  Rhea's POV

  "Today, we are gathered here for the coronation of our Alpha, Kian, and his mate, Luna Rhea, as well as for the merging of the two powerful packs, Clawson pack and Blackwood pack," declared the Elder, eliciting applause from the crowd.

  The atmosphere today was serene, and every soul present was composed until moans were heard.

  The photo of Kian and I that were projected on the wall suddenly changed to a pornographic video, featuring my husband, Kian, as the protagonist.

  The skin in between deepened in a frown as I stared at the projector in front of me trying to figure out what might be going on. The soft light in the room blends out all that cellulite on the feminine figure in lingerie straddling Kian, my husband.

  I watched with a pang in my heart at the intense video, how passionately they kissed each other, their lips moving in sync with Kian's hand sliding into her pants and rubbing her clits.

  My face scrunched in disgust as a throaty sound flew out from the woman's lips, their moaning and groaning suddenly filled the air.

  Mumbling and whispering were heard from the crowd as the women's moaning got louder. Clasping hold of my clothes, I swallowed the big sore lump that has formed in my throat painfully.

  With pain visible in my eyes, I glanced at my husband, Kian, who seemed unbothered about the whole thing. After a few seconds of painfully staring at him, I darted my gaze back to the projector to figure out who the person was but the woman on the video didn't show her face.

  Perhaps, the projectionist immediately cut off the video not less than three seconds after it started.

  Though it didn't last long, the mockery and shame it came along with were devastating and broken for me to handle.

  Kian remained on his spot with his head held high as if nothing just happened now, his nonchalant attitude toward the scene hurts.

  "Hmmm..." the Elder in charge of the coronation cleared his throat after a while drawing everyone's attention back to him.

  Though their attention was on him but the whispering was still there, it is embarrassing and hurtful for me to keep standing there after what just happened.

  "Silent!" The elder hummed, causing everywhere to go quiet. I clutch the hem of my gown with my head lowered.

  "As I said earlier, today we are here for the coronation of our Alpha, Kian, and his mate, Luna Rhea, and also for the merging of the two strong packs... Clawson and Blackwood pack," the throngs nodded their head in understanding.

  "It is an honor that after what seems like years... Clawson and Blackwoods pack decided to resolve their issues and come together as one pack, establishing a new pack and expanding our territories," a loud applause was heard from the throngs.

  It is good to see the smile on their faces but my fraying nerves weren't helping the matter at all. I can't wait for the whole coronation to be done so that I can crawl out from here.

  "We will commence with the ritual for the crowning of our new leaders," the elder said when motioning for Kian and me to step forward.

  Standing in front of him, the elder urges him to swear an oath in front of the throng that is a way of upholding the law and his people.

  "I, Kian Carlton, as the Alpha and leader of the great Blackwood and Clawson pack that has come together as one... I assure you all that your safety is safe in my hands and your welfare is my priority,"

  A loud cheer stirs from the crowd before the elder turns to look at me motioning me to step forward and make my own oath.

  I feel hurt that I'm standing beside this jerk of a man, but the welfare of the people matters to me.

  "I, Rhea Booker, the Luna, and wife of the Alpha Kian," I swallowed at the last word. Fighting back the tears that were threatening to come out.

  "I want to assure you all that your safety and welfare matters to me and as the Luna of the two adjoined packs which is one... I vow to go through this journey with you all," with my right hand raised as a sign of my oath to them, I declared.

  A loud sound stirred again putting a smile on my lips, the elder mumbled out some strange words.

  **Incantations**

  Before touching Kian's forehead and then he touched my own before turning to face the crowd once again.

  "And today, I present to you all, your Alpha and Luna of the Blackwood pack!"

  **Ehh... Aaa!!**

  The throngs erupted in euphoria, their loud applause booming through the hall.

  Soon after the coronation ceremony ended, I sighed and ran away, ignoring the burning stares I was getting.

  I didn't bother to greet the high ranker who graced our coronation ceremony. It wasn't anything new, but my heart still heaved up and down in pain, and the only way to calm my fraying nerves was with some fresh air.

