NIXIE’s POVCiara, is the most intelligent woman in the entire pack that I could not help or resist giving my all in all to her, because she just deserves everything that she needs from me.I loved that she was more than eager to help myself and Jacob out whenever we needed their help and she also paid attention to every detail, no matter how little or unnecessary that it felt or sounded like.Not only that, but even though she did not know much yet, she was solely committed to blood and giving her attention to everything that had to do with the blood and health of other people, unlike me.It was very easy for me to look into the health of others, test them, and discern what was up and wrong with them but it was not so easy to do a lot that had to do with blood.Most times before I discovered how much of a wolf that I was, I ran away from anything that had to do with pains whether blood gushing out or anyways, and it was funny to me and so embarrassing that I had to keep it from every
NIXIE’s POVAlana could not stop going over how there was danger in our going for war or that something bad was going to happen that will make us cry and feel unhappy.It was getting so much lately that I did not know how to respond to it, there was only little that I could do to feel okay about it and also make her feel okay as well and that was all I had tried to do.To me, this stopped her from complaining about every other thing but it was still not so nice or good enough that she had something more important to talk about and that was one topic I did not want to hear or even talk about at all.She was hell bent on asking me to tell Titan on her behalf since we were all aware that he would pay little or no attention to what she was saying or even though he was concerned, he would not try to show it.Showing it could mean a type of fear or laziness that he would not like to exhibit at all as the pack Alpha and the one everyone expected to be strong enough or even stronger than the
NIXIE’s POVI somehow could not behave like I used to because something had happened to me and it was so terrible that I could not explain what it was or even why I was feeling the way I felt.One thing was constant and it was that the feeling was similar to what she was feeling as well since I was calm with everything that was going on.Not only was it like I had a similar feeling, but my father, the great pack elder, had taught me just how to cope with issues that were relating to this and I felt I was doing well and better already.At first, it was almost brain draining and damaging to cope with Alana and her endless quest but a little while after speaking to the pack elder who I now call father, I was able to cope just fine.Not only was it easy for me to do everything he asks that I do, because I had already learned just how to obey him and I have seen the good in it, even without my dear brother Titan advising me on what to and not to do.Immediately after I became a wolf and ha
NIXIE’s POV I could not help but notice how comfortable Alana was sitting on the bed like nothing had happened to her even though I heard that she was at the point of death only a few minutes ago.Now, I drew my pants up a little as if getting ready to battle with what was in front of me, and finally decided to smile sweetly to her.There was nothing smiling sweetly could do to her or even for in particular, but because I needed us to flow well, I decided to go from that angle for good rapport.If I smiled at her, then it meant that I wanted to talk to her and so talking with ease to her will not be difficult even though I did not want to, but smiling to her already eased the air.Since the tension she had caused for me and all were now lessened, then it would be best and easier for me to hug her, pet her and make her feel alright. It was a trick my father gave me to help out with treating Alana and it had worked before so I did not doubt the ability for it to work well again, and m
NIXIE’s POVI had the opportunity to get up from the bed but I just couldn’t because I was enjoying the sleep so much that I did not want to get up or even stop holding Alana.Alana was sleeping soundly finally and I could hear her breathe in and out calmly like a baby. I became tempted to ask her to let me spend every night with her.I now had my own room in the pack house but that did not mean I did not have the opportunity to go back to the city to spend some nights and even days there, once in a while.It was good as I had things to do there so I took the chance to get some things done at the city and leave the pack house a little a little every time.Now, it was best for me to wake up and do the things that needed to be done, but I somehow couldn’t since I felt one tranquility I had not felt in a long time.Not only did I start to dream of a life with the man of my dreams, where everywhere was filled with love, peace and happiness, but I had this kind of joy that was inexplicable
NIXIE’s POVI knew those who I could treat anyway I liked and those who I would not try to do such a thing for even though it was not like they owed me anything or I was afraid of them, it was nothing like that.There was this servant girl who was always disobedient and hell bent on doing things that were the opposite direction of what she has been asked to do, and I was expedient to meet her at the door.It would have been just fine if I met her at the door as that will help me well with being able to pour out the aggression I had for her even before this time, but she was lucky enough not to fall into my trap.I knew that even though she did not fall into my trap now, she would one time in the future and I would just calm down till then for her, and attend to the damsel in front of me instead.As I started to speak to her, trying to ask her what was going on with her, she was weeping profusely and it got me not just confused but also agitated because I hated it when people around me
NIXIE’s POV It was quite obvious that in one way or the other, what she had come to say was going to be about my father, or maybe about her or the both of them at the same time.I was still waiting for her to speak up as I stood still waiting for her to dry up her tears and say something to me.But I got the shocker of my life and not what I was expecting at all, instead of her saying anything to me, she went all silent.And even when I gave her very puzzled looks, she acted like she did not get the signals that I was passing to her and kept staring at me.The only good thing about all that was going on here was that she was trying to look better by wiping her tears and putting a fake smile on.Why did it look like everyone was just looking for ways to mess up with my emotions today and they did not think about how I was feeling on the other hand.She still kept up with her fake smiles even though I knew on the inside that she was not yet feeling good at all.I finally gathered the c
NIXIE’s POVNow that I thought about my father, I wondered why she did not inform him about whatever it was that had happened to her or was wrong with her before she came to meet me.I mean, he was one of the best in giving advice to people and we all had gotten even more than half of our wisdom today from him so I wondered why she did not speak to him yet.Even she had affirmed how she had learnt so much from him and how she said she had wanted to be like him or myself in the future.That is even if I was like him and I did not even know what to say to reply to her that day so I kept mute and gave her a smile afterwards.Maybe I would have had the confidence to tell her that I was just like my father if I had known him before this time.It hurt me indeed that I did not get to know him early because I feel that if I did, then I would be the best person to be like him because I already looked like him in character even without being around him for a long time or for long enough.I cher
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
