I approached my mother, who was standing by the window, looking out at the darkening sky. "Mother," I said softly.

She turned to me, her eyes red and puffy from crying. "Ryan, my son," she said, her voice breaking. "I never wanted this for you."

"I know, mother," I said, taking her hand in mine. "But we have to be strong now. We have to fight for what's right."

"I know," she said, wiping away a tear. "But it's so hard. Your father... he was always so proud of you. He wanted you to be just like him."

"I'm not like him," I said firmly. "I'm my own person, with my own beliefs and values. And I will do everything in my power to protect this pack and make it better for all of us."

"I believe in you, Ryan," she said, her voice filled with pride. "You are a strong and capable leader, just like your father. But you are also kind and compassionate, something he never was."

I smiled at her words, grateful for her support. "Thank you, mother. I won't let you down."

"I know you won't," she said,

    “The queen…’’ Darius spoke, his tone breaking in between as he panted like a dog with a dry mouth. “What? What is it?’’ I asked, a smile still formed on my face from the conversation that Philip and I were having. Philip looked up at Darius, displaying a worried look on his face. Suddenly I felt like the odd one out among the three of us. The race was a great warrior of mine from step one of the ones that I trusted the most. I had sent him out to get Taylor. I have not seen her for the past 3 hours and I just needed to be with her. I also wanted to give him something to be with his mate before we needed to reflect our thoughts and come back to the drawing board.“Darius, where is the Queen?’’ Philip asked. At this point I find myself drawing my attention to both of them. my mind slowly catches up on what's going on. It was as if my heart was forming a cage to convince myself that all was fine. I should have suspected it. she should have been the first person I went to look for aft

    I felt like a caged animal, trapped in my own mind as I frantically searched for any clue that could lead me to Taylor. My Beta, Philip, was right beside me, his eyes equally crazed with the need to find our packmate and friend.We had been searching for hours, scouring every inch of our territory, but still, there was no sign of Taylor. My frustration and anger were boiling over, and I could feel my control slipping away."We need to find her, Philip. We can't let her be lost to us," I growled, my voice hoarse with emotion."I know, Alpha. We'll find her, I promise," he replied, his hand tightening on the hilt of his sword.We continued our search, moving deeper into the forest. Suddenly, we heard a loud crash in the distance, followed by the sound of voices.Without a second thought, we charged towards the noise, our bodies moving in unison as we ran towards the source of the commotion.As we got closer, we could see a group of humans, armed and dangerous, surrounding a small cabin.

    RYAN "Alpha, we received this letter from Taylor's father. It's for you," my beta said, handing me the letter before bowing and leaving the room.I hesitated for a moment before breaking the seal and unfolding the letter. As I read the words, a wave of anger and frustration washed over me.TO HE WHO IS NOW A MAD MAN Once upon a time you visited me in the dirty dungeons you enslaved me in and you bragged about having my daughter and protecting her. You told me that she didn't deserve me and you were going to keep her safe which was much better than I ever did. At that moment I never, I never said anything. I was hatching my plan and it was only a matter of time before it matured. Today is that day and you have become a loser. Not only a loser but you are less of a man than you were yesterday. You have not kept the promise that you gave to my daughter and for that reason, you are not the man that is fit to be with her. Taylor belongs to me and not you. It doesn't matter what

    As we approached the entrance to the hideout, the adrenaline pumping through my veins was palpable. I could feel my heart pounding in my chest, and my grip on my weapon tightened. This was it. The moment I had been waiting for. The moment we could finally rescue Taylor and put an end to my father's treachery.I kicked down the door, and we charged inside, our weapons at the ready. But as I looked around the room, my heart sank. It was empty, devoid of life or movement. My eyes swept over the room, searching for any clues or signs of Taylor's presence.It was then that I caught a whiff of her scent in the air. It was faint, but unmistakable. She had been here, and not too long ago. My senses were on high alert, my eyes scanning every inch of the room for any indication of where she could have gone.Suddenly, I heard a faint sound coming from a nearby corridor. Without hesitation, I charged towards the noise, my senses on high alert. My Beta Philip and the other warriors followed closel

    TAYLORSuddenly, a voice pierced through the silence. "Welcome back, Luna Taylor," it spoke, a chilling tone that sent shivers down my spine. I turned towards the source of the voice, my heart pounding in my chest.In the dimly lit corner of the room, a figure emerged from the shadows. It was a man, tall and imposing, his features concealed by a hooded cloak. I couldn't see his face, but I could sense the malevolence emanating from him."Who are you?" I asked, my voice trembling with a mixture of fear and curiosity.The figure chuckled, a cold, mocking sound. "That is of no consequence. What matters is that we have a common goal," he replied, his voice dripping with malicious intent.My brows furrowed in confusion. "A common goal? What do you mean?"“I have been sent here by your master to do what he asked of you. To make sure that you follow up to your word.’’ My fist clenched at the realization of what that meant.“We do not have the common goal and he is not my master.’’“Of cours

    TaylorAfter a while, I emerged from the bath, feeling refreshed and renewed. Wrapped in a plush robe, I settled into a cozy armchair, inviting Nina to join me. With a cup of warm herbal tea in hand, we began to talk, our conversation drifting away from the weighty burdens that plagued my mind.Nina's light laughter filled the air, like a balm to my troubled soul. She shared stories of the pack's daily antics, amusing anecdotes that offered a welcome respite from the darkness that had consumed our lives. Her words painted vivid images in my mind, transporting me to a place of lightheartedness and joy.We laughed, we reminisced, and for a fleeting moment, the weight of my clandestine alliance faded into the background. It was a much-needed reprieve, a chance to remember the beauty of life outside the treacherous path I had chosen.But as the conversation waned, a subtle shift settled over us, reminding me of the secrets I harbored. I glanced at Nina, searching for a way to confide in h

The memory of my father betraying and attacking us was still fresh in everyone's mind.“ I was interrogating some of the prisoners in the dungeons last night…’’“Did anything come up?’’ I ask leaning back on my chair. I had ordered for all the prisoners in the dungeons to be interrogated once more just in case my father had put in the wrong people.Ever since the attack I found myself going through every one of my fa

Making sure I wouldn't go anywhere without her and even watching after me in the shower. I wanted a moment of peace and quiet to be myself.Sneaking around the Pack House wasn't easy. Since I didn't want any of the guards to spot me either, I snuck out from the kitchen and out through the backdoor.Being here brings chilling memories of when Alpha Joseph threatened me. The servants were not in the kitchen, which gave me ample time to steal a snack before heading out. The truth is I wasn't sure where I was going but I knew that I needed to get away from here.

    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.
