-VALEN’S POV-

Directly after I teleported Raina to Mom’s chief medical office, I mind-linked her that Raina was safe and with me. No matter how much I tried to put Raina on the bed to lie down for examination, her arms would not unwrap from my neck.

“Don’t let go.” Her heart was racing at an incredible speed.

So, I lifted her trembling legs and let them encircle my waist with one hand under her buttocks, holding her. I kissed her temple, leaving my cheek on hers.

“I didn’t want to ― I didn’t mean to ― Valen,” Raina repeated with a low cracking voice, sniffling. Her moist button nose pressed into my neck.

My free hand caressed the length of her back in an attempt to give her warmth and security. I whispered in her ear. “It’s okay. You’re my strong queen. You had no choice.”

Her clothes were soiled with dried blood and grime. Plus I wanted to quickly check her body and in this state, I was hampered. It hurt to see her like this. I was feeling a lot of things and Zeus reminded me that he

    -VALEN’S POV-“Um―” Raina faltered as she stared at the ceiling.The acknowledgment of her regret hit me. The sorrow she felt nearly knocked the wind out of me. My heart spasm in my chest thinking that the kiss actually happened.“He―” Her head turned towards me with a pained expression.Waiting for her answer, I squeezed my eyes shut and pinched the bridge of my nose. A throb of anger pounded on my temples.“No.” Raina’s blue eyes were very guilt-ridden, and my anger deflated just a notch.“The fealty requires that he swears his sword to you, and then you will have to kiss him on the lips to seal the bond.” Mom’s eyes hardened on me.“Like fucking hell!” I cracked cynically as my veins pulsed with unexplainable rage and my fist made another hole in the white wall.It wasn’t enough. My frothy wrath needed release, but it seemed that more and more anger bubbled inside as I lost control.Him kissing her ― touching her. My mate? Mine! Every thought of that kiss occurring jabbed me in the

    -VALEN'S POV–Raina stirred beneath my arms. Zeus purred, as I nuzzled my nose on her mate mark, lightly nipping on it.I was a bastard for wanting to wake her up because I wanted her attention. It was that simple. Venus mentioned that she had been sleeping for the past three days and I couldn’t bare another minute without her.Determined, I rubbed my thumb up and down the side of her cheek, trying to gently coax her out of dreamland.“Mmm.” She moaned and shifted. I enjoyed the soft sounds of contentment that she made in her sleep as her muscles loosened and relaxed."Raina ―" I whispered, watching her facial expression change and twitch as I slowly pulled her from sleep. "Time to wake up, baby.”Arousing from slumber, I watched her eyes flutter open. She lifted her head and stretched out her arms and legs.“Good morning, Bluebella,” I whispered, kissing below her ear.She shivered, twisting her body to lay flat on her back. A few straying strands of her burgundy hair lay on her face.

    -RAINA'S POV-Hyperaware of my arousal, I gazed upwards into Valen’s dilated pupils and parted my lips. He pressed his lips on mine. I welcomed him into my mouth, hoping it would lead to passionate lovemaking. His tongue stroked my insides, slowly and lazily as he took his time devouring me.The furor of sparks awakened in Valen’s kisses, melting any form of estrangement. His long, disheveled black hair tickled my cheeks. He groaned with his lustful emeralds on my lips. He wanted more.Pulling away slowly, he kissed each of my cheeks, followed by the tip of my nose. Teasing him, I walked two fingers up his biceps, across his broad shoulders, down the hard planes of his pectorals, and finally, around his nipples.Valen drew a long hissing breath.I giggled. It was exactly the reaction I desired.The scent of his lust incited the ache in between my thighs. My desire for him escalated. It was the on-again, off-again bond that worried me. Yet, I chose to relish the sensation of his mouth

