"I can't keep stay, I have to do something," Susan muttered to herself.She was seen pacing in her room, thinking of something to avenge her jealousy of Clara a few days ago at the Silverhide Alliance dance party.Luna Susan secretly stole Clara's phone number from Alpha Robin's cell phone. Then Susan sent Clara a message.[Hi Clara. Sorry to be so presumptuous, but this is my phone number. Can you meet me at Harvest Coffee this afternoon? Don't worry. I'm not trying to get in trouble with you. I just wanted to apologize, -Susan-]Clara was watching a movie in her room while snacking when she was surprised by the incoming message."Strange, is she pretending, or is she up to something?" muttered Clara, thinking out loud, "But I'll see. I just want to explain that she shouldn't worry. I'm not going back to Robin no matter what," continued Clara.Long story short, Clara met Susan that afternoon at the place they had agreed upon, the Harvest Coffee Shop.Clara felt a little uncomfortable
"Clara!" Daniel snapped and rushed into the room.Alpha Daniel saw that Clara had immediately fainted and that the Doctor and several nurses were busy with the bleeding."What is it, Doctor?" asked Alpha Daniel frantically.The Doctor replied, "Mrs. Clara had a miscarriage and we had to remove the fetus despite the light bleeding. Please wait outside and don't add to the panic, trust us to handle this and always pray to God." The Doctor continued, slowly trying to push Daniel towards the exit of the room.Alpha Daniel couldn't move. His face was covered in cold sweat. He stared blankly ahead, his body transfixed. Meanwhile, he saw Sierra, who had just arrived. "What happened to Clara, Daniel?" Sierra approached Daniel, panting from running.Alpha Daniel remained silent and sat on the bench in front of Clara's room, his body huddled between his palms.Alpha Daniel was lost in a sea of thoughts full of sadness and regret for realizing too late that Clara was in danger. Now, he felt as
Two days later. Alpha Daniel accompanied Clara to an Alliance meeting. Clara stood tall in the Alliance's Silverhide meeting room as the alphas from the various packs gathered.Alpha Robin looked nervous next to Susan. He knew what would be heard today. The man was also angry at Susan for daring to hurt his child. However, his emotions were easily controlled when he heard that the fetus in Clara's womb had been saved."If you weren't pregnant too, I would have given you your punishment, Susan." Alpha Robin muttered as he whispered to the woman. Alpha Robin held back his emotions and tried to accept Susan's apology because it turned out that the woman was also pregnant with Alpha Robin's child.However, Susan was basically arrogant, stubborn, and heartless. Instead, she stared at Clara with a cold look and a slight smile on her lips. She was confident that no one could punish her.Alpha King Raymond, as head of the court, then began to call Clara to explain the incident at the coffee
Clara's DilemmaA few days after the trial, Susan and Clara's case was adjourned. Alpha Robin secretly asked to meet Clara at a coffee shop.Clara had refused because she was still traumatized. However, Alpha Robin continued to persuade her, making sure that it was essential to Clara's case yesterday.Finally, Clara agreed and brought an Omega with her. The woman also didn't want to have a long meeting and drink something at the cafe later. Alpha Robin agreed.They arrived at the meeting place, a cafe not far from the Dark Moon Pack. Clara went straight to where Alpha Robin was sitting."I don't want to make small talk, try to tell me what important things you want to talk about?" Clara asked. She brought one of the Omegas with her.Alpha Robin looked at the Omega with Clara, "Are you sure this Omega is good at keeping secrets and that our conversation will be safe?" the man asked.Clara narrowed her eyes, "Of course, if you can't keep her here to guard me, I'll ask Alpha Daniel, who
A woman dressed as a maid suddenly looked panicked as she found herself gagged and dragged into a room off the mall parking lot.She looked like she had just finished shopping for her employer's monthly needs. "Who are you?" the woman asked, gasping after the person who had dragged her earlier unlocked her mouth.The person also removed his hood and mask."Lu-Luna Susan!" the woman said in shock."Don't tell anyone I intercepted you. I just want to know what they're talking about," Susan said to the woman who turned out to be Omega Sara, the Omega who accompanied Clara yesterday when she met with Alpha Robin."W-what do you need from me?" the Omega Sara asked in a still stuttering tone.Susan smiled slightly, then replied, "Don't be afraid, Sara. I need some information from you, take it easy. I'm not going to hurt you," Susan said again in a soft, persuasive tone. But Omega Sara looked scared."I can't say anything without Mrs. Clara's permission, Luna Susan. I cannot betray the tru
Today, an Alliance meeting was held to discuss the rumors circulating about the rebel group led by Rogue King Alex.Silverhide Alliance wanted to prepare resistance and defense against the rebel group before they entered Canada.Alpha Robin is busy now as the new head of the Alliance's Security and Defense Department. That makes it possible for Alpha Robin to communicate with Alpha Daniel. Because Alpha Daniel is the current right-hand of Alpha King Raymond.Although we know that Alpha Daniel and Alpha Robin are fighting outside of Alliance affairs, namely over Clara's heart again.Arriving at the Alliance Silverhide Mansion, Alpha Daniel entered the meeting room. Immediately, his eyes fell on Alpha Robin. They stared sharply but tried to remain professional.Unfortunately, Alpha Daniel even sat next to Alpha Robin. Then, after more than an hour of discussing resistance and defense strategies, the Alliance members, led by Alpha King Raymond, took a break while eating lunch in the dini
