Serena

Back in Wolf Valley, our meeting went really smoothly. Alexei talked about all the things we needed to deal with at camp – food, problems, and everything else. Everyone seemed focused and paid attention to everything he discussed.

"That's all for today. Do you have any questions?" he asked more than an hour later. The crowd glanced around and waited for responses. They all smiled and nodded with each other, an indication of the satisfaction they obtained from listening to the leader.

"If none, I thank everyone for attending this meeting. You can all now go back to your daily tasks. Have a nice day and see you all in our next meeting."

The crowd echoed applause and began to disperse, signaling the start of them gathering around the tables to get some food. I couldn't help but smile. This may have been a rogue community, but it functioned like a regular pack. It wasn't perfect, but for those outcasts and homeless wolves with ugly pasts and circumstances, this was already heaven.

    SerenaAnother night had arrived, and I decided to take another stroll, but this time, I went in the opposite direction of the river to avoid any unnecessary encounters with Alexei in case he was there.As I ventured further into the dark forest, a huge bear suddenly appeared out of nowhere. Its fur was matted and patchy, giving it a menacing appearance.However, at that moment, I heard Remus' voice in my mind, carrying both encouragement and a warning. "Stay calm, Serena. You're not alone. Let me take over so I can help you."Without hesitation, I allowed him to, triggering a strange transformation within me. I shifted into the form of a wolf, an experience I never thought I would have. It was a magical and surreal transformation that I couldn't help but fall in love with.As my body morphed, so did my senses and instincts. My platinum-white fur shimmered in the night, and my wolf vision illuminated the bear with an eerie glow. When the bear saw my determination to fight, I lunged at

    SerenaLia chuckled. “Wait, I’m confused. Is this some kind of a joke?”I took a deep breath, my heart pounding in my chest, and my thoughts raced. I knew I had to explain myself, even though I felt an overwhelming sense of guilt for deceiving everyone in Wolf Valley. Still, deep down, I understood it was the right thing to do."No, it's not," I declared, my voice trembling slightly. I could feel my palms becoming moist, and I couldn't help but look down at my fidgeting fingers, a physical manifestation of my inner turmoil.“But why would you do that?” As Lia's disappointed and hurt voice reached my ears, I couldn't help but flinch. Her reaction was precisely what I feared the most – letting down someone I had come to care about deeply. Ollie's quick comforting gesture didn't go unnoticed, and I appreciated his support, even though it couldn't fully alleviate the weight of my confession.My voice quivered as I continued, the words coming out in a rush, “Because…Because I was protectin

    DamonI was in the middle of my work, surrounded by the grandeur of my office. The room was adorned with rich tapestries, and I was deep in thought, dealing with the pack's important matters.Then, there was a sudden knock at my door. The interruption shattered my concentration. As I turned my attention toward the entrance, Rina walked in.Her arrival instantly filled the room with a different kind of energy. She exuded a mix of elegance and allure, leaning suggestively against my desk. A subtle smile played on her lips, intentionally distracting me from my duties as I couldn't help but notice her presence."Your grace," she purred while playing with her hair, "I was thinking we could find a way to... unwind together." Her fingers traced a slow, deliberate path along the surface of my desk, and she shot me a sultry glance from beneath her long lashes.I couldn't hide my unease, clearing my throat as I tried to maintain composure. "Rina, I appreciate your interest, but it's not the rig

    MathildeI sat alone in my dimly lit room, feeling a sense of unease that I couldn't shake. Something was off with Damon, and I couldn't quite put my finger on it. It was as if he was hiding something, but I couldn't figure out what it was.I absentmindedly fiddled with the pages of the book on my desk, trying to shake off the feeling. Then, the sound of a gentle knock on my door pulled me from my reverie. I stood up and opened the door to see who it was.An omega stood in the doorway, her eyes filled with urgency. “The Alpha wants to see you, Miss Mathilde. He told me to fetch you in his study.”My brows creased upon hearing that. “Tell him I’m on my way.”The omega took a bow and left. After quickly putting on something decent, I immediately strode through the hallway toward his study.As I stood before the alpha, I couldn't help but feel a mix of anxiety and anticipation. I had been summoned for a reason, and I knew that my words and actions at this moment could have a major impact

    Rina/ToriI turned to face my mother, a mix of frustration and resignation in my eyes. "Do I really have to wear this dress? It's... well, it's a bit much."She looked me up and down, seemingly unbothered by my discomfort. "Rina, my dear, you must understand. You will be meeting the Alpha and must make a good impression all the time. The Alpha appreciates style and sophistication. Now, be a good girl and put on that dress. It's the latest trend among the elites."I bit my lip, wanting to argue but knowing it would be futile. Instead, I muttered, "Fine, I'll wear it."With a satisfied smile, my mother turned her attention back to whatever she was doing, leaving me with no choice but to comply with her wishes. The dress was a bit too revealing for my taste, especially around the chest area. But of course, my mother dismissed my concerns with a casual remark about it being the latest fashion favored by the elites. I had long grown accustomed to my mother's control over every aspect of my

