Alpha Selene,Arriving at the meeting point, I found my packmates waiting at the outskirts near the spot I had found my mates… My heart skipped a beat at the thought of Sebastian and Damon laying lifeless there as I had found them.'Point of correction, our mates,' Snow reminded me and I playfully rolled my eyes at her possessive attitude towards brothers who had not yet claimed us…But what are they doing here? I hope it's not about the twins again… I felt a lump grow in the back of my throat as I maintained a stern poise.They were all in wolf forms that exuded worry. Among them were Beta Xander, Beta Mia, and our esteemed Oracle Zeka, nicknamed "Bunny" due to his unmatched speed in our pack. His ability to appear and vanish in an instant always left me wondering if he possessed some sort of teleportation magic.Stepping into the circle they had formed, I addressed the group in mind link, 'I've arrived. Could someone please inform me about the reason behind this urgent gathering in t
Alpha Selene.Should I pick using the Eeny, Meeny, Miny, Moe nursery School rhyme or maybe accept Damon's hand since he was the one who won the first challenge???No, pick Sebastian, he is more mature than Damon…'Just pick both. One hunk on one arm l, and the other one on the other hand.' Snow suggested but it was out of the question to accept both brothers and walk me publicly to my esteemed guests.My armpits began sweating. Oh goddess, how I wish I could openly say yes to both brothers and allow them to tame me. I felt a flutter of nerves as my gaze darted between the two of them, unsure of who to choose. "So, who will it be?" Damon inquired in a husky voice, a mischievous twinkle in his eye, causing my heart to race. Meanwhile, Sebastian maintained a mysterious look, his dark eyes holding a hint of desire... I sighed softly as I stood frozen."Alpha Selene!" A familiar Serbian accent echoed in my ears, drawing my gaze skyward. Looking up, I spotted the charming trio of nearly i
Alpha Selene,Reluctantly, Sebastian and Damon rose from the table, their eyes filled with intensity as they regarded me."As per your request, my lady," Sebastian whispered, offering a slight bow before departing. Meanwhile, Damon drummed his fingers on the dining table, a sign of his inner turmoil, before finally pinching the tip of his nose and voicing his thoughts."I'll grant you this reprieve solely because you uttered the word 'please'," he asserted, stepping nearer to me. His fingertips gently caressed my cheek, and I found myself leaning into his tender touch, momentarily losing myself as I closed my eyes.'Could you possibly allow them to stay?' Snow pleaded, her voice filled with longing for one of her mates' touch. However, as I opened my eyes, I found the elders of Silverstone observing me with mischievous glances and smirks on their faces.I swallowed quickly."How has having two mates been treating you?" Elder Nikola teased, causing my stomach to churn with embarrassmen
Alpha Selene,I miserably failed at getting information out of Sebastian and now I was caught red-handed by goddess knows who, nearly doing the forbidden deed with one of my unclaimed mates... I swallowed nervously before I spoke."Who is there?""My lady, the elders are here and request your immediate presence," Hana's voice projected from the other side of the door, breaking the spell of our stolen connection."Darn it," I hastily uncrossed my legs from behind Sebastian, firmly planting my feet on the ground, and swiftly readjusted my dress. "I must be on my way," I declared, despite feeling a lingering desire to stay in his presence a little longer."Alright, go ahead. I wouldn't want to cause any inconvenience for you," he replied, cautiously picking up his shirt and effortlessly donning it, exuding confidence resembling that of a seasoned supermodel... I momentarily gawked at his sight.I flickered my eyes out of my mini daze and prepared to leave, then suddenly I became aware th
Alpha Damon,Fuck! I wrecked Selene's car, I mulled deeply as we were being towed back to the mansion by a Gamma named Owen but that was the least of my concerns as I made a solemn promise to myself to cease all communication with my so-called perfect brother. His recent secrecy surrounding his newfound healing ability contradicted our previous agreement to collaborate and support each other in our quest to claim the throne.I wondered what else he was hiding.Nevertheless, I have decided to forge my own path and abandon any intention of partnering with him in the future...Fast-forward, Green Eyes arrives as we did looking heller fine in her wolf then turns back to her human in our presence and informed us of the imminent arrival of guests from a neighboring pack, and emphasized the importance of prompt preparation to ensure a warm welcome for them.At last, here was an opportunity to divert my attention from my brother's self-centered behaviour and proudly showcase my newfound confi
Elder Leon.Days prior…The midday sun cast its warm glow over the pack territory, as I, Elder Leon, sat on the porch of my humble cabin not so far from Selene's castle.In Yellowstone, I was feared and the most avoided elder because many claimed that I was grumpy and old and they were right. Yellowstone morals were slowly decaying because of a stupid term called modernization, a little she-wolf was imposing on us because she was unmated and was hell burnt on ruling the pack without an Alpha male.Hence, I rallied my two fellow elders into forcing her to attend all mating balls in Europe in order for her to find an Alpha male until one peaceful afternoon when she was attending a ball in Romania. So peaceful… I sighed softly as I listened to the birds chirping and calling to their mates when suddenly an unexpected visitor that wasn't allowed to roam our streets freely shattered the peaceful tranquillity I enjoyed. Who goes there?I gazed out into the distance, lost in my own thoughts,
