Alpha Female Ciciane's POV Still

The courtroom is packed when we arrive.

Not only Lycans are showing interest, but several Alphas have also traveled here to personally attend the trial. Harad and Herod refused to let us sit in the designated compartment for witnesses and successfully persuaded the Council that we should stay put in the Royal lounge until it was time for us to testify.

And it is the King, their father, who presides over the Presidium of Judges today.

In the werewolf community, when two Alphas face trial, only the highest authority can judge their case and impose punishment. The ruling is therefore final, there is no possibility of appeal. That is the culture of the werewolf species, we do not have all kinds of lengthy procedures with a high risk of bureaucratic missteps frequently found in human trials.

On the front bench, Xanna and I occupy our seats while Harad, Herod, Walter and th

  • The Lycans' Obsession: Chasing Our Rogue Queens   CHAPTER 63- A Wealthy Ex-Mate

    A Third Party's POV Listening to my ex-mate as she recounts how she was lured by Beta Naira from Crescent Moon to the private basement of the Alpha where both men proceeded to rape her, was heartbreaking. I loved her, but I never had the chance to show that I was an ideal mate for her. Once we discovered we were fated, she completely ignored me. My older age served as a major obstacle since she preferred young and athletic types like Princes. As a result, she abandoned our mate bond and left the pack with a charming yet promiscuous human male who'd already engaged in multiple one-night stands with female wolves, most of them her close friends. For a year, I endured the pain of her absence.All those endless sleepless nights I yearned for her. My wolf would howl in agony in the woods due to the loss of his mate. Jax couldn't understand that our mate didn't find him desirable enough to stay with us. Taylor wanted

    Alpha-to-be Eugne's POV After what seemed like an eternity, we let go of each other to refill our lungs.We are surrounded by absolute quietness. Everyone is staring at us with interest, but Shiri and I only have eyes for each other. This is an unexpected turn of events for both of us. My new mate isn't much older than Taylor. Goddess, why keep bothering me with these young mates?I now scrutinize her more closely, searching for even the slightest hint of disillusionment. If she shares the belief that I am too old for her, what course should I take? But luckily she looks at me longingly and a sense of relief washes over me. At last, an affectionate mate who accepts rather than rebuffs me. “Hi, I'm Shiri. I'm sorry that we meet under these unpleasant circumstances,” my mate explained cautiously. “Don't worry, we'll come up with a solution," I assured her, although I have no idea how. “Gamma Eugne, congratu

    Alpha Eugne's POV StillWe are currently driving in a convoy towards Crescent Moon.The inauguration of the new Alpha will take place in two hours. All Alphas from the Western Hemisphere will be present, preparations for this ceremony began immediately after the Council meeting, which took place two days ago. The King intends to make it a significant event, to lift any dark veil that has lingered over this pack so that the members have a new chance to prove that they can be a law-abiding pack. Ever since word spread that Crescent Moon was responsible for the disappearance of Eclipse Howlers, its members have been avoided like the plague. They are no longer welcome in any wolf pack society, every Alpha deemed them persona non grata, warning their male members to sever all ties with she-wolves from there or risk being exiled if they dared mate within Crescent Moon. Companies with this pack's shares are also blacklisted.It took the King enormous effort to persuade

    Alpha Eugne's POV Again "Are your ears merely ornaments, warrior?" Shiri snarled at the Lycan. "Were you not present in the very hall of justice when we recognized each other as mates? How imbecilic must one be to mistake this lowly Omega for a Luna!" A fierce glint begins to blaze in the warrior's eyes, if I don't intervene now this won't end well for Shiri. And I already have too much on my mind to invite another problem. This man is a Lycan, he could snap her head off with ease! What was she thinking? “Shiri is my second chance mate, Sir Eon,” I interjected. “So she will be standing next to me. Taylor here is on a business trip in the pack.” The warrior nods curtly and walks ahead of us towards the platform. When we arrive, the Elders are already waiting there. In the middle is a table with the tall sacred goblet. “Gamma Eugne, I am Elder Welch,” he introduced himself with a gentle but firm voice that radiat

    Alpha Eugne's POV Still Over the next few days, I worked hard to put Crescent Moon's financial records in order.It's a race against the clock, I want to present a transparent overview to the King at the mating ceremony of the Princes. My reputation is at stake, I need to prove to His Highness that his trust in me was justified. It turns out that Alpha Gary has cunningly registered the entire pack's stock in various companies under his own name. He even went so far as to transfer all the annual dividends paid directly into his personal account. The maintenance costs and general expenditures of the pack are also paid from that account. Crescent Moon has no collective ownership of any kind, everyone owns only what they've paid for. Tax revenues alone carry little weight when trying to cushion these everyday expenses.His sneaky maneuvers didn't stop there. Even the pack's territory is registered in the name of the Alpha. Although formally transferable

