Alex. Waking up next to Sam felt amazing. She looked beautiful in her sleep. I recognised that fragile look she always had on, but I wasn't fooled this time around. I knew she was an Alpha spirit wolf, a goddess, and she was all mine. Indeed the moon goddess had smiled on me. I never imagined that we would reconcile, but it had finally happened. I snuck out of bed so I wouldn't wake her up and headed straight to the bathroom. Seeing my happy reflection in the mirror made me proud. I examined the mark on my shoulder, it had fully healed and was barely visible. Sam had claimed me, and I had claimed her too. I was glad I wasn't stupid enough to allow Hilda to mark me. As I traced the bite, I smiled because it was worth the wait. The pain and suffering were worth it. Sleeping in my office for three years was worth it. Being celibate for three years was worth it. I was glad. By marking each other, we had connected ourselves permanently. I hated sly Sylvester for what he did, but thanks to
Samantha We arrived at the Yellow moon pack in the evening. Alex had told Robert the good news, and Robert was waiting for us at the door of the Alpha quarters. Most of the pack members had lined up to officially welcome us back. The omegas carried our luggage to Alex's apartment. Since we were back together, it was only fair that we stayed in the same place. I wasn't going to argue about it. I knew my decision to live with Alex had brought him immense joy because I could feel it too. As we walked through the welcoming party, I noticed the pack members had issues with how to address me. " You can call me Luna," I stated, and I saw the relief on their faces. They were excited to see us and glad that their Alpha had returned. Alex had abandoned his pack so he could be near the twins and me. I promised myself not to forget his sacrifice. The twins and I mattered more to him than his family's legacy. But now that we were back, I intended to help him find out what had happened and who
Alex The pack leaders were eager to sit with Samantha. Unlike other Lunas, Sam had a higher standing, and thus she could lead in my stead. We had decided to lead as equals in both packs, and we intended to make our packs accept our decision. "First of all," I began, addressing the pack leaders " I will like all of you to welcome your Luna officially. Luna Samantha will be granted the same privilege and respect as me. She is not to be questioned or disrespected in any way. " I pointed out. It wasn't as if they would dare, but there was no harm in stating it. The leaders took turns introducing themselves and ranks. Some of them she already knew, others, she was meeting for the first time. " We are glad to finally have you with us." Gamma Deborah said. I couldn't wait for her to retire. She was the one that instigated the pack against Sam in the first place. To see how quickly she switched sides made me realise that she couldn't be trusted. She had a fickle heart. " Okay, with formal
Samantha I couldn't believe what I saw. My fight with Mr Johnson had turned him. He wasn't even normal. His eyes were wild. I had to come clean and tell Alex what I had done. The situation made me realise the valid points that the werewolves raised during the meeting. Truly there was the need to isolate the spirit wolves from others since they could turn humans into Apex werewolves. As an alpha, I had created an apex werewolf. Untamed, they were vicious and deadly. Unlike werewolves, they were a hunter's nightmare because they were hard to kill. Alex rushed into the apartment. Nicole and Nicolas were with their grandmother, so I was all by myself. From the look on his face, I knew he could feel my anguish. " Baby, what's the matter?" he asked as he gently sat next to me to hold me. " Don't pretend like it is nothing because I can feel it." He said and kissed my forehead. "It's all my fault." I cried onto his shoulder. " He attacked me, and I defended myself. I didn't know I cou
Alex The next day. We got ready to execute the apex werewolf. I wished I could do it without Sam, but unfortunately, I needed her. She was the only one that could tame him long enough for his heart to be pulled out. The government security agents had visited again. They wanted to come with a hunter but I refused. As much as we were open to working with certain government agencies, we never wanted our identities to be revealed to hunters. Hunters were like mercenaries. They had no loyalty or allegiance. He or she could return to hunt and kill us once the job with the government was over. The thought of hunters made me remember what had happened to me. If it weren't for Sam I would
