**Alana's POV**After the coming together of all werewolf packs, I decided to go over to my mate only to see them having a silent conversation which made him raise a brow. I couldn't help but wonder what they were talking about so seriously and I slowly approached them.I should have known that no matter how careful I was, it wouldn't stop them from sensing me. They all turned around towards my direction at once.“My goodness! What were you all discussing that you all seemed to me in deep thoughts?”“Uhm, Alana,” Jayden was about to say when Caden and Aiden immediately grabbed him and covered his lips immediately.This was confusing.“What's going on? Why are you suddenly trying to stop him from speaking?” I asked.“It's nothing, Alana. Do not mind whatever that may come out from the lips of Jayden.”Aiden stated.Now, I'm more than curious to find out exactly what they are hiding from me. They seemed to be acting suspiciously so I couldn't help but wonder what all this was about.“Ho
***Alana's POV**My mom's mind was set to go back to the Rising Moon Pack, and there's nothing I can do to change her mind. To be honest, I wouldn't deny the fact that she's going back to where she belongs.The only thing that makes me feel sad is the fact that it was only after I've chosen to stay in the Blood Rose Pack, she wanted to go back home.In no later time, I was informed that James and Michelle are here.“Mom, the beta is here. I guess we should go see them.”My mom agreed, and we all set out to welcome them.Just as I was about to embrace Michelle, I noticed a bump that made me look downwards, and to my greatest shock, it was her tummy.Instantly, I lifted my gaze up at Michelle.”“Oh, my goodness! Is this what I think it is?” I asked, wide-eyed.She nodded her head shyly while rubbing her stomach.“My goodness! I'm so proud of you.” I pulled Michelle into a warm hug. While we were hugging, James suddenly came over.“James!” I called out the moment he showed up. I slowly p
***James POV***“W…what? You can't be serious about what you just said, Alpha.”“Don't be like that, James. I'm very much serious about what I just said. I see no one else leading the pack besides you.”“But this is too much. Are you abandoning your pack?”“What do you mean? I'll never abandon my pack. It's just that I have to be with my mates, and I guess I don't need to explain why. Now that you have a mate, I'm sure you know how it is.”James shut his eyes and took a deep breath.I understand you, Alpha Alana. But if you give up on the pack now, it'll appear you're trying to give up on your father's hard work.”“Oh please don't talk like that. You know I'll never give up. Okay, let's put things this way. Let's say I'm putting you in charge of the pack for the meantime, that I'll not be there. What do you say about that?”At this moment, I noticed his worried expression slowly relaxed.“If you put things this way, then I'll gladly watch over the pack for you.”I smiled, now that he
***Alana's POV***What? I stood up all at once. I can't believe what I just heard.“What are you talking about, Marcus?”“Like I earlier mentioned, I would rather not bring this matter to you, knowing it's a delicate matter.”“What do you mean, sensitive matter? You ought to have brought this to my notice before now!” I said, getting up from my chair.“My pack is being attacked, and I'm the last to know?”I was on the verge of going mad.“Luna, please calm down. We are letting you know because like I earlier said, the Alphas are on an important mission.”“So, what are you suggesting?”The elders all stared at one another.“Since it has come to this, we can as well choose the strongest in our pack to protect them.”“Hell no, that would never happen. You don't expect me to just sit here and wait. I'm worried about death.”“What are you talking about, Luna?” Marcus asked and the other elders all looked at me with a surprised expression.I came in front of them, my hands on my hips and my
**Alana's POV***As soon as I went to the visitor's hall, I was shocked to see my mom, pacing worriedly. I could tell she's this way because she wanted to see me.“Mom!” I called out, and she looked in my direction.When she saw me, she instantly went wide in shock and rushed over to meet me with arms wide open.“Oh, my dear! I'm so glad to see you.”“Mom, thank goodness!” I said with eyes closed as I pulled her into a deep, warm hug with eyes closed.Just then, she moved away and pulled away from the hug at once. At first, I was confused why she acted that way. I noticed as she looked down at my stomach and let out a loud gasp.“Oh, my goodness! You're pregnant, Alana.” She exclaimed, wide-eyed.“Yes, mom.” I said with tears in my eyes. She instantly bursts into tears while looking at me. “This is the best thing I've seen so far. My dear, I'm so proud of you,” she muttered, with tears trickling down her eyes.“I'm pleased you are, mom. You do not know just how much I've wanted to sho
**Alana's POV**I winced in pain as I left the kitchen. My feet have become numb since I've been standing all evening to prepare dinner. It was too much for me, but then it's not like I have a choice. When it was my turn to make dinner, the maids never helped me. I alone catered for the whole pack's meals.My father, the Alpha of the Rising Moon Pack, died in the battle with the Blood Rose Pack, I, his only daughter, also faced being sentenced. Weal and woe, my mother happened to be the mate of new Alpha, she pleaded with her mate to have mercy on me before falling into a coma. So, I was pardoned and was able to stay at the packhouse as a slave.But, my life here was worse than that of a slave’s. I managed to drag myself away from the ambience of the kitchen and headed straight to my room. As soon as I got in, I heaved a silent sigh of relief.Finally, I'm going to rest my back on my little iron bed. Though there was no foam on my bunk bed, it was better than nothing.But then, before
**Alana's POV**As soon as I got to class, the bell rang for the first subject. Sh*t! It was chemistry class and I'll be having a test. I can't afford to get any more late.Just as I was rushing to class, I suddenly bumped into someone.“Ouch!” I quickly looked up only to see Stephan. Instantly, a smile spread across my face.“Stephan!” I called with so much relief. He's the only one who actually cares for me in the whole pack.“You're late Alana. You need to get to class so you can take the test.”“Yes,” I replied.“Well, well, well. Who do we have here,” the familiar voice immediately made the blood in my vein run cold.I slowly turned around only to see my worst enemy, Rachel, and the triplets behind her. Instantly I felt sick to my stomach. Why are they here so soon?“Stephan, don't tell me you actually have a thing for this slave, do you?” Jayden asked as he walked towards us. Meanwhile, the others folded their hands and stared at me with an evil smirk on their faces.Currently,
***Alana's POV***After spending the rest of the afternoon with Stephan at our secret place, I decided to head back to the pack house.Getting there, I was relieved to know the Alpha is not in the pack. He hated the very sight of me, probably because of my father, who used to be the Alpha of the Rising Moon Pack.I should go see my mom in the private infirmary where she's kept. Though the Alpha gave a rule for no one to visit his Luna and that included me, her daughter. But then, I always find my way to my mother's bedside.My mom has been in a coma for three years now, ever since our original pack was invaded and my mother was saved because she happened to be the second-chance mate of the Alpha of Blood Rose Pack.Just as I was about heading to her room, I unknowingly walked in on Rachel and the triplets having sex in the mini parlor which was specially made for them.Shit!I turned around with my back against them. My heart was thumping heavily, especially when I heard Rachel's loud
