CHAPTER 50: THE WEAK POINT

EVERLY:

I left the library because I couldn't focus. Meanwhile, Kaelan had aroused my sexual urge and I was a bit honey. One glance at him and I knew he had lost his sexual urge. I headed to my room and took a cold shower, hoping it could calm my nerves.

It didn't help much but I felt a bit better.

I didn't want to go to the dining room for breakfast. I wasn't sure I could handle Kaelan when he pulled a long face.

It has only been a few weeks since we got married and we're already arguing.

Wait, didn't we promise each other just a day ago never to argue again?

Sigh.

I sat by the window in my room, and gazed out at the sprawling forest that bordered Crescent Moon territory.

I had a lot in my mind right now but it didn't stop me from feeling hunger bite the lining of my stomach. I waited for Maria to come. I knew she would come once I didn't show up in the dining room.

Someone knocked softly and broke my thoughts.. “Come in,” I called, turning to see Ava an

    CHAPTER51 : UNLEASHING THE STORMEVERLY:The emotional stress I was going through must have weakened my entire body. Otherwise, why would I just fall asleep on Kaelan's shoulder? Moments later, I woke up and he was still there, smoothening my hair with his hand. “Are you okay, honey?” He whispered into my ears.I nodded as I yearned. “I'm fine. Just a bit stressed.”“Don't let nothing stress you out, okay?” He looked into my eyes. “Do you want to go to the clinic or something? Maybe run a text or two, you know. Let them check if something is going on with your body.”I blushed profusely. Did he think I was pregnant simply because I fell asleep on his shoulder? “I'm okay, Kaelan. No need to visit the clinic.”“Alright, take your time and rest. I have a meeting with Alpha Zion of Haven pack and he'll be here in a moment. I will be downstairs if you need me.”He kissed my forehead and left.I waited until he was well out of my way before I went in search of Rose. I have a word or two

I was afraid she wasn't done with Rose yet.Everly’s power seemed to be growing stronger. It worries me because she's yet to master it. For now, I didn’t have time to dwell on it. Zion was waiting for me in the chamber.I lifted her to my shoulder and carried her to my room. I dropped her on the bed, brushed a kiss across her lips and covered her body with a duvet.“Close your eyes and breath slowly,” I said. “You’ll feel a lot better.”She nodded, not taking her eyes off my face. I left the room and returned to the chamber where I was having a meeting with Zion, the Alpha of Haven pack.He was lounging in his chair when I walked in, and one of his brows arched as he swirled a glass of whiskey. He took a slow sip before setting it down. His gaze focused on me like a predator sizing up prey.“You’ve got a killing machine

There was no going back now.But there was still one problem.Everly.Convincing her to lead my warriors wasn’t going to be easy. She was strong—undeniably so—but after everything, after all the stress she had suffered as a result of her step sister's presence in the pack, I knew she wouldn’t take kindly to the idea of being used as a weapon.Still, I had no choice.I found her in my room, brushing out her long, blond hair. She was wearing a silk robe, and the fabric clung to her curves. She looked… soft and peaceful. But I knew the fire beneath.She glanced at me through the mirror’s reflection, her emerald eyes sharp. “Hey, honey pie,” she said with a smile.“Hey!” I said as I embraced her from behind. “You look tempting.”“I do?” She dropped the brush and turned to me. “How tempting?” she asked.“So tempting I feel I would devour you right now.

    CHAPTER 54: THE BATTLEFIELD EVERLY: My warriors and I left at dawn for Haven pack. We were still two kilometres away when I heard the sound of battle. The rogues were there already, attacking. We all shifted into our werewolf forms..There were a lot of people running helter skelter everywhere, and most of them had already sustained injuries. They all seemed to be in despair.As we approached, the rogues glared at us. There were so many of them and they circled us like vultures. Their sneering faces turned into amusement when they saw me. “Is this what Crescent Moon has to offer?” One of the rogues mocked. “A bunch of warriors led by a woman?”“You can underestimate me all you want,” I told him . “But you won't be laughing when I rip off your throat.” One of the rogues stepped forward, grinning. “I’d like to see you try.”I lunged.My claws met with his flesh and tore through his fur. He sank into his stomach and cried in pain. I was about to finish him when another rogue attacke

    CHAPTER 55: SO TIRED OF FEELING ALONE.KAELAN: After I sent Everly and my capable warriors to war, I headed to my office to sort out some documents.I had a business deal to make with some billionaire humans. Being an Alpha shouldn't just be about running a pack and defeating your enemies. I needed to take the packs under me to the next level. Most werewolf packs lacked social amenities and I think it's time to step up and do something about it.I flipped through the documents on my desk, but I found that my mind wasn’t on them. I leaned back on the chair and thought about Everly. Traditionally, a Luna has to prove herself before she can be crowned but I didn't want to go through all that before making her my Luna.Now she has led the warriors to Haven Pack, and I hated that she was out there in battle while I'm here flipping through the pages of some documents. My instinct urged me to go join her, but I had to trust her. I had to have faith in her capabilities.A soft knock on the

