Selene’s POV

While 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 POV I stood before both corpses, the little girl whom I had assumed to be my daughter earlier, panic resided within me as I tried to make sense of everything that had just happened. I got a little bit closer to Emily and Joan who still held the body in their hands, the pair before me were the same people who were so happy to be part of the pack. The boy who could sing and his sister who could play instruments, they were new Intakes, so full of life, who killed them. ‘There’s a murderer in the pack’ 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, my desperate hands embraced her in a hug. I thought s

    Lucian’s POV Did she feel it? The bond. Was that why she told me thanks? Who was I kidding? I literally just told her she would be protected by guards provided by me, it was only normal that she thanked me afterward. I was reading too much meaning to it, it wasn’t supposed to be so, not at all, Selene didn’t feel the bond, if she did, I would know, the feeling was one-sided, if was reciprocated, I didn’t want to confront her, I would sound like a damn lunatic. But why, why couldn’t she see how much effect she had on me? I could not contain my wolf when I was with her, it was as though her scent was an enchantment, my wolf was obsessed with her, I wanted to be with her. To fondle her hair in my arm and lay on it, I wanted to stare at her when I woke up, to be by her side and not forced to be walls apart from her, it broke every limb in my body, my body sagged to the bed, the feeling was exhausting. Was this some sort of punishment from the moon goddess? Did she make me feel thi

    Lucian’s POV"Nothing,” she lied through her lips, but even a blind man would tell she was lying.She was a bad liar, mostly when caught.“Joan, what did you do?” I asked again, this time more determined.I saw tears forming in her eyes; my heart fell into the pit of my stomach, not knowing what else to say. But I was on the verge of losing it; I wanted to know the atrocity she had committed, yet she wouldn’t say anything.“I told her to stay away from you; that’s it, A day after I came back, I told her to stay away from you and that you belonged to me…”My legs nearly gave out beneath me.“You what!?”“You belong to me, Lucian! I hate seeing that she didn’t have to put any effort into winning you over; I see the way you act around her; it’s not fair I was here first; I was here!”My finger forked my hair, pulling it hard like I wanted to uproot it.But the pain did so little to soothe the aching pain I felt in my heart.“Joan, that’s not how it works…”“I am sorry, Lucian, I am sorry…

    Selene POV Lucian stood before me with a plate of food. His face was less grumpy and soft. I didn't know if he was acting or just being good to me for goodness sake."Here, eat this. You missed your lunch which shouldn't have been." He dropped the plate in front of me, his tone strict."I thought you promised to eat properly from now on? You shouldn't go back on your words, Selene. It is not good for your health to skip meals," he scolded."Did you come here to give me food or argue with me because I feel you came for the latter.""Don't turn this into a fight, Selene. You did wrong by skipping your meal. I have every right to be angry at you for neglecting what's important to you.""I didn't do it on purpose. It's not like I had a choice..." I defended myself but he cut me off with a slam on the table."You had a choice, Selene. We agreed that no matter what, you will stick to your eating routine for efficient training. Don't give me that excuse of not having a choice," he muttered

    SELENE'S POVAs I sat in my quarters, surrounded by the comforting scent of old books and the soft glow of candlelight, I was deeply engrossed in the pages of my worn leather-bound book of herb remedies, the intricate illustrations and detailed descriptions of various plants and their medicinal properties a soothing balm for my frazzled nerves. The sound of a gentle knock at the door broke the spell, and I looked up to see Donald, a member of our pack, standing in the entrance, a small, neatly wrapped package clutched in his hand. He smiled hesitantly, his eyes crinkling at the corners, as he approached me. "Selene, I brought you something," he said, his voice low and rough, as he held out the package. "I made it myself. It's a scent leg cream. I thought you might find it useful."I took the package from him, feeling a surge of gratitude and appreciation for his thoughtful gesture. "Thank you, Donald," I said, my voice sincere. "That's very kind of you." As I unwrapped the package,

    Selena's POV “After the interlude with Lucian I went to tend to the nightingale flowers. As the days went by they required more care which was a little bit tasking thus by the time I got home,I fell head first into the warm,cozy comfiness of my bed. I was having a weird dream where I was able to actually best Lucian in the training field! I really loved the surprised look on his face and was just about to tease him when a loud knock on my door jolted me out of my sweet dream. “Who was that now?" Grumbling,I grudgingly rose up from my bed with my eyes still heavy with sleep. Opening the door I was surprised to discover Lucian at the door. It was still early morning with the sky still dull. Heck,the sun was not even out yet!However,with one look I knew why he was here, dressed up in training gear he was here to call me out for my usual training. “Come in.” I said as I turned back inside but before I could go far he spoke up. “No need for that,I came her so that we can

