“Where were you?” Ruston stood up from his bed when Selwyn suddenly barged into their room and locked their door close. Ruston has been waiting for his brother. He is starting to get worried because he had no idea where he was and he is taking too long to return. He was about to go out to search for him, but he arrived right on time. “What happened?” Ruston’s brows furrowed when he noticed how tense his twin brother was. Selwyn chased his breath as he placed a hand on his beating heart, trying to calm himself down. He looked like he had seen a ghost. He still hasn’t recovered from his surprise yet.Ruston approached his brother with a slight crease on his forehead. His eyes glimmered in concern as he placed a hand over his brother’s shoulder and gazed at him. “What happened?” Ruston asked him again. “Where have you been?”Selwyn slowly lifted his head when he heard the concern in his brother’s voice. His troubled eyes are connected with his brother’s concerned gaze which is wonder
Celia paused as she think of a way to keep Lorcan from being alone with the twins. She glanced up at Lorcan as she prepared for a reason that she was going to say. The twins stared at Celia already expecting that she was going to say something against that. They crossed their fingers as they hoped that their father wouldn’t play along with her tricks.“There’s actually something that I need help with. It’s about work, can you do it for me?” Celia leaned towards Lorcan as she asked him kindly, hoping that he would agree to help her.The twins glanced at their father simultaneously waiting for his answer. Lorcan slowly lifted his head back up to face Celia. “I canceled all my work today, Celia. I already scheduled the whole day for my sons. Can’t this wait tomorrow?” Lorcan asks her back, turning her down respectfully. Celia fell speechless. Lorcan never turns down work. Even when he is busy, he always prioritizes the Pack and their work. His sons must be so important to him that he
“Luna Savina,” Raven barged into Luna Savina’s room with Kissa chasing after her. After Raven heard all the secrets that Celia had, and all the evil tricks that she had played, she rushed directly to Luna Savina’s room since she was the person that is in the most danger right now. “Raven,” Luna Savina smiled at her. “You came right in time.”Raven ignored her words. She rushed towards her and knelt right in front of her. “Luna, are you okay? Do you feel hurt anywhere?” Raven asked her with brows creased together. She touched her forehead to check her temperature and placed two fingers on Luna Savina’s wrist to check her overall health. “What’s wrong, Raven?” Luna Savina asked her softly with how she was fussing over her. She couldn’t help but feel worried about her instead because of how concerned she was with her. Raven didn’t reply. She listened closely to Luna Savina’s pulse and checked her vitality. “I’m not going to recover after just one meal, Raven. You will need to take
Raven haven’t said a word ever since she jumped in and stopped Kissa from confessing everything. A heavy weight rested upon her heart, but she tried her best to ignore it. Raven felt selfish and inconsiderate for still wanting the truth to come out at the expense of harming Luna Savina’s health. It’s natural for her to desire justice, and to have it as soon as possible after she had waited for five years, but if she wants justice, she should have it without causing harm to anyone else. Since Luna Savina is not in good health, she should think of something else. Although it would have been better and more convenient if only Luna Savina was in good health. Raven sat carefully on the bed beside Luna Savina while Kissa handed her a plate of freshly sliced fruits ensuring that it didn’t contain any poison. Luna Savina doesn’t have any appetite. She still feels full from the bowl of porridge that she emptied early this morning. Still, Raven insisted that she eat something and in the end
Lorcan sauntered into Elder Luna Savina’s room with a worried expression on his face. Different thoughts entered his head as he thought of many reasons as to why his mother would call for her. “Mother, you called for me,” Lorcan spoke respectfully to her mother who was lying on her bed when he entered.Luna Savina smiled when she saw her son walk in. Lorcan smiled back when he saw the positive expression on her face. Luna Savina never like it when someone interrupts her sleep and visits her room. She gets angry instantly whenever someone enters her room, but this time it’s completely different. It was she who invited him to come visit her. Her face even brightened when she saw her son enter.Lorcan rushed to her mother’s side to help her when she tried to force herself up. He placed a guiding hand behind her back to lift her up. “Is everything alright?” Lorcan asked her in a soft whisper.Lorcan’s eyes discreetly searched around, hoping to see Raven. The omega told her that Raven w
Raven pressed her lips together when she heard Lorcan’s confession. Her hand involuntarily reached to her aching chest as tears welled out of her eyes.She had no idea… She had no idea that Lorcan has been feeling this way towards her. All her life, she thought Lorcan never felt any genuine feelings towards her. She thought he was only forced to love her and be with her because of the mate bond. Now that she heard the truth, she realized how blind she has been to fail to see his unspoken feelings. She realized how stupid she has been to believe other people’s lies other than the genuine feelings and actions that Lorcan had shown her. Luna Savina scoffed mockingly when she heard Lorcan’s reply. “Are you saying that you realized you love her because of the mate bond?” Luna Savina questioned him. Luna Savina knows that Raven had already heard the truth she needed to hear. There was no more need for Luna Savina to keep up the act and probe her son even further. Still, she decided to ge
Lorcan’s heart sank as the truth unraveled before him. As his son spoke everything he knew with tears and a scared look in his eyes, Lorcan felt stupid for failing to see through Celia’s fake appearances and see through her deception and lies. A whirlwind of emotions swept through Lorcan’s being, and slowly a storm raged within him as he grappled with the truth that shattered the foundation of trust he had built with Celia. Lorcan couldn’t speak. Even though he was also a victim of Celia’s schemes, he still couldn’t help but feel that he was partly responsible for failing to recognize Celia’s deceptive lies. Lorcan should have known that there was nothing good about Celia when he found out how she pretended to be sick and sucked the blood out of Raven for revenge. He should have left her then and there. If Celia could play such a magnanimous lie, then it means she is someone who can’t be trusted. Luna Savina held her head weakly after Selwyn finished his story. She looked so pale
Lorcan and Raven rode a car to reach the pack borders much faster. Deafening silence filled the whole car, as Lorcan and Raven didn’t say a word to each other even though they share the same goal and they are helping each other to look for their son and rescue him before anything bad could happen to him. Lorcan’s heart is filled with guilt as he blames himself for everything. Meanwhile, Raven couldn’t forget Lorcan’s words during the conversation he had with Luna Savina. Lorcan’s face is cold and indifferent as he steps out of the car when they finally arrive at the very edge of the forest. Lorcan clenched his fists, his body tense with determination. He is going to protect his son at all costs. He will never be able to forgive himself if something bad happens to his son. Rescuing his son and making sure that he is safe is the only good thing he could do for his family. He would never let down Raven ever again. Lorcan and Raven shifted to their wolves along with the others who w
