The Loathed Luna Taken
Ashina gazed at Hrolf's face which had contorted into a frown when he heard what Gravon had just told him, she wondered what exactly it was that he was being told for his face to have changed in an instant.She smiled at him when he turned to take a look at him before he finally forced a smile on his face. "Since when has this been happening?" She heard Hrolf ask Gravon who shook his head, informing him that he didn't know anything about it. "I have been too lenient with her and I never knew that this has been happening underneath my nose" Hrolf answered Gravon who was deep in thought. His spy had given him information on Cassie's activities and just hearing about it had left him speechless. "You need to come, she is there already with Erik and they are making the selection of the guards who will be assigned to the border" Gravon informed him.Hrolf took a look at Ashina who kept staring at him."Erik is there to oversee them, he knows the strength of each guard and he will make t
The Loathed Luna Make them pay
"Ashina" Hrolf screamed while running after the shadow who he had seen carrying her away. His feet moved as fast as he could but he felt life move out of him as smoke filled the field that he had been standing in. Chaos filled the field as everyone rallied around Hrolf wanting to protect him, but he barked out an order to them."Get that person, make sure he doesn't escape, he has your Luna with him'' he shouted, as he ran with Gravon who was at a loss at what exactly had happened. He had thought that Ashina would be safe if she was with them but it seems that the tactics that had been implored by the members of the black market were ones that he wasn't used to."Don't" he held Hrolf on his shoulder when he attempted to run into the field. "Let me go, Gravon" Hrolf warned, he was ready to do everything just to get Ashina back and that included striking Gravon with the dagger if the needs arise. "You cannot go in there" Hrolf tightened his hold on Hrolf's shoulder, forcing him to
The Loathed Luna Dangerous terrain
Cassie wondered what exactly had prompted Ramon to walk into the pack taking Ashina with him, she patted her forehead when she recalled the look he had on his face the last time he had seen herHe might have been angry at how Hrolf had treated her and might want to retaliate back but still, he shouldn't have acted so irrationally.Walking into Hrolf's pack was unreasonable and was something that she never expected him to do, she bit into her nails as she paced up and down the hallway. She could feel Hrolf's anger from a distance and it was disastrous, it was something that she wouldn't want to face."Be calm, my men will make sure whoever kidnapped Ashina doesn't live your border" Gravon whispered to Hrolf as they made their way down the hallway Hrolf halted, and took a look at Gravon, wanting to make sure he had heard him properly. "Are you sure about what you have just said?" Hrolf didn't want anyone giving him the wrong impression. He didn't want to risk things when it involved
The Loathed Luna Dripping
Hrolf, who hadn't recognized the person standing before him at first glance, did when he heard the name Cassie had just called.This was the last person that he had expected he would see in his pack and it piqued his curiosity as he tried to recall exactly what might have prompted him to kidnap Ashina but he couldn't find any unless Cassie had ordered him to. Ramon, blinded by rage at Hrolf for what he had done to his mate, had decided to kill Ashina hoping that Hrolf would be heartbroken and he would blame it on the bounty that he had heard was placed on her head but who knew that he would be caught. He had made proper arrangements and was hoping that Cassie would be gladdened when she heard about what he had done later on but he never knew that he would be captured immediately after he had stepped his feet in the bush. He moved his gaze to Cassie who stood shocked while staring at him with a disgusted look on her face making his wolf cry out in pain and agony. He knew that there
The Loathed Luna Choke
Hrolf let out a breath of air when he saw Ramon laying limp in his arms, he was in shock wondering what had happened when his gaze wandered to Cassie who had a glint in her eyes."He deserved it" she shrugged her shoulders when she saw the look on Hrolf's face, he rolled Ramon off his chest before placing a finger on his neck. "He isn't dead yet, you should count yourself lucky because if he was dead, then you would have gone along with him," Hrolf told Cassie who was stunned. She had thought that she would be applauded because of what she had done but instead, here she was receiving threats for saving Hrolf. Gravon groaned as he stood up, he was in pain and he felt like he had been run over by a horse. "Get me a silver chain" he made gestures at one of the guards who ran away, going to do what he had been told. He had seen life flash before his eyes, and his steps were slow as he made his way to Ramon who was lying still on the ground, his chest heaved up and down so he knew th
The Loathed Luna Mate as strong as him
"Let me go" she pleaded as she felt air being knocked out of her lungs, she continued tapping Cassie's hand which was wrapped around her neck firmly but still, she refused to let go."Please" she pleaded, her eyes turning into slits, she had heard about how dangerous Beta Cassie was and since she hadn't experienced it before, she had taken it all as a joke."You should be careful when you are addressing me, how dare you?" Cassie questioned angrily, venting all of her pent-up anger on her."Please" she pleaded again before trying to shove Cassie away, but her strength was overpowering, so she shut her eyes welcoming death when she felt the grip on her neck being loosened and she ran to a side of the room, intending to catch her breath. "You shouldn't have overstepped your boundaries," Cassie said to her while wiping her hands on the handkerchief that she had brought out of her gown. Cassie glanced at her hands with a smile on her face, she loved the color of the blood which was on th
