Landon's heart skipped a beat when he heard the proposal. He looked carefully at Alpha Nathan's face as he made his way towards his seat. He sat down in the comfortable throne-like chair and began. "I was not about when you came. But I'm glad to see you were received warmly, though I would like my decision to be considered next time." Landon glared at Leo Madison, his father-in-law. "I'm sorry Alpha." Leo apologized even though his eyes and tone spoke far from apology. "You were not around at the moment and your wife, the Luna saw it fit to welcome your guest.""This is not welcome. This is a meeting!" Landon snapped. "Alpha Nathan has come to us with a proposal." Zoe interrupted. "Are we going to at least consider that offer?"Landon gave his father-in-law one last dirty look and turned to Alpha Nathan. "You propose a team up against the deadliest pack in Hill Town. Do you understand how insane that sounds?" Landon asked. "I understand how insane it sounds." Nathan smiled. "But wh
"There she goes." "There she is." "Hey... Look at her, the Alpha's mate." People called and pointed every corner and angle Jessica found herself in school. The news had circulated quickly shortly after Draven made the announcements to the cabinet the following morning. While others frowned at this new development, others rejoiced, most especially when they heard the part where Draven's blood lust had vanished when he came in contact with Jessica. The Alpha had finally found his mate. "Jessica! Jessica!" Jessica heard someone call her from behind as she walked to her next class. Jessica turned to see who was running after her and Vicky Norbert abruptly crashed into Jessica for a hug. "Thank you, thank you so much, Jessica," Vicky said as she hugged Jessica tightly. "For what? What did I do?" Jessica asked, clearly puzzled at the hug she got out of the blue. "Thank you for finally freeing me from Chloe and Eva., Vicky said breathlessly. "Oh, that." Jessica laughed. "I didn't do an
"What were you thinking Landon?" Zoe asked hotly, her anger evident in the flaring of her nostrils."I did what I wanted and who are you to question my decisions?" Landon snapped back at her."You ask who I am? I am your Luna! The Luna of Moon shadow pack!" Zoe exclaimed."A Luna and not an Alpha!" Landon screamed back, angrily. The two bantering couples were in their very own bedroom getting ready for sleep. The air between the Alpha and his Luna had been tensed in the last few days and the visit from Alpha Nathan was the last straw that broke the camel's back."You disgust me..." Zoe spat out at Alpha Landon. "My father.....""Oh shocks....!" Landon cut her off before she could finish. "It's always about your father!! That's why you had to fire Jasper, isn't it? Nobody fit for the role except perfect daddy?""You will talk about my father with respect," Zoe warned with a trembling voice."Or what Zoe! I am the Alpha and I can do whatever the heck I am." Landon replied firmly.Zoe p
It was a Saturday and Jessica didn't want to rise early from bed. She had woken up long ago but chose to stay in bed. As she lay there in bed enjoying her quiet time and going through her thoughts, she heard the door open from downstairs and she heard voices. Jessica's senses had begun to heighten as well after her strength developed. She could hear more than the average human now but still, her hearing and sense of smell were not to be compared with that of other wolves yet. Even in her dull hearing, Jessica recognized the voice downstairs though she could not make out the discussion. She quickly climbed out of bed and descended the stairs quickly but when she got to a point where she could see what was going on, she paused and peaked carefully. Draven stood in the living room with his back turned to where Jessica hid. He was in a conversation with Jessica's father while Jessica's mother stood by the side dressed in her cooking apron and a large kitchen spoon clutched in her hands
Jessica felt something she had never felt before in her entire life. She felt the whole world dissolve leaving her in a state of bliss as her lips connected with Draven's and she felt the wolf in her leap excitedly. They separated and Jessica felt almost ashamed as she looked away. Draven gently brought her face back to look at him. His fingers slowly brushed Jessica's cheeks and Jessica felt the butterflies flutter madly in her stomach. "I love you Jessica." Draven spoke softly, his voice little above a whisper. "You're all I ever needed. I promise to always protect you Jessica. I promise to do all I can to keep you happy and safe." He said vowed. Jessica believed him. She had heard these words before from Landon. She remembered them all too well but hearing the words from Draven was nothing like how Landon had said. Instantly, she believed Draven. Jessica and Alpha Draven spent a while there at the hill top, mostly sharing stories. Jessica who had always believed since day one t
Landon entered the house and carefully scanned his surroundings. The atmosphere was busy and the air filled with the chatter of the drunken men. Landon gritted his teeth angrily. This was what he was reduced to. The Alpha of the moon shadow pack now reduced to carrying out meetings in pubs and shadowy alleys.Alpha Landon pulled the hood of his coat tightly to his face, he could not risk anyone to identify him here. He made his way to the corner where he knew his accomplise would be waiting. True to his word, Jasper James was seated at a table in the corner waiting patiently for his Alpha. Landon plopped down in the seat opposite Jasper and looked around carefully."Fear not Alpha. This is a secured place. You can take off the hood of you please." Jasper assured the Alpha.Landon looked around again apprehensively. All the men were either exchanging blows or chatting loudly in a drunken state. No body seemed to be paying him attention so Landon slowly lowered his hood. "We're done fo
What could possibly happen to Draven? What was wrong actually? Jessica could not deny the way she felt even before Keisha came calling. She had a feeling suddenly as if there was something wrong? The feeling came all of a sudden and strong on Jessica's sub consciousness, the Alpha was in pain. Without waiting to ask or be told anything, Jessica dashed pass her mom, Mrs Lana and the messenger herself. She headed straight at Draven's quarters, running as fast as he could run. Draven was hurt and she needed to be there by his side. Blood coursed through her veins with adrenaline and her little heart hammered against her chest with so much force it seemed her chest would burst open but Jessica ran on. As she ran, she passed one or two people in the hallway who were surprised to see her coming but Jessica ran on, unfazed by anything. Soon enough, Jessica arrived at the meeting room. Without wasting time, she threw the doors open with so much force that made the doors break away from it'
Chapter Forty Four "Koncleia?! Why would you declare koncleia?!" Leo Madison screamed in shock at the Alpha's decree. Alpha Landon smirked smugly at the ruckus he had caused."The koncleia had not being declared for years... Who are you to declare it now?" Leo Madison asked angrily."I am the Alpha!!" Landon screamed like a maniac. "I have every right to declare the Koncleia and I've just done so." Landon established angrily with a rueful look at his father in law.The koncleia was a state of emergency that could only be declared by the Alpha. The koncleia could only be declared in the case of war, external and civil and also when the quest for leadership threatens to throw the pack into chaos.Landon had gotten the revelation to declare koncleia from his trusted aid, Jasper. In the case of a Koncleia, all power and ability to make decisions in anything and everything fell back to the Alpha and the Alpha alone.Alpha Landon knew that with this new strategy all would fall under him wh
