Chapter 80KeithI sat in my garden, surrounded by the fragrant scent of blooming flowers and the peaceful chirping of birds. But my mind was far from peaceful. I couldn't stop thinking about the dangerous situation my pack was in.As the alpha of the Antarti pack, it was my duty to mate with my wife Davina, the Luna, but we had been estranged for months now. According to our custom, the alpha and Luna must mate regularly to maintain their strength and power. Without this connection, both the alpha and Luna become weaker, leaving the pack vulnerable to attacks.I sighed and leaned back against the bark of the old oak tree, feeling the roughness of the bark against my skin. Suddenly, I heard footsteps approaching, and I looked up to see my trusted friend and advisor, Ethan, walking towards me."Keith, we need to talk," Ethan said, his face serious."What's going on?" I asked, sitting up straight."It's about the pack. We've received reports of a group of rogue wolves planning to attack
Chapter 81DavinaDavina was lying in bed, exhausted from the festivities of her father's recovery party. She had barely closed her eyes when Keith, her husband and alpha of the antarti pack, burst into her chamber."Keith, what are you doing here?" she asked, surprised."I've been trying to find a way to prove my innocence, but the missing piece of the amulet is making it difficult," he said, frustration evident in his voice.Davina sat up, concern etched on her face. "I understand, Keith. But until we find that missing piece, I can't allow us to mate. It's not just about tradition. It's about trust."Keith looked down, ashamed. "I know, Davina. I'm sorry. I never meant to put you in this position. I just don't know where to turn."Davina reached out and placed a comforting hand on Keith's shoulder. "We'll find a way, Keith. We'll figure it out together."Keith looked up, hope shining in his eyes. "Do you really mean that, Davina?""Of course, Keith. You know I'll always stand by you
Chapter 82KeithKeith walked into the park library, feeling anxious and uncertain about what he was about to do. He had always thought of himself as a confident man, but when it came to wooing his wife, Davina, he felt like he was at a loss. He approached the librarian at the front desk and asked for a book on how to woo a woman."Excuse me, miss. I'm looking for a book on how to win a woman's heart. Do you have anything like that?" Keith asked nervously.The librarian, a middle-aged woman with kind eyes and a warm smile, looked at Keith sympathetically. "Of course, dear. We have a whole section on romance and relationships. Let me show you."Keith followed the librarian to the section of the library dedicated to books on relationships. He felt overwhelmed by the sheer number of books on the shelves, but the librarian quickly found a book and handed it to him."Here you go, dear. This book is called 'The Art of Wooing: A Guide to Winning a Woman's Heart.' It's one of our most popular
Chapter 83KeithKeith wandered through the park, feeling lost and hopeless. He didn't know where to start looking for the missing piece of the amulet, and the thought of disappointing Davina filled him with dread.As he walked aimlessly, lost in thought, he heard a voice calling out to him. "Excuse me, sir, do you need any help?" the voice said.Keith turned to see a young woman with a friendly smile standing next to him. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to bother you," Keith replied, still lost in thought."It's no bother at all," the woman said. "You just looked like you could use a friendly face. Is everything okay?"Keith hesitated for a moment, unsure if he should share his problems with a stranger. But something about the woman's warm demeanor put him at ease, and he found himself opening up to her."I've been trying to win my wife's affections, but she's asked me to find a missing piece of an amulet to complete our mating rite," Keith said, his voice filled with frustration.The wom
Chapter 84DavinaDavina sat in her room, staring at the beauty of the walls in front of her. She had a lot to do, but her mind kept wandering back to the conversation she had earlier with Keith. He had come to her chamber, looking troubled and anxious."Luna, I am worried about not completing the rites of alpha and Luna," he had said, his eyes downcast.Davina had known this conversation was coming. Keith had been asking about the completion of the rites for weeks now. But she couldn't ignore the elephant in the room any longer. "Keith, we can't mate until the missing piece of the amulet is found and the murderer of your parents, the late alpha and Luna, is brought to justice. You know that," she said, her voice firm.Keith's face fell. "But it's been so long. And we still don't have any leads on who did it. How much longer do we have to wait?""I understand your frustration, Keith. But we can't rush these things. We need to make sure that we have all the evidence and all the pieces
Chapter 85I was almost dozing off when Liam barged into my chambers, and the urgency in his voice immediately alerted me."Jason, you won't believe what just happened," Liam said, his voice trembling with excitement."What is it?" I asked, rubbing my eyes to ward off the sleep."A woman just appeared at the palace gates, and she claims to have information about the missing piece of the amulet. She wants to help Keith find it," Liam explained.I sat up in bed, feeling a knot in my stomach. I knew what this meant. If they found the missing piece and used it to complete the amulet, it would reveal me as the murderer of the late alpha and Luna, Keith's parents."I have to pretend to join in the search right?" I asked Liam, my voice shaking."Yes, that's what the alpha ordered," Liam replied, his expression apologetic.I closed my eyes and took a deep breath, trying to calm my nerves. I knew I had to play my part and act happy for Keith's sake, but deep down, I was praying that they would
Chapter 86KeithI woke up early on the day of our trip to my in-laws' house. Even though I had been to their house many times before, I always wanted to make a good impression. I got out of bed and immediately began to pack my bags. I had already made a list of everything I needed, and I made sure to double-check it before leaving the house."Davina, are you ready to go?" I called out to my wife as I finished packing."Yes, I'm ready," she replied, coming out of the bedroom with her own bag.As we made our way to the car, Davina's parents called to wish us a safe trip. "We're looking forward to seeing you both," her mother said."Thank you, we're excited to see you too," I responded.Davina and I got into the car and started our journey. As we drove, I couldn't help but feel a little nervous. I wanted to make a good impression on her parents, and I hoped that everything would go smoothly."You seem a little quiet, Keith. Is everything okay?" Davina asked, noticing my apprehension."I
Chapter 87DavinaI woke up to the sound of rustling clothes and turned over to see Keith already dressed up for our visit to my parents' castle. "Good morning," I mumbled, rubbing my eyes."Morning, sleepyhead," Keith replied, smiling at me. "We need to leave in an hour, so better hurry up."I groaned, knowing that my parents were always punctual and I didn't want to keep them waiting. "I'm up, I'm up," I said, swinging my legs out of bed.Keith chuckled and walked over to me. "Here," he said, handing me a cup of coffee. "This will help you wake up."I took a grateful sip of the steaming coffee, feeling its warmth spread through my body. "Thanks," I said, smiling at him."You're welcome," he said, kissing my forehead. "Now, let's get ready."I nodded and headed to the bathroom to freshen up. As I was brushing my teeth, Keith knocked on the door. "Hey, are you almost done?" he asked.I rinsed my mouth and replied, "Yeah, just a minute."Keith leaned against the doorframe, watching me
