Alpha Zane's POV

Midnight Moon is buzzing with activity.

My pack members are pulling out all the stops to welcome their Luna as a queen and to shower her with plenty of love. Many already know her, her mating with Gorgio was widely reported in the werewolf live stream media and most discussed on social media.

Until now, I cannot believe that she was actually coming. Especially after Gorgio's outburst and threats. I had already prepared myself for a tough battle to win my Luna, maybe even petition the Council. With the King and Queen as witnesses, I would certainly win the case. And the consequences would be very unpleasant for all of us since everything would be widely noted in the press. Maybe even spiced up for the thrill or high sales.

So, when Alpha King Petric informed me two days after the failed meeting that Ariel had agreed to move to Midnight Moon, I couldn't believe my ears.

However, there are conditions attached to her arrival, which she will go through wi

    Alpha Zane's POV My heart pounds as I watch the jet coming closer. The emblem of the Alpha King's office is clearly visible on the fuselage. I smile, the man is sending his daughter to her mate in style, I wouldn't have done it any other way. I glanced at the decorations the women of the pack had put up. The path is lined with the most beautiful flowers and there is an arch of fresh lilies. Two men were laying a red carpet for her. All the best for the Luna of Midnight Moon. And when the pilot finally lands the plane and opens the door, she steps out. There she was, as stunning as I remembered her. Naturally, I visited her social media accounts and searched for information about her online. She had always kept a low profile until she was mated to Gorgio. Her F******k wall is full of pictures of the two of them together, during their joining and Luna ceremony, hand in hand during pack holidays, dancing with Gorgio and all sorts of intimate moments captured. In almost all of them, sh

    Alpha Zane's POVIt's heartwarming to see Midnight Moon accepting my mate right away.And Ariel seems to be having a great time. We stepped off the stage so the members could meet her in person. After all, she is their Luna and will be in direct contact with mostly the females and pups on a daily basis. But it strikes me how she can separate herself from me so easily. Don't get me wrong, she embraces the pack, tries to build a personal relationship with each one. But she is not warm and longing towards me. Mates have a natural urge to be close to each other and, as newly mated, I expect her to hang on to me all the time to assert her claim. I have seen that so often around me with friends and family. Like now. I look around to see where she has gone. And then I spot her with a group of women, talking about a project to increase business in the pack. This a great way for Luna to establish herself. She schedules an appointment to meet the women at the packh

    Alpha Zane's POV"We're going to war with them! What are these humans thinking?"My fist hits my desk hard, causing a crack in the wood. Everything on it falls to the floor, but I don't give a damn."I've been patient with them for too long. We chase them away, but they keep coming back. This ends now, we kill them all now". My face is twisted with rage. Eric has just informed me that he has caught two humans on our territory. They claimed to have lost their way after a picnic.But I damn well know they are lying. They are investigating massive gold deposits that run from neutral territory through Gorgio's pack to Midnight Moon. The humans want the gold to enrich themselves, nothing is more important to them than their own gain. Ignoring the warnings and reprimands of the border patrol, they continue to try their luck."Kensley, mobilize the warriors. Anyone who comes within a yard of our border will be slaughtered. It might stop after the first two deaths," I roar."We have a peace t

    A Third Party ... I deliberately sat behind the passenger seat.From this angle, I can't see much of her and I don't run the risk of our eyes colliding in the mirrors. Her mate is at the wheel while she sits next to him. Kensley is in the back seat next to me. But I can't escape her insanely addictive scent. It makes me drunk with lust, draws me to her, tempts me to taste the sweetness of her lips. I want to grab her and crush her against me until we become one body. But it's impossible, she already has two mates. And I will be damned if I share my mate with two more men. Nah, not me.However, something is off with her.She is attracted to me, I can tell by the way she looks at me. It's affection, maybe infatuation, like in human sports, but the bond I feel for her is not there. And when I heard Zane complaining about the same problem with her yesterday, I could well imagine it. But there is a difference.She simply feels nothing for Zane, no attachment

  • Luna On The Run!   Chapter 27 Something Is Wrong

    Beta Eric's POV We arrive at the mayor's office where Zane proudly introduces Ariel as his wife.It stings, but there's nothing I can do about it at the moment. I make sure I sit far away from her so I don't have to look in her direction. Zane and Kensley come down hard on the Mayor, reminding him of his responsibility to keep the fortune seekers out of Midnight Moon. The peace treaty is slammed down hard on the table and I see the man's Adam's apple bobbing several times. The poor man is probably terrified of the wolf beasts in front of him. Who can blame him? Zane is a walking killing machine right now, with his wolf in distress. But it is Ariel's involvement that is attracting the most attention.Unlike Zane and Kensley, she is calm as she enters the conversation. She points out to the Mayor the technicalities of the treaty and the possible consequences of human violations. Her arguments are convincing, the men are silent as she speaks.

