Devika’s POV “Are you okay?” I questioned feeling overwhelmed to see her awake finally after so many hours which really felt like forever to me. Exhaling, and not being able to keep within myself I dipped down my head and left a lingering kiss on her forehead, “Oh, finally you cared to open your eyes. I was just so scared,” I sighed while caressing her face and continued, “with the thought of losing you.” The dam which I had controlled for the whole time, broke at that moment. A tear slipped out my eyes seeing her smiling at me, with the fact drowning in that she actually is staring and smiling at me. She raised her hand and wiped the single tear off my face. “I am fine, but I think you are not.” She chuckled and sighed laying her head back on the pillow. The pain was clearly visible in her eyes but still, she is being brave enough for me not to worry. “Luna, I’m sorry for interrupting you both but it's important.” A lady standing beside Eva said taking my attention away from my mat
Devika’s POV “When did you learn about it? And why did I not know anything about it till now?” Adrian questioned seeming just equally confused and frustrated at the time. He was not able to believe that whatever he heard is a fact… a fact about his mate. And, how come it was unknown to me, to us till no. “How would you know about it when I, myself was unaware of it? I learned about it back at my old pack that too because of the magic stone, that bastard took me for.” As I mentioned the magic stone, I realized it must be left in the Silver Crest Pack. “Where is the stone? Is it safe? Did that unholy shit take it with him?” I questioned looking at everyone only to get a confused look back from them which gave me my answer that none of my words any of them understood. Only hope left, and I turned my head to Lady Anna who was the only one I could expect an answer from, from whatever I heard her saying earlier. As I looked at her, I was just praying and expecting for her to have some kno
Adrian’s POV Mess, a big mess it is. Devika is a witch, which she was unknown about until yesterday. The news was just too much for me to handle, I have heard of such cases where even in our kind, werewolves are late springs who learn about their wolf or powers after a long period of time. And, my mate is one of them from her kind, hybrid. “We have a hybrid mate. Wow.” Hunter said smiling widely learning the fact. “Why are you excited about it?” I questioned not understanding his excitement as for me it is very normal. She is still my mate, that too the one I chose, and the one who chose me as hers. She is still the same for me just with some added powers and identity. But, it was the opposite in the case of Hunter, “Why should I not be? Having a hybrid mate is exciting. I would get to see a new her with the tinge of our still, old Devika. The sight of her learning powers, excelling in them and evolving into her witch form, everything is something making me feel the way I am feelin
Adrian’s POV “What do you mean? How come that alone man managed to kill so many and not get caught?” Devika gasped not being able to take in the news she heard about the death of her family. The pain of losing someone is painful but to learn about them having a painful death just multiplies the level of it, especially after it being so many years. “He had everything planned well to execute his intentions, he was well aware of what he was doing. And, being the high rank member of the pack, he was well aware of what, how, where, and when to accomplish his task.” Such pack members just deserve to die, they are one of such fish which just spoils the whole water or destroys it. I cannot understand how can someone go ahead with the idea of breaking the pack bond and relations they have enjoyed since their childhood just for some mere powers. I know the magic stone is nothing near mere but for me, in front of my pack and the pack members, it counts nothing. And, I am not saying this just b
Adrian’s POV As the sun began to set, I pulled the car up in front of the hospital getting anxious about finally taking my mate back home as she is being released today. She was admitted to the hospital the night she opened her eyes due to wolfsbane somewhat still being remained in her system giving Willow a hard time. Devika even felt her fading away making her panic, so not taking any chances Rodger said to get her hospitalized. A sense of guilt always takes place in my heart whenever I see her on the hospital bed. If I would have been able to protect her, she would have been alright now but instead, she protected me whereas I failed. With her being in such a state everything around me seemed to be just dull and dry, even Hunter had closed off connection with everyone with Willow being so weak and I understand him completely. It has been three days since she got hospitalized and Rodger said she can leave as her system is clear. Just Willow would need a few days to be completely cu
Adrian’s POV “AHH…” Yet again hearing her scream I flinched. It is the fifth day since she started practicing her powers and still, my heart shook hearing her scream, gasps, and whimpers due to taking the attacks of Eva and Lady Anna. No, they practice with her individually she is not burdened to take so much right now. Lady Anna is a wise and nice queen who thinks about her people and cares for them, but also is strict when it comes to practice. At the beginning of two days, when I tried to help Devika, I was scolded by her. And, now that alone is the reason I am not with my mate to support her as I have been banned from being near her during her training hours. As per everyone, I help her with nothing but definitely cause a distraction to her. “Alpha, I cannot believe you still get so nervous about Luna's training. It has now already been a week, you should worry so much. She is doing good, Eva said she will soon be great with handling her powers.” Samuel said walking beside me as
