Draco’s POV

Our conversation got interrupted as the pack cook brought the meal. A plate of pork chops with rice and grilled vegetables was before me. I look around to find my pack wolfing down their dinner. It was a leader’s duty to ensure his pack’s care before caring for himself.

After checking on everyone, I move to tackle my plate.

Alpha Maximus and his Beta, Spencer, led us to the guest chambers. It was a detached little cottage, separate from the pack house and the other houses belonging to the pack members. I nodded my head in satisfaction. It was far away from the hustle and bustle of pack activities.

The peaceful cottage seemed to radiate an air of serenity. It was a good place to rest. I was exhausted, and I was going to pass out the moment I got to the room prepared for me. It took sheer willpower to hold myself together and not fall flat on my face.

By the expression on their faces, I could tell they were tired. I glance at Se

    Sera’s POVStill Moon PackIt was fifteen days after I’d received the shocking news of my pregnancy, and I still couldn’t wrap my head around it. The news had spread like wildfire throughout the pack, and I still don’t know how. My plans of keeping the news under wraps were dead on arrival since the news had spread even before I could get up from bed in the wake of my collapse.The entire pack was in chaos because of the news, and various speculations had spread, even reaching my ears. I hold my head at the thoughts of the most outrageous ones. As I went about pack duties, I didn’t miss the speculative glances I’d been getting.And to make it worse, Millie had been hoarding me about my mate’s identity, but I couldn’t bring myself to tell her the truth. I had escaped the twins’ scrutiny by distracting them with gifts and toys. But, by the knowing look in Bill’s eyes, I knew I hadn’t fooled him.I had taken Hyde’s words with levity and resu

And I still can’t eat breakfast.” By lunchtime, my nausea would ease up a little, and then I could eat properly. I need all the extra strength I can get since the pregnancy is draining me.“Now, don’t you go worrying your pretty head about pack matters? Miles and I are handling it. Max would arrive any day from now. He has concluded the investigation of the backgrounds of the new pack members.”Max is Miles’ best friend and an enforcer of the pack. He loves to travel around the Werewoods and even beyond. He handles all the pack matters conducted outside the pack.“I hope he isn’t cutting his trip short because of me?” I knew he didn’t like to be caged, so I tried to give him as much liberty as possible.“Well, not exactly. He is coming back so soon because of the pups. He couldn’t

The pups are getting restless. Ann went to the bathroom the other day and did not return until Daphne went to find her. She discovered Ann fast asleep on the toilet bowl.” We burst into laughter.We had twelve pups that had lost their parents to the battle a year ago. I created the nursery and left Daphne in charge of the pups. Later, busy pack members dropped their pups there. The pups had become a handful even with Linda’s help.“Sera! Sera! Sera!” Ruby burst into my room with Bill and Bryan at her heels. She rushed to hug me, and I caught her fast, fearing she would bump into my belly. I still haven’t come to terms with the situation, but I already felt protective of the pup in my belly.“Ruby, slow down. I’ve told you always to be careful. What if you’d tripped?” I caresse

The twins glanced around in confusion. Their world was about to shatter, and they had no clue. My heart ached desperately for them.A battle meant bloodshed, and that meant the death of our loved ones. This pack couldn’t afford to lose any more members. We were barely holding on now.“Beta Ralf is back? I thought he had died off somewhere!” Millie’s disbelief was reflected in her voice.Dad had beaten Ralf badly when he challenged him, but his fight with Amary had left him barely alive, and then his men had carried him away. Everyone had assumed his death.However, I’d always known he would return, but not this soon. The pack was unprepared for battle.I needed a rapid, strategic response.I turned to Miles. “How many shifters are with

    Sera’s POVI stood and watched as Bryan left with the twins.“Seriously? His first mission as an enforcer?” Mille rolled her eyes at me.“I had to get him moving.” I shrugged as I glanced at her. The boy needed a push in the right direction. “Besides, he would have kept badgering us to join the battle.”“He can be so persistent.” Millie sighed. “What should we do about Ralf?”All my amusement died at her words. We had only defeated him with Amary’s help a year ago. Now, Amary couldn’t help us.“I have a plan, but only the moon goddess could help us now. The enormous difference between our warriors and Ralf’s concerns me.”Millie sighed, “We can only pray she protects us for the sake of the pups.”“Let’s head to the meeting room.”Millie and I headed out and towards the meeting room. We could hear murmurs of voices floating out of the room. It appeared news of the impending attack had spread throughout t

She reached for my hand and held it in assurance.I looked towards Miles, who stared back at me. “What do you think?”“I agree with Millie. It isn’t perfect, but a starting point considering the pack’s situation. It would have a higher chance of succeeding with Amary, though.”I agreed with Miles. My wolf would have been the much-needed icing on the cake. Amary snorted in my mind. She was still nonchalant about the entire situation, and it was getting on my nerves. A little care would have been sufficient!My anger cooled and left me with my situation and the realization that I would have to confront it without escape.“Alpha, the team is ready!”An enforcer called out to me, interrupting my desolate thoughts.

