Surrounded by Wolves Chapter 67
I was quite talented in attracting trouble to myself. What was with Alpha Liam and his obsession with Alpha females and what did he mean I was not the only option? I bit my lips as anxiety overtook me and buried the rest of my emotions. What did he mean that I would be replaced?! Did he have a line of girls that he planned to send to Xander or insist he mate with to get the pack?Goddess, what the hell was wrong with Alpha Liam?“What did you discuss with my father?” Xander rubbed his palm down my arms. “You have goosebumps.”“As if I don’t know,” I turned away from him.I was experiencing a series of mixed emotions. Alpha Liam was truly obsessed with the whole bloodline thing. Ethan was not exaggerating. For now, he was on my side and if I remembered correctly, he was on the original Selene’s side because we could keep the women around Xander in check so no omega stood a chance. No omega except the female lead.“Did he threaten you not to tell me?” Xander flipped me over with ease. “
Surrounded by Wolves Chapter 68
XANDER’S POVIn a world that had gotten quite monotonous, Selene was my one bright spot. I did not know this until she disappeared from my life and I was faced with darkness. Now, all I wanted was to bask in the light she brought with her and never experience darkness again. She was the only one who made me feel like there was something in the future to look forward to, something fun and exciting, bigger and better than the Alpha title. Recently, it felt like an invisible wall had come between us and we were fighting at every turn. It was always about the same thing, about this girl named Lily. At first, perhaps due to the mate bond or mere human conscience, I had thought it would be okay for me to give her a couple of months to build her strength so she did not die after a rejection but with each day that passed, I felt I had made the wrong choice. I should have rejected her immediately. Whether she died or not would be her fault. I did not make her weak so why did her very existen

“We should celebrate,” Xander said, putting his hand around my shoulder. “You saved us from a disaster.”“It was nothing,” I brushed it off. “When are we leaving?”“Are you in that much of a hurry to go back?” He asked. “Why? What happened?”I couldn’t tell him why I wanted to go back since he hated when I mentioned Lily. Lily and I had planned to hang out on Sunday evening and I wouldn’t like to disappoint her. If Xander knew she was the reason I wanted to leave, he would throw a tantrum again.“You’re forgetting I’m a first year,” I used schoolwork as an excuse. “I have to study hard. It’s not like I know what exams are like so I’m nervous.”“Alright, let’s leave this afternoon.”With that, it was settled and we went back to school. On getting to the dormitory, Lily was coming out of her room as we got off the elevator.“Hey, Selly!” She exclaimed, her eyes lighting up when they fell on me.“Oh, hi, Lily.” My fingers linked with Xander’s suddenly felt like a crime so I tried to subt

LILY’S POVI was going through his media again. I knew that I shouldn’t, that he was not for me and that it was a waste of time for me to even hope but I couldn’t help myself. I was as drawn to him as he was to me.Till now, there were no photos of Selene in his media. The two of them kept their relationship a secret but it made me wonder what it was like and why they needed to hide. Was there a problem with their relationship or were they one of those people who thought showcasing stuff could get it ruined?Thinking back to how tightly they held each other’s hands earlier, I was almost certain that wasn’t the case. Selene and Xander were in love with each other and they were very open about their love so why was it not on their social media? I had expected to be sick of lovey-dovey content on their pages but there was nothing like that. Not even a soft launch not to talk of a hard launch.It should not give me hope. I should not have any hope at all, but I couldn’t help it. Xander wa
Surrounded by Wolves Chapter 71
My boyfriend was the most clingy person in the world. I didn’t think it would be possible to find a person who was as clingy as Xander. Grace was right. He was insanely jealous of Lily and got upset every time I mentioned her. Once I said I would no longer have anything to do with Lily, all was well in the world. He’d pulled me right against himself and one thing led to another, he started complaining of the cold and there was no other option but to generate heat with our bodies.Then we planned a date and went out to enjoy ourselves. I had forgotten all about Lily so I forgot that we already had plans. Plans that I only remembered when I saw her name flashing on my screen. Because Xander was beside me and I didn’t want to see his gaze harden when he was so happy right now, I silenced her calls and sent her a short message after a while. “I should reschedule,” I mumbled to myself that night as I dried my hair.Lily was a nice girl and did not deserve to be ghosted. I planned to make

