Selena's POV

Still watching Karen, I noticed as her hands began to move in an intricate pattern. I looked around me, the packmembers also caught in surprise as I was.

"What's going on here. Karen?" I called. Karen had been so good to me since we returned to this pack, providing my meal morning and evening, and oh, she was a great chef.

But not a healer?

Without raising her head to acknowledge my presence or voice, she waved her hand. "Don't let her come close," she whispered, her face and body fully concentrated on the lad before her.

I watched her in awe, my mouth fully agape. What was truly going on? Or was she a healer, and I just couldn't remember? No, not likely, for she would have mentioned it during the numerous times she had served me.

I felt I needed to know more, the lad shouldn't die, and if Karen wasn't truly a healer as she acted, he'd surely die!!

I stormed forward, trying to pass through the thick wall formed by the pack members, but I felt a strong weight on my shoulde

  • The Betrayed Luna Strikes Back   Chapter 1

    Selena's POVI couldn't help but drop the container of my fertility pills when I saw the text. It wasn't terrible news, or something that shocked me to the core, but rather, it was a strange message that I couldn't have imagined coming at such a time.I tried not to not focus on the spilled pills littering the kitchen floor, and read the message again and again until I could fully understand what it was trying to tell me.‘6PM. Our secret spot.Wear that sexy black lingerie. I'll be waiting. R.’I took in a shaky breath, not wanting to let excitement get the better of me. There was only one person that had enough audacity to send me such a suggestive message, although I wondered why he didn't simply use his own number. Maybe he wanted things to be more . . . mysterious?“Hey, Selena—” Raven walked into the kitchen while dragging a brush through her thick ginger hair. She halted in her tracks when she saw the pills on the floor. “What's wrong?”The concern in her expression made me

    Selena’s POVThe man simply licked his lips and grabbed my waist roughly, pulling me to him. “Come on, baby.”“No!” I screamed, pushing him away so hard that he stumbled backwards.Quickly, I picked up my clothes and hastily put on my coat, irritated at the way I felt like curling up in a ball and crying. Never could I have imagined such a thing happening to me today, especially when I had expected to see Rowan.Did Rowan know about this? That some strange man had come into our most sacred place and put his hands on my body?I didn't want to believe that he could have done such a thing, but I couldn't make sense of the whole situation at all.Without sparing another glance at the strange naked man, I rushed out of the secret garden I had once found safe.——Much to my displeasure, Rowan didn't pick up his calls. I needed to talk to him about what I had faced earlier, but with the way things were, the only way I might have been able to do that was driving over to the pack office myself

    Selena's POVIt was like I had gone deaf. People kept cheering for Rowan and the woman by his side, but I couldn't understand what was even happening before my eyes. I turned to Raven by my side, surprised to even see her among those clapping. I held her hand tightly, like it was the only piece of floating wood that could save me from drowning.“What's happening?” I asked her, hoping that she at least had some answers. I expected her to burst into laughter and tell me that the lady Rowan was holding was some kind of distant relative that he was welcoming, or that they were trying to play an elaborate prank on me, but she didn't say anything of the sort. No, instead, she pulled her hand out of my grasp, and her face contorted into a sneer. “Why don't you go ask him? He's right up there,” she said, pointing up to the stage where Rowan stood.He and the woman stood too close. The woman kept looking at him with such adoration in her eyes that definitely couldn't have been mere familial

    Selena's POVHis words pierced my heart. I had never felt a more terrible pain in my life. Not even when I was insulted and mocked by my pack’s members. Because I had always known that their words didn't make me, and therefore couldn't break me.Now, however, hearing those same words from the man I had wholly given my heart to felt like a thousand needles in my ribcage. It got difficult to breathe, and nausea rose up in my throat again, reminding me of the child in my belly. I looked up at Rowan, and placed a trembling hand on my still flat belly. Anything could happen to me, but I had to think like a mother expecting a child. “I'm pregnant, Rowan.”“Are you so desperate that you would try to bring that up as well? Have you no shame?” he said. I reached into my bag and brought out the pregnancy kit test that I had been keeping. It was truly pathetic that I had to use it for this reason; to prove something rather than to celebrate with my husband. I lifted it and got up to my feet s

    Selena's POVWeighing on the guard's hand, I helped myself out of the car. My hair clung to my sweaty face and my heart beat faster as we slowly approached the gate that marked the border of my pack--my former pack.As we made our way towards the large silver gate, I felt the piercing gaze of the pack members around pour down upon me. Looking at them, my stomach churned as I sighted one of the pack elders standing in their midst. I felt his unwavering gaze on me as I passed by them, a hushed conversation erupting within the crowd.It was the whole world against me. As I approached the gate, I took one last look at the mansion up on the hill miles away. I clenched my fists, my jaws tightening as the image of Raven's smirk returned, igniting me with rage and pain. "You will regret this," I muttered under my breath as one of the guards rushed towards me, locked his arms around mine and pulled me towards the gate. "YOU ALL WILL REGRET THIS!!!" The guard by my side sent a blow to my bac

