Blake's POVI was captivated by her presence and couldn't help but stare at her. She was mesmerizing and breathtaking since the first day I set my eyes on her. I can't deny that there isn't something that drew me to her, something special apart from our special bond mate. There just had to be an invisible force that compels me to her and also makes me want to learn new things about her.She was very different and unique in a way that stirred something up in me, deep within.She might be an omega but she was just too beautiful to be just an omega and I was curious to know her more. Her type won't have warranted a second glance from me but like I said she had become the center of my world.As much as I was interested in finding other things about her, I had to task my beta, Felix, to help me with some findings about her. Who was she? Who are her parents? Where they are and likes and if she was actually telling the truth about her past to me. But I don't think anyone with reasonable sense
Gwen's POVIt had been an amazing day with Blake as I collapsed into my bed. As tired as I was, my mind couldn't help replaying all the beautiful moments spent with him. His promise and obvious care for me. I was grateful for this lot, never ever have I thought someone would care for me deeply but here I was. Then I remembered the moment Blake said he wanted to tell me something.And for a short hopeful moment, I thought he was going to confess his feelings for me but I think I got over myself with that as he brushed it off as nothing. I shouldn't have gotten over myself, he cared for me platonically even though it wasn't as romantically as I thought. I am okay with that, at least he cared for me which was better than my treatment in Stormfur Pack over the years.Though this harsh reality bit and gnawed at me, I allowed my resolve to be hardened. I needed to clean up and the thought of getting up to do that felt like work. I was becoming lazy!Just then there was a knock on my door wh
Gwen's POVBlake's question bothered me but in a good way. For a few seconds, I wondered what his meaning was. Did he really want us to sleep together?Not like I had a problem with that but I took a little time to process his words."Hey, don't think it through so deeply, I was only joking." He had this very sincere look in his eyes that I almost cursed him for such an expensive joke.I remained quiet unable to voice my intentions and desires as well."I'll arrange for the maid as you have requested but in the meantime I think you need to rest a while. Blake was so gentle that I hated myself for repeatedly thinking too much about so many things.'He is just a good guy that genuinely cares about you, Gwen!' I scolded myself inwardly for ever thinking otherwise."Do you by any chance mind if I cross a fancy line and trespass a little?"Wait what?!What was he talking about?"Huh?" I could barely comprehend his meaning, I raised a questioning brow but he only asked for courtesy sake, my
Gwen's POVI woke to a piercing ring in my eyes as I felt a strong surface around me, the sensation I got was both comforting and unfamiliar. I opened my eyes and everything was blurry for a minute before my eyes adjusted and I found myself staring into the piercing blue eyes of concern that belonged to Alpha Blake.His eyes held a mixed expression of worry and concern and something else… something deeper than I could place a finger on. I slowly averted my gaze from his and allowed it to wander around the room. I was still in my room but on Alpha Blake's arm. I caught sight of Aurelia and Elgiva standing nearby, they both looked sad, anxious, and curious and I could understand their emotions. Their first day of serving me hadn't gone well.My eyes finally caught the sight of Nora who was hovering over her healing tools and some visible herbs and she had a face masked with cold disdain. I know that look anywhere, it was the only way most people at Stormfur Pack looked at me and I have
Gwen's POVI was taken aback by Blake's question as I stared at him in utter confusion. Why would he say such a thing? How does my fainting have anything to do with killing him?“Blake, what do you mean by that? I didn't even know when I fainted or why I fainted even though Nora said it was a result of stress and I should rest! I literally don't know what you mean,” I asked him, concerned and confused etched across my face.But instead of answering my question, he inhaled sharply and loudly which caused his shoulder to rise and fall with the deep breath he took. He just shook his head at me before standing up from where he was seated.“I will never try to kill you as you have only been the kindest person I have come across in my whole twenty plus years on earth,” I said to him, trying to answer to the best of my knowledge. Why would he think I was to kill him? That's absurd, isn't it?“Don't worry about what I said, it is not of any importance!” He said with a soothing yet distant voi
