Luciana's POV

As soon as Alister left the house, Luciana's mind started to race. She had a nagging feeling that something was off, but she couldn't quite put her finger on what it was.

Wanting to be near her son, she made her way to Keita's room and laid down beside him. She knew that waking him up was unnecessary, but her maternal instincts were in full swing.

As Luciana lay there, she heard another alarm go off, and her frown deepened. "What could be going on?" she wondered.

The fact that the alarm had gone off twice was even more concerning. She couldn't shake the feeling that something was wrong, but she tried her best to keep calm and not wake up Keita.

Just as she started to drift off, Keita stirred in his sleep, and she gently rubbed his back to soothe him. She didn't want him to sense her anxiety, so she put on a brave face and hoped that it was just a false alarm.

However, her thoughts kept drifting to the pack of rogues that had attacked Noah's family. Alister had briefed

    Luciana's POVLuciana stood there for a moment, breathing heavily, her heart pounding in her chest. She knew that she had just taken a life, and it was a heavy burden to bear. But in that moment, she also knew that it had been necessary. She had been fighting for her life, her son and her pack.She looked down at the man's body, feeling a sense of both satisfaction and regret. It was a brutal, violent act, but it was also a necessary one. She couldn't afford to let her guard down, not even for a moment. Not when the pack was under attack.As Luciana stood there, catching her breath, she noticed the second man starting to move towards her, his eyes fixed on her with a look of fury. She knew she had to act fast, before he could grab her or even shift into a wolf.She pulled the knife from the dead man’s heart, watching blood splatter on her floor.Without hesitation, Luciana lunged forward, grabbing the second man by the arm and twisting it behind his back. She pushed him forward, pinn

    ~ Alister's POV~Alister's mind was racing as he bolted up the stairs towards Keita's room. The sound of his pounding footsteps echoed through the hallway, adding to the tension that was already building inside him. The shout that had come from Keita's room had been so bloodcurdling, so full of fear and pain, that Alister could feel his own heart racing in response. He desperately hoped that he wasn't too late, that he could still save Keita from whatever danger had befallen him.As he reached the door to Keita's room, Alister paused for a brief moment, his hand hovering over the doorknob. He knew that he was about to confront a potentially horrific sight, and he steeled himself for what he might find on the other side. Taking a deep breath, he pushed open the door and burst into the room.The sight that greeted him was beyond anything he could have imagined. The bedroom was in shambles, with furniture overturned and clothes scattered across the floor.Alister's eyes scanned the room

    ~ Alister's POV~ A whine sounded in the room, pulling him out of his thoughts. Keita was still standing at the same spot looking too bold to be a child. He couldn’t possibly had killed a wolf who was perhaps ten times bigger than his size right? Because the sound had not come from him, but rather the other wolf in the room. What shocked Alister was that instead of the wolf to be attacking Keita or stalking him, ready to tear the child to pieces, it was whimpering at the corner of the room, looking scared. Why would a wolf look scared? Alister was confused and didn't know what to make of the situation. Why would a wolf be afraid of a child? And why hadn't it attacked Keita? Before he could process what was happening, Luciana pushed her way past him and rushed over to Keita. She wrapped the child in a tight embrace, whispering comforting words in his ear. Alister could see that the boy was shaking with fear, but also with adrenaline. He must have been terrified during the attack. As

    ~ Alister's POV~Elijah's heart pounded against his chest as he surveyed the chaotic scene before him. The ground was littered with the bodies of fallen wolves, both rogue and from his own pack. The air was thick with the metallic scent of blood and the sounds of growls, snarls, and yelps filled his ears.He noticed the path that Alister had cleared for him before he heard Alister’s voice in his head, “ go Elijah! Get to the pack house!... Go” Alister shouted through the mind link.The pack house was the heart of the pack's territory, the place where they gathered and took refuge in times of crisis. It was heavily fortified and well-guarded, but the recent attacks had taken a toll on their defenses. There were some warriors there, but most of them were either injured or not able to defend the pack house. Elijah knew that if the rogue wolves breached the pack house, the consequences would be dire.Alister had already cleared a path for Elijah, but the young wolf hesitated. "Are you su

    ~ Elijah's POV~The scene before Elijah was one of utter devastation. As he looked around at the corpses of his fallen pack mates and fellow warriors, he felt a sense of hopelessness wash over him. These were wolves he had trained with for years, wolves he had shared countless battles and victories with. And now, they were gone. He felt nauseous, seeing the sights.He couldn't help but gasp in shock and horror at the sight before him, his knees buckling beneath him. If it weren't for Matt, who was holding him up against the wall, he would have crumpled to the ground in despair. It was difficult to come to terms with the fact that so many of their own had perished in this terrible conflict.As he struggled to compose himself, Matt's voice cut through his despair like a knife. "Elijah," he said, his tone firm but gentle. "You need to pull yourself together and tell us what to do. Alister isn't here, and you're in charge now." Matt added.Elijah's mind raced as he considered the gravity

    ~ Alister's POV~Alister's heart sank as he laid eyes upon Noah, sprawled out on the cold, hard floor of the home he had generously provided for the young man. A wave of emotions washed over him as he observed his son, tears streaming down his face, propping his head up on his leg in a desperate attempt to find solace in this moment of profound grief.With a heavy sigh, Alister slowly made his way towards them, his footsteps filled with a somber familiarity. He had experienced this exact pain before, the anguish of losing a father figure, and he understood all too well the overwhelming sense of hurt, abandonment, and disorientation that engulfed Noah's heart.As he approached, Alister turned to Elijah, who stood quietly by his side, seeking solace in his presence. "The Omega kid?" he inquired, his voice filled with a mix of concern and curiosity, as he sought answers in this sea of sorrow.Elijah's eyes darted around the room, searching for a glimpse of understanding before returning

    ~ Alister's POV~"Alister," Elijah called, his voice breaking through the fog of Alister's thoughts.Alister let out a weary sigh, forcing back the tears that threatened to spill from his eyes. The weight of the losses they had suffered today was heavier than any he had experienced before. He followed Elijah outside, stepping into the aftermath of the recent events. Though the pack members had already carried away the fallen, the air still hung heavy with the scent of blood, a somber reminder of the tragedy that had unfolded.As Omar's sobs subsided, Alister reached out and gently patted the young boy's shoulders, providing a comforting presence as he buried his face in Alister's neck, seeking solace."We need to regroup, to plan our next steps," Elijah suggested, his voice filled with a mix of determination and understanding. "The fallen will be laid to rest with the respect they deserve, but after that, we must address the pack's needs. It won't be easy for a grieving alpha, but y

    ~ Luciana's POV~Luciana woke up with suddenly, fear gripping her heart. She felt that something was not right. She turned on the bed to see that the space beside her was empty and Alister was not there. It was also cold, meaning the space had been empty for long.She frowned, climbing out of the bed. Ever since the attack on the pack, everyone has been on edge. The once friendly and happy pack was no longer booming with joy. People were scared of coming out of their houses.They were all still recovering from the attack, she knew that. But their recovery was taking longer than she anticipated. She sighed, sensing Alister’s presence in the house. She left her room and climbed down the stairs to the kitchen to see him working. He had a laptop on and was furiously typing on it. He looked up the moment she entered the kitchen and smiled as she approached him.“Hey babe… “ she said, kissing his cheek.Alister pulled her into his laps and nuzzled into her, “ Hey… what are you doing u

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

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 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.

    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

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 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

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
