Before the blood moon
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56The night was chilly, by human standards. However, Serena didnt feel it anymore. Her werewolf skin could withstand low temperatures easily. The music from the grand hall wafted around Serena as she stood near the railing looking down into the forest. The ground was several feet below but she could land safely if she was careful. She had been practising running and jumping as a wolf. She was fast, very fast. Much faster than the pack's strongest beta. Speed was something God-given. Even as a human she was quick, although not quick enough to run from the rogue who attacked her.
That brought her to her current turmoil. Why was it that the rogue chose her, the supposed fiery one and Dorcas saved her and also turned out to be her mate. Right before the rare blood moon when the prophecy would be fulfilled. Why was the series of coincidences so perfectly aligned? It seemed almost staged.
She closed her eyes and tried to recall the evening she was attacked. Her brain dre

Serena had just slipped into her room when the knock came at her door and one of the senior female betas June entered followed by two omegas. June held a small golden chalice in her hand.“What is that?” Serena asked.“The Alpha has sent some sedatives to calm your nerves during the ceremony. It would only last for thirty minutes. You can drink it right before the walk to the Ceremonial Circle.” June replied.“Thank you, you can keep it on the table.”Serena was undressed and led to the bathroom, where she was submerged in a hot bath that smelled of vanilla and spice. Her body was scrubbed clean. After the bath, she was rubbed dry with fluffy towels and led back to the room. While the women prepared her for the ceremony, Serena prepared her escape plan.Dressed in a red silk gown, Serena stared at herself in the mirror. The two golden ribbons kept the flimsy material closed, and were there for the

2021, Alpha Ruben's office-There was pin-drop silence in the room as Serena finished narrating her story.“William and Sarah left along with me. It was never my plan to remain with my husband,” Serena continued. “I just wanted to ensure their safety, then disappear again. I couldn't stay with him. My disappearance had caused a big storm among the packs.”A chuckled broke her monologue.“I remember that wedding, Dorcas was so mad. Imagine your Luna running away right in the middle of the ceremony. It was the best wedding I have ever attended.” He laughed. Then saw the scowl on Ruben's face and shut up immediately.Serena continued.“We travelled South, ending up in New Orleans. Dorcas was constantly chasing me and I knew I would have to leave. William wanted me to stay. He truly loved me.” She said wistfully.“My body was undergoing changes that I didn't understan

"Buralo' the sign read. Sebastian smiled a bit. A bar owned by a wolf, how typical. Though it was fairly early in the evening the bar was busy. Men and women mingled throughout the space, some were clustered along the long wooden bar and others were either sitting at bistro tables or dancing to the music that pumped through the surrounding speakers. He made his way to the bar intending to ask for Andrea.He didn't have to make an effort to catch the attention of the bartender. They knew immediately that he was a vampire. A statuesque woman with sleek black hair and dark blue eyes came up to him. Her eyes widened with surprise. Probably, this was her first encounter with any vampire."Hi, what can I do for you?" She asked, a little agitated."I am looking for Andrea," he said over the din.The bartender's pretty eyes widened dramatically. She looked him over again, her eyes trailing from his intense grey eyes and roaming over his strong f
Bound to the Alpha Stoking the fire
The kiss was so devastating that Andrea felt her knees tremble the instant Sebastian's mouth slanted over hers. Her wolf howled as his hot mouth lazily nudged hers, his tongue licked deliberately along her bottom lip before prying for entry. She sighed and parted her lips, allowing him to ravish her mouth. This was so wrong. She shouldn't be allowing this to happen, but all rational thoughts were out of her mind as his hands moved and began to slowly stroke down her bareback with furore.She moaned and moved closer to him, pressing her breasts against his hard chest. When his hands reached the curve of her ass he pulled her lower body towards him, spreading his legs, so he could fit her between them. Her moan increased up a notch as his mouth continued to ravage hers. Her body connected with the hard mound of his erection. The proof of his desire.She was intoxicating, her soft curves molded perfectly against his raging hard-on. It was enough to make him tremble with n

"Your mother was a decent woman, naive but she had a good heart. She died too young. Just 200 years old. That's such a tragedy." Elizabeth said dramatically. It was a touchy subject for Ruben, both his parents had died in a plane crash 70 years ago. It happened long ago but it's still hurt him. "Serena claims that my mother and she had become good friends but mom refused to support her when she was on the run." "Oh! that was such a terrible affair, the poor girl was kidnapped and forced to become a wolf. But she should have been thankful about it. Being a wolf is an honour." Beth said, proudly. Ruben rolled his eyes," right! so coming back to the point what exactly happened back then?" "After Serena ran away, the council had split between those who supported the dark wolves and those who didn't. Finding and mating with a fiery one would have brought prosperity for the werewolves hence it was very important." "By kidnapping and fo

