Summer (Werewolf Queen)When the patrol team announced the arrival of Alpha Martinez and his entourage, both my mate and I were shocked. Usually, alphas alert us of their intention to visit beforehand. Now, this unexpected visit roused a lot of questions in us but we had to let them into our territory to understand their agenda. That is precisely what we did. After a while, Martinez arrived with his entourage and a heavily pregnant mate. My initial reaction upon noticing his heavily pregnant mate was wrath. I was enraged at his negligence. Unable to curb it, I lashed out at Martinez before they even settled down. "Alpha Martinez! Is this how you treat your mate? What could have been so urgent that you dragged her into such a tiresome long trip? Could you not have called or sent your beta?"" My queen, I..." "No Les, let me talk to her. I came because it was absolutely necessary for me too. It is not my mate's fault. An outsider like me, not bound by werewolf laws is what you guys n
May When I spoke to the queen, I could tell that she understood me quite well. I was slightly afraid that she would take it wrongly but luckily, she caught my drift. I tried the best I could to lay out the facts for her and she agreed with me. Although she took her time sitting there quietly before she stood up. "Thank you, May. This is the rude awakening that I badly needed. Now that Sapphire has unearthed a clue we had overlooked, I have to look deeper into this Ramos case. You are right, I am the queen and ought to act like one. Sitting back and relaxing might just plunge my kingdom into chaos. I cannot thank you enough, my dear. Everything you pointed out, I promise to look into everything without bias. Aria's issue is a bit sensitive as my younger cousin will not accept that his mate is not who we think she is. However, I will handle him. It is time that we purge this kingdom of scum."After saying that, she left the room and I remained seated. What else could I do in this sta
Alpha MartinezWhen my mate screamed in pain, my heart clenched as I was powerless. There was nothing I could do to ease the pain. All I could do was plead with Sapphire to help ease her discomfort. Sapphire walked closer and touched May's temples and she frowned slightly. Then she moved her hands to her belly and sprang up in a panic. "Alpha, my queen, luna May is in the early stages of labor!"When Sapphire finished saying this, everyone was panicking. I can say I am still the one in a panic since then till now. My mate is in excruciating pain and her labor is progressing slowly, according to the doctor. I am glad the queen and Sapphire have not left her side since then. My wolf and I are beyond agitated. I have seen other women give birth but they never took this long. It is getting rather disheartening to see my little human mate go through so much agony for my sake. Honestly, at this juncture, if I were to make a choice, I would opt to go back to when we were just the two of
Alpha Martinez Although they have just wheeled my mate into the operating room, it feels as if they have been in there for too long. Something tells me that things are not going to end well for me. I have had this ominous hunch since the doctors took my mate into the operating theatre. Although I am trying to be strong for her sake, deep inside, I am breaking apart. When will all these problems end? Why should it always be my mate who gets dealt the worst cards of fate?When I could still hear her screams, I was agonized but still hopeful. However, when they took her into the operating room and her screams ceased, a certain fear engulfed me. There was solace in hearing her screams. The waiting game is unsettling. None of us has said a word to the other. We are all engrossed in our own thoughts. Sapphire has been pacing up and down chanting softly in her weird language. Only the goddess knows what she is doing. I have a feeling she is praying for May in her own way. The queen looks
May Everything happened so fast. One minute I was writhing and screaming my head off in pain, and the next minute, suffocating darkness enveloped me. The darkness scared me and it felt eerily familiar. I have been here before and the realization of the truth broke my heart into pieces. I knew that I gave birth to a child as I heard his screams before I was completely engulfed by the darkness. I felt angry and helpless. Why did I have to die and leave my child motherless? Everything is now meaningless. This endless darkness is suffocating me. I try to search for the light but do not find any. Just like the last time I was here, I refuse to stay in this dark place. I start walking hoping to stumble upon the moon goddess once again. This time, the walk seems longer and agonizing. It takes me a while to realize that it is because my heart is shattered. Unlike the last time I was caught up in this darkness, this time I just cannot embrace this darkness. I so desire to return to my chil
Unknown What sorcery is this? Who could have done this? I may not have my full strength but no magic evades me. However, what just transpired is beyond me! Could it have been the moon goddess or is it the white witch? I hate not having answers to my questions. What's worse is Ramos has once again failed me! Why ever I keep rescuing him, beats me! Has there been some improvement in the werewolf realm that I know nothing about? What sort of power is that? Who has the power to raise people from the dead? Not even Zeus dares defy the rules that were set since the beginning of time. Vampires have always been stubborn and do as they please. Amongst all the supernatural beings, they are the only ones who can awaken a dead person and turn them into a vampire. However, that can only be done in the few minutes that the person dies. This turning process has to be done before rigor mortis sets in. That is the only way it can be successful. Wolves, though they cannot raise the dead, they can