    -RAINA’S POV-The first white card was from Alpha Rowling. He expressed many thanks for being able to make it home in time to attend to his Luna and their new baby girl, Evonnie. He'd like to host a celebration event for me with his Elder Council to attend. He also appealed for a royal blessing from his Luna Queen to his daughter.The second peach card was from Alpha Femoris, Mercedes' father's pack. I side-eyed Valen before reading the content. I was wary of him when it involved Mercedes.The Alpha congratulated us on our mating and would like to invite me to Canada for an honorary luncheon with him and his Elder Council.Lastly, I hesitated to open this one from Alpha Kain. Valen's skeptical eyes were practically burning holes in me.“I'm not leaving till I see what he wants.” Green with jealousy, he fussed. “Wasn't it enough that you were there for a whole week with him? An entire fucking week.”Side-glancing at him, I countered, “I was there with my parents.”"Kain's always wanted

    -RAINA’S POV-Claws emerged. I gasped when Valen flashed them down my camisole, ripping the flimsy garment from my body. They hooked into the waistband of my thong and it became history.“I love it when you are this needy for me, Raina?" He rasped, licking his lips. The racy look on his face entranced me."I've never wanted anything as badly as I want you," I whispered, gandering into those gorgeous green eyes. My fingertips caressed the peaks and valleys of his well-defined abs. My heart pulsed in a frenzy as I watched him. “I miss you inside of me.”Something feral flashed in the eyes of the Alpha in front of me. It’s euphoric how much my body responded to it.Valen pressed his thumb on my right nipple, letting it circle in a clockwise motion. My breath quickened. My nipples tightened. He repeated the same to my left one with his other thumb. My senses went wild.“Angh!” I curved my index finger and bit down on it as my body zinged with sensations. My heart pounded like a battering

    -VALEN’S POV-"Valen." She purred out my name in a softened way like a horny cat.Just like she had called out to me over and over again whenever my tongue had taken comfort between her thighs. I liked how my name sounded so tender between her plump, salacious lips, but I was a fraying thread and moments away from snapping.Thighs quivering like a damn leaf from the intensity of her previous orgasm. Her pink little pussy is slippery with her juices as I stare down at her. She was such a fucking tease, and now she was going to get what was coming to her. I licked her cum from my fingers.She was radiant and beautiful. So fucking delicious and tight. My throbbing cock was rock hard as fuck, and I wanted her cumming on it.To calm the raging urge to plunge hard into her and fuck her mercilessly, I drew in a deep breath of her intoxicating arousal on instinct. Taking in a lungful of her needy scent, I raised up on my knees and removed my boxers to free my erected cock.I almost lost my lo

    -VALEN'S POV-Teleporting into my parents' house could always be risky. Manifesting in the living room lessened the possibility that I might not barge in on them doing the nasty. Something churned in my gut at the awful memory of how many times I have caught them. Blah! I shuddered and shoved the images out of my head.Today, thankfully, the coast was clear. The scent of roses filled the house. It was homely. Zeus stirred within me. We missed Mama Wolf.Hearing a fridge door open and close, I headed to the kitchen with a smile. Mom placed a bowl of baked turkey legs on the counter.Nyx suddenly pranced from midair to Mom’s side. His big white head nuzzled into her side as he looked up at her. His curling tail switched from side to side, excitedly.“I felt you come in.” Mom lifted her head, smiling with the warmest love in the world. Her hand automatically patted Nyx’s white head. “We're alone, but your Dad should be here any minute.”She left the counter and I watched her take out a pl

    -VALEN’S POV-“The Elder Council has requested an emergency meeting for tomorrow morning.” Mom said, pulling out a black upholstered chair from the black square-shaped breakfast nook by the bay window. She sank into it solemnly.“Whoop-de-fucking-doo.” Dad joined her with a grim sigh and uttered sarcastically. “With all the free time that we have in the world, of course, we can just clear our hectic schedules for them. It’s not like we have over a hundred thousand stray wolves to attend to.”Sharing Dad’s sentiments, I scoffed. I leaned against the island knowing this was coming. An emergency meeting denoted that they weren’t happy.Together with the Alpha King, the Elder council established the law in the days of old. It was always wise for a king to have a body of advisors to ensure the objectivity of viewpoints and recommendations were highlighted to assist the king's decision-making.The hard-nosed elders wanted answers for everything that had happened, rumors and all.

