My nervousness takes the best of me.To control it, I decided to hang out in the cafeteria a bit longer, focusing on my food. Arriving at my Luna stuttering and sweating is not really my plan, I have to get a good hold on myself. I don't know what it will cost me to convince her that my pack needs her and leave with me immediately. I really can’t stay back waiting patiently for that stupid Glary to get her when he's done chasing Mercedes.To my horror, I realized I did not ask the waitress for a name. If she could give such a detailed description of my Luna, then at least she must have picked up a name during the conversation between the two visitors. She seems pretty meddlesome, I wouldn't be surprised if she also knows what the Beta and my Luna were talking about. I look around for her so I can still find the information on her, but she's gone. Hopefully not to serve one of her customers the deal of the day.I finish my meal and prepare to leave. Before I walk out, I toss some bills
When I carefully open my eyes again, I look at a clean white ceiling.“Hey beauty. You were suddenly gone. What happened?" I hear a voice next to my bed. When I turn my head I see the Head Warrior I had met when I arrived in the pack. Cleo is his name. I give a watery smile and try to sit up but my head is spinning.A woman in white approaches me, helps me sit up and places a pillow on my back. “I'm Irene, the pack doctor”, she introduces herself. “I've examined you and there's really nothing wrong with your body. You passed out from an acute shock. I gave you a sedative so you could get some rest. So now you should be all right again.” I nod and smile gratefully. She grabs her bag and immediately leaves the room, leaving me with Cleo.“You passed out when you saw our Beta. I know he is a bit overwhelming sometimes, but for the first time I saw a woman literally at his feet," jokes Cleo. I blush when I think about my fall. But then I remember the reason for the shock. My eyes widen and
We tumble into the bed and undress each other with a greediness that I didn't know I had.My hands are all over his inked body, I need to touch him so much, to feel him. Our clothes ended on the floor until I was just in front of him in my panties. “You are so beautiful, my mate”, he whispers, his face in my hair as his hand caresses my breasts. I grab his shoulders as a ray of lust runs through my body. My hips move on their own, start rubbing against his boxers. When I feel his erection on my pussy I get hot inside.I turn my head in search of his lips. “Ahhh, you feel so good. You're everything I've dreamed of, mate," he declares hoarse against my skin, covering my neck with feather-light kisses. His lips go down, sucking on my skin. I'm sure there will be hickeys there later on. But when I feel the warmth of his mouth around my nipple, I can't help but groan delightful, spin like a kitten. Full of desire I press my boobs further into his mouth, my hands tossed through his long blo
Third Party's POV .“Zane! I'm going crazy here! You have to help me find her”.I can't contain myself, I need my mate, desperately. She had promised to stay with me, yet when I awoke at noon she was gone. There wasn't a place in the pack where I didn't look for her until the guard came to tell me she had driven off in her car.I can not believe she did this! After she gave herself to me last night, unconditionally and uncensored. We made love as I've never experienced before, we were starving, we pushed each other to the limits until we almost dropped dead. And then she leaves me, without any explanation. At first, she wanted to reject me, but I stopped her. Her reaction afterward during our intense lovemaking, I thought she had completely changed her mind.But still, she chose to leave me.She went back to her pack without waking me up. She's my fated mate, the one I've waited so long for, so longed for. And then one day she just rode into my pack and my heart, giving herself to me
A week in human town and I feel so drained.I know it is the mate pull that weakens my wolf Estrella constantly. She needs her mate, now that we have started the mating process she longs to complete it. And besides all this, Jace's wolf calls her, he lures us to him. Every night he lets out a loud painful howl across the land, intended to connect his wolf with Estrella so he knows where to find us. But I have Estrella well under control, without my consent she cannot respond to her mate's call. But the howls do make me shiver with anticipation, longing for another passionate night. But I vigorously fight it, I won’t give in.Estrella wants to surrender, she wants her mate just like he wants to keep us with him. Every day she urges us to go back to Midnight Moon, to our handsome mate. And then they imprint his amazing body on my retina. Every day I see those long golden locks which I had gripped my fingers in ecstasy, his fully inked muscular body that I left scratched when the pleasur
. Still Saphira's POVFifteen minutes later, Glary arrives.I'm shocked at the speed at which he got here, I frown when I see him walk through the door. “Glary, these are my neighbors, both werewolves. They found me when I passed out,” I introduce him to my two rescuers.The three look at each other in shock. “Aren't you from the Midnight Moon pack? Gamma Kenry and the Alpha sister Elise?” Glary suddenly asks without shaking their hands. The two still nod in surprise. “Alpha! Did you come and get Saphira personally?” asks Elise in amazement. The Gamma also looks as if this astonishes him. But Glary nods relaxed and turns to me. He takes me bridal style in his arms.“This is my girlfriend,” he announces. “Thank you for taking care of her. I'll take it from here". And with that, the matter seems settled for him and we leave. When we get to my door, I press my fingertip on the machine. Glary takes me in and puts me on both legs.“How come you passed out, Saphira? That's not