  As I stepped outside, the earthly breeze hit my face, causing me to inhale sharply and close my eyes. I spread out my hands, enjoying the warmth that came with the waft when suddenly, I noticed a presence sitting beside the garden.

  "Fiona," I called, but the distaste in my tone couldn't go unnoticed.

  "C'mon, can't believe who is here," she sarcastically said in a sing-song voice, immediately locking eyes with me.

  "I never knew that unprolific women visit this garden. I thought it was only meant for fertile beings," she disdainfully said, hurling hurtful shade my way.

  Opening my mouth to say a word, I gulped hard and instantly had my mouth shut, as no words were able to form against my lips. I had a lot to say, but no words seemed to be rolling out because her words were bitter truths.

  I decided to ignore her by trying to step away, but suddenly her next words hit me hard, causing me to halt my step.

  "What an incompetent Luna who couldn't bear an heir for Alpha Kian, and that's why Kian kept sleeping around with other women," I allowed her words to repeat in my head.

  Forcing myself to digest what she just said, the rage burning within wasn't able to calm my racing heart and mind.

  "Is not as if I was lying," I watched the corner of her lips stretch out, drawing a tight dangerous line and giving her a look of the devil.

  "What nonsense are you talking about?" I snapped at her.

  "Am I lying?" she taunted, mocking.

  "You!" I didn't get to finish when she burst into a very dangerous laugh. "Have you ever asked yourself who warms his bed every night?"

  "Nice one warming a bed of a married man," I slur, but the she-devil laughs it off.

  "Not my fault that you are infertile and seriously have nothing to show for the marriage," the words hit me hard, prickling my skin.

  Raising my hand to hit her, I swallowed hard with my eyes closed. I tried to end the argument with my right hand hanging in the air almost to her face. But before I could react, Fiona dragged me, and we both fell into the fountain.

  My ceremonial dress got drenched with water, and I struggled to pull myself out from the fountain, but Fiona insisted on pulling me back with her cries echoing throughout the whole place.

  Things were getting out of hand, and her reasons for doing such were still something I had no idea about.

  Tilting my neck to the other side, that's when I saw him coming, Kian, toward us, with his face contorted in anger.

  Rushing over, and before I knew it, he jumped inside the water and saved Fiona, not even sparing me a look. Once he was sure that Fiona was out of the fountain, he stopped on his track to stare right at me.

      Rhea's POV  "What a heartless creature you are," his words tore my heart.  "You knew too well that she wasn't feeling that strong, and you dragged her into the water, for what exactly... to drown her to death or what?"  "I didn't do it!" I pleaded desperately.  "What didn't you do?" I could hear the anger in his voice.  Through the haze of my tears, I could see a deadly smirk playing at the corners of Fiona's lips as our eyes met.  "I feel so cold," Fiona said, rubbing her hands together and pretending to shiver. "Please, Kian, can you warm me up?"  Glaring at me, Kian wrapped his coat around Fiona's shoulders and pulled her close in a warm embrace.  With a nasty look in my direction, he turned and walked away with Fiona by his side, leaving me all alone by the fountain.  It hurt but it was so bad because I couldn't do anything.  I dragged myself out of the water, my clothes drenched and my spirit broken.  Sitting on the edge of the fountain, I thought back to the early da

      Daemon's POV  Standing in front of the wall mirror in my bedroom, I stared at my appearance, admiring my features.  My beta Sam came in with black clothes wrapped with white nylon.  "Here for the occasion," he said. But merely looking at the suit, I scoffed and dismissed him with a slight wave of my hand.  I am Daemon Thorn, the Alpha of the Thorn pack, and the Lycan King of the werewolf realm.  Today was the coronation ceremony of one of the strongest packs in this realm, and their Alpha Kian had invited me over to grace his ceremony and discuss business issues.  I was known as a merciless, ruthless, manipulative, vicious, and cold-hearted creature, feared among the whole werewolf realm, but I cared less about that.  Only my beta, more like a brother to me, Sam, knew truly who I am underneath the personality that I portrayed outside.  I can detect the smile that will be looming around Alpha Kian's lips when I will enter his ceremony, another reason for him to brag about my p

