* Ashley *It was very late when I feel a movement inside the room, I know it was him. My husband came, at last, I waited, however, I fell asleep and I could not remember at what time. His footsteps are slow and calculated, he doesn't want to wake me up. When he reach the bathroom door and went inside, I got up from the bed and turn on the lights.I wanted to know what happened, his mind link told me that the Luna of the North has given birth. He sounded excited and it made me want to come however he insisted that we come together tomorrow and I understand since they said there were complications and she almost lost too much blood.A few minutes passed until the bathroom door opened and he came out wearing just a small towel covering his waist down to his thighs. The droplets of water are visible on his chest and arms, making my throat go dry just by looking at him. My husband the Alpha King possesses the sexiest body of a man alive."I thought you were sleeping sweetheart, I'm sorry.
* Alpha King Vincent *My father hug her tight as she opens her eyes and look around her. The room is filled with flowers from the garden as my father brought for her every day. She looks fine and her strength has come back, I can feel the amount of energy she has replenished from her bed rest which is guided by the wizard of the pack."We are so happy that you have finally woken up Carmela my love, our son is here together with Ashley. Maleficus and your father are also here to support your recovery. My love, I swear to you that nothing of this sort will ever happen again, you will not leave my side starting today. And those vile wolves will suffer paying for their crimes in the dungeons of the palace."My father is determined and Beta Derek personally visits the prisoners every day to make sure that they could not escape. I hold Ashley's hand as she smiled and watches my father and Carmela. We are standing beside her bed."Oh, thank you, love. But I hope in time we can forgive and f
* Ashley *He is occupied the whole day I did not see him, I only get a chance to hear his voice when he asked me if I had lunch. Then I said yes, and he said that he might come home at eight o'clock in the evening thinking that he is working late because of the pack I ask Riza that we prepare a delicious dinner for both of us."Wow, I think we did a lot!"I exclaimed looking at the large roasted turkey and a bowl of green salad, a creamy roasted garlic mashed potato with a plate of roasted green beans. The delicious smell encircled the whole kitchen and the entire house."Oh! It's enough your majesty. The Alpha King must be starving, he had a lot of work today."I nodded and smiled at Riza and Claire who have helped me prepare everything. We made sure that all is cooked well."Yes, you are right and he is coming home late. You two can get some rest now, thank you so much for your great help today.""You are welcome your majesty, see you in the morning!"Riza and Claire bowed to me be
* Ashley *"Listen, everyone, before the training starts today I wanted to introduce the presence of my Luna in the pack. The Queen of the Royal pack, Luna Ashley. She's here to learn from the warrior's daily training and perhaps also with you guys to make herself stronger. This is the first time she will do this without me, for the reason that I have something urgent at the office of the palace."The loud voice of my Alpha King Vincent echoes around the huge training hall for the warriors as he introduces me to the pack warriors. They all look at him listening to every word he said. My gaze moves around looking through the various fitness equipment, from the treadmill, kettlebell set, pull-up frame and bar, rowing machines, fitness ball, and a whole lot more but most of them I couldn't give a name to."Welcome to the warrior's training ground, Luna Jasmin!"Alex and Calib the closest friend of my Alpha King lead the pack of warriors in this hall, with Beta Derek who leads the asses
* Alpha King Vincent *"The West is not ready for war! What is happening, how did Beta Kasim die?!"When the morning comes unexpected news on Alpha Xander from the West brought my mind a lot of concerns. His Beta is murdered, and someone from the pack has given him poison. Now aside from the few warriors of the Royal pack that helps his army nothing makes Alpha Xander more vulnerable than the news of his Beta being poisoned."Rio is still out there, now he could be staging an attack.”Beta Derek muttered before he sips on his coffee and meets my eyes. "That is what I was thinking too and perhaps he is the one responsible for the death of Alpha Xander's Beta. Damn that serpent!”I gritted my teeth, I have already thought about it from the moment the news came. I let out a harsh breath. "What a good way to start the day!"Beta Derek put the cup of coffee back in his saucer. "My apologies your majesty, that you have to be the first one to learn the news."I look at the cup of coffee in m
* Alpha King Vincent *"If only I could go with you, I would have..."I put my index finger on her soft lips to refrain her words from going. We don't have time to waste as instructed by the old wizard of our Kingdom, Maleficus. So before sunset, we must leave and start the journey to the Western region. My hands tremble as I slowly trace the outline of her jaw.Ashley lowered her face but I cup her chin and meet her eyes. "Take care of yourself my love, and if there is anything unusual call Beta Derek immediately. He will stay vigilant and prepared at all times, especially for you."Her eyes got misty just like the dark clouds threatening to rain but before the tears fall to her cheeks I lowered my lips and kiss her. I understand how worried she is about me and it is difficult to see her like this. If only I could promise that this will be the last time that I leave without knowing the date of return however, I cannot comprehend the outcome of the West region given the rule of the y
