Eleanor was surprised to see Henry. She had been expecting Ethan. Also, she was surprised to see Henry there despite the argument with Thomas the previous day.

Thomas’s face darkened with displeasure the moment he saw Henry, his eyes flashing imaginary daggers at him.

Eleanor stepped forward and greeted Henry. “I was expecting Ethan,” she told him.

“Yeah, that was the plan,” Henry said, giving her a smile. “But I wanted to come get you myself. He thinks I care too much about you.”

Eleanor’s eyes widened a bit, knowing that statement was going to rub Thomas the wrong way. Best to get over with this quick… “I’m ready to go, I’ll just go and grab my stuff–”

“You are not going anywhere,” Thomas interrupted, coming to her side. “My Luna and I have some personal matters to sort out,” he told Henry, “and no one is allowed to take her from the pack. So you can go back and go home. She is not coming with you.”

Henry arched an eyebrow, seeming unfazed by Thomas’s claim. “Well, she says she is c

    Henry walked to the car and started putting on a fresh set of clothes. Eleanor waited a while before attempting to look in his direction again. He was just shrugging on a black leather jacket to complete his outfit.“What if Thomas catches up to us or orders his men to stop us?” she asked.He shook his head, looking towards the forest he had just run through. “He wouldn’t.”“Why not?” she asked. Thomas was determined and angry enough to go after them all the way. Goddess knew what he intended to do once he caught them. His injury must have made him fall behind, but that didn’t mean he hadn’t asked for backup.“He won’t do that because of his pride,” Henry told her.She thought about it, and realised he was right. If Thomas ordered his men to hunt them down, he would be announcing to everyone that another Alpha had taken away his Luna and gotten away.That would undermine his power and make him appear weak to his pack members. His best option was to pretend that he had agreed to let El

  • Rebirth And Revenge: The Betrayed Luna's Return   Welcoming her to Darkfall

    When they arrived at Darkfall, Henry’s subordinates welcomed them in a queue. Eleanor was thrown off by the high profile welcome. It made her feel like she was a very important guest.When Henry introduced her, it was as Miss Lim, his friend, and not Luna Eleanor from Blackstorm. He told everyone that she had come to the pack to study on their advanced werewolf medicine skills.“From now on, as long as you are in my pack, you are no longer anyone’s Luna,” Henry told her when they left the others behind and walked into the house. “You are free to do anything you like, so don’t be afraid to just be yourself.”As Luna, just being herself wasn’t something she got to do often. For every single thing she did, there were ten other things she had to make considerations for. Henry’s invitation was too tempting, but he was right. This was the only place she could truly be herself.“Thank you,” she told him, “I’ll not hold back, then.”He gave her a smile that suggested his next words were nowhe

  • Rebirth And Revenge: The Betrayed Luna's Return   A confusing offer

    Eleanor panicked as Henry kept getting closer even as the distance between them ran out. She stepped back and he just kept coming.There was something more that she was sensing from him that made her even more confused at his sudden action. It was his wolf.His wolf wanted to mark her.She didn’t know what to think about that. It was one thing for Henry to tell her he was attracted to her and liked her. It was an entirely other thing for his wolf to be keen on marking her.She knew how strong the push from one’s wolf could be. If they were keen on something, it took a lot to keep them under control. Whatever feelings Henry had for her, his wolf multiplied them, making them so much more intense.But no matter how breathless he made her whenever she was in close proximity to him, she wouldn’t let him mark her. She did not love him. Not yet.Henry could see the conflicting emotions on Eleanor’s face, could sense her discomfort. If he let his wolf, Will, have his way, he would end up scar

    Eleanor clung on to Henry as he held her, his soothing words slowly bringing her back to the present. It was just a dream. Just a dream. Her heart rate eventually calmed and she could take in steady breaths.When her body stopped trembling, Henry pulled back and looked into her face. “Are you okay now?”She nodded, looking into his dark eyes. With the effect of the nightmare gone, her brain was now fully registering their current position.Henry’s arms were around her body, his bare chest pressed against her. He was shirtless, and she was wearing a nightdress she had found in the closet.Her body warmed up in reaction to his proximity, and her eyes skimmed over him, taking in his muscular physique. He had well-defined muscles, and against her, he felt all masculine.She had gotten a peek earlier when he changed at the car after they got away from Blackstorm, but this was way different.“What did you dream about?” he asked, lifting his hand to her face. He pushed back some strands of h

    The atmosphere around them took a sudden turn. Henry’s confession formed cracks in the walls Eleanor had built to keep him out.She had been keeping her guard up at least until she figured out what his intentions with her were. But now, it turned out the reason he paid her so much attention was simple. She was his saviour, and he had spent years looking for her.It wasn’t fair, she thought, as her heartbeat went off-kilter again.Just when she thought she was well-guarded against him, he took out his trump card, warming her heart all over again.“Finding you was the best thing to happen to me,” he said, stroking her hand with his fingers. “It took me so long to find you, and I’m not going to let you go easily.”She swallowed, her heart beating in her throat.“Do you understand?” he asked, leaning forward.It was at that moment she realised that she had never stood a chance of keeping herself protected from his pursuit. She could have fought against the emotions that he stirred up in h

