Something was restraining my arm from landing the finishing blow on Bridget. Glancing from an angle, I could see another arm holding me down.
“Alpha Kai,” I stuttered. I yelped, looking at the fierce-looking figure holding my hand. This isn’t what I thought was going to happen. Apart from killing my younger sister, I expected nothing else. “Get your filthy hands off my girl. Who the hell do you think you are?” Teagan enters the room, throwing me to the ground and helping Bridget up. “Your girl?.” My breathing spiked as I was losing control at a rapid rate. If I continued with a spiked breath, I was sure to wolf out. Kai suddenly held my hands, pulling me up with a smile on his lips. Everyone in the room was stunned. The ruthless Alpha was smiling. What was happening? “Don’t wolf out just yet, Lorenzo. You still have plenty of days left to do that,” Kai urged as he took me in for a hug. Teagan’s jaw dropped as his father’s hands moved towards my waist, hugging me like he was in his youth. “Get away from her father; she’s wolfing out,” Teagan screamed as claws erupted from my fingernails, digging deep into Kai’s skin. “It’s okay, Lorenzo; I’m right here with you,” Kai whispered, ignoring the claws in his body. I felt calm hearing Kai’s soft words. It was like the songs of the lunar moon, soothing with silent healing. My hands dropped, and my claws returned to their initial position. My fang, which has started evolving, went back in, taking up its usual spot. I was back to my human form. “Father, are you alright?” Teagan let's go of Bridget, moving towards his father, who was bleeding from the cuts on his back. “I am fine, Teagan. You should know how strong I am." Kai groaned a little, enduring the pains he was passing through. I didn’t hit any vital spots, so he was very much okay, or perhaps will be. “I don’t know what came over me. I am so, so sorry, Alpha Kai, I mean Father.” My hands glazed over the pavement, falling on the vase that resided there. The vase fell straight on Kai’s foot, making him yell out in pain. Right there on his foot were four sharp pieces of glass from the broken vase. “I didn’t mean for that to happen,” I said, trying to remove the pieces of glass but getting tied up and ending up falling into his arms. I found myself staring into his golden eyes, checking out his facial features for the second hundred and twenty-sixth time today. He was looking fierce as always, not giving into the pain that dragged him from the great beyond. “Father, I told you this girl is evil. She wants to kill you and murder you just like her mother once did." Teagan roared in anger. “Please forgive me, Alpha Kai. I didn’t know what came over me. I just got all...” I paused as Kai leapt in for a kiss. Teagan couldn’t wrap his head around it. His father was kissing the girl he had left for her sister. This wasn’t possible; it couldn’t be. Bridget just watched in shock; she could see the twisting and turning of our heads as I grasped every inch of Kai’s mouth. I couldn’t stop myself from kissing him. My tongue kept twisting around his, lingering to find out the secrets it held. What was it like? Sour, sweet, or soapy? I couldn’t just figure it out. Despite my ex-mate and my daring younger sister watching, I continued taking it to higher ground. Kai finally stopped, looking around to meet his son’s amazed gaze. “Sorry about that. I had a problem breathing, so she gave me a little bit of air. That’s her new job in this place,” Kai says, stretching his hands. “This was your plan from the start, right? This is your big plan.” Teagan takes me by the neck, pinning me to the wall. His red eyes glowed with anger; he could try to annihilate me any second from now. “Leave her alone, Teagan." Bridget burst out in tears. They all looked towards Bridget, wondering what was in it for her. “She’s my sister. Even though she’s a bad bitch and a mere watchdog, I won’t want her to die in the hands of my lover.” Bridget wiped the tears from her eyes with her arm as she spoke. Teagan chuckled at her statement; he wondered where she had gotten that speech from. “Listen to her, you bastard,” I blurted out, kicking him between the legs. He groaned in pain, holding his jeans down with his arms in between his legs. “I am still his father, Lorenzo,” Kai declared. The situation went on hold for a second, with both I and Bridget taking care of the men. Bridget was tending to Teagan’s injuries while I was taking up Kai’s. The silence