Valeria POV

I lay on the floor, covered in sweat. It felt like I was inside scorching fire; my body ached, and I was in so much pain. I was just on the floor, my bones weak. I tried to move my hand but couldn’t move a muscle; my bones keep breaking at unnatural angles, and I have lost my voice from screaming so much.

“Now I know why we shift so early. Our bones are still young; the pain won’t be as much as now when we are older,” Carlos said. They have been watching me, all with worried faces.

“It’s been hours,” Dante said. I closed my eyes, hot tears falling down my face. I can’t take this anymore. Damien walked towards me, bending down to my height.

“I think all your bones have been broken and fixed back to the spot; it is left for your wolf to complete the shift,” he said, removing my hair from my sticky face. I looked at him, and I know he can read my thoughts. I need water—a really cold one.

  • In The Hands Of My Alpha   Chapter 38 (Surge Of Energy)

    Valeria POVIt was the next day, and we are currently in the afternoon waiting for Richard. Damien had told him to rest before coming. I just sat down, watching the warriors train. Damien and Dante are with Stella and I guess I don’t really want to be a part of the interrogation because Damien would still inform me how it went. I have just been thinking of my wolf. Sofia has been asleep. The shift took a lot of her energy. At least I can feel her now and I call her every hour to make sure she is still there, and she replies to me with a snap, which I honestly don’t mind because she is here.“Luna,” a voice called. I looked up and saw it was a warrior. I am honestly not used to the title.“Alpha asked of you. He is in the conference room,” he said. I smiled, nodding my head, then I stood up. I forgot I blocked my mind link after I shifted. I didn’t want him spying on my thoughts. I didn’t want him to see how worried I was if I am truly like Lux. I am just a normal wolf, never trained o

  • In The Hands Of My Alpha   Chapter 39 (Downsouth Pack)

    Valeria POVWe got to the pack house, and I walked to our room. Damien said he had something to do; he didn’t even tell me when the ceremony would take place. I ran my hands through my hair, entering our quarters, and I stopped in my tracks as Darcy stood there with teary eyes. A lot has happened over the past few days, and I honestly forgot about her. I walked slowly towards her.“Hey,” I whispered, licking my lips. She blinked in her tears, looking up at the ceiling.“You can’t just say all that to me and disappear Valeria,” she said, looking at me with tired eyes. I walked towards her, hugging her tightly. We stayed in that position, not moving, and I breathed out. We clearly both need the hug. “I didn’t mean to; a lot happened in just the few days we left,” I said. She pulled back, taking my hand and dragging me to the living room. We took our seats on the couch, and I removed my shoes, folding myself on the couch.“What happened?” she asked, looking at me. “No, you tell me firs

  • In The Hands Of My Alpha   Chapter 40 (Baby Steps)

    Valeria POVThis was the last thing he said before cutting the call abruptly. I stared at the phone, anger rushing through me in waves. How dare he call me a monster? I never killed anyone and never did anything monsterious. Mother is alive and well; I didn’t kill her like they claimed I almost did, so how dare he? He is the monster who has cast away his child since she was born, and for no reason. All I ever did was born and exist, so how dare he open his filthy mouth to call me a monster?“Valeria, I can feel your anger from here.” Damien’s voice cut me off from my thoughts. He mind linked me.“What happened?” he asked softly, and I sighed, my eyes getting teary. “Valeria,” Darcy called, trying to hide her fear, but I could just feel it. I put my face in my palms, crying out loud.“Am I truly a monster?” I cried. She didn’t say a word, then she placed her hand on my shoulders and hugged me to herself.“You’re not a monster, Valeria; you are the sweetest person I know. You can be a

  • In The Hands Of My Alpha   Chapter 41 (Meeting The Parents)

