Rejected By The First, Accepted By The Second

“Your highness, I think we should start returning back to the castle. It's getting late and you know the mating ball is supposed to start once the clock strikes 12.” Said my beta, Koslov. “Supposedly.” I hummed as I walked past the entrance of the woods. Koslov was correct, it was indeed getting late. But I had no reason to leave until I'd caught something – a prey, something to get my mind off the pressing issue of finding a mate, scratch that – a Luna queen.“Supposedly?!” He shrieked. “Your highness, the mating ball is important. I don't want to assume you're beginning to have second thoughts about it again.”“Enough Koslov, you're beginning to sound like my mom.” I glared at him.He looked like he was about to say something, but then he simply shrugged. I heaved a tired sigh as I signaled to him to hold firmly the fire torch while I shifted into my lycan form. It was easier and more interesting to hunt my lycan wolf. The human form was limiting.“Be careful your highness!” Koslov

Hector's life has been nothing short of misery ever since the very day Hiraeth was banished. As each passing day went by, the situation of things for him and his pack worsened. Hector's life became a shadow of itself as he was disappearing into the gloom. He resulted into drinking to stupor and clearly lost consciousness of who he really was as the leader of his pack. Woe to the Halo clan hence their Alpha has no understanding of who he truly is anymore. It seemed like they just kept fading away.Vera tries all she could to make Hector see her in a different light but Hector doesn't want to set his eyes on her. So she kept hovering around him, seeking the perfect time for her to strike.Vera seeks help from Luna Emelda as she was at the brink of giving up because for the past two years she's been trying all to no avail.Luna Emelda seemed to have endured enough. She kept mute all these while thinking Hector would wake up to the reality of his life and the condition of things with hi

Hector opened his eyes, looking around the unfamiliar environment around him. The morning sun rays shone on his face, almost blinding his eyes.Where on earth am I?”“Am I dead?” “Where am I?”He tried to get up but couldn't as his head ached so badly and he had sustained injuries all over, his clothes were completely torn. Making him look like a fugitive. He laid on the ground for some minutes, that's when the thought suddenly struck him.“What about my mother, Luna Emelda? Is she still alive? And if she is, where is she?”He combed the environment with his eyes looking out for Luna Emelda. Just as he was looking through the woods, Luna Emelda came out of the bushes with some leaves in her hands.Seeing Hector sitting up, she ran for joy and hugged him. “You're finally up son, I was scared you weren't going to regain consciousness so I went into the forest to get whatever kind of herbal leaf I can lay my hands on. How are you feeling son?”“Mother, I am fine.”There and then the

“All rise to welcome the Queen!” the guard at the door announced her presence.Everyone at the throne room rose to their feet and made a bow to Hireath the queen.As Hireath enters the throne room her fragrance filled the atmosphere. Like the sweet fragrance of a blooming flower. Her fragrance made the mouths of everyone present watered like the warm aroma of a freshly baked bread.There was something so unique about the queen, Hector just couldn't figure it out. She seemed so familiar. He was just lost glancing at the queen. She really is who people say she is. An epitome of majestic beauty. She was just so familiar. But he had his doubts until Cobalt recognized her after a closer observation. “Hireath…?” He muttered to himself.“It can't be. It just can't be. How on earth did she become the Luna queen of the Lycan pack?”Never had he imagined coming in contact with Hireath ever again. But here she is in flesh and blood . Looking so graceful and angelic. Hireath looked like a godde

“Oh there you are. What's the reason for this sudden morning walk, my love?” Hireath asked Malakai.“I'm so sorry for making you worry about me this early in the morning. I just couldn't sleep so I decided to go clear my head. Pardon my manners, my love, let me formally introduce you to our guest. His name is Hector, Alpha of the Halo clan.”“Hector, meet my charming and adorable wife, queen Hireath of the Lycan pack.” Malakai smiled as he introduced Hireath to Hector.“A pleasure to meet the queen. I'm so grateful for the love and hospitality you all have shown towards my mother and I ever since we got here. We are deeply indebted to the Lycan pack.” Hector stretched his hands to shake Hireath. But she rejected the handshake offer in a very cold way.“Oh don't bother. It's not like we're left with another option other than to help your already dead clan. And please I don't want you and your mother to get unnecessary comfortable during the period of your stay here. I'd love for you
