Maya’s POV

The jets of warm water cascading from the ceiling immediately relaxed my muscles and made me feel better afterwards. The first time I was introduced to this shower, I was terrified. I had turned the shower knob only to find water falling from the ceiling and covering a larger surface area than I was used to.

I was already used it it anyway. The thing was that while I was in the shower, I thought that I had heard something or someone come into my room. I had to turn off the shower and tune into my werewolf hearing to try to find out of what I thought was what it was or if it was just a figment of my imagination.

I shuddered as my mind went back to the nightmares I sometimes had, causing me to wake up at the middle of the night. That was the reason Asher usually took a sleeping position beside me, to prevent the nightmares, and it always worked. Through the double sliding doors, I saw a blur of a shadow pass by. Immediately, I wrapped my towel around my person and opened t

    Asher's pov We got back from the amusement park and arrived at the house. "Thanks for taking me out Asher, it was really nice and I really loved it. '' Maya told me with a smile and held my hands, swinging them left and right. It was obvious she was bubbling with excitement and happiness from all the fun she had at the amusement park with me. I was going to give her more and shower her with more love if It was going to give me a chance to see her happy and excited all the time because a happy Maya was a happy Asher. It felt like my mood was linked to hers and whatever she felt was what I was bound to also feel too. I freed one of my hands from hers and gently stroked her face while she leaned in "you shouldn't be thanking me Maya, you deserve it and you're entitled to anything you want here" I told her and she nodded before she gave me a hug "still, I'll show you I loved it" she replied and gave me a peck then released me from her hug "I still have a surprise for you" I told her and

    Maya's pov I've always loved the night, the silence and the darkness around me always gave me peace. It gave me time to heal from the day's pain and strength to go through the next day's hustle and torture—it was the time I had to heal. But this might have felt even more magical than any night I've sat and travailed through. Because I wasn't preparing to heal from the day's torture, I was ending the day with more bliss after so much fun and enjoyment, sitting on this empty rooftop terrace with my Alpha king. We talked through most of the night, sharing thoughts and visions, and fantasies. I've gotten to know him a little better and the more we talked, the more I fell more and more in love with him. He was deep, thoughtful, and attentive, especially during that time in the restaurant when I had basically no idea what food was planted on our table. It amused me how he gently took his time to narrate them to me and made me fall in love with the delicacies. And so I found myself lean

    Alpha Asher’s POV. I walked over to the Beta’s office to speak to Daniel. Edna was just like a sister to me and matters that included her life were important to mine too. Her parents died right before my eyes and entrusted me to care for her until I died. I owed her some happiness at least, and I know how much one’s mate can bring a lot of happiness to them. I mean, look at my perfect mate, Maya. If Edna wanted to have her mate with her, she deserved to, but still, I needed Killian to take part in some of the work that needed to be done. As my spy, he had to stay at the Blood moon’s pack and give me information regarding the Blood moon pack and its members and if he came back, there was a possibility that the evil pack alpha would somehow be able to do something evil, especially to my pack and I would not be able to stop it. But first of all, I felt like I needed to talk it all out with my beta and best friend first. And so that was why I was headed to his office to have a conversa

    Asher’s POV I walked straight to Edna’s room to deliver Killian’s greetings to her, but then when I knocked, she did not answer immediately. I knocked three more times before she came to the door and opened it, and she did not look very happy. Like she had been stuck here, just being moody all day. “What‘a wrong, Edna?” I asked her, worry etched all over my face. She looked up at me with a smile. “Oh, it’s alright actually, Asher. I just got up from the bed now, I was asleep.” That smile was obviously fake, and what she told me was obviously a lie, and her face told me that she obviously knew that I would not fall for that kind of thing, but then her face was also pleading for me to not ask any more questions lest she teared up again, so then I left it at that with a sigh. I knew all that because I trained her, she grew up with me, and so I could read her like an open book. “ I came to speak to you.” I said, letting myself in and shutting the door behind us. The. I perched on h

    Asher's pov A knock on my office door made me look up from the paperwork I was supposed to be doing but couldn't because I had too many things on my mind. Maya, stood at the threshold, poking just her head through the slightly opened door while the remaining of her body stayed outside. "He looks so sexy wearing glasses" I heard our thoughts through our bond. Even though I haven't marked her, the traditional way, our mate bond was strong enough to communicate if we are close enough. "Thank you. And you look extremely sexy in those booty shorts of yours" Her cheeks went aflame with hues of bright colors while her mouth stayed open for a while in a how-did-you-fucking-heard kind of way. "Mate bond" I simply replied before going back to what I was doing. She nodded and walked closer to me and sat on my lap. Her Auburn-colored hair was tied up into a loosened ' ponytail. She suddenly turned to do that she was straddling me, her neck buried in the crook of my neck and her leg at either

