Alister’s POV

"You are not supposed to be here..." Luciana mumbled in a shaky voice as Alister entered the room and closed the door.

Alister paused by the door to stare at his mate. She looked more fragile than she had been the night he first rescued her.

He sniffed the air; it was damp and heavy, meaning she had been crying. Maybe she was sorry for what she had done.

"I’m where I’m supposed to be..." Alister retorted a bit harshly, moving further into the room.

Lucia took a step back, only stopping because she could not move back any further because of the bed there. He sighed, tucking his hands inside his pockets.

Surely Luciana was not scared of him, so wherever the thought was coming from, she had to be insecure.

Luciana sighed, dragging her hand through her hair. "I’m sorry... I shouldn’t have left the welcoming party line: " she apologized.

That was not what he was expecting to hear first, but they could start from there and work their way through this tension between them. She

    Alister’s POVAlister was currently perched on the edge of his table, while Wilson was occupying one of the couches in his office. They were waiting for Elijah to show up, and it was a bit shocking that his beta had not shown up at the office, considering how punctual the guy was."I can’t believe I came in before him," he muttered, causing Wilson to scoff.After the talk he had with Luciana the previous day, they both took the boys home and stayed at home together. It had been a while since they had family time together that didn’t involve the pack.He felt refreshed and renewed and was ready to take the day, only to come into the office that morning and find out that Elijah had yet to arrive."It’s unlike him... Should I give him a call again?" Alister asked Wilson.Wilson shook his head and said, "Elijah told us he’s on his way. No need calling him; we’ll wait." He said that, looking down at his tablet. He was probably working.Alister didn’t know how long Wilson was going to sta

    Alister’s POVAlister’s heart beat raced as he ran through the woods after Matt. He was not in his wolf form, but he was still fast. Many scenarios ran through his mind about what might have happened, but he pushed them down.Matt had not told him anything other than that he needed to see whatever it was urgently and for himself.He sighed as they approached the cliff where they raced to during their morning run. He didn’t need to go any further to know what had happened.The smell of blood hit his nose, and he had to cover his nostrils because it was very strong. The smell was heavy and it filled the air.He paused, trying to calm his raging heart and breathe in fresh air. "How many are they?The smell of blood is strong" he asked Matt, who had stopped too.Matt shook his head. "You should see it yourself," he replied.Alister huffed a sigh and waved him forward. They crossed the bridge and then rounded the cliff on the other side, leading to the back of the edge.The first thing he c

He had just been speaking to a senior member of the Council, hoping they would promptly take action after telling them of the dead bodies he had seen in Alpha Alister's pack. However, to his dismay, they were opting for an investigation instead of storming the Black moon pack. This unexpected turn left him annoyed. He hated the process the council took sometimes and this time, it was clear that Alister had someone in the council who was watching out for him.The land he had been aiming for was almost in his grasp, so near. Yet, it felt as if it was slipping away from his reach. He let out a sigh, allowing himself to sink into his chair. Raising his gaze, he looked at Kent, his beta, standing patiently before him and waiting for him to give the order"Kent, get a scout ready to monitor the council's activities, we need to know if they would make a move…" Reed instructed. He wasn't

    Elijah’s POVElijah was distracted. Maybe by his emotions or feelings, or perhaps by what had been happening in the pack lately since Alpha Reed showed up, whichever one, he was distracted and couldn’t even find the focus to work.He looked at the letter on the screen again and sighed. Whatever Alpha Reed’s plan was, he was sure to cause trouble for them. The letter was a summon by the council, and he didn’t need to read further to know what it was about.They were expecting two council members in their pack that morning, and then Reed submitted a petition to the council for their land. At this rate, the council might as well take over their pack.There were times when Elijah felt that he had lost control of things, and that moment was one of them. What went wrong? he thought. They had been functioning well as a pack, even after Alister’s uncle’s attack, so what went wrong? Luciana.The name echoed in his thoughts, and he couldn’t help but agree. He loved Alister to pieces, and that

    Elijah’s POVElijah saw Alister come out of the front office, and their eyes briefly met before he looked away. He could feel the awkwardness between them, and he hated it. He waited for Alister to get closer to him before he started walking towards the elders.The elders packed their vehicle and climbed out as they both approached. When Elijah saw the elder whom the council had sent, he smiled. At least they had sent the elder who was familiar with them and not someone else, even though something told him that these elders were not the right people to investigate the case.As long as he had known elder Henry, the elder had been majorly focused on training werewolves with abilities, not playing detective.“ Elder Henry… Welcome to the Black Moon Pack… Alister greeted one of the elders and nodded at the other, who was climbing out from the other side of the car.“Alpha Alister… Good to see you again,“ elder Henry said, extending his hand to Alister.Alister grabbed the elder’s hand a

