SELENA'S POV“Enough Selena!” Frustration in his voice, his brow furrowed and his jaw clenched.“That was in the past and you know it.”I could feel anger welling up inside me, and I pressed on, determined to get to the truth.“Really? Is that what you tell yourself? Then explain your actions today, Alpha Duncan.”His face turned red and his hands balled into fists at his sides. It was clear he was really angry, but I didn’t care.“You’ve been insecure ever since Amora came back to the pack, even though I’ve reassured you over and over again that I love you and only you. So what else do you want me to do?”He ran a hand through his hair, and I could tell he was on the verge of losing his temper. I knew I was pushing his buttons, but I couldn’t help it.The thought of Amora taking my place in his heart was too much to bear.“Why are you getting angry at me? She is trouble and I can feel it in my bone.Just let her leave Apha Duncan.Her reasons for coming back ain’t a good one I’m sure
ALPHA DUNCAN’S POVKnock Knock!I jumped at the sound of the knock, startled out of my trance.“Who’s there?” I asked, suddenly feeling self conscious about the way we’d been lost in each other’s eyes just moments before.Amy opened the door, a mischievous smile on her face.“Just me, with a few updates for you both. Sorry to interrupt.” she said, her eyes looking from me to Selena.I could feel the blood rushing to my cheeks as I realized how silly we must have looked, standing there staring into each other’s eyes.“You’re not interrupting anything… we were just….dancing.” I smiled and walked back to my chair.I looked up at Amy who was just smiling a mischievious smile.“What’s the update?”She opened the file she brought and handed them to me.“It’s about the winter festival updates. We haven’t decided about the other pack leaders we should invite and also since that day is going to be your wedding, I think we have to invite them for it or it might raise another issue.”I opened th
SELENA’S POVWe anxiously waited for Alexa to reveal who he feels could have visited Alpha Fredrick before he escaped prison.“According to what the guards said, the person didn’t look like a male, but had the features of a female.”“A female!” I exclaimed, a look of shock on my face.Alexa nodded.“Mmm-mmm”I could feel the tension in the room as we waited for Alexa to continue. He took a deep breath before speaking again.“The guards said that the person was wearing a cloak, so they couldn’t see their features very well.” he walked towards Alpha Duncan to reveal the sketch description of the person.“But they could see that the person had long hair, and were shorter than average height.”Alpha Duncan looked at the sketch for a while before he spoke.“Do you have an idea who it might be?” he asked,looking up at Alexa who shooked his head.“I’m afraid I don’t Alpha.”“We don’t know who it could be, but we are still searching and hopefully we would soon.”Alpha Duncan nodded.As I stoo
SELENA’S POVI stood there, shifting my weight from foot to the other, my eyes scanning the room for anything suspicious.I could sense that Amora was trying to figure out what was in my mind.“Selena… why are you here in my room?” Her eyes not blinking.“I….um… wanted to ask you that….” I stammered, trying to say the words, but realized that I was finding it difficult to say it.“You wanted to ask me what?” Amora stared her lookI could feel my mouth going dry, my heart racing in my chest. I took a deep breath trying to compose myself.“What’s your real reason for coming back to the pack Amora? After all you said yourself that you didn’t come because of Alpha Duncan.So what’s your real reason for returning to the pack?” I managed to say, as I looked at her trying to read her facial expression.She rolled her eyes and walked away from me, moving close to a table near her bed.“I don’t have a reason for coming. I just came here to be with my pack members that’s all.” She moved her sho
SELENA’S POVBecause once I become his Luna during the winter festival, there’s no place for you in his life not now, not ever.”Amora’s face turned red and I could see that my words got to her. She got up and faced me.“You think you’re special to him don’t you. But let me assure you, Selena that the time will come when you will realize that Duncan was never yours to begin with.”I slapped her and stared at her with my eyes blazing with anger and my heart beating seriously.We stood there both our hearts beating. We were obviously angry.Amora placed her hand on her cheek. I could see the shock in her eyes, but I didn’t care.“Whatever your reasons are that made you return back to the pack, I came here to tell you that you’ll never succeed, Amora.”She smiled a grim smile at me and raised her head to look straight into my eyes.“You’ll find out soon enough why I returned to my pack, Selena. You wait and see.Now, get the hell out of my room!”As I turned to leave, Amora stepped forwa
SELENA’S POV“Alright, here’s what we’ll do.” I began leaning close to Amy to tell her my plan.She shifting closer to me as well as she listened to what I had to say.“We’ll wait until Amora goes to the pack meeting tonight. That’s when we’ll make our move.You’ll create a distraction to draw her away from her room, and I’ll sneak in and search for any clues I can find.”I looked at Amy to see if she was on board with the plan. But I could sense her unease as she got up.“Do you think it’ll work?” her voice doubtful of my plan.“I mean what if Alpha Duncan catches you spying on Amora. He might get really angry with you.”I got up from the bed and went towards her. “It’s our best shot, Amy.”Amy looked at me, biting her lip as she was trying to make up her mind.Then she turned to me obviously about to ask me a question.“What if this was all Amora’s plan huh? To make you enter her room and search it so that Alpha Duncan could catch you and then you guys end up having a serious argum
