Erin's POV

On my way to the door, something pricks my arms.  

In reflex, I wrapped my fingers around the culprit and found that it was a needle. I held it up for inspection.   The remaining fluid gushed out of its hole to trickle down its slim metallic body.  

Then my eyes switched from the needle to the man who sank it into my flesh, growing wide in disbelief. 

I never would have thought he would resort to this. 

Immediately I felt my body growing faint. My knees started buckling, and my body keeled over.

Alaric’s arms caught me just as I was about to drop on the floor and brought me to lie on our bed. 

 “What did you do?” I asked before I passed out. 

When I came through, I found Emma sitting on the sofa at the foot of the bed. 

Instantly, I remembered what happened,  and my mouth tightened. Alaric injected me with Wolfsbane. I was not aware that Dr. M

    Erin's POVThe mere thought of his name pissed me off. Gavyn... I hissed his name like he was some errant fly that had escaped my swatter time and again. He had been a pest that had grown out of bounds and had become uncontrollable in time. How dare he set his sight on my turf? I gnashed my teeth. My hands clenched into fists as my thoughts ran wild about how to crush Gavyn with my bare hands. He and Lyla had taunted the people and the land under Crescent Moon State enough. It is high time someone dealt them with their just retribution. I looked at the chaos around me. My heart is twisting in raging pain. I worry about how Ben and the others fared under his tyrannical control. Gavyn is a Warlock whose temperament resembles that of a savage or worse!“This madness had to stop now. Otherwise the peace our forefathers fought hard for will be for naught.” I declared, glancing to the side to face Alaric and surprised to see him watching me intently, distracting me from my though

    Erin’s POVRED STONE PACK. I did not think I would step foot in this place again. It felt surreal to be standing in its soil once more, looking at familiar places and things reminding me of the past. We came to the heart of the territory and walked past a small patch of ground with an old tree. I used to play under this tree when I was a child, and when I became old enough to understand things, this tree served as my hiding place from the rest of the world. Its sturdy trunk became my confidant. Looking around me, I saw other familiar places - the training ground -where my father forbade me to step foot on because it broke our mother’s heart seeing Lyla getting weak every day while I grew stronger in contrast. Then up ahead, I saw the silhouette of our packhouse, where I used to serve as a maid in my own household. It reminded me of the dark basement where I spend my nights alone and inside a cage for animals. My eyes misted in remembrance, and my heart ached like it was close

    Erin’s POV“We are at your service, Luna Erin,” Boris said. He laid his right hand over his chest, and his head bowed as a sign of respect. The men with him did the same. They all greeted me and Alaric with respect. A first in my recollection. As far as my father Alpha’s pack is concerned, I was a nobody and therefore not worthy of high esteem and recognition.It is a little daunting to see the change in their countenance, but humbling, too. It made me realize the pivotal role my mate and I would play in their lives. Nodding my head in response to Boris, my glance swept over a dozen or so wolves who did not join Gavyn in his lunatic quest for Alphadom and felt a sudden surge of tenderness in my heart. It was unexpected. “Thank you,” I said to everyone, looking each of them in the eye until finally, my gaze landed on Boris. Gone was the shame and regret I gleaned from him before. All I saw was deep respect and loyalty. Our gazes met and held. I poured out all my gratitude to

    Erin's POVWhat is known to be Gavyn’s lair is not that far. The trip to Gavyn's sanctuary actually took us thirty minutes or so in our wolf state.I was dumbfounded when Gamma Alexander finally gave the order to stop.“We are here.” Alaric and I looked at each other before my eyes quickly took in the house and the surrounding area. It is actually located on a hilltop, which still forms part of the Red Stone Pack territory. “Can you tell me anything about Gavyn? Is he born a pure Warlock?’ I turned around and asked Alexander while we tackled the rocky path. Given that I saw him shift to a werewolf, I can not help but think that Gavyn has werewolf genes in his blood, too. It is not uncommon. Werewolves could be mated to anyone, but those cross-breed matings have their own ups and downs. “None that I know of. He was an orphan when Fabian Gray took him in.” Alaric supplied, and I nodded. The climb proved difficult. It was tricky to climb between rocks and a craggy path. It con

    Alaric’s POVMy eyes widened in shock when I saw my mate crumpled in pain. A trail of liquid the color of dark red gushed out of her sacred triangle leaving a path down her milky white legs.In no time, I hoisted her up in my arms, repeatedly whispering words of comfort to her ears.“She passed out.” Gamma Alexander told me. It is as I have feared. Erin fell unconscious in my arms. Fear like I never knew before assailed me. I was scared stiff as I stared blankly at Erin’s pale face. Her lips looked coarse and dehydrated, its skin peeling off. Then, she started thrashing in my arms. Her brows furrowed like she was in so much pain. I held on to her firmly. Afraid to drop her on the ground. Gamma Alexander held out his palm to show me something that had escaped my attention earlier. It was an injectable, much like the one I had taken from Lyla’s lab, but the remaining liquid inside looked bluish in color. The thrashing continued as her face became flushed. From her almost deat

