I hope you enjoyed reading this book. Thank you! Please leave s review.
ScarlettThe mood changed as we approached the last cell. The same one they locked me in when Thiery and Jasper found me. "I'm sorry I put you through that." Jax started when my steps began to falter."I forgave that baby... It's just that I'm not sure I want to see her. This..." I gestured at my shaky legs and rapidly rising and falling chest. "Is because of what she did." I concluded."I am here; I will always be here. So go in there and give her a piece of your mind before she's taken for sentencing. When you can't take it, think about my cum dripping between your thighs." I swallowed thickly, closed my eyes, and took a deep, calming breath. As Jax opened the cell door for me, my mother snapped her face towards the door. She looked frail, her eyes sunken with dark circles under them. She reeked of urine and damp moisture, just like the cell.Jax motioned for me to enter, but I insisted that he accompany me. I didn't know what I was capable of now that even my finger tips began to
(9 months Later)Third person's POVAlpha Jaxon stomped into the delivery room, eyes frantically searching for his mate. His eyes finally fell on Scarlett, who was writhing on the bed, grunting in pain as Astra soothed her. The doctors and two traditional healers stilled, their wolves recognizing their alpha."You shouldn't be here, alpha." One of the doctors explained, swallowing thickly when the alpha growled."My love." He called his mate, pushing the doctor out of the way."J-jax." Scarlett moaned, a scream of agony passing through her parted mouth when another contraction hit."Babe I'm so sorry I wasn't here sooner." He knelt beside her on the bed, taking her hand into his. Jaxon had been at his other pack, alpha Silas's former pack. After killing Silas, he automatically became the alpha. Because of so much work, he had appointed Jasper to lead the pack as an alpha, who reported to Jax. His work was to just go check on things once in a while. He had been there when Scarlett's la
15 years laterSetting: Starfall PackDraven Fox (Scarlett and Jaxon's son)"Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Alpha Nathan Grant and the mate of his choosing, Melody Reese." I snapped my eyes toward the stage, putting my phone away."Mate of his choosing?" I raised my brows, turning to look at my mother, who was seated beside me, and my father on my other side. We had been invited to attend the introduction ceremony of alpha Nathan of the Starfall pack and his mate."Yes, Nathan hasn't had any luck in finding his fated mate, so he chose a girl in his pack to become the luna." My mother explained in a whisper, staring right ahead."What if the girl has a mate? What happens when she finally finds him?" My curiosity was piqued, and for some reason, my wolf started becoming jittery. He pushed, wanting to go out for a run."Nothing son." My father, Alpha Jax, chimed in. "Once Nathan marks her, then he will own her, and not even her own mate will be able to take her away from him." I did
Setting: Starfall PackMelody ReeseMy trembling hands were cuffed on the steel dance pole, which was fixed in the middle of the room. I could feel alpha Nathan behind me, approaching in slow, almost calculated steps—like a predator. Then I heard it—the loud crack of the whip he held in his hand as he lashed it in the air. I had heard the sound multiple times, and yet I still flinched in reflex every time."Something wrong, Melody? Don't tell me you're afraid of the whip now..." He finally broke the tense silence with his malicious voice, which had an undertone of mockery. I could hear the slow, dragging beat of my heart as he leaned over, his warm breath fanning my exposed neck. My hair was tied neatly in a bun as an order from him. He hated it when the strands got in his way, and when they did, he would pull them and leave my scalp burning."Look at you, trembling like a leaf, yet you disobeyed me by talking to that sorry alpha." He trailed his hand along my neck before moving along
Setting: Yellow Moon PackLater that night DravenI watched as Nova, my female beta, and my fuckmate gave me a strip show, swaying her hips. Seated in my father's swivel chair in his office, I couldn't wait to forget about my so called fated mate after that brief encounter. What better way to do that than by fucking the hottest she-wolf in the pack?Nova walked around the table after she was left in her lingerie, biting her lip. I was already hard for her; I had to shift on the chair to adjust my cock. "You came so fast." I spoke in a low voice, beckoning her closer to me with my index finger."You called, and I missed feeling you inside of me." She whispered in a sensual voice, buttoning my white shirt. I put my hand on hers to stop her; I couldn't wait any longer. She stood beside the chair, her eyebrows furrowing as she withdrew her hands."Bend over." I instructed, standing up while I unbuckled my belt. I caught a glimpse of her face as it lit up before she turned and did as I as
Setting: Starfall PackMelody ReeseI put on a phony smile for the pack members I met on the way as I headed to the healers' place. Every time I took a step, I groaned several times and gulped while trying to play it cool. Despite the fact that the wounds had already closed up, my back was still hurting. I healed more quickly than typical werewolves, which I found difficult to wrap my mind around. To avoid running into Alpha Nathan or any of his whores, I walked the long way.The last thing I wanted was to deal with jealous she-wolves for something that I didn't even ask for in the first place. "Where are you going unguarded, so early in the morning?" My friend Mason jumped me, catching me off guard as I took the last corner towards the healer's house."Jeez Mace, you just can't jump on someone like that!" I put my hand on my chest, feeling my heart palpitate a little bit faster."Why not? I'm an excellent tracker. The first lesson I was taught was to make sure I couldn't be detected