The rhythmic sounds of wolves’ paws hitting the ground drifted into my ears. A glance at the edge of the pack borders revealed Ralf’s fifty-man army. My pulse quickened at the impending battle.Miles signaled to the others to get into position. The enemy was a few minutes from the first trap we’d laid. I recognized Ralf’s medium-sized light brown wolf at the head of the team. Besides him was a menacing, thin black wolf riddled with scars. He had narrow, opaque eyes, which gave him a cunning look.The rest were medium-sized, average-looking-looking, hungry wolves. They looked like they’d not had a full belly for days. The fugitive life involved hiding and living a genuinely pathetic existence. Such wolves were greedy and malicious because of their life experiences.Ra

I guess having your enemy in the light and you in the dark gave you the upper hand!“I guess you were never ready to take a position as Alpha. Look how the pack has become under your leadership. Come out and battle with me like a true alpha. This is a taint to Aidin’s legacy. Hmph! Your father would be so ashamed of who you’ve become.”I knew Ralf was taunting me, but it was getting to me. The mention of Dad had been the last straw. I clenched my fist with force, and my nails dug into my palm. Blood rushed to my head, and my heart beat in my chest. I couldn’t hear anything over the loud beating of my chest.I extended my claws, and my eyes glowed; my wolf awakened. I wanted so much to rip off his head as smoothly as I did his son’s. Relax, Amary, relax. We couldn’t afford to play his game. He had the advantage in numbers, and we had the adv

He glanced at me in full anticipation.“Uncle, tell me all about your trip. Was it dangerous? Did you encounter rogues on the way?” Theo was full of excitement as he asked.This was my cue to leave while Sophie was distracted as once she got hold of my attention, trying to cut her loose would be like trying to get a red wine stain off a white shirt.She w

I’d rescued the pup by the roadside while returning from a trip to the Crescent Hills two years after assuming the mantle as Alpha of this pack.Ever since, he’d become an unshakable tail, trailing behind me everywhere I went.I’d given him the name Theo, as he had no memory of who he was or where he was from. He was the little sibling I’d never had while growing up.“I guess I’ve now become invisible.”We turned around to find Sebastian watching us with a pained expression.The look of mock hurt on his face was so hilarious and we all burst into laughter.Theo exchanged hugs and received a round of backslaps from the men as we all moved towards the doors of the pack house.

    Draco’s POV We hurried to the Council after a weird encounter with my mate near the boarders Still Moon Pack to report on the Werewoods. As expected, the attack of the Still Moon Pack by Ralf and his pack of rogues had raised alarm bells with the Council. Elder Louis, famous for his uncontrollable temper, had almost lost his head at the purported insult to the Council, which he saw as a stain to his person. He’d struggled to keep his rage under control as he’d screamed, “Preposterous!”” Even Elder Selene, who was good-natured, had a deep frown marring her features. Ralf’s blatant disregard for our team, which had served as a representative to the Council had placed him on the top of their radar. Elder Derek, who was usually stoic and unmoved, had seemed offended by Ralf’s disregard and has sent out a team on his trail. I shook my head at the thought of the fate that awaited Ralf and his team should the hunt sniffed out his hiding place. Elder Derek was usually stoic, but he co

    Sera’s POVI lay in my bed, still battling with nausea and dizziness as I watched Aria move around my bedroom to tidy up a little.She was humming a tone with no care in the world. The pack’s reality remained unknown to her. ‘You know, she could pass for a wonderful little mole. So innocent and unassuming!’ came Amary’s voice in my mind.She’s been a bit too chatty of late.I wonder what happened to staying stoic and muted?‘ So could countless innocent members of the pack. Both old and new,’ I retorted.‘Not everyone is missing a wolf aura!’ Amary said with a snarl.I was just about fed up with Amary’s scathing remarks. ‘Why don’t you sniff out the mole and save us all the stress, since you are so-’‘Alpha.’Aria’s words interrupted my inner battle with Amary, and I looked up to find her standing before me, holding a food tray.‘Cindy was worried since you haven’t eaten all day. She asked that I bring you an early lunch.’I realized that I had not had breakfast all day. I was so pr

