2024-10-29 19:42:56Alice's POV -
A shivering Meg arrived in my suit with a rather stern-looking Savannah. I had requested Lucian to let me interrogate her alone. He would just frighten her more. Hence, he had left to attend to his business."How are you feeling now?" I asked, smiling pleasantly."She tried to kill herself," Savannah said, irritated."Is it's true, Meg?" I asked.She was tearful, "Madam Luna, I am ashamed of what I did, I don't deserve to stay alive anymore. My family has disowned me. I have nothing worth living for." She cried."Your punishment is for me to decide, take this as your trial." I turned towards Savannah," thanks for your help. I would like to speak with her in private."Savannah looked a bit startled."Are you certain? She tried to kill you. It is not advisable to be alone with her. She might try to harm you again."I rolled my eyes."I am capable of protecting myself from an injured Omega, so you don't need

Alice's POV - I watched in amusement, as Katherine and the new fellow familiarized with each other, sniffing, and touching. Katherine had waited a long time for her mate, and it was worth it.The entire pack was distracted by their bonding, and even a few survivor women were smiling."Well, that's quite interesting." I laughed."Not as interesting as our first meeting," Lucian quipped.And I blushed at the memory of myself running away from him."Alpha, please, can he stay with me?" Katherine begged."Sure, Katherine, he is your mate," Lucian replied smiling.I looked at the wide-eyed little girl hiding behind Dallas."Hello dear, what is your name?" I asked her.She yelped and hid fearfully behind his legs."It's ok, sweetheart, we will be safe here. You just got yourself a new aunt." Dallas said, picking her up in his arms."I am Alice, Luna of the Crimson Shadow pack. You are all welcome to stay here. I am sorry
His reluctant Luna Chapter 52 - The impending danger
"Regina was alive but left powerless by your mother," Aunt Flora said after I explained everything to her.I had managed to convince Lucian to let me visit the Jade moon pack. Aunt Flora was fickle, it was difficult to have a conversation with her on the phone.Lucian finally relented, though he would not let me go out of his sight; hence he tagged along. Leaving Damon as in charge, we left with Savannah and a few other betas.Lucian had to discuss the rogues and the witch issue with Rick. So, the trip to the Jade moon turned out to be favourable. I found aunt Flora in the nursery, babysitting Clara and Johnathan, Rick's twins. The kids were busy, playing with the building blocks."I am sorry I don't understand, aunty.""Your mother was a true born, which, Regina wasn't. There are two kinds of witches, one who is born with some magical ability, like mind reading, conjuring, ability to talk to spirits. Others do not have any special abilities, but they can create
His reluctant Luna Chapter 53 - Catching the rogues
Lucian got a call from Daniel, Alpha of the red pack, early one morning. They had a rogue attack. The rogues had advanced weapons which had hit some of their highest ranking Betas. Bullets don't work on werewolves unless they were silver. Such bullets were expensive and hard to obtain. The rogues used normal bullets laced with poison.The wolves suffered hours of agony as the poison spread in their bloodstream. They were able to control its spread, but it could be deadly if given in significant quantity."Could it be the same poison which was used on your mom ?" I asked Lucian, stunned.I didn't realize how much Regina could have been helping them. It was hard to process."It's possible, though we'll have to test those poisons and prepare an antidote if possible," Lucian told me.I paced inside our bedroom, while Lucian sat on the bed staring out over the forest."Aunt Flora, she can help, ask Daniel to send us the blood samples and any stray bullets," I asked Luci
His reluctant Luna Chapter 54 - Encounter
Lucian's POV - "Follow the rogues when they reach the back alley," I commanded into the radio and then waited.I heard Rick reply with affirmative. We were near a seedy club. It was frequented by some rogues. I had not brought any of my betas with me. Neither did Rick. Daniel had his reinforcements waiting, a few streets away. We were here to just observe.I had a feeling that the rogues were getting tipped off by some mole. It could have been anyone from any of the packs. I did not rule out the involvement of some Alphas too. Hence, to keep things discreet, we decided to keep it an Alpha only operation. So, here I was with Rick and Daniel waiting."They are out," Daniel whispered.We waited in the van and watched the rogue head off, a few minutes later. We had masked our scents.Rick made his way out of the club, following our man.We continued to follow him. He went to a junkyard a couple of blocks away.We parked the v

