Samantha’s POV.I woke up to the pleasant aroma of Luna Rosario’s cooking; she is the Luna for the ice prowler’s clan. Beautiful and down to earth. She made my stay at their place so much fun. I learned everything I needed to know about werewolves and Vargulfs from her.So far, none of their histories relate to Cervantes; neither is his name mentioned. Rosario related her story to mine; she also got her first shift very late and was treated as an outcast .I tried shifting myself to see what I looked like. It wasn’t coming, she told me not to force it and just go with the flow. I didn’t want to return to the Lycan’s Prowler Pack; I was enjoying my stay here.I am human, and I must find a way to return to my father. "Auriel!" Cervantes called out in his cold voice."One minute," I said as I jumped out of bed quickly. I packed my black hair in a messy bun, the black colors were faded compared to my real blond. I needed more dye.Every day I looked forward to the day when I could boldly
Alpha Herveaux’s POV.Tristan was overly joyful about the decision I made. Making my heart beat differently again. The emotions I feel are so strange. "It's all for you, Tristan; anything to make you happy."He fluttered his tail freely, longing for her. "Father" Tala called out to me, shyly, at the door without coming inside. I knew what it meant anytime she called me like that; she either did something wrong or wanted something I wouldn’t give on a normal day."So are you maning the door for Father?" "Come inside, my love," I stood up and carried her inside my room."To what do I owe this visit, your highness?" I teased her."When is Auriel coming? I want to see or," she asked. "Where is Dante?’ I asked her."He’s outside," she responded. "Just leave him there.""Father has decided to do the right thing.""Auriel is coming back," she jumped on my bed and asked curiously."Father," she gripped me. "Tell me, is she?"I nodded the positive. She jumped really hard on my bed. I could onl
Daciana’s POVThe sky was mumbling, covered with dark clouds, and thundering randomly as I waited outside for Derrick to let me in. The rain started falling heavily. Drenched in cold, I stood my ground, not leaving even though my wolf was beginning to feel weak. The poison was spreading really fast. I had to make a fast decision. I could either die waiting or go inside and face whatever was in store for me. I would rather die than lose my wolf. I decided.I went inside confidently. Derrick’s men tried to seize me, but he stopped them. "I now understand what my brother saw in you, the bravery and absolute confidence, even if it might cost you your life.""What's in it for me?" he asked. Derrick sat down close to the fire. He was burning some stuff on paper. He was in his human form. He wore a big fur coat and a short, ripped jeans.The resemblance between him and Alpha Herveaux was so close. Derrick just looked unkempt and somehow older."You will break him; it's left for you to get t
Samantha’s POVI laid the lovely wedding gown Alpha Draglun gave me on the bed. It was dazzling and beautiful, not fully pure white but shimmering. "Am I taking the right steps?’ I asked myself once. Now that I also have a wolf, I should just teleport to the human world; it should be possible.During my stay at the Ice Prowler’s pack, Cervantes killed the idea. Regardless of your post, you still need the passage from Alpha Herveaux. Today I will get married to a man my wolf loves and my heart detests.When we left Alpha Draglun’s store and the message came to Luna Rosario that we had a message from Alpha Herveaux, I recalled Cervantes telling me not to mind the outcome because he would make sure both replies, either the positive or negative favored me.Alpha Herveaux’s countenance were different when he first sighted me, but he suddenly went so cold like his normal self. Thanks to Tala and Dante, I feel a little bit relieved.When Beta Fernando came to call me, I was scared to death a
Alpha Herveaux POVComprehending what just happened was far from easy. Auriel just challenged my supreme powers. I never saw her come to that. Not even after she would become my luna. That bravery was not from her. She appeared to be influenced or intoxicated. I accepted her challenge anyway."Beta Fernando," I called out to him instantly. "Change the verdict for today’s ceremony, invite every legal citizen and occupant of the packs under my rule," I request. Beta Fernando couldn’t believe his ears. "Do not crave my indulgence, Beloved Alpha, but I must ask this," he bowed worriedly."Why the sudden change? You claimed you saw a vargulf attack us when we celebrated Tala’s birthday, you had to end the party abruptly due to our safety, which was being threatened.""Why the sudden change?" he asked."I am a capable and competent Alpha, the security of my subjects would remain top priority, but then I would never chicken out; whoever wants to fight me should do so publicly," I pronounced
Samantha’s pov"Avayah?" I repeated the name I heard. I saw my wolf for the first time in person, Brenda and Tala were also there. "She’s so pretty; she looks just like my mother's." Tala hugged the wolf tightly. Brenda was still in fear but brought herself together after seeing Tala hug the wolf innocently."I'm so happy you hadn't worn your gown before you transformed; you should learn to control it!" Branda snapped."She looks so much like Luna Ashina’s wolf, and they have the same name too, Ava..yah?" Brenda called slowly. I shifted back into my body. On the one hand, I was content, but on the other, I desired.A maid rapped on the door, summoning Brenda. I had her hurry up with my makeup and dressing. We took our final picture before she left."Why must I get a wolf similar to Ashina’s?" I asked myself. The gown looked so beautiful on me. I couldn’t wait to wear it down the aisle. Cervantes told me to give him every update about my transformation and Wolf; he also told me to be o