May I struggle to open my eyes for a while but I can distinctly hear voices in the room. However, the voice I long to hear the most is not present. "She is indeed breathing! This is a miracle! One that will surely go down in the books of history! How did this happen? Is it the moon goddess? I wish she could just wake up and relay to us all that happened."This is king Royale's voice. He sounds quite excited as he speaks. Then I feel myself being lifted and I guess they are taking me elsewhere. Luckily, I do not have to keep guessing as the people carrying me begin taking. It turns out that it is the queen and Sapphire. "We have to put her back in the guest room they were sharing. Since Martinez is unconscious, the bed is big enough to accommodate the two of them. Let us put them there and allow the mate bond to heal both of them. You and I can take turns looking after the baby." The queen explains to Sapphire. Feeling at ease, I stop forcing my eyes to open. I am not sure if there
May The first few days after I returned from the netherworld, I was coupled up in the royal palace guest room recuperating. Leslie has been very helpful. Motherhood is not easy and much more terrifying than I ever imagined. The baby wakes up several times during the night and I will be too darn sleepy to care. Luckily, Leslie is here for me. I know that alone I would not have managed this motherhood business. Apart from having to wake up when in a deep slumber to feed the baby, everything else is fine. Being a mother gives me an oddly satisfying sense of security. Instead of me being protective, I know that my baby has the power to protect me. He did and brought me back from the dead. I feel as if I am the luckiest human being in the whole universe. As stupid as this sounds, I am actually grateful to my sister Flo and my ex-boyfriend, Louis, for attempting to murder me. They thought that I had died and to hide their crime, they drove hundreds of miles to dump my body in the wilder
MayI may have grown up in the human realm and lived like any other normal human child. However, my life has been anything but normal. Looking back, my life has really been a rollercoaster of way too many coincidences. Over the years, I learned to live with my pain. I had no choice but to adapt and move forward. In the face of injustices, I had to swallow my pride and stifle my own individuality. Such was the life I had to lead for many years. Not once, did I ever think that I would one day be happy and have a say in anything that concerns me? My life has always been one where I follow orders or get hurt. Mine was a life full of misery and pain. Happiness was taboo.Even after facing so many near-death experiences, I somehow pulled through. All this, I attribute to being just plain lucky. However, now that I have met my mate and had a deeper conversation with the moon goddess, I do not believe in coincidences anymore. I have not been coincidentally lucky as I presumed. I have been
May I don't think I will ever view my son as just my baby. He is my savior, my hope, and the reason why I am still breathing today. He truly became my beacon in the darkest of times. My light at the end of the tunnel. After narrating to everyone what happened for the past three days I had been unconscious, everyone was baffled. Well, I could sense different reactions from each of them. Awe, disbelief, envy but overall, there was pronounced relief. I can easily decipher the reason for this relief. No one wants to be clueless about what happens around them. Therefore, they were relieved to know how it all started. Honestly, I am relieved as well. Knowing that it was in a way my son's plight that moved the gods to act in my favor, makes my heart melt. I know that the love I have for my son is just way too deep and immense. This little champion is my benefactor. Since my wings have retracted, my language has returned back to normal. I guess it will switch back to that ancient language
May Well, every word that has come out of the moon goddess's mouth has been nothing short of an eye-opener. This world is surely full of mystery. According to Selene, when my son's blood mixed with mine, as I was on the verge of death, he turned me into a wolf by default. However, as he also experienced agony in those few moments, he broke free from the darkness and embraced the light of the angels. His umbilical cord was still attached to me. Therefore, the light of the angels penetrated through the umbilical cord. I shake my head trying to process what she has just said but fail. I look at her once more and she sees my confusion and explains to me, one more time. "Do not be surprised dear child. Two powers converged and entered your body at the same time. Your son's blood and the angel's halo. A werewolf has the power to turn a gravely injured human into a wolf. Thereby giving them their rapid healing ability. Normally, this is done with the hope of reviving the dying person. I
