* Alpha Xander *I can still feel the softness of her skin and the warmth of her body close to mine. As I walk towards my raptor in the parking of my Alpha mansion, my mind is left on the bed where she lies. She is still sleeping, safe and sound when I get off. I swore to the Moon Goddes to keep her safe and with me until the end.The cold metal door slowly opened as I pull the handle. I didn't mean to leave early however my responsibilities in the pack just tripled."Alex, are you at the eastern gates?"I heard his sigh on the mind link before he answered. "Good morning Alpha, yes I am here and thoroughly checking the place. Our warrior guards are well, staying alert to any sign of the enemies. We are safe on this side Alpha."I nodded and then started the engine, which means I will go around to the southern part of the gates. The checking of our borders is monitored every hour starting from the moment I wake up. Now it's time for Beta Alex to get some rest, he stays up all night tog
* Alpha Xander *Savannah and the other she-wolves have been inside their homes for the time being. I don't want them to leave the territory until I am sure of their business outside the gates. We are tightening all securities inside the Western pack and monitoring the borders all the time. It requires a lot of work but these are making me feel safer than before. More importantly, I can assure Alpha Zero of Nelika's safety.When the sun sets I look out through the window of the guard house on the southern border and exhaled."Alpha, the night shift warriors are almost here. Do you want me to relieve a message before you go?"I need Howard's gaze and shook my head. "No, I am staying to give them a few instructions. Let the day shift warriors leave if they want to, I am going to take a few minutes or an hour to talk with them.""Alright, I will inform the warriors but I am staying with you until you leave Alpha. I want to listen to whatever you want to instruct the night shift team in o
* Nelika *"Good morning Luna, good news today! Alpha Xander's mother arrived earlier this morning and is asking to meet you. We hope that she may never leave again so that Alpha Xander may not worry about her anymore.”The wide smile on Mrs. Clarin's lips has me blink twice as I watch her reflection from the tall and big dresser. Alpha Xander's mother, said that she is out of the region to forget about her tragic past in the pack. She mingles with humans preferably and helps them for a good cost."Oh! What a surprise! Did he know that his mother arrived? He shouldn't have gone to work today."I face the old help and begin to walk out of the bedroom while she follows behind. I have a feeling that Mrs. Harger is in the living room, sensing her presence inside the house. My mind is already starting to imagine how would she look like. Is she someone like Alpha Xander with a firm chiseled jaw and rarely smiles or does she look different? I can't think about his face in a female version.M
* Alpha Xander *"Why are you here?"Above everything else I thought would surprise me, I did not expect that it would be the comeback of my mother. She chooses to leave when the threats and chaos against the Western pack have almost made me lose hope. I can not blame her for that, but I wanted her safe more than anyone from my pack."My son. Xander, I know I left you when you needed me the most. I was wrong to do that but now that I am back I swear that I will never leave again. You are capable of keeping this pack together and now the presence of Nelika will even make you stronger."Her eyes held so many emotions that I can easily read. I know she cares about me deep within her, but it wasn't easy to believe that she will stay and never leave again."I don't have a problem with you wanting to leave again if that is what you wanted but I just want you to know that I am fighting a battle soon. This might be not safe for you if you stay."I walk towards the window and look at the outsi
* Nelika *Having my mother-in-law inside the Alpha mansion isn't a bad thing, I keep telling myself that after the whole day passed by and we decided to retire in the rooms. I wonder what's keeping me up still, maybe the fact that Alpha Xander has not come home yet or that I am having thoughts about how to act with my mother-in-law around the house. If it was my mother, maybe Alpha Xander would feel the same as I am feeling tonight.All of a sudden a loud thud came from the direction of Mrs. Harger's room and echoed in the air. I get up from lying down in the bed and then quickly headed for my bedroom door right away, opening it and looking both ways. It was so quiet in the hallway, but I was sure that something had made a sound. It seems like a heavy object fell on the floor. It made me feel curious so I get out of my room mindful that I only have a night dress on.The warrior guards are outside the mansion near the gates so there is no reason to feel uncomfortable that someone migh
* Alpha Xander *"Alpha Xander!"At any moment, his head will be crushed by the strength of my hand but a loud voice coming from Beta Alex made me stop as his hand placed behind my back. I struggled hard to fight my inner demon wolf as I controlled my anger and let him drop to the ground. The rogue made a whimpering sound as his body touch the hard and rocky floor of the jail grounds."I think that he will not say anything Alpha, but we cannot kill him yet, please."I let out a harsh breath and groaned in frustration, I wanted to snap his neck and just be done with it. How dare this lowlife came around the nearest part of the border! I gritted my teeth and shot him a glare. Then our attention is disturbed by the howling of the warriors on the Eastern border."What the hell was that!?"I asked Beta Alex as he froze and meet my gaze. Then another howl coming from the Western borders echoed in the air. "Alpha Xander, I think that we are being attacked!"The voices of the warriors guardi