    THIRD PERSON’S POVThunderstruck.Several aspects of what the Worgens saw were unexpected. The fighting scene between the Alpha Princes had them tight-lipped and uneasy.On a cauliflower-shaped cumulus cloud in the hot, blue sky, Seff, Jarvaldo, Rovell, Farrah, and Dymian watched keenly at the brawl on the concrete roof below. Rovell navigated his clouds with stealth in order to conceal their location from the irritating eagle guardian."What the fuck?" Rovell exclaimed, forgetting that they were covertly hanging around to evaluate their enemy's power and skills.Observing Valen would inform them of the level of power that protected the werewolf kingdom. A chain was as strong as its weakest link. Sadly for them, Valen appeared strong."OMG!" Jarvaldo muttered, half astounded and half pissed.Seff snapped his quizzical eyes at him. "OMG? Is that a new weapon? Show it to me!” He said, peering down at the brawl and earnestly searching them with his eyes for some shiny new weapon. “Show i

    VALEN'S POVA dark, menacing harlequin flooded each iris. There he was, grunting, thick with scorn. “Well, if it isn’t the realm’s treasure.”Scanning over his appearance, the dirty pants that he wore were threadbare. The afternoon's cool breeze blew open his unbuttoned shirt, billowing at the sooty material to expose his bare torso. The hems of which were jagged. He expelled an offensive odor, which intensified by the minute and seemed to go up to the little hairs in my nose to stick to them.Vaheed’s putrid stench nauseated me from a distance and the sun's rays were evidently kicking his ass. He perspired like he'd been beaten in a marathon he had just run in the sun's barraging beams.Finding him at last, provided minor relief. The search was over. Now I had to ensure that he did not slip away from me.Cautiously, I assessed his aura. Zeus shifted within me. He brooded with impatience. We knew something was off because we felt a darkness within him."Zuzu, what do you read?" I aske

    -RAINA'S POV“I can't stop. I won’t stop. Not until I get my wolf.” I replied with all seriousness, showing my determination. Then sadness overcame me when I thought of everything that crashed into my life. My voice dropped, softening. “I'm scared, Valen.”This doppelgänger was as impassive as the first time I met him. This was the Valen who was incandescently in love with Villainess Snow, also known as the nefarious Mercedes.Scanning his features, his edgy mohawk had gotten a lot whiter with a sleek shine. From this angle, the loose black strands were barely noticeable with the bulk of his long hair combed over to the right. This time a thicker, short beard covered his sharp jawline, and he pinned me with a hateful glare. Strapped and overpowered.“Then find your mate.” He simply said, annoyance still palpable in his demeanor.I shook my head stubbornly. “I need some answers, or I'm stepping through.”His eyes hardened at me. Anger, like stone, set in his features.“Why did you try

    RAINA'S POV-“When your Grandma said she would keep my snow globe safe, she really wasn't kidding,” I muttered with sarcasm as I walked down the dark passageway. Our feet thudded on baked black mud with its walls decorated with brown-black, twining, trunky vines.Leading with a torch in her hand, Pennelope chuckled and then uttered with dramatic emphasis, “Grams never—and I mean never joke around.”“Your home is creepy as hell,” I swear the big vines moved sometimes.Witches' houses were truly a haunted horror for intruders. You could get in, but only the goddess could help you to get out. A modicum of dread weaved through me, but with Penn here, I thought I would be alright.Get it together Raina.It's amazing how the home could transition from a lovely spacious cottage on the upper floors and then descend from the basement into a whole murky forest with thin, white smoky ghosts popping up here and there, whooing around. Ancestors, Pennelope called them.Marlena told me the snow glob