    Beta Eric's POV "Eric, Kensley, in my office!"Zane is furious, his whole aura exudes it. Only Ariel seems numb to his mood. The drive back to the packhouse is in icy silence as she chats animatedly about anything and everything. But now that we have arrived, he can no longer contain his anger and summons me to his study along with Kensley. Ariel climbed the stairs to their flat, impervious to the tense atmosphere. She still waved after us, her eyes fixed on me. As the door slams shut behind us, Zane turns to me. His eyes spit fire and I see his claws erupt. His wolf, Claw, is on the verge and I know I have to be careful. There is nothing more dangerous than a jealous Alpha. "Eric, what is it between you and my mate? I notice that she likes to engage with you, values your views and comes alive when she looks at you," he snarls. "I want an honest answer. Is there something going on between you two?" I shake my head in denial b

    Still Beta Eric's POV As I walk out of Zane's office, I wonder how I'm going to handle all this.I had planned to stay far away from Ariel, never to be in the same room with her again. But of course, Kensley had to throw a spanner in the works again by confronting me with my sins. How on earth could I resist her? Her scent rises to my head and it takes an enormous amount of strength not to touch her. Both my wolf and me.And now the two of them expect me to forge a close bond with her, to win her trust to enable Zane to win her love. Well, I am not the right person for this job.My wolf will never allow me to betray Ariel, to pass on anything she tells me in confidence. And helping Zane win her over will be the hardest part. I foresee a fierce battle with Hunter in this regard. But Zane is my Alpha, my loyalty is to him, I would sacrifice my life for his happiness.And now that he loves Ariel, there is nothing I can do for Hunter, he must resign himself to his fate.'Bu

    Alpha Female Adlin Rain's POV Yay!Seeing my twin brother so happy was the greatest experience of my life. David Gorgio returned to Eclipse Howl a week ago and proudly presented Esmée Clarita as his mate and Luna to the pack. The mark on their necks was clearly visible, it's official. It was a grand celebration, the pack went wild at the sight of the happy, tanned couple who were clearly very much in love.And with that, the criticism of Princess Michaela's rejection was silenced. After my brother's departure on the night of our anniversary, many voiced their displeasure. The fact that the future Alpha had rejected a Lycan in favor of a half-human was unthinkable. For many, it was a missed opportunity to provide the next Alpha line with a strong bloodline; an Alpha King mix with Lycan traits would be formidable. Humans are supposed to be weak, so Esmée Clarita was opposed out of hand.But after seeing the couple together, the naysayers disappeared.To see

    Still Future Alpha David Gorgio's POV At high speed, I fly over the smooth water towards the yacht that keeps sailing.Goddess, let me find her right there, I need her so much in my life. I can't imagine her not bothering me with questions while I'm at work, not feeling the need to show me everything new she's bought. No, the princess could not fill my life. What possessed Selene to saddle me with an elitist mate? It's not my style at all, I don't like that kind of display. Rather an annoyance, never stylish. As I get closer to the yacht, I slow down.I am surprised that she has not heard the watercraft approaching and has come to take a look. Suddenly I am gripped by fear. No, it is not possible that she has hurt herself. That's not my girl. If she could endure years of rejection, she could endure anything. I reach the boat floating, jump onto the low platform and tie up the scooter.Then I climb the short

    Future Alpha David Gorgio's POV My head spins, my vision blurred as the impact of Adlin Rain's words hits me. Esmée Clarita is gone, gone, out of my reach. She will no longer swarm around me seeking my attention. I was so used to seeing her, it was natural for me to keep running into her and getting annoyed with her. And then complain to my mother to send her away for good, but of course, she would never do that. And now she's gone, really gone, and I don't know if she's ever coming back. This is hard, the sting of pain in my heart at this realization is unbearable. Never again her husky voice and vanilla scent, her hand on my arm when I refuse to offer her the attention she craves. "What do you mean she's gone? Why would she leave? She was waiting for Albert Zane and me to come down," I ask firmly. Threateningly, I walk towards my little sister, I am in no mood for nonsense right now. "Hey brothe

