I needed to make sure my purpose safe and part of my role as queen was to do whatever it took. even if it meant can I even with an enemy. even if it meant taking the risk and finding out.

Nikita's power and influence had been a double-edged sword. Her knowledge and experience were invaluable, but her cold demeanor and disapproval of outsiders made her a threat. ever since Ryan rooted out all the packages that tried to overthrow him, everything has been quiet. there was no longer talk of overthrowing the Alpha and nikita's Influence seemed to have subsided.

    My need to talk to Nina overwhelmed me. yet she wasn't here. I believe that she was freshening up in the Servant quarters as she had finished all her duties for the day. I got up from the bed deciding to go find Nina, I walked out of my bedroom and down the stairs. I took a right turn and hurried through the corridors where I worked down another set of stairs and entered what seemed to be a basement. because the other side of the park house where all the Servant quarters were built. I haven't been here before but I always notice the servants disappearing through these walls.My footsteps echoed in the dimly lit corridors. The unfamiliarity of this part of the pack house was evident, as I had never come to the servant quarters before and neither did I even know what it looked like. I know that I could easily instruct one of the servants to fetch her for me or I could get them to guide me to Nina's room but I didn't want to. My pride urged me to find Nina on my own, to prove to myself t

Even though I tried my best to keep matters at bay things have gotten out of control. and the park members aligned the Gate of the Park House demanding to see the alpha. I wasn't sure if they wanted to do or say. a lot of the warriors were trying to defend the Packers from angry members while others had quit. I have no idea where I was but I knew that I needed to handle the situation like the Queen or else things will get worse.“ let me through.” I demanded. the Warriors who had been holding the doors shut and stared at me with pitied. I hated the look on their faces but I also understood that they sympathized with me. they felt pity for me because of Ryan's betrayal. I had wished that our relationship matters only be made between us but now I had to share them with the pack. I wondered what I was going to tell them without suffering too much information. I had questions of my own that was still and

    I found Philip by the edge of the forest, Having looked for him everywhere even among the Warriors. I had earlier been convinced that the only place Phillip would go and he was angry and with pent-up rage was where the Warriors train. it was where Ryan went whenever he was stressed. he would spend hours training as a way to try and get rid of their anger and frustration. but Philip seemed different. just like me he stepped out of place where he could listen to his thoughts calmly without the intrusion of anyone. the view here was even better than the garden. there was a wreck right in front of us and the grass we were stepping on was cleaner than ever. much better than the forest isn't. it looks like a place that was taken care of and regularly watered. just among the miracles of mother nature. He turned as he heard my approach, his expression wary and guarded."Taylor," he greeted, his voice tinged with uncertainty. "What brings you out here at this hour?" there was no emotion in hi

    “I believe it's time we paid a visit to Nikita butane. I tried to talk to her last time but we couldn't see eye-to-eye. she might have the answers were seeking.’’ I said to Philip as I turned around. “I have been in the pack just an equal amount of time as Nikita, maybe even more. whatever you're going to ask her I can easily answer. I know Ryan just as well and I believe it's better to work together alone, than with a person with questionable loyalties’’ Philip argued. I could sense the hesitancy in his voice but I didn't want to deal with it right now. “I understand that. and I respect you and I don't doubt it.” I reassured him. “Then why would you want to trust her after she sided with the enemy?’’“Because the first signs of Witchcraft were seen with Nikita.”I needed him to understand the urgency of the situation. yet at the same time I would understand why he was so skeptical about seeking help from Nikita. As he had mentioned, both of them knew each other. Perhaps they had

    The dungeons were as cold and haunting as I remembered. This time, however, I returned with Philip by my side. I got a strange feeling that made me feel uneasy here. the last time I was here didn't end as I had hoped. Nikita had opted to chase me away, not ready to consider my request. I know that she was a tough nut to crack. I knew that she was resilient and that if Ryan was here with me then maybe her response would have been different. but I cannot rely on my mate right now. He switches up at any moment and he becomes a completely different person. I am doing this for him and for me now and for any other person in my back you might be affected by this unknown Darkness.The light barely penetrated the darkness, casting shadows across the dusty old stone walls. as we walked down the stairs I couldn't help but picture this place as something similar to the Servant quarters. I had put it as a mental note in the back of my mind to renovate the place once everything's settled down. The

