*HERON’S POV*

On our way into the Village, we passed the Aviary Center which offers up-close encounters with hawks, falcons, and owls. Eppin is a quiet flat village with charming narrow streets and colorful walled gardens. Additionally, there are many picturesque walks down the coast on either side of the harbor where to breathe in the sea air, discover uncrowded beaches, or browse its art galleries and shops to find delicious, fresh seafood served throughout the area.

Cobblestone streets, cute churches, stone cottages, well-preserved medieval and Tudor structures, and charming pubs can be found in the neighborhood. The region still has its rustic charm, and the square beneath the remnants of a medieval castle highlights a traditional market every Friday.

The sewage plant is located in the southwestern part of Eppin village. The housing for the workers was situated in the centralized labor quarters. There are fifteen container cabins, each measuring 1.5mm Mild Steel 40' (L) x 8' (H

I don’t really understand why her behavior is acceptable to his parents and possibly the council .. what kind of moral compass do these people have where they would accept scum in their midst

    *MIKAYLA’S POV* Shuffling out of bed, the entrance of my pussy felt sore. The realization of the size of his cock startled me. My gosh! Even when he was not all the way, it felt like he stretched my entrance significantly. Yet, I will not downplay the pleasure that he gave me. My breath was taken away by his breathtaking exploration of my tender inner areas. Every remembrance causes my cheeks to flush with a re-emerging desire. Once in the large bathroom, I started to fill the tub with warm water and added the bath gel to make bubbles. Removing the ripped shirt from my shoulders, it pooled at my feet. Glancing at my reflection, I studied my body a bit. The extreme whiteness of my skin made my blue- amber eyes stand out, looking flawless. Heron surprisingly behaved this morning. I stepped into the water, laid in the tub, and played with the bubbles. I averted my eyes from his body out of concern that I wouldn't be able to withstand drinking up his exquisite structure. Another arous

    *MIKAYLA’S POV* Oh no! My eyes bulged from their sockets. In horror, I watch Heron’s tall ominous wolf pin Henry against the brick wall. Heron’s black, long claws sank into Henry’s neck as blood streamed down his chest. His life was ending right before my eyes. “Heron, no!” I exclaimed, feeling petrified by the scene. Why would he attack an innocent guy? We weren’t doing anything out of the ordinary. Heron pressed his claws further into Henry’s neck though his dark eyes trained on me, growling with jarring vibrations. It was Tyr. He was threatening to kill him, so it was up to me to step in. Henry’s eyes were pulp, showing excess sclera. “Mikayla, you have to calm him down if you want Henry to live,” Amoy advised from the doorway. She chose not to be close to us but stood observing the scene. Director Chancellor ushered the children out of the kitchen into the backyard to get them away from the unfolding violence. The rest of the orphanage personnel try to keep the other childre

    *MIKAYLA’S POV* -Day 5….. My phone beeps at me in the morning, signaling that I have a text. When I turned around, Heron was not curled up next to me. Wiping the sleep from my eyes and sitting up on the bed, I clicked open the message. Nikki: Morning Mika (smiley face), it's my day off today. Let's hang! Thinking about it, I could use a good friend after the night that I had with Heron. Although my friendship with Nikki fluctuated. Me: Sure Nikki, time and place? Nikki: Carter's Shoppers' Fair around 2 pm. Me: Okay. Sounds perfect. I lay back down on the bed burying my face in the pillow and groaning. Overall, Heron is not a bad guy. I think he's a wonderful person to be with if you're the one that he loves. Whatever this is between us, it did not blossom from love. I have to remember that all he has requested of me was to mainly provide an heir for him, and not to expect anything beyond that. Yet, he was not willing to have sex with me last night. Things were incontestably o

    *HERON’S POV* Meanwhile at the meeting........ Here I was in the grand hall of the courtroom at the Elder’s Council building that was designated for detrimental matters concerning the pack. It was located five minutes from the pack house and close to the hospital. It is the main and largest room within the building. The structure has a medieval gothic appearance from the twelfth century. Rib vaulting with intersecting barrel vaults—arches positioned parallel to one another to support a rounded roof, higher ceilings, and taller windows. It has an impressive spire that dominates the skyline, stonework with ornate bar tracing, further sculpture, and slender pointed arches. The setting is similar to an actual courtroom. The room's tall walls are painted white, and there are war murals with the moon goddess leading wolves on them. The gallery is divided into two halves by rows of single chairs on either side of the room and a red carpet in between the rows. The kaleidoscope stained-gla

