Alexander’s POVTyler also got up, flexed his muscles, and said, "Indeed, the werewolves of Shadow City are quite formidable, forcing us to use the potion our ancestors left behind."I found it amusing, and with a wary smile, I realized that these werewolf hunters had more than a few tricks up their sleeves.The tension in the room was thick enough to cut with a knife. My heart pounded as Tyler and Jake, the werewolf hunters, glared at me with fury in their eyes. They had managed to evade Ethan's attacks, and now, their silver pistols were drawn and aimed straight at me. But I couldn't back down, not when Sophia's safety was at stake.I had tossed her onto Ethan's back as a precaution, making sure she was out of harm's way. She clung to him, her eyes wide with fear, but she trusted me to handle the situation. I couldn't let her down."Lower your weapons," I growled, my voice low and dangerous. "She's coming with us."Tyler and Jake exchanged a glance, their expressions hardening. They
Alexander’s POVTyler and Jake exchanged a glance, their expressions hardening. They were committed to their mission, and they weren't about to let me or Ethan, my loyal companion, stand in their way.With a swift movement, Tyler fired a shot from his silver pistol, narrowly missing me. I dodged to the side, the sound of the gunshot ringing in my ears. Ethan leaped at Jake, their forms colliding in a flurry of fur and teeth.I put away my contempt for the wolf hunters and focused on the battle at hand. Tyler and Jake were no amateurs; they had trained for this moment for years. But so had I.We clashed, our bodies moving with precision and agility. Over the years, the werewolf hunters had lacked the rigorous training that I had undergone as the Alpha of the Shadow City. It wasn't long before they found themselves at a disadvantage, their stamina dwindling with each passing moment.Tyler clutched his side, blood staining his shirt from a wound I had inflicted. Jake's face was bruised a
Alexander’s POVAs I pulled back, I could see the shock and disbelief in Tyler and Jake's eyes. They had never expected me to take such a drastic step, to mark Sophia as my own. But I would do whatever it took to ensure her safety and happiness.“No, damn it!” Tyler and Jake shouted in unison.Tyler's voice was filled with anger as he scolded me. "You've gone too far, werewolf. This is a violation of everything we stand for."Jake nodded in agreement, his expression just as furious. "You'll regret this."But before they could react, before they could make a move against me, Ethan stepped forward, his growl low and menacing. He was a loyal companion, and he would protect me and Sophia at all costs."Back off," Ethan warned, his eyes locked onto Tyler and Jake. "You won't lay a finger on them."As I held Sophia in my arms, her body marked with my claim, I couldn't help but feel a surge of pride and possessiveness. She was mine, now and forever, and I was determined to protect her at all
Sophia’s POVI blinked my eyes open, slowly becoming aware of my surroundings. I was lying in a comfortable bed, and the warmth of a broad chest pressed against my back made me feel safe and protected. I turned my head slightly and saw Alexander, his gentle gaze fixed on me."Good morning," he murmured, his voice soft as he stroked my hair with a tender touch. "Did you sleep well? Are you hungry?"I nodded, a smile tugging at my lips. "Yes, I'm hungry."Ethan had already prepared breakfast, and the delicious aroma wafted through the room. We got up and made our way to the dining area, where a spread of food awaited us.As we sat down to eat, I couldn't help but mention something that had been on my mind for a while. "It's been so long since I've been home. I miss my parents."Alexander looked at me, his expression turning serious. He understood the implications of what I was saying. My parents were humans, and he was a werewolf. The revelation that I had two children, his children, wo
Alexander’s POVThe room fell silent, the weight of her words hanging heavily in the air. Richard and Anne stared at her in disbelief, and I could feel their shock radiating from them. I glanced at Sophia, her eyes filled with a mixture of apprehension and hope.Anne was the first to find her voice. "You've...you've given birth? When did this happen? Why didn't you tell us?"A stunned silence fell upon the room, broken only by the ticking of the grandfather clock in the corner. Richard's brows furrowed in disbelief, and he shifted uncomfortably in his armchair. "You've given birth? When did this happen?"Sophia stammered out her explanation. "It... it happened 3 years ago, Dad."“What? !3 years ago? Sophia, you were just a student three years ago."“Yes... Sorry, Dad.”Her mother, Anne, gasped softly, placing a hand to her chest in shock. "But... but why didn't you tell us, Sophia? We had no idea."I watched Sophia closely, my heart aching for the pain she was experiencing. I knew tha
Alexander’s POVThe weight of the room's tension hung heavily as I sat there, feeling the weight of responsibility for the pain that my presence had caused. Sophia's parents, Richard and Anne, were still visibly upset, and Richard's disappointment had cut deeply. I cleared my throat, trying to find the words to mend the broken trust."I want to sincerely apologize once again," I began, my voice steady but filled with remorse. "I deeply regret any pain and disappointment my actions have caused you, especially Sophia. We didn't take this decision lightly, and we knew it was time to confess to you, to be honest about our feelings and intentions."Richard's expression was still stern, but there was a glimmer of curiosity in his eyes. "Thought long and hard, you say?"I nodded, my gaze unwavering. "Yes, sir. We knew that our love for each other was strong enough to face whatever challenges might come our way. We're committed to taking care of Sophia and the children."Richard's gaze shifte
