Delaury's POV “ Enough!” Alpha Ethan yelled out and Gillian kept his mouth shut. So this was Kira's abusive mate. He shut up and kept his glare on me instead. “ Do we have any other issues to discuss? “ Alpha Ethan asked, clearly bored of the meeting. “ No Alpha” they all chorused and he nodded.“ Think about what I said , Tristan, “ he said and walked out. “I will do so at my own pace! “ Tristan muttered and Ethan walked out. “ This has been a very short but interesting meeting,” Draven said, and smiled at me. Gillian was still seated and glaring at me, for reasons known to only him. Draven must have realized my annoyance .“ Don't mind him, he'd definitely get it from Tristan before he leaves “ He said and I nodded. “ Should we leave?” Tristan asked, “ Yes, we're done here aren't we” I replied, these wolf meetings weren't for me at all. “ Tristan,such a nice pleasure meeting you once more, how have you been? “ a Luna appeared from behind. “Lina, I've been okay ,how about
Orion’s POV “ What the hell are you doing Angela!?” I yelled out, watching her as my eyes fully opened, wide awake. “ Pleasing you, Orion,” she whispered seductively, her hands rubbing up and down my length. The sensation of something wet had woken me up. “ When did you start learning this, Angela” I stated, pulling up my shorts back in position. “ I need you, Orion,” she said, her eyes filled with unshed tears. It was wrong to have sex before mating, especially with someone who would be your mate, so Angela and I never did it. It was quite surprising to see her in heat. Due to some reasons, my increased libido came earlier than hers and as the Alpha to be, I was permitted to have my way with any of the omegas branded as whores. “ Don't act like you haven't done this before, Orion; take it like I'm one of those girls,” she said, her hands roaming around my chest. “ Angela, this is wrong!” I said, getting up from the bed. Surprisingly, it wasn't hard for her, with all the effort
Delaury's POV Tristan lay beside me calmly as I woke up. He had obviously fallen asleep after I'd also done so. After my screams, we went to a completely different section of the ocean to lie down and I'd fallen asleep right after. “ Tristan” No response, I got up to walk around. This part of the ocean was quite a no go area when I recall coming here. I didn't know why but it seemed pretty deserted. No animals passed her ,neither were the waves as calm as the other. Tristan was still sleeping when I came back from the short walk. “ Where did you go? “ He asked, sitting up to look at me. His sleep marks drawing tiny circles beneath his eyes. “ I just went for a walk” “ Why didn't you wake me up” “ I did, you didn't respond, you seemed to be in your own sleep world” “ That's right” he chuckled, pulling me down to sit in front of me. I leaned into him as we watched the waves in silence. “ What really happened?”“ Well, you were screaming, I had to calm you down ,one way or the
Delaury's POV Azrael growled in annoyance and I watched as Gillian's wolf cowered in fear. Almost as if Gillian was retreating. I had to do something but I couldn't. Gillian lunged forward, attempting to bite on Azrael’s neck fur. He wasn't as big as Azrael so he ended up on the floor. Azrael lunged on him instead , throwing him off on the floor. Gillian’s wolf howled in pain but Azrael was not having it, he lunged on his opponent again, drawing blood from him, his paws soaked. “ Azrael!” I yelled out, if Gillian dudes, Tristan would be in trouble. “ He's down, leave him and let's go “ he seemed to stop for a minute then using his fangs , bit into his neck , throwing down to the shore. He wasn't dead , but he was weak. “ Let's go” Azreal turned to me, his dark eyes flaring at me. He shifted before he got to me and I shut my eyes before I got blinded again. “ Werewolves really need a petition to be able to transform back into their old attire after shifting into a wolf, do we
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