I wanted to probably cover his eyes with my palms from behind and make him guess who it was. I felt pain in most parts of my body as a result of the battle and I wanted to collapse in his arms and make him carry me to his room.However, as I approached the door, my enthusiasm suddenly dampened, but I didn't know why. I moved further and hesitated for a moment before I quietly opened the door.There they are.Kaelan and Isabella.I covered my mouth with my hands to stop myself from making a sound.She was in his arms, and her hands were curled round his neck like a snake. Kaelan rubbed her back, and spoke softly, words that I couldn't hear.I didn’t move. I didn’t even make a sound.I just watched.The battlefield had been brutal, and I had fought with everything I had, nearly losing myself to the shadows. I had bled for this pack, and for the man I love

You loved me so much you sent me off to war while you were here rubbing another woman's back.” Kealan tightened his jaw. “It wasn’t like that.”I scoffed. “Then tell me, what was it like?”“She came to my chamber,” he admitted, his voice growing defensive. “She told me about her past, how she was abandoned, how she’s never found her mate. She was upset, and I—”“You comforted her.” My voice was like ice.“I was just being kind,” he insisted.I shook my head. “I don't believe you. You've always defended Isabella and I couldn't understand why. Now I know you have a crush on her.”His eyes darkened. “Everly, that’s not fair.”“What is not fair is the fact that I gave you my heart, gave you my virginity and gave you my life. And this is how you treat me? Like trash?” Kaelan stepped closer, trying to hold

But then, I slept off.In my dream, I heard a hard knock at the main gate and I rushed over. “Who's there?” I called, but there's no response. I opened the gate but found no one. I turned and headed back to the main house. Then I saw her, a figure that emerged from the shadows, and seemed weightless, drifting in the air.I was left frozen as I stared at her. It was like looking in the mirror. She had my eyes and hair.Her hair flowed beautifully behind her, while her eyes glowed like the moon. “Everly,” she echoed, “I saw what happened today.”She saw what happened today? Is she the Moon Goddess or what?I stiffened. “Who are you?”She floated around. “Take a closer look at me, what do you see?” I swallowed hard as I took a closer look at her. “I'm not sure but I think I see myself in you.”

    EPILOGUE It was the full moon and the gentle breeze stirred the trees, making the palace look very alluring.Crescent Moon has been peaceful for so many months now. This was a hard-earned peace. The occupants of this pack and palace had gone through years of struggle, sacrifice and resilience.Kaelan stood on the balcony of his chambers, and surveyed the vast territory he now ruled. The once-fractured packs of the country were now unified under his reign, and Crescent Moon had become a beacon of progress. He had built industries that now flourished, and provided security and wealth, while the werewolf college he had also recently built ensured that future generations were educated in both the ways of the world and the sacred traditions of their kind.He heard the soft giggle of his toddler and turned to see Everly standing in the doorway. Her eyes were filled with warmth as she carried her son, Maxine in her arms.Maxine was now a vibrant toddler with wild curls and eyes as deep and

What did you go to the clinic for?”“I'm sorry, Kaelan. I only wanted to comfort the boy.” I explained.“And what did you get in return, huh? You almost had yourself killed with my pup in your womb.”“Oh, this is all about protecting your pup,” I said calmly.“Don't get me more upset than I already am,. Everly,” he said coldly and stormed out of our room.A moment later, I heard him yelling at someone downstairs and when I looked through the balcony, I saw him yelling at Owen. He told him he was incompetent and couldn't handle a simple task of protecting the Luna.Owen was on his knees begging.I wanted to go downstairs to explain things further but I knew it would make him even more furious. So I held my breath and wished he could calm down. He did calm down eventually but things never remained the same

He was going through some reports when Owen knocked.“Come in,” he responded impatiently.Owen walked in with hesitant steps. “Alpha, Duncan request an audience with you.”Kaelan closed the file in his desk and turned to him. “Is this some kind of a joke? Do you really think I'm jobless? You should know the rules, Owen. I don't go about entertaining wolves from the dungeon.”Owen bowed. “I'm sorry, Alpha.” And then left the room.We spent a few more minutes in the library and then went upstairs. From this moment onward, Kaelan became clingy. He never let me out of his sight. It has been weeks since the rogues abducted me from the market and almost killed me but I still had nightmares. Kaelan was worried and decided that we should seek the help of a certain witch. But I didn't want to go.I couldn't visit a witch with a pup in my womb. Kaelan decided to go alone. I

