Derek:It took me a lot longer than I would ever admit to return to normal.In the wake of Alisha’s abrupt exit, I felt the stinging pain of rejection, and the bitter taste of defeat on the top of my tongue.It felt truly awful: like a burning in my chest and a heaviness that left me reminded of the two years Alisha hadn’t been in the pack or in my life by my own stupid mistakes.I left the portrait room and went back to the study, my body moving on autopilot. The zeal I had to hang out with my friend and his mate (and possibly include Alisha in the mix) had vanished straight into thin air.I had made another mistake, and I knew it. It was just another in the long list of reasons why Alisha refused to return to me.I shouldn’t have brought the children into our disagreeable relationship. I had known it was wrong but somehow I had been a little desperate. I knew that Alisha would never have the heart to say no to anything the twins asked her, and thought I could take advantage of it.“

Alisha:The sounds of multiple voices kept on ringing in my head. I felt like I was drowning, and tried to cover my ears, but it felt like I was reaching for air. I looked down at my hands and saw they were stained with blood.“You killed them,” I looked up as I saw a maniacally grinning Sebastian. His green eyes glowed like a curse, and I immediately got angry and was about to charge at him when I found my legs couldn’t move.I looked down and saw my feet were stuck in what looked like concrete.“You killed them, Alisha. You should have just let go,” My heart rate spiked as I turned and saw that it was Mischa, who looked mournful. She held a bundle in her arms and I saw blood dripping from it.It didn’t take me long to figure out what it was and a cry split from my lips,My babies!No!“No!”I jolted upwards panting and pressing my hands against my fast beating heart. The dream slowly faded away but the fear didn’t and I gulped in breaths like they were water before shakily leaving t

Alisha:I opened my eyes, feeling like I had cotton wool in my mouth. My limbs were heavy and it took some time for me to realize that I was actually still in the floor, and had fallen asleep some while ago.Sitting up with a slight groan after some moments staring up into the ceiling, I realized that it was dark outside and I turned tk the clock and saw the time.It was already a couple of minutes past six.“Holy shit,” I breathed, standing up at once. My muscles were stiff but I slowly looked around, somehow not believing that I could have slept through the entire afternoon.How had I let myself drift off for so long?I jolted at the sound of the knock on my door.“Yes?” My voice croaked out and I suddenly became aware of how thirsty i was. Going over to the door I opened it and Simon stood there looking worried.“Sorry I was asleep for so long,” I apologized to him but before I could say any more he pressed the back of his palm to my forehead and felt it.“You feel a lot better no

Derek:To say I was once again heartbroken, was an understatement. I stared at the crumpled up paper for a short while as I heard Alisha’s panting, as though she had run a mile.Then she let out a tired long breath.“This isn’t working,” she muttered to herself and shaking her head. “Can’t you see that I want to be left alone? I want you to stay away from me and you can’t even do that. I’m leaving, if you won’t. I have to rest.“She stood and was just about ready to do as she said when I spoke abruptly, stopping her in her tracks.“I know that you hate me,” I had said, feeling entirely awful.It was true; I had believed that I could charm her and make her come back to me but each time I ignored what she was telling me. She truly hated me. Now I could see that her anger at me had festered into something that I couldn’t change.“No,” she responded to my surprise, looking at me once more. Her eyes looked sad. “I don’t hate you. I wish I could because that would make it easier Derek, but

Alisha:I opened my eyes to the sight of the sunlight streaming in through the window.It took me a couple of long seconds to blink lazily at the sight before I got up.What had happened last night?I felt a lot better than I had in days, and I couldn’t imagine why.Not until it occurred to me.I had gone through the night with full uninterrupted sleep.No nightmares reminiscent of memories had overshadowed my desire to rest this time.My brows furrowed briefly; what had caused this?Then it hit me like a truck and I recalled what had happened.Derek.I had argued with him.I felt my face warm at remembering how I had in effect, broken down and sobbed I to his shoulder. It should have felt more embarrassing than it did. But I somehow didn’t mind it. Feeling Derek’s arms around me as he comforted me had made me remember why I loved him so much.A groan left my lips and I buried my face in my hands. Did that mean I truly forgave him for what he had done to me? And could i brush those em

Alisha:Melissa sounded so concerned as she said, “I heard you were sick darling. I wanted to check on you but Simon advised me not to. Are you better now?”I nodded and smiled inwardly, feeling grateful to have Simon by my side. If not for him I might not have gotten some space.& was glad he could read my horrible mood and acted accordingly. Perhaps I’d cook something nice for him tomorrow evening?“I’m alright now. I feel a lot better,” I assured the older woman, as she gently patted my cheeks.My gaze turned to Mischa, who was holding a bag that had caught my curiosity.“What’s going on? What’s in the bag?” I asked them both and Mischa huffed.“We came to dress you up. It’s a full moon festival,” Mischa explained, to which Melissa nodded.“I hope you don’t mind dear. It was my idea,” Melissa added. “You haven’t been in the pack for too long and you haven’t enjoyed a festival in years. Mischa told me about it. So I thought to make this one a little special.”I couldn’t refuse, and s

