RAULThe sound of my breathing was the only thing that kept me seated at the table with my brothers. I let my fists curl around the chair as I tried hard to control myself. This was just not right. How could everything have gone wrong in a split second?“You guys ruined everything for me,” Lucian mumbled.I turned to him, slightly shocked that he would say such a thing to me. I had not been the one that was arguing like a kid, but he was! Nikolai shifted in his seat as he looked at Lucian with pure anger. It was rare to see him angry, but this time, he definitely was.“You don’t get to blame us for everything,” he snapped coldly. “It was your idea to use this method to get her to fall in love with us, and we simply proceeded. There is no need to act like you were not aware of everything that had happened, and what occurred was against your free will because I wouldn’t buy that one bit.”Lucian scoffed as he slammed his fist on the table. “I did what, I thought, was right, but you made
RAULI slammed my fist against the bath wall as fresh rage consumed me. Drinking alcohol overnight had not helped the pain that I was literally feeling, and instead, it felt like I was about to kill someone and I had no idea who. Turning off the shower, I stepped out of the bathtub. The maid quickly got me my robe and other needed things. I ignored her completely as she made her way over to the wardrobe. I could hear her footsteps as she walked out of the door, but I could care less.If I could have gotten the opportunity to shift in my wolf form, then I would have done so a long time ago. But, I couldn’t do any of those things right now. I was stuck at the way everything seemed to be more confusing suffocating as I moved through life."Maybe, I should just look for her, and ask her for forgiveness," I though out loud.With a grunt, I pulled into any cloth I could lay my hands on. I didn’t care if it was good enough or not. I just wanted to get the hell out of this place, and meet An
MEADE"Get that cup out of my sight, you complete idiot!’ I snapped at Eva, the maid.They were all idiots, and I would have to make sure that they got punished for their nonsense. Groaning, I fanned myself even more. The door suddenly pulled inward, and a beauty in blue stepped on him. Her smile lit up like the moonlight, and I found myself springing up to my feet in excitement."Cleo?" She beamed as she literally ran in my direction. "Yes, it’s me!" She squealed.I gasped in shock as she finally hugged me so close to herself. She was really beautiful and full of love, and I didn’t wish to stop looking at her one bit. How could someone be so amazing? Oh, goddess! My brother was too full to let go of such a woman. "I’ve missed you so much, Lady Meade," she said softly.I chucked. "I don’t think it can be graded by how much I have missed you," I argued.She laughed softly as she pulled back. "Is that so?"I smirked. "Yes, Cleo," I admitted.Cleo laughed once more as she sat back on m
ANDREAI flung the door open, feeling like every part of me was on fire. That girl couldn’t even print for a minute to respect me. And, Raul...? How could he be all over her like that? I pulled at my top, only to see that the girls were looking at me in shock."You guys are here early," I whispered.Lily stepped forward. "Yes, Luna," she said softly. "Is there something wrong?’"No, Luna," she said at once. She turned back to the girls, and then she looked at me. "The thing is that we wanted to treat you to ice cream and meat. I pleaded with the maids to make it, and I think it would be nice if you ate something like that too."I shook my head in shock. 'I don’t think that was...""Please don’t refuse Luna. We really want to be able to take care of you, and this is the only idea that has come my way. Please, don’t refuse," she begged.I opened my mouth to speak when the door suddenly swung open. A cool breeze caressed my head, and I turned back a bit to see that it was no one other t
ANDREARaul’s lips were soft as they pressed against mine. I could feel his hand move around me, pulling me to his body with such reckless abandon. It made me think of lilies, and I just wanted to be able to stay with him for life. This was supposed to be my everything, my home, and I just didn’t wish for it to change for anything in the world."Andrea," he whispered against my lips. "You do care," he added helplessly.I smiled softly. "And you’ve caught me in my well-crafted lie," I whispered right back.He pulled back a bit to look into my eyes, and I found his grey to be the most captivating in the world, and I just wanted to stare at him till I had nothing else to do with myself. He had always been by my side, and I could remember when he had just stepped into my room to kiss me. The man had been so crazy, and he ended up being so different and more thoughtful than his brothers. I hated to compare them like this, but I just couldn’t help it at all. He just did it for me in so many
LUCIANI stared at the file in my hands, feeling as though my head was blank. Maybe it was. I slammed the file down and rested my head against the headrest, feeling more suffocated than I had been in a long while. "Just talk to her," Beta Luis said astride me.I placed a hand over my hand. "I can’t face Andrea. She must hate my guts right now. I don’t know what to do, Luis," I mumbled.Luis whistled, and that made me annoyed. I sat up a bit, glaring at his handsome face. The man was supposed to be my supportive shoulder, but he was finding my predicament so amusing. It was so annoying, and I just couldn’t stand it at all.He raised his hand defensively. "Ok, don’t look at me like that. I’m just trying to be cool.""I think you should meet your son, Brody, to do that crap with Luis. I’m in a serious mess, and you think that it’s funny?""I’m sorry," he said at once.I wanted to push the matter, but he looked really apologetic, and for the first time in a long while, I didn’t have the