      Rhea's POV  I wasn't supposed to feel drawn to another man's scent, nor should I have found it intrusive given that I already had a mate and husband. Despite my attempts to discard the handkerchief, I found myself gazing back at it after giving it a gentle squeeze. With a resigned sigh, I picked it up and headed inside.  As I walked through the hallway, I greeted those who passed me and acknowledged their greetings in return, making my way towards my room. Upon reaching it, I couldn't help but smile at the familiar sight. This was a place where I could unwind and clear my head, the atmosphere always soothing.  Stepping inside, my grin widened as I took in the sight before me. Only moments ago, I had been berating Kian for forgetting my birthday, but now my spirits lifted as I approached the bouquet of flowers on my bed. I sank down onto the bed, feeling it dip beneath my weight, and leaned forward to inhale the sweet fragrance of the blooms - it was tantalizing and wonderful.  Su

      Rhea's POV  My eyes shot open, and my breathing became ragged, as if a weight was crushing my chest. I gasped for air, causing the room to spin around me. Suddenly, I lost my balance and fell to the floor. Thankfully, Mercy caught me before I hit the ground.  The realization that Kian was sleeping with someone else, especially my assistant and Beta, made my heart ache. It was a humiliating thought that someone who shared intimate moments with my husband was working alongside me to manage pack affairs. The tears were streaming down my face as I clamped my hand over my mouth, trying to hold back my silent screams.  "Oh! Mmmm… Come on,"  "So good!"  My heart constricted as I heard their dirty words, causing me to feel grief and pain. For a few moments, I forgot about the meeting until Mercy cleared her throat behind me. In response, I cleared my throat and quickly blinked away the tears in my eyes. With trembling hands, I stood up and grasped the handle, determined not to let them

      Rhea's POV  "Why did you allow Kian to mark you?"  I was dumbfounded for a moment before I regained my composure. What was he talking about?  As I looked up at him, I noticed his narrowed gaze, filled with ridicule. His mouth twitched in disgust as his question replayed in my head.  Under his authoritative voice, my legs trembled, and my chest quickly rose and fell. What did he mean by that? I stared back at him, not knowing how to respond.  The air was tense the moment his question left his lips. Before I could process everything, he asked again.  "Why did you let him mark you?"  My eyelids flew open as my heart pounded rapidly. I could have laughed at his ridiculous question. Everyone knows that I am legally married to Kian. Why the unnecessary inquiry?  Despite wanting to laugh, the seriousness in his tone left me speechless. All I could do was stare back at him.  There was an undeniable tension between us. I felt a pull towards him, for some strange reason. Something in

      Rhea's POV  Walking down the aisle with Mercy by my side after the meeting, my heart was lively and festive about everything that had happened there. Though I was concerned about my wolf's absence on my special day, the outcome of the meeting distracted me from my worries.  Striding through the hallway, "Wow!" I groaned as I bumped into someone..  "Ahh!!" The person let out a squeal but managed not to fall. When she turned around to face me, she had a fierce and disgusted look as if I had bumped into her on purpose.  Looking up, I murmured "Lila" in surprise to see her there. However, she ignored me and scowled with a raised voice, "How dare you hit me?!"  My eyebrows furrowed in confusion at her accusation. Hit! Really? I had just bumped into her unintentionally, and she knew that.  How dare she raise her voice at me? I blamed Kian for all of these embarrassing moments. Peering around I noticed our little misunderstanding. Yeah little misunderstanding, I guess that's what I ca

      Daemon's POV  As I sifted through the dozens of files on my desk, I sighed as I heard the click of my office door signaling that someone had just entered.  "Hey, Sam, any news?" Taking in his scent, I asked with my head still focused on the files in front of me.  "You've been on that page for hours before I left, and now you're still reading the same page," Sam said as he plopped himself on the couch, sounding irritated.  "What's bothering you?" He demanded.  I slammed the files shut and let out a tired sigh with my eyes shut. I didn't even realize that I had been on the same page for hours. What's wrong with me?  That Luna is fucking messing with my senses, her smile, her catchy eyebrow, and...  "Hey, bro..." Sam's deep voice pulled me out of my thoughts.  Letting out a sigh, I stared right at him, "Did you gather all the information concerning her?"  He went quiet for a while with his gaze fixed on me, scanning me thoughtfully, sighing I let out a puff breath... Here he go

