EPISODE FORTY THREETHEME: Take the step MOON STONE FORTRESS IN THE PACK HOUSE Jaylen stared at the pair of eyes glaring at him. "Can you all quit looking at me like that?" He groaned. "I swear Claire please just remind me to keep you out of my business for as long as I can."Claire huffed with no remorse. “How the hell did you get home before me?” He asked. No response. “Claire!”“What?! I was so eager to share the news to them. So I kinda raced passed you and your lover.” She rolled her eyes. After they had left the restaurant, she had been the first to return home and took it upon herself to give Gabriella and Meagan a full run down of how it all went with Jaylen and Lorelei."How could you not see that she was jealous?" Meagan teased."Come on mom, not you. I can understand Claire and Grandma. But not you." He whined. To cap it all he was the only awake male amongst them, as his father was asleep. He had only come to the room to say hello when he almost
EPISODE FORTY FOURTHEME: Apologies MOON STONE FORTRESS BETA JULIUS HOUSE Lorelei stomped her foot all over the house, mumbling some incoherent words that no one understood. Since she returned to the house, she had been moving from her room to the living room back to the study banging doors with so much violence. Her anger seeped through the whole house.Hazel gave her husband a side look, lowering her voice and she whispered to his ears. "What exactly is up with her?”Julius looked offended. “How am I suppose to know?” "Aren't you her father?"Julius tilted his head to look at his wife. "And to what I know you haven't retired from being her mother."Hazel scrunched up her face. “You are so annoying."Beta Julius let out a chortle. “And it is why you love me baby." He replied, kissing her lightly on the cheek."Sometimes I feel like she has too much leverage and acts spoilt." "I know it's my fault for giving room to her excesses." Beta Julius admitted.Faking a
EPISODE FORTY FIVETHEME: Protective Brother MOON STONE FORTRESS BETA JULIUS HOUSESebastian watched in amusement with his parents from the study window. None of them would have thought Lorelei and Jaylen were having a thing together. She had been acting a bit jumpy and quite happy for weeks but they just thought it was her usual mood swings."I think I have had just about enough. Can we go to our room now baby?” Julius said to his wife.Hazel kept her face glued to the window pane. “Awwn aren't they so cute to watch? I really should take a picture." She said, bringing out her phone from her pocket."Hell no mom!” Sebastian protested as he snatched the phone from her. "Respect their privacy."Hazel snorted. "It's not like where they are is exactly private." She shrugged nonchalantly."Really baby?" Julius gave her a disapproving look."What? I am a mother and can't help it. Just see how nice it is to watch. I mean…I have never seen Lorelei take interest in any
EPISODE FORTY SIXTHEME: Billionaire in love MOON STONE FORTRESS Tapping his shoes lightly on the linoleum floor, his nerves getting the best of him as he waited for Lorelei to show up. Since he had brought flowers to her door step three nights ago, his mind had been quite unstable. He wanted to tell her a whole lot so bad. To cap it all, he was beginning to have wet dreams at the mere thought of her.Lorelei had an effect on him that he couldn't exactly point out. If anyone had told him his coming to Moon Stone Fortress would lead to him becoming connected to a woman he had only met almost three weeks ago he would have told such person off. He had never been keen on being with any lady friend. All his years in college he had involved in few romps here and there but had never been keen on dating or involving in some sort of flings. He got too busy with trying to make his company great that he stayed away from any form of controversy that involved women. Even if he must get
EPISODE FORTY SEVENTHEME: Hermione, Ron and Harry MOON STONE FORTRESS AT THE CAMPJuno walked into the camp’s cafeteria with an extreme gait that had everyone turning their heads around to watch her. There were less women in the Moon Stone Fortress warriors camp and it is of obvious knowledge that only the bravest of them all applies to be one of them. And also one with extreme strength and courage that could withstand the rigorous training they are made to endure.Practically every male warrior has a crush on Juno, but they knew better than to make it known to her. Aside being good looking, cheerful and brave, Juno is known to be impatient, hardhearted and difficult to please. She would only do what suits her and this drives most of her counterparts crazy every time they had to deal with that side of her. She had risen to an enviable position in rank within the few years she joined the Fortress Army which was well deserving since she had clearly
EPISODE FORTY EIGHTTHEME: Start of something new MOON STONE FORTRESS AT THE CAMPJaylen slapped his forehead in frustration, he had been trying hard to teach Juno how to operate a war field lens he had ordered for her use just to prevent her eyes from burning out when sensitively used. Juno had tried to tell him their equipments were protective enough but he didn't want to hear of it. So she had decided to intentionally make him miserable in the process of showing her how to use it.He held her hands together again to show her how to handle it when he caught the crooked smile she had on her face."No. No. Let it not be what I am thinking Juno." Jaylen mused, when he caught a hang of what she was doing. She smirked. He grabbed her by the waist, he flipped her onto his shoulder and smacked her back with his palm.Juno laughed loudly as he turned her around. Jaylen hit her lightly on the back. "Put me down Jaylen! Come on!”"Never! You should get punishe
EPISODE FORTY NINETHEME: His concern MOON STONE FORTRESSJaylen frowned at his phone again, he had been trying to reach Rosalyn since the early hours of the morning and he still has been unable to reach her. It got him worried and pissed at the same time because there were some files he needed to confirm from her before he proceeded to approve them. But she has been unreachable all morning.He had only distracted himself from work when he had drove down to the Force Base to check on Juno. He had been reminded of it when they had settled down to eat."Are you okay?" Lorelei asked with her face creased in worry."It's all good. I just need to get across to Rosalyn but she hadn't been picking up for close to an hour now." He responded, still keeping his eyes on the phone."She might be busy." Lorelei proposed."No matter how busy Rosalyn might be, she would always pick up her phone. I feel unsettled not being able to reach her."Seeing how tensed he look, Lorelei stretched
EPISODE FIFTYTHEME: Rosalyn MOON STONE FORTRESS AT THE PACK HOUSE: ALPHA CARL CHAMBERSCarl tried to hold himself up as Jaylen explained the situation at hand to them. They had all gotten used to his presence that they can't help but feel a bit sad that he had to leave urgently."I promise to be back as soon as Rosalyn is okay dad. Please hold on for me." Jaylen knelt next to his father. "You can't die on me now. I promise to sort all of this out and return home."Meagan caressed his hair slowly. “Don’t let us keep you. Rosalyn needs you more than we do right now.""Your mother is right, Jaylen. It's expected of you to be by her side." Carl supported.Gabriella heaved a sigh. “I can’t believe that sweet girl got into an accident. I hope that reckless driver gets caught.""Thanks guys. I would leave now." Jaylen muttered as he got stopped half way by Claire who had rushed into the room. He chuckled. “Hey munchkin."Claire held onto his waist immediately as she looked
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
