SeleneI stood still when I heard his rough voice closely behind me “T..to my room” I stuttered facing him.He tilted his head to the side, “You need to take a shower” He uttered scrutinizing me.“Yes, I will do that in my room” I turned towards the door clicking the door knob.“Is there something chasing you from this room?” I turned to face him in surprise as he cocked his brows in confusion.“A commoner shouldn't sleep in the Alpha’s chamber” I reminded him while he blinked his eyes.“Use my bathroom,” He said, heading to the bed.“I’m sorry what?” I asked but he ignored me.I stood there for a few minutes before heading to his bathroom. I wrapped the bathrobe on my body after I was done scenting like him.“Change into this,” He offered me one of his tops and walked out immediately.I wore the top which was a plus size on me and headed to the room “I will go to my room now” I scratched my neck as he lay on the freshly changed sheets.“I am not done with you” He uttered in a gruff t
SeleneTwo weeks have passed since my fateful encounter with Lucien, and a fragile sense of tense calmness has settled over the pack.The Alpha's attention has been absorbed by pack affairs, allowing me to steer clear of Olivia's watchful gaze. Yet, I can't shake the feeling that something is amiss with the Alpha's behavior. But my concerns are overshadowed by the looming threat of the full moon, which will soon reveal whether I carry the Alpha's heir. The weight of this uncertainty hangs heavy, as today's moon's reckoning will determine my fate. Will I be reduced to a mere slave, or elevated to a position of power within the pack?The outcome is far from certain, and the pack's eyes will be upon me, waiting to see which path I'll take.“Are you scared?” Emery popped out from nowhere.“Ohh my goodness, you startled me” I held my breath glaring at her.“I didn't mean to, you have been staring into the space for over how many minutes” Worry was laced in her words as she patted my shou
SeleneLike a city ravaged by the wraith of plague, I've become a shadow of my former self, desperate to avoid the pack's scorn.Since the full moon, I've been a prisoner in my room, too afraid to venture out after the tense encounter with one of the maids in the kitchen. The pack's animosity towards me is palpable, and what's more, the Alpha's indifference cuts deepest of all. His silence and disregard for my well-being have become a constant reminder of my precarious position within the pack. As I hide away, waiting for the storm to pass, I can't help but wonder “Will I ever find a way to escape this toxic dynamic, or will I remain forever trapped in this web of fear and rejection?”“What am I still doing here when nobody is willing to talk to me?” I groaned while Emery chuckled.“I am talking to you, or is it that you can't see me?” She waved her hands in front of me.“He is even avoiding me” I mumbled while she patted my back.“Everyone will come around trust me, they just need
DamianMy world was turned upside down when it was revealed that she wasn't pregnant. In a moment of raw emotion, I lashed out, and our fragile bond was left dangling by a thread. Avoiding her seemed like the only way to escape the guilt that gnawed at my conscience. But the truth is, I crave her presence, her touch, and her warmth. Despite Olivia's hold on my heart, I find myself drawn to Selene like a moth to flame. “Where is she? And what secrets is she hiding behind those enigmatic eyes?" The news of her spending time with Lucien was a blow to my ego while my wolf taunted me for not treating her well enough.I burst into her room, ready to unleash my fury, but the sight of her sleeping form disarmed me. The soft rise and fall of her chest was hypnotic, and I found myself drawn to her, sitting down beside her to gaze at her peaceful face, my anger melting away with each gentle breath she took.“Good morning” I watched her yelp as her pecky breast bounced within the thin line of
SeleneI woke up with his arms wrapped around me. He was vulnerable with me last night but I didn't want to get my hopes high.I glanced at my reflection in the mirror before heading to the dining room. As usual, his woman was clinging onto him for her dear life, one would think she lived in this pack.I ate my meal quickly and headed out of the dining room. I need to be pregnant before the next full moon and it bothers me.“I wonder what will be my fate if I don't get pregnant” I exhaled, the event of that night creeping through my brain while I tried to shake it off.“There you are” I heard Emery’s bubbly voice behind me.“Hey,” I smiled as she settled near me.“What are you thinking?” She asked, scrutinizing me.“What if I don't get pregnant?” I asked while she sighed.“The doctor said you are fit to bear an heir, you don't have to worry” She assured me.“I’m just scared” I mumbled “In no time the full moon will come out and that will determine my fate.” I expressed my fears.“Don
Damian “It's been long since you visited that place, what changed?” Adrain threw me a surprise glance when I told him where I was going.“I can't run forever” I shrugged, casually asking him if he wanted to tag along but he declined respectfully.I headed to the highest floor and strolled to my destination when I saw an unexpected figure staring with anticipation at the door.“How did she get here?” I thought observing her every move, she wanted to see what was inside the room.I questioned her on what she was doing there but her answer was quite shady. To inflict fear in her I made Adrain give her some punishment and I also made a mental note to punish the servant in charge of that particular door for leaving his duty post.She avoided my gaze all the while she served our meal, it itched me a lot that I started feeling a pang of guilt after seeing her little bruises.I almost lost it when Olivia slapped her for spilling a glass of juice on her clothes and how she handled the situati
