Once again, I failed… And came too late… I watch as the women check on the kids who were crying under a tree. One of the shifters was assisting my wife trying to wake her up, while I watch as two women were checking on my father. “What happened?” I asked as I crouched down beside Lana to check on my wife. “We were ambushed,” the woman beside Lana said. “Seth,” Jericho shouted, “Alpha is in critical condition.” I look at my lifeless-looking wife and my wounded father, torn on which one I should take care of first. I look around and that’s when I notice that something else was wrong. “Where’s our baby?” I asked looking at the woman beside Lana, who was still trying to wake Lana up, “Where’s Nathaniel?” “Honestly,” she said, taking a quick look at me, “I don’t really know.” “Sol!” I said shouting, “Find Nathaniel,” I ordered. “On it, Alpha,” Sol replied as he started checking where the kids were. If there is someone I could trust Nathaniel with, it will be Sol. I look aroun
In the span of one day, three bad things happened to me. My father died. My son was kidnapped. And my wife is in a coma. Right now, I am in a council meeting with the elders of my pack. My wife is still in my grandfather’s medical facility with Sol and Calvin guarding her. My son was nowhere to be found and the only clue we have brought us to a place where the rogue wolves, who attacked my father and Lana, were slaughtered. And here I am, listening as my elders debate if I was worthy to be the next Alpha of the Black Moon Pack. Honestly, I didn’t want the post anymore. I just don’t see the sense in it. But my grandfather insisted that I should not betray my father’s last wishes. This brings me here. “He should not be the next Alpha!” I hear Gamma Jonathan shouting. “And why is that?” Elder Katarin asks. “If he brings that woman back here we would all be in danger,” Gamma Jonathan said in a low voice as if that would be enough for me not to hear him. “It’s not Lana’s faul
The sun was shining brightly and the air is warm but I feel so cold inside. I was seated on the bench under a tree that Seth has created for me. It was one of the most comfortable seats I have ever sat on but right now, it does not feel comfortable.“Hey, Angel,” Seth said as he sat beside me pulling me close to him. I can feel his warmth but still, it was not enough to change the coldness inside of me. It’s been more than a week since the attack and a lot has already happened. I just found out that Seth’s father died, I was in a coma, and my baby, Nathaniel is missing. When I heard about these things I felt my heart being crushed. I cried from the moment I opened my eyes that Seth’s grandfather needed to make me fall asleep just so I can stop. “How are you today baby?” Seth asks but I don’t have the strength in me to answer him. He stood up and crouch down in front of me and looked at me. I can see the sadness in his eyes and even feel the pain in his heart but there was nothing
What can thirty minutes take from you?A lot…I lean my head back on the back of the chair that my father used to sit on. I begin to understand now why he was so firm in buying this chair. The comfort that it gives me while I sat on it was out of this world. I know that being a Pack leader was hard and also so stressful but I never knew how exhausting it is. When my father started training me, I didn’t know that it was just the tip of the iceberg. I was surprised to know that there were a lot of other things to consider. A lot of things to oversee so that the Pack he had always wanted and dreamed of will somehow become a reality. I have so much respect for my father, as he was able to handle all of these things on his own and made our pack one of the best packs out there.A knock on the door of my father’s office door, which has finally become mine, interrupted my busy thoughts. The door opened and Jericho peeked to see if there was someone else in the room. Once he saw that I was
Cal visited me for the first time in the house of Seth’s Aunt. I know that he worries for me, I wanted to tell him to stop worrying but I can’t. I watch as Jericho and Calvin greeted Seth’s Aunt and then slowly walk up to me. Calvin and Jericho have been visiting me when I was still staying at the medical facility of Seth’s grandfather before Seth brought me back here. I look at the two of them and I wanted to smile but my lips won’t move. I was so happy that Calvin finally found the person who would stay by his side and love him for who he really was. I wanted to thank Jericho for being there for him when I couldn’t but once again my lips won’t move.“How are you, Lana?” Cal asks as he took the seat beside me pulling my hand in his. I can see the sadness in his eyes but just like before, there was nothing I can do. I am a shell who forgot what to feel. “I miss you,” he said. I wanted to say that I miss him too but nothing comes out of my lips. Jericho stood silently behind Cal an
I never thought having an answered prayer would make me this happy. I have always thought that the only way to cure Lana was to find Nathaniel. That’s why I never stopped Sol from searching. But to my surprise, Lana appeared in front of me out of nowhere waking me up. I blinked several times just to make sure I was not hallucinating. “Lana?” I called out her name, filled with surprise, “Baby? Is that you?” “Why are you not at home?” She asks as she steps on the light that the moon had provided.Seeing her under the moon’s light made me realize a lot of things. Like, how beautiful she is and how sexy she was with her red hair tied in the back of her head while wearing my favorite shirt. Seeing her standing in front of me not only made not only me happy but also Kai. ‘Damn it! She’s hot!’ Kai exclaimed. And I couldn’t agree more. I can feel Kai’s lust as well as mine, grows with each passing second. I had to close my eyes to control myself from grabbing her and having her lie on th
SETHWhen people experience a lot of bad things that happen to them they tend to stop believing that something good will happen for free. They tend to think that every good thing meant that something is about to come.That’s why despite the authenticity of the intention, people who have been through a lot of bad, begin to question everything. I sat up and looked down at her.“Baby,” I started to say but Lana sat up and places her index finger on my lips making me stop talking. “I know you have a lot of questions,” she started to say, “I know that you have your doubts. I know I have done so many things that make it hard for you to trust me. But please, give me this last chance, please believe me when I say I am not going anywhere.”I looked at her and she looks back at me with eyes filled with so much want and desire. My eyes travel down to her plump lips that I have been longing to kiss for such a long time. But what really caught my attention was her nakedness as the blanket fell aw
It was the first time that I was able to sleep through the night without waking up. I feel the warmth and the softness of the sheets on our bed. Sheets…Bed…Our bed…I jerk up as soon as I realize where I was. I immediately look to my side where Lana was supposed to be and found it empty and clean. Like she had never been there. Was I just dreaming?‘It definitely didn’t feel like a dream,’ Kai said in my head. A part of me know that Kai was right, but a greater part of me was so scared to believe that it was no dream and Lana had decided to run away. I stood up and picked up my boxer shorts and went to the bathroom and found them empty and dry. It was weird because Lana’s scent was faint like she was never here. Was it my imagination?I dressed up hurriedly and took my phone from the bedside table and was rushing out the door. I was almost out of the house when I heard it. I closed the front door and headed towards the kitchen and there she was sitting in one of the chairs, happ
