Exiting the club, Sibyl pulled her hair up into a ponytail. Just as she was about to walk down the street, her phone rang. She was momentarily surprised to see Glen's name before she picked up the call.
“Sibyl, do you know where Aries is? Is he with you right now?”
Sibyl frowned, “Aries? I haven't seen him since yesterday.”
Worry was evident in Glen’s voice. “How is this possible? As far as I know, he went to visit you like usual and now I haven’t been able to reach him through the mind-link since yesterday. I’ve looked for him everywhere but can’t find him. He never disappears for so long. Are you sure nothing happened between you two?”
Sibyl felt uneasy about Aries's disappearance, even though she knew she hadn't done anything to cause it. She couldn't shake the feeling of being somehow responsible.
“I'll try to contact him,” she said, hanging up the call and dialing Aries' number, but it was sent straight to voicemail.
“Where could he hav
Under the evening sky, Sibyl walked out of the Eclipse Moon Pack's clearing, feeling confused and uncomfortable with the unexpected turn of events."I should not have come to this rogue territory. Nothing good happens whenever I am here," she muttered, licking the blood from her lips as her wolf began to heal them only slowly.Zara interrupted her, “Honestly this whole day was bad. Remember Daisy?”Sibyl silently recalled Daisy’s comment, “Tonight, I will become the Luna of the Lunar Moon and Edwin’s official mate!”Sibyl looked up at the evening sky and then down at her watch. It was going to be night in a few hours. That’s when she suddenly bumped into something in front of her.“Ah…” Surprised, she looked up to find Keshton standing there, already staring down at her. "You..." she gasped.Keshton raised his hand and gently touched the corner of her lips. "Who did this to you?" H
The weight of his words hung in the air, amplifying the tension. Daisy felt the eyes of everyone in the arena on her, their whispers amplifying her sense of dread.Lester picked up the threat behind Keshton remark, “Shut the fuck up girl. I have invited Alpha Keshton here and you dare to offend him!”Lester couldn’t afford to offend Keshton by excluding the Eclipse Moon Pack from the event, especially when other powerful Alphas had been invited. However, he had not expected the rogue Alpha, who had never attended any gatherings in the past, to suddenly show up at a Lunar Moon's event.Daisy’s eyes snapped to Lester in shock, finally realizing that Sibyl had used Keshton to gain entry into Lunar Moon territory. “Why did you invite him, Father? You knew Sibyl was with him, so why…”“Shut up!” Lester barked at her, then glared at Edwin. “Edwin, when are you going to knock some sense into your wife? She doesn’t know who she’s talking about.”Edwin snap
*Eclipse Moon Pack*The cold wind blew softly onto the cliff outside the Eclipse Moon territory. Stella's nonstop sobs echoed in the surroundings as she stood under a banyan tree at the edge of the cliff, its hanging roots draped around her neck."If you leave me, I will hang myself," she sobbed, threatening Aries with her life. He stood in front of the banyan tree, his hands in his pockets, his emotionless eyes fixed on Stella. “How could you abandon me so mercilessly? Living without you is a punishment worse than death for me. Better that I kill myself.”"It's your life. Do whatever you want with it," Aries stated, casually turning to leave. Committing suicide took guts which was something that Stella never had."Aries!" Stella screamed his name again and again. "I will kill myself! I really will!" She had threatened him using this very trick years ago, only this time none of her threats were going to stop him.Seeing that
Sibyl secretly fiddled with her fingers in her lap, she had felt Keshton's eyes on her ever since she got into his car and they drove out of the Lunar Moon Pack territory. It was the first time she had been in his car, and the silence was nerve-wracking. It wasn't like this was the first time she was alone with him—they had been alone in her apartment and even slept under the same blanket. But after he hugged her in front of so many people and held her hand, her heart no longer beat normally. She had clearly used him to gain entry into Lunar Moon territory and to get a chance to meet the King's council, but his statement that she was the woman he was protecting still made her heart race.After getting into his car, she avoided looking at him, and neither of them spoke, but his continuous stare kept her heart from calming down."You can drop me there," she said, pointing at the bus stop in the distance.Keshton glanced at the deserted bus stop and the creepy dark
Driving smoothly, Keshton glanced over at Sibyl's sleepy face. The refreshing breeze coming from in through the window and the long, tiring day made it difficult for her to keep her eyes open. She had even struggled to keep up with their kissing earlier in the car, so Keshton decided to forgo sex and drive her home instead. They had stopped briefly at his place so she could grab her wallet before heading to her home.However, as they approached the borders of the Eclipse Moon Pack, Keshton suddenly slammed on the brakes. The abrupt stop jolted Sibyl awake. First, she looked at Keshton in confusion and then turned her gaze forward.There, in the distance, near a large banyan tree, stood Glen and Aries. Trace was on his knees; all their eyes were fixed on something in the tree.Sibyl's hand flew to her mouth when she saw Stella hanging dead from the tree. Keshton immediately got out of the car and walked to the tree, followed by Sibyl, still in pure shock. All of