    Valeria POVIt was the next day, a few hours before the Luna ceremony, and I was with Darcy and a few omegas dressing up. The pack seems very busy; I have barely seen Damien today. His parents were supposed to arrive yesterday, but something happened, so he went to make sure they arrived safely while also watching over the event. Today has been passing by in a blur; it felt like my body was here but my soul was in another place. I never thought an alpha would be my mate; I never thought I would be a luna to a powerful alpha one day, but I guess it’s really crazy how things can change.“Valeria,” Darcy called, and I looked up at her. She sighed.“Can you smile? Be in a better mood, at least. If the pack notices your foul mood, it will rub off on them,” she said. I sighed, looking in the mirror. She was doing my makeup.“I am trying hard to hide the stress lines and dark circles. I thought you slept the whole of yesterday. Why are you so worn out today?” she asked. I didn’t really sleep

  • In The Hands Of My Alpha   Chapter 42 (Luna Ceremony)

    Valeria POVI walked down the aisle dressed in a plain white gown. The night seems to be passing in a blur. The sweet music is playing, and the pack holding candles with a soft melody coming out of their lips. Almost everyone from the pack is present. The pack is quite large because there are a lot of people here. The ceremony is happening in the field, and everyone is watching. I took my oats, promising to protect the pack and always put them first. I promised myself to keep that promise; this pack has been a better home, and they have all been so accepting. I don’t know what is really going on with the whole Lux stuff, but I truly promise to protect the pack as a mother hen would protect her chicks. After they announced me as Luna, Damien told the crowd we wouldn’t be able to take a run and we should just have fun and eat with the pack, and that’s what we did. “This is a lot of food,” I said, looking at the different tables at the buffet. How did they cook this so fast? “I inform

    Valeria POV“Accepted,” I said, smirking at her scared face. Everyone went silent, and I waited for Damien to confirm the challenge, even if I had already confirmed it by saying I accept. Damien didn’t say anything, and we all remained in silence.“Kate, you challenged Luna Valeria for her position as Luna and her mate,” the former alpha Blake said, and nobody could miss the annoyance in his tone. She turned to him.“Yes,” she replied. “And you accept the challenge, Valeria?” He asked me next.“Yes, alpha,” I replied. He is no longer the alpha, but obviously everyone still respects him as the alpha. He nods his head.“A challenge has been formed and would take place here in the field in a week, and it would be a challenge to death,” he said. There were murmurs, but I just looked at Kate. I am definitely not dying in the challenge, and I will make sure of it. I was scared before because I didn’t have a wolf and never trained; now I have my wolf, an alpha wolf. She is no match for me i

  • In The Hands Of My Alpha   Chapter 44 (Trust Me)

    Valeria POVIt was the next day, and of course I woke up with a terrible headache. I sat in the kitchen groaning while rubbing my head. Everyone was there, and I noticed how they were just staring at me. I was confused, but didn’t want to mention anything.“Here is the soup,” Luna said, handing over a bowl of soup to me and Darcy. Of course, we both have hangovers.“Ugh, how much did I drink yesterday?” she said, blowing on her soup. I chuckled. “You wanted to get some with Sam, so you kept drinking,” I said, remembering clearly when she started drinking because I hadn’t drunk at all at the time. She made me drink; I shouldn’t have listened.“I did?” she asked, looking. I chuckled.“You look worn out; at least you got some,” I said, drinking my soup. It is blazing hot.“Careful, Valeria,” Luna said, and I smiled at her, nodding my head.“I didn’t get any Valeria; I can feel my legs,” Darcy said. I looked at her in disgust because I don’t want to know her and Sam's bedroom activities.

    Valeria POVI lay on the floor, sweating.“Come on Valeria, you’ve not landed any hits,” Alpha said, standing above me. I looked at him, the sun entering my eyes directly. I breathed out, standing up. I stretched my body tiredly, staring at Alpha. He has been whooping my ass for two straight hours, and I have not landed any hits. “Damien, you’ve been going easy on her,” he said, looking at his son, who has been watching him whoop my ass. But my ears stretched at his statement. Easy? “Easy?” I asked.“He is the best fighter in the pack. How has he trained you, and you’ve not landed any hits on me?” he asked. I looked at both of them, ignoring how alike they were looking right now. “He definitely went hard on me,” I said, remembering what happened to me. Damien smiled sheepishly, and I couldn’t believe it.“You’ve been going easy on me.” I asked, and my mouth hung open. Darcy laughed out loud, almost falling over on her own two feet. The bitch refused to leave. “We take a 30-minute

