Lucius' POV:"Lucius, this is our mate, and how beautiful she is."I looked at Livia who was sleeping beside me and Lan’s voice rang out in my mind."This is what it's like to have a mate, this is the love I haven't had in all these years.”I murmured, the moonlight shining on Livia's body, she was sleeping so deeply that she remained unresponsive even as I touched her body.Thinking about it, we had just experienced numerous deep intercourse, and she should be easily tired after just touching this experience.Even though she has proven on multiple occasions that she has the strength more higher than that of my Beta.I looked at her peaceful and beautiful cheeks for some reason my heart throbbed, then couldn't help but hold her tighter.Maybe it was because of the sweetness that made these days go by so fast.During the day I was taking care of Crescent Pack's business, Livia was taking care of me as my mate, and at night it was our own space.In the past fifteen years I never imagine
Lucius' POV:The sound of the wall clock on the wall was getting on my nerves, so I got up from my seat.Perhaps someone at the organizational meeting could come up with a more workable solution.With that in mind I was ready to take Livia to the conference hall, but at this time I heard her voice."Perhaps instead of using strong-arm tactics, we can show the Sigma Pack our good faith to slow down their attacks for now."With that said Livia put that information back on the table, her gaze looking towards me."Although Crescent Pack has recovered a lot, it hasn't trained more forces for the fight, we can take this time to prepare.”Her voice made me freeze for a moment, and then my eyes let out a glow."Livia, you are a genius, this method does have a viable place, and I don't think a pack as powerful as the Sigma Pack would refuse the submission of other wolves."Speaking of this I had some joy as I hugged Livia in my arms and gave her a deep kiss on her forehead.The anxiety in my h
Lucius' POV:"But if you're going to attack, that's taking the lives of the entire wolf pack!"The explorer captain and the trainer seemed to be two extremes, they were swayed by their emotions, and the two actually argued inside the meeting hall.My face became poor at this moment, and a kind of icy coldness also surfaced on my cheeks.Livia would become the Luna of the wolf pack in the future, but these people dared to interrupt her, and this kind of behavior had sparked my anger.I had to let Livia establish her prestige, even if I had to use some cruel means.Just as I was about to stand up and try to get my warriors to take these two men out, I saw Livia slap her palm down on the conference hall table.There was a violent clap inside the conference hall, like thunder suddenly exploding in mid-air, instantly overshadowing the two people's quarrel.The trainer and the explorer captain were taken aback, and even I didn't expect Livia to make such a move. I lowered my head and I saw
Lucius' POV:The day after the meeting, as I was combing through my previous plans, the werewolf from the intelligence office knocked on my door again.I raised an eyebrow and put down the information in my hand, already guessing in my mind what would happen."Come in."After I finished speaking, a Seeker rushed in excitedly, he was the same Seeker captain from before, also breathing heavily, but he was not panicking today."Alpha Lucius, the plan really worked, the Sigma wolves really stopped attacking us after we let someone go to express their sincerity!"Then he placed a reply letter on my table and tempered his breath."This is the reply letter from the Sigma Wolf Pack, we didn't read what the content actually was because it was too urgent.""You go ahead and inform Alex that the executives are coming to the meeting."With that said I picked up the letter, although I had expected it before, but when the plan really worked, I couldn't help but have some joy inside.But I opened th
Livia's POV:"The plans are still being carried out in secret, and with the Crescent Pack's battle force, I will temporarily assign her a quarter of the mobilization rights."The moment Lucius' voice reached my ears, my brain went blank.A quarter, that's a quarter of the battle power, it's countless warriors!I never thought Lucius would give me such power, my head instantly complicated, thinking that those warriors who were powerful a few months ago now need to undergo my command, such news made my heart seem to be hanging in the air, in a long time of shock it did not come back to my senses.I suddenly felt that a responsibility had fallen on my shoulders somehow, a responsibility to lead the wolves to guard the wolves, and I only felt a pressure at the same time, while there was a supreme honor crowning my body.I was almost lost in thought throughout the meeting until Lucius led me to the hill that he had first professed our union."Livuy, later I will give you the young werewolv
Livia's POV:The young wolves were so exhausted from the daytime training that they almost died, and at night they slept directly on the simple fabric.Perhaps because of excessive exhaustion, even in such an environment, the moment they lay down, they almost fell asleep.And I headed for the hill where the sunlight and moonlight kept intertwining, and stayed with Lucius who was in control of the forest on the hill.The training was very intense, and the living environment in the wilderness was not comfortable, only the logisticians to and from the Crescent Wolf Pack could bring some fresh supplies, but I felt overwhelmingly fulfilled.Because my beloved partner, Lucius, was by my side.Time seems to have etched this wonderful memory in my mind forever, and it has become one of the most inseparable parts of my life.This exhausting and happy time lasted for a month, and the stars seemed to shine brighter today."Livia, I admit that your skills are getting better and better."Lucius' v