Eclipse Moon PackOnce the image of the blonde woman lying on the bed, half covered by white sheet appeared in Keshton’s mind, he abruptly opened his eyes and sat up on the bed taking deep and heaving breaths.He held his throbbing head, Joseph's face still roaming in his mind even though the dream was over. Now this dream started appearing during the day too.“Joseph is after her because of us,” Rah spoke in Keshton’s mind.During the last few days when Keshton was not around Sibyl, Joseph did not make any moves towards Sibyl. He also had not done anything to her when Joseph’s identity was hidden from Keshton. It proved Keshton’s suspicion that Joseph was not following through on his normal plan of action. Something big and unexpected seemed to be awaiting him in future.Keshton got off the bed to stand by the window where he could see the pack’s hospital where Sibyl used to work, but she was no longer there. She was not willing to be around rogues. He still did not know the reason b
After getting off work at the bar, Sibyl went straight to the place she had been visiting for a week: Kaha’s stall.“Is it closed again?” she sighed in disappointment.“You must like her sweet potatoes a lot, that's why you come to see her every day,” the old man from the shop next to the stall remarked as he came over.Sibyl smiled softly, hiding the sadness deep in her heart. The real reason for her frequent visits to Kaha’s stall was her baby. That six-month-old infant used to bring joy to her heart whenever she caught a glimpse of it. Unlike the she-wolves back at Lunar Moon, Kaha used to let Sibyl carry her baby. But due to bad past experiences and taunts Sibyl always refused and only looked at the little innocent life in Kaha’s arms happily, so she frequently visited Kaha’s stall.
“Be my partner for the ball,” Keshton whispered.As if time had stopped with the softness of his voice, Sibyl froze in his lap, rendered mute by surprise. The look in his eyes was like a spell cast upon her, leaving no room for doubt that she had misheard him.He had truly asked her to a ball. But why her? Who was she? A rejected and abandoned she-wolf, struggling to make ends meet with no pack to protect her and a massive debt to her name. Meanwhile, he was a handsome, powerful, yet dangerous rogue Alpha. Her creditor, who had a strange fascination with her white eyes. Their statuses were as different as the earth and the moon, no matter the angle one viewed them from. She was no longer a Luna, and in her current state, she was not even worthy of meeting his gaze, let alone boldly sitting on his lap.Her life was like a naked canvas in front of his eyes; he knew nearly everything about her, yet this man always did things that made her feel as if she were still a normal person. From h
Lunchtime had already come and gone, but Sibyl was still sleeping soundly. The previous night, she and Keshton had stayed up lying in bed talking, laughing, arguing, and eventually making up after Keshton apologized for his jealousy. It was a warm and happy night for Sibyl, and she finally fell asleep as the sun began to rise. When she woke up, she wasn't surprised to find herself alone; Keshton was probably already out and about.Sibyl rubbed the sleep from her eyes, yawned, scratched her arms above her head, before descending the stairs, feeling disoriented and groggy. When she reached the middle of the staircase, she caught sight of Christian, Odin, Sean, Glen, and Trace standing in the living room. Their gazes were fixed on her, causing her eyes to widen in shock. Keshton stood at the front of the group, his hands casually stuffed in his pocket as he locked eyes with Sibyl. Her face turned so red that it was as if it was going to drip blood with any mo
Thinking deeply, Keshton continued staring at her like a predator watching every move of his prey. Sibyl's ears turned red, and she could no longer bear Keshton's intense gaze. “Stop looking at me,” she said, feeling as if he wanted to devour her bit by bit and savor every reaction. He had been sitting next to her on the floor wanting to help her to fold laundry yet he had folded even one and had been eyeing her.“Should I?” Keshton smirked playfully.Sibyl tried hard to put on a displeased face, but the butterflies in her stomach betrayed her.He leaned closer, kissing the corner of her lips, and whispered, “When you look at me like that, I feel like you're asking me for ‘that.’”Sibyl's face turned as red as a tomato at his bold remark. “Nonsense!” She glared at him to hide her embarrassment and retorted, “It's you who shamelessly walks around naked in front of me, gives me seductive hints, and tries to lure me with your scent! Aren't you the one who is asking for ‘that’?”Keshton w
The next afternoon, Sibyl stepped out of the packhouse for a walk after lunch. She had been resting for four days by that point and was bored to death. She was a woman whose life had always been about making ends meet, but now she had a possessive soulmate who placed everything at her feet as soon as she wished for it. From food to clothing, Keshton was taking care of every one of her needs. Sibyl’s heart and her wolf leapt with joy at being cared for by their loving soulmate. Living with him, she realized that he would suddenly start to act cute when he wanted her to do something that she didn’t want to do, such as taking those round golden bitter pills. Sibyl’s life had become comfortable, being fed three meals a day by Keshton and sharing a bed with him. She loved everything about it, yet she couldn’t just sit in the house and do nothing. When she expressed her desire to assist with the house work, she was pushed out by a shaking omega who feared Keshton’s wrath. No one in the pack
