~Xavier~When I’d gotten the news of what happened the night that my Luna was supposed to give a speech to the members of the Pack, my blood had boiled so badly, so much that I felt murderous.I had been so worked up about the fact that they could talk down on her in that manner, without fearing that I could tear their hearts out whenever I heard of it. Or had they thought that I would never get a whiff of whatever happened in my absence?So I did the only thing that I could do, which I thought would also make me feel better. I rounded up the people that I could get who were confirmed to be part of the people who had the guts to insult and throw things at my Luna, and I tied them up. Then I started to torture them in every way possible.But she had stopped me. I don’t get how she would still feel pity for the people who almost bruised her skin because of something so meaningless. Then I’d gotten a message from her personal maid that she had decided to have breakfast at the dining hall
~Kira~My hands rubbed against his cock, which was already hardened as I looked up at him. I loved the way he reacted to my touch. The way he sucked in his breath whenever my hands moved against him, and the way his eyes closed momentarily before gazing at me.It made me feel some kind of way; like I have some kind of power over him. He wasn’t even trying to hide the way he felt with every touch of mine. It was arousing, watching him behave like that.“Kira…” he groaned as my fingers connected with the waistband of his trousers. He stopped my movement by holding onto my wrists. I looked at him in surprise, as I didn’t expect him to stop me at all.“Is there a problem?” I asked.He exhaled deeply and slowly shook his head. “No, there’s no problem. But I want the sex between us to be mutual. You can’t suddenly decide to have sex with me just because you think that Lola is my mistress.”I frowned. “I thought you wanted me. why are you pushing me away then?”His reaction was something th
~Kira~His lips crashed against mine the instant the words left my mouth. His kisses were hot, filled with unmistakable desires and lust, and urgent. There was nothing gentle about it, just like someone who had been denied something for too long and wanted to make do with the permission once he got it before the owner retracted it.I threw my hands around his neck and pulled him even closer as he assaulted my lips, our tongues dancing in unison as I opened my mouth to grant him more access. A low growl escaped his lips as I grabbed a huge chunk of his hair and pulled a little.“What do you want me to do?” I asked immediately he released me long enough to tear out the strings that he had been playing with on my bust.“All I want you to do is…” he nuzzled my neck and bit it gently, his fangs gently grazing me. “Relax and do nothing”I was so sure that there would be a large hickey visible to everyone after my tryst with Xavier.So, relax and do nothing?One would think that I would be d
~Kira~I couldn’t control the moans coming from me anymore. I was dripping and I wanted him inside of me. I wanted to feel him, and I was ready for him to fill me.Nothing had prepared me for this mind-blowing exploration that I was experiencing right now. I couldn't think. I couldn't speak. All I wanted to do was to feel.I grabbed his hair tight as his lips tightened on my clit and he suckled on it hard. He flicked his tongue over it, applying pressure as he pressed his tongue onto it. "Mmm" I groaned, pulling him more into my legs. At a point, I unconsciously pressed my legs together against him, wanting as much as he could give.He pried my legs apart again, a smug smile on his face. " Easy there love, you don't want to strangle the alpha now, do you?"I bit my bottom lip, lustfully gazing at him. I didn't want him to talk much. If he wanted to talk, he could do that in between his legs and I wouldn't mind.He cupped me, rubbing around my lips. He slipped in. Then slipped out. T
~Kira~When I woke up after a long nap, I realized that it was past noon. The ache in between my legs, and the heavy arm draped around me reminded me of the intense lovemaking that I had with Xavier moments before I dozed off.I turned my head to look at him, a small smile curving up my lips as I appraised his features. His eyes were closed, and he looked so peaceful sleeping. His lashes were so long and full that I thought how unfair it was that a man would have such beautiful lashes while I was here applying mascara to mine every single day to make it look thicker and longer. I reached out and touched his lips, tracing my finger lightly down his lower lips and getting the urge to kiss them.“One more touch and I’m going to turn you over and fuck the life out of you,” he said with his eyes still closed.I gasped and tried to back down but he held me in place, my naked body rubbing over his own. “Where do you think you’re going?” he asked, his voice a little raspy.I smiled as he pul
~Kira~I whipped my head around to see Lola standing at the entrance of the kitchen. She had a glass of wine in her hand and her hair was flawless, as usual. She stood there like a contestant in a pageantry waiting to be called, before sauntering into the kitchen.Alianna quickly busied herself with baking the snacks and doing other things, while I sat back down on my chair because I knew that it was going to be a long talk between us.Was she even a monitoring spirit? How had she known where to find me this hot afternoon? Besides, I thought that she would be in the ICU after that Oscar-worthy stunt that she pulled at the dining. I never knew that she would still be able to walk. I really thought that she suddenly got crippled.“I really do not have the time to trade words with you, Lola. Maybe go back to your oracle mother and taunt her if you’re looking for someone to bully. I’m sure that she’d be more than happy to assist you” I said, opening my cup of yogurt to take a spoonful aga