Beta Jace's POV“Kenry, didn't you think the behavior of that she-wolf and Alpha was strange when we were in human town?” Elise, Alpha Zane's sister, asks the Gamma annoyed. “He was so rude to us while we had been helping his pack member. I didn't get the impression that they were fated mates, maybe she's just his mistress." Elise clearly feels shortchanged by what happened last week in human town when she came from a business trip with our Gamma.This is the second time I heard her mentioning this case. I have shown no interest in it before, my head is with my mate and besides that, I have a lot of work at hand now that Zane extends his stays in Silver Moon. Every year he celebrates the day he first met his little Luna in a big way. But the most striking thing is that in recent weeks Mercedes has been more affectionate, she keeps her mate with her longer than before if she can't be in our pack herself. The two are really inseparable.Whenever I see them together or when Zane speaks t
“I need to replace this car ASAP! What a snail's pace! Couldn't it be faster, Gamma!" Irritated, I turn to Kenry behind the wheel. We've been on the road for five minutes and it seems that Human Town is getting further with every second.I'm in a hurry and the man behind the wheel isn't moving fast enough. And I thought my car was the fastest in the pack after Zane's. “We would have preferred to take the Heli. Unfortunately, this car is not an airplane, you'll have to settle for this speed, Beta," he notes. “I'm at the maximum that can take us safely into Human Town. Just a little while and we'll end up in some hospital and then you will arrive much later than now."I know he's right, but my wolf can't handle the truth. Maybe I should have just run the distance with my wolf. My mate needs me, or rather say, we need each other to strengthen our wolves. We are exhausted from the long separation. A smile breaks on my face when I think I'll have her in my arms again in half
Five years later in Midnight MoonAlpha Zane and Luna Mercedes comfortably sit on a bench in their private garden, watching their children. After Zane built a private villa, a stone's throw from the packhouse, he moved with his family to have more privacy.Four kids in total.The girls are the perfect image of their mother. Their long black hair, gray-blue eyes, tanned skin and confident behavior leave little room to guess who their parents are. Their infectious laugh and smooth babble surprise many in the pack, it's not much different from the ten-year-old Mercedes that Zane had brought to the pack years ago.And there are the two blonde guys remotely controlling their drone at a short distance but still keeping an eye on their sisters. Their father taught them very early that they are the protectors of their sisters until their mate shows up and takes that responsibility from them. And they take their job very seriously, making sure nothing happens to them. They treat their sisters
“You really need to push, Luna. Harder!”Goodness! These people have easy talking. What do they think I've been doing for half an hour? I'm exhausted, this is heavier than I thought.Zane sits next to my bed and looks concerned. “You have to do your best, baby. We should have our first pup in five minutes. I know it's a lot of work, but you must be strong now," he whispers as he wipes the sweat from my forehead.We've been in the hospital all night. The pups don't seem to be in any hurry to come out. But the last quarter is the worst. The fall of the first one is slow, the doctor considers helping him. But Zane wants to keep trying to let him into the world on his own. He leans towards me. “Remember how we will hold him in our arms in a few minutes, Mercedes. We were so looking forward to this.”I give him a watery smile. But when I look into his eyes, it seems like his energy flows to my body. Zane leans closer and begins to kiss my face. This feels so good, I sigh with h
It's going grand, as I expected.Alphas have come a long way, despite the invitation's short timeframe. It is noticeable in everything that Elise has put a lot of effort and time into making this day unforgettable for me. Hundreds attended my Luna ceremony today. I think many have thought that Zane and I would not make it to this day. I was too young at first, then Zane had to face my Alpha and then he got a rival in the form of Shadow Moon's Alpha. But we have overcome all obstacles, our happiness is now unmatchable.After visiting his parents, I did not go back to our residence.Bad luck, Elise claimed, Zane was only allowed to see me on stage again. I was assigned a private room where I could relax and take a nap. And believe me, a rest and some dry food is all I needed back then. Until I heard a soft knock against the window. At first, I thought some birds were playing on the window frame, but when the noise continued, I was forced to get up and see what was happeni
