I jerked my head in Xander’s direction, my face smeared in dismay. His eyes were coldly fixed on me.

“What?” Aurora whispered, coughing violently.

Alexander ignored her reaction and faced the crowd.

“Elena remains my mate and the Luna of the Dark Moon Pack,” Xander announced, silence followed this announcement.

No one dared stand against his decision.

No one was against it, anyway. They all seemed to agree with Xander.

Xander motioned for two soldiers and had Aurora dragged up from the floor.

“And you… what do I do with you?” he muttered.

Her eyes pleaded for forgiveness but the look on Xander’s showed that he wasn’t ready to give her that.

“Lock her up in the dungeon.”

Aurora shook her head, her lips quivering in fear.

“No! Let me go! Let me go!” she yelled, struggling to get her pale arm out of their grip.

The soldiers dragged her out of the hall, her yells floating and piercing the wall.

Xander looked at me again. My eyes were fixed on the door, a smile of

    “Luna Elena!” I heard that sweet shrill voice behind me and turned around, grinning widely. “Your absence got the better part of me. I couldn’t stop thinking about you,” Glacia added, sprinting towards me. I chuckled and opened my arms wide, Glacia showed off her glittering little teeth and ran into my arms. “I missed you too, Glacia,” I replied, patting her hair playfully. “I need to shower, I can’t stand the odor emitting from my body,” I teased. Glacia frowned and shook her head. “I can’t perceive any odor.”I knew she was only saying that to boost my confidence and make me feel better. I was sure that I saw her crinkle her nose when she hugged me. "Thanks to the moon goddess, Aurora is finally gone," Glacia mumbled. The moon goddess? Did the moon goddess help me in any way? We ambled to my room in silence. When I took the first step into my room, my heart skipped in delight as I felt a warm satisfied sensation wash through my body. I was finally back in my room.

    I didn’t push him away, I don’t want to. I wanted this too. He pressed his body closer to mine and wrapped his hands around my waist. I rubbed my hands against his heavily built chest, rolling my tongue into his mouth. He pushed me towards the bed, and towered above me, disengaging our lips. His eyes burned for a desire that I couldn’t comprehend. Xander tugged on my bathrobe and it loosed, sliding down from my body. I felt shy being nude in front of him. Though this isn’t the first time he has pulled off my clothes, I haven’t been completely naked before him. “Hmmm,” he muttered. Running his finger down to my belly button. “Are we really going to do this?” I breathed out. Xander’s eyes darkened as they stuck to my flushed face. “Don’t you want it?” he muttered. I swallowed hard, unable to answer. What should I tell him? That I love it and I want more? “I understand you’re scared. You don’t have to be, though. I’m right here and I won’t hurt you, I will mak

    I felt my face heat up when he muttered those smutty words.He resumed scrubbing my body. With the way he washed me, it felt like all the dirt and scars on my body had been washed away. I couldn’t help but start wishing that this would happen every day.After a long unforgettable shower, he cupped me up and dried my body with a furry towel, he took turns squeezing my plump nipples, giving them special attention.“You smell better now,” he muttered as he wrapped a bathrobe around me.I pouted, annoyed at his words.“Do I smell bad earlier?”He smirked and carried me out of the bathroom in a bridal style.“No, why will you?” he dropped me into a couch and captured my lips.I groaned in excitement and wrapped my hands around his neck, pulling him closer.I was about to deepen the kiss when he broke out and sighed.“You should eat something,” he breathed and placed the tray on a coffee table in front of me.I sighed, my body begged for more of him.Yes, I am hungry, but not fo

    ElenaMy heart thumped loudly with each step I took.The feeling of sadness that inhabited my heart earlier had disappeared and a new, completely different feeling replaced it. The feeling of happiness and uncertainty.It's been months since I last saw a member of my family, I wondered how they were faring and what had become of them since I left.My marriage wasn’t the kind that every girl will crave to have, it was sudden and though it wasn’t forceful, I had no other choice at that time. Be with the Alpha or lose your life.My marriage to the Alpha separated me from my parents and sisters. It was like I was taken into slavery, a false slavery.My feet stopped shuffling when I saw Melsa seated on a wooden bench, her back turned to me.I inhaled deeply and fastened my pace to where she sat.