    Emma’s POVAfter dropping Cirala off to be with his Alpha father, I walked out of the operating room to find Beth and Rose sitting by the rows of chairs intended for waiting visitors. Accompanying them were Steven, Anton, and the others. They all looked tired and fretful, like everyone else. We did not get enough rest and sleep in the last few days. They rose promptly to their feet anxiously awaiting news after seeing me emerging from the operating room.“How is our Luna?” Steven, our elder, asked when I reached them.“Has our Luna woken up?” Anton asked next.The others, especially Beth and Rose, were hanging on their words and were all eagerly awaiting an update.My gaze encompassed them all before landing on Elder Steven and Pack Secretary Anton. My heart felt heavy, hating to be the bearer of bad news. “She lost the baby,” I told everyone and saw their shoulders sagging collectively in regret.A quiet descended upon us. Some were surprised to know that Luna was with a pup w

    Alaric’s POV“Erin love, please do not crack jokes like that. You are making me worry.” I told her when she tried to clamber out of bed to rush to Boris’s side, who was standing shell-shocked behind an equally shocked Emma.“I am not joking, and will you please stop with this love nonsense? How did I become your love? I don’t even know you!” Erin screeched in obvious displeasure.We froze on the spot when she flew into a rage, but my eyes were alert, watching her every move. My gut twisted, and when I looked to the side, I met Emma’s understanding gaze, which made me feel worse. This is the first time Erin used that tone on me. We may argue, but she would not address me using that tone. Then, I became the subject of her frosty glares as she warned, “Don’t call me love. It gives me the creeps. You do not have the right to call me that. We are not mates.” She growled, shuddering. Her gaze mirrored the disgust in her voice, probably at the idea that I was her mate. Her sha

    Alaric’s POV“Come.” I beckoned Emma to follow me as I waded through the narrow hallway to later arrive at the elevator bay. I pressed the down button, and when the car opened, we got in. Cirala's head turned around as he took in his new surroundings. He wiggled in my arms and lifted his little hand to reach the overhead light. When the elevator door opened on the first floor, we stepped out. We went through a series of maze-like hallways, passing the lobby where people who recognized me as their Alpha nodded in my direction until we reached the entrance to the emergency room. We found Dr. Martin inside. She came ahead of us and greeted us at the door to report on our patients’ progress. “All the patients are still under observation. If we find that they do not exhibit episodes like the Beta and the Gamma until tomorrow, then they are free to go.”“What do you mean?” My brows knotted because I was not fully aware of the situation with my Beta and Gamma until now. I let Emma ha

    Erin’s POV How do you recover from the death of a loved one? One who had been an integral part of you and who had greatly influenced what you had become? How do you cope with the loss, at the gaping hole they left in your heart? They say that for werewolves, losing a mate means eventual death. I never fully understood it until now. I scattered the ashes in the air and saw specks mingled with the wind. They danced together, intertwined like some old lovers until that far beyond. While I watched them go, I murmured in the air, hoping it would reach the ears of my loved one. “Luna, it is time to go.” I turned around and met Boris’ shadowed face. We nodded at each other before my gaze locked with my mate. We do not need any words between us. One look from him is all it takes to calm the storm within me. “I love you.” He mouthed. His words were enough to puncture the dam in my eyes and it burst. In quick strides, Alaric reached my side. He wrapped my trembling body in his arms as

    Alaric’s POVThrough the help of Fabian Gray, we unbound the spell cast on Lyla. A cloud of smoke appeared, and out came Lyla, who at first looked disoriented upon seeing herself surrounded by too many people. We were inside the courtroom. Alpha Douglas, as head of the council, was presiding over Lyla's trial. There was a general look of amazement, and everyone seemed to hold their breath when Fabian Gray started reversing his spell. Fabian's movements were precise and meticulous. It was no wonder he was the best of his kind and the undisputed Warlock chief. My gaze scanned the whole room until it landed at the back of the courtroom where Luna Bella and Erin were seated. Luna Bella insisted on witnessing the trial. Erin came in support of her mother. I guess it would be hard to tear Luna Bella at bay. Lyla is her daughter, too. After Fabian broke and retracted the spell, Lyla appeared before us in her human form. She looked around, surprised to see the Alphas surrounding her.

    Alaric’s POVI shouldn’t have walked away from her. I shouldn't have let my emotions get out of hand. It was just that the mere mention of my mother reminded me so much about Alpha Leo’s crimes against my family. Compounded by her sister’s crimes and her mother’s demands, I could not hold back my temper and snapped at her. I looked back in remorse to where I last saw her, but Erin was already gone. She has probably gone inside the house. Taking my frustrations out on her is uncalled for. Alpha Leo and Lyla's actions are their own. Erin has nothing to do with it. Having the same family name does not make one responsible for the other member's mistakes.Shedding off my human form, I started galloping into the forest. I let the speed and the wind clear my head as I put distance between me and my mate. I stopped at the lake Erin, and I frequented panting. For a while, I looked at my reflection in the water. Dark, guilty eyes stared back at me. I snarled my frustratation. I loo