May "As Ramos slit you open, life slowly slipped out of you. Your son, although he was quickly pulled out, he also felt the cold hands of death as they wrapped around your soul. He requested the universe, to preserve your life." When Selene mentions this, I feel a cold shiver shake my whole being. I already know that the supernatural world is full of magic, just not to this extent. How can I come around the fact that an infant could make such an instantly answered request like that? I look up at the moon goddess, trying to see if she is bluffing or not. However, the solemn look on her face makes me believe that she is being honest. Oh, snap! What am I even thinking? Could a goddess even waste her breath lying to me? Could it be that this is the reason why she painstakingly elucidated the sacredness of the bond? Slowly, slowly, everything is beginning to make sense now. I am glad I did not rush her or interrupt her from the beginning. Had I done so, I definitely would have been fre
May I have no idea how long we have been sitting here since in this realm, time seems to be stagnant. I have not uttered a word since my first question to the moon goddess. I am not in a hurry therefore, I cannot urge her to just talk to me. She knows what is best for me and she will tell me all I need to hear. For now, I will enjoy the silence and ponder on the information she has just given me. Selene, the moon goddess, seems to be lost in thought. I wonder what it is that she does not wish to disclose to me. It seems like whatever she has to tell me is something deeper than I presumed. Things surely are not as simple as they appear. Her silence is beginning to rouse a bit of anxiety in me. After what seemed to be a very long stretch of sheer silence, she finally turned her attention to me. This time around, she holds my hand and resumes talking. Her gentle voice soothes all the anxiety away and I am grateful for that. "Dear child, even though I tried to ease up your misfortune
May I kept staring at the moon goddess waiting for her to carry on. By now, her story has captivated me. Although she has not explained anything fully, I still feel that I need to hear this. Once again, she stares into space and I know that she is lost in her own thoughts. As she spaces out, I try to process what she has been trying to tell me, and I still can't figure it out. What exactly did she mean by her explanation? No matter how hard I try, her explanation remains vague. Until today, I had no idea that even gods had a hierarchy. She mentioned that the gods of a higher power are the ones that decided my fate. To put it in her words, the gods decided to rewrite my fate. The main question is why? However, until Selene decides to open up to me, I will not be able to answer myself. Looking back at the past year of my life, I fail to grasp the meaning of the incidents that occurred in my life. Everything that happened was surreal, to say the least. I never believed in the superna
May Although I feel upset about being alone in this room, I understand that they need to talk. Especially now that I have turned out to be more than just a mere human. I also need to understand what exactly happened for me to turn into a seraph. I never thought that my life would take such a huge twist. I guess whoever is writing my life story has a twisted mind. The gods, or fate, or whoever it is out there, really enjoy toying with my emotions. If only there was a way of foreseeing how the future would turn out! Unfortunately, in this life, someone else holds the reins and we just have to roll with the punch. There is no one to question why neither is there any way to refuse that which is thrust upon us. Lying on my belly, although usually very comfortable, becomes quite unnerving when I know that it is the only position viable. As for my shoulder blades, they are so painful that any slight movement hurts me so badly. Anyway, since the seraph said I will be okay, then I just have
May Everything has become subjugating and anxiety-inducing. How did I turn from plain old me to this dazzling heavenly creature in the blink of an eye?Not once did I even dream that a day would come when my life would change so drastically? Of course, I knew that being mates to a werewolf would come with its challenges. However, I did not for once, think that I would become one of the supernatural beings. I knew that my parents were royals but that was just it. I neither wanted to claim the rights to the throne nor go back to a place where nothing but sorrow awaits me. I have been content with my life since I met my mate, Leslie Martinez. Yes, we have had our fair share of problems and it has been hard. Nonetheless, we have managed to pull through every challenge. Some of the problems I have faced in the short time that I spent in the werewolf realm have been torturous. However, with each hurdle, we managed to grow closer. It is precisely because we became closer that we agreed
Manny ReynoldsWhen Summer called me to visit the Royal Pack, I did not think much of it. I just thought that there were issues she needed to discuss with me in person.I took my mate along and Aria insisted on bringing Scarlett as well. Did I find their friendship odd? Of course, I did. These two were like fire and ice in the beginning. From the very first time my mate set foot in the Luminous pack, Scarlett Sawyer did not like her. They even fought on her first day of joining Luminous High school. Scarlett despised my mate because back then, everyone thought Aria was just a mere human. Luckily, my mate was not a pushover. She handed it to them in style. Heck, she even beat up both the Sawyer siblings as well as their dad. When I got to the school, I was shocked when I saw the damage she had caused. Her wolf hid so well that not even my dad and uncle could tell that she was one of us. Nonetheless, I was overjoyed to have finally met my mate. Her mother, Henna, turned out to be, doc