didn’t last for long as Bridget spotted a massive cut on Teagan’s back, calling our attention to it. He had been pushing away her hand, but she had found the spot. “See what you caused. He isn’t healing as fast as before,” Bridget says with her hands on his back. “What do you mean?” I leave Kai for a moment to check up on Teagan. It isn’t easy to leave someone you love for a day, that’s for sure. “He isn’t bleeding.” I slowly bend down to check the wound with a little torch in my hands. “You did this to him,” Bridget says, trying to start another fight. “Don’t push your luck, baby girl. You barely survived a hit from one of my fists.” I shut her up, checking his pulse rate. His pulse rate was down; he was losing consciousness. “What’s happening over there?” Kai asks, a little scared. “I think it’s some kind of special cut or weapon,” I explained, judging from my little experience as a battle nurse. “What can you see? Tell us, please, Lorenzo,” Kai let out, afraid to lose someone once more. “It’s a wolf's bane.”.The room felt less ventilated. No one was settled; everyone had gloomy looks on their faces. Fear spelled itself out clearly in our eyes as we watched Teagan groan in pain. Wolfsbane is also known as a toxic plant that spells death for werewolves. It has the power to prevent them from transforming into their wolf form, weaken them, or, in the extreme, eliminate them. It was the best-known poison that all werewolves ran from. It's power most graciously gave a surprise toxin; none stood before it."What should we do? Should I call the doctor? Kai trembled, looking at his only son, pleading for his life. He couldn't watch his son gasp for air. It wasn't pleasing to the eye. He couldn't watch his son die."Calling the doctor is impossible at a time like this. After a few more minutes of watching, he'll be on the brink of death," I spat out, running towards my room. "What should we do?" Bridget asks in fear. She couldn't lose him, either. "Fuck, I forgot my scalpel at the inn." I stutter
"What? You.uh.you love me”? I stuttered.You love me? This was quickly spiralling out of control, but the pain and betrayal I felt for Teagan and my sister wouldn't let me see straight. I didn't have an opportunity to overthink this, I had to think of myself too? This was in my favour I thought. If Alpha Kai loves me, then it makes it easy for me, right? God, I was so confused. This was so unexpectedhearing his voice pulled me out from my reverie.“Lorenzo”?he called to meYes, Father? I answered him. It came out like a question, and I didn't even care less.“Lorenzo, the name is Kai, you already know that you can stop with the Father now” he said as calmly as he could but his expression was anything but that.“I understand how you feel about this, so I don't feel bad that you don't feel the same yet” he continued.“With everything that has happened between you and Teagan, I know this is a difficult place for you right now but this is how I feel, I haven't felt this way for a lo
Teagan's POV I was shocked for a moment. I just broke up with her sister that I claimed few months ago and she wanted me to claim her again. Some girls could be reckless.At the moment, I couldn't go against her order. I accepted like an obedient dog and put my hand under her dress to lift them off her legs. She held my hand again, her power wasn't enough to deter me but due to some things that was not even clear to me, I stopped immediately."You have to make it public. In fact, you must take me to Alpha Kai, he must endorse our union," she gave another condition but it didn't feel like something that I couldn't provide."Of course, who will be the first to know about it? We are going to him right away." I caressed her cheek to put her in mood. "Once we have finished this great task in front of us!" I added seductively.She hesitated for a while before crawling out from underneath me. I became weak, I thought she was going away. I was sad but I wasn't going to force her.She walked