Lucius' POV:I stood in front of the Crescent Pack gate and looked up at the endless snowflakes. The silvery moonlight made those snowflakes seem to emit light, like a flower emitting light flying in the sky, swirling and drifting down, but making the air even colder."Alpha Lucius, all the warriors are assembled and ready to fight!"Suddenly Alex's voice rang in my ears, and I glanced towards the rear, and sure enough, I found that all of the Crescent Pack's warriors had assembled.They were densely packed, almost filling the front of Crescent Pack, each warrior's face with fierceness and determination, this was all the remaining power excluding the part that Adrian had taken away."What the hell is going on here, why would the Sigma Pack suddenly attack us, didn't they already stop their attack, and in the dead of night when it's snowing like this.""Someone must have leaked the news, damn it, who the hell did this!""Adrian hasn't returned yet, our forces are already much less, bu
Livia's POV:The snowflakes sprinkled salt on everyone's body, and suddenly I saw the little boy with golden hair running again, his voice had no impurities inside."Big sister, how long do we have to get to ah, I feel some cold..."I looked at the little boy's round, reddish face and couldn't help but rub his head, he looked so cute, his facial features was very similar to Lucius', which made me suddenly start to imagine.If Lucius and I had a baby, would it be dark or would it be white hair like mine?"Just a little bit more, see that hill in front of you, that's where our safe house is.”Speaking of which, I took the little boy's hand and suddenly found that his little hand was already cold and had started to glow red at the front of his fingers.This time I looked toward his body, it seems that because of the urgency of the walk, he was not wearing very thick, only a thin and compact outerwear over the body.If this continues, before he safe house, his small hands are likely to be
Livia's POV: Pregnancy was not easy. That I realized as my stomach grew and I became more and more worried. I worried about all the things that could go wrong during childbirth. I did not want to die, I wanted to be there for my child. Besides the worry and fear, there were my moodswings. I had to say that Lucius was very patient with me and I felt bad for him sometimes. I even felt bad for Ylva and Lydia who had to endure my outbursts. Adrian followed me everywhere as Lucius made him my personal guard and once in a while I would yell at him as well. Sometimes because I just wanted to and sometimes for no reason at all. Well, that's what happens when you don't get enough sleep because your stomach is in the way, when you constantly feel hungry and when everything feels uncomfortable. “Lydia, Ylva I do want you to work for me anymore. Bring someone that I won't feel bad yelling at. Like that maid Jessica or anyone I don't like.” I said feeling really bad for my moodswings. “No My
Lucius' POV: “Good morning.” She smiled while tucked under the sheets. “Good morning,” I said, turning so that I lay facing her. “Aren't you late? It's almost lunchtime.” She said. I groaned, not wanting to think of anything else but laying in bed with my mate. “I don't want to leave.” I admitted, reaching for her under the sheets. She was still naked. Good Lord. I wanted to touch her all over again as I remembered her bare body. I always thought she looked beautiful but now she was exquisite. She was fuller, more radiant and alive. She was ravishing. “Not again, Lucius.” She beamed at me. I was touching her under the sheets, enjoying the feel of her. “Why not?” “Because I need to be able to walk.” “Oh, but I would rather have you in bed all day.” I joked. Although it was partly true. “You never get enough, do you?” she shook her head at me. If only she knew. I thought. Livia sat up on the bed and then swung her legs down. “Oh God! She groaned, startled. “What?” “Nothin
Livia's POV: Lucius stiffened and the room went quiet. I could hear my own heart race and it felt like forever before he said, “what did you say?” “I said you will become a father soon,” I told him a bit louder and with more confidence. Slowly, Lucius took a few steps back and then turned away. Oh, God! He was not happy. Hopping down from the table I went to him. I put my hand lightly on his shoulder. “I understand if you are not happy.” Never having a relationship with his parents and what he went through growing up, could explain his reaction. “Happy?” He turned to me carefully and grabbed my arms. “I am not happy Livia. I am lucky. You make me the luckiest man on earth even if I don't deserve it.” I could see a mix of emotions in his eyes. Happiness, sadness and worry. “You deserve every bit of it,” I assured. “And you would be an amazing father.” His hands slid up to my face, holding it gently. “Livia, you are a blessing in my cursed existence.” I didn't know whether to
