"She is finally regained consciousness!!"
Fredrick was out of breath as he had run all the way here when he heard the news, nearly falling as he approached the door.
Amelia took it out on him when he punished James out of fury and reverse aggression, and she stopped talking to him in the same way that his wolf had stopped talking to him too. "You did it, you killed her!" was the only thing he hears every minute.
Amelia had said that she couldn't stand being in the same room with someone who was "ruthless and irresponsible," and that was why he had taken it upon himself to always be there when Amelia wasn't. His only hope is that she will forgive him for being so thoughtless one day.
As soon as he noticed she was awake, Zane dashed out the door. He turned into his big black wolf in an instant, worried less about who could see him, and hurried to the physician's house. He had no clue Alpha Luke and Rob
As soon as his jaws expanded and it became impossible to control his wolf any longer, he sunk his teeth into the most sensitive section of her neck, doing something irreversible... Marking her.As soon as the deed was done, he was overcome with different emotions, ranging from depression to self-pity, helplessness, and, finally, wrath; he knew he had successfully marked her since every emotion he was experiencing was hers. Several images of suffering rushed through his mind, and he grasped the seriousness of his actions. By allowing her to see all of this while she was sleeping, he shattered her not only physically and emotionally, but also cognitively. Long-term forgiveness is out of the question because no one, not even the moon goddess herself, can ever pardon such a crime.He was about to rip his fangs out of her neck when he heard someone scream. He initially thought he was hearing it from her mind, and it took him a long time to realiz
Shirley was taken aback; she couldn't believe what she was hearing; she had thought she was the only one who had gone through such agony at such a young age. Shifting at that age was a horrible ordeal that no child should have to endure. She'd heard the stories, but she thought they were made up to make his cruelty appear more real and authentic.She'd had no idea he'd been through so much, and they had something in common... being in pain at such a young age."He went through a lot like you did, and his condition was practically comparable to yours," explained the moon goddess. "I made you go through the same ordeal because I wanted you to be ready for anything. It is stated that what does not break you makes you stronger, and I wanted you both to be strong, but it looks that you both interpreted it incorrectly, and it broke you both."She let out a longing sigh.
Shirley ran out of the bedroom screaming her lungs out, she didn't bother to glance in the way of the now lifeless Zane, she was furious and right now, she needed to vent out her anger be it on a person, or an object if not she is going to explode, different emotions were overwhelming her, she was in need of a release. She needed to destroy something ASAP, she doesn't care who or what would be the object of that damage but she was sure as hell going to destroy things. She was like a woman in heat.The wailings and screams of Shirley made Zane regain consciousness a few minutes later, he quickly went in search of her not minding the excruciating pain in his head. He ignored the drops of blood on his forehead, all he wanted at the moment was to find her and calm her, all the screaming was bad for her health.He found her in the living room...Everything was turned upside down, she had managed to tear his cushions into pieces all his glasses from his
Her heart felt like it would stop any moment from now, if the pain doesn't stop soon, she would surely go insane. She clutched her hands together balling them in a fist."Arrrrrgggghhhhh!" she screamed in pure agony, the pain was just too much."Are you okay Luna?" James asked, not knowing what to do to help. She used her hand to clutch her chest, her breathing became hoarse and ragged."My chest!" was the only thing she could say before she released an ear-splitting scream.James became scared as he stared at her pale and tired figure,
Her heart felt like it would stop any moment from now, if the pain doesn't stop soon, she would surely go insane. She clutched her hands together balling them in a fist."Arrrrrgggghhhhh!" she screamed in pure agony, the pain was just too much.
"Zane might be ruthless but he is so fragile, mere words or actions can break him, his ruthlessness is just a facade so that people won't get to see the broken boy inside," the moon goddess's voice rang in her ears."I know this because you are all my children, so I know each one of you and I know you will not forgive him easily for what he did but remember this child..." she paused a little."...If you take too long to forgive him, you would have yourself to blame""Besides, you only saw his ruthless side for a day, all the while that you have been with me has made him more fragile, you will understand what I mean when you get back"***Shirley was shocked to notice she was the only one Zane was calling for even when he was slowly losing consciousness. She was immobile until Amelia nudged her forward.She snapped her head to his face and noticed how pale he lo
"Nooo," she screamed.One of the moon goddess's words replayed in her head."I do not say you should accept him immediately, but if you draw out time just to forgive him, he would fall back into depression, he would blame himself and start to give up on life gradually and you know exactly what that means" the moon goddess had said"There is no point or joy in watching your mate fall into depression, but if you must pay him back for everything he did to you, then make him beg for your love, but make sure he knows he has been forgiven already," she had saidShirley knew she was right; there was nothing she would gain from purposely allowing Zane to wallow in guilt when she knew that he was acting the only way he how to, though it was brutal it wasn't entirely his fault,his father shaped him t
"Al..ph..a, I..I.." he stammered Zane slowly got off the bed and move towards James, he stretches his hand to him in form of a handshake "Let us go back to the way we are when we were still little, please" he still held his hand out Something similar to happiness flashed through James' eyes he ignored the outstretched hand and in a swift second, he pulled Zane into a bone-crushing hug "I am also sorry I neglected you when you were at your worse and needed my friendship the most, I was just scared of who we're becoming," James said with pain in his voice. He was finally getting back his childhood friend after what seems like forever. He always wished and hoped for a day like this daily and he was glad it came to pass. It couldn't have been possible if not for the Luna. He broke the hug and turn to Shirley "Thank you Luna" he
"Are you sure it's still going to fit okay? I seem to have added much in the past few days," Shirley said pulling her button lips between her teeth as as she fiddled nervously with the fabric of her dress."Trust me, it would and you are going to look gorgeous in it," Amelia said smiling with reassurance as she gave her Shirley's dress one look. "Now hurry up, you wouldn't want to be late to your own house opening and the homecoming party of your mate would you?"Shirley's lips twitched as she exhaled slowly, mentally psyching herself up to step out in the public as Luna after several years of staying hidden.'We have got this Shirl,' Shirley's wolf said."Okay," Shirley replied, her eyes sparkling with gratitude as she started putting on her dress. "I feel like a princess," Shirley giggled."You should be talking about looking like a queen now. Leave the title of princess for your son's mate, Constance. You look like a sexy and elega
"Hey," Shirley said with a smile the moment she opened her eyes."Good morning to you too beautiful," Zane replied.As usual, he woke up before her. These past few days were the best she had had so far. They were days they spent to process everything that has happened so far. She woke up every morning to see Zane already awake and staring at her lovingly. She had barely gone out since he returned, just like all those years ago when he got captured, only that this time, she spent her days laughing with him by her side."Tell me again, how did you feel when you found out that you were pregnant with our son?" Zane asked twirling her hair in his hand."That again? I have told you that story several times already, aren't you tired of hearing it? Ask me something else," Shirley replied with a smile."No, I want to hear it again. I want you to tell it to me every day, I can never get tired of it,""It's old news already. What I can't get over

