***Gina's POV***I narrated the whole story to the crowd, and they all stared at me in awe. “Now let's discuss the reason there are two Lunas. The witch made a blood ritual with my face, and cloned my sister here, to have the same face as me. This way she could get into the pack and be with the Alpha and also be a spy for the enemies.”“That's not true! She's a liar!”“Uhm, excuse me to come in on this,” Fox said as he walked over to where I stood. “Though I still have no idea who the Luna is among you two, but Alpha, I've been meaning to report an issue, and since this issue ve up, I think it's best to report it now.”“What's that about, Fox?” Cain asked with a confused expression. “When you left, I noticed some strange movements about Luna. At first, she got into your office in the middle of the night, though she gave an explanation which I understood. Some nights, later, Anna also saw her leave the pack at midnight.”“Yes, Alpha. She left the pack at night and stayed out for som
GINA“Mama! Papa!”I cried out to my parents, but I was quickly yanked away by the pack beta, who was told to take me to safety. All the other women were escorted away, but they left me behind. I wanted to stay on the battlefield and fight, yet my dad wouldn't permit it.“Take her away now!” he shouted in his commanding tone.“No! I don't want to go!” I screamed at the top of my lungs, yet there was nothing I could do. He had blocked off my meridians to stop me from using my abilities, so I wouldn't rush back into the fight.How could I just stand there and observe my parents battle the enemies without doing anything to help?How can I bear to watch my people be slaughtered by adversaries that I have never even met?I thrashed and clawed at Andrew, but he wouldn't release me. Tears streamed down my cheeks as my nightmare became a reality. For five years, since I was 18, I've been dreaming of the destruction of my pack.Andrew only let me go after he took me to the cave where the women
CAIN Alpha, Cain, why don't you appear pleased after rescuing your Luna? I thought you'd been longing to meet her for years?”“Do I look like I'm not content? Of course, I am.”“No, you can't fool me, I know you, Cain.”“What do you want me to say?”“That you're into your mate, or not; it's as easy as that.”“Fine, would you accept it if I said I was keen on her?”“Considering who you are, I can barely credit this. You two just met a few days ago, and I remember you saying you'd never marry Fox's daughter due to a marital agreement. Dude, I don't think this will be beneficial for you now.”“I don't know. Quit interrogating me, Fox, you're aware I do not have an answer.”My beta and I were still discussing the Luna when suddenly we heard screams.Fox and I gave each other swift looks before dashing out of the room.“Do you suppose there's an ambush?”“That's not an ambush,” I informed Fox, pausing momentarily.“Oh, just someone who broke the pack rules again, I guess?” Fox replied cas
GINA I was dragged into the room where I was originally taken from. “Now you'll stay here and do exactly as you are told to.” I was pushed to the ground and the door was shut behind me with a loud bang. I winced in pain as I tried to get up and sit on my bed. My back was bleeding profusely. I could feel the rusty smell of my blood and my dress sticking to my open flesh. “Argh… I screamed loudly as the pains only seemed to have intensified. Why am I feeling so painful? I felt a burning pain and that pain was associated with what was coated with silver. If the whip was coated with silver, then these people would be cruel. I can't believe they would punish an offender with a silver-coated whip. I cried bitterly. I still can't imagine just how low I've sunk. I've always thought my parents would be with me for a long time, but the sudden attack on my neck happened, and in the twinkle of an eye, I lost everything that meant a lot to me. “Mom, Dad, what am I going to do without y
*******I've been in the flower department for a week now, and it's been filled with annoyance after Rosa yelled at me for not trimming the flowers well enough. I constantly have to change them to please this mysterious Alpha, who's apparently too in love with flowers.Thoughts of the mysterious Alpha made me forget my surroundings and, before I knew it, I had bumped into someone, and we'd both gone tumbling, the flowers between us. “Ouch!” I yelped at the pain, but the groan beneath me made me raise my gaze up. To my surprise, it was a man with familiar eyes that caused my wolf to stir.“Oh no, I'm so sorry!” I tried to get up while shielding the flowers from damage, but ended up falling again and catching his nose with my head.“Ouch! My nose!” he exclaimed.I was shaken. I can't believe what I just did in front of a stranger! I quickly stood up, relieved that nobody noticed my clumsiness. “What are you? A blind bat?” His deep voice sent chills down my spine. Who is this person wh
CAINMy head was messed up about everything going on around me. I needed to cool off. My wedding was just around the corner, and yet I didn't feel the need to get married, not that I didn't feel the connection. In fact, my wolf had declared her our mate, but why is it so hard for me to accept the fact that she was my mate?*Flashback*A Year Ago...“Cain, don't you think you've had enough of a solitary and carefree life? Why don't you let the promiscuous life go? It's time to assume the responsibilities of an Alpha."“You know I'm a very busy man. I have duties for the pack and my personal life. I don't have time for love now.”“No way, son, you are not fully the Lycan king unless you claim your true Luna. Your Luna isn't an ordinary Luna; she's the scarlet witch. This is an opportunity that comes once every century. "You are destined to be great, and hence you must find your other half to fulfill your destiny, son.”I hope my mother will understand that I'm not ready to see my mate
