Lin’s POV Weeks had passed since the conclusion of the court case, with Meghan leaving without even a good bye. At first, I was worried something bad had happened to her but the hotel receptionist where she had lodged had assured me that she saw her leaving in good shape.I was really disappointed yet Meghan remained a constant presence in my thoughts. The few times we had spent side by side leading to the court case had forged a connection between us, even if it was solely professional. Her unwavering determination and sharp legal mind had left an indelible impression on me. As I went about my daily routine around the pack, my mind often drifted back to Meghan, wondering how she was faring and if our paths would ever cross again.It was a peculiar feeling, this lingering fascination, especially considering we hardly knew each other even though I’m certain we have met before but she still doesn’t recall or remember me. I was hoping we could talk better over dinner and was truly dis

Meghan pursed her lips then gestured toward the backseat with her head. I glanced back, remembering that the kids were there, and saw that Emily and Ethan had fallen asleep in the backseat. They looked so peaceful, their little chests rising and falling with each breath. I could not help but smile at their innocence and the way Ethan head gently lolled to the side as I carefully lifted him into my arms was adorable. Meghan led the way, guiding us through the dimly lit hallway towards the children’s room. We moved silently, tiptoeing as if any noise could shatter the tranquility of their slumber. It was a delicate dance, navigating the unfamiliar surroundings while ensuring the kids remained undisturbed. Just as we reached the doorway of their room, a creaking sound echoed through the apartment, threatening to wake the little ones.Meghan’s eyes widened in alarm, and we froze, holding our breath. The silence that followed was almost suffocating, and I silently willed the kids to c

“Are you leaving?” Ethan had asked, shocking me as he stopped before me, his puppy eyes staring at me. I swallowed a saliva and gave a small nod. “Yeah, it’s getting late”Emily looked concern as she listened to the interaction between her brother and me. “Are you afraid of the dark?”“No, why do you ask?”She gave a shrug, “Ethan get scared at night sometimes”Meghan looked conflicted, her eyes darting between her kids. As I sat in Meghan's cozy living room about two minutes later, a sense of warmth enveloped me. The room was alive with energy, vibrant with the laughter and playful banter of the children after I agreed to stay a bit more, not that I rather be anywhere else—Meghan watched from the sidelines, her eyes twinkling with nostalgia and something else I could not make out."I'll deal the cards," I announced, shuffling the deck with practiced ease. Ethan and Emily leaned in eagerly, their eyes bright with anticipation. They were excited to spend this time with me, and I felt

My heart still ached from the sudden... rejection I had faced at Meghan's house. The confusion and hurt lingered within me, fueling my need for solace. As I left Meghan's house, I allowed my true self to emerge, transforming into my powerful wolf form. My fur glistened under the moonlight as I ventured into the depths of Trinity Woods.The woods embraced me like an old friend, offering a sanctuary where I could seek solace and find answers. The earth beneath my paws provided a steady rhythm, matching the thudding of my heart. Each step carried me further away from the pain of rejection and closer to the tranquility of the wilderness.The scents of the forest enveloped me, a tapestry of life and nature woven into the very fabric of my being. The crisp scent of pine mingled with the earthy aroma of damp soil, creating an intoxicating symphony that soothed my troubled spirit.Driven by a mixture of instinct and the need to regain my inner balance, I embarked on a hunt.

After being rebuffed once again by Meghan, I returned home to Trinity pack, seeking solace and a reprieve from the tumultuous emotions swirling within me. The encounter with Meghan had left me feeling hurt and confused, longing for answers that remained elusive. I decided to take a shower, hoping that the warm water would wash away the lingering anger and frustration. As the water cascaded over me, I closed my eyes, allowing the soothing sensation to calm my racing thoughts. Each droplet seemed to carry away a fraction of the turmoil that had consumed me, gradually easing the tension in my muscles. However, the emotional wounds remained raw, refusing to heal so easily. I had no idea what had happened at the end there, back in Meghan’s house. I did not know what sort of dynamic existed between us, and that made me frustrated and antsy. Coupled with the way she had suddenly rejected me, I did not know what she thought of me. I suddenly found myself wishing I had not met Meghan today

