2024-12-28 00:00:00Draco’s POV
White Moon PackI was getting frustrated at my futile search. We have been to about thirty packs, and I still haven’t found her. My wolf was getting antsy, and I felt frustrated. Where in the world was my mate?Our encounter felt like a figment of my imagination, but persistent nightmares of my mate’s brutal death kept me awake at night. I had to find her and protect her.Sunlight streamed through the gaps in the trees as we raced past. The tree leaves dripped moisture from the early morning dew. A team of rabbits went into hiding on sighting us. The chirping birds took flight at our noisy approach. My wolf, Noble, raced with abandon. I am with my team for the pack tour, and we are all in wolf form.We left the Snow Moon Pack behind us and ran towards the next. In the Werewoods, the most common mode of transportation was to travel in wolf form. We shifters felt at home in the woods and unrestrained in our wolf form. Our hooves

Her Second Chance Alpha Chapter Thirteen: News
Draco’s POV“Welcome once again to our humble abode. We’ve just completed some renovations to the space. We replaced the furniture and redecorated the house,” Maximus explained as we entered. I glanced around the magnificent house. Well, not so humble.“I’ll go get the pack cook to set up the table. We’ve prepared a feast in anticipation of your arrival.” Beta Spencer glanced at me with a patronizing smile on his face.Since I became the Alpha of my pack and considering my reputation as the strongest Alpha in all the Werewoods, I’ve been on the receiving end of such gazes. Most people can’t see past the wealth and glory associated with being me. They can’t reach the blood, sweat, and tears it took to get to where I am today.I ignore Spencer and glance towards Maximus. “How is the general situation of the packs within this area? I presume your knowledge of the packs’ general situation is excellent, given your pack’s prosperity in these p

Draco’s POVOur 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

Sera’s POV“You are up. How are you doing?” Millie walked towards me, looking concerned.“Not good. I still can’t get out of bed without feeling dizzy. 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

Sera’s POV“They’ve been badgering Daphne about the gender of the pup. Also, Ruby tried to escape the nursery a few times to play around the pack but was discovered by Joan. 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

Sera’s POVStill Moon Pack“What did you just say?” I questioned in shock.The others’ faces mirrored my expression. Millie was pale, and Bryan’s eyes went wide in shock. 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

Sera’s POVMillie and Milles moved towards me as the enforcers exited the room.“The plan seems acceptable. With proper execution, we could attain victory,” Millie said. 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 five minutes was up. It was tim