SELENA’S POVShe took a really deep breath and nodded.“Okay then. Let’s do this.”With that, we went into action. I felt like a spy on a mission and it kinda felt good, but risky.Heck I didn’t know what I was doing, but I knew I needed answers as to why I keep having this feeling that Amora was up to something and she didn’t return to the pack to be with her pack members but came for a reason.This was the only way to find out. I made my way to Amora’s room as Amy went for the pack meeting to distract Amora and buy me more time to search her room.I opened the door to her room and let myself in. Everything wasn’t as I remembered it. The bed was neatly made and the room was clean and tidy not like when I first entered her room.Why did she arrange her room all of a sudden? I thought to myself as I looked around her room thinking about where to start from.Then I saw it. On her desk there was a small notebook. I walked over to it and picked it up. My hands were shaking a bit as I open
ALPHA DUNCAN’S POVBefore she could say anything. My hand clamp down on her arm. She looked up at me, I could see something else in her eyes, but I couldn’t quite place it yet.She tried to pull away but my grip on her was strong.“I asked you a question, Selena. What the hell were you doing in Amora’s room?”She looked at me with a frown in her face.“No, you don’t get to talk to me like that.”“You immediately picked, Amora’s side without hearing my own.”I looked at her with confusion and anger.“You don’t know what you did right?”“No, I don’t. So why don’t you tell me huh?” she shot back at me, clearly angry as well.“You sneaked into her room and hid in her closest and you felt you didn’t do anything wrong? What the hell is wrong with you Selena?Are you that insecure? Are you that jealous that you couldn’t control your feelings and decided to investigate if she was trying to come in between us?”I looked at Selena, trying to understand what had just happened. I had seen her ent
A New Beginning The moon was bright in the night sky, shining over the pack’s territory. The scent of flowers filled the air, a nice scent soothing to the senses. All seemed at peace in Duncan’s pack, a stark contrast to the stormy events that had happened in recent times. Selena now Luna of the pack, stood on the balcony of their home, her eyes fixed on the stars. The scars of the past were slowly healing, but the memories of their trials were still fresh in her mind. A warm breeze ruffled her hair, and she placed a hand gently on her swollen belly. Life had taken an unexpected turn and Selena had found herself carrying a new life again, a symbol of hope and resilience. Duncan’s second child would soon grace the world with its presence, a testament to their enduring love. Inside the pack house, their daughter Muna slept soundly in her crib. Selena had named her after the brave Muna who sacrificed herself to save her because of a promise she had kept to Alpha Duncan. Duncan step
ALPHA DUNCAN’S POVI stayed by Selena’s side as she recovered. It was already five days six hours, twenty five minutes and thirty seconds she had been in the pack hospital after the C section.Doctor Otsuki couldn’t explain why she had not woken up after the procedure.Just then, she opened her eyes faintly and looked at me.“Hey there.” I said, smiling at her.“Welcome back. How are you feeling?”“My baby….” she whispered, her voice weak.“Our baby is doing great.” I assured her as I held her hands.“The doctor has been checking on her regularly, and she’s perfectly healthy.”She let out a sigh of relief and closed her eyes again.“Try to rest.” Sitting back in my chair.“You need to take it easy and recover.”She shook her head.“No…. I need you to help me find… Alpha Duncan…. Have you gone to Alpha Owen’s pack yet, Alexa….?”I smiled realizing she was still not sure I was the one sitting next to her. The drugs must still be working in her system as she was seeing me as Alexa and no
SELENA’S POV“Oh my god.” Amy said, her eyes wide.“What do we do? We need to get her to the pack doctor fast!”I tried to stand up, but the pain was so intense that I couldn’t.“Help me, please.” I said, my voice weak.“I need to get to the doctor.”Amy held me and told Alexa to help me up so that they could take me to the pack doctor so I could deliver.“But the baby isn’t due until two weeks, why is she coming now?”“I guess it’s because of the baby realized that they mother was stressed out by the news she just heard.Anyways, we need to move her fast.” Alexa said, as he held me and helped me up to take me to the pack’s doctor.The journey to the pack’s doctor was agony. Every bump and turn was magnified a thousand times.I clutched at my stomach, trying to breathe through the pain. I was sweating profusely, and I felt I was going to pass out.But I knew I had to stay strong. I had to stay strong for my baby. I couldn’t give up.I knew that Alpha Duncan would be counting on me to
SELENA'S POVAs they got closer, I recognized them. It was Alexa and the other pack fighters. They were walking towards the pack house, and they were all okay. I felt a wave of relief wash over me, and I rushed to open the door.I looked around for Alpha Duncan, but he was nowhere to be seen.Alexa walked up to me with a sad expression.I looked at him and asked.“Where's Alpha Duncan....?"He sighed...“We.... Um.... we...lost...him...." He stammered as tears rolled down his eyes.I felt like my heart had stopped beating. I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. I felt like the world was crashing down around me. I reached out and grabbed Alexa’s arm, shaking my head.“No…” I whispered. “No, that can’t be true. It’s not true.”But Alexa just looked at me with a sad smile. “I’m so sorry. I know this is hard, but it’s true.”I felt like I was going to collapse. I felt like my entire world had crumbled. I had lost the man I loved, the man I was going to spend the rest of my life with.
