EPISODE SEVENTY TWOTHEME: The What If? MOON STONE FORTRESS"Stop playing!" Sebastian exclaimed as he tapped the table in amusement.Jayden flipped his tied ponytail to the back, crossing his legs as he chuckled. "I didn't know what I was thinking but it came out all of a sudden and it didn't feel exactly bad."Nodding his head, Sebastian had a full smile on. "I'm super proud of you man!” He chuckled.Jayden arched his eyebrows. "I see I have never actually made you proud before now.”Sebastian snorted. “To be honest, you hardly do."Jayden laughed really hard. When he had said a greeting to Jaylen he had thought it might feel weird but it was just fine. After Sebastian had told him to try his best to make amends and not make his brother an enemy, he had thought it through and realized everyone of them are right.Since Jaylen is no longer an exact threat then there was no exact need to make him an enemy. Jayden felt quite proud of his twin brother for being able to
EPISODE SEVENTY THREETHEME: Lorelei’s anger MOON STONE FORTRESSLorelei giggled as Jaylen tried to make another joke. Since Jaylen came to pick her for lunch he had been unable to keep his hands to himself and she had even caught him staring at her too many times.Lorelei felt like the happiest person in the world, having a man who feels so much for her and doesn't hide it makes her feel like the luckiest woman on planet earth."Hope you weren't too stressed at work today?" Jaylen asked as he rubbed her hands with his thumb."The day isn't over yet, I won't know until after lunch." Lorelei replied with a chuckle. "So tell me what have you been doing all day.”“I have been holding a virtual board meetings on a new business project we are about to embark on.” He replied.“Do you miss Chicago?" She asked.Jaylen nodded his head. “Yes. Sincerely, I do miss Chicago and I really don't mind being there at the moment." He held Lorelei’s gaze as he responded.Jaylen was quick to
EPISODE SEVENTY FOURTHEME: Official MOON STONE FORTRESS"Shit!" Jaylen muttered when Lorelei stormed out. He had been so engrossed in his discussion with Juno that he had totally forgotten his girl was still on seat.Juno looked innocent like she wasn't aware of what had just happened. "What’s wrong?"Jaylen let go of her hand and beckoned to the waiter. He paid up for the food they ordered. He mumbled a goodbye to Juno in a rush and left the restaurant at a close run.Juno stared in amusement as she sat where Jaylen had sat and she couldn’t help but laugh to herself. She felt good and petty at the same time although it was unlike her to be so inconsiderate of others. But it was too much for her and the jealousy she feels towards not just Lorelei but any other person who seem to be happy in their relationships.Juno sniffed as a tear threatened to drop. She had never been greedy for anything her whole life but the only thing she had asked the Moon Goddess for was for her t
EPISODE SEVENTY FIVETHEME: Jayden’s change of heart MOON STONE FORTRESS AT THE PACK HOUSEJayden whistled an happy tune as he walked into the pack house, for no actual reason he found himself extremely happy and fulfilled. One of the reasons he loves to hang around Sebastian, is because of how much he inspires him to do some necessary things.Releasing his hair from the band holding it together, Jayden let it flow and it dropped on his shoulder. Jayden ran his hands through his silky hair as he made his way towards the stairs. When he got to the top, he met his grandmother on the way and it looked like she had just woken up from a nap."Hey Granny." Jayden hollered as he gave her a bear hug.Gabriella returned the gesture with a bright smile on her face."Woah! I can’t remember the last time I hugged you. You seem to be in the best of moods today. I do hope you know your brother is still here.” She reminded him.Jayden scoffed in a playful tune. “Of c
EPISODE SEVENTY SIXTHEME: Possible effects MOON STONE FORTRESSWalking into the house, Jaylen felt exhausted. After lunch with Lorelei, he had decided to visit the public library in a bid to find some sort of unfamiliar distraction. Heading towards his room, he was forced to halt his steps when Gabriella stood in his way.Jaylen raised a brow, trying to show her how uninterested he was in indulging her excesses. "Please Granny. I am really tired.""What have you been up to all morning?" Gabriella questioned."And the last time I checked I am a full grown adult Granny. Please can you let me go." He pleaded sounding really exhausted.Gabriella observed him, she could tell he needed to have a quick nap and she wouldn't want to be an obstruction to that. "Fine, I let you go but don't miss dinner though.""Is it necessary?" Jaylen tried hard not to roll his eyes."Yes Jaylen, it is necessary. Your brother asked for everyone of us to eat together and it would be rude of us to de
EPISODE SEVENTY SEVENTHEME: Playful Tune MOON STONE FORTRESS AT THE PACK HOUSEEveryone looked in surprise as they came down to the dining room to find Jayden already seated with a nice smile on his face. Mumbling a greeting to each of them, Jayden stood up to take his father from Jaylen and he wheeled him to the end of the table."Wow, these delicacies all look breathtaking. Did you have a hand in this mom?" Claire asked ogling at the dishes."I can bet Meagan has a hand in this." Gabriella noted.Meagan smiled lightly. “I didn't do much, just told them what we would like to have."Everyone settled into their meals but with each one careful to not say too much. Only Carl seem to be a bit more relaxed.“How did it go at work today, Jayden?" Carl inquired.He took a sip of his juice. “Very well dad. Our second quarter raked in a huge line of profit for us." Jayden replied his eyes filled with pride."That is really impressive." Carl said with a huge smile p
