"Please sit back down, we have much to discuss in little time. I know I said I would be leaving in the morning, but I am scheduled to leave in two hours. I didn't want to say anything in front of the others, because this information could cause a war." I paused for a moment to let them prepare themselves. Then I continued, "I have been harboring a secret for many years now. After the unfortunate events that happened last year, I believe it's time to shine some light on our situation."

Trying to think of the best approach, Teresa starts talking. "Alpha Kam, what do you mean this could start a war? Our people are barely holding on now. We cannot afford to risk them or our land again." and she was right. For someone so young, she could recall what happened. The tragic loss of my wife, our Luna.

Our land use to be covered with trees, wildflowers, and there was a vast amount of wildlife. Now we were surrounded by cliffs and dirt, one of the effects from the last war that happened five years ago. Felicity and Damen, two of our special ability members, have been trying to bring our land back to life. But I refuse to let them overexert themselves and possibly die. The war before that was thirteen years prior to the last. We've lost many members in over eighteen years and each death felt like I was reaching my end as well.

"I do not want a war Teresa, but we all need to understand why the last two wars happened." I spoke. I couldn't hold it off any longer. "Eighteen years ago, the first war between our pack and an unknown enemy happened. These beings were faster than our people and were defeating our strongest warriors."

Teresa interrupted, "I'm sorry Alpha but everyone knows the story. What is the reason behind all of this?"

"Insolent little she-wolf, how dare you talk to Alpha Kam like that. He has done everything in his power to keep you from meeting your death. Show some respect for our Alpha and listen to what he has to say." Beta Saul snapped, which surprised me. He seemed very testy lately and I made a mental note to speak to him about it when I got back from my trip.

"That is enough Beta. Our younger generation is not as patient as the rest of us, which brings me to my point. I am getting old, and I fear I will not be able to continue in my role for much longer. I have dedicated the last few years to providing our people with the necessary training in case another war was to come." I knew I lost them by the look in their eyes. I cleared my throat and proceeded. "As many believe, I do not have an heir."

" Sire, please excuse my interruption but what do you mean by 'believe'?" Beta Saul asked. I knew he would catch on first.

"I do have an heir. A daughter to be precise and she lives in our pack. She does not know but it is time to inform her." I turn to Teresa and place my hand on her shoulder. She looks at my hand and then my face. Confusion more apparent than anything else. Before she could say a word, I speak. "Teresa, I hope you will understand that your parents were not of blood. I am and I should have told you long before today."

    Beta Saul's POVThe Alpha was aging fast, and I knew without an heir, I would be taking over the pack soon enough. I only amused him by staying in the dining hall to listen to the old fool. Never did I expect he was holding a secret like this. This has derailed my whole future, my plans to conquer all nearby packs. My wolf, Drako, was ready to come forth and shred both of them to pieces."Alpha, you're lying. There is no possibility of this being true. My blood parents were Geo and Layla Cruz." Teresa sounded like a whiny little pup."Take a deep birth my child. I will explain everything in great detail when I return. Until then please let this little bit of information set in. I know this is already more than you can take right now." He says to Teresa and then turns to me. "Beta Saul, I am entrusting you to keep her safe and start training her to take my place. She is my only child and this pack's future ruler, once I am long gone." The Alpha spoke. How foolish

    Teresa's POV Beta Saul followed me out of the pack house, passing through the trees, and into the wastelands. Thank the Moon Goddess for my abilities. Only a select few are blessed with special abilities. However, in our pack, it seemed like everyone had one. We have a woman who grow plants in this desert and a man who could create water. I did not believe my abilities were beneficial to the pack, like theirs, so I kept it my secret. No one knew, not even the Alpha. I mean....my father. How could they keep this from me? The people who I thought were my parents took this with them to their graves. Did it not bother them? Did they not feel like they were being deceitful? I am sure they did it for the right reasons but what exactly was it? Alpha Kam gave no details, which led me to spiral in my own mind. So busy with my thoughts, I did not realize Beta Saul was closing in. I heard a growl that sounded murderous come from the shadows. I looked up and Beta was a few feet away in his wolf

