~Alpha King Zeeb~

“I belong to no one,” Maya said, her eyes darkening as the words slipped from her lips.

Those words stirred something possessive within me. How could she reject me? The truth, and no matter how much she denied it, was inevitable. She was mine, as decreed by the Moon Goddess.

“We are fated,” I reminded her with certainty. I wanted her to know that no matter how far we drifted, no matter the distance she tried to put between us, we were destined to be together.

I noticed how the shivers ran through her at my words, the way she stilled. She felt it too.

The pull, the bond. She knew we were second-chance mates but refused to acknowledge it.

She excused herself, and as I fought hard to keep my emotions in check, my chest tightened watching her walk away. Every instinct screamed for me to claim her right then, right there—make her mine in front of my subjects, not just as my Luna, but as the woman I craved.

But I knew that Maya would be dif

    ~Alpha King Zeeb~ I watched Logan’s back, with my wolf straining against my control, triggered by his words. What did he mean by “watch her back”? What was he planning? My wolf snarled possessively, “Mine!” His primal instinct surged, forcing my eyes to flicker between their natural state and the feral glow of my wolf’s. Logan stood near the door, from what I could make from my vision, but his ears stood erect. My own picked on the sound as he growled lowly, tension radiating off him. Before I could react, his restraint snapped, his wolf taking control over him. It had been so long since I had seen him like this. His eyes turned blood-red as he shifted, claws extending too fast for me to dodge. His strike landed on me, sharp talons ripping into my arm, hot blood seeping from the wound. He looked lethal—almost poisonous—with nothing but vengeance burning in his stormy gaze. He bared his fangs and lunged at me again, but this time I managed to dodge, drawing on my wolf’s st

  • Revenge Of The Forgotten Luna   33.Controlling my wants

    ~Alpha King Zeeb~ Do I want this? I questioned myself, but before I could react, Aurora let herself in, slowly discarding the fabric that clung to her body. I stood frozen. My mind was a raging storm, battling between logic and the primal ache flowing through me. I was sexually frustrated to the point of pain. I needed a release badly. But the moment her taut nipples brushed against my chest and she whispered against my ear, “Just this once, King. Savor me. Unravel. I’m yours to command, just say it, say what you want and it is yours.” the logical part of me fled out the window. A guttural grunt escaped me as I threw Aurora onto the bed, my vision clouded by desire. In this moment, I was selfish, thinking only about myself, consumed by the need to drown in ecstasy. My hands roamed her body, my fingers twisting her hardened peaks. Her moans fueled the fire within me, making me tug at her buds even harder. “Yes, King… just like that, I love it.” she purred, her hand sliding

    ~Alpha King Zeeb~ I stormed back into the house, my frustration boiling over. The weight of restlessness settled on my chest as I collapsed onto the couch, gripping my hands together tightly. Each passing second felt like an eternity. I was waiting—waiting for Aurora to come in. I had to confront her. What was she thinking, entertaining Logan? Didn’t she understand the threat he posed to this pack? Suddenly, I felt a presence and turned to see Heather standing there, her eyes red and droopy, clearly still half-asleep. She rubbed her eyes, slowly walking toward me. “What’s wrong, Zeeb?” she asked, glancing wearily around the room, confusion clouding her expression. “Why aren’t you in bed? Can’t sleep?” She studied my face, then her eyes widened with concern. “What the—Are you okay? What happened to your hands?” She moved closer, her gaze fixed on the injury. “Are you in danger?