The Loathed Luna Trust
The night was cold and Cassie could feel shivers run down her spine as she stepped into the passageway, the sky was dark and it showed that it was late at night but still, she had a mission in mind. One that she had to implement under the dark, one that although she knew would arouse suspicion toward her, she couldn't care less. The pitter-patter of her feet could be heard as she walked on the passageway, she let out a hiss when she heard her feet echo in the silent passageway so she retorted to walking on tiptoe, at least with that, she knew that she wouldn't have fear of being caught.She let out a breath of air as she walked down the steep stairs before her, and hid among the darkness when she heard voices, voices that signified that some of the guards weren't asleep yet. She bit on her lower lips until she could taste the silvery taste of blood on them. She wished at that moment that she had some sort of power that would make her invisible so she would carry out the work she wa
The Loathed Luna Lying still
"Alpha Hrolf would have our heads for this, how exactly did this happen?" One of the guards questioned while fidgeting. while turning his gaze around, wanting to see if anyone had come in, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't see anyone. "Hand it over" he stretched out his hands to his colleague who squinted his eyes at him wondering what he meant. "The key, hand it over, now" he barked out his orders. He pulled the key away before walking into the dungeon where Ramon was clutching his heart still while groaning in pain. He had a lot of regrets and one of them was trusting Cassie while hoping that she had changed but now, he had to pay for it. For trusting her. He gripped the guard's clothes firmly intending to spill out Cassie's name but he couldn't utter a word, he stared into his eyes with pain before letting go, his hands falling beside him and the guard stood motionless before walking out of the room. Cassie ran away, her feet moving as fast as they could, she exhale

The Loathed Luna Blissful end
"Helena" Ashina screamed out loud with a hand placed on her chest when she tripped on the floor. "Shush" Gael carried her up, patting her gently on the back, Ashina let out a sigh of relief when she saw Gael patting her gently. "Mother, she is fine, you do not have to worry about her" he said to her with a smile on his face.Ashina nodded at him before walking forward with her bulging stomach, a hand around her waist.Hrolf had been so scared when she had given birth to Helena so he had told her that he didn't want any more children and that Gael and Helena were enough but somehow, he had ended up getting her pregnant. She could remember the reaction he had when he found out what he had done and had apologized profusely for making her go through pain again but Ashina had dissuaded him, letting him know that it was fine."Mother," Helena called out to her with misty eyes, while stretching both of her hands out but Gael held her firmly. "You wouldn't want to hurt Mother now, would y
The Loathed Luna His Luna
Hrolf stood with sweaty palms and his heart beating fast when he gazed at himself in the mirror. It looked just like a dream which he didn't want to wake up from.The door was pushed open slightly and Gravon walked in, staring at Hrolf, he placed a hand over his mouth, a smile on his face "You look..." his gaze wandered over Hrolf as he tried to find the right word to say. "You look handsome" he finally managed to say, while walking toward Hrolf. " Thank you" Hrolf patted both of his hands together trying to think properly. This was a lot but knowing that Ashina was the one who he would be walking down the aisle with was worth it.Letting out a sigh from his lips, he turned around, meeting Gravon's gaze. "Is everything ready?" He asked again, making Gravon roll his eyes at him. "All preparations have been made, Alphas from different packs are seated already, you aren't having cold feet, are you?" Gravon asked, wanting to be sure because Hrolf was acting in such an awkward way tha
The Loathed Luna Pass out verdict
The cheering of the crowd as Cassie and Erik was brought in, pierced through Hrolf's chest as he tried to think, faced with a lot of uncertainty and the fact that he had to mete out judgment on them. Clutching the arm of his chair tightly, he turned his head around to see Ashina gazing straight at Erik, with a blank look on her face."Are you okay?" He asked her, her face was pale and recently, she had been under a lot of pressure with merging her pack with his. Smiling back at him Ashina nodded at him, showing him that she was okay.She placed a hand over her mouth, trying as hard as she could not to gag. "Are you sure you are okay?" Hrolf asked again, with concern on his face. He was ready to pass out judgment next time if she wasn't okay. "I am fine" Ashina repeated, her voice firm and strong, she flipped her head to the side where Cassie was glaring at her but she couldn't care less."The people await your judgment" Hrolf let out a sigh as he stood up from the chair that he w
The Loathed Luna Iota of pity
