PACK ELDER’s POVIt was better as I knew I was without a daughter than knowing that I had a daughter but anyways, life without a daughter I did not know was frustrating.When it came to mind that she also had characteristics like mine, the fact that she could be my daughter dawned on me and got me really scared.I was afraid about what I would do to myself when I discovered that my fears were true and she was mine.Just how would I be able to cope with such news? It would lead to much more suffering for me but I decided to still take my chances.That was when I told Titan that I had information for him concerning a spy because I thought she had come to cause more trouble.I imagined that it would be like the time when they were children when they were always fighting and there was no peace for them at all.If it would happen again that way, then it meant that Titan might not be able to rule as well as the pack Alpha and that is not good enough.He was the one I knew now, the one I lov
TITAN’s POVI watched as the pack elder moved closer to Nixie and I almost thought I saw fear in his eyes, maybe he was afraid that he was wrong or afraid of what he was about to do.Did it mean he was going to kill her and bring her back to life? We both knew that he could not do that because it would simply mean that he turned her to a wolf and she was not one before now so he was wrong.Now it made sense to me the reason why this man was head over heels in love with me or always trying to make me feel better when I wasn’t.He was doing all of these because in a way he was a father to me, if there was something I never knew was possible it had to be this.I was a crazy thinker but somehow I had never thought about this, not for once in my entire life that I had a step father or step sister or even any more family than my mother and father who were dead.How did Nixie grow up then as a human being, and just how difficult must have it been for her to grow as an orphan.I had a stepfa
TITAN’s POVAfter staring at Nixie bleeding and not doing anything about it other than just opening and closing her eyes, I became convinced that she truly was a wolf and not human like the rest of us.If not, it was totally impossible for her to be comfortable with pain and not do anything to shake out of it and I wondered what more could happen.It was already minutes and they were not saying anything or doing anything to struggle off from each other that I began to suspect the pack elder.Could it just mean that they were both undergoing some kind of incantation or sacrifice that I knew nothing of and she was getting under the influence of some kind of power that even she was not ready for?I somehow knew that this could not be the case since the pack elder was someone who hated anything fetish with his life and was hell bent on clearing all the witches out of the world before he died.He said that once a shamma told him when he was much younger and full of rage and anger to kill t
NIXIE’s POVAs the pack elder digged his fingers deep into my neck, it was like I was going through a trance because I could no longer fill anything around my environment.In my unconscious consciousness, I was wondering just how possible it was for my neck flesh to pave way through for his fingers to dig deep into it and how I only felt the pain once.Maybe if I was not a doctor then maybe I would just think it was possible for a finger to be in my body and it would not cause me much pain but that is a lie.This was not normal and the fact that this was happening should be checked, I wish he could just pull his hands out but at the same time it was like we were gummed together.We were not only fixed together and I was unable to move anywhere, but I started feeling different, it was more like I was getting dizzy and I could not say why.Maybe I should just try to take myself off of the grip he had on me, I thought but I could not do anything.It was like the pains were giving me stre
NIXIE’s POVBut at the same time I became emotional when I caught the glimpse of the both of them (Titan and the pack elder) crying and smiling at the same time.Nothing could make me feel more teary and happy like that moment because I felt that Titan was even loving me the more and I was so glad.I was loving this new way I looked and it was now like at this moment, my human part was completely gone and I was a wolf.Titan kept staring at me and did not know what to say or do at all, but that did not stop me from screaming and crying like the wolf I had become.The pack elder then came closer to me and asked me to relax since everything was going to be all fine and good with me so I did so.It was somehow surprising that I could still hear clearly and respond to what everyone was saying around me but I did nothing about it.Not only was it an amazing experience for me to finally experience everything it was that I had only had the opportunity to dream about yet I could not do, it wa
NIXIE’s POV“What you both had for each other was not love per say or strong feelings and that was the reason you were largely unable to understand what it was or what it meant.”What was it then? I was pushed to ask even though I knew he was about to tell me what it was all about because I wanted to make sure he said it without missing anything from it.“You know I just told you about how you both were bonded specially and it caused a lot of troubles at the same time, right?”“Yes, pack elder” I said and he responded with a sad look that I started to think he wanted me to call him father but it was ridiculous to me so I ignored it.Not only was it something that I could not think about doing now, I had not expected him to think I will join right in on him and accept him as my own.Maybe I will try that later on in the future, but for now, I was trying my best to take all the terrible thoughts I had and was thinking about my mother.My mother was supposed to love me and care for me de
