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
This sudden intrusion startled me, I looked up at the intruder, only to be shocked again.Xander was standing in the doorway, his presence sent a ripple of surprise through me, for I hadn't expected him to return. He looked baffled and hesitant."Xander," I said, taken aback by his sudden change in demeanor. "What brings you back? Is everything alright?"His hand rubbed the back of his neck, a nervous tic I hadn't seen before. "I... I wanted to talk to you about this morning," he stammered.I gestured towards the empty chair across from my desk. "Please, have a seat. We can talk while sitting, you look tired."Once he was settled, I asked “So what about the morning?”“I shouldn’t have done that.” he said, looking at me with somber eyes.“And what was that, I am not able to recall it, please help me to recall it,” I baited him.Because I was well aware of what he was talking about. He was talking about when he left me like he hadn’t heard me and ignored my suggestion.“Why can't things
My eyes shone with yellow light, reflecting Lana was as agitated as me. After all, we both were the same.This sudden surge of hatred overwhelmed me and my mind raced with dark and unsettling thoughts. The speculation that someone was preying on Daniel triggered a chilling suspicion deep within me, and before I could stop myself, I blurted out, "What if Lizzie had something to do with my mother's death, Xander?"The words hung heavily in the air, the accusation like a poison spreading through my veins. The memory of my childhood, the time when my mother left Daniel to stay in another house, because of some fight, flooded my mind. Daniel's regular visits and the subsequent arrival of Lizzie had always cast a shadow of doubt over that period of my life.Now I know what that fight was about. When Daniel begged my mother to come back. Another thing struck me like lightning. It was only after Lizzie’s arrival my mother lost her life because she became so weak, she couldn’t handle herself.
After what felt like forever, we parted and Xander decided that he would wait for me to finish my work and then we both would go back home together.At first, I rejected his offer but he told me that he knew that I needed him and what kind of a mate he would be if he left his mate all by herself while she was grieving and grappling with the reality of the situation.Even though it was just a small gesture, it meant a lot to me.I agreed to him and then after lunch, I decided I was good to go.We both headed back to our home, hand in hand leaving behind the bitterness of the incident. But it would be a blessing if my day went without any problem because what was waiting for us in the pack house was no less than an ordeal.The elders awaited us in the hallway. Their eyes gleamed silver like the moon itself, held an eerie intensity that could pierce the soul. They wore expressions that ranged from solemn to skeptical, and there was an air of gravity about them that hinted at the gravity
We left the skeptical elders in the pack hall and now I was seeing another version of Xander in our room.Xander paced the room, his brows furrowed in deep contemplation. His wolf remained restless, ruffling mine in return.We had two options: either we tell everyone that we lied about the mating mark or take help from Daisy.“Xander, don’t fret. We will find a way out.” I re*ssured him, but to no avail.“No, I can’t calm down. My pack members doubted me. This can’t happen.” he was furious.“But they are not wrong. We aren’t mated so whatever they said remains valid.” I answered him and stood in front of him.His eyes were filled with emotions, mostly rage but I could feel he was a little scared too.I approached him, placing a hand on his arm to halt his restless pacing. "Xander, we need to think this through carefully. I know you are angry but try to understand.”“What?” he growled.“I know you are a little scared. You care about their perception. You care about what your pack think
The next afternoon, me and Xander were ready to leave the pack grounds and headed to Daisy’s place.The whole ride we both were silent, thinking about what Daisy had in her mind and what her magic would do to us.We were afraid. I was not sure about him but I was.The sun hung low when we reached Daisy’s house. Her house was situated on the outskirts of the town, it was nothing too fancy. A modest white house with a neatly trimmed lawn. It was a quaint, picturesque residence, an oasis of normalcy in a world filled with supernatural secrets.As we approached the front door, I could feel Xander’s uneasiness in his taut shoulders and when his breaths heaved more heavily. I wanted to comfort him, but I was too scared to do that.But Daisy was something else. She must have heard our car as she flung open the door so fast that I was afraid that it would come undone.In the next moment, she was in my arms, climbing up like a monkey and giggling.A low growl left Xander’s mouth but Daisy care
Xander's eyes widened, disbelief etched across his face. The concept of not being able to find his true mate, his destined companion, was a cruel twist of fate. The bond between mates was sacred among our kind, and this curse threatened to sever it.But the knowledge that he won’t be able to scent her gave me relief. I didn’t want to be a selfish person, but I didn’t want to lose him.I couldn’t lose him.This feeling was something different. Something wild that I had never heard before.One day at a time, Lana whispered to calm my mind.And I took a deep breath.The room came back to normalcy, and Daisy came back to her form, her eyes still held the signs of her powers. Her breaths were ragged, and she was still reeling from the effect of her power.“Can it be broken?” I asked in a small voice.“Huh?” Daisy asked absentmindedly.“The curse. Can it be broken?” I asked again, afraid of the words that might leave Daisy’s mouth.“Every curse can be broken, Grace. Some require little to n
We both were n*ked on the bed, he could see my hard n*pples begging for attention, but Xander was busy kissing me.He brushed his fingers over my stomach and then lowered. I moan when his finger touches my pussy lips and he dipped one finger inside it.“I just love how your pussy clenches when I put my finger inside it.” Xander whispers in my ear.I was already soaking wet for him and he didn’t have to do anything to arouse me. His single touch is enough to make my whole body sing.We broke apart and he started sucking my n*pples making me arch my body toward him.“Oh,” I moaned, and I wiggled against his hand, I was loving the friction.“Spread your legs for me, my little mate,” he growled and I parted my legs for him.He put the head of his cock into the opening of my pussy and grabbed my hips roughly, as he thrusted inside me.With one move his cock was inside me, making me moan in pleasure.“Every time my cocks gets inside this pussy, it feels like the first time. You might as wel
The room was filled with crying kids and the crying did not feel like a curse, it was indeed a blessing, a symphony to my ears.The nurse gave the kids to Xander and he took the bundle of joy with so much love and adoration, I couldn’t help but smile at him.All curses left my mind when I looked at him handling our kids with so much love, this man was my family. 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
Xander looked at me, his wolf growled but we needed to act fast. I with my she wolf troop marched toward the rogues, they were not expecting us and were startled when we attacked them, in just one move we had rogues covered from all three sides.From the west Kai was acting like a killing machine, eliminating rogues, from the north I was there and my troop with their agility easily defeated the rogues and Xander’s experience was making rogues run for their lives.But they had nowhere to go, with the help of Robert we had the area covered, anyone who dared to leave the battlefield would burn like crisp hips, so we all were sure of our victory.And after two days of continuous fight, we eliminated every rogue in the area. We were standing before the corpses of our foes and there was a calming peace in the area.A victorious wolf came from the west, my heart skipped a beat knowing that Kai won and I copied him and then waited for Xander, his howl came moments later and I leaped in the ai
Grace’s POV“I, Grace, The Alpha of Blood Moon Pack and Luna of Silver Moon Pack, stand here in front of the members of both packs, to announce that I am leaving the pack to fight alongside my mate. 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. If in a time of crisis, I can’t be there on the battlefield helping my soldiers, then what kind of Alpha I would be? I want to lead my forces, supporting them so that I am there for them, so they are aware that before them the enemy has to deal with their Alpha. All my life my father looked down on me only because I am a woman, not worthy of the title of Pack’s Alpha. But time and again I have proved to him that my biology doesn’t define my worth. My power does, and my authority depends upon my skill. I have earned this title and today I will pay the price of this title. My mother, the Luna of the Blood Moon Pack
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
