My Luna Hates Me: Winning Back His Luna's Heart New Rules
Xander's POVWhen it was time for us to leave in the morning, I was beginning to feel reticent. My heart was back with Ember but there was nothing that I could do only to get her to come back with me. At least I had to make sure that certain things were put in place before returning to fight for her.Unbeknownst to anyone, I had scouted the house to know the easiest places to penetrate. One of the greater mistakes that Trent made was allowing me into his house and that was one of the reasons that made me tarry."Your ex-wife has been staring at me like I had wronged her. I don't know what you see in her." Ellie whispered unto me, cutting me out of my thoughts. I was pissed by that untimely interruption. What nonsense was that? I didn't tell her that I needed anything from her. "Are you just going to ignore me?""What am I supposed to do? Beat her so that you know that I heard you." I barked at him. She was not happy with me and I didn't want to have anything to do with her now npt af

Ember's POVI was lounging on the deck of the house, deciding to be all by myself after making sure that my kids were well fed and also due to the fact that I was experiencing withdrawal symptoms akin to addicts. Who would have thought that I'd be missing Xander so badly. Something had changed on the night of that Solstice and I wanted to get it back. My mind kept drifting to that man as much as I wanted to control it. My eyes laid on the scenery before me.A part of me wanted all of these to never have happened in the first place. It was all Trent's fault for inviting that unsuspecting criminal into our midst. He was a criminal because I knew that he was trying to steal my heart which was going to be impossible. Seeing that I was probably giving myself a big headache, I reached for my pencil and a paper and began to sketch designs on it. I didn't know when I had managed to finish sketching up to tej designs in a space of... I glanced at my watch, "Twenty minutes. That's fast."I gr

Ember's POV I went still at his words. Firstly, because it was a given. It was supposed to happen naturally between couples and I was making things difficult for him. "Oh,... That's sweet." I replied tactfully because I didn't want to say anything that'd make him know that my heart has left a long time ago He stared at me with a challenge in his eyes. "I don't know what is happening with you. You've been disturbed a long time. Is there anything that I can do for you?" Staring at the man who was showing me love like no other made my heart pull like strings. I would have had a reason to hate him but he was very good to me that all I felt was guilt. "I am good. I am just healing softly." My heart got twisted for a while when I saw his brows twist in concern. "I'm getting fed up with these excuses. I know that they are just means for you to avoid this issue and I truly didn't know why." He said and I felt bad. "Tell me what is wrong with you and I'll see what I can do. Is your b

Ember's POVGetting out of that delicate situation proved to be a herculean task. All that I could think of was the fact that I probably had to start thinking of ways to leave.He was getting angry about the lack of physical intimacy which he deserved to be but I was also scared that one of these days he might just flip. We weren't on speaking terms for the most of the week and I avoided him to the best of my ability.Running my business religiously had to be the best thing that I had going for mebecause I needed something else that would make everything work out smoothly. My eyes were rotating at one point, and I felt like something was actually wrong with me. Sonia walked closer to me and tapped my arm drawing me out of my reverie. I was a bit tired about my predicament. Thinking at all times wasn't going to do good to my system. "Luna, a few Alphas would be coming soon. I hear that they're arriving in the evening. We need to prepare for their arrival."I nodded, pretending like
My Luna Hates Me: Winning Back His Luna's Heart In deep shit
Ember's povUpon my arrival downstairs, I met two guards who were also running into the compound, filled with worry and fear they began to pant. ", Luna, the pack is on fire." They delivered the message and I was angry."What do you mean by that?" I asked them and proceeded to run towards the site when someone dragged me back and I was confused as to why he was doing that. He raised his hands and stared at me. "I'm sorry but the alpha says that you shouldn't be here at this time. He specifically requested that you stay here so that we don't have any issues later, ma'am." He explained.I glared at him. The hell with him and his Alpha. What the hell was wrong with these people? "Get your hands off me right now before I do what I'd greatly regret." I warned him and he moved back quickly. I was pissed by the nonsense that he was trying to do. It wasn't going to work with me. I was going to make sure that they didn't do anything that'd deter me from seeing my kids. Was it that easy to gi
My Luna Hates Me: Winning Back His Luna's Heart Rescuer
Ember's POVTwo thoughts ran through my mind. Firstly, I didn't know what animal had snuck into the safe tunnel. It was almost like being stuck between the devil and the deep blue sea. I needed to leave as soon as possible.The footsteps that were approaching stopped and I knew that they had also heard the warning that I did. I was probably trapped with an animal. The next thing I did was to bolt from that place. That was the only option, if not I was going to die. It let out a growl again before chasing after me.Now this was a mess because the mud had become sticky, the rogues that had come in after me had messed up the place. I was doing too many things at the same time. I was making sure that my legs were stepping on the right places so that I didn't get sucked up in the puddle that could make me slip and fall.Louder growls echoed from the tunnel as it ran towards me. Man, I was competing with a highly skilled animal.I jumped when I felt the ram of its horns at my butt. Shit!