Meghan’s POVI tucked Emily and Ethan into their beds, their sleepy eyes watching me with innocence and trust. I leaned down, pressing a gentle kiss on each of their foreheads, silently wishing them peaceful dreams. "Goodnight, my sweet angels," I whispered softly, my voice filled with a mixture of love and regret. They murmured their sleepy goodnights, their small voices fading as they drifted into slumber.As I exited their room, a heavy weight settled in my chest, refusing to let me find solace in my own sleep. The events of the evening replayed in my mind, each moment etched with pain and confusion.I couldn't understand why I had let fear guide my actions, why I had pushed Lin away despite the bond he had formed with my children.Seeking a temporary escape from my troubled thoughts, I made my way to the kitchen. The soft glow of moonlight spilled through the window, casting shadows on the familiar surroundings. I reached for the bottle of brandy, its amber liquid promising tempo

As I made my way home, I decided to take a detour to the mall. The events of the day had left me feeling a mix of emotions, and I hoped that a change of scenery would offer some solace. The crowded mall buzzed with activity, but my mind remained preoccupied with thoughts of recent encounters and the complexities they brought into my life.My mind was focused on completing my errands efficiently, eager to return home to my children. It had been too long since I had seen their bright smiles, and my heart yearned for their warm embrace.I made my way through the mall, the hubbub of shoppers surrounding me, but I couldn't shake off the heavy weight of the day's events. Thoughts swirled in my mind, a mix of emotions battling for dominance. The change of scenery provided a temporary respite, but deep down, I knew I had to confront the complexities that had infiltrated my life.Lost in my own thoughts, I suddenly feel a familiar presence nearby.

To my surprise, it was Lin standing there, holding a small bag in his hand. His warm smile instantly put me at ease, and a flutter of excitement danced in my chest. It was as if the universe had sensed my need for a glimmer of hope and sent Lin to my doorstep."Meghan," Lin greeted me, his voice filled with warmth and genuine kindness. "I hope you don't mind me dropping by. I was in the neighborhood and thought I'd bring a little something for your kids."In other words, he came all the way from the other side of the city to pay us a visit. A wave of gratitude washed over me as I welcomed him inside. Lin's thoughtful gesture touched my heart, reminding me that there were people who cared about me and my children. We settled into the living room, where Emily and Ethan were engrossed in a game, their laughter filling the air.The sight of Lin interacting with my children, their faces beaming with joy, melted away the remnants of unease that had lingered within me.

Epilogue Six months later. “Emily, go get your Dad and Ethan to get ready or we are going to be late for the ceremony” “Okay, mom” Emily nodded and turned to leave while I continued to busy myself with Jaxon. His birth came at a time when we were going through the most difficult moment of our lives and I can’t help but cherish the bond I have with him. Jaxon looked like Ethan when he was a month old. A resemblance that was uncanny to their father. Our little family went from four to five and ever since my hands have been more than full. Having to care for my kids as well as carrying out my duty as Luna around the pack hasn’t been easy but thanks to Lin, I was given a year leave from my work as a lawyer even though I have a feeling I won’t be returning after that. Lin had already hinted that he was working on helping me start my own law firm where I can recruit and train other lawyers in neighboring packs so they can defend their territories the right way without wedging war on ea

Meghan’s POV."What's happening to him?" I demanded, desperate for answers but mother simply looked at him as though nothing was wrong even though Lin looked like he was undergoing something more life threatening at the moment.“The cursed blood is getting fused with his beast making the transformation twice as painful for a normal wolf”My eyes widen, “How do we stop it?”"It can’t be stopped, child. Lin has to learn to control the powers that plagues him," mother said, sounding unbothered. "Often times, great powers comes with great responsibility"Lin let out a strangled cry, curling into himself and I pulled him closer, wrapping around his frame even though my arms barely fit across his board shoulders."Mother..look at him, this is a freaking curse…there has to be a way to help him." I pleaded, looking up at her."I’m sorry, Meghan but not all curse are a curse! Some are actually blessings if and only if he learns how to control it. If he doesn’t then he will die”My heart sank a

Lin's POV I could feel the life force within me waning, the pain in my chest intensifying with every breath. But I refused to give in to defeat. Desperation surged within me, and I summoned every ounce of my strength but it was of no use against him.Vincent's claws dug deeper, pressed down against my chest, his grip tightening around my heart, and for a fleeting moment, terror coursed through me. The pain was excruciating, the sensation of my life being forcibly extracted unbearable.But in that moment, I felt a presence, a force surrounding me. From my peripheral I saw Meghan and her mother not far from the chaos. Her mother’s hand outstretched and enchanting some strange words.A surge of energy surged through me, a surge that matched the desperation in my heart. It was as if I had tapped into an ancient wellspring of power, a wellspring fueled by the love and determination of the two incredible women who held my heart in their hands, figuratively and literally.With newfound str