Alisha:I continued, “It’s a bad idea in all aspects. I don’t want to make things complicated between Derek and I again. Because this time it’s not only going to affect us but also affect our children. And I don’t want the twins to think something’s wrong between their mother and father. There’s also other matters that pose an obstacle, too, as you very well know.”“You mean with the Silver Moon Pack and Sebastian,” my best friend understood.“And Gerard as well, who’s still the Beta whether we like it or not,” I pointed out to her clear dislike. “And that means he will involve himself in our business if he ever found out I had returned. He wants his daughter to marry Derek, and that alone is enough motivation for him to not want to see us succeed.”Those thoughts were really not the best ones to have because it made me not have a favorable idea of what would happen. Even though I still had hope Derek and I could possibly work out, I had to be realistic.“I understand everything you’r

Alisha:By the time the sun began to set, Mischa and I had eaten wh oute a lot. With full stomachs and hearty chuckles we made our way to the clearing where most of the party was being held. The music was beautiful, and I enjoyed watching everyone dancing among themselves. A couple had shifted into their wolf forms and ran around, playing with each other.This was a time of celebration and love and to enjoy the blessings of the moon goddess.Mischa had already left to find Benjamin, and I, alone, went over to a corner and watched the dancing by myself. Pulling back the veil, i enjoyed the sights.As I did I was nearly startled by the sound of a twig snapping. Tugging the veil over my face at once, I whipped around to see Derek, who raised his hands up to show he meant well.“Mischa told me where to find you,” he explained, even though he couldn’t see my questioning look through the veil.I was speechless as he brought out a cask of mead from behind him, with two metalGoblets.“Would

EPILOGUE IIIALISHATWENTY YEARS LATER“Mmm,” I grunted as I sat up, my back hurting after using Derek’s body as a pillow.He had woken up early and left the bed, I remembered, after giving me a kiss as usual.I shouldn’t have drank so much.We were all getting on in years now, and though I had clocked forty-one last night, I still had a long life ahead of me.I smiled to myself as I remembered the way Misch, Benjamin, Hilda, mark and Derek had coerced me to take not one, not two, but THREE whiskey shots.Damn them all for being able to hold their liquor while I, barely used to drinking even at my age, had NOT.“So damn unfair,” I muttered under my breath, and thought briefly about postponing the training session I had with Mischa, Markson and Erika.The two children had grown up so fast, and were already 19 and 20 respectively, already becoming accomplished warriors at their age.Erika was much like her mother, a consummate warrior. I smirked as I remembered the way that Mischa and I

EPILOGUE IIHilda:I opened the windows of the kitchen to let in the fresh air, and enjoyed the beautiful scents of spring. My nose in the air, I sniffed, and ended up my twitching a little.I had grown sensitive to the scent of pollen around the air ever since I had given birth to Alis, my lovely daughter.She was five now, and a delightful little one to have. I began with the task of preparing lunch, as breakfast had long passed. The children would be coming over today and I also needed to go out to get some herbs and meats for dinner and breakfast tomorrow.Somehow, my role in the Red Wolf pack had settled into becoming a part-time assistant for Doctor Simon, who was soon retiring, and handling the children. Meaning, Alisha’s and the Alpha’s four children, Mischa’s and the Beta’s daughter, and mine.That was often a lot to handle, but I many ways I enjoyed it. I loved having children around me and hearing the sounds of their laughter. It reminded me of my own voice which had been s

EPILOGUE IDerek:“…And they all lived happily ever after,” Alisha finished, smiling at the dozing faces of our twins.Finally, I thought with a light chuckle. Some peace and quiet.The head of my son killed on my chest and I gently carried him out of his sister’s bed, and took him over to his own bed.Meanwhile Alisha strengthened, and I heard her take a deep breath.Her abdomen had rounded delightfully, growing our baby in her.Her due date was soon, according to Simon the last time he checked over her. And each day I prayed I wouldn’t have anything that would take me out of the pack long term, because I didn’t under any circumstances, want to be out of the pack when she gave birth. I had missed the birth of my older two children due to my own foolish mistakes, I didn’t want to miss this next one at all.“What are you thinking about?” Alisha asked me, as though she could read my mind.I smiled at her, knowing the best way to rile her up.“Our bet,” I replied with, and felt y grasped

