The Alpha’s War Prize: Hearts at War (Book 1) 17. You have to be the Luna
I hated that these people were slowly getting to me. I found myself considering what it would be to be the Luna of this pack that was so powerful. I was so close to accepting the idea but the constant reminder of what I’ve lost was what was stopping me. I needed to get my revenge. I had gotten enough bed rest now so all my wounds were fully healed and I now looked like the Geneva I was familiar with. I plan to go in search of Lily today so we can spend the day together. Now that I am allowed to leave this room, I was going to take advantage of it. Besides, I needed to know the structure of the pack if I was going to escape this place. I was planning to head out when there was a knock on the door. I didn’t need to ask who it was because his smell took over my senses and I had to stop myself from running to the door and yanking it open“Come in” I called out and walked further into the room so we could be as far apart as possible. I needed to make sure my head was clear so I could thin

“I don’t think that’s how you’re supposed to mix it” Lily’s voice is full of amusement as she watches me try to whisk egg in a bowl “It’s so hilarious, I can’t even imagine how someone would whisk eggs like that” Elena was close to rolling in laughter but I just ignore the both of them and focus on the task that Emily gave me We were currently in the pack’s kitchen. I was on my bed, deep in thought when they barged into my room and dragged me down to the kitchen. I wasn’t even given the chance to even refuse the offer and even if I was there was no way I could, not after seeing the way Emily’s face lit up at my presence. “Heyy, I am doing the best I can. I’ve never cooked in my life okay. Papa and my brothers won’t let me near the kitchen. I was the only girl so I was well protected” I bragged with a smile as I remembered how chaotic the house would get anytime I attempted to cook. Ethan and Calum would act like the world was about to end. They would run to the kitchen and d

The pack house was very busy today. It was saturday which meant everyone was at home and it was pure chaos. Kids were running around, teenagers were lounging everywhere and the adults were cleaning and making small talks. A lot of the pack members had not seen me before so I was getting a lot of curious stares especially from the children and teenagers but no one bothered me which was a relief for me. I looked down at my plate and thought back to when I vowed not to have anything to do with this pack but here I was, eating the same meal I rejected. I was eating peacefully when a hand touched my hair gently, making me jump in shock. I turned to see Emily smiling down at me “Good Morning” I greeted her with a smile which she returned before taking a seat in front of me “How have you been dear?” She asked me “Fine, I guess. A lot better than yesterday” I replied and continue eating my mealIt was awkward for me to have a full conversation with her without Lily and Elena here so I

Third Person POVZion was pacing the room and it was starting to give Emily a headache. She felt bad for him and the situation he found himself in but there was nothing she could do to help him. She had to sit still and watch as her son and his mate suffered. “Calm down Zion. Nothing would come from pacing like this. Go and explain to her and see what she would say about it. Your concerns are valid” Emily advised and Zion paused his pacing to stare at him mom with serious eyes “Ma, you know what she would say. She would never allow it” he was frustrated and pissed.He had to travel miles away from his pack to another small pack who urgently needed his help. This was a request he could not turn down as it was the duty of much larger packs like his own to help smaller packs whenever they faced any difficulty.The problem was that he could not leave his mate unmarked. The thought of it made him tense with worry. His body and wolf would simply not allow it and now he had to tell Geneva

Geneva couldn’t figure out what was wrong with her since the last two days. She had been restless and couldn’t bring herself to eat anything or sit still for more than ten minutes. Deep down, she knew she was lying to herself and knew the exact reason why her body was reacting this way but she was not willing to accept it.She felt a sense of emptiness and loneliness that she couldn’t shake off no matter how hard she tried. She wanted to go out and talk to someone but she didn’t want to admit out loud that Zion’s absence affected her a great deal, way more than she would have liked.Moreover, the pack members, especially the males, had been avoiding her and she knew it had to do with a certain Alpha and it made her blood boil with rage. He didn’t have the right to protect her.She left her room and roamed around the pack house grounds aimlessly. She wanted to venture into the pack, away from the pack house but there was no one to ask as Elena and Lily had been quite busy and hadn’t com

