Jude stood in his tracks as he looked at the woman in shock, unable to believe her warm gestures, he looked behind him to see if there was someone else who was walking into the store or if he was the only one at the front of the entrance door.However, the woman shot him a warm smile, assuring him that he was the one she gestured to.He stepped into the store and the chill breeze coming from the well-positioned air condition welcomed him, drying off the sweat that had formed multiple beads on his forehead. The woman kept up her smile and asked him politely if he cared for any drink or just water.He was speechless at her question as that was the last thing he was expecting from her or anyone in that line due to his previous experience. Jude collected a bottle of water and gulped it as fast as he could. However, he could notice the managers and salespersons from the other store staring at them in amazement. They were mocking the woman for accepting him into her store, they thoug
Ava So this story just got really interesting and I decided to drop my two cents about Luna Reign. Lol.If I had known that Hermoine would be so good at doing what I tried to do all this while then I would have honestly treated her better or maybe the way I treated her pushed her to make this happen.Either ways I could not be happier that Reign was finally out of the picture. I did not need to put on any act as everyone already knew I was never a fan of Reign since I found out she was not Araya but an intruder that would not just go away.I watched the show at lunch content and picked the piece of Paper when everyone dispersed and read it's content contently."Don't bother looking for me," it read.How sweet.This was all the evidence I needed to present before the council of elders when a week was over to ensure the Alphas picked another Luna.All I had to do was prove that Reign had left willingly and she was not abducted or forced to leave.With this I could trust the Alphas to co
Ava Time with Astor was always one I looked forward to so I relaxed and allowed myself get lost in his strong hands."How are you," he asked with a boyish grin when he caught our breathes and laid apart."Good, very good." I really felt good for so many reasons."Nirson will be here soon so you might want to get all dressed up.""Sure," Not even my son was aware that Astor was my mate.When a knock rapped on thv door, we were already fully dressed and out from the inner room to the study."Come in," Astor called out while I remained seated with my eyes fixed on a magazine that had piqued my interest. My handsome award deserving son walked in with Hermoine trailing behind him shyly."Hi Mum," He greeted and I stood to wrap him in an embrace."Hi," Hermoine greeted shyly avoiding eye contact with me. It was no news that we never got along so her reaction was totally expected except that I was more than pleased with her so I drew her in for a hug immediately."Come here you too," she w
Zephyr I was definitely not having it like you already knew but worse still was Ava beginning to piss me off with her silly comments of how she told us to let Reign leave from the beginning."Have you checked the accounts?" Ava asked and her voice irritated me because I knew she was about to throw shades at my missing mate again."What about the accounts Ava?" I asked coldly refraining myself from responding to her very harshly."Oh you should check it because your pretty little mate is out there spending and living her life with the love of her life after stealing your joy and picking at all your souls for your information." Ava was whining and I ignored her busy with the work unfinished work I had sprawled out on my desk."Just wow, she bought a wig, just nice. I bet she is not interested in any of you recognizing her by chance," Ava laughed sarcastically and clapped her hands hilariously mocking my state.I did not want to bother myself with Ava's rant but what she said struck a c
ReignLost and alone I was able to hide myself in the hut for several days without being discovered.I noticed the fireplace was still warm the day I got there and after looking around, I observed the hut was occupied by a man. His scent on his clothes made Eliel excited. Was this some sort of a joke or what?I had just escaped death but I was quite sure that I did not die.I had wrapped myself in one of his jackets since that night was cold and his sweet smell had lulled me to sleep very comfortably.I busied myself with several activities since the hut seemed to have everything I needed within. I did not as much as step out of the hurt for about three days. The hut did not look abandoned which made me wonder what had made the person leave.Maybe he didn't leave willingly since his door was left open.A thought crept up my mind and I became self conscious. Whatever could make a male wolf leave his properly furnished house and flee was probably going to come for me soon.I had his cl
ReignI was sure the man standing in front of me was Zephyr, no I was not because he sounded different. "Do you not know me?" I asked hoping for a better response the second time."No I don't except the fact that you saved my life so I'm returning the favour." He spoke. He had a certain repulsive Aura about him but it pulled me closer to him."You are not Zephyr are you?" I asked when I was convinced the man I conversed with was really nothing like Zephyr asides his uncanny resemblance and his style of carrying his hair.He also had an aloofness in his stare as he threatened to penetrate my soul with his gaze."I am not Zephyr and you are intruding in my privacy," he was also not very gentlemanly in his speech or choice of words."I am Reign actually. I am sorry for intruding," I stared at the very clean sheets for a while."I was looking for where to stay and I found your door unlocked." I continued."Thank You for saving me." He just kept on staring at me without saying anything and

SethI blinked severally unable to speak as I contemplated the depths of her words and the possibility of her sacrifice.I observed her carefully but she looked very serious and the absence of a scent on her convince me beyond all reasonable doubts.I stood to my feet and fetched myself a glass of clean cold water from the fridge dispenser.I opened the fridge and poured out a glass of juice for her."Thank You," she said before sipping so elegantly from the glass.A time of comfortable silence passed between us and my mind ran wild on several thoughts."I don't know what to say right now." I started out looking for a good enough ground to express my gratitude to her but damn! I was really bad at being a proper gentleman."You don't have to say anything." She shrugged."You risked your life to save mine and you say I don't have to say anything to you about it?" I could not understand this female. I barely could remember what she said her name was."Yeah, it has nothing to do with you.
