Nox POV

She jerked as I lifted her into my arms. I thought she would wake up. But her eyes remained close, and she seemed to press her body closer to mine.

My heart thumped fiercely. My insides boiled in a rage and anxiety. I was alarmed by how limp she was and outraged by the mark on that intimate spot at the crook of her neck.

She and Liam were in such great terms, huh? They'd made up so hard that she let him mark her? These were very fresh! Not from when they newly got married.

The two older males rushed closer. I bared my teeth, snarling to keep them away from her. They skidded back, holding up both hands.

Felix began talking rapidly. He motioned down the hall, gasping,

"This way. We need Doctor Glass. You need to have them get Doctor Glass!"

Soon, we entered the nearest chamber, which was nearly empty except for a large desk and two chairs.

"Go get her then," I barked. "The Doctor Glass."

The other elder ran straight to the wall phone.

Meanwhile, it occurred to me that

    Keira POVI dreamed of people screaming and calling out to me, some pack members, yelling curses at me for what had befallen the Spring Moon. Liam, pointing an accusing finger at me while laughing and jeering.'"This is your fault."' His voice echoed all around. '"You put your feelings before your pack, now look what you've done!'''I woke up, opening my eyes only halfway. Then I closed it again as all of the memories of the day flooded back and mingled with memories of the bad dream.I thought it was all a nightmare, but I was wrong. The pack had truly been taken. The Spring Moon had fallen. Liam was right. It was my fault. All of my people were dead and imprisoned because of me.Conan. My Gamma. He was gone because of me.As I recalled his lifeless body at Nox's feet, my eyes began to water. I still didn't open them. A thin line of liquid found their way out, slipping past the closed lids and sliding down the side of my face.My worst fear had come to pass. I had lost everything. In

  • My Luna with the Sleeping Wolf   The Lycan's neighbor

    Nox POVHow could she lay there and act proud of the mark?I should not have turned back that full moon night. How I hated myself this very minute! I couldn't believe that I let her fierce beauty overpower me like that.I should have gone ahead with plan A. Should've come out of my hiding. We would reject each other, and I would launch my attack as planned. If I'd done that, by now, our bond would be severed, and I wouldn't have to feel this awful, horrific rage and heartache while staring at her.But I hadn't seen the mark, that's why. It hadn't been there. I was sure of this. I would've noticed under the moonlight if she had it. At least, I would've sensed another male's essence all around her. Liam did not mark her until she returned from the woods that night. Maybe right after she realized that I wasn't going to show up, she'd returned to Liam and let him have his way and...This line of thought was very dangerous. It was safer for everyone that I didn't imagine her naked in her

    Nox POVMy mother was from the Northside. A kingdom ruled by lycans but dominated by werewolves as our kind were not as many as them.She and my dad got together during one of the many battles between the two species. They were not fated. According to my mother, it all started as pure, physical attraction. I was the product of a one night stand between my parents. Lycans could not procreate unless with a fated mate, so I was a miracle child.The love blossomed between the two once they learned of my existence. They would have stayed together as mated couples. But at that time, the hatred between both species ran deep. My maternal grandparents forbade their union and threatened to hunt and murder my dad and his entire kin if my mother did not let him go. My mother was imprisoned by her own parents and later forced into marriage to the then Lycan Prince, Cyrus Luther.

    Nox POVOnce Benny released me, I made a move towards him. He flinched. I caught a glimpse of his claws, but Benny already had a tight grip on my arm. "This male is a messenger of your father, the Lycan King," said my friend in a business-like voice."How's that possible?" I asked. "He was this pack's Alpha.""Everybody knows that his wife is the successor, not him. He was Alpha, not by blood but by marriage."I had been looking for the fücker. Had laid down at night, planning how I would make him suffer for the crime of meeting my mate before I did. And that was not his only crime. He did not deserve her. Did not cherish her. Yet I had to contend with him? Now he was here in front of me, and I wasn't allowed to do something about it?Frustration mixed with confusion and rising fury made me yank my arm free from Benny's grip as I asked him,"What message do you bring, Liam?"He opened his mouth to speak, but Benny interjected,"The Lycan King's words would not be received in this ma

    Nox POVAn hour later, I had read King Cyrus' command that I do no harm to Liam Rudd. Theo was now making sure our "guests" were settling nicely at the guest quarters.I headed towards my newly-furnished office, which was between Keira's grand library and her own office. I had to make a very important call, so I bounded up the stairs to the top floor and went to my desk.Some work laid waiting for me. They were urgent reports from the day's activities within the pack. I pushed those aside and pulled out my cellphone. My dad and I had not spoken in a little over a week now. He knew of my interest in the Spring Moon but didn't know when I invaded. It was solely my prerogative to run my pack how I wanted. I didn't need to tell him everything. After all, this Eastside was far from his Kingdom.I dialled his cell now and watched the screen as it rang. The ringing was going to end when the answer beep sounded. I held the phone to my ear."Hello? Dad?""It's Beta Fabian," came the gentle re