Bridget's POV My stomach grumbled as Lorenzo walked into the yard in her flowing gown. I felt like exploding. It was Lorenzo's claiming ceremony. She was mated to Teagan, the future Alpha. She was also the destroyer with the strange power.It was always her. She always got everything. She was a cheat, backstabber and a wicked sister. I was going to stop her. I wanted to become the Luna and when I had achieved that, I would make her bow in front of me and lick my foot. And then, I, Luna Bridget, would make her life nothing but hell.I was jolted back into consciousness by the sudden uproar of the crowd. They were cheering as Lorenzo lifted her veil, an act that she should be condemned for. Instead they were commending her.Lorenzo bowed before Alpha Kai."I greet you, Father," she said with humility and Alpha Kai sprang up from his throne seat to give her a hug. I knew I had no chance in dragging Alpha Kai's favor with Lorenzo. Alpha Kai was so proud of her. He already took her as a
Alpha Kai's POV In the Crescent Moon Pack which I lorded over as the Alpha, Lorenzo Nolan was my most beloved member of the pack. She had everything in the right proportion. She was powerful, beautiful and humble. She commanded fair share of fear and affection in the mind of the people.She deserved more from this pack as she had done a lot for us. Despite how she was not appreciated enough, she didn't react poorly. As luck would have it, she was the mate to my only son and future Alpha, Teagan Finn.I should be happy that my son got a great woman as her mate but I wasn't. Instead, I felt bad for Lorenzo. Teagan was not enough for her. She deserved better.My son was the unappreciative kind. I always feared that his reign might be short-lived as many might decide to dethrone him due to his careless and reckless behavior. He was the man of the girls. Almost all the young girls in the pack want a taste and he took that opportunity, using most of them beyond redemption. He had hurt a lo
"You know what? Get the fuck out of my house," Teagan let out in anger. I couldn't understand what exactly his point was, but he seemed far different than the mate I had fallen in love with. His eyes were glowing with anger as he stood his ground. "Trust me, I did nothing of the sort." I tried explaining myself to him, but he just didn't listen. His hands were grabbing and tossing my luggage out of the house. "Please, Teagan, listen to me." I go on my knees, pleading for his forgiveness, even though I have done nothing wrong. "If you don't get out of this house in a matter of seconds, the ground will be yours to live in," he threatens, smashing the wall behind her and watching as they crumbled to the ground."I'll go if that's what will make you happy." I take my stand while hurling my luggage onto my arms in tears. I leave his presence, gazing back for the very last time, to see the door slam shut.My pain knew no bounds. I had been accused of sleeping with his father, the Alp
I place my hands on my face, blocking the penetrating sunlight. My body felt heavy as i rolled over, trying to get a good sleeping posture. After several twists and turns, I give up, rolling off the bed and falling onto the ground. I felt a surge of restlessness; maybe it was the after effects of the alcohol I had taken last night. I open my eyes slowly, lifting myself up from the floor.I took a look around, and suddenly I was overwhelmed with joy. From the fluorescent lamp to the marble-tiled floor, I knew it was the house of the mighty Alpha Kai. Though it felt good to be in the house of my father-in-law, I still struggled to believe it. "What am I doing here? Was I kidnapped? What does he want me for? Did Teagan lie to him?" I kept on asking questions I had zero answer to. With a low growl, I move towards the door, opening it slowly. A huge passage crossed my sight, making me mumble. With no idea where I was, frustration took over. I couldn't let myself get kidnapped by the ev
I couldn't believe it had worked. Alpha Kai had made love to me with open arms. From the rump I had, I knew the difference between an Alpha and a Beta. The strength gap was far too wide.Kai felt guilty for his actions. Taking his son's mate under him was something to be ashamed of. He couldn't believe it himself, but he had been seduced. It wasn't the first time he'd been seduced, but it was the only time he leaned in for it. I had something special that made him attracted and wanting. He felt vulnerable and tried to keep away from me."Good morning, father,” I bent to greet him, pretending nothing happened the night before. Kai looks at her from head to toe, remembering what he had done. It was pretty hard to forget it. He ruminates around the corners, pretending to be looking for something."Father?" I pestered him, trying to get a word out of his mouth."Good morning to you, Lorenzo," he replies, avoiding eye contact. I could sense something fishy in his eye movements and decided
