tightly throughout the time, afraid that it might disappear or someone would come to steal it from me. I needed to speak with Blue as soon as possible and I went into the shower for a long bath to calm my tired nerves. I got out of the shower and dried my hair when I noticed something was missing. I looked around and the bag was nowhere to be found. I started to panic. Had someone broken into my house when I was bathing? I quickly searched the entire house when I saw Nathan, my younger brother holding the paper in his hands and the other scattered on the ground.“Nathan, what are you doing ?” I shouted at him which startled him. He turned to look at me and immediately he saw my angry expression and said “I am so sorry Emily,” he asked. “What the hell is wrong with you,” I scolded, while arranging all the paper together
EMILY’S POV. “Don’t even try to lie to me, Emily, I have known you long enough to know when something is bothering you,” Veronica replied, looking at me intensely.“Nothing is on my mind. I am fine,” I responded while wiping my hands dry. “Is it about Alex, because if it is, you know you can talk to me,” I responded. The mention of Alex, felt like she put a dagger through my heart and I could feel the intensity of the pain I had been trying so desperately to avoid and I started crying again. Veronica walked up to me and started hugging me and patting my back. “Is okay sweetie?” he whispered into my ears as I cried into her shoulders, “let it all out?” I sobbed uncontrollably into her arms for what felt like forever. “I don't know if I would ever stop to feel this pain?” I sniffed and I lifted myself from her warm hug to look at her. “I don't know if this pain would ever go away, Veronica. It hurt too much,”“I understand you,” she said as she tucked a loose strand of my hair be