    ~Elena ~ My heart dropped into my belly and my chest tightened as I slowly turned around to face whoever my sister called ‘mate.’ Praying that it doesn't turn out to be who I thought it was. My throat suddenly became parched and I felt my heart break apart when my eyes fell on Alpha Xander. Xander’s startling eyes were fixed on Melsa who was lost in her world of shock. “What… what is going on here?” I stuttered, glancing from Xander to Melsa. I don’t want to believe that the mate my sister was talking about is Alpha Xander. It can’t be! I and Xander are mates now. What if this turns out to be true? We made love last night, how will we face each other if this turns out to be true? I shook my head as my chest tightened out oxygen from my body. My eyes began to dilate as my head swirled. None of them noticed my presence as they had their eyes stamped on each other’s faces. “Alpha?” I stuttered, and the tears gathering in my eyes began to blur my vision. Xander averted

    ~Elena~ Nathan’s forehead crinkled in confusion as I snapped out of his protective grip, glaring venomously at him. “What’s wrong, Elena?” He asked, narrowing his brows. I scoffed and wrapped my arms around my chest. “Drop the act, Nathan, I know the real you,” I snapped. His jaws dropped and he stuttered, unsure of the right reply to my sharp accusation. “What are you talking about, what have I done?” He raised his shoulders, his grey eyes blinking innocently. “Why did you harass my family? Why didn’t you vent your anger on me instead?” I growled and he took two steps backward. I could tell what he was thinking; ‘Where did this little weak Omega get her courage and confidence?’ His large grey eyes roamed shockingly around my face. I smiled in triumph at the statement I made up in my head. I suddenly liked my new self, the confident and audacious Luna Elena. The expression on his face revealed that he didn’t like my display of behavior, and I loved it. I love whatever h

    ~Alexander~“What are you saying, you’re no longer a baby, you’re…” she paused. The comprehension of what I meant dawned on her and she froze in my grip and stuttered, I felt her heart race. “Won’t you like your baby to suck a little bit of it?” I muttered. She gasped and inhaled, spinning around to face me. “You should attend to your duties,” she rasped, her breathing got heavier at every second that ticked by. She tried to smuggle me out of my grip, but I tightened my hold on her, making it impossible to escape. “Alpha,” she sighed, giving up to me. “Can I have a little bit of it, hmm?” I mumbled, staring at the mounds on her chest. She followed my eyes and her cheeks heated up when she caught what I was staring at. “Stop it you’re making me feel…” “Wet?” Her face reddened and she hid her face away from me. “Can we do this later? I need to see the Queen Luna,” she mumbled. I groaned and let her go. She giggled and sauntered towards the door, she sprinted ou

    ~Elena~ “Let her go!” I watched Xander toss her off to the wall, fuming monstrously. His blue eyes were horrifyingly dark and the sight of his clenched fist pushed my heart into my belly. I swallowed hard and managed to direct a glare at him, hoping he wouldn’t avert his anger at me. I had curiously followed him earlier when I saw him leave immediately I stepped out. The torture I saw him give poor Aurora was sickening, I wondered if I could survive such strangle. What if he had killed her? If I hadn’t intervened, would he have killed her for my sake? I love how possessive and protective he is towards me, but I can’t watch him end a life for my sake. Be it Aurora or someone else. Aurora’s whimpers drifted into my ear and I craned my neck to her direction. I stared unbelievably at Aurora who was pleading shamelessly in the dimly lit cell. Aurora was begging. How is that possible? I glanced back at Xander and frowned, his dark eyes were still fixed on Aurora.

