I took a quick shower, attempted to dry my hair, wore another green dress, slid my gladiators on and left my room.The light energy Raphael had installed in me never left me as I climbed down the stairs and entered the wide hall.Instead of going to the kitchen to help the omegas prepare breakfast, I decided to go to the pack hospital first. I wanted to get the medicine over with before I go to work. I can't really call it work when they don't really allow me to work much.As I stepped out of the main pack house and closed the door behind me, the people outside all turned to look at me. I still haven't gotten used to their eyes. They stare at me everywhere I go. I get it. I'm someone who is related to man who committed mass murder in their pack, taking away their fathers, their mothers, their daughter and their sons. But now, I'm someone who is sticking to their Alpha, someone who might even smell like him.How did I not thought of that?I might have taken a shower this morning, but
Raphael Star...The last thing I wanted to do was leave the warm bed and my Zinnia. All I wanted to do was hold her in my arms for the rest of the entire day.But, Silver mind linked me to tell me that the boarder patrols had came across a different scent.So, I had to leave Zinnia to see if everything was okay.My entire body was radiating with unimaginable energy when I walked out of the main pack house.My people could immediately tell that there was something different about me. One of the things was that my scent was slightly different.Because Zinnia's wolf is caged and because she is now on wolves bane, her scent is almost gone. I can scent her out because she is my mate, but for the rest, they could barely scent her.But, because she and I bonded on a deeper level the previous night, I am to smell more like her and she is to smell more like me. Once she gets her wolf back and she marks me, the bond will be completed. Only two more weeks to go.When I arrived at the
Mina Wolf...It killed me to close the door and lock it again when all I wanted to do was talk to him, ask him what I wanted to ask him. But my fear overcame my need to have him in the room I was staying in.I was like a Zombie the entire day. I just went through the motions, trying not to think about the wolves bane I've been drinking for the last two weeks without even knowing that I was drinking wolves bane.But I couldn't stop thinking about it.There was one part of me that really wanted to go find Raphael and talk to him. But if the intentions behind this is truly evil, I knew it would break me more. Which was why I stopped myself from going to his study.The entire time I was in the kitchen to help the Omegas make Lunch and Dinner, the entire time I was outside of the main pack house because I couldn't stomach any food, the entire time Beatrice was braiding my hair, my mind was elsewhere.I couldn't stop thinking about it.The night I'd shared with Raphael was too real
Raphael Stars...It was chaos.The one wolf that attacked me was powerful. As a matter of fact, all of the wolves were powerful. They were bug and looked like they were well trained.My attacker had the advantage of his shifted wolf while my wolf was suddenly silent.He didn't want to fight. I didn't know why, at least not at the beginning.All that was on my mind was to keep my little green flower safe from these sudden attackers. I was afraid they might hurt her.Our argument was soon forgotten as I carried on to fight.The few wolves who were up and had heard my message through the mind link were also fighting. The three wolves they were fighting were cunning, unimaginably strong and trained. Other than a few scratches, the wolves weren't badly injured. And for some reason, the three wolves were not out to kill, only the one fighting me was.I heard Zinnia's scream and my heart split in to two, my mind immediately imagining the worse things possible.I looked around wi
Mina Wolf...I kept my eyes closed as Blaze continued to run with me thrown over his shoulder.I'd long stopped fighting him, feeling too dizzy to even think straight.The further Blaze too me away from Raphael, the more pull I was feeling towards him. I wanted to use my entire being to fight my way off of Blaze's shoulder and find my way back to Raphael. I wanted to make sure that they were all fine. That chance was obviously lost when Blaze stopped running and dropped me down to my feet.I had to take a second to let my stomach settle and my head to stop spinning.Blaze opened the door of a pick up truck and pulled the front seat to the front to make room for the back."Get in." He ordered, huffing and puffing from the run he had with me in his shoulder.I looked at the back seat of the car and then looked over my shoulder."They'll be fine. They'll be here in a second. I need you to get in, Mina." Blaze commented, assuming that I was worried about my
I took about thirty minutes in the shower. And after me, my six brothers all took turn in the shower, taking only five to six minutes to wash the scent off of their skin.About an hour and a half later, we were back on the move.Havoc explained to me that they'd brought their own minivan from the pack but they decided to change it for the rescue. Now that their mission was over, we'll be taking the minivan back to home.Hearing home made my heart flutter. The home I knew for the last few weeks was oddly the only home I wanted to return to. But I knew which home he was talking about."You still smell like them. Haden is not going to like it." Steele commented, looking at me with narrowed eyes."You just worry about your own head. You don't want to almost lose it like you did last time." Blaze shot back, looking at Steele with mischievous eyes."Why? What happened last time?" I asked."Nothing." I was a bit started when the reply came from three of my brothers yelling out at the same ti