DIANEThe fact that Gina was going to investigate the case made me restless. What if she goes around snooping for clues? Will that further make things difficult? What am I supposed to do then? I need to stop her before she does anything stupid to sabotage my plans.I looked in the mirror, and stared at the mark on my chest. The Scarlet seal, which I was able to snatch from Gina. If I hadn't been shown the method through which I could actually steal the seal, I might have been the one taking on Gina's position. Maybe I might be the one serving her like a maid.Good thing I was capable of succeeding in my plans. Though the half moon shaped scarlet seal burns my skin from time to time, so long as I can use the proper ointment which I was given, it somehow reduces the pain and redness. By the way, that symbol is not something that can be easily seen by outsiders, since the symbol was originally located at the top of my breastbone.“I have a message for you, miss Diane,” someone said t
CAIN “I uhm, I'm here to keep you company.” I said rather briefly. “Keep me company? I don't think there's anything I actually need your assistance for.” I said rather dryly. She suddenly walked up to my desk. Though she boldly walked into my office, I could sense how nervous she was. “I know you might actually not need my help right now, but, I think it's good to have some alone time with you, since we'll be getting married soon.” The moment the words left her lips, I had no idea what came over me, but I suddenly felt repulsed. She's my mate, for goddess’s sake, and I shouldn't be feeling this way. “Gina, I know this is crucial for both of us, but don't you think we are taking this too far?”“Pardon?” She said. I heaved a long sigh and left what I was working on, so I could focus on her. “I know you're my mate, and as my mate, I know you want to be married and take your rightful place by my side, but don't you think we're far too distant for a marriage now?”“Uhm, Alpha Cain,

****Gina's POV****The war became so hectic that everyone almost lost it, bleeding profusely, even though the people we were up against were indeed worthy opponents. We fought to our last breaths. I stood in front of the witch while I grabbed her by the throat. “You've always talked down on me even 10000 years ago and now. You tortured me and almost made me lose my child. Did you think these things I will forgive? Then you must not know me.”The witch, whose powers had been exhausted, didn't say a word. “Well, since you wouldn't speak, it means there's nothing left of you. Moreover, I would like to see what you look like, since you've always been in a mask,” I dragged the mask off her face, and there was a shrinking old lady with a decaying face. I shut my eyes instantly as I couldn't stand just how hideous she looked.“It is quite a pity that you were unable to preserve your skin. I bet every other part of your body has begun to decay. Let me guess, you started decaying the moment
***Gina's POV****I made preparations with the Alpha of the new pack I was in. “Alpha Zane, you don't really have to come with me. I can do this on my own.”“Don't say that now, Scarlet Witch. It is my honor to work with you. Please do not refuse my help.”I can't refuse him anyway. But then I have to make an important decision. And that is to either go to the witch or to my mate. I couldn't go to my mate because I didn't want him to get confused. Going to him now will only mean I'll have to prove myself. I have that much time left to prove myself to him, rather the time I have is to get rid of witch Zelda for good. She has lived for far too long. Before going on my mission, I decided to pay a visit to my son, who was with Reina. During the times I've been in training, Reina had been the one taking care of Leon. Since she still hasn't gotten a pup of her own, she takes care of Leon like he was her son. The only thing she came to me for was When he needed to be fed. “Reina, I'll be
****Alpha Cain's POV***I'm quickly asked to see Fox immediate, I need all the men that I can get. “Alpha, you sent for me.”“Fox, I require some men, the battle with our enemies will start soon. I know we've never really gone on a head - on battle with any Pack, aside from the fact that they tried attacking us twice. This time, we are not going to let them strike first because we will be the ones striking first. “This is good news, then, Alpha. I can't wait for us to finally deal with these enemies who have been trying to get us down. But Alpha, have you any idea who the traitor is among your trusted allies?”“Of course, I found the culprit. And you wouldn't believe it.”