Tyler kept pacing, his mind unsettled. Although his energy was back to the fullest, and he felt invisible, he somewhat felt lost and in pain, but it wasn't physical. It was rather emotional. His thought drifted to Lana. He could feel her discomfort, hear her sobbing, and scent the shift in her floral smell.He had gone on a walk, thinking it would've helped. He even ended up working out, numerously punching the innocent trees, thinking it would subdue the hurt. Still, it got nowhere. Coming back and accidentally crashing in on Lana taking her bath, awoke all his emotions and dilemma.What even broke him more was the betrayal. He didn't know how to forgive that. All his life, he has been surrounded by disciplined people who feared betraying him because they knew the consequences of doing so.In a bid to cool his head, Tyler opted to take a quick bath too. He took a steady path out of his tent to the waterfall, where he allowed the cold stream of liquid, to cascade down his body. As free
The night was terrible for Lana. She felt guilty so much it kept her awake all night. Little did she know that her moments of twisting and turning led to the day breaking without her getting any sleep. She felt a sense of tension between her and Tyler. She had barely slept at all the previous night, her mind racing with thoughts of their relationship and the future. As she saw him outside, she took a deep breath, trying to calm her nerves.Immediately, she dressed in one of the loose tracks and a hoodie, dashing outside. She was prone to trying to get him to probably act differently toward her. “Good morning, Tyler,” she said softly. “Morning,” he replied, not meeting her gaze. Lana could feel her heart sinking. She knew that nothing changed between them, but she still wanted to try harder.“Pack up. We're taking the bikes to the main house,” he said to her.Lana was surprised by the proposal, but she agreed to go along with it. “Sure, that sounds like a good idea,” she said. Fran
Lana's mind was distracted to the point nothing that Aragon or Frankie said made sense to her. She was lost in thought and overwhelmed by emotions. Still, she tried to fake commitment to their conversation until they noticed.“Luna, did you even sleep last night? Your eyebags are visible,” Frankie pointed out, cutting through leaves that opposed their walk.“Yes, I did,” Lana lied, trying to put up a facade. She wasn't going to be vulnerable before these guys again. Put up a show of strength, for as long as it lasted. “Why didn't we change the packhouse to this place after realizing the threat from Annik? Lives would have been saved.”“The timeframe to convey everyone was short,” Frankie explained. “The best thing was to stay back and defend our pack. No matter how we tried to escape, they would've caught up with us.”It wasn't making sense to her, but she didn't want to push further too. “What do you guys know about mindlock?” she suddenly asked.Both of them stopped in their tracks,
“Viktor, I thought you didn't make it,” Lana added, ignoring Tyler's emotionless attitude. “I was so worried about all of you,” she said, her voice shaking.“It's good to have you back,” Kamala hugged her, sobbing uncontrollably.Levi gently slapped Frankie and Aragon across the shoulder. “How did you guys survive?” Tyler finally asked.Leading them through the darkly light tunnel to the full square of the basement, “when they gathered us to set the cells on fire, two of the prisoners they put us with, showed us the crack they've been creating to escape. Collectively, with our powers, we worked faster. Soon, we made it to the hole. As many cubs as we could lead, we led out with those prisoners. When Annik's came back and saw that our cell was empty, they just set it on fire. I'm thinking that they didn't dare report to him that we had escaped for fear of their lives.”The tunnel wasn't brightly lit, but, since they knew their way around, Kamala just led Lana by the hand until they go
Tyler took a quick shower and returned to join them. They went over and over the relocation plan. All the while, they were alert in case of intrusion, occasionally taking turns to go check out the area.Lana brought to light all she learned from the Lowells, encouraging Tyler that they could seek help from these unknown wolves. Who could be trusted was the issue, but it was better to cast their bread on the water with faith than recoil to fighting alone since Annik's power has spread throughout territories.When they finalized, Tyler went around, checking on the cubs before taking the guys to go stand watch. Lana was left with Kamala, who was sadly packing things while occasionally sobbing.From behind, she hugged her. Lana understood that Kamala felt like she was alone. She hadn't really been around to know what happened, so Kamala sat her down and told her everything. Including Katida's betrayal.She felt bad but didn't want Kamala to feel her discomfort as well, adding to her miser
Tyler silently led the survivors back to the Island. The ride was sad, only the waves of the sea slapping hard against the boats. By nightfall, they were at the entrance of the Island. Carefully, the men led others through, driving them on bikes back to the Mansion.As the survivors approached the mansion, they were met with a grand entranceway. The double doors were made of solid oak and stood tall, guarding the entrance to the luxurious home. Tyler led the way, using his keycard to disarm the security system and allow them inside.Even Lana was properly observing the place for the first time, as there was less tension in the air. She was a bit relaxed and far past walking on eggshells.Once inside, the group was awestruck by the opulence of the mansion. The main foyer was adorned with crystal chandeliers, marble floors, and ornate pillars. The living room was equally impressive, with plush velvet sofas, a grand TV set, and floor-to-ceiling windows that offered a breathtaking view of