Raphael Stars...I stayed seated on my chair, leaning back and looking towards the window.I felt lost, utterly lost.No amount of words could explain the pain I was feeling.The panic in the pack has gone tej fold when everyone in the pack realized that Zinnia was gone. Many had tried to mind link me, probably wanting to ask me what was going on and why Zinnia was gone.But I pushed each of them out. I wasn't ready to have another confrontation like the one I had with Silver.I needed to be alone, think about my next step, calculate it well so I'd be able to grasp on reality better than I was at the moment.But all I could think about the my little green flower.My eyes were burning from the lack of sleep but I knew I couldn't go to the upper floor and sleep.I can't sleep without her.A few hours later, Silver walked in with the phone in his hand.It was very obvious that he still had more to say to me, accuse me of letting her go because I didn't want her here.Silver, w
Mina wolf...I did as Havoc told me to do and stayed in my room for the next three days without leaving even once. Havoc would come to my room with breakfast, Lunch and Dinner, always making sure that I ate before he left. And if he was too busy, he would make sure to send either Blaze or Maximus as they were the two light hearted wolf's of the main pack house.The two had tried to convince me to leave my room, but I made sure to say no.Blaze and Maximus tried thier best to hide it but I knew they could still smell the Blue Moon Pack on me. If they were able to scent it, then so would my father.The biggest plan as of now is to make sure to stay out of our father's sight. Havoc hasn't found something to mask the scent yet. The pack doctors we have in the Red Blood pack didn't have the source to grow this kinds of herbs. So, he'd been leaving pack territory to find near by places that sells the herb.So far, no luck.I've been cooked up in my room for three days and to be completely
Mina Wolf...I looked outside of the window, hoping to catch the sight of the moon. My heart was thundering in my chest.I reached up and pressed my hands against my chest, feeling how wild my heart was drumming.Today is the day.Dropping my hands, I looked towards the mirror.Dressed in a floor length, sleeveless green dress and my hair falling around me, I looked ready for my mating ceremony.This scenario felt quite familiar. But the difference is that the nerves I was feeling wasn't from fear, it was from excitement.It's been two years since the first time I met Raph, which was not in the best situation. And now, two years later, with our twins recently turning one, we were going to officially take each other as mates.Even though everyone knew we were mates, we wanted to keep the tradition.Havoc came to get me and the two of us made our way out of the main pack house and walked over to the large field where the ceremony will take place in the open.When we got there, I saw that
Raphael Stars...They kicked me out. They freaking kicked me out of the front room. I paced outside of the pack hospital, wanting to barge in to the front room and be by Zi's side. But angering Monika even more is probably not an option.It's been four hours and the sun was slowly coming up. Every single time Zinnia screamed, I could hear pain in her voice. Sweat was covering my entire body."Relax man, she'll be fine." Havoc commented and I couldn't stop myself from glaring at him.Havoc stood with his arm around Okla, looking all cozy when I'm about to lose my mind.Zi screamed again and I was close to marching myself back to the door when I heard a baby cry.My heart skipped a beat at the sound."Come in." Bear called out and I quickly ran in to the front room to see Monica holding a little bundle."Cut the cord." She ordered, seeming a little bit calmer than she was when she kicked me out.Bear offered me the medical scissor and I slowly cut the cord."Congratulations, Alph
We stood outside of the main pack house, about to say goodbye to my brothers.Last night had been one of the best nights of my life. Everyone had a blast, including my brothers.But now, it was time for them to go back.Their car was prepared and ready to go, I just had to say goodbye to them, which I didn't want to.Atlas looked at me, that same old robotic expression on his face. "Stay safe, Mina." He commented before he gave me a pat on my shoulder and walked away. I watched his climb in to the drivers seat of the car and close the door.I wish he would have at least given me a hug. We might not see each other again."Let him be, Mina. Atlas is allergic to his emotions." Blaze commented as he opened his arms and wrapped them around me.I hugged him back, taking in his brotherly love."Now, make sure you're safe, Okay Mina. Constantly worrying about your whereabouts is getting exhausting." He chuckled before he pulled away."You too , Havoc. Stay safe brother." He added as he gave
