Cilla.

That night, Ridian and I slept in different rooms for the first time since we were married. None of us wanted to talk. I had eaten my dinner early so when he returned, I was already locked up in the guest room. Ridian had lately acquired a smart phone for me since he also had one. The human world was developing first and we would get left behind if we didn’t try to catch up.

While our way of life was simpler and peaceful compared to that of the humans in their bustling cities, we still needed a few upgrades. Their technology really made life easier and we were trying to integrate more of it into our lives. Some packs preferred not to have it at all, because it brought some contaminations. When people discovered and tried devices, the more they wanted them. As they got engrossed in them, they forgot what was really important. Relationships and family.

I started playing an interesting block building game on the phone. The instructions were very clear and it was simple, therefor

    Cilla.There was only one place I could go and still be safe. Home. I rushed to the kitchen to find Cara. Thankfully, she was alone. She was leaning against the counter while writing something on her notebook. She closed it when I stormed in.“Tell the twins that I’ll be back before the day is over,” I told her.She turned the tap on and came to where I was standing. “Where are you going?” she whispered.“I can’t tell you,” I said to her. If I told her, she would tell Ridian and then he would come after me. Since the last thing I wanted was to be in the same vicinity with him, I had to keep that information to myself.“Do you have the keys of the truck?” she asked.I shook my head. “I don’t plan on using it.” “Have you told-.”“No, please come with me to the gate.”Cara escorted me to the gate, without asking more questions, before returning to the pack house. Since I was the luna, the security didn’t question me of my whereabouts. Instead, they offered protection.“Can I come with y

    Jane.It had been so long since I had been around a man who actually cared about me. Adam, the beta of Crystal pack was a delightful man to be around. When with him, I felt like a teenager that has just discovered love for the first time. Although I was not in love with him, I enjoyed the attention he was giving me and started craving for more. He took me on long walks, and we talked a great deal together. If I wasn’t so fixated on Ridian, I would have fallen in love with him because everything about him seemed great. But, as time went on, it become boring because he was too nice that it almost seemed fake. There was no flair, no challenge and I was not really used to that. People in crystal pack didn’t like me very much, especially the women. I think it was because I had swooped in from nowhere and taken all the male attention. There were a lot of beautiful and amazing women in the pack but there is always that allure that a new face brings to an area. A new good-looking person in a

    Ridian.“See,” I told Samantha when Cilla went off after seeing us together in the dining room. “That’s what I have to deal with nowadays. She’s acting like a child. She was not like that before.”Samantha sighed. “Maybe you just didn’t know her that well. You got married pretty fast. You should have studied her for at least a year. I think the moon goddess makes mistakes sometimes so just because people are fated mates doesn’t always mean they’re compatible.”“I just don’t know what to do with her.”“Give her time,” Samantha said. “That’s all you can do now. Don’t give in to her. Let her be until she realises that she’s being childish. In the world of werewolves, you cannot afford to be weak. When you show weakness, everyone will descend upon you.”Samantha was right. I guess being a slave and rescued from it had made Cilla dream up an utopian world that didn’t exist. Now that she was free, she thought she could make it happen. Unfortunately for her, a world where everything and ever

  • The Alpha's Enslaved Mate   The amazing party

    Cilla.Life at home was amazing. I had not expected such a warm, exciting welcome. It seemed that everyone was happy to see me. They were so happy that I would be the one to lead them. There was no way I could say no even though it was such a huge responsibility. After hearing all the things alpha Aragon had put them through, I felt bad for my people and wanted to help them. I finally appreciated what Ridian had done. Reuniting with my old friends was great. We talked, laughed and chatted for hours as we reminisced about the old days.The pack had not changed a lot in the physical aspect. The pack house had been repainted and some new designs added in certain places. The furniture inside had been changed. The theme colour used to be cream but now it was brown. There were three brown couches and brown tables. To be honest, it was quite dull. I stepped out of the house. The front yard of the pack house was buzzing with activity. Balloons of all colours adorned the bushes and trees, mak

  • The Alpha's Enslaved Mate   The fight

    CillaThe party goers gathered around us, forming a circle and holding their breaths wondering what alpha Aragon’s next move would be. Aragon and I stared at each other. My fists were clenched and ready for battle. Although I was scared, the alcohol stench under his breath made me believe I could take him. He looked weaker than the last time I had seen him. Since his pack had been taken away, I was sure he was undergoing a lot of stress.“You think you’re tough, huh?” he said. “Do you think becoming a luna magically makes you tough? I can see your arms and I’m pretty sure you have not undergone any training yet. How lazy of Ridian to forget to do that before giving you the throne. And how stupid of you to slap me and think you can get away with it.”I smiled, feeling confident that I could take him. If I could, I knew that all the people who loved me wouldn’t let me die in his hands. They’d kill him before he killed me. “I know how strong I am, and I can’t take you down, Aragon. For w