    Keira POVWhen I opened my eyes again, all of the physical aches, weakness, and mental strain were no more. I felt very light. That meant that I'd fully recovered. If my math was right, one whole week had gone by since my pack was taken. The cries of battle had long died down now. The voices all around made everything seem so normal. It felt like this was just another day when I was still Luna.I looked all around the room. I was still in the chamber where they brought me when I attempted to make Aria attack Nox.There were no more needles on my hands. All of the IV fluids were gone. My heart rate beeped steadily on the small monitor near the bed.I took a deep breath to calm myself so that I could examine the entire house with my senses. There were voices all around. I could've sworn that I heard Nox's voice among them, too. Was he back?Somehow, in the last few days, when I'd been in and out of my deep sleep, I did not feel him nearby at all. I could tell that he was not in the p

    Keira POVI didn't know when I turned my face towards his. All of a sudden, my eyes were on his lips, which was only inches from mine.His throat bobbed while his lips laid parted. I had no idea who moved between the two of us. His lips brushed mine softly like a wind. Suddenly, noisy footsteps sounded near the doorway, bringing me back to my senses."S-sorry, Alpha," Yara stammered. "Luna." She swirled around and rushed back into the room. "Yara!" I called sharply. "Get back here!""Yes, Luna," she returned. I avoided looking at Nox from there on. When I spoke again, I didn't know who I was talking to."Where's the room?"Nox sauntered past me, mumbling,"Come with me."I was completely irritated with myself. I had practically allowed that almost-kiss. How could I forget for a second that he was my enemy?I followed behind him, feeling enraged by the fact that I let myself react to him the way I did. We got out of the hallway soon, and my eyes moved about. I realized that not muc

    Keira POVMy maid bowed and left quickly. Once Nox and I were alone, I spoke quickly before he said anything,"Why didn't you show up that night?"I needed to know why he didn't show up on the full moon. Somehow, I knew there was more to his reasons than wanting to spite me. Perhaps he just didn't want me to know for sure if the bond existed between us. "I was busy.""Busy planning this attack, huh?""That. And other things.""Well, you're here right now. And you have done everything I feared you would do! So it's safe to believe that I was right about you all along? We're not fated, Nox. It was all part of your TRICKS. Right?""You can believe what you want, Keira!""Why wait? Why did you go through the trouble of trying to seduce me? Trying to ruin my marriage?""There you go again, blaming me for your failures with that piece-of-shit bästard you call a husband. You never struck me as a blame-pusher, Keira. I guess looks really can be decieving! Did you often blame him, too? I'm su

    Nox POVI watched as Liam was escorted out of the building. He was not my primary reason for perching by the window of my office. Keira was passing through the foyer with Pavlov behind her. She stopped shot and stiffened as she sensed her ex far behind.The fact that she could feel him like that made my stomach turn. My father resumed talking, making me recall that I had the phone to my ear. I didn't hear the last thing he said."Nox!" He snapped."I'm right here, your majesty," I returned."Good. He is MY prisoner! Now, I know this goes without saying, but Ramos knows your scent quite well. He wouldn't mistake it for another."My fist tightened on the receiver. Apparently, King Cyrus could read minds. He knew what I was thinking. That was no surprise. He was the father who raised me, so I was more like him than anybody else. He knew me like the back of his hand. "If you go after the guy to murder him on the way, Ramos will know it's you no matter how you disguise yourself. And I w

    Keira POVI took the hand Ramos Vargas offered and was going to say welcome to my home but caught myself. "Nice to meet you, Mister Vargas," I said instead.Breakfast went on smoothly and seemed to be ending on a good note. No unpleasant talk came up. We were nearly done when the newcomer finally mentioned Liam."I feel like you ought to hear it from me," he said. "Actually, King Cyrus asked me to inform you personally as this is your household. I'm taking Liam Rudd to the Northside. We're leaving in a few minutes."My heart jerked as the news."He confessed to attempting high treason against the Prince," he went on. "That makes him an enemy of the North and the Lycan King's prisoner. Alpha Nox is not allowed to do him any more harm than he already did. The one who gave him the poison will face their punishment here. As soon as we find out who. But I've been asked to bring Liam with me immediately.""I see," I replied lamely, not knowing what else to say.I couldn't stomach the rest

    Keira POVThis was the part where I defended myself and screamed that I had no part in Liam's plan. To tell him that I intended to refuse when next the talk came up.But I did not say a word. I would hate to sound defensive. I had every right to try to take back my pack, did I not?Even if I wanted to speak up right now, my throat was closed as a result of the pain caused by his words.I did not expect him not to retaliate the attempted attack. After all, he was a wolf. A mutant, but a wolf nonetheless. Revenge was part of his genetic makeup. Moments after he went out of my private chamber, I stood waiting. Pavlov or another warrior would barge in any moment to drag me to the dungeon below the building. I would be locked up with the others like a common criminal. In a pack where everyone called me Luna.My palms grew sweaty as I waited. Maybe they would take me to the Autumn Moon. I decided that would be better than being imprisoned here Hours or what felt like it went by, and nothi

