Martha

Tears blurred my vision as I threw my clothes and little belongings blindly into my bag. These past hours have been like a nightmare to me. Everything I thought I believed in, came crashing down like a pack of cards.

I still couldn’t believe that Alex was capable of all the claims that had been put on him, but it made perfect sense if I thought about it deeply. And that was what hurt me the most.

He lied to me, kept such a huge secret from me, one that was so bad, I couldn’t ignore it. Everything he has said to me was based on a huge lie. A Wanderer? A Traveler? I can't believe I was that gullible.

Well, it’s all over now. I’m going back home, consequences be damned. It might have been quite a rash decision to make, but what’s done has been done and it beats staying here.

I hauled my little luggage out of the room. I made sure to leave the door unlocked in case he came in and I left the burner phone since I wouldn’t need it anyway.

    AlexI blinked, trying to bring my vision into focus. Everywhere was so blurry, and I felt so weak, I could barely use any of my limbs.It was a struggle. The more I tried to open my eyes, the more it was hard for me to keep staying conscious. But I forced myself to push through with it, and I opened my eyes, slowly, but surely, nearly blinded by the bright white light that unraveled, right in front of my eyes, nearly blinding me.I winced at the pain in my eyes, but once the pixels cleared, I could properly see that I was staring at a white ceiling.Looking around, the room was white in general, but what caught my eye was the IV stand right beside me, connected to my arm. And that’s when the memories came flooding back to me.“He’s up! Alex is up!” I could hear someone shout and when I turned to look, I saw that it was Martha. She looked so worried, yet so relieved, it made my heart swell.“Quick, call the doctor! Don’t just stand there!” I heard a woman scold. It was a pretty blond

    Martha“Take it easy, don’t strain yourself,” I whispered, gently leading him into the house, even though he insisted that he doesn’t need help.Alex chuckled, kissing my forehead lightly. “I’m okay, Martha. I’ve told you for the millionth time already. I think I can survive walking into the house on my own,” he teased.I pursed my lips, mind filled with doubt, but I left him alone as he said, allowing him to walk without using me as support.The “house” in general, was Kai’s house, where he graciously invited us to stay, at least until Alex gets better. He insisted that we stay, because there was no certainty that Lucian might still be monitoring us, plus he wanted Alex to be taken good care of.“You’re welcome to our lovely home,” Lindsay greeted, with her ever-present smile dancing on her lips. “Please, feel free to explore and have whatever you like. If you need anything, just ask me or Kai,”“Thank you, Lindsay. It really means a lot, for you guys to offer your place to stay,” I

    Alex“Enough,” I boomed, drawing nearly half the attention of the pub, except for the already inebriated.I wanted to wince at the sudden attention being placed on me, but I swallowed down my discomfort and focused on the two men in front of me.“And who the fuck are you?” The one with the ginger beard asked, turning his anger on me.“Just a concerned citizen,” I muttered, rethinking my decision entirely.I could sense the waves of misunderstanding flowing between the two men. They were hurt deep down by their words and their actions. But the anger and pride wasn’t making them think straight enough to talk it out.“Well, mind your goddamned business before I fuck you up!” The other one with cropped dark hair retorted.I was barely fazed by their words and threats. Just sizing them up and the rest of the untrained men in this pub, I could beat them all hands down, without breaking a sweat, save for my current injury.“Just listen to me—” I started again, only to be rudely interrupted.

    MarthaI came into the room, holding some medium sized cans in my hands. Alex frowned, looking down at them. “Where did you get those from?”“The garage, outside! There were a lot of unopened cans and I just thought…” I trailed off, gesturing towards the room.He deadpanned. “You…want to paint the whole house,” the way he said it was more like a question than a statement, but I ignored his dry tone.“Not the whole house, silly. Just this room. There’s a fine shade of lavender here, that I would love to try,” I told him excitedly.With nothing to do here, what better way to spend time, than to paint? “Are you sure about that? I mean, yeah the house was gifted to us, but is it really okay that we paint it?” He asked cautiously. “I mean, we need some tarp and covers to protect the bed and we need to move a few things…”“So, you don’t want to paint with me?” My voice was small now; I felt disappointed and unhappy. I thought it would be a fun activity between us, but I guess he doesn’t w

    AlexI woke up the next morning, feeling highly refreshed. Maybe it was because the bed and pillows were so soft and fluffy, or because I could relax a bit from danger, but it was the best sleep I’ve ever had in a long while.I yawned and stretched, turning to look at Martha who was peacefully sleeping next to me. It made me smile. The way her nose scrunched up cutely when she slept, those little noises she made…it was so adorable.I liked her like this. At peace.When I first met her, she was always tensed up and stressed, always carrying such a heavy burden on her shoulders. Seeing her all relaxed and safe made me so glad.Which brought me back to the thought that kept on pressing in my mind. The offer Andrew and Danny gave me.I still couldn’t believe that they really want me to become the leader of Netharand. It didn’t make sense why, but they were so serious and persistent.I really haven’t thought of an answer to give them yet, but I was honestly considering it. It would be such