* Alpha King Vincent *Dark clothes worn by the wolves and complete silence in the air, it is the complete opposite of the last time I visited the West. Gone are the cheerful greetings or the happy faces of the warriors from this region, now it is replaced with a grief-stricken expression on everyone's face."I am honored to have you back with us Alpha King Vincent."His shoulders are stiff, and with his furrowed brows and rough voice, I already know that he doesn't sleep since Beta Kasim die. He is too young to be handling such a difficult circumstance which is why I am here for his support. "I'm so sorry for your loss Alpha Xander, your Beta did not deserve to die."I held out my hand and squeeze his tense shoulders, hopefully, making him feel that I care about them. "You need to get some sleep, now that I am here everyone should take a rest, my warriors and I are going to make the rounds and keep the territory safe."The grateful howl echoed through the air coming from the grievin
* Alpha King Vincent *My eyes did not leave Alex as he moves towards a nearby table with a box of facial tissue on the top. His hands took a couple of the thin white disposable towels and wipe the blood stain on the back of his knuckles. Calib cleared his throat to remind him that I am waiting, Alex disposed of the tissue and bowed his head towards me."I'm sorry your majesty, I was caught up with my interrogation on the last person with Beta Kasim before he died."He moves to the single couch and took a seat near Alex. "That is why I am here, I want to know what the servant told you about the last moments of Beta Kasim.""She won't say a word your majesty, I know that the servant knows something but it seems like she would rather die than spill the names of the ones responsible for the Beta’s death."My gaze turns towards the two warriors of Alpha Xander and notices how their attention was glued toward Alex. I already have a hunched but damn! It would be useless without enough evide
* Luna Ashley *I pace back and forth on the floor of our room creating a noise that everyone could here around me while I look at the door, we keep it open so that I could hear what they were talking about in the office down the hall. Maleficus looks at me with a reassuring gaze, while my mother sit still on the couch beside him."Your majesty, I think this will be over soon. Don't worry about Alpha King Vincent, he is capable of concealing his temper in order not to hurt those humans."I shook my head and watch the door again. "I wanted to be with the meeting but they won't allow me to."My mother smiled at me. "Sweetheart, just let the men do the talking for now. There is a peace treaty that needs to be followed but lately, the rules have been broken by so many humans in the city so maybe they have to make a new set of rules that will be applied to all."I nodded my head. Unlike me, my mother understood the legal process better. "They were talking for quite a long time. I want you
*Alpha King Vincent *"How is she?"The pack doctors smiled at me. "Good morning your majesty, her vitals are good. We are sure that she will wake up soon."I took a deep breath and look at Ashley, she look better now. I notice her rosy cheeks returned their color, she is also breathing normally. It is a good day, I am certain that my Luna will wake up soon.“Thank you for the hard work, you can all get some rest today.""You're welcome, your majesty."They bow to me once more before leaving our bedroom. I move towards the window and open the curtains wide. To let the rays of sunlight get inside is good for Ashley."Good morning your majesty, would you like me to bring you a cup of coffee?"Riza stood at the door of our bedroom asking me with a smile on her face. "Morning Riza, yes please."I heard her footstep descend while I lowered myself on the couch near the bed. My eyes did not leave Ashley, I can feel that she will wake up soon. A few minutes later then Riza came into the room
* Alpha King Vincent *The room is now quiet, as I have instructed all of them to leave. I stay alone watching her laying on our bed, I wanted to kiss her and talk to her. Hear her voice and listen as she whispers the words I longed to hear. I needed her, but she is still weak fighting the poison in her body. My eyes close as I leaned my back on the couch which I place next to our bed.I couldn't take it if she wouldn't wake up, the rage is fueling my fear as I clenched my fist and gritted my teeth. Now my thoughts are on the people who did this to her, the humans! Treacherous humans, I swear to the Moon Goddess if she did not improve I shall end their lives. Their family will suffer my fury and no one can stop me, I am the Alpha King, I will make them pay until the last person with a drop of the same blood in their veins."Beta Derek!" I decided to call my Beta in the mind link and ask him what is the situation in the prison. If I am to go there that old woman will not live to see t