Samantha Although Sylvester said he was coming the last time we spoke, he never showed up. I couldn't blame him. So many things had transpired between us. I gave him false hope and then crushed it. What we did was bad, and even though I hid it from Alex, I felt horrible for it. My heart still broke every time I remembered the look on Alex's face when he found out. I had promised that I would never do that to him again. I knew I had to close the Sylvester chapter. It was a mistake that would never happen again. I placed a call to Sylvester, and it took a while before he answered. " Why haven't you come yet?" I asked him trying, not to be stern. " Was trying to finish up somethings before coming," he explained, but I knew he was lying. I could feel it. " I want you here as soon as possible," I demanded. I knew it was unfair, but we needed to be professional. Sylvester had decided to drive to the pack settlement. I figured he didn't want to come because he could have as well telepo
Samantha. Alex asked Mason and Robert to excuse me and Sylvester. He knew I needed to talk to my gamma, and he trusted me enough to leave me alone in the room with Sylvester. I knew Alex did not like Sylvester, and he never hid it, but the amount of consideration he was showing him, at the moment touched my heart. I would not have been this considerate towards Hilda. Alex did not need to impress or please me when it came to Sylvester, but he did anyway. I could feel he wanted the man to have some closure, and I was willing to give that to him. " Sylvester," I began, and he was silent, " I am sorry." I apologised. " Why, Samantha? Why him? We could have been good together. You kno
Samantha. Lying next to Alex, all I could think of was my conversation with Sylvester. Too many hearts had been broken, and I hated myself for it. Morning came slowly, and it was time to get up for the day. " Is there anything you want to tell me?" Alex asked, kissing me, and I shook my head. I didn't want to bother him, we already had a lot on our plate. The twins had stormed into our bedroom and started jumping on the bed. It was a joy watching them play every morning. " Mommy, mommy, wake up, wake up," they said as they jumped up and down the bed. Alex brought me a glass of juice, but I declined and got up to get ready for the day.
Samantha We returned to the pack with Glover as our prisoner. The red wolf had secured the head of defence, Mr Reynolds. I had special plans for him. We lost two apex wolves, and eight wolves were injured. Judging by our odds, I knew we were lucky. Just as Alex once told me that suffering casualties were part of our job description. We couldn't always have it all. I braced myself and ordered an honourable burial for the deceased. We knew reporting Mr Reynolds would be useless because the government was in on it. So I decided to take the laws into my hands. He was going to witness what he made my mother witness ten years ago, because of his greed and lack of humanity. I never said I was a saint. So I sent him home with two delta spirit wolves. I had them slaughter his family in his presence and bring him back to the settlement. He would work as a slave until he no longer had use anymore, then he would be killed. We made sure he wouldn't dream of escaping by framing him for the dea
Samantha. It was time to finally move in on Glover. We intended to sneak up on him. I and Sylvester were going to scout the area first then send a signal. Alex had protested, but eventually, he had to agree. He was new to the terrain, wereas Sylvester knew the area better than me. Together, we were less likely to accidentally alert the enemy of our presence. Alex held me all morning. We made love more than three times. I began to fear he was up to something because this was exactly how he behaved when he rejected and dumped me in the human town in a bid to 'save my life.' " I hope this is not you saying goodbye?" I asked, lying in his arms, and he laughed. " You wish babe. You are stuck with me till the end." He said and began to tickle me. I laughed so hard I had to control myself to breathe. " I am just getting pumped up for the fight," he confessed and winked. He tried to make it seem as if he was simply drawing on our mate bond for energy. He did not need to do that for the s
Samantha Discussing the mutation with Alex was easy. Having faced hunters several times, he believed the mutation would be an advantage. He didn't hesitate to elaborate on how fighting against the hunters with only our jaws and paws would be a bad decision on our part. Hunters used specialised weapons and talismans in battle. We wouldn't stand a chance if we are unable to dodge them and attack them like humans. The fact that everyone would be in their right senses after transformation was good news too because he believed that was what deterred most of them in the first place. The marking wearing off after three days was a plus. Although it was easy to explain to Alex and convince him, I doubted it would be that easy with the elders. W