    Ridian.“The luna has been shot and is in a dangerous condition,” Kenny said to me. He was one of the warriors I had sent on an undercover mission to watch over Cilla.“What happened?” I asked.“She had gone for a tour in the woods. She was shot with a poisoned stake and is currently being treated by the healer. He thinks the stake had both wolfs bane and an unknown poison which is why the injury is very dangerous. She doesn’t look too good, her condition keeps worsening by the minute and it has not yet been established which poison was used on her. We can’t transport her in this condition so if you can, please come.”“What the hell were you doing when she was being shot?” I asked, feeling angry and scared at the same time.“I’m sorry, alpha. I was trailing them but had to stay a bit behind since I didn’t want to get noticed. I managed to grab her from the friend who was with her, and take her to the healer in time. This will never happen again.”“You’re right. This will never happen

    Ridian’s POVWhile heading home, I managed to get hold of Mathew Grovewood of the Grovewood healing brotherhood, a sect of six supernatural creatures who had dedicated their lives to healing. By the time we arrived at Blackmoon pack, Cilla was not doing very well but Mathew Grovewood and John Grovewood were already at the pack healer’s cabin. They quickly assessed the condition, ran a few tests and got to work. Since I trusted them, I and my men stepped out when we were instructed.The Grovewood healing brotherhood had been formed five decades back. It was composed of two werewolves, two vampires, and two witches, all of whom had dedicated their lives to studying different afflictions that affected supernatural creatures and finding solutions to them. They had extensively studied plant poisons. While regular plant poisons did not kill werewolves on their own, a mixture of them and wolf’s bane could bring down a werewolf. Since most of us could survive a certain amount of wolfs bane f

    Ridian.I spoke to the pack for half an hour before releasing them. When they had returned to their jobs, I observed their operations, noting how they were working together. For a pack with such a shitty leader, they seemed to be very united. They worked together harmoniously. What I noted was that there were very few sympathizers of Aragon. I spoke to the young man who had yelled at me during the assembly. He seemed very adamant so he was thrown into the dungeon. More of my warriors had come to the Moonshine pack to ensure that everyone was in line which was important in preventing insurrection. Although most of the pack members were suggesting that Aragon should be thrown into the dungeon, I thought that was too much punishment for a man who had lost almost everything already. Most of the members I spoke to about Cilla’s issue seemed to think the person who shot her was an intruder, or someone working for a person outside the pack. I figured it was time for me to study my enemies

    Cilla.One week later, we assembled the whole of Moonshine pack. We had speeches from both sides and the last speech was Ridian’s. When he made the announcement that Sasha Miller would lead the pack, the crowd erupted in cheers. “Please come forward,” Ridian asked Sasha who seemed so shocked by the announcement she couldn’t move for a while. Eventually, she strode forward in a responsible fashion and the crowd roared once me. I scanned the gathering and found alpha Aragon in tears. He seemed to be very happy that his daughter was going to be in charge. “We have been observing this brilliant young woman for a while since she returned and we have decided that she is the best person to replace her father in the leadership of this pack,” Ridian continued. “We shall talk with the elders so we can have a coronation ceremony as soon as possible. Although your new luna will have to report to me, you’ll have more autonomy over yourselves. We believe she’s the best person to steer this pack to

  • The Alpha's Enslaved Mate   The surprise

    CillaWaking up next to my lovelies was the best thing ever. I had slept through the morning. I woke up at 11 am and found Rose and Ren still asleep, their heads on each of my arms. My arms were hurting. When I tried to push them away so I could get up, they opened their eyes and tried to snuggle closer. I chuckled before speaking.“My hands hurt,” I said. They both moved away from them and sat up so I could bring my arms together. The action was painful but it was worth it. I had had the best sleep in a while and would do it a hundred times over. Knowing that Jane was dead and couldn’t hurt us was the icing on the cake.“How did you know where we were?” Rose asked.“I’m your big sister. I know everything.”“No, you don’t.” Rose said.“Seriously,” Ren said.I had noticed that Ren was growing faster, developing the snarky attitude of a teenager before his sister. Since I was now a parent, I had to learn patience and find a way of dealing with him without causing more problems.I told t

    Ridian.“Rose! Ren!” Cilla yelled, while running around the forest with tears streaming down her face. I followed her, begging her to stop for a moment but she couldn’t. She continued running further and further from me. When she finally stopped, she dropped to the ground.“I can’t believe we did everything for nothing,” she said. “You were right. We shouldn’t have wasted time going to the prison. Why did I have to think of such a stupid plan? Now, Jane is dead and I’m the one suffering. What kind of stupid revenge is this? I messed up, Ridian. I’m so stupid.”“No, you’re not.” I told her. “We’re going to find them. I’m sure they’ve run off somewhere. Suddenly, I felt something hit me from the back. “Run, Cilla. I’ve been shot.”Cilla Rose and came behind me, pulling out the arrow quickly. We both turned instantly and started running. We ran until we were out of the forest. George and his human friend were also nowhere to be seen. “What is happening?” Cilla asked. When we got into a