Alice - "And then they lived happily ever after....."I closed the book and smiled at a very sleepy Namara. I had volunteered to babysit her and give some spare time to Katherine and Dallas. They had become something of adoptive parents for Namara. She was a sweet girl. Despite the tragedy, she had retained her spunk. Spending time with her was delightful. I laid her sleeping form on the bed and tiptoed out of her room. Lucian was away because of this rogue business, and no one knew where he was, or when he would be returning.I laid down on my bed, contemplating calling him. He had closed off our mind link, I couldn't sense him.I had dozed off when I was woken up by a low pain in my chest. I woke up sweating, something was wrong, Lana was howling, and I felt this weird emptiness in my heart."Lucian!" I said aloud to the empty room, he was not well, I could sense it. I was unable to reach him through the mind link. Restless, I w
His reluctant Luna Chapter 56 - Recovery
Lucian was all right, and that's all that mattered. I flung my arms around him."I thought you would leave me," I said softly through my tears. "It would have killed me.""No, I wasn't leaving you, Alice. I swear. I went there to protect you. Why would I leave you? I was in and out of consciousness. But I heard you. I heard everything you said." He caressed my hair."Promise me you will never go on such unplanned missions, and you will never shut me off, I want to be connected with you all the time," I said."I promise," he said, tucking a strand of my hair behind my ear."Now, do I get my kiss? " He grinned."No, I am still mad at you!" I retorted.We sat quietly together, while Lucian was being examined by the healers. Once his wolf connected with him. His healing was accelerated, those ugly bruises and scratches disappeared like magic.The pack was already aware of his recovery, and slowly they were arriving to see him.The first ones were his betas and
His reluctant Luna Chapter 57 - Celebration
Impromptu pack parties are the easiest to organize. All we need is good weather, preferably a full moon night. Some drinks and firewood. The prey is hunted and cooked right there. There is no need to dress up in something special. Heck, there is no need to dress up at all, it gets ripped off later anyway. The party can go as wild as a pack orgy, or just remain a family barbecue. It was totally up to the people participating in it. The pack run and the hunt are almost always included.I met a very exasperated Katherine, in the corridor while the pack members were rushing out to the grounds at about 8 in the evening."Alice, I can't deal with those new girls, they are refusing to leave for the party." She huffed."Why?"Some girls from Adam's pack had chosen to stay as their families wouldn't accept them, even though Rick was fine to take them in. We didn't force them to go back. If they felt comfortable here, they were most welcome to stay."They are saying they
His reluctant Luna Chapter 58 - The mating barbecue
I wasn't jealous of Savannah, I just wanted her to not remain lonely. Though I am no one to judge, perhaps she was perfectly happy in her current lifestyle, like I was before meeting Lucian. However, getting a mate might change her perspective, as it did for me."Alright Ladies, we will be staying at Jade moon pack for two days and meet the unmated wolves from the other packs. By Luna's blessing, you all will find your mates. Even if you fail to find your mates, don't be disheartened. Just enjoy yourself."I addressed the crowd of about 50 single girls and women who would be going to the Jade moon pack for the mating barbecue, dance, and picnic. The unmated wolves from about 10 different packs were going to assemble in my brother's territory. It would be a big hassle accommodating and organizing everything for such a giant party. I was glad I wasn't the one organizing it. They giggled and laughed about finding their mates, and I smiled at them."And you have not

