Cyrus POV.

“I am glad you are here,” I said to the woman in front of me while dishing a portion of food onto her plate. “I hope you enjoy your meal,” I told her with a bright smile. It was a smile that I. ontinjed to plaster on my face for a little over four hours now that I had been standing and attending to these people.

She nodded her head as I added another portion to the one I already served. Once I was done serving her, I expected her to walk away like the rest of the others did but she didn’t.

“You are such a good Alpha.” She said to me with a grateful smile. She ate a spoonful of the food I served her and smacked her lips. “Thank you for feeding us.”

“You are welcome,” I said with a smile. She walked away after that and another person took her place, this time with their own empty plate. I repeated the action I did for the woman.

After everything in my plan had gone haywire, and almost everyone was pointing an accusing finger at me and claiming that I was a wicked Alpha, I

    Evelyn. “How long do you think it will take before we are able to put up the walls completely?” I asked the workers in charge of the project. After the initial rejection from the Elders and some of the people of the pack leaving because they claimed that they could not wait behind, holed up in a tent when they wanted to be free and go about doing theor businesses, the fee people who were left finally supported me and helped moved the tents to the mansion area. Now, every one of them were there and helping out however they could.Some of them were these people who had volunteered to help build the walls so that the process would be faster than going out to loon for more people. However, it still didn't excuse the fact that the building was going to take a while. How long that would be was something I didn't know yet, which was why I intended to find out from these people.“At least three weeks, Luna.” One of them replied. “And at that, we need every hand on deck as much as it is possi

  • My ex-Luna came back for revenge   The news.

    Evelyn. The news I was waiting for finally came. However, it wasn’t the one I expected to hear. As days went by and I didn’t hear any response from my mate, I kept my hope alive, telling myself that the mission was just taking him a while to accomplish and maybe he was just in a real tight situation where he couldn’t pick his calls or turn on his phone to check on me. But then, I got slapped in the face by this kind of news?Or did I hear him wrongly?“De-dead?” I stammered out, my hands held against the basket I had forgotten I was holding. Finally, the basket slipped from my hand and my eyes began to turn me. “Yes, Luna. I am so so–“ the soldier said. His eyes held the sadness that was laced in his voice. I didn’t bother to hear the rest of the words. I couldn’t even listen if I planned to. The ground under my feet gave way and I found myself plummeting to the floor, my eyes closed and my senses lost. The last thing I noticed before I finally fainted was that one of the men sur

  • My ex-Luna came back for revenge   Another random attack.

    Evelyn. Boom!The loud bang of something exploding made me jump to my feet from where I was trying to rest in the mansion. I rushed over the stairs, straight downstairs and straight to where the tents were erected. I knew without being told that we were about to face another random attack if we were not already facing it. “What’s going on?!” I yelled the moment I got to the tents. I saw people panicking but still managing to act composed. Each tents had two people standing close, ready to close the tent’s zipper if they needed to stay hidden from the destruction. “Another random attack!” Grace answered, standing beside me. She cracked her neck ahead, trying to see if she would see the incoming war. “Get in the tent!” I yelled at her. She didn’t however moved. I ignored her and also strained my neck to see if I could notice the war. “Luna, are you okay?” I looked to my side and saw the Beta standing there, looking at me and the tents to be sure everyone was okay. “Why are the at

  • My ex-Luna came back for revenge   The confrontation.