Setting: Starfall PackMelody ReeseThe moment Lilith presented a small, clear bottle of a boiled, deep brownish liquid, my whole body froze. That was it—my goodbye to any hope of ever breastfeeding. I didn't want to admit that it was a rushed decision, a path that I was forced to take to preserve my sanity."Are you sure about this?" We were in her basement, where she hid her most dangerous herbs. Despite it being dark, I could see everything clearly. There were stacks of boxes everywhere, small bottles arranged on dusty shelves, and so many other things I had no idea what they were. I finally looked at the older woman, wiping my wet cheeks with the back of my shaky hand."I have to." My voice was thick with emotion and barely a whisper, even though I had tried to make it as firm as I could. With a single nod from Lilith, I said thank you before exiting her basement. I took the first sip the moment I got to the living room, clearing my throat when it burned. I couldn't stop the sputt
Setting: Yellow Moon PackDraven FoxI paced in my parents' living room, waiting for my mother to come down the stairs. I needed clarity on the issue my father had told me since I hadn't slept a wink. "You don't look so good, honey. You didn't get any sleep, did you?" My mother had already analyzed me even before she got closer to me.I breathed out loudly, refusing to break down when I was going to be the alpha in 12 days. "I'm fine." I lied, pocketing my hands to avoid running them through my hair."Talk to me, Draven. Is it about what your father told me?" I looked at her briefly before fixing my gaze on my grandfather's portrait on the opposite wall."Don't give me that look; of course he told me. There are little to no secrets between mates, my son—something you would know if you had just accepted her. You would understand what I am talking about." She chastised, pulling me down for a hug. Her short stature wasn't to be joked around with though; she became vicious when the need a
Third POVTwo Years LaterDraven and Melody heaved consecutive sighs of relief after their twins finally fell asleep. They had tried everything for hours to get Astra Mae Fox and her brother Knox to sleep, including massage, swaying, and singing lullabies. Only when they contacted Scarlett did they get a complete guide, which worked within minutes. Now they had to tiptoe around and make little to no noise, so the twins couldn't wake up."Stubborn babies." Draven whined in a low voice, sleeping on his back on their bed, eyes tightly closed."I almost cried." Melody confessed, making Draven chuckle lightly, before he got a slap on his arm."Lower your voice. If you wake them up, I swear I will run out of this house and leave you alone with them." Melody sternly stated in a low voice, glaring at Draven as she lied beside him."I didn't think putting a baby to sleep would be so haard." Draven exaggerated the word 'hard' making Melody roll her eyes even though she knew so well what he was
Melody Reese"Mmh." Draven swallowed my low moan in the kiss, deepening it and making my heart beat fiercely. His lips were salty sweet, moving against my cold ones, warming them as the intensity increased. It felt like days since we had a true slow kiss without any worry of lurking enemies or evil plans being plotted against us. His fingers combed through my hair, his touch completely pulling me into a pool of desire."Goddess, you taste so good." He rasped against my lips when he pulled away, his eyes roaming over my face."And you look so inviting right now." He added in an evident rasp, using his other hand to swipe a thumb gently over my lower lip. I was at a loss for words, just drinking in his riveting features and wanting more of him."I would have loved to fuck you right here right now, but..." He trailed off."But?" I raised an eyebrow, almost challengingly, as I shifted on the hospital bed."We are in the infirmary, in one of the check-up rooms." He clarified, looking aroun
Draven FoxI couldn't count how many handshakes and condolences I received from my pack members after the ceremony. My mother had whisked Melody away the moment it was all over, leaving me to interact on their behalf, citing that stress wasn't good for Melody. There was still a part of me that didn't want to accept that nana was gone and that it could have been prevented. Had I listened to Melody from the start about not trusting Jones with Mercy, Astra would still be alive."You cannot blame yourself when fate happens." My father's voice invaded my mind, snapping me back to reality. It looked like I had greeted the last few pack members absentmindedly."I am not blaming myself." I replied in a harsh tone, pocketing my hands in my slacks."I know you, son; I can see it written on your face." He insisted.I sighed, "Fine. But can you judge me, though? I was supposed to know something wasn't right with Jones the moment he started conniving against us." I pulled out my hand from my pocke