EPISODE SEVENTY EIGHTTHEME: A silver fur MOON STONE FORTRESS‘You wouldn't believe it Rosa. But I must say it's like one of the best moments of my life. I was scared and relieved at the same time.’ Jaylen said.Jaylen dumped himself into the bed taking in the warmth it offered. For the first time since he arrived at the fortress. It finally felt like an actual home. He would have never imagined Jayden making small talks with him let to talk of making jokes. It felt really good and fulfilling.He couldn't keep it to himself and thought to call Rosalyn. Jaylen could have called Lorelei instead, however she wouldn't understand how hard it had been for him the past years. Unlike Rosalyn who had almost become a part and parcel of his life.‘You don't say!’ Rosalyn exclaimed on the other end.Sitting up again, feeling extremely restless and happy. Jaylen let out a chuckle. ‘You should have seen how our parents faces glowing so much. It shows how much they have been waiting fo
EPISODE SEVENTY NINETHEME: The sweet sex MOON STONE FORTRESS AT THE PACK HOUSELooking through the hallway to be very sure no one was lurking around, Juno took cautious steps towards Jayden's room. The door was meant to be opened for an easy entrance. She had been so eager to be left alone with him all night but the dinner ended late than expected.Aside that it felt nice having the whole family be on talking terms, it reminded Juno of the times they were younger, times when Jayden and Jaylen had each other's back and didn't act like sworn enemies.Tiptoeing lightly she entered the room, and it was pitch black which scared her for a moment. Juno adjusted her wolf’s eyes to the room and she realized that Jayden wasn't in bed. She checked the bathroom and he wasn't there either but it was obvious that he had left the room not quite long, considering the fact the he had left the door opened for her to get in.Juno took off her clothes and she laid naked under the
EPILOGUE THREE YEARS LATER JAYDEN DMIEN’S HOME, NEW YORK.Jayden stared at the WhatsApp media that was sent to him on his phone. They included pictures and videos of Jaylen playing around with his daughter named Ramaya. His niece is an adorable young girl that lights up every where. Most times he is forced to indulge in a video call with the family because she always cries about wanting to speak with him.It amazed him every time because he had never seen Ramaya before aside her images and videos being sent to him. Jaylen had pleaded for him to pay them a visit but Jayden had refused. However, he ensured gifts was sent every time to her. Jayden, knowing how much he was still attached to Lorelei, he didn't want to be reminded of how much of a loser he was.Jayden handling his father's chain of businesses had kept him away from suicidal thoughts. However, he was no longer feeling comfortable with the situation. Not only did the silver poisoning ruin his leg
EPISODE HUNDRED AND FIFTY FIVETHEME: Alpha De Luna MOON STONE FORTRESS ONE MONTH LATERJaylen tried to hold his knee down to stop his foot from tapping on the floor continuously. Lorelei intertwined her hand with his, mouthing words of encouragement to him. This was the second time since three months ago when he got introduced to the entire Fortress as their chosen Alpha. He was back here now to address them after finally being installed as the Moon Stone Fortress Alpha.His address speech was coming up soon and for the first time in his entire life he was really nervous, not because of the number of people in front of him but the thought of him walking in his father's shoes eventually. The past few weeks had been a rollercoaster of emotions coupled with whole family still mourning the death of Juno.Jayden eventually got discharged from the infirmary about a week ago after undergoing so much tests and infusions to keep him alive. However, he insisted on
EPISODE HUNDRED AND FIFTY FOURTHEME: Finding peace MOON STONE FORTRESSIt had been three days since the Rogues invasion and Juno’s death. When Jaylen got a call that Jayden was conscious, he had practically rushed down to the infirmary driving at a high speed. Every day since Jayden got admitted, he had been visiting his brother for long hours and sitting next to him till the Iotas comes around to tell him visiting time was up.Things were beginning to go back to normal, however everyone still had a gloomy look on their faces. It was bad enough that Jayden wasn't awake yet and they had no idea how he might react to being confined to a wheelchair for the rest of his life.However, Jaylen had made up his mind to stand by his brother which ever way it is. He wasn't going to let another enmity breed. He was tired of having to fight an enemy that is not just anyone but his own brother.The moment Jaylen entered the private ward assigned to Jayden, he saw him seated up
