SELENE POV

We howled our vows into the fool moon and the other pack members howled in approval.

We are mates now. He was mine and I was his. I had no idea how to feel about that, but I was always, my eyes vacant as I nodded to whatever anyone said. They were never going to get any emotions out of me.

A while later, I walked to the room that he had prepared for us, for our first night.

Cara had given me a silk nightdress to cover my nakedness after I had transformed into my human form. She had then informed me that the Alpha king had prepared a room for us.

"Tomorrow, I'll introduce the new maids assigned to you——"

"What about you?" I blurted out and it seemed as though my question had started her as she blinked rapidly and then grinned.

"I'll be around, my queen, but unfortunately, I was not assigned to you. But you can always call on me whenever you need me."

I frowned but said nothing as I wondered why they were taking Cara away from me. I was already becoming used to her. I wanted

He smiled as soon as he saw me as he stood up and brought out a chair for me to sit on."Should we go on a honeymoon?"I was taken aback. I never thought of that, but I was careful to not let my emotions betray me. I didn't want to go on a honeymoon."I guess not," he said after a while of my silence and we ate in silence.I turned around as I had a feeling that I was being watched, and to my surprise, I caught Julia's eyes. She didn't attempt to look away as she smiled widely upon meeting my gaze. She was a few distance away from us as she watched me and I wondered if this was al

    Unknown POVI knew that something was going on when she had that look in her eyes again. It was the same kind of look she had the day I went to the conference room.She was bottling up those emotions and I had never seen my brother as angry as he was then. He must love her a lot. Too bad that she doesn't feel the same way towards him.She was like a puppet, the perfect one if I really wanted to get to our brother, and one brother was too in love to want to pull the strings. That was where I was going to have to come in.Not even the others would see this coming. I smiled to myself as I removed the phone from my pocket and dialed an all-too-familiar number.The phone rang for a while before he picked it up."Have you heard of our brother's wife?" I said the person on the other end of the line grunted."What wife?""He is about to take a queen. Now, that's not the problem. The thing is that she is an Omega. You heard about the recently executed beta of the Greenforest Park. She's the da

    Unknown POV"What is the queen like?"She stopped and turned around. "I think she's traumatized and has built a wall around herself. I don't think there's a way anyone can break that.""Why do you think my brother wants you to keep an eye on her?""The same reason I wanted to be close to her. He wants to use her against Zeus. But I have a plan. Your brother wants her to be his puppet. It's not going to work. I've seen the look in her eyes. She's determined.""What's your plan?" I said as I took long strides forward to meet her. She spun around immediately, facing me."Finding out what your brother wants as I feel like he has a greater plan. That's not all, we have to get the support of some of the council members and introduce a perfect candidate for a queen. We need to make everyone see that having an Omega who came from a family of traitors is not advisable as it's going to taint our reputation."I furrowed my brows. It was a good plan, but seeing how madly in love Zeus was, it wasn

    Selene POV "Were you expecting him to be here? When he disappeared, leaving the throne to you?" Raoul said and muttered something incomprehensible under his breath. It was obvious that he didn't want Zeus on the throne."You want the throne?" I didn't look up, but knowing Zeus, I was sure that he was glaring at his brother."You're still quiet today, my queen," Ben said and I glanced up at him. I wanted to tell him that I was fine, but I felt someone's hand on mine and looked down to see that it was Zeus."Thank you for your concern, Zeus. But she is fine and does not need your help."He gazed at me, a small smile playing on his lips. "I want you to meet my brothers.""Brothers, I wasn't happy that you all didn't come to my wedding, as a family. So, I believe I have to invite you all to dinner to meet the newest member of our family.""Isn't she the one from the family of traitors? The one demoted to an Omega?"It was Raoul's voice and I managed to still keep my expression neutral, e

But after seeing my mate being mistreated like that, I couldn't just sit back."Oh," was all he said as he nodded with understanding."I know they're going to try and use her against me, but I will be prepared. I can't let anything at all happen to her.""Are you going to make her the queen?" He asked after a while of silence and a sigh expelled from my lips.I sat down in front of him, feeling the urge to drink the whiskey that was atop the table."What do you think, Ronan?""I think you shouldn't. She's an Omega and Greenforest's traitor. To clear her name will require you to reveal that you know about the ploy between Alpha Haines and your brother.""I can't wait to make her mine when the time is right…""You do know that once the members of the council find out that you rescued an Omega and she is curr

Another information that got to us was that our archenemy, the Redvine pack called you weak for having a weak Queen who is also a…the word is abominable."The offers murmured in approval and I sighed. They had all been brainwashed."But you all gave your approval before and during the mating ritual," I pointed out."That was..that was our mistake, your highness," another member of the council chipped in."Well, I have heard you all and I appreciate the concern. But there is nothing we can do about that.""Your Highness, on the contrary, there are things we can do."I furrowed my brows, wondering what nonsense they were going to spew this time around. "And what are they?"He glanced at the other and from the way he looked nervous, I knew that I wasn't going to like whatever he was going to say.