“Who among them is the real enemy?”“It's one of your most trusted Alphas.”“Shit! How on earth did he become one of the trusted allies?”“It beats me up to this very moment. I had no idea how I got deceived by him.”“Since that's the case, after mobilizing our men, what will be our next step?”“Our next step is to
****Gina's POV***I stood in front of the black Box. At this point, I was so sure about what I'm about to do.”“Gina, do you need me to be here with you?”“I took a glance at Reina and smiled at her. You don't have to Reina. I need to do this on my own. All I ask is that you take care of my boy until I'm done with what I'm about to do.”“You have nothing to worry about if that's the case. Your son is very well safe with me and will always be safe with me. You should do your thing. I promise we'll all be waiting for you patiently for your return,”With that, she shut the door, leaving me in the dark room with the box. Before standing in front of the box I trained for over a month. I cannot delay the process anymore. The mistakes I made in the past cost me dearly, I cannot make another mistake this time. Standing in front of the box, I slowly placed my hands on it and shut my eyes, but all of a sudden, I was thrown off to the wall by the immense power from the box. What was that? I s
*****Alpha Dexter's POV***I paced from one end of the room to the other. I can't imagine things going south. We all had our plans well sorted out, but how the hell did Cain find out about Dorian?As soon as Dorian walked in, I quickly walked over to meet him. “What's going on, Dorian? Do you have any idea what happened?”“Huh? I don't know what you mean. I just came back from meeting with the rogues to give them their reward as promised. “Shit! You should have informed me before going?”“Alpha Dexter, did something happen, perhaps?”“Yes, you were spotted by Alpha Cain's men. Do you know what this means? We are done for. All of our plans I'm afraid will go down the drain.”“It won't, I promise I will rectify whatever suspicion the Alpha might have on me.”“You think Cain is stupid? He already suspects you and the others. Since he was able to find out, this simply means that he must have been keeping tracks of you all. This was just the best opportunity, and you got caught in the ac
***Anna's POV***The moment I managed to pull away from the kiss, which took almost forever, I glared at him and screamed loud. “What the hell is wrong with you, Fox?”“Huh? You, of course. I kept trying to pass the message, but you weren't giving me a listening ear, so I thought this was the best way-”“Don't even start with me. What happened to confronting me and telling me whether you were attracted to me or not? What's with forcing your lips on mine, damn it!”“Let me understand this, Anna, are you perhaps mad at the kiss or mad at the fact that I didn't propose my feelings to you formally?”I darted my gaze from place to place. At this point, I don't even know why I was mad. Why was I?I took a quick glance at him only to see him watching me curiously and probably waiting for answers from me. “You know what, I'm not going to stay here one more minute to listen to your questions,” just as I placed my hands on the door knob, Fox quickly locked the door and took the keys into his
****Anna's POV***“Miss Anna, don't you think you've been coming rather frequently. I mean, I'm not the Alpha.”“What's wrong with you? You should at least hear what I have to say before you jump to conclusions, you know.”“Oh, I'm jumping to conclusions?”“Well, just in case you haven't noticed, that's what you've been doing whenever I come to you. Or do you perhaps have a thing for me?”I asked with a creased brow. Fox immediately let out a slight cough, which confused me. “What's wrong?”“Goodness! What goes into that head of yours? I mean, why would I have a thing for you in the first place?”“Well, I have no idea. Yours actions keep confusing me, so you can't blame me for thinking that way,”“Trust me, there's nothing like that,” he said while staring deep in my eyes as if he were searching for Something. I cleared my throat quickly. For some reason, his gaze made me uncomfortable. “So tell me, why are you here?”Now that he's come back to being serious, I quickly walked over
***Diane's POV****The moment it was the middle of the night, I quickly dressed up and wore a dark cloak which hid my face. I needed to get out of the pack to pass my message, and the only way I could do that was this time of the night. The witch had earlier informed me to call on her if I had anything to report to her. At this point, there's a lot she needed to know about. Starting with the fact that Alpha Cain had found a lead which I do not know about. And also the fact that Anna had come to stay with me. I knew she was going to keep a close watch on me all through the day. That's why the best time to do this was in the middle of the night. When I know she wouldn't have the time to watch over me. I passed through the place Anna had earlier shown me to be our hideout. This was better than when I had to go through the pack house. If truly I was able to get through to the witch using the hideout, that simply means this will be my new route. The other which I used was quite risky an
