THE ALPHA'S SUSBSTITUTE LUNA 80
Apo requested to talk to Ember in private. She was hesitant at first, but when Reed assured her that there’s nothing wrong with it and that the old doctor just wanted to talk to her about being the Luna of Bresmont, Ember agreed.She doesn’t have much choice, right?Apo brought Ember to her own personal space. It’s like an old cabin with a garden of herbs in the front of the house. It was located in the secluded part of the camp.Apo walked towards the front door, her cane supporting her seemingly frail body. But Ember knew better, Apo is not as frail as she looks. She had a feeling that Apo is really old, much older than she thought she really was.“Come, take a seat.”As Ember entered the threshold of Apo’s house, she felt an unusual kind of power. Something ancient and powerful. Her abdomen moved, and she quickly put her hands above her stomach.“Your child could feel the power surrounding this house.” Apo said knowingly. Apo disappeared towards what Ember thought was the kitchen.

Liam was already out of his own mind. He had nothing in his mind at the moment but about the dream that he had. He was blinded by his own rage. All he wanted to do was to lash out and tear every damn person that he could encounter.He stormed out of the room and darted towards the door going out of the mansion. His claws were already extended and his eyes were constantly changing from dark blue to pitch black, and sometimes it would change into gold. It was an indication that his emotions are on a rollercoaster.“Liam, wait! Where are you going?” Veronica came behind her. She was running just so she could catch up with his faster pace.She snatched one of his arms when he didn’t even consider looking back at her.But it was a wrong move on Veronica’s part. Liam was not in his right mind.Without any warning, Liam turned around and his clawed fingers immediately caught her neck, circled it tightly around her pretty neck and slammed her on the nearest wall.A loud thud echoed in the who

Kean hauled Liam’s unconscious body down to the basement of the mansion. It is where prisoners and traitors were previously chained for interrogations and punishment. Kean had witnessed how his father, who was the Alpha of Bresmont at that time, inflicted pain and punishment to those who became traitors of the pack. It was gruesome and scary as a child.Esme held his arm that halted Kean from leaving the room.“Will he be punished?I think he’s not in his right mind, that was why he did that.” Esme was worried for Liam. She knew her husband very well, he will not let this event slide, even if Liam is now the Alpha, Chris was still the father and he had the very right to detain the Alpha if it was proven that he has lost his mind and is deemed dangerous to the pack members.“I think he’s just going to chain him until he’s back to his usual self. He might hurt someone.” Kean wanted to console his mother, but there were no comforting words that came out from his mouth.Esme just nodded an

Veronica, the real one, was shaking in pure anger as she listened to what the dark witch was saying. She can’t bear to imagine that Liam had sex with this ugly fart. She just stole her identity, her very own beautiful face and body just so she could go to Bresmont and replace her.“Do you want to hear the details, my dear foolish Veronica?” The dark witch’s voice was lace with mockery. Her face was telling her how stupid she was to trust someone like her.Veronica tried to reach her but the chains held her to her place.“How dare you? I shouldn’t have trusted someone like you! You’re nothing but a manipulative and ugly bitch! You rely so much on your magic and never had the guts to fight fair!” Veronica spatted the words like acid from her mouth.But instead of feeling insulted, the Dark Witch just laugh at her remarks.“Say the one who used potion in order to get the Alpha of Bresmont. Why? You knew to yourself that he will not even set a second glance at you because he had all his e

As a sign of honor and welcome, Reed organized a dinner party for Ember and her team. Reed wanted to make his visitors feel that they were welcome to his place. It was an honor for him to have a powerful Luna in his place, since it’s not everyday that they get to serve visitors from the other pack.Truth be told, Reed and his pack was a little hesitant to receive Ember and her team. An event from the past had them very skeptical when it comes to welcoming outsiders.But Solana assured them the Ember will never cause harm to the people in his tribe, and that she’s actually a great Luna in her pack, which makes Reed reconsider.They served food and beverages to their visitors, and the whole tribe was invited to the party. Reed was proud that he had such powerful Luna in his place.They held the party outside and had a bonfire set up. There was music and everyone was free to dance in front of the fire. In their tribe, fire was a symbol of never ending loyalty. Loyalty is sacred for their

The next morning after the party, Ember and the rest of her pack were getting ready to leave Reed’s camp.Ember had already talked to all of them at dawn, and they all agreed to go back to Derbent to get ready for whatever plan they would come up with. They needed everyone’s opinion on this, and Ember valued her pack’s voices.Apo was standing outside when they went out.Craig regained his consciousness last night, and his recovery was quite fast. Apo had given him some herbal drink to fasten the healing of his wound. And in the morning, he was able to stand.“I unbelievably feel great. That tonic was something, I tell you!” Craig was back to his noisy mouth.“You should thank Apo for that. She once healed me too. I was shot by those Shadows with their poisoned arrows, if not for Apo and Captain Reed, I wouldn’t be here today. They came just in time to save me, and I will never forget that.” Solana expressed how grateful she was to the Captain of the tribe.Craig nodded. Mentally note

Ember arrived at Derbent safely. She just went out of the car when she caught a familiar scent in the air.Her head snapped and looked around to find the owner of the scent, but Ember didn't find him.“He’s here,” she whispered.Solana came to her side. “Did you smell that, Luna? Kean’s here, and so are the other alphas.”Ember agreed. Corbett had promised her, but she didn’t expect that Kean would be here.Without wasting time, Ember darted towards the mansion’s entrance. She barged inside and ran towards the main hall of the mansion that leads to the conference room.She slammed the door open, and there she saw it.Her eyes wandered inside the room. The conference room was flooded with Alphas. The force was so strong inside the room. All the Alphas of Devonlaire was there, sitting and listening to what Corbett was saying.“Ahh, there she is.” Corbett stopped what he’s doing and went to sit on the only vacant chair in the room.Solana came to her side and so did Aron and Craig.Ember

The first thing that assaulted his senses was the foul smell of rotten flesh and stale blood. Liam opened his eyes and was welcomed by the dimly lit cell. When he tried to move his body, chains clinked and that’s when he realized that he was being chained to the wall the ramshackle gripped both his wrist and ankle, rendering him immobile.“What the fuck! Hey! Let me out of this fucking cell!” He knew exactly where this place was.It’s the basement where his father used to hold prisoners and punish them. And now he was the one who was locked up. And for what reason!“Damn you! I am Alpha Liam of Bresmont! Let me out of this chain now!” Liam continued to shout but all his efforts were futile since no one was there and there was no way someone could hear him. This dungeon was located in the forest, at the back of the mansion.Liam tried to pull the chain but it was all futile. He knew these chains were made of Lockwood and Wolfsbane, he knew he had no power to pull this, he would only h

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.

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.

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 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.