Six years later - Alice ********************** Emma and I were sitting outside in the garden watching our little ones tussle. We often visited each other. "How you keep up with the three of them, I'll never know. I'm having a hard enough time with Arya." She said. "It's difficult sometimes, but it's also fun," I said looking at my 6-year-old Aiden and 2 -year-old twins. Rose and Leo. It was a pleasant surprise when I discovered I was carrying twins, few years after we had Aiden. The kids looked up at us and yelped, they were cute little pups. Both Aiden and Rose had inherited Lucian's green eyes and dark hair. Leo was more like me with his hazel eyes and brown hair. Arya had caught Aiden by the ear while Rose and Leo tussled in the mud. "Aiden, sweetie, Mama's not going to come to your rescue every time the girls pick on you." I laughed. "I can't believe he lets her get away with that. He outweighs her by quite a bit." Emma said. "He is a little gentleman, he just plays along"
His reluctant Luna Chapter 44 - Good end of things
AliceAs I walked towards the circle to join the pack, our guests, and friends. I couldn't help admiring the decor, the fairy lights and the most tempting smell of roasted meat. Katherine had outdone herself. The entire circle had been decorated with twinkle lights and colourful roses. There was soft music being played by a live band. It sounded old and enchanting. The guests were all smiling and joking. Lucian joined me soon, and I found myself in his arms. He smiled at me intensely, then kissed me. His tongue ran over my lips and I opened her mouth to let him taste her. My hands danced his shirt buttons, I wished I were back in our room."I wish the same, dear," he said, giving a sly smile."Maybe later," I winked at him."Mate!" A shout broke the magic, and we looked at the commotion.Eliza was clinging to Max, who looked dazed."I found my mate, hi, I am Eliza and I like you." She flushed while talking to Max."You like me? But you are so beautiful, you are way out of my league."

AliceI knew about Doppler monitors, which are used to hear the fetal heartbeat. The idea both thrilled and terrified me."Just lie back," Dr Armand said, lifting my gown to reveal my bare belly. He squirted some liquid on my skin. "Just a bit of gel. It'll help pick up the sound."A crackling sound like an old transistor radio broke out in the room. Lucian looked at me, bewildered."We'll hear the baby's heartbeat?" I asked.The doctor nodded, moving the instrument over my stomach."The heart forms and starts beating from a very early stage."More static came from the small speaker the doctor held in his hand. A rapid, watery sound rang out, like waves at the beach on fast-forward.Whoosh whoosh whoosh.A smile spread across Dr Armand's face. "There's your baby."I held my breath. Whoosh whoosh whoosh.Lucian's face was like a mask. I had never seen him so shocked and happy, both at the same time. The miracle of the moment began to sink in. We had created a life. The baby we had creat

Alice *************'Alice, I love you, babe. Now listen carefully. When I say run, just run !' Lucian spoke in my mind.'But Max...''We'll save him too, don't worry. They don't know we are here as the wind is in another direction, but they will soon know. So just do as I say, babe, please.''I will dear.' I replied.Jordan gave me a suspicious look, I ignored him and kept my head down. I wasn't certain if I could shift, pregnant wolves can't. But my wolf assured me that she could take over anytime.'Run' Lucian said in my mind. My wolf took over. Breaking the restraints, I ran into the forest. The sound of gunshots rang through the forest. I looked up to see Lucian's choppers hovering over the trees. They were shooting at Stuart and his men. I stopped running, Max could get caught in the crossfire. I returned towards the group I had just escaped.**********************Lucian -I felt Alice's pain run through me, the rest of the pack felt the same. I immediately turned and started