Melody ReeseDespite every attempt to keep Draven off my mind, the state of his mom, and Jones all together, I still found myself pacing around in the sitting room. My eyes kept darting toward the front door, praying for my mate to push it open. As if the goddess had decided to respond to my prayers instantly, the door knob moved. I halted, folding my hands together as if saying thank you, and looked as the oaken door was pushed open."Draven!" I squealed, running toward him when he finally stepped in, a very large, telling smile gracing his handsome face. He spread his arms, but before I threw myself on him, a scent, even though weaker than his usual masculine one, hit my nostrils. I put on breaks, standing just a few steps from him as my eyes roamed around his body, inspecting him for any injuries."Melody?" His brows shot up, his shoulders rising up in question."Is he..." I trailed off after the realization that it wasn't his blood dawned on me. A relief washed over me as I exhale
Draven FoxAfter cutting the mind link with an overly excited Melody after hearing the news of where Jones was, we spread out. We planned to approach Mercy's home from different directions so that if Jones escaped, we would have extremely high chances of catching him. It was a solid plan, one that we kept just between the three of us, Holden, Mason, and me. I wasn't about to tell my warriors and risk Jones getting wind of it. At that moment, he was an enemy—a dangerous, traitorous one that needed to be tamed."How come Mercy's parents just let him stay there?" Mason asked via the mind link, positioned a few meters north of the two-story house."They are not there. They left the pack the moment they heard what their daughter had done," I answered, crouching low behind tall grass a few steps after the tree line on the back of the house. The lights were off, and except for sounds made by small animals, it was extremely silent. That meant that we had to be extra stealthy; otherwise, Jones
Melody ReeseI threw the covers off and sat up, putting my hands above my head. Time seemed to have stagnated; the howls subsided, and uncomfortable silence reigned. I didn't know how long I had slept, but there was still daylight streaming through the window. My heart was still heavy, and I could feel the puffiness around my eyes without even touching or looking. It was still surreal how so much chaos could take place in just one day.Throwing my legs over the edge of the bed, palms on the mattress, and forearm facing forward, I sat there for a few seconds, finding some bearing. The ache Draven had caused between my legs was still there. My clit was still throbbing, begging to be relieved, but I attempted to ignore that and let my feet finally touch the area rug on the floor."When will this be over?" I talked out loud, heaving a prolonged low sigh as I thought about going downstairs to the kitchen. I was craving cocoa since I hadn't taken it earlier. I couldn't feel Draven's emotion
Draven Fox"Any report?" I asked Holden when I joined him in the search minutes later. My heart constricted at the thought of leaving Melody alone, but it had to be done that way."None; it's like he disappeared into thin air." There must be somewhere he was hiding and something he was using to hide his scent. Without a scent, it was almost impossible to track and locate him."He knows this pack like the back of his hand. He must have a hideout; we just have to figure out where." Holden added when I remained silent. I was trying to come up with a way to smoke him out, but it was proving hard because my mind was a mess with nana's passing and Melody's state."He told me he did it for power." I suddenly said, trying to let my mind cool down."I know; he told me the same. You said I was your favorite, and that's why you chose me to be your beta when you demoted Nova." The tone of his voice didn't change. It remained even, barely depicting an emotion."You don't seem affected." I pressed.
Melody Reese"I can help you catch him." I blurted it out once we got inside the house, after Draven pulled me in while looking around."Absolutely not!" He replied instantly, looking at me as if I had become mad."He wants me; why don't you let him think he can get me?" I insisted, crossing my fingers that he would agree."You are nuts if you think I am letting you out of this compound. Nothing will make me break that spell unless it is Jone's headless body." He stated, throwing me over his shoulder, then began walking towards the stairs."What was that for?" I complained when he slapped my ass, sending shivers down my spine, but I wasn't about to admit that I loved it."For daring to risk your life and our babies." He nonchalantly answered before adding another one that stung but soon was replaced by sparks of pleasure when he began rubbing the spot."But it will work, I know." I argued, biting my lower lip, when he spanked me two times without any pause in between. They were fast a
Draven FoxI stood in nana's backyard, looking at her lifeless body, as my mother cradled her head in her lap. She wasn't crying; no, she was staring at space, rocking back and forth as if her mind was slowly processing everything. Then she began mumbling the healing spell; it was almost as if she was slowly losing her mind without knowing it."Let go, mom." I said in a broken voice, my Adam's apple forcefully bobbing up and down over the lump that had formed."No, no, no." She whispered, then threw her head backwards and, in human form, let out an extremely loud howl that carried with it the pain of losing someone so special to her. Almost after that, dad howled behind me, and the elders that he seemed to have gathered joined him too, and they howled to the moon goddess together.As I listened to them and looked at my nana, it almost felt like I was in a frozen state. My mind was still processing what my eyes were seeing and my ears were hearing. Then, with a slight push inside of me
