Her Second Chance Alpha Traitor in two lives
"That is problematic..." Is all Damon has to say after I tell him everything."How is the Alpha ceremony coming along? Are you still best friends with Axel?" I try to defuse the tension, but Damon throws me a murderous look."He is making things harder than he should. Mostly because he doesn't want to have the ceremony without you by his side as he wants his first order to be the one that names you Luna. His father’s last act will probably be beating his ass if things continue this way. But if we don't hit any other problems, it should be next week and the celebration will be held in the MoonWalk's territory. Alpha Carson was open to the idea as long as we evacuated all the omegas beforehand."I can't help but chuckle at the idea of Axel insisting his first order be naming me Luna. I wonder what would he do if the memories of his past life would return to him. I guess he wouldn't lose much sleep over it. Just like Caroline wouldn't despite our friendship. For them all my worth is in m

"You will pay for this!" Like thunder, his voice breaks in my mind, echoing in vain as no answer comes from me. I pray he continues to be too consumed with his fury to remember Caroline. I hope the shock keeps her silent. And I wish I wouldn't have told her anything. Maybe I clinged to a friendship that I never had and it was too easy to forget who I was dealing with. Maybe I felt sorry of how alike we needed up being. But by the look on her face, I know she will protect her father, just as she was trained to."You should answer, Beta. I am curios about it..." The rogue king smiles like a snake looking at its prey. He didn't need the Beta, he just wanted to test me and maybe have some entertainment in between. Just like Damon said... he is as arrogant as he is powerful."How could I know what I would do in another life?" He growls, not from anger, but from the effort he has to put in avoiding the order even for just a moment.I almost jump out of my shoes when the king starts laughing

After that conversation with Caroline, she simply blocked the pack link between us and ignored me for the rest of the time. Not one word, regardless of what I tried to ask. And what disturbed me more than the silence itself was the fact that I could see on her face it wasn't rage or betrayal or anything of sorts. It was just pain. Pure, unfiltered pain."Want to go for a run?" I ask increasingly more desperate as the Alpha's meeting is in two days and I didn't have the chance to talk to Damon about all of this. I feel him pulling the strings of our connection, but there was nothing I could do."Sure." is the first word she says in days and I sigh in releief."If she tells the guard that you are communing, I won't be able to pull you back in time, girl." Nala intervenes to warn me as we walk outside."I have no choice. I have to speak with Damon.""Then if you feel me dragging you back, try to hurry." She says before the world goes dark around me. Nala takes control over my body and I

"Why not order the power to come back to you?" I ask, curiosity overshadowing the confusion for a moment. This entire situation is out of my pay grade as I don't even know if Damon is aware of his half-brother's existence. He never mentioned it to me and it seems like a pretty big deal..."Nature has an order of things. For wolves, once the power leaves you, you can not gain it back. And I am a proud man, I will keep my dignity if nothing else." The king explains, but Thomas laughs at his words."He plans to declare himself king of all werewolves and he can't do that if he is still attached to one pack. That was never a problem before, but with victory so close, he needs to sort out this family mess. And he has no choice but to use me. The unwanted spare..." Thomas explains nonchalantly and the king seems annoyed by his sincerity."I see... And what would happen with Damon?" I dare to ask. He already knows we were close at some point. Closer than I was even with my mate so it would be

#Axel's perspective#My father's laughter pulls me from my own headspace and I have to pay attention to the conversation again. We came into the city to talk with the rogue as Rose was very clear that absolutely no one else but us should know about the collaboration or the fact that he can communicate with her. And that quickly transformed in the rogue and my father having a good chat like they are old friends. No... like he is the son he never had.I didn't catch what the rogue said to make my father laugh, but it was probably something smart. It's always something smart. No wonder Rose looked at him like that... Like he mattered so much to her. The last time I saw my mate, she was looking at him. Now everything I get from her is through him."Did she leave any message for me?" I ask, interrupting them. I see him looking away, like he does every time he is about to lie."We didn't have much time for messages, but she asked me to tell you she misses you." Damon answers with a grave ex