    ~Elena(Louisa)~ It was hard trying to convince Kayla and my foster parents to let me go, though they had no other choice but to heed my request. I was told that I was found floating on the shore of a beach the day they found me. They took me to the hospital and had me saved but when I woke up, I couldn’t remember anything about myself, not even my name. My foster parents, who had lost their daughter a month before they found me, took me in and named me after her, Louisa Neville. I was given the nickname ‘Luna’ because they thought I had a peculiar scent that didn’t belong to the human race. It was hard being who I wasn’t and leaving who I was but somehow, the cruel fate that separated Xander and I eight years ago was able to bring us back together, this time in a different way, in the best way. I wasn’t a contract Luna, nor Nathan’s mate. I was Alpha Xander’s true Luna, his fated mate. And this time around, nothing will be able to separate me and Xander. “Are you

    ~Xander~ I touched her pale face, tracing her chin with my fingers slowly. She stirred and fluttered her lashes, groaning loudly as her hand flew to her forehead. “Elena?” I called out even if she might decline to be Elena like she did the first time we met. Her eyes snapped open and she sat up on the bed. She glanced around the room and her eyes fell on her parents and sisters. "Mother, father," she gasped out and my brows snapped up in surprise. They gasped out and wrapped their hands around her. "I missed you so much, sister," Areola sobbed and hugged her. Melsa walked closer to Elena and rubbed her cheeks. "You are alive?" she muttered with tears glistening in her eyes. I watched Elena nod her head before burying her head on her shoulder. Elena's father glanced at me and gestured for the others to leave the room with him. I was the last person her eyes fell on and when it did, it widened in shock. “Xander,” the sound of my name from her mouth made me raise my

    ~Louisa~ My lips parted, and I let out a scream that got Kayla running into my room. My door burst open, and I clenched unto Kayla, who rushed to me. “Wolf, wolf!” I exclaimed, pointing at the spot I found it earlier but to my surprise, there was nothing there. Was the wolf gone, or was I hallucinating? “There is nothing there,” Lisa’s annoying voice spoke up. “Tell me what happened, honey, calm down,” Kayla muttered, rubbing my back soothingly. I took in a deep breath and started my explanation. “I saw a wolf, a huge black wolf, standing right there,” I pointed at the spot again. Lisa chuckled in disbelief. I narrowed my eyes at her and faced Kayla. “You need to believe me, Kay, it was standing right there, staring at me with golden eyes. It must have run into the woods when I screamed, I saw it!” I screamed out. My heart sank when I saw the look on Kayla’s face. She doesn’t believe me too, she thought I was making it all up. “I’m not making it up,” I whispered

    ~Louisa~ The shrill ringtone of my phone got me groaning as I forcefully snapped my eyes open and reached out for my phone, which had been ringing for half an hour. I gasped out loudly as my mom’s name flashed across the screen. “Hello, mummy,” I muttered, sitting up on the bed. “What took you so long to answer your phone, huh? I’ve been calling for hours; I thought something bad had happened to my sweet baby. You got us all so worried that I thought I would die of heartache. Isn’t the place nice? Do you want to switch—” “Mom, I’m fine!” I snapped, making her stop her endless talk. I heard her sigh in relief. “Why didn’t you pick up your calls? We called for hours.” “I was asleep, and besides, it’s not even up to an hour since I fell asleep,” I replied, narrowing my eyes at the exaggeration she was making. “Whatever, whatever, tell me how that place is, hmm? Do you like it?” “Well…” This is my chance to get away from the weird surroundings that no one loves to come

    ~Louisa~ I pushed Jason away and when I spun around, the stranger was gone. I faced Jason, filled with anger. “Are you crazy?” “Luna—” “I don’t like you!” My outburst made Kayla cringe back in shock. Jason’s lips parted and slammed together. I sighed out, trying to calm down after what he had done. “I’m sorry, Jason, I understand how you feel about me, but I don’t feel the same way for you,” I confessed. Kayla walked up to us and tried to talk me out of what I was saying but I shooed her out, standing on my words. “I don’t love you, Jason. You should find someone who does.” My heart shrank in guilt as disappointment and pain laced across his face. “Thank you for telling me the truth, Louisa,” he replied and walked away, not sparing a glance. Though I was filled with guilt for hurting him I was glad that I told him the truth before his feelings got deeper. I felt like a burden had been taken out of my heart. A hard slam on my head brought me bac