Lisa was wrapped in strong arms as someone grabbed her from the floor. It took her a moment to collect herself, but the sense of safety vanished when she realized who had found her. She was looking into those green eyes. Ruben was kneeling bedside her holding her arms.His eyes were filled with genuine concern. Lisa was puzzled. She wiggled out of his grip and fell against the wall, bracing herself for his attack"Stay away from me!""What happened? Did someone hurt you?" He asked.He looked away from her and towards the open door. She tried to slide against the wall and slip away from him. She pressed her back as hard against the wall as she could. Her breathing was frantic and she felt like she was having a full-blown panic attack."Please tell me what's wrong?" He asked. He reached his hand out to put it on her shoulder and she almost fell over trying to avoid his touch."You....you tired too....."She looked down looking

"Does it hurt?" Hugo asked."Not really, I barely notice it," Lisa said.Hugo touched her neck and examined the mark. Finally when he was done Ruben let himself relax."How long has it been since you were bitten ?""One week," Ruben replied."It's been very long since anyone saw Dorcas or the dark wolves. They do attack a few packs sometimes but no one has interacted much with them. It seems like Dorcas is more powerful than we expected." Hugo said."But why does he want Lisa?" Ruben asked."I am not sure but I believe it's something to do with her bloodline. She is the descendent of the fiery one. ""So? How does that matter? I have many descendants. " Serena interjected. "Unless she is the other fiery one." She suddenly stopped and looked at Lisa. Her eyes widened."You have the mark too?"Lisa looked flustered and exchanged glances with Ruben. What was she supposed to answer?'Just say
Bound to the Alpha Some heart to heart talk
"A penny for your thought?" Ruben asked Lisa when they returned to their room. She had been completely silent since the meeting adjourned. "I am just thinking about taking a shower." She replied. "Well, then go ahead," Ruben said with an amused look. "But I am not supposed to be alone. Are you going to follow me inside ?" She looked furtively at the bathroom door. "Unfortunately yes but I promise I will keep my eyes closed. " He grinned. She huffed. "Never mind, I will go to bed," she said. She walked right past Ruben and headed towards the bed. "Hey, are you alright? I was just kidding. I am not going to peep inside. Please have your shower." Ruben said, turning towards her. He could understand her worry. Being tailed 24 hours was annoying. "I'm fine. I don't need a shower." She replied. "Is there anything I can do for you? If you

There werewolves and vampires in the room. Lisa's scarlet dress clung to her figure snugly, making her appear more shapely. Ruben spun her across the dance floor, bringing her through unfamiliar moves. She admired the way he made it appear as though she knew what she was doing. She felt a sting as his gaze shifted away from hers. Everyone kept reminding her that this night was all about her, but it was also partly about him. He was her mate, and she had been increasingly aware since the transformation that it was in his nature to desire the best for her and the pack. He wanted to talk business with the Alphas of the other packs because he was surrounded by them, but he was stuck with her. "So, who is the blue-shirted gentleman?" Lisa inquired. Ruben answered with a deep growl that she wouldn't have heard a few weeks before. He was still a little possessive of her. Ruben said, "Lucian. He's the Crimson Shadow Pack's Alpha. They are from Florida. We don

The pack was standing together in a circle. Beth and those who had died in the battle were honoured with a brief memorial service.Lisa approached Andrea, who was solemnly observing the happenings. Andrea was depressed, she could tell. She was reminiscing about Elizabeth, small details like how the old wolf made up stories."She loved you. She expressed her gratitude for being such a nice friend." Lisa said.Andrea turned around and looked at her with a puzzled expression."I met her after I was put into a coma. It felt like a dream, yet I believe she came to see me."Andrea stifled a sob as she continued, "I miss her."Lisa took her hand in hers and gently squeezed it. "We all miss her. She claimed, however, that she had a good life and wished to be free. We should probably be happy for her. And most of her stories were made up. But you already know that right?"Andrea gave her a friendly grin and a nod.*************

Sebastian had been bothered by something, so he patiently waited for the meeting to end before scooting over to Ruben and his companion."Ruben, when you say I'm now a member of the pack, do you mean I have to obey you like your dogs?" He roared, his rage erupting in waves. Andrea was rolling her eyes and trying not to giggle as he turned to face her."Whatever gave you that idea, Sebastian?" she asked softly, her arms slipping around his shoulders."Alphas don't give ridiculous orders every five minutes. That is not my objective." Ruben said, amusingly, he understood vampire-wolf mating would be difficult. Vampires were fiercely self-reliant and thrived in their seclusion. Wolves, on the other hand, were devoted to their packs and could not survive without them."Excuse my scepticism, but what exactly do you mean by being a part of the pack?"Sebastian asked sarcastically."It was the quickest means to show my pa