Alexander’s POVThree days had passed since I returned to the mansion, my heart heavy with the knowledge of the recent werewolf attacks on humans. The situation was dire, and I knew that immediate action was necessary to protect both the werewolf community and the humans who had become unwitting targets.I had spent those three days tirelessly strategizing, using my vast financial resources to suppress the news of the attacks. It was a delicate and challenging task, one that required the utmost discretion and secrecy.As I sat in my study, pondering our next steps, my loyal and capable secretary, Candace, entered the room. Her sharp eyes and unwavering dedication had always been assets, and I trusted her implicitly."Mr. Alexander, I have an update on the media coverage regarding the recent attacks," she said, her tone as composed as ever.I nodded, eager to hear the progress. "Go on, Candace."She held out a report for me to peruse, and I quickly scanned the contents. It detailed how
Alexander’s POVAs I finally settled into a moment of respite, my phone buzzed, and I glanced at the caller ID. It was Sophia. I answered with a curious tone, wondering why she was calling at this hour."Sophia, what's going on?" I inquired.Her voice came through with a mixture of concern and urgency. "Alexander, I just wanted to let you know that Daniel, Daisy, and Emilia are on their way to the mansion."I couldn't help but feel a rush of irritation at the news. "Why aren't they still in Shadow City? I thought I made it clear that they were to stay there for the time being."Sophia's voice remained calm as she explained. "Ethan said... Emilia insisted on coming, and she convinced the kids to join her. She said she had some important information to share with you."I sighed, feeling my frustration grow. "Alright, prepare a car for me. I'll be heading home as soon as possible."I knew Emilia was my cousin, but she had a knack for getting herself into trouble, and I wasn't thrilled ab
Sophia’s POVAfter the tense negotiations and the binding blood covenant, we finally returned to the safety and comfort of our mansion. The weight of the day's events still hung heavily in the air, but there was also a sense of relief and accomplishment that filled our hearts. Peace between humans and werewolves was no longer just a distant dream; it was becoming a reality.As we stepped through the door, Alexander pulled me into a warm embrace. His worry for me was evident in his eyes, but he couldn't hide the joy and pride that also shone there. I felt his strong arms wrap around me, and I buried my face in his chest, finding solace in his presence."I was so worried about you, Sophia," he whispered into my hair, his voice tinged with emotion. "You're the bravest person I know."I looked up at him, touched by his words, and managed a weak smile. "It was a necessary sacrifice, Alexander. I believe in what we're doing, and I'm willing to do whatever it takes for peace."His lips met m
Sophia’s POVThe authoritative Wolf Hunters exchanged uncertain glances, clearly taken aback by my proposal. They had never encountered such a gesture of commitment before.One of them, a stern-looking man, finally spoke. "This is a bold offer, Luna, but how can we be sure that this covenant will hold? A hundred years ago, a human girl made a similar covenant, and peace was shattered. Her soul was offered to the Moon Goddess, and yet, it didn't prevent the war."I took a deep breath, understanding the weight of history behind his words. "I believe that this time is different. Alexander, Tyler, Jake, and I, we all trust each other completely. We are willing to do everything in our power to prevent the Moon Goddess from consuming my soul. I am confident that we can make this covenant hold."Alexander's expression was conflicted as he looked at me, "Sophia, I can't bear the thought of you making such a sacrifice. There must be another way."Tyler and Jake, who had been silent until now,
Sophia’s POVAs we approached the Wolf Hunters' base, my heart raced with a mix of excitement and trepidation. It had been a week since Alexander had recovered from his injuries, and now we stood on the precipice of a pivotal moment in history. The mission was clear: to negotiate peace between humans and werewolves after centuries of conflict. It was a daunting task, but one that I believed in with all my heart.As Alexander and Ethan led the way, I couldn't help but feel a surge of gratitude towards them. They had been through so much, and yet, they were willing to risk it all for the sake of peace. I had requested to accompany them on this mission, believing that as a human, I could offer a unique perspective that might help bridge the gap between our two worlds. Alexander had agreed to my request, and I was determined to prove that my presence would be an asset, not a liability.The atmosphere grew tense as we entered the Wolf Hunters' base. Eyes followed us, filled with suspicion