After we leave the hospital with the ultrasound photos in an envelope, we drive back to the packhouse in silence. Once again, we are sunk in our own bliss now that we have seen our pups. It's official, we're going to be parents. This feeling is more intense than I thought.We decided to announce the news during the ceremony officially. About my pregnancy and the number of little ones on the way. I can already imagine how exuberant the pack will react to this news. It is now also not a secret anymore, of course, that Zane and I have not kept our agreement to mate after I was eighteen. But hey, why should we wait? It all took too long. And we're fated, the proof was there long before my birthday.When we get to the packhouse, we head to my in-laws first. Former Luna Jonel and her mate James, Zane's parents, have always been fond of me, spoiled me a lot over the years. I have a special bond with his mother and his sister Elise has always been my mainstay. As we step into t
Mercedes' POVI can't believe what Zane just told me.And why do I get the feeling like he's known this for a long time? But the way he told me, he seemed unsure of my reaction to all this. Yes, it’s true, we planned to have pups later. We wanted to do the things that couples our age do first. Because once we had pups, we would dedicate our entire lives to them, raising them to be responsible and honest leaders. That was our plan.But Zane is right. It is the Moon Goddess who approved our plans. But she has put a different twist on our plans. Because Zane indicated that we wouldn't get only one but several pups at once. That is totally not what we imagined but to me, they are so welcome. I want to make them all look like Zane, physically as well as mentally. My sons will be just as perfect as my mate.I have him in a firm embrace now. Slowly I hear his heart calm down. “Zane, why should it be your fault alone? I remember being there and very active too,” I tease him. We smile at each
If I thought I'd get support from my family to keep it a secret tonight that Mercedes is expecting our first pup, I got disappointed. Now that I'm standing outside my parents' apartment again, I think back to what happened to me a few minutes ago. First, they received me full of happiness and then I was resolutely kicked out to go tell my mate the excellent news, under threat too.As soon as I opened the topic and released the news, cheers erupted, my mother cried with happiness. My father quickly wiped away a tear too, while Elise kept her mouth wide open in awe. They embraced with joy, opened an expensive wine and we clinked glasses.But the moment I indicated that Mercedes did not know her condition, there was immediate silence. "How so, she doesn't know?" my mother asked in stupefaction. “And how come you know?” Elise also looked at me, incredulous. "And now that you know, why do you want to keep it a secret?" she asked me as if she had just heard I have a mental di
When I wake up late the next afternoon, Mercedes is still asleep in my arms.I look at her black locks scattered all over my arm and shoulders and her relaxed face. She lies so peacefully, snoring from her slightly open lips. Her legs are entwined with mine, an old trick of her to wake up as soon as I move. In the past, when I visited her in her pack, she always had a problem with me sneaking away while she was still asleep.But not today. I know she's dead tired.After the failed shift in Shadow Moon and the celebration of our mating with the warriors, we drove straight through the night to Midnight Moon. Of course, there was an interruption in Human Town at the Drive Thru. And when we finally got here in the early morning hours, there was another late meal with the Elders, followed by our intense lovemaking. My Luna is now exhausted, I want to let her sleep through. Knowing my parents, her ceremony tonight will be pretty hectic. I'll have to ask them to spare her a li
When we arrive at Midnight Moon we are surprised to see the pack members waiting. A horde of wolves lets out a loud roar of joy when the car comes to a standstill.When Mercedes gets out, a loud cheer goes through the group, flowers are thrown at her. “Welcome, Luna Mercedes. Now stay forever. You can't go back, you belong to Midnight Moon now”, they scream at once. The five Elders of the pack step forward and bow their heads. They are clearly delighted to see my mate.“Luna Mercedes. The Alpha informed us you're still tired, so we're moving your ceremony to tomorrow night. We will adjust the part where you are supposed to shift. Don't worry about that," the Head of Elders declares. I look at him gratefully, this is more than I expected. Mercedes is the absolute princess of my pack and heart. “Thank you, Elder”, I hear her say softly with equal joy. “I'm looking forward to that. I officially want to be Zane's mate so that the past period doesn't repeat itself. It should be clear to ev
Happily, I stare at my mate.How did this possibility not cross my mind? This must have happened that day in the cabin in the woods. When we made love there, I already had a different feeling, felt more connected to Mercedes. Before I met her, I had some flings with she-wolves outside my pack, but I've never knotted them. Mercedes is clearly my mate, determined by the Moon Goddess. She alone could get my body to react like that.I keep staring at her in love, unable to explain my behavior to her. It is impossible for me to tell her in front of everyone that in a few months, we will have not one but several pups. Several, not just one. Moon Goddess! One must be a girl who looks exactly like her mother, that is my dearest wish.I keep staring at her dreamily."MATE! Is this the first time you see me? I already know that I am breathtakingly beautiful.” I blink a few times and now see Mercedes looking me sternly in the face with her hands on her hips, bending over. I smile