  • The Alpha's Enslaved Mate   The attack

    Ridian.The children’s shelter was surrounded by a wall fence which we easily jumped over. The car remained outside the fence while Cilla and I went in, dressed in our ski masks, the driver waiting for our exit. The shelter had an office building and a boarding house where the children and youth resided in. from our online stalking, we had found out that it was one large hall divided in the middle. One side was for very young children and preteens while the other was for older teens. It was amazing how foolish humans were. How do you claim to be protecting children yet give out all the details about where they lived? It didn’t make sense at all.Ross and Ren were twelve, and that meant they were in the teens section. The website had stated that 11 and below were in the younger children section. This made things easy for us since the younger children had matrons sleeping in their side. The side with older teens had no adults. The guard at the gate was easily taken care of. Cilla had k

  • The Alpha's Enslaved Mate   Everdeen city

    Ridian.The city was called Everdeen City. It took us about three hours to get there by car. When we reached, Cilla and I paid for a suite in a hotel while the warriors went to search for the location of the shelter and prison with the help of Google maps. Science and technology was making things really easy. We waited in out room anxiously for more information while watching the television for more updates. As expected, the police did not give out much information about the investigation. That was annoying. I felt like visiting her but I knew it would alert her on what we were planning to do. I wanted it to be a surprise to her. A few hours later, the men arrived and we were also taken to the place. We drove by the shelter and then the prison where Jane was being held as the police searched for information about the children. We decided we would carry out both operations at night. I found it hard to believe that Jane had been arrested by a human policeman and had failed to defend he

  • The Alpha's Enslaved Mate   The news

    Ridian.It had been two days since Cilla started training with Brody and it was not sitting well with me. I knew that she wasn’t going to do anything with him. I think I was more annoyed by the fact that she had opted to ask him to train her and not me. I was so much better than Brody in everything. It hurt me that she opted to ask him, as if she trusted him more than me. I tried to distract myself with other things but it was hard to stop thinking about the fact that they were both training together. When we were together, everything was mechanical. We did almost everything together and even slept on the same bed but we failed to connect like before. Cilla spent most of her attention on her phone and I ended up doing the same. We were like two strangers living in the same house. Cilla was so depressed that I barely knew what to do with her. I tried to help her but she never seemed receptive or interested in fixing the issues that were bothering us.The only good thing happening was

    Jane.Tom was a lanky young man. He was very tall but quite thin. He had a beautiful sweet face and a very nice smile. The first time he smiled at me, I felt my insides warm up. His house was quite messy as it looked like a party of druggies had just ended. The house reeked of smoke and alcohol. It was no place for children but I had nowhere else to take them. While the kids were still unconscious, I quickly tried to clean the house, not for their sake but for mine as well. I didn’t think I’d feel comfortable staying in such a dirty place. If Rody had told me Tom was a mess, I’d have found another place. Tom was watching me as I worked and since I was wearing very short shorts, I decided to give him a good view. I needed him on my side. People are fickle about kids, even bad people. Anyone who wants kids to suffer is a monster that’s beyond saving. There are not many people like that. There was a chance that tom was not like that. I had noted his reaction when he saw me getting them

    RidianWhen Cilla settled into bed next to me, I felt tempted to reach over and pull her close but was somehow able to resist the temptation. I was tired of fixing things. If she wanted the silent treatment, I would give it to her. After all, she was the one who barely showed any happiness after knowing that I was back home. I was beginning to think that she wanted me gone. But hell, that was my pack. There was no way I would abandon it for long. If she didn’t want to see my face, she could leave. I could survive without her, after all.Before she came into the room, I had been about to sleep but now that she was lying right next to me, it was almost impossible to get any sleep, especially since a certain part of my body had decided not to listen to the rational thoughts coming from my mind. It wanted what it wanted and not even my stubbornness was going to stop it. I decided to wait it out since I didn’t want to cave and be the one to make the first move. I was pretty sure Cilla wasn

    Cilla.Defeating the rogues made me feel pretty good about myself. I realized the need for me to train more after that attack. Having realized that Ridian would not always be there to protect me and the pack, it was time for me to better my skills incase stronger enemies decided to attack us. I was very happy with what I had achieved but knew there was need for me to do more.Kenny tried to punch my arm but I expertly dodged it and punched him in the chest instead. I had realized that he was trying to go easy on me and was trying to …him so he could fight back and we’d have a better training. As much as I tried he never budged so I started thinking of getting a new trainer. “Call Brody,” I told Kenny as I went to sit under a tree and drank some water. Kenny concentrated and linked to Brody. I didn’t hear what he was seeing since he was speaking through his mind. Eventually, he came up to where I was.“Are you sure about this?” he asked. “Mr. Jamison is said to be pretty rough on the