Olivia -I woke up screaming from the nightmare I just had."Olivia! Are you alright?" Zaiden was holding my shaking body."I saw her...... I saw Madam Luna, she was in a cave, not a lab. Take me to the Alpha, please." I pleaded. The vision was so vivid. It was almost like I was there."Sure, get dressed." He threw me a pair of a tracksuit.It was late night or early morning. Whatever one might refer to 3 am when we reached the Alpha's office. The hustle and bustle of betas and the trackers ascertained the fact that nobody had slept for hours. Alpha was trying everything possible to trace Alice. The row of SUVs in the driveway ensured that they were either going or returning from a raid."I must talk to the Alpha now! " I pleaded to the guard standing at the door."Alpha is busy in a meeting, you can't see him now." He replied gruffly."I must see him, I had a vision. I saw Madam Luna."Before the guard could react. The door burst open."You had a vision of Alice? What did you see?" A

I tried to keep my eyes open, as Stuart droned on and on about his scientific advancements. I had lost track of what he had been rambling long back, but just nodded and smiled at certain intervals to look interested.'Come on, Lucian,' I said into the void."So, these human women failed to get pregnant, it's not because my experiment failed. They were just weak. Weak and useless. Even my army of men was not the breakthrough I had been hoping for. So, I started seeking alternatives. The best approach was to go natural. Create my hybrid children. " He crossed his legs and folded his hands, placing his chin on his knuckles."So, that's why you attacked the mated Alpha females?""Yeah, lost quite a few of my men. I don't care about them, though. They were lab rats.....totally disposable." He shrugged."And I am your next big experiment?" I was feeling squeamish."You are special, Alice." I winced, my name rolling off his tongue made me sick."I am sorry, I need to use the bathroom." I su

Lucian 'This is crazy! I should have never listened to her.' I chided myself, but it was of no use. She was gone. "Alpha, we lost the chopper," Damon said somberly. I could feel my nails digging into my palms, I was gripping my hands so tightly. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath. "Do whatever you can. Follow all the clues and find her." I managed to mutter. "Alpha, we have a request." I raised my head to find Kyle and the guards bowing their heads in submission. My wolf growled. He wanted to rip their heads off, for failing to protect my mate. "What is it?" I asked impatiently. "We....we....don't deserve to live. Please forfeit our lives." Kyle fumbled.I wanted to do that, but these were some of the best betas and warriors. Killing them now would achieve nothing."I don't have time for dramatics. Get out!""Alpha..." They whimpered."GET OUT! " I yelled, that sent them running out of my office.My wolf went into a rage and destroyed the table in seconds. I then went

Olivia I was heading for the trees before I realized what was happening. 'No, turn back,' I thought to myself, and then realized I wasn't in charge. The wolf was in charge.My wolf was showing herself. I could feel her stretching out as I ran. Trees sped by me in a blur, and I sucked in a lung-full of fresh air. I felt powerful.The rational human part of me still panicked and tried to get through to the wolf. I ran for miles, trying to check out my territory.I looked down at my feet, and they were still human, with a small spattering of white wolf fur. I had claws on my hands, but they still looked mostly human. It struck me that I was partially shifted into the hybrid wolf woman. And it felt great. I couldn't wait to turn fully.'Olivia,' Zaiden's voice boomed in my head. My mate was close on my heels, and suddenly, I was overwhelmed by an intense desire. He was supposed to claim me. Why was he late?Without further delay, my face started to change, and a snout started to grow. It

Alice -"How long is she going to be out?" Zaiden asked anxiously.We had all settled down to eat when he had appeared carrying Olivia. She seemed to be sleeping blissfully, a contented smile adorned her face."She is changing. She will wake up in a few days. How long did rain sleep when you had turned her ?" I asked Damon."A week," he sighed. "Though later I came to know she had woken up hours ago, but she was just enjoying the attention, hence pretended to be asleep."I stifled a laugh while Rain gave him a look."What was I supposed to do, you bit me so hard !" She retorted.I shook my head at their banter."She will wake up in about 24 hours. Might be quicker, as she is genetically tampered already." Lucian said while checking on Olivia."Too bad she'll miss the celebrations," Rain said sympathetically."Is she ok? Did I bite too hard? She will wake up, right?" Zaiden asked anxiously."Don't worry, you did well. You can return to the packhouse if you wish. Keep her comfortable. I