My Luna Hates Me: Winning Back His Luna's Heart Mystery man
Ember's POVI froze when I saw that there was probably something wrong somewhere, my eyes were focused on the rescuer and before I knew what was happening, I had been plucked out of the way only for the wolf to ram into the wall. I clung to the person holding me like a monkey would to a tree. It was a relief that I was able to find support. I turned to see the growling wolf. It had red eyes and a large tail, it was totally different from the kind of wolves that we were used to. "Who sent you?" The man demanded. His grip was still strong as he helped me. I would have had a problem with him holding me in my intimate area close to his. But I think that was the furthest thing in his mind. Sadly, he was wearing a mask that I really wanted to pull off before remembering that he would be distracted and that would do me no good. The wolf growled in response. It was angry but I wondered at what. For all I knew I didn't offend it.The man's gaze remained ahead but he spoke. "You need to ge

Ember squealed. "You're a naughty boy." She replied when Xander took her inside the shower. "We are too old to be having these sessions." She replied. Xander didn't think that anything was wrong with him wanting to have an alone time with his lovely wife so he smiled at her. Ember smiled at him. "I'm sorry, I was just kidding." She told him.His eyes crinkled with mirth. "I know, right. I don't even care about what you want to say but I believe that you will enjoy today's session. It promises to be mind-blowing." He bragged. She smiled at him while stroking his beards playfully. "Do you even know what this means?" She teased him.Xander peeled off the dress from her shoulders quietly and stared at her figure. "You look exquisite. I don't think I've seen anyone like you." He muttered softly while smacking his lips for effect.She rolled her eyes at his words. He would say anything just to have his way with her. "What do I expect? It's been almost twenty years." She complained.Xande

Sixteen Years Later, Dennis bounced into the room dripping with sweat and ran down to the kitchen to get a bottle of water from the fridge but met a restriction. He looked up and saw his twin brother staring at him with a glare. "Take a shower instead, you'll feel calm." He said.Dennis went mute for a minute before throwing a punch at him but his brother was faster and had predicted the move so he ducked at the last minute."Get away from the fridge, both of you!" Ember yelled and they jumped apart. She saw that they were mad at each other which made her worried. "You too are supposed to have each other's backs not be a thorn in each other's flesh." She whispered. She was trying so much to raise children who were devoid of hate and malice. The Alpha position was an edgy one which she hoped that they didn't fight each other for but coexisted perfectly together. "Why do you feel the need to show your powers when you are supposed to be each other's best friends?" She demanded The

