Rejection Vs Desire Perfect Luna... Broken Luna...
Eutychus' office was starting to get stuffy with all the tension. Darrian had to think fast, one wrong answer and his plan would be thwarted. Lucky for him he had the perfect culprit for his crime. “What are you talking about? What reason would I have to forge your signature?” Darrian answered, hoping his face was expressionless, contrary to the nervousness in his stomach.“Don't play stupid, isn't this your invoice? why would the Pack’s treasury fund- ” Eutychus was getting enraged. It was enough that the day was already ruined and now his beta was getting smart?“ Cas, do you think we are that close that I would have the skill and need to forge your signature? and why would I forge the signature for something as trivial as Pack funds? I am your beta, these are privileges I get automatically.” Darrian replied, thanking the moon deities he had his expressions in check.“I don't remember signing off on this and Dora mentioned there were missing funds.” Eutychus seemed confused, now t
Rejection Vs Desire A Legacy and An Inheritance
Alaric and his council- friends rather- arrived first at the casino. They went straight for the conference room that Ceann had miraculously prepared. Water and other refreshments were set aside and a cushioned chair next to the window but not so far from Alaric’s designated seat was also available, a different set of refreshments next to it. Kieran was in his usual jovial mood as they walked in the large room.“Do you think Darrian will have a fit once he finds out this is our Casino?” He asked, a smile planted on his face. It was like he lived to torment Darrian, seeing as he couldn't just sock him in the face.“He is not the one we should think about, Eutychus will surely have a fit and Alpha Finnian... We’ll just wait and see.” Alaric replied and they took their seats.Sammy arrived a few minutes later with Patrick carrying some folders with them. He was blessed to have a sharp council, if he could put it lightly. These were his friends who had blindly and without question followe
Rejection Vs Desire A Million What If's...
Dianne wasn't sure how to answer Alaric. To out right come out and say they may have stumbled upon a couples quarrel wasn't going to cut it.“ I will fill you in later. I am surprised there wasn't any bloodshed in the conference room.” Dianne deflected, choosing to steer Alaric’s mind away from her and Isadora. She couldn't quite pinpoint it but there was something going on between them. if that was the case...“What do you mean?” Luckily Alaric changed the topic.“The pheromones... our guards were pretty much on the brink of letting loose. even my mom was feeling tense when we drove up to the casino. dont get me started on how this floor reeked of carnage.” Dianne said, exaggerating the words she could, it made Alaric chuckle.“It couldn't have been that bad. As usual, Kierran was ready to rip both Eutychus and Darrian a new one. I regret stopping him but I wasn't in the mood for a brawl. ” Alaric said, sneaking a few bites from the bowl Dianne was eating from, this move however, h
Rejection Vs Desire Echoes...
The last few days had proven hectic for Isadora. They had finally arrived for her official union with Eutychus as his mate and Luna of the Nightfall pack. Just as Finnian had said, the elders had been incharge of everything ceremony related. From the venue set up to security outside. With no other family member but her father, she was with the lovely company of the maids that worked in the Alpha’s residence. She was pampered in all the ways she could think of , almost to the point of getting fed. Her father had gotten her the most exquisite dress and was perhaps the best thing about this whole arrangement. “ I can't believe this day has arrived, my only daughter is about to become a luna. We should thank your mother. ” Mr. Smith had said as he watched his daughter getting help with the dress. “Aren't you supposed to be crying? Won't you miss me? ” Isadora joked. “I should be asking you that, as a Luna, you will be too busy for mere peasants like me.” Her father replied with a blind
Rejection Vs Desire Trespassing...
Alaric shook his head. No matter how right the word would feel on his tongue, he could not speak it—never. So he did the next best thing and focused on his half-brother's face. Rage was far better off than the unmentionable word. He welcomed the anger that brewed in his chest as he watched Eutychus's face light up when they locked eyes with Isadora. He looked happy, proud even. It was at this time that Alaric knew he wasn't angry at his father for kicking him out. Nor was he angry at Eutychus for not standing by him back then. It was jealousy. It should have been him; he was supposed to be the next alpha. She was supposed..."Alpha..." He heard Ceann's worried voice calling his name, and he thanked the Moon Goddess. His thoughts were wandering about. "Pheromones," Ceann added, and Alaric realized his thoughts were not the only things that wandered freely."Oh... sorry. We should leave. I can't stand it here," Alaric said, a poor excuse to head back to his pack and pray his head starts
Rejection Vs Desire Protection and Posession ...
