Thank you for waiting! I want to write more, but being weekend, it is hard to get more time to sit down and write. So I just completed this chapter to keep you all out of your misery. I hope this calms your heart! Don't forget to shower our new fated mates with gems and comments! 💗💗💗
LEXI. My whole body was shaking from pain rippling through my bones, but I tried my best not to falter and fell to the ground. I kept looking at Austin, who was cheering and smiling at me despite the tears on his face. I knew whatever fate held for us, I was lucky to be here—to be loved back by the man I had bared my whole soul to. “You can do it, baby! Call your wolf out!” “Aaaah!” I screamed my loudest, hoping it would drown out the pain, but it only intensified. I raised my head to the heavens, praying for my wolf to finally surface while telling Selene to forgive me if I chose to defy her fate because there was no way I would be letting go of Austin. The clouds moved, paving the way for the moon to shine brightly in the night sky, beaming its light over the canopy of the trees above me, and just when I thought it was already the answer to my words, the Goddess surprised me more. An intoxicating scent of leather mixed with the fresh and minty scent of mahogany trees swirle
LEXI. “Kiss me…” I said breathily, forgetting that we were still discussing something. “I thought you’d never ask.” He replied in a husky voice before his mouth crashed into mine. A soft moan escaped my lips as he kissed me hard. His hand cupped my pussy, and his skillful fingers massaged my already leaking folds while our mouths and tongues continued to fight for dominance. I still hadn’t had my fill of his kisses when he pulled away from me, making me growl in the process, only for whimpers to leave my lips when he sank into the ground and yanked my leg, anchoring it on his shoulder as his face dove directly onto my pussy. My hands went to his hair, gripping it tightly as my back pressed against the rough tree. “Oh, Goddess!” I moaned as I placed my other leg on his shoulders. He was carrying my weight while the tree supported my back. “Fuck, Lexi!” He groaned before he continued to lick me ruthlessly. His fingers were skillful, but they were nothing compared to how his tong
LEXI. “Austin…” My grip on his shoulders tightened as I continued to bounce up and down his lap while my mate’s hands were on my hips, harshly guiding me to meet his every stroke. Sweat formed on my forehead and everywhere in my body as another orgasm built up within me. I already had my release in this position, and I wanted Austin to come as well, but it seemed the sex god I was straddling had no intention of showering me with his seeds until I orgasmed more, which would make me too weak. I had no idea how long we’d been here. All I knew was that his mark was sitting proudly on my neck. It still stung, but it was only adding pleasure to my ecstasy. And I wanted nothing but to mark him back, but I had no idea how to make my fangs come out. It seemed Heaven was too exhausted or too horny to remember we hadn’t marked Austin yet. “Oh, Goddess!” I moaned wantonly as his cock hit my walls. He kept hitting my walls and g-spot, and I knew soon I would be trembling again. “You love
LEXI. -------------------------- My dear Lexi, When you read this letter, I am already gone, and hopefully, you are happily married or mated. I wish I could be there. I wish I could walk you down that aisle and meet the mate you chose so I could tell him to take good care of you. But I knew I couldn’t. I feel my days are over, and it will only be a matter of time before I go. I’m sorry, Lexi. I wish I could stay. I wish I could be stronger. I love you with all my heart, and I want to be there at every milestone of your life, but I can no longer find the strength to wake up each day. Please know that I tried my hardest every day for you. Ever since your father died, I have just lost my purpose in life. But please don’t think I loved you less. But without your father, I feel a big part of me has gone missing. He was my only steady rock, and I know you will not understand until you find your own rock—the only thing constant that keeps you going. I hope you find him. I hope he is
AUSTIN. The Gamma Camp started early, as usual, but Lexi didn’t come with me right away. I let her sleep. She was emotionally and physically drained. She just shifted, and females usually need more time to recuperate. Plus, the letter from her mother had kept us awake all night. In fact, I didn’t get to sleep at all. Lexi dozed off in my arms, and after I tucked her to bed, there were only a few minutes left before I had to wake up. But doing my task without any rest was nothing new. So I just remained by her side, watching as she softly purred in her sleep. I couldn’t believe we finally came to this part. It felt like it had been years since we decided to give this relationship a try, and after too much turbulence along the way, I honestly did not expect we would have something amazing like this waiting for us. Lexi was someone I didn’t know I needed. But she turned out to be everything my whole being wanted and lived for. It wasn’t an easy journey, especially for her, and pa