    CHAPTER 157: ARTIFICIAL FINGERS?EVERLY Viktor let go of my hand when we stepped out of the cell where the rogues had kept me. The building was hidden in a remote forest and I wondered how Viktor was able to locate this place.“I didn't come alone,” he said as if he read my mind. “There are ten Lycans out there, destroying the rogues.”He led me through a hidden path and I saw a car in the distance, waiting.“You brought a car.” I was pleasantly surprised.“Yes, I know you can't shift because of the pregnancy and walking more than twenty miles back to Crescent Moon would be dangerous for you and the pup.”I was impressed with Viktor's thoughtfulness. Who would've thought that the werewolf’s greatest villain had such a good side.I got into the car as soon as we got there and Bennett drove the car away.Beauty was at the gate of the car, pacing. She knew Viktor and the Lycans had gone to rescue and she was obviously anxious. I told Bennett to stop so I could go down. Beauty ran into

It doesn't even matter that Beauty was always in my room, keeping me company.To distract myself, I decided to go shopping with Beauty. “I need some fresh air,” I told her that morning. “And I'm yet to buy baby stroller. Maybe I will see the one I like in the market today.”She grinned. “Sure. Can I come with you?”“Of course,.you can. Kaelan will be mad if he finds out I went to the market alone,” I told her.“Then we need to take some guards,” Beauty suggested. “Just for protection.”I nodded. “Okay. Two or three guards will do.”Beauty went downstairs and informed Owen that we needed three guards to escort us to the market. He made them available immediately.I told the guards to wait in the car when we arrived at the market. I didn't want what happened the last time Beauty and I came to the market to repeat itself ag

    CHAPTER 155: YOU'RE WELCOME, BABEEVERLY:I felt so furious hearing Kaelan talk about my past in that manner. I don't know if it's the pregnancy hormones but I get easily annoyed these days.I didn't make a fuss. I simply left him in the kitchen and retreated to my room. I always did that whenever Kaelan annoyed me.“Luna, I'm sorry,” he said as he entered my room, a few minutes later, looking worried. “I didn't mean to hurt your feelings.”“You don't always mean to hurt me but you always do,” I replied dryly.I was busy knitting a cap for my unborn pup. Kaelan wrapped his arms around my shoulders and buried his head in my neck.“Don't be annoyed, my Luna.”I didn't utter another word.The silence between us grew awkward.“I'm planning on going for a short business trip.” he whispered.I dropped the pins and turned to him. “Oh I get it. You're fed up with me and now you want to abandon me with your pup in my womb.”Kaelan withdrew his arms from my shoulders and gazed into my eyes. “Ho

He looked too haggard and really needed to clean up.“I will never again fail you, Alpha.” Viktor couldn't stop expressing his gratitude.But I didn't let my guard down.For days, I kept a keen watch over Viktor, trying to see if there was a reason to doubt him. But there was none yet.Perhaps I needed to put him through a test. And I wasn’t going to make it easy.This morning, Everly curled her arms around me, sleeping soundly. I gazed at her beautiful face. It looked a bit fragile and I couldn't help but plant a wet kiss on her lips.Then I untangled her arms and got out of bed. I headed straight to the tiny room I had given Viktor in the warrior’s lounge.Most of my warriors weren't happy about sharing the lounge with the same terrorist Alpha who had seen to the death of so many Lycans in C

Why would Viktor request an audience with me after all the terrible things he had done?I can be ruthless when I want to. But I can also be considerate. It wouldn't hurt just to hear him out.Owen was in the library with me, waiting for my response. “So what does he want?” I asked, barely looking up from the reports on my desk.“He says he wants to apologize.” Owen informed me.Viktor wants to apologize? That's interesting! For a moment, I didn't say a word.Everly was on the couch, reading a book on pregnancy. She looked up suddenly. “Maybe you should hear him out.”I scoffed. “You think he’s changed?”“I think he has nothing left to lose,” she said simply.That was true.Viktor had lost his pack, his status, his

We have duties to perform and I needed to leave before my pregnancy hormones start acting up.Kaelan drove us back to Crescent Moon and as soon as we saw Owen, standing by the gate, looking grim, I knew something was up.Kaelan pulled to a halt and whined down the glass. “Is there a problem?”.Owen sighed as he scratched his head. “It’s Viktor. He’s throwing a fit in the dungeon.”I frowned. Viktor? We had almost forgotten that he existed. He had withdrawn to his shell after he lost all his ten fingers.Kaelan also frowned. “And I'm supposed to be bothered about that?”“Alpha, Viktor has been making a fuse all day,” Owen reported, looking annoyed. “Everyone is fed up with his tantrum.”Kaelan stepped down from the car, crossed his arms and leaned on the car. I stepped down too but I didn't go to him. I was tired and wanted to go upstairs. The way I rubbed my stoma