    Elijah’s POV “okay…” Elder Henry shifted in his seat.“ the dark fangs pack… Do they recruit rogues to do their bidding?” he asked.The other elder cleared his throat to get Elder Henry’s attention before shaking his head. How the fuck did the council send two ignorant elders to come investigate a case as complicated as this? He thought.Elijah pursed his lips in anger, “They don’t recruit rogues to do their bidding; they are a rogue pack with a rogue Alpha. We submitted this information when they attacked, but I think it’s clear that the council has no plans of capturing these rogues and serving justice,” he fired.“ Elijah!” Alister warned him, but he ignored his friend and boldly excused himself from the office, making sure to bang the door for effect.Alister could continue without him. He had merely left there because he didn’t want to offend Elder Henry any further, because if he had remained, he wasn’t sure what he was going to say and he sure would regret it.The same counc

They were still kids and had little to nothing to worry about. She just hoped that none would get hurt this time around.Luciana heard the front door opened and knew immediately that it was her mate who had just entered the house. His scent filled the house instantly. “Daddy bear is back!” She shouted loud enough to be heard by the boys and heard their heavy footsteps as they ran down the stairs to go meet Alister.She quickly removed the clothes from the washing machine and placed them into the basket. Doing laundry these days made her feel relieved and relaxed.After sorting out everything about her past with Alister, she felt like a heavy burden had been lifted from her shoulders. She was no longer walking on eggshells and was happy that they could now

    Luciana’s POVLuciana couldn’t sleep at all that night. She had a lot on her mind, and one of them was trying to get Elijah to forgive her as well as fix things with him. She turned to look at Alister who was dozing softly next to her, oblivious of her troubles. At least he could sleep in peace and not be bothered by what was going on.She sighed softly, turning to the other side and tried to force herself to sleep, but a piercing scream interrupted her, waking up Alister in an instant.She didn’t need to be told twice, she knew the scream had come from the house and it had to be one of the boys.“ what the fuck!” Alister shouted as he rushed out of bed, immediately wearing his discarded shorts.She too climbed out of bed, grabbing her robe and throwing it on her shoulders. Alister was already out of the room, before she was done.Luciana ran out and followed Alister into the boys room. With the threat of an attack brewing in the pack, it was possible that someone had invaded h

    I year later The wind blew again, this time stronger than the first. Alister adjusted the thick fur cloak on Luciana’s shoulders and smiled as she buried her head in the crook of his arms. In her condition, she wasn’t supposed to be there but she was as stubborn as him. “Do you think she’s looking down on us and regretting what she did?" Luciana mumbled. Alister sighed; he knew that Ophelia regretted what she did and that was why she had killed herself, but he didn't know whether she had found peace in the afterlife. “I hope she found peace after all”, he mumbled. “ I miss her…the kids too” Luciana said. Alister nodded. He wouldn’t admit it, but he also missed her. He had forgiven her for what she did and would have loved it if Ophelia knew that she was forgiven. They stayed that way for a while before someone cleared their throat behind them. He knew who it was even before he turned to face the person. Elijah was standing there with a white rose in his hands, Ophelia’s favorit

    Alister’s POVThe fight is in full force, and so far, the Black Moon pack seems to be holding their own. He looked around the fighting ground once again and couldn’t spot his uncle Helster. He knew his uncle’s wolf by now. If Helster’s wolf wasn’t on the battlefield, then where was he?A rogue charged at him, and he pounced on the wolf, tearing its spine away from its body and killing it instantly. The more Rogues they fight and kill, the more additional Rogues charge out of the woods.He saw Elijah finishing off another rogue, and his mind linked to him.“Helster is not here; why?”Elijah turned around and shifted into his human form. He ran back to where Alister was standing, already shifted into his human form.“I wouldn't want to believe that he’s hiding." Alister said.Elijah shook his head and said, “He wants the pack; he’s not hiding. I think he wants to sneak into the pack from another border. Catch us unawares." he said.Just then, as Alister wanted to respond, Peter’s

She felt relieved that things were indeed working in their favor.Luciana shifted in her chair. She was waiting for their case to be called, like every other person who was there. She looked around, trying to see if Alpha Reed was already there, but she didn’t see him.Maybe it was a good thing that they would meet inside and not out in the open, she didn't know if she could control herself if she saw him out there in the open.“Black Velvet Pack!" a werewolf standing by the door called.She saw an Alpha stand up and walk into the room where the hearing was being held. Their case was the next one; she had seen the order earlier when Wilson had spoken to her.She pulled the folder out and held it firmly on her lap. The future of their pack depended on her, and as much as she had been the one who had caused all th