Samantha I sat alone in the alpha's office contemplating when we could start searching our cabins in the woods. Alex's idea was excellent. It was normal that he would think in that direction. He had fought and defended his pack even before his father went missing. He had all the experience and training that I did not have. I sat there wondering where we would start the search. If we would spread out and search different cabins or if all of us would just go to the one I spent the night in with Sylvester. We needed to be careful how we moved so we wouldn't tip them off. Someone knocked on my door, and I asked the person to enter. It was my mother. I smiled immediately I saw her. I had never imagined that I would see her again after that night that we parted in the woods. The memory came back to me in a rush. My mother had allowed me to ride on her wolf's back to escape the massacre. If it weren't for her, I wouldn't be alive. We had run for almost twenty-four hours before we got to th
Samantha. The journey to the Luna Eclipse pack was a bit longer than expected. It would have been shorter if we went through the forest, but because we were going with the twins, we couldn't do that, so we opted to drive there. leaving with the twins was a tough decision, but we knew that Glover would attack the Yellow moon pack if we left them there. It was best we took everyone that was connected to us along with us. Alex's parents had insisted to join in the fight. We tried to persuade them not to come. Eventually, we allowed his father to come along and insisted his mother remained. Someone needed to remain to run the pack. She was to work hand in hand with Robert Carter and Delta Ashton Whitespear. Abel Wey was too excited about the fight that he made me a bit worried. The fact that he could not die was a plus on our side, but the fact that he had no motivation was a problem. What if he decided to switch sides last minute? He had no allegiances to anyone, nor did he have any af
Alex. A week passed in peace. We weren't relaxed, but we were relieved. We had time to rest and gather our thoughts. We sat and planned how we will bring peace by putting an end to Glover. With most of our disputes resolved, planning on how to end Glover's reign of terror was all we focused on. Luna Tamar had kept her promise and placed Raphael as the new Alpha of Rosehip's pack. The Blue moon pack members had tried to revolt, but unfortunately for them, Spirit wolves hated being challenged and disrespected. Luna Tamar had killed off their Beta, Gamma and Delta. The rest of the pack did not need much convincing to fall in line. As expected, the Blue moon pack became the Blood moon pack. Raphael tried to make peace with us, but we weren't there yet. A lot had happened because of his grudge. He had let Rosehip mislead him and ruin lives. He was lucky he wasn't involved in the people trading business, he would have died along with his mentor. Although he claimed he wanted justice, he h
Alex After a week of agony and pain, Luna Tamar finally arrived with a blue-eyed woman. She looked ethereal and beautiful. There was no doubt she was a goddess. I wondered why she was on the physical plane, but I kept my questions to myself. We had moved Sam to one of the rooms on the ground floor of the Alpha quarters. The room was kept cool at all times. I would often fill the tub with ice and place her in it to cool her system. Sam could not eat, therefore, I fed her mainly liquid. I wished I could share her agony and pain, and the fact that it was impossible gave me more heartache. The weird-looking woman examined Sam and smiled. " An Alpha," She smiled and looked at a man that stood next to her. " What do you say Abel, darling. A direct descendant of Selene." She said and smiled, then looked at me. " I don't do freebies." She stated, and I saw a pink human butterfly stand on her shoulder. " Meet, Hill, " she introduced the thing, and I didn't know how to respond. " Hello A
Alex. I was just helping Sam's mother to settle in when Zeta Ashley came to call me. I knew something bad must have happened because we hardly spoke. The moment I got the news of what happened to Sam, I ran out. I rushed to the infirmary when I was told Sam was injured and had been taken there by Sylvester. Elisabeth had come to call me, but Zeta Ashley had beaten her to it. Sam's mother had followed me to the infirmary. It was sad that this was the first time she would see her daughter since she was fifteen and Sam was badly injured. The twins were sent to my parents. Upon getting to the infirmary. I saw Sam stripped bare with her chest down and her back exposed. There were blackish veins around the claw wound on her back. "What the hell is this?" I screamed, " How did this happen?" I asked, and no one responded. The fact that she wasn't moving scared me. "No, No, Sam," I began to plead, " Please don't do this to me. You promised you would be alright. You have to fight this." I
Alex "What is going on here?" I asked, approaching my parents. " Alex Stand down!" My father commanded. It was clear that he had forgotten that he was no longer my Alpha and couldn't command me. " No, father, this is also my fight," I replied and stood next to him to face the woman and Raphael. I saw Raphael whisper something to the woman, and she set her eyes on me. " So you are the werewolf that fights with magic?" She condescendingly asked me. " What do you want ?" I asked her ignoring her question. " I do not want anything from the likes of you," she stated, " You have nothing to give
