**THE BLOOD ROSE PACK**Just as I headed to the pack house, I saw Jayden and Aiden both standing in my way.“What's the meaning of this?” I asked, looking at each one of them.“Dad, welcome, we actually came here because we wanted to talk to you about the forthcoming anniversary of our pack.”Aiden stated.“What has the anniversary got to do with you two standing in my way?”“Well, that's because this is the only time we've got to talk to you,” Jayden replied.“What the hell are you talking about?”“Jayden's right dad. This is the only time we get to speak with you because we know for a fact that the moment you get to the pack, you'll only go to your mate!”“What? Don't tell me you still hold a grudge against my Luna. Don't you forget she's the mother of your mate.”“You don't like our mate so why should we care about yours?” Jayden muttered.“I see you both are hell-bent on making me mad. Out of my way this instant!”“Dad, can we at least talk about this before you go?”“Does it seem
**Alana's POV **“Argh!” I knocked down the fifth soldier in combat. I can't believe that I could defeat them, even with weapons in their hands.“Is that all you've got? Bring me more!” I ordered, looking at the rest of the soldiers. None of them were willing to step forward, and this surprised me a great deal because I had expected them to come at me.“What now? Aren't you going to defeat me? I thought you all said I was only a woman without strength?”“But that's all you are,” the soldier named Taylor said, walking up to me. I don't understand him. Ever since the first day he saw me here at the fields he seemed not to like me. I'm yet to know why he held such prejudice against me.“What's your problem with me, why don't you tell me, Taylor?”“Problem with you? You must be mistaken,” he said with a laugh."I don't have an issue. Maybe you're the one with problems, from the look of things."“I'm the one with problems, huh? So what do you want? If you want to fight with me, then you ca
**Alana's POV ***After much persuasion from Stephan, I found myself in the fields and training the soldiers. This was something, I never thought, was possible. I clearly said no to him but here I am standing in front of the soldiers and training them with the skills I had learned.I looked in the direction of Stephan, who nodded his head at me as a way of telling me that I was doing alright.But then I didn't fail to see Taylor's expression. He seems to be disgusted with my closeness with Stephan, and this is a situation that I can't understand, no matter how hard I try to.Just as I continued training the soldiers, Alpha and his new Luna came to the training fields. This felt awkward because after I heard about what happened with Stephan, I felt like I wouldn't be the treated nicely or even liked by the Alpha and his Luna.“Well, well, well. Who do we have here.” The Alpha said, walking toward me.“For the first time I feel so proud that a lady is leading the team. I know that thing
**Aiden's POV**“Keep searching, do not leave any stone unturned until my Luna and her daughter are both found, do you understand me?!”“Yes Alpha!” The soldiers replied and continued with the search at the border.“Brother, don't you think this is a futile search?”I looked at Jayden who was by my side.“What do you mean?”“The scent of our mate has long dissipated. I'm not, so sure Alana knows how to hide her smell. I mean, it's so perfect that no one would ever know.”“So, what are you saying in essence?”“What I'm trying to say is that she must have had help from someone we don't know. I have a strong feeling that this isn't as simple as it seems. We might actually need to find out more on our own.”“Jayden, we don't have that much time. It's our mate we are talking about, and by the way, I don't think things are as hard as you say. I mean, who do you think would dare to go against us and help her escape. Do you have anyone in mind?”“Uhm, no one comes to mind, honestly.”“Since n
***Jayden's POV***“She actually fled to the wolf pack.”“What?!” The three of us exclaimed in absolute shock. I mean, how was this even possible. This must be the greatest joke ever told.“Rachel, I think you're just saying anything that comes to your mind just to fulfill your once-in-a-lifetime dream to become the Luna of the great Blood Rose Pack!” Aiden spat.“You're right. Maybe that's what I want, but we just did a transaction, and you can't go back on your words now, can you?”“You don't have to worry about anything. As long as I'm alive, they'll be your mate, and you will be the Luna to the Blood Rose pack.” Our father assured Rachel.At first, I was against Aiden taking things too far. But at this point-of-sale, I don't think I should have blamed him for his decisions. It was obvious that our father had finally lost it. I mean, if he hasn't, why would he promise a rogue Luna position?“Dad, hold on, at this point, I can't help but say that you've lost it. Only someone who has
**Alana's POV***It's been over a week since I took the position as female coach of the wolf pack. Not only that, my mother's health has become better as well. Though she's locked in the dungeons, with the help of Stephan my mother is given special treatment, and her illness has subsided as well.Now she feels better. Knowing this gives me this feeling of satisfaction because she has always been my greatest worry. Thankfully, I don't have to worry about her anymore.Though, despite all this, there's this indescribable void I feel in my heart. I feel empty even though my mom was doing okay, and I think I know why.Though I've said to myself that I'm never going to be a part and parcel of the Blood Rose Pack, I wouldn't deny the fact that I think about my mates. I've not been marked but for the fact that I've shared an intimate relationship with them, hurts me so bad. I could hardly control what I felt, and I can't deny that I miss them terribly.While I was wallowing in my thoughts, I
***Alana's POV**“How dare he?!” I snapped, tightening my fist in anger.How did he find me?