Athena’s POV

"You need to loosen up a bit, let us know how to help you," Jacob gently urged, while his wife, Otsana, attentively dressed my wound.

"I'm scared," I admitted.

"Of what?" He pressed.

"I have a wild wolf that can be mistaken for a beast," I confessed.

"I don't think that's all," Otsana chimed in.

"What do you mean?" I asked curiously.

"Your blood glowed when that evil woman tried collecting it," she added.

"What?" I blurted out, confused.

"I come from a line of shamans. I only refused to take that duty because it turns most of them evil," she explained.

"That's right, my wife sees beyond the ordinary," Jacob added.

"I didn't see the blood glow," I mumbled.

"Which is why I knew she wanted to take advantage of you. You come from a powerful lineage, Luna," she added.

"Luna?"

At that point, fear began to creep in. How did she know I was Luna? I was sure I didn't mention that. In the dimly lit room, Otsana's smile held a mysterious glint.

"Not you, your mother," she said with

A thought crossed my mind, and I cautiously proposed."Maybe I should touch it."Ulf's abrupt reaction interrupted my impulse."Wait!" she exclaimed."Only shamans and the moon goddess' descendants can touch it while it's glowing," Ulf warned."I can't leave empty-handed after coming this far." Frustration crept into my voice."I share your frustration, anger is boiling within me too."

I inquired."You and I understand Athena better than they do. I'll venture into the woods and find her myself," she declared."I've considered doing that

Besides, you might end up getting hurt.""Prove it!" She persisted."I accidentally delved into your memory the day you followed me. I know you're a girl wrestling with sadness, striving to prove herself even after her father's demise."She abruptly stopped eating, her sorrowful gaze penetrating mine."What?" She managed to utter."I warned you about the possibility of getting hurt," I defended myself.Silence enfolded us as we continued to eat. I stood up, pacing slowly back and forth, exercising a bit. Ulf leaned against a tree, quietly observing.What pains me more is my innocent unborn child, who suffers alongside me. I feel the baby's movements from time to time.“My sister has alw

    Athena's POV "Thank you,” I expressed gratitude to Ulf.“For?” she inquired.“Coming along and attempting to protect me.”"That doesn't make us friends,” she mumbled, cheeks flushed.“You're one twisted person,” I commented, and we both chuckled.“If we're staying here, we can't leave these bodies around,” she suggested.“You're right. Should we burn them?”“No, the smoke might attract attention.”“True, let's take them as far as we can.”We dragged the bodies into the woods. Ulf managed two, while I struggled with one.Returning to the tree, hunger struck, and there was nothing left to eat.“It seems the animals here are aware of my presence, I can't perceive any scent,” Ulf confessed.“I'm thirsty and hungry too,” I grumbled.“And I'm exhausted, having used most of my energy. Should we venture into the woods to try our luck?” she suggested.“Yes,” I agreed, rising.We walked cautiously, ensuring not to lose our way back to the tree."I think I smell a fruity scent," Ulf said to me.

    Ralph's POV "We've been walking for days now," I voiced my frustration. "I've lost track of her scent," Tala responded. "I can't smell it anywhere." "I'm hungry and tired, we should rest a little," Tala suggested. From her oversized bag, which I initially complained about, Tala produced dried roasted meat and water. "I told you this bag is useful," she remarked as if reading my mind. As we began eating, rustling in the nearby bushes caught our attention. I swiftly stood up, unsheathing my sword. Four werewolves emerged, raising their hands in a submissive gesture. "Alpha," they all bowed. I struggled to recognize any of them, but they were undoubtedly hunters. "Who are you?" I inquired, surprising them. "We are part of the hunters assigned to track Luna," they replied. Over the past two days, I had encountered a few of their kind. "Join us and share a meal," I invited them. As they sat, it was evident they were famished. Tala, being the compassionate person she is, handed

If they intended harm, we'd be gone by now.""Well, there are fates worse than death," Ulf mused."You make a valid point," I concurred.Heavy footsteps echoed down the stairs, revealing the leader. A massive, unkempt figure exuding a masculine aura with rough brown hair and deep red eyes."Why are there two of them?" he croaked."We found them together," a soldier responded.Approaching, he roughly inspected my neck for markings, repeating the process with Ulf before stepping back."The pregnant one has a mate, the other is of no use, mateless…," the Alpha began but was interrupted. "I'll claim her as my mate," a soldier interjected.In an instant, the leader unsheathed a short knife, aiming it at the soldier's throat, who collapsed into his pool of blood."No one interrupts me when I'm speaking," he vented.Ulf and I gasped

Ulf, noticing my unease, gently held my left hand in an attempt to soothe me.“You don't like the food?” the Alpha questioned, his voice hoarse.Fear silenced me initially, but when he repeated the query, I mustered the courage to respond.“No,” I stammered.“Then eat!” he commanded.Despite the lack of enjoyment, I hastily continued stuffing the food into my mouth.“I called you two here to make an announcement,” the Alpha began, and both Ulf and I paused our eating.“White hair, you have an important role to play later on,” he addressed me.“And as for you, the mateless one, you will become my Luna,” he dropped the bombshell.Awe filled my widened eyes as I glanced at Ulf, who shared my astonishment. The room resonated with the audible thud of our accelerated heartbeats."If you're done eating, you may leave,” he commanded. Ulf boldly questioned, surprising everyone. "Do I have a say in this?

    Athena's POVFive years later… As the evening sun cast its golden glow upon us, I found myself drawn once again to Tala's grave, my hand instinctively resting on my swollen belly as I settled onto the grass beside her final resting place."Hey, dear... I'm sorry I haven't visited for a while. A lot has been happening," I began, my voice soft as I spoke to the silent earth beneath me. "You know, as the head of the council of Alphas, it's been hectic, but I enjoy it," I chuckled softly, the weight of my responsibilities tempered by the knowledge that I was carrying new life within me.Bringing out the water bottle I had brought with me, I took a sip before carefully arranging the forest flowers I had gathered on Tala's grave, a small gesture of remembrance and love."You know, I miss you Tala," I continued. “Let me tell you what had been happening, Ulf is still carrying her duty very well. Whiterun is now a full pack... Can you believe that?" I asked with a hint of disbelief in my voi

Ralph inquired, his gaze locking with mine."Fable pack. I yearn to lay eyes upon Sarah," I declared.

If not for the pressing matters at hand, you would have relished the moment.”“And?”“And I refuse to let this opportunity slip through your fingers. Embark on this journey with Athena, just the two of you,” she urged.“But what about Fridolf?” I interjected“Everyone stands ready to care for him. He's no longer a newborn, he'll be perfectly fine,” she reassured.“I suppose, but I'm unsure how Athena will take to it,” I mused

"Very well, you've persuaded me," I conceded with a soft chuckle, the corners of my lips curling into a gentle smile.With a concerted effort, we roused ourselves from the comforts of our bed, preparing for the festivities that awaited us under the moon's luminous embrace.
