Selene

She led the way, lost in thought, her mind focused on the two confused men in her life, while Joshua walked quietly beside her as they made their way to the river near the village surrounded by cliffs. It was the same river they had emerged from when he had carried her across the water to reach Moonlit Grove in time to save Mike.

As her eyes gazed at the clear surface of the water, she felt the heat of the sunlight reflecting off the smooth surface. She blinked quickly and squinted her eyes to reduce the blinding effect of the reflected sunlight.

When she heard the sound of clothes rustling next to her, Selene automatically turned her head to the right and saw that he was once again taking off his clothes. A hot blush flushed her cheeks and she quickly looked away.

"Warn me before you do that!"

She could hear him chuckle. "No need to look away, sweet Selene. I'm not embarrassed in the least. If you are curious, you may look at my naked body."

She stuttered for a few secon

    Samuel "Do you think we should have trusted Joshua with Selene, Granny Rose? He's allied with Nathan," he grumbled, sitting down near the old healer and the sleeping man to reassure. He usually sat next to Felix, but Felix was asleep, recovering from his injuries. "I'm sure his loyalty has changed. He's no longer a threat to our Selene," Rose said with a small smile, holding a cup of hot tea between her wrinkled hands. "Maybe I should have come along..." Samuel said, still in a disbelieving tone. He had been the leader of the pack since Rylan had left and Mike couldn't go because he was unconscious. Rose chuckled and patted the young man's shoulder reassuringly, then changed the subject. "Would you mind going to the water well and filling this bowl with cold water?" She held out a small round wooden bowl. "The water for Mike's fever is already warm." "Sure, Granny. I'll be right back." He hurried outside and walked to a corner where there was a clean water source. It was early in

    Selene She let go of his grip and grabbed the hilt of her other weapon, ready to fight. They continued to advance in hushed silence, their senses open to their surroundings. Selene could hear nothing but the sound of their feet on the stone floor and their breathing. Her vision was improving as her eyes had time to adjust to the strange, dark green glow of the worms, but it was far from perfect. There were still many rocks and boulders hiding behind her, shadows too dense for her eyes to penetrate. She knew that Joshua had no limits in this area, and she partially focused on him, trying to get clues from his body language so that she could react faster to danger if the warning through words came too late. The smell of the stench of death reached her gradually and quickly became more pungent. Out of an abundance of caution, she pulled out a gas mask and tied it behind her head to cover her nose and mouth. There was nothing to disguise the familiar stench of decay, but at least she k

    KarenSitting in front of the mirror, Karenina did not pay much attention to her own reflection, focusing instead on Helga's nimble hands as she wrapped fresh bandages around her body after cleaning and washing her wounds. Lifting her gaze, she noticed Helga's worried expression, her eyebrows knit together in a deep frown on her forehead, her sad brown eyes, her pursed lips.Then Karen raised her right hand to grasp her friend's clawed hand, instantly drawing Helga's attention as those troubled brown eyes stared intently at her. "I'm fine, Helga, really. It's not as bad as it looks, and it healed faster than it would have without Xavier's help."Although the wound on her shoulder was still deep, it was not what it used to be. She was amazed and surprised by the healing process. Today is the fifth day since Karen accidentally entered Xavier's mate selection competition, where she was attacked and eventually injured. She has a long but fortunately not too serious laceration on her back

    Karen After breaking the wax seal of the Westwood Pack, she read the short message and knew immediately who had written it, the masculine scent was obvious even if the writing was not. ‘Come to the garden terrace and we'll have breakfast.’ She should have been surprised by the invitation, but instead her stomach fluttered as she remembered her conversation with the guy yesterday. Had she really agreed to a date with him? All thoughts of her strange conversation with Helga vanished as the thought of a date with Xavier overcame her. This can't be real. Xavier Westwood wanted to go out with her! But why? A question that kept popping up in her head ever since his plan had been revealed to her. "Luna Karenina?" Helga asked. Snap out of her reverie, Karen looked at her friend. "Yes?" Helga asked patiently, "Would you like me to bring you something to eat?" "Uh, no? I don't think so. Xavier wants me to eat with him in the garden... somewhere," she replied, not sure where. ****** H

    Karen Then she stood up, signaling that she was done eating, and walked over to him, who also stood up and held out his hand again. Feeling more comfortable, she took it without comment, only the slight beating of her heart showing her reaction to being so close to Xavier again. She suddenly wondered if she would always be aware of his presence, but she decided to ignore the uneasiness in her mind and focus on the scene around them. He calmly led her through a variety of plants with a variety of scents assaulting her nose, all pleasant and sweet. They walked along cobblestone paths, past archways, statues, and magnificently designed pools. Karen knew Helga was following a few feet behind them, but most of her attention was on the amazing world around her and the man walking beside her. "Beautiful," she murmured. After a few minutes of silence, her curiosity got the better of her. "Hey, Xavier?" "Hmm?" "You told me about your great-grandparents and how the house was passed down

