"Who's that?" That voice was really coming from John, immediately I made the pole stand and walked hastily downstairs.I succeeded in coming out of the room but he had come out of his room already, I ran my hands in my hair and entered my room then began to dress for work. At Least no one would suspect me, I would use this style and pretend that I'm going to work.I looked at myself in the mirror after I had dressed up with my suit and a ponytail styled hair. I came out of the room and took my breakfast then strolled towards my car, goodness I wondered why I felt so tired. Maybe it's the symptoms of pregnancy, I would be getting tired really often.After I reached the company I came down from the car and walked into the main building.Everyone bowed as I walked past them and also greeted them, I just gave a wide smile and that's all. When I reached my office, all of the colleagues present in the department stood up on their feet and bowed their heads.I was surprised by this warm
VICTORIAGetting married to the man I loved the most was the best thing that was going to happen in my life.I gazed at myself in the mirror in my room and smiled. Alpha Mike, my husband-to-be, was an alpha of a great pack in New York called the Moon Crescent Pack.He was one of the sweetest men that ever lived, and even though he spoke rudely to me at times, I smiled and knew my man was going to change someday.He is going to fulfill the promise he made to me to become his luna, and my alpha won't fail me. I was dressed in a sparkling white wedding gown and a crown with my name inscribed on it—Victoria.I am Victoria Luza, the daughter of the alpha of a powerful but a non-famous pack called the Ringscent Pack.I was looking at my nice self in the mirror when I heard the door open."Hey sis," I said with a smile to Tiffany, my best friend, as she hugged me.I called her my sister because she was there for me. Anytime I needed her, she was my best friend right from childhood."I hope
VICTORIA"Oh no! It's the baby!" Rina voiced out in hysteria."Huh!" I shrieked as my heart thumped rapidly against my chest and fear overtook me. I can't believe I'm miscarrying. "Oh moon goddess, please save my baby! I beg of you! Argh!" I wailed as I felt a sharp pain in my stomach and swerved the car to halt at the corner of the road.My voice was full of cracks and the loss of so much blood was beginning to drain my strength. "Victoria! Please be strong!" Rina cried with pity-filled voice as I held my stomach in pain; I tried to start the car again and rush to a hospital but I could barely lift a finger, my body was saturated with sweat.'No, this isn't happening, I can't lose you, baby...' I cried in my mind and clutched my tummy, feeling excruciating pains in my womb."Help..., Some... Body... Please, help!" I called out in an almost inaudible voice but my words only came back to me in an echo. The night was so dark, threatening and exuded terror and the path I treaded was a
VICTORIA"What!!!" I exclaimed, wide-eyed and my mouth hung open."Coma?! For two years?! How the hell?!" I deepened the lines in my forehead as disarray took over my mind.How is that possible? Does it have a connection with my fall from the cliff?? "Please grandma, say something! I'm still as confused as ever!" I huffed."It was an attempted murder on your life. Your fall from the cliff was carefully planned out and executed by an unknown person. I found you by the cliff and brought you here to my village. So many things happened while you're in coma, my dear," Grandma informed and her bright mood suddenly turned bitterly sour. I wondered what happened while I was away and who actually attempted to murder me. The thoughts gave me a skull-splitting headache as I made my way back to the bed and sat on it.Grandma also sat on the bed close to me and held my hands. "I'm sorry Victoria, your mother is dead. She couldn't bear the pain of you getting disowned by your father so she comm
VICTORIA"Flip the BBQ over!" Grandma yelled at me.It was already evening and we are out here, barbecuing meat on a grill.This was one thing I loved about visiting my grandma; I always got the chance to explore her wide garden filled with berries and cherries, and enjoy the savory taste of her home-made evening barbecue. I went to do as she said and returned back to continue listening to her tales about Lycans as I don't really know much about Lycans cause they seem far-fetched to me and are few."And then, there's the Alpha of Solitaire Mystic pack," she announced, shifting from the scary story of Lycans."What about him?" I asked; we laid on the soft grass and gazed at the huge mountain from faraway that overlooked Grandma's old cottage house. "The pack was once situated in this village hundreds of years back but now, the leading pack Alpha, Alpha Brendon has spread the pack throughout the city of Los Angeles." She sighed as she spoke."Yeah I've heard about him grandma. During