NIXIE’s POV We got up and went outside to another part of the pack house that I knew well now and I wondered where we were going.Obviously, we were going to some place in the area, it would either be a room in the pack house or somewhere around the place.Whatever the case was, it was obvious and plain that we were going to a place where issues would be settled but I still had fears in me a little.What if we were going to a place that I would be disposed of?But at the same time, was it possible for Titan to dispose of his one and only sister? Someone he was in love with already.I did not want to trust the pack elder just one bit but he was my father and won’t he try to do something for his beloved daughter after all these years.All this time he was not with me and I am sure that even though he did not love me as much as he loved my mother, a part of him missed me and genuinely wanted me around him.Now that he wanted me around, and I was here, he would not let go of me just like
ALANA’s POVIt was obvious that I was becoming irritated with all that was going on but I still did my best to keep my cool.Not only was I being as kind as I could, I was also trying my best to avoid any stress in the best way possible because that was all I could do for myself and my baby at this time.My baby was the first one on my mind and I was going to do anything to protect my child, and myself so I would give birth well.For some days now, I feel the baby kicking and my eyes well up with tears of joy. Sometimes I tell Titan and I see how happy he looks as well.One thing was certain and it was that this child was going to be born into a beautiful family, one that loves it so much already.It was just divine to have a partner like this and pack members who could do anything for me, and I was glad that this place was always a place of peace for me.Somehow, all my life here, I tried as much as I could to avoid any form of trouble or stress coming my way because I did not want t
Titans POVI stared at the open field in front of me. Vultures screeched above me and some poured down to the field to devour the deer carcass that laid there.Kargo and Jacob stood by my right side, staring at me and speaking in whispers. I did not mind. They could say whatever they wanted. My mind was pretty occupied at the moment.We had moved from the valley of death to the open field a little bit far off north from our pack compound. Jacob and Kargo had pleaded for me to go to the pack compound with them but I refused it. I decided it best to sit here in the pouring rain and think everything that was happening through.What the shaman had said to us still stuck in my head, unable to leave. No matter how hard I had tried to wipe it off my mind, it still stayed. I wanted so much to not believe what he had said but I didn't find a reason not to no matter how hard I tried.I had wanted to ask him who the wolf prints that we had seen belonged to but he disappeared just as fast as he h
Lucian's POVWe marched into the pack compound, waving at the people who had gathered at the gate. The elders too had gathered and they bowed down as I passed by, having the knowing look in their eyes. I knew they were mad at me for my behavior recently. Now that I didn't have any reason to go after Alana again, I made a mental note to speak with the elders later and apologize to them for my behavior. But first, I had to meet with Diana."Where's Diana?" I asked one of the guards that was standing beside my horse. I immediately recognized who I was talking to and rephrased my question. "Where is your Luna?""I do not know, Alpha, Lucian," the guard responded as he bowed down slightly. I tapped his shoulders and gave him the reins of my horse before walking away to look for Diana. I walked over to the infirmary to search for her, thinking that's where she would be since Flora was taking care of her and the baby but I didn't find her there. The whole place was empty. It was then that I
Diana's POVI sat on my bed as hot tears poured from my eyes. Lucian's actions now we're beginning to hurt more than before. I didn't know why he couldn't acknowledge the fact that my daughter and I were more than enough for him. Whenever I asked him why he could not do that, he would always denied it and tell me that he did know that I and his daughter were enough for him. But then if I asked him why he was still going after Alana, he would keep mute.His behavior was beginning to sicken and annoy but it was also beginning to worry me. I didn't know what would happen if he wins Titan in the fight and brings Alana home. If she does get pregnant, Lucian would begin to prioritize her over I and his daughter. She might even give birth to a son which would make matters worse."Arrrrgh," I mumbled as I pulled at my hair. Thinking about everything was draining my energy but I still had not come to any conclusion that would be of help to me. I knew if Alana came back to the pack, she would d
