Selene’s POV

His wolf had its eyes fixed on mine, and I found myself standing still and unable to move. I had seen his wolf from afar, and I knew he had a strange wolf compared to most wolves I had seen, but lucians wolf was half my height.

His fur was as dark as night, and under the warm sun, his bright brown eyes glimmered. And as it walked toward me, I froze on a spot, drawn to it’s foreign charm. It got close enough to rub its nose on my clothes like it was sniffing me. It must be because it was the first time meeting me in person.

“Thanks for bringing her back safely.” I whispered to show my appreciation, but his reaction was unexpected. His wolf shifted back, and Lucian stood before me with a frown on his face.

“Get out of my way." His shoulder slammed on mine before he aggressively walked away. This little action had everyone staring at him and murmuring to themselves as he walked into the house. I, on the other hand, was still suffering the pain the impact of his shoulder h

    Selene’s POVHis eyes were fixed on mine as his body towered over me, but I stood with confidence, not letting his attitude break me, but the closeness between us took me back to memory lane.Once, when he wasn’t such an overbearing wolf, he was a boy attending the same language school as me. He had the brightest smile and the calmest voice. I only attended classes because I was certain he was going to be there, and I could hear him speak.One special day, we had collided and fell unto each other; it was the closest we were to each other after years of growing in the same pack and the day he spoke directly with me. Time had stopped, and I found myself falling for his big brown eyes and his facial harmony.We stood up together and he helped me dust my body."Sorry, I bumped into you.” He said. He stretched his hands, and he placed a kiss on my hand. “My name is Lucian.”Now fastforward to the present. He had his hands wrapped around my neck, his teeth clenching hard against each other;

    Selene’s POVWhile still in panic, my eager eyes surveyed the room; everything seemed totally fine, and the only sound my ears could pick was the sizzling sound of the bonfire in the middle of the pack.I stood up from the bed and I covered my little girl; it was best that she slept through anything that was to happen, and while I searched the room for a sharp object, my eyes met a piece of wood at the end of the room, so I took it and I held it close to me.“Estel, where's the wolf, and is it Alex?”“I can’t tell, but they are fast approaching and have passed the borders.”“How did you know if you can’t tell who it is?”“I don’t know Selene; I felt foreign wolves enter the pack, it might be Alex but I can’t tell. You need to raise the alarm,” she continued A sigh escaped my lips as I took a peek through the narrow lines of the hut again; all this made little to no sense at all, but all the same, I could not resist my wolf if there was anything I had learned after my miraculous awaken

    Selene’s POVI was taken back to the healers' ward and was made to sit with a coat above my shoulders.Emily snapped a finger before my eyes. “ You are zoning out again, Selene. Stay with me, what did I say?” My weary eyes slightly glanced up at the lady before me, her brow furrowed in a lasting frown as I barely paid attention to her.“I am fine, uhm, fine fine,” I managed to say. She held my shoulders with both hands.“That’s not what I asked Selene; you are in shock, and you need to calm your racing heart, or else you will pass out.”“I am fine,” I responded this time. I could not think of a better word to say other than what I had just said, but it wasn’t enough; she wanted me to say something else.“Look at me,” she commanded, and I did just that.“Now, how many fingers am I holding?”“Three,” I said with ease. What was she thinking? That I had some concussion or something?“Well, that’s bad; you can’t see clearly; I had two fingers up; I think the impact with the floor on your he

    Selene’s POVGentle taps on my face pulled me out of oblivion.“Mummy, mummy,” Ella's voice rang in my mind. At first I had mistaken it for a dream—a very realistic dream—but she pulled the lids of my eyes open."Mummy, wake up,” she whispered again.Her little finger slapped my cheeks, then pulled on my lips.“Mummy”Forcefully pulled out of slumber, my eyes fluttered open, and I met her curious eyes staring down at me; her expression held worries and confusion.“What is it?” I asked with a long sigh while trying to sit upright; waking me up from sleep was her new motive.“Mummy, we are not in our own hut anymore! We changed houses,” she whispered close to my ears. The disappointment hit me.“Baby, you were sleeping when we changed houses." I pulled her in, then placed a kiss on her forehead. “You don’t have to worry; we are fine. There was an attack in the pack so your Uncle Lucian said it would be best if we moved; that’s why.”“Attack? What attack?”Cleaning my eyes, I sagged back

    Lucian’s POVWe were finally on our spot for the hunt, focused and determined to get it right. Winter was approaching; we needed more fur for the pack and more meat. That was why we targeted bears because they would give us all that.Our eyes were focused on the target, a grizzly bear walking in the forest, totally unaware of the threat. I mindlinked with the wolves by my side; they had their eyes on it as well. We lowered our gaze to the ground, ready to attack, when I spotted another bear by the side, but before I could alarm them, they attacked.The sudden attack caused a tumult: two mighty bears against my wolves; their sharp fingers were fast and furious as they slammed two wolves into a nearby tree.“Confuse it!” I said in a mind-link.We were different wolves with different hunting patterns, so I had to direct them. Now while they focused on the closer wolf, I and Joan chose to take care of the latter.“Take the legs,” I added.And while others took to the path of crippling its