I searched for the words to dodge his question. When I opened my mouth, all I could say was,"Wolfsbane? Like the poison?""Yeah. Like the poison," Nox's tone was impatient and unrecognizable. I did not want to look at his face, so I kept my eyes on the tiny transparent bag in his hand. Then he closed his fist around it."I asked you a question, Keira," he said. "Or should I call you Kiki? Did you know he had this with him?""I..." My brain wouldn't work because of the way he was looking at me. Then, I grew annoyed at the intimidation. "You broke into our home, Nox!" How I hated the defensiveness in my voice. How I hated the fact that I was losing my composure."OUR home?" His eyes darkened with anger and something else that was too comfusing to name. "You're on his side, are you? In his possession is the same poison that'

  • My Luna with the Sleeping Wolf   Luna's new routine

    Keira POVThe day was going too well it was suspicious considering all I had been through. There was only one thing wrong that balanced out the day. Nox was avoiding me. Avoid was the wrong term. He was staying away from me. After our chat three days ago, I'd considered going to see Liam again, but changed my mind. There was no need for that, and I had no idea what I would say to the ex. We also didn't have anything to talk about.Besides, I was very busy now as the person in charge of the winery. There were matters to address, and I didn't have time to see Liam Rudd and tell him plainly that I would not take part in his plan. He'd walked in on us that night. That should suffice.One pressing matter to deal with right now was Belle Faust and the fact that she was still avoiding me. That was not sustainable as she was in charge of sales and an important member of management.Because of her role in the company, dealing with her could not be helped. In fact, we had to work as closely as

    Nox POVThree days had passed since I talked to Keira. I had not gone near her even though I monitored all of her movements closely. I didn't trust myself to be near her without claiming what was rightfully mine now. My feelings had grown dangerously intense at some point after I learned of her divorce.The fact that she still worried about Liam Rudd was hard to deal with. Only one thing came to mind when I thought of that. To claim her until I was the only male she knew and thought about.Her divorce papers had been notarized and now sat before me on my desk. Her Elders Council no longer existed, so the Eastside Council, which was made up of werewolves from all four packs, was happy to certify the document. Felix, Conan and Morris, the lawyer, had represented the Spring Moon.I was staring at the divorce paper while recalling our last chat as I ran my hand through my hair. She hadn't talked back like before. She did not let her hostility show, but the look in her eyes spoke volumes.

  • My Luna with the Sleeping Wolf   Alpha to alpha

    Nox POVLiam Rudd was not the criminal who had been feeding poison to Keira. He couldn't be. The timing was off. They got married a year ago. Long after the poisoning began. He was away from the pack a lot before they even got engaged. According to Doctors Servius and Ross, Keira had been injesting that poison for at least three years now. At the time, the fücking turd was still in school in some city doing his MBA. He was a bastard and a good-for-nothing cheating motherfücker, but he had no hand in the slow poisoning of his wife. Yet it gave me immense pleasure to torture him into telling me what I already knew. I watched with pleasure as the blood slid down his shoulder while the wound was sealing up. The pleasure vanished quickly to be replaced by the urge to inflict more pain. My stomach was in knots when I finally admitted to myself that he was, in fact, telling the truth. He was not the culprit!But then I knew he wasn't even before I entered his cell room to have this "cha

    Keira POVAs Nox came towards me in purposeful strides, I could feel Pavlov retreat to give us privacy. A few thoughts fleeted past my mind as he approached. I imagined that he would imprison me for real this time. I would never again climpse that warmth and desire that I'd experienced from him two nights ago.His fist tightened on the paper in his hands as he came to stand in front of me. What was that?I began to think that it was one of the notes Liam and I had exchanged but quickly recalled that I destroyed all of them. Well, all except the last one where he'd mentioned poison. I fought to keep my breathing steady.No. It was ridiculous to think that was one of the notes. There was more than one paper in his grip, and they were too large to be the small pieces of papers that Liam and I used to communicate. He hadn't said a word when I greeted him. His silence was more than unsettling because just this afternoon, he'd confessed that he invaded my pack so that he could be close to

    Keira POVI stood in the middle of the brightly lit, newly-decorated office, looking all around me. Nox had just left after the odd confession about his reason for invading. An outrageous reason, indeed. I should be enraged. Maybe I would once the fluttering in my stomach eased up a bit.Did he really mean this? Was he truly giving me back my family business? I finally moved, going around the desk to sit. Many times, especially after Liam showed his true colors, I had imagined myself running this place. It was what I did after my dad passed. When I got married, I had to leave it to Liam and focus on internal pack matters, which was no less fulfilling, but still, this felt like where I ought to be as much as that seat at the pack.Now, I sat at the desk, recalling the old days and picturing the future. My heart grew warm and light at the thought of returning here fully.Then, Belle's face flashed before me. I recalled how she'd stood so close beside Nox, smiling and whispering stuff t