    Evelyn. “Thought I would never see you again,” I said without beating around the bush with her. “But I see that you are still trying your very best to act like my replacement by forcing yourself around here.” I looked at her from head to toes in a disdaining way. If she wasn’t aware that I was not in my sweetest mood to listen to her nonsense, then she thought wrong. If she had any brain left in her head, she would have realized that I was back in the moon goddess forsaken pack, not out of joy, but because I needed to settle a grievance. But since she was too dumb to realize that, I wouldn’t mind showing it to her. Her countenance changed the moment she heard me utter those words to her. I hissed back at her, daring her to try anything funny around me. She eyed me from head to toes as well, probably trying to think of an adequate comeback for my words on her. “What are you doing here?” She hissed out in anger, obviously not being able to find something workable to say back regardi

    Evelyn. “Why would you even think that I would merge my pack with yours in the first place? After I know who you are and how evil you are?” I hissed at him. The man must have lost his mind. At least, now it was clear that the hunch the Beta and I had was not just an hunch anymore. It was the truth. He was the one who was truly responsible for all the attacks against the pack. There was no reason to doubt anymore. “You just said it now. It is your pack.” He answered. He looked at me like I was a fool for not even getting the point of his words and knowing about what he was saying.“Point of correction, Cyrus. It is my mate and I’s pack. And that is why I get to refer to it as mine because whatever belongs to my mate belongs to me. Not everyone will be like you where you are not proud of the woman you made your Luna," I scoffed at him. If he thought that everyone was like him, then he thought wrong. There were men out there who valued their mates enough to have them know that everyt

    Gaius. “No!” I screamed, flaring my hands in the air. My eyes flung open as pain hit me from the action I tried to perform. My hands hurt and my throat burned. I sighed as I swallowed my own saliva hard to keep the patch in my throat away. I grunted as I tried to raise my right hand again but had to quickly drop it down because of how hurt it felt to do even such a simple thing. As I closed my eyes again to get myself back from the haze that filled me, the memory of the car crash came fully. *I was driving, trying to escape from the men that were set behind me to kill me. While I was speeding away, I heard the loud honk of a car behind me. I turned at that moment, trying to see if it was the same people I was running from that managed to gain up to me. I didn’t realize that there was another car coming from one of the sides of the road I was driving on. While I was so focused on the car behind me, the one at the side hit me so hard that my car somersaulted immediately I turned a

  • My ex-Luna came back for revenge   Desperation.

    Evelyn. Something was eating me up. Something I tried my best to stop. Something I tried my best to ignore. Heck, I had done everything possible to keep it out of my mind, to the point where I worked myself to the point where I didn’t have any seconds to spare to think about it. But even at that, I just couldn’t. No matter how busy I was, no matter how hard I tried not to think about it, my mind would not stop going back to it even in the midst of the chaos. It was desperation. And it chased at me as if it was the very essence of my being. Like I couldn’t survive another second without it. And I was not being desperate just for myself or the situation at the pack. I was not even desperate for the threat that the goddamn person of Alpha Cyrus had made. I was desperate because I needed to know what exactly was going on. I needed to know what happened to my mate. Growing restless after leaving Alpha Cyrus’s pack and having no other news apart from the one the soldier came back with a

    Gaius. The moment I opened my eyes, I got up from the bed and stretched at length, noting that the pain I felt was almost not there. If I hadn’t been observant and trying to feel for any, I would not have noticed it at all. Just as the woman who took care of me had predicted, I was now all better after a week of full rest and taking different herbs to surge up my recovery. “You are indeed better now.” She noted as she came to my side. She gave me a smile as she handed me the bowl I was now all too familiar with, including the content it carried. “Thank you,” I said, collecting the bowl from her. Without wasting any more time, I titled the bowl to my lips and gulped down the herbal drink that was in it. I squeezed my face a bit as the butter content filled my throat. It was what I had to endure for a week and I was just still yet to get used to it. “You are very much better now, so I don’t think there is any reason for you to remain here.” The woman said as she collected the bowl

    EvelynThe pain came in waves, sharp and relentless. My breathing was shallow as I clung to Gaius’s hand, his steady presence the only thing keeping me grounded. I had prepared for this moment—or at least I thought I had. But nothing could have prepared me for the overwhelming pressure, the way my body felt like it was tearing apart.“Breathe, Evelyn,” Gaius said softly, his voice calm but firm. “You’ve got this.”I nodded, though the words felt distant. Another contraction hit, and I cried out, my wolf stirring restlessly inside me.Grace entered the room, followed by the midwife, a kind but no-nonsense woman named Marion. She took one look at me and started giving instructions, her voice steady and reassuring.“You’re doing great, Evelyn,” Marion said, kneeling by the bed. “But the baby isn’t in the right position yet. It might take some time.”I groaned, my grip on Gaius’s hand tightening. “I don’t know if I can do this,” I whispered, tears streaming down my face.“Yes, you can,” G