Alpha Sebastian.After Selene instructed us to leave the dining room due to my brother and my misbehavior, I aimlessly ascended a staircase, pondering where I was being led. Eventually, I reached a tower room that was sparsely furnished, containing only a cozy nook nestled beside a magnificent, oversized window.This looks like a good spot to gather my thoughts about my brother's sudden rivalry to claim Selene.Taking my jacket off, I plopped down on the nook back first; deep in my thoughts. Why was Damon acting like I was not his brother??? Memories of when we were younger flooded my mind.***The memory***"Daddy, I don't want to share my toy with Sebastian…" younger Damon whined with pouted lips as he folded his hands."You are twin brothers Damon, and sharing this one toy with your brother won't hurt." A strong faceless figure tried to make peace between the two of us but Damon did not listen… Once upon a time, Damon and I, being twin brothers, found ourselves embroiled in a confli
Alpha Damon,With a 30-minute head start, I will definitely beat Sebastian at this challenge. My feet thudded loudly against the ground as I made my way to the inhabited island the elders spoke of.The treacherous night of the lunar eclipse was fast approaching and I needed to get to this remote island before my brother.Given a 30-minute head start, I was certain that I was going to win this challenge as well…My heart was racing and when I came to a sudden stop, I stood at the base of the perilous mountain, I realized that I must have taken a shortcut and that fate had chosen me for a solitary trial within the Trial of the Midnight Tides. With a mix of anticipation and uncertainty coursing through my veins, I prepared myself mentally for the challenging climb that lay ahead.With a deep breath in and out, I took my first step upwards. With each step upwards I pictured Selene's beautiful green eyes, her beautiful smile.Suddenly the air grew colder and more biting, the path narrowing
Alpha Damon,Waking to the most beautiful woman on the planet my eyes had ever set on, I smiled feeling contentment wash over me with everything good I had going on in my life and today, I was edger to say something nice about the brother I had become so envious of because of my selfish claims on Selene…"Okay, red is definitely your color babe…Ready?" Selene's voice resonated from behind me while I looked at myself in the mirror one last time before I walked out of the castle."Yes, I am, are you ready?" I turned around and caught the most beautiful sight. Selene was clad in our traditional red ensemble we wore during memorial services."I am. Mother, father, and Orion have already started off, let's get going before we are late," she said and I walked closer to her scenting her intoxicating scent, I smiled."After you, my lady," I placed my hand on her waist, and she let out a crimson tight-lipped smile.We walked out of the castle, straight into our car which was waiting for us… Th
Luna Selene,Returning home from an amazing vacation, I couldn't wait to hold my son because I felt like he missed me so much, I was going to smother him with unconditional love to make up for all the moments I missed out in his life because of what I was going through the past few months.After the vacation, I felt reborn and ready to take on the world, and then Mom and Dad dropped a book on us as soon as we arrived."We want to host a memorial service in honor of your brother tomorrow," father's authoritative voice boomed, I pretended to be busy with my son Orion as he revealed what the pack members were fussing about.I can't deny but Sebastian's topic was a touchy one because in as much as I had moved on, part of me still loved him, and maybe that's why I was seeing his image once in a while during our vacation… but then again, Esmeralda had said it's an evil version of him that wanted to claim me…I sighed heavily as I watched Damon silently walk away from us minutes after we arr
Alpha Damon,An amazing week later, I breathed in the familiar scent of my pack's territory as the car that picked us up from the airport made its way through the dense forest that led home.Yes, we were home already as the fun-filled week had gone by in a blur, I couldn't wait to see my son and get back into the normal duties I had waiting for me. I sighed heartily."Oh I can't wait to see my baby boy," Selene squirmed softly while looking out at the window as she sat next to me."I'm sure he can't wait to get his mother back," I replied, clasping her hand tightly, she looked at me with a smile."Thank you for always watching out for me," she said with her eyes smiling."You don't have to thank me for anything, I'm your mate and it's my duty to always watch over you my love," I said to her, her smile widened and she rested her head on my shoulder."I love loving you Damon," she said and my heart skipped a beat…The week-long vacation had done wonders for my Luna, Selene, helping her r
