Selene’s POV

Lucian moved over to the corpse, and he said prayer to the goddess to grant her soul a safe journey to the realm of the goddess, after he was done, he moved away, and the undertakers took the boat on their shoulders.

The rest of the pack members carried her to the waterside, where we were to burn her body.

I could not move my legs; it was a thing of pain and denial; I could not hold it anymore. As warm tears strolled down my eyes, I felt a hand on my shoulder. I turned, and I saw Joan beside me.

I hugged her, she wrapped her hands around me, she exhaled with full force behind me, “Words can’t explain how much I want to thank you, Selene; I would have been carried on that boat if you hadn’t healed me. Thank you,” she cried on my shoulders.

We stood there for a while till we pulled ourselves away from each other's embrace.

Her eyes were red from crying, and the scar left on her neck as a result of Kyle's betrayals was still present and barely healed; she had a bandage over

    Selene’s POV“Please”“Everyone in the pack thinks I would be the one to save them, and I would give them a safe life, far from critics of other packs, a life away from their past. But I can't, at least not without the moonstone.”I was instantly hooked. “What do you mean, you already saved them; they do not need saving?”“Winter is coming; do you know that? The kids will die, and only the adults with wolves will survive. I need more store spaces and more farming lands to be able to cultivate more crops and more supplies to feed everybody during the winter and build an aspiring nation. A pack is formed from generations of leaders, most times a family, but we are rogues. I would be going out to bring in more rogues who can’t survive in the winter, which means the pack would be crowded.”“So the moonstone would help? Is it like a currency?” I asked, and it still made no sense.“No, it’s the only thing that can take me back to the pack; I can’t have a say in my pack anymore because litera

    Lucian’s POVI had done everything to keep her away from it, to shield her from the sickening reality of things, but it all happened so fast I could not control it.“You should come back to the pack; it’s not safe to be out here alone,” I said to her, then lent her my hands so she could use them as support as she attempted to stand up.After telling her how mentally deranged her ex-husband was, I could see the disgust on her face. It was unbelievable, I know, but it was true she would have to come to terms with seeing him being destroyed. It was already mind-blowing that a man like my brother dared to procreate.No, he had plagued Ella’s life with his genes; I would not let that.As Selene and I walked back to the pack in silence, I thought about what Emily had said. Selene was pregnant with Alexander's child, and she didn’t even know. How would I tell her now? She would be devastated to hear it. But sooner or later, when she had started seeing signs, I would have to break the news to

    Selene’s povAs I blinked my eyes open, the crease of my window let in a few rays of sunlight, and almost without warning, they made me feel even colder inside. It was today. It was the first real day, the first of many without her. It was pretty new to me, and I could only wonder how I would live the day and other days without her. Just that notion made the muscles in my throat constrict painfully, and my lungs felt like I had iron balls lodging in my chest. My chest heaves up and down. But no, I shouldn’t have to do this. Not today. Not when I know she wouldn't want me to do it. "Emily…" That was indeed the sweetest word for me now, for in my heart, I knew it was a promise. Every woman I’ve ever met doesn’t compare to Emily .I could hear her say in my mind, "Selene, get up! Live yourself a little bit. Just because I'm not there means you can't be happy." And we all know one thing I know for certain is that Emily wants to see me smile as much as she would. So all this time I staye

    Selene's POVMy hands were busy with the tiny leaves in my tray as I gave it my undivided attention while separating the dried leaves from the fresh leaves . I was practicing an herb seen in a book. It would be used to stop diarrhea, which was good for a startup. I had sorted the leaves out myself, and I had found them at the borders of the pack just as Emily had written in her handbook."Hey,” Joans tender voice interrupted my thoughtWhat the hell is she doing here? "Hello, Joan, good day; how are you doing?" I didn't raise my head up to see her; I could only acknowledge that she was in the room with me. I wondered if she came to apologize for how she had treated me; just like those ladies had done earlier today, I didn’t need it. She took a seat beside me with a tray on her thighs, then she took a portion of the leaves.“You want to try the herbs for diarrhea; that's good for a start.”“Yes, how did you know?”She smiled softly at me, “Emily and I weren’t Exactly friends, but

    Selene’s POV It was sad to say I didn’t know what it smelt like, it smelt like a lot of things, it was toxic yet cool and metallic, I tried to decipher what exactly what smelt like that, I knew it wasn’t his scent, and even if it was, it was a foreign scent, Lucian smelt like cocoa butter, and something harsher like wild vine, but now it was totally different.An entirely new scent that made my skin prickle. It left me in a state of confusion, but I could not ask why he smelt so funny.Or maybe it was my nose playing games on me. Ever since I woke up, I have had various abilities, I could heal now without calling out to my wolf, and I could perceive scent so vividly, more than anyone I know, I knew the limit of wolves, because I was one, so when I woke with an extreme sense of smell, I could only keep it to myself till I finally figure out why I had the ability.I wasn’t about to have myself being stigmatised by everybody.“So I see that you have started the renovation of my previous

    Lucian’s POV I felt like I had jumped into a furnace, My skin itches badly and in my mind it felt like a petting zoo for wild animals. For every passing second, I felt the tension increase, words took too long to filter through my mind, and I found myself blinking hard every now and then, just to get a better vision. My entire body was covered in perspiration even while under the care of natural cool air, I still felt hot, and mostly uncomfortable.‘Go for a run’ said EscarnoI ignored him, ‘pull your clothes, run, take a bath, it’s too hot outside,’“Lucian, we can’t go to the pack now, consider it, I know the plan was to be there in three days but it’s risky, come to think of it, the new Luna would be on seat in two days, we can’t risk it” said Joan, I sent spies to the pack, and it turned out Alexander was having some coronation party in two days which was silly, because I planned on raiding in two day.‘We can’t stop, Lucian, don’t mind what’s she’s saying it’s all bluff, Alex

    Selene’s POV “Lucian!” I called out, but he didn’t say anything.I knew he was inside, I heard his voice as I was approaching his chambers, I parted the curtains of the room, he didn’t respond which was odd I was sure I spoke loud enough.My eyes scanned the rooms to see if he was sleeping or maybe had something blocking his ears but he wasn’t there at all.“Strange” I said out loud.It made no sense, or maybe it was just the hyper hearing senses that I had recently developed.I must be hearing things, because I really thought he was here. I wanted to propose my idea of going again to the pack, I could not let it slide, not at all. I needed to go whether he liked it or not. She just had to allow me to follow him.I stood up, totally restless, maybe he went out, and I needed to go find him. I walked out of his room, then I saw Joan approaching me, waving at her and smiling sweetly at me.“Have you seen Lucian, I thought he was in his room, but he isn’t, I want to tell him something” I

    Selene’s POV While I waited for someone to appear, I sensed a fleet of wolves coming towards me, but I didn't feel a bond between any of them, they were the board members of the pack, and people I talk with everyday, they had just finished training with Lucian and their plan just had been sorted out. I saw Joan following them, my hopes fell and I placed my hands on my chest to stop the excessive palpitation. I had never felt the mate bond, after so many years I never thought I would have a mate. I never searched for my mate after marriage because it was simply useless to me, I was married, and had a child, so it made no sense. “Selene?, are you okay?, something is burning inside” Joan snapped her fingers at me, pulling me out of the dilemma I had found myself. “Selene, you placed something on fire,” Joan said again as she rushed into the healer's ward then brought the pot of herbs down. The feeling was still stuck in my heart, I hadn't gotten over the sensation. I went back i

    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,
