Catherine's POVI had a beautiful life growing up in my pack and that was because I had the most lovely mother and father to see me through, the kind of parent I didn't want to lose. My life used to be anything but certainly not out of their interest. How weird could things get? Now I could tell how ready I was to take this path without their support. She hurt me, mom confused me with her decision. Why Ezra? Why did she have to leave me under his care? I didn't get why, how come he still wanted me after what I had done? Why was I locked up in his room instead of the dungeon where traitors like myself deserve to be? I betrayed him by sleeping with another man who was my fated mate, shouldn't he punish me for my betrayal? Nothing was calling in nor did I have the mind to understand him and what he intended to do with me. I doubted he wanted me to be his queen and Luna after what I had done to him. No alpha would allow that even my parents couldn't take the shameful part of it so I guess
" I want you to know it's not an order," I said and she shook her head "No Luna, I'm okay besides, serving you is the best thing that has ever happened to me in this pack," she said the last part in a small sad tone and I raised a brow. " I loved you since the first day you stepped into this pack and when the king ordered me to always attend to you, I felt like a new person. You are a good soul Luna, I want you to know that" I nodded without knowing what to say because certainly, I didn't expect anything like this from someone who knew about my betrayal and how unfair I was treating her alpha." I will just clean up" I dragged my ass toward the edge of the bed and stopped down.I strode to the bathroom directing my steps to the sink to wash my stained face. As I finished washing my face, I noticed my swollen cheek and the small cut on my lip which had dried blood on it. I creased my left red cheek with my hand feeling how hard it was but for some reason, I couldn't feel a single pain a
Staring up at his face, It was nothing but cold. His expression was calm and gentle yet his speech seemed hushed and threatened. What was I supposed to do? He meant what he said and I couldn't tell how much he had accomplished. What if he had already done what he said or worse?I couldn't sleep that night as I kept rolling and turning on the bed in discomfort. I was too worried and scared for my good. I was scared for Hector's life, I was terrified that something might have happened to him. I couldn't imagine anything good coming from a person's sudden disappearance, he disappeared before I could wake up in the morning and now it was midnight for God's sake! He was my guard and what was I supposed to think when he hadn't shown up for more than twelve hours?I didn't know what to make out of this and the worse part was Ezra seem to know everything and what would stop him from killing him? A tear slipped from my eyes with my lips parted lying on my side with half of my face buried in th
Catherine's POVI had made up my mind to save myself the torture and ask Ezra about Hector though I was wary of what I might find and scared to find out something that would kill the little life left in me.I was scared of the unknown.But I was already dying not knowing anything.I would beg him not to do anything to him maybe that would help, I would do my best and explain to him how he rejected me many times. And it was all my fault, I used the bond against him. I made him want me even when he didn't want to betray his alpha. Tears blurred my vision once again as if I wasn't tired enough, I was dead tired but very much afraid.I shook my head and wiped my tears away staring out the window, at the green thick forest that lay behind the huge building of the Lycan pack as the warm air brushed my hair from my face. The forest seemed quiet and peaceful with only the chirping of the birds and the living insect. But then nothing seemed to be distracting me, earlier I had my class with Sir
Hector's POVI have never looked back before and I fucking hated myself more when I recollect old James' confidence when he said I would look back one day and he would live to see that day, it was a promise and I guess he has worn miserably because of her. I certainly couldn't stop myself from looking back and I guess it was the new routine for me.Catherine... It would always be her and no one else. Feeling her warmth again after days felt like decades and I didn't want to part away from her. She was all that I thought about for the past few days and so here I was feeling her in my arms again. The crazy night we shared had left something in me that I no longer wanted to let out of my sight for even a minute. I dropped here first just to see her pretty face because Ezra was in a meeting with the elders and since I couldn't hold my thirst for her I followed up to meet her in her room not minding the dangers lingering around.I was aware Ezra could walk in any moment but that wasn't so
Catherine's POV" Luna '' the man acknowledged my present with a small smile and that was after Hector had disappeared from the room. I flickered my gaze to him not knowing how to feel even though I wasn't the least scared of anything. Having Hector with me again seemed to solve my every problem, his present was all that I needed and thanks to the goddess I have gotten it. I understood how wrong it was for a pack member to see their Luna cuddling in the arms of another but I wasn't ashamed of anything.I stared at him again , his black hair was short unlike Hector who had it long behind him. His eyes gave more of a friendly vibe than the danger his body screams.There was no familiarity with him, he seemed young like someone in his late twenties. While I was wondering who he was ,he was busy watching my face for whatever reason" Sorry Luna " he apologized probably for his eyes still looking down at me which made me wonder why because he wasn't stopping" By the way I'm Jacob, the pack
Catherine's POV Most wolves look forward to finding their fated mate at eighteen, but I wasn't, maybe because it wasn't in my bloodline to end up with one, or maybe I didn't believe that I had a fated mate somewhere, but all the same, just like mom always says. Anyone can be your mate as long as you want them to be. Giving life a chance was worth it so I decided to give Ezra a chance to bey mate and other half. Eve though " That won't be necessary," I said to Dad with a small smile but he was too insistent to pay attention to a teenager like me so I let him be" Mom, I would miss you" I turned to Mom with a charming smile as I hugged her tight. " you are my baby and I will miss you more," she said sincerely and I knew she would. Mom was the sweetest and I would miss her like hell. She pulled away, and we stared at each other before barging into another warm hug; I couldn't believe the day had come for me to join my mate in his pack, a path I chose to take. How fast could time run?