Alisha:I opened my eyes to the sound of birds chirping. The sheets were warm underneath my body and I felt peace within me.There was finally a conclusion, I thought, to the pain and suffering, the hiding and secrecy that had been occurring for ages now.Now I could calmly walk down the streets of our pack with my twins in hand and not fear that Gerard would show up. I could embrace my relationship with Derek fully without needing to second guess myself.Sebastian was Gone.And Gerard, was Gone.Everything was well.“Hello, love,” i felt an arm I knew to be Derek’s worm its way around my waist and I smiled at the contact.It had been several days since I moved back into his home- now OUR home, and I had never felt more complete in my life.“Good morning,” I murmured to my mate, feeling his lips on the back of my neck. I turned my head and met his lips with mine, and I close my eyes as my body felt alive, wrapped up in his.“What are you thinking of?” He asked me as our lips parted an

Benjamin:“Oh goddess,” Mischa’s sigh made me smile. “That was some workout.”We lay side by side facing each other in the dark, sweat sheen over our naked bodies.“I’m glad you feel that way,” I chuckled at my mate’s words, wrapping my arms around her and pulling her closer.The scent of her hair drove me crazy, and I wondered like so many times before what kind of oil she used on it. She was always taking care of her curls with expert ease.Only the bathroom light was on in the entire house, leaving a trail of light towards our bedroom, and I enjoyed the sounds of silence, thinking about how the day had gone so quickly with all the happenings. I was glad that finally, Gerard was condemned for execution, and Sebastian, the thorn in our sides that had troubles us so much, had eventually been taken out.“Things are going to go smoothly from here on out,” Misch murmured and I marveled silently at how we always seemed to think the same thing. Almost like we knew each other since we were

Derek:I turned to glance at the Silver Moon Pack warriors who watched me and Sebastian as their Alpha lay curses on them.In their eyes I saw defiance and weariness, and I smirked inwardly.“Do you think they would come to your aid now that you’ve finally been taken off their hands?” I sniggered at Sebastian, who flared up at me. It wasn’t very much effective as he probably hoped it would be, for his eyes were swollen form the best down I had given him.“YOU ARE ALL TRAITORS!” Sebastian was livid, baring his teeth maniacally at his men. “I will KILL YOU ALL!”“Not if I have anything to say about it.”Kaiden’s voice reached me and I smiled. So the Beta did arrive.Sebastian’s face upon hearing Kaiden’s voice was nothing compared to his expression when his Beta entered the scene with the rest of their pack’s men.“You!” Sebastian spat in Kaiden’s direction, and the Beta only regarded Sebastian with indifference. “What the duck are you doing here? Disobeying my orders?!”“Your orders me

Alisha:Sebastian’s declaration made me want to retch hi whatever was left in my stomach since last night’s dinner.Well, he hasn’t changed one bit I thought. He was every bit as reprehensible as I remembered. The sense of entitlement he still had over me made me furious as well.However I was content to let Derek fight this battle for the both of us. Talking with him would only give me a headache.“Is that so?” Derek said, a calm look on his handsome features. “I had no idea you can still lay claims on someone who has absolutely nothing to do with you. And your threats, Sebastian, are nothing more than words to me. You know you will never win against me.”That served to drive Sebastian more into unbridled rage and frustration.“Alisha is mine!” He growled.Derek took a step forward, and I saw the tension in his jawline and neck as he all but spat out, “She was NEVER yours! She is MY mate, and mine alone! You made that very clear with the way you treated her when you had the chance! A

Derek:The trial had filled me with pain and guilt from the get go. Knowing that my mother had to reveal her past with my father brought me no measure of relief.But thanks to her and Alisha,The door suddenly opened and a guard rushed inside, panting as though he had run a full mile.“What is this?!” The Elders were incensed upon the trial’s interruption.“Silver Moon Pack warriors are out our gates!” The guard blurted out in such a loud voice.Immediately I went rigid. Alarm filled my body and I looked to Alisha who met my eyes at the same time.Sebastian was at our door. And that news brought a chaos that shattered the peace of the meeting hall.I could see the Pack Elders themselves had begun to lose their heads and it made me grit my teeth in frustration.“Everyone please be calm,” Alisha’s voice was like a steady lighthouse in the storm. “Now isn’t the time to panic. We can’t let this distract us. I believe we have to move against Sebastian at once. But Gerard must be put behind

Alisha:I looked to the Elders, all of whom were shocked into silence at Melissa’s confession.“Things got so bad, that I had been unable to have another child. Or rather, I couldn’t carry the pregnancies to term. That was because, due to many of Marcus’ actions, I would end up having a miscarriage before long. There were several times…” she swallowed heavily. “That I had to deal with those losses without any support.“Hearing that shocked me to my core; she had never told me this before! Turning to glance at Derek, I saw pain on his face, and knew he hadn’t heard of this either.How badly he must feel, I thought, to see his mother this way.Every part of me longed to comfort them, but I knew I couldn’t put a stop to this trial just yet.Melissa took a deep breath and exhaled slowly before continuing. “That night Marcus died, was another of his worse nights. Derek stopped him, and Marcus tried to attack him. No… he tried to KILL his own son. And Derek had no choice but to defend himse