    EvelynThe ride back to the pack was quiet. Gaius sat beside me, his hand resting on my knee, a comforting weight in the stillness. I leaned my head against the window, watching the trees blur past. My mind wandered, replaying the confrontation with Roman.His words didn’t haunt me the way I thought they might. Instead, I felt a strange calm, like I’d closed the door on a part of my life that had long held me captive. I wasn’t afraid of him anymore. He couldn’t hurt me now.Gaius’s voice pulled me out of my thoughts. “You’ve been quiet,” he said softly, glancing at me.I turned to him, offering a small smile. “Just thinking.”“About Roman?” he asked, his tone careful.I nodded. “He’s bitter. Angry. But he’s nothing now. Just a shadow of what he used to be.”Gaius squeezed my knee gently. “You’re stronger than him, Evelyn. You always were.”His words warmed me, and I placed my hand over his. “Thank you,” I said softly.The pack house came into view, its familiar structure a welcome si

  • My ex-Luna came back for revenge   A chance of a lifetime.

    EvelynI stood barefoot on the sand, the turquoise waves lapping at the shore. Gaius walked up behind me, his arms circling my waist as he pulled me against his chest. “What are you thinking about?” he asked, his voice low and comforting.I smiled, leaning into him. “I was just trying to remember the last time I felt this peaceful.”He kissed the top of my head. “It’s been a long time, hasn’t it?”“It feels like a lifetime ago,” I admitted.Our honeymoon had been nothing short of magical. After everything we had been through—the battles, the loss, the constant chase of Cyrus’s shadow—this felt like a dream. We had traveled to a secluded island, a place untouched by war or worry, where the only sounds were the waves and the laughter of the locals.For the past few days, we had let ourselves forget about the rest of the world. We’d explored hidden waterfalls, hiked through lush jungles, and shared quiet meals by candlelight. It felt like we were rediscovering each other, peeling back th

    EvelynThe days after the healer’s news were filled with quiet worry. At first, I thought I was just exhausted from everything we’d been through—the battles, the losses, the rebuilding. But my body felt heavier with each passing day, and the symptoms only grew worse.Gaius barely left my side, his eyes constantly flicking to me with a worry he tried to hide. But I could feel it in his touch, in the way his hand would linger on mine, or how he’d wrap an arm around me as if afraid I might disappear.“You need to rest,” he told me for the hundredth time as I sat on the couch one afternoon, my head resting against his shoulder.“I am resting,” I said, though the ache in my body made it clear that rest alone wasn’t enough.“We’re seeing the healer again,” he said firmly. “Something isn’t right.”I didn’t argue. I didn’t have the energy to.The healer, an older man with kind eyes and steady hands, greeted us warmly when we arrived. But as he examined me, his expression grew serious. He did

  • My ex-Luna came back for revenge   Going forward.

    EvelynThe land was quiet, the chaos of the fight replaced by an eerie stillness. It was over. Cyrus was gone, and his reign of terror had ended.But as I walked through the remains of the battlefield, the weight of everything we’d lost pressed heavily on my chest. Those that died were being gathered, their bodies lined carefully, as survivors worked tirelessly to restore some semblance of order. I spotted Gaius in the distance, directing soldiers and healers with the same calm authority that had always been his strength. Even from here, I could see the exhaustion etched into his features, but he didn’t falter. He turned as I approached, his eyes softening when they met mine. “Evelyn,” he said, stepping closer. His hand rested gently on my arm, his touch grounding me. “You shouldn’t be out here. You need to rest.”“I’m fine,” I said, though the truth was far from it. My body ached in ways I didn’t fully understand, and every step felt heavier than the last. But I couldn’t sit idl

  • My ex-Luna came back for revenge   The truth about Cyrus.

