Lorcan couldn’t understand how his wolf could completely forget about Celia and be completely obsessed with Raven just because of the mate bond. Lorcan knows that the mate bond is strong. He could also feel whatever the mate bond is trying to make Caius feel.He knows exactly how the mate bond stirs up unwanted emotions in him. The mate bond is strong and powerful, capable of stirring his emotions, feel empathetic and attracted towards his mate, and even have a connection with her.However, even with how powerful it is, it’s not capable of changing a man’s heart. Yes, Raven is Lorcan’s mate and he is attracted to her because of it, but at the same time he still loves Celia the same way that he did before he had realized who his mate was. He couldn’t understand how Caius had instantly moved on from Celia as if he hadn’t also never loved her before. Back when Lorcan and Celia were dating and they had no idea who their mates were going to be, Caius had always felt a strong connection
There was silence after Luna Savina had asked Raven her question. Luna Savina has been worried sick about her and she has been waiting for her to wake up so she could find out what had really happened to her. Even the omega who were faithfully serving Luna Savina were all ears, wanting to know why Raven suddenly fell sick when she was just fine the last time that they saw her. Raven bit her lip and lowered her gaze to her fingers as she fiddled with them. It is a habit that she had formed whenever she is troubled with something. Raven doesn’t know what to tell Luna Savina. Although she could remember what exactly happened before she passed out, she doesn’t know if she should involve Luna Savina into this and tell her how her son had forced her to accept his rejection, making her nearly lose her wolf. Luna Savina is the kindest person that Raven had ever met. Even though Lorcan was her son, she never sided with him same with the Alpha. Lorcan might be their child but they will nev
Things only got worse for Raven ever since she had waken up. She thought that the pain would be over and she could finally recover in peace with the help of Luna Savina and the Pack Doctor, but things only got worse for her from then on. Every night, pain would rack Raven’s body like her flesh was being eaten by millions of ants. She would bite her tongue in pain as her body burned and no one could help her stop the immense pain that she is feeling all over her body. The pack doctor couldn’t explain what was happening to her and there was no cure that could help her numb the pain that she was feeling. They could only hope that one night it would never trouble Raven anymore just like how the pain leaves her every certain time of the night as if it never came.Raven’s pain only happens at a certain window of time of the night. Raven would wrench in pain on hours end until the pain stops and fades away on its own. The pain would come and go from her body at an exact time every night.
Raven’s recovery was doing fine. She never fell into a fever ever again and her body no longer experienced any pain anymore. She also doesn’t feel as weak as she did before and she could finally do most of the things that she used to do before. The pack doctor had also cleared her and said that as long as she eats on time, gets enough sleep and continue to drink her medicine, then they wouldn’t have to worry more about her recovery anymore. However, Luna Savina did not want to risk it. Even though the pack doctor had given her the go signal, Luna Savina still forced her to stay in her room all day and have enough rest until she fully recovers all the power that she had lost. Luna Savina is afraid to let Raven go out while her wolf is too weak that she couldn’t even shift yet. She is afraid that something bad might happen to Raven again and this time, her wolf would be too weak to even take most of the damage for her. Although Raven feels fine and she doesn’t see any problem about
Raven stood up from her seat when Celia entered their private room. Celia had no idea that it was Raven who came to meet her. She thought it was the Alpha or Luna or both. She doesn’t care who appears to meet her, as long as it was one of them. She only came here for one purpose and that is to convince them to let her and Lorcan be together. Raven’s heart twisted inside her chest when she saw Celia’s state. Celia was drenched wet, her skin and lips were sickly pale and her whole body is trembling in cold as she clutches on to the warm blanket that is wrapped around her. As Raven looks at her, she also noticed the drastic changes in her body. Celia has become thinner than the last time she saw her, signs that she hadn’t been eating well. There were also deep bags under her swollen eyes, signs that she is not getting enough sleep and that she has been crying recently. Raven immediately felt guilty as she blamed herself for what happened to her. If only she did not turned out to be
Celia looks at Raven in disdain. She couldn’t believe how worthless and weak Raven is. She couldn’t reject her mate, nor could she survive as a rogue. How can someone as weak as her be chosen by the moon goddess as their Luna?Celia scoffs and rolled her eyes at Raven. “You are just making excuses because you don’t want to give up the Luna position.Of course what should I expect from you. Anyone in your state would be reluctant to give up their power once they finally have a taste of it. Stop lying to me that you never want this. I know you enjoyed the whole thing as well.”Raven lowered her head and bit her lower lip. Enjoy? How could she enjoy this new life? Ever since she became Lorcan’s mate and was proclaimed as the future Luna of the Moonvalley Pack, everyone hated her and she was almost killed by her own mate.Why would she enjoy this new life?“Celia, if only I can do it I really will do it, but how can I do it if it will cost me my life? Celia, I do not want to die.” Raven a
Raven’s breathing turned back to normal when Lorcan averted his gaze from her to Celia. Raven thought that she would die then and there. Lorcan looked so ready to lunge at her with murderous look he had on his eyes. Thankfully, Lorcan was able to catch himself when the pack doctor rushed into the room, steeling Lorcan from his thoughts. “How is she?” Lorcan asks the pack doctor worriedly as he stares over Celia’s unconscious body. The pack doctor places his palm on top of Celia’s forehead to feel through her vitals by using the power of her wolf. Not every werewolf can be a pack doctor. There are only few werewolves gifted by the moon goddess with minimal healing powers and ability to check on someone else’s vitals. The pack doctor’s eyes widened when he sensed something wrong with Celia. He moved his hand to her pulse to check her life. “There is wolfsbane in her system,” the pack doctor tells Lorcan which they already knew about. Wolfsbane is a werewolf’s number one weakness
Alpha Axel did not want Celia to stay in the packhouse, and he doesn’t want her to be anywhere near Lorcan.However, Lorcan couldn’t care less about his father and what he wants even though he is the Alpha of his pack. Lorcan is ready to defy his own father just for Celia.Even if it means going against his own father, no one could stop him from taking care of Celia.Lorcan took Celia in one of the packhouse’s best room. He even called the best omegas to take care of Celia. He stayed right by her side as she rested and waited for her to wake up.Even the pack doctor who had no power to reduce the effects of wolfsbane in Celia’s body, was forced to stay in case that something bad happens to her.Celia comes from a long line of betas. She did not even drink much from the poisoned drink. What bad could possibly happen to her?Lorcan is so smitten by Celia that he is treating her like a delicate flower. He couldn’t even be bothered when his mate was fighting for her life.If Celia had dra