Devika's POV “Hunter, please don’t be mad at me. I had just been so much tight scheduled with my witch training and wolf training that I get drained afterward with no energy left in me. I’m sorry, about that. I promise from now on I will take the best care of myself and not exhaust my body to this level. But for now, please forgive me." Trying to cool him down I said while leaning my head on his shoulder. Adrian informed me about Hunter not liking the no-communication days between us. For one or two days it was okay, but for a week he felt painful for Willow and me. Being so much exhausted and again getting up early for practice every day made my body go sick which the doctor clearly stated was due to my body not being able to handle the overwork. And, that was enough for Hunter to get pissed because he had been asking me not to do so or else I would get myself sick but I did not hear him resulting in such a condition. "'He said he doesn't want to have any conversation with you ri
Third Person’s POV “So what is the plan? She has been training her powers passionately which is not at all positive for us.” Said the man sitting and glaring at the flames of the bonfire set between all the five of them sitting. “We won’t be able to get our hands on her if she aces in it and not to forget about how strong her pack is.” He looked around at the rest of the four men who nodded their heads at him, but one among them disagreed. “I don’t think so.” The man sitting in between said while having a serious look in his eyes. With confusion, the others looked toward him not understanding what their mate meant. “Her being trained before getting in our hands would only make it easier for us. Just we would have to make her get her under our control to get what we want.” Saying the last words, he looked up from the flames and arched his brows up waiting for their replies. But seemed like not everyone agreed with him as some shook their heads. “But, that could be dangerous. Her
As the days turned into weeks and the weeks into months, a sense of tranquility settled upon the Silver Moon Pack. The imposter's defeat had served as a powerful reminder of our collective strength and unwavering determination. Our pack members continued to train diligently, their abilities evolving and expanding with each passing day. Amidst the peace, Adrian and I found solace in each other's arms. We would steal moments of respite amidst the bustling pack, venturing into the depths of the forest where the magic stone remained hidden. There, in the sacred silence, we would reconnect, our souls entwined in a dance of love and understanding. It was during one of these stolen moments that a subtle ripple in the air caught my attention. An instinctive shiver ran down my spine, and I looked into Adrian's eyes, knowing that he had felt it too. Something was amiss. With a shared determination, we followed our intuition, retracing our steps back towards the pack's territory. The once fami
Excitement crackled in the air as the pack absorbed the implications of this revelation. The opportunity to harness the stone's power and unlock their own dormant abilities ignited a fire within them. They stood taller, their gazes alight with newfound determination. In the following days, we guided pack members through the rituals and practices required to connect with the magic stone. One by one, they tapped into its dormant power, their latent talents blossoming like the first buds of spring. From warriors to healers, from trackers to seers, each individual discovered their unique strengths and honed their skills with the aid of the magic stone. As the pack flourished under the stone's influence, our bond grew stronger than ever before. We reveled in the shared growth, the collective knowledge that we were a pack of warriors, bound not only by blood but also by the indomitable spirit that resided within us. The imposter may have been lurking in the shadows, waiting for an opportu
In the moonlit hours, when the world was hushed and the stars painted the night sky, Adrian and I would often steal moments alone. We would venture into the heart of the forest, finding solace in its embrace. In those quiet moments, we would reflect on our journey and reinforce our resolve.Underneath the canopy of trees, bathed in the gentle glow of moonlight, we reaffirmed our commitment to each other and to the pack. Our connection deepened, entwining our spirits in an unbreakable bond. Together, we were a force of nature, guided by love, loyalty, and an unyielding determination to protect all that we held dear.As time passed, whispers of the imposter grew faint, carried away by the winds of uncertainty. It seemed as though our protective measures had proven effective, the magic stone concealed from prying eyes. But we knew better than to grow complacent. The imposter's desire for power and the potential havoc they could unleash upon our pack remained a constant threat.Word sprea
