Joanna's POV: Tears streamed down my face as I thought about Sebastian sleeping with someone else. What more was I expecting? I sighed, trying to blink back my tears but all to no avail.I heard receding footsteps and tye sound of the door opening as the men walked out of the room, leaving me all alone. I knew it was safe to cry despite telling them I didn't know who my mate was. No werewolf would take the story of their mate sleeping with someone else lightly even when they were yet to interact."You'll be fine. I give you the permission to stay in my pack till you are ready to leave. Your baby would not be separated from you even after birth. Welcome to Blue moon pack," His cold breath hit my ear as he whispered into it. My body went stiff momentarily as my eyes widened in shock. I didn't hear him walk out of the room as I was lost in thought.The Blue Moon pack? The number one rival of Red moon pack? The enemy of the man who used me? Wow!! I couldn't help but jump in joy, thank
Unknown POV:Upon listening to what the white haired lady said, Alasdair, Micah and Mark all exchanged glances, their eyes widening in surprise.Of course, they knew whom that voice belonged to but they didn't just expect the lady they had saved to hear it. There had been some hidden secrets in their pack which never got out. Among them all, Alasdair was the most surprised one. As the Alpha of the second largest pack in the country, he also didn't see that coming."Who are you?" The question slipped out of his mouth before he could stop it.The soft gasps of Micah and Mark could be heard but Alasdair paid them no heed as he was more concerned about the white haired lady who caught his attention. Joanna pretended not to hear his question. She seemed to have figured out that she wasn't supposed to hear that voice and now, she was going to be tagged as a weird person once again."Don't worry, it's fine. Take a warm shower and go to sleep. Tomorrow morning, I'll be introducing you to t
Joanna's POV;Morning soon came. It was only when I stepped out of my room did I realize how large and luxurious this house was. I was woken up by a lady whom I made out to be a maid. She assisted me in doing menial jobs in my room and also picking out my clothes for my big introduction to the pack members. As I walked behind Micah, I felt my heart pound furiously in my chest. I was a nervous wreck as I tried to control myself. Earlier this morning, when I was woken up, I noticed a large gap of difference between yesterday's bump in my stomach and this morning's. I put the blame on the delicious foods I ravaged like a ravenous wolf. Well, who could blame me? It had been so long since I got to eat a good meal."Did you have a good sleep last night?" Micah suddenly asked, pulling me out of my thoughts. I didn't know his intention but he had also done nothing wrong not to get an answer from me. It'd be very rude of me to not answer him."Yes I did. Thank you for your hospitality and
Joanna didn't realize they were now standing outside the Alpha's house, as she had come to learn. Standing before them was a large number of people, staring intently at her like a newly bred animal in the zoo. She felt uncomfortable by their stares but there was one thing she could feel among all. They weren't judging her but were mainly surprised at the arrival of a new member in their pack who was moreso pregnant. "Greetings, Alpha!!" They all greeted loudly as soon as they saw Alasdair appear behind her. Joanna's ears hurt due to how loud their voices were. She could slightly feel the ground tremble from their greeting, making her realize how numerous they were. Though, Joanna could barely see them all from where she stood, she could tell that the number of people in Blue moon pack were a tad bit plentier than Red moon's pack. Alasdair only nodded his head in acknowledgement to their greeting, stylishly shrugging off Veronica's hand that was wrapped around his arm. His gaze u
Melissa's words hit a nerve in Joanna's body. Her anger was starting to brew. Before Alasdair could butt in, Joanna spoke up."Why don't you say that to my face?" She asked, her voice laced with venom as she glared at the lady clad in a red gown. As they stood opposite each other, one could see the huge difference between them both. It appeared that Melissa was an inch taller than Joanna, and slightly bigger than her, making her have more advantage of the situation since she only smugly looked down at Joanna. "What? I was only stating the truth. Moreover, who knows what will happen if your baby ends up getting killed in a battle or something. Who would pay the consequence? Tsk! I doubt there'd be any since you don't even know whom the father of your child is. In other words, your child is technically a bastard," Melissa added smugly, enjoying the light giggles and snickering from her friends nearby.Joanna's eyes had already turned red due to anger. Her fists were tightly balled an
"What the hell is wrong with you? How could you do that?" Micah yelled for the nth time, following after Joanna like a plug stuck to her butt. The introduction had been dismissed twenty minutes ago as soon as Joanna had accepted Melissa's challenge. Alasdair, Veronica, Micah and Joanna were currently in Alasdair's exclusive mansion. Joanna was standing before the electric cooker, trying to think of how the heck she was supposed to use it. Even if she had done menial jobs like cooking and washing in the Red moon pack, she had always been told to use firewood to cook for them all despite the fact that they had an electric stove. Joanna vividly remember the first time she tried talking to Sebastian to let her use it, she wasn't able to open her mouth for days as he had hit her on the cheek.Shaking her head to revert such memories, Joanna focused on the cooker before her, seeming like she was about to fight a battle. Micah was currently standing by the counter, trying to talk Jo
