Wren called for an urgent meeting with the beta.She had to make sure that the decision she took can be executed as soon as possible."You called for me, Luna?" Bowed Sam."Yes, Beta. Take a seat." She ordered while walking to her chair."What happened your majesty?" "Eram happened, he's planning on taking over the throne.""WHAT? Who told you?" "Well, he himself.""That's insane, his majesty was right when he didn't trust him. What are we going to do then?""I want him and his mother in the dungeons. You'll be the only one to take the food to their cells, I can't risk anyone knowing about them, they might have allies.""How'd you suggest doing then, Luna?""We'll arrest them before dawn, pick trustworthy soldiers to do the job and only them will know their whereabouts, put them in the secluded dungeon, I heard we have more than one."Beta Sam nodded his head, agreeing with his leader."What about Ethan?" He asked."I like Ethan, we're pretty close. For now, send him away from the c
Waking up startled at dawn, Wren remembered that she didn't inform mother Eleanor, but maybe her son already informed her! Still, she had to inform the queen herself and ask about the southern land's King."Queen Eleanor! Are you there?" Mindlinked a hopeful Luna.After a few seconds, Wren received a reply from her mentor."Yes, darling! what's wrong? Is everything alright?" "King Zanthus is coming back today. I wanted to inform you and ask about you.""Yes, my dear I heard about the good news, your father in law is on his way too. We'll meet again soon, young Luna." "I'm so happy to hear that mother Eleanor, so be it then, we'll meet soon. Take care." She smiled.Wren stood up from the bed and walked towards the balcony, it was getting warmer around the kingdom, trees that were once white gained their colour back, the castle's gardens welcomed the roses and flowers again.Breathing in the fresh air, she felt joyful and excited, her tummy tickled from all the butterflies she was exp
"Why didn't you mind-link me?" She asked snuggling into him."When we left the castle's grounds, we found out that many of our soldiers teamed up with the enemy, father was captured for a month and turns out some witches betrayed us and worked against the two kingdoms. I had to find a way to free the King and get rid of my uncle at the same time. things were hectic and dangerous, I've never fought in a battle more irritating than this. You never left my mind, but I had to prioritize so I can return to you alive." He explained, kissing her forehead."Eram wanted to take over, but I put him and his mother in the dungeons and sent Ethan away to another pack, I can show you later everything that I've worked on so you're updated about the situation, as for the villagers, like usual they received their endowments. I have written a report for everything, it'll be easier to check it." She informed in a serious tone.Zanthus looked at her in impressment, "When did you grow up?" He smiled, hugg
"Congratulations, your majesty our Luna is expecting." Informed the old healer. Zanthus smiled while looking at his adorable Queen, indeed she looked even more divine, his mate glowed while having part of his soul growing in her. "Thank you, you may leave." He nodded to the old lady giving her permission to leave with her assistants. "I'm proud of you." He whispered in her ear while his right hand found her tummy and his left hand played with her hair. "I'm nervous." She smiled nervously. "You will be alright, we got this." Time flew by and the spring breeze turned into the summer heat and the latter turned into crunchy leaves and orangy trees and so on. "You're not allowed to move, I'll bring you a book and you just sit there and read it, I'll do the work." He ordered. "You made me read books for months, I want to work." She nagged. "No, you need to relax, eat well and listen to me." He stated while focusing on the work at hand. "This is unfair, I'm getting bored, and I don'
"Yes Alpha, the pack has been finished, though I must say Alpha Josh did put up a fight," the new pack member reported, standing at attention in front of their alpha who stood in front of the glass windows, his back to them, staring out at the dark cloudy skies, ones in likeness to his soul, dark and angry.As the rumbling of the clouds indicated that a storm was soon to come, their alpha stood straight, the broad expanse of his shoulders blocking their view of what was outside, and his tall frame of 6'3 didn't help either, as he wore a dark suit, his entire look sharp.His hands behind his back, showing light glimpses of the many tattoos that were hidden under his jacket, as the fabric around his arms stretched, trying to hold in the rippling muscle underneath that threatened to break free.His hair, ended right above his nape, as they looked messy from him running his rough tan hands through them.He then turned around, assessing his warriors that had brought them the news, both of
It had been a week since Venus had been walking around, in search of a pack she could settle into and call home, as she was walking through the thick forest, silently munching on her chips while her headphones were tucked in her ears.She heard slight rustling, due to her sharp werewolf senses she felt it and took off her headphones, adrenaline pumping in, the entire 'fight or flight' kicking in.She put her food away, and she then heard footsteps, shortly after three tall and burly men emerged from behind the thick bushes, all three of them shirtless with impressive bodies on show.Werewolves were used to seeing such toned bodies, humans weren't.The one in the middle snarled and looked at her in disgust, slightly offended she looked down at herself, she was wearing a white tee that was tucked into her light denim jeans, a pair of white converse, and a denim jacket to complete her look, Venus had also showered this morning in one of the motel rooms."What are you doing on pack land r