LUCIAN"What do you mean by someone who has been Nikolai? Who the hell is the person?" I snapped angrily.He pulled his phone from his pocket and showed me a picture of a woman in a black costume. She was old and wrinkly, and I could barely see the light in her eyes as I peered into the picture. Damn it! "Listen, I would explain everything on the way there, but we need to see the body right now. There might be some clues that we aren’t able to put together," Nikolai tried to reason with me.I nodded as I followed after him. It was at that moment that I realised that Brody was probably waiting for me to show up. I calmly brought my phone out and informed him that he could continue with the operation with Raul. He didn’t argue with me so much, and I disconnected the call on a firm note.Nikolai walked ahead of me, and I quickly moved towards him. There was so much clarification that I had to get done concerning this issue. Was the Blue Moon Pack still trying to attack us despite the cl
ANDREA"Do you think we should wake her up right now?" I could hear Amelia whine in the background.I sighed as I nestled closer to my pillow. Goddess knew that I needed the sleep, but the sounds of the girls talking had not allowed me to even close my eyes peacefully. They were just too much, and super loud while at it.There was some quiet pull and shove before Lily’s voice rang out. "I think we need to tell her what is going on because she is the Luna, and she is the only one who can stop the whole issue from blowing out of proportion.""You’re probably right, but what if she gets angry or something?" Lucinda whined.She was slapped at the back by the other two. "No, that is not going to happen. You’ve served her for quite a while now, and do you think that the Luna would make things unbearable for us?" Lily reasoned.I could imagine that she shook her head at that because their steps suddenly became loud as they drew near me. I clutched at the blanket trying to remain at ease, but
ANDREAIt’s been a week, and I was starting to feel like myself again. There had been apologies and whatnot, but my father-in-law had not been able to do that. Instead, he walked out of the pack and told us not to find him. I still didn’t know what to think about that, but I just hoped with all I had that there would be no more problems for him in the future.Now, I was heading to the dining area to dine with my friend. It felt like the most beautiful thing in the world right now, and I didn’t wish to stop thinking about it."She is here," my friends said the moment I stepped in.Lily, Lucinda, and Amelia giggled behind me, and I rolled my eyes. Despite all of my emotions, it felt good to be able to look at my friends. They complimented my golden gown with their black, red, and silver suits. Raul and Nikolai stretched their hands towards me, and I quickly moved over to them, placing my hands in theirs. It felt so good to be able to do that and be where I was with them, and I didn’t wan
ANDREAI was seated by Lucian’s side, with Nikolai and Raul flanking us as we looked at the elders, who had their heads bowed in submission. This was so weird, and I looked at Lucian for support, and he squeezed my hand in response before facing them once more."I called you all here because you’ve really hurt me. I have been someone who has taken the pack to greater heights all through my years, but what I got when I found out about my mate was that you tried to kill her," Lucian paused for effect.He signalled to his friends, and they placed their hands on my shoulders. "This is the speech you wanted to hear, right? But I won’t give you that," he said firmly.They rose their heads as they looked at the Alpha in shock. I looked at the boys I fell in love with, and it felt like my heart was about to burst with the love I was feeling."We," they said as one. "We are sorry for everything we’ve done in this pack so far," he muttered.The shock and awe were written all over the elders fac
ANDREA'Maybe, we would definitely die here,' Kezav mumbled in panic.I shook my head lightly, hoping that wouldn’t happen. I really hoped that my mates found me quickly. If they were arguing as usual, it would be more difficult to do, so they mustn’t fight, but cooperate with each other.I swallowed hard as the pain in my wrists intensified and my eyes swarm in circles. I was so damn hungry and thirsty, but I didn’t want to eat a thing. I wondered if the elders would serve me poison or something. It would really be a waste. I still wanted to see my mates once more, and tell them how much I loved them, and hoped they would not separate me from themselves.Those thoughts died a natural death as the door suddenly creaked open. The faces of the elders were so hazy, but I knew they were coming towards me."Shut up!" They screamed suddenly.I had not realised that I had been speaking at all. I sighed as I was pulled harshly up, my wrists slowly disintegrated from my own body."Do you reall
