IN THE MEETING ROOM"Oh buddy, come here!" Nathan exclaimed, getting emotional as he pulled Dominic in a hug the moment they got inside Dominic's meeting room in the pack house. Dominic's eyes widened in shock but before he could react or say anything, Justin jumped on them as well. "Oh, let me join as well!" Justin said as he hugged Dominic from the back. So, Dominic was sandwiched between Nathan and Justin who were making sure to hug him with all his strength. "Ugh! I can't breathe! You guys stink!" Dominic groaned out loudly while trying to push them off himself. It was clear from his red face that he was actually getting suffocated. But the guys weren't moving a little bit. Among all these, the girls were the ones who were enjoying these a lot. They laughed out loud seeing them acting like some college boys and goofing around. The scene was really funny and blissful even though the experience wasn't quite the same for Dominic."Don't make me punch you and just hug us back!" Just
"Enough of Runion, let's talk about business now, guys." Dominic spoke up in a serious tone while sitting on his chair. How much he missed this chair! The chair missed him as well. He needed to get back to work and take control over everything once again.There were three of them present in the room at that moment. The alpha and his second and third in command. Athena and the girls left the room to give them the privacy to get back into work. Justin sat in front of him after closing the door behind him. "A lot of things happened in this one week." Nathan spoke up in a serious tone. The environment of the room suddenly turned cold as if the temperature dropped to zero. "I hope you managed to keep things away from Athena?" Dominic asked in a cold and mysterious tone which they both understood. "Don't worry. Even though she was handling the pack's office and paperwork, she handled only what he wanted her to handle. She is not aware of the other things." Nathan explained with a deep fr
"Dominic, are you sure it's the right thing to do now?" Nathan asked in a worried tone while standing in front of Dominic to stop him from moving. Dominic frowned at him for stopping him like this as he didn't like to be interrupted ever and as his beta, Dominic expected Nathan to know that. "You do realise that you offended me, don't you, Nathan?" Dominic asked in a cold tone which made Nathan step back immediately. Dominic didn't even use his alpha tone but he was already intimidated."I am sorry, alpha." Nathan apologised while looking at Justin for a second to signal him to take the matter in hand. Justin looked back at Nathan with widened eyes before gulping down a little. He let out a sigh and turned to look at Dominic after realising that he didn't have any options "We mean, you have just returned back, we don't think it's going to be a smart move. We think it might be a rushed step. Because even though we tried our best to keep the news away from everyone outside the pack, wo
"So, you finally woke up from the coma. Is it because of the letter my father sent which hints at the must war?" Stacey's taunting tone made Dominic smirk. It's going to be fun…He stood there while leaning on the door casually. His hands were inside his pocket as he smiled at Stacey with a soft smile. He was looking at her as if he met an old friend after a long time and was going to spend a nice quality time together. While Stacey sat on the clean ground with a similar look on Dominic's face. She was smirking back at him as if she was waiting for him to come and meet her. Her usual aura was completely gone where she acted to be kind and soft hearted around Dominic. Right now she was looking like a cunning and shrewd woman which she actually was.The environment was not tense at all like anyone from outside would have imagined; rather it was filled with casualness and 'friendly' vibe. "Well, hello, Stacey. How are you? Hope you didn't miss me much?" Dominic asked with his casual s
"Athena, what are you doing here?" Dominic asked in a confused tone, making Athena jump.Athena quickly turned around to look at Dominic. Her eyes were a little widely opened and the look of getting caught was present in her eyes. She looked a little scared. Dominic took a step toward Athena when he suddenly realized something and stopped midway. He looked at her with a deep frown, making her more worried."Wh…what are you doing here, Dominic?" Athena asked while sounding as nervous as she looked."Shouldn't I be the one to ask you the question?" He asked while looking at her with the same frown which had a little bit of coldness now. She knew what was the reason for his coldness. She looked down, feeling guilty. "And why did you lock your scent?" Dominic asked, his voice sounded dangerously cold, making her flinch a little. Dominic locked his scent as well which is why she didn't find out that he was there. But the reason for him locking his scent is valid. It could create unnecessa