    ~Alpha King Zeeb~I clenched my fists, barely restraining myself from saying something I might regret. Heather’s sharp voice cut through the tension as soon as Logan walked out of the room.“What the hell was that, Aurora?” she demanded.Aurora stood there, an unapologetic smirk plastered on her face. My blood boiled, and I could no longer stand her.Aurora,” I boomed, my voice echoing off the walls. “Pack your bags this minute, you are leaving tomorrow morning. Do you understand the gravity of your actions? You dare drag the King’s name through the dirt and then stand there, giggling like a fool?”I could feel Zeric trying to surface, to gain control and put Aurora in her place. My claws extended involuntarily, and my head twitched as I struggled to keep him at bay. The harder I tried to suppress him, the more feral he became.“Zeric, please, not now,” Heather began, trying to comfort Zeric, but he wasn’t having any of it. He growled, agitated, my eyes flick

    ~Alpha King Zeeb~ I approached Maya slowly, seating myself right in front of her. Zeric purred uncontrollably with excitement as soon as I touched her hand. Her scent wafted through the air, nearly knocking me off my feet. The earlier tension I had been holding on to seemed to evaporate. “I offended you last night, didn’t I?” I asked softly, bracing myself for her reaction. I expected her to pull her hands away, but to my surprise, she didn’t. She merely avoided my gaze. Her silence was louder than any words, and I realized she wasn’t angry at me—she was disappointed. Her disappointment cut deeper than I anticipated. Anger, I could handle. If she had cursed at me or yelled, it wouldn’t have hurt as much as the way she looked at me now. I reached for her cheek, brushing my fingers gently against her skin. She leaned into my touch slightly, and I forced her eyes to meet mine. For a moment, I just wanted her to look at me—truly look at me.

    ~Ivory~“Luna Maya?” Professor Talisman’s voice cut through my thoughts, pulling me out of my daze. His tone held genuine concern. “Is everything alright?”Clearing my throat, I gave a shaky laugh, glancing at her once more. “Uh, yeah. Sure. Everything’s fine.”“Nice to meet you, Luna Maya,” Mrs Nora said, bowing slightly and extending her hand for a shake. Her smile…it was hauntingly familiar—almost like mine.I took her hand, my own trembling slightly, and exchanged pleasantries. “I hope you have a memorable experience here,” she added warmly before stepping aside.As Professor Talisman continued speaking about the upcoming assessment and the headquarter’s policies, my mind drifted far away. Mrs. Nora. Could it be that she is…..? No, it can’t be. My mother was declared dead. This couldn’t be her. But the resemblance was uncanny, it almost made my head hurt. I had to find out who this woman was, or whether she was somehow connected to my mother.The Kin

       ~Alpha King Zeeb~With a contented smile, I turned to Maya, whose face was flushed crimson. Her eyes gleamed as she met my gaze. This was a new beginning for us, a significant turning point.Maya’s willingness to be intimate with me confirmed what I longed to know: she desired me as much as I desired her.Zerric howled with satisfaction, urging me to seize the moment and mark her fully. But then, a familiar vision flashed before my eyes, the same one that had haunted me in the past. The sense of déjà vu was overwhelming, the familiarity... Could it be Maya?Was she the same woman I’d seen in my visions, running, desperate for rescue? The same woman crying out in anguish?I looked at her. Her face had paled, her irises wide with a look of utter disorientation, as if she were lost in a trance. “Maya?” I called, but she didn’t respond, lost in her own subconscious world.“Maya!” I said, my voice louder this time, snapping her back to reality.

    ~Ivory~ I stirred, blinking against the encroaching light. I turned to find myself nestled in the King’s arms. He was already awake. Offering a sweet smile, he pulled me into a deep kiss. “You are angelic,” he murmured. “Even upon waking, you are beautiful.” I blushed at his compliment, sinking further into his chest and inhaling his sweet scent. I don't think I could ever get over how much my wolf and I wolf it. He pressed me closer. “I can’t function without you by my side, Maya,” he confessed. I was at a loss for words, unable to formulate a fitting reply. I hummed in response, knowing that if I looked at him, my eyes would betray my unspoken feelings. The truth was, I was equally attached to the King. I longed to know everything about him: his daily activities, his companions, his loves, his fears, his secrets, his burdens—everything. I wanted him to share it all with me. I knew this might seem hypocritical, especially as I was keeping secrets from him. I dreaded the day