    The day of Darkfall’s Floral Party finally came, three days after Eleanor’s arrival at the pack. From what she had gathered, it was one of the biggest annual events at the pack.She had been to many parties at other packs before, but never to one at Darkfall. Also, she had never been to one in a personal capacity. It was always as Blackstorm’s Luna, representing her pack’s interests.She wore a white velvet gown, one of the dresses she had found in the closet when she first arrived. The dress had a V-neckline and was sleeveless, fitting her upper body and flaring at her knees. She wore a gold drop necklace that settled in the middle of her chest and matching gold stud earrings. On her feet, she wore white heels to match the dress.The party was being held in Darkfall’s ballroom. The room was large enough to hold dozens of guests. As she walked into the room, Eleanor tried to reach out to her wolf. She didn’t like the idea of being surrounded by strange werewolves without her wolf. It

    Shortly after the first scream pierced through the air, Henry received a frantic message from Ethan through their mind-link. They were under attack by rogues!“What is going on?” Eleanor asked, her worried gaze set upon the building they had just left.“Come,” he said, taking her hand and rushing towards the building. Who had the guts to attack him in his house?They were near the door when it burst open and a werewolf came flying through. Henry instantly positioned himself in front of Eleanor, standing between her and the werewolf. It was a rogue. One of Darkfall’s warriors shot through the door right after and pounced on the rogue.Eleanor looked from the pair and through the broken door. The ballroom was total chaos. Werewolves were running all over the place, some screaming, the warriors engaged with the rogues. She started towards the door, but Henry’s arm stopped her.“Don’t go in there!” he ordered.“I’ve got this,” she said, pushing his arm out of the way and hurrying towards

    The she-wolves were taken aback by Eleanor’s strength and powerful aura–it was almost like an Alpha’s!Eleanor turned away from the dead rogue and walked towards the door, wiping blood from her face. “I’ll take you somewhere safe on the second floor,” she told them. “Stay there and don’t leave until everything is clear.”They removed the couch and she led them out of the room, the broken chair leg still gripped in her hand. She led the group to a safer lounge on the second floor and instructed them to keep the door shut.“Where are you going?” the she-wolf who’d taken charge of encouraging the others earlier asked when Eleanor made to leave.“I have to go help the others,” she said.Close Advisor’s wife scoffed. “You were just lucky down there. Do you think you are a warrior or something? You’ll just be a burden to them.”Eleanor ignored her and smiled at the she-wolf who had asked where she was going. “Stay here, okay? You’ll be safe.”She nodded, and Eleanor walked out of the door a

  • Rebirth And Revenge: The Betrayed Luna's Return   The beginning of a happily ever after

    Eleanor woke up in the morning after the coronation ceremony to the sensation of Henry’s fingers stroking down her arm. Electricity skittered across her skin from the simple contact, waking her completely.“Are you awake?” Henry asked, as if he could tell without even looking at her face, which was buried in his shoulder.“Yes,” she mumbled.He hooked his fingers under her chin and lifted her face. He smiled at her softly before kissing her on the lips. It was a soft kiss at first, but before long, it intensified into their tongues tangling together and her hand rising to sink into his hair.His hand on the other hand went lower, slipping between her legs and seeking her warm centre. She moved her legs apart, granting him easy entry. His fingers teased her nub, rubbing her until she was panting against his mouth and humping into his hand.“Please,” she pleaded, wanting to feel him inside.He pulled his hand away and before she knew it she was lying on her back and he was positioning h

    was the culmination of Henry’s efforts in the past few months, which had seen him rise to the position of the Alpha King of the South.While Blackstorm started rebuilding and putting things back in order, Henry had gotten busy strengthening Darkfall’s territory.The alliance with Jonathan had left most of the rogue packs around Darkfall weak. They had sacrificed most of their warriors and funds in plotting against Darkfall and Blackstorm and helping Jonathan wage his war.They had been promised territories and titles, but with the hybrid’s defeat, all they had gotten were losses. This made it easier for Henry to conquer and absorb them without extending a lot of effort. He also took over Alpha Elroy’s pack, making it part of Darkfall.In the months that followed, he had not faced any serious threat, and Darkfall thrived and became the most powerful pack in the southern region. Soon, all the packs in the region selected him as the Alpha King of the South, asserting his dominance and Da

    The next day, members from the two packs–Eleanor’s and Thomas’s–gathered in the square, awaiting Mia’s trial. Word about her involvement with the hybrid attackers had spread, and everybody was looking forward to her sentence.Her execution would close a chapter everybody wanted to forget and move on from. After that, it would be time to rebuild the pack, as one, to what it was before all the chaos.Mia was tied to a post, with wood arranged beneath her feet. She struggled against the rope around her hands and feet as she cried out, claiming innocence. “She is only doing this because of jealousy!” she screamed so that the people gathered could hear her. “She killed Alpha Thomas because he chose me instead of her, and now she wants to kill me and his only heir.”“Witch!” someone in the crowd yelled and pelted a stone at her. “Shut your filthy lying mouth!”“There were many witnesses present when you killed Alpha Thomas,” one of the warriors who were with Thomas that day said, “and even