Geneva was lounging under the tree she named Aimee. It was her favorite spot since Elena and Lily became too busy to hang out with her anymore. She hates to admit it but she missed their company. Now all she does is sit under Aimee all day and stare at the pack members as they went through their daily activities.The cool breeze was so soothing to her and her thoughts. The calm atmosphere in this part of the pack was what made her always spend her time here. When she was here, she could let her mind travel into her fondest memories and try to relive them She was so lost in thoughts that she didn’t notice the brunette walking towards her until she was tapped on the shoulders lightly.Startled, Geneva opened her eyes to see the beautiful brunette with golden brown eyes staring back at her. She was stunned for some seconds with how beautiful the girl looked. Deep down, she was green with envy at how beautiful all the Valis pack ladies were “Hello, sorry to startle you” her voice was jus

THREE YEARS LATER...I was taking a walk through the garden towards the back of the pack house because my feet hurt and I needed to visit Ethan. It was swollen and Elena advised that I took as many walks as I could to alleviate the pain.I was due to give birth any moment from now and was not supposed to wander too far from the pack house but Elaine was with me.“Mom, are you okay? Do you need to sit for a minute?” He asked worriedly as I wobbled for a minute.“No, I’m fine. I need to stop sitting down every time.” I wrapped my arms around his neck and pulled him closer to me.When we got to where Ethan was buried, Elaine wandered off with Indigo leaving me alone. There was a chair beside the grave from the last time I visited.“Hey, Ethan. I came to say goodbye. I’m going to have a baby soon and I’ve decided to let go of my past, including you. I should have listened to Zion about not burying you here in the pack house but then I was desperate and wanted to hold on to the only family

My head was spinning. I didn’t want to believe the person looking back at me with so much hatred was Ethan. My brother who I thought was dead. No, Ethan can’t be alive.“Ethan? How is this possible? How are you alive?” I was losing my breath and Zion rushed over to my side to pick me up “I saw you die” I screamed.I saw Indigo tense on top of him and my eyes finds her claws on his neck, ready to rip it out if he even tried to move.“Indigo, stop it” I yelled, running towards her to push her off him “Let him go, he is not a threat” I cried out but she didn’t move. She saw him as a threat and she was not going to let him go.“Zion, tell her to get off him. She is going to hurt him” I ran to his side.“Geneva, please calm down and examine the situation. He is here with that woman. I think he is the one that has been trying to kill you all this time”“What are you saying? He is my brother, Zion. He would never try to harm me. I know it’s all a misunderstanding” I refused to believe that E

I pushed my food around in my plate, unable to eat a single bite. My insides were still trembling after the visit to Astrid. I know she told me not to worry but I couldn’t help but think of the part where she said the person had decided to finish what he started and very soon.I wasn’t ready at all. I know early I kind of boasted about my fighting skills but I was terrified. It felt like my insides were twisted in a painful manner and I couldn’t breathe well.“Genny” Lily called and I looked up from my plate to meet her concerned gaze “What’s wrong? Are you still thinking of what Astrid said?”I tried to smile at her but it came out as a grimace instead. We were having dinner in the pack kitchen and I could not find it in me to join in their little discussions.“Don’t worry about a thing. You have all of us, we would never let anything happen to you” Lily reached out to give my hand a little squeeze.“She is right, Gen. We will protect you. Have you forgotten we are the most powerful

`I clung to Zion’s arms as we walked towards Astrid’s hut. Indigo ran ahead of us as though she knew exactly where we were going. I was still shaken by the incident earlier and it made me so scared that the person who was trying to kill me had gotten so close without anyone noticing. We aren’t safe at all.Before we left, Zion had ordered for some warriors to be stationed outside our door but I refused. It would be too overwhelming to see them guarding the door. It was like a constant reminder that I wasn’t safe. We had argued about it but he finally relented and allowed me to have my way.I was no longer the weak girl that was taken from my pack. I was stronger and a better fighter. I wanted to believe that I would be able to take care of myself in case anything happened even though I hoped nothing would happen.I hoped that Astrid had some answers for us. She had been searching for answers on the poison that was used for so long and I was already close to giving up hope that she wou