“Stephan, how do you think he found me? I thought you said you got rid of anything that they could trace me with?”“Yes, I said so, and that's precisely what I did. I don't think they found out you're here because they traced you. If that were to be the case, they would have found your way before now.”“You're right about that. If they truly know where I was, then they should have come after me.”“Then there's only one possibility as to how they found you.”Immediately, I took my gaze up at him.“Which is?”“Someone must have told them that you were here. Though I can't think of who that might be.”“You think there's a spy in the pack?”“I'm not so sure, but I'm certain that whoever it is must have provided information to them.”While we were having this conversation, one of the soldiers hurried into the dungeons.“Alpha Stephan, your father wants you to come with Miss Alana and her mother.”M
**Alana's POV**Seeing them all surround me without saying a word got me really upset. How could they come over to the restroom after what they did in the hall?In anger, I summoned the courage to walk away from them.“Out of my way!” I commanded in hopes that they'd get the hint and leave me alone, but to my greatest surprise, Jayden approached me and suddenly took my lips in a wild passionate kiss.I tried to resist but he deepened the kiss. It didn't take that long before I lost control and kissed him back with equal need. After he kissed me to his satisfaction, Aiden took over from where he stopped.The kisses held so much emotion and I poured all of my longings into it. It showed from the kisses just how much I had missed them.Caden took over from Aiden and kissed me like his life depended on it, while the others pulled my dress, exposing my bare shoulders and finally, my breasts.They kissed and caressed my shoulders and suckled on my nipples. I was so into it that I became ter
**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***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
***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**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
**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*“Alana!” My mates screamed and immediately rushed towards me. Caden pulled me up in his chest, but I was weak. I could hardly lift myself up and blood was dripping out of my mouth. It is no joke that I was dying.If I could sustain this much impact, I wonder how my wolf was. “Darling!” I heard my mom's voice as she rushed over to meet me. At this point, my mates let her carry me in her embrace.“Darling, why did you have to sacrifice yourself for them? If I had known this is what you had planned, I never would have given my powers to you!” She said and cried bitterly."Please don't cry mom, I'm okay.”“No you're not! You're not okay at all, you're dying.” My mom bursts into more tears. My mates let out painful growls. I wanted to tell them that it was okay, but I couldn't even speak anymore. To be honest, I could feel my powers slowly depleting. It wouldn't be long before all of my powers will be exhausted. By then I seriously don't know what I'll do.“Luna Hanna, what
***Alana's POV**The fight became bloodier because my mates didn't hesitate to kill the monsters but I feel sorry for them. They shouldn't die this way because it's not their fault that they became monsters. Rather it was the fault of Ralph.Even as my mates were fighting Ralph and injured him on his neck, he didn't stop laughing hysterically. "No matter what you do to me, my greatest happiness is the fact that I've taken revenge for my mate!" He said with blood gushing out of his mouth."You don't deserve to be kept alive. What makes you think getting rid of the entire werewolf race is what your mate want. You think she never had anyone she cared for while in the pack? She had a brother, bastard!"Aiden yelled at him angrily. Ralph looked somewhat shocked to hear this."What do you mean? You're lying to me. My mate does not have anyone.""Don't you think you're ridiculous? How dare you take revenge on an entire race when you don't even know your mate well enough?"Now that Aiden said
***Alana's POV***We just watched Ralph struggle with himself because as much as the chains burned his skin, it made him weak as well. This was exactly what we wanted. Something to make him weak, this way we'll be able to get the upper hand over things.While watching him, we noticed his growl was beginning to get lesser and lesser. This shows to a great extent that our plans are working out fine. Thanks to the goddess."You think you can kill me? I'm afraid to tell you that's impossible. You know why? Because I have armies everywhere. You all say I'm being cruel, have you any idea what they did to me?""What more could they have done to you to make you behave this way?" Jayden asked. Ralph suddenly began laughing like a maniac. "Have you ever spared the time to ask yourselves why I'm able to turn the Werewolves to what they are now? You think I would have been able to do that with just my vampire powers?"He was making sense."So, how why you like this? How come you can make werewolve
***Alana's POV***As soon as we appeared in the cave, I was shocked to see Ralph' inside, standing in front of us with his hands folded behind him. The growls we heard was coming from monsters which I just realized was chained in cages.They seemed to be screaming to be released. The place smells awful and I realise this was as a result of Blood. Just what the fuck had this vampire turned into."The nerve you have to stay calm after seeing us.". Aiden said with boiling anger bit never approached Ralph. This was because during our meeting we advised ourselves never to fight Ralph head on no matter how annoying he possess to be."I should welcome you all to my grand cave. What do you think about these creatures I created? They are magnificent, aren't they?"Looking at what he calls magnificent made me indeed realized that he had truly gone nuts. I mean, no sane person would do that which he had done to Werewolves."Ralph, last time we talked, I tried persuading you to stop what you're d