    Unknown POVThe morning sun has risen, and I can feel it's warmth on my skin. As I wake from my slumber, my wolf is going crazy. 'Mate! Mate! Mate!' There is no way our mate could be nearby. We were in the middle of nowhere, in an abandoned house. Yet here I was, fighting my wolf for control. Moon Goddess only knows what would happen if I lost.I bartered with my wolf, so I could at least get something in my belly before going on this wild goose chase again. It seemed to work, so to the hallway I went. As I got to the top of the stairs, I could smell cherry blossoms and vanilla. The scent only got stronger and when I got down the first set of stairs, I ran down the hall to the second set. I damn near flew down them and there was our mate. Sitting down, leaning against the front door. Sleeping so peaceful. My wolf was jumping with excitement in my head. We finally found our mate.Studying and imprinting every detail of our mate's face to memory, I realize our mat

    My nerves finally gave in as my adrenaline rush disappeared. Falling on my ass and then laying down on my back to breathe a sigh of relief. Kai was whimpering and when I asked if everything was alright, he was silent. I couldn’t think about it long before I felt something wet touch my fingers. I bring my hand into view and jump up. Looking at where the bone was previously poking out, blood was gushing out. I did everything right, right? I didn't put too much pressure when pushing the bone into place. So, what happened?'Kai? Kai!?' The only response I got was his whimpers. 'Kai, y-you knew.... you knew and didn't say anything. She will bleed out if you don't help me.''There's nothing we can do. She's lost too much blood. I can't sense her wolf.' he solemnly whispers. 'You tried Jesse. None of this is your fault. Remember that.'I was not going to accept this outcome. I know there is something I can do, but what though? I don't have much time to think, she

I tried to communicate with Talia but there was no response. I feel like I should be concerned but I'm not. I try to look around, only to see miles and miles of water. I look up to see more water and a light shining above. By the way I was breathing, I could not tell that I was completely submerged.I swim towards the light. Popping my head out, I see a familiar couple sitting on the beach. They wave me over and without a second guess, I float on my back to them. The man walks into the water as I get closer. Picking me up and tickling me as we head towards the giggling woman.She was absolutely beautiful. She had honey eyes that looked like they were sparkling, with or without the sun shining directly on her. Long curly hair that touched the sand, surrounding her as she just sat there laughing. I

    Camelia's POVTears ran down my face as I heard her question, "Mom?""Yes dear. I am your biological mother or as your thoughts say, 'your birth giver'." That stung but I couldn't blame her. Looking into her eyes, I can see how her life has been. I don't understand how Kam could let those mutts treat our daughter that way. She is of royal blood.Kam grabs my hand while rubbing my shoulder with his left. Looking into his eyes, I understand why he didn't interfere. We discussed this many times and fought almost every day before giving her up. She needed to be protected."Teresa, do not be angry with Camelia. She wanted to keep you...." Wrong choice of words my love because here came Teresa, damn near biting his head off."So, it was you then?! You didn't want me?!" Kam backed up with his hands in the air as she charged towards him. Pointing her finger at him. I chuckled a little because she definitely had his attitude. "And you...." Uh oh, maybe

    Teresa's POV My mate? But how? Completely trapped in the darkest abyss of my mind, I wallow in my thoughts. I wish I could have gotten more answers from my parents. The only answer I did get, left me more confused. I'm not even seventeen yet. Most wolves don't begin searching for their mates till the arrival of their eighteenth birthday. However, almost every member in my pack chooses a second chance mate because they don't want to leave the safety of our territory. Only a handful of them would opt into traveling to the annual ball to search for their one true mate. Unlike the others, I thought I would end up mate less. I never wanted to leave the pack's land and I knew no one would accept me as a second chance mate. Some of the males wanted me as their bed mate but if I couldn't have my one true mate, I didn't want anyone. Whenever I scoffed at their suggestions and told them to shove their dick out of their assholes, they would try to force themselves on me. I shiver at the though