Her Second Chance Alpha Marc’s Death
Sera’s POVI remained in a daze as the pack collected the bodies of dead pack members and arranged for their burial.They were buried two days later in the woods, which was home to all shifters.We shifters are the most happy and fulfilled when racing in the woods in our wolf form and one with nature. Therefore, dead shifters were buried right in the woods, which was a gift from the moon goddess, Selene.The ceremony was held at night, with the uninjured pack members in wolf form as a sign of respect to the dead.The Still Moon Pack was going to bury its Alpha that night, and the woods filled with mournful howls.Sometimes during the wee hours of the morning, after remaining clear-eyed throughout the past two nights and not sleeping a wink, my tired body had given in and I’d finally fallen into fitful sleep.I’d woken up to find my claws gone and my eyes back to normal. I’d unknowingly left my half-shifted state.Now, I stood at the edge of the woods, watching as the large procession
Her Second Chance Alpha Shifted
Sera’s POV My conversation with Draco at the pack’s office once Millie and Miles had left about the new name of the pack remained at the forefront of my mind as I went around the pack for the rest of the day.Even spending time with the twins and hearing about Ruby’s latest adventures had done nothing to purge my mind of such thoughts.Though we hadn’t been able to come up with a suitable name for the pack, Draco had helped me realise the importance of picking a suitable name for the new pack.We’d keep it on hold for now and focus on getting the packs to accept the new situation and learn to accommodate each other.Which was why I was up even earlier than usual this morning. I lay awake in bed, staring up at the ceiling above my head, lost in thoughts.The window by the right of my queen-sized bed remained open throughout the night, and the tree just beyond the window swayed in the gentle morning air.I sighed as thoughts of today’s meeting streamed into my mind just as the wheels
Her Second Chance Alpha Settled (2)
Sera’s POVMiles and I turned to look at Draco.“I already arranged things with my Beta, Sebastian, back in the pack. They should be on their way soon. That end is all settled,” Draco announced with a smile.“Wait, on their way? You mean your entire pack members?” Millie glanced at him in horror while I threw him a murderous look.The intensity of my glare could have buried him alive, if possible.All his talk of coming to inform me about his plans before the Council summons situation was just bullshit.I swore under my breath.He’d intended to do things his way, regardless of my opinion.My look must have been telling of my state of mind, because a sudden strange voice sounded in the sea of my subconscious.A strange, familiar yet unfamiliar voice.“Of course, I care about and respect your opinion, my heart. I was just very determined to do nothing else but convince you.”I stilled in shock at the strangely familiar voice in my head.It was unmistakably Draco’s voice in my head.The
Her Second Chance Alpha Settled
Sera’s POV “How is that even possible?” Millie looked like she’d just heard the most ridiculous joke in history, and I didn’t blame her for that. I gave Draco, the author of the most ridiculous idea in history, an accusing glance. But he just shrugged, without a care in the world. “That has never happened in the history of the Werewoods. Besides, both packs would find it difficult to adjust to the new systems and faces,” Miles said, in contemplation of said ridiculous idea. Millie watched him in disbelief that he would even contemplate how to achieve such an idea. “Have you forgotten that Sera and Draco are alphas in their own right? And that each pack has its leadership?” Millie sounded unconvinced that such an idea could ever work, and once again, I couldn’t blame her. I’d passed through this stage of doubting the idea, and watching her was like watching myself. It was Draco who answered her this time. “Both packs would continue to operate with the previous leadership whil
Her Second Chance Alpha The Real News
Sera’s POV“We are almost at the pack’s borders, Alpha.”Steve, the pack enforcer who’d taken driver duties for the trip, said through the mind link, just as we neared the pack’s borders.I glanced up in surprise at the sudden appearance of his voice in my head, only to meet his stare through the rearview mirror.He had a contemplative gleam as he glanced from me to Draco, who sat beside me.He sure had a sharp nose, seeing as he’d noticed.I understood his words. The enforcers would have to return to their border duties, ignorant of the meeting’s outcome, once we reached the pack borders.“Don’t worry, Steve. I’d call for a meeting to discuss the outcome once we are ready,” I returned through the mind link.The journey back was fraught with a palpable tension, Draco’s presence only exacerbating it. I could feel Miles and the others watching us, hoping to get hints of the situation from our body language.It didn’t help that only Miles knew about the relationship between Draco and me.
Her Second Chance Alpha One Page
Sera’s POVI watched as the elders left one after the other with their entourage while ignoring Draco’s inquisitive eyes on my person.I’d thought it through.Elder Selene was right. With my current state, every single day of being pregnant means the likelihood of being able to shift reduces, because as my pregnancy advances, the weaker I’d get.I sighed, feeling helpless.Female shifters usually carried their pups for just 8 months before giving birth. With me almost 3 months gone, being unable to shift would put my life and that of my pup and the entire pack in danger.From this point of view, this arrangement came just when I needed it. Besides, it was on the condition of a three-month probation.That was something I could always use to my advantage.I’d decided.But I was avoiding Draco now because I didn’t want to have the difficult conversation of why I’d hidden the pregnancy from him.As if on cue, he walked over and came to a stop beside me just as the last elder - Selene exit
Her Second Chance Alpha Sera’s Guard
Present day…“Yes, Elders. I am carrying a pup and I can’t shift because of my pregnancy.”A voice emanated from inside the council hall.I paused mid-stride, in shock at the strikingly familiar voice of my mate.Sera’s resigned voice registered in my head, but I couldn’t process the words she’d altered.The words swarmed around in my head while I stood there in a daze, unmoving.Sera was carrying our pup, the fruit of our union, and evidence of our bond.I shook my head in disbelief as boundless joy filled my heart.My wolf howled in joy, and I knew he wanted so badly to let loose and run unhindered in the woods where he’d found home.But I frowned as I realized Sera had never intended to tell me about my pup. Vivid memories of my time in the Still Moon Pack told me all there was to know. My mate had known about the pup all along, but refused to tell me.Her unusual weakness and the fact that she’d been fighting off wolves while in human form should have been odd to me, but the impe
Her Second Chance Alpha Sera’s Name
Draco’s POVTwo days earlier…“Alpha, you have a message from the Council.”I had just settled into the chair behind the desk at the pack office and was about to dive into the pile of files on my desk when Bruno burst in through the office doors with a letter.I glanced up in confusion, wondering what the Council was up to. It was barely past a week since the pack tour wrapped up and they’d come knocking again.“What does it say?” I asked, distracted by the pile of files before me.“It’s a sealed letter,” Bruno said, showing the seal to me.“Must be another summon. Put it away. I’ll attend to it later.”“Alright, Alpha. Seb said to tell you he has begun the arrangements for the move and asked that I confirm the date with you.”At the pack meeting the other day, I suggested we move to the Still Moon Pack, shocking the pack leadership.But, they had quickly come around after I tabled the moon advantages of the move to them. Which was why plans were in place for the move, even when I had
Her Second Chance Alpha Three-Month Probation
Sera’s POV“In your grand plans, who is going to be the Alpha of this great pack? You know that two alphas cannot handle one pack, right?”I couldn’t keep the sarcasm out of my voice.The Elder all turned to look at Draco, waiting for his response.This question was a tricky one, which was difficult to solve.On one hand, Draco, as a male shifter and acknowledged as the strongest Alpha in the Werewoods, can not be asked to relinquish power to me.It was damned near impossible.As it stood, a majority of the elders on the Council would elect for Draco to assume full authority over the pack.Because I was new, inexperienced and a female.My eyes narrowed as I clenched my fist fight.“Our mate is wonderful, yeah. But, no one, not even someone I like, could Walt in and take what’s mine,” Amary’s voice echoed through my mind, as domineering as ever.For once, I was thankful that we were on the same page.My eyes must have been glowing, for Draco watched me in silence, his attention directe