* Alpha Xander *"You can all come to me at once! or you can attack one at a time, either way, none of you will get a hand on me!"They reply with a snarl and angry groan as I stood scornful with my eyes surveying them like prey. I am an Alpha and this rogues are no match against my power and strength. Fueled by my deep responsibility to protect the wolves of my pack and the mate that I have been waiting for all my life, I am not losing this fight tonight!"Mr. High and might Alpha? We admire your courage as expected however, we are not the one to fight you!"One of the rogues stated and then they all walk to the side and I was met with the strong presence of a wolf who just came. A wild and angry wolf with red eyes and a mouth showing long fangs and a scar on his neck. His wolf is bigger than the rest of the group. The rogue bows down as he walk slowly, not breaking eye contact with me."Oh! Are you the rogue leader who wishes to invade my pack?"I smirk and let out an angry growl. H
* Nelika *The noise outside has been really disturbing and it is making me worried. Wondering at the same time about Mrs. Harger and her actions so I run down the stairs and pull the door open expecting that the guards would give me a better explanation I also plan to get to the back house where Mrs. Clarins and Bella stayed. But the door knob refuses to turn open, it's locked from the inside. I look on top of the table and on the walls where there should be a spare key hanging but it is empty. Then I started opening drawers, searching the insides with my chest already thumping loudly I could hear myself."Come on! Where are those keys?"My eyes search everywhere but there is none. I opened the mind link to try and call for the guards but no one is responding to me. Then I heard the growls and howling of wolves fighting. Oh, my Moon Goddess of the West! I am certain that the enemies have pushed through the borders of the West. The howling of the warriors in the Western pack could no
* Nelika *Roses of different colours neatly covered each side of the aisle with a white soft carpet while I walk slowly in tune to the music playing in the air. My knees tremble in a three-inch white high heels but my father stood beside me holding my elbow for support. The big dome is crowded with important members from the Cold Mountain pack and the Western pack wolves including the Royal pack with the presence of Alpha King Jack who is present in the ceremony.It feels like forever waiting for this day to happen as both Alpha Xander and Alpha Zero, my father decided the day to hold our wedding. The sadness from the loss of our warrior and his mother has subsided in anticipation of our event. I am thankful that somehow Alpha Xander, overcome the sorrow of her death. My parents are there to help us and I did all I can to care for him and be aware of his fragile feelings, and then finally this day came."Relax sweetheart, we have been waiting for a long time to witness you in this ce
* Alpha Xander *My mother returned to dust just like the rest of the wolves whose lives has ended after the fight, and I stood there with so much regret. As I look back to when she was still alive and with me, I tell myself that I should not have let her go. I wasn't even aware that the enemies have gotten to her first. She was far from me, and I thought that she would be safer out there but now I realized how wrong I was and it is too late.The warriors have left me all alone to myself when I shed a tear of regret. There are so many ifs that my mind could only think of right now because it's too late. But my life has to go on being the Alpha of the West."Alpha Xander?"The lead warrior guarding the far Northern borders has taken my attention away from my mother and her ashes inside a porcelain jar that I am holding."Speak.""The Alpha of the North is approaching the borders, sir. I assume that you are aware of his visit today?"I stiffined and close my eyes before letting out a he
* Nelika *After I passed out and fell into a deep sleep I didn't know what happened. However, I trusted him, Alpha Xander will win the fight and I also felt the presence of my warriors from the North. They came to help the wolves of the West. My father would not let anything bad happened to me, I know he was worried about us. He sent an army to help us, I am sure that if I wake up, I would be in the safety of Alpha Xander's bed."Luna Nelika! Are you awake?"I brought my hand to rub my face and blink as I heard the words coming from Beta Alex."Alpha, she is awake!"Beta Alex is talking to him in the mind link. Alpha Xander, I thought that when I opened my eyes it is him who would greet me and check if I have a serious injury from the recent attack."He said that you should eat something Luna, he will be back soon."My whole body felt like I run a thousand miles on foot. I feel tired, but I am glad that the wound on my shoulders and my side have healed."Beta Alex? For how long was I
* Nelika *Her eyes pierce through me as she charges forward and raises her sharp claws and then I felt her made a swift move. It happened so fast that I just blink my eyes and then the pain in my neck cause me to cough and choke out with my own blood. My heart is bursting out inside my chest as I realized that she has cut out my throat and I am bathing in my own fresh blood. Is this the end for me?"Nelika!?"Yet from somewhere in the dark, I can hear his voice shouting my name. The desperation and the worry that he felt while I am fighting to grasp for air to come in inside my lungs. I wanted to live, he is coming."Nelika I'm here please stay with me..."The words came into my hearing even with my eyes already close as I am awake in the darkness of my surroundings. I felt the strong force coming from Alpha Xander beside me and the other wolf who cause my pain. I feel him using his power against her and the noise of the wolves around the Western pack. She is strong to be able to fi
* Nelika *I stayed a while in the guest comfort room after a few minutes passed by of talking to Alpha Vincent. I walk towards the door and press my ear on the wooden barrier. Mrs. Harger is waiting outside for me, I can feel her. It seemed quiet, but all of a sudden she came knocking on the door that my eardrums almost burst out."Sweetie! Are you alright? It's been a while since you were there. Please answer me!"She sounded harsh and her patience is running out, gone is the sweet and gentle mother that she was when we first meet and she came back to the mansion. I bit my lips thinking twice if I should answer her. But I remember Alpha Xander said to stay inside and don't come out until he comes."Come out! Come out now! Nelika! I am ordering you to get out of there!"Her hands are now banging on the door so hard, that I could only think of asking myself for how long it's gonna hold."No! I want to stay here until Alpha Xander comes. He said that I should wait for him."Her respons