"Today, I'll be teaching you defense moves," Alasdair's voice rang out in the forest, slightly far away from the pack. Joanna had been informed to prepare for training to win the battle challenge she had accepted. She was at a disadvantage because she wouldn't be able to change into her wolf form due to being heavily pregnant. This was a great advantage Melissa had over her. Currently, Micah and Alasdair were trying their possible best to explain the details of defense methods to Joanna who looked like she'd fall asleep anytime soon.The pregnant lady was currently leaning on the trunk of a tree, looking as if her soul had left her body. "That's it! I can't take it anymore! What have you only done? Why are you tired? You were only asked to defend and not to attack but you're here looking like you had just fought a battle," Micah hissed in anger while Joanna batted her lashes at him , giving him a small smile."Well...I guess you've done alot," Micah succumbed in a daze, attracted
Seconds later, Micah was on his feet, staring warily around the forest while Alasdair also released a growl of his in warning.Among them all, Joanna caught a whiff of the intruders scent and her eyes widened in pure shock.She immediately pulled the tiny bag she had been holding and brought out a bottle from it.As fast as possible, she drank a sip of it and closed it back before rising to her feet.Just then, she heard the Crunching of dried sticks behind her. Joanna didn't need anyone to tell her that the intruders were now behind her. She saw Alasdair about to change but what bothered her the most was to leave this place. She stared directly into Alasdair's eyes, still standing where she was and whispered, 'Please take me home.'He frowned, still releasing a warning growl to the wolves, expecting them to back off. He could see the look in their eyes. On one hand they were scared of him and on the other hand, they were in need of something. The question was what did they want? He
Rising, Joanna realized she was still in the same position she was in before the dizziness took over. She didn't need to be told that was happening to her was no ordinary thing."Mother this isn't normal....," Joanna whispered to her mother while the latter nodded her head in understanding. " I know sweetheart and I believe the only person with such immense power, able to do this to you is none other than Celine, she who you've been in contact with" Stella explained to Joanna who now had an incredulous look on her face."Waaaa....," Alan's loud cry of pain was enough to snap Joanna out of her thoughts. Balling her fists by her side, she slowly removed herself away from. the group, moving slowly towards the witches."What did you do to me and my son?" She hissed, glaring straight at Celine. "Hm, you know what annoys me the most about you? You act like the superior one, walking like everyone is below you. I hate you," Celine seemed to have lost control as she raised a knife in the air,
"Who's next?" Swinging his sword on his shoulder, Elias smiled. Immediately, the young witches stepped backwards in fear, too scared to put to practice the spell they had been taught. "Cowards!" Helen's mother yelled as she came to stand in front of them. "Give up Joanna and we would let her baby go!" She yelled loudly,staring at Elias straight in the eye. Her thoughts were unknown but just as they all thought, Alan was being used as a bargaining chip."How do you expect us to give her up when her son is nowhere in sight?" Mark hissed, glaring at the witches who looked like a colony of ants. Unhappy with what was said by Mark, Helen's mother glared at him but the young Beta didn't flinch. He couldn't be bothered with the nuisance of a witch and was more bothered about Joanna and his mate. He couldn't see Helen too which further made him on edge but he couldn't show it for fear of alerting the enemies. Slowly, Celine walked out from behind the forest, standing right behind the c
This left Aric with one choice which was to kill every witch he came across as fast as he could.Soon enough, he went unto action.Elias and Stella both noticed Altair who was planning on killing another guard and immediately went to stop him. They both directed the guards to kill the other witches while they fought with Altair who seemed displeased by their actions."Why is no one taking my side?" Altair screamed blindly as he fought with them . He was seconds away from changing to his wolf form and they could see it. "... because you're doing the wrong thing. No one is going to take your side," Stella yelled as she dodged his incoming blow.Her words seemed to further anger Altair as he charged towards her once more, leaving Elias out of it. Midway,he changed into his wolf form while Stella transformed to the creature that once haunted Joanna. Everyone on the battlefield could see Stella change and the moment she did, the witches who were starting to have the upper hand all star