~Kira~“You’d better tell him before someone else beats you to it” I kept on battling within myself as Lola’s threatening words sank into my heart. Even as I laid down to sleep that night, I still couldn’t get it off my mind. Every single look that Xavier gave me looked like he already knew and was waiting for me to come clean to him.Lola’s mother had been the one to prepare me for the bonding ceremony, so she might have probably noticed that something was off about me. Did she perhaps hear my baby’s heartbeat? Did she tell Lola everything that she noticed about me? Is that why Lola is insistent that I was hiding something from the alpha?Because of the heaviness in my mind, when Xavier had attempted to make love to me again that night. I curved him and told him that I was experiencing a little headache and needed to get some rest. I was allowing that girl to get into my head and I didn’t really like the outcome.I turned and looked at Xavier who was sleeping peacefully beside me. I
~Kira~Left with nothing to do aside from moping around, I decided to go and visit the Pack doctor in her office. I’d been wanting to do that ever since the time she lied to the alpha to protect me. With Alianna too busy to chat with me and the alpha busy with the warrior selection process, I wore a little dress and stepped out of my room to outside.The sun felt good on my skin, and it made me feel even better than when I was in the room. The walk to the Pack hospital wasn’t too far away and in a short while, I was in the building. The receptionist greeted me when I came in, bowing slightly. I asked to see the doctor in charge and was told to wait for a while because she currently had a patient that she was attending to.Soon enough, the doctor stepped out. She looked shocked to see me but schooled her expression immediately. She curtsied and looked up at me with a smile. “To what do I owe the pleasure of this visit, Luna?”“I came to see you, Doctor,” I replied.She nodded. “Let’s
~Kira~It has been one hell of a week. I knew it wasn't going to be roses and unicorns. I knew that once I stepped foot into Crescent Pack, they would want to have my head. If it wasn't for Alpha Jake who was beside me, and all the warriors that he took from Half Moon Pack, then I would have been dead by now. It took some time to quiet everything down. They didn't trust me until I recounted the story that the witch told me and where my heritage came from. I wanted nothing more than for everyone to live in peace. I proposed a merger with Half Moon Pack which at first they all refused since both Packs had long been sworn enemies but since the Pack had no alpha, and Jayden was the one who was running everything, he decided for the elders of the council to conclude on what they wanted.Both Pack elders went into a meeting. The elders from Half Moon Pack and the elders from Crescent Pack all came together. It took a lot of convincing for them to finally agree to a merger. Jayden was sh
~Kira~"Don't worry my love, you don't have to be nervous about it. She isn't harmful, even though she may appear intimidating.” Jake said, rubbing my shoulders in reassurance. I gulped down my nervousness especially when the witch walked in.I was expecting to see a grouchy old lady, but she was quite young. I removed the hood from my head. I had insisted on it so that no one would recognize us. I am glad that Beta Aiden decided to look after Sawyer.She sat down in front of us. Her eyes widened when she made eye contact with me."I can say that I am quite surprised to see you, Alpha Jake. The last time you were here was to make an inquiry about how your late Luna couldn't give birth to your child. Now you are here with a much different wolf. A very powerful one at that. I never thought that you were still alive. I thought you had died." My hold on Jake tightened. She didn't mean it in a scary way but I still felt shivers run down my spine."What do you mean by that? Do you know w
~Kira~To say that I was surprised was an understatement. I always knew that Ella was all kinds of evil, but I never knew that she would go to the extent of trying to lace my drink with poison.I don't know how she drank the poison, but I am grateful to whoever swapped the drink. I have had a taste of what consuming wolfsbane felt like and it wasn't a good feeling. I was still astonished at how I survived that torture. Maybe because I wasn't forced to drink it but Ella wanted to kill me on the spot. She wanted to give me a humiliating death just the way she gave to that Councilman.It has been days since her funeral and the execution of the bodyguard who was her accomplice. I don't even know the man and yet he had so much grudge against me.Things were beginning to quiet down in the Pack. Even though people still talked about Ella's sudden death, all these things that had been going on made me realize something and I didn't want to waste any more time. I decided to accept Jake back
