**Duncan pov**I carried on with my activities with little to no enthusiasm, I was really waiting for Candace to report back to me but as I did I knew I could not push him, he was probably still bonding and catching up with his sister but I hope he finds time to approach her- Beatrice/ Luna red. At this moment I would willingly welcome any distractions even war if it would get my mind off the wait, it was a torture on its own Right now I was sitting in my vast office at the pack house, I had a lot of work to do and applications on my desk to approve but I was just not feeling like it, I looked at the digital calendar on my desk and could not help but think about my birthday, this was my birth month and I would be 32 this week but I did not feel the excitement that came from becoming a year older, what I felt was pure dread an fear. This would be my last year alive, there was no escaping it now. I have accepted death, I mean we all would die one day but what I did not accept and wh
Duncan led us to our individual rooms, he first took Tania to a large room where she could stay before showing falcon his, falcon wanted to still follow us but I signal for him to rest for the night, I knew Duncan won’t harm me. Stretched to Duncan and took my luggage off him before finally showing me to my room. In my three years of living here I never got to visit every part of the house as I had a routine so I did not know intimately well the other rooms in it except two and he was leading me down the path that was very familiar It was my old room, very close to the master room which was his, all we shared was a wall as it was on the saw hall wayI walked in and it felt like I was transported back to before I left, the room felt like a memorabilia museum, everything was exactly the way I last left it when I ran, it was almost like nothing changed except the sheetsHas he been sleeping here?“It’s exactly the same!” I said in shock as I turned to look at him, he had a sad smile o
**Duncan pov**Duncan had no idea what to say to her, he could see that she had gotten all upset, he opened his mouth to say something but suddenly decided agains it, after been with her for three years he could instantly tell when it is pointless having a talk with her, he knew when she was irrational and nothing said to her in that pace would be the right thing to say, back then when she was neither pregnant or a Luna, back then she was still a trouble when she was in this mood, and now, now she was both pregnant and a very Powerful Luna, now, there was no way he could win against her and even if there was a way he would not take it as he really needs her to stay.He will prove to her with time that he means well and he really care for her but until then he would avoid any direct confrontation.He walked into his room and Beatrix was there, she was pacing around impatiently obvio
“Who is there?!” I called“It’s Falcon. Luna” I smiled, of cause he would come find me“The door is open” i said inviting him inFalcon walked into the room, closing the door behind him and then turning to face usHe instantly paused, looking from Beatrix to me and then back to her. Suddenly he looked down at our stomachs. I smiled at his confusion, I would have loved to play a game with him if he could tell us apart but my stomach was a dead giveaway “I remember you!” Beatrix said with a sweet smile to falcon as she went towards him So they have met before? “Hello Beatrix” falcon said to her in an awkward smile avoiding her gaze almost like he was shy So he knows her name as well“I can finally see why you confused me for her the other day” she said to him as she reached him and turned to face me as well and he blushed What was happening?Why was Falcon suddenly acting like a teenager who has a crush “Okay Luna, it was nice to meet you, I hope yo see you around” she turned to
“What?” She probably was not expecting these lines of questioning but she could not deny she that it did not cross her mind that I might have to ask her“I said Who else did you tell about the pregnancy after I told you that day? I need to know and I want you to tell me the truth!” I demanded“No one! I swear to you I told no one, how could I tell anyone? I chased you away before my alpha could know and find out about it so there was no way I would go around telling people something like that, what if it finds it’s way back to him?!” She had a point there, it would be stupid in her part to go around exposing herself, if the alpha hears about what she did he could as well have her killed for it and no one would bat an eyelash“So you are certain you are the only one who knows about it?” I needed to be sure, everything might depen
BREAKFAST “Hey?” Duncan whispered to me as I sat down close to him by his right hand side, I loved the smile on his face, very genuine with a sexuality to it, I felt good knowing he still found me sexy even though I felt bloated, with the way he was looking at me I would have leaned in to kiss him if we were alone. “Hey!” I replied back as I tired to hold my excitement “You look very beautiful, looking at you right now brought back some suppressed memory!” He was teasing me. I knew it and I felt my cheek burn up in a blush. “I hope they were good memories?” He blushed as well The way he affects me should be studied “I am sorry about last night, the way I left” this was not the place to have that particular conversation he wanted. “We will address that later okay?!”“Okay!”“Everyone I apologize as I am really sorry for coming out late, I was tired last night and overslept, I can only imagine how hungry you all must be!” It was the polite thing to do, I might be Luna but I still