Viktor left Kamala's room with a heavy heart, his mind still preoccupied with the loss of her sisters. He found Alpha Tyler and the security team huddled around a table in the security room, studying a map of the island. “Viktor,” Tyler acknowledged his presence with a nod. “We're just going over the security plan for the next few days. We need to make sure everyone is safe.” Viktor nodded, taking a seat beside Tyler. “I agree. What's the plan?” Tyler pointed to the map, indicating a few key locations. “We've identified a few spots where the girls and cubs would probably move around, while here. We'll need to secure those areas and have additional security on standby in case of any threats. I have no idea what Annik is thinking, but we shouldn't be caught unaware” Viktor studied the map, his mind racing with potential scenarios. He knew the dangers the pack had recently faced and how unpredictable things could get. It still marveled him how Tyler was able to effectively handle thin
Lana tossed and turned in bed, unable to find a comfortable position. The pain in her stomach had subsided, but her mind was still racing, and sleep seemed elusive. She decided to get up and take a walk around. As she walked past Kamala's room, she heard the sound of muffled sobs coming from inside. Lana hesitated for a moment, unsure if she should go in. But the sound of her tears was too much to bear, and she pushed the door open gently. Inside, Kamala was hunched over on her bed, her shoulders shaking with each sob. Lana's heart broke at the sight of her friend's pain. “Oh, Kamala,” she said softly, her voice filled with sympathy. “I'm so sorry.” Kamala looked up at her, her eyes red and puffy. “Lana,” she whispered, her voice barely above a whisper. “I'm sorry. I didn't mean to wake you.” Lana shook her head, her heart heavy. “You don't need to apologize,” she said. “I just wish I could do something to help.” Kamala let out a bitter laugh, her tears flowing freely once again
The soft rays of the morning sun painted the room in a warm golden hue as Lana cradled her newborn daughter, Kaylida, in her arms. She was a replica of her father, Tyler but had gotten her mother's hair. She was the best gift to the United pack, loved by all.The little one cooed gently, her tiny fingers grasping at the air. Tyler stood beside Lana, his eyes filled with awe and love for the precious gift they had been blessed with.Nine months had passed since Kaylida's arrival, and the family decided to celebrate by going on a picnic. They invited Kamala, to join them. The tranquility of the pack's garden provided the perfect setting for a relaxing day under the azure sky.As they set up their picnic spot, Lana saw the memorial stand nearby. It bore the names of fallen loved ones: Elijah, Kaylee, Katida, and many others. A wave of bittersweet memories washed over her, and she felt compelled to honor their memory.Lana turned to Tyler, her voice filled with emotion. "I'm glad we decid
Several months later...Months have passed with Tyler and his community doing nothing but rebuilding. He had Kamala brought over to join them. The land has brought together several packs focused on making the King's pack unmatchable.Lana agreed to have everything attributed to her past buried as it was a long time. A few times, she heard from Jack and Alpha Raven.Amid the reimagined Pure Crescent pack, a vibrant tapestry of unity and diversity unfolded. The once desolate lands had transformed into a breathtaking haven of life and serenity. As Tyler and Lana strolled together, their footsteps accompanied by the gentle rustling of leaves and the sweet scent of blooming flowers, their eyes beheld the beauty that surrounded them.Fields of wildflowers stretched as far as the eye could see, their colors blending harmoniously, painting the landscape with hues of crimson, gold, and azure. The air was alive with the melodic chorus of birdsong, and the delicate whispers of the wind through t
Afterward, he clasped her against him so tightly, it was to the point of pain. She needed it and wanted him to squeeze her even harder.They had no idea how long they remained like that, hearts thundering together, his hips softly rocking. Hours might have passed. When the now aggressive air began to flog their skin through the open window. "Is there a bathroom here?" Tyler questioned.Lana nodded pointing to the closed door on the left.Tyler didn't pull out. He carried her, with him buried deep in her straight to the bathroom. It was a simple one with a shower head, bathtub, and toilet area which was demarcated by a transparent glass. There was a cabinet with toiletries and towels and a bug full-length mirror.Tyler carried Lana under the showerhead, switching in the water with a free hand. The water from the showerhead began sputtering. Nonchalantly, he gave both of them a rinse without pulling away.Lana giggled, her breathing hoarse. "You do know that we need a proper bath after