ALPHA JACE. Everything has been quiet so far. I had seen faces in the Council territory that I didn’t want to see, but so far, none of them had taken any steps to create any chaos. Maybe because they knew everyone was watching Dad, and I was sure half of the people observing the counting of votes were from Dad’s side. But, of course, it didn’t change the fact that I was still worried. Not just for Dad, but for everyone here. It was like waiting for a big blow to come. If they wanted to eradicate many packs, they needed to attack this territory tonight, as almost all the current Alphas were here. I stood in one corner, talking with Ledger, Cameron, Walker, Tyler, Alonso, and Kairo, while Amara was with Cassidy. All the current Alphas and Alpha Heirs in our circle were here except for Zach, who came at the last minute to vote but went home afterward. I was sure his parents forced him again. He didn’t even say “hi” to anyone. Cyrus also came and voted, but the moment Uncle Adan an
AUSTIN. It had been four days since Lexi, and I found out we were mates and three days since Uncle Jake was officially declared the new Council Head. His oath-taking will be in a few days, and the celebration will be on the same day at the Council territory. I had a camp to manage, so I would not be able to attend. But I tried not to feel bad about it. This was a great victory for all of us, and I wouldn’t let my inability to be part of the ceremony dampen my mood. Everything I ever wanted had fallen into place. I shouldn’t be complaining. Besides, Uncle promised that when it was my and Lexi’s union ceremony, he would make sure to attend it. Speaking of our union, Lexi and Mom didn’t waste time at all. Just a day after she shifted, they were already talking about the union. After consulting with Luna Amara, we had a schedule fixed, and it would be a week after the camp was over. It would be a simple ceremony to be attended by family and friends. This still felt surreal for me.
AUSTIN. I went to the border with the goal of letting Alpha Nicolo know Jace was not around and sending him on his way so I could enjoy dinner with my mate. But by a twist of fate, it seemed dinner had to be delayed. A part of me wanted to prolong the conversation as I honestly felt Nicolo was a good person, and Noelle reminded me of Catherine — timid, but when she started talking, it was hard to make her stop. But just when I thought I had no more reason to hold them here, something unexpected happened. It seemed to me that Noelle scented her mate. What were the odds that it was one of my men coming out of the office or one of those inside the cars? The color in Noelle’s face drained as she stepped backward until Nicolo’s chosen mate held her arms, making her halt in place. And if I thought that was it, I was wrong. Nicolo was growling lowly, his hands balled into tight fists, and his chest was heaving. His eyes dilated and they were fixated on the car that had just arrived.

ALPHA JACE.We let our wolves run around the territory, rounding the whole area, border to border. Zero should have been tired, but for some reason, he was not. Black and Atlas also did not show any signs.Maybe it was the adrenaline or the fact that our wolves knew that this would be the last moment we would rule this place, as tomorrow, we would pass on to our sons the responsibility of taking care of this territory.We had a good run. Most of the shifters out tonight who saw us asked permission to join us, and I couldn’t be more proud to share this run with them. The longer we ran, the more wolves ran with us. We all shared stories along the way. Our people recounted tales of our assistance and how we touched their lives.It was a bittersweet moment, but nevertheless, it made me proud. What more could an Alpha ask for before he retired? Having his people personally thank him for his service was an honor I didn’t know I needed. But I basked in it and let it warm my whole soul. After
GAMMA AUSTIN.I sat at the boulder on the highest point of the forest on this side of the territory, letting my eyes look at the beauty of the land that thrived under our reign.Tomorrow night, my son David will finally claim the fate that was rightfully his. He would step up as the new Gamma of the Black Shadow Pack, alongside Colton as the Alpha and Enzo as his Beta.This was a bittersweet moment. I was proud of my son, but I couldn’t help the sadness that I would be letting go of the rank I’d spent my whole life perfecting. No, I had no regrets. And no, I had no plans of prolonging my service. I was just being me — being emotional. I almost lost this rank because of one mistake. I almost lost it for David and for the generations after him, but I was glad that I was given a chance to do better. A chance I surely didn’t take for granted. I spent my whole service proving that Alpha Jace didn’t make a mistake in still putting his full trust in me even after that grave mistake. I s