SeleneEvery sound faded in the background when I read the first line of the letter from my supposed best friend.Although I wanted you dead, I am glad you didn't die at least you get to attend my mating ceremony with your mate, opps Ex mate…..I felt my tears slipping away blocking my vision and making it impossible to read the rest of the content.I felt a gentle tap on my shoulder as I heard him asking me if I was okay “How can I be okay?” I mentally yelled, tightening my grip on the letter.I finally glanced at the concerned look or should I say pitiful look “I am fine” I roughly wiped my tears but they just kept falling.“I am going to kill of all them” I heard Lyra scream.“Adrain please excuse us,” “Come sit,” He said softly, leading me to the couch as Adrain left the office.“It's okay not to be okay, you can cry as much as you want” He uttered in a reserved tone as my tears fell freely.I cried for what felt like hours until there were no tears left and during that time I co
SeleneWho knew that training to be a reputable woman for the Alpha was much of a hassle, I could feel my back aching and my legs throbbing from it.“I have never seen Olivia with such quality,” I thought.The lady assigned to train me took the work more seriously than I had imagined.“You are indeed a true leader” The words from her kept me pondering as I sprawled lifelessly on the bed.“What does she mean by that?” I mumbled, I have a very faint memory of my childhood days, and although I have wanted to know about my past, the fear of what I will discover kept hindering me.“What are you thinking about?” I abruptly sat up when I heard his voice.“Alpha, I didn't hear you come in” I bowed as he settled beside me.“How is the training going?” He asked, scanning me.“More like a death sentence, my whole body aches” I whined while he chuckled.“Freshen up and meet me downstairs in 10 minutes” He stood up walking towards the door while I looked perplexed.“Ughhh” I dragged my hair feelin
Author's POVSelene screamed as she was thrown into a vehicle, she held her stomach being protective of it.She couldn't see where she was but she could hear an engine starting up and the car moving.She tried to scream again but a slap was passed across her face before her mouth was tied up.She wept silently and prayed to the moon goddess that nothing would happen to her and her unborn child.Shortly the car stopped and she was shoved out of the car. The air hit her as she was dragged into a place and pushed onto a chair before she was tied up.Her mouth was untied and she screamed, her tears falling freely “Who are you people and what do you want?” She asked, trembling.“You have hurt one of us and you will pay for it” She heard the rough voice of a stranger.A cold chill ran down her spine.************CRIMSON MOON PACKDamian scanned around for any sight of Selene but couldn't find her. His worry grew increasingly. “Lucien, have you seen Selene?” He asked, his brows scrunched up
SeleneI dressed up quickly and headed back to the office. “Where is she?” I asked, locking my gaze on Adrian.He coughed, gazing at my hair “What?” I asked, darting my eyes to Damian whose face was cast downwards.“Your hair looks disheveled,” He muttered.I widened my eyes in embarrassment running back to the bathroom to fix myself.I scratched my neck, after I stepped back inside “We were doing a pillow fight, I told him it was a silly thing to do” I whined, smiling nervously.He chuckled, “Yes, I understand. Dorathus is in the dungeon” He said.I sighed in relief as he changed the topic “We will see them tomorrow” Damian said.After he left, I sat on the couch slamming my face “Adrain will think I am a pervert” I groaned.Damian chuckled “This is what normal couples do, it's nothing to be ashamed of” He coaxed.I nodded, remembering why I came here in the first place “Have you thought about Axel?” I asked.He sighed, settling on his seat “Although I am having a double mind, we wil
SeleneMy eyes were wide with shock at the people she just mentioned. I chuckled, “This is a joke. It can't be true right?” I asked, my heart beating rapidly.“It's the truth, Dorathus has always been my messenger. All those strange letters you got were us throwing a bait, Damian was taking too much time, I had to take over” She snapped.I gasped “Oh my goodness,” I said, my voice barely audible.“Wolftamer thinks he can back down after we have gone this far. Since he went to that mountain he has become off and then you visited him and charmed him” She screamed.“He has refused to supply me the concoctions anymore claiming that you are innocent and he can't bring himself to harm you” She snarled.“So you weren't sick, all this was a lie to gain power and rule. For over twelve years you laid in a vegetative state for this?” Damian asked.“I don't care if I have to stay twenty-five years as long as I achieve what I want,” She screamed.“I will not let you harm this pack and its people b