    XavierHe stood next to her and looked down at her bowed head. He knew that she was feeling somewhat disappointed with their discussion so far and probably wanted to get away from him. He could see it in her body language. The way she half turned her face away from him, unwilling to look at him at all. No, damn it. That made him feel bad.She wouldn't end it like this, for such an unnecessary reason. She was overreacting. Her body felt so weak right now. And even though he had to deal with the thing he hated most about humans or hybrids, he still wanted her. His body reacted just by being near her.Xavier didn't know why. The logical reasons didn't make sense to him. Was it really so important to her that all their future offspring would look the same, without a different color than her?He stopped. Blinked. Then smiled in triumphant satisfaction. He knew what he had to do.He reached out and took her right elbow gently. "Come, Karenina. I have something to show you.""Uh... okay? Whe

    Karen To be honest, Rylan looks more like their father than Xavier. Moreover, unlike the other portraits, their father has an expression of warmth and kindness. This can be seen in the golden yellow of his eyes as well. Somehow the artist captured not only Alaric Westwood's strong will, but also the heart she already knew he had. He has Rylan's eyes, she thought with mixed feelings, her heart saddened. He never had the chance to know his father, and his father never had the chance to see his youngest son grow up. As she thought of the Alpha who was standing silently next to her, she knew that Rylan wasn't the only one who was suffering from his loss. Unable to ask Lord Alpha such a personal question, she met the eyes of a woman who looked very much like Xavier and blinked in surprise. "And this..." she whispered in awe, raising her hand to the graceful she-wolf's face. "This is my mother." "Is she... dead?" she tried to ask as gently as possible. "She's still alive." The tone o

    Karen As they left, she was surprised to see Helga waiting outside. To be honest, she had forgotten about her friend. Karen gave her a smile, but she kept her eyes glued to the ground, even as Helga bowed to her as they passed. Karen frowned, not understanding her actions. She was acting just as she had when she first met her maid, except for the fear. Looking over her shoulder, Karen noticed that Helga was following a few feet behind them. Then she realized that she must have been following her all along. She wanted to talk to her friend about her strange behavior, but she knew it would have to wait until her... date?... with Xavier was over. There was a part of her that didn't want their date to end. Still aware of the man walking beside her, Karen used their time together to walk in silence to his private training room to keep her raging lust at bay. She had to make sure that what had happened there would not happen again. In truth, she already felt guilty for kissing Xavier w

    Karen For the last year after Nathan's death, she lived with Xavier. She had told him that she needed time to get to know him and for their relationship to grow before making a big commitment, and during the time they had been 'dating', he had been giving her several tutors to assist her in adapting to her new life. So many tutors, she thought with a sigh. At first, she only had tutors who helped her explain and control her powers now that she was a full-blooded she-wolf, while others taught her combat and how to fight hand-to-hand, while still others taught her to use swords and daggers. Although she seemed to be making progress after a year, Karen knew that she was far from proficient. It would take years for her to become a fighter and master her new weapons, even though she always carried a bow and arrow. However, a few months ago, she had surprised Xavier by asking how to behave as Luna in the Westwood Pack. She could see the concern and eager anticipation in his eyes when he r

    Karen "You're acting weird, Rylan," she said with a frown as her best friend led her out of the place where she used to play hide-and-seek with Raine. Instead of fighting with her like she thought he would, Rylan glanced at her before looking away. He crossed his arms and started walking back and forth in front of her. This made her upset because she assumed that his weird behavior had something to do with her changed appearance. "Why the hell can't you look at me?" While walking over to him, she grabbed his shoulders and forced him to face her. "Why is it so hard for you to look me in the eye, Rylan?" She demanded, her voice trembling. Why wasn't he looking at her? Could it

    Karen Her arms wrapped around his body, lowering him onto her, and when their naked bodies met for the first time, it was like ecstasy. Her hardened nipples poked at his muscular chest, her curves fitting perfectly next to his rock-hard body like she was made just for him. It was a piece of perfection. She stared straight at him, meeting the burning intensity in his golden eyes, making her body shiver. That Xavier craved her so much never failed to surprise and amaze her, but it also made her grateful, because she felt the same way. He had seen her naked before, yet Xavier still seemed mesmerized by what he saw, as if seeing her for the first time. Hence, she did not feel ashamed under his gaze. Far from it. In fact, she felt beautiful. She called out his name again. Her body burned and ached. She needed him to d