Luna SeleneThe next morning after spending a whole day doors re-acquitting myself with Damon's sexy body during our sexcapade, the sun's warm morning rays danced upon the azure waves as I felt incredible standing next to my man Alpha Damon on the powdery white sand of the exotic island. "Ready for what I have planned today?" He leaned over and whispered in my ear in a husky voice, my body shuddered deliciously while my brows furrowed."I thought we were doing nothing seeing that last night I barely got any sleep," I responded in a low voice and he smirked mischievously."Oh that's a problem then, because I have the whole day planned with activities that might tire you again," he said and my heart skipped a beat.What did he mean he had the day planned full of activities? I sighed softly looking at the horizon and then Jose pulled up in a four-seater golf cart and walked up to us with a bright smile."Good morning Mr and Mrs shepherd, ready for the fun day ahead?" He clasped his hand
Alpha Damon,Reaching our destination for our much-needed vacation, I strolled along the sun-kissed shores of the exotic island after a night's good rest, feeling the warm grains of sand between my toes. The salty sea breeze played with my hair, while the vibrant colors of tropical birds danced through the air. It was the perfect paradise, for Selene to escape her stressful life back home and get back to her normal self."Good morning, sir," a local passing by me, greeted me warmly, I nodded in acknowledgment. The humans here were so friendly, I did not feel threatened as I explored their territory."How was your first night here with your wife?" Jose appeared from nowhere and began walking with me."Good morning Jose, our night was peaceful for the first time in months," I answered back."Oh that's good to hear sir," he spoke rapidly." So what would you like to do this morning after breakfast?" He asked inquisitively."I don't know, you tell me what I can do with my wife,""Well, the
Luna Selene,weeks prior...As the days turned into weeks, and the weeks into months, I suddenly found myself spiraling into a dark and unsettling world of paranoia after Elder Leon attempted to take our lives... I couldn't shake off the feeling that I was being hunted by something so evil. This presence always lurked in the shadows of the night and haunted my dreams and every waking moment. Fear became my best friend as it always gnawed at my heart, for I knew that if this malevolent force succeeded in its deeds, it would not only bring harm to me but also to my cherished loved ones - Orion, and my mate, Alpha Damon...Don't get me wrong, I tried countless times to tell Damon about the dreams but every time I did, this evil presence hunted my dreams with even more gruesome ways it could end Damon's life, I was scared it would actually do the things it showed me, hence I chose to shun away from my family and keep my mouth shut.I sighed heavily while Damon made an effort to put me ba
Alpha Damon,A few months later after everything went back to its normal routine… or so I thought..."No, no, no…" Selene murmured while shaking her head from side to side on her pillow, I woke up and sat next to her wondering what nightmare was threatening to consume her sleep this time around."Babe," I made an effort to reach out to her but she opened her eyes like the undertaker and slapped my hand out of the way, my heart skipped a beat as I was caught off guard by it."Ahh, Damon!" She began screaming frantically as she jerked up from the bed with beads of sweat formed on her forehead while panting. I got hold of her before she could harm herself."Selene, babe" I yelled at her while holding on to her, she flickered her teary eyes, stopped screaming, and looked at me with trembling lips."Damon?" She called my name breathlessly as if she did not recognize me."Yes babe, it's me," I moved closer to her and clasped her head before resting it on my chest."Was I dreaming again?" She
Luna Selene.It has been precisely ten days since I kicked ass because of Elder Leon's stupid failed plan to end my family, and we are now focused on returning to our regular routines, cherishing the joyous moments of nurturing our precious prince Orion."Hey babe, I have just put Orion in his crib. I want to get a show….." I gasped at the sight before me as I entered my bedroom." Hey sexy mama, come over here," Damon called to me using his index finger while he lay on the bed with only a silk white bedsheet covering him up to the waist. I gulped slowly."Hi, "I stuttered faintly as I took a few steps into the room and he let out a naughty smirk, while I could see his stiff rod twitching at my sight. My eyes widened."Come here, Daddy wants to play with you," he said in a husky voice with a wink, my core knotted."Have it been more than 7 days already," I teased with a naughty smirk and he let out a low growl."From my counting, it's been more than 7days,"I let out a tight-lipped sm
Alpha Damon,The moment Selene walked into the dungeon prison-like building where I was being held, I could sense her. From her intoxicating scent and her aura, I undoubtedly knew she had come to my rescue even though I had asked her to stay home and wait for my return with our son.I clenched my fists weakly, my eyes burning with frustration as I stared through the cold, iron bars of my prison cell. The familiar scent of dampness and despair clung to the air, a constant reminder of the dire situation Selene joined. "Women and their impatience," I grunted as I paid attention to their light-quickened footsteps as they walked.Fuck, Selene. Why did you have to come to me? I huffed and puffed even though my body was sluggish from the spell that surrounded me.What was she thinking walking into Elder Leon's trap? I took short breaths while I made an effort to keep my head up even though it felt like I was holding up the heaviest brick I had ever carried on my neck... Oh goddess, please