Alpha Herveaux’s POVDacaina showed up suspiciously. I cringed but got some composure after seeing Auriel ready to face off with her. Daciana wasn’t even there for me, but for Auriel. Repeating the same old claim that she was mated to another wolf.Aureil took a stand against her. I almost lost it when they took Dante hostage. Auriel transformed into that beautiful rear wolf I had never seen until I met her.At that moment, I swore to myself to do the right thing regardless of how it made me feel or any other person.I had to force Luna Rudina and Ashina to leave. They were all over Aurieil. I made an appointment with Great Alune. Auriel’s wolf is still a mystery, and we are yet to confirm what it truly is. It looked so much like Ashina’s wolf, Avayah; did she probably return? I poured myself some drinks to avert the numerous thoughts in my head because Tristan was too happy to help me answer any of them.Auriel asked viciously what I was trying to do. "I'm pouring myself a drink,
Samantha’s POVI was gently awakened by the aromas of vanilla cookies, rose mint soap, and lemon tea. When it opened, Brenda was the first person I looked at. She was directly in front of me when I saw her.My bath was being prepared by Brenda. That explains the scent of rose-mint soap that I was noticing, I said.The hot cookies' clear steam was so obvious as it rose. I suppose the wolf's power also blessed me with a clearer vision."Good morning, Luna; your bath is ready," she said as I jumped out of bed.I thought back right away to last night, when I had a bad fall and sprained my ankle. There were no aches or pains, not even a surface scratch. "Are things all right?" Brenda questioned me lowly. She looked disgusted, and I could tell. I absentmindedly sat down on the ground and looked at my feet. "Oh, yes," I said politely.I was helped off the ground by Brenda. She then assisted in removing my dress while I was facing the mirror in front of her. I looked in the mirror. I stopp
SAMANTHA’S POV. ONE YEAR LATER. His broad hand drew me into his arms with a tight hug that i felt in my soul. "Happy birthday, my beloved Luna," his coarse, seductive voice whispered in my ears."Hmmm," I heaved, still pretending to be asleep. He placed a small box beside me. "I want to go to the bath; will you join me? I know you’re awake," he uttered. He took off his clothes, and I fell in love with him all over again. It was my birthday again, a day I have regretted and wished never came just because of that unforgettable night. Alpha Herveaux changed that. It became a day I now look forward to."So what’s my first gift?" I asked him jokingly. "Me!" he coerced seductively. "What else can I ask for? Can I have you now?" I can’t wait to see his expression when he finds out I am pregnant with his child. "That night a few months ago, I thought you left; I would have been miserable without you. Thank you, Samantha," he uttered as he made out with me.He carried me down to
ALPHA HERVEAUX’S POV.I rolled to the other side of the bed, expecting a push or a sound, but none was forthcoming; Auriel had left. It sent me a bewildering, intense feeling of sadness that swept all my happiness away."Don’t be sad; she probably went for the kill; only she can defeat Falcon," I consoled Tristan. If it turns out otherwise, then I’ll just go with the flow. I am back to full strength. Before Sunrise reveals its glory, I will go and defend the city. It won’t go down with me alive.She left the clothes she had picked out for me to wear at the extreme edge of the bed. She still cares, but maybe as a friend and not as my Luna.The clothes seemed like camouflage. There was no way I could hide without getting spotted or noticed; it was pointless hiding or wearing camouflage. I got dressed and was ready for the kill. I stepped out, and a smile returned to my face when I saw the moon. I growled. It meant she was still around. "I hope she sees me before leaving," I wished o
SAMANTHA’S POV. My heart fluttered watching him sleep soundly like a baby. His heart was beating slowly, and his face had a mild smile. "I am his peace," I muttered, blushing uncontrollably. "I’m sorry, my love, I’ll have to leave before you wake up. Just let’s stay alive all through. I really can’t decide now." I whispered and kissed him goodbye.I didn’t care if I would make it or not, but my love for him and his children was driving me to my peak."Avayah, Valerie, we are going to find Falcon and kill him. Easy, right?" I asked them jokingly. I tiptoed out of Ashina’s house so Herveaux would continue his sound sleep. The only place on my mind where I felt I could find Falcon was at Derrick’s mansion, the same place where Alpha Herveaux was held hostage. The mansion was miles away from the house. I wondered what made Ashina come this far and live there alone; not even Herveaux knew of the place. "Thank you, Avayah; you led me there, right?" I shifted like a pro as I ra