LEXI.I held on to the kitchen counter as I listened to the family mindlink. I wanted to say many things, but my words failed me. Instead, I cried, letting out all the emotions that had shattered my heart for many months, ever since David didn’t shift on time. I felt the burden lift off my chest.All these years, I thought Austin and I did well raising our pups. Each of them had a different personality that they inherited from me and him. But all of them were disciplined, and they grew up with so much love that they knew how to give it out as well. I had everything I ever wanted. I shouldn’t be complaining.But then David didn’t shift. And I wanted to question why. I wanted to be upset because he didn’t deserve it, but I couldn’t. Because I was given a good life. I was given a good family and given a good pack. I felt questioning the Goddess about his wolf might be too much. So when he told everyone he had shifted, I didn’t know where to channel my gratitude. I kept crying on my ow
DAVID.I had been hit with a headache in the last hour, so I told Dad I was bailing out earlier than I should. After I took a shower, I said goodbye to the people in the locker room and headed out of the building. The sun was already setting, but there were still many people in the quadrangle. Dad was also there as he debriefed the warriors that would be sent off to the next Gamma Camp two days from now. Alexis was supposed to join them, but since he declined the post, only the warriors would be sent off this time. I walked away from the area without making any noise. For some reason, I didn’t feel good today. I barely get sick. Well, shifters barely get sick, so it was strange that I was having a headache. I doubted if it had something to do with the many sleepless nights recently, but then these were not the first nights I didn’t sleep at all.I was probably hungry as I missed lunch. I also exerted too much effort in training and sparring today, so it could be the reason my calv
LEXI.It was only six in the morning, but I had been awake for the last hour. Luna Amara, Catherine, and I went out early and threaded the forest to go to the spot where the Luna would always leave mangoes to the god of the wolves, Eros. After our pups decided that they would not break the bond between them and would still want David to become the next Gamma, I had been crying nonstop, but I tried to do it in the privacy of our room. I felt responsible. My actions almost twenty years ago resulted in my son’s pain. If I hadn’t been compulsive and too trusting, maybe I would not have let Randall get too close to me then. I know there should be no reason for regret because Randall turned out to be a wonderful person, but a part of me was dying every time I looked at my son.David, despite everything that had been going on lately, still exhibited the values Austin and I had taught him and his siblings over the years. And it made me so proud of him. He didn’t deserve this fate, but I neve

I tried not to show that I was affected, but it was getting harder, especially when Enzo got his wolf already. He was supposed to be the last one to shift among the three of us. According to the plan, after Enzo shifted, we should be preparing to take over the pack.But without a wolf, David would not be deemed capable as my Gamma. Our parents thought this was something beyond our control already and that we should still push for my Alpha ceremony together with my rank wolves. This time, without David.But I refused
18 YEARS AFTERDavid - 19 years old Colton - 19 years old Enzo - 17 years old (turning 18 in a few days)-----------------DAVID's POV (AUSTIN AND LEXI’S PUP)I sat on top of the boulder, overlooking the meadows in this territory, trying to find peace in my heart. But no matter where I looked or what I thought of, nothing could change reality. I was still wolf-less. I was already nineteen. For a year, I had been waiting for my wolf.Enzo shifted last night. He was the youngest, and the plan was that as soon as he shifted, Colton, he, and I would begin to prepare for our ranked ceremonies. Colton was ready to be the next Alpha, and so was Enzo as his Beta. I was ready, too. I was ready to take over the Gamma position from my father, but without a wolf, it was impossible to take over. I closed my eyes as I recalled the conversation we had with Dad, Alpha Jace, and Beta Tyler. They would stay in position a bit longer, waiting for my wolf to come out. But they had already decided tha
LEXI.I was standing in the middle of the quadrangle, watching as Austin went around the area to check on his men and let them know he was about to leave for the day. I was craving grilled food, so we would drive to a grill place near the academy, and I was just waiting for him to finish what he needed to do first. “Lexi…” A sweet voice rang in my ears, and a smile immediately tugged at my mouth. I was sure she and Randall had received the mail that Marshall personally dropped at their home, as they lived near the training building. I turned around, holding my big stomach, and came face-to-face with the very pregnant Marcia. Ours was our honeymoon baby made in Orleans, while theirs was weeks older than ours, conceived on the night of their marking. “Hey there, beautiful,” I greeted her, and my eyes shifted to Randall, who bowed his head toward me in respect before he moved along and went to the group of warriors that were resting in the corner. “Back at you, sexy mama!” She giggle
