We were there for a while before we pulled out. That moment had to be one of the best in my entire life! Romance? I vowed against it since the experience with Adrien but guess who's finished now?'This was how it started then, it will happen again and again: that thing you have been trying to avoid.' I heard something speak in my head and my countenance switched all of a sudden. I opened the car door and got out of the car."Where are you heading to?" He asked and I replied causally. "I need fresh air." As expected even though not wished, he alighted from the car too and came after me as I walked away."Where are you heading to, Mira?" He asked again, like he did not hear my response the first time. "Your ears are functioning properly, Jordan! You heard me the first time." I asserted, boning my face totally. Who would not be surprised and concerned by the sudden change in attitude?Suddenly, he grabbed me by the arm and pulled me around, towards him. "What is the issue?" He asked,
A few days had passed again and I was yet to get in touch with Jordan since that day at annatoria. Everything that had happened with us both kept emerging in my head during my idle times. The day for the welcome party my parents planned for me had arrive already. All pack members within the territory were to attend, some people from other countries would be attending as well.According to Maddie, my father also sent out a few invites to some Alphas from other packs which made my frown on the idea after knowing what that means."They are all young Alphas but I don't have their full details." Madison said."It's not what I am thinking, is it?" I let out trying to doubt what was going through my head. "How..could I possibly know what you are..thinking mylady?""Is he not trying to look for an Alpha suitor for me, isn't he?" I asked plainly, not intending to beat around the bush. "Well, it does seem like that to me also." She responded calmly, agreeing to my thoughts.The moment we con
The moment I saw that name, my heart skipped a bit. He was invited? That asshole who almost ruined my life was invited to my own welcome party in my own pack? I looked up, summoning courage. I was under my father's covering so there was nothing he could do.I looked in the direction where those Alphas were seated so I could spot him and I did. Our eyes literally met. 'Nice one.' I said in my head. What was he thinking of when he got the invite? Maybe he did not know it was me?Or probably his assistant did not give him the full details? Well he had no idea my father was the Alpha of the Silver Claw pack but he knew I was from there, despite that this dude had the audacity to even come down to this pack?I was so pissed off and then I heard murmurs rising amongst the crowd. Immediately, I let go of whatever i was feeling at that moment and just wanted to stick to why I was on the podium with my welcoming speech."Alpha Adrien...I celebrate you for coming here today." I decided to sa
I trailed down my memory to the time I met Karima and then, Jordan. My heart skipped a beat again. This feeling was not a natural one and something needed to be done about it. Of all things, I did not think I was ready to love anyone or give them my all.All of a sudden, I felt something cold drop on my arm. "Hm?" I checked my arm to see that it was water then I lifted my eyes up to the skies. Despite the fact that it was dark already, I could still see the dark clouds. Following me knowing what a thunder sound is, a big sign that it was going to rain soon.What to do now? I left home without any survival plans, and I was very far from home already. Rain started to fall in no time and I ran somewhere into a shade, a relaxation shade that was dedicated to the estate residents. I was still within the pack, actually but the human race was mixed with us in this part of the pack. But it was quite far from the Royal pack house.I stood here for a while but the rain got heavier. It was so
My father was lying in the sick bed for days, still recovering. His treatments were made confidential while none of the council of elders knew about it. My mother and Beta Harold the third, my father's close friend and subordinate, were insistent on it. Apparently, that was what my father had instructed.That morning, I was just getting out of bed and trying to get myself together. It was one out of the few days of waking up feeling guilty and sorrowful. I was feeling quite better that morning but not fully.Then I got out of bed and headed into the washroom to brush my teeth and wash my face. Skincare? I totally lost interest in them all. The moment I stepped out, my mother barged in gently and to some extent, I was startled."Mum! What's the issue?" I asked as I removed the face towel that I had hung around my neck. "Morning to you too, daughter." She replied hurriedly as she closed the door and came to where I was standing. From the look of it, she was quite troubled."What happ
I had gotten the key to one of our numerous cars from the valet, then I headed to Forever Penthouse. It was quite far away from the house so it took me a while before I eventually got there.I so much had this assurance in the vision I had about the location he was but when I got to the entrance of the penthouse, doubt crept into my heart. What if I did not meet him there? What would be my fate then?I decided to push through with it since I was there already. I walked into the lobby and looked around, it was exactly the same thing I saw in that vision then I walked up to the receptionists to request access to the penthouse but I was denied it."Why? I just said it's so urgent that I really need to see the person now." I hammered on my words again but all the lady I spoke to did was to give me this pitiful expression, accompanying it with a 'sorry'.A simple apology would not cut it, right? What should be my fate then? Go back to the pack house without Jordan after knowing fully well
