Delaury's POV“ Stay back Delaury,” Tyron warned as he prepared to shift and attack the wolf. Its fangs were as long as any Wolf's I've seen and the color was as rare as it came. It was neither black nor grey or Ash. It looked brown with a tint of redness around. I watched Tyron shift as I stood behind him, his tail wagging to alert me to move back. I didn't. I was rooted to the spot ,some form of connection pulling towards the strange wolf . Tyron lunged first but he could reach the wolf, he stopped and fell down,his wolf writhing in pain. The wolf didn't spare him a glance. It was looking at me. I was the one it came for even though I didn't know who it was. It jumped past Tyron as I moved back and it walked towards me. “ Who are you? “ I yelled. Tyron's wolf was up now, growling at the angry rare wolf walking to me. It turned when Tyron bit into its neck and soon Tyron had been thrown far away from us. Normally Tyron was a strong wolf, whatever this wolf had was something dif
Delaury's POV “ Would you stop standing like a lost lamb? Get to work you lazy being “ the superior ordered me ,as I scrubbed the mansion floors with tiredness. “ You better hurry up you lazy being, Come fetch water for me when you're done “ the Delta’s wife ordered from behind as I exhaled in tiredness. I'd been working for two days straight with only three hours rest at night. The Eziele pack was planning for the return of the Alpha’s son. To test his strength to protect the pack, General Eziele, our Alpha, had ordered he go to war with one of our neighbouring rival packs and Orion had proved victorious. In a few weeks time Orion would be crowned the Alpha of the pack and everyone was preparing for the large ceremony. “ Oh my goodness , I can't believe so soon we would be having the mating ceremony, oh aren't you happy laury “ Sylvia danced behind me humming a goddess tune. I shrugged, continuing with my work like I didn't know what the mating ceremony was. They probably
Delaury's POV The pack grounds bustled with joy , finally Orion and his troupe would return today and the ceremony would begin. The moon was already shaping into its crescent form, depicting the start of a mate finding night. Still believing I was cursed by the moon goddess, I smiled at the moon , sending a slight prayer to the moon goddess to at least allow my mate spare me a glance if she truly gave me one. Picking up my mother's favorite dress and plucking a few borrowed flowers in my hair, I smiled at the broken mirror. The superiors surprisingly gave me an off day today and I was asked to be at the ceremonial grounds early today to prepare the area. Done with my work, I had rushed back to dress up. “ We're running late, Laury, you know the omegas are supposed to wait on for our leaders at the playground.” Sylvia called out from outside, reminding me of the kind of world I lived in” “ I'm coming!” Straightening the dress and checking to see if I was looking okay, I went out
Delaury's POV The news about the sudden mating had obviously spread to the others who had gone to mate up and the pack grounds were full in no time..The shock coupled with my discomfort at the site of Orion glaring at me in disgust caused my wolf to whimper back into its shell. “ No ,no ,no that can't be Orion is my mate ,not this cursed rat “ Angela screeches from behind and rushes to pull Orion back.Orion's wolf prevents him from moving as he tries to allow Angela to hold him back. His eyes flicker from his wolf's to his and I'm rooted to the spot glaring at him. “ That can't be! Whatever this is , it's a glitch!” A Delta calls out from behind causing General Eziele to glare at me in anguish. I didn't cause this, heck I didn't even know why the hell I would be mated to Orion, I had no Luna abilities. My wolf's silent whimper at Orion's gasp causes me to stagger behind as Angela comes between us. “ I am your mate ! Orion whatever this is tell your wolf to go back and we woul
Delaury's POV “ Wake up Laury , please wake up” a hand shook me frantically bringing me into reality. Sylvia and Sebastian stood above me in what seemed to be like Sylvia's room. “ She's awake now Sylv, get her some water” Sebastian ordered, helping me sit up. Snatching my hands from his , I pushed to sit farther from him. He was Orion's beta, all were against me. Being Sylvia’s mate and obliged to be attached to each other was the only reason he was here with us. “ I won't hurt you Laury” he convinced as we both waited for Sylvia to arrive. She brought a cup of water and handed it to me. I engulfed everything within a few seconds and handed it over to her. “ What happened?” “ You fainted, they thought your wolf was turning into a rogue at the rejection but I managed to convince them to allow Sylvia bring you here “ Sebastian replied. “ What's happening out there then ?” “A mating ceremony is being organized for Orion and Angela, he declared acceptance of her as his mate,they m