  • Her Second Chance Alpha   Lucian

    Sera’s POVI studied them all.I’d never paid attention to the male shifters and was only familiar with Aria and Linda.The male shifters were all lean and muscular, with one of them being a little chubby and shorter than the rest of them, which was rare as a shifter.He was a short and small-bodied shifter with beady, hazel eyes, hollow cheeks, plucked eyebrows, a square jaw and a square face. He had curly brown hair.His build was eye-catching among shifters because of its rarity. I started with him. “What’s your name?” I said to him.“I am Davis. Alpha Lucian of the Alpha of Blood Moon Pack recently attacked my pack, the Pure Moon Pack, which is why I had to leave.”Lucian was becoming infamous in the Werewoods. His obsession with challenging other alphas to take control of their packs baffled me.My encounter with him on the hunting grounds had been nothing short of unpleasant. Our battle in the woods was another thing I’d failed to disclose to Millie.My unexpected mating with

    Sera’s POVMiles continued, “We have to catch the traitor, but before we do that, we first have to block all channels of passing information outside the pack.”“Starting today, we will restrict movement out of the pack. We will tighten border security, and those leaving the pack must state their destination.”We must ensure no fresh information leaked out of the pack until we caught the mole in our midst.I glanced at Steve. “Please note Miles’ instructions and implement ASAP. Make sure you search everyone coming into the pack and confirm their purpose.”“Yes, Alpha,” Steve replied, looking like he just awakened from his daze.Turning to the others, I said, “Max should be back in the following days. He has also investigated the backgrounds of the new pack members. Everyone should know that we wouldn’t put your lives in danger.”“I trust you,” Daphne said, surprising me. The others also nodded in agreement.I wasn’t aware that the pack had so much faith in me. My heart warmed at their

    Sera’s POVI strolled to my place and sat at the head of the table.The sky was clear and streams of sunlight pierced through the window on my right and reflected in my eyes and made me dizzy.I raised a hand to block the ray of light as I adjusted my chair to a comfortable spot, away from the offending rays.Everyone had settled into their chairs and waited for me to speak.I took a deep breath and faced the problems head-on.“I called this meeting to discuss the recently concluded battle and this pack’s state going forward.”The room was silent as everyone listened with rapt attention.“Unfortunately, we lost 5 of our members in the struggle. They fought bravely and ensured that the peace we have today continued.”“They were our brothers and backbone, and we mourn their loss.”My voice trembled at these words. I cleared my throat.Everyone remained subdued by my words. Steve’s face appeared pale, and he looked ill. He was the one most affected by the loss here. The dead enforcers h

    Sera’s POV“I’ll be back, mate. And this time, it would be to claim you as my mate.”I froze in shock as I watched his form fade into the woods, the rest of his pack following closely at his tails.I blinked as I glanced around the room in confusion.That was undeniably Draco’s voice in my head just now. I shook my head to clear it.We hardly used the mind link in my pack; I’d forgotten it also connected mates.Thinking back to his words again made me shudder. It sounded more like a threat.I shook my head to clear my thoughts as I let the curtains down and headed to my bathroom to wash up.My mate was gone, so I could now focus on pack duties again. I had to get things done before my regular dose of dizziness and nausea kicked in.If I couldn’t get any sleep, then I might as well prepare for the upcoming meeting with the top members of this pack.After cleaning up, I moved to the bathroom mirror and stared at my reflection. My eye bags looked terrible, as if I hadn’t slept in days.

A pleasant, mouth-watering aroma wafted around the living area and filled every inch of the room.We were having a feast. Cindy had outdone herself this time—the dishes overflowed with sizzling brisket, paired with a serving of potato salad with apple juice.Cindy placed a plate before me, and my mouth watered. I hadn’t realised I was so famished.An even more enticing aroma drifted into my nose as I prepared to dig in. The thick scent of wood and musk hit me just as chaotic footsteps came from the stairs.Draco appeared at the top of the stairs in his full glory, looking fresh and well-rested. I struggled to look away, barely even paying attention to Sebastian, who had also appeared together.The pull of the mate bond was so strong that I struggled to resist.As more members of Draco’s team followed in their alpha’s wake, I struggled not to look in his direction.They all settled in as Cindy finished se
