Serena POV In a faraway land... . . "My queen, we have news. Jaque Davis has given birth!" Hmm! I just sneered at the news I had just heard. I was expecting this. I raised my hand and signed my spy to leave my chamber. The poor and scared wolf sprinted right away. Yes! Since the dark goddess had given me this power to rule the lands, I was invisible and inevitable. They had no idea that I had been watching them. They were unaware that I had spies everywhere. They were ready to serve their new queen. Some were forced to kneel before me. With just a little trick, scaring them to take away their loved ones, they agreed to obey my commands. "Give my orders to the leader of Yorkshire!" I willed. I stood up to my golden throne gifted to me by my mistress. I had never met her, but I heard her voice once when she entered Tia's body. She gave me orders to destroy Shiva. At first, I had no idea who she was talking about. However, when I remembered that Jaque's wolf's name was S
Jaque POV . . "What's going on? Why is it dark? It's still ten in the morning!" I was carrying Kairen in my arms when I was awakened by the noises of the omegas outside of the room. When Witch Anya came, she was already carrying our usual escaped bag, and now, she added an extra gym bag for my son's needs. "We have to go back to Vermont, Jaque. That darkness means something dangerous!" She told me. She glanced in my direction once in a while while picking up some of Kairen's clothes and diapers. "Victoria, please help us!" She told the high witch when Victoria entered the room. The high witch seemed to know what she was about to do, and with just a snap of her finger, all of my son's milk bottles and formulas were already in the bag. "We need Collen to help Adam carry our stuff!" Victoria suggested as she also packed some of the potions they just made a few weeks ago. "Alright, let's go!" We all went out of the room. The happenings outside of the castle were chaos. I could
Jaque POV . . "Jaque, we have to go to the dome now!" Witch Anya nudged me. "We have limited time. Come on!" She took two bags from the bed while Victoria took my son's stroller. Just in case he would like to lie down, at least, it wouldn't be hard for me. "Alright, I am ready!" I told them as I carried my son in a baby sling. We all went out to the room, and as we climbed downstairs, we heard the uproar outside. The omegas in the mansion ran everywhere while some of the warriors came to our side. "Our queen, we are ordered to bring you to the dome!" One of the warriors uttered as he took the two heavy bags that Witch Anya was carrying. "No need!" Victoria butted in, making the warriors surprise. "We can teleport there!" She added as she held the warrior's hand. "She is the high witch. She is telling the truth. We can teleport there!" I told the warriors, and they just bowed to us. "Protect the pack and your Alpha!" I told them before we disappeared from their sight.
Logan POV . . I fixed my shield and tightened my leather belt. My sword was attached to my waistline on my side. My gear was intact. My helmet was on the marble table. The door of my room opened, and Alaric came into view from the door frame. "Hey, are you ready?" He asked, serious. He was just wearing his usual outfit. Black leather pants and a long English black coat. He had his powers, so he didn't really need to prep like me. This was my first time wearing a warrior's armor. "I am. I am doing this for Jaque and Thorin!" I told him as I picked up my helmet. We were going to Alectrona's kingdom. The great war was imminent. There was just one feeling that had been bothering me for a long time. "I wonder what is going on with them now!" I whispered as I sternly stared at Alaric. "You mean Shiva and the rest!" He confirmed. "They are fine. Your mate is heavily guarded. Plus, the fact that she has power on her own!" He smiled. That was true. Confirming that Jaque had indeed
Logan POV . . My energy was draining, but every time I thought about Jaque, it gave me the spirit and strength to fight. We were outnumbered, but I could feel that the moon goddess had given us the will to finish this battle. I looked around and saw pools of blood everywhere. My face was full of sweat, and I was gasping for breath. I searched for Alaric and saw him as good-looking as before. D*mn the power of being a vampire. Even the strands of their hair were always in style when they jumped or lunged at their enemies. I glanced at the wolves, whom Shiva once trained, and I could tell, they were very good. Their healing powers were heightened, so every time they had cuts or deep wounds, they were cured fast. However, our enemies were decreasing in numbers. Some of them were burned alive. Thanks to Alaric's fireball. Other werewolf warriors were wounded deeply, and it took them a while to heal their wounds. We were also fighting with the werebears from the 6th mountain. Th
Logan POV . . I was stunned when the whole militia of Alectrona ran to the side, protecting whoever it was who had just arrived. They all shielded someone from our sight. I smelled Alaric's scent coming near me. He was covered with blood and dirt, but it wasn't his blood. It was the blood of our enemies. He tapped my shoulder and glanced at me meaningfully. "She's here!" He whispered, good enough for the werewolves and vampires near us to hear it. "Alectrona?!" I asked, confirming. Alaric just nodded. So, she was the one who stopped the battle for a while. "Great. Now, I don't need to look for her anymore!" I told Alaric as I stepped forward. Alaric followed a few steps away from me. He was showing everyone that I was still their leader, even if my wolf abandoned me. I stopped in the middle, about a hundred meters away from our enemies. My eyes rummaged through the hundreds of warriors. Valto was in the middle, smirking like a crazy man. Then their line dispersed in half.
