Chapter 59 - Betrayal and danger
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56I woke up lying on a hard floor. I heard water dripping from somewhere, the air smelled damp, and my head throbbed badly. I tried to get up, but the sharp pain made my head swim and I fell back on the floor. Surprisingly, I wasn't tied up. I looked around but couldn't see much of anything, so I mustered up the courage to slowly stand up. Chains jingled in my feet as I moved them. My short-lived happiness of being untied died immediately, I was chained. My eyes had adjusted to the darkness, and I concluded I was in a cave.
'Lucian' I called into the mental link.No response.I was either too far away from him or he had closed the mental link, which was impossible. It meant I was too far away from him. I pulled at the chains, it didn't budge as expected. I wrapped my arms around myself. It was a trap. It was all a trap. Regina didn't die that day. Now, she had me and Clara. I heard approaching footsteps, and instinctively knew who they belonged to."Savannah," I said

Alice's POV - "That's ridiculous!" I snapped at him. These two were being conned by Regina, they were blinded by their ambitions to see through it."How can you even trust this woman? She might be taking you both for a ride!""It is possible, isn't it?" He asked gruffly to Regina.She trembled a little, "of course! You saw my poison worked isn't it?""It better do. I am paying a lot for this bitch!"While they argued, I had figured out their whole plan. Regina wanted my blood for whatever spells she had been making, Savannah wanted to get rid of me to get my mate, and this Alpha wolf wanted me for his mate because of my healing power.They got together and planned the trap, Regina started by luring rogue wolves from different packs to do her bidding. Then got interested in Alphas who wanted to steal me as their mate as her financiers. After losing Adam, this was her second financier."Hey if you are done argui

Gregory and some of his wolves were moving around arranging stones and boxes while Regina was boiling something nasty in a cauldron, like a typical witch. Fire torches had been lit around, giving an orange glow to everything. Providing me with a good view of the number of wolves stationed around the cave. There were 10 Betas and warriors around us. I was sure there would be more in the forest. I couldn't fight through so many wolves. I would have to make a run somehow."Are you going to sacrifice me or something?" I asked casually."You are too expensive to be sacrificed, sweetheart," Gregory smirked."She would not be harmed, right? She can still give me pups, isn't it?" He asked Regina.I wanted to gag and rip his throat off."No, I just need her blood for now," Regina said.I wrinkled my nose, these people were crazy."Give me the girl," Savannah asked me.I clutched Clara tighter."No, I don't trust you," I said"You don't have any option Alice, if
His reluctant Luna Chapter 62 - Were war
10 years ago -Lucian - Being one of the few werewolves in a human high school had its advantages. I was stronger, with much better reflexes and keener senses than humans. I could have broken all sports records, but I refrained from using my full potential because it would have been unfair, secondly, I would have drawn unwanted attention, but that didn't stop me from being the best in the football team. Furthermore, I loved it.It was the day before my 18th birthday. I was excited as well as nervous. For a werewolf, his or her 18th year is critical. After turning 18 our wolf is ready for its mate, and it starts searching. I would be able to find my soul mate from tomorrow onwards. She could be anyone. Someone from the pack, or school. I wished it was Nancy, my current girlfriend. She was the hottest girl in the school, and we clicked. If not Nancy, whoever would be my mate, I would love her. Whenever I found her."Hi

Alice -I had reached a clearing near a stream. 'Savannah, come out. I know you are here. The forest is surrounded, you cannot leave.' I said in her mind as I felt her presence.Before I could finish, I was shoved by a red female. Savannah had appeared from the rocks near the stream. I was tossed onto my side before I quickly righted myself and faced the known attacker. Savannah bared her teeth and growled low and deep. I returned the threat and watched as Savannah trembled and backed down a little.I looked behind her to see Lucian along with the rest of the pack. He stayed back and waited to see what would happen.'You must hold a pretty big grudge against me to attack me in front of Lucian.' I said.'I have nothing left to lose.' Savannah replied.'I was happy until you showed up! This is all your fault! W

Six months later --Alice - Sunlight was streaming through the picture window on the east wall, warming the bed. I walked out of the shower and saw Lucian stirring in the bed."Sorry," I said softly. "I didn't mean to wake you."The bedsheet fell away from his body as he leaned to kiss me."What time is it?" He asked."A little past six," I replied, and got out of the bed. I walked towards the window and glanced out in the morning."Why don't you come back to bed?" He asked."No, I was just going to take a shower and head into work," I responded."It's so early," he said through a yawn."I know, but I've got an important meeting today. I'm going to take a shower. Go back to sleep." I said."You sure you can't come back to bed?" He asked again as I applied lipstick and flashed

Alice - "What am I looking at?" He asked, staring at the 2D model of his house. His parent's house."It's your old home, I have remodelled it. See, I have added these extensions here, your mother can have her private balcony. This tiny room can be added to its adjacent one. It would make an excellent nursery..." I rattled on about the changes, and his smile grew."It's lovely, but why do you want to remodel the house?""So that we can move in. It's lovely the way it is, but I thought of suggesting some improvements.""You want to move to my home?" He whispered, and I wasn't confident if he liked my idea."Yes, our current living arrangement is not very family-friendly, and I need a bigger closet," I replied.He swivelled my chair towards him and trapped me with both his hands. "Wait, did you say, family? And nursery?" He gave a mischievous smile.I turned red, of all the things, this is what he had hooked on."I mean eventually we will have a family someday," I fumbled for words. "A
His reluctant Luna Chapter 1 - Bliss
Alice - Being a Luna was never part of my plan but it was my destiny and now I was loving it. I am Alice Anderson a hybrid wolf with a werewolf father and a mother who was a witch. That makes me special. Not always in a good way. After going through several trials and tribulations I was finally at ease with Lucian. I am Luna of the Crimson Shadow pack and Lucian Blake is my mate.Generally, life was good. I loved living in the pack and there weren't any more death threats.“Please put the couch here,” I instructed the betas and omegas who were hauling the furniture into our newly renovated home.I designed the interiors myself. It had been a tedious and tiring process especially when Lucian was barely interested. He had given me the free rein to do whatever I wanted, with the house. It was a good thing, but I was expecting him to be a bit more excited about the whole project. He had been busy, handling the pack and business issues, leaving me to my house reconstruction activity.“Tha
His reluctant Luna Chapter 2 - Housewarming
The weather was fine, although the sky was cloudy. The worst of winter had passed, and the wonderful spring was arriving. Birds from the south had returned and sang their beautiful symphony. The wicked snow was gone, replaced by a vast carpet of grass. Flowers of many kinds had blossomed and filled the air with their fragrance. This was the best time of the year to have a housewarming. It was an intimate party with Rick and Lenora's family. We had also invited Emma, Damon, the pack Betas and some close friends. Aunt Flora was away on one of her impromptu trips. We already had a pack run and the barbecue party with the whole pack the previous evening. Kids played in the garden while I relaxed with Emma and other ladies on the patio overlooking the river. I gazed at Emma and other girls fussing over their babies and older kids. Even Katherine had Namara to look after. I knew what I had to do. Have Lucian's babies. I picked up my piña colada and smiled absentmindedly. "Are you even lis

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
His reluctant Luna Chapter 41 - Escape
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