"Hello sweetheart," the beta said, completely oblivious to what happened between the alpha and the girl."Alpha, beta Knox," her captors acknowledged, bowing slightly,Meanwhile, Venus was still frozen, unable to believe his silent rejection of her, her eyes begging him to say something."State the problem boys," Knox said impatiently."Sir she was trespassing," they said."So what's new in this, question her and put her in the cells, you're acting as if you're new to this procedure," Knox snapped.All the while Dante was silent, his eyes cold.Venus felt as if her lungs were on fire, his silent rejection and the fact that he was not even defending her made her wolf growl in her head, so she took matters into her own hands."I've been over with this ten times, you three are clearly deaf, sir look, I didn't know I was on pack land, okay, I meant no harm, can I please leave, your warriors are not as smart as rumor says they are, they look like fools!" venus exclaimed, she knew she shoul
It had been an entire week ever since she had found out Dante was her mate and ever since she had been living with him in the mansion.After James and Sophia cajoled him, Dante finally gave in to letting Venus out of her room and allowing her to walk around. Both of them even took Venus shopping for clothes, shoes, and other necessities to a mall.Her routine was quite simple, wake up, join Dante for breakfast which consisted of no conversing from either side, then she would walk around the gardens, James after finding out that Venus knew how to paint insisted on buying her the tools.So she painted when she felt like it, then she would have lunch, chit chat with Mary and later Sophia and James would hang out with her, or they would take her out with them.Venus also had learned over the last week that despite the scary look that Knox painted he was an utter sweetheart, he was very protective and possessive of Sophia,while Gabriel didn't show much emotion in front of others, he was v
9 years later 'oh for goodness sake Knox,' Sophia grumbled angrily, watching her mate stalk an 11 year old boy who had given their daughter Grace a rose from the gardens,'try Dante,' Venus scoffed, remembering how her mate had growled at a boy who called Athena pretty and complimented her dress, she remembered how she had to pull her mate to the side and give him a full scolding for being so overprotective,'at least you have one girl, I have two and a possessive crazy beta wolf to deal with,' Sophia grounded out, the couple now had another 3-year-old baby girl, she was the exact replica of her father but her features were soft, Nina, as Knox insisted they name her also had her fathers characteristics, 'where are they now,' Venus murmured, they were all out in the gardens, having a little picnic, their mates and kids had wandered off somewhere playing hide and seek, James and Gabriel said they would join them in a while because they had some work to do.'wow vee you've worked up
Searing pain gripped his entire being, his chest was heaving, his breath coming out in short uneven pants, and a vicious growl escaped his chest he felt like his lungs were on fire,he felt the bond break, and he felt his Lycan whine out in pain before he vanished, he heard screams around him but they fell deaf on his ears.Dante looked up, his vision blurry, all he saw was a nurse pulling the doctor back to the operation room, Knox trying to get him to stand up while James slipped to the floor unconscious.His senses were dulled out but the pain in his chest didn't, his head lolled back and rested against the wall, Sophia and Knox tended to him while Gabriel was with James, 'tell her to come back to me,' he rasped in pain, as Sophia gently cupped his cheek and cried, Knox's shoulders dropped in defeat, his friend just lost his everything, 'Dante please please get it together please, the babies-,' Sophia sobbed out, trying to get him to zone back in, gently shaking him but his eyes
2 weeks had passed since that incident, the air between the alpha and luna was tense but even a fool could tell they'd die for each other in a heartbeat, when problems would arise they'd put their differences aside and be there for each other to the fullest, because that was what love meant, to hold onto each other even when the storm is at its loudest, threatening to rip them apart.'i swear he's so dumb like its right behind you,' James screeched angrilyVenus giggled and continued to munch on her snacks while Sophia shook her head at them, they were watching a new show that Gabriel had suggested, and anything Gabriel suggests is always a must-watch,'i feel like the girl is the killer for some reason,' Venus muttered, she was due in a week and today of all days she felt better, she had the energy to sit at least and not feel like she was about to pass out every few minutes,they were waiting for the healer to arrive to give Venus her potion, Dante, Knox, and Gabriel were in the r