Was it a coincidence? Did the female lead change? Could I call what happened a setup?“I didn’t do it.” Those were the first words out of my mouth the minute I saw Xander after I got back to the dorm.“You didn’t do what? What happened to your phone? I’ve been trying to call you and – is that blood?” He had a lot of things to say and he said them all at once as he stared at me. “Whose blood is it?” He sniffed me and started to inspect every inch of my body. “What happened, Selene?”I burst into tears. I had been so overwhelmed that the only way I could communicate how tired and scared I was was with tears. The dagger in Lily’s thigh was familiar because it was the same dagger Xander gave to me months back after I was attacked on school grounds. I had hidden it away and forgotten all about it until I saw it sticking into Lily.“It’s okay.” Xander gathered me into his arms and hugged me tight. “Whatever it is, it’ll be fine.”I cried for a long time, exhausting all my energy before I p

LILY’S POVI found out that there was nothing special about Selene. She was just like the other girls who would smile in my face and go behind my back to laugh at me. A few years ago, I had a ‘friend’ just like her. Mary was her name and she came to me at a time when I was at my lowest.As the pack runt, I was always discriminated against and had no friends but one day, Mary came to me and offered me a hand of friendship. For almost a month, we were friends and I’d run to her every time I had trouble. I’d even take on her chores and lend her money which she never paid back. I was just grateful to have a friend so I stuck with her but then I heard her talking trash about me, laughing at how gullible I was to be doing stuff for her and how pathetic I was looking for a friend.Selene was just like her. She called herself my friend and I would do anything she asked but she wasn’t my friend. Not really. I must be a joke to her. After taking my mate from me, she must have been laughing behi

I didn’t know where I was going but I left the hospital in a daze. My legs carried me as I switched off all thoughts and just – I just went. My eyes were heavy like someone who hadn’t gotten a wink of sleep in days but I still found myself going. I just kept going without knowing where I was headed.“Hello?” I put my phone to my ear without checking who was calling.My legs moved as if on autopilot as I walked, cars whipping past me.“Are you okay?” The voice that entered my ear was Bella’s. “I said we were done being friends but everyone is talking shit about you. They say you tried to kill that stupid bitch because she’s Xander’s mate and it’s weird. I thought you were friends with that loser.”“Yeah.” There was nothing much I could say.“Selene,” she called my name.“Yeah.”It was as if that was the only word my lips could utter. My legs continued to carry me, my eyes started to leak and there was nothing much I could say to Bella.Yes, I thought Lily was my friend but maybe I was

Surrounded by Wolves Epilogue
Alphas from all around the world filled the banquet hall making the atmosphere chockful of power. It was no wonder I hadn’t felt even the slightest bit of intimidation after entering this place that reeked of power. I was the Luna here. They were on my land. Grace puffed in satisfaction at that realization.“You did it.” Alpha Liam’s eyes shone with satisfaction as he stared at me. “I knew the goddess would not leave my son to be with an omega. She loves us too much for that.”Xander took a step to block his father’s gaze from me. It was subtle but it was also very obvious because one moment, I could see Alpha Liam’s gaze on me and in the next, I could only see Xander’s back. Alpha Liam laughed at that gesture.“There is the possessiveness of an Alpha,” he said. “Ah, but to think your father would covet your mate. That’s a bit embarrassing, isn’t it?”“Stop looking at her,” Xander growled back.I couldn’t see Alpha Liam thanks to Xander blocking me but I could see his hands as he raise

Even before I opened my eyes, I knew he was staring at me. I could feel his gaze on my face and as my eyes twitched, I wanted to continue to pretend to be asleep.I did it. I opened my mouth and said all the things that had weighed me down. Rather than feeling relieved, I felt guilty. Who would have known that my story would make Xander cry?I thought he’d not believe me, and was even prepared to brush everything off as a joke. What I had not been prepared for was for him to hold me, crying and apologizing. The past was the past and in a sense, didn’t happen. Why did he have to feel so guilty that he’d executed a traitor and gotten with his destined mate?‘That’s why you didn’t want anything to do with me. You were so scared and you were carrying it all alone. You were so scared of the monster that took your life but I didn’t let you be even when you told me to. Even when Lily showed up, you must have been in pain. Y
Surrounded by Wolves Chapter 98
Something dangerous was bound to happen when meeting up with the bitter ex-mate. I didn’t come here unprepared and wasn’t even surprised when she pulled a gun on me – no, actually, I was a bit surprised. I had expected her to pull a knife or to start attacking me with her fists. I hadn’t really thought a girl like Lily had it in her to pull out a gun and threaten to shoot me.“You should have left him for me.” Her hands were shaking as she held the gun. “You should have had the decency to leave him for me. If you thought of me as a friend for even a second, you should never have been with him. You always looked down on me, didn’t you? You thought I wasn’t good enough but neither are you!” She was shouting, her hands vibrating.I watched her for the right time to disarm her. I wasn’t even sure she knew how to use that gun and I wasn’t about to wait to find out. This bitch wasn’t allowed

“Do you no longer want my son?” Alpha Liam asked and I could only gawk at him.“What do you mean?”“I know how long he thirsted for you while we were at war. I had expected that the first thing he would do when we got back was to mark you but there’s no mark and I know it’s not because he doesn’t want to.”“You can’t just go around asking questions like that,” I said, red in the face. “And aren’t you too invested in his – his extracurricular life?”“I’m only after the future of this pack and I’m looking forward to having grandchildren as well.”“A – Alpha Liam!” I screamed in horror. “You can’t – you can’t say that to a nineteen-year-old!”“Is that so?” He looked flabbergasted. “I said something wrong?”“Xander and I are young!