    It was then that it occurred to Eleanor that she had not heard from Miller since she came back. She had been communicating with Sophia all along. If something bad had happened to him, Sophia would have told her, right?“Hey, have you seen Miller?” she decided to ask Henry. He had been at the pack before the attacks so she thought he might have an idea about her Gamma’s whereabouts. “I haven’t heard from him or seen him anywhere.”Henry sighed, his chest shifting beneath her. “Did you ever find it funny how he agreed to become your Gamma?”Eleanor frowned and shook her head. “What? Why? No, I…he had promised to support me no matter what, and he wanted the best for the pack. He knew Sophia would be my Beta all along and was okay with the position he got.”“So you think he was just being selfless, giving up his position as the Beta of Blackstorm to be your Gamma?” Henry asked her.Well, there was that, but there was also the fact that Miller had confessed to having feelings for her.Even

    Henry deepened the kiss, his lips moving against hers with strong strokes. Their bodies, pressed against each other with nothing in between, lit on fire as a burning passion passed between and through them.Eleanor pushed him back into a tree, trapping him there while her hands roamed his muscular body. “Will anyone miss you if I lock you up in a room with me for the next one year?” she asked when they pulled back to catch their breaths.“They’ll just have to do without me,” he replied as she pressed her lips to his face. She trailed kisses from his temple and down to his lips, where she only teased him before moving on down to his jaw. He tipped his head back into the tree as she continued on to his throat.He groaned in pleasure when she wrapped her lips around his Adam’s apple and sucked. While she tormented him with her lips, he ran his hands down her back until they reached her ass.He squeezed her cheeks and pressed her forward, letting her feel his hot erection against her bell

    Elroy cracked his neck as he smiled arrogantly. “Once you lose, your territory will become mine.”Good luck, Eleanor thought, wishing he would shut up already. Her wolf growled and hit her paw on the ground, letting him know that he was wasting time blabbering. He seemed to get the message because he shifted back to his wolf form and faced her.Henry got out of the way and the two rushed at each other, growling. They met mid-air and crashed into one another before falling to the ground. Elroy’s wolf lunged for her throat but Harper was quick on her feet and got away.She went straight for his hind leg and snapped it between her fangs. Elroy’s wolf howled and violently pulled himself away, the scent of his blood filling the air.Eleanor wished she could taunt him then, ask him whether he was sure he wanted to go ahead with this. Taunting him like that would make him see red and attack out of spite without caution. It would be a quick way to end this battle.She settled for regarding hi

    Nessa fell to her knees beside her brother, tears streaming from her eyes. “Thomas! Thomas!” she called, holding onto his arm and shaking him. “Don’t do this. Don’t leave me!”A sombre mood engulfed the warriors who had accompanied Thomas and they watched helplessly as his sister cried over his body. It was such a sudden death, and none of them could have imagined that it would be the end for him.They had left Blackstorm determined to aid their former fellow pack members and fix the strained relationship between the two packs. Nobody could have foreseen such a tragedy.Eleanor wrapped an arm around Nessa’s shoulders and pulled her into a hug. The girl turned to her and accepted her embrace, crying into her shoulder.Eleanor wished she had been able to notice Mia earlier and stop her from hurting anyone. Nessa’s pain awakened the despair from losing Liam.She wished that the thought of bringing Mia to justice could do anything to erase the pain she had caused. It would not bring back

    Thomas’s warriors rushed towards him where he lay on the ground unable to move. Eleanor looked up from his body and to Mia, who had shot the arrow.Mia’s eyes were filled with rage as she faced Eleanor. There were about a dozen werewolf warriors baying for her blood, but she did not even seem to be bothered.After being sprung from the interrogation room, it had taken her a while to find her way to the east gate without discovery. Before she could make it there, the building she had taken cover in had blown up. She was lucky to get out alive!She was running on fumes from the anger she felt towards Jonathan. How dare he set off the bombs without first ensuring she was out of harm’s way? She was the one who had introduced the idea to him.She had delivered Henry to him on a silver platter, but he had botched that up to. How could everything go so wrong after everything she had done?She could not believe that he had allowed Eleanor to escape. Was this the she-wolf he regarded far above

    By the time Henry got to Eleanor’s pack, there were buildings up in flames.“What happened?” he asked Sophia when she came to meet him.“There was an explosion,” she told him, and then continued to give him a rundown of the situation. “Fortunately, we were able to evacuate most of the pack members successfully.” Worry took over her features. “However, there are a few Omegas trapped in the kitchen and basement. We are working on getting them out. Some of my warriors are holding off the attackers away from the compound.”“Where is Miller?” Henry asked.“He is keeping an eye on Mia,” she replied.“Coordinate the rescue for the Omegas trapped in the basement and I’ll go check,” he said. “That woman led me and my warriors into a trap, I don’t trust her.”He was already suspecting that she had a hand in the explosions. Jonathan had not had a chance to send a signal before he killed him–at least not one Henry was aware of. So if the explosions had gone off, it had to be one of Jonathan’s spi
