I looked at him in horror but my body felt lightweight. I slumped back in my seat and waited for Xander.

He looked at me intensely, his eyes from time to time glowed with a hint of silver, telling me that his wolf was near.

He took his fingers out and licked them clean with his tongue, making my mouth fall open. I swallowed looking at him and his eyes never left mine.

“Close your legs or I might be forced to take you again and this time I will not be using my hand or my mouth.” he whispered.

I realized that I was sitting with my legs wide open like I was inviting him. My heated cheeks burned like a raging fire.

“I…umm, Xa..” I hesitated.

“Speak mate,” he said softly.

I cleared my throat and started, “I handled him, my wolf is stronger than him.”

“I don’t doubt your ability to defend yourself. But I would like to see this Logan, by myself.” he answered, making me groan.

“You are not going to do anything like that,” I said.

“Why, are you still in love with him,” He yelled at me, his eye

    Amidst the ocean of reporters, I locked eyes with Daniel. His eyes were narrowed at me and a clear indication that I couldn’t reveal the truth to the outside, even though the pack knew. The Council knew. But I was not allowed to tell the truth to the outside world.But I wasn’t going to expose them, because doing so would not only harm him but also me. I will be losing my mother’s bracelet. And I would kill before I let Emma snatch another thing that’s mine.I took a deep breath and gave them my beautiful, practiced fake smile. I had been trained from childhood to be the Luna of the Pack and always knew something like addressing the media would happen, so I was ready.“It is indeed true. Logan and I were in a relationship, but I always felt that something was missing from my mate. Even he felt the same, the connection was missing. Then one day he realized that Emma was his true mate and he got confused because of the scent. Emma and I share a parent and this was the reason for the con

    The Harpers and The Hawthornes moved to the lounge area and everyone was asked to leave due to the unexpected circumstances.I wanted to leave, but I was not going anywhere without my mother’s bracelet. And it seemed that I might have to wait a little longer for it because the drama was not even ending.It only started, even though Logan’s parents were now quiet but that doesn’t mean that they were ready to accept Emma. They were throwing daggers towards her.Daniel was outside appeasing the media, but the damage was done.I checked my phone and I was shocked to see the news waiting for me.

    I was shell shocked, standing and watching the scene unfold before my eyes.Daniel, standing beside Emma, took the jewelry from the wooden box and placed it around Emma's wrist. My anger surged within me like a torrent, a powerful emotion that I could no longer contain. This was my mother's memory, a part of my family's history, and it had been given away without my consent. To the person I hated the most in my life.Unable to bear the sight of my mother's bracelet on Emma's wrist, I roared with a mixture of frustration and grief. My voice filled the room, commanding attention, “Give back my bracelet, or be ready to feel my wrath,” my words were a forceful demand that cut through the tension in the air.The room fell into a shocked silence as all eyes turned to me, waiting for my next move. The exchange of gifts had taken an unexpected turn, and it was clear that the ceremony, already filled with complex emotions, was far from over.Emma looked at me innocently and said in her timid v

    Xander's eyes snapped at the source of the growl, there Daniel was looking at him with pure menacing hate.And on the other side, Logan was on his feet, with his clenched fists and scowl on his face.Xander’s presence provided a sense of grounding and security to me, making me blush a little.Xander’s eyes flashed with anger and unrestrained anger and he unleashed it upon Daniel, by letting out a powerful Alpha bark, making everyone's knees tremble, including me.Except for Henry, Daniel, and me, everyone was on their knees, in front of Xander. Henry was standing unflinched, but I noticed that Daniel’s knees were trembling as if his Wolf didn’t care at all about his well being.I frowned at that.As far as I knew, my father was a powerful Alpha, but this shows that his power was lacking.“You think harming my mate is an easy task and you can get away with that. Then you are mistaken Daniel, if a single hair was harmed on her body, I would have made you all pay.” Xander growled at them