Breakfast went well as I noticed how everyone bonded and talked, Falcon and Beatrix were having a moment as I noticed an undeniable bond between them and I made a mental note to ask Duncan of his relationship with her DJ that my beta would not have his heart broken twice because of him, Duncan and Tania on the other hand were reminiscing about their childhood and who did what as I just stayed there and watched, a little proud, I have always wanted a large family, I came from a small family and both died before I reached mature age and I was then cursed with a family that never cared about me but what I can subdue them and because if that I have always wanted a large family where we all cared and loved each other, where we could have elaborate breakfast like this and talk about everything, and by my side a mate who cares so much for me he would do anything to protect me and his children. That has always been a dream of mine and I knew this was the closet I
Miguel was the first and only successful child of his parents, after a series of still births his parents experienced, his parents -Alpha Raymon and Luna Monica were both fed up and hopeless, Loosing 5 children before they were even born would do that to you. After losing 5 children in the womb before they were even born, they both were a little skeptical about this particular child that laid in Luna Monica’s womb, they were both convinced it would be another still birth and so expected another as much but instead on that faithful delivery date, much to their surprise and delight Miguel was born and he was breathing, the doctor gently tapped on his flesh and he squealed and filled the room with his healthy cries. Even in her drained state Monica sat up and begged to see him; her baby that finally survived, they both named him Miguel which means he was a miracle-neither of them expected.Miguel grew up to be very healthy he was a perfect son in every sense of the word and any parent
Bianca stood by the hallways as she still listened in on the alpha, he sounded extremely furious at what had just happened as he cursed and swore He cursed Them both and all the gods imaginable in his speech. As Bianca listened in she could not help but feel she was doomed, with what just transpired she knew she would eventually be in trouble, she was in a dilemma, at first before both parties ended up the way they just did she thought about staying under the radar and waiting for whatever outcome, at first she deduced that Olivia would cave and run out of the valley allowing her to find a way to corner the alpha and either make him marry her or kill his off with a way to become Luna after his untimely death, it was a nice flow if that happened but then again she thought of the possibility of Olivia sticking with Royce and they both seek a full out war, she thought if that happens she would lay low and watch for both parties to kill each other and expose its losers and winners. It
BEATRICE POV Yes, yes we should let it slide and leave with our lives, how is this even a debate, can he not see a stupid revenge was not worth his life? “You just want to fight him because of your hunger for vengeance, you don’t care if this hunger of yours kills you or even me, I guess all is fair trade provided you win in the end” I shouted at him, this man has a way of always getting on my nerves, always! What I said seem to get to him, he fell quiet the moment i said it and I suddenly felt very bad, I know this was an argument and I am very angry but I never wanted to hurt him“Do you really feel I don’t care about you or if you live?” He suddenly asked, I know I just accused him of of that but if I am being honest I do not believe it, I know duncan, I know this man and I know he would rather die than watch anything happen to me, he just proved it some time back when he took a silver blade to his chest, then he did not know silver would not have a fatal effect on him and yet
BEATRICE OV This was not something to debate with myself over, I did not need to think if i wanted to stay and fight for justice and my position as alpha or if I wanted to take Duncan and leave, none of that mattered one bit, the only thing that mattered was the man by my side and I know that in a full out war there were no rules, everyone becomes a target, I can live with dying, I have done it before, it’s not that bad except the part of eternal regret but what I cannot live with is Duncan dying, i will never leave in a world that takes him from him, Duncan dying will shake me to my very foundation. At this moment I know adolf was manipulating me, you don’t need an expert to see what he was doing and what he aims to achieve with it but what he was using to manipulate me was very potent, it would not fail and he knew it. suddenly it all made sense “Is that why you insisted I come alone and not bring Royce ?” I asked him suddenly getting his odd request. At first I assumed he put
