It wasn't difficult to find Isaac since he lived his entire life in the training field. Ever since I woke up three days ago, I had a hard time falling asleep. I hated how I was always looking over my shoulders in fear that someone might jump and hurt me if I wasn’t conscious of my environment.

The moment I woke up, I loved how relieved Zion was and how he bathed me in affection as if he was trying to take my mind off something and my instinct had been right. He told me that the traps were a mistake from him because he wanted to set an example for the rogues that kept trespassing into his land but I didn’t believe him.

He was my mate and I could smell the lie off him but I didn’t want to point it out because I expected him to come clean to me soon which he still hasn’t and it made me pissed so I’ve been avoiding him.

Things like this make me wonder if he trusted me at all or just saw me as an inconvenience. It made me wonder if the moon goddess made a mistake with our pairing but I k

    I was trembling as I stood frozen in front of my room. The sight before me was terrifying and a cold reminder that I was in danger and my attacker was very close by. My heart was pounding in my chest, my breathing hollow and ragged, and my eyes wider than they had ever been as I took it all in.After the first scream tore from my throat, I wanted to move, to say something or to look away but I couldn’t. I was paralyzed with terror.I was barely aware of the multiple footsteps rushing towards me and the chaos in Zion’s head as he constantly kept asking me if I was alright or if I was hurt was making me dizzy. He was panicking, I was scared, and the mate bond was on a tight strain.Zion was the first to get to me. He came to a stop in beside me, in front of the opened doors, panting and taking the stance of a man about to go to war. His mouth opened to ask me something but he saw the state of my room and he stepped back in shock before I knew it, he was bursting into the room while I st

    I felt a tap on my shoulders and turned to see Gabrielle standing behind me with a sceptical look on her face. I didn’t know how to feel about her presence since we hadn’t exactly talked since I was made Luna and I knew she still disliked me for taking her supposed place. I didn’t know what to expect but I braced myself for anything and dropped the book I had been reading on the chair before giving her my full attention.“Can I help you with anything?” My voice came out harder than I intended it to and she flinched back in surprise but I didn’t try to apologize. I don’t think I owed it to her.“Sorry for disturbing you, Luna. I just wanted to have a word with you if you don’t mind?” I studied her and she didn’t have any trace of animosity on her face neither did she put a bite in her tone when she addressed me by my title.“Please call me Geneva. Luna makes me uncomfortable” I tell her before gesturing to the spot on the chair beside me “Please sit, you said you had something to talk

    I felt a warm breath against my face followed by a light trail of kisses along my neck. His lips kissed from my neck down to the curve of my chest between my breast and I arched into his touch. His hands caressed my skin lightly, touching every inch of skin he could lay his hands on.I kept my eyes closed, loving the feel of his skin against my naked flesh. I sigh as he moved so he was hovering over me, between my legs, the contact of our lower halves connecting in a delicious friction.I bit back a moan when he moved his hips against mine and my eyes flew open to meet his dark ones peering down at me."Good morning, Sweetheart. How did you sleep?" The wicked smile on his face made me feel giddy all over like a young up.I looked up at him and smiled. I reached my hands up to cup his face and brought them down so I could kiss him before answering “I slept like a pup, thanks to you”His eyes glowed with my reply and he leaned down for another kiss, this one more passionate than the oth

    “What? Your mate is in the pack house?” I asked shocked because at the moment no one was in the third floor or even in the pack house because they were either training or in school, in the case of the teenagers and I’m certain Elaine eating downstairs isn’t his mate or our parents.I didn’t get any reply from Benjamin. His nostrils flared as he walked around the room, sniffing at every corner and trying to figure out where the scent which I couldn’t smell was coming from. I thought about alerting Zion but decided against it since he was probably already on his way and I bet he would be excited to find out his friend had a mate in his pack.I was startled when he suddenly pushed me a little roughly from the door and stormed out of the room and into the empty hallway. He was getting violent and scary for me."Benjamin, please, calm down” I tried to calm him down but he wasn’t listening to me at all. He was going from door to door, sniffing through the door to see if he could locate his

    Zion clenched his fists as he stared at Benjamin in disbelief. He looked from me to Benjamin but the anger overshadowed his shock and soon he was shaking his head in refusal.“You don’t know what you are saying. There is no one there” He gritted out and his statement only made Benjamin angrier and soon he was pouncing on Zion but he was quicker and stronger. He had Benjamin pinned to the wall in seconds.He growled in Benjamin’s face who was frantically trying to get away from him and open the door. “Let me go, Zion. You can’t keep me from my mate. You know it is against the rules to stand between two mates”“I’m not keeping you from your mate but you can’t open that door” he growled, his voice low and menacing.Benjamin looked up at him with a desperate expression. "Please, Zion, you have to let me in. My mate is behind that door. I can feel her. She's in pain. She needs me."Zion snorted and shook his head. "You're delusional, Benjamin. There's no one behind that door but a monster.

    I stared at Zion in disbelief as I tried to process his accusation. My heart was pounding in my chest and my ears were ringing loudly. All I could think of was why he would accuse me of such a thing. Did I make her that way? I have never met that wolf before. I hardly forget a face or a wolf form. Even if I had seen her when I was younger I would have been able to remember but I didn’t.I didn’t want to think of the fact that he had a sister that he hid from me. Was I not trustworthy enough to be told this? Why did he tell everyone I was his mate if he didn’t trust me? I don’t even think he had plans to tell me of his sister if Benjamin didn’t come and claim that she was his mate. I would have never found out about this.“What do you mean by that? How am I responsible for turning someone I’ve never met feral?” I demanded, needing an immediate explanation because I felt like I was going crazy with everything that I was feeling.Zion opened his mouth to speak but before he could utter a

    ZION’S POVI took a deep breath before looking into the eyes of the person that has come to mean the whole world to me. I want to tell her the truth, I had to even if it would break her but I can’t keep it anymore. She has already found out about Zuri and I know she must be dying with worry from thinking about how Zuri was connected to her pack.I tried my best to shield her from the painful truth but she thinks it’s because I don’t trust her and not because I was protecting her. She wanted the truth and I will tell her, she has to deal with the consequences and it would kill me to watch her pick up the pieces of the shattered reality she thought she knew. “I don’t understand” She stammered. She stands up and moved away from me and the action made me want to choke on my fears but I don’t say anything in protest. “Explain it to me, Zion. How did my father turn her feral? Speak up, please”She was scared and I wanted to pull her to me and shield her from the world, from the man who gav

    GENEVA’S POVMy world was crashing and there was nothing to hold on to. I want to cling onto Zion’s shirt and shake some senses into him. I want to yell at his face for him to shut his mouth. I want to stop him from spurting rubbish and tell him not to say lies about people he didn’t know.It had to be fake, lies, an effort to make himself look good. He didn’t want people to know he kept a feral wolf so he was putting the blame on somebody he hated and that was my dad. Why would dad kill Zion’s father when he was mated to Mom?He loved mom a lot and everyone in the pack was aware of this. The main reason why I wanted a mate was because of them so how is it possible he was obsessed with Emily? I don’t believe it. I can’t believe it.He keeps saying they molested and tortured Zuri but my brothers were not monsters. My pack members were not horrible people. I won’t believe it.But mom’s words that night kept haunting me. How she blamed dad for leading her babies down the wrong path, was

    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