    The room was shrouded in silence, Xander’s laugh echoed through the tension filled halls, and everyone looked at him as if he was some creature out of this.“With a mate like this, with a mate like my Grace, I surely will win. I am sparing you so that you will live to see that day.” Xander replied to Daniel’s remark.But I was still shocked hearing what Daniel thought about me, how he only cared about his one daughter.Maybe I was never a daughter to him, only an heir that he needed to make his empire strong. A stepping stone for his empire, while he plays with my life to be the ruler.I gritted my teeth and took a deep breath to align my thoughts together.“You have made your perception of me very clear and I don’t think there is anything left to hear or say. But let me tell you something very straight, I, Grace Hawthorne, daughter of Ariana Anderson, will come back to take what’s mine. I don’t care if you like it or not, that bracelet, like a lot of things here in Blood Moon Pack, b

    All thoughts I had fled my mind when I felt Xander’s tight grip on my abdomen. His warm breath fanned over my neck, making me breathless, early in the morning.I had crossed every limit with Xander and did everything that there was to do but every time he touched me, I felt that it was the first time.He always makes me breathless more than that he makes me senseless. All sense of things left my body when it was Xander.Maybe he was a warlock, and he did his frowned upon magic to keep me under his control.“You are thinking way too loud for my liking, little mate.” Xander groaned by my side, making me jump a little.To get some sense in my lust hazed mind I decided it was best to get out of his sweet intoxicating smell.I wriggled to get out of his arm, but my actions did nothing but made me ground on his hard d*ck. I heard a heavy intake of breath, behind me and I did it again, to check.A heavy groan.Again, again and again.Until he gripped my throat to make me stop.“Aren’t you a

    After our intense s*x session, I fled the bed, because I didn’t know how to touch the topic of not using protection.How would I tell Xander that every time we had s*x, we were bareback and this increased our chances of having wolf pups. And considering how fertile we wolves were, this was concerning.Xander insisted on driving me to work, and the atmosphere in the car felt somewhat strained. We had both been wearing high-necked clothing for an extended period to conceal our mating marks, and it was becoming increasingly challenging to keep our secret hidden from prying eyes.We both were aware that this was not the ideal solution for our situation, but something temporary was needed.During the drive, I decided to share my thoughts with Xander sensing his good mood. He seemed more lively and happy. I was hoping that this change was because of me, and I so badly wanted this to be true. But I was no mind reader and only could hope for the best.I cleared my throat, this got his attenti

    All the tears were dried up on my face and I sniffled, inside the closed doors of my cabin.My phone rang, dragging me away from my thoughts and it was like that I had summoned him from my thoughts.It was Daniel, my father. The man who was supposed to be my backbone but instead he tried to break mine so that I could rely on him.Willingly on unwillingly."h*ll?" I said, my voice trembling with emotion."Gracie," Daniel's voice crackled on the other end of the line. "I need to talk to you. I've made a terrible mistake."Gracie, my heart stopped for a moment and everything came to stand still. I could hear my heartbeat.My mind raced as I tried to process his words. A terrible mistake? This was not the Daniel I knew, the man who had always been so confident in his actions, even when they were questionable. I held my breath, waiting for him to continue."I... I gave Emma your mother’s bracelet," he confessed, his voice filled with remorse. "I shouldn't have done that. It was wrong, and

I love him.“Grace, look these are our kids,” he showed the faces of my babies to me and a laugh bubbled up my throat.I nodded. Xander leaned down and kissed me on my forehead.“You have given me the best gift, Grace, I am going to worship the land you are going to walk on. You are my goddess from now on.” Xanderr boasted and I laughed.And then suddenly the door opened abruptly.“How dare you all, keeping me out of the room, don’t you know who I am?” Daisy cursed like a sailor as she tried to enter the room while the guards were trying to keep her out.Xander rolled his eyes at her, clearly not ready for her drama.Daisy pun

I am leaving not because I only care about my mate, it’s true that I do and I have full faith in him. But more than that, I believe that at this crucial moment, my forces need me.

    The whole day we were holed up in our room and when we went out it was already the next day.Grace and Xander were already present in the dining room.Xander took one look at his Beta and shook his head.“I don’t want to know,” he muttered under his breath, clearly not interested in what happened between us.I snorted, sat on the table, and started eating.And as the day progressed I realized that even though the dark Chapter called Morax had ended, it didn’t mean that all problems were solved. We were still in between the war.Like it was decided before, Xander was preparing to lead the troops to help Kai and Mason was already on his way to help his Alpha.We were standing at the front of the house, Grace held Xander’s hand, and I could see vulnerability in her eyes and I clutched Mason’s hand with desperation.“I am going to come back, don’t worry,” he *ssured me.“Indeed you have to. I will burn your soul if you won’t,” emotions swirled in my voice as I looked at him.He dipped his