As a fierce growl rippled through the air, a bloody Kierran and an angry Patrick emerged from the shadows, launching themselves right in front of their Luna. Patrick had shifted into his wolf form, and the blood clinging to his fur told a short story. Darrian's men were caught off guard, never expecting such a formidable defence. Kierran locked eyes with Leo, the man wielding another burning torch."You picked the wrong night to trespass," Kierran growled, his voice raw with primal rage. Behind them, Dianne stood fuming. Her rage could almost be tasted."It hasn't been a fortnight since our pack was announced, and here we are warding off strays," Dianne spoke, finally stepping down to address the trespassers. "The paint in the house hasn't even dried yet," Dianne added, looking up at the thin smoke emerging from her room."Enough! Call your hounds off and leave while I'm being nice!" Kierran growled. He was never one to be patient, but the man had a flaming torch. Anything and everyth
Rejection Vs Desire Protection and Possession Pt. 2
Kierran didn't wait for Dianne's whimper of pain to fully escape her lips as she tried to fight off some mutt, not that he would ever allow anyone to harm his Luna. He lunged. Claws extended, he was a whirlwind of fur and fury aimed at the closest attacker, a hulking male with a savage grin. The air cracked with the sound of claws meeting flesh. The grin turned into a howl as Kierran ripped through the man's shoulder, sending him crashing back into the bushes.Leo, arrogance momentarily forgotten, stumbled back, eyes wide with terror. Not at Kierran, but at the monstrous silhouette that filled the doorway. Alaric.To think someone had the balls to attack his home was appalling to Alaric. Even worse, the thought of his unborn child in harm's way was enough to make him see red. How. Dare. YOU!!!” He all but shook with fury, no. He was fury incarnate. Black hair, usually kept in a loose braid, hung wild around his face. Blood-red eyes scanned the scene, taking in Dianne's form and the tw
Rejection Vs Desire Shot glass of tears
Isadora This side of Eutychus always made Isadora feel tingles all over. His firm grip on her waist spread heat all over her body and she couldn't help but release happy and erotic pheromones. If anyone was to ask, this was the best day of her life. She was officially a Luna now and her mate, her man, was publicly claiming her. Letting everyone know she was his. She let him practically drag her away from everyone as she anticipated what she knew would be a hot and heavy night.“Are you jealous?” She couldn't help but push him further. It was like a part of her wanted him to lose control and just take what he wanted from her. “Don't be ridiculous, why would I be jealous of my pack members? Tonight is your first night as Luna of nightfall, you have duties to perform and I need my dick wet. You can have your harem after I am done. ”His words were like a bucket full of water on her hot skin. The excitement she felt was replaced with hurt, and an undertone of frustration and not the sexu

Rejection Vs Desire Fight or Flight...
It truly was the manifestation of rejection's Ire and desire's flame as Nightfall fell under a dark cloud. Darrian's reign of terror had begun to truly manifest. Pack members suspected of treason, harbouring rogues or anything that did not go according to Darrian’s regime, vanished without a trace and were replaced by Darrian's loyalists. Fear and suspicion choked the once vibrant pack. Those who had fallen for his smooth speech of wanting to protect what was theirs, now wondered if perhaps they had made the wrong choice, but they couldn't air out these suspicions, not if they wanted to go missing. Meanwhile, Isadora languished in her gilded cage, for she was nothing more than a caged wolf, waiting for her master to choose her fate. The luxurious room felt like a prison, the bars forged from Darrian's cruelty. Regina, his ever-present shadow, taunted Isadora with tales of Eutychus' "weakness" and the impending glory of Darrian's new era. She had always hated Isadora and given their p
Rejection Vs Desire End or Begining ...
Alaric couldn't take his eyes off the baby in his arms. As soon as his daughter was placed in his arms, he had become a new person, no. The moment he heard her cry, something in him changed. The risks he was willing to take to protect his Pack were nothing compared to the absolution and conviction to protect his daughter. There was literally nothing he couldnt do for her and that thought scared him. He went back to the conversation he had with Kierran and realized that if anyone or anything threatened his little girl, there wasn't anything he wouldn't do to ensure her safety. Nothing at all. “What will you name her?” Dianne whispered, too tired from the whole birth ordeal, for a second there, Alaric was scared she wouldn't be able to pull through. “Asa, that is the first thing that came to my mind when I heard her scream. Pick her second name. ” Alaric said, moving closer to Dianne so she could be closer to their pup. “ Wilde…. Asa Wilde. Because she will be the one to heal us all”
Rejection Vs Desire Birth of the future...
