“I can take care of myself, Aron. You don’t have to protect me.” Ember had to say those words since she noticed how Aron took extra precautions when it comes to her safety. She noticed it because he was so damn obvious.“I’m sorry, Luna.”Ember let out a sigh and tapped Aron’s shoulder. “It’s okay, you don’t have to say sorry. I totally understand you. Let’s just go and find Tracy.”They were still outside the apartment complex. Aron had already checked the surroundings of the building, and they hadn't seen any suspicious creatures. In fact, they haven’t seen anyone. It was like this place was a ghost town.The silence was a total creep. Ember doesn’t trust places like this. Though she had not caught any scent other than the stinking scents of disgusting humans, she couldn’t be so sure.“I’ll lead.” Ember volunteered.Careful not to make any sound that would reveal their presence, Ember and Aron made their way to the second floor of the apartment. There’s a separate staircase on the s

To say that Ember was overwhelmed was an understatement. She was beyond astounded by the knowledge that there was a hideout of werewolves in the center of Rustville, not by ordinary werewolves but the rogue one who was still in battle against the hunters and witches.Ember stared at the girl in front of her before she let her eyes scan the huge basement that they were in. All eyes were on them, big, curious eyes.Ember estimated that there were less than twenty people in that basement, not including her and Aron.The basement was like a house, with a kitchen, a living room, and rooms that were separated by partitions.When her eyes met the girl again, she was adamant about whether she’ll ask or not.“You can ask anything, Luna. I will answer all your questions the best that I could.” The girl offered them to set on one of the sofas available.“Where’s Tracy?” Ember wanted that to be answered immediately. She needed to know if Tracy really did stay in this building.“Don’t want to know

“Why am I not allowed in that meeting? Are you planning something against me?” Veronica’s high-pitched voice rang into Liam’s ear making him wince.Day by day he got annoyed with his mate. They argue over unreasonable things and she’s like a paranoid bitch who often accused everyone of betraying her. Liam can’t understand her anymore. He tried to, but his temper just wouldn’t allow it.“I told you! It was a meeting between me and the former Alpha of the pack, and that is my father. Even if I wanted to bring you, he specifically said that this meeting will only be between the two of us. Can’t you understand that, Veronica? Don’t teat my fucking patience!”That was the last straw for Liam. He was now totally pissed at Veronica’s attitude. He didn’t know where it went wrong, but he just woke up one day hating how paranoid and unreasonable.Liam stormed out of their room and slammed the door as he exited. He was far too pissed right now to even butter looking back when Veronica started th

Together with Aron and Ian, Ember agreed to go to Derbent and talk to the Alpha, Corbett. She had contemplated it for days, and since they don’t have much time, she had to decide immediately.Bringing Ian to Derbent was a risky thing to do, especially if she was bringing along with her a rogue werewolf. This may stir things in the district since Corbett was not so fond of these astray werewolves.Since Aron is the BEta of Liam, they were able to pass through security.Unlike Bresmont, Derbent is a peaceful and quiet district. Corbett, the Alpha had invested too much in securing the district and leaving no room for mistake.Corbett gritted his teeth as he stood in front of Ember and Aron.“How dare you enter my territory with a traitor in tow.” His eyes flicker into golden yellow, then they turned pitch black. His fangs bared and his claws extended when he sensed the rogue werewolf.“We mean no harm in your pack, Alpha. We just want to talk,” Ember explained. She steadied her stance, n

Veronica was pacing back and forth in the living room in the mansion. Her heart was racing in her throat. She didn’t like what she’s feeling. It feels like anytime now they were going to discover who she really is and that she only used potions to control the alpha of Bresmont.“Fucking bastards!” She was referring to Chris. She didn’t like how the former Alpha of Bresmont looked at her with suspicion in his eyes. “That old fart knew something.” She was breathing heavily.Waiting for Liam was killing her. She wanted to be in that meeting, but Chris has got some reasons to exclude her, which irked her the most. She can’t risk it. She was too close now to achieving her goals. It’s only a matter of time and her armies will be able to locate Ember and kill her. She will become Luna if that happens/“That’s right. I just need to be patient. They will find her and I have good news tomorrow.” She was talking to herself while she was frantically pacing in the living room.And then she realize

The moon in the night sky was high, the clouds were nowhere to be found and the icy-cold wind swept the dried leaves of the forest floor. Everyone in Bresmont was tucked comfortably in their beds. Only the soldiers who were stationed at the borders were awake and alert.Veronica padded through the muddy floor of the Dark forest. She was looking from behind her, making sure that no one was following her.Her heart was raging inside her chest, not only from fear that someone might see and recognize her, but also from fury.She hadn’t expected things to spiral this way. The Hybrid King is one intelligent being. He must have sensed that something was going on in Bresmont, or must have spies in the district. She hated him already.Now she needed to go to the dark witch to ask for help.The potion she used to control Liam was wearing off and she had a difficult time to manipulate him now that he has become sober. She noticed that he was always looking at Ember’s photos, it was like he wante