The tense atmosphere was again seen in Alpha Robin and Susan's room. Both were sitting on the same bed, but Alpha Robin was busy with his cell phone.Susan was distraught and felt neglected because it had been several days since Alpha Robin had touched her at all, even though she was pregnant and needed attention and affection.Feeling bored and unable to sleep, Susan started a conversation with Alpha Robin."Do you still need me? You asked me to come back so quickly, but when I did, you just ignored me," Susan said, immediately shifting Alpha Robin's focus.The man turned to her and stopped playing with his phone for a moment."Don't provoke any more arguments, you should understand that I am in a dilemma right now." Alpha Robin said, which sounded very selfish to Susan."You still want to keep Clara and your child, but you also want me to accept this? Huh," Susan chuckled as she looked away, "What kind of man and Alpha are you!" Susan continued to grumble.Alpha Robin looked at her
Clara stifled a small laugh inwardly."Golden opportunity. You approach him if you like her." Clara replied briefly, and she ended the mind link with Sierra. She didn't want to waste time lingering in the mind connection.Sierra's figure was known to be cheerful and full of energy, even every time she returned from the academy and entered the house, Sierra always shouted, calling Daniel or Clara. Aka, but this time, she instantly looked stiff.Sierra stared at Alpha Edward seriously as if the man was the new center of gravity in the room."Sierra, how long are you going to stand there frozen?" asked Alpha Daniel, which immediately made Sierra work on her eyes."Ah... umm, sorry. I have a guest," Sierra said while stuttering and misbehaving, ''Hi I'm Sierra,'' she continued, immediately introducing herself to Alpha Edward.Alpha Edward smiled at Sierra's handshake, he was indeed a humble man who loved to flatter others."I'm Alpha Edward from Blue Sky Pack. I didn't realize that Alpha
Michael had expected his return home to be met with varying degrees of shock and concern, perhaps even disapproval. But as the evening unfolded, his family’s reaction to the truth of his situation was nothing like he had imagined. Instead of judgment or frustration, there was an overwhelming sense of understanding and support that left him both surprised and relieved.Clara, his mother, had been the first to respond after hearing his full confession. She didn’t shout, didn’t scold him for the secrecy or the mess he found himself tangled in. Instead, she simply sat across from him, her hands resting on the steaming cup of tea she hadn’t yet touched. Her sharp gaze softened as she leaned forward slightly, her voice steady and calm.“Michael,” she said gently, “the Moon Goddess doesn’t make mistakes. If Joe Harper is your mate, then she is meant to be yours, no matter what obstacles stand in your way. And that includes Robin.”Michael blinked, caught off guard by her tone. He had expecte
Michael's days away from Joe were anything but peaceful. The distance didn’t bring the clarity he’d hoped for. If anything, it made things worse. As a werewolf, being away from his mate was almost unbearable. Every fiber of his being screamed for her presence, and the constant tug in his chest reminded him of what he was trying to deny.Three nights passed with little to no sleep. He’d toss and turn, unable to quiet his restless thoughts or soothe the ache that came with missing Joe. By the fourth night, he was at his breaking point. The walls of his apartment felt too tight, the silence too loud. He needed something—someone—to ground him. And so, without overthinking it, he packed a small bag, grabbed his keys, and started the long drive home to his family.The thought of seeing them brought a flicker of relief. He could already picture the playful arguments with Ella, his younger sister, who was always easy to tease. Just imagining the way her face would scrunch up in frustration wa
The drive back to the city was heavy with silence. Michael kept his eyes on the road, his jaw clenched, lost in his thoughts. Joe sat quietly beside him, stealing occasional glances his way but saying nothing. She knew he needed space, time to process everything. And right now, she didn’t want to push him.The tension in the car was palpable, like a storm brewing just beneath the surface. Michael’s hands tightened on the steering wheel, his mind racing. He couldn’t shake the image of Robin’s face, the man he’d tried so hard to erase from his life, now tethered to Joe. Every time he thought of her, the warmth and light she brought into his world, it was quickly overshadowed by the cold reality of who her stepfather was. And that connection—it scared him.Joe shifted in her seat, her fingers fidgeting with the hem of her shirt. She hated this distance between them. Just days ago, everything had felt so right, so effortless. But now, it was like there was a wall between them, one she was