    ~Louisa~ “Brandon?” I scoffed and turned to take another path but he drew me back, clenching unto my arm. “Hey, let me go!” I yelled. “I have missed you, Luna; let’s get back together again; I promise to be a good boy,” he said, mischief twinkling in his dark eyes. I scowled at him, certain that there was no single ounce of repentance in him. When he didn’t relent to my warnings, I splashed the brandy on his face. The liquid got into his eyes and stung him greatly, forcing him to release me. “You scumbag, don’t you dare show up in front of me again,” I snapped at him and sent my feet into his groin. He cursed loudly and dropped to the ground, his face wrinkling in pain. “That’s for showing your disgusting face in front of me,” I muttered and blessed him with an eye-rolling slap, making him spit out blood. “And that’s for saying shit.” I grabbed a bottle of liquor and cups and went down to the place I had left Nat. As expected, she was waiting patiently for me. “

    ~Xander~ I stood by the window, watching the cars that drove in and out of the large gate of the castle. “Dear,” Mother’s voice piped behind me, and I shifted my attention away from the bustling activities below the castle. “Are you still drinking?” Mom asked and I glanced at the bottle of liquor on the table. “You don’t have to worry about me, Mother; I am fine,” I muttered, cupping her cheeks. She sighed and rubbed my hairy arm. “The elders are waiting for you in the throne room. It’s been eight years, and you’re yet to find a Luna for the people. Besides, we need an heir, too. Everyone is worried,” Mother muttered, and the smile on my face disappeared. I narrowed my eyes and pulled my wardrobe open then picked out a shirt. “I will wait for Elena to return.” Mother sighed at the words she had been hearing for the past eight years. “No one survives in that water, you said it yourself. She must be dead, she—” “I am leaving for the meeting,” I cut her off, slipping on the sh

    ~Louisa~ “One, two, three, go!” We chorused and poured the shots of liquor down our throats. “Oh shit! This burns,” Kayla muttered in a croaky voice. “I’ve got lots of projects this week,” Philo chipped, popping on a bubble gum. “And here you are drinking,” I chuckled. “Come on guys, what’s the motto!” Natasha snapped and we poured another shot and raised it over our head before screaming our absurd motto. “Drink now, study later!” We poured down the shot and slammed the tumblers on the table, coughing and breathing hard in laughter. “We should come here tomorrow, don’t you girls think so?” Natasha said and they all nodded their head in approval. “What about you, Luna?” Natasha asked, their eyes fixed on me. “Me?” I stammered and shook my head, backing out of the plan. “I’ve got work to do.” “Work?” Philo muttered, twitching her lips in disgust. “Community service. An architect student will never understand,” I replied, narrowing my eyes at her. They all bur

    ~Xander~“We searched the entire kingdom, Alpha. She is nowhere to be found,” Philip’s voice spoke up behind me.I smashed the vase I was admiring on the wall and spun around with eyes reddened in anger.Philip flinched back on seeing my face.“You searched the entire wolf kingdom?” I scoffed and Philip nodded.“Nathan must have been smart enough to take her away from the wolf lands,” Philip muttered a reply, rubbing his clammy hands against each other.“She hasn’t been found yet?” My mother asked from the doorway.The silence she received made her break into tears.She entered the study room and walked up to me then gripped my collar as she seethed angrily.“You have to find her, Alpha, you must find her!”I shut my eyes, breathing in deeply.All these things are happening because of me. If only I had woken up earlier, Nathan wouldn’t have snatched her out of my grip.How am I going to find her?The beast no longer lives in me, I can no longer track her location using the