Jaque POV . . I had to do this. I had to help them. Our enemies were getting stronger and bigger in numbers. Where did they come from? It seemed to me that they never decreased at all. Adam and Andrew had been doing everything to protect the pack, but it looked like something was missing, and I had no clue what it was. 'Moon Goddess, I have just given birth to the heir to the throne, and his father is in your world at the moment. Please, show me a sign that he is alright. Show me any signs that Logan and Alaric are fine!' I couldn't help but kneel in prayer, asking goddess Diana for help. I shut my eyes and bowed down, feeling the immense power surging in me. 'Goddess Diana, allow me to help fight our enemies. Allow your daughter Shiva to reign her power. This isn't just for the goodness of every good creation but to cease the darkness that is devouring your children. Allow Shiva to cooperate and unleash her power that once dominated and defeated the goddess of darkness!' I pra
Jaque POV . . Shiva let out a menacing growl, terrifying the werewolves and werebears coming our way. I searched for my target, the one and only, Serena Rinks. However, she was nowhere to be found. I glanced at Amira, who was busy drowning the wolves and spinning them in the air. I felt proud of her. She had come at the right time. Although I was curious why she suddenly became a stranger these past few weeks. I almost got caught when a werewolf planned to lunge at me. It was a good thing that Shiva's agility was faster, for it was heightened. All that she had was heightened, honestly. Her height and width. She was bigger than the last time we shifted. Her speed, sight, and hearing were five times faster and clearer. She was different. She was very strong. She just bit the head of the big werewolf and shook it like nothing. Then she threw it away like it was just a piece of a small rock, hitting three werewolves. The impact was so strong that the three werewolves were also
Adam POV . . I was in my study room at the packhouse just doing some stuff for the Blood Moon, when suddenly a loud knock on the door made me squint my eyes. Who could that be could also mind-link me, no need to knock. "Come in!" I made my voice loud, showing not pleased with that continuous banging on my door. When it swung open, I was stunned to see Marco rushing with an anxious look. "What's the matter? You look like you just saw a ghost!" I told him, still a bit annoyed. "Oh! Believe me, Alpha. I am more than that today!" I raised my brow at him, still baffled at his words. He took a deep sigh and looked like he was organizing his thoughts. "Have you watched the news on human territory recently?" He asked, and now he was shaking. I just chuckled at him, thinking that was just a waste of time. I leaned back against the headrest and stared deeply at him. "You banged my door hard just to ask me such useless questions. Marco, I know you better than this!" "Alpha, I am
Amira POV . . I missed Adam. What I meant was I missed him. All of him. This was crazy. I had a mate, but I couldn't feel any special fondness for him anymore. I didn't even know when it started. "Ahh! This is insane!" I pulled my hair out of stress, and this was the one that Ayesha saw when she entered my room. "Princess Amira, are you alright?" She immediately came to my aid and brushed my hair with her fingers. "You know well that your hair is the crown of your glory. Why are you ruining it?" She ticked her tongue as she began adorning my hair with pearls and diamonds. "By the way, I came to say that Princess Nomiko wanted to invite you for tea time. She just summoned me this morning!" "Great! I will go. When will that be?" I immediately accepted Nomiko's invitation. I had never seen her for a month now, and I also needed her company. I needed someone to talk to about this. Someone who had no idea that much yet about us, about me and Adam. "That will be tomorrow?" Aye
Adam POV . . I got up and fixed the hem of my sleeves while Camira helped Delmar get up. I was so furious that when he got the chance to stand steadily, I gave him a strong hit on the jaw, making Camira startle as he fell back to the floor. "Alpha Adam, what do you think you're doing?" She immediately stepped between us, shielding this impostor from me. He groaned, getting up for the second time. Still smirking at me while Camira faced my rage. "You can't pretend for d*mn too long, j@ck@ss!" I roared. "You are lucky, Camira is here. If not, I would have torn you into pieces!" I pointed at him, Camira snapping my hand. "That's enough!" She roared at me. "He doesn't fight you, okay? Whatever that is that makes you upset again!" I shifted my glare at Camira and mind-linked her. 'Believe that j@ck@ss all you want, but I am telling you!' I glanced back at him, who was now standing still while touching his jaw. 'He has a hidden agenda, and we are all in great danger if we do