    Chapter 6Selena's POVI had expected my breathing to quicken and my heart to race when I read the wordings on the sign but surprisingly, none of that happened. I knew about Moonstone pack and I knew that I had every right to fear the sign as the rogue but I felt no fear. Their Alpha, Alpha Zane, was ruthless and he ruled the pack with an iron fist, killing every rogue that made it to his pack boundaries. Something told me to turn back, but I knew the rogue was still out there, waiting for me to step out. And besides, where was I to go? My fate was basically the same any other way, so I couldn't care less about what was going to happen to me. My stomach still rumbling and my throat parched from my lack of water, I turned from the fence and ventured deeper into the territory, fully aware that I was venturing into the lions den. The trees around me stretched endlessly, their crooked branches causing the shadows around me to be contorted and misleading. I had never felt so watched befo

    Zane's POVMy grip on my reins tightened as I slowly rode into the forest. The entire forest seemed to have been enveloped in a cloak of silence as even the winds were hushed, but I knew something lurked in the quietude. That was why I had decided we go on a rogues hunt."Reports came in from the warriors at the east borders yesterday, Alpha Zana," Gara, my gamma, commander of my wolf army, said as he looked up at me. "The entire east coast has been stained with litters of rogues and they threaten to move further into the pack territory." "Deploy more soldiers there and have them all wiped out," I answered, my tone cold and unwavering. Rogues had no place within my borders, and I was not willing to tolerate any threat to my pack. The uprising of the rogue had begun not too long ago after they had gotten word of the Aegis stone, rumored to be the source of my powers. They tried endlessly to find their way into my pack but none of them ever lived to make it in. But now, the rogues see

    Selena's POVThe sound of birds tweeting reaching my ears, causing me to stir on the hard surface I laid on. A bright light beamed on my face and my eyes opened gradually. I places my hand over my eyes and turned to the side to avoid the light but then found a strange figure sitting beside me, his cruel face instantly terrifying me."W-who are you?" I asked as I hurriedly sat up on the bed. I immediately paused after feeling a sharp pain shoot up my arms. "W-where am I?" I asked, turning my head around and trying hard to recollect any previous event.The figure gave no reply, only staring at me as though he was studying some specimen. Without saying a word, he got up from the chair he sat on and moved towards the door."I demand to know who you are!!!" I screamed at him, anger and terror intertwined in me as I did so. He stopped on his tracks, turning to look at me again. The terror I saw on his face sent me sitting back down on the bed again. His face was tight as he looked at me, hi

    Selena's POVI followed the packmembers as they carried the werewolf on the stretcher, a sense of desperation feeling me. I just had to remember something, anything about my past as a healer. The lad shouldn't just die."He'll be fine," I heard the male werewolf tell the mother of the sick one in a whisper. "The Seer still has something up her sleeves," he added.A pang of guilt that I just couldn't imagine creeped into my heart, forcing me to stumble as I followed the packmembers to the packhouse. "No, you've got this Selena," I whispered to myself, closing my eyes and breathing deeply at a spot. The packmembers behind me stood still for a while, only to continue trudging forward without interrupting my thought process.I recalled snippets of conversations, fleeting images of warriors and places, and also Rowan. He was just there, standing still with a sort of wand in his hand."Selena," he whispered. "You're not getting your powers back, and you know it."I shook my head violently

    Selena's POVAs I walked towards the werewolf, I tried hard to maintain my footsteps, trying hard not to stumble in pressure, but my legs betrayed me, as I almost fell down as I moved, my legs wobbling."Are you alright dear Seer?" the male werewolf asked, making it definitely the second time he was asking the question.I turned back, smiling at him and forging on. It would surely be a mockery to my face if I failed to heal the lad, and this time a larger group of werewolves would turn to ask me if I was okay.I thought steadfastly about the mother's tears and the uncle's great expectations that the young werewolf would come back to us former state. The burdens of their hopes and expectations grew to be a burden on my shoulders.As I reached them young werewolf's side, I swallowed hard. Gazing down at his face, his pale and gaunt face, my heart went out for him. His skim was damp, his eyes sunken. I noticed his chest rise and fall with shallow, laboured breaths, making me to feel a