      Rhea's POV  Arriving in my room after my encounter with Lila, I went close to my walk-in closet to change into more comfortable clothes when suddenly the image of King Daemon popped into my head.  For several minutes, I stood rooted to the ground, fantasizing about him and his deep black eyes that seemed to be sucking in my soul every time our eyes locked.  With his thick, manly voice and intense stare, I gulped nervously, my hand holding the embankment for support, as his intense eyes sent a striking sensation straight between my legs, making me weak.  "This is wrong! I am not supposed to be visualizing another male when I already have a mate and a husband," I yelled mentally, trying to pull myself together and control the undeniable desires that were trying to overwhelm me.  Why am I thinking about him? How could I feel this pull toward him?  Today is my day... my birthday! Why do I feel my skin burning or heating up under his gaze? I am supposed to feel connected to Kian, my

      Rhea's POV  "The death of your parents," I retort, unsure of what I just heard.  "Yes, who doesn't know the enmity between Clawson pack and Blackwood Pack? And your father killed my parents after getting into a fight with him," he narrated, smirking deadly at me. "I planned to make you pay tenfold for the pains I went through all these years but unfortunately I fall for you,"  I shook my head at him, and for once after the months tears slid down my face. I can't believe that I have lived all my life back then loving this monster!  The fight was between the two dead parents, what does it have to do with me and besides something must have triggered my father into killing his father.  He instantly yank my head by the side, "He still hasn't marked her," he said. "So we still have a chance,"  "So what next?" He asked.  "You decided, either you kill her or eloped with her," he nodded at her and turned to look at me.  "I will prefer to end us," I lift my head to look at him. "I will

"The cave.... "  "Yes, which of the caves?"  "The cave..."  "Oh! Shit… Come one," I heard Sam curse under his breath.  "Look we are here to save Luna Rhea so tell us which cave did you hear them say?" Wilfred said to him as he shook his shoulders.  "The... waterfall," his head tilted instantly to the other side and I knew that he was gone.  "Waterfall," I murmured, sounding confused.  The guards exchanged a confused look, "Waterfall," Wilfred repeated the word.  "Wait...!" We all turned to face Sam, "I think I understand what he is saying," he mumbled.  "I think he means the hidden cave beside the waterfall,"  "Cabe beside the waterfall," my face caressed in confusion, "Which waterfall?"  "The one you know," he let out.  "We only have one waterfall,"  "Yes, that's it," Sam nodded

Despite being just five our fighting skills are impressive though we can never outnumber them, the more we kill the more another set of rogues crawl out from the trees around there.  I jumped on the nearest rogue beside me and quickly pulled out his heart while biting off the other rogue with my sharp teeth. The fight lasted for a while and nobody from the pack arrived.  My warriors are getting weak, I watched in horror as the rogues were pulling out their hearts and killing them all in that spot.  It was just the remaining two and they rushed to my side, "What should we do? These rogues are much,"  I gulped when looking at the other rogues, despite having killed some but those remaining were still much.  "Not giving up," I said to them as we all rushed back to the fight. The warriors are already tired and it wasn't tha

      Rhea's POV  "You must have put a lot of effort into making this," I said to him. He reached for the wine and poured it into our glasses. "Anything for you," he winked when taking a sip from his glass.  "Never pictured you as a romantic type," I chuckled, "Yeah you are right I am not a romantic type," we both laughed.  After that we never talked and continued with the food, I can feel the tension building up within us. I kept stealing glances from each other, I wanted to move toward his side and into him but I feel so glued to my spot to even move up.  After lunch, we joked and played around for a while. We were having so much fun when suddenly the weather changed, signaling that it was going to rain. So Daemon decided that we head back to the pack, I wasn't all that happy but he was right we have nowhere to clash if it started raining so I followed him.  Once we reached the pack I walked back to the room, I guess it is now our room. I was about to close the door when suddenly it