1 month later'stupid protective Lycan,' venue huffed angrily stuffing her 4th pancake in her mouth and chewing on it like she had all the time in the world,it's like the man didn't even know what space was, he was always after her, heck this morning he decided he wanted to carry her down the stairs after Venus had grounded out a firm no, the stubborn lycan picked her up and sauntered down the staircase.her angry outburst fell deaf on his ears, she was going to be round and fat in a week if this kept up, she was only two months along and he was acting like this, the thought of how he would be when she was a few months pregnant from now made her shudder.The first few weeks were hectic with the checkups and always being careful but she had now learned to get used to it.James and Sophia would visit every second day and they were also very protective of her, it wasn't only a friend thing but she was the luna carrying the future heir, so the protectiveness therein doubled.'hey soph,'
Venus woke up to blinding white lights, white walls, a hospital bed, and a very very fuming Dante who was watching her like a hawk, ready to pounce her, the pack doctor standing right beside him giving Venus a sheepish smile.'w-what happened?' venus asked, her throat parchedsilently Dante walked towards her, filled up a cup with water, and had her drink it, the pack doctor cleared his throat and looked up at venus smiling, 'congratulations luna, you're pregnant,'silence,silence so loud venus could hear her heart beating wildly out of her chest, blood roaring in her ears,'how long-''you're almost over a month pregnant now,' the pack doctor replied, sensing his alpha's heated gaze which he couldn't meet so he excused himself, saying he had to bring some tests back from the lab.a heavy eerie silence enveloped the room and venus could have sworn that the door Dante was glaring at would catch fire any second, or he would glare a hole through it.'say something,' Venus whispered mee
A month had passed since Knox and Sophia had their beautiful daughter and things had been going smoothly other than the fact that rogue sighting had increased a lot, this would happen every few years, rogues would reproduce amongst themselves a lot and they'd try getting into pack territory.the warriors would chase them off the territory but they wouldn't stop coming back, they wouldn't attack but they'd move around. Dante had been in contact with neighboring pack alphas to know that they were dealing with a similar situation, and dealing with all of that as well as trying to find an effective solution to the problem was had Dante busy for weeks straight, Knox would help now and then but he was mostly at home with the baby and Sophia which doubled work on Dante and Gabriel.it was after dinner that Dante and Venus finally got an hour to themselves, a soft kiss from Venus soon turned passionate and ended up with them making love right next to the fireplace in the living room,'i mi
'ARE YOU KIDDING ME KNOX,' Sophia screechedAll those wondering what happened, Sophia and Knox invited everyone over for dinner, Venus, Dante, James, Gabriel, and a few other friends of Knox and Sophia, long story short, right after dinner Venus and Sophia were messing around in the kitchen while getting desert, and Venus may or may not have jump scared Sophia which caused her water to break...it was complete havoc, to say the least.Sophia was actually a week overdue, so she wasn't surprised when her water broke, the heavily pregnant blonde was as calm as the sea but the same couldn't be said for her big mate who was knocking over chairs and decoration pieces in a rush to get the baby bag and zip Sophia to the hospital,frustrated at how her mate was sweating, INSISTING he carried her and actually swooping her up into his arms without waiting for her reply, acting like she was dying, Sophia had enough.'Knox,' Sophia seethed, trying to grab a hold of him,the big man paid no heed t
He had to find her, passing a look to Knox to take over the meeting he shifted and lunged across the room, he had to get to her.'Venus, baby where are you' he tried mind linking her but he got no response at all 'don't go anywhere and stay where you are' Pushing his legs faster he ran like his life depended on it, and it did, his life did depend on it,reaching the middle of the dense forest he tried finding paw-prints but found none, angling his head up he breathed in deeply, he found what he was looking for, her scent.Running in the direction the scent led him, after two minutes of constant running he came across a ledge, his heart sunk, this is where her scent ended and she wasn't here she coul- no no she couldn't, trying to calm his Lycan and himself, so lost in his inner battle of where his mate could be and if she was okay or not he wasn't aware of his surroundings and heart a twig snap to his right,jerking his head towards the side he stepped closer to the bushy area, ca
'what do you mean I won't be able to have pups?' Venus whispered in disbelief, her honey-brown eyes wide with unshed tears, as her lower lip trembled and the color in her cheeks heightened from the internal hysteria her body was feeling.Dante sighed and went to sit next to her on the bed, 'Venus, despite the fact that you have alpha blood running in you doesn't make you strong enough in regards to carrying my pup, I am a Lycan, a full lycan, not one part of me is a werewolf, a Lycan pregnancy is very different, its very painful and the mother has to be a lycan to be able to withstand and birth a healthy lycan pup, in this regard you cannot give birth Venus, I'm sorry, I can't stand the thought of losing my mate in the process of giving me pups, I refuse to put you through that.''b-but Sophia and Knox- e-even he was afraid to have pups but everything is oka-' Venus said in manic, her voice trembling as if trying to convince herself and Dante it would work,Dante sensing her panic