I woke up when someone placed their hand on my shoulder. Slowly pealing my tired eyes open, I looked at Raphael, who was smiling down at me.What a great thing to wake up to."Wake up, Zi." He whispered before I saw him leaning in to press his lips against mine and gave me a quick kiss.He pulled away a bit and offered me his hand.With a soft groan, I took his hands and he helped me sit up on the bed.The new room we were in, which was Raphael's old room before he and I started sharing a bed, was lit up.Not by actual lights but by his aura. Raphael felt light and that gloomy cloud that always followed him around no longer bothered him. I was happy to see that my Luna powers workedEven though it was exhausting, the training I had with the elders finally paid off.I looked towards the window and finally realized that it was night time. I let out a startled gasp before I returned my eyes to Raph."I slept the entire day?" I asked, to which Raphael nodded his head."You should have wok
I leaned against the head board of Raphael's old bed as Monika looked at the cut on the side of my swollen belly.Raphael sat down next to my feet, looking at the bloody X mark with a glare. I felt a bit uncomfortable with all the stares. Not Raphael's but the rest of my brothers.I glanced towards the window of the room and looked at my five brothers standing with their arms crossed over their chests and their back leaned against the window."You guys don't have to be here, you know." I commented. "You should get some rest. I'm sure you're tired.""We're fine." The reply came in a collective mumble, bringing a small smile to my lips."I know we're making you uncomfortable." Blaze smiled at me. "But it comes with the package of having too many older brothers. Deal with it." I gave him a playful glare before I looked at all of them."I'm fine, if that's what you guys are worried about." I commented, the smile still stretching my lips."We'll leave once we make sure you're okay." Atlas
Raphael walked around Haden's body and started walking over to me. He took off his shirt and wiped the blood off of his hands as much as he could before he reached for me.Sliding his hands around my waist, he slowly pulled my up to my feet and hugged me close. My knees were a bit weak so I leaned on Raphael, wrapping my arms around him and hugging him back. "Are you okay?" Raphael asked, leaning his chin against the top of my head."I'm fine." I replied, nodding my head a bit.Raphael pressed a kiss against the top of my head before he pulled away a bit and pressed his right hand in my belly.He avoided touching the X mark as he caressed my baby bump. I watched as he closed his eyes and focused on the baby, trying to listen to the heart beat.At the very moment, our baby kicked against his hand and Raphael opened his eyes to look down at the spot.It felt like our little one was telling us he was fine as well.Raphael leaned down to press his lips against mine, giving me a short ki
Mina Wolf...My head was pounding and my vision was getting blurry.The X mark my very own father carved in to the side of my stomach was burning. The second he'd pushed the blade against the side of my baby bump, I'd screamed bloody murder, begging him to stop.With what Haden did to Selin, I knew he would do it to me too.His mad laughter continued as he drew the X, saying that would be the spot he'll start at when he finally cuts my baby out of me.What a horrible and terrifying thing to hear?Everything still felt like one horrible dream. One second, Raphael was walking out of our room to get me my sandwiches. The next second, Luca was barging through the door.I didn't have enough time or speed to react when he marched over to the bed and slammed a lamp on my head.I was too busy maneuvering my body and trying to move away from him with my large belly dragging me back when he'd launched himself at me.I don't really remember much from there, other than the fact that th
I looked down at the map stretched in the dining room. We'd moved here because my study wasn't bug enough to hold all of my people who wanted to help.The bandage on my shoulder was getting soaked with blood but I couldn't care less. Monika and Bear had advised me to rest and not move my shoulder as much as possible but of course, their words were met with ignorance.Rest? No, that will not be possible, not until I find out how they managed to get in without getting detected and how they manged to get out with Zinnia."Maybe they took her to Landor's territory." One of the warriors commented but I shook my head."Landor's territory is locked in." Silver commented, looking at the map with fire in his eyes.They also took Megan and Silver was the first to speak against Monika and Bear's advise. Raphael can rest when he dies, he said. We need to get them back.Silver is right.We've been locking Landor in his pack, preventing anything and anyone from going in and out. I wasn't willing t
Raphael Stars...I walked out of the bathroom, drying my hair with a small towel.Zinnia was sitting on the bed with her back pressed against the headboard, her legs stretched out above the covers and her hands rubbing at her large belly.I couldn't stop my lips from stretching in to a soft smile as I looked at her."Barely six months and I look like I'm about to burst." Zinnia commented with a small pout.She's been saying that almost every night and every morning this past three weeks.Zinnia is right though. Her belly is growing at an alarming rate.Bear joked that she might give birth to a bear. Zi didn't think it was funny. With how small she is, it kind of scared her. Which was why she's been a bit annoyed too easily lately.But, no matter how scared she claimed to be, I always catch her caressing her baby bump with such loving and tender touch.I walked over to the bed, dropped the towel on the nightstand and sat down next to her.Reaching out, I gently caressed her belly