    The following morning saw us atop the highest mountain lining the border of Red Stone and Black Water territory. Luna Bella chose this spot specifically. “I want to have a vantage view of our territory.” She explained when she requested that we bring her to this place. We arrived here before dawn. Now, the skies that were previously covered in darkness slowly lighten up as the first light appears. The sun is breaking. I watched Luna Bella contemplating in silence. Her shoulders hunched like she carried the weight of the world on them. “Even in death, your father cheated me.” I knew what she meant. Alpha Leo died ahead of her, thus, leaving her behind. Sometimes, I wonder, who hurts more: the one who left or the one left behind?Alaric and I stood a little distance from my mother to give a quiet moment with her thoughts. But she let her nurse, Dana, and personal slave Beth flank her small frame as she looked beyond the mountain range. The wind slapped against our faces as

    The next few days are hectic. Mother and I went back to the Red Stone Pack to meet with Gamma Alexander to discuss pack affairs and to keep tabs on what has happened since Lyla and Gavyn took the reign of the Alphaship. Upon Gavyn’s death, the remaining pack officials elected Gamma Alexander to handle its affairs temporarily.With my mother sick, Lyla missing, and me in the hospital, the position of Alpha was left vacant.“Here are the books detailing the income and the expenses these past months.” Gamma Alexander showed us an updated version of Red Stone's cash position. In addition, he gave us a rundown of everything that has happened since Alpha Leo's death. Mother had no concern over that. She was impatient to know one thing, and so did I. “Where are Alpha Leo’s ashes? I did not give him my proper respects.” Mother’s voice almost broke in the end. She was trying to hold back her tears, and I knew she had never mourned his death yet. Or maybe, that is our way of coping. Gri

    “Erin Acklen…” The sound of someone calling my name woke me up.Still cloaked in a sleepy daze, I pried open my eyes only to shut them close immediately when bright lights glared at me. “It hurts,” I complained to the voice, ignoring whoever it was calling me and letting sleep take over, only to be roused, yet again, by that same mysterious voice to wake up. Again, I ignored it, but it persisted. It kept badgering me until I was too irritated by the constant harping. Super annoyed with whoever has the gall to disturb my sleep, I opened my eyes and angrily bolted out of bed. Even with my disorganized thoughts, I was surprised to find out I was not inside our room back in Black Water Pack but somewhere else.Chin jutted forward, I scanned the area around me before my head tilted down. It was then that I realized I was in the middle of what looked like a forest, and the bed from which I rose earlier was a bed of moss-green grass. It felt ticklish under my bare feet. “Where am I?

    It took Alaric not more than fifteen minutes to process my discharge slip and pay my hospital bills. Then, Alaric returned to tell me we were ready to go. I was excited to leave. In the past weeks, I was not allowed to leave the confines of this hospital, nor was I allowed to walk outside. Alaric posted bodyguards everywhere I turned, annoying me no end. It was a refreshing change to see the bodyguards’ unmissed presence. “Let’s go?” He asked, eyes drifting to the bag beside me on the sofa. In his absence, I collected all my stuff lying around to deposit them inside a travel bag I saw on the bottom of the cabinet.I stood and took the bag, but he knocked my hand off. “Just lead the way, ma’am.” He said playfully, making me laugh so hard. We were silent inside the elevator. We did not speak, but the silence was not a strained one.“Stay here,” Alaric instructed, placing the bag beside me on the floor after submitting to a security check and exiting the lobby. I did not argu

    “Luna.” Ben struggled to get up from his hospital bed. I saw the pride and respect reflected in his eyes when he saw me. How do I know it was him? I don’t know. I just do. When I started to take in Alaric’s word and accepted the idea that I am his Luna, things began to clear in my head. My memory still eluded me, but maybe it was the acceptance that made me see things in perspective. My head turned to the side to see the other bed’s occupant. He was still asleep, but from what I gathered earlier, it was safe to presume he was Blake, the pack’s gamma. Both Ben and Blake were muscular like their Alpha, and I am quite sure they could hold their own on the battlefield, as good as Alaric. I still don’t remember anything about them, but there was a sense of rightness in seeing them. “Ben.” I drew close to his bed and reached for his hand. Ben’s eyes twinkled when our hands clasped, but later, it was fixed somewhere behind me. I do not have to make a wild guess to know he was

    Erin’s POVIt was the sweetest kiss!My eyes snapped open when I realized what I was thinking. It was like crashing back down to earth after a spine-tingling explosive kiss.“W-what did you do that for?” I stammered when Alpha Alaric released my lips, only to venture south and nuzzle my neck. He darted out his tongue, sending glorious tingles of sensation that spread out all over my body. What is happening to me? Desire shoots up to every corner of my being. Wide-eyed, I stared at him. “This can not be!” I pushed him hard, but he would not budge. He pressed his body against mine, effectively trapping me to the wall. And his stare. Gosh! Why does it make me weak? “Do you understand what I was trying to tell you?” His muffled voice carried its weight to my ears, causing me to shiver involuntarily at the promise in them. I hate it! I hate how my body melted so naturally in his arms. “Stop!” I cried before I pressed both palms to his chest and shoved him off of me. I app