Gwen's POVI stirred in my sleep as I became conscious of my surroundings and woke up, I opened my eyes to see Alpha Blake beside me, smiling.His presence provided a comforting anchor in the midst of turbulent turmoil going on within me. I suddenly felt teary as tears gushed from my eyes, spilling over at an uncontrollably rate. I don't know what had come over me but I was just emotional.My thoughts were behind me and I wasn't myself anymore, I wrapped my arms around Alpha Blake's neck without even thinking and sobbed into his broad shoulder. He also wrapped his strong arms around me and started murmuring soothing words with a steady balm voice which alleviated my fear and melancholy demeanor.“Hey, Gwen! What's the matter? It's okay! You don't have to cry anymore! You are safe in my arms!” He said aloud, consoling and calming me but I just continued to pour out onto his shoulders.He was gentle and calm and even patient as he just allowed me to continue crying, he then started strok
Gwen's POVBlake put me under his watch throughout the day. I was with him and whenever I protested or informed him of my need to just be alone in my thoughts, he would glare at me hard.“I see it's your plan to kill me as soon as possible!” He said to me in the morning after I had used up all the herbs Nora brought for me then he requested I follow him to his room but I refused.“There you go again! And how do I intend to kill you?” I asked him, if he thought I was about to kill him, I might as well know the way he thought I was going to do that just in case it's useful.“With your carelessness towards your own health! I can't afford to lose you, Gwen! You already fainted twice and we don't know what will happen next! What if you find yourself in a not so conducive area and you faint again, do you know the result of such action? I can't let the mistake I repeated the first time happen the second time!” He explained, rubbing my arm.“Was that what you meant when you said, you were too
Gwen’s POVI stood at the window, my eyes fixed on the forest that surrounded the pack’s territory.My heart was in turmoil. Since he left with Felix, his Beta, to investigate the issue in their territory, I hadn't heard from Blake. Tears gushed down my cheeks as I held the edge of the windowsill, my knuckles white from holding it so tight.Aurelia and Elgiva, my two maids, hovered nearby with worried expressions on their faces. Aurelia gently stroked my shoulder and said, "Please, Lady Gwen, try to calm yourself.""Alpha Blake is a strong and capable leader. He can handle whatever comes his way."I shook my head, sobbing loudly. “What if something happened to him? What if he's hurt, or worse? I can't stand not knowing."Elgiva knelt beside me, offering me a tissue. "Alpha Blake has faced many challenges before and has always come back victorious. He'll come back to us, Lady Gwen. You must have been strong and positive."I wanted to believe them, I truly wanted to. But it was too mu
Gwen's POV They won't stop chanting loudly as they go around me. From the ground rose thick white air which engulfed me, I was confused but excited at the same time. The traditional drum kept being beaten at a loud dramatic pace as if to invoke something into me. Then suddenly everything stopped and unconsciously I felt like striking a pose. I placed my left hand on my waist then my right hand up to strike a wave with a pleasant wide smile on my face. I couldn't see anything because of the air around me which slowly started to fade away and I saw Blake standing before me, upon seeing me, he gave me a very beautiful smile. "Luna Gwen Moore stands before you! Bow!" Someone yelled almost startling me but Blake's eyes on me were doing things I didn't understand and know. "We hail Luna Gwen Moore!" They all chorused.Everyone bowed before me except my husband who walked to me, took my hand, and brought me down from the platform then walked down the pathway I took while coming in. The dr
Gwen's POV The day I had been waiting for it had finally arrived. It is my wedding day. And I woke up to the soft light of the dawn streaming through the windows, nicely and beautifully. I should have known today was going to be a very beautiful day indeed. I felt excitement fluttering in my chest, down to my stomach as this was a day I had dreamt of constantly. I will become the Luna today and be married to Blake, the love of my life, my one and only true mate, and the father of my child. I was so excited and nobody could tell me otherwise, just then there was a knock on the door as my maids entered. They both bowed and greeted me in unison. "Good morning, Luna Gwen! Congratulations on this beautiful day!" They chimed with so much joy and happiness, which was evident in their voices. Luna Gwen! I am no longer Lady Gwen! I smiled broadly as I beaconed on them to come closer to me and I gave them a big hug. "Thank you, Aurelia and Elara! And good morning to both of you!" I said to

Gwen's POV I tossed around as I opened my eyes, catching the gentle morning light that filtered through the curtains. Then my eyes caught the presence of Blake who was lying beside me with his gaze intensely fixed on me. He looked so concerned, worried and... afraid? But his expression was tender. I looked around wondering how I got on the bed and who changed me. I was still trying to piece everything together when I heard Blake's voice soft and filled with curiosity. "Good morning, sunshine!" He greeted me as he pulled me into his arms, he seemed relieved when I didn't push him or say anything. "Are you okay?" He asked me as I turned to look closely. That's weird to ask someone who just woke up. I hesitated as I thought about what to say as the event of last night flowed into my head, and even though I didn't want to keep him in the dark anymore, this was for his good! Maybe I shouldn't have kept him distant at first and just come clean with everything but that opportunity is lo