    As Philip and I made our way towards the warriors' training grounds, We remained quiet not talking to each other. what Nikita had said back at the dungeons still haunted me. it kept repeating over and over again in my head. she was under a spell. Certainly that is what he had said. and it indicated that truly my suspicions were correct. Yet it would seem that I did not want to face that reality. on the other hand Phillips seemed to be distracted with something else. maybe something about the Nikita out of the. I couldn't get rid of the feeling that there was something more going on with them. something that made Nikita feel betrayed by Philip and Ryan. they had to have been good friends. not just acquaintances and Warriors. But what else? The moon bathed the pack grounds in a silvery glow, something that seems out-of-this-world. The grass shined as the Warriors stepped on it carrying heavy machinery and even smoother to train under the light of the moon. It calmed my nerves when I w

    Taylor's POVI sat across from Nikita in the dimly lit dungeons, my eyes fixed on her intently. Philip stood beside me, his arms folded, his skepticism evident. Up until now he was still uncomfortable in Nikita’s presence. yet it wasn't just discomfort. It was hatred and self-loathing. It was guilt and shame. it was as if there was something the both of them knew that I didn't. something that made this moment completely ironical. Nikita's expression was a mix of weariness and uncertainty, I could not tell what to think about the both of them. On one hand I couldn't trust Nikita but on the other Philip was acting skeptical and quite suspicious."Alright, Nikita," I began, my voice steady. "We need to understand what happened to you, how you realized you were under a spell."Nikita took a deep breath, her gaze shifting between us. I could tell that she was still hesitant but for the better part of me she had decided to at least help us out. "It started during the battle," she began, he

    I sought out Charity in her tiny house, nestled near the outskirts of the pack territory. As I approached, I could hear the crackling of a fire and the faint scent of herbs in the air. Charity was one of the oldest women in the pack. She was also a good friend of mine so I counted on her knowledge to help me with my problem. I knew that she had extensive knowledge of the pack's history, and I hoped she could shed some light on the witches' past. if there were any.When I entered, Charity was hunched over a table, pouring over Tea in a little cup before she saw me. As she looked up to greet me, I couldn't help but smile overjoyed to finally be back here.. I valued her advice greatly, even though the last time we talked and been one of the most horrible days of my life."Ah, Taylor," she said warmly, motioning for me to sit.

    Taylor's PovWhile I stepped out of the dungeons, my heart still remained back there. Scared and wondering whether bad things will happen. Charity threatened the life of my unborn child, and it wouldn't be long till I brought them into the world. What happened now? How could I stop her if I did not know what I was stopping to begin with."That bad, huh?" Philip spoke as he greeted me at the entrances. He bowed his head, showing respect as I stood in front of him."She won't give anything up." I let out, feeling frustrated. '"Should we have a go at her?""Even though I would not want that, I'm beginning to think I have no option." I quipped."My Queen, there is something you need to see. " His tone is urgent, indicating that something really troubled him. I nodded my head, allowing him to lead the way."How has Nina been?" I asked as I walked with him."I have not yet gone to see her, Luna." His tone mild rises, showing a level of irritation for the name."She's your mate.""Who betra

    Taylor's POVI stood there, feeling frozen in time. Uncertain yet, completely sure that this had to be one of the worst days of my life. “We’ve been friends since I came here,” I said, stepping forward as I stared at her. “Why?’’Charity stepped forward, her eyes mirroring a rage I’d never seen before. “I should have seen it. How fucking stupid…”“NO! You were not stupid. I just had to play stupid to make you believe you were winning.” My answer was clear, as precise as I would have hoped. “All this time we’ve spent talking. All the times I’ve given you advice on your bastard of a husband and that curse growing in your womb. Why would you think I care about you?’’ she let out, eyes meeting mine at a distance. Her words hurt me. The trust I had put in her was shuttered at this moment. Why does everyone I trust always end up hurting me?“Why did you do it Charity?’’ I repeated. “Why do you do the things you do?”“For the ones I love.’’ I affirmed. “For the ones I love.” She mirrore

    Ryan's POV“We should do something,’’ I said as I paced around the office. “ We cannot let her go out there on her own. That woman is dangerous.’’ I run my fingers through my hair as I try to overcome my frustrations. The thought of my mate being hurt enraged me. it invoked the wolf inside me making me feel out of control. Taylor was everything that I had.“ You have to trust her, man. You've already told her that you believe in her now it's time to show it. let her do this. I believe she can.’’ Philip reassured me.“ You're awfully calm. Do you not understand the magnitude of the situation? This is fucking Charity. the conniving b**** that once tried to break up my parents marriage.’’ I spoke feeling anger rise inside me.“ You need to understand that sending Taylor out there was our best option.” “This is not about options here Philip, this is about my mate. who is carrying my child. this is about the reckless decision that we have made to send her out to a powerful and dangerous