    Before I can take a step out the door, I sense something wrong. Fear, desperation. I look back at her and see tears running down the sides of her face. Kai stops his battle for control, and we rush back to her side. I wipe the tears off her cheeks and can feel her relax to my touch. She even moves a bit more into my hand. I feel my heart beating with absolute joy. She stops crying and I wipe the rest of her tears off of her face and neck. Then I notice the dry blood on her shoulder and look down at her leg. How did I not notice it when I was drooling over her perfect body? I remember there was a water well out back, so I need to find a bucket or something to carry it in. I get up and start searching the house. Wandering into the kitchen, I start searching the cupboards and there was so many. I doubt all of them were used in the past but to my surprise, they were all filled. Cups, plates, and bowls occupied two of them. There were canned goods and nonperishables in four of them. Cookin

    Galdenia's POVLeaving Yamiel to clean, I walk down the hall. Dragging my hand over the frames hanging on the walls. Mostly pictures of my mother over the centuries but I stop and stare at the only picture of my father.I was the spitting image of him. Long straight silver hair, emerald green eyes with gold specs, and smooth ivory skin that appeared to be glowing from afar. He was a kind soul and taught me to love music. They always said I could be found playing some instrument. Many even said I use to act like him as well, till the day he died.Rogue wolves found their way into our lands and attacked our people. My father tried to hide me in a tree. He was so concerned about me, that he didn't notice that wretched mutt behind him. I saw it tear my father into piece, having splashes of his blood land on me. In a desperate attempt to save him, my tears and heartache turned into ice crystals that pierced through that beast. I was only eight at that time and that's when we realized I cou

    Unknown POV I stand in front of my mirror, becoming consumed by rage. Not a day goes by that these marks don't go unnoticed. That idiotic she-wolf made sure to leave her mark as I made her mate witness her disappearance. Drawing out her claws from her right hand, trying to dismember my arm that held her throat. I thought I had weakened her, but I underestimated her. How I got myself roped into that fight, I will never know. My mother wouldn't explain herself, even after I almost took her life.A crystal blade shoved into her chest, inches away from her heart and still nothing. Just her cold, emotionless green eyes staring into my soul. I was prepared to do whatever it took. Luckily for her, the guards pulled me off before I could force another blade into her pregnant stomach. I didn't get the answer I was looking for, so now I am left to think back to the events that lead to these imperfections on my ivory skin.Knock.

Both so young and truly in love with not just each other, but with the child they gave up. With me. I could see it. I could feel it.

    "It's becoming troublesome. Camile and I are worried the enemy will found our weakness." I looked over to Camile and saw the tears forming in her eyes. I put my hand on her knee to give her some comfort. She placed her hand on mine and I realized I was shaking. How did I not notice that? I took a deep breath to compose myself and continued speaking. "Both of you have done an amazing job despite fighting your own personal battles. Never giving up and for that, y'all are perfect candidates."Layla looked confused, giving Geo a little nudge to speak. "A-Alpha, wh......what do you mean by perfect candidates?"Camile stands up and walks out of the office as her tears finally broke past her bottom lashes. Layla tried to follow but sat back down when I raised my hand. Then her confusion turned to fear. Her heart beats was racing and she tried to come down by hugging Geo. He tries to soothe her by rubbing her arm. Now he was becoming worrisome. I clear my throat and tell t

    Alpha Kam's POV "Alpha, I've made it to the hotel. Is there anything you need me to do before I settle for the night?" Gamma Josef asks while on the other side of our phone call. "No my dear friend. I've already contacted the other alphas and let them know that you would be acting on my behalf. Just take a deep breath and don't let them push you around. Stand your ground and show them you are their equal." "Thank you Alpha. You have always been an older brother to me and I appreciate you for trusting me do this. Now go catch that sorry ass bastard sir." I laughed at that last part. I've known Josef since we were little cubs. His mother would help keep an eye on me after my mother passed. We pretty much grew up like brothers. He was the only person that knew Teresa was my daughter. I never wanted to give her up but when trouble started to show up at our door step, I had to make a tough decision. I had Josef look for a suitable couple, within our pack, to adop
