Triana was taken aback when she learned she was pregnant. Then a wave of joy spread throughout her. She reached out to caress her tummy. A new life was taking shape within her. It was an overwhelming feeling. She smiled, but her eyes turned glassy. She began to miss Blaze terribly at this point. She wished she could run over to him and tell him she was pregnant.Pregnant…Then she remembered that Alma was also expecting Blaze’s child. Her smile started to wane gradually. The way Blaze had accused her of cheating, it seemed as if he had no faith in her. He could also say the child was not his. This notion made Triana even more depressed. She couldn’t stop the tears from falling."Hey, why are you crying?" The doctor asked. She had a sweet smile on her face. "This is the time to rejoice. You need to take care of your mental and emotional well-being. If you stay down, the baby will be grumpy."Triana pulled a smile over her face, wiping her tears away. "These are tears of joy," she murmu
Triana remained on the bed, her hand constantly rubbing her tummy. She couldn't get the incident at the hospital out of her mind. Tony's mother's remarks were still resonating in her ears. Triana would never believe she had a healing ability. Yet, she couldn't help but think about the possibilities. What if she had such an ability?Then she wondered why she hadn't realized she had this power until now. If she possessed the ability to heal, why couldn't she heal Blaze when she found him injured in the woods?"This has to be a coincidence," she murmured and shifted her weight to the other side.Triana remembered Moana expressing that she felt invigorated when she held her hands. Blaze and Gayle claimed Moana pretended to be sick at the time. Triana hadn’t taken it seriously. She began to wonder if she genuinely had healing abilities. Some incidents from her childhood passed through her mind while she pondered.Flashback…Triana was in the backyard with Helena and some other friends, pla
The commotion in the packhouse caught Triana by surprise. Everyone appeared to be in a state of panic. The men ran out in a hurry, while the women locked the kids in the room. It seemed as if the pack was under attack.Triana looked for Moana but didn’t see her anywhere. Then she went to find Erica. She noticed her in the kitchen with several other ladies, making herbal pastes and concoctions. Moana was also there."Erica…" she called her out."Triana…" Erica dashed over to her. She grabbed her arms and said anxiously, "We are in great trouble. An infectious disease has spread all over the pack. The hospital is overflowing with patients. There is a shortage of doctors and nurses to treat patients. Dario gave the order to lock the packhouse. Don’t go out anywhere, alright?""What type of disease is it?" Triana asked. "It had all been okay since the day before.""I have no idea. Yuri came in the early morning and briefed us on the situation. Dario left with him in a hurry. He hasn't bee
Blaze was getting ready for an important meeting for the upcoming attack on the rogue gang. The ink in his pen had run out. He pulled out the drawer and rummaged through it, looking for a pen. He found the blue gemstone pendant instead of a pen. It was only then that he remembered taking it from Triana to repair the chain. But he got so busy dealing with rogue issues that he forgot about it completely.Blaze took the chain and peered at the pendant, his mind racing to Triana. He missed her."Why did you leave me?" He muttered as he brushed his thumb across the gemstone.He hoped he could put everything aside and rush to see her. Then he wondered whether Moana had managed to persuade her."Humph… How is she going to persuade her?" he muttered dejectedly.Blaze began to regret sending Moana, believing that such a foolish woman couldn’t do anything.Knock-Knock…He called, "Come in," shoving the pendant back into the drawer.Gayle came in with several warriors. They took their seats arou
Blaze and his army crossed the border at the crack of dawn. They were all transformed into wolves and trotted on all fours towards the rogue pack. They trotted rhythmically in sync. They looked ferocious, eyes focused ahead, ears perked up. It was beautiful yet terrifying to behold, enough to make even the most powerful and well-trained wolf armies cower in front of them.The first rays of the sun were insufficient to eliminate the gloom in the dense woods. The morning stars glistened like diamonds. The air was fresh and cold, with a musky aroma of the woods. The wind blew through the huge trees, causing the branches and leaves to sway. The quietness of the night was broken by the birdsong. Looking around, it didn't look like the peace would last long.As they approached further, they found themselves ambushed. Several rogues lunged at them unexpectedly, catching them off guard. Blaze planned to strike the rogue group before they had time to prepare. Here, the rogues attacked them upf
Blaze collapsed on the ground as soon as he entered the Blood Pack premises, his vision getting hazy. He was on the verge of passing out. Gayle and Hugo rushed over to him. They half-carried, half-dragged him to the hospital.Gayle imprisoned the captive rogues in the dungeon after admitting Blaze to the hospital. Some of the rogues were so terrified that they began pleading with him."Please, please... Don’t kill us. We’ll do whatever you say. Tell your alpha to keep us alive. Please…"Gayle's nostrils flared as he glared at each of the rogues. "You were fighting with us just a few minutes ago. You slaughtered our warriors. You now expect us to be merciful! You should have thought about the consequences before causing problems in the pack."He squared his shoulders and added, "It’s up to Alpha. I’m bound to carry out his orders. If he orders me to kill you, I’ll kill you all." He wrinkled his nose and pinned a murderous glare at them."No, Gayle…" One of the rogues kneeled in front o