#Axel's perspective#The Beta left for my aunt's place today and despite not being happy with that assignment, he was arrogant enough to accept it when my father publicly said that he was the most respected and capable member of the pack and that was why he was sending him. My aunt is prepared to make him run around his tail with some meetings with another Alpha in the north that's a strong allay of hers. So he will certainly have a lot to report to his new friends.And now all I have to do is wait for the big day. Caroline always joked, naming it a coronation. In a way it is, but, thinking about it it feels more like the weight of the future is placed on my shoulders while my father has the chance to breathe for the first time in years. No wonder some Alphas hurry to have children as soon as they take their role. Those are the normal ones, who go insane under the pressure. The ones that don't want children just to hold on to the power are... interesting.In my restlessness, I try to

The Alphas who agreed to help from the start moved closer, pushing the rest to the side so we can discuss a thing or two. I can see Axel with the corner of my eye, but I don't have the courage to face him yet. In the explaining that I did earlier, I had to mention a few things that involved him in the past life and I know he is hurt, but... this requires a longer and more private conversation.Fortunately, everyone is so caught with the entire war thing that no one thinks to ask why Damon stands next to me instead of my mate.Everyone but Luna Karina. When everyone spreads out for a small break, she approaches me with a stormy expression. Damon takes the hint and walks away, all the eyes following him like he's a jailer. With a straight posture and a half-smile, I can see he's enjoying it more than he should, though."I tried to break through this dream a few times. Just like the other Alphas surely did too. I tried to connect with anyone from my pack to try and wake me, but that was

I am shaken awake by Caroline, who has a terrified expression on her face. I almost jump out of bed when I see her, but as soon as I open my eyes, she sighs in relief."You sleep like you're on fucking drugs!" She snaps after I ask her what the hell happened. One second I was sitting with Damon in front of a very angry gathering of Alphas, the next, I am pulled back by Nala in a panick.I hear a loud bang on the door before Thomas' voice comes through, full of annoyance and urgency."Listen here, you little pack girl, you have one minute to wake her or I'll..." He doesn't get the chance to finish that pseuodo-threat because I open the door."What the hell happened?""So you're not in a coma.""Oh, come on! I am a good sleeper, but this is ridiculous. And it's not even morning yet!" I point at the pitch black sky outside, wondering how on earth did they figure everything out so fast."Apparently, some Alphas, if not all of them are in some type of coma.

