TITAN'S POVI have started to do all I said I would do for my mate but I don't just get what the problem is with Alana.Only if I knew the problem, maybe I would be able to solve it and make her feel happy and special again.She had this dull look almost always in her eyes and even my wolf scented how cold she was most of the time.Other times, when I did something special for her to be happy, she would suddenly be lit up and joyful but the next second everything would go back to the way it was.I know something was wrong and up with her and the fact that I couldn't even decipher it was way worse and made it so SD for me. The one time we tried to make love, she was feeling the moment but suddenly her mood changed and she went so silent that I had to stop and cuddle her to sleep.I knew she was thinking about something that hurt her that night and I tried to talk to her but she wouldn't say a word.Time is running so fast and I might have to take extra measures into getting her back t
ALANA'S POVGetting Titan to come to my room today again was a great miracle that I did not even believe I deserved myself.I knew that if it was Lucian I did half of how I did to him, I would have been long forgotten and even labeled as dead.But Titan showed how much he loves me by coming back despite the cold attitude I was giving him and the way I was treating him.It was just a night ago that we were making love and I suddenly went stiff with so many thoughts flowing through my head.He noticed that I was no longer responding and decided to take it easy with me and he even stopped riding me just to cuddle me.I wanted to tell him to continue but words failed me and I was so confused as to why my body was behaving this way.It felt as though I was already too used to being beaten and suffered that I could not accept the good that was happening to me.It was hard to believe that someone would adore me and love me this much even though it was all I ever prayed for.But with Lucian,
ALANA'S POVThe dance night ended, and Lucian and myself did not discover anything different about ourselves.I had liked him for a very long time before then and sometimes I feel weirdly drawn to him and I must admit that the same thing happened that night but I shrugged it off.I knew that we could not be together, but I also knew that he liked me as a friend and admired me because he had told me a couple of times when we were growing up together.Who wouldn't like me or even love me? I was everything a male wolf would want in his mate and I got so many stares every time I walked around the pack and even the wolf village.I enjoyed the attention I was always getting but I had not just found my mate just yet and it was coming to pass in the way I least expected it.It was since then that I got to know that things could happen in ways I never expected or imagined and that was just the kind of world I was living in.Very early the next morning, I was summoned by Lucian's mother who tol
TITAN'S POV It was a shock to me that someone had gone through this much and she was still trying to be sane. And it became more obvious to me why she was always looking lost and thinking about so many things at the same time. It was obvious that she was still traumatized by the kind of life she was living before this time that it was hard for her to love again. Although it was not like she did not love me at all, she was somehow shocked that someone would love her this much and she felt guilty that she had wasted so much of my time. I promised within myself that I would kill Lucian if I set my eyes on him any day or anytime or he would have to kill me. He was not a worthy Alpha to have done such a thing to his pack member, even if he did not see her as a prospective mate. I do not know Diana but I know that she was not as beautiful as my Alana was, who would be more beautiful than this angel? She was perfect in shape, size, her eyeballs were also so beautiful and she had the m
DIANA’S POVI entered what seemed to be a hideout for people who were haunted and I wondered just how Lucan would feel if he saw me in this compromising situation and what my excuse would be.Of course I had every reason to be where I was and he should even thank me for being more proactive than he was at the moment because I couldn’t even see what he was doing to our present situation.For so many days he has been moping around, trying as much and hard as he could to avoid me and this would not even help us to make more babies. I needed to be pregnant again.I knew what his fears probably were, maybe he was afraid that my taking in again would make us go through another emotional trauma but I could not but take my chances.Here I was now, in the place almost all the wolves dreaded, the witches place because I needed to know that even if what the Shamma said was correct, I still had hope and an option of bearing a child, because it was not just any child now, but the heir to the thron
DIANA'S POVI knew that it might not go down the way I planned it to be but I would still do it without regrets no matter what happens.Coming here alone took me a lot of stress and sacrifice so I would not go until I have found a solution to the issue at hand.Lucian had caused this, because if he had spoken up on time about what could be done, then maybe I would be a little patient to a point.I asked who looked like the head of witches if I was welcomed there and she suddenly smiled at me.While I could not trust the smile, I really hoped that it meant that I looked like one of them or someone they could trust and I would take my risk with them.Although I was a little afraid since I came to this place alone and I could be killed and dumped without anyone finding my body for years, I had to take my chances.Without wasting any more time, I began to tell them why I was here and the help I needed from them.I make sure I do not sound more desperate than I already am, so they would no
DIANA'S POV When I thought about how difficult this was getting, I couldn't help but to smile bitterly and just wish the whole process would end."I don't understand you, Witch Queen, why do you need so much from me, I just need herbs from you." "Herbs? Really? Do you not know that we know what is wrong with you and we have seen it even before you came in?"I couldn't argue with them and I decided that this could only explain why they knew I was a Queen and not just any ordinary female wolf seeking for a child.Ordinary wolves would not go so far looking for a child after all, their lives were so easy to live but I still did not want to live that kind of life.This was one of the reasons why I was with Lucian, because I wanted to live a wild and exciting life, one I would be proud of all the days of my life.But this was not the kind of excitement I was expecting, it was a little related to the wild I thought I would have, though.Now, I somehow wished that his father was still aliv
ALANA'S POVI was having the best time of my life and I loved it.Every day seemed to be better than the last, and Titan was all that I ever asked for in a mate and I was getting it.Not only was he so sweet and generous with his love, he was also the best at helping me out in any way I needed help.The pack members had also accepted me and grown to love me as much as I was loving them too.I loved this place in totality, the sweet aroma of food and the sweet scent from leaves that filled my nose every time was something to die for.Everyday I made love to Titan, I felt like the Queen that I was and the Queen he always called me.Even the way my name rolled out his tongue alone was enough to make me fall in love with him over and over again.Again, I wish that I had met him before I met the good for nothing Lucian that I met.All my life, I had never seen someone as nice as he was, not even my dad or Caleb who was always there for me.Although I feel that I had not given Caleb enough
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