    *HERON’S POV* "Outrageous!" Charlotte screamed across the grand hall, her hazelnut eyes swiveled to meet mine and a sinister smirk broke on her poker face. I clicked my tongue twice and pointed a gunning finger at her. Fucking checkmate for the red-haired skank. Everyone’s jaws dropped a few inches. Dad was on the verge of losing his shit and growled. Mom stroked Dad's black hair while placing one palm on his heaving chest. Then an avalanche of murmurs permeates the room. Panic tumbles down on Charlotte, its poundage makes her body shake. She runs her hands through her hair a few times, then bites her cuticle, fretting. It was a mess that she left for me to clean up for the sake of my pack. And the same disaster does nothing more than self-destruct her life. "The evidence suggests otherwise, Charlotte," Elder Jasper held up the flash drive of the video that we watched, seeing her stealing the Mafia king's heirloom. "When I came here, I was naked." She lucidly denies the claim. "

    *FORBES POV* “Let’s wrap up the meeting,” Elder Desmond announced, looking at the rest of the council, “We can reconvene again after Elder Silva undoes the soulless spell for Charlotte.” Grandpa Daniel nods in approval, “Heron will meet with Alpha Henley and they will discuss the mafia's current situation as well as whether or not we can obtain the necklace without Varla being our chosen Luna.” They spoke on but I zoned out. Even though I was in the courtroom to support my Alpha and best friend, my focus drifted multiple times to Semani. She looks amazing with pink-glossed lips and faint makeup. Today, her long curly tresses are in a French braid and roped under by an elastic band. The lemon basil and chamomile scent that she oozes interferes with my ability to maintain a level head. She donned a green floral mini dress with a ruched bust with the straps tied on the shoulder. It was well-faded. While she does not have huge breasts, they are perfect. My hands can cup them, and her

    *MIKAYLA’S POV* Day 6………… Heron was up later than the norm. The knobbly, cold bed led to insomniac hours until my body fell into an inexorable slumber. I'm not aware of what time he came home last night or in the bedroom. My planned confrontation to find out the truth about Charlotte was derailed by his absence. I was very heated with anger yesterday after Nikki said her piece. My wolf and I demanded honesty before I let any more rivers of heartache wash my face. What's happening between them? Am I just a toy that he is using to spite his mate? Keeping this from me could imply deceit. Is that why he refused to make love to me the night before? Because he wanted Charlotte and not me. What did they do when they were together? A myriad of questions flocked through my brain. The unruly sun called upon us to arise to commence the novelty of the day that it heralds. Not that I looked forward to the possibility of a hurtful truth. As usual, his left hand lays heavily across my waist an

    -HERON’S POV* Day 6 cont’d………… Silva's cookie-cutter cottage was on the other side of the pack. Her daughter Preya greeted us at the door. "Heron, what wind belt was it that blew you here today? The easterlies or the westerlies?" She exaggerated and did not allow us in. "Oh right, it's that dilemma you have with the Elders." "Open the damn door and let us in," I demanded, unamused. Her attention shifted to Sage and she blushed as he bewitchingly stared at her. They have a mind-linked conversation and she played with a lock of her hair. "Flirt on your own damn time," I snapped them back to reality. In two seconds the door would have been ripped from its hinges. Opening the door wider, Preya moved out of the way, and Forbes and I strolled in. Sage stops by the door to fraternize with the sky-blue-haired teenage witch. Since we knew the house well, we advanced to the sunroom around the back and into the cauldron room where Elder Silva does her witchcraft. The tinted screen of the

    Four years later….. -HERON’S POV* "So listen up people," I will have no nonsense today and they better not argue over this. "Tonight is a special night for me and my woman." I was fucking serious about this. Mikayla and I have been so busy that we hardly spent enough time with each other. Tonight was arranged for us to have a romantic dinner at a resort. Mikayla promised me that we could have this night together. So I met with the people in our pack who have been closest to her and caused her the most trouble, to give them a piece of my mind. "Mikayla is lovable and we all adore her,” I get that she’s a blessing. After all, no one loved her more than I did. “BUT, tonight I need to have her for myself." I demanded, "I'm the Alpha and I'm laying down some ground rules for the both of you." I’m the luckiest man in the world to have her as my wife and these two have been trying to get in between what we have. The male scrunched his face and pouted his mouth, while the other smiled a

    PART 2 - -PREYA’S POV* Zixuan took me to lunch. He’s not my mate. Without my wolf, I was uncertain if I'd sense or scent my mate. My birthday felt bummed and I didn’t want to celebrate. I entered the foyer of pack house. I sported my favorite color today, looking quite petite in my light blue wrap romper with short sleeves, surplice neckline, and skirt overlay. I came to hang out with Amber for a while when a loud screeching was heard from outside. Turning around in curiosity, I spotted Sage’s car with smoke at the tires. Overriding the sinking feeling in my stomach, I rolled my eyes at his dramatic entrance. Giving him little importance, I spun around and accidentally bumped into an Omega who dropped a tray of empty wine glasses that shattered to the floor. Damn! “I’m sorry,” I apologized. The Omega appeared like she was going to cry. Oh no! I spoiled her day. I bent to help her tidy up. “Please let me clean it up,” she offered. “It’s my fault. I’ll let Beta Dwayne tell the ma