Her Second Chance Alpha Happy ending
"Damon! We really need to hurry!" I try to sound assertive, but it sounds more like a moan. His hand is roaming under my shirt , leaving a burning sensation of pure desire on every inch of skin he touches. I get drunk with his smell, his presence, his love. So much so, that it worries me what I will do when the mate bond finally snaps into place. Will we ever leave this room?But to find that out we really need to leave. Like five minutes ago.I manage to peel Damon off of me with the promise of tonight being our first time as mates and with that we are out the door to Caroline's Alpha ceremony.We drive by the southern packs that managed to rebuild most of what was destroyed in the war. By how things are going, they will become fully independent again in less than a year."The road helped a lot of them connect to resources." I say, proud that we could make it real. My grandma started it by telling me how nice it would be to be able to just drive to her cousin's pack in the north. Wit
Her Second Chance Alpha The end of the war
Werewolves don't fight in daylight. I think it's one of the first things I remember my teacher saying, way before I could truly comprehend the meaning of it. It was fine until a century or two ago when, if any unlucky human saw anything they would have been considered mad, but now, with phones and cameras in everyone's pocket?We are wolves in the shadow, humans in the light.We were. Until this war. Until the rogues broke every rule we have ever been taught and we had to push ourselves out of everything that felt right in order to defeat them.Once the sun starts to rise, and the piles of bodies gather around the open field, every instinct screams at me to run. To hide. I see everyone around me feeling the same, everyone remembering what we've been taught. Except our enemy, who teached their children that victory must come at any price.I see people so tired, they can't maintain their wolf form. They fall on their knees, so tired they don't raise their heads when the enemy bites off
Her Second Chance Alpha It's on, bitch
"This time, everything will work perfectly." Damon seemed confident, even though that never happened before. And I really, really wanted to believe him, mostly because I needed to, but also because he made it seem so real. Like we had a chance.But that chance slips a little bit through my fingers with every look the council throws at each other. Or even worse, with every look they sneak in Thomas' direction. Waiting for him to take a decision, to take the lead. And unfortunately, Thomas is not desperate, he is young and has all the time to be cautious and smart about his decisions.After a bit of bickering, the king explains his reasoning in an avalanche of ill-fitted sentences."It would be unwise to march, while we lose the base." Someone comments."This is absurd!" Thomas finally bursts and shouts at his father. "Damon doesn't have enough men to take over the pack. We left enough warriors there to make sure of that. We can't march back, wasting everything because you got informati
Her Second Chance Alpha Silence before the storm
On the second night of the funeral march, once we reach the fourth pack that abandoned their territory, I see Thomas starting to put things together. His father calmed down a lot and is now advancing slower, making sure the sentinels spread in between the bases and the army can maintain the pack link and keep the communication open. No shadow of the Strychnos plant.That's not good."This doesn't feel right." I say to Thomas as we find ourselves walking next to each other."Why are you scared? Even if it's a trap, your mate will protect you. No one will jump to punish a Moon Priestess.""Yeah... But..." I let the silence speak as I look at the ground. I know Thomas looks at me so I brush my hair off my face so he can see my teary eyes."But you're not sure." Thomas tries to sound sympathetic, but I would be a fool not to feel the satisfaction in his voice."He is my mate, he would... protect me.""You know, every time you say the story of your past life, there is one detail that doesn
Her Second Chance Alpha Strychonos plant
Caroline is standing so close to me, I can feel her breath on the back of my head. The king wanted her to be on the other side of the little funeral march as Damon called it, but Caroline looked ready to snap a few necks before she would be separated from me."As long as my pack stands, she is my Luna! It is my duty to protect her or die trying!" None of the men in the office questioned her determination, so she was allowed to act as my bodyguard if it came down to it."Wish you'd have been as determined in the last life too." I can't help but clap at her as we make our way to the MoonWalk pack's borders."Yeah... me too." She answers, to my surprise. Usually, when I make remarks like this she counters with the fact that I wasn't powerful or useful enough to be accepted, let alone respected as Luna. She must sense my surprise because she's quick to explain. "I know. That's what I thought all my life, but... I know Omegas who wouldn't have betrayed the pack for all the power in the wor
Her Second Chance Alpha The trap is set
"Your friend was put in another room." Thomas is by my side when I wake up, gently pressing an ice bag on the left side of my head. But even with that, I can feel every second of Caroline's training throbbing in my head. I bite my lip as i get up and make sense of my surroundings, mostly of the little silver bracelet that stands as proof of the fact that I am not a good liar. If I would have, the king would have trusted me by now."It's fine... I deserved it." I tell him as I grab the hand he offers to help me stand up. He holds it for a second longer than he should and I realize I was staring at him. Well, not at him, at every feature that reminds me of Damon."I'm sorry about earlier. I just... A lot of things happened at once and...""It's ok." No it was not and he is a piece of crap, but if I can't fool the father maybe I can the son? "I was surprised since you said you have a girlfriend and you know... I have a mate.""Yeah... She really doesn't want to be involved with this so s
Her Second Chance Alpha You are not my mate, Rose
"I haven't seen you freeze like that since you got a wolf." Caroline snarls at me as she closes the door after us."I wanted to test something.""And?""And it confirmed that the off feeling I had about Thomas was because he was… interested not because of something more sinister." I answer while trying to use the pack link to tell her that she can't, in fact, trust Thomas. But despite everything, I am still blocked."Remind me to complain about this logistics flaw to the Goddess. She can't lock me out forever." I say to Nala, but the ancient she-wolf is not in the mood for joking."She has enough on her plate. You need to find a way to return to the meeting and warn them!""She can't see what is going on?""To make your mate's prison stronger, she locked herself in too. They have no connection to the outside. The only reason you were able to wake up was because I pulled you out by force." Nala explains and my last hope of a plan finally working, as Damon promised, gets tossed down the