Ember was quite relieved when Corbett agreed to accept Ian and her rogue friend to stay in Derbent and be part of his pack. Though his luna rejected the idea of welcoming them, she really couldn’t do much about it for it is always the command of the Alpha that’s going to be followed.Derbent is the largest district in Devonlaire. The business in the place is in full bloom, and it looks like a good place to stay with all the booming nightlife and the colorful festivities that makes the place more attractive.Unlike Bresmont whose majority of it’s land was a thick forest, and the crowded part was only thirty percent of the land mass area, Derbent was the total opposite. Buildings for business, factories for stuffs and shopping malls dominated the district.“Are you really sure that you’ll be okay in this place without me?” Ember asked Ian for the third time.Corbett allowed them to stay in one of his properties near the heart of Dervent, and away from his own mansion. Ember understands

Ember waited for Corbett in the receiving area of the mansion. This mansion was so different from the one in Bresmont in so many ways. First, the elegance in this place can’t be denied. One look at the paintings and the antiques displayed in the living area, one would know how wealthy the owner of this house is.The gold details of the stairs railings are one of those magnificent things that are noticeable in the mansion.Ember snapped from her admiration to the surroundings when she heard a throat being cleared behind her.Corbett went to sit at the empty leather couch opposite to where she was sitting.The Alpha looks lethal. He’s huge with all the muscles displayed in his muscle shirt and his shoulder length hair was tied into a ponytail, that only adds to the overall beastly aura.“So, why is the Luna of Bresmont here?” He leaned back into the couch and spread both of his arms to the back rest while his left hand had a lighted cigarette in between its fingers.Ember could sense th

THE ALPHA'S SUSBSTITUTE LUNA Final Chapter
Bresmont has been very peaceful ever since Ember came back. Together with the other districts, the center of Devonlaire had also celebrated her comeback.There were no sightings of evil witches or even the remnant werewolf hunters who survived the hunt.Ember couldn’t be more happy now that she’s finally back and she finally met her daughter, Hope. Her heart was filled with joy as she watched her sleeping peacefully in her crib. She resembles her so much in the physical aspect, and she hope she will inherit Liam’s courage and determination.After all, she’s the next ruler of Bresmont, it should only be fitting that she will take from her father.Liam, on the other hand had been so clingy. He was a little bit paranoid when he wouldn’t find her in their bed in the morning and he’s always concern for her safety.“There you are! God, I was looking or you all over the mansion!” Liam exclaimed behind her.Ember couldn’t help but chuckled. She wasn’t expecting Liam to be this clingy. For a b

Asher just stood there, his body unmoving while his mind was still processing what he just saw.“I will explain later. We need to hold the gates, it’s been breached and there are more coming.” Ember uttered, she was frantic. She can feel that there were more bandits coming.But before Asher could even utter a single word, they heard a howl that made everyone stop, including Ember.Ember’s eyes widened in realization. Liam was calling her. Ember could feel his wolf calling into her soul, it was like a pull that she cannot deny.“Liam…” she whispered.And, she saw him. In the sea of crowds, she saw him in his glorious transformed body.When their eyes met, Ember knew that she’s home. She finally found her way home, or home find its way to bring her back.Tears stung her eyes and her throat hurt as she tried to swallow her cries of joy. It’s not time to rejoice but she couldn’t help it.In one swift motion, she ran toward his direction. She cared less about the bandits this time. Call he

Liam and his company were frantic. According to Ursula and Erin, Crumbush was being attacked by the bandits who wanted Ember’s head.His heart hammered inside his chest as he thought of his Luna being surrounded by those thugs. It brought him back to the war that happened a year ago, where Ember sacrificed her life just so their enemies would be defeated.A different kind of pain rushed through his entire being. He will not allow that to happen once again, not when he’s this strong and capable.Air rushed in his lungs as he lunged and avoided trees. He has never run this fast in his entire life. It’s only a matter of time, and one single second that he’s late, it will change anything.They can already see the fire up in the sky a few kilometers away from them. Liam instantly knew what it was.“It has begun,” he murmured as he halted from his tracks and stared at the black smoke that dominated the blue sky.“Alpha, we should continue now.” Liam heard Solana speak into their mind.Liam