RAULI subconsciously placed my hand over my head in a bid to control the pain that I was feeling. Goddess, what the hell was going on with me? I sighed lightly as I slowly slid my eyes open. The whole place was so hazy, and the headaches seemed to triple, like something was after me. "What happened?" I asked in a slurred tone that didn’t seem to belong to me.Licking my sticky lips, I turned around, and the whole place was slowly becoming clearer. It seemed I was in my room. No, that wasn’t a probability; I was indeed here. But wasn’t I...'They are not burning. They are still in their wolf form,' I could hear those bastards cry in panic.I could remember how one of them had taken advantage of my situation and stabbed me. Damn! It must have been a silver blade, because nothing else could have brought me down that fast. But, were my brothers able to subdue the pack too?I honestly hoped so.With a soft sigh, I calmly placed my feet on the floor as I slowly rose from the bed. At first
LADY MEADEI could hear the sounds of people screaming and shouting as I walked out of the pack house, but it didn’t deter me from moving forward. That useless Andrea had almost spoiled all my plans when she intercepted me, but I was smarter than she was with everything that I had, and she was never going to win against me.When I get out of this mess, I will have to find out how I am going to handle her. It was important to put her right in the place she belonged, and I would gladly do all that on a platter. I have had enough of her nonsense.Pulling my hoodie over my head, I moved through the shortcut to the dungeon. As usual, the prisoners were waiting to be released. It never made sense to me why they were so bitter. Well, I wouldn’t be the same as they were. I’m going to fight for myself and my future.That was enough for me to move directly to the guard I had paid. I had no idea that he was also a part of the Blue Moon Pack, but that was okay. He was definitely going to call my
LUCIANRaul hit the ground with a thud, and I swallowed the lump in my throat as I moved towards the battle. There was an unquestionable desire to kill someone who had hurt my brother, but Nikolai was faster, snapping his head out of his body. The bastard lay dismembered.I moved over to Raul, who was now in his human form and was clutching his side in pain. "Are you ok?" I managed as I shifted back. His eyes drooped close, and I could tell that he was in pain for some reason, and that hurt me a whole lot more than I could put into words. My eyes slowly accessed the injury, and I realised that it was a silver dagger that had done the fatal wound. Goddess, this was too much! How could things just shift like this? It was too painful to be real, and I hated that my brother was at the receiving end of it."You would be fine," I mumbled softly.Nikolai suddenly pulled me up, and I realised he had shifted too. "What are you doing? The whole ground is filled with bloody fights, and you keep
LUCIAN“Shift!” I screamed to the soldiers behind me as I went right into the heart of the fight.One of the men came at me and I easily pulled him by the neck before snapping his head out of his body. There were several cries around, and my eyes sought my brothers who were also busy fighting like their lives depended on it. This was a moment that we had to use all we had to get the results that we needed, and I was going to be a part of that win.“Keep fighting brothers!” I snapped through the mind-link as I turned back toward the crowd.I hit whoever was in front of me with my dagger, knowing that it was either I died or they did. The oppositions were also shifting into their wolf form, but I held on to my human form, knowing it was not yet time for me to shift.Where was that bastard?My eyes shifted to red as I tried to seek him out, and I finally found a figure hiding at the bark of a tree. It was him. I growled as I stabbed the idiot who came at me before moving over to him. Alp
ANDREAI felt like I was drowning in something, and I struggled to rise to my feet. But for some reason, I was not able to do any of that. I panted in horror, and before long, my eyes were open. I saw nothing but darkness, and the pain was mildly suffocating. What the hell was going on? I slowly tried to move my hands once more, but it seemed like they were stuck on something. I couldn’t move it, and I had the insane thought that it would get worse with time."Who is there?" I screamed in horror.There was no response. Instead, it seemed like the darkness was sinking into my own skin. No, I couldn’t be afraid of the dark right now. I must find a way to get the hell out of here. I can’t continue this way."Show yourself! I wish to be free right now because you have no idea who you’re dealing with. I’m the Luna of this damn pack, and it will always remain like that till the end of time. The Alphas of the Red Moon Pack would slay you in a second if you didn’t do something about this! I
ANDREAI watched as the boys turned around to look at me. There was worry in their eyes for me. It broke my heart that things had come to this. I had not planned to give so much pain to them, but it had happened anyway. There was definitely nothing that I could have done to stop it. But, right now, it was important to ignore my own pain and focus instead on what was happening in front of me.I took several steps towards them, my fingers curling around my robe as I looked right at them. I promise I will talk to you guys together when this is all over, but... "What’s wrong, Andrea?" Nikolai asked softly.I took a deep breath, my fingers tightening even more around the robe. "I can’t let you go," I blurted out.Raul stepped forward, his eyes soft as he looked at me. "What are you saying, Andrea? The pack needs to be protected, and I just can’t stay back just like that. It’s important to get things done. If anything bad happens to people, I will never be able to forgive myself," he said