With the short bloody dagger still in my grip, I readied myself for the worst as the two rogue wolves closed in on me, their snarling faces contorted with hunger and aggression. I braced myself for the impending attack. My grip on the dagger tightened, the maternal instinct within me more than ready to protect the child cradled at the corner, not very far from me. The weight of responsibility bore down on me, and I was ready to face whatever threat came our way.The first one lunged at me, it’s claws slicing close to my cheek in a deadly swipe and causing me to stumble a few step back. Without hesitation, I swung the blade at its snapping jaw, only missing it by a few inches.My stand against them only made them angrier. I knew I stood no chance against them in my human form as my movement was too sloppy and still weak from childbirth. My wolf was of no use either, she was in no position to fight either. An hour or two could bring us more recovery but that seem to be the last thing

Meghan's POV.The atmosphere inside the safe house had grown thick with tension. My wolf paced restlessly within me, its agitated energy radiating throughout my being. It was as if an invisible thread connected me to Lin, and that thread was tugging me relentlessly toward the door.No matter how much I try to shake it off, it still lingered, getting heated right under my skin and making me even more restless.Gently, I laid our sleeping baby on the bed, swaddled in the softest blankets. My gaze lingered on his innocent face, and for a moment, I brushed a gentle finger against his cheek. He was a precious reminder of our love, and my heart ached to hold him close.Turning to Ethan, my seven-year-old son, I knelt before him, my hands on his small shoulders. "Ethan," I began, my voice gentle but firm, "Mommy needs to go out for a little while. I need you to be a big, brave boy and watch over your baby brother and Emily until I come back, okay?"Ethan nodded, his wide eyes filled with det

Lin POV.Chaos reigned, the eerie glow of the moon casting shadows over the relentless clash between our forces and Vincent's rogue wolves. The rogues kept multiplying in numbers since our initial encounter, and their determination was palpable, as if they were been driven by an unquenchable thirst for power.Leon, his eyes reflecting both exhaustion and unwavering determination, has been at the forefront of the defense. When it seem like our efforts were going to waste, his voice filtered through my mind, strained but resolute. "Lin, I don’t think we can hold them off much longer, it's like they're being fueled by some unseen force. They just keep coming."Zack, his wolf form mirroring my own determination, chimed in, "Leon's right. It's possible the gem is their power source. We need to find it and neutralize it if we want to break their momentum."My gaze swept over our burning village that was swimming with rogues, searching for any signs of the gem's presence.

Lin's POVAs I knelt beside Meghan and the kids, the weight of my actions pressed upon me like a leaden shroud. My heart pounded in my chest, each beat a painful reminder of the recklessness that had nearly cost us everything. Tears welled in my eyes, a mixture of relief at seeing my family unharmed and the overwhelming guilt for what I had put them through. I was a fool to trust that woman. I should have listened to Meghan when she wanted her out of our lives but I thought she could lead us to the solution to our problem.Sniffing back my tears, I leaned away, my gaze barely meeting hers. “I’m sorry, so sorry!”Meghan looked confused as her gaze bore into mine, her eyes a complex tapestry of emotions. “Lin, none of this is your fault.. If there is anyone to be blamed then it’s that vile woman”I shook my head, “No, you don’t understand.. I’m to blame too, I didn’t push her away when she offered.

The room had descended into utter chaos, the snarls of the intruding wolves piercing the air like a dreadful symphony.Panic threatened to claw its way into my heart, but I couldn't afford to succumb—not with the safety of my children hanging in the balance."Remember all we've practiced," I implored, my voice a steady anchor amidst the turmoil. I wished I could help - oh, how I wished so - but I was pretty much tucked out at the moment. It was a bother to even keep my eyes open! I had to fight just to stay awake. Over these few months, Lin had diligently drilled them on the basics of self-defense, honing their instincts and abilities. Now, in this moment of peril, that training was going to become their greatest ally.Ethan, standing steadfast by my side, made a promise that sent both pride and trepidation coursing through me.
