Still Moon Pack
I stare at myself in the mirror as I brush my teeth. It had been three weeks since I ran away from my mate, and I still couldn’t get him off my mind. Thoughts of him occupy my head day and night. The tantalizing scent of wood and musk follows me as I attend to my pack duties. It is my mate’s scent, the mate I abandoned.
I shook my head to steer those thoughts away.
I had more important things to do today than to be plagued with thoughts of my mate. A mate I

Sera’s POV “Alpha, the new members are here.” Miles mind linked me from the pack’s border, disrupting my thoughts. Moving to my closet, I pick out a sleeveless brown top and black shorts appropriate for carrying out pack duties. I move to the mirror by my bedside and ruffle my hair with my hand. My medium-length, thick, chestnut brown hair was always unruly. I brush it into a temporary shape and head down for my meal. I arrive at the table just as the pack’s cook, Cindy, comes out of the kitchen with my meal in her hands. Cindy has been the pack’s cook for as long as I can remember. She watched Marc and me grow up; she is like my mother. “You are up. I was about to look for you in your room. Everyone else has had their meal except you.” Cindy places a plate of bacon and eggs with a cheese sandwich on the table.

Sera’s POVI open my eyes and find myself in the pack’s hospital. Hyde, the pack doctor, is talking to Millie and the others. They all had solemn expressions on their faces. I guess my long hours of overwork had finally caught up to me.“Guys, what’s going on?” I sit up, holding my head.“You tell us. Doc said you are with pup…”My face paled as Millie’s voice faded away. I am in shock at what I heard. I am with what?I can’t believe what I just heard. No, it couldn’t be true; I shake my head in denial. My face is deathly white, and my hands tremble as I hug myself. A familiar feeling of dread settled in my belly, at home there. I thought I had left the incident behind, buried in the past. I have to face the consequences. They’re unavoidable.I am pregnant with a child from a mating I ran away from, A mate I cannot recognize.“Sera, are you e

Sera’s POVThe more I’d loved Dylan, the more his betrayal had hurt me. This pack is full of wounded shifters, broken by the betrayal of one of our own. We protect ourselves from strangers, particularly alphas who might seek to seize control of the pack. My new mate serves as a threat to the pack.I had vowed to protect this pack as its Alpha, but I don’t know if I can keep it.The Shifters Council might assign the pack to another alpha or my mate as its leader. Then, the pack would be easy prey to anyone with bad intentions. My face went pale at the thought; I clenched my fist so tight it hurt. We had to keep this situation under wraps for as long as possible.I woke up the next morning feeling very weak. My head pounds heavily, and I feel sick in my guts. I have a lot of pack matters to attend to, and I can’t afford to laze around. I struggled to sit up as Hyde came in, holding several papers wit

Sera’s POV“Have you been too busy to come see us?” Bill stared at me in question, his voice filled with hurt.Ruby turned to him in confusion. Her deep blue eyes twinkled with curiosity.“I intended to see you both last night, but a minor accident made it impossible for me to come. I would never be too busy for you guys. We are going out to play by the weekend, and I will get you guys your favorite toys!” I carefully mentioned the bribe.Bill, a sensitive pup, made me extra cautious in his presence. The twins were about one year and six months, but they were stronger and sharper than normal pups. They learned fast. Bill is a literal genius and already possesses a powerful aura at this tender age.“Yay! I’m going to get the Pink Princess doll. That’s super expensive!” Ruby ran in circles around me, jumping up as she ran.She wore a pink princess dress that was too bogus for everyday

Sera’s POVThe Still Moon Pack, Werewoods, NorrwickThe dreaded day is finally here. The day I appear before the Alphas and the Council as Alpha of the Still Moon Pack. Lots of people would like to see me fail my first appearance. Many await an opening to swoop in and claim my Pack for themselves.Glancing at my outfit in the mirror makes me wonder if I am making the right choice. I am wearing a casual black top and grey pants. I aim for a relaxed, effortless look; this outfit should do the trick. My green eyes reflect through the mirror, and I wonder how I would survive the scrutiny of everyone. Today is the mating festival, and I must appear before everyone as the Alpha of my Pack.I exit my room to go downstairs for my meal and meet Millie, my Beta, on my way down. “Morning, Millie.” I smile, taking a seat at the table.“Good morning, you mean?” She stares at me in disapproval, arms akimbo.“There is nothing good about mornings, especially not today of all days,” I said, groaning a

Sera’s POVMating Grounds, WerewoodsI turn to find Alpha Lucian and his men watching us with disdain. He is the major Alpha opposing my position as Alpha. Lucian has eyes on my pack and hopes to add it to his ever-expanding territory. He has been challenging weaker alphas and taking over their territory. He is the Alpha with the largest territory.“Are you also here to find a mate, Alpha?” He had a frown on his face.His men all burst into laughter. They are his usual crew, and he takes them everywhere he goes. Their job is to boost his prestige and intimidate others whenever appropriate. I roll my eyes at the thought.“What’s with this dreary outfit? Are you still in mourning?” He eyes my outfit in distaste.My plain clothes must look lame to such an over-the-top individual.

Sera’s POVMating Grounds, WerewoodsAs we venture deeper into the woods, everywhere becomes silent. Suddenly, a branch breaks behind us, and we turn to look. Lucian appears from behind an immense tree, a smug look on his face. His sidekicks appear one after the other and surround us in an ambush.“I promised to make you my mate, didn’t I? Well, I am here to fulfill that promise,” Lucian said. He had a benevolent smile as if he was doing me a favor, but he just wanted my pack to boost his ego further and enlarge his pack.“A woman need not be an Alpha. Just sit pretty as my Luna and let me take over.” He had a condescending look on his face. “Or I could just kill you and take over your pack.” His gaze changed, and he looked menacing.Amary stared at Lucian in disdain, a bored look on her face. I had seen her fight only once, and that was enough to tell her prowess in battle. I had been strong since I was a pup, even before I could shift. Although Marc was the older twin and male alpha

Beautiful singing accompanies the delicious scent, and I approach in anticipation as unspeakable joy wells in me.My wolf, Noble, wags his tail excitedly as we get closer to the scent.