Bianca really hates it and wonders what everyone sees in her, why for some reason everyone wants her approval, she did not matter. She is just inconsequential, a spoilt brat that does things out of a wimp, the same one who ran away from the villa simply because she was bored, there were werewolves in the villa who would kill for the opportunity she has and yet, time and time again she has abused and thrown away such opportunities and yet they kept coming to her. what made her so special?Why can’t everyone see she does not deserve everything she has?why can’t they all see that?If there was anyone in the valley who deserves to be treated as a princess, begged in for opinion in issues that matters and should be worshiped by all men, it should be her not that stupid princess!Beatrice was just some brainless little princess that had no brain and maybe just a little beauty and yet the way she manages to awe and control those around her was just annoying and wrong. Now she has the two
Bianca could not believe what she was hearing, the way he was accepting to killing people, the choking sound, the claim of mind reading, everything was off, this has to be some practical joke on their parts, they know she was listening in on them, they have to, that is why they are talking and acting this way, that was the only explanation that made sense of not then everything was just wrong!!!! Earlier today the alpha had called Beatrice to his home office and had instructed her to tell the kitchen staff to cook meals of different delicacies as Beatrice would be coming over for dinner, furthermore she was instructed to dismiss them all after that while she was to stay behind and assist, naturally Beatrice went into panic mode, she suspected the alpha yelling her to stay behind as a guise of assisting had to be Beatrice doing; Bianca knew Beatrice knows about her attack on her life with that assassin debacle, she knew for a fact the attack came from her and she even confronted her w
Adolf knew he had no reason to lie, maybe he is ever a little bit but the bottom line is he is telling the truth, this really is a bummer. He cracked his head thinking of a way out but could not see one, his advantage was that, they did not want him dead rather wanted him to pay and rot in cell or probably a death sentence, but they wanted it done legally. That was his advantage while he on the other hand did not care about such things as due process, he was going to get the job done by any means possible. Right now he wants to offer them a bargain, he plans on using Duncan as the extra bargaining chip, and probably the most important one and he would use him to make them take his deal. If they do take this deal then he would be in the clear, there was no one else to challenge him, maybe just that person who is trying to kill Beatrice, but by all attack the unknown person seems to have eyes only for her but if by chance he clears this hurdle and the unknown person were to come for
Adolf was totally taken off guard by what had just happened to him, one moment he was speaking and smiling and the next moment he was choking on his on words. Adolf massaged his neck at the spot where he was just choked, it felt so real, almost like someone was really on top on him applying pressure to his neck, if not that he had his eyes open all along he would have sworn Duncan had attacked him and pressed his neck. Adolf have always know duncan was a magician or “forbidden” as it is called here, after all he was the one who stole him from his parents and country but he never suspected he had powers. When staying with the forbiddens he learnt a lot about them and their culture, and during that time he came to understand those powers as well as he realized that though all forbiddens are gifted in the art of spells and spoken magic but very very few had the ability to exhibit real magic emitting from within the individual. To get a handle of your magic they had to train right fro
BEATRICE POVI looked at him and simply nodded to him, he instantly understood what I meant by that as we put our hands into our pockets and fished out our mobile devices, we both switched it off and placed it in front of us on the table surface. HE smiled broadly at the act, pleased, I could tell he did not know how we would have acted to that his request as well and his behavior was one that seemed like he just wanted to talk honestly and openly without any body listening in or recording our talk, I am sure he did not want anyone listening in on what he had to say and the confessions he was would possible agree to He gestured for Bianca to come forward with his hand and she did promptly“Bianca, please take these devices and step out for a bit, we want to have a personal conversation together and when we are all done here I will call back for you” She nodded politely and stretched for our phones, taking it off the table before heading for the exit, we all waited patiently as she l
BEATRICE POVDuncan and I briefed melly on what was going on. We told her about what we think happened to May’s mother, and about the impromptu visit we just got and how we intend to honor the invitation, we then tasked her with the protection of May while we were gone. It was obvious that the alpha and his goons had no idea that May was still alive and even though I was certain of that, but in the off chance that we were wrong and this is just one deceitful plan to get Me out the way while the make another attack on May, so I knew that I could not let my guard down. I instructed her to lock the everywhere and stay indoors and no matter what happens she is not to open the door for anyone except Duncan and I and with how secure the house was not, it would be virtually impossible to come inside without those inside knowing about the intrusion. Those were the instructions I specifically gave and I was confident they would be fine but then again there is duncan. All my plans to subve