    Karen He means it... As she thought with teary eyes, she knew it was true. She could see it written all over his face and in his eyes. All this time, she had thought that he had such little feelings, never seeing a hint of emotion on his face since the first day she met him a few years ago. But she was wrong. Xavier did have feelings, and judging by his expression, he felt a lot of things. So much so, that she could practically hear his heartbreak, and somehow, it only mended her own. The veil that shrouded him had been lifted, and what she saw had removed her resentment for him, taken away her bitterness, and left only the love she felt for him swelling in her heart. As she ran towards him, slamming into his chest, Karen increased her strength, causing his body to be pushed back slightly, but he remained upright and didn't hesitate to wrap his arms around her. The desperation in his hug confirmed his words, chasing away the darkness in her heart. "I forgive you," she whispered into

    Karen One week later after the battle... She was in her room, curled up on her bed, and holding a pillow to her chest. One hand held the pillow while the other stretched out over her bed. Inside her fist was a sacred moonstone. Nathaniel was dead, killed by Xavier, with no help from her at all. She should have felt happy, relieved, hell, she didn't know, at the death of her most bitter enemy. Especially when all her friends were safe. After their moment of heartfelt embrace, Xavier used his remaining strength to carry her back to the pack house. It was the last time she saw him, but she was told that he was recovering and wouldn't die from his injuries. That was two days ago, and she was lost in thought. Her eyes were fixed on her clenched fist that held the gemstone, the sacred moonstone, the heirloom of the werewolf lords. Karen did not need to open her fingers to know that so far she had failed to purify the stone. The gemstone was still black in color, silently indicating that

    Karen Xavier stood slightly hunched over, his fine hair flowing around his angelic face, almost hiding his expression from her. Blood dripped down across his chin from his mouth - a mouth that she couldn't help but remember kissing and getting lost in - but what brought tears to her eyes was the dagger that had stabbed him in the back, protruding out of his body for her to see. While his blades were partially sheathed in the ground, a line where the daggers had cut into the ground was beyond them, as if he was trying to use his daggers to stop his forward motion. One dagger was stuck in his right leg, stuck firmly, most likely adding to the pain that he was experiencing. Another dagger dug into his left shoulder, and another pierced his left side. A large amount of blood stained his white shirt. Staring into the face of the man she was growing t

    Karen That's for sure. Xavier was right. Then her eyes narrowed on Nathan. Although Xavier had stolen more than she could have imagined, Nathan was still her enemy, and although she did not remember anything that happened after her conversation with Nathan until she woke up in Xavier's arms, she was not stupid. Although her spiritual energy was gone, perhaps gone forever, somehow she could still sense the fragments of the sacred moonstone. There was a large piece that belonged to Nathan, nestled in his chest, in what should have been his heart, but there were two separate fragments inside of her. She could practically sense their dark presence deep in her chest, dark and riddled with corruption. Nathan had played this game many times before, not only controlling Karen in the past but also many other people he controlled using the damaged fragments. She didn't know what she had done while under Nathan's control, but from the scent of Xavier's blood, and Nathan's blood on her nails, it

    Xavier ‘If I can't find and remove the fragment, then I will eliminate Nathan's control.’ With grim resolve emanating from his golden-colored eyes, he rushed to confront Karen, responding to her attack when she returned to attack him, or so it seemed at first. Instead, he somersaulted over her head at the last second, landing a few meters behind her, and before she could turn around and attack him again, Xavier snapped her wrist, using the rope that had been thrown from his hand with controlled accuracy. As Karen turned to face him, he moved around her, immobilizing her arms to her sides, and then pulling her arms back as he lunged at her. Catching her near his chest, he easily locked her against him, controlling her attempts to break free. With his arm still around her and the other arm wrapped around her waist, Xavier used his free hand and dug his fingers into the blood clot at the back of her head, forcing her head back at a painful angle, making it impossible for her to move h

    Xavier A movement caught his attention at the mouth of the small cave and out of it came a woman wearing a familiar dress, a ruby red stain was also drawn on her face, her dark brown hair matted in places from the drying blood. There were no visible wounds on the woman he was so intimately familiar with. Perhaps seeing his perplexity, Nathan spoke up. "Don't worry, Alpha. The blood is not hers. Though, I'm afraid that you are already too late if you want to see Maya. We had a... Well, a little disagreement, if you know." His sarcasm did not go unnoticed by Xavier. Although he did not know why or how Maya was dead. So much blood had soaked Karen that he wondered if Karen had killed the she-wolf. He hadn't thought about that possibility, not when his eyes caught the physical changes in the woman he cherished so muc