    “How are you feeling?” Mason asked me his eyes were fixated upon me, there was a fire burning in his eyes, there was a look of longing, a thirst.I had never seen him looking at me like this, except the time we met during our mission with Morax, there was the same intensity in his eyes that I am seeing right now.I always thought that Mason was this laid-back guy but now the possessiveness in his eyes was blinding, and my breath hitched when he moved toward me.“Great, just my bones are dancing with all the energy I had spent,” I smirked at me, as he prowled toward me like a hungry animal, which he was like a hungry wolf.“Why are you looking at me like this?” I questioned him.His eyes darkened as he stretched his hand and grazed my lips with his fingers, I trembled under his touch.His touch left me trembling on my bed.“How am I looking at you?” he asked me, his eyes fixated upon my lips.“Like you want to devour me, like you want to embrace me in a way where nobody could understan

    I slumped down heavily on the floor as the door of my room burst open and werewolf warriors came inside.They searched the room through their eyes but found nothing, except the black mist. The residue of the confrontation between Morax and me.“We heard the noise,” The guard questioned as he looked at my slumped figure on the floor.I squeezed my eyes closed, my body feeling the weight of the fight that I had just fought.I just wanted to rest and sleep, maybe for a year.I opened my mouth to speak, to answer them, what really had transpired in the room. But apart from a hollow voice nothing came, my vision swam in front of my eyes. And the people I was seeing clearly were now just faceless figures, their images distorting.And with that without any prior warning, I just slumped down and fell asleep.I needed that rest, it was like someone just dragged into the dark abyss that was comforting and after weeks I was feeling safe, secure, and comfortable.After what felt like the most pea

    Daisy’s POVMy head was pounding hard and even though I had said that I was ready to go with Xander on the field, I was lying to myself.I knew I couldn’t. Staying up on my feet was becoming a hard task and dots were dancing in front of my eyes.My mind was troubled with various questions. Mason being the most frequent thought. Whatever we were or whatever was going on between us was still a bone of contentment between us.I always knew that accepting the fact that I had two mates would be difficult for Mason. At the start, it was difficult for me because never in my wildest dream I thought of having two mates. But this came as a surprise to me.I just hope that Mason comes to terms with this because I couldn’t imagine my life without him. I needed my mates, needed my Mason and if he tried to break up with me, I would burn him into crisps.I internally snorted at the ridiculous thought, I could never do that.A chill ran down my spine when the re*ssuring voice never returned, somethin

    “I want to come with you Xan. I don’t want to send you off to fight alone. You told me that we were in this together so why are you not understanding?” I pouted at him as he took me back to our room.“Do you think I want to leave you alone? And more so in your conditions. You are pregnant, Grace, I can’t take a risk about two important things in my life. One is my lovely mate and the other is my kids. So nope, you are not coming.” he said sternly and we entered the room.I whimpered with the thought that he was about to leave me.Xander sighed heavily, his eyes filled with a mixture of determination and concern as he looked at me. "Gracie, you know I would never willingly leave you alone, especially now. But the pack needs me, and I can't risk your safety or the safety of our unborn children."I crossed my arms, frustration bubbling within me. "Xan, I can fight too, I'm not helpless, and I won't let you face this danger alone. We can protect each other."He cupped my face gently, his

    The conference room was dimly lit, the heavy atmosphere reflective of the urgency that gripped our pack. Maps sprawled across the large wooden table, marked with strategic points and the locations of recent skirmishes. Daisy sat to my left, her piercing gaze fixed on the maps as she tapped her fingers impatiently. On my right, Xander leaned forward, his eyes intense."We need to locate Morax before he am*sses more power. The hellhounds Robert sent are our best shot at finding the escaped witch," Xander declared, his voice resonating with authority.I nodded in agreement, my mind already racing through the possible scenarios. "We can't afford to underestimate Morax. If he's managed to gather more power, we'll be facing a formidable force. Daisy, was there anything that you found odd when Morax disappeared?Daisy shook her head.“Nothing, a portal opened up and he vanished, like he was never there. I tried to look around, but I was exhausted at that point and Lizzie’s attack made me muc