“Hey.”I dropped my bag and flew into Xander’s arms. He chuckled as he caught me, twirling me in the air.“I missed you too.” He muttered against my neck as I clung to him.“Are we invisible or what?” I heard Ethan’s voice from behind him.I raised my head and saw Ethan and my father standing behind Xander. I hadn’t even seen them. My attention had been entirely on Xander alone. Seeing him before me after so long, I just wanted to bask in his scent. I wanted the world to fade away and leave just the two of us. I’d missed him more than words could express but I’d also missed my brother and father.I got down from Xander’s body with a little difficulty as he held on to me, unwilling to let me go. When he finally left me, I rushed to my brother and father, pulling them into a hug. My father trembled as he held me. I held back tears.These were the longest months of my life. Even when I lost my memories and forgot myself, even when I first opened my eyes as Selene after being Jane, even w

“Selene, what are you doing here? No, why do you look like that? Is that blood on your face!?” My mother was almost hysterical when she saw me.Her hands wiped blood from my face. Panic reflected in her gaze and it shook her hands.“When did you return? How did you – what happened?”As she bombarded me with questions, I had no chance to explain what had happened before she broke down in tears, hugging me to herself. My mother was not one to be emotional but the stress and tension from all this must have gotten to her. She cried as she held me.The other women she had been leisurely chatting with came to comfort her, one of them patting my back. It took a while before she let me go and allowed me to explain what had happened.Warriors were sent to the house and my mother started to cry again. It was one of her friends that explained the situation to me.“She left the house a few days ago,” the woman said. “We received threats from the Blood Moon pack and they seemed to be aimed at her

It had become my habit to pace my room. Every time I felt nervous, I paced and I was nervous a lot. The information I got was that everything was going well. There were a lot of casualties but the Blood Moon pack suffered the worst hit. It had been a month already and despite my protests, I had no choice but to return to school. I had only seen Xander a couple of times before resumption but now that I was so far away, I never saw him.Even the college atmosphere was tense. With a lot of wolves from Silver Moon and Blood Moon here, there was a certain tension in the air. Outbursts here and there, people giving backhanded comments to strangers just because they figured out they were from rival packs. No one told me but either Xander or my father had assigned bodyguards to me. They followed me at a distance every day and even Seth had noticed.I was currently pacing my little dorm room which now felt wide without Xander in it. We had scheduled calls that helped reassure me that everythin

XANDER’S POVIt was clear that Blood Moon was planning an invasion so it made sense for us to attack first rather than let them come at us and destroy our home. On their land, they would have a greater advantage but on our land, we would be risking everything – our homes included. Selene thought it was best to fight a proxy war but now, all I wanted was to fight on Blood Moon land because I would soon call that land mine.How dare they.How dare they step out of line? How dare Logan target Selene? If I hadn’t been in the car with her that night, things may have escalated as he planned. How dare they look at her and think they could mess with her? How dare they look down on me by trying to abduct my woman? How dare Logan covet my land and my woman. He was a glutton hungry for retribution.Blood Moon had started the attack this morning. Bright and early, I received news that the borders on a completely different side from Blood Moon had been tampered with. They could not breach the bord
Surrounded by Wolves Chapter 92
The air in the pack was tense the next day. Blood Moon had shown hostility to Silver Moon and now, a war was no longer brewing. It was about to be served. The atmosphere was thick with tension as people whispered under their breaths, waiting for what next was to happen. Even the young children who didn’t know anything were looking left and right as they walked with their parents, their underdeveloped senses already catching on to the disturbance in the atmosphere.“We should strike first,” I said to Alpha Liam. “Don’t let them bring the battle to Silver Moon. We will be losing too much.”I always wanted the battle to pass without bloodshed but it was clear that it was inevitable. Blood Moon had it out for us. The age-long wound between our packs had finally festered to the point where it could not be ignored anymore. The limb had to be cut off.“We should annex the pack,” Xander said. “We can’t continue to live with the threat of such a mediocre pack. Let’s wipe them out once and for