    Selena's POV Tonight's sky was breathtakingly mesmerizing! The twinkling stars in the clear sky were simply enthralling,coupled with the sharp chirping of crickets and the cool night breeze, it created an ambience that felt relaxing. Clear,cloudless nights like this were a dime in a dozen as most of the time clouds blotted out the sky. They were especially great for telling stories as they made the whole feeling more….immersive.Under one of the many Magnolia trees that littered the pack grounds an old man could be seen narrating a story to a bunch of kids. He was old Alfred one of the oldest members of the pack,once a great warrior an injury he received had made him feeble. Now he was a guardian of the younger generation guiding them forward.Clearing his throat he started his story. “ A very long time ago…”" How long ago pa Alfred?" One of the kids interrupted with a curious expression. " Hoho,long before even I was born, but let's get back to the story . So where

    CHAPTER 115SELENE'S POVAs I stood amidst the bustling activity of our pack's farm, my eyes couldn't help but wander to the figure of Lucian, his muscles rippling beneath his sleeveless shirt as he labored to construct the new greenhouse. The sun beat down upon his back, casting a sheen of sweat across his skin, and I felt a flutter in my chest, a sensation that I promptly suppressed with a surge of irritation. Why must I always find myself drawn to him, even after the argument we had just shared? And to make matters worse, he had teased me mercilessly about my appetite that morning, his eyes glinting with amusement as he watched me devour my meal with gusto. I hated that he could still affect me so, that he could still make me feel like a foolish, lovesick child.Determined to put Lucian from my mind, I threw myself into my work, focusing intently on the task of planting the new crops. The feel of the cool, damp soil between my fingers was calming, and I lost myself in the simp

    Chapter 114Lucian’s POV“Do you want more?” I asked Selene.“And I think you might want to slow down a bit Selene, the food is right here in this tent. No one's coming in to take it away from you.” She was taking in everything at a speed I feared greatly might end up requesting the presence of a healer.She glared at me. “Are you mocking me, Lucian?”I raised my hand in protest. “I wouldn't dare.” I thought to myself, I'm just trying to help, but I guess that's not how she sees it.She nodded, as if content with my reaction. “Better.”“And besides, what are you still doing here in my tent?” she added. “Waiting to see if you'd want more,”She scoffed. “I think I've had enough, thank you.” Her tone was polite, but I could sense the underlying tension.I nodded, feeling a pang of awkwardness rose in my chest. Was this ever going to end?“Alright, I'll leave you to rest then.” I stood up, my eyes meeting hers for a brief moment before I turned to leave.As I stepped out of the tent, I w

    Lucian’s POV I was sharpening my dagger in my tent when I caught sight of Selene walking like she was being chased at the same time sniffing the air like a dog. I didn't know when I stood from my seat and followed her, my lips stretching into a smile of delight when she finally came to a stop in front of the royal kitchen. Cravings. She definitely had a craving. What solidified my resolve was the face she had made asking the chef for meatball subs with mozzarella cheese. I mean who asks for such weird combination and in the morning at that?I didn't want her to see me so I had kept a great distance between us, just watching the scene that was playing out between her and the chef. The chef…by the gods, the look on the chef's face was one I could kill to see again. The man looked like he was watching a patient from an asylum talk to him and couldn't believe his ears. Selene on the other hand didn't seem to care, she went on begging to have a portion even when it wasn't ready. He

    Selene’s POV I woke with a start. My tongue felt sore and my body disoriented as I tried to stand to my feet. Today's supposed to be the first day of building my afrm but it felt like I'd been rammed into by a pack of rogues and left to die on my bed. Jeez, this definitely had to be the cons of being pregnant. But there’s no hella way I was letting that get to me. After I had left Lucian's room, I had drafted out the activities I was going to carry out today, more like pioneer since I was pregnant and couldn't really do much just for the safety of my baby. The first thing on my list was checking out some plots of land available in the pack to be sold, leased or rented. Thankfully, despite the bad blood between Lucian and I, he'd forwarded to me a list of persons with lands ready to be sold or leased so all I had to do was inspect and choose. Afterwards, I'll make payments, put up and ad for workers and if time permitted, start clearing if it was a bushy land. I pushed myself for

    Selene's povMy joy knew no bounds knowing that Lucian was super willing to help me finally achieve my dream of owning a farm. The thought sent a thrill through me, so much so that I didn't know when I chuckled and did a happy dance as I trudged through the hallway. “Look at you, all happy huh?” My wolf teased. “Girl, who wouldn't be?” I retorted, chuckling the more as my mind wandered to my cooked up imagination of me standing in my own huge, long plot of land, sowing seeds into the soil alongside my workers. Surreal was an understatement of how the thought made me feel. But almost immediately, my reverie ended. Somehow my mind defiled my constraints and traveled back to the time when I had asked Lucian what was wrong with him and how he'd coldly told me off. I could feel my heart shattering into multiple pieces again as the scene replayed in my head again. Was I ever going to move past that? The cold looks in his eyes, the venom in his voice, the way he'd quickly rebuffed me,