    PART 1 - Two weeks later..... -PREYA’S POV* Over in Primese Forest, I sat on the ground with my mated parents at 11:55 pm, five minutes away from my birthday. My back rested against a sandalwood tree feeling anxious and worried. My Dad, Senior Warrior Brian Delvaux, is a full-blooded werewolf and towers over me at 6’2'. He is chocolate colored with wavy black hair and gimlet blue eyes. He had a patrician nose and hirsute, bible-black eyebrows on an artist's face. Mom gave me a reassuring smile, “Honey, it will be alright.” They understood my glum mood and apprehension. “We’ll be here with you through the process,” Dad said sweetly, then glanced at the mired beauty of the moon. The silver deity of the submerged night embellished the still forest with its serene sweetness as we waited. “Thanks, Dad,” I replied, with a wildly beating heart. Because I have witch blood, I feared that I might not shift. This added to my further concerns about having a mate if I had no wolf. The mental

    -MIKAYLA’S POV* Preya and Amoy did all our makeup. They are the beauty queens of the group and they spent twenty minutes painting my face with silver eyeshadow, eyeliner, mascara, and haute pink ultra-shine lip gloss. Luna Phoebe and Grandma Melody, the former Luna, joined us in Heron’s room at the pack house with my dress. “We hope you like it,” Grandma Melody chimed, optimistically. I donned the silver sweetheart neckline, full lace beach backless mermaid gown with a 3" 4” heel silver satin lace ribbon open-toe shoes. On my tight curls waterfall hairstyle, I wore a headwear diadem of white gold lined with 1, 222 diamonds, including the 102-carat pale blue brilliant diamond at the center which also includes pearls, and its design features roses, thistles, and orchids in honor of the fairy realm. Chippy brought it as a gift from Aunt Katinka. Preya squealed and clapped. “You look amazing!” When I stood in front of the mirror, I barely recognized myself. The girls gasped, “Wow.”

  • THE DETACHED ALPHA   CHAPTER 130 - ACCEPTANCE

    -HERON’S POV* An uproar of celebration came from the pack. The tidal surge of happiness and gaiety tsunamis through the state. Everyone now understands that Mikayla was framed and innocently sent to her death. Tapping into the pack’s connection, I felt each Elders' remorse. With a mild injection of sorrow, many wished that their true Luna did not die and was present at this crucial moment of truth. Sage, who I’m still pissed at, hands me some wipes to clean my bloody hand. I glared at him while pulling the sheets of wipes out and sanitizing my hand. “Alpha, I said that I was sorry.” He penitently bowed his head. Solemnly, I turned my head away from him, paying attention to my fingernails and getting the blood out. “Can you bake, Sage?” I scowled. The sizzling anger rebounds. “N-no,” he stuttered. As a result of being under the heat of his alpha, he tugs at the collar of his shirt, which seemingly tightened. Then he nervously suggested, “Maybe Forbes could bake them.” Growling, I

    -HERON’S POV* Today, my countenance has a smiley face. The pineapple tarts were delicious. I left two in the refrigerator because I did not want to finish them all at once. This morning, Sage inadvertently ate one. I almost murdered him. Tyr shifted in the kitchen to rip his throat out and it took Axel and Forbes to pry me off my Beta. They were made with love and it was that love that flittered around my heart. Sage had no right to interfere with my treat. They were sentimental and specially made for me. My Beta better avoid the cottage for a while. Tyr was still fuming over it and not in a magnanimous mood. Charlotte didn’t leave the cottage until noon. Rosalie accepted my invitation to have breakfast with me. In one conversation, a lot can be summarized. To be honest, my decision was made. Naming her my Luna would get the elders to simmer down. There was no use prolonging this further. Then the rest should automatically go according to plan. Demi and I messaged each other a lot.

  • THE DETACHED ALPHA   CHAPTER 127 - THE EXECUTION

    -MIKAYLA’S POV* Barefooted, I was clad in a long red gown that touched the ground. Red signified the shedding of blood and sinfulness. It's the day of my death for the crimes that I did not commit. I had to walk the crucifixion path from the cottage to Davidan Forest, which is south of the territory. With the soles of my feet grated against the dirt and pebbles, I came upon a clearing in the middle of the forest where the sun scorched the green pigmentation from the grass, turning it brown and crisp. The fierce sun's combative photons, which scorched my ivory skin, had no wind to temper them. Amidst the green field was the stake consisting of a tall pillar with a large pile of firewood and stones at the base for torching. All the Elders stood to the left, while the Alpha and Luna and warriors were on the right. Valen was at the stake, waiting for me. Because Heron had marked me, the majority of the pack was mournful. I felt their pain, while they felt mine. I gripped the sides of