Like an addict yearning for her drugs, Lana shuddered as Tyler teased.Once she managed to reach the heavy weight of his cock, he rasped, “Use it.”She rocked her hips up as she pulled his shaft to her. When the head made contact with her pussy, he bit out a curse, his length jerking in her hand. Panting, she ran the crown up and down between her swollen, flaring lips.“So slick,” he growled. “So ready for me.”As she petted her clit with the bulbous tip, his towering body shuddered with need. “Enough teasing. Wanted this too long.”He covered her hand with his own, fitting the crown against her entrance, pressing forward just a fraction. As soon as she knew without any doubt that she was about to have the best moment of her life that has been denied for months, she relaxed.He pulled their hands away, then began easing deeper, wedging the broad head inside. Her gasp was cut off by his lips, hungry and insistent as he sank his cock farther. Each inch forced her to stretch more and mo
The whole place was still in a frenzy as the dead and injured were being carried out. As Lana swayed her hips ahead of Tyler trying to help in whatever way she could, Tyler pulled her aside.Cupping her face with both of his hands, he brushed his thumbs over her cheekbones. “I need you," he whispered against her ears, and his breathing quickened."I need you too," Lana replied. "However, the pack needs us more. We need to put things in place. We have to decide where everyone would settle before we can have our moment," Lana reminded him as she ran her slender fingers through his now lengthy hair.The last thing as having a haircut and trimming his beard has been at the far corner of Tyler's head due to the whole commotion.He burrowed his stare into Lana's eyes, smiling proudly at her. He couldn't believe that he had almost given up such a wonderful soul due to anger. He was beyond glad that they found their way back to each other.With a calm face, he wrapped his hand around Lana's w
As the smoke cleared and the victorious warriors gathered, Lana and Tyler stood on the grand balcony overlooking the battlefield, the weight of their recent triumph heavy on their shoulders. Annik knelt by their side, his eyes reflecting a mix of embarrassment and anger. The gathered wolves, both from the Pure Crescent pack and other clans that had come to their aid, watched with bated breath, their attention fixed on the trio who had emerged triumphant. The wounds of the battle were evident on their bodies, but their spirits burned with newfound hope. With a commanding voice that resonated across the assembled wolves, Tyler spoke, his words carrying the weight of authority and compassion. "Today, we have emerged victorious, not just as separate packs, but as one united force. We have proven that when we stand together, there is no darkness we cannot overcome." A chorus of howls echoed in response, a symbol of unity and agreement from the wolves who had fought valiantly side by side
As Lana and Ryler joined forces to combat Annik, trying to save the fate of their world that teetered on a fragile edge, the strength of the other packs that had joined hands with them increased too. Lana kept striking blows until Annik shoved her hand on the chest, causing her to swerve back. Her gaze locked with Alpha Annik's hauntingly possessed eyes. She clutched her knuckles so right that they turned white. "You ruined the lives of the innocent, and changed fates, so you could have power. Until your head has been fed to the crocodiles, I will not rest!" she promised.Alpha Annik's possessed voice resonated with a sinister undertone, distorted and chilling. "Foolish girl! You cannot comprehend the power that flows through me. Prepare to face your demise!" With a swift motion, Annik unleashed a wave of dark energy, causing the ground to tremble beneath their feet.Tyler, his eyes burning with determination, stepped in front of Lana, shielding her from the brunt of the attack. He g
"Do something!" he roared at the witches.Before they were able to take another step, with agile grace, Tyler launched himself into the fray, his movements calculated and precise. He evaded Annik's frenzied attacks, his keen instincts guiding him through the chaos. Each clash of their fangs and clash of their claws echoed with the weight of their shared history, their former brotherhood.Amidst the battle, Tyler's voice rang out, laced with sorrow and urgency. "I can't believe you did this to me. To our family"Lana who had managed to invade from the east side showed no mercy as her talons dug into the neck of her enemies. With Jack and his sister by her sister, they were in the Sapohore room in no time.With a full blast of wind, "sisters!" Alpha Raven yelled at the three witches, who hissed in disgust."If it isn't our father's favorite daughter, I wonder who it would be?" the witches sneered, turning into a gigantic python.Tyler was invested in his attack on Annik, that he paid li
"Who are we?" The couple burst out laughing.Giving him a gentle push, "Don't be silly, son. Go join your siblings to play. We have an important occasion to attend shortly," his father informed.Tyler couldn't believe his eyes. "I won't take a walk," he announced to his parents who absentmindedly gave him a nod. Whatever they were discussing was more important than their son who wasn't in the mood to play with his siblings.At once, Tyler's spirit in his trance left his body so that he could see the whole of where he was. He remembered the place from his constant nightmare about the fire.In the heart of the countryside, nestled amidst rolling green hills, stood a breathtaking mansion. Its exterior was a vision of elegance, boasting a harmonious blend of classic architecture and vibrant nature. Surrounding the mansion was a meticulously landscaped garden, ablaze with a riot of colors. Blooming flowers of all kinds, their petals delicate and vibrant, adorned the grounds, filling the ai