=====================BRENDON“What?! They escaped?!” I roared in fury, my fingers turning into black claws. “We couldn't do anything Alpha, the plan was too meticulous," the fretting scout in front of me apologized.I slammed my fists into the wall, my eyes turning to a darker shade of red and my body trembling with a murderous intent."What direction are they heading?" I managed to ask through gritted teeth and clenched jaws."They're heading Eastward," the scout replied, bowing his head.I raised my head up and ordered, "gather our men, we are finding them tonight!"That being said, I stormed out of the building.It was full moon and I could hear howling of wolves from far and near. The whole army arrived and shape-shifted into wolves.I stood tall and imposing in front of the army, my piercing gaze sweeping over each of them in turn."We have no reason not to find them tonight," I growled, my bloodshot eyes flashing with fury.I paused for a moment, letting the weight of my word
VICTORIABefore I knew it, he threw a punch at me, and, unfortunately, the punch landed on my nose. "Arrghhhh," I groaned as I felt immense pain.Instead of showing concern, he just ignored me and scoffed. "Let's do this," I said, frowning, my face now becoming serious as he threw a punch at me. His hands alone were so heavy that he might overpower me, but I breathed in and twisted his arm like he said. "Nice one. Let's do this three more times," Brendon said as I sighed. After we did it about three times, I was already exhausted, but I was interested in learning more."Anytime you twist an enemy's arm the way I just taught you, don't just wait until he strikes back. Release a punch or hit his arm to save yourself some time," Brendon explained more, but I didn't understand what he just said. He turned to the training ground and called one of his warriors. "Raymond, come here for a minute," Alpha Brendon called, and he rushed here. "I need to show her something," he said as he thre
"Surprised? But are you sure she's safe now, Brendon?" He muttered as he laughed like a devil, trying to get the upper hand.Ifelt a cold rage build inside me, and I turned back to face him. For the first time in my life, I felt nervous. I could feel my wolf stirring, demanding to be let out to attack Arturo. How the hell did he find out she's my Luna? I didn't tell anyone about this. Even John didn't know until today."You have no idea what you've just done, you just made a grave mistake, Arturo. You don't want to mess with me or my Luna. I'll make sure you regret this," I said, my eyes blazing with fury, my teeth grounding hard against each other. My hands clenched into fists at my sides, and my eyes burned with fury. I took a step closer to him, towering over him as I continued."You touch a single hair on her head, and I'll make you regret it for the rest of your miserable life."Arturo chuckled, unfazed by my threats. "Oh, Alpha," he said, leaning back in his seat. "You alwa

She rolled her eyes at me, as I could tell that she was already angry with what I just said and I didn't give a damn."And what makes you think you are special? You are no better than me dear, don't think I betrayed you, I mean it's not my fault that Mike was my mate and you caught us having sex, isn't that what mates should do?" I do really understand what she is trying to do, make me annoyed and trigger my dreadful past, and she succeeded.Remembering my past is like hitting my chest on a wooden table, it's something I do really wish never to recall.I shook my head of the thoughts, it's very wrong of me trying to bring the past to a clean present and a bright future. I mean that is stupid of me, even my pup won't like it, thank goodness i met my real mate, I wonder what kind of mess I will be now. "Your betrayal thought me a fatal lesson Tiff, and thanks for that, it changes me and opened my eyes, I wish you happy life in your marriage with my ex husband or sorry, ex husband to
"Moses, are you alright?" I asked with concern laced in my voice as he was taken back and checked his eyes on the transparent window.Then he shook his head as he opened his eyes again then he turned to me, it was gone already, back to his normal eyes. This shit is scary."I'm okay though, my eyes change every time, but not frequently" he said as I nodded my head."Victoria, you should.take rest" he paused and continued. "And you" referring to the maid. "Make sure you go buy fruits, we are expecting an heir" he said as he bowed her head then he left, I didn't know why that made me smile. An heir? Without a loving father? "Ma'am" she came closer to me and tapped my shoulders."You shouldn't worry about Brendon at all, and focus on your child, I'm sure he is going to feel it and come back home...""It still baffles me, he doesn't pick my calls and he doesn't...""No, Victoria don't let that way you down, be happy you have a little one inside of you, a little Victoria in there, the r
John's pov "Listen to me, I'll be back okay?" He said with hastiness in his voice as she nodded her head. He ran out of the apartment As he entered his car and zoomed off. He began to call Brendon but he wasn't picking up his call, he got angry as she slammed his hand on the steering wheel. When he reached the hospital he came down and rushed inside the building as soon as he sighted Moses he ran to his place."How is she now, what even happened?" I asked as he ran his hands into his hair, he then sighed before he responded"She is pregnant" He released the bombshell as I opened my eyes widely.I really couldn't believe it and how was I going to tell Brendon about this news? "She fainted, so I took her to the hospital and this was the news I heard" "How do you think Brendon will take the news?" "What do you mean by that? Victoria is not a wore, and I'm definitely sure Brendon would accept it but though it's too soon" "So where is she now?" I asked as he pointed at the room o
