Light fills the room, coaxing me from deep sleep to wakefulness. I stretch out and open my eyes before walking near to look through the window. It’s a beautiful morning, the sun was peeking up through the clouds. It was indeed a view.
The bed was empty much to my dismay. Reed was already long gone, his scent was fading, he didn’t wake me before leaving. The thought make me sad for a minute. Yesterday was so much fun. We talked and talked till the manager of the restaurant himself came to tell us that it was too late and he had to shut the bar.
I came to know so much about him. His favourite things, how he despised coffee, which I would like to change his opinion on. How he love to read, his love for literature, which I can already guess from the giant library he had back in the castle. He had a huge collections of charlotte Brontë, Virginia wolf and of course Jane Austin.
Alpha Reed Xander is a mercurial man but with astonishing talents. Still one thin

“Emmy?” I heard him calling me again. I shut the book hurriedly. fuck if he saw the book, he won’t sit without getting a perfect excuse from me to have this book. he is much more stubborn than me when it comes to find something he suspects fishy. “I know you are inside. I can feel your presence duh.” He said lamely getting bored from the other side of the door. I put the book back in the bag and slide it under the bed back to its position. I sighed and open the door to find him standing in front of me, checking the bag, the delivery guy left on my door, drinking from my coffee. my breakfast! “Why were you taking so time to open the door?” he asked entering in the room, not bothering to look in my direction. He sit on the bed and empty the bag slowly, putting all the items out. I snatched my cup from his hand. “That’s mine and this too. Order your own food.” I gro
Reed’s pov “We have arrived Alpha.” Asher announced when we entered our territory. Our cars drove past the gates, crossing the new houses Derek’s pack settled in. I held my gaze outside, looking at everything, observing the new houses which were still in progress. Derek and I make a pact, I offered him some part of my land for his pack to settle. Also, he wanted to expand his business to the states. I wanted to ensure my pack’s safety. It was a win-win offer for both of us. My pack was already established across the world thanks to Diana. Diana have connections across the world and with her magic our pack have to change its place in every fifteen days with the moon ensuring my people’s safety. It is hefty as whole of our pack have to shift its position and but after a while all of my people get a nag of it. on the top of that they found it amusing to sight see other different pla
Esma’s pov August and Diana had already left the motel, leaving me and other remaining alphas. I stand and stared at the gate, August’s car leaving the Noman’s land, disappearing before my eyes. I don’t know why but for some reason, I was now regretting my decision of staying here. I could go with them and Diana could easily open the portal for me, but then I promised Reed I will wait for him. plus, there are other alphas here. Someone had to be here, it is not the right time to get selfish and think about ourselves. I sighed and turned back heading to my room. it was noon now but the sun was covered by the clouds, maybe it would rain. I missed rain. As if in cue the hair on my skin prickled with the uneasy feeling. My wolf as if sensing danger straightened her sense, I didn’t turn back and continued walking straight. I could feel someone was following me but I couldn’t smell any scent.
My heart thundered like a wild cat inside my ribcage. This book is definitely bounded by magic or some other shit. This looks old, hell ancient and how did I get my hands on it at the first place? No librarian would give me that older book to the new comer like me even if I am an alpha. Now that I think back, the man who gave me the book was new. He didn’t know much about the rules and conduct about the library. Maybe it’s just coincidence. I shake my heads to get rid of all the unnecessary thoughts. Maybe Diana must have done something. A protection spell or something, she already saw the book back in my room and I bet she definitely read the title back then. I resumed from the same page I folded before I was interrupted by August. The words here were more indistinct, I tried to read several times but didn’t succeed. I turned the pages and started reading whatever I could understand. When Selene refused Ze
Reed’s pov “I don’t have any idea about it. I don’t know it is like I can’t foresee future.” Diana said, her eyes were set on the dead bodies. She was conflicted and so was I. It was the second time someone intruded in my pack and slaughtered someone and Diana didn’t see it coming. First time it was a human girl who my people found out dead on my territory not far from here. Diana didn’t see that coming and I don’t blame her because her powers are subjected to the world of super naturals. She can’t see the fate of humans. But this? This is the work of rogues. “But how he got killed? I mean this is not possible. Emmy said it was impossible for the wolf to die at the alpha position” August, his annoying mate cuts in my thoughts and I feel like to punch him on his face. I don’t know why she bought him with her. “I don’t know but they did some kind of clocking incantation. On a mass level.” Diana said still busy in her mind. August made a
Reed’s pov “Here. Take my blood.” I cut my hand for the hundredth time, the blood ooze out from the veins like a fountain. I offered my hand to the old lady. She stared at my face; I know she know who I am. The Cursed Alpha. She was hesitating, taking her time to choose between the moral thought of staying loyal to her previous or true alpha and die as a rogue or dare to deceive the already dead Derek she feared will turn into his graves if she pledge to my loyalty, joining my pack and live. The urge of living always wins in the end. She wiped my blood from her mouth and I moved forward to the next victim, my hand already healed, I have to slash my hand again to draw more blood. What a punishment. “Done.” August called out. We have split the pack in two halves, making sure families stayed together and sired them to our packs. I nodded and finally moved to the girl standing there in th
Esma’s pov I flipped the coin in the air for the third time. If it’s head, I am going to summon Moona, if tails… the gravity pulled the coin back and I caught it on my right hand and closed my eyes briefly before seeing the result. Childish? maybe. Idiotic? Definitely yes. It was the tie-breaker. First time it was head, second time it was tails. Now, the third time will decide what is set for my destiny. the gravity pulled the coin back. I catch the coin and cover it on my left hand and close my eyes to pray. Childish? maybe. Idiotic? Definitely yes. I don’t know if I wanted it to be heads or tails. I wanted to summon the moon goddess. she is the only one who can give me the answers I sought. On the other hand, I haven’t heard anyone summoning the deity other than the legends. And last time I checked, nobody heard of them. They are myth or maybe they were true.
Esma’s pov “Hope this will work.” I prayed silently as lighting the final candle. My hands were literally trembling, my instincts were telling me to stop right there before it’s too late. Or maybe it’s already too late. I formed a circle with the salt large enough for me to sit inside with other things. There were total three circles. I was sitting inside the middle and speciously the largest one. I traced my finger along on the ground making the outline of a star and covered it with salt, lighting another candle in the middle of it. Here, now the main work starts. I opened the drawer and picked up the knife. Old school. I have already prepared the altar and all things but my fingers were quivering mess. I asked one of the warriors of Dumeny to fetch me the necessary items. After the day, he was suspicious and I know he must have told Dumeny about what I am up to. Calling upon a Goddess signif