The dark road wasn't supportive so I could barely see a thing. The car almost crashed into a tree nearby I heard Cooper curse hard under his breath just as most ruthless males do. A dim light flashed ahead as it appeared a car was blocking our path, I hated this but it was a known accident. Whoever was inside that heavy car planned to kill us" Are you okay Luna?" Cooper stepped down and pulled my side of the door open. I was lying dizzy on the seat with my heartbeat rising to the highest. I couldn't believe how dumped a person could be, was the road that tiny? Because if not then why did he try to kill us? I growled holding my head in pain as I lifted my head to meet Cooper's worried gaze." are you hurt?" I asked with a worried expression but when he said he was okay, I hemmed a sign of relief. " you can't come out now" he said in a straight clear voice pushing the door shut in my face ' what?' I didn't get him. What was going on with him? I understood my safety was his priority but I

" you smell different... And good" he whispered to me all of a sudden leaving a wet kiss on my forehead and strode out of the room shutting the door behind him. I just stood there with the white towel around my chest. Did he just say I smell different? I didn't understand why he said that nor how different I smelled but Aria seemed to be aware of what he just said' Can you say something?' I demanded but knowing my stubborn wolf very well she didn't blink an eye just like she always does, not the least intimidated by my voice. She hated to be ordered and I had no idea why or maybe because she was an alpha wolf. I picked the blue dress among the dresses on the bed and within a minute I was done wearing it. Standing behind the mirror, I checked myself out as my mind recalled a lot of the things that happened the previous night. And within me, I felt something different, something more exciting was exploding within me that I couldn't place a hand on. I was feeling weird inside but I was
......Catherine's POV" Luna you can't be seen like this" someone whispered pulling me abruptly and gently by the arm into a room before I could access the familiar female voice, I was already inside as the door shut behind me almost immediately leaving me in total darkness and within seconds the light flipped on" Lydia?" I was surprised and confused at the same time to see my maid acting like a hero instead of reporting me missing to the alpha king. What was that about? My eyes unconsciously stared around and that was when I became aware of the familiar room. The room I used to occupy before Ezra decided we settle for one room.What was all this?I couldn't guess what her mission was but she was shading me. I noticed the golden veil on the bed, yes the same girl I was wearing last night" You followed me?" I wasn't sure what I was asking because I certainly didn't notice anyone behind me when I was running off to Hector's and l doubt she did. But she surprised me with her nod after l
I strode into the house and gently lowered her onto the bed to not wake her " Hector" she opened her eyes and grabbed my arm the minute I was about to walk out of her side "Rest" I said this and she slowly loosened her grip. I tagged her under the sheet before walking to the small closet, grabbing ripped jeans to cover myself. " what do you want?" he stared at my room door before clearing his throat. I had never been the type that entertained visitors in my home though it wasn't the first time he was coming down here. " I doubt you will want to make noise" he raised a brow and I narrowed my eyes. I wasn't worried about anything because I knew Copper doesn't care about any of this" The alpha wants to see you" was not surprising besides, it makes a lot of sense.I shut the mind link a few hours ago when I was making out with Catherine "Any idea why?" I asked not worried much because it wasn't his first time summoning me at late night " Not really" Copper answered with an uncertain look