ReignIn all the stories told in Silver Crescent, the name Zephyr never went extinct.He had survived, he had lived through the pain and troubles and he had lived on the the tablets of our hearts."Zephyr! Stop running around," I scolded my little son.It had been three beautiful years and he really did substitute for my lost mate."Good thing you still have four mates to share your attention. How would you have managed with five?" Dante asked leaning on the door post.The bright sunlight illuminated his features."Hi," I said admiring him."When I look at him, he does grow up answering his name." Dante said and his voice caught Zephyr's attention."Dada!" He called out to Dante and ran towards him."Big boy!" Dante easily lifted Zephyr off the ground. "How's your day going?" He ruffled his hair."No! Hair! No!" Zephyr struggled in his grip and I laughed at the interaction between the two."Stop taunting my son," Axle joined us on Zephyr's room.I had initially thought naming him Zeph
"You will lose even more than you know it, the longer you stay here, the more time evades you. You mating pair is stronger than nations and will attract the wrath of more. Follow the voice within you for you are the light in the path you seek a bulb."This time their meaning was clear and I wasn't going to go down so easily without a fight.Then all of a sudden something else took over me and I stood up. I looked Chester straight in the eyes and said the words that came to my head."Oh goddess accept the soul I bring to you, my heart is sore and my spirit weak but this rogue has defiled your laws. Die!!!" I shouted and like an expired glass he exploded and shattered into several pieces.I felt weak as I rushed to Zephyr who was still bleeding out profusely.We already had company as everyone had found their way to my room at the sound."He can't die, let me save him." I pleaded with my mates who won't listen to me."Reign you've done enough, don't risk the future of the pack for my sa
ReignI knew something was wrong, I knew danger was close and if I didn't come out, I felt as though the person was going to bring down the entire building with fire to get to me because of the strict security so I decided to meet whoever myself.I had not intended to drag Zephyr along but he had insisted on coming out with me now I feared the danger he may be exposed to at Chester's hands."Chester let go of me!" I tried to protest and rescue myself from his grip but his hands were firm.He and Zephyr bore holes in each other shooting deadly glares.'come quickly, Chester is he---' I didn't finish my sentence when a blow hit me hard forcing me to move back several meters and land on my butt.This was why Axle and Dante had not recovered. The ritual was not over because no soul Sacrifice was offered."You will have no one's child but mine." Chester roared and I struggled to get on my feet."Reign!" Zephyr ran to my side from where he had equally been dealt a blow of his own from the m
Reign"Definitely we are not alone, there's a little man in there as well," Zephyr joked but I knew what I was sensing was different."What is it?" Seth asked studying me for a while."It's, it's gone. I just felt it for a moment but now it's gone" I waved it off as quickly as it had come and we walked back talking and laughing yet I kept looking back anticipating someone.I often related with Axle and Dante but I was the only one who could curb Axle, we had met the elders and they insisted that one of the rituals had been incomplete for such an anomaly to occur.The day we were going to announce I was having a baby came and my delivery date was just a few days away. In the meantime I worked with Hermoine as Beta and she was surprisingly not as dumb as I had envisaged.Nirson also worked hard and became more productive assisting Hermoine with most of the responsibilities.Everything was going smoothly save for Axle and Dante's growing conditions. It was like every day that past, the d
Reign Power left me but I didn't feel as weak as usual.Kudos to Seth, everyone knew I was pregnant, everyone sat beside me on the bed with Alexia and Nailah being the most dramatic."You need to lie down so Dr. Alberto can check you next, we don't want to ruin things for our little Alpha," Alexia teased."Or little Reign," I shot back."I think I'll take sides with Alexia this once. I really want you to have a boy" Nailah stabbed me straight in the heart taking sides with Alexia in my very before."Really Nailah," I feigned a heart break holding my chest and everyone was laughing including Hermione.She was awake and recuperating."The entire pack sure does want an Alpha, you can't exactly blame Nailah you know." Zephyr said proudly and the atmosphere was light.Everyone was happy, the bad energies had been dispelled but Axle's soul remained corrupt.Something no one could explain.The elders had told them that after the ritual of the joining gates and the soul offering, everything