Liam put Hope in her crib. She was fast asleep, and though he didn’t want to wake her up he couldn’t help but hold her in his arms before he left Bresmont to find Ember.Hope was a spitting image of her mother. Just by looking at Hope, his urge to find his wife got even stronger. He will do anything to find her and bring her back to their daughter.“I promise you, my little angel. I will bring Mommy back. And you will grow into a fine lady with your mother beside you. We will be whole again, Hope. I promise you that.”He caressed her chubby cheeks and planted one last kiss before he exited her room.Yesterday, Yvette suddenly showed up at their doorstep and told them that she was able to detect Ember’s power.She was able to retrieve her magic sphere from the Lycan King and now, she can locate Ember.When he asked her why she was doing this, she answered that she just wanted to help.“I just want to do something right, at least that’s what I can help for Devonlaire. The whole Devonlai

Asher heard hushed conversation when he neared the kitchen. He slowed down and tried to listen to the topic.It was about Emerald and the other night’s event.He grimaced thinking that it was not a secret anymore. More and more people every day gain knowledge of that incident, and it will not be good for them.“Do you think she’s not human?” One of the servants of the house whispered to the other.“I can’t say that. But given the fact that she killed those six burly men, it’s scary having her around the house. We can’t tell when she’ll attack.”“You’re right, Marishka told me to stay away from her.”“But we really can’t do that since we have jobs to do here in the house.”“I just wished she’ll vanish for good.”“I think she’s a werewolf. According to those who witness, those dead men have huge wounds from a claw. If that’s the case, the Chief should cast her out.”Asher balled his fist. For some reason, he hated hearing those kinds of accusations that were thrown at Emerald. He felt t

Emerald tossed and turned in her bed as blood and cries of agony erupted through the dead of the night.She sobbed while her eyes were closed. She saw it all, the death of these people who became dear to her.She had seen this scenario before. She knew this scene would end up as the worst dream of her life.“No, please….” she moaned in pain and she clasped her palm tightly into the sheets like her survival depended on it. Tears trek down her beautiful face although her eyes were closed and sweat invaded her whole body.She saw everything, Marana was struck with a huge axe on her neck causing her to die in that instant. Asher took a bullet for her and he was hit in different parts of his body. Erin, the poor child cried for help as she witnessed her mother being violated in front of her.“Don’t do this…”Emerald tried to help, but she couldn't touch a thing. This dream was so similar to the one she had a long time ago. And the worst part is, that dream came true, many died and she coul

Kreigstone is a town located outside the walls of Devonlaire. Its inhabitants were all human, and any supernatural beings were forbidden to settle down or even enter the town.People talked in hushed voices, afraid that they might be arrested for talking about the girl in the woods.It’s not a secret that some supernatural activities were happening in their town.Their politicians were furious, the people scared and the outlaws were enraged.At least six people from the other side of the law were killed in that single night, and they were screaming for retaliation.Gasper, one of the outlaws, was drinking his liquor in a torn bar in the most isolated part of the town. He heard people talk and he’s picking up any information that their boss might need.Who was that woman in the woods?His grip on the bottle of beer resting in his hands tightened. He was enraged. One of the victims was his older brother, and he was desperately in need of blood. Red, cold, dirty blood in his hands. And h

The cold water from the shower cascaded Asher’s naked body. He lost count of how long he’s been inside the bathroom. His thoughts flew out of the house and back to what happened in the forest part last night.He closed his eyes and immediately flashes of the scene came to his memory.Gruesome. The smell of metal flew in the air and the stench of death made it even worse.A total of six dead bodies of huge men were scattered everywhere, some were on the ground and others were hung on the tree. Their blood pooled on the forest floor, fertilizing the earth.They arrived at the scene late. Everything happened so fast that when they got there, they didn’t witness how those men died.But based on Marana’s opinion, they all die from blood loss due to the huge wounds they incurred. A wound that only a monster was capable of inflicting.Was it Emerald?He can hardly tell it since he didn’t see the whole thing.The cold water sipped through his body and his bones shivered from the cold.Cursing

It’s the carnival night and Emerald couldn’t get any excited to go there.A huge smile appeared on her beautiful face as she examined how she looked in the mirror.Marana gave her a dress to wear there. It’s a pretty dress with a simple design. It fitted nicely in her body and he smile widened. She can’t wait to go in the carnival. She believed she hasn’t been on one.Marana and her family had been so good to her. Despite the fact that she’s a stranger and they didn’t know where she came from, they still welcome her and treated her like family.She swirl in front of the mirror and her smile widened.“I’m ready.” She left her room and went to find Marana and the rest of the people who wanted to see the carnivval too.Carnival nigths happens every once a month. They travel from town to town. She’s excited to see what’s in there. She has not regain her memory yet and there were a lot of things that confused her, but she’s not giving up.Emerald believed that one day, she will be able to