Delaury's POV “ That can't happen,General! Delaury has done no wrong to this pack !” I heard Sylvia scream. The impact from Orion's throw was still building up in broken ribs , as I struggled to get up. “ Shut her up before I do !” Orion scowled at Sebastian who ,unlike his earlier masculinity, had become quiet, blinded by his mate bond. “Alpha, I believe something can be done about this, She has done no wrong! Her being your mate doesn't mean it's her fault, if anything the moon goddess should be questioned !” Sebastian retorted. It was quite a surprise seeing him support me. I guess being mates with my best friend brought me some benefits. “ Who are you to disobey my orders? I say what I mean and I want her out of this pack by the end of tomorrow” Orion spoke up, repeating his father's order. My broken ribs ached, my wolf ached in me . I wished I had even died with my parents on that night. Whatever has happened was my fault and I was bearing the consequences on this day
Delaury's POV I walked where the wind took me, paying attention to any sign or smell of a rogue wolf. As much as I knew I would die, not too soon. I'd just started my journey. I hadn't walked that far, I could see the Eziele pack houses from where I was. The place I had stayed all my life, tortured for my past, at least I was allowed to keep my family house. At least I had a cold hard bed to sleep in. Most importantly, I was protected by pack rights. Now, I was just a lone wolf. I would have turned into a rogue by now; being an omega had its perks, I guess. My wolf wasn't that strong to turn into a rogue, much less understand that it's been rejected. Maybe that was why I could feel her whimpering. The Wolf's age, when not in a pack, was just a vast land. When one wolf wanted to split from its pack, it picked a few members and they claimed any good land they wanted. I needed to find a good place to sleep. The journey ahead was far and I had nowhere to go. Maybe I could appear
Delaury's POV “ Kira, the Alpha wants you in his chamber, and make sure you satisfy him , we don't want him angry after! “This place was ruthless , the wolves and even the buildings. Everyone looked ragged. The wolves had placed me in a dungeon and that was where I woke up with about three girls my age. I looked a bit better than them if we were comparing faces. They looked weak and beaten to a pulp. Kira, a blonde petite girl , whimpered as the wolf, with the mark of a Delta, called out to her. I didn't know what the ‘satisfy’ meant but something tells me it isn't a good thing. The rest of the girls ignored her like a plague as kira limped out with the delta. “ Wonder what Alpha would do to her? “ One of the girls spoke up, her once red dress , a tattered mess on her body. She spoke to her mate, also no better with a green tattered dress. Was this my fate too? “ Obviously what he's been doing, we're his pack members and he treats us like rags , how much more someone from a diff

Orion’s POV “ Delta Argon, how are you doing? “ I asked, as much as I was angry, I needed to keep my cool. “ I'm fine Alpha, how about you,?” “ May I speak to your wife? “ I ignored his question and went straight to the reason why I was right in front of his house. “ She's inside, is there any prob-” “ May I see her Delta? “i repeated, this time angrier. “ Okay” he went inside to call his wife who seemed shocked to see me. “ Lady Crawford, I'd like to speak to you ALONE” I ordered. She nodded, turning to her husband who I assume was also part of what went on with Hudson.I led the way towards he pack mansion, I didn't have a particular place I wanted to talk to her but I needed to be out of earshot with her. “ May I know how and why you got to report issues of the Eziele pack to Alpha Hudson? “ I questioned, not bothering to be formal. “ It's for your own good, I needed to speed things up” “ Speed things up for the moon goddess? Or the oracle? How can we speed up a mating
Delaury's POV “ What is he talking about Tyron? “ Krystal asked, sitting up on the bed. “ Krystal–” “ Tell her exactly why I'm preventing you from being together, you idiot” Tristan yelled out. “ I guess you're fine now so I'll be taking my leave here “ Jules said, not wanting to be caught in the web. No one replied. I was the best person to do so but I was concerned about how Krystal was going to take whatever was about to be said. “ We had a fucking deal Tristan” Tyron yelled. “ You didn't go according to it and besides she left me so there's nothing to lose right? “ “ Can you guys just spill what's going on? “ I demanded. “ Look Krystal, believe me it was a mistake ,I didn't mean to –” Tyron began, “ Just go straight to the point,Tyron” “ Yeah ,go Straight to the point” Tristan said, taking a seat beside the bed. “ I slept with Tristan’s former mate one time when he wasn't around. It was wrong and I apologize about it but it was technically his fault” “ How exactly was
Tristan’s POV Two years ago, “ Alpha we're not done , the fire is yet to catch the rest of the sides” the old wolf ,Elias stated. The rogues had been bothering us for years and finally I'd mastered courage to burn up the routes that led to my pack. Just to confuse them.“ I know, I will put someone in charge for that, I really need to go” “ Is she around? “ He asked, giving me a knowing smirk. The only time I ran from meetings like this was when my beautiful mate was around. She had been wrapped around her fingers and I couldn't have it any better. “ Come on, who is the ‘she’” I teased.Ours was a sceretive bond, one she had preferred to keep it a secret until we finally mated publicly and she became my Luna. As much as I had enough intimacy with her, I wanted to show the whole pack who their beautiful Luna was. “ Take care, I'll meet you guys at the pack” I yelled. “ Calm down boy” Azrael kicked within me in excitement. She had finally sneaked from the nearby pack to mine an