Alma grew restless with every passing minute. She paced around her room, chewing the insides of her cheeks, trying to think of how to persuade Blaze to kill the rogues. Even after considerable thought, she couldn't come up with an idea. She thought of meeting Virgil. She sneaked out of the pack while everyone was busy tending to the injured warriors.Alma arrived at the council office a few minutes later and went straight to Virgil's desk. She found him doing some paperwork. She bowed to him, showing her respect."I was expecting you," Virgil smirked, motioning for her to take a seat."I hope you know how the war went," Alma said as she sat down across from him. "Blaze has imprisoned some rogues. He’ll kill me if the rogues reveal that I’m a spy. I’ll disclose everything if he tries to kill me.""First, I won’t let it happen," Virgil stated emphatically. "Second, he won’t kill you while you are pregnant. So, don’t worry. We have enough time to take him down. Just do as I say." He retr
"Grr…" Blaze roared and wrinkled his snout, his razor-sharp incisors gleaming. He threw his arm into him.Gayle ducked and took a step back, his head bowed even further. He tucked his tail between his hind legs, his ears flat on his head."Grr…" Blaze growled once again in a threatening way, asking him to step aside. He didn’t attack him, though.Gayle approached him slowly, even though he was trembling in fear.Blaze stood still, a bone-chilling snarl escaping from his throat.Gayle put his snout against Blaze’s snout. "Please calm down, alpha," he mind-linked with Blaze. "The pack is scared.""Grr…" Blaze roared, his eyes wandering around.He noticed the fear in the eyes of the people around him. Then his gaze dropped to the corpses littered on the ground. Wherever he looked, he saw nothing but blood. Shredded limbs of the rogues were strewn on the ground. It was a gut-twisting sight.Blaze gradually transformed back to his human form, his anger starting to dissipate. He was disgust
Triana leaped to her feet and rushed over to Erica."Erica…" She crouched down beside her and put her hand on her forehead.Erica regained her consciousness."Erica…" Triana pulled her up and took her in her arms. "You scared me to death.""I am safe," Erica exclaimed and hugged her back. "You saved me." Tears rolled down her cheeks. "Where is that witch?"Triana released her and nodded toward Azura."Huh…" Erica inhaled sharply as she saw Azura lying in the pool of blood. "You killed her!""Or else?" Triana smirked."Are you sure she is dead?" Erica was still skeptical. She assumed Azura would get up and attack them."Of course." Triana giggled. "Don’t worry. She is dead.""Oh, my." Erica let out a sigh of relief and put her hand on her chest.In the meantime, the guards rushed over to them.Erica scowled at them and snapped, "Where have you been? You are here to protect us. But you all disappeared when the witch attacked us. I am going to complain to Dario. He will punish you all."
"What the hell are you talking about?" Blaze yelled, his face red with anger. "You plotted against me with that witch to drive Triana out of my life. Why, father? Do you hate me so much? Am I not your son?"Dimitri opened and closed his mouth but couldn’t say a word. He regretted his actions. Simultaneously, he was so ashamed that he couldn’t make eye contact with him."Calm down, Blaze." Edith grabbed his hand and tried to calm him down.Blaze pulled his hand back and snorted."We never knew that Azura was manipulating us," Edith continued. "We believed her when she said that Triana had a curse on her and that she would cause your downfall. We had no idea she was lying to us.""You could have asked me about it," Blaze growled. "But no… You chose to trust that witch rather than your son. Under her influence, you didn't even hesitate to drug me and throw a woman into my bed. At least, you could have thought about my babies. You not only drove her out of my life, but you also chased my
Edith stared at Moana, dumbfounded. At this point, her smile began to fade."You are joking, right?" She mustered a smile."I am not joking. I am serious.""What is the matter?" Edith got up from the bed and walked up to her. "Did Blaze say something to you?""Please try to understand," Moana snarled, flailing her arms. "He adores Triana. He won’t be able to love any woman. This wedding is pointless. It will only bring disaster for us. I don’t want to ruin my life."Edith blinked, perplexed.Moana grabbed her arms and said, "The wedding is not necessary if Azura can heal him. Tell her to find the cure as soon as possible. If he gets recovered, he can live happily with Triana."Edith slowly realized that this marriage would only make Blaze unhappy. She became so concerned about his safety that she didn’t realize she was about to shove him into the abyss of sorrow. At the same time, she was about to ruin Moana’s life."I get it." She nodded in realization. "I will talk to Dimitri.""Tha
