Five wolves were waiting there for me when we got to our pack borders, and Erix was not among them. A few lights on posts scattered around close by helped my human eyes to see at night, and I was thankful for that. I hadn't held onto all of my superhuman senses with the current state of my wolf, my night vision being one of them. It was considerably weakened. The Alpha, whom I had met in the woods, was in his wolf form a few feet before me. It seemed the pack members knew him as they bowed their heads in acknowledgment. Jude was the first to speak. "Quintin," he said politely, watching the wolf. His eyes then moved to mine. He looked worried and a little upset. It mirrored the rest of the wolves' faces. This was nothing like the laid-back, teasing Jude from the last night. He was serious and concerned now. I felt bad I had caused all of this. Guilt was eating away at me. They probably looked for me all night if I hadn't shown back up. Quintin shifted up into his human form aga
The week spent in bed was the slowest I had ever endured. It felt like a month rather than a week, and I owe that to all my suffering. No one said it would be quick and easy. "You missed dinner with the pack, so I'll make you something you'd like."I smirked at him, finally able to loosen up a little now. "I'm in the mood to eat seafood right now. Can you make one?" I asked him. I have been craving those foods rather than meat. I know seafood is out of the menu in his pack. I feel like I want to play a bit with him and see if he'll do something. He didn't smile at first until he noticed a smile on my face. "Okay then, we'll go out."I shook my head. It was just a joke. "That's alright; it's already late now. I'll find something in the kitchen to munch on." He was already grabbing his keys off the desk and headed to the door, not even listening to me. Clearly, he had already made up his mind, and there was no change. "I missed it too, and I want to eat something different. I'm h
I wasn't sure how much time had passed when we reached the pack house, but Erix shook me awake. I hadn't even realized that I had fallen asleep. I was more tired than I could ever be. I let out a small moan at my interrupted sleep and felt myself being lifted by a pair of arms. Without thinking, I snuggled into their chest and let the warmth flow. Their arms wrapped around me tighter, making me feel safe and protected. I felt the bed underneath me dip as I was laid down upon it. My soft pillow and mattress were now the source of my comfort, and Erix was no longer holding me. And his absence made me cold. I shivered, pulled the covers up under my chin, and covered my entire body. Without much effort, I slipped into unconsciousness and left my mind to rest while I slept. Like the previous night, the dreams came again, making me cry in pain. Only this time, they were a little different. Instead of rejection, I felt Killian marking Isabelle. It felt like a poison slowly working its way
"Lee!"He looked like he might have been in a slight scuffle before being here. His clothes crumpled and even ripped in a few places. Some cut marks were already healing on his head and arms. I tore from Erix's arms and ran down towards him, but he caught my arms before I got two steps away and held an unsure expression on his face. "So it's true, he does know you?" Erix asked. "He is my cousin," I stated, removing my arms from his grasp, and this time Erix didn't stop me. Lee's arms reached through the bars and hugged me. I didn't fail to notice his look and sighed in relief as he released in my presence. "What are you doing here? Is everyone alright? Are you hurt? Who sent you?" The questions were tumbling from my mouth, one right after the other, before he could answer them. "We've been asking him that for the past hour and he wouldn't answer. He said he only wanted to talk to you. He claimed you knew each other," Wyatt interrupted. I nodded in reply, but I didn't face him.
"Was this what you came for? To convince me to come back? If that was it, Erix is right; I won't be that easy."Lee shook his head. "No, it's not," he said. "When I learned that Killian rejected you and chose Isabelle, I lost my respect for him. Many of us didn't like what he did even though Isabelle was a Luna figure. The day when he announced that he banished you from the pack, I could no longer look at him as an Alpha. I couldn't stand back and watch him happy while you suffered. He's making Moonlight pack look pathetic, and I no longer wish to be part of that pack. I and a few others decided to leave. We were heading west to join the Blue moon pack. And then I decided to stop and see you." "How did you find me?" I asked. "I didn't make it known where I was going.""Brother Zander told me. He said you were safe here, but it might pay for me to stop and see you along the way. He wanted you to know about the pack. I know you're not part of it anymore, but I thought you would like t
I was starting to feel that maybe I only knew the broken Erix instead of the Erix that he really was. I might just be surprised to find out his true side of him. But I am very curious to find it out. When my wolf comes back, I will be changing too. Every day I miss her more and more. Maybe Erix's wolf can bring her out again. After all, they say a wolf's claim can do many things. And I may be ready for it. "And this is my room," I told Lee, coming to the end of our tour. "Well, it will be when I fix up," I corrected. I pushed open the white door, flipped the lights to switch on, and looked around. It was less grand than Erix's room, but it was nice and would suit me perfectly. Everything was white and brown. Tomorrow, I'll have Erix take me into town and pick up some paint. It would look beautiful with lavender. And for my things such as my bed and stuff, I'll choose to blend them with black. I can envision the outcome of the room. "It's nice, I guess, for a girl's room," Lee sai