    SerenaAs we sprinted through the dense woods, the wind whipping past my face, I couldn't help but feel the adrenaline coursing through my veins. The familiar scent of the Blood Rose Pack was getting stronger with every step we took, and memories began to flood my mind, each one a haunting echo of the past.“Are you ready to see him?” a voice echoed inside my head. It was Remus, probably sensing the nerve I was feeling. “I…I don’t know,” I responded with honesty.But who am I kidding? Knowing that ever since I decided to come to this pack again, my heart raced every time I envisioned his reaction upon laying eyes on me after all this time. Would he even recognize me? What if he doesn’t? Am I ready to endure another possible rejection from him?After all, he allowed my sister to pose as me. And despite the explanation provided by Ashford about what really happened, I couldn’t shake the thought of him betraying me.“What about your sister and stepmother? Are you ready to confront them?

Did I really hear my father introduce Rina or Tori as her true identity to the crowd as his new bride?The surprise I felt was unlike anything I had ever experienced in my entire life.

    SerenaAfter the announcement, Ashford hurried to secure a place for both Alexei and me. It was a cabin with a small kitchen and two rooms designated for us. After witnessing the unfolding events, we all agreed it was best to settle down for a moment and consider our next steps. The news of Tori's impending marriage to Alpha Roman had completely altered our plans.Ashford gestured towards the cozy kitchen, attempting to ease the tension. "Make yourselves at home. I've stocked the kitchen with supplies, so you won't go hungry. Tomorrow, I will bring more supplies, such as clean clothes and toiletries."

    SerenaIt had been three years since Damon became the Alpha of the Blood Rose Pack.“That’s all for today. You can now go.”The members of the council nodded their heads as they took their leave. We had just concluded our quarterly meeting, and things were going great so far with the pack.As the Luna, my main task was overseeing the departments, making sure things were running as smoothly as possible. With Damon dealing mainly with pack security and our vassals, administrative tasks were left to my care. It wasn’t easy, especially with a bunch of paperwork involved, yet over time, I learned to get the hang of it.As I was fixing my things, I noticed a white envelope containing an invitation. It was from Alexei and Tori. Little Oliver and Rina were celebrating their third birthday tomorrow, and as their godmother, I wouldn't miss it for the world. In fact, I had already bought gifts for them, which I was excited to give.Just the

    Tori’s POV"Where's your Alpha, Ollie? He promised to stick by me, but he's nowhere in sight!" I complained to the Beta of Wolf Valley, holding my big belly that looked like I'd swallowed a watermelon. No surprise, 'cause I'm carrying Alexei’s twins."Chill, Tori! The Alpha will be here soon. He's on his way," Ollie reassured, though he looked pale and about to faint."Goddess, I'm gonna give that guy a piece of my mind! Swear to the moon deity, never sleeping with him again!" I said, feeling another pain. Lia, my sweet sister-in-law, helped me sit."My nephews are ready to meet the world, Tori. Let me help you deliver them," Lia encouraged, touching my belly. Tears filled my eyes as I looked at her. I gritted my teeth through the pain. My twins wanted out, but I wouldn't let them out until their dad was here. We promised each other that he would be by my side during my delivery. But where the heck was he?"Come on, Tori. Don't be stubborn. Your

    Serena"I hereby convene the official council meeting of the Blood Rose Pack."The moment Damon's authoritative voice echoed through the room, every pair of eyes shifted towards him, signaling the commencement of the assembly. I couldn't help but feel a surge of pride witnessing him in action, orchestrating the council with a confidence that reflected his newfound status as the alpha."I sent a notice to all council members on time, and it will be kept as part of today's meeting records. Lannie, do we have enough members for a quorum?" Damon asked, looking at his secretary.She nodded in confirmation, presenting a folder containing the details of the agenda for today. I noticed that everyone already had their copies neatly arranged before Damon's arrival. As he perused the contents, Lannie began reciting the names of the council members, a routine task in these gatherings.Even though Damon had led many council meetings before, today felt different.