As we walked back through the forest, a newfound sense of tranquility settledAs we walked back through the forest, a newfound sense of tranquility settled within me. The weight of responsibility remained, but the knowledge that we had taken a crucial step to safeguard the magic stone brought a measure of peace to my soul.Adrian's presence beside me was a constant source of reassurance. His strong, steady strides matched my own, our footsteps falling in sync as we navigated the winding paths of the forest. I couldn't help but marvel at the seamless unity we shared, the unspoken understanding that flowed between us. We were a formidable team, complementing each other's strengths and filling in the gaps with unwavering support.As we emerged from the forest's embrace, the familiar scent of the pack's territory enveloped us. The air buzzed with anticipation as we approached the pack's clearing, where the members awaited our return. News of our mission had spread, and the tension among t
Devika's POV The dense forest stretched out before us, its mysterious depths calling to me like a siren's song. The air was heavy with anticipation, a palpable energy that sent shivers down my spine. Beside me stood Adrian, my mate and the Alpha of our pack. With every step we took, I could feel his strength and determination radiating from him, reminding me of the responsibility we carried as the guardians of the magic stone. I focused my senses, attuning myself to the surroundings. The forest seemed alive, whispering ancient secrets that only a chosen few could hear. The rustle of leaves underfoot and the soft hush of wind through the trees created a symphony of nature, guiding us deeper into the heart of the enchanted woods. As we ventured further, the air grew thicker, infused with the unmistakable essence of magic. I could feel its tingling presence, a delicate dance upon my skin, as if the forest itself acknowledged our purpose. The familiarity of the surroundings washed over
Days turned into weeks, and the packhouse buzzed with renewed energy and camaraderie. Adrian and Devika had emerged from the ordeal stronger than ever, their bond deepened by the shared experience. They reveled in the simple joys of everyday life, cherishing each moment they spent together. The pack members, too, celebrated their reunion, organizing a gathering to honor the resilience and love that had brought them back together. The atmosphere was filled with laughter and music, as the packhouse resonated with the sound of joyous celebration. It was a reminder of the unity that bound them, a reminder that no matter the challenges they faced, they were always there for one another. Amidst the revelry, Devika and Adrian found a moment of quiet reflection. They escaped to a secluded spot near the river, the gentle sound of flowing water providing a soothing backdrop to their conversation. Devika leaned against a tree, her gaze fixed on the shimmering surface of the river. "Adrian, I c
The packhouse was filled with an uneasy silence as Adrian searched frantically for Devika. The realization that she was nowhere to be found had sent a wave of panic crashing through him. He had scoured every corner of their shared living space, calling out her name, but there was no response. It was as if Devika had simply vanished into thin air. Adrian's mind raced with worry as he retraced his steps, trying to remember the last time he had seen her. They had spent the morning together, sharing breakfast and laughing over silly jokes. Devika had mentioned something about going for a walk in the woods, wanting to clear her head. It was unlike her to disappear without a word, and Adrian's concern grew with every passing minute. He rushed outside, his keen eyes scanning the forest's edge, hoping to catch a glimpse of Devika's familiar figure. The tall trees stood still, their branches swaying gently in the breeze. Adrian's heart sank as he realized he had no clue where to start looking
Devika could feel the weight of the impending clash, the gravity of the situation pressing upon her shoulders. She knew that her actions in the moments to come would shape the fate of her pack and determine the course of their future.With a flicker of movement, the woman in the black cloak broke the silence. She stepped forward, her cloak billowing around her like a dark shroud. Her voice carried an air of authority, tinged with a hint of amusement."You are a brave one, Devika," the woman said, her tone dripping with condescension. "But you underestimate the forces that are at play. You cannot comprehend the depth of the darkness that surrounds you."Devika squared her shoulders, her gaze unwavering. "I may not understand everything, but I know enough to recognize a threat when I see one," she retorted, her voice laced with determination. "And I will not let you harm my pack."The woman chuckled softly, a chilling sound that sent shivers down Devika's spine. "Oh, my dear, you have n
Devica, the Luna of the pack, prowled silently through the dense underbrush of the forest. Her heightened senses were on high alert, the scent of her imposter lingering in the air. She had caught wind of the doppelgänger's deceitful intentions and was determined to uncover the truth. Moonlight filtered through the canopy above, casting ethereal beams of silver onto the forest floor. Devica's white fur blended seamlessly with the glow, granting her an otherworldly presence. With each step, her paws barely made a sound, her movements becoming an elegant dance with the night. As she neared the outskirts of the pack's territory, Devica caught a glimpse of her imposter, a sleek and cunning replica of herself, slipping through the shadows. She quickened her pace, her heart pounding in her chest. Her instincts urged her forward, determined to expose this impostor and protect her pack. Devica pursued her imposter relentlessly, her eyes never straying from the silhouette in the distance. The