"Yelan, this is my cousin, Lee," I said plainly.She held out her hand to him. "Nice to meet you." Lee kept his smirk in place while he accepted her hand and kissed it. "The pleasure's all mine."When he backed away and released it, she giggled again. She was obviously smitten with him. "Yelan and I are going out; wanna come along?" I asked him. Lee seemed to be in deep thought before he answered. "I'll go," he said "Alright. You two wait for me here. I have somewhere to go," I added, glaring at Lee, warning him if he makes a move at Yelan, I'll kick his ass off. Lee only smirked at me before I turned to go to Erix's office. Eirx was sitting in his office with Wyatt when I arrived. They were submerged in more paperwork and business deals. I would feel bad if I interrupted them. But I wouldn't also like to see Erix angry if I leave without telling him. It would be disrespectful, and I know he wouldn't like it. "Rain. What brings you here?" Erix asked me, smelling my scent, but
Once everything was loaded up in the SUV, Yelan and I had Max swing us to the mall for an hour so we could go shopping. I'm not really a fan of shopping, and I will only grab those things I see first. I'm not like the other women who spent hours upon hours looking for their clothes. I would rather spend my time at any bookstore. I did light shopping, but Yelan filled the SUV with bags of clothing. Jude looked at Yelan, but she only smiled at her. Nearing the time that Erix gave me to go home, Lee had taken it upon himself to choose our dining location, which also happened to be where the few guys from my pack were eating. They were the ones who were traveling with Lee when he left them to meet me. Jude and Max were not happy about this and considered calling Erix to tell them about it, but after some serious begging and convincing, they let me tell him instead after we went home. They didn't like to keep things from Erix, and I understand that. "You look good, Rain. Erix's pack lo
“Will you marry me?” The first words came from Erix’s mouth when I woke up. I was about to yawn and prepare myself for a whole day of Luna and Mother duty. I looked at Erix and then at the white and gold ring with a diamond and some bluish precious stones circling the largest diamond. “Uhm, Erix?” I asked him, confused. “We already became mates, a werewolf wedding, plus we already had four children. I think it’s too late for this,” I added. “It’s never been too late for us to get married, baby,” Erix said as he held my left hand. “It’s my dream to marry a woman I love like my Dad did to Mom.”I smiled at him. What he said warmed my heart, and who am I to say no to him? “Will you marry me, Luna?” He asked again. I nodded at him. “Yes, Erix. I’ll marry you,” I said. “So when are you going to marry me?” I added, teasing him after he slid the ring to my finger and kissed it.“As soon as possible,” he replied. “I want an extravagant wedding, something we can never forget. I think we
I dipped my fingers inside his boxers and rubbed the pad of my thumb over the tip of him, ghosting my hand over the length of him.It's my turn to feel his body tremble from what I'm doing to him. It had been a while, and I knew Erix was excited, just like me. I have the power to do what I want to do because this male was mine, not by fate but by love. This mine, he's all mine. I watched Erix take a deep breath and groan out, closing his eyes. I start to pick up the pace as his hips begin to move back and forth into my fingers that have wrapped tightly around his length.His strong thighs trembled from my touch, and his eyes fluttered open, looking at me. Up and down using slow, strong strokes; I love watching this, watching him gasped quietly through slightly parted lips. I'm glad because I am the only one who can bring this side of him. I love this man so much that I will sacrifice for him. I moved faster, and my grip tightened on him, with a destination that I was going to brin
"The kids had already slept?" Erix asked me as soon as I entered our room. "Yeah. The twins finally settled down," I said, sighing before I climbed on the bed. My original plan was to sleep early, but Erix had something in his mind as soon as he put the book he was reading and started kissing me."You have no idea how long I waited, Rain," Erix said in between little nips of my skin, not enough to cause real pain, just enough to entice a rush of endorphins to be released into my bloodstream, causing excessive pleasure to rage throughout my body. He's playing to my compulsions, riling them up for what's to come...he needed them in his corner.I squirm underneath him, his hands running along my body, over my clothes, feeling my body, his fingers firm...so demanding.He began to kiss my neck, his wet tongue flicking against my sensitive flesh. He's inciting a riot within me and knows what he's doing."Let me."His voice was toned in silk, caressing my compulsions with its softness.He