    Martha“Morgan? Is that you?” My mouth parted open slightly in shock. It felt like I was hallucinating for a second and I wanted to confirm.He chuckled in that rich voice of his. “It’s me in the flesh,”“What are you doing here? How did you know we were here?” Alex laughed, pulling him in for a bro hug, to which Morgan responded accordingly.“A little bird told me you were in this town, so I had to come in and check for myself if it was really you. Turns out it is,” he explained.“As for why I’m here, that’s a really long story,” he scratched the back of his neck.“Well good thing we have more than enough time here,” Alex jokingly said. “Please come in, we have some tin cookies for you,”“Yum,” Morgan replied amusedly, his eyes twinkling with mirth. “If I must say, Martha, you’re glowing more than I last saw you,” he complimented, causing me to blush furiously.“Oh, you flatter me too much,” I replied, red faced.“Hey, that’s my mate, you know?” Alex cut in, playfully acting jealous.

    Alex“What, why?” I had to ask. I was confused as to why his tone suddenly got all serious now. He shifted in his seat quite uncomfortably, his eyes wavering as well. “I think you should reconsider telling them because…well, to ensure that you still get the position,” I frowned. “I don’t understand what you’re getting at,”“You don’t know how they would feel on hearing about your past, you know? They might take back their offer because they wouldn’t want to get on Alpha Fenrir’s bad side by helping you,” he said sheepishly.I thought over his words for a while. He isn’t lying, Alpha Fenrir instills fear into the hearts of many and it wouldn’t be that surprising if they do change their mind.But it didn’t make sense for me to keep my true identity and past from them. In fact, it’s more dangerous and it would make me untrustworthy to keep secrets from the people who put their faith and loyalty in me on the very first day that I arrived in their village.Besides, I am sick and tired of

    MarthaI woke up languidly, stretching myself out on the bed. Alex really wore me out, I could still feel how sore I was down there.I opened my eyes and saw that I was already getting dark, which means that I’ve been asleep for a long while, that is. I yawned and looked to my left, but Alex wasn’t there.I shook away the creeping feeling of fear threatening to worm its way into my heart. He probably is in the bathroom or downstairs doing something, there’s no need to be alarmed, right?I tied a towel around my naked body and went to the bathroom, in search of Alex, but he wasn’t there.“Alex? Where are you?” I called out, listening to my voice echo off the walls. I received no reply in turn and I almost panicked.“Alex? This isn’t fun anymore. If you’re here, just tell me now,” I said, trying to lighten the heavy feeling in my chest.Still, no reply. I rushed upstairs with quickness and severity. My heart was thudding against my chest. Where could he be? Was it Lucian again? Is he in

    MarthaIt was like I was witnessing the most gruesome war I have ever seen in all my life. Even when we werewolves go out to hunt, even when we attack hunters who threaten our territory, it was never like this.The battlefield was bloody, smoke mixed with ashes with the putrid smell of blood filled the air and also my nose.Everywhere I looked, there was an unpleasant sight to see. I found comrades and enemies alike getting cut down and massacred with no mercy.It made my chest twist a little, but this fight was necessary. It was needed, if we wanted to get free from the clutches of both Alpha Fenrir and Lucian finally.“Don’t show the enemy any mercy! Fight and push your way through! For Nether Moon!” Alex shouted somewhere on the field and I had to look away as he plunged his hand through an unlucky man, ripping his heart out.“For Nether Moon!” They cried out in response and it seemed like that little boost was what they needed to build their confidence once more.I would say, I w

    AlexAfter Star and Martha reconciled, we spent a day at Red Moon before coming back here, to Nether Moon.It was a very emotional moment for mother and daughter, as well as the people of Red Moon, but we couldn’t have stayed back there, without tackling the remaining issues still on ground.I put Geri in charge of supervision and he took the leadership role in place of Lucian since he was the perfect candidate to do so.Not only did he work under Lucian diligently, but he is very learned and informed about how Red Moon worked, more than I ever would, which was an added benefit.It also helped that he was well liked in the Pack, so I knew I made the right choice. Even Martha agreed with me on it.Right now, Martha and I were in the huge office of our Nether Moon mansion, going through the files and documents that Morgan had compiled earlier.“It’s not enough. All this evidence is not enough, Alpha Fenrir will still find a way to break through the case,” I groaned, tossing the papers i

    MarthaAs Alex delivered the truth, there was pure and utter silence, one could even hear a pin drop. They all looked baffled and shocked by their Alpha’s evil deeds and even Star was in disbelief.“D-dad? Please say something. Tell them all their accusations aren’t true, please,” I heard her whisper and my heart completely shattered.The fact that she still had faith in Lucian, despite all the crumbs of disgusting things she herself has witnessed, but clinging on to the remaining hope she had left, was very…sad.Lucian gritted his teeth and stared down at the ground, but he didn’t say anything, confirming everyone else’s suspicions, if they had any.“There you have it,” Alex clapped drily. “This man has served you all for over eighteen years, doing all of these wicked deeds, for his selfish reasons!”This riled up the crowd as they began to yell and cry out expletives at Lucian, cursing him over and over again.“Kill him!”“We don’t need someone like him anymore!”“Off with his head!