Never in her life, Athena ever experienced how it feels when the ground underneath shakes. Not even when she found out that she wasn't Robert's real daughter. Not even when Dominic rejected her the next morning after they met for the first time. Not when she found out to be pregnant with Ace. Nothing shook her till now.Until that moment when Dominic called her the daughter of the betrayer. She felt her whole world shook and the moment he walked away from there silently, she felt her world breaking apart completely. She knew she wasn't the daughter of the betrayer but it still hurts. But she couldn't even get angry at him. Her heart broke when she saw the look of hurt, pain and many more in his eyes. He looked broken at that moment."Hi…his father was killed?...And Robert was behind it? How?" She asked herself while still standing at the same place, in front of the cells. "A…and what relation Robert shared with Dominic's father? What's going on?" She asked herself in confusion. Her
'You can't go out. Alpha's order.''You can't go out. Alpha's order.''You can't go out. Alpha's order.' Those words rang continuously in her ears, hammering her head hard. Not only her heart, she felt as if her heart was hammered hard and broke into small pieces. Her heart thudded inside her chest, knocking all the breath out of her lungs. She found it hard to breathe. She found it hard to stand on her feet and almost lost her balance but handled herself at the right moment, before she could fall down."No…no…no… it can't happen again. It can't happen. He can't misunderstand me. He can't do this to me after all these! He can't! He can't!" She mumbled to herself while shaking her head to make her believe her own words.She didn't know what to feel at that moment. She felt numb, unable to think of her next steps. Her wolf was whining in her head, unable to believe that their wolf got them locked in a dungeon. But slowly Athena felt anger growing inside her as she thought more and mor
"Don't you fucking know how to follow an order?! Try to do what you are told sometimes! What's your problem, Athena?" Dominic shouted at her while holding her face in her hands, looking for any visible wound. Even though he looked and sounded angry, she easily caught the worry in his tone. She was almost near to melting when she remembered why she was there and took a step back. She moved away from him as his hand stayed in the air which was touching her cheeks. A small growl erupted inside his chest in protest to her distance. "Why did you move away from me?! Come back here." He said in a demanding tone, trying to take the step toward her himself to close the distance she made. But she showed him her palm to stop him from getting any closer with a cold look on her face."I am not coming anywhere near you after what you did!" She snapped at him in anger as she glared at him hard, making him confused. He looked at her with a confused frown as if he couldn't understand what she was tal

It's been five years and everyone in the north region still hates Suzanne. But what happens when she returns from the wood with bruises all over her body a
EpilogueA FEW DAYS LATER"Dominic, do you realise that you didn't have to blindfold me?" Athena asked with a small chuckle as she kept walking wherever Dominic was leading her to. Even though she knew where he was taking her. She could feel it around her. She could breathe the air and tell where she was. She could hear her favourite tune dancing in her ear from a little distance."I know." Dominic replied with a small chuckle but still kept the blindfold on her eyes. Of course she knew where he was taking her. It was their spot after all."I know this place from the deep corner of my heart. I will always know this place in a heartbeat. Why do you always blindfold me whenever you bring me here?" Athena asked in amusement because everytime he brings her here, he does the same. Even though it confuses her, she loves the feeling everytime she sees the place after the blindfold is off. They suddenly stopped walking and she knew that they were there. They reached the place. The sound of

FOUR YEARS LATER"HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU! HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU! HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DEAR ARADIA! HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!" Everyone sang a birthday song to little Aradia, who turned four today. Everyone was happy. Everyone was smiling. "Ari, thank everyone for such a lovely wish." Thea said with a soft smile while looking at Thea who was looking like a princess in her princess gown and beautiful tiara."Okay, godmother!" Aradia said with a toothy grin before turning to look at Nathan first who was looking at her with a teary smile. "Thank you so much, papa. I love you." She said before giving him a hug and he immediately hugged him back. "I love you too, my princess." He said before she pulled away from the hug. She hugged Justin and Patricia as well who was standing there with their two years old baby boy. Then she walked toward Dominic and Athena who were standing nearby with big smiles on their faces as well. She hugged them both together and they immediately hugged her back."Thank