Michael sat behind the wheel, his hands gripping the steering wheel so tightly his knuckles turned white. The car was packed, the engine idling, and Joe sat silently in the passenger seat, staring down at her hands. They were supposed to be on the road by now, heading back to the city and to their normal lives, but Robin’s voice calling out had stopped them both in their tracks.“Michael, wait,” Robin said, stepping out onto the porch. His voice wasn’t commanding, but there was a weight to it, something unspoken hanging in the air. “Can I talk to you? Just for a minute?”Michael froze, his jaw tightening. The last thing he wanted to do was have a heart-to-heart with the man who had been absent for most of his life. He could feel Joe’s eyes on him, silently urging him to say something, but all he could muster was a clipped, “What is there to talk about?”Robin took a step closer, shoving his hands into the pockets of his worn jeans. “I know you’re angry. You’ve got every right to be. B
After the unfinished conversation last night, Robin was going out of town in the morning for two days' business.Michael was curious what Robin would say—if only Joe and Dana weren't interrupted. Maybe the topic is for another moment. Two days went by with the three of them bonding as a family.Michael and Joe packed up their things the following morning, the atmosphere in the house feeling heavier than it had since they’d arrived. Neither of them spoke much as they went through the motions, folding clothes and zipping up bags. The tension was palpable, and though Dana tried to keep things light by chatting and bustling around the kitchen, even her warmth couldn’t cut through the unease that hung in the air.They had to leave soon—classes were starting again the next day, and it was a long drive back to the city. Michael glanced at his watch, his nerves still on edge from his conversation with Robin the night before. He hadn’t brought it up with Joe yet, unsure how to even begin. The
The ride back to Joe’s childhood home had been Michael’s first taste of unease, but it wasn’t until the following morning that the feeling truly settled in his chest, heavy and unshakable. It was like an itch he couldn’t scratch, a whisper at the back of his mind telling him something wasn’t adding up. He woke early, far earlier than he usually would on a weekend, and spent a good ten minutes just staring at the ceiling of the guest room, trying to piece together why he felt so... off.The house itself didn’t bother him. Dana’s warm hospitality was a constant, and even though Robin’s distant demeanor hadn’t improved much since last night, Michael wasn’t the type to take it personally. But something about Joe’s family, or maybe the way Joe fit into this family, was gnawing at him. He didn’t know why, but every time Robin looked at him, Michael felt like the man knew something he didn’t—and that knowledge had weight.Joe found him in the kitchen, standing by the sink with a cup of coffe
Michael couldn’t shake the strange feeling that had settled over him ever since Joe started describing her family. It wasn’t anything she said outright, but something about the way she mentioned her stepfather, Robin, triggered an odd sense of familiarity. He couldn’t quite place it—just a nagging sensation that tugged at the edges of his memory.“So, Robin,” he started casually, glancing at Joe as she drove. “What’s he like?”Joe shrugged, keeping her eyes on the road. “Protective, I guess? He’s quiet but not in a bad way. Just… observant.” She paused, her brow furrowing. “Dana’s the opposite—super outgoing. They balance each other out.”Michael nodded, though his mind wandered. He still couldn’t shake that feeling. Maybe it was nothing—just nerves about meeting her parents.Joe continued, her voice softening. “Dana’s always been more like a friend than a mom. And Robin… well, he’s the one who makes me feel safe, you know?” She shot him a quick smile. “You’ll like them. I think.”Mic
Michael had been poking at the same topic for weeks now, dropping hints and sly comments every chance he got. At first, Joe had brushed him off with quick answers or a roll of her eyes, but Michael was persistent—like, annoyingly so."So, when am I meeting the mysterious family you keep talking about?" Michael leaned back in his chair, arms folded behind his head like he didn’t have a care in the world.Joe shot him a glare over her laptop. "Why do you even care? It’s not like my family’s some big deal."Michael grinned, that cocky tilt of his lips that she both hated and... maybe kind of liked. "Well, if I’m gonna stick around you, I gotta know the people who made you this stubborn.""Stubborn?" Joe narrowed her eyes, but Michael just shrugged, completely unbothered."Yeah, stubborn. And weirdly mysterious about your family. I mean, what’s the deal? You hiding something? Secret wolf cult or something?"Joe snorted, trying to hide her smile. "Right, because that’s totally a thing."Mi
The weekend crept up faster than Joe expected, and with it came Michael’s ridiculous invitation. He’d been dropping hints all week about “big plans” for Saturday, but she’d brushed him off every time. Michael always had some elaborate scheme brewing, so she didn’t take him seriously. That was until he practically ambushed her outside the library after their shared study session.“Alright, Joe,” Michael said, leaning casually against the wall with his signature smirk. “It’s time to stop hiding in your books. You’re coming with me tomorrow.”Joe paused, narrowing her eyes. “Coming where exactly?”“Dinner. My place. Tomorrow night,” he said like it was the most obvious thing in the world.Joe blinked, crossing her arms. “Your place? Why would I—”“Relax,” Michael cut in, waving off her hesitation. “It’s no big deal. My mom’s been pestering me to bring someone over for weeks. You’re just helping me out, that’s all. She’s cooking, and trust me, you don’t wanna miss it. She’s a magician in