  • In The Hands Of My Alpha   Chapter 116 (Overwhelmed)

    Valeria POVI woke up from my sleep, and I was in an unfamiliar bed. I looked around me, and I could hear the sound of birds chirping. The room was big and comfortable, with not too many designs. And the big window was opened, allowing the gentle breeze to come into the room. Something about the breeze, the chirping sounds of the bed, and the serenity makes me feel so calm.I smiled, coming down from the bed. I left the room and burst into the hallway. The hallway was spacious, and there were some vintage-looking lamps hanging on the walls. The floor was wooden, and the walls were a creamy colour. I walked down, and I got to the stairs. I walked down the stairs, and I was in the spacious living room. Instead of walls, it was a transparent glass wall, and I could see what was going on outside. We were surrounded by more beautiful green trees. The front yard is filled with soft green grass, and it looks so beautiful.“You’re awake,” Dmitri said, and I turned around. He smiled at me, wal

  • In The Hands Of My Alpha   Chapter 115 (The Trip)

    Dmitri’s POVI smiled, watching Valeria dance with some little children. The trip has been going way better than I imagined. I knew I needed to do something to get her out of her comfort zone, to show her a new world. All the things I said about my flings were true; I was never the man to fall in love with any woman. The last woman I loved genuinely was my mate, and she died so many years ago that I have forgotten some memories of her. I had flings, and they were there for sexual pleasure. It was nothing more than that. But with Valeria, it was different. Something about her captured my soul, and I have loved her for a long time.I am ready to take it step by step with her, ready to make her fall in love with me at her own pace. What she went through was sad; it shaped her into the life she lived today. But I know that is not who she is. Valeria just wants love; she wants to be loved, and she wants happiness. She may be stubborn, but that is a facade, and I saw right through her. Seei

  • In The Hands Of My Alpha   Chapter 114 (New Experiences)

    Valeria POVI sat in the passenger seat, jamming to the song playing on the radio. It was three days later, and Dmitri and I were on our way to this surprise he organised for us. I have no idea where we are headed, but I am happy to be with him. He left two days ago to fix everything, and then he came back with some bags. He told me to wear the floral yellow sundress with a pair of brown sandals. The dress is a free long dress with a very fitted waist. It has spaghetti strap arms, and the gown cups up my breast, showing a bit of cleavage. Dmitri brushed my hair, leaving it messy as it fell down my back. He used some lip balm on my lips, and I was looking so beautiful and simple. I have never dressed that way; it was new, refreshing and simple. I loved it.I remembered how Egan looked at me. He was in awe, and his eyes were teary. I suddenly got shy, and they laughed at me. Dmitri was keeping his words, and I was welcoming it. The way he dressed me up, I looked so feminine. It was givi

    Valeria POVI pulled back after crying my eyes out, and he cleaned my tears.“I’m sorry,” I said, looking at his body. He was shirtless, as usual, and I just cleaned my face on it. He looked down at his chest and waved it off.“It’s okay,” he said softly. He stood up, and I watched him go; soon he came back and lay down beside me.“You alright?” he asked, and I nodded my head, smiling. Felt good to get that off my chest.“You look cute when you cry,” he said, and I laughed.“Do I?” I asked, and he nodded his head. I smiled, lying down, and we both looked at each other.“You should get rid of your flings,” I said, and he raised his brows.“Why?” he asked.“If you claim to love me, then you need to stay loyal to me,” I said, and he chuckled.“But you are not mine,” he said.“You are lying on my bed, beside me,” I said, and he smiled.“Is that a yes?” he asked. I turned around, smiling.“Do it the right way and I will reconsider,” I said, fighting my smile. That was a beautiful speech; e

  • In The Hands Of My Alpha   Chapter 112 (I want YOU)