"For you.""Why?""Because you asked."I stood up, suddenly angry. I knew I shouldn't be, but with everything going on at the moment, my temper was rising by the minute. I had come to see her in a bid to calm myself down after everything that had happened.I was going through all of this because of her. Yet, here she was, giving me one-worded replies and telling me that she was making a handkerchief for me because I asked."What is wrong with you? I have tried everything! Done everything! For you and yet you…" I flung my arms, willing myself to not say anymore unless I was going to hurt her and regret it.She glanced up at me, clearly surprised at my outburst, but not reacting in any way whatsoever. "Are you a fucking vegetable! Don't you have emotions? You just sit here all day, not doing a

We both turned to the source of the voice. It was Julia and I internally rolled my eyes."What are you doing here?" She then turned to the woman."Lady Crane. I never thought you'd be here now.""Your Highness… you're the queen," she said, a small smile playing on her lips. She nodded and I noticed that she didn't bow or be courteous."Here, my lady," Julia handed a robe to the woman that she had called Lady Crane."I am Maya Crane," She said, holding out her hand toward me.

    Brent’s POVThe hallway was empty save for the faint sound of footsteps echoing in the distance. My hands clenched into fists as I walked quickly away after the encounter with Candice. That woman had a way of getting under my skin, her words like needles pricking at my pride and patience. The audacity to question my competence after everything that had happened — after what my men had faced — was infuriating.I pushed the door to my quarters open with more force than necessary, the sound of it hitting the wall startling one of the soldiers stationed nearby. He glanced at me, then quickly looked away, recognizing my mood. Smart man.Dropping into the chair at my desk, I ran a hand through my hair, trying to settle the boiling frustration that Candice had expertly ignited. She always had to have the last word, always had to prove she was the smartest person in the room. And the worst part? She wasn’t entirely wrong about Zeus.I hated admitting it, even to myself, but her insight into h

    Candice’s POVI was utterly annoyed when the news of the failed operation got to me. I had expected Brent to have been more aware and prepared. It was certain he had underestimated Zeus. This was the same reason I had wanted to be involved with the operation and not just give ideas on what should be done.I needed to go and talk to Rodrigo and give him a piece of my mind. He and his men had fumbled up a perfectly laid-out plan, and I wasn’t going to sit idly and watch them continue like this. If I was going to have my revenge on Zeus, then I was going to do more than just give advice and sit in this gigantic castle. I needed to be directly involved with every operation; from planning to execution. If there was one person who knew Zeus as much as he knew himself, it was me.I stepped out of the room, completely ignoring Lucia who kept on calling out and running after me. I wasn’t going to allow anyone to stop me from giving Rodrigo a piece of my mind. I was about to round a corner to t

    Selene’s POVThe day went by slowly. I had barely left the room since my encounter with the goddess. Eleanor was the best guardian anyone could ask for. She dotted on me like I was her child. Constantly checking to make sure nothing went wrong. With her, I knew I was completely safe from immediate harm.Her son had recovered from the injuries he had gotten from the fight with Zeus and Evan. The perks of being a wolf were the accelerated healing, amongst other things. He was up and about, getting involved in the activities around the safe house. He had been in to check on me a few times too. Eleanor and her son had become the family I had always prayed for.I spent my time indoors knitting, using it as a form of distraction. I know the goddess had asked me not to worry or disturb myself again but I couldn’t help the thoughts running about in my head.It was almost noon when I heard movements coming from the compound. I got up from the bed and stepped out of the room. From the look of t

    Brent’s POVRodrigo was furious. I could hear the commotion from outside his office door. I didn’t need to go in to know that he would have tumbled his office by the time I’d gotten there. We all stood outside, everyone afraid to approach the office.I stood in patience waiting for the moment Rodrigo would be calm enough for me to approach him and talk to him. I’d known from experience that approaching him when he was raging wasn’t the best move for anyone to make.Minutes passed as the muffled sounds of Rodrigo’s rage subsided. The soldiers who had been standing around glanced at me nervously. I kept my face neutral, masking my own unease. Dealing with Rodrigo when he was angry was like walking on hot coals and expecting your foot to not get burned.Finally, silence could be heard from inside the office. I stood for a few minutes, listening for sounds so I wouldn’t walk into another fit that was waiting to explode. When I was sure he had calmed down a little bit, I took a deep breath

