The sun had risen. I stood on the balcony to enjoy the warm sunlight. My gaze was fixed below, watching hundreds of warriors who were preparing to do morning exercises in the front yard of the warrior camp.With a quick movement, I jumped from the balcony and landed in a crouching position with one hand on the ground. Then I walked out of the house.The warrior camp was next to my house. A two-meter-high boundary wall surrounded the warrior camp, and all along the top of the wall were twenty-centimeter-high sharp iron bars with no gaps, preventing intruders from entering the place.I joined the hundreds of warriors to run around the pack. I ran at the very back.I routinely run in the morning. My body would hurt if I didn't do it.Usually, Duncan, Elijah, or Franky will join me in running. I had no idea if they were late or if they were doing other sports.I saw the pack members who were already busy with their work. They bowed to me when they realized I was looking at them, and some
Auretta’s POVI stood next to the glass door leading to the pool with my gaze fixed on the chair.I remembered Alpha Andrew, who emotionally accused me of betraying him, but my heart was not broken; what I felt now was burning anger.I took a deep breath before taking a step forward.I carried Alaric, who had just drunk milk, to sit with me by the pool. I put him on my lap.Honestly, I didn’t expect Alpha Andrew to ask me to bring Alaric to this place. He remembered my habit of bringing Alaric to sunbathe.The fall wind was cool. I put a gray jacket on Alaric. Although the werewolf's body temperature was hot and we wouldn't get sick from the cold, that wasn't the case for babies.Alaric stared at me deeply as if he wanted to tell me something. I swear his gaze was the same as when he looked at me before.I was relieved if Alaric recognized me as his mother; perhaps he remembered my body temperature because my face, eyes, and hair were so different from my old self. I even lost a few p
“It seems that Alpha will bring thousands of his warrior troops to attack the enemy pack.”"I think so too. Alpha attacks the enemy every month except during the summer, but Alpha will not attack it if it is not very important or in an emergency."I listened to the two omegas who were talking about their Alpha. We were in the bathroom.I had just finished taking a shower and was wearing my nanny uniform.I had no idea what the Alpha rogue assassin did to make the nanny academy school willing to issue a certificate stating that I was their student who graduated last year and had worked for a year in a rich man's house in the Black Sea Pack.The Alpha rogue assassin created a fake identity, stating that I came from the River Cube Pack. I was an orphan and grew up in an orphanage. I then decided to go to school at the nanny academy located on the border of the River Pack Clan and the Mountain Pack Clan.I shuddered in horror if, one day, Alpha Andrew found out all the documents about me
Andrew’s POVThe war ended an hour ago. I had swapped bodies with my wolf. Thousands of my warriors had returned to the pack, and only ten warriors were left to guard me.Usually, I would have returned to the pack immediately, but I didn’t that day; I accepted Alpha Lucas’ invitation to chat in his office. He gave me a bottle of wine and a glass with a big smile.We sat across from each other on the couch. His smile was so annoying. I wanted to strangle him.‘I regret not being able to kill his wolf, but yeah, at least he was badly injured,’ my wolf said proudly.Alpha Lucas’ wolf was indeed injured, and when they swapped bodies, some of the wounds were still on Alpha Lucas’ body, making him wince and complain about his body regeneration, which was working slowly.Alpha Lucas used to be a Beta. Even though he had become an Alpha, his body regeneration and strength did not increase. The Moon Goddess seemed only to allow him to hold the Alpha title. He knew that he would never be able
The beautiful sky and the chirping of birds that appeared perched on my house's roof served as the morning background.I had finished my morning exercise and breakfast. I saw Rebecca carrying Alaric through the dining room to the pool. I was interested to see them.Two minutes after Tabitha left me because she had an appointment with her friends to spend the whole day together, I strengthened my determination to stand at the glass door to the pool.I didn't want to make Rebecca misunderstand. I wasn't watching her. I just wanted to see Alaric, who was very calm while he was with his nanny. They had only been together for five days, but they looked like they had known each other for a long time.Alaric’s calm demeanor reminded me of my late ex-mate. Alaric would only cry when he was thirsty.I smiled faintly as I remembered my late ex- mate’s annoyed face every time I made Alaric cry. I could never hold him properly, and he would always cry every time I wanted to keep him.“My annoying
Auretta’s POVThe growls and howls of the warrior wolves were clearly heard in my ears.Alaric was used to the terrifying sounds because he had slept in this room since birth.Every Alpha’s house must be next to the warrior camp. That wasn’t actually a rule that all packs had to obey. I didn't know who first had the idea.I think an Alpha’s house should be next to the warrior camp, making it easier for the Alphas to coordinate the warriors.I’ve never heard of an Alpha’s house far from the warrior camp. My pack, which had a small territory, built a home for the alpha next to the warrior camp.I took a deep breath. I missed my pack. I couldn’t wait to meet Beta Caleb.How could I get out of this house to meet him?The Alpha rogue assassin was right. I should have refused to sleep in Alaric's room. At that time, I was so happy to sleep with him, but I didn't think it would hinder my movements.Look now, I was so dizzy thinking about how to leave this room at night.I glanced at the CCTV
