**Alana's POV***My mom narrated everything that happened to her after I had left. Honestly, what she told me wasn't what I had expected to hear. I thought she'd tell me how badly she was being treated in the Blood Rose pack.“Mom, you mean you weren't treated for the years I was gone?”“I wasn't my love. Isn't it strange? When you left, I was so ready for whatever treatment I might have to face, but was shocked when none of that happened to me.”This baffled me greatly. So, Caden was right when he said my mom had been living in comfort. I didn't believe what he said back then because I thought he was saying all that just to get me to go back to the pack. What excites me most was when my mom told me Alpha Wade still hasn't woken up from coma. Finally, the goddess is on our side."Alana, tell me, didn't you notice something different about your mates? I was hard on them, but I didn't fail to notice just how much they've changed over the years.“Mom, to be honest, I saw these changes ev
**Alana's POV***I shut my eyes and summoned Amalia, who answered immediately, and the next thing I knew I was on all fours. My wolf glowed as usual, and it attracted both the enemies and soldiers of the Blood Rose pack. I strolled towards the enemies, who all stared at me with great fear.I growled loudly and the monsters all fell to their knees and roared out in pain. Those who could escape ran for their dear lives.“Shut your ears if you do not wish to perish with the enemies!” James screamed out from behind me. Everyone shut their ears, but my mates did not. They all shifted into their wolf forms and gathered around me as I growled.They seemed to form a protective cover around me until the enemies surrendered, with some dead and others injured.When I was done, we all turned back into our human forms, and I must say that my mates looked at me differently. I can imagine just how shocked they must feel.“Take the survivors to the dungeons for questioning!” Aiden ordered his soldier
**Jayden's POV***As I walked back to my room, I couldn't help but reprimand myself for being so foolish. How did I not realize that I was about to do the same thing I had advised my brothers not to do?Alana wanted us to treat her nicely and not like a slave. I understand all that, but then, I was still the one who broke the promise and did that which I'm not supposed to do. How could I have been so stupid?Getting to my room, I laid on my bed, contemplating what I had done earlier. I wouldn't deny the fact that when I kissed her, my wolf wanted more. I was sex starving, and I wanted sex with no one but her.I can't tell how long I've been rolling in bed for, but when I looked up at the wall clock, it was 1: am. Shit! I can't believe I've been awake until midnight.Suddenly, I heard Aiden and Caden's door. I knew it was them because my room was in between theirs. I can tell when their room doors openvir closes.Where could they be heading to at this time of the night? To race their w
**Alana's POV***“We've been awake since your conversation with Jayden.”They all smiled, looking at me with so much happiness. I wouldn't deny that seeing them all happy made me calm. It appeared I could trust them, even though I knew that would be a risk on my part."Alana, you seem to have been stressed these days. Why don't you take a few days to rest?” Aiden asked.I looked at the others, and judging from their expressions, I could tell that they share the same view as Aiden."So, you want me to stay behind so you can have your dubious ways with me, huh?”“What? Of course not. Didn't we all fall asleep together, Alana?” Caden asked.“Yes, we did,” I replied with a raised brow.“If we could all sleep together without touching you, doesn't this prove that you are safe with us?”Aiden asked with a grin.“You want me to believe that I'm safe with you?”“Not that. You're our mate, and it's only right for us to treat you with care.”From Aiden's expression, I could tell that he meant e
**Alana's POV**“I'm sorry, but it is my duty to protect my Luna. There's no way I'm letting you near her.”“How dare you obstruct me?!” Caden raised his fist to hit James, but I screamed out to stop him. “Don't you dare hurt him, Caden!”Caden turned his gaze towards me. From his expression, I could almost tell that he hates me.“How could you be so cruel, Alana? Why can't you see that what you're doing will only make us hate your beta!”“Things wouldn't have gotten to this point if only you're willing to listen to me. You have refused to understand me or what I'm saying. How can we ever agree?”“We are your mates and hence we have a right to talk to you about what you shouldn't do!” Aiden yelled.“And this is the reason we can never be together!” I screamed out at him.“You never listen to me, how do you expect me to listen to you, then?!”If only they could understand the reason I was saying this, but they rather stared at me as if I were the bad guy. Why do they always do this to
***Aiden's POV**My brothers and I mourned the departure of our mate and wondered why she couldn't be with us. Why does it seem like she's fallen for James?She listens to him more than me and my brothers.Just as we were about to disperse, one of the pack soldiers charged into the hall to meet us.“Alpha, there's trouble outside the pack. We are being attacked again.” He said, panting.“What?” My brothers and I exclaimed at once.I dashed over to the soldier, “Who is attacking?”“The monsters, and it turns out that Luna and her men are being attacked as well.”The moment I heard this, I looked in the direction of my brothers, who went wide in shock.Without time-wasting, Jayden stormed out of the pack house. Caden and I followed behind quickly.“Why did she have to insist on leaving, knowing the enemies could attack again?” Caden complained as he marched to the battleground.“I swear I'll kill them if anything happens to my mate!” Jayden said in a rage. There's no need to talk about
***Caden's POV**I rushed over to Aiden to see what he was trying to show us. “Did you see the burnt bodies? It appeared there was a fire during the battle.”“You're right, Aiden. From what you've observed, what wolf do you think has the power to burn monsters with their growls?”“The…moon wolves!” Aiden said at once.“What? If that's the case, isn't it obvious that the person who might have done this is our mate?” Jayden asked. I nodded my head and so did Aiden.“Indeed, it was our mate who was responsible for this.”“She's indeed the moon wolf.” Aiden muttered.“I had never for once, doubted what she said though, brother. Did you actually doubt her back then?” Jayden asked.Aiden shook my head.“Not doubting her. Just that I didn't pay that much attention to what she said. The only thing I knew back then was that I wanted her to stay in the pack. I didn't want her to be far away from us.”“Well, that's understandable.” Just as we were talking about this, I suddenly caught a sweet sc
**Alana's POV***Staying in the Blood Rose Pack wasn't helpful at all as we were once again attacked and this time, we lost more than the number we lost before now.“I need to go out there. It's me they want!” I struggled to go out but Jayden, who kept watch over me, refused. “I won't let you go out there, Alana, it's dangerous!”“Dangerous? Staying here is more dangerous if you ask me. Do you have any idea what's going to happen to your pack from now on? Do you have any idea what will happen next? As long as I don't go out there, they'll keep trooping in. Why not let me go to face them since it's me they want?” I queried Jayden.At this moment, Jayden looked into my eyes with a serious expression. There's no doubt that he's seriously mad at me. Well, it's not like it's my fault to begin with. If only he had listened to me and let me go, we wouldn't have had to go through all these processes.While I was with Jayden in the pack house meeting room, I heard growls and painful screams fr