My heart kept racing as the clock ticked closer to midnight. Soon it would be 12 AM, and if I didn’t shift this time, I’d be in serious trouble. It was that time of year again – the Blood Moon, when the lunar eclipse happens, and every werewolf around the world shifts.But I was terrified. I had never met my wolf, not even once, despite all these years.Sitting on the bed, I stared into the full-length mirror across from me. My hands gripped the sheets as a flood of thoughts filled my mind.What if I don’t shift again? What if it’s like last time? Will I be stuck like this forever?These thoughts weighed me down. We were reaching a breaking point, and I knew my mate would throw me out if I failed to shift. I was never really accepted as his wife or Luna, but I didn’t think I could bear it if that happened now.I knew I was just an Omega, but I prayed earnestly to the moon goddess."Please, just this once, let it happen. I want to have a child," I prayed. For me to shift and have a chi
At exactly midnight, the Seventh Heritage Pack's howls filled the air as people began shifting into their wolf forms. Even those who had never shifted before were transforming for the first time, but I was still standing there, human like.Tears welled up in my eyes as my hope slowly faded. I looked away from the wolves and turned my gaze to my mate. He sat in the place of honor with his parents, the former Alpha and Luna, alongside with the council of elders—the highest authorities in the pack.If I were the Luna, I would have been sitting beside Adrien. But Claire had specifically ordered that I sit among the regular pack members, though she did place me in the front row to give me some dignity.I noticed Adrien looking at me too, but I couldn’t tell if he felt sad for me or if he was just indifferent.As the night went on, I saw people pointing at me and whispering things that were clearly meant to mock me.The worst part was that my tears wouldn’t even fall. They were stuck in my

I heard something speak in my head and my countenance switched all of a sudden. I opened the car door and got out of the car."Where are you heading to?" He asked and I replied causally. "I need fresh air." As expected even though not wished, he alighted from the car too and came after me as I walked away."Where are you heading to, Mira?" He asked again, like he did not hear my response the first time. "Your ears are functioning properly, Jordan! You heard me the first time." I asserted, boning my face totally. Who would not be surprised and concerned by the sudden change in attitude?Suddenly, he grabbed me by the arm and pulled me around, towards him. "What is the issue?" He asked,
I did not hear him rightly, right? And why was my heart racing? What was with the sudden spring of emotions I was feeling within me? 'There is no way you are losing your guard, Mira.' I said to myself innerly and immediately set out to rebuke him."You have lived longer than me, you should know better than to play with a wolf's emotions." I slammed and he raised his hands up in surrender. "I am sorry, godmother." He addressed jokingly while smiling, but I did not find any of it funny.Those heart strings remained pulled but I just had to calm myself."Take me back already." I said authoritatively, even though I knew he could decide not to yield to me. I was prepared for the worst, let him do whatever and I would find my way out of there."Sure. They are waiting for you, still at Annatoria's place." He said it like he knew for sure what he was saying so I believed him. We stepped out of the building and then one thing that got to me was the serenity of that environment.Some men we
I was so bent on going after him. "Nobody must attack back!" I yelled, instructing every man in there like they were mine. I turned to Madison and whispered to her. "It's Jordan, Maddie." She looked surprised as well but she quickly masked her reaction."What do you want to do now?" She inquired. "I need to see him." I replied to her but she frowned. "You can't go after him now, not at this time." She cautioned but I was so determined.I felt like if I did not eventually meet with him after catching a glimpse of him, I could die. My heart pined so much to just see him up close. I did not lose my brain though, yes I knew very well that this man sent an arrow attack but I could not conclude that he was going to hurt me.For a self-perfect person like him, there was no way he would have missed the shot. If he was going to kill or harm me, it would have happened already. So there was no point in trying to attack back.I did not listen to Madison as I set out for the hills. Annatoria's
As soon my parents left the pack, I got dressed up too in preparation for the visit to Annatoria's place. "Don't tell me you are not done." Madison was close to roaring as it was her umpteenth time of coming over to hurry me up."I am almost...""Lady Mira!" She raised her voice, startling me as I tried to spray my perfume. I knew she was just angry though, she could just be dramatic sometimes."I am done." I concluded quickly as I dropped the perfume carelessly on the dresser's table.I immediately grabbed my coat and headed out with her. She frowned but I cutely dissolved her expression."So, has the gifts been prepared?" I asked as we walked down the hallway."Yes." She responded. I had told her to have gifts prepared for Annatoria. It was not the current me the last time we went there so I was there emptyhanded. Things had changed now though.As soon as we got to the main living room, Julian walked in also."Greetings, Lady." He said politely, bowing his head. "This isn't need