    At last, the entire administration has come together and I can take some well-deserved personal time.The past few days have been a chaotic whirlwind, but thanks to Taylor's assistance, I was able to weather the storm. Exhausted from everything that had happened, I finally closed the cover of the last financial book and leaned forward to rest my head on the desk. Only two days remain before I must return to the Kingdom for the mating rituals of the Princes. That will be a great entrance for the renewed Crescent Moon, as I intend to impress the Royals with my accomplishments here. And, of course, properly credit Taylor for her contributions. It is now clear that I need not only a Beta but a Gamma as well.The pack is large, and as such, the Beta would undoubtedly struggle to attend to both my affairs and other minor matters at the same time. A Gamma is necessary not only to provide training but also to deal with personal grievances among mem

  • The Lycans' Obsession: Chasing Our Rogue Queens   CHAPTER 69- Intrigue And Hidden Truths

    Again Alpha Eugne's POV “Oriya, where's Shiri! I want an Answer NOW!”Jax seethes with anger due to the disrespect shown by this woman towards us. She must understand that I am the Alpha and will absolutely not tolerate anyone challenging my authority. And if this woman is to be made an example of, then so be it. Being a werewolf herself, she knew beforehand that her unforgivable behavior would result in consequences. My Alpha authority makes her freeze in her tracks, her wolf immediately goes into submission. With the mere hint of dissent, Jax’s formidable might could easily dismantle any insolence and rip her head off. In recent times, his dominance as an alpha wolf has rapidly grown and his resilience is waning at an alarming rate. Oriya is treading on thin ice with her attitude, I am perplexed as to why she took such a big risk. In the grip of terror, she turns around, her eyes fixed on the floor. “Alpha, please,

    Again Alpha Eugne's POV "Is this what you do when I'm not around?" I accuse my mate sharply. “Conspiring to take over the pack. You're deluding yourself if you think your scheme stands any chance now that even King himself has dethroned those incompetent Alphas."I glare at my mate with a fiery intensity, feeling the heat of anger rise within me. Startled, the trio turns to me as I make my presence known. Of course, they believed they could continue cooking their plan undisturbed and assumed that I was occupied with work matters. If I hadn't caught them today in time, I wonder if they would actually succeed in causing a massacre here. Without a doubt, the King would never tolerate his verdict being sabotaged.The Lycans would intervene and it would no longer be about maintaining jurisdiction over Crescent Moon, but more about endorsing the authority of the Werewolf King. This Alpha family is disillusioned when they think it would be an easy

    Queen Ciciane’s POVLooking down from the balcony, I felt content as our children began their opening dance.Today, King Jasper and Queen Herthia took the throne as Harad and I officially retired. Without a doubt, we had no regrets about this decision - these years were full of challenging responsibilities in both personal and professional domains. And now our pups, have taken up the mantle of leadership from us. "When I lost my parents, I felt terribly lonely. My heart and hands were empty," I sighed as I snuggled closer into my mate's arms. "But you have brought me so much joy; a unique sense of happiness that belongs only to me, with no one else to share. Thank you, my love." "No, Cissy. It is I who must thank you," he stressed as his arms enveloped me in a hug. "You've given me a life that's worth living. Not to mention, thanks to you, I'm the father of these incredible pups here.

    Crown Prince Jasper's POV Still The following morning, I drove to the villa next to mine in order to pick up Andrey.Herthia was still fast asleep when I left, I had left some aspirin and a glass of water on her bedside table, knowing that she would be suffering from a bad hangover later on. “Hey, man,” my cousin greeted me as he plopped down in the passenger seat. I decided to drive myself to work today and give my driver a break. With Andrey here now, I hoped we could enjoy some extra time together. “Your arrival comes out handy,” I told him gratefully as I skillfully navigated the Maserati through traffic. "Andric and Eugenie are unexpectedly on leave, and Herthia is still recovering from her heavy night. It seems like you'll need to handle secretarial duties today. Hopefully, Rami will appear if she didn't indulge in drinking last night as much as Herthia," I added dryly. "Is that right?" he chuckled.