Sophia’s POVThe three days of waiting had been torturous. Each passing hour had only deepened my worry and anxiety. I had called secretary Candace, repeatedly, hoping for any news about Alexander, but the repeated responses of "no news yet" had done little to ease my concern.Daniel and Daisy had sensed the heaviness in the air and had been keeping me company in the living room. Daisy, with her innocent eyes and heart full of love for her father, was the first to voice her concern. "Mom, where's Daddy? Why hasn't he come back yet?"I tried to put on a brave face, forcing a reassuring smile. "Don't worry, sweetie," I said, my voice soft and comforting. "Daddy will be back soon. Maybe he's just been delayed by something. He'll be home before you know it."Daniel, ever the protector and the older sibling, chimed in with his own attempt at reassurance. "Yeah, Daisy, Mom's right. Dad's probably on his way back now. There's nothing to worry about."Daisy seemed to take comfort in her broth
Sophia’s POV The next morning, I woke up with a sense of dread that had settled deep within me. The events of the previous day, the bombing of the Wolf Hunter Organization's headquarters, and the uncertainty of Alexander's safety weighed heavily on my mind. I reached for my phone, my heart pounding in my chest, hoping for a message or some news that would ease my worry. But as I checked my phone, there was nothing—no missed calls, no messages, no updates. I knew that Alexander was involved in a dangerous mission, and I couldn't bring myself to call him and potentially jeopardize his safety. Instead, I decided to call Tyler, hoping that he might have some information. As I dialed Tyler's number, my hands trembled with anticipation. The phone rang, and with each ring, my anxiety grew. Then, to my relief, Tyler answered. "Sophia," I greeted him, my voice filled with worry. "Where are you? Why haven't you been answering my calls?" Tyler's voice sounded hoarse, and I could hear exhaust
Sophia’s POVAs the night wore on, I couldn't shake the nagging worry that gnawed at me. I reached for my phone and dialed Tyler's number, my heart pounding with anticipation. The phone rang and rang, but there was no answer. Anxiety crept in, and I redialed the number, hoping for a different outcome. Again, it went unanswered.I tried calling Jake next, praying that at least one of them would pick up and ease my growing apprehension. But the result was the same—no answer, just the cold, unfeeling silence of voicemail.With a heavy heart, I hung up and stared at my phone screen. The minutes ticked by like hours, and it seemed like time had come to a standstill. I couldn't help but worry about Tyler and Jake. They had been through so much, and now, with the Wolf Hunter Organization under attack, their lives hung in the balance.The clock on the wall read 11 o'clock in the evening, but sleep was elusive. I tossed and turned in my bed, my mind filled with thoughts of Alexander, Tyler, an
Sophia’s POVAs we held each other, the gravity of the situation sank in. I knew that this was a risky endeavor, that the Rogues were a dangerous and unpredictable enemy. But I also believed in Tyler and Jake, in their vision of a world where wolves and humans could coexist peacefully. And I was willing to do whatever it took to help them achieve that goal.With a heavy heart, Alexander picked up his phone and dialed Ethan's number. The seconds felt like hours as he waited for his second-in-command to answer. When Ethan's voice finally came through the line, it was filled with a mixture of surprise and curiosity."Alpha, what's going on?" Ethan asked. "Just a week ago, you were suggesting we observe the Rogues' movements and not provoke them. Why the sudden change?"Alexander took a deep breath, his fingers gripping the phone tightly. "Ethan, the situation has escalated. The Rogues have bombed the Wolf Hunter Organization's base, causing significant casualties. We can't afford to wait
Sophia’s POVI couldn't believe my eyes as I stared at the TV screen, the news anchor's words echoing in my mind. "Harborview Corporate Center has been bombed, causing chaos and casualties in the area." My heart raced, and my thoughts were consumed by worry for Tyler and Jake.Without wasting a moment, I knew I had to find Alexander, and tell him about this dire situation. I rushed to the car, my hands trembling as I fumbled with the keys. The drive to Alexander's company felt like an eternity as I replayed the news report in my head, trying to make sense of what had just happened.When I finally arrived at the sleek, glass-fronted building that housed Alexander's company, my mind was still racing. I hurriedly parked and practically sprinted to the entrance. The security guard at the front desk greeted me with a nod, accustomed to my occasional visits.I scanned the bustling lobby for any sign of Alexander and finally spotted him in a meeting room off to the side. He was engrossed in
Tyler’s POVI clenched my jaw at the mention of Alexander's name. His name seemed to irritate me, but I pushed that feeling aside. Despite my affection for Sophia, I knew that her heart belonged to Alexander. Their bond was strong, and I couldn't let my personal feelings get in the way of her happiness."It's not your fault, Sophia. We knew the risks when we joined the Wolf Hunters. Our investigation into the Rogues is not just for you; it's for the safety of everyone."Sophia's gratitude was evident as she said, "I appreciate it, Tyler. Please be careful out there. I don't want anything to happen to you or Jake.""We will, Sophia," I assured her. "And we'll keep you updated on our progress. You stay safe too."Jake had been listening to our exchange. His expression was a mix of determination and concern. "She's worried about us, Ty.""Sophia, you don't have to worry," I said, trying to convey the sincerity in my voice. "We're here to protect you, no matter what it takes.""Thank you,