EPISODE HUNDRED AND FIFTY THREETHEME: The rewards MOON STONE FORTRESS : AT THE BORDERJaylen's stared in shock, his breath unsteady as he watched Juno swim in the pool of her own blood. By this time, the Fortress warriors no longer wasted any time as the launched a counter attack with bullets and arrows flying through the air. Jaylen ran through the chaos to meet a lifeless Juno and unconscious Jayden.“Retreat! Retreat! Retreat!” Liam barked out orders to his men when he saw that they were being defeated by the Fortress warriors. “No—“ His voice trailed off as several bullets pierced his back, Rex had been the one who fired it.The Rogues retreated with their wounded bodies after Liam's collapsed to the ground with his body laid cold and his eyes staring out into the dark night sky."Juno! Juno! Talk to me please." Jaylen growled.Rex ran towards Jaylen, he had to be protected amidst the chaos. "Jaylen! Get up man. We have to leave here." He pulled at him.Jaylen sniffed,
EPISODE HUNDRED AND FIFTY TWOTHEME: Who betrayed who? MOON STONE FORTRESSAT THE BORDER: IN THE NIGHTLiam geared himself up, making a head signal to his men as Jayden and Juno walked in. He grinned to himself of his plans on how he intends to eliminate them. There was nothing much to do to Jayden again cause he looked really weak and might collapse if pushed for too long. The wobbling in his legs was beginning to look more obvious."Are you ready?" Liam nodded at them.Jayden thinned his lips in a painful way. "I am as long as you are. Thanks for doing this on my behalf, Liam.""Anything for a friend." Liam grinned.Juno glanced around, gulping hard as her eyes landed on Jayden who seem to be in a deep conversation with Liam. He was looking extremely weak and it bothered her. When Juno had asked if he was feeling some sort of pain, Jayden had said no, but staring at him from afar he looked really sunken.Putting her mind off him for a while, Juno thought about herself and
EPISODE HUNDRED AND FIFTY ONETHEME: Juno’s Betrayal MOON STONE FORTRESSThere was no need to call out the family because the women were already seated in the large living room to Jaylen's surprise as if they knew what has been planned. Since it is not profitable for the Rogues to attack in the early hours of the day, his intention was to see Sebastian and Rex out and have them rest till evening then find a way to gather all of them and let them know of the situation.However, the look on their faces gave them out like they knew exactly what was going on. The moment Rex stepped feet down the stairs Claire ran towards him.Jaylen threw his head back. “Oh of course." He had almost forgotten that the Intel had been gotten from his sister.The moment their eyes met she burned holes through his skin with her vicious eyes. He glared back at her. He knew she was clearly pissed at him for choosing not to believe her. He decided to take a seat and explain the situation to the expect
EPISODE HUNDRED AND FIFTYTHEME: The Ranks MOON STONE FORTRESSWhile Sebastian made calls to the people he had mention earlier. Rex tutored Jaylen on the people taking part in the order of the Fortress."How is it that I don't know anyone till now?" Jaylen questioned."You have never been actually initiated yet and the day of your unveiling didn't exactly go as planned. Your tantrums was enough to piss one off." Rex blurted as he shot him an intentional glare.Jaylen snickered at him. “You know what, forget I said anything. Give me a briefing about them before they all get here and think I have some kind of Alzheimer. I can’t even remember we were tutored on these ranks when we were little.”"If you weren't away for so long one would have thought that was the case" Rex mumbled under his breath."I can actually hear you."Rex chuckled lightly. “Now listen, the Zeta—“"Is the War General." Jaylen interrupted looking a bit offended. "I am not that dumb you know, I lived here
EPISODE HUNDRED AND FORTY NINETHEME: The map is gone! MOON STONE FORTRESSAT THE BORDERRex had his heart in his mouth when he followed Juno to the Rogues site. To cap it all, Jayden was outside waiting for her. The both of them held onto each other for a while before letting go to head inside the house.Getting down from the car, Rex activated his wolf spy mode, blending into the bushes around as he made his way towards the back of the house. Men were on patrol, and knowing how dangerous it would be if he got caught without getting the exact information he needed, he moved discreetly. He rolled among the long grasses to get to his intended destination.Rex almost crawled into the hands of two Rogues passing by but he hid himself well. He could see from the window side that had light on a group of people that included Jayden and Juno. There was no doubt Juno had given out the secret map to them. Rex looked closer, squinting his eyes through the darkness that he engulf
EPISODE HUNDRED AND FORTY EIGHTTHEME: Liam’s intention MOON STONE FORTRESSAT THE BORDERLisa burned holes to the side of her brother’s face as he sipped on the glass of vodka he had in hand. He looked really unbothered by her."It has been more than two weeks, Liam, shouldn't we stop now? He is looking pale already." She told him."Still hasn't done enough damage if I must say. That young man looks stronger than one would imagine and it must be due to the Alpha’s blood in him.” Liam replied."What exactly do you intend to gain from this?"Liam turned to face his sister sharply. “The Secret Passage Map is a way for us to get into the Fortress, having him weak and almost dying would make him useless in confronting us when the truth comes out. I don't want to underestimate his ability.""How about the girl?""You don't have to worry about that.""Are you sure about this Liam? You don't appear to have a plan.""What do you think my men and I have been working on for the past
