Selene’s POV

His 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 POV“You are not going anywhere.” I reached out to her hands again, this time with a stronger grip. She needed to admit it—that she had betrayed me again; she had to cover her tracks by killing those people; she must have had help and she didn’t want to say the name of the person.“Let me go, Lucian!” If we stayed here, we were going to wake the little girl up, and I couldn’t afford to do that; her presence would be an easy escape for Selene to leave, and I couldn’t let that happen. I pulled her away from her hut, then towards mine. I pushed her in, then locked the door behind; now she had no excuse and she couldn't escape me.“How much did she offer you? A position in her pack? Gold and luxury? She promised to give your child more than she is receiving here, right? spill it!l” I asked curiously; all she had to do was admit it, but she wanted to make a fuss about it, I was certain she was the one who did it.“Did you bring me out of the pack to crucify me, Lucian?

It was dnagerous to have a child at the front of the pack but she won’t let her father go and secondly she reminded me off Ella, they were about the same age and they had the same color of eyes.I met Alice who was also preparing her niece for the trip, she looked sane.“How are you doing?” I aske

I didn’t want to let him go now, maybe for today. He was a healer just like me, just different realms. If he doesn’t have a wife then I would like to have dinner with him.I looked around for an object that could represent food but everything around here was sparkling and metallic.I felt uneasy, but the goldsmith walked out with a briefcase.“Cash?” I asked.He nodded, then opened the case, I saw their currencies bein

    Selene’s POV If I had known that humans had a way of communicating, I might have not worried so much about language barriers, but then again, it was a nice experience.I walked out of the ward with him beside me, the moment I stepped out eveyones eyes met mine, they questioned me with their eyes, and trust me I would have been worried if I listened to Joan.If I had worn the cloth she wanted me to wear the napkin that our believer target loved seeing on ladies, if people were looking at me suspiciously I would have suspected it was the reason.Now I was fully clothed and elegant as at that too, and if they wanted some sewing advice I would give them.With my chest held high, I walked out of the ward trying to avoid gaze with anyone who tend to stare for too long and when I was done, I was out and the healer who had offered to take me to the goldsmith opened his car for me.I entered and the interiors were classy, I knew most of our vehicles were fashioned from theirs, and seeing the

If they were planning to put me here for any reason, I will not go down without a fight.My daughter was on the other end of the realm and I only came here to make a harmless exchange. And they were making a fuss out of it. It was so annoying and they were making me sick with all this drama.I imagined Lucian in this situation, what would he has be done if he was here, first he would have not entered the car, and secondly it would be bloody already and the thought of him only made me smile.I wanted to go back home, home to Joan, Ella and Lucian.I wanted to go back to where I wasn’t misunderstood, and maybe didn’t have to explain myself.The man before me walked over to the board which I had already damaged, if he wrote one more word on it, I would be convinced that he was slow.Yes that’s it, he w

Hi I am Selene inventor?If this ain’t the most silly thing I have heard all day.My outburst had the man staring at me like I had done something way out of line which in my defense, I did, I just laughed my ass out because his name sounded ridiculous, just like when Joan had said it for the first time.I still had my back against the bed and laughing had removed the max that filled my nose with the calming air.He took the board and he wrote something on it, *what is funny, did I say anything wrong* I didn’t know but with the look of concern on his eyes, I could tell he wasn’t entirely comfortable with me smiling the way I did.I didn’t know how to tell him, but since we were trying to understand each other in any way possible and he was doing a bad job having to write it on the board, I decided to ease the pain for both of us.I sat upright and I placed the mask on th

Don’t you have insurance to cover it up. 3ahat you said was sipped awkward.*I don’t know what it meant, and I saw that they were looking at me curiously for answers I melted into the car which was still on the road, “yes.” I said then closed my eyes, hoping that my answer somehow aligns with them dropping me off. I just wanted to find a hotel and then listen to the recording of Joan. Maybe I can learn more than just yea and no.The human sat close to me, he held my hands tight and I glanced back to me, I repelled his attention and closeness, I pulled my hands away.He said something which I didn’t understand, I just kept looking, soon the car came to a stop and the