SELENA'S POVAnd it wouldn’t be healthy for myself and the baby.So I decided to take Amy up on her offer.“I think I will.”“I’ll go for a walk and get some fresh air.”“Okay… that’s a start.” Amy said, as she smiled.I got up and walked towards the door but remembered something and turned to Amy who was right behind me.“Where’s….. Amora?”“She’s…. still in the dungeon…. Why?” Amy answered, looking at me with a suspecting expression.I shook my head.“Nothing… I just asked.”I could tell that Amy wasn’t convinced, but she didn’t say anything else about it. She just smiled at me and nodded.“Okay then. Enjoy your walk. And remember to take it easy. Don’t overdo it, okay?”I nodded and took a deep breath, feeling better already.“I will. And thanks for the suggestion. I think I needed this.”Amy gave me a warm smile and patted me on the shoulder. “You’re welcome. And have fun.”I walked out of my room and out of the pack house and headed to the park around the pack house.The air was
SELENA’S POVI watched through my window of my room as the pack fighters left the pack to find Alpha Fredrick and end his plans to stop the peace they were beginning to enjoy.I wasn’t okay with the fact that Alpha Duncan had to leave, but I knew that his mind was already made up so I knew there was no use in convincing him to stay.Tears ran down my face as I worried about his return.I closed my eyes and I tried to calm my mind. I knew that worrying would not help the situation, but it was really difficult to stop the anxious thoughts from swirling around my head.I took a deep breath, and I tried to focus on the positive. Alpha Duncan was strong and brave, and I knew that he would do everything in his power to keep our pack safe.Still, my heart ached for him. I wished that there was another way, but I knew that this was the only option.I looked out the window, and I saw the pack fighters disappearing into the distance.I tried to focus on my thoughts, trying to keep them positive
ALPHA DUNCAN'S POV“I'll have that person arrested!" She moved closer and tried to hold my hand, but I removed my hand in annoyance.“Don't touch me! I said who let you out without my permission?!"Amora took a step back, fear in her eyes.“No one let me out, Alpha,” she said. “I... I broke out.”I stared at her in disbelief.“You broke out?” I asked, my voice incredulous. “How did you do that?”“I found a weak spot in the bars,” she said. “I'm so sorry, Alpha, I just... I couldn't stay there. I had to see you.”I was furious that she had escaped.“You escaped yourself huh?Do you know that you are becoming more unpredictable...I just don't know you anymore, Amora."Amora's eyes widened, and she looked at me with a pleading expression.“I heard that you want to go and attack Alpha Fredrick in his hideout.I don't think you should, Duncan.It's dangerous."I stiffened, my grip on her hand tightening.“You heard wrong,” I said, my voice icy. “I have no such plans. Whoever told you th
ALPHA DUNCAN'S POVI took a deep breath and looked into Selena's eyes, trying to reassure her.“I do need to have a meeting with the other pack leaders, but it won't be possible for all of them to be available at the same time. Some of them are busy with important matters in their packs, so it's best to go and stop Alpha Fredrick before things get out of . “I know you're worried, but I'll be careful. I'll take every precaution possible to keep myself safe.”I reached out and took her hands in mine, feeling the tension in her body.But she removed her hands looking not pleased with my decision.Selena looked at me, her eyes filled with worry. She didn't say anything, but I could tell that she was trying to find the right words to express how she felt. I waited patiently, letting her gather her thoughts. Finally, she took a deep breath and spoke.“It's not that I don't trust you or that I don't believe that you can take care of yourself,” she said, her voice trembling slightly. “Bu
SELENA'S POV“What happened?"When I found out what Amora had done, I was shocked and angry.” he said, his voice full of emotion.“I confronted her about it, and she admitted that she had been working with Alpha Fredrick. She said she was sorry and that she never meant to hurt anyone.”I wasn't sure what to say. I felt a mixture of emotions, from anger to sadness to confusion.“What did you say to her?” I asked, holding his hand.Alpha Duncan sighed, his expression somber.“I told her that I was disappointed in her and that I couldn’t trust her anymore.” His voice filled with sadness.“I said that I needed time to think about what to do next. I wasn’t sure if I could forgive her, or if I wanted her to stay in the pack.I could see the pain in his eyes, and my heart went out to him. He had trusted Amora, and she had betrayed that trust.“I also asked her to tell me where Alpha Fredrick is hiding and what his plans were.”“Okay… and what did she say?” I asked.At first, she didn’t want