What did Alpha Andrew really want? I was sure he regretted not rejecting me when we first met.He and his tens of thousands of warriors could destroy my pack then. They could kill everyone. My wolf wasn't even sure she could win against him.Why did he accept me then if he loved his cousin so much? They still love each other even now. I was never in his heart.I started to believe my wolf's opinion. Alpha Andrew accepted me then because he thought he could control my pack, but in reality, I refused to hand over my pack under his leadership.Then Alpha Andrew devised a scheme to destroy me because I had gotten in his way. He made the incorrect accusation. Then, he pushed Warrior Johan to carry out his plan.The proof was that he did not punish Warrior Johan severely, but he killed me by paying the rogue assassins.I kept thinking about the conspiracy theory created by my wolf, and over time, I thought it made sense.If Alpha Andrew was really the mastermind behind the fake news, he was
Andrew’s POV"Mark my words." Beta Caleb glared at me, his hands clenched, his cheeks flushed, and his jaw clenched. His breath was ragged from the turmoil in his chest.“You can get my elders to accept you as their leader until Alaric is ready to become Alpha, but you will never be able to use my warrior army to help you achieve your goal of exterminating your enemies!” Beta Caleb said firmly. There was no fear of me in his eyes.“The windows and warriors are on my side, and they will not betray me.” Beta Caleb said arrogantly. “You rejected our Alpha and caused our Alpha to die. How can we trust you even though you are the father of our future Alpha?”His words were like a sharp iron ball hitting my body until my heart ached so much. I had to hold onto the edge of the table to stay standing.“No one trusts you in my pack.” Beta Caleb smiled proudly. “The elders will be unable to make us forgive you or accept you as our interim leader.” He shook his head.“I thank you for sending ten
I was so happy that morning, but my face couldn't show what I was feeling.Although there were no surveillance cameras in the playroom, I had to be careful, they might have put other devices to watch me in places I couldn't reach."Hi, good afternoon, future Alpha. I'm so glad to see you again. Did you forget about me? We met at the Mountain Volcano Pack a week ago." Beta Caleb said softly and smiled widely.Alaric looked at him with knitted together as if he was searching his mind for Beta Caleb. I smiled, not knowing if Alaric could think yet."Uh, oh," Alaric shouted with his legs moving quickly, a smile on his face, and his eyes sparkling."I'm so glad you remember me." Beta Caleb touched his chest,, and his eyes filled with tears. He often wanted to cry when he was with Alaric.“I usually visit you once every two weeks, but the pack members are pushing me to see you soon.” Beta Caleb shook his head and showed a dizzy face.“They believe Rebecca; they just want me to make sure you
Auretta’s POVI rushed to my room after I took a shower, avoiding the omegas because I only wanted to be close to Omega Maya.Although I got a lot of information about this pack from the omegas. Blame them for gossiping loudly.Alaric was sleeping after drinking milk. He woke up at 4 am and went to bed at 7 am. As he got older, Alaric slept less and less. Alaric liked to open his eyes now.I looked at my reflection in the mirror and stroked my stomach. My stomach was still bloated. If I didn’t wear a belly wrap, people would glance at my stomach in surprise.While Alaric was napping, an hour after lunch, I practiced yoga for half an hour every day to reduce my tummy fat. I watched a yoga video on the internet after being recommended by the female rogue assassin who injured my entire body.My wolf and I were surprised when we learned that rogue assassins get married and have children. They marry fellow group members or regular rogues. It seems that I was the only one who accidentally
I focused on the dry brown and orange leaves scattered beneath the trees. Some would fly away, burying the wolf warriors who had attacked them.Fall was still in full swing.Winter was approaching in less than three weeks.I never hated the seasons, but just this once, I wished winter would be pushed back a week.“We haven’t attacked all of our enemies yet,” I said, my jaw clenched in frustration.“There’s nothing we can do,” Beta Duncan said. “We have to postpone the war because you’re in a condition that doesn’t allow you to switch bodies with your wolf.”“No matter how strong we are, no matter how fast our body regeneration heals us, we will still be defeated when faced with poison.” Beta Duncan said wisely as he glanced at me with concern. “Thank the Gray Sea Pack for creating various antidotes.”I held back my hand from hitting Beta Duncan’s head.“I will never thank the Gray Sea Pack. They have created dozens of poisons.”“Don’t forget that one of their poisons has wiped out ten
