Here's for today and a bit longer than usual! Tomorrow will be Alexa's homecoming chapter/s and, of course, more to come about Achilles and Argon, but we are soooo near the end (and the whole series' wrapping up *shedding tears already*)! Hang in there, lovelies! Thank you for reading! Don't forget to leave comments, gems, and reviews for us! ♡
ALEXA. The moment we entered the territory, my heart started thudding loudly, and I blamed it on the fact that I was nervous about meeting this pack again. I knew they didn’t have a choice but to accept me because their Alpha wanted them to. I just hoped they would not give me cold shoulders where Aeon could see it. I didn’t want Aeon to worry that his pack didn’t like me. He has many things to think about, and I didn’t want my presence to be an added problem for him. "Where are we heading?" I asked, my brows furrowing as my gaze trailed down the path we were driving down. I have never been in and out of the territory a lot, but on the occasions that I did, I always came in and came out at the same border exit. I already memorized the road leading to the pack house. Because at one point, I was planning to run away, so I knew what I was looking at now was not the same path I knew. "To the packhouse. Our home." Aeon winked at me as he squeezed my hand. "No. This is not the way to th
ALEXA. The night turned out better than I expected. If I was doubting that this pack would accept me, it was all gone by the time we were eating and drinking. The whole time, whether I was seated or standing next to Aeon, or on my own, our pack members would approach me and introduce themselves. Most were females and their pups. And I could see excitement and sincerity in their eyes — they were just as happy as I was. But despite that, my eyes were searching for someone. I had no idea how many times I let my gaze scan the grounds, looking for that one female that I knew sooner or later I had to face. But I didn’t find her. I’ve been itching to ask someone, but I hesitated because I didn’t want to sound insecure, but I guess I underestimated my Beta Female. She could read me. "She’s no longer here." Holly came and stood beside me, handing me a tall glass of Long Island iced tea as she sipped her own drink. "Thank you. What do you mean?" My forehead creased. I wasn’t sure if we were
AEON. "Are you not mad at me that I marked you without asking?" She inquired as I led us into our bedroom after our brief encounter in the corridor. "No," I answered, dropping her gently at the end of the bed. "I want this mark." I saw her eyes scan the room briefly before placing her gaze back on me. "Really? Why did you never ask me to mark you?" I smiled at her as I dropped to my knees in front of her, positioning myself in between her legs. "After everything I did to you, I wanted to be careful in asking you to do things for me. But I want this mark. I was just waiting for you to want to mark me." I clasped our hands together before placing them on my mouth, kissing all her knuckles. "If there’s anything in my body right now that I want, aside from my dick…" She giggled and shook her head. "Really now?" "This dick is important to make you happy, so yes.." I chuckled at my explanation before I continued. "...but seriously, this mark is like a trophy, a sign that I am lucky to
LADY KATARINA I let my gaze wander around my bedroom one last time. This place has been my solace, my fortress for the last 20 years of my life, and today, I am moving forward. I was finally moving into Lucas’ territory, and in a few days, I would be finally claimed by my Alpha. Our union would be held on the same day that Lucas and I would be named the Alpha and Luna of the Midnight Pack. This was something I was looking forward to. But I know that this was not a farewell to my own pack because, sooner or later, Lucas and I will step in as the Alpha and Alpha Luna of this pack, as Darvin had chosen to live his life as a regular wolf. A smile graced my lips as my mind reeled through everything that has happened in my life in the last six months. If I knew what was waiting for me at the end, I should have trusted the Goddess with my fate and just stayed still, waiting for Lucas to arrive on my doorstep. But instead, I tried to fight my way out of the Claiming, by trying to buy and
ALEXA. Aeon was busy for the whole day, and after I got bored of checking furniture and things we needed in the pack house online, I went up to our room and started rummaging through the luggage that I brought home with us. My mate told me that we would spend one day at Aspen City, a neutral ground where we would buy clothes and other personal items. Not that I needed more. Momma splurged on me and bought me clothes more than I needed. Although I didn’t want more, I was looking forward to that day in Aspen City with him. Growing up, I could never afford to buy anything. I grew up in an orphanage where I only got second-hand items that were given by the institution, and I couldn’t do anything but be satisfied with them. I had to live within my means, which meant I had to live with nothing most of the time - so I got used to it. Even after I turned eighteen and started working, I could never afford to splurge my hard-earned money on myself. I used it to pay for the little space I was
