With a gentle smile, the moon goddess moved closer, her sapphire eyes sparkling with grace. "Can you still remember what I told you the first time we met?" The moon goddess asked.Vanessa's brow furrowed, trying to remember the details of that mysterious night.It had felt so clear, yet fragments of it slipped out of her mind. "I… I can remember your appearance, but the memory is kind of hazy. You said quite a lot of things, so I'm unable to guess which one," Vanessa admitted, a tinge of disappointment lacing her voice.The moon goddess reached out with her hand, her touch as gentle as moonbeam. "Look back in retrospect, Vanessa. The memory will come in time," the moon goddess said. And with that, Vanessa flashed back to the meeting of that night a week ago. She had slept earlier than usual because of how weak she felt. However, in the early hours of the morning, she felt a sudden chilly air envelope her and she could hear a faint whisper of her name in the air, so faint that she mis
Blackwood pack…Lynx sat alone in his chamber, surrounded by the ambient light of the room. He felt lost thoughts as his eyes zeroed in on a particular space in his chamber. Weeks had passed since he last made a move against the white phoenix pack.Alexander had remained vigilant, refusing to let down his guard. However, Lynx had set a new plan in motion to wipe out the entire white phoenix pack. "Zoey was right all along, there was no need for brute force. Alexander, this time I will outsmart you," Lynx uttered. A wicked grin crept upon his face as he imagined his moment of triumph– the satisfaction of crushing the white phoenix pack with his plan. The mere thought of it sent a chilling sensation down his spine.Just as he revelled in his plan, the door squeaked open and Zoey stepped into the chamber. Lynx could see guilt in her face, and he knew she wanted to apologize for what she had done."Zoey, trying to help Vanessa is simply going against me, and you wouldn't want to go again
"Alexander, are you not the one that came in earlier? You even walked to the washroom and came to the bed," Vanessa explained in shock."I was walking down the hallway when I noticed a strange shadow moving into the chamber," Alexander replied.Alexander quickly dashed out of the chamber to search for whoever that person was. Jasper, Vanessa's guard, and Sharon, her personal maid, kept trying all they could to calm Vanessa down and reassure her that Alexander will most definitely catch the intruder.Upon exiting the mansion, Alexander shifted into his wolf form and climbed a huge rock to have a good view of the surroundings. He knew there were a lot of shady things going on within the pack, and a rumor of a rogue being among them was flying around, but he barely paid attention to it.The intruder's scent still lingered around the chamber even after he left, and Alexander had registered that scent in his sixth sense. He knew it was the scent of a rogue, and that was the reason Vanessa
It was getting harder and harder for Alexander to find out who that strange man was as he never did any harm to Vanessa, but his aura oozes danger. He could perceive it from his scent, so who could it be? He wondered.He already has Elliott and a few of his undercover agents investigating the matter.According to the information they had gathered, Lynx was in his pack last night partying. So, he definitely didn't leave the comfort of his home to even come close to the white phoenix pack's borders.Alexander brought out his phone and began sending a text to Elliott when he heard the sound of footsteps approaching the dining room.He slowly gazed up to see Vanessa slowly walking down the stairs, looking so pretty and all dressed up and remarkably beautiful in just a simple, plain house wear."Vanessa, you are awake. Good morning dear," Alexander said."Good morning, love. I want to have breakfast with you here," she said with a bright smile on her face, and Alexander smiled at her back
"I… I'm sorry, Alpha Alexander. I couldn't protect Vanessa. They… They… took them…away," Jasper managed to speak, coughing out blood in the process."Who took them away?" Alexander yelled in frustration."They… They… were masked wolves," Jasper replied, and Alexander immediately knew it was the rogues.Then it became clear to him that the sudden attack at the borders was a trap to lure everybody away from the mansion. However, he couldn't understand two things. Firstly, why is it that it was when Lynx troops attacked the borders that the rogues attacked the mansion? Was it a coincidence or a carefully thought out plan? Secondly, how did the rogues have such access to the mansion? Apart from being heavily guarded, the mansion was surrounded by traps.A sudden call then interrupted his trail of thoughts. He walked over to the telephone placed on the wall to answer the call."Hello, Alpha Alexander," he heard a familiar, irritating voice say through the call in a mocking tone."Who is on
The mystery man put on his mask, and looked directly into Vanessa's eyes. Suddenly, Vanessa began looking quite pale as the mystery man's eyes glowed brightly, and everybody could realize that he was doing something to Vanessa.Vanessa tried hard to keep her eyes open but couldn't even stand straight on her two feet, she was feeling weaker and weaker with each passing second. Her eyelids were forcefully trying to shut tight on their own, and she knew her legs would soon give out.The mystery man released her and she came crashing down on the floor. Alexander, who banged the entrance door open, quickly ran over to her side and held her in his hand, and Vanessa could feel a sense of security as she noticed a muscular arm holding her. She slowly closed her eyes, and fell into a deep sleep.The mystery man slowly moved away from them and walked to the old woman by the corner. He bent down to her level and looked her directly in the eyes. "Shall we," he said to her, and she trembled lightl
Alexander opened his eyes with a gasp and found out that he was all alone in the old, abandoned building. He was tied up to the chair he had sat on. There was not a single soul around, and it seemed everyone had left since, with Vanessa. He looked towards the corner and found his phone close to the wall. The phone was ringing, and he stretched himself to look closer and he found that it was Elliott calling. He shifted into his wolf form, ripping off his clothes and the rope tied around him.He shifted back to his human form, and stumbled on his feet as he tried to reach out to his phone, he stood up back and picked up his phone. He answered the call and placed the phone on his ear."Come to the old, abandoned building in the woods, at the outskirts of the pack. Bring clothes and water along with you," Alexander said. His breath was shaky, and Elliott was about to say something, but Alexander was not interested in hearing it and cut the call.Alexander stood there, running his fingers
Alexander sat alone in the living room, his head bowed low and his fingers clenched when a familiar scent filled his nostrils. He looked up in confusion and followed the scent, trying to find where it was coming from. He could never mistake that scent– the scent of his beloved.He quickly got out of the living room and then to the courtyard outside. He tracked the scent out to the side of the mansion and found Zoey. She looked quite disheveled and out of breath as she kept panting uncontrollably. Alexander wondered what she was doing in his pack, but that's not what caught his attention. Standing next to Zoey was Vanessa. She was also panting, as though they had run for way too long."Alexander," Vanessa quickly rushed over to his side and hugged him lovingly. "I've missed you so much," she said, whining like a little child."I missed you too, but how did you come back? Why is Zoey here too?" Alexander asked as he got out of her embrace."Well, I found out that Lynx had captured Vanes
