My Valued Readers, thank you for waiting. Seeing your gems, comments and reviews motivates me a lot. I would love for you to hang around as we embark on the journey of Valen and Raina, and what path they will take in the end. :)
-VALEN’S POV- “Everyone, back to work!” Dad boomed at the hospital staff, sweeping his eyes around as they briskly went to their assigned stations. Then he shouted at me, “Are you out of your fucking mind?” Vaheed’s scars showed pink flesh from the regeneration process of his alpha bloodline. My wolf and I were not satisfied. Zeus growled within me. He disliked that our father intervened and hindered the deadly outcome that he planned for him. Like clawing off his dick and throwing it in the sea to the tiger sharks. Any male going near Raina who was not a relative angered us. Yes, my wolf wanted my brother dead and gnashed his canines in staunch opposition. “Boy, put your teeth back! I won’t tolerate this from either of you.” Dad’s emerald eyes found Devin with his heavy foot on Zack’s back. “Release him, Beta.” Devin obeyed and stood at ease. Luck was on Zack’s side today, and he galloped away without regard for Vaheed. Some wuss of a friend he was. “Don’t tell me that this is
-RAINA’S POV- "How could you do this to us?!" My shrilling voice echoed in my head like a broken record. The annoying repetition pounded my cranium. Everything around me was a gloomy veil. Brooding silhouettes of the enemy stood tall. Death’s red ink soaked the earth’s floor. I was on a plane of darkness, of death. Black grainy mist permeated the air where wolves could no longer abide. This mournful plain rendered sadness on a platter. The tragedy devoured me. Nevertheless, all my kind who experienced the negative ether of this world had bound their hearts and souls to that of Earth's realm as I witnessed souls rising from bodies, thinning out, before vanishing. Hidden was the light. There is no gateway to rebirth. As the black gritty mist ate away at the body's flesh, the white bones fell back to the ground. The apex predator has brought genocide. It was suffocating. My throat was clogged like a toilet. Even a cough was hard to escape. My heart bled. My hand covered my mouth as
-RAINA’S POV- Nothing is impossible. Luna Sianna left me with those words after she expressed her disappointment about my downcast view regarding my mate bond. Can you blame me? Unfortunate soulmates are two people joined by a mate bond but not intended to be together. Though it might be too early to determine that. The appearance of Azara and Venus re-entering the room wiped all blizzarding thoughts from my head. "I can't wait to get the hell out of this hospital," I complained to my girls, scrunching my face. Haphazardly, I flopped my back down on the bed. “Ow!” These four walls were an imprisonment for anxiety attacks and nightmares. I was a very active person in comparison to being bedridden for almost twenty-four hours. I missed training with my Dad, kicking male warriors' asses, hanging with the gang, and being free to do whatever and wherever. Venus, Azara, and I were rather outgoing. We were the girls to invite if you wanted your party to be a blast. Displaying major conc
-RAINA’S POV- "This way." Elder Miriam beckoned us and guided Devin inside the enchanted circle of the ritual temple floor, which was just below the white marble stone altar. Gently, his arms lowered and positioned me to lay on my back in the center of the pack insignia. It was already prepped and thus glowed rose beige once Devin exited the circle. The incense of sweet herbs from the altar filled my smelling senses as Miriam lit all nine blue candles. It was unexpected that Elder Victor was present while the other four elders were not. He might have shown up to support his grandson, Valen. He stroked his Ceasar-cut Mallen streak, thinned his lips into a smile, and turned his forest green eyes to stare at his son, who whispered something to him. Mom, Dad, Luna Queen Sianna, Alpha King Vance, Marlena, the pack witch, Devin, and Valen surrounded me at the edge of the circle. All peered down on me with optimism. "We're here for you, sweetheart," Mom whispered. "Hang tight. It'll be
-RAINA’S POV- He was gone in an instant. Just like that, my happy moment smashed and my heart scattered in pieces in my chest. Will he forever be tearing out my heart, the one that beats only for him? Before my thoughts went further, Luna Sianna rested a hand on my shoulder and stated, "I'm sure that he's happy for you." "See you later, Cuz." Devin bid me good night, following Valen out the doors of the ritual temple. "Sure," I sadly responded. I wanted to run after them. However, Dad and Mom encased me on both sides with a loving hug. "You should go. I'll lock up." Alpha Vance instructed all of us. "I'll wait for you outside." Luna Sianna told him and escorted us out into the cool night. Casting a glance up at the diamond-flared silver moon, I wondered about the plans the moon goddess had for my future as its gleaming cords of moonlight hung loosely over the earth. Marlena and Miriam walked with us outside. The elder woman gazed at me saying, “Though man is born unto trouble,
-RAINA’S POV- "Did you get any more information?" I examined my sleep-deprived friend, noting the heavy bags under her eyes as I shut the car door of my royal blue Bentley and walked over to her white McLaren. We just got out of our cars and immediately convened in the parking lot of our high school. Students loitered on the compound. “Mom won’t say anything and Dad’s not here.” The corners of Venus’ mouth half-mooned downwards. Her harlequin eyes seemed slightly bloodshot from the lack of sleep. “Where did he go?” I exhorted, tugging at my cute aesthetic yellow backpack over my left shoulder. “Wolkrane Fortress.” Her tone was light but the color was worn-out from her complexion. She pressed the key fob and locked up the car, setting the alarm. “And Valen, did he come back?” My heart skipped a beat as I waited for the acknowledgment. Please say yes, I supplicated inwardly. Truly, I preferred him being here. It turned out that he left me last night to depart for Alpha Camp. Even