~Jake~When I heard the loud thud and saw Ella passed out on the floor, I thought it was one of her little pranks for seeking attention. I was going to commend her for staying drama-free at this party, but I guess I was too quick to speak.When I noticed that it wasn't a prank, and something was really wrong with her, I rushed towards her but Aiden was already there. With the help of some guests, Ella was moved into her room where the Pack doctor examined her.I thought that maybe she was sick or wasn't feeling well, but when he told me that Ella had consumed a large amount of wolfsbane, I was shocked.wolfsbane was banned from the Pack ages ago, so where the hell did that come from? And of all places, it had to be the party that I was throwing for Kira. Was someone trying to sabotage me purposely?He said there was no way to save her and that the poison was already spreading to her heart. I watched as Ella convulsed to death, the look of anguish on her face. I knew that she didn't w
~Ella~This party was a colossal waste of time. The bitch has rarely stood up from her seat. She was supposed to be up and about so that she would take the poisoned drink that I'd arranged, from the server close to her.I couldn't take my eyes off her because I didn't want to miss the death show that was about to happen. All I needed her to do was take that glass of wine.She mingled with just a few people, but everyone wanted to talk to her. They were treating her as if she was some sort of celebrity and I know that she was loving the attention even though she pretended not to do so.What a sneaky little snake. Girls like Kira were so easy to predict. I knew that she had sex with Alpha Jake. Even though she pretended to hate him, she wouldn't waste any time spreading her legs for that jerk.I couldn't wait for the highlight of this party. Kira would soon be taken out as a corpse. In her next miserable life, she would wish that she had never met Alpha Jake or been his mate. Kira did
~Kira~I never thought that I would ever have sex with Alpha Jake again but I can't say that I regretted it. There was this burning desire in me that I have been pushing away ever since I came back to Half Moon Pack, but yesterday I decided to give in to it and I can say that it was one of the best nights of my life.I knew that I had been lying to myself all this while, that somewhere within me I still had feelings for him.Well, since the moon goddess loves to play with me a lot, I decided that I have had enough of pushing Alpha Jake away. I was going to embrace my feelings for him.I accepted the idea of having a party for me and Sawyer. I just didn't expect a lot of people to turn up. I was hoping that not a lot of people would show up for the party but it seems as if everyone wanted to get a glimpse of Luna Kira, Alpha Jake's former mate whom he rejected.I know they were all waiting for some kind of drama. Maybe they were hoping for Alpha Jake to call all this a prank.I could
~Ella~When I remembered the conversation I overheard, I felt like killing Kira and melting her body in acid. She was truly a snake. From afar, you would think she was so docile but she was nothing but a serpent, and she has succeeded in slithering her way into my husband's life.All he ever talks about now is Kira this, and Kira that. It was really starting to get irritating hearing that name constantly.I knew that killing Kira would not be easy but I wanted to give her a more painful and humiliating death than Councilman Martinez. Only a few wolves knew how he died. Jake didn't give full disclosure to people who were curious about his death and what was the cause of it, but with Kira, I would make sure that everyone would see her.When I found out that Jake was having a party in honor of her return, I felt as if a thousand needles were being pricked into my heart and skin. He kept on giving me excuses whenever I asked for something, but with Kira, he was ready to move mountains. An
~Jake~Something doesn't feel right. No matter how much I tried to ignore it, I knew that Councilman Martinez's death wasn't suicide. That guard knows something. He was protecting someone. He wouldn't give up who the criminal was.Whoever killed him took their precious time killing him. The poison ivy was just to make him go through pain. The itching and swelling were nasty to even look at.I wonder what his thoughts were as he died. What was the motive of the killer? I know that Councilman Martinez was a very dirty man. He wasn't straightforward. His death wasn't a surprise to me nor am I going to mourn for him, that was for his wife and son who had also suddenly gone missing. I decided to take a break from catching the mysterious killer and focus on Kira who has been acting strange ever since I came back with Sawyer. She didn't give me her usual gentle smile, instead, she snatched Sawyer from me, slamming the door in my face. I stood there in utter shock and when I raised my hand
~Kira~A loud knock interrupted my reading session. I thought it was Alpha Jake or his annoying Beta. I haven't seen him ever since he said he was taking Sawyer for a walk.I wasn't worried though. I knew Jake wouldn't allow anything to happen to our son. I opened the door only to see Ella standing before me.I hardened my look. What the hell did she want now? Hasn't she made my life a living hell enough? I always avoided being in the same room with Ella. I knew that she wanted nothing but trouble and I was not in the mood for her drama. She was a manipulative liar and I didn't want to be caught in her web of lies.I almost closed the door in her face but she put out a hand, pushing it wide open, inviting herself into my room.When she walked past me, I caught a whiff of a very familiar smell. I scrunched up my nose. It wasn't pleasant to the nose. I couldn't really pinpoint what kind of smell it was since it was covered by her usual minty scent, but it was as if she combined her