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 “ 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 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 Jules finally deemed me fit to walk today. I'd been in bed all the week, with only short movements from the bathroom and back. “ I'm guessing she can do anything now,” Tristan asked him, his hands squeezing mine. “ Not anything,” Jules replied. He knew what Tristan was asking about. “ That's not fun, don't I get to take something from you after taking care of you” “ There are other ways I can replace it” He shook his head silently and we waited in silence till Jules left. “Today the oracle would speak to me,” Tristan said as soon as the door closed behind us. “ It's been glowing so much lately,I guess it has special information. “ Okay” “ I'm hoping it's about when we're mating” I sighed quietly, mating with Tristan might have been high a few weeks ago but now, the idea was not so thrilling. “ You're not saying anything brownie, are you fine? “ “ Yes, I am ,thank you” “ For what? You're not following,I'm talking about the mating ceremony “ “
Orion’s POV“ I need to –” “ No, Orion, it's not time to confront your father yet,leave him alone ! He chose my friend and that was all” “ But he hurt you” “ You wouldn't be born if he has chosen me “ “ But–” “ No buts, I'm not telling you this because I want to, you asked. Besides there's a lesson there for you to learn “ “ Fine, but do you promise we'll revisit this matter? “ “ Of course Just not now Orion, focus on what's needed” she said and picked her stick to leave. “ Remember,time is ticking “ I say there for while before getting up to leave. A million thoughts ran through my head with none being straight to the point. “ I've been searching for you , Your Dad seems to be in a furious mood” Fidele said.“ Don't worry about him, tell the Omegas they may take a day off “ I said. I didn't know why but the urge to make sure that the omegas were involved in most of the pack activities has been consuming me all day. “ Where have you been Orion? “ Angela asked, pouting. “ Ar
Orion's Pov For the first time ever, I was wondering what would have happen if the moon goddess had just mated Angela and I together. Delaury wouldn't be banished but she'd still be an outcast, old Tasha would never have spoken up and I wouldn't be here watching her in awe as she braided a strand of her long white hair. “ My mom? You knew my mom? “ She nodded absentmindedly. “ I'm not a child Orion and I'm not too old to remember people, Angelina and I were friends” she said. Dad only told me she'd been killed by a rival pack, actually he kept changing how she was killed. “ Friends as in age mates? “ “ Yes, my hair is white because it's hereditary, a family inheritance that I chose to keep, I use a stick to walk because I broke my waist years ago, and i don't talk to anyone because I choose not to, I'm too overwhelmed by Angelina's death” “ What happened?” I never saw a picture of her around, Dad threw them all out, saying he didn't want me to be hurt all the time though I yea
Orion's Pov “ You carried a pack baby for months and decided to name her Delaury? after a cursed soul? “ Giselle scowled behind Sylvia and Sebastian. We were having a ceremony for the birth and thought they preferred a quiet one with no other disturbance. I'd convinced them to go ahead with the pack’s normal routine, inviting the older wolves for the ceremony. Giselle, an old grumpy woman, was pissing me off more than the couples standing in front of me. “ So , we welcome this beautiful baby to the Eziele pack, may she grow to explore certain parts and prove all odds wrong” I said, staring pointedly at the women who cast furtive glances at me. “ Orion” Giselle called out .“ Giselle? “ “ Why aren't you bothered by their choice of name ?” “ Delaury is a name , Giselle, it's the name of this baby and several other female wolves across the wolf's age, one cursed person doesn't affect them all” I retorted. Though Israel grunted when I said ‘cursed’. “ It's the Eziele pack we're tal
Delaury's POV “ It's so smooth ,yet it feels unreal” Krystal ran her hands down the mark in awe. I was lying on the bed now, on my stomach as she examined the mark. I know she had mind- linked Tristan, so definitely he was coming. “ And you haven't seen this before?”As much as I wanted to say the truth to her, instincts told me to shut up. “ No, “I used to draw them in a book when I was in the Eziele pack, I drew them out so I could remember each and every design my family had on their back. I even drew mine out, just like Dad’s . Yet mine came out worse.“ Krystal what's wrong? “ Tristan burst in and the familiar grape scent filled my nose, Jules was with him obviously and he didn't seem too convincing enough to know what was behind me.“ When did you find out about this? “ Tristan asked, passing his hands over the mark. “ Just today, she wanted to know how much of a scar she has now so she walked to the mirror to check and that's where we saw it” “ Have you seen someone with