ALEXA. After I cleaned up the mess of clothing in our room, I headed downstairs and looked for Aeon. He was not inside the pack house, and I was told he was at the training grounds. Instead of sending him a mindlink, I decided to go and see him personally. Since it was already nighttime, I was expecting there would be fewer people I would meet along the way, and I could just enjoy the quiet surroundings on my way to where he was. I nodded and smiled at the warriors I met inside and outside of the pack house, and I couldn’t help but feel happy. They were looking at me with so much respect, different from the way they were looking at me when I came here for the first time. Serenity purred in my head. She was loving her freedom, although she hadn’t shifted yet. And I was excited for her. I couldn’t wait until she could shift and be able to run around in our territory. Our territory. Our pack. That sounded heavenly. I smiled despite myself as my eyes scanned the surroundings. I used
AEON. After our pack run with our warriors, we went to dinner in high spirits. Alexa couldn’t stop gushing about how scared she was before shifting, and if she didn’t trust me at all, she would never let Serenity out. But she said she was glad she did, or she might still be under the impression that every wolf in here was out to get her once she shifted. Those simple words — she trusts me — made my heart swell with pride. She trusted me, even if it meant putting her life on the line. But I was glad that she knew I would do everything to protect her and that I was her biggest ally in this world. On the other hand, Edward, my Gamma, was disappointed that he was not able to run with us since he was on the other side of the territory doing security checks on the protocols implemented there. But despite his whining and Alexa consoling him by promising him that she would attend the next full moon run where Edward would be assisting with pups shifting, the dinner was a happy one. Our new p
23 Years Ago. SUZANNE’s POV (taken from her diary). I rested my forehead on the window as the car drove away from the border into the Silver Moon territory after we were allowed entrance. I would be seeing Nicole. It had been almost a year since I last saw her, and now we were here for her Union with Benjamin. The few other times that our parents went here, I didn’t come along. But now, seeing the beauty that surrounds this place, I wish I had visited more often. I was so accustomed to the cold weather and the frozen atmosphere in our territory that the sight of vibrantly colored trees and the warmth that surrounded the place was so inviting. Maybe I could stay for a while and enjoy the warm weather. And maybe I could find my mate here. Nicole was just eleven months younger than me, and yet she found her mate first. But at 19, I was still young — no need to rush. Besides, I’m an Alpha Female. Whoever mates with me could be the next Alpha of my pack if he was not an Alpha himself.

Let's not spoil the fun for them. 💖💜 Much love, Cass ---------Caleb - 50 years old Jake - 49 years old Aeon, Darvin - 48 years old Riley, Dominic, Lucas - 47 years old Caspian, Kallan - 46 years oldALPHA JACOB.My hand coiled around the whisky glass in my hand, I have been a retired Alpha now for almost five years and yet I couldn't stop the Alpha in me from aiming for a better world for the future pups of our race. So when the opportunity was presented, I took advantage and grabbed it.Heading the Council was something I never saw in my future, but after my experience with Clair and what happened with my sweet Catherine, I couldn't turn a blind eye anymore. I had to take the matter into my own hands. I campaigned and asked for support from the Alphas that I knew would alw
Author’s Name - Females’ will be addressed by the Goddess using their maiden names (just because she wanted to) :D SELENE’S POV (The Moon Goddess). My Females. My lovely Females. I couldn’t control my wolves once they were on earth and allowed to use their free will to rule their own species. And most of the time, they would always end up hurting me. But nothing hurt me more than when my females were used as a bargaining chips. Whether they are Alpha Females or Omegas, whatever their ranks, they are my females and I expect nothing less for them. They deserved to be respected for their own choices. But my wolves kept failing me from time to time. The Claiming was something I never dreamed of for my Alpha Females, but I couldn’t do anything except do my part and find a good mate strong enough to fight for their females. And some of these men didn’t fail me. But a lot did. But I hoped that one day, my wolves would wake up and give these females the respect they deserved. I wa