Three years later"Mummy, can I have a taste now?" One of the boys asked and Ember shook her head, looking down at him with a smile as he had his hands around her legs."Don't be such a baby. It's not ready yet," His twin replied, rolling his eyes as he crossed his arms. The one who had his hands around Ember's leg, shot his brother a glare."Well, I wasn't talking to you" He snapped and Ember downplayed a smile threatening to form on her lips.She stirred the pasta, before turning around to face the boys just in time, when her favorite head came into her view.Xander's hair was disheveled and sticking out. He looked like he just walked out of the shower. He rounded the counter, wrapping his arm around her waist, pulling her flush against his body."This smells delicious," He closed his eyes, taking a sniff. His stomach growled in response and Ember laughed."Easy there, big boy. Soon" She muttered.Xander leaned into her, brushing his lips against the shell of her ears."But taste be
My Luna Hates Me: Winning Back His Luna's Heart Battle Strategy
Ember's POV. A pang of headache hit me as I felt my eyes open, my legs shaking beneath my gown. Everywhere seemed black, but the sun rays through the barred hole on the door shone brightly. I strove to stand up, taking what felt like an eternity to raise a leg. Something that felt like shaped iron clashing against each other rang in my ear, and I felt compelled to know what was happening outside. I sprinted toward where the backdoor was, my legs shaking after every step, my heart racing faster with every step I took. The sound of crashing iron and steel and the rise of cries grew closer and thicker with every step I took. I had no idea what was happening outside, all I sought was to escape from this dungeon. Most of the guards were distracted by what was happening outside, none were looking my way. I guess it was lucky, and a chance for me to escape. I walked toward the exit door, but just as I reached there, the roar of a wicked smile halted me in my spot, and I was force
My Luna Hates Me: Winning Back His Luna's Heart Battle Call
Xander's POV. I was seated in my palace when an emissary holding a sealed letter was brought before me by one of my pack guards. As the emissary approached, I could sense a mix of curiosity and unease from my pack members "Greetings, Alpha Xander. I bring a message from Trent's pack." He fretted going down by reclining his head onto his knees. I took the letter, breaking the seal. My eyes scanned the parchment, and my gut twisted with every word. Trent was declaring war on us. I called a gathering with my elders. We sat in a circle, the letter passed among us. "This is madness," One of them growled. "Trent knows we won't back down." "We need to prepare for battle," Another suggested, her voice steady. "Gather our strongest warriors, Xander. We'll show Trent the strength of our pack." "I'll start scouting for allies. We can't face Trent's pack alone." I looked at my elders, determination burning within me. "We'll defend our pack" The elders nodded in unison, and I k
My Luna Hates Me: Winning Back His Luna's Heart Back to the past
Ember's POV I walked down the hallway slowly, this part of the house seemed to be more empty than the path I walked through once I reached the end of the house. I frowned wondering what wild goose chase Ellie sent me on. Xander wasn't here. Why would she send me here for no reason had she completely lost it? angry I turned to leave when I spotted Trent standing there with a wicked smile on his face, holding a sword. My stomach dropped knowing there was no way this was going to end well. “Trent! What are you doing here?” He smirked, the glint of the sword reflecting in the fading light. “Hello, Ember. Fancy meeting you here.” I took a step back, feeling panic rising. “Where’s Xander? He’s supposed to be here, did you do something to him?” Trent chuckled, his voice dripping with malice. “Oh, Xander isn’t coming. Ellie sent you her for me. I’m the one you’re dealing with.” Realization hit me like a punch to the gut. Ellie must have played me, setting me up for Trent. My instinc
My Luna Hates Me: Winning Back His Luna's Heart Underestimated
Author's POV. Xander walked hurriedly towards the port. He had booked a safe passage through the tunnel for Ember. It had not been cheap, but he knew it was going to be worth it since he was sure she would appreciate his efforts in helping her get her complete freedom. He arrived at the spot they had both agreed that they would meet. The port was mostly deserted at this time of the day so it was going to be relatively safe and easy for her to wall around without being found by people who work for Trent. He stood around for the next ten minutes, stifling the anxiety that was quickly growing in his chest. After ten minutes, he started to call her name as he looked around the area. It could have been possible that she had missed her way and was staying at another spot instead of the one they had initially agreed to meet. She was supposed to have been here. They had agreed that they would meet at that spot and he had been exactly on time. If there had been any delay or anything t

Ember's POV. I wasn't moved by her words because I knew that I had a higher backing that would help me out when it was time. All she just needed was the go-ahead from me. Then I knew that she would be able to go ahead to focus on getting the answer. I chuckled softly and looked at her. "Did you want us to respect you, Ellie? You should accord yourself some respect." I told her and she looked at me. "Who the hell are you?!" She challenged me. Her eyes flared at me and I smiled at her. "Are you my husband's concubine?" She asked and I held myself from saying just like you were. That would be a big slap on her face which I didn't really mind though. I liked the fact that she was really struggling to make it work. I didn't care about her and all that she was doing. All I wanted to know is that there would be a need for us to just stay for a while and rest before finally talking about our past life. In just a few years she would be controlling the whole arena but if I stood up rig
My Luna Hates Me: Winning Back His Luna's Heart Rehashing
Ember's POV. I couldn't help but feel very remorseful when he came close to me. I was a bit skeptical in the beginning but after a while I finally realized that there might be something missing which I wasn't taking into cognizance. Xander reclined into the seat as he stared at me but I maintained his glare. He wasn't going to unnerve me. So what if he didn't sleep with her? All of this was still his fault. If he had not taken those steps when he finished getting her pregnant, then maybe I wouldn't resent him this much. "You didn't defend me when I needed you the most, I don't think you remember that incident, or do you?" I asked him and he shook his head. "I don't think I do. Why would I purposely not want to talk to you? I was under an influence and believe me when I say that it's something that I regret till this day because of this now we are in deep shit. Call me sentimental, but as much as I hate this man I don't feel like harming him at least not yet, do you underst