    VALEN'S POV-Zeus' volcanic rage was swarming me. It was hard to control him like this. I never expected Devin's revelation to propel my wolf into a hissy fit. Vaheed's attack on my best friend left a bitter taste of betrayal.Not to mention, his actions with Raina were incomprehensible because he was marked by his own mate. Once again, my brother was after my mate. Why? I thought we passed this stage, but no. He’s a damn dickhead who has gone off the rails.“Alpha, did you get the new location?” Jason’s voice came through the communication earpiece.“Yeah,” I replied in a not-so-nice tone. “We’ll move in five.”Nuuk, Bahia Blanca, and Isiro were fruitless. This was the last sanctuary that was on our agenda to investigate. However, Heidi had found that this one in Waipu had a branch in the United States. Pennelope also confirmed high amounts of camouflaging magic that were widespread across the town. All of its energy waves pulsed from that synagogue.I stood to the side with my rifle

    VALEN’S POV-I caught Jason standing from his chair with his head down. He was scratching his forehead with his palm blocking most of his eyes, but I saw them sneaking upwards to watch out for my reaction.Guilty as sin. He had to be the culprit who provided the girls with everything they needed, including war gear, despite that he knew how we felt about our women on the battlefield.I growled at him.“We're coming on the mission.” Venus was always the boldest to speak first.With hands on my waist, I rebuffed, “No, that's a negative. You've been up all night, and it’s two a.m., plus the Howl De Lune cannot be planned by itself. The team and I will be gone for days.”“Cleo and Mom are here,” Raina argued, failing to see my point. She shrugged and emphasized, “I’m safest when I am with you.”“Mom left you in charge.” As I spoke, my feet crossed the space to draw closer to her. “Everyone else has to be here to assist you. Besides, the Bolivian and Ugandan wolves rely on your presence. Y

    VALEN POV-“This coffee is shit,” Theo’s deep grumpy voice complained, almost spitting the liquid from his mouth after taking his first sip from the cup.“Too bad, I thought it was the perfect flavor for you,” Jason sassed with a cocky grin from around his grand U-shaped desk with the multiscreen computer system up and running.“You are the greatest hacker I know, and you can build the most advanced techno shit. That you can do, but you can’t make a damn good coffee?” Theo exaggerated, gesturing to the hot cup in his hand.Jason huffed and turned his head back to the computer screens, typing away on the keyboard. “Screw you.”“I would, but not today. You’ve got to buy me a beer first,” The Gamma twin jested back and stepped over to Azara with the coffee in his hand, giving it to her.We were at the IT Hub, which was Jason's domain. It was a fawn-colored, single-story federal house located across from the Training Center. He worked hand in hand with the Gammas, being our eyes from the

    VALEN’S POV-I side-eyed Gamma Blayne furiously. He immediately bowed his head and averted his gaze.The stench of blood got stronger, permeating my senses, causing my legs to speed up. I can't stand the thought of any more of our members getting hurt or killed."What the hell..." I trailed off as I inched closer, crouching down and examining the line of dead bodies. It was just downright sick and twisted to use them for a ransom note effect.A chill entered the air that made everyone shiver. Raina’s eyes widened at the gruesome sight.Venus gasped, going pale with a hand flying over her mouth. “This is barbaric.”All their necks were slashed by claws and two of the deceased were used for the punctuation marks. Reading from left to right, it stated: ‘We have not forgotten, and we are coming for her.’Gamma Blayne crouched at the lifeless body next to me. He touched the wound on the man’s chest, inspecting it. “The gashes aren’t as deep as you’d expect, but this one got a double tap en

    VALEN’S POV-Together, Theo, Thaines, Jason, and I pushed forward in our wolf form. Leaves and twigs crunched under our pounding paws. The sight of the full moon took its turn in the sky and the faint wind skimmed my fur.The grim sound of battle reached my ears long before we reached the outskirts of the station. We arrived united, skidding to a halt as we met the bloody scene with hard eyes and fangs bared. The air was thickened with the stench of sweat, blood, and death. Gruel residues of combat.Looking around the field for a target, the sounds of gnashing teeth, angry snarls, and painful shouts that had previously filled the air vanished with the rogues that swiftly fled through the tree line, leaving an eerie silence.“Cowards!” I roared internally, anger filling my veins.“Go now! Don’t let them get away!” Gamma Blayne shouted orders to a specialized team of elite wolves to pursue the escapees. He stood naked, heaving and curling his hands into fists, and his head whipped to spo