    AlexI found Lucian in his study, sifting through files with a frown on his face, oblivious to the attacks outside the house, like I had expected him to.“I knew you would be here,” I sneered at him, slowly walking into the study, revealing myself. He looked so startled to see me, it was laughable. I could see a bunch of emotions flicker through his face, but he settled on the one that was most familiar. Hate.“You,” he glowered. “What are you doing here? How did you bypass my security?”I snorted, opening the door to show the piles of men laying down on the cemented floor, unconscious. “These men?”He gritted his teeth, but he didn’t say anything.“Now, I’m sure that you know why I’m here. Surrender your Pack now, or otherwise, I will take it from you the hard way,” I simply told him, paving up and down the office.“And if I don’t?”I grinned. Oh, it would be so much fun to smash his face in without any more distractions.There was silence for a while, before a roar brought my atten

    MarthaThe cool morning breeze attacked my skin like pins. I wanted nothing more than to go back home and curl into the king-sized bed, but this was it. Finally, the time for retaliation has come.Alex noticed my silence and intertwined his fingers with mine, squeezing my hand tightly. I managed a weak smile and stared down at the town in front of me.It was strange. The one place I thought to be my home, was the one keeping me restrained, was the one place where I couldn’t be who I wanted to be because I was afraid of the public view of me.Now that I’ve experienced a taste of freedom, a taste of peace and happiness, I’m ready to close that chapter of my life. Even if it means storming down and declaring war right at this moment.So, standing by the border of Red Moon Pack, with an army of over four hundred, I felt confident and more sure of myself than I’ve ever been in a while. I squeezed Alex’s hand back and stared deeply in his eyes.“I’m ready,” I simply told him and those two w

    AlexAfter the news Kai came to drop, I made sure the training, as well as the defenses were high. There was barely any time for me or my men to rest, but it was needed. Lucian and Fenrir were threatening us, holding both Geri and Star hostage and using that to gain an advantage over us. I wasn’t going to take that lightly.“Argh! Gyah!” Grunts were heard from all angles on the training field. Instead of creating dummies to use as target practice, I made them all face each other, to improve their skills and abilities.It was quite stressful and frustrating at times since I had over four hundred men to supervise and train at the same time, but I managed in the best way I could.It also helped to have Savage and Kai helping as well, otherwise, I would have snapped and fucked them this up on several occasions.The training took a huge toll on both my body and mind. I was barely at home and the times when I was, I was worn out of my mind to give Martha my time.We found a way to make it

    MarthaA couple of days passed after the conversation I had with Alex. We came to the decision that after the whole thing settles down, we’ll be able to buy the bookshop and turn it into a public library.But for now, we wait. And waiting was draining the soul out of me.Being pregnant again, to the love of my life, was one of the greatest things to happen to me. Just knowing that I was carrying my mate’s child, brings tears to my eyes every time. I'd only been able to dream of this all my life, but now I’m living in my fantasy world. Still, I couldn’t help but be mildly irritated by the way people around me treated me, especially Alex. Everyone was tiptoeing around me, treating me as if I were delicate and could shatter easily.I get it, their intentions were kind, but sometimes it felt overwhelming. I was just pregnant, not fragile.“Have you thought about buying the baby clothes yet? Your pup will pop out sooner than you expect,” I laid back in bed as Sara sat in front of me on th

    AlexI looked up at the slowly rising sun, enjoying the cool breeze fanning against my skin like a gentle caress. I looked at my army of women and men alike, who were all standing at attention, waiting for what I would do.“To your positions!” I yelled out, splitting the silence.Without any hesitation, they all walked forward, standing in front of the positioned targets right in front of them that they would need for practice.“These are your enemies! I want to see how you’ll attack when you see them! Use all your might and force! As soon as you bring your target down to the ground, proceed to the next obstacle,” I explained.Grunts and cries filled the air as they attacked the dummy target in front of them with all their might. As easy as it sounded, I made sure that it was nearly impossible for them to take it down.I had discussed with a few of the most skilled craftsmen to create the dummies, so that I’ll be able to test their endurance.All these rogues, or should I call them sol

    MarthaMatthew came back to the dining room alone, looking around. “Where’s Alpha Alex?” He asked.I shrugged and looked around as well. He left the room without telling me where he was going, so I didn’t know where he could possibly be in this big house.“I don’t know, he didn’t say,” I told him. “But I’m sure that he’ll be back soon,” “Okay. Can you tell him to come and meet me when he’s back. I’ll be in my study. It’s in the hallway to the right, on the third door,” He informed me, walking briskly.I nodded. After a while, I went to the living room and found Sara sitting on one of the couches dejectedly. I wondered why. I barely saw her at the coronation, so why was she in this mood?“Hey,” I greeted, sitting beside her on the cream colored couch.“Hey,” she responded without feeling. “What’s wrong? I didn’t even see you during the coronation and at the party. Did something happen?” I asked worriedly. It was odd seeing her this quiet.“More like, what didn’t happen,” she muttere