Lisa's chest rose and fell in front of Ruben's eyes. He knew she was his, but he wasn't sure if she realised he belonged to her as well. He carefully lifted her shoulders and climbed out from beneath her when the doorbell rang. On the other side, he was not surprised to see Serena."How is she doing?""Sleeping," he explained.Serena responded, "The last thing that girl needs is more sleep."Ruben stated, "She is alive. Don't think I'm unaware of my good fortune. That's the only thing that matters.""Can you tell me what she remembers?" Serena inquired.Ruben said, "Not much. However, she recalls her mother's or rather her aunt's betrayal.""Mary is still imprisoned among us. What are your plans for her?" Serena enquired."Kill her," Ruben stated emphatically.Serena's pupils dilated."Lisa?""Lisa is unconcerned about my decision. And she has no desire to know."Serena smiled and n

Lisa apologised, "I'm sorry, I don't understand." "Can you tell me what you remember?" Beth inquired. "I recall feeling like I was being sucked into an abyss. I had no sensations. I only saw darkness everywhere, punctuated by agonising screaming." As she described her ordeal, Lisa trembled. "Well, he came close to catching you. Until I arrived and expelled him." Beth remarked. "Are you....dead?" Beth burst out laughing. "Nobody ever dies; they only pass into another realm. Reincarnate into a new body after bidding their time. You offered me the freedom I so sorely desired but couldn't achieve on my own. It can be tiresome to live a long life. Don't be concerned about me. I'm fine." Lisa blinked, unsure of what she was seeing. Then she spotted Beth's red hair, which was identical to hers. "I am your one-in-a-million grandaunt," Beth explained. "What

It had been a week and a half. Ten days since everything had ended. Andrea stood in the doorway of the clinic, watching Ruben gently lower his sleeping mate onto her bed. With a profound frown on his face, he covered her and then looked down at her.Sebastian muttered gently from behind her, "Hey," and she knew exactly what he wanted to hear, but she didn't believe it was the best time.He started to add, "Andrea, she'll be OK..." but her head swung around and his deep blue eyes pierced into her green ones. She groaned and walked down the corridor to a bench to sit.She said calmly, "Lisa was fatally injured. Beth is still missing, and I believe it's all my fault."Sebastian was stiff, his rage pouring out in waves, yet when he spoke again, his tone was soothing. "That is not the case. Even you were on the verge of passing away. Dorcas' use of you as bait was not your fault."Andrea bit her lower lip and swallowed."I miss Beth b
Bound to the Alpha It's finally over
Dorcas got the chance to hit Ruben on his shoulder. Ruben was not anticipating the action and was jerked away, slamming into the far tree. The wind was knocked out of him, and he was gasping for breath.“Clever dog,” Dorcas said.Ruben started to stand up, but felt a hand around his neck, lifting him in the air. He knew that Dorcas could beat him on brute strength, and he needed to think fast. He put his hands against the tree trunk and brought his knees to his chest, using all his force to shove them in Dorcas's chest. It worked and he was released.Taking advantage of the rain, he threw a fist and connected with Dorcas's face. He fell to the ground and Ruben started to kick him. It didn't take long for Dorcas to grab hold of his foot and flip Ruben down on his back. Ruben was on the ground looking up at the monster.“That wasn't very nice,” Dorcas roared.Dorcas darted away with speed, b

Trent was tearing through the maze of dark wolves, his heart pounded so loudly it was all he could hear through the rain and screams. A wolf was suddenly whirling towards him. He positioned himself to take on him when the wolf was suddenly sliced in half and thrown aside.“Serena!” Her name sounded as if it came from a distance, even though it had been directed from his lips. He watched as her body flew through the air, her top wet with rain and blood.“Thanks !” He said.She nodded, "where is Ruben?” She asked.His brain finally connected with what was happening.“I… I am not sure,” he replied, still in awe. Serena had saved his life!“Ruben, where are you !” She almost wept with relief as Ruben's alert mental voice answered her.Her mate knew instantly that something was wrong and didn't stop to
Bound to the Alpha Race to save
Andrea felt herself falling, heard Lisa's scream. She knew she was going to die. Ruben would go insane with grief if she did. And Sebastian, well, she was terrified for her vampire. Maybe once their mate bond was gone he would go back to living his normal life. Lisa screamed and caught Andrea as she fell. She had seconds to catch her, a very few precious seconds. She reached out, forcing her tired body to move faster than she'd ever moved before. She had no idea where Ruben was, and she didn't care. Her hand caught Andrea's outstretched arm, she pulled hard, wincing as she felt her shoulder dislocate. She managed to slide her body beneath her friend a split second before they hit the ground. She attempted to cushion most of the impact, to keep Andrea protected in her firm embrace, but she heard the other woman cry out in pain and knew that she was badly hurt. “Why did you do that ?” She screamed at Dorcas,” I said I was ready to cooperate.” “She