    Maya’s POVI was just finished with my training with Daniel and I was having fun with some of the children at the pack when I remembered that I was supposed to have a consultation with Tommy and Shalom. I looked at the two little children holding on to my hand, Marcel and Marceline, and then I figured that I would not have enough time to play with them anymore if I had to meet up with Shalom and Tom just in time. Luckily, I saw their mother, Sera just ahead. She was waving at me, probably to get my attention, and I waved back before bending to Marcel and Marceline’s level.“Hey guys. Do you see your mummy?” I whispered as I pointed at Sera. The twins began to giggle and Marcel pointed at his mother.“Hi mummy!” He shouted in the cutest voice ever. “I want to play with mummy, Maya.” He said as he turned to me.Marceline giggled, clapping her hands. “Let us catch mummy!”“Alright then.” I said, blowing the stray hairs that escaped my pony tail out of my face. “When I say ‘Go!’, you star

    Asher's povMaya looked bewildered as she tried to take in the whole information about her origin and everything about what happened to the white wolves that existed before they were destroyed by alpha Rick. She couldn't take it anymore, it was quite obvious on her face as I watched her closely. I didn't think she knew how or when she stood up and walked out of the study still looking shocked and unable to utter a word to Tommy and Shalom. I quickly offered an apology to both of them and quickly followed Maya to make sure she was alright. I wouldn't be completely fine if I were in her shoes, because that whole revelation as my history will also come as a shock to me.I heard the tap rushing from the kitchen and followed the sound, to find Maya by the tap fetching a glass of water to drink. Her hands were shaky and her face was pale. Poor Maya! I could understand that must be hard for her, having to find out that her whole life up till now was a lie. Been told she was an omega, being

    Maya's povThe room was dimly lit and I could hardly make out where I was. I called out for someone but I couldn't hear my voice. I began to panic, hoping someone would come for my help soon in case I was in danger. Suddenly I saw a tiny light form and it transformed into a person. I looked closely and it was alpha Jamil smiling at me, his hands clasped together "alpha Jamil" I called out once my eyes adjusted to the light and I saw him but my voice still wasn't audible"Let time take its course Maya, and you'll know all you're meant to fulfill… greatness is yours dear," he said and with that, he vanished Into thin air. I was scared and tried to scream but my voice still wasn't hearable. I began to panic and looked for an exit…..With a gasp, I jolted up in my bed and looked around once I realized it was a dream. I remembered what Alpha Jamil said to me and wondered if it was a message.Fuck! That was the most creepy dream I've had in forever. Alpha's Jamil's voice continued to resoun

    Edna's povI stared at the hundredth flower that Daniel had given me out of all the flowers he had been giving me for the past two weeks ever since we found out we were mates.It was weird and shocking at first. To find out that your close friend is your mate and I felt like it would be a betrayal to Killian wherever he was now, moving on from him after just a year. I didn't know what to do, I didn't want to reject Daniel because it would anger the goddess and I didn't know if I would ever have feelings for him because we'd been friends for a long time until a few days ago.I was in the kitchen alone making a late night snack after helping Maya put the babies to sleep when he came in. He was shirtless and had half sleepy eyes. I had never looked at Daniel that way but I couldn't help but feel my heart beat faster and my mouth ran dry at the sight of him looking like that.I was also avoiding him ever since the blood moon festival after finding out he was my new mate. Guess the plan wo

    Maya's povI suddenly started feeling like I swallowed an elephant because damn, it was barely ten hours ago I finished my wedding and I didn't half of how heavy I suddenly felt. My weight doubled five times over.Dang!Asher had been busy with calls—answering to people that were still congratulating us and returning the calls to those he missed. I love being married to him. Even though one might think that has not changed after saying ' I do' and since I've practically lived as his wife for over a year now. But trust me, saying those two syllables 'I & do' would very much measure up to the best words I've said in all of my life. It feels so good to call him my husband and hear him call me his wife without having to cringe. Most of all, I am super happy because I finally got to carry his last name and just as you all already know, I'm growing his baby inside of me."Goddammit" I muttered to myself for the umpteenth time this evening after our wedding. "Uhhh" I groaned in frustration a

    Edna's POVMaya and Asher's wedding had ended early today and no party or reception was held because Maya needed to rest. I was surprised at how she still managed to pull everything off, despite the fact that she was far gone in her pregnancy. The penetrating and hideous howls echoed through the woods for the rest of the evening. I stayed indoors as the blood moon appeared in the pitch-black sky. The woods were close to the windows in my apartment. I kept pretending not to notice the wolves nearby and the night overall. It has been a long and stressful day. I couldn't add more stress by paying any attention to the reason for the day. Plus, it wasn't like I'd be getting another one soon. It's been a little over one year since Killian died and I was so sure the goddess hadn't made plans for me yet. I was so sure that the goddess was not yet ready for me but my wolf was trying to prove otherwise—she was craving the touch of our mate.I stood by my window and just stared into space, my