A week later…Moana became even more restless when Blaze's parents began to plan the wedding. The guilt in her heart grew stronger every time she noticed Blaze avoiding her.She was well aware that Blaze would never love her. She also knew he wasn't opposing his parents solely out of a feeling of responsibility to her. The truth was that Blaze had not taken her virginity.Moana could no longer hide the truth. She wrote a letter to Triana, explaining everything. She then found someone and paid him to deliver the letter to Triana.In the Blue Moon Pack…Triana was so depressed after leaving Blaze that she became disinterested in everything. She always remained in the bedroom with the babies. She didn't want to talk to anyone, not even Erica.After putting the babies to sleep, she clambered onto the bed and went to sleep in the broad daylight."What is it?" Erica snarled as she entered the room. "Are you going to sleep? Ugh…" She rolled her eyes. "It has been over a week since you got he
Triana went down to the kitchen to get something to eat and ran into Edith. She mustered a smile and greeted her, "Good morning, Mum."Edith hesitated for a while but returned her smile. "Morning. Are the babies awake?""Yes.""I understand you are upset about what happened the day before," Edith murmured. "What was done is done. We can’t change it. What we can do is rectify the mistake. We talked to Blaze and convinced him to marry Moana too. I hope you don't mind."Triana lost her appetite instantly. "Excuse me."She walked out of the kitchen with her head bowed and bumped into Azura.Azura jumped back frantically as if she had collided with something untouchable.Triana frowned as she noticed her staring at her pendant. She clasped the blue gemstone and strode to her room."Luna…"Triana came to a halt when she heard Moana calling her from behind. She slowly turned back, her heart pounding. She was angry and ashamed at the same time.Moana approached her, one step at a time. She fe
Moana jumped to her feet and took a step back, staring fearfully at Blaze.Azura continued chanting in a low voice as she squatted beside him, her hand on his head. She stopped chanting after a while and turned to Dimitri."Put him in the bed," she said as she rose to her feet, her voice scratchy.Dimitri dragged Blaze onto the bed."His condition is getting worse," Azura continued. "The evil wolf grows stronger after consuming Triana’s energy. We need to separate them as soon as possible. I won't be able to cure him otherwise.""No, no, Azura. Don’t say that." Edith grabbed her hands, sobbing. "You are the only hope. Don’t give up on my son.""I will do everything in my power to cure him," Azura assured her. She shifted her attention to Moana. "Get on the bed and lie down next to him... naked.""But nothing has happened between us," Moana retorted.Azura held up her hand, cutting her short. "You don’t h
Blaze arrived earlier than usual. He took a small red box from his pocket and smiled at it. He stuffed it back into his pocket as he strode to the bedroom."Blaze…"Triana rushed over and threw herself onto him as soon as he stepped into the room."Hahaha…" Blaze laughed as he lifted her off her feet. "What makes you happy?""I love you." Triana cupped his face and kissed him."I love you, too," Blaze whispered between the kisses. He put her on the bed and sat down next to her. "What is the matter?""Guess it."Blaze chuckled. "I am an impatient man. I don’t like suspense. Tell me why you are so happy."Triana giggled. "Your mother and father have finally accepted me," she declared. "They are planning our wedding. I am going shopping tomorrow with Erica."Blaze’s smile faded straight away. He found it difficult to believe that his father had agreed to the marriage so easily. He had a hunch that
Several minutes later…Blaze and Triana walked down the hall, hand in hand. Triana blushed furiously as Blaze whispered something in her ear."Your cheeks are red like tomatoes," Blaze murmured. "I'm tempted to bite them.""Stop teasing me." Triana nudged him on his waist, a bashful smile on her face.Edith, who was sitting in the hall, watched them walking down the stairs. She couldn’t help but smile, looking at how happy her son was. Her smile began to wane as she remembered Azura’s warning.Blaze leaned in for a kiss, but Triana resisted, putting her hand on his chest."Behave. Mum is watching us." Triana glanced at Edith.Blaze followed her gaze and saw Edith sitting on the sofa in the hall. A thought immediately came into his mind."Come with me." He took her to the hall."Good morning, Mum." He smiled at her as he sat beside her, pulling Triana down with him."Morning." Edith mustered a smile."Mum..." Blaze took a brief look at Triana before returning his gaze to her. "I am pla
Triana wriggled as she fought to break free. She even slapped and scratched him on the arms. But her struggle grew weaker as he continued kissing her passionately."Mm…" she moaned and kissed him back, in the end, her fingers sliding into his hair.She was still angry with him. She tugged on his hair and bit his bottom lip."Ugh…" Blaze groaned and kissed her harder. He became more aroused as she became more aggressive.He lifted her off her feet and carried her to the bed, his lips still locked on hers. When he dropped her on the bed, her body gently bounced on the mattress.Triana propped herself up with her elbows and gave him a stern look, her mouth set in a grim line. Blaze clambered on the bed and crawled on top of her, his gaze fixed on hers. He could hardly wait to claim her again, but he waited for her response.Triana coiled her arms around his neck and drew him in closer, her face inches away from his. When his warm breath fanned against her face, her eyelashes trembled."W