* Alpha King Vincent *With the familiar roads and the trees beside it with the birds chirping as we passed by, I can feel a growing sense of happiness as I remember the land where I come from. I know the warriors with me felt the same. As we have been away for quite a while, most of us missed the familiar grounds more. And there is one person that I miss the most. My Queen Luna of the Royal pack, Ashley. I wanted to surprise her by coming earlier than what was planned."Oh, we're almost there your majesty. It feels like home already."Calib uttered while watching at the window of our vehicle. He is taking the steering wheel while I sat beside him in the front. The air and even the sky is familiar."It feels good to be back. I hope that nothing out of ordinary has happened while I am away."Calib smiled behind the steering wheel. "Maybe no, your majesty. Maleficus and Beta Derek are there so rest assured that everything is in place and the same as how it was when we left."I nodded an
* Ashley *After we succeeded in fighting against our enemies, the wolves in the Palace get busy for the preparation of Alpha King Vincent's arrival. Maleficus have also informed me of the upcoming full wolf moon to conceive an heir to the throne. Alpha King Vincent is an only pup and it will be better if we can have more children with us. There are only two days left and finally, he will come back with all the warriors who joined him on the journey to the West.I was about to get out of the room when my phone ring. There is only one person who calls me in that number, because I rarely use mobile phone. It is my mother. My hand quickly grab the mobile and put it beside my ear."Hello mom?"It's been a while since I last saw her. She must have heard about the travel of the Alpha King away from the Palace."Hi sweetheart, I called to let you know that I am visiting you tomorrow if that's alright? Maybe you are lonely since I heard about the Alpha King Vincent being on travel."The smile
* Alpha King Vincent *I felt his strength and the anger boiling inside his body as Alpha Xander crushed his heart in front of all the warriors and rogues, and before my very eyes. Everyone stared at him and no one dares to move or say anything even I was stunned for a second before I realized that I have to declare that the enemies have no more leader. Rio's eyes turned blank before his body collapsed on the floor creating a loud thud."Rio is dead! Long live Alpha Xander of the West who defended his territory with courage!"I howled loudly, echoing through the lands of the West, declaring our triumph and giving fear to the remaining enemies as they dropped to the ground and whimpered. They surrendered to the warriors of the West and to my warriors which survived."Alpha Xander! Are you alright?"Alex run towards him and hold his shoulders. His hands still hold the heart of Rio, but he crushed it strongly and then held his head high. Just like a brave warrior who won the fight."The
*Alpha King Vincent *"How dare you!"I feel enraged as the meaning of his words reaches my ears. Just when I was about to make a move, shots were fired against us. My reflexes were faster than the bullet when I jump away and dodge a dozen of them being rained down on us."No! You bastard!"The warriors are being hit! As much as I wanted to kill him but I needed to stop the snipers hiding above the trees. I must stop them or my warriors will die against the silver bullets. Damn humans!"Stop shooting you fools!"I have located two snipers above the branches of a tree not far from the place where we encountered Rio and his rogues. My movements are faster than the bullet they fired, for I took one man after the other, and then it makes one left."You are as good as I could remember your majesty! Still the fastest wolf in the land! However not fast enough to save the others!"My eyes turned red as I watch the warriors from the Langston Palace burn in the hit of the silver bullets shot th
*Alpha King Vincent *The air feels different, the winds that blow from the East will past the trees and the tall grasses carrying the scent of flowers and the insects that joins the course of nature. However, it doesn't feel normal anymore. Every day since I arrived in the West, I make it a habit to sit by the balcony and used my heightened sense of smell to get familiarized myself with the scent around me. And now I am certainly aware of the strange scents that mix with the usual scents that I inhale every day.My eyes squinted as I tried to look much closer into the tall trees. Calib who just left to run some errands is still in the mansion, I can feel his footsteps going down the stairs. But before he could leave, I opened the mind link to call him."Calib, come back. I want you to see something."I feel his movements stop and then he walks towards the stairs and back into the door which leads to the balcony. "What is it, your majesty?"His eyes meet mine when I turn around to see
* Luna Ashley *Before the sun bid goodbye to the forest of the Langston Palace and took away the rays of light that it bestowed for the day, Maleficus and Beta Derek decided that we show the enemies our strength. I stood behind them who fought hard to keep me behind the walls of the Palace, however as I challenge Beta Derek to either fight me or we fight together, the old man Maleficus insisted to follow my orders.We have a group of warriors already waiting by the roads so the enemies will be seen even before they enter the borders of the Royal pack. My heart is thumping loudly inside my chest as I am standing with my feet bare and only a house dress on. Hundreds of warriors behind my back and another hundreds in the front. We are all ready to shift and defend the Langston Palace."I hate standing here with you your majesty, waiting for the enemy to approach is not my thing. I should have stayed in the front roads to meet the first enemy who enters our way. This is ridiculous."Bet