It’s been just a few hours since Zion left with Elaine, leaving just me and Indigo in the house but she had already grown on me. It didn’t help that she kept trailing behind me wherever I went and it was funny. If I got out of her sight for a minute, she would come barrelling through the house, sniffing everywhere to know where I was. I looked behind at my new shadow where she laid sprawled on the kitchen floor as I did the dishes. I had to take her to Elena this morning so I missed out on training with Isaac so I could get a few things done before I took her to the pack clinic. “Are you going to follow me into the bathroom when it’s time for me to take a bath? Zion would kill you before that happen” I said playfully with a chuckle. I arranged the dishes into the racks and headed to my room so I could take a shower. When I entered the bathroom, Indigo attempted to follow me but I stopped her before she could get into the bathroom.“No, No, No, where do you think you are going? Sit”

I blinked open and felt a heavy weight on my chest. I looked down and shrieked in surprise to see the panther, Indigo laying on me and purring softly. I scrambled to the end of the bed in shock but the panther didn’t move from the spot and gave me a bored look before resting on its paws.I looked around the room and saw Elaine sitting on the floor beside the bed and he was busy playing with her tail and giggling.“You are so silly, Mummy. Indigo won’t hurt you. She is a good girl” He said and purred the animal who purred in response and even licked Elaine’s hand and he burst into another fit of giggles.“Stop, indie, it tickles”I sat back down hesitantly and looked at the animal who seemed to be better. It seems whatever Elena gave it was successful in helping it recover quickly but that didn’t explain why it was on my bed, on me.“Zion” I called out “Where is your daddy, baby?”“He is making breakfast in the kitchen” Elaine said happily and I understood why. We were used the kitchen

We were having dinner in the pack house’s kitchen and it was one of those rare days when Jamie, Isaac, Elena, Lily and even Zion was present. Things have been slow lately so everyone was less busy. The pack was peaceful and it gave us enough time to connect and do things together.“Where is Elaine?” Lily asked as she took a bite of the chicken Emily had grilled to perfection earlier.“He is playing with the other pups. I can’t get him to stay in one place even to eat” I complained and they all burst out laughing.“He takes after you. You are so difficult to handle” Elena comments and I throw the napkin beside me at her face.They’ve all come to accept Elaine as me and Zion’s pup naturally and sometimes they referred to him as though I gave birth to him, always claiming that he takes certain traits from me or Zion and it made me happy.Elaine has also settled in as being our pup too well. The room Zion made for him was beautiful and Elaine actually cried when he first saw it. Zion may

I knocked on Zion’s office door, my heart was pounding in my chest. I wanted to tell him immediately before I chickened out. Adopting Elaine out of the blue was something that would change our lives and I really want him to agree with my decision.“Come in” Zion called from the other side. I don’t even know why I knocked when I could have just gone in. I guessed I needed time to gather my thoughts.I pushed the door open with shaky hands and entered the office. Seeing his rugged look made me fall in love with him all over again. I missed him so much even though we slept in the same bed last night.His face lit up into a smile when he saw me. He closed the files he had been going through and stood up. I watched with a small smile as he walked over to me and pulled me into a hug.“Hey, beautiful. What brings you here? Are you okay?”He pressed his lips to mine in what was supposed to be a chaste kiss but I clung to him, deepening the kiss because I missed him so much. He had been too qu

“Elaine, stop running baby or you’ll hurt yourself” I yelled from where I sat under the huge tree and watched him run around the large field chasing butterflies with the other pups.There was a smile on my face as I watched him giggle and push the other pups lightly. We have been spending almost every day together since Zuri left since I wanted to give Zion and Emily the space they needed. Zion wasn’t taking Zuri’s leaving well. He had been moody, not to me but to the others. He doesn’t talk much or eat much.I wanted to comfort him but I knew he needed time and space to miss her and accept that the decision was the best for Zuri. Elaine was the perfect remedy to distract me from everything. He always made me laugh with his antics and he was annoyingly curious and was always in my face asking the weirdest questions.“You can take your eyes off him for a minute. He won’t disappear or get hurt if you continue reading that book in your lap” Lily said with a laugh and I turn to glare at h