- RAINA’S POV- My bitch switch flipped on and I wanted to give it to her. I abruptly ceased walking and twirled to face her. “Don’t you dare accuse me of such a thing!” Thinking that my incensed voice had elevated unflatteringly loud, I quickly glanced around at the intrigued groupies that observed our bicker and blocked them out. “I can’t stop a guy from having feelings for me.” “You knew damn well that this would happen. Vaheed has literally fanned off every guy that showed interest in you. How many guys has he strangled to stay the hell away from you?” Venus’ angry aura plunged out like a slapping wave. “Didn’t you think he would want to kill your mate too?” “Guys,” Azara tried to referee, switching her place at the end and pushing to center between us. Ignoring her, I snapped, “What did you want me to do? Cut Vaheed off and end our friendship?” “Yes!” Venus assertively declared with a strong nod of the head. Taken aback, my mouth fell open. It was utterly unfair of her to d

-VALEN'S POV-Materializing in the darkness at the foot of their king-sized bed, I found my parents spooning in a cuddle, deeply sleeping.Dawn's light hadn't graced us yet, but this was important, so here I was. I tried not to startle them, although they had to have smelled my presence through our wolves’ kin bonds.“Mom. Dad.” I kept my voice soft enough.With a snap of my fingers, I flicked the ceiling light on without their permission. The illumination flooded the vast, opulent master bedroom. This should spring them up."Valen?" Mom complained groggily, squeezing her closed eyes. She scrunched her face, lifting her hand to shield her eyes from the slap of the brightness.“Grrr,” Dad growled his annoyance and muttered inaudibly. He kept his eyes closed as a sign that he was not going to entertain me. His strong muscular embrace tightened around Mom's waist as he buried his face in her neck.They made no move to see why I had disturbed them like this, but I wasn't going away.“Dad,
Hello Lovelies,I though I would have been able to upload a chapter by now, but as it is, I can hardly find the time to do so.As mentioned some time ago, two relatives passed away in previous months. The first funeral will be this weekend and the second will be held the Saturday before Christmas. As such, there is a lot of preparations to do as well as to accomodate and entertain guest and visiting relatives.Therefore, I am here to apologize about the delay in chapters and kindly ask for your understanding because this month is not so merry for us.The story will resume soon.Thanks for your patience.#Much love!Virtually yours,O'Chantal.
RAINA’S POV-Valen’s brows creased, looking baffled. Then he tutted dismissively, not taking me seriously.“It is taking a toll on your body, and you must do it before Gamma Blayne releases her from the cells,” I said, searching his face, but all I saw was confusion. I dropped my gaze, afraid of his hesitation.Slipping his fingers from mine, he lifted my chin to bring my eyes to his. “Tell you what, I’ll send Mercedes back to Canada.” My chest tightened. “It’s not the same.” I lowered my gaze to keep my composure. I focused on the steady beating of his heart to smother the ache piercing through mine."Baby, look at me.” He demanded my eyes and when I flicked them up at him, he added, “There will never be a third party to our mate bond." His conviction was strong, and I wanted nothing more than to believe him.“Stop denying it.” I retorted, nudging him in the side with my elbow. “Mercedes came on board sometime last night, and you didn't even stop her.”Valen became serious now, and
RAINA’S POV-Goddess, I truly hoped I was wrong, but where the hell were they? Plus, it would be better to be there with Valen when he found them, or all hell would break loose.The rest of the day went by quietly. Mom and Dad went off to their meeting with Alpha Vance which ended before dinner. It was a somber event at the pack house with none of the usual light-hearted conversations, just small strategic talk and planning, heightening security, and so forth.Gamma Blayne was sending the elites in deep to help pinpoint the enemy's location. The warrior’s role was more to defend and support where they could block any retreat and aid if they could.Worry scraped on my heart. This wasn't cops and robbers and the bad guy would get jail time; this was life and death.Dad was supposed to flank in from the west and attack with Valen, who would be coming in from the southeast. Their plan sounds solid, but that’s if Valen returned safely. Other than that, something was bothering me, but I hav
VALEN’S POV-“You think you can threaten me.” I blasted, pumping a rigid fist at him as the vermillion red in my eyes marinated in resentment. “You think Selene can save you from me? Never see Raina, my mate, again in any lifetime, get it?”“I will, and I shall,” Gustav challenged."Shut the fuck up," I boomed with such immense power that the temple shivered, and foggy dust shot backwards.At my fastest speed, my feet thrust from the ground and I darted at him, too quick for him to dodge the clasp of my hand clutching his neck. I hoisted him off the ground by his throat, letting his feet dangle as they desperately searched for solid ground, while mine took root on the floor."You feeling tough now?" I growled with hatred in my voice.The Worgen extended his claws and sank them into my arm, piercing them deep until they hit the bone and my blood trickled out, splattering the floor. Because of that, I hurled him to the ground. He coughed and gasped for air, while struggling to stand up.