    Alister’s POVIt was hard. Knowing that his mate was somewhere in the council, doing what he was supposed to be doing, was hard. It had been hard letting her go, and even now, he had to restrict himself from entering a car and driving to the council." Daddy… I want to pee." Keita said, tapping his leg.Alister rolled his eyes, looking down at the boy. “You just did that like five minutes ago”, he mumbled.Keita frowned. “I know, but I still want to go. Mom would be upset if I peed on myself,” he said, pouting his lips.Alister shook his head. Either Keita was missing his mother and didn’t know how to communicate his feelings, or he was trying to be difficult and frustrate him. He suspected it was both.“Fine, let’s go”, he said, picking Keita up. The moment he moved to leave, Omar jumped up from the chair and followed them. Alister sighed. It was going to be hard trying to pull Omar away from him when the time came to defend the pack, and Luciana was not yet back.Thankfully, the re

    Reed’s POVReed arrived at the council the next morning. He could feel his victory, and that gave him the confidence to enter the council building. He still had time before the hearing, so he decided to pay a visit to Veronica, his mother.Her office was not far from the academy. He climbed the stairs and walked down the hallway until he got to her door.He knocked twice and waited for her response before pushing the door open and entering the small office. His mother was sitting behind her desk, and she looked like she had never aged since he last saw her.Veronica lifted her head and the surprise on her face was obvious. He didn't blame her for being shocked at him standing in her office; he too would be shocked if he were in her position.Growing up, they never had the best mother-son relationship. She was more like a figure who was just there beside his father. He hated her for that—for not loving him like every other mother loved their children.She pulled the glasses off her fac

She could hear the different voices gathered in her living room to bid her goodbye.She sighed and dragged her luggage out of the room, walking down the stairs.“Oh Lucia." Ophelia mumbled, coming up to her to envelope her in a huge hug. Luciana buried herself in the hug.It wasn’t that she was going away from the council for long. Hell, she was just going to be gone for two or three days, so she didn't understand why they were all acting like she was going to be gone for a year.“Take care of yourself and my boys,” she muttered close to Ophelia’s ears.Ophelia nodded her head and released her. “I will. Stay safe,” she said, taking the luggage from Luciana and carrying it outside towards the waiting car.Alister was the next one to come up to her. He was holding Omar, who had refused to let him go and was clinging to him.“You can

    Reed’s POVReed was restless. That was the only word sufficient to describe his state of mind and how he was feeling right now. He hated when things were not within his control.He sighed, dragging his fingers through his hair for the umpteenth time as he paced in front of his desk. A few more days and he would get his heart's desire—the land he had desired for years—and even though it was now within reach, he hated the fact that it was not within his control.Helster was coordinating everything, and the rogue Alpha had warned him to stay put until he gave the command.He checked the time, and as if in sync, someone knocked on his door. He took a deep breath and waited.“ Come in," he answered.The door opened, and a man entered his office, closing the door behind him. Just the person he had been waiting for.“You're late…" Reed fired.The man sighed. “I'm sorry, Alpha, it took a great deal of trying to navigate my way to your pack and to avoid being noticed,” he replied.Reed rolled

    Luciana's POVShe recoiled in shock. Even though there was a possibility that Alister must have told Elijah about Alpha Reed, she didn’t think he would tell Elijah about Keita’s real father too.Elijah shook his head and said, “I deduced it myself. Don’t think Alister told me. The day Alpha Reed visited the pack, on his way out, he bumped into Keita,” he said.Luciana felt her heart race as her breath hitched. What? Alpha Reed had met Keita. No one told her that. She felt angry that she had not been there to protect Keita from the Alpha.A different kind of fear enveloped her as she thought of Alpha Reed discovering Keita's true identity. He wouldn’t have noticed that Keita was his son, right? She looked at Elijah, noticing now that her eyes were blurry.“He didn't...” she started to ask, but Elijah reassured her by shaking his head."no, I didn't let him touch Keita. However, he noticed how their scents were familiar. Everything started to make sense then. why you would hide the lett

She had not bothered discussing her decision with Alister that morning; she already knew what he was going to say to her.She was not surprised when she entered the office building and saw people already on the ground floor. They were preparing for an attack, and everyone was on alert.She strolled up the stairs to the alpha’s office floor and gently closed the gap between Alister’s office and Elijah’s office. She could see light coming out from under Elijah’s door and knew immediately that the beta was around.Luciana gently knocked on the door, and when she heard a grunted reply, she turned the handle and entered the office.Elijah was currently sitting behind his desk and had not looked up at her since she entered.