Trace stood in the middle of the room completely stunned by Keshton’s over protectiveness reaction towards Sibyl and for some reason it looked abnormal. Abnormal as if they were…Trace’s hand shook slightly on his side as that word crossed his mind. He immediately stopped himself from thinking something that was impossible and crazy before he ordered the nurses to leave. “Mind-link me if you need my help,” saying, excusing himself from the room.Keshton kissed Sibyl’s forehead and whispered, “You don’t have to be scared anymore, Sibyl. I will always be with you.”Unknown to him, his voice vaguely registered in Sibyl’s ears but she was unsure whether what she was hearing was her illusion or reality. Before she completely lost consciousness.For the following two days, the weather was bad but the Eclipse Moon Pack was busy. Joseph’s return and his pack’s destruction could not come to t
“You fucking sent the our wolves to attack on a werewolf pack behind my back?!” Glen punched the head warrior with all of his strength. Just a moment ago, he was slammed with the shocking news of the Eclipse Moon Pack wolves wiping out a werewolf pack. Not even a dog survived and it all took place in the short period of time that it had taken him to rush to this shifters hotel. He was second in command and not even in the pack at that time, so how could it have happened? Even though Eclipse Moon was a pack of rogues, they also had to follow the rules of the realm and could not kill other wolves as they wished. Such a bold act could raise others to declare war against them. “Now speak! How dare you act on your own?!” he barked at the man after delivering another hard punch.“I acted according to Alpha’s orders,” the wolf revealed, shocking Glen to the point he was speechless.“Keshton’s orders?” This had never
Terrified, Sibyl began struggling to escape once more, using every bit of her strength. Her wolf’s fearful growling echoed in the room.Joseph laughed and scratched deep wounds into the side of her stomach with his claws, causing her to scream in pain. “Make sure to scream louder than that when I fuck you, bitch. Scream his name and cry for help,” he growled, biting the other side of her face.Blood, pain, and fear conquered Sibyl completely as she realized the man behind her was half-shifted and about to penetrate her. Her screams died in her throat, and tears spilled from her eyes. Then the door of the room was smashed down.Joseph froze, his face turning white in fear as he stared at the figure bathed in blood. It was Keshton! Holding a clump of hair dripping blood, Keshton’s eyes went to an abused Sibyl, who had been forced to the floor with half-shifted Joseph about to force himself inside her.Startled by the sound of the door smashing, Sibyl opened
The international Alpha Ball that held annually, was a prestigious event where werewolf packs from around the world gathered. Even though it was strictly for Alphas, everyone knew it was organized at the shifters' hotel.Glen, closely followed by Aries and Trace, stormed inside the empty hall with a mixture of panic and surprise in his eyes. The absence of any living being in the entire hotel made it seem like Keshton had been lured into a haunted building, but only the Goddess knew how!“There was not even a single guard at the door. It seems someone has removed everyone intentionally,” Aries observed the gloomy surroundings, picking up a faint scent in the air.“Other than Keshton, I smell Joseph!” Glen growled, but then he noticed Aries walking past him with a deep frown. “What's the matter?” he inquired.“I smell her!” Aries’ voice took on an abrupt gravity, his wolf agitated like a rising flame.“Who?” Glen curiously walked over to Aries, who was squatting.“Sibyl,” Aries whisper
Joseph replied with disinterest, “Only the Goddess knows. It could be wolfsbane or poison,” he slowly shifted his admiring gaze from his wine to Sibyl. “Or a spell?” His eyes shone with insanity.Sibyl’s eyes widened. If it was a spell and she could see it then Keshton could not, that meant he was still under the blind spell and would drink the wine without a question!“NO!” Sibyl shook her head and turned to see Keshton accepting the glass. “KESHTON, DON’T DRINK THAT!” she screamed, crawling off of the bed and rushing to the mirror. However, she tripped and fell face first.A sharp pain surged through her forehead but was quickly surpassed by a realization. She opened her eyes to find shattered pieces of the mirror on the ground beside her. It had knocked over because of her.“NO...” she sat on the ground, seeing that the mirror was completely broken and she could no longer see anything. “Keshton…” she called his name, then turned to look at Joseph, who
A wave of shivers ran down Sibyl's spine. Just like in the past, this man's aura was as malicious as a poisonous snake, capable of devouring one whole without spitting out the bones. Even after all these years, nothing seemed to have changed, including his effect on her wolf, which set off waves of alarms in her heart with his mere presence.Joseph inclined slightly, revealing his brown wolf eyes fully in the dim light as he locked eyes with Sibyl. “Or could it be that you don’t want to keep your tongue anymore?”Even if he was in his human form, he had an eighty percent tendency towards leaning into his animal nature. He enjoyed feasting on raw flesh and bones in his wolf form every day, something Sibyl was well aware of. The stare that could even scare the Devil, how could it spare Sibyl?Barely controlling her fear, she forced herself to speak. “What do you want from me?”Given the elaborate trap he had set in order to approach her, his motives were clearly not just to have a casua