Alaric paced restlessly along the Genesis border, the whimper from a suffering wolf a constant thorn in his side. He focused, pushing his senses further, the fragmented images that returned painting a horrifying picture. Someone was calling out to him. Suddenly, Kierran burst into the clearing, his face pale and etched with worry. "Alpha, we have some news… bad news." Alaric's heart plummeted. His mind raced to Dianne, his mate, and their unborn child. Had something happened to them?"What is it, Kierran?" Alaric's voice was a low growl as he started walking towards his home. “Fuck! ”Kierran took a deep breath. “It's Nightfall, Alpha. Darrian… he's overthrown Eutychus and their Luna … she's been captured.”A wave of anger crashed over Alaric. The ambition that burned within Darrian had always been a threat, but this blatant betrayal transcended Pack politics. It threatened the fragile peace between Genesis and Nightfall, a peace Alaric had strived so hard to maintain.But amidst the
Rejection Vs Desire Sleeping Beauty
Isadora awoke to a suffocating darkness. Panic clawed at her throat as she realized her eyes were bound with a rough cloth. Disoriented and bound to the bed, she tried to piece together the fragmented memories of her day meeting with Genesis Pack Luna. She tried releasing her claws in a half shift, anything that would assist her in setting herself free from the bindings and blindfolds. A sharp laugh sliced through the silence. "Finally awake, Sleeping Beauty?" The voice, laced with venomous amusement, sent a shiver down Isadora's spine.The blindfold muffled her vision, but she could sense someone approaching. "Who's there?" she demanded, her voice trembling slightly."Oh, don't worry, Luna," a voice dripping with sarcasm replied. "It's just Regina, here to welcome you to your new… accommodations as per Alpha Darrian’s request of course." Isadora's breath hitched. Regina, a constant thorn in her side. What did she have to do with this? She felt Regina approach, and seconds later the
Rejection Vs Desire Betrayal in the Pack
Things in Nightfall were changing slowly under everyone's nose rather, people couldn't tell the shift in power within their pack. One night, the pack's enforcers were doing their regular patrols along the pack borders and the next, they were surrounding the Alpha’s residence, no one could tell whether it was for protection or assault. Another group of enforcers surrounded the council hall, with all the important members of the pack in it. “What is the meaning of this, Darrian, care to explain why was- ” an elder, angry and almost red in the face spat but he was pushed back to his chair forcefully. “I don't recall asking you to speak. '' Darrian sneered at the elder as he moved up to the Alpha’s designated seat, taking his time to look at the shocked faces of those in attendance. Once satisfied, he pulled out a wad of papers from his suitcase with the Alpha's seal. He put the items on top of the conference table and yet again let his eyes wander around the room. “Ladies and gentlem
Rejection Vs Desire Power and control...
“Did he admit? ” Dianne asked Alaric when the nightfall Luna had left. “Yes and no. Darrian claims that he did it under Eutychus’ orders. I didn’t believe him. My Half brother may be arrogant but never this stupid. Something is off.” Alaric said he couldn't shake off the daunting feeling he felt when they were in the office with Darrian. He was impressed with how Kieran had managed to keep his emotions in check and hadn't jumped on Darrian as soon as he walked through the Pack borders. “So where do we stand? You know I will support you through whatever you choose.” Dianne said, standing up to stretch a little. “It will depend on how they take my message from today's meeting. This isn't really about the assets my mother left me. It's more of control and power. Eutychus feels threatened, and I am not about to sit and let him think he can walk all over us.” Alaric said. “Oh I just wish they would try us… it's been a minute since I-” Kierran stopped himself from finishing the sentence
Rejection Vs Desire All for you...
Isadora Saying those words out loud felt foreign to her. It's not like she had never thought about them but rather that was all they were supposed to be, meaningless thoughts. And now Darrian, the man at the center of it all, had made her speak those words, giving them life and truth… desire even. She looked away from Darrian’s almost silver eyes and focused back on staring outside the window. The trees were more interesting than this conversation. ‘Why in the blue moon did I call him mate?’ Isadora chastised herself as the car ride proceeded with no response from Darrian. “What if, I could give you - ” Darrian seemed to have found his voice but Isadora couldn't let him finish. Dreams were one thing, but promises?“This is not the time for ‘what ifs’ Darrian. You rejected me and I chose Eutychus. I am your Luna and you serve me as my Beta. We made our choices.” Isadora replied. There was nothing Darrian could give her right now other than his loyalty as her Beta. Darrian did not sa
Rejection Vs Desire Dumb Dreams and Second Chances
Today was one of those days Darrian hated the most. They had a briefing right before lunch and after that he and Eutychus would be heading to the casino for business. He sat in the large conference room and waited for Eutychus to arrive. Isadora always came in later. However, this time it was she that arrived first and took the usual seat, one that was away from both he and Cas. “Afternoon, Dora.” Darrian cleared his throat and said his greetings. “Afternoon. ” she gave her single worded response, Darrian hated it. He wanted to hear her speak, laugh get angry or even release that intoxicating scent. “Are you guys still having your couples fight? Whatever it was about, deal with it quickly, your brooding attitude is suffocating.” Darrian said the only thing that came to his mind, hoping to rile her up and get some kind of reaction from her. “I don't see how that is any of your business. '' she glanced up from her tablet and fixed her gaze on him, just like he had anticipated. “Whe
Rejection Vs Desire Fuck Ups
To say Darrian had fucked up would be an understatement. He may have just started a war between Nightfall and Genesis packs. Alaric’s pack may have been in its infancy stage but the power they held was enough to make him worry. He sprinted back to Nightfall's territory, using a back route that had a stream. He bent down and washed the sweat off his skin and the remainder of the scent blocker he had on. He found his car where he had parked it and drove back to the ceremony. He would use the time to come up with an excuse because he would be getting questions since he had missed a bigger part of the ceremony. He couldn't erase Leo’s petrified look from his mind, the way he had begged for his life and how mercilessly he had been knocked out. There was no telling what the future for Leo was but Darrian knew he would be tied to him. It wouldn't be long before Alaric would seek vengeance and he would. He pulled up at the pack gates and drove straight for the ceremony. He could still hear t