Damian“I..I, Damian what are you doing here?” My mother asked, smiling nervously.My eyes moved to the supposed maid that poisoned Selene before I gazed scornfully at my mother “Have them all thrown into the dungeon immediately” I yelled.“You can't do that, I am your mother!!!” My mom yelled as she was dragged away.I sat down in confusion, I always thought my mother’s dislike for Selene was because I never told her about Selene while she was in a vegetative state. But plotting with Olivia to eliminate my child, her grandchild is unbelievable.I stood up lazily and trudged to my chamber, when I got in Selene was already sleeping on the couch with a slice of pizza in her hands.Her light snores were beautiful, I chuckled, dropping the bottles of water on the table.I tried to take away the pizza but she held onto them tightly. I succeeded in taking the pizza away from her before carrying her to the bed.I slept off while thinking of how to handle this situation and how to even break
DamianMy mind has been uneasy since Selene went to meet Axel but I decided to act cool with the thought that he wouldn't harm her.I went to check up on Lucien who I bestowed with the responsibility of handling Silver Crescent pack members.“They are blending in and settling down very well, you don't have to worry about them causing problems for the pack” He assured.I nodded and headed to my office to attend to my pending work. I was engrossed in a file when the door opened.I raised my head and found Selene walking in, I smiled, dropping my pen. “You are back?” I asked. She nodded, “Hmm, a maid told me you were in a meeting,” She said.I raised my brows, frowning “What maid?” I asked.She let out a nervous laugh “The one you sent to serve me juice” She replied.I narrowed my gaze, saying “I didn't send anyone to serve you juice”Her face contoured and she ran to the bathroom “Selene!!” I called after her, my eyes widening with shock.There was blood on the sink; she was vomiting b
SeleneI felt trapped in this darkness, I couldn't move or even blink. My body remained motionless.I could hear voices of people both incoherent voices and audible voices but the one that stood out to me the most was Damian’s voice.He was constantly talking to me, filling me in on how his day went, that he was sorry for keeping a secret from me, and then how our unborn child was faring.I wanted to open my eyes but I couldn't. I heard Lyra pleading with me not to give up. I tried and I kept pushing but the pain was too overwhelming.And then I felt my hands move, gradually my eyes blinked and I saw a ray of hope. I fluttered my eyes adjusting it with the light.My eyes met a white ceiling, it moved darting around the room, and there was no one in the room. I was in Damian’s chamber.My hands instinctively went to my stomach.“I am glad I didn't lose you” I whispered.Slowly, I sat up and then I took a deep breath, attempting to stand up. After a successful attempt, I walked carefully
DamianI gazed painfully at Selene as she gradually slipped away, that idiot injected her with wolf's bane, a ton of it.“Drive faster” I yelled, tears rolling down my chin. Immediately our pack came into view, I pushed the door and ran to the pack’s hospital.“Get Doctor Ralph for me” I yelled to one of the nurses.I placed her on the bed and rolled her to the theatre “Alpha you have to wait here” The nurse urged.I peeled my hands away from the bed, stepping back. The light came on and for the first time, I prayed to the moon goddess to save her and our unborn child.Adrian rushed in immediately, “Damian how is she?” He asked.I shook my head, “She is still inside the theatre” I whispered, wiping my tears.I felt a cold run down my spine when I remembered that if I had been an inch late, Selene would have died.Hours passed and I hadn't heard any news from the doctor, the nurses ran out and rushed back at intervals but none said a word.Lucien walked in, patting my shoulder “Damian
Damian“Selene, Selene!!” I called out, chasing after her but Lucien held my hands.“That's enough Damian, you have done more harm than good. I told you not to hurt her again but you didn't listen” He snapped.I pinched the bridge of my nose “Am I supposed to pay for the sins of my father?” I asked.“This is not about paying for your father's sin. The moment you realize that you were in love with her, the least you could do was tell her the truth” He yelled.“The truth was more important than mating her or making her as your Luna talk more of healing your mother who doesn't even approve of her” He snapped.He sighed “Damian, she didn't have to find out this way, this is the highest level of betrayal,” He said and walked off.I sat on the couch, Agatha warned me but I refused. “How was I supposed to tell Selene the truth?” I thought.The door burst open and Adrain rushed in “What happened?” He asked.I explained everything that happened to him, and he sat on the floor “Damian, our past
SeleneI titled my head “Fancy seeing you here” I said, darting my eyes around to be sure I was safe.“I came alone, no need to be scared,” He said, getting close.“Keep your distance” I warned, eyeing him.He raised his hands in surrender “Okay”“What are you doing in this area that, too close to the Crimson Moon pack?” I asked.“I have been here for days trying to get past the borders to meet you but I can't,” He said.“It's called security and if I may ask, why are you looking for me?” I asked, gazing suspiciously at him.“To seek forgiveness” He muttered.I chuckled deeply, “Is that a word?” I askedShock passed through his eyes “I know I and Imogen have wronged you but this is me apologizing for my misdeed” He said.I laughed “I have heard that word a lot, it's now sounding like a broken record,” I said, gazing at him furiously.“You know, I am not even angry at you besides you have every right to reject me but Imogen, a lady I called my best friend, that's despicable” I half yel