    Maya's povWhy on earth am I so nervous? I've been ready to marry this man since the day he rescued me from Alpha Rick's claws, but standing here right now, in my wedding dress in my bedroom, I felt like I couldn't breathe. The blood moon festival did not happen all through last year because according to the priest, the goddess was angry. But I was so sure about what I had with Asher and that was why I didn't give a second thought when he asked her to be his wife.Although I had suggested a much later date for the wedding, until I put to birth for the very least, the priest had insisted on this particular date for the wedding. "You've got this Maya," Edna said for the umpteenth time today, rubbing her hand on my arms as she continued" you are so beautiful. I can't even take my eyes off you""Edna, is it okay to feel like this.., what if..""Of course, …The tension, apprehension, and anxiousness always turn out to be a waste of time. So get yourself together and go nail it. It's

    Alpha Rick's povI couldn't believe my eyes. Was it actually Maya I was seeing? Or was it just the effect of the few glasses of red wine I just had that was making me hallucinate? I looked around and no one was there so I looked forward again and Maya was there vividly clear this time and I was shocked down to my bones.Maya was a white wolf! It was impossible! I killed them all twenty years ago, it couldn't be… how did she survive and keep her identity as a white wolf a secret all these years? How did she live in silence all these years knowing the powers she possessed and the things she could do?I stared at her speechless as I was still in my state of shock. I was still finding it hard to find my words and question her to quench the fire of curiosity that was blazing in my head as she slowly came towards me with a smile playing on her face. I didn't really notice the smile though, it was the rage in her eyes that managed to plant fear in me, but I soon killed the fear and faced her

    Maya's povEdna kept on squeezing the note that was sent by Melissa along with Killian's body as she stared blankly at nothing in particular while we decided to give Killian a burial to honor him for her sake. One moment, she was sniffing the paper with hatred and sorrow in her eyes, then the next, she was zoning out and staring at an empty space. When Daniel found the body and brought it home, he showed us the note without an idea of who sent the body, Edna snatched it and perceived it to catch the scent of who sent it… it was Melissa, she knew immediately because she could recognize her scent after our encounter with her when we were kidnapped. She had been a mess ever since she watched Melissa kill Killian in her front. She wasn't the cheerful Edna I knew anymore, she didn't eat or talk to anyone, she just slept and cried all the time. I and Shalom tried to give her our support and our love, hoping to make her feel better but it wasn't working.Then when Daniel found Killian's bod

    Asher’s POVTommy and I were having a conversation about different random things. At first, I had thought that Tommy had called me to talk about what had happened as usual, and what had to be done. I mean, we knew what had to be done, but that seemed like the only thing that we ever talked about that had made any sense ever since.Speaking of senses, mine were over and all over the place and at the moment, all I wanted was just one thing. I mean, yeah, I wanted justice. I wanted to make things right, although it would not be that much of a right since we had lost members, good were wolves to Alpha Rick’s hands and all of that definitely had to be avenged sooner rather than later,but now, I wanted my mate. I wanted her by my side as I discussed with whomever that was interested in doing so, and as I pondered over the decisions that weighed heavily on my shoulders. I wanted MayaI wanted her touch, her smell, her presence. I felt like I was about to go mad, and now I was beginning to

    Melissa's Pov.No no no no no no"This can't be happening. I didn't right…I didn't right?" I mumbled to myself, as I played back the event of seven minutes ago in my head. "I did not just kill Killian. It wasn't me…I didn't do it, right?"My head arched badly and it felt like with every syllable of the word I lamented, my heart was ripped out of its cage over and over again. It was never my intention to kill Killian. Fuck, I never wanted him dead. I was caught up with rage as I heard him say all those things to Edna. I didn't know what to do. I was feeling frustrated with every spark that traveled through the screen as they watched themselves even from miles apart. It was palpable…so palpable it made the atmosphere of the cell rise and burn my self-control.I looked haggard. My hair was everywhere and my mascara was running along with my nose but I didn't care. I couldn't….How could I have cared when I just killed the one man I've ever loved. I attacked my hair with my fingers and s

    Maya's povI felt cold all over as I stood frozen, I couldn't get myself to react or utter a word after hearing Alpha Rick's demand. Complete fear took over me and I didn't know if I wanted to go back to that pack. I was still struggling to heal from the experiences I had when I stayed there and now alpha Rick wanted me back there, to go through all his torture! I didn't know if I wanted that for myself and at the same time, I was thinking about Killian.I remembered all I'd been through in alpha Rick's hands when he tortured me and I knew Killian would go through worse, I didn't want that for him. He was one of us and I knew if I were in his shoes, he'd try to save me too. I slowly sat down, still clueless on what to say to everyone as they sat with shock and anger and worry all over their faces."Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!" Asher yelled as he punched the wall. His veins stood out on his neck and I was scared of what he could probably do in that state of anger. Edna was still crying an
