Her Second Chance Alpha Cellmates
"Why the fuck didn't you run away with Axel and Damon?" I shout at Caroline. Or, at least, I try to shout in her direction as the dungeon is so dark I can't see where she is."You didn't order me to run." Her voice is so calm that it just pisses me off. It's like it's another Thursday afternoon for her."Oh, my bad then. I guess I didn't expect that I need to. Even more I thought that an order for me to go would have made you want to stay. Just because!""You are a member of my pack that was about to be taken away by the enemy. I know you don't like me, Rose, but not even you would be stupid enough to think I'd just run away and leave you behind."I am so damn close to tell her that she killed me before, not just abandoned me. She also led her pack to certain destruction to protect the enemy. But I have to remind myself that that Caroline is dead and the one sitting next to me in a dungeon knows nothing about our past life."If I wouldn't have gotten Nala, would you stand by me?" I as

"The Moon Priestess. A pleasure to meet you. Let me introduce myself, as I am the one who brought you here. I am Leon BlackBlood." The king has a pleasant smile and is dressed impeccably in a very expensive-looking suit. His office is enormous, with leather couches surrounding a long coffee table in the middle and a massive dark wood desk by the window. The walls are full of shelves holding all sorts of books and antiques."You didn't bring me here, I came on my own, as I could have ordered your people to go with far less effort than I needed to order two Alphas.""Well, neither of them is really an Alpha, right?""Axel will be Alpha in a month and Damon already is, right?"He leans back on his chair and looks me up and down, that pleasant smile still lingering on his lips."You are so familiar with my son. I suppose it's normal since the Moon Goddess blessed both of you. What does your mate think about your close friendship?" He asks, as he signs me to take a seat and pushes a cup of

Breathe in and breathe out. Mind the pace of the heartbeats. Mind all the little muscles in your face. Your breathing. Your position on the chair.I wonder if he took any precautions before inviting me in his office without chains? I wonder if I could gather enough strength to give him an order or what did he instruct the people that are probably watching this meeting through hidden cameras to do in case he gets compromised.The Moon Goddess warned me not to try the order on him before. That he lost the connection with her entirely and there's no telling how he would react. But if I have no other choice?"What gave you the impression I consider you a fool?""The fact that you really thought you can tell me whatever you want and I will jump to believe you without checking it, Miss Rose." He accentuates my name like it's a threat, but despite the lump that formed in my throat I try to play along."I don't consider you a fool. But you should extend the same courtesy. I wanted to check if

"It's been three weeks and every time I see you here, you have the same expression on your face. I wonder if you can get wrinkles from frowning in a dream." I say as the familiar world resided by the Moon Goddess takes shape around me."I don't know about wrinkles, but you'll certainly give me heart problems." Damon offers me a cheeky smile, but even so, I can see the deep circles around his eyes. On his otherwise perfect appearance, they seem so out of place."I won't get caught... He can't possibly know I can commune while in wolf shape. And Caroline even started training with Nala so they seem like they communicate through the pack link. I am being as careful as I can be." I try to erasure him as well as I can, while brushing my hand against where his arm should be. Instead, only warm air greets my touch."It's not you I worry about... But I can't forget who Caroline was and from what Axel has been telling me about your Beta's reaction, that man is up to no good.""I'm still surpri

"If you expect me to drink this like I did last time, you are wrong. That was a show of my good will, breaking the ice for our cooperation. Now, it's plain insulting." Also back then you knew nothing and my lies and half-thruths landed on a blank page. Now I don't know how I'll be able to go around the truth if he ties it to the lies I've been telling him."Yes, indeed. But you forget that you are the one than needs this cooperation more than I do so you despite the terrible insult, I think our friendship will survive, Miss Rose.""Or I could order you to drink it, order the people that would burst into the room to drop dead and then find all your secrets. One moment of communion later and you lose everything you worked to build. And all I lose is my life." I smile as I get in his face. "Death hurts, but it's not that bad when you know you'll just start over a second later.""Then why didn't you order me? Now and in the past?""Now, because I doubt you'd take the insult as well as I d

"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

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
Her Second Chance Alpha Liar brother
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. Our spies reported that they wou
Her Second Chance Alpha No one leaving
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