But he gave me a mark, "That wasn't a real mark though I am glad that I have finally reconnected with you,"  I have a lot on my mind that I paid less attention to her words, Daemon stepped forward and touched my fur. I felt sparks shot through my whole body, so he has always been my mate all this while. I watched Eleanor lean into his touch as he pats her head and kisses her face.  He was rubbing my furs and back, trying to calm me a bit down... He sure knows what I need right now.  The moon slowly went back and I transformed back to my human form. Daemon held me before I could make it to the ground. I think I will get used to transforming back from human to wolf.  Going around naked is nothing to werewolves though Daemon shades my naked body away from people seeing it. I suddenly went shy under his lustful stares. He pulled out h

      Rhea's POV  But the feeling inside me was restless, my heart feels so heavy and I know the only thing to stop it is fresh air, and inside here were all locked up. Breeze is not coming from anywhere, the room is so dark that you can hardly see anything.  I think that I need to open the window or create a hole for the breeze to enter. If not I will suffocate in here. My whole body was heating up and it felt like I was trapped inside a burning flame.  Managing to place my palms on the bed, I crawled out and started looking for the window. Pushing some objects alone to the floor and my toes hit some hard objects but the pain inside me was so much that I didn't even notice that I hit my leg on anything.  I started taking it slowly till I found the window, I pulled on it but it was locked up. I groaned in annoyance, what do I do... What should I do?  Ahh!! The pain was getting too much, so I rushed toward the door banging loudly on it. My bones felt like it was on fire, I cried out an

      Daemon's POV  Once I was done with whatever I was doing in the office, I stride back to my cabin. It was already night and last as well. I am sure that Rhea would have gone to bed.  Reaching the front of my cabin, I noticed the guards that I have assigned her standing fit at the door, on seeing me they were all both submissively. I pushed the door and entered inside but to my utmost surprise, Rhea was not on the bed. This is late. She should be in bed sleeping.  "Mate!" I called out thinking that she might just be in the latrine but got no response.  I got worried and walked toward the latrine, I pushed the door open and noticed that she wasn't there. I went to the closet and she was not there either.  I panicked, where could she be by this time of the night? But her guards are out there which means that she might be here somewhere... But where? I spun around to scan the room and suddenly I felt the cold wind hit my face, it was chilling outside and the window was open.  Wait!

      Mercy's POV  "What do you mean?" Kian asked her, "She will have to take the medication **Sleeping portion** for her wolf before the moon comes out if not the wolf can not be tamed,"  I gasped, holding my mouth from making any silky sound. So Miss. Bela has been the witch all this while. So she knew about Luna Rhea and had been helping Kian trap it down. This is pure wickedness!  "No, I don't want it tamed,"  "Then what?" She raised a brow at him, "Just kill the goddamn wolf and live her wolfless,"  "Okay but it is risky, she might die," my heart pondered fast at their conversation.  "Do anything but don't let her die," she nodded at him, "One more thing... be fast," he turned around and walked away.  I hid behind the pillar as she turned around and scanned the place before entering the kitchen.  I slowly tiptoed close to the kitchen and squatted in a way that she couldn't see me before crawling quietly inside.  I went close to the nearest down cabinet that was left open and

      Mercy's POV  I was in the kitchen helping out when the other omegas rushed inside giggling, sounding all excited. Others like me were curious as to why the sudden excitement.  This period has been one hell of a thing, no going or entering the pack and at the same time torturing and starving everyone to death just to get Luna Rhea's attention. We all know how she cherishes the pack though I always hope that she doesn't come back here but the news the omegas dropped had my heart flipped up, "She is back,"  "Who is back?" Someone asked.  "Luna Rhea is back!" I instantly froze on my spot, "Our days of suffering are over!!"  My mind was no longer in their conversation, how could Daemon allow Luna Rhea to come back? I thought that they were mates and he was supposed to care for her. Yes, I didn't get to tell him about the information that I heard between Sheila and Alpha Kian because he suddenly placed a strict rule that the guards shouldn't grant an exit for any single soul in the p