Delaury's POV “ What is wrong with her Jules?” Tristan asked for the tenth time since Jules arrived and the man was as irritated as he could be. “ If only you would let me check on her, I'd know,I just came son” he retorted and Tristan retreated in silence. Jules worked in silence, working on a comatose Krystal as we all watched him.“ A little privacy would do,” he said, and we both nodded and left.“ Why would she just go off like that,” Tristan questioned. “ Maybe if you just hadn't gone off on her like like that, she wouldn't “ I stated, “ She wasn't –” “ How the hell was she supposed to know that Kira had no good intentions? Do you explain things to her” I replied. I angrily moved away from him to obviously clear my head. Tyron rushed in, distress written all over his face. “ What happened to Krystal? “ “ How did you know something has happened to her?” Tristan fired.“ Another story for another day” “ Nothing happened to her,”“ He yelled at her” I rattled and he turned
Orion’s POV The drive was silent, not because none of us couldn't speak, but because we were going to a place we didn't want to. If I was considered a mean Alpha ,then Alpha Hudson was worse. He pried into issues he wasn't supposed to pry into and didn't mind if he was over saying something. “ Seems like we're too early,” Sebastian said, feeling grumpy . “ I think we're late instead,there are other cars around” Sylvia replied and I nodded. We got down and before we got in, Sebastian said what I wanted to say. “ Please do not speak until you're spoken to, we do not want to declare war over Hudson” he said, speaking directly to Angela who only grumbled a reply. “ Orion, Sebastian, welcome , I'm guessing these are your mates? “ Alpha Hale of the hale pack greeted. A kind alpha who despite his calmness, ruled his pack with strict orders. “ Thank you, yes they are,” I replied. Angela took my hand as we walked towards the conference room. The Southern pack consisted of just a few pack
Delaury's POV “ When did the wolf's age ever have a blood moon? “ I asked Krystal. The blood moon was a myth I'd grown up hearing about and I never knew it ever happened. “ The blood moon is coming? “ Krystal asked back. I only shrugged. “ Tristan talked about it to me, I didn't think it was a thing so I just shut up “ “ It is, it has different meanings “ “ What are they? ““ Some say it signifies a curse and most people sacrifice their loved ones for power and others also believe it's a time of renewal “ “So what does it mean in our contest” “ Renewal, you're bothe rejected mates Delaury, it's required that you renew certain bonds with you Future mate so the mating ceremony would be simple” she explained. I nodded” so you and Tyron, what are you doing on that night?” “ Shushhh, Tristan might hear you, if he's in his room, he hears everything and the oracle also tells him to anticipate some things “ “ That explains the blood moon issue” I noted. We were alone, Tristan was i
Orion’s POV “ And how dare you speak to me like that? “ I yelled out, causing the young wolves to cower in fear. Alonso crouched beneath me, his eyes already watery as I fought between tearing his body apart and leaving him alone. “ Orion!” Sebastian warned. My anger was an octave each morning and the young wolves were not making it easier by asking unnecessary questions I couldn't answer. I'd trained them the whole morning with Sebastian and Alonso had stated that I was aggressive on them because I didn't have a mate. The same issue I trained them because i wanted to forget . “ Calm down , Orion” Sebastian warned, touching my shoulder. “ Time out, you're out of training for three months, if you don't meet up to the imitation to wolves ceremony,you're getting turned into an omega! “ I stated. “ Alpha I'm sorry” he pleaded.I ignored him and turned to the other wolves. “You saw what happened, you mess up ,you're following him, am I clear ?” “ Yes Alpha!” “ Good now let's c
Delaury's POV The pack was bustling with normal activities when we arrived. Tristan seemed to be lost in thought when we arrived so I let him be.“ Delauryyyyyyyyyyyy” Krystal yelled from the hallway, pouncing on me in the next second. “ Krystal!!!, you're killing me” I managed to say, through muffled speech, she was suffocating me.“ How was it? Tell me everything” she urged, snatching the bags and leading the way to my room. She placed Tristan's infront of his locked bedroom and came downstairs to mine after she was done. “ I'm here now, what happened, did you guys–?” “ Oh my moon, we did nothing Krystal” i yelled , horrified. “ Come on, I hear-” “ Let's talk about what actually happened,Krystal” I pleaded, filling her in from the meeting to the ocean and finally Gillian's attack. “ That idiot is always finding, Tristan’s trouble “ Krystal said, after i was done. “ Gillian?”“ Yes, he has some form of personal beef with Tristan” she whispered ,staring at the door to make su