"You got to be joking" Hrolf said to Gravon who gazed at him. If there was something he loved doing, it was ruffling his emotions and he loved that look on his face that showed that he was tense."She is okay, but.." he pulled Hrolf with him to the side. Taking a look at the old man at intervals. "Do you think handing her over to the old man is the right thing?" He wanted to know. " Gravon" Hrolf placed a hand on his shoulder, " Someone has to put her down, she has to pay for all of the numerous things that she had done and I do not want to be the one who will do that for her,"Gravon nodded agreeing with what he had just said but still," Wouldn't you be affected? We grew up together and besides, she is Gael's mother,"" I have made my decision and I am not going back on my word," Hrolf said firmly, not wanting to repeat himself anymore. Letting out a sigh, Gravon pondered on what was happening. If this was what he thought was best, he was going to go along with it. "Take him al
The Loathed Luna His compensation
Although it had taken a lot of convincing, Ashina knew that she would have gone with Hrolf even if he hadn't done so much, with how much she missed Gael and how she wanted to be by his side, she would have gone with him.With one hand wrapped around her waist, he kissed her gently on the cheek before yanking on the reins of the horse to move. Picking up the chase and running through the thick forest, Xeva, Hrolf's horse drove like lightning through the thick bushes.Ashina had talked to her pack members and the elders, letting them know that she would be back soon, after settling whatever it was that she had to do at the white moon pack. And at almost dusk, Gravon's men, who he had placed at the boundary of both packs, waved earnestly, cheering him happily. Hrolf flashed a smile at them before donning a blank look as Xeva ran toward the pack house and at every pace it took, Ashina's heart beat faster than the last. Knowing that she was coming back here evoked nostalgic feelings in
The Loathed Luna Safe haven
Hrolf caressed Ashina's hair gently which was sprawled out, her chest heaved up and down, showing that she was fast asleep.Stroking her hair gently, he let out a sigh of relief, he was sure that they were back to how they were before and he was ready to do right by her. Exhaling sharply, he stood up gently, placing Ashina on the bed before standing upright. He had intended to saunter toward the window when he felt a hand wrapped around his wrist. Turning back, he flashed Ashina a smile."Where are you going?" Ashina asked, trying to sit upright, when she finally did, she ran her gaze at Hrolf who was naked, making her gulp in her spittle. Although they had gone on and on, she still found herself wanting him. Again."I guess I didn't do a nice job there" Hrolf's gaze darkened as he walked back toward the bed, taking in Ashina's appearance as he walked closer. Her hair cascaded down giving her ample coverage over her perfect boobs, licking his lips, he thought of how they had fitte
The Loathed Luna Forcing her to meet his pace
Ashina pulled open the door to her room gently before stepping in, running a finger on the chain lying by the side of the bed, she shut her eyes, before flicking them open, it had happened in the blink of an eye. From being recaptured to being chained to her bed and Hrolf barging into the pack to rescue her, finding out he had been in cahoot with Zeeb from the onset and then Zeeb's death. She would have argued blindly with anyone who had said Erik was betraying Hrolf because she knew that he wasn't like that but this has taught her a lesson. To vouch for who she knew very well. She had been betrayed also even when all she had done was being kind and she could understand the turmoil Hrolf was in, he was trying to be strong, losing both Cassie and Erik at the same time but he had no other choice.Standing up she sauntered across the room, toward the window, it was dusk already, and now, she had gotten back her pack. She was the rightful heir of the Sussex pack and now it was in her h
The Loathed Luna Left her stunned
Erik grunted lowly when he was forced to stand up, with his head pressed against the wall, Ashina had walked away, intending to address her pack. She felt relieved at the fact that the pack had been handed over to her and this time, she was going to do whatever it takes just to make sure that nothing happens to her people. Hrolf stood by the side watching with admiration at how vocal she was with letting everyone know about her intention, she wasn't avoiding any questions that were being thrown at her and he was glad to see her do that. Ashina could feel a heated gaze behind her and she knew who it was, there was just a man who was capable of stripping her naked with just his gaze. Hrolf. And this time, she was going to make sure that he didn't have it the easy way. She was going to make him plead for a long time before accepting his apology even when it didn't look genuine. The cheers of the pack members caused a smile on her face as she glanced at them, knowing that she was thi
The Loathed Luna Not remorseful
Waves of emotions swept through Hrolf who was contemplating what he had just heard, although he knew that Cassie had done a lot and angered a lot of people still, he was trying to think of a better punishment. "What do you intend to do to you?" He asked although he knew what it was. Ashina glared at him. "He wasn't seriously thinking of saving her now, was he?" She wondered, she hoped that he wasn't going to do that. If he wanted her, he had to show that he wanted her in his life and the first thing was to hand Cassie over. "That isn't yours to find out, Alpha Hrolf, I have heard of your splendid deed and I must tell you that I am mesmerized by your deeds, unlike my son here" he gestured at Zeeb. " Although I wasn't any better than him, days alone in that dungeon taught me a lot of things and when I found out that Ramon was dead" he shut his eyes as though he was honoring his dead son's image before flicking them open. " It shattered my life, Ramon was the apple of my eye, my hei