    Valeria POVDmitri lay down beside me, his arms under his head. We have both taken separate baths, and now we are on the bed, with a small distance between us. It was awkward, all my fierce attitude of the window. Am I supposed to move closer? Am I supposed to drag him to me? I hated how I was acting like a teenager in love. I glanced at him, and he seemed lost in thoughts. What could he be thinking? What is going through his mind? I looked away, swallowing hard. I should try to make a conversation, say something to get rid of this awkwardness. I cleared my throat.“So, when was the last time you had sex?” I asked, and a deep laughter left his mouth. I looked at him, and he was laughing at my question. He was laughing so hard I was surprised because I have never seen him like this. I rolled my eyes.“What’s funny?” I asked, and he breathed out. Running a hand through his hair.“I’m sorry, pardon my laughter,” he said, and I rolled my eyes at him again. Well, don’t blame a girl for ask

    Valeria POVSoon, night settled, and Egan and Cassidy left. I guess she was taking him to her quarters. I was left with Dmitri in this big-ass apartment, and I was quite nervous. We were still in the kitchen, seated on the island, and his stare was making me uneasy. I shifted in my seat nervously, looking at him.“What?” I asked, and he smiled slightly.“I am excited to see you nervous,” he said, and I raised my brows.“Why?” I mumbled. He shrugged his shoulders.“Nothing, it’s just amusing to see. You have some emotions in you,” he said, and I rolled my eyes.“When have I ever not been emotional?” I asked, and he breathed out.“The girl you killed, you didn’t care much for her,” he said, and I rubbed my neck.“It was a mistake,” I said, and he shook his head.“She was innocent,” he said, and I breathed out.“Well, I compensated her family,” I said, and he raised his brows.“You did?” he asked, and I nod my head.“I told Cassidy about it. Her family is super wealthy now,” I said.“Tha

    Valeria POVWe finished eating, and Egan took the plates, clearing them.“So, why have you decided to grace us with your presence?” Cassidy asked. Egan didn’t tell her, I guess.“Vladimir”, I said, and she raised her brows.“What happened to him?” she asked, and I smiled.“I went to a strip club and met his son. He actually drugged me and tried to rape me,” I said, and her mouth hung open.“And you shove out his dick, literally,” Dmitri completed my statement, drinking his juice. Cassidy’s eyes widened, then she burst into loud laughter.“He deserves more than that. You never take advantage of a woman. We are terribly against it,” she said, and I nod my head.“Grace must have called you,” she said, and I nodded my head.“The bitch wants my apology. Obviously, she only wants to humiliate me because she and Vladimir won’t let it go. They will surely want their revenge,” I said, and she nodded her head.“Yes, she doesn’t like you, anyway. She feels threatened,” Cassidy said, and I nod my

    aleria POVWe pulled apart and stared at each other. Was I betraying Damien by doing this? Was I committing a grave sin? Should I be regretting this and locking myself up as I hide my face in shame?“Hey, don’t overthink it,” Dmitri said softly, searching my face.“I am not,” I said, and he raised his brows.“You are, Valeria. Don’t overthink it,” he muttered. I smiled softly, my body still tingling at the thought of the kiss. It’s been so long since I had a kiss, a kiss where I genuinely wanted to, a kiss where I shared the same amount of passion. I have kissed a lot of me, but those are all hungry kisses, no emotions, and it was not in the least affectionate. But this one it was everything I could ever imagine. I wrapped my arms around him, hiding my face in his shoulders, and I took in his scent. He smelt different; he smelt like home, and he smelt like warmth, and it made me happy. He rubbed my back slowly, his hand trailing down my spine.“You are so strong,” he whispered in my e

  • In The Hands Of My Alpha   Chapter 108 (My Story)

    Valeria POVI could tell Egan and Dmitri were confused, but this is something I have kept to myself for years. Of course, I wasn’t going to joke around all my life and not have anything to fall back on. I made this, me alongside all these women. We had only one goal, and it was to use our power or influence to do the right thing because everyone here has been wronged by the world. We all have our story, ranging from worse to better. And I am happy that, after so many years, this organisation was finally going to be helpful to me. I heard a low growl as Cassidy and I pulled apart, and I turned to Egan. He was staring at Cassidy with hooded eyes, and she also looked back at him with the same gaze. I gasped.“Is she your mate?” I asked, excited. But of course, they both didn’t reply to me. Their gaze was fixed on each other, and I smiled. Finally, he has found his mate.“Let’s give them some privacy,” I said, dragging Dmitri with me. I held his hand, going fully into the palace.
