last update Last Updated: 2024-10-29 19:42:56

Alpha Gorgio's POV

With Ariel in my arms, I stand at Eclipse Howl's airstrip to receive the Council's investigators.

Much to my regret, my father-in-law has withdrawn, feeling that his involvement would be a conflict of interest. Although he has pledged to remain neutral in Alpha Zane's complaint, he fears that some will point the finger at him if the outcome is to the detriment of the plaintiff.

Three Alphas and an emissary from King Jasper have just landed in the kingdom's private jet.

"Alphas, welcome to Eclipse Howl. We have been expecting you. I am Alpha Gorgio and this is my mate Ariel," I say, greeting the group. We mostly know each other from the corridors but have never spoken face to face. They are not my friends and have no other relationship with me.

No problem, I know this case will turn out in my favor. My Luna is with me and that is all I want. To emphasize my point, I pull Ariel closer and bury my face in her neck, where my mark is. The gesture is not lo

    Luna Ariel's POVI can feel Gorgio's pain in our mate bond. He is distraught, but for some reason, he is keeping it in check. I can feel his iron self-control not to explode into a rage. It almost makes me gasp for air, my chest tightening with tension.I snuggle up against him as we fly to Midnight Moon in the Royal Jet.Jace, Alvin and several top warriors have come along, ready to intervene in any misstep by Alpha Zane. Warriors from my father, the Alpha King and the Council are also en route. This seems like a war operation, but I am grateful for it, as it gives Gorgio some reassurance that I will be safe in the other pack."My love, do not worry. I know what to do when I meet the Alpha. There is nothing in the pack that might distract me," I whisper against his neck. His warmth increases as we get closer and his arms are like a vise around me. "Just know that I love you, my Luna. We made an oath, you promised never to leave me. It would kill me if you did," he whis

    Luna Ariel's POV still "No! I will never accept your rejection, Ariel. You didn't even give me a fair chance".Alpha Zane's sweet demeanor has now given way to intense anger. I can feel it vibrating down my spine. His parents look worried as their son turns blood-red. "Son, calm down. We can still talk to her, bring her to her senses. But then peace will have to return here," his father tries to steady him. His mother runs to him and strokes his back. But it seems to have little effect, probably because he has a mate now and only the mate bond can soothe him. But I have no intention of helping him with that. "Luna, Alpha Zane is right. You have made no effort to see if this triangle mating can succeed. You and Alpha Gorgio were against it from the start, which is not unusual in our werewolf community. Quite a few Alphas have more than one mate or share one." The older man shakes his head in disapproval. "Ariel,

    Still Luna Ariel's POV I immediately burst into tears and cling to Xander in relief as he tries to decapitate Alpha Michael. I can feel his strength against me and now that he's angry, it's doubled.Feeling my hot tears on his chest, his anger melts and he stops in his tracks. His claws circle around me instead. My tears have always been his weakness and even now he cannot resist them. "Baby girl, why are you sad? We are able to wipe Midnight Moon from the map and our problems are solved with one sigh. This group of mutts is no big deal," he soothes me. But I shake my head, there is no need to drag innocent people into this."Alpha Gorgio, subdue your wolf. We are seriously handling this in a civilized manner now," Sir Walter chides. Xander immediately retreats to the Lycan's authority and Gorgio's eyes turn heavenly blue again. But I won't let him go, right now I need his warmth the most to stay sane."Alpha Michael's offer is plausible. We must not lo

    Once again Luna Ariel's POVAfter I toured the room, I decided to improve my mood by taking a bath. The bathroom is very luxurious, it has a large bathtub with a Jacuzzi and there are some nice scents on a shelf.I walk into the living room and, as the Alpha had indicated, there is indeed a suitcase. When I opened it, I saw a number of jeans in different colors, loose blouses, scarves and two evening dresses. I notice that there are no shorts or open tops among them, and the dresses have proper long sleeves and a decent cut, nothing revealing. Not that I have a problem with that, but the choice is striking.I wonder if the Beta arranged this himself or if he did it at Alpha Zane's behest. With a sigh, I pick up the case and carry it to the bedroom, where I place it on the sofa. There is no way I am going to unpack, I have no intention of staying here too long. Three months at the most, and not a day more, but sooner if possible. Being so far away from Gorgio is not good

    Again Luna Ariel's POVThe Alpha pulls out a chair for me and I take a seat in front of the food on display.It smells delicious, though not exactly what I'm used to. When he lifts the lid, I see black bean rice with okra, tomato, cucumber and some other foreign vegetables. Another tray contained roast chicken and pork, mushrooms and a garlic sauce. There were also two carafes of orange and lemon juice. "That's a lot, Alpha. And it certainly smells good."He takes a plate and puts some of the rice and vegetables on it for me. "Eat as much as you like. I am a healthy eater and the servants always bring me plenty. Later they will come with some tropical fruits". Having served himself, he picks up his fork and knife. "The cook moved here from a pack in South America when he found his mate. His mate is from our pack, but she did not want to move because the man's pack was not really developed. She didn't want to miss out on the luxury," he explains. " Hence o

  • Luna On The Run!   Chapter 65 Hard Talk

    Luna Ariel's POV stillThe past weeks were great.Zane is such a great host, he knows how to distract me from the circumstances that brought me to Midnight Moon in the first place. I was able to persuade him to postpone the Luna ceremony until Gorgio had come to terms with the situation. It seems unjust that he has no say in matters concerning me while we are still officially mates. I have decided to give my relationship with Zane a fair chance. His claim that Gorgio has complete control over me to the extent that I dare not make decisions for myself still sticks with me. Zane is less possessive, though he cares about my well-being. He always asks my opinion before making a decision that affects me, takes several hours out of his day to be with me, and we often have long conversations about the Council and pack matters.I notice that he does not tread on the ground about our future together. He did tell me that he had suggested to Gorgio that we build a new packhouse on

    Clarita's POVIt had been weeks since I had heard from Zane.He had promised to contact me as soon as he got his affairs in order. All those words about never letting me go and making arrangements with me. At last, I had faith again that my life was going to get back on track and that happiness was smiling back at me. But I was betrayed, just like Matt, he dumped me after a few nice lines. Am I so easily taken, or am I just hopelessly naive? I desperately need someone to talk to. Ariel, I haven't seen for a couple of days. Maybe someone here knows where I can find her. I head for the kitchen, where I know the Omegas often gather to gossip. Serena, a kitchen assistant, is there chopping ingredients. We have met a few times and she seems like a nice person."Serena, have you seen the Luna? I want to talk to her, but for some reason I have lost touch with her". The girl looks up from her work. When she recognized me, she smiled."Miss. Luna does not live in Eclipse Howl fo

Waiting expectantly, we looked at the doctor, who looked at his equipment and then back at me. "Hmmm." He makes that sound for the umpteenth time and it drives my nerves crazy. I wish the man would finally say something about my condition and take me out of limbo. And just then he notices my impatience as he checks my blood pressure again. "Miss, one thing is certain. You're pregnant. Almost a month".My heart skips a beat, blood rushes to my head. "Pregnant? Are you sure, Doctor?" I whisper. I can't believe this. All these years with Matt and I haven't been able to get pregnant. And here I am, spending a night with a man I'll probably never see again, and it happens. "A baby? We're having a baby at the packhouse? Moon Goddess, that's great". Serene exults, clearly th

    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

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. Albert Zane.He is my best male friend, always concerned about what I am doing, my great advisor in the business I have set up with Esmée Clarita. He is madly in love with me, and if I had agreed, we would have been mated by now. But I don't se

    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?