With the blood infusion, Rain was saved. Diesel had hurt her so badly to the point he killed his son and endangered Rain's life. I wish I had finished him, but Zander had to do it to take what belonged to him. After Diesel's defeat, Zander took the position of Alpha and led the largest pack back to its former self before Diesel's family took it in. The doctor who did everything to save Rain was their actual Aunt. She poured all her knowledge into helping Rain and assisted Zander when he claimed the title of an Alpha.When Rain gained consciousness, her heart broke when she learned her baby didn't make it. Although the baby was not mine, I wasn't that heartless to wish him death. With Rain's fatal internal wounds, Luna Sonia said, it might take her chance to get pregnant again. Everything is back to normal now. Rijel and Diesel's death ended our suffering, and we live freely now."Mom! Come on, you got to see my friend," Clay said as he was pulling his mother's hand. "Yes, yes, Cla
I growled so loud. It was the only way for the black wolf to distract what he was doing with my Rain. The wolf stopped from biting her. Rain collapsed on the ground, panting heavily. Pregnant she-wolves were prohibited from shifting since the baby might crash. But why on earth was Rain in her wolf form despite being pregnant? The answer lies in the bastard, who had a cocky smirk, even in his wolf form. Suddenly, ten wolves tried to tackle me on the ground. I was too careless; my whole attention was with Rain, and I forgot I was in a battleground. The wolves pinned me down, ensuring I could see what was happening with Rain. Rain looked at me, still panting. She was forced to stand up but failed miserably. There was another wolf behind her who was covered in blood, and I doubt if it's still breathing. Rain's wolf huffed, trying to crawl to me, but the Black wolf stepped on her back. Rain whispered as I growled at the black wolf, warning him not to dare. The black wolf looked at
Erix's point of viewWhat Jordan told me was like a bomb exploding in my face. Rain is pregnant, not mine, but with someone else's baby! My wolf was in a rage; it wanted to rip this man's head before me, but I tried to calm him down. But what enraged me more was the man who had her was none other than Diesel Saavedra, Zander's best friend. "Starting from your parent's death to Rain's pregnancy, it was all planned," Jordan told me as he was driving. "The Blood Pack was just a distraction that Diesel had created and secretly pulled the string without anyone noticing it," he added. "Is there any particular reason why that bastard decided to ruin mine and Rain's life?" I said, trying to calm down. "For power," he said. "And for Rain. He has been wanting her since she was just a little girl; hence, he impregnated her because he wanted Rain to be his mate, and getting her pregnant through threat was just a bonus.""Threatening her?""Yes, like he'll kill you and your pack, which we know
"Erix," I breathe, stepping through the front door. He clenched his jaw and looked at me. "Rain?" His voice was shaky. "Erix, I'm home," I smiled and ran to him. He pulled me into a tight hug. Tears form in my eyes. I'm relieved to finally go home. "I thought you were dead," Eris whispered in my hair. I fell silent for a while. "Rain, you have to leave," he croaked. I pulled away from him and furrowed my eyebrows."What? Why?" "There's someone else, Rain. You were gone so long that I couldn't help but fall in love with someone else," he said.A look of regret crossed his face. My lips parted, and I started to say something."What about Clay? Amira? Where are they?""They're fine. They have a new mom now. You left them, and it's all your fault," Erix growled. It's all my fault."B-but I can explain why I was gone," I begged him to just listen to me, but Erix didn't show any sympathy. "I don't need someone like you anymore. Hence, I should have let you die when you decided to kil
"Who are you? Why are you trespassing on my territory?"A man in his late forties appeared behind a large tree. Five more wolves joined him and bore their canines to us. "P-please," Alice begged them. "We don't mean any harm. We only crossed this land because we were being chased. We're sorry for trespassing, sir."The white wolf who tackled Alice let her go and shifted into a man. He looked intently at Alice as if fighting something within him. "Where did you come from, and who was chasing you?" the older man asked. "We're from Greyhound Pack," Alice replied. Suddenly, a loud growl erupted from the man who shifted recently. "That bastard's pack!?" he growled. "Calm down, Jean. We need to know how they came here and stuff. Take them to the pack for interrogation," the older man said. He was probably the Alpha. Some of the wolves carried our bags and shifted into their human form as we walked to a path cleared of snow.We walked for about half an hour before a beautiful and mode
"Rain, do you think you can walk?" Alice asked me out of nowhere. "Yes, I can. Why?" "I feel uneasy. Let's get out here. Something bad would happen when I feel like this," she added. "Come, let's go," she said, bringing out the bags full of baby's clothing and some of our clothes.Without questioning and believing her, I helped her pack. "It's snowing. The scent of snow blocks any scent of potential intruders. With Diesel's connection, I can' assure us we're still safe here. It's better than sorry."Alice shifted into her wolf form and told me to ride on her back. I did what she wanted, and as soon as I tapped her gently, saying I was good to go, she sprinted at her top speed without particular direction. Despite the thick snow slowing us down, we made it far until we heard a loud howl. It was so loud that it made me and Alice tremble. Alice and I reached a wide river that was partially covered with eyes. We could not go to the other side without crossing that river. Alice looked