Andrew’s POVDamn it!I slammed the table in annoyance.That day, my wolf was supposed to bring thousands of our warriors to attack the River Oval Pack, but the poisoned bullets made me cancel our plan.I have to wait until tomorrow to find out if the antidote works to expel the poison in my body.If I don’t recover, I will have to meet Alpha Delrico again. My wolf should be the one fighting his wolf!I really hope that the day after tomorrow I will recover. I will be so embarrassed to Alpha Delrico if I meet him again in a weak state.“I’m going to find that bastard. I’m going to make him regret shooting me, and I’m going to make sure he tells me who paid for it.”I growled.I couldn’t concentrate on my work. Anger had been burning in me since I woke up.“Calm down, Alpha,” Beta said. He sat across from me as he went through the documents on the table, helping me sort out the ones I needed to read and handle right away. “Your anger is making me uncomfortable.”“Not only did that guy
“It’s bath time,” I said to Alaric cheerfully.I took Alaric out of the crib. He had just finished his milk. Alaric sucked his thumb; he didn’t really like pacifiers.I bathed Alaric in the baby bath with warm water. Alaric smiled and babbled in his baby language. I wanted so badly to kiss his chubby cheeks.There was no one and no surveillance cameras in the room. But still, I didn't dare to hug Alaric tightly or kiss his cheek.I was afraid of myself forgetting my revenge mission.“You love baths,” I commented on Alaric’s feet playing in the water.I didn’t learn to be a nanny.I cared for Alaric based on the prenatal knowledge I learned when I was six to nine months pregnant.So, sometimes, I doubted myself and wondered if nannies did what I did and if I looked like a nanny.“You’re already handsome and smell good.” I moved Alaric from the baby bath and laid him down on the changing station. Alaric bit the dark gray towel covering him.I brushed his teeth, slathered his face with b
Auretta’s POVI was so happy that I finally got to witness my warrior pack training.The last time I saw them training was six months ago when I was seven months pregnant. Time flew by so fast without me realizing it.However, that day, I witnessed their increasing strength as Rebecca, their future Alpha nanny. Those hundreds of warriors had no idea who I really was.I honestly felt weird hearing Beta Caleb, Gamma Gabriel, and Delta Vanessa still consider me as their Alpha. Yeah, as long as the pack didn’t appoint a new Alpha, the Alpha status would still be held by me.The potion from the Alpha Rogue Assassin was very effective in hiding my scent.The potion would be gone once my wolf took over my body. Luckily, my wolf could control itself well.“They are strong,” Beta Lyra commented as she stared at the hundreds of warrior wolves. “You all are no less strong when compared to wolves from a large pack. You lost because you were few.”Beta Lyra was absolutely right. We couldn't achiev
I monitor the warrior wolves training to fight in the second-largest forest in the pack.The first largest forest in the pack is used as a battlefield.I no longer hide from the public, especially the enemies, that my wolf and I have the ambition to attack all the enemies of our pack.We will mobilize all our warriors to fight.Thousands of warrior troops would join my wolf fighting on the battlefield; 10 percent of them were those who had only been warriors for a year.We didn’t need to doubt the strength of the warrior wolves, whether they were experienced or not in war. Gamma and Delta never make mistakes in judging a wolf who is worthy of the title of warrior.I was not alone in monitoring the strength of the two thousand warrior wolves. I share the task with Beta and the chief warrior. We made sure they were all classified as war participants.In addition to assessing the strength and stamina of their wolves, we also check their health. I would revoke the warrior title of those w
Andrew’s POV“We’ve attacked the River Octagon Pack. Are they going to attack us back or not?” I tilted my head with a raised eyebrow.I leaned back in my office chair, my elbows on the arms of the chair and my chin resting on my palms.I was alone in my workspace. I was enjoying the success of my wolf and thousands of our warrior wolves in attacking one of our pack’s enemies.‘Alpha Eduardo and his wolf rarely counterattack. Their elders forbid them from fighting, but as an Alpha, Alpha Eduardo can fight those elderly men,’ my wolf said.‘But it seems like Alpha Eduardo and his wolf are too lazy to fight. That’s why they rarely attack their pack’s enemies.’ My wolf gave his opinion. He mocked Alpha Eduardo and his cowardly wolf.‘You’re right. Alpha Eduardo only uses the ban to keep himself and his wolf away from the war. Besides, it’s not just the elders of the River Octagon Pack who disagree with the war; all the elders in the packs are strongly against it,’ I said.‘Our elders are
Beta Lyra's tears flowed even after she released her hug from me.Alaric looked at us in confusion. Then Beta Caleb, Gamma Gabriel, and Delta Vanessa played with him again.Alaric smiled as Delta Vanessa put hand puppets on each of her fingers, and one by one, the puppets kissed Alaric's cheeks.I didn't want to show my face to Alaric, worried that Alaric would remember me. How pathetic I was."Stop crying, Beta Lyra." I held her hand.“I apologize. I regret that day I couldn’t defend you.” Beta Lyra looked at me with tears that wouldn’t stop flowing down her cheeks as she tried to speak clearly.“I was so sad when I got back to the pack. I couldn’t find you, and then I got the news from my mate that Alpha had rejected you. I should have been there to defend you!” Beta Lyra wiped the tears on her cheeks with her T-shirt sleeve.“I can’t believe you betrayed Alpha. I know you and Warrior Johan aren’t what Alpha thinks. I know you love Alpha very much.” Beta Lyra expressed everything in