    Selena's POVWe walked on, the female werewolf not saying a word, her eyes fixed on some point ahead.I heard the low murmuring of pack members behind me as we forged on, a cold shiver running down my spine. I could sense their anxiety, their desperation. They felt they were losing the great seer that they once knew and hoped on, and I felt their pain.We eventually reached the front of a small, rustic enclave where she dwelled, and instinctively, the pack members stopped outside as she pushed open the wedge she kept."May the good goddess be with you," a female pack member who helped her remove the wedge whispered to her ear, taking steps backwards. I swallowed at this, trying all the best all I could to reconnect to the healing powers they claimed I possessed which I knew I didn't.But I felt nothing, and it only added to my unease. I would fail them all the put their trust in me.The werewolf took steps inside, and I hesitated, staring into the dimly lit room."You could come in S

  • The Betrayed Luna Strikes Back   Chapter 162

    Selena's POVI walked around the packhouse, my feet seeming to be taking strides of it's own as I struggled to keep my mind up. Every turn seemed familiar, yet distant.Zane told me earlier that I spent a great part of my years as a seer in this pack, healing packmembers and venturing with the warriors into wars, but all that seemed far away as I found it tough to recall even the most seemingly common butler or room keeper."With time you'd recall them all," Zane had said to me earlier and I believed him, but the more I walked around the more it seemed all too distant. I took a step out of the pack house and into the pack surrounding, the packmembers flooding towards me in different groups."Long live the great seer, bless you Seer, here comes the Seer who saved my life by healing me," I heard from the different groups as they ran towards me.I smiled at them, nodding to their various greetings, bit deep within me it all felt like a dream, where everything was all fuzzy. I broke fre

    Karen's P.O.VI bursted into the throne room, my heart beating hard against my ribs as the scene back at the forest kept on replaying in my head. I took in deep breaths as I felt like my lungs were about to fail me. I tried to breathe in but I did so too fast and ended up choking. I tried to compose myself, but what met my eyes blew away my last remnant of restraint.A shirt gasp escaped my lips as I froze in place. Selena and Zane.Not only had they left me behind in MysticShadow Pack, but they were also entangled with each other, right here in the sacred throne room!'No. this can't be happening,' I thought to myself as different thoughts raced through my mind. "Selena!! Zane!!" I roared as my voice echoed off the grand marble walls. "What the hell is going on here?!" They were wrapped in a passionate embrace, with Selena's fingers dancing around the locks of Zane's hair, while his hands clasped her around the waist as though wanting to never let go. They shared a passionate kiss

  • The Betrayed Luna Strikes Back   Chapter 160

    Selena's POVI sat on the throne reserved for the Luna of the pack, the long hair that was prepared for me cascading down my back like a river of sunset dues.Sitting just beside me was my heart throb, Alpha Zane, the grand and prosperous Alpha of Moonstone pack. He was all there could ever be to me, my epitome of strength and grace.His presence commanded power and strength all around, and I couldn't help but steal glances at him. His piercing blue eyes seemed to see right through everything he set his gaze on, and it sparkled with a sense of amusement that sent calm chills through all those he spoke with.I watched as his chiseled features were set in a calm and serene expression. But deep down I knew that beneath that tranquil surface lay a depth of emotion, a sort of passion that only I was lucky enough to experience.Seeming noticing my continuous stare at him, he sharply turned to me, a smile growing on his face.As I continued to gaze at him, I felt my heart swell in admiration

    Karen's POVI couldn't surpress the anger and defiance I felt at the strange warrior's words. How dare him prophesy doom to my face? Who was he to tell my about my desires for lust and power? Only I knew what I wanted, and how I'd go far I'd go to get it."Your warnings and prophesies are not needed here," I blasted at him, my voice low and venomous. "I alone understand how it feels to see the one I love so dearly being snatched away from my hands by a mere.... werewolf. "The strange warrior laughed hard at this, raising his head up and shaking quite violently."She's the Chosen one, Karen. You can't do anything against her that won't return back to you," he said after the fit of laughter." You have no authority to prophesy doom to me, the one with the healing powers!! " I roared, taking steps towards him in rage.He stood still, his eyes till locked with mine. "You're blinded by your selfish ambition," he continued, his voice quite low and gravelly.I laughed at this, a cold and

    Karen's POVZane's eyes locked into mine with a sudden look of seriousness. "Selena a needs to get to the Aeges stone as soon as possible. It's the only source of her recuperation, and you know that. "I felt a surge of confusion as I stole a glance at Selena. How would this affect my already laid out plan? There was no time to think."I'll come with you all then," I finally heard myself say. "We'll all go together, and I'll stand by your side."Selena beamed with smile as I said this, and I couldn't help but wish that I could just pierce her neck and end her at that point.She walked up to me. "Elara," she called, her eyes filled with all sense of gratitude.I stole a glance immediately at Zane, and then stared back at Selena. "I'm not Elara. I'm Karen," I replied in correction."Oh, I've been mixing up names lately," she replied, tapping her forehead gently. " Thanks for your offer, but we'll be fine.""No Selena. I love you dearly and I'm willing to take it all up on myself to see