    Still Alpha Female Adlin Rain's POV Albert Zane and David Gorgio finally come down the stairs. Albert Zane's eyes are fixed on me and I smile back at him. All eyes are on us now, everyone knows his desire to be my mate. When he takes the last step, he walks towards me, his eyes softening. He pulls me in his arms, buries his face in my neck and breathes in my scent. Nothing. Nothing happens. The intoxicating scent that should be driving me mad, the sparks that should be ravaging my body and the attraction that should be urging me to mark him instantly, are missing.Reality rears its ugly head: we are not fated mates. I feel Albert Zane stiffen as the signs fail him too. But his arms around me do not slacken; on the contrary, he tightens them like a vice. "No! It can't be! You are mine!" he cries in pain.He sniffed my neck and shoulders again, but nothing changed. The result remains

    Alpha Female Adlin Rain's POVWhen I arrive at the high, wide staircase of the packhouse, my parents are already there waiting for me. My mother, Luna Ariel, sports a big smile on her face, while my father is watching me warily with slitted eyes. He is clearly uncomfortable, today may be the day he has to let his firstborn daughter go. No father takes this occasion lightly. I am the apple of his eye, and along with my twin brother, he has protected me from harm and discomfort all my life. Albert Zane too, of course, whenever he got the chance to be near me. So, I grew up very sheltered but today all that could change. The three men will have to let me go, or I might end up being Albert Zane's mate.

    Girlish giggles emanate from the room of Adlin Rain, daughter of Alpha Gorgio and Luna Ariel of Eclipse Howl. As Adlin Rain is the eldest of the daughters of the Alphas of Midnight Moon and Eclipse Howl, it was decided that she and Esmée Clarita's eighteenth birthday party would be held in Eclipse Howl. Esmée Clarita had a small celebration in her pack after she left for Eclipse Howl. Tonight will also be their first shift and possible mating. Naturally, unmated Alphas have come from far and wide, each dreaming of having one of the daughters of these prominent packs as a mate. The girls are immensely popular in the werewolf community, and their exploits have received much media attention in recent years. Everyone loves them, and their mischief in the clubs is dismissed as youthful impetuosity. Their clothes and make-up are imitated by many she-wolves and they have even designed their own perfume and clothing line. Their busi

    Luna Ariel's POV again I am lying next to my mate in a hammock on the back terrace, enjoying the peace.The pups are with the nannies, this is the time we set aside for each other, without them around. We really need it. All day long we are each busy with our own things and in the evening, we fall into bed next to each other dead tired. Now that we have two pups, I cannot spend as much time in Gorgio's office as I used to. I am a hands-on mum who likes to take care of them myself. The nannies are there to help as the two are very active. So Gorgio and I have agreed to set aside one day a week for us to be alone. On that day, I bathe the twins in the morning and hand them over to the nannies while Gorgio takes care of some urgent business that cannot take more than two hours. Then we are together. Sometimes we stay in the packhouse and relax but more often we go on picnics and swim in my favorite lake. A few times we go shopping at the mall

When I get there, I grab hold of the step and take a deep breath. But then I felt another one and I was sure the contractions had started. My eyes fly to my mate, who is now watching me closely."Why did you stop? You're so red, darling". He slowly gets up and comes over to me, still watching me closely. "It looks like the contractions have started, Gorgio. I feel cramps in my lower abdomen". He ran over to me, sank into the water and helped me up the steps. When he was out of the pool, he held me tightly as we walked to the deckchair. He took the thick bath towel and wrapped me in it. I embrace the warmth that now surrounds me.My mate helps me to lie down and holds my hand. His face is still relaxed. And then I felt the next one and I knew we were ready for the hospital room he had pr

It's like before, after a marvelous lovemaking, we renew our vows to each other. Only now there's a big belly between us, we can't get any closer than our twins allow us to. Having pups comes with a lot of adjustments. We've had to cut down on our sex drive, I run out of breath more quickly now."Have I proved my love for you well enough, my love?