Ten Years after the Alpha and Luna Ceremony.ALEXA.My hands smoothed over Amara’s hair as I carefully fixed her long blonde hair into a high ponytail. I was sitting on a vanity chair with my eight-year-old princess on my lap and my four-year-old little boy playing on the floor just beside where my feet were.We had a few guests coming over to discuss the business plans that we were about to embark on at the Black Shadow Pack territory. This has been Clair’s dream, and with the help of our Alphas, it would soon become a reality.Clair had always wanted to build a school for werewolves within their territory so that the pups of their pack would never have to travel far just to get a formal education. When Caspian, Riley, and Aeon heard of the plans, they immediately wanted to go for it.The reason: their daughters.They desired a safe environment for their daughters to attend school, as well as the freedom to develop their full potential without having to hide their identities.So the
ALEXA. "Hammond, come to Auntie Alexa… I got some broccoli for you!" I wiggled the little bowl I was holding with broccoli cut into thin slices inside. Hammond, Holly and Krane’s son, was almost one-and-a-half years old and had a really big appetite for vegetables that I was having fun feeding him from time to time. Little Hammond clapped his hands as he beamed and trudged his way to me with a smiling Holly following behind him. I extended my hands and lifted him up before placing him on my lap, and he immediately started munching on the broccoli his hand was able to grab. Today is my baby shower and a gender reveal. Although all signs were pointing to a female, we still wanted to be sure since I didn’t want to buy a neutral color for her clothes. Not that I am against neutral colors, but a part of me wishes I could be a mother to a female the way my mother could have been to me if she had been given the chance and the luxury to do so. Hammond started to fidget on my lap and his mo
Two Years After the Alpha and Luna CeremonySIERRA. I just turned eighteen yesterday, and Kallan was preparing to head off to the Blood Moon territory for the baby shower for Luna Alexa. I’ve been wanting to tag along but I didn’t know if Kallan would be okay with it, so I waited until this morning to ask him, but like always, I get tongue-tied whenever it comes to asking if I could go with him to Alpha Aeon’s territory because I dreaded the next question - Why?Because I had no idea what to answer if he asked again.I couldn’t tell him that my eyes were delighted to see the Gamma in that pack. Edward never spoke to me again for the next two years after being cocky towards me on the first day we met.I would see him glancing my way and nodding his head in acknowledgment, but he never made an effort to speak with me. I, on the other hand, did try, but he would always go and turn around, remembering things he needed to do.But I saw how his eyes lit up at the sight of me. Or the smile
AEON. I leaned my body against the pillars of the doorway in front of the packhouse, watching as Holly and some of the Omega females fixed everything we needed to take inside the car. I already smelled Alexa, and I knew soon she would be here asking questions. I had already been up since six o’clock in the morning, and since Alexa didn’t have anything scheduled for this morning, she decided to sleep more, which was convenient for me for the things I had in mind for today. "What’s going on? Why is there no one in the dining room?" She asked at the same time I heard little footsteps approaching. I didn’t turn around and instead slipped a hand inside my shorts pocket. "What are they doing?" She stopped beside me, her eyes gazing at Holly by the car in the pack house grounds. "Good morning, love." I greeted her instead of answering her questions before I moved from leaning against the wall and pecked her temples. "Where is Holly going? Have you eaten breakfast?" "We had an early bre
ALEXA. My legs swayed back and forth as I sat on the balcony railings on the third floor, facing the wide packhouse grounds below and the view far ahead. The wind blew against my skin, its cold air enveloping my whole body as the moon lit me wonderfully, cascading its glorious light on me. I felt like a goddess, a queen, sitting on her throne, which was this beautiful railing that has been my favorite spot for the last few days now. Aeon was still in a night meeting at his office with the Alpha Circle. They wanted to keep saying they were having meetings, but the Lunas knew they were just spending time teasing and annoying each other at least once a week. Not that I was complaining. In fact, I was happy he was able to reconnect with them. It made the loss of Argon easier for him with his friends around him. As for me, it has been months since my father died at the hands of my mate. Did I have any regrets? No. Although his death wouldn’t change anything in the past, with him gone