    GaiusThe battlefield was eerily quiet. Smoke curled in thin tendrils from scattered fires, and the once deafening sounds of battle had faded into an uneasy silence. Around us, Cyrus’s forces lay defeated, either dead or having fled into the shadows. For the first time in what felt like an eternity, it seemed like we might actually win.But Cyrus wasn’t done.He stood alone in the clearing, his once-pristine black coat torn and bloodstained, but his stance was still defiant. His smirk, cruel and venomous, clung stubbornly to his face as though he knew something we didn’t.I tightened my grip on my blade, my wolf pacing restlessly inside me. “It’s over, Cyrus,” I said, stepping forward. “Your army is gone. Surrender now, and maybe we’ll let you live.”His laugh echoed across the field, cold and sharp. “You think I’m afraid of dying, Gaius?” he spat. “You think this is the end for me?”“It is,” I said firmly, my voice calm but unyielding. “You’ve lost everything.”Cyrus took a step forw

  • My ex-Luna came back for revenge   Stop!

    GaiusAs I carried Evelyn’s unconscious form through the dense forest. My arms tightened around her as I pushed forward, my heart pounding with a mixture of fear and urgency. She felt so fragile in my hold, and the thought of her being hurt clawed at me.Behind me, Raven led the way, limping but determined. Despite her battered appearance, her eyes burned with a fierceness I hadn’t seen in years. She had gathered guards and allies in a makeshift camp deep in the woods—a safe zone where we could regroup and plan our next move against Cyrus.The soft murmurs of voices and the faint glow of campfires appeared ahead. Relief flooded through me. At least we’d reached some measure of safety for the moment.The guards at the perimeter stiffened as we approached, their weapons raised until they recognized us. “Alpha Gaius!” one of them called out, rushing forward.“Clear a path,” I ordered, my voice tight. “She needs care.”They stepped aside without question, their faces etched with concern a

    CyrusThe chamber reeked of sweat and blood. My throne, carved from blackened stone, felt harder beneath me as I stared at the rogue kneeling before me. His head was bowed, his body trembling.“How many this time?” I asked, my voice low and steady.The rogue flinched, his fear bleeding into the silence. “Three squads, my Lord,” he stammered. “They... they deserted last night.”I sat back, my fingers curling around the armrests of the throne.“Three squads,” I repeated slowly, “And what did they take with them?”“S-supplies, my Lord,” he whispered, barely able to meet my eyes. “Weapons, food... they stole what they could carry.”My wolf stirred, snarling at the edges of my mind. Traitors. After everything I had done—everything I had sacrificed—this was how they repaid me?“You’re telling me,” I said, rising from my seat, “that a third of my army has turned tail and fled? That they think they can run from me?”The rogue didn’t answer. He didn’t dare.“Look at me,” I commanded, my voic

    Evelyn My chest burned with each breath, my muscles aching from the effort of keeping Gaius moving. He leaned heavily on me, his strength waning, but his stubbornness kept him upright.“He’s getting closer,” I said breathlessly, glancing over my shoulder.The warrior loomed in the distance, his enormous frame tearing through trees and underbrush with ease. His glowing green eyes locked on us.Gaius gritted his teeth. “We just need to make it a little farther.”“No, we don’t,” I said, coming to a sudden stop.Gaius staggered as I pulled him to a halt. He turned to me, his face pale and bloodied. “What are you doing?”I straightened, letting go of his arm. “We can’t keep running. You can’t keep running.”“Evelyn, don’t,” he said, shaking his head. “We have to keep moving.”“No,” I said firmly. “We won’t make it. He’ll catch us, and when he does...” My voice trailed off, the words catching in my throat.Gaius’s eyes softened, but only for a moment. Then his jaw set, and he stepped in fr