Gwen's POV My breath was ragged with fear and anger towards this creature before me, I slammed the door hard in her face before turning and locking the door. I froze in terror as I took in Nora's form before me. She was just standing outside, how could she be inside my room? I seem to have forgotten the kind of creature she is. She stood in the shadows of the room with a wicked smirk plastered in her face and I could even feel it.I gasped as I almost entered the door and slipped down almost to the floor, in a sitting posture. I felt her eyes darkening with something more sinister than anger at me as she started laughing high and wickedly.“Hi, Gwen!" She greeted me before stepping forward, I almost pissed my pants, literally or not! "What are you doing here? How did you get in?" I asked her in a trembling voice. Demanding the truth of something I already know. "We both know, you know what I am capable of doing, so drop that foolish act of yours! It won't help you as it won't help
Blake's POV I looked out the window of my office as the evening wore on and took over the day. I walked back to my seat and glanced at the papers strewn across my desk. Over the hours that I have been in here, I have not been able to focus on anything. I sat down and tried to do my best to understand what was before me when I heard a knock on the door. “Come in!" I beckoned to the person at the door. Aurelia, one of Gwen's maids, walked into the office and then bowed. I straightened up at her presence and what she possibly had for me. “So what did she say?" I asked her when she was taking forever to open her mouth and talk. “Alpha Blake, good evening! I have been instructed to tell you by my lady, that she won't be coming down to eat dinner or with you either. She would love to eat dinner in her room!” She informed me. "Again?” I asked her. She nodded as her eyes were glued to the floor. "Yes, Alpha Blake!” She replied quickly and quietly. I watched her keenly and smelt the emot
Blake's POV I turned abruptly upon hearing my name, only to see Nora smile at me pleasantly like she had just won an award for the best at something. It was normal but it just felt weird. I was so confused and worried as a thought gnawed within me that she might have heard me and Gwen's conversation. She can't know that Gwen is pregnant, I don't know why she must not know. I might just be paranoid or maybe have some unnecessary fatherly instincts but I just feel something bad, something terrible is going to happen. And I am avoiding that at all costs. My heart started beating hard with fear and worry that she might know, I had to know if she knew something so I stomped over to her with anger simmering just beneath the surface but it was still obvious that I was angry. “Oh my goodness! What are you doing here? Tell me, what are you seeking? When did you get here? How long have you been standing here?" I questioned, my voice tinged with suspicion I was trying to hide and suppress.
Blake's POV “Oh shit!" I yelled, hitting the headrest before me. I should have kept it in, I should have controlled myself, now I could only stare at her as she walked away while regretting my outburst. “Oh shit!" I uttered again with deep regret. I screamed into my hands, letting out a frustrated groan then I sighed, adjusted myself then stepped out of the car. I gestured at the driver for the shameful drama that happened behind him. She bowed and got back into the car before driving away to the garage. I walked straight to the entrance and wasn't fully concentrated when I almost bumped into Nora. I wanted to walk away when she came into my way and bowed deeply. I moved back wondering what she was up to. “I would like to use this medium to say I am sorry for being rude to you Alpha Blake. I shouldn't have spoken to you that way and I apologize. I tried to get your audience these past two days but you were just so unavailable!" She apologized and then stood straight with her head
Blake's POV I looked out the window as I sighed for the umpteenth time, the journey back to the pack house just felt longer than usual because of the unsettling silence in the car. I turned to look at Gwen who had just been staring out the window with her face masked with detachment from everything around her even myself. I just couldn't fathom her or understand what was going on in her head or with her entirely. She was lost, suddenly moody, and looked unhappy, I couldn't even reach out to her as she was completely gone. I tried to break the thick tensed-up silence again so I cleared my throat and turned my full attention to her. “Gwen, don't you find it unbelievable? I still find it unbelievable that I will be a father, and that we will be parents in a few months. And this is exactly what I have dreamt about for years even before I met you and you have given me this bundle of joy on a platter of gold! I'm excited and grateful, my lady!” I said to her as she adjusted a little and