    Zeus’ POVThe room was filled with a heavy silence as I sat at the head of the table, my fingers tapping an irregular rhythm on the table surface. The shadows cast by the firelight seemed to dance mockingly as if they knew the war raging inside of me. The betrayal of Marcus and Gregory was a deep wound, a knife in my back from men I had once trusted wholeheartedly. My thoughts were restless, wandering endlessly over their disloyalty.A knock at the door broke through my cloud of anger.“Enter,” I commanded, my voice cold and calculating at the same time.Evan and Jack stepped inside, their expressions humorless but firm. They bowed briefly before straightening. I could see the tiredness in their eyes despite their attempt to hide it. Evan’s uniform had little cuts around it, a faint line of dirt across his sleeve, and a small tear near his shoulder. Jack had almost the same look about him, though his demeanor was as sharp as ever.“Guys, good job today,” I said, leaning forward slight

    Evan’s POVThe door closed behind Jack and me as we exited Zeus’ office. The importance of the mission was becoming very evident with each passing minute. The stakes had never been higher, and there was no room for error. Zeus had trusted us with this plan, and failure wasn’t an option.“We need to move now,” I said to Jack, my voice low but firm. He nodded, his expression as sharp as mine. There was no time to waste.Within minutes, I assembled the soldiers in the strategy room, dividing them into four different teams. Each soldier’s face was tight with focus, their postures rigid as they awaited my instructions. I moved to the front of the room, letting my gaze run across them, making sure I had the attention of everybody in the room.“Listen carefully,” I began. “This mission is crucial to uncovering the traitors in our midst. Each of you has been selected because I trust your tact, skills, and discretion. There will be no second chances. We need absolute stealth and precision.”I

    Brent’s POVThe rustling in the control room filled my ears as I watched the large screens mounted on the walls. Each one displayed live feeds from the soldiers stationed at the western woods and the eastern outpost. A dozen men moved around me, monitoring the signals, communications, and camera angles. This was a delicate operation — one I couldn’t afford to mess up.I paced back and forth, eyes darting between the screens. The western woods appeared cold and dark, with tall trees surrounding it, the pathway barely visible under the weak moonlight. The eastern outpost was a bit different. It was quiet, almost peaceful, with the rustle of trees and faint chirps of crickets in the background. Both locations were deadly silent, and that made me uneasy.“Keep the feeds clear,” I ordered sharply, hovering behind a technician. “I want eyes on everything. And tell the units to proceed with caution. I don’t want mistakes.”“Yes, sir,” the technician replied, typing furiously on the keyboard.

    Rodrigo’s POVThe soft scratching of my pen against the stack of papers in front of me was beginning to drive me mad. Line after line, I signed my name, my focus slipping with every word I read. Financial summaries, border patrol updates, pack development plans — it was endless. I leaned back in my chair, pressing two fingers to my temple, feeling the weight of boredom press down on me.How did it come to this?This office, with its dark oak walls and giant shelves of old records, felt more like a prison than the command post it was supposed to be. I was Rodrigo, the man who thrived on strategy and war, not some clerk meant to push papers all day. I was built for action, not for sitting here, suffocating under reports.With a groan, I flung my pen onto the table and leaned back, staring at the ceiling. The progress against Zeus was moving at a snail’s pace. The conspiracy had been months in the making, and while small steps had been taken, nothing decisive had yet happened. Zeus still

    Selene’s POVThe words from the goddess filtered into my mind, interrupting my thoughts. When I had been recuperating in the hospital and had the vision, she had said that a war, a great war, was coming, and the only person who could save my kind was me.The war she showed me was intense, razing everything in its path. How was I supposed to stop something of that magnitude? I couldn’t even save myself. I’m here, hidden in a safe house so I’d be safe. Guards have been posted around the compound to make sure no threats come close. All these to keep me safe because I wasn’t capable of something as simple as that. Yet, I was supposed to save my kind from the war coming. The goddess must have been mistaken.I stood from the bed and walked to the window, staring out into the night. The moon hung in the night sky. It would be a full moon in a few days. I was tired of being hurled up in this room. My wolf wanted to run, to feel the air rush across her body. She wanted to enjoy the feeling of