I sat frozen for a moment, my mind racing with questions. Who was this person? What were their intentions?But I couldn't stop now, not when I was so close to uncovering the truth.I knew I had to tell Anita, the secretary and confidante. But as soon as I mentioned the news, she shook her head vigorously, her eyes wide with disbelief. "No, that can't be possible! No one can change the rules, but is there a problem?" she exclaimed, her voice tinged with panic.I tried to calm her down, to explain the situation in detail. But the more I spoke, the more anxious she became. I could see the worry etched on her face, the way her hands shook as she reached for a pen to take notes.But then I had a sudden realization. What if telling Anita was a mistake? What if I was putting her in danger? I needed to protect her, even if it meant keeping the truth from her."I think it's best if I leave now," I said softly, standing up from my chair. "If anyone asks about our conversation, maybe Moses can
As I looked at her, I could see the shock written all over her face. Her eyes widened, and her mouth formed a small "o" as if she had just seen a ghost. I felt a surge of anger rising within me. I wanted to send her out of my office right away, but I knew it would make me look childish. Instead, I decided to use her as a scapegoat.She had the audacity to challenge Victoria Luza in the hallway, as if she had any power in this company. I could hear her voice echoing through the corridor, threatening to make my life a living hell. I couldn't believe the nerve of this woman.But now the tables had turned. I was the one in charge, and I would make sure she regretted ever crossing me. I smiled to myself as I thought of the ways I could make her suffer.As I watched her standing there, so clueless and ignorant, I couldn't help but feel a sense of disgust. People like her, with such low intelligence and lack of decorum, deserved to be put in their place."You can take your leave now, Anita,"
I rushed to her place and threw a punch at the man, he tried to punch me back but I used my wolf powers to fling him to the floor. He groaned in pain as I breathed heavily and grabbed her hands, leading her quickly to the car. She sat down, already scared. "Are you okay?" I asked. She nodded silently. I opened the door and she climbed in. I wanted to ask her who the man was but I held back, knowing it might remind her of her past. Her tears told me there was no need to disturb her further with questions. I started the car and drove back to the apartment, sighing as I climbed out. I opened her door and helped her step out, then led her inside. Once we were safely in the apartment, I spoke gently.As she reached for the groceries bag, I instinctively held on tight. "No, it's fine sir," she insisted. But I couldn't let her carry the heavy load alone. Without a word, I took the bag and walked her to her doorstep. Opening the door for her, I followed her inside and headed straight to
"What?" she exclaimed loudly, her voice cracking as tears streamed down her face. She grabbed my collar and slammed me against the wall, her fingers digging into my flesh. I tensed up, ready to defend myself, but I knew I couldn't hurt Brendon."Where the fuck is he?" she spat with malice, her eyes blazing with anger. She tightened her grip on my collar, pulling me closer to her face. I could feel her hot breath on my skin.I sighed sadly, my shoulders slumping. I knew I couldn't tell her where Brendon was. He was at a hotel, but I didn't want to risk angering my sister and ruining our relationship."I don't know, sis I'm telling you the truth " I said, my voice barely above a whisper. I could feel her rage building, her body trembling with fury. She pushed me away from her, sending me sprawling on the ground."Who the fuck is your sister?" she snapped, towering over me. "A quick reminder, little boy: I am your queen. Don't fuck with me. How can you not know where he is?" She turned t
"This can't be happening. Am I dreaming?" I muttered under my breath, trying to make sense of what was unfolding before me.Out of nowhere, my sister Josephine threw a handful of sand at my face and took off running into the nearby woods. The shock of the attack left me weak and I stumbled, falling to the ground as I tried to clear the sand from my eyes."Josephine?" I screamed as I let out a cry of despair. This wasn't the life I wanted for her. How had she become an assassin? She was supposed to be in Germany with her abusive husband, and I had promised to save her before I was forced to flee to New York. Why was life so unfair to us?As I watched Josephine's swift movements, I couldn't help but notice how she moved with the precision of a trained killer. Who had turned her into this? What was their endgame? I shuddered at the thought.Suddenly, I remembered a conversation I had with Ralph, and a sense of dread washed over me. He had known Josephine's true purpose all along and had