Livia's POV: When I woke up I'm the morning Lucius was already gone. I scolded myself for not telling him I was pregnant. I knew I was worrying for nothing and that the news would probably make him very happy. After getting dressed I decided to look for him immediately. I went straight to Lucius' office, there I saw him engrossed in the papers in his hands. I cleared my throat to capture his attention. Lucius put the papers down on the table and stood up before looking at me. “Did you already miss me, wife?” He smiled. “Am I disturbing you?” I asked walking over to him. “No, bit you are distracting me much.” He said letting his gaze rake my body. I did nothing to prepare myself so that he found me distracting despite everything, made me confident. Lucius tilted his head to one side and studied me even more closely. “Did you gain some weight?” He asked and my confidence went out the window. “I am not sure,” I mumbled. “You look…” his eyes darkened. I knew that gaze and it brou
Livia's POV: I am pregnant, I am pregnant, I am pregnant. I kept chanting those words to myself everyday. I could still not believe it. How do I tell Lucius? It haven't even been up to two weeks since the incidence that claimed his life, would he be happy to have a child in this mess? He had never said anything about wanting to have a child ever which made me a bit concerned. Somehow I felt that he wouldn't be thrilled. I tried to imagine his reaction in my head several times but I couldn't figure out what his expression would be like. “Ylva… I am pregnant,” I told her as she prepared me for the night. Ylva stared at me through the mirror. Her eyes twinkled with both surprise and happiness. “My Lady…!” She exclaimed after she opened her mouth several times but was not able to say anything. “Can… I hug you… once?” I blinked a few times in surprise. I and Ylva had been very close, closer than with Lydia it she had never asked for a hug before. The only time she hugged me was when
Livia’s POV: I felt as though a storm had struck me. My whole emotions was in a mess. The heartbeat that I heard against my ears were crisp and loud. The urge to press my ears deeper to his chest grew in me, wanting to make sure I wasn't wrong and my ears hadn't lied to me. I didn't want this to be a dream or the sweet illusion that had been repeating in my subconsciousness. When his voice slipped to my ears in the most sweetest way, once again a wave of emotions washed my entire heart. My tears filled the rim of my eyes and tears slowly dribbled uncontrollably from my eyes. I slowly lifted my chin up, looking around to feel his hand around me before my emerald eyes finally met with Lucius' deep red ones. “I'm sorry, did I make you wait for long?” He asked as though he hadn't died, as though I hadn't killed him and as though it has only been an hour of our separation, when it had been more than 12 hours. 12 hours might be a mere few hours to others, but not to me who bore the guil
Livia's POV: My emerald eyes turned wider, glint of red appeared on my eyes that the serpent didn't miss. Reaching out my hand, I tried to manifest Elise when the serpent began to shake its body, causing large ripples and waves to tower over me. I looked at the upcoming waves as it was about to devour me hungrily. The waves spread wide like a mountain, wanting to eat me alive. My eyes flared brighter with hint of redness as I raised my hand out of impulse and was surprisingly able to create a barrier wide enough to cover the boat from being consumed by the waves. While I was surprised that I still haven't discovered all what I could do with my abilities, I wanted to breathe out in relief, I realized it wasn't the end as the serpent had quickly arrived behind me, rushing towards me. I clicked my tongue, pushing myself on the other end of the boat and ducked down as the serpent was about to take a taste bite on me. During the fight, the creature didn't help me. Instead he continued t
Livia's POV: A single boat coasted towards the shore, at the side where I stood. On the end of the boat was a creature who was cloaked in black. Its body was shorter than mine as his back was hunched forward. From underneath his cloak, his black bones hands held the wooden paddle on his hand. Though his eyes was covered, I could feel it moving towards me as if he knew I needed to cross this deadly river. “You… are coming to the boat?” The hoarse voice of the creature was shrilling and there was a delay in his first words as if his tongue was having a difficulty on speaking quickly. I nodded my head before putting my feet on the surface of the boat. As I went onboard, the creature looked at me. No words exchanged, but I could see his displeasure, “Soul… give me.” “I won't be fully crossing the sea to the abyss,” I answered, “And only crossing the sea to the abyss would I need to pay, don't I?” The creature huffed to show his annoyance but he didn't reply as I was correct. While cr
Livia's POV: In the forest of the Crescent Pack, the place where I had found my Mate and my peace, a place which I had considered a safe haven now haunted me with memories of I and Lucius. I felt empty as a part of me now became lost, Elise, my wolf had been quiet and hadn't let out a sound since the minute Lucius gave out his last breath. I had prevented Adrain from coming along in order for me to gain full concentration. I was certain that no matter how narrow my chances were of seeing Lucius again, it would be enough for me to bring him back to life. I went deep into the forest till I hit to the spot where the old oak tree was planted. I couldn't remember the last time since I came to this part of the forest. The oak tree which stood in front of me now which I had named ‘grandma’ was my solace and healing place when I had no one, but Lucius came along and he became more than just a safe haven for me, he became my paradise and I planned spending every moment of my life in his embr