"We need to get out of here and look for Zane," Shirley stated and all the wolves nodded and yipped in agreement."So...any plan? Or are we all going to go look for him?" A wolf said."The plan..... half of us will go in search of him while the rest will stay and watch our back," Shirley replied and immediately they divided themselves into two groups. The plan was to sneak out and look for Zane and Robert and release them before anyone sees them, but it was too big a risk and she wasn't sure how well it would work out when they do not know what they are up against.If Davina killed fifty of them, just how many more are left? She felt scared but she refused to voice out her fears so that the rest would not be discouraged.As they marched out of their cell, her wolf reminded her that she was there with her and there was nothing to be afraid of and that made her bold. She remembered that her wolf is vicious in her own way and she was eager to take down every

Shirley rushed to her son and collected the chains from his hands. She wasn't comfortable in watching her son kill someone before her eyes, if she had her way, she wouldn't want him to kill anyone at all. "I will handle this myself," she said to him, when she saw him hesitate."What the hell are you doing?" Davina gasped, opening her mouth so that she would be able to breathe."What the hell does it look like?" Shirley sneered tightening her hold on the chains. "I am killing you of course,""How...how...how could you? You..you were the...one preaching... about fair and square, so... how could you?" Davina said."Fair and square? I don't know what that fago? Were you been fair when you kidnapped us from our own homes? Were you been fair when you forced my young son watch something so obscene? Answer me! Were you been fair?" Shirley screamed, choking her with the chain. "If you can't answer that, then you have no business speaking about fairness."Da

So this is how you pay me for my generosity and hospitality? I should have known better. Wolves are same with fox and being kind to them is nothing but a waste of one's time, "Davina said.Shirley said. "Did I hear you say generosity and hospitality? Do you even know the meaning of those?" Shirley asked.You will see. Since you are not satisfied with what you are given, I will make it a point of duty that you are no longer given any. "You just lost all your privileges. That is your punishment for disrespecting me," Davina said, kneeling to her level to shove her face away.Shirley laughed and actually barked in her face, which caught her off guard. Then she said, "What privileges are you talking about?
A bang on the door jolted them all from their thoughts and they looked to see a hand push in several trays of food through the section of the door. It didn't take long before the smell of warm food hit their nostrils.Hunter's mouth felt dry and he looked at his mom to confirm if they were going to eat the food or not, and when she nodded, he undid his cuffs and stood up wearily from the floor to go bring the food closer. His knees groaned in protest but he made his way to the latch several times and retrieved the food trays and water."How are you able to get out of this sliver cuff? Didn't it burn you?" Shirley asked when she saw Hunter without his cuffs.Hunter shrugged and said, "I stared at it intently and asked it to open and it did. But I tried opening everyone else's own but it didn't work.""It's okay, it is nothing to be sad about," Shirley replied when she saw his face fall.When he was done bringing the food closer, all except Shirley w