    SerenaI hurried to the location of Moonlight Hills, almost stumbling over the rocks beneath my feet. Time was running out, and I needed to reach the site before it was too late. The Trial of the Moon was expected to end in death, and while I hoped it would be Romin, a part of me worried for Damon.“Hurry, Serena! Damon needs you!” The voice of my wolf echoed in my head, adding to the weight of my concern. The twilight's cold breeze stung my skin, but the chill inside me was more unsettling. I shouldn't have left Damon. I shouldn't have abandoned him when he was lost and needed me the most.What if it's too late to reach him now?Tears threatened to escape, and I hastily wiped them away. Running down the hill, I resisted the urge to let out a loud sob. This wasn't the time to cry. Blood Rose needed me, and I was determined not to let them down.Climbing a large boulder, I tried to witness the ongoing fight. Scanning the ground, I spotted the pack. People clustered tog

    DamonEarlier today, I asked the moon goddess earnestly to show us kindness. I begged her to free the Blood Rose pack from Romin's control. Now, I was in this situation, and I could no longer turn my back.We were in a very special place, Moonlight Hills, where our ancestors used to settle their problems under the Trial of the Moon. The people of Blood Rose gathered to watch this fight, knowing it would only end when one of us was no longer alive. But I didn't feel bad about it. Romin had done many bad things in his life, and just sending him away or putting him in prison wouldn't be enough. Taking away what he wanted the most, the Alpha seat of Blood Rose, seemed like a fair way to seek justice. But of course, the plan was to kill him, knowing that he would continue to torment our lives if I would let him live after this.Finally, a shofar, an instrument made from a ram's horn, was blown, the signal we were waiting for to start the fight.Romin's transformation into his

    SerenaAs I ran, tears streamed down my face, blurring my vision. The family I hoped would love me had shattered my world, revealing their role in making my life feel like a living nightmare.Beta Janus, once a figure I considered a father, now fueled my hatred. He separated me and my mom from our group, leading us to the sinister Mathide, the source of all my troubles. Then there was Romin, driven by a relentless desire for power, who betrayed his own twin, causing chaos, especially for Damon and our pack. Thoughts of them stirred a potent hatred within me.Amidst this turmoil, I couldn't contain my emotions any longer. I shouted, causing Ashford and the other she-wolves with me to halt. Power surged through me, and Remus, the eerie voice in my head, smiled.“You’re ready, Serena. It is time to claim your destiny,” he whispered with pride. The words only fueled my desire, and I couldn't help but be thankful for him.Still in our wolf form,

    DamonThe Trial of the Moon, an ancient rite, held the promise of revelation through a fight to the death among wolves. It was an old way to settle disputes between high-ranking wolves, and the last of its kind was done almost 300 years ago.Romin, with a scoff, ridiculed the gravity of the tradition.“The Trial of the Moon? You want to settle this matter through that ancient tradition?” he mocked, his laughter echoing through the stillness.Erik, a former Delta, stood unwavering in his defense. “Why not? If that is the only way for your treachery to be discovered. Under this trial, the moon goddess will surely favor that one that is telling the truth. And I am confident that after this, Damon will emerge victorious.”Romin's amusement soured, replaced by impatience. “Joke time’s over. Time to end this madness.” He signaled his men to attack, plunging the surroundings into an imminent clash.As the tension in th

    DamonRomin's sneer deepened, his eyes gleaming with a cunning spark. He poked at me, stirring up the already charged atmosphere."Your father? But I am your father. I didn’t steal anything from you. In fact, you owed me everything, even your life."I felt a surge of anger and disbelief, my fists clenching involuntarily. Romin's manipulation cut deep, and the crowd's murmur intensified, torn between allegiance and doubt. His deceitful words echoed in my ears, adding a layer of personal betrayal to the growing conflict.The crowd buzzed with confusion; conversations exchanged like hidden secrets. I retorted, a self-assured smirk dancing on my lips, "I am not mistaken, FATHER. Or should I say, Uncle Romin?"The words lingered, like a sudden jolt of electricity zipping through the group. The onlookers wore expressions of curiosity, their eyes reflecting unspoken questions bouncing around in their minds. Some, more seasoned, pieced together the puzzle fast

    AlexeiThe night air was thick with tension as we stormed the pack house. Shadows danced along the walls as we moved swiftly, with our mission occupying our thoughts. Damon, determined as ever, began his climb to the balcony where Romin awaited.I could hear the echoes of my wolf spirit, a growling reminder of the atrocities Romin had committed. The desire to personally punish him burned within me, but I knew it was Damon's right, given the role Romin played in his tragic past.I found myself in the west wing, facing down guards one floor below the impending confrontation. The clash of fur and fang echoed in the air, punctuated by the occasional howl and the thud of bodies hitting the floor under the silence of the night. The plan was clear – my team and I had decided to scatter, each of us taking a different route to maximize the chaos and take down as many guards as possible.As I maneuvered through the dimly lit corridors of the west wing, I encountered