    Taylor's POV It was the first time ever since my ordeal that I was leaving the Pack House. A lot of the Pack members have been caring and had left gifts at the pack house entrances. The doctor had told me that I needed to take care of myself and be less stressed. The truth is just that during this pregnancy I have really neglected myself. I was stressed about everything and anything. please have a tough time and I felt guilty for not being able to take care of my child well. as I walked through the Pack I noticed Philip on the other side watching me at a distance. I nodded my head giving him the recognition. some of the other warriors had been positioned at designated areas of the Pack watching me. Ryan was in his office talking to Alpha Michael, Alpha Luke and Alpha Mark about what had happened. Once I gave the go-ahead, then the Pack would be called to an emergency meeting where it would be announced that the alpha had finally given their support to Ryan. Surprisingly a lot of cal

    “But my love, you have to rest.’’ Ryan insisted, trying to push me back into the bed gently. I understood that he felt guilty for what had happened to me but 3 days of bed rest was already enough. Alpha Joseph was going to attack the pack in less than 4 days now and Ryan knew nothing.“ I just want you to be okay.’’ he said politely, sitting on the bed giving up. I stared back at him. Every time I look at him I remember what he said to me. and it breaks my heart all over again.“ What happened to us?’’ I asked in a low tone sitting on the opposite side of the bed. He remained quiet. The tension in the room was heavy.“ I don't know.’’ his voice was low barely above a whisper. There was so much guilt and shame in his voice that it almost made me feel horrible. I felt like I was making him this way. But he has made a lot of mistakes and I still have not seen the real Ryan trying to surface. “ but I want to make it up to you. and I've been trying my best to show you just how sorry I am.

    As we exited Philip's office, I could feel the eyes of pack members on us. Everyone had heard her screams and they had come to check up on her. somehow I suspected that both of them believed they had hurt her. The package was feeding me. They saw me as a monster. They saw me as a direct representation of my father. Even though I hated them for seeing me like this, I couldn't help but feel content that they would be ready to protect my maid even against me. “What happened to the queen?’’ one woman asked in a high-pitched voice. “Luna Taylor, are you okay?’’ a little kid about 5 or 6 years old as good as she tried to touch her amol I carried her through the people. the crowd of people only began to grow. each one of them murmuring and praying to the moon goddess that Taylor would be all right. Among the voices was a sample even asking whether I had hurt her. Another one said that the moon goddess was punishing me for the way I treated her. I wanted to silence my brain. I wanted to sil

    While we all turned to look who it was, I couldn't help but clutch my stomach feeling overwhelmed by fear. I felt anxious. and I wondered whether alpha Joseph had decided to finally attack. We were unprepared. we were unguarded and no one would expect it. the traumatizing moments of when he and my father had kidnapped me into my mind. I felt the tears flowing from my eyes as I fell to my knees. “Alpha Ryan! What is the meaning of this!’’ Philip reprimanded Ryan as he stepped into the room with an ax in his hand. there was a sharp pain in my abdomen causing me to scream out in pain. all attention was turned to me. I felt as if my stomach was churning. I could feel the tears flowing from my eyes. it was as if everything else had quieted down. it was as if I was the only one in the world.“AAAHH!’’ I let out another scream feeling yet again the same search of pain in my abdomen. What the hell was going on? “Taylor.’’ Will someone call my name screaming my name? but I couldn't Place Wh

    Over the past few days everything has been remarkably better. Ryan and I had not gotten the opportunity to talk about what happened. I avoided him while he tried apologizing. I was done with it. he had apologized enough times and none of the two seemed sincere. I had spent a lot of time among the people. providing food and upkeep while learning recipes from the older women in the pack. This was also my opportunity to try and learn as much as possible about the witches without asking people directly. I had gathered quite a reasonable amount of information. Everyone seems to have seen dust. There was a dark brown dust that had risen in the air the day before the battle and it came from the north side of the Pack territory. At first I had dismissed that information until I figured that more than enough people saw it. a bunch of people could not have hallucinated the same thing. they had to be credible to that story. I couldn't help but wonder whether the smoke was an indication that tha

    Earlier today, Ryan's grandmother had summoned me into a room. She wanted us to talk about something. I knew what she wanted us to talk about, i didn’t want to talk about it but I still availed myself. and I wasn't wrong. “ Taylor my dear, I'm glad you could make it.’’ she said with a smile on her face as she stretched her arms welcoming me into an embrace. I did not hesitate, hugging her immediately as she held on to me much tighter than usual. Mrs Monroe had never called me into her room. I have only ever gone to her whenever I was troubled but after the meal I had shared with the pack members my heart had been feeling lighter and I was no longer so worried about everything.Ryan’s grandmother was sitting by the window and looking out at the pack grounds. Her expression was a mix of sadness and contemplation, as if she held the weight of the world on her shoulders. Sometimes I felt like she was lonely. sad.
