Taylor's POV

“Ryan has been acting so distant.’’

“Hasn't he always been distant? Or is it just happening now?’’ Matthew answered, picking up his bow and arrow as he advanced behind me quickly.

“This is different Matthew. He knows something that he isn't telling me. He's hiding something from me and it frustrates me.’’ I answered.

I had been thinking about it for the past few days. ever since the incident with his father, Daniel, Ryan had been different.

“I noticed something but I really didn't want to tell you about it until I was sure.’’ Alpha Joseph turned his head towards Matthew immediately. it never was so desperate for information that he was right now. He needed answers. He needed his son to be honest with him; the honesty that he had never truly offered ryan.

“What is it?’’ He stuck his arrow to the ground and stared at his beta. There were only three people in the entire Park who knew what he had done. Only three people understood where Daniels' anger was coming from, an

    Ryan She was like a craving I didn't know I had. An addiction. My addiction. The moment we kissed, every part of me instantly knew that she was the woman whom I wanted to be kissing for the rest of my life. She is the woman who is meant for me. The answer to all the prayers I've been praying to the moon goddess monster finally here is someone I genuinely love. Someone whom I don't need to pretend that I care for. When she stared at me like that, I lost myself in those beautiful eyes. I was weak. like a man who had been put on a spell. I felt like I was enchanted. Yet when she put that hand over my chest and looked at my eyes, my cock had grown instantly hard in just 30 seconds. She had so much effect and control over me. She could easily make me worship her if she wanted. When our lips crushed together, it was heavenly. They felt nothing short of that. All I could think about was how my life would be with her by my side. For all eternity. She is indeed a gift from the Moon goddess.

    Taylor’s Pov The pleasant expression on my face changed abruptly. “That's not true!” I recant. The statement story registers in my head. I begin to understand what he had said and all that Rises inside me is nothing but rebellion. My father is a lot of things. He is capable of bad things but a murderer question mark that is not who he is. He loses his temper when he is not obeyed. and I have learnt to understand and listen to him. but he is not capable of taking another person's life. He is better than that. mother has always taught me that father is better than that. When I look at Ryan's father all I can see in His Eyes is Condemned. he is happy with my suffering. He is happy with the shock and fear in my eyes. All I can wonder is whether he would ever come to accept me as Ryan’s mate. “You're lying. you made this up…’’ I say watching the expression of gilt-edged on his face. yet he forms a smile before taking a Step Closer. “ Are you calling me a liar?” Ryan places a hand on

    Ryan The morning had been filled with celebration about the news. Every citizen of the pack had been busy performing their normal chores in preparation for the mating ceremony. For some reason, no one in the Pack really spoke about my father's mating ceremony. I wanted to know about it. Yet even my own father avoided that conversation like it was a plague. However, I busied myself by solving the grievances of my citizens. I had gone out to the pack. I had spoken to my warriors and some of the citizen representatives. I was so excited about the mating ceremony that I needed to find something else to keep my mind busy with. What better thing than to interact with my own people. I was accompanied by Philip and my head warrior, Nikita Butane. “Why have I never realized that the water pipeline broke down five months ago? No one told me about this.’’ I dropped the comment as we walked away from the chief Elder. Philip scribbled down the problem and a possible solution that I had suggest

    Taylor My bedroom door creaks open, a hand pressing against the wood as they step inside. “Pardon me for the inclusion, may I come in?’’It's Nina, carrying a tray with breakfast. “You are already in.’’ I am so curtly. I sit up, rubbing my eyes, and watch as she sets the tray down on my bedside table. The smell of fresh pancakes and bacon makes my stomach grumble. However, looking at her only makes me hear the Echo of the word she had earlier spoken. And the questions return to plague my mind. “Luna, I would like to apologize for our interaction earlier.’’ Suddenly my heart grows soft. And I can't help but ask myself why I'm being angry at her instead of whoever or spreading these rumors. Yet, were they really rumors? “It’s okay.” I say as I smile. “Why don't you join me and eat with me?" Nina looks at me in surprise, as if she hadn't expected me to ask her to join me. But then she nods, smiling. "I'd love to." We sat side by side, enjoying the delicious breakfast. Nina tell

    Three Days Later Taylor I fidgeted nervously with my napkin, trying to avoid Ryan's intense gaze. I knew he could feel the tension in the air, but I didn't want to talk about it. Not yet. "Taylor, is everything okay?" Ryan finally asked, his voice gentle and concerned. I forced a small smile, hoping it would be enough to deflect his worry. "Yeah, everything's fine," I replied softly. But Ryan wasn't convinced. "You've been distant lately. Is there something on your mind?" he asked, his tone even gentler than before. I felt my heart clench at his words. Of course, there was something on my mind. But it was personal, and I wasn't ready to talk about it. Not with anyone, not even with Ryan. "No, everything's fine," I repeated, trying to sound more convincing this time. Ryan sighed softly, his eyes searching mine. "Did I do something to upset you?" he asked, his voice hesitant. I shook my head quickly, not wanting him to think that he had done anything wrong. "No, no, of course n

    Taylor The sun was shining bright in the sky, and I couldn't take it anymore. I had been stuck inside the palace for too long, and the fresh air was calling my name. I just needed to escape, to feel the grass beneath my feet and the wind in my hair. I looked around my room, scanning for something that I could wear that would make me blend in with the gardeners and the workers outside. I found a simple sundress and a wide-brimmed hat, and slipped them on as quickly as I could. As I walked out of my room, I couldn't help but feel nervous. What if Ryan's guards caught me? What if Anna, my maid and best friend, saw me leaving and tried to stop me? I had to be careful, to move quickly and quietly. I made my way down the hall, my heart pounding in my chest. I tried to walk as calmly as possible, but my legs felt like they were made of jelly. Every creak of the floorboards sounded like an alarm, warning the guards of my presence. But somehow, I made it to the garden gates without being s

    Ryan I stepped onto the training field, my sword at the ready. Philip, my best friend and second in command, stood across from me, his own sword glinting in the sunlight. We had been sparring partners for years, and I knew that he was one of the best swordsmen in the kingdom. We circled each other warily, each of us waiting for the other to make a move. I watched as Philip shifted his weight, his eyes focused on my every move. I could tell that he was analyzing my stance, looking for any weaknesses he could exploit. I feinted to the left, then quickly swung my sword to the right. Philip parried the blow easily, then launched a counter-attack. I deflected his sword with mine, then swung low, aiming for his feet. He jumped over my blade, then came at me from above. We continued to dance around each other, our swords clashing in a blur of metal. Sweat dripped down my forehead, and my arms ached with the effort of holding my sword steady. But I refused to give up, determined to prove t

    Ryan’s Pov After the training session, I was sweaty and exhausted. But the satisfaction of a good workout was quickly replaced with anxiety as a messenger arrived with a summons from my father, Alpha Joseph. I glanced over at Philip, and he mirrored my expression. It wasn't uncommon for my father to call us to the palace, but it was always nerve-wracking. We made our way back to the palace and were quickly escorted to my father's chambers. As we entered, my father was sitting behind his desk, his face serious and stern. "Ryan, Philip," he greeted us, motioning for us to sit. "I've received some troubling news from our neighboring pack. It seems that there has been an increase in rogue wolf activity, and they've requested our assistance." I felt a knot form in my stomach. Rogue wolves were dangerous, and it wasn't uncommon for them to attack neighboring packs. I knew that we couldn't ignore this request for help. "I'm sending a group of our warriors to assist them," my father cont

    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.