  • Revenge Of The Forgotten Luna   73. The one with the gift

    ~Ivory~"We've heard so much about you. We're so glad to finally meet the famous Maya in person." A regal couple, whom Dimitris introduced as the Alpha and Luna of moonpack, extended their hands for a handshake, which I gladly took, accepting their greetings."Thank you very much for your kind words," I replied, still feeling awkward to be put under the spot. The Luna then proceeded to gush about my beauty."Everyone spoke of your beauty, but seeing you in person surpasses all expectations. You are indeed a catch." I gave a nervous chuckle as she continued, remarking on my pale skin and we fell into an easy conversation, the tension I felt earlier long forgotten. There was something about them that I found comforting. Another couple approached. I recognized the man from the assessment as a board member. Though we exchanged pleasantries, I sensed a subtle hostility in the way their eyes burned, the scrutiny, and the way they exchanged knowing glances between themselves, but I couldn't

    ~Ivory~I leaned into Zeeb’s touch. For a moment, I almost lost myself in his arms, everything fading into a blur around us—and that was what scared me. I was scared of losing myself yet again. I wanted to open up, to tell him about Mrs Nora and the visions I got, but I didn't know how. I didn't know where to start. So instead, I bottled it all up. “Please leave before anyone sees you here.” Instead, I pushed him away, afraid of confronting whatever this was. No matter the bridges I created between us, Zeeb always found a way to fill in the gaps.He was reluctant at first. I knew he wanted to oppose me, to challenge me, to say he didn’t care about being seen. It was right there, at the tip of his tongue, but he sighed, his shoulders slumping briefly before he nodded and placed a lingering kiss on my forehead.I watched him walk away. My wolf snarled at the back of my mind, crossed with me for ruining the moment with her wolf, but I couldn’t afford to entertain her shenanigans. Instea

    ~Alpha King Zeeb~ “So…” I trailed off, clearing my throat to gain Father’s attention. His normally hard features softened slightly, and I knew this was the perfect moment to finalize the discussion. No matter how difficult he was trying to be, I reminded myself that I was doing this for Heather. “About the mating ceremony…” His shoulders tensed instantly, a clear sign that this was a sore topic for him. He shook his head in disapproval before I could even finish. “We’ve been over this,” he said in a low, firm voice. This time, he fully turned toward me, his gaze sharp. “As far as I am concerned, no lineage of mine will be tied to bad blood, soiling our perfect generation. Derrick and Heather happening is out of the question, and that is final.” I clenched my fists, swallowing the fury bubbling inside me. Once again, Father was doing the same thing—dictating our lives under the guise of protection. I knew he had our best interests at heart, but his love came at a cost. I could

    ~Alpha King Zeeb~“Look who we have here.” Father’s voice carried the same quiet authority it always did, though his eyes never left the checkers board in front of him. He cleared his throat, tapping a red piece absentmindedly. “If it isn’t the almighty King himself.” He added, mumbling under him breath. I playfully rolled my eyes and exhaled, pulling my hands from my pockets. “Good day to you too, Father,” I said in a monotone voice, settling into the seat across from him.A ghost of a smirk played on his lips before disappearing just as quickly. Without looking up, he nudged a piece forward. “Your turn.”I rolled my sleeves up to my elbows, already recognizing the challenge in his voice. He was being his usual self—dictating the pace before I even agreed to play.He’d already decided we were playing before I even sat down.“I don’t recall agreeing to a game.” I grazed a piece, considering my next move. “…You always take the center first.” I completed, moving the pieces.