Delaury's POV Five days. Five days of being indoors and my mid section wrapped with bandages . My breasts were pushing against the bandages, begging to be freed. I wonder why Jules found it right to bandage my breast too. How exactly did the lightning strike? The blood has stopped now and currently I was able to prop up on the end without hissing. “ Water? “ Krystal asked as she lay beside me on the bed. Tristan wanted to bring in another maid but she had refused, saying she was just pregnant and not disabled. She used to come see me and then go back to her room after seeing to my needs, but after my weird episodes of nightmares,she'd decided to sleep with me instead. “ Yes, can I get grapes too? “ I pleaded. She gave me a warm smile and got up to leave. Tyron came in after she left. “ Hi, Krystal told me you're awake, come to check on you” he said. “ Thank you so much, I appreciate this” “ I'm sorry Delaury, I really wanted to stop him, I don't know what's wrong with him these
Orion’s POV “ Calm down Sylvia, relax and bring it out!” Old Tasha soothed, her hands gently caressing Sylvia's stomach as she panted. Just when she had decided to talk, Sebastian had rushed out for help and she had rushed into their house before me. The care attendants ran back when they saw who was coordinating the child's birth. I smirked. “ We're not doing this again, Sebastian; go fuck Orion next time! “ She yelled, taking a deep breath as she pushed once more. I was as traumatized as Sebastian, who was on the verge of tears at his mate in pain. I was standing beside him whilst Old Tasha stood in front of her, waiting to receive the baby if she pushed harder. She was gentle yet firm with her. “ Calm down Sylvia, calm down, this baby is a strong one” she encouraged. That seemed to make Sylvia confident and she pushed.“ Can't male wolves give birth? “ She asked no one in particular, Old Tasha did have a mysterious smile to her face. Her first. “ Now do one last push, and
Delaury's POV Flashback: “ Mom, what's that behind you? “ I traced the nice tattoo behind her back as she swam in the ocean. “ Oh, it's something you'd get to know when you're older” “ I've seen Dad ,Dana and Delah have it but I don't “ “ Like I said hunny, you'd know when you're older, it's a powerful symbol for our family “ she explains, splashing water on my brown hair to get it wet. “ How will I get it Ma? “ “ Dad and I got it during our confession night, you know it was a forbidden night for us, that's why it's large, Dana and Delah got it during their first shift to a wolf “ “ So theirs isn't forbidden? “ She shook her head. “ When it's forbidden, it depicts the kind of wolf you'll become “ “ Which wolf? ““ A very strong one baby, don't worry young head, let's play with the water” I agreed, what was there to think of anyway? end of Flashback ★★★The lights blinded my already dark vision and I squinted even in my sleep. The pain at my back was so severe that I coul
Delaury's POV “ We can't confess anything under this Tristan” I yelled, trying to pry my hands away from Tristan. The cheerfu Alpha was gone, in place was a ruthless one. The one I actually heard about before arriving here. “ A blood moon is a blood moon brownie” he said, pushing me to stand beside him in front of the bonfire. Tyron stood from afar, watching us.“ This blood moon is wrong don't you get it? “ I hissed. He ignored me. Anger evident on his face as he turned to find a stone to light the bon fire. I turned to Tyron who seemed to hesitate stepping in or leaving me. “ Go home Tyron, your mate is waiting” Tristan ordered. He gave me one last apologetic look before leaving. I watched Tristan try to light the fire and after a few minutes the fire was ready. He laughed. “ Come closer brownie, don't delay us” he said, stretching out his arms to take me. Intrusive thoughts urged me to push him but then the pack would be without an alpha and all the speculations about my m