    Lucian’s POV“Speak up, young man, what’s your problem? Is it the food or clothing?’’ The blind boy hesitated and my patience was running thin. My legs were hurting.“Uhm, Alpha, I just don’t know if I can say this with everyone in the room…”“This is a safe space; Joan and Emily are the backbone of the pack, you should always feel safe saying things in their presence, in my absence or presence,” I confirmed. I watched his little sister whisper something into his ears, then he relaxed.Whatever he had to say was definitely not food or clothing; I suspected a contagious disease, which he was scared would share with others, or maybe he wanted me to help him bring someone; whatever it was, it was definitely hard to say.“While taking a stroll in the pack, I heard... I heard two wolves talking about yesterday's attack; they said the scent that was tracked was misleading, they are working for the fae queen chief, and they also said something about a precious stone—a moonstone,” he said.

    ‘Winter’My fingers traced the lines of the word engraved on the mask as I drank liquor from the cup in my hands.Ten years ago, I was still in the pack and was doing my strength training behind the side of the pack when I spotted Selene approaching me. The sight of her caused me to trip and I had broken an arm, but I didn’t acknowledge it. I was focused on making an impression on the lady, so I held my aching hand while feigning a smile. She ran out of a meeting held by her father and mine and wanted to spend some time alone. That day was the first day we had the longest conversation and the day I fell deeper in love with her. She called me summer because it was her favorite season of the year.I didn’t have a favorite season before that day; it was a nickname she teased me with, but it was all a ploy to get to me, but not anymore; summer died the day she betrayed me, leading to the birth of winter.‘You are paranoid, Lucian, she can’t be, she’s smarter.' Escarno whispered, We were d

    Selene's POVThe sight of Emily in a blood-deranged cloth almost gave me a panic attack; the sight of the little girl in her arms made me think it was Ella at first until Joan walked in with a boy in her arms. There faces were coated with blood and I only knew who they were when I got the opportunity to get closer to them; it was the blind boy and his little sister. They were murdered mercilessly. While in a state of shock, I staggered backward; my heart palpitated even faster. The first thing that crossed my mind was Ella, my baby. I walked out of the room in search of her, just to make sure she was safe and whatever pandemic was going on in the pack, she wasn't a part of it.I rushed out of the tent, my weary eyes searching through every child in the pack, till I met Ella among the other children. I rushed her, and my desperate arms embraced her in a hug. I thought something must have happened to her.My body quivered as tears slid down the corners of my eyes.“Mummy, are you oka

    Lucian’s POVShock registered on their faces as I stared at the three of them. They tucked their tails beneath their legs then lowered their heads, I was way too tender and patient and I bet this would tell them.When they finally reconsidered their decision, I pulled my daggers out and I let them leave and I made sure they were out of sight before I made another move.Matters like this would be avoided if new rogues would understand not everyone under the moon was after them, I ignited the engines and I drove off.Hours later I approached Pike’s territory, his wolves who stood guarding the accessible borders of the pack stood their ground, they brought out their swords and daggers at the sight of the mask seated on my face.“I am here to see pike? Your leader.” I said, with my hands up in the air, they drew the dagger closer to my neck. These people were the same people who followed me on the war with Jullian, but even after we were acquainted, they still perceived my presence as a c

    Lucian’s POV The lady glanced at me with a questioning look, she tried to reach out to me but I moved away, clutching the strap of my bag, I walked away from the town, it was obvious there was a party being held in the pack house.I could not remember any need for a pack to celebrate at the time of the year, and it wasn’t even winter yet, so why would Aex host a party inside the pack house? Was he trying to avoid the consequences of his actions? It made no sense, but then again things stopped making sense the moment Alex had a say in the pack, though I came to get something’s for Selene, it would cause no harm if I checked out the pack house myself, besides the farm was just beside it.I made sure my scarf was tied firmly around my face to avoid being noticed and I walked over to the pack house where I found a new set of people at the foot of the pack, they had their bowls in their hands as they sat. Fear gripped me.This was preposterous, I took a glance at the pack house which gl

    Lucian’s POV Now I was on the road my mind was in a haze, everything in my body fumed up, she shouldn’t have come out she should have remained in her hut, she wanted to prey on my self control I could tell.Not only has she tried to sabotage my journey she also wanted to blame me for leaving when she was the one who left first.It’s just the last time. After this everything would go back to how it was supposed to be. I would take back the pack, I would give these people a home and I would provide security as promised, whatever my end was after that is uncertain.I refused to let her get on my nerves or divert my attention to something so superficial. My drive through the borders of the pack and into the thick forest wasn’t far from what Selene predicted, I got attacked by rogues and traps it was worse than expected, but somehow I managed to get to eclipse pack in about two days of being active on the road, I had for crash out moments but I got there.The next step is to sneak into t