    ~Ivory~ What in the world is going on? I swallowed down my saliva hard, confusion twisting in my gut as I watched Mrs. Nora unravel completely before my eyes. “Nooo!!” she screamed loudly this time, her voice hoarse from sheer anguish, she pulled and tugged at her hair with frantic desperation, one which was unsettling. Her wide, unblinking eyes shimmered with terror as she twitched. “Bunch of liars… they are all a bunch of liars!” Her sudden outburst sent a shiver through me. Her wild gaze darted around the room as if looking for an escape before snapping to mine. For a moment, I swore she was looking right into my soul, searching for something, as if I were a piece of a puzzle she had long been trying to fit together. Something in the way she looked at me—like she knew me, as if she was seeing something beyond my flesh and bone. It sent ice through my veins. It was something more than just recognition. Almost like…. desperation, as if she were trying to reach me, to pull me into

    ~Ivory~The cold air slapped me in the face, causing me to stir sluggishly. I lay half awake, body sprawled on the giant bed as my hands searched frantically for the soft, furred blanket.It was morning already, and my body felt held back by the remnants of sleep. I longed to crawl right back into my blanket, but I had to rise when I couldn’t get hold of it. I yawned lazily as I sat upright, trying to make sense of the environment I woke up in.As I scanned the room, my eyes landed on the spectacular antler chandelier. It was then that I realized I was still at the reserved home.Gradually, I recalled events of the night, and a growl escaped my throat. Zeeb left like a beaten cat after I pushed him away. Sad about that? I honestly wasn’t sure how I felt. I got down from the bed and stretched my arms, trying to shake off the lingering fatigue from sleep. That’s when I heard the thrashing from afar. It sounded like glass on hard metal. My heart raced. I rubbed my eyes vigorously as if

    ~Alpha King Zeeb~I watched her retreat, her scent lingering in my olfactory tracts. Maya… I couldn’t get her off my mind. She was becoming the calm to my storm, someone whose constant presence I never seemed to get tired of. She clicked the door closed, leaving me with the absurd silence in the bathroom. Her footsteps faded away, and soon, I sensed her hurried movement in the room. I let out a soft huff, walked over to the Italian tub meant solely for a relaxing soak, and slid into it gently. I pressed the automatic faucet, setting it to relaxation mode, and let the gentle trickle of water wash over me.My mind wandered back to why my mom had come to see Maya. I presumed it was because of the earlier scene in the dining room; she might be trying to clear the air or make Maya feel more welcome. I sighed. Mom would always be Mom. My gaze drifted to the faucet, fascinated by the mechanism of water flow. I watched as the water trickled down in creative whirls, the therapeutic ointment

    ~Ivory~Her question hung in the air, met by my silence. I had a lot of things going on in my mind, and her intentions were at the forefront.She turned her gaze to me, her eyes boring into mine without a blink. “I want to know how much you care about him,” she said, “because it's obvious he does care about you too. Alpha Zeeb would never choose a woman he has no interest in as a temporary Luna.” It was sort of frustrating that I couldn't read her mind. If she were like one of those betrayers from my past, then she had met her match. Trying my best to keep my emotions in check, I let out a small smile. “He’s the king… and everyone should care about the king. I care about him, of course, as the almighty King Zeeb. As the temporary Luna, I care.” I licked my lips with the tip of my tongue and shifted slightly on the bed, trying to appear nonchalant.“Gosh. Don’t sell me that crap,” she said, waving her hand dismissively as she walked back to the handcrafted sofa in the center of the r

    ~Ivory~My wolf paced frantically in my mind, threatening to break free and pull back Zeeb’s mom. But I knew I couldn't let it out. Muscles tensing, I struggled to keep it in check.I strained my ears, trying to hear what she had heard. My senses went on high alert as I picked up the sound of Zeeb’s movement instantly. This was definitely the same sound his mother had heard, although it sounded so faint and distant. But what the hell was he doing? He promised he would be still.“Did you hear that?” she whispered again, tilting her head slightly.A crawling sensation crept up my spine, making me swallow hard as my thoughts roamed for possible answers.As my gaze lingered on her, I noticed her brows raise sharply, her eyes sparkling with curiosity. My eyes drifted to her hands, and I could see her fingers twitching restlessly by her sides. I wondered whether this had to do with the scent of her son that she caught earlier. I thought, perhaps, she was guessing he was somewhere around. I