Adam POV . . Just one ordinary day at the Council. I was busy flipping the pages of some documents Camira sent me this morning while browsing some of the reports on my laptop. I creased my brows when my eyes caught something. 'Camira!' I mind-linked our budget officer at once. 'To the office!' I gently uttered. Being the leader, you should be tough and aggressive. That was the teaching Amos planted to the staff here, but I was not Amos and would never be. I treated the staff here as my friends, at the same time putting a wall between us. Meaning, we should all know our positions. 'Yes, Alpha!' Camira responded. 'Shall I bring you something, Alpha?' She also asked. I could already smell her scent coming to my office. 'No! Just you!' I told her. I had my laptop, and the budget for next month's emergency funds for every pack was flashing on the screen monitor. 'Alpha, what's the matter?' She asked as she arrived at the door. I just nodded at her, signaling her to take the s
Adam POV . . "Witch Orora, can I come in?" Since last night, aside from that overwhelming feeling I shared with Amira, I felt something different. Something unexplainable. Something that only the witches could tell. When she just left this morning, I felt devastated, like I had lost something that was part of me. Like I had lost my heart and my soul. The door creaked open, and Orora's stern face welcomed my desperate look. "What is it, Alpha Adam?" Her tone was also nonchalant. Did something happen before I came here? "Alpha Adam, if you are just going to stare at me in front of my door, you can take a photo and leave!" I was nudged by her aggressive voice. "My bad. Can I come in? I need your help with this one. It is about Amira!" I heard her sigh and saw her roll her eyes before she opened the door wide and let me in. "Would you like some tea?" Her voice was still stoic but a little bit nicer this time. Also, yes, I was going to need a liquid to calm my nerves. "T
Orora POV . . Something was odd. I had been searching for that book in my library for hours but I couldn't find it. I had been floating in the air for hours and circling around these stacks of ancient books. I hadn't read that book for disguise in a long time, and now that I needed it, I couldn't find it. "Arrg! Orora, think! Come on!" I swayed my wand, and it formed a glitter in the air. That wand was a gift from the moon goddess itself. She told me to use it if something important needed to be fixed. For now, Amira's situation was THAT something very important. "Orora, we have a visitor!" One of my witches knocked on the door. "It is Princess Amira's mate, Delmar!" I immediately went down to the floor and stuck my wand on the side of my waistband while forming a fake smile. "Vina, stock them back. Hurry!" I told my witch, and she hurriedly used her power to put all the books back on the shelves while I went to the door. Delmar was indeed here, and he was waiting outside t
Amira POV . . "Delmar, I...I am just here. I won't leave!" I told him as I tapped his shoulder and tried to step back, but his hug was tight, and he was trying to catch my lips. "I miss you, my darling!" Before I could stop him, his lips had already sealed mine. However, the feelings were not the same. I felt my lips burning, and I was suffocating. I tried to suppress it, but the more I did, the more I felt I was drowning. Until I did my best to be released from his tight wrap. "Delmar, I am sorry. I just had a headache now. I drank too much last night!" I saw something in his eyes, but I couldn't put a name to it. He looked still upset and disappointed. "Alright! I will give you time to rest. I will come back this afternoon. No! Tomorrow! I will visit you tomorrow!" He said with a stern face. I was pretty sure he didn't like my reaction to the kiss he just did. "Okay, Delmar. See you tomorrow!" I just told him. When he left, I dropped myself to the floor. I felt weak
Amira POV . . How stupid I was. I let that happen. I slept with Alpha Adam last night. I was no longer drunk. I was sober. But I still did a tremendous act, betraying my mate. How stupid could I get? I scolded myself as I paced back and forth in my room. Ayesha still had no idea that I was already home. 'What will I do now? Did Delmar feel my betrayal? Did he feel my unfaithfulness?' I bit my thumb. A mannerism I had since I was a kid every time I was anxious or even scared. I shvt my eyes, trying to think whether to tell Delmar about it or not. However, instead of imagining Delmar's face, Adam's annoyingly good-looking feature last night flashbacked in my mind. The way he caressed me. The way he moaned my name. The way he claimed me. The way he called me his love. The way he stared at me dotingly. They all melted in my mind and stayed in my heart. 'Amira, you are mine and mine only!' I could still remember how he claimed me with possessiveness. It tickled my heart. It gav
Adam POV . . I willed Jasmine to come here. In the meantime, I had no idea where Jasmine's loyalty lay. Sometimes, she looked different. She was someone who could be trusted in small matters. Other times, she was confusing. Her personality had changed a lot since the time I stripped her of her title as the future Luna of the Blood Moon Pack. Jasmine obeyed at once when I told her what to do. She didn't say anything nor ask for any condition for her little sacrifice. She performed the task well. I knew that my nanny for years was scolding Amira in the dining room. With my wolf hearing, I could hear her clearly. A smile crept on my lips on how Myhesni protected and fought for me. She was indeed my mom outside of the womb. I knew that Jasmine heard them, too. I told Jasmine to bring my suit now, at three in the morning, which was very unusual for me. I commanded her to stay in my room for at least 30 minutes or less. When the time was up, I deliberately knocked the books on my