Lucians POV"We went after her but we didn't see her," Titan replied me. "All that we saw were wolf paw prints where she had landed.""I do not fucking believe you, Titan," I said with a growl. I could not believe Titans word. There was no way he did not have Alana with him."I give you my word, Lucian, I am notlyinge," Titan said with a frown. "I am most definitely not with Alana." As Titan said those words, I felt a cold rush over my body. If Alana was not with Titan, where then was she? Had she gone missing? Was she killed? And the wolves paw prints that Titan had seen where she had landed, did that mean that a rival pack had taken her? Or had she been killed by wild wolves? There was no way she could have been killed by wolves as she was a Luna and was powerful enough to bring any wolf to their knees. And if she had been captured by other packs, either I or Titan would have been alerted. If she was not killed and was not taken hostage by other packs, where then was she? As if r
Titans POVI walked into the weapons room and wents straight to the inner room. I picked my battle armor that I had hung on the wall and put it on. I then took Alana's cloth piece and tied it around my sword handle. With a loud sigh, I sheathed my sword and marched outside.Jacob and the twenty warriors were already on their horses and standing by the compound gate, waiting for me. As I walked towards them, I turned to my side and saw Clara and Charlotte standing and watching me as I walked by. I could see the pain in their eyes as they put their gaze on me."What conclusion did you come to after meeting them?" I asked Jacob as I walked up to him."Meeting who?" he asked, handing the reins of my horse to me."Clara and Charlotte," I replied, grabbing the reins. I put my legs on the saddle and pulled myself until the horse with a groan."They blamed themselves for what Nixie did," he said with a croak. "I told them not to. Nixie is a smart grown woman so she knows and understands the c
Alana's POVI stepped out of Johnson's car with my son in my arms and stared at the huge mansion in front of me. The building was so huge and I was confused as to why a man would live in it alone.As if reading my thoughts, Johnson said, "I, my wife, my daughter and my two sons used to live here until they died in an accident.""I'm so sorry," I said as I noticed his sad face.He shrugged and said, "that was four years ago so I'm over it. Still hurts but it's best one takes their mind off somethings because continuously thinking about it can cause more damage than the first pain." As he spoke, I could hear the pain in his voice. He immediately suppressed it and wore a huge smile on his face. "They asked for me to sell the house after they died but I could not," he continued as he closed his car door and locked it with his key. "Couldn't let go of it so I refused to. Now I live in a house with five rooms all alone. Well, at least today will be different," Johnson said, giving me a wa
Lucian's POVI had no trust in Titan and I knew that he would be coming with his army. That was why I decided to come with mine.I walked into my weapons room and began to select my weapons that I would use for the war. I picked up a sword and spear before heading into the armor room.I picked up my armor and stared at the scratches that were on it. I remembered the battle of yesterday and how close I had missed a spear that had been thrown to me. The spear had just missed my side by a hairs breadth but had scratched my armor, giving it a mean mark.I ran my hand over the engraved mark and sighed. I was going to battle again in just under twelve hours. I sighed and placed the worn out armor back on the wall.I then walked over to another that laid on the table and picked it up. It had my packs insignia engraved on it's chest plate and had claw marking by the side.I wore the armor, fully dressed and grabbed my weapons from the table where I had kept them. I then walked over to my helm
Titans POVI sighed as I watched the crow fly away, my letter tied to its feet. I have heard Kargos advice to me but I took the other. He had explained to me why I should let Alana go but I knew not to do that. There was no way I could let Lucian have her after all the evil that he had done to her. There just was no way.His other idea of proposing an Alpha to Alpha battle was good and I decided to go with it. If I was to win, I would have Alana to myself and Lucian would not have any reason to interfere in either I or her affair again. I sighed and stood in front of my room door. The cold wind blew against my face and from the dark clouds that were beginning to gather, I knew that a heavy storm was coming. I looked up at the sky, waiting for Lucian's reply. I knew that there was no way Lucian would deny my request as his pride was too high for that."Has he replied your request?" Jacob asked as he walked up to me. I looked to my side and saw him walking towards me with a small dagg
Alana's POVI woke up to the sound of a beeping monitor. I opened my eyes slowly and looked to my side. I saw a long tube running from a bag hung up on, just like before, a pole was passing the liquid from the bag down into my wrist. I tried to remove it again but my bandaged hand could not do anything.Suddenly, I heard a slight noise.I turned to my side and saw a small stroller standing beside my bed. The stroller shook and a small crying was coming from within. I raised my head slowly and looked inside. A small baby laid within, tossing and turning as it cried.The baby suddenly stopped crying, as if noticing my presence and began to coo happily. I stared at the baby and I didn't know why I felt so inclined towards the baby. I raised my injured hand and touched the side of the baby cheeks. Feeling their skin against mine gave me some kind of peace that I had never felt."You look so beautiful," I said with a smile as I rubbed the baby's cheeks. The baby cooed happily and gave me
