Luna Selene,'Who is Tessa?' my mother-in-law's words rang repeatedly in the back of my mind while I searched my head for a reasonable answer to give.Oh goddess, what do I tell her? I felt my knees grow weak, I swallowed nervously as I felt a cold sweat drip down my spine even though it was a cool Sunday morning. What do I tell this innocent woman goddess??? My stomach churned uncontrollably."Selene, who is Tessa I overheard you talking about?" Mother repeated the question, and my heartbeat increased.Oh Crap! 'Tell her the truth my lady, maybe she will talk some sense into her son's mind,' Snow implored via mind link but I refused.Why you ask? Well, yes I know mother knew of our silly differences which she thought were mood swings from the pregnancy but I had not told her about the recent findings I had found out about her son's other woman I could not face because she was just a pack slut and me confronting her would cause a great scandal in the pack…Imagine the headlines, 'Al
Tessa,A few months prior…How dare Alpha Damon reject me like am nothing? I felt anger surge within me while I rushed back to my house.Anyway Thank goddess, no one was around to witness his rejection, because I was surely embarrassed by it...And within a few minutes, I arrived in the comfort of my cozy home after the humiliation Damon did to me just because I was in love with him.Like come on, Was I wrong for falling in love with him? I rushed into my bathroom and looked at myself in the mirror above the faucet, I had panda eyes from all the crying.Oh, my goddess! I sighed sharply.Maybe I wasn't good-looking enough to be a side chick to him? I huffed and puffed, searching my mind on how I could convince Damon that I loved him more than his mate and I was willing to go the extra mile just to see him be mine.Oh goddess, what do I do now? I mulled deeply then suddenly my wolf mind linked to me.'Why not do what we do best to trap him like the others?' she suggested and a sinister
Alpha Damon,The moment my lips met Tessa's, I felt a surge of conflicting emotions. Tessa and I had always shared a deep connection of understanding ever since she apologized to me, and her love for me was undeniable. But as the kiss lingered, an unsettling feeling grew inside me, causing my heart to race wildly. I couldn't shake the image of my pregnant Luna, Selene, from my mind.'Damon, what are you doing?' Vlado mind linked to me, my eyes popped open, and I saw Selene's face on Tessa's, I flickered my eyes repeatedly while my heart skipped a beat.Oh crap… This does not feel right! But then I had already told Tessa that I would be divorcing Selene to make her my new Luna. There was no going back.Oh goddess, what is happening to me?Breaking away abruptly from Tessa's lips, I felt a mix of relief and confusion wash over me.What was I doing here when Selene was hosting my son's baby shower???No, I need to be with her… this revelation tugged at my heart. I took a step away from
Luna Selene,"Ahhh" I screamed painfully while clutching my nails into the leather seats of Damon's car, mother-in-law soothed me by rubbing my back."Selene, breathe through the pain instead of screaming," she advised, demonstrating with short breaths. Despite my weakness from the blood loss, I started imitating her..."Okay Mom, but my stomach hurts so much," I huffed and puffed breathlessly, my body felt weak."It's okay honey, we will soon be at the hospital," Mother pushed little strands of hair out of my face and then faced her son. "Damon, please drive faster, she is losing a lot of blood back here," she tapped on Damon's shoulder, and he stepped on the gas.A few minutes later, we arrived at the hospital, Damon carried me bridal style like a damsel in distress, and I sneered while repelling his disgusting touch.He wanted a divorce but why care about me in my time of need? I rolled my eyes, then I felt more hands touch me before I was gently placed on a bed, the medical term hu
Alpha Damon,Watching my Luna give birth to my son, something within me snapped as I had suddenly woken up from a nightmare in which I mistreated Selene for another woman - Tessa.What is happening to me? I looked down at Selene, and she was huffing and puffing with a red face while the doctors instructed her to push out my son.Oh, my goddess… are we having the baby now? My heart began racing wildly, I took quick silent breaths in and out while I watched the medical staff cheer on my Luna to push.But how did we get here so soon? I looked at Selene's red face and flashes of my memories came back to me like a raging storm.***The flashback ***For months after I was reunited with my parents and finding out about Selene with child, I remembered I had been under the influence of a very powerful love spell, one that bound me relentlessly to someone who didn't truly love me but wanted to destroy my family, which they did. I peeked at Selene and her gaze was soft, while she lay next to
Luna Selene,A few days later, after the birth of my beautiful son, we were still yet to name at his public naming ceremony as soon as his umbilical cord dropped, the morning sun graced the sky with its gentle rays against the car window, and I couldn't help but feel a wave of contentment wash over me. The arrival of our precious baby had brought us immeasurable joy, and the fact that my loving husband, Damon, had been behaving like a true Alpha lately while being the most supportive mate a woman could ask for, only added to this newfound happiness even though I hadn't yet fully forgiven him about the whole I want to divorce you to mate with Tessa.I sighed softly while peeking at my cute sleeping son who was safely tucked in his car seat, and I could not help but smile with contentment…This was it. The peaceful life I always wanted.Oh thank you, goddess, I sighed again and then looked forward at Damon whose focus was on the road as he drove us back home from the hospital, my heart s
Tessa.A few days prior... After Damon's surprise visit to my home, I couldn't contain my excitement as I watched the clock tick closer to midnight. He had promised that he would come to my house and spend the night with me. The anticipation built up within me like a flickering flame ready to ignite into a blazing fire. A rush of nerves and excitement coursed through my veins, keeping me wide awake in the dead of the night.What's keeping you so long my love? I paced back and forth, peeking out the window more than a hundred times to see if he was at the pouch. And he wasn't.I heaved a sigh still holding on to the hope of the Ashburn potion that was working in Damon's system.But instead, hours passed as I anxiously waited for his arrival, sleep seemed to elude me entirely. Every creak, every gust of wind outside my window, made me snap to attention, hoping it was him. My heart pounded in my chest as I held onto the promise he had made. The thought of Damon's lips on mine like earl
Alpha Damon,Waking up in the morning after a long night of soothing the baby back to sleep, my ears paid attention to voices beyond my bedroom door.I sat up and looked at the bed, Selene was not there. I frowned at where she could have gone this early."Babe, are you in the bathroom?" I called to her in a low voice thinking she was in the bathroom whose door was wide open to avoid waking up the baby, but there was no response.My frown deepened. Where could she be this early morning?The commotion outside the door got louder, I furrowed my brows wondering if she was part of it. But what was it all about this early?Getting up gently from the rocking chair, I walked to the baby's crib and placed him in there.He stretched and cooed before he went back into a deep sleep, I smiled. Content with how perfect he was.Quietly walking out, I made my way downstairs, and there, I saw Tessa roughly pushing Selene to the floor, my blood boiled with rage. The warriors immediately reprimanded h
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