-VALEN’S POV-“Gustav!” I roared, nakedly stomping through the circular pillars with Zuzu perched on my right shoulder. “Get out here!”Chasing him brought me to Pindus in Greece at the Temple of Zannos. It was an albescent-white, Doric-styled, pentagon-shaped building that lacked care and was covered with limestone dust. On the walls were featured engravings of weapons and symbols that I also recognized were identical to the ones that were inscribed on the Worgens' foreheads.“No need to be so loud, Alpha Prince.” Gustav groused with his back to me. The hem of his cream trench coat carpeted the ground, right next to his enormous sword. “Even the gods can hear you shouting.”Up ahead in the dusty grand hall, he was down on one knee with his white head bowed to the light blue, marble, fifty-foot statue of Selene. She was gracefully sitting on a crescent moon with a beige wolf around her shoulders as she glanced down at the queen of the night flower she was holding up in her left hand. T
-VALEN’S POV-“Holy fuck.” I panted out as the sweet sensations rocked me.Her pouty candy-pink lips began moving up and down my length. She started bobbing her head back and forth. My hand coiled a large bunch of burgundy strands on the top of her head, helping her with the pace.“Deep breaths—yeah, take it.” My lips parted, and I blew out invisible puffs of air.The pleasure was overwhelming, almost making me forget what we were fighting about before. She picked up the pace, fisting the bottom of my shaft with one hand while she sucked the top and repeated.“So good, baby,” I remarked huskily. “Show me how badly you want it.”Already my balls were tensing up and stars exploded behind my eyelids as my orgasm drew near. She hummed around my dick, licking it good as I drew it out of her mouth.I grunted and thrust my hip forward with more force this time, hitting the back of my throat. Her pretty mouth was driving me nuts. The way her tongue moved against the ridges was giving me a whi
-RAINA’S POV-Yellow flags billowed in my head as the mood shifted sourly. Hot, angry puffs of air expelled from Valen’s nostrils. His blazing emeralds locked with my subtle blues.“Hold on a sec.” I scrambled to the edge of the bed and sat up with a frown. “That’s not what I’m saying.”“Really, Raina?” Valen asked me with hidden anger in his voice. “That crab-louse took Vaheed, and you aren’t in a hurry to get my brother back, especially since that’s the only way for us to find out what happened to Devin.”“I know that,” I muttered in a casual tone, licking my dry lips.“Vaheed isn’t with us because of him.” Valen’s voice rose, and he raked back his black hair with a frustrated hand. He turned and walked towards the glass doors to the balcony, aggressively parted the green drapes, and looked out into the gray sky.“I want to summon Gustav, but I don’t know how,” I expressed, feeling crappy that he had a valid point. “Plus you have that murderous gleam that you are going to kill him w
-RAINA’S POV-Brewing with optimism, I watched in awe as the lavender glow disbursed, engulfing Devin's body in a gentle aura of shimmering energy. Like an X-ray, it lit up his skeleton, making it visibly orange with red veins.It was as if the very essence of magic itself was sieving through him, whirling new life into his motionless form. His body was healing, closing the gruesome wound on his chest and reconnecting the superior vena cava."Hang in there, Duke. Your boy is strong. He can make it." Alpha Vance tried to provide some solace.Uncle Duke began pacing while ruffling a hand through his blonde hair. “Come on Smithson, the moon can’t have you today.”Valen's expression was one of intense concentration. His features were set in determination as he exerted more streams of his magic into Devin.For a moment, time seemed to stand still as we held our collective breath, waiting with bated anticipation for any sign of change.And then, it happened.A faint ripple sifted through De