ALPHA HERVEAUX’S POV.The wavering sounds of the waters at the sea stirred my eyes to open and my soul to awaken. Still in pain, I struggled to get up on my feet. "Hey, just lie down there; you’re still hurt."The voice I had always wanted to hear spoke to me. I beamed with a smile and fell back onto the bed. She hurried up to meet me."Herveaux, are you with me?" She asked worriedly, holding my hands. She placed my hand on her face. It still felt like a dream. I never knew she’d return to me. Especially now that I needed her the most."Samantha?" I murmured tiredly. "Yes, it’s me; I am here," she responded. My hands found her blonde hair, and I flicked them away from her face. "You’re beautiful," I said to her, smirking."I know there is no time to waste; tell me what to do; how can I heal you?" she asked instantaneously. She dragged me up the wall so I could rest my back. "Where is this place?" I asked anxiously. I had never been there, and it was pleasant. "It Belonged to
SAMANTHA’S POV. Gwendolyn helped me pack my bags. She was skeptical about it at first, then I was the one eager to leave."Will you tell your father about it first? Have you made any plans?" She asked me carefully. "None for now. I have been trying to call Alpha Draglun, but he isn’t responding. Do you think he’s also caught in this?" I asked her concernedly. "Keep calling, he might answer before you get there. Your father is not home right now. I will just tell him when he returns," Gwendolyn responded impatiently. I sat down on the bed tiredly. "Why are you acting like this?""Don’t tell me you’re backing out or having second thoughts, okay let’s do this, if the thing get out of your control, just say goodbye and come back to us, how about that?" Gwendolyn asked. Gwendolyn was done packing my bags. She collected the cellphone from me and put it inside. "So how do you get there? You’re not going by car, right?" she asked confusedly, and it made me blush. "Partly by ca
ALPHA HERVEAUX’S POV. The dangers of the night were out; the whole place was dark and sneaky. Not a single soul was around. The whole place was dark, and the absence of the moon didn’t go unnoticed. For once, I doubted the information Brenda gave me. It came so easily; just a few minutes after she left me, she returned overhead and came to me. "I don’t mind; I have no other choice," I said loudly to myself to stop the non-stop pondering in my mind. I checked the whole area. The woods, underneath, and even the sea that was nearby, but there is no sign of anyone there. "I will wait a while and leave if no one shows up," I coerced. I checked the paper she gave me again. "It’s here; I definitely am in the right place. Where are you hiding my children, Falcon?" I whispered, still searching. "Right here!" he responded with a wild roar. He threw Miranda’s body down from the tree. "Damn you, Falcon, I knew it!" I groaned painfully. She was still alive but writhing in pain."Don’t wor
SAMANTHA’S POV. He was dressed in the prisoner’s uniform. It suits him really well. "I still can’t believe I once liked men that looked like him," I whispered into Gwendolyn’s ear."You’ve said that before, okay? Thanks to Herveaux, you got to know there were better men than he was," she snapped.Lorenzo was called up, and he was sitting right in front of me. He was sad and teary. "I will have my revenge, Lorenzo; I really can’t wait to crush you and end your life; no one will save you from me," I said to him."I will take whatever punishment you give me; please spare my wife and our innocent baby," he pleaded with me. He fell on his feet and held onto my legs.I kicked him off angrily. "The police, you can’t assault him," Gwendolyn pulled me back."Dummy, I tipped them off; I am Samantha Eduardo!" I replied, laughing loudly, and continued kicking him. "I will kick them out of that house and throw them into the streets. You did the same to my innocent father, so why can’t I do th
ALPHA HERVEAUX’S POV.Fernando fought against me with all his might, and I realized he wouldn’t stop until he was dead. I stopped fighting him. "I did you no wrong! I need to go save my children. I will kill you this time if you attack me again," I said to him."No, you will have to go through me!" he growled wildly. "You’re not in control Fernando, you can still get yourself back; I don’t want to kill you," I pleaded, ready to give up everything. It hurt so much to see the man who raised you like a father ready to kill you. I know he wasn’t as powerful as I was, but living with the guilt of killing him would be hard on me. "I forgive you for everything you’ve done against me, even though you think I was the one who offended you!" I yelled. "You were ready to choose another Beta and shamefully disperse me; you never trusted me; you handed over the throne to your brother; you could have promoted me to Alpha!" he grunted.It sounded so odd. I never knew he wanted to become Alp
SAMANTHA’S POV. I snuggled my body meekily under the tender, silky cover on my bed. My back ached so bad, but it’d turn into a soothing pain as I starched on the bed.My normal routine before sleeping started, whereby I had to think about every disgusting thing I did that day and even years ago, blame myself, praise myself a little, and have a mixture of regrets."Did I do the right thing with Alpha Draglun?"I shunned him. I could have just said NO politely, but I said it in a rage. I just hope he understands that I don't want that life anymore. Alpha Herveaux is the strongest man I know, and I believe he can fight off whoever threatens his pack. Moreover, He places it on a high pedestal, so he’ll never watch it fall."I just hope my thoughts are right," I said, thinking out loud. Like usual, I fell asleep without knowing it; all I knew was that I felt peaceful with a great ache in my heart that I refused to acknowledge.I felt a soft, hairy hand on my face. "Alpha Herveaux,"