    Crown Prince Jasper's POV Still With conflicting emotions, I rose from the bed and made my way to my mate's bathroom.There I grabbed a few facial wipes and brought them back to the sleeping Herthia. Carefully, I wiped away her makeup and dried her face with a fresh towel. I knew she despised having makeup on her face for too long or sleeping with it on. As I looked at her stunning face, my mind lingered on her words a minute ago. It was news to me that my brother had already found his mate who is none other than Eugenie with whom we work every day. Though their closeness had not gone unnoticed by me, I attributed it merely to the fact that they were raised together and shared an unbreakable familial bond. Now it turned out there was another reason for the affection between the two. “What a revelation,” I murmured, as I continued to stare at my sleeping beauty on the bed.But even more impressive was Herthia’s half-hearte

    Crown Prince Jasper’s POV The house was pitch dark when I stepped in, dead tired.Herthia must have made it home by this late hour. The women left straight after working hours today. With Andric and Eugenie absent, Herthia was in my office more often around me, much to Yin's delight. Herthia and Rami got along well, and to be frank, this new secretary was a valuable asset. When Herthia introduced her to me, I noticed that she seamlessly fit in with us as if she were one with us. But of course, that's just an idea of mine, the woman is entirely human and bears no connection to werewolves whatsoever. I poured myself a glass of whiskey and took it to the terrace. The villa was wonderfully positioned, the overview of the city was breathtaking, especially at night. This is a million-dollar view, enough to alleviate any worries from the day. But just like every night when I come home, my mind always thinks back to my mate.

    Andric gazed at Eugenie, perplexed and unable to understand the meaning behind her words. “Tell me, mate,” he playfully inquired, his eyes glued to her lips. “Usually when your wife unleashes such a pickup line, it typically preludes us receiving some exciting news like pregnancy. Do you have my pup with you, love?” Screaming with laughter, she smacked his shoulder."Can you please be serious for once in your life, Prince Andric?" she hiccupped. "We are werewolves. There are specific things that need to happen before I can get pregnant. Have you conveniently forgotten about them?" Andric hesitated for a moment, yet he didn't let go of her. Indeed, he knew that their wolves had to cooperate in order to conceive and Yin hadn't attempted it yet. Andric thoughtfully studied Eugenie's face as his mind wandered, imagining how ecstatic he'd feel if she had told him the news. “Do we want pups, anyway? We've never actually talked

    Six weeks abroad… Seated at his desk, the CEO of GoSu! Media Network was accompanied by his wife Herthia as they mapped out the day's tasks. It was their daily routine, with Herthia acting as a liaison between the executives and individual editors-in-chief across multiple production units within their organization. “We have to expand the secretariat, Herthia,” Jasper sighed. “It takes too long for me to receive files and the minutes of meetings are also behind schedule. The workload is really too much for Eugenie to handle alone.” His wife agreed with him and dropped a stack of applications on his desk. She had already anticipated this and made a pre-selection from the numerous submissions received. “Yes, please take a look at these candidates, Jasper. We receive job requests almost every day, particularly from graduates searching for work," she stated. "All of the profiles in this file meet our criteria,

    In the large meeting room of the Palace…The meeting room in the Palace was shrouded in absolute silence, you could almost perceive the brains at full speed processing what they just heard. Crown Prince Jasper has announced that he is renouncing his right to the throne and will be retiring to Human Town with his hybrid mate. This decision was due to warnings in the ancient Scriptures about hybrids entering into the Royal family. He wanted to start his family without any potential threats. Next to him stood Herthia, the eldest daughter of Luna Taylor and Alpha Eugne of Crescent Moon.Nervously shifting her legs, she kept her head bowed as emotions soared in the room. Of all the feelings present, sadness prevailed. King Harad, overcome with emotion, rose from his seat and made his way over to his beloved son.

    In Crown Prince Jasper’s Chambers … Prince Jasper turned around slowly, his demeanor didn't bode well.Yin was the one in charge, his eyes glowing a fiery red. The rejection from his mate had left the Lycan wolf seething with anger and hurt, how dare she reject him so bluntly? His pride wounded, he believed that Herthia needed to be reminded that she belonged solely to him. In no time, he got her by the shoulders and hoisted her to his face.“Don't put my patience to the test, mate! Rejection is not on the agenda here,” he warned with a growl. “This is the plan. Tomorrow, I will announce our mating to the parents and leave for Human Town the day after. We will permanently live and work in the family's company. Go pack up!" Frozen with terror, Herthia could do nothing but stare back at him as his eyes drilled into hers. Sara was no match for Yin, although his authority over her did not work because of th

    Two weeks later … "Sis, you really have to stop now. For the past few days, you have been chasing me tirelessly and I have tolerated it all in hopes that you would understand there is no possibility of us having a romantic relationship. Herthia, we are not fated nor can I accept you as my chosen mate; we don't even share intimate feelings for each other." At his wit's end, Andrey made another attempt to convince Herthia to abandon her efforts of persuading him to accept her as his mate. Despite the Prince's distress, the determined young woman persisted in shadowing him everywhere he went and deliberately positioned herself next to him when pictures were taken. “What's wrong with me, Andrey? I am beautiful and sexy, have a degree from a prestigious University, so I am ideally suited to be your mate,” Herthia insisted. “Your fated can't be better than me, with me, you'll hit the jackpot.
