Rex’s POV

I managed to get Joan to sleep by 2am. And for the rest of the night I lay awake in bed, tossing and turning in bed. The night went by at a snail’s pace. I couldn’t wait till dawn to catch that mole in my pack. And when I do, I will show no mercy. I grounded my teeth on each as an image of a helpless Joan crossed my head.

I should never have left her alone and unguarded. By the time I exhausted all plans to catch the snitch in my pack, sleep came around and stole me away, like a thief.

I flung my eyes open immediately I heard a noise.

“Who’s there?” I thundered.

“Your highness, it’s me” I rolled my eyes. Albert the royal cloth dresser.

“Why are you up so early?” I rose from the bed and walked into the bathroom.

“It’s going to be a busy day” he showed me a set of clothes, I knew that belonged to my mother.

“Albert tell the elders of the pack, to gather in the cell up the hill “and the little man scurried away. I busied myself with getting ready for the day. Ten I put a call

    Joan’s POVI walked slowly to the Alpha’s Quarters. I didn’t expect to be made a personal maid. I took in a deep breath as I stopped in front of the door to his room. “Get it together Joan, just express your gratitude and get out of there” I muttered. I knocked on the door and waited. Then came silence. I knocked again. This time louder than the last time. I waited but no one answered. My nerves and lack of patience was driving me crazy. I jerked the door and it gave way. My eyes widened. It was open all these while? I pushed the door slightly open. Enough for me to peek my head in. I saw nothing. Then slowly but quietly I opened the door.“Your highness?” I called out to him but no reply came. I checked all the rooms but no one was there. Oh better, at least I can work in silence. I began to clean the room. Picking clothes that were lying on the floor and the chair. I turned to dress the bed, I stopped short. No one had been in it. At least that was what I could deduce from this. I l

    Rex’s POVAs a way to unwind, I play soccer with a lot of Alphas and I am the captain of the team in my pack.The crowd’s roar is loud enough to raise the hairs on my back as I score another touchdown. My teammates’ excited cheers cause me to let out a roar of victory. Six goals in three games. That would get anyone feeling like a key player in the team. I turn to the crowd, grinning at the sight of the club flag waved wildly in the air and the cheer that has yet to die down. These moments are ones I live for… the congratulatory claps of hands over my back, our matching grins at the realization that, with every match, we are a step closer to clinching the League title.The loud whistle helps me refocus and prepare myself for kickoff. But as soon as the ball is shot into the air, I break into a sprint, not prepared at all for the sudden collision of a hard body against mine that sends me diving straight onto the fake grass, legs bracing most of the fall, which would explain the sickeni

    Joan’s POV“So your highness ever since then, you haven’t been able to sleep?” I asked and Rex nodded. As I sat there, a lot of ides ran through my mind.“Can I be excused your highness?” “Sure” he answered. And so I walked to my room. I could still remember, some herbs, I saw a healer use on one of the maids. I wanted to try it. I began to pick the leaves. Then when I got to the last one, the soip leaf. It was essential as it completed the herbs.“Layla do you where I can find this?”She squinted at it and smiled. The herb was said to be only in the white oak forest. I talked to one of the maids and she said she had been to and the werewolf/witch in charge, didn’t want her there. She went on to tell me the story why werewolves were not allowed there.Many years ago in the blood moon pack, a witch hacked a werewolf of the blood moon pack to death. The reason for this is not yet known up until this day. Some say the werewolf was engaged to the witch and he cheated on her, so she conj

    Joan's POV:I walked into Rex's room, my heart still heavy with concern. As I entered, his eyes met mine, and a warm smile spread across his face. I couldn't help but smile back, though worry still gnawed at me.In my hands, I held the medicine from the Soap leaves that was supposed to help him sleep. I could see the sudden frown forming on his face as his gaze shifted to the bottle. His voice filled with curiosity, he asked, "what's that you're holding?"I took a deep breath, trying to ease the tension between us. "Don't worry," I reassured him, my voice gentle yet firm. "It's just some medicine to help you get better."He hesitated, his brows furrowing in doubt. "But I don't even know what it is," he protested, his voice tinged with concern."And you didn’t have to"I understood his hesitation, but I knew this was for his own good. "Trust me," I pleaded, my voice filled with sincerity. We went back and forth for a while, our voices carrying the weight of our love and concern for ea

The tantalizing aroma of freshly brewed coffee and warm pastries filled the air, making my stomach growl with anticipation. We settled down at the table, the morning sunlight streaming through the windows, casting a gentle glow on our faces.As we began to eat, Rex's mother, with her radiant smile and a mischievous twinkle in her eyes, started cracking jokes. "Joan, did you hear about the time Rex tried to cook dinner? Let's just say the fire department got involved" she said, her laughter filling the room.I couldn't help but giggle, "Oh wow, is that true? You never mentioned your hidden talent for setting off smoke alarms"Rex rolled his eyes playfully, "Mom, you always have to bring up embarrassing stories. But yeah, I may have had a few cooking mishaps in the past."His mother winked at me, "Oh, you have no idea. I could write a whole book about Rex's kitchen adventures

He asked.I decided to play it cool, teasing him a bit.I said, "Oh, come on, Rex! A gentleman never pries into a lady's secrets. It's classified information!"But Rex, being the persistent Alpha he was, didn't give up easily. He leaned in closer, that charming smile still plastered on his face.He said, "Oh, Joan, you can't leave me hanging like that. You know I can't resist a good secret. Spill the beans"I couldn't resist his charm and those puppy-dog eyes, so I finally gave in. I sighed dramatically and began to share the details of our conversation."Alright, alright, I'll spill the tea. Your mother and I had a heart-to-heart about life, love, and the pursuit of happiness" I said, leaving the important part out.He frowned and I almost laughed."That’s it?" He asked and I nodded.

She was right about my relationship with Rex, We need to be certain we want to do this before getting married. I suddenly heard a knock on the door. Not expecting someone, I was quite doubtful it was truly a knock. The knock came again and I was forced to get up. I walked to the door and opened it slowly. Standing on the doorstep, was one of the servants. “Why are you here” I asked her. “The imperial Luna Wants your presence at her Quarters mam” She said. I was confused on why Rex's mother would want me to visit her this late. I shut my door and followed the Maid. We soon reached Her quarters. I knocked on the door and was urged in. The interior decoration in the room could easily point out who's room it was, The Scent in the room was quite overwhelming as well. Rex's mother was sitting on a chair and supposedly reading a book she

The old man stared at me for a while before finally nodding in agreement. “Come with me” He said and started walking away. I followed him happily as he led me into the forest. After walking for ten minutes, our destination didn't seem to be getting any closer. I couldn't resist asking the old man how close we were to getting to the herbs. “Do we still have a long way ahead?” I suddenly asked. He stopped and stared at me. The expression on his face was hard to tell if he was angry or happy I asked the question. “We've been walking for almost ten minutes. I'm getting tired sir..” I mumbled. “ I am way older than you and I'm not even complaining silly. Quit talking and follow me. I'm taking you to my farm” He said and continued walking. I followed him and we continued walking. After what seemed like an eternity, we finally