ZephyrI stayed up all night, unease clawing at my chest as the clocked ticked my body drenched in cold sweat, I walked back and forth every now and then. I had to protect my mate, had to get to my brothers. Since she vanished into the flower I sensed something was off with my brothers, the connection with them had intensified then dulled and I was worried. As the tension continued to increase,a rumbling ache usurped the depth of my tummy. My heart continued beating, spreading malaise though my veins, I didn't know whether I wanted to sit down or remain standing! In this unyielding fit of distress, I tried to imagine how he would be faring on they would be faring on their own, but my muddled mind could only conjure up gruesome images, mortifying me the more.After a couple more minutes of frantic waiting, I walked to the stone hill in the forest. My sensed picked a distinct scent and I couldn't resist the hunch to follow it. As I moved deeper into the dense thicket, the smell intens
ReignJust as we got dressed to continue our search, I felt something call out to me. I looked around and Zephyr noticed my discomfort and commented."You seem to be looking for something,""Didn't we come out here to look for something in the first place?" I asked in a very cocky manner and he laughed realizing how stupid his question was."Right," he said and followed behind me as I followed the call on my soul and essence. I was so much more at ease so I could very easily pick the scent and follow my instincts to what I sought after. "There it is," I said when we got to the top of the hill we climbed.It was a yellow flower, beautiful, elegant and unique. The last time I had found it, it was purple but this color seemed to fit it very perfectly. The shape was different as well but I knew that was it."Really? That is what stressed us all along?" Zephyr saidIt looked like an ordinary flower so it had to call your attention before you could find it. Sometimes it was an actual plant
ReignWe had explored most of the forest but I was still yet to grasp a sight of the flower. I knew how the plant looked because I often used it back in Chester's pack to save the soldiers and wounded ones.There was a limit to the amount of energy I could push into a person to restore them without losing my own life so I had sought out other means to save more people."We've been going about forever, what exactly are you looking for?" Zephyr asked me, he was definitely not the type to go flower picking with a lady or treasure hunting so the unending search already greatly wearied him."Relax, it's a life plant so it doesn't have a definite form, shape or color" I said to him."You have got to be kidding me," he covered his face with both his hands and threw his head back. I watched his Adam's apple bob up and down like a simple pendulum as he spoke in that position unaware of the things he was doing to me."So how are we supposed to find it?" He asked before taking his hands off his
ReignIt was all a very dramatic and chaotic scene and what hurt me the most was that what I suspected and anticipated the most yet denied, turned out to be my very reality.I had trusted the enemy the most all along, I had taken all my secrets and findings to him Everytime.I had always let him in on my plans time and time again. Uncle Astor was the only one I had said goodbye to when I ran away. He had tried to convince me and claimed he was going to come get me back to the pack before I shut my link then.Little wonder Chester was already waiting for me out there. I regretted a lot of things, especially not listening to Dante every time he warned me against Uncle Astor."Come with me," Zephyr grabbed me wrist on the heated hospital ward and we headed for the door while Uncle Astor displayed.I shook my head, not refusing but I was weak, I could feel the energy sap right out of me. I did not even have the strength to speak.Before I could give a response, Zephyr scooped me off the f