Before the coven of witches arrived, the Red moon pack members all arrived safely, with none of the members missing. They were all ushered into Alasdair's home which already contained the Blue moon pack members. "Joanna, you need to stay in. I promise, we would rescue your son and bring him back to you," Sebastian spoke, finally braving up to speak to her."No, stay out of my way. This is my fight," Joanna hissed while he immediately retreated."No, this is our fight!" Mark yelled as he threw his fist into the air."Fine, just be safe," Sebastian gave up stopping her while Joanna ignored his words.Mark was carried outside, behind the flowers where his body was hidden.This was a big risk they had all taken to ensure he'd get back to normal as soon as they spotted Helen, the one who put him in this condition.Althea who had also been locked in Alasdair's house during the previous battle was allowed to join the fight. No one dared to stop her since they all knew her main aim. Alasda
Upon waking up, Joanna realized she had fallen asleep right in the living room just as Elias had spoken."What was that? Please don't tell me you fell asleep while he was talking?" Aric groaned, trying to restrain his laughter but it was fruitless."Hm, de.. definitely not. I just had something to think of. For how long was I out?" Joanna awkwardly questioned, hoping to change the topic as soon as possible. "Sure, no one here is a fool. We were all able to tell you fell asleep for what...? Slept for a total of 15 minutes. I mean, who does that?" Aric continued to sass when Joanna had to keep her mouth shut despite ber shock. She couldn't help but wonder how she was able to have that type of dream in this situation making her seem like she was deranged and had no conscience.If anyone amongst them knew of the dream she just had, Joanna was sure she was going to be eaten by them.She peeked a glance at her mother, hoping to catch the slightest bit of reaction from her to see if she ha
Joanna's POV;I didn't need to be told that I was yet again dreaming in the midst of war. Moreover, why do my dreams always have to be wet dreams I knew would never be fulfilled. Was Sebastian sweet? Definitely not. Was Elias sweet? I really didn't know.Was Alasdair sweet? Yes, but then, why was it that my dream wasn't about him? Everytime I closed my eyes to sleep, I was always ending up in Dreamland. Have I been cursed? I didn't know but then, I recalled something and I hoped at this point, whatever it was that was going to happen in my dreams, my mother shouldn't be watching. Now that she had made herself known beside me, she didn't need to keep watching me in my dreams.After several failed attempts of trying to wake myself and leave Dreamland, I gave up on this idea and rather focused on the situation at hand. How did I even fall asleep in the first place? I couldn't understand this as my thoughts were all jammed up. A touch on my bare shoulder was enough to send me to an ent
At this, Joanna didn't know if she really knew him or he had been pretending. Either ways, now she was starting to doubt her judgment on people."Don't be surprised. He has always been like this," Stella hit Joanna's arm lightly and smiled at her."How did you....Hold up, did you know him before now?" Joanna questioned tentatively."Silly girl, how did you think he was able to accept you unto his home without any hassle? Although he is kind but Elias never trusts anyone to that extent," Stella laughed while Joanna seemed more shocked." Are you trying to tell me that you asked him to take me in?" "Of course," Stella laughed, pulling Joanna to sit."Since when did that happen?" "Unfortunately, your mother wouldn't have the time to narrate the story to you because they are near.." Elias interrupted as he took out his shiny two swords and stared at them.
**18+, killing scene, read at your risk"Things happened after your disappearance," Althea spoke and smiled at Joanna but the latter could see the worry in the little girl's eyes.Joanna didn't need to know what was making her worried and once again, she was overwhelmed with fear; the fear of where her child was."Don't worry, your son will is fine," Her mother coaxed, rubbing her arms lightly.Upon hearing the confidence in her voice, Joanna was surprised as to why."How are you so sure he's fine?" She couldn't help but ask."I'm sure because they can't do anything to hurt him. Don't you know your son has more powers than you? Thereby, making him stronger," Stella laughed while Joanna couldn't help but gulp her saliva.She had already had an inkling as to the fact that Alan had the same powers as her but she didn't realize he had more of it than she did."Aside that, he's just a little boy. What self defense does he know?" Aric asked as he stared at Althea from the corner of his eyes.
"He was taken away by a disguised witch that came for revenge.""What! A disguised witch? What is going on? What do you mean?" Alasdair asked in a hurry as he ran his fingers through his hair. It was at this moment Joanna was a le to see the fatigue in his eyes and now, she felt like she had come back to square one, like the powerless little girl she once was. "Before we continue this conversation,we need to get him inside. It's a long story...," Elias spoke, pointing at Micah who had stopped moving and his eyes were tightly shut. Immediately, they all made their way into Alasdair's house, as they shut the door tightly.Altair was smart enough to protect the house with a spell that didn't allow outsiders to hear what was going on. Indeed, the blue moon pack where everyone treated each other like families had become a pack where they all had to be careful of whom to trust."Now, can someone tell me what the hell is going on here? I'm really so confused," Mark cursed out, slapping hi