THREE MONTHS LATER "I don't feel good, Suzy." Athena said in a worried tone while looking at Aurelia's flawless peaceful face. Aurelia was born with undefined beauty and they were so beautifully defined at such an age. She got blonde hair from her mother but with a beautiful golden shine. Just like her name. Her eyes are honey golden as well. They have the power of grasping everyone's attention in them."What's wrong, Athy?" Suzanne asked in a worried tone while stopping what she was doing. Athena came to visit her to the shadow eclipse pack this time as she wasn't feeling good in her pack. So, she thought a little change of air would help. Suzanne was doing some paperwork to help Nathan with the pack work while her daughter was sleeping as well."My left eye has been twitching since morning. I don't have a good feeling about it." Athena said as she clutched the pendant which was around her neck. The pendant has always been with her as far as she remembers. It gives her a weird se
A FEW MONTHS LATER "Dominic, calm down. Everything is going to be fine. She is going to be fine. They are going to be fine." Nathan said while trying hard to keep his face straight but inside he was dying of laughter."How would you know about this feeling? You don't know, so don't tell me to calm down." Dominic snapped at him. He didn't have any idea what he was saying. He was just pacing back and forth in front of the hospital room."Well, I think the worry has been messing up with your head because I became a father just one and half months ago. So, I do know how that feels." Nathan said with a chuckle but immediately shut up when he saw the look on Dominic's face. If only looks could kill!"Shut up! What the hell are they doing in there for so long?! Why aren't they coming out yet?! They wouldn't even let me go inside!" Dominic explained in worry and anger. "Don't act like you don't know why they won't let you get inside. You tried to kill the doctor. Poor guy. He didn't even d
"Why is the pack house so empty today?" Suzanne asked as she looked around the pack house and found it completely empty. No people were around. They were walking toward the pack house. "What do you mean?" Athena asked with a small chuckle hearing her weird question as they continued to walk toward the pack house."Well, it's always so packed up but now there's no people around here. Did something happen?" Suzanne asked in a worried tone, her heart was filled with an unknown fear immediately. Athena looked at her in confusion before she smiled in realisation."Oh, I totally forgot for how long you were in a coma. Of course you don't remember what day today is." Athena said with a small chuckle, making Suzanne really confused. She frowned at Athena."What are you talking about? What I don't remember? And what day is it today? And for how many days I was in a coma?" Suzanne asked all those questions in one breath before looking at her expectantly, waiting for answers."Easy there, besti
ONE MONTH LATER"Ahh… my head! It hurts!" Suzanne groaned out loudly as she slowly opened her eyes. She clutched her head tightly with one hand and used the other hand to sit up. Underneath her hand was soft material, meaning she was on bed. But the stench of medicine hit her nose and she knew that she was in the hospital or at least hospital equipment was around her.She was ….alive?She sat up completely and leaned back, at the head board. She finally opens her eyes slowly and looks around in confusion. Her sight was still a little bit fuzzy. She closed her eyes before opening them again and this time was seeing clearer. She looked around the room in confusion as it looked really familiar to her. She looked with more concentration and soon realised where she was. She had mixed feelings about this. She was happy, excited, confused and scared at the same time. She was in her room. In her and Nathan's house.So, without thinking, she hurriedly tried to get down from the bed and that'
They reached the clan of alphas within half an hour. They were divided into various teams to lead the army. Athena and Dominic weren't together at that moment. They decided to go from their elements of power. Athena was going from the lake side while Athena was attacking from the back of the mountain. The war started already but it was led by Nathan and Justin. They were leading other alphas as well but the team of Athena and Dominic didn't show up yet to confuse their enemies.Athena waited twenty minutes before exiting out the back of the mountain. Hopefully long enough for Thea to get the witches and get them captured.Each snarl and growl she heard set her farther on edge. Anxiety rooted her to the spot, while the adrenaline rush was forcing her to keep moving. It was her first time fighting officially and she never imagined that her first time was going to be a war where she was one of the leader Six months ago, she would've never imagined doing what she was doing at that moment