    Lucian’s POV It was very early in the morning when I decided to leave for the pack for my last heist. If I had to get everything on the list and also take time to see the situation of the pack I needed to go earlier, I took my trusted dagger and I tucked it in my boots, one around a sheath on my waist.I was set to go, I took a bottle of herb I had squeezed before going to bed earlier, I had made more research on numbing medications for the pain and also slow the process of the contamination, I could already feel my body feeling much better compared to how I felt earlier .It was still dark outside and the pack was quiet. I don’t know how long it was going to take on the road and I might have another breakdown. So I prepared some lettuce leaves and some carrot sticks for Ella’s bunny, and I walked over to Selene’s quarters, I dropped it at the door so it was the first thing she saw when she woke up. I was aware of her aim to make this mission impossible, but it had to be done, one w

    Lucian’s POV I fought with the pack guards at the borders. Not only did they lose my scarf, they had taken the bracelet I bought alongside a picture, I found out right after the trance, I was paranoid and I needed to take back everything they took which led to a fight and the bruise she desperately wanted to heal.But I could not let it happen, the poison had surpassed my arms and I could feel it around my chest. If she touched it, she would notice my blood stream was infected but she was too stubborn and wouldn’t listen.I had subconsciously entered the healers ward at the sight of her, I wanted to give her the bracelet I bought, but seeing her and remembering the outcome of my hallucinations, I had a change of heart, I was still hurt by it, I knew it wasn’t real but somehow it made my heart weigh with so much pain.I was way past it already, I knew she wouldn’t go back to Alex. I was certain but somehow the betrayal stuck with me. It taunted me so much and it messed with my mind,

  • The Disabled Luna’s Vengeance    Chapter 129

    Selene’s POV It was very early in the morning and I barely had any sleep last night, first was from the continuous foot thumping in the room, Ella’s bunnies needed to find some other place to sleep. And secondly because Lucian left the pack all night and he hadn’t come back yet, I feared he had gone to eclipse pack without my notice, and I was truly worried, the least he could do was tell me about it. It wasn’t much of a request but if he kept doing things on his own without telling me, how was I supposed to rule the pack? It made no sense? Everything about him made no sense to me at all. I walked into the pack, the fertilizers that were ruined had been gathered, they were in no shape for farming but I wasn’t prepared to let my effort go to waste, on this day I wanted to do something new. I made a random wolf blow the horn to gather everyone in the pack at the open square, and when they finally did, I proceeded to share my messages. “Our goal hasn’t ended yet, I know yesterday I

    Lucian’s POVI didn’t entirely find that aspect of her life interesting.“Did Jullian occasionally visit you?” There was a lump in my throat as I spoke. What guarantee do I have that Selene wouldn’t desire a male counterpart while in this circle.“Yes he did, but we were on a routine, each wife had the day they stayed with him, and if it happens that we desire strongly to be with him we might trade places and favors.” I cleared my throat and I moved on the chair, my eyes barged hurriedly. That was something I couldn’t satisfy, what if she decides to have someone in the pack due to the heat of pregnancy, winter is coming either way, she would need someone to warm her human side.“Chief, you look flushed, are you okay?” “Yes, I am thankful, you can leave now.” She bowed before she left, and as I watched into the distance I thought about everything, the movement of the child as it ages, the emotional turmoil, I was close to my mother as a child, but during the birth of Alex, I was fa

    Lucian’s POVEvery joint felt the weight of the energy surge, it weakened every single limb in my body, and I had just recovered from the effect when Selene walked into the room.Her presence only made it worse. The most aggregating part of it was that she didn’t know, she wasn’t aware that her presence only made me wild, she couldn’t tell how hard it was to keep Escarno from marking her.I took the list she dropped on my desk and I smirked at the list, it was obvious she did all this just to make me stay, she wanted to find a reason to tag me for everything, I smirked again as I read through everything.This must be some other stage of degeneration, I could feel how untamed my desires were becoming. I needed to leave the pack if I truly wanted to secure the third stone, I needed to leave.But then I stared at the sheet of paper on the table. If I leave she won’t be able to make more crop as she desires. And I stood a chance of her being right, I need to do something.From the looks o

    Selene’s POV I slept, for a while but half heartedly this time, after the last encounter with Lucian, I couldn’t get myself to stop thinking about what he said. And the little feeling in my heart that still remained warm.I couldn’t comprehend why, but somehow I chose to repel whatever it was that I felt, I only needed his permission to build a greenhouse, and he had done enough, I could do the rest myself, with time.We might not be able to grow the crops as fast as we wanted to, but I could still grow them. Within a month, I didn’t want to owe him any more favors than I already did, I didn’t want to feel obligated to him or attached.So as I stood up from my bed, I reached out for a sheet of paper at the corner of the bed, he stated that he needed the list for the fertilizers, I planned on giving it to him, but mostly in a manner he had no option than to reject it.I was planning on making it hard to achieve, so I stated some plan based fertilizers which I had back in eclipse pack,
