Relon P.O.V.

Flashback…

"Ador." I looked at him, lying motionless on the bed. His chest rose and fell slowly, the only sign that life still lingered in his body. He was quiet, almost peaceful, but I knew better. The wounds from Alex had left him weak, and the damage from the eclipse's power was too much for even someone as strong as he.

"You really showed us how good of an alpha you are," I whispered, low, not wanting to wake him. "But it's time now."

Erick had just left a few minutes ago in a rush to go attend to the bitten ones: the humans who had no other choice but to join us now. Once bitten, there's no going back. Only pain can be repelled by making them one of us. There's admission into the pack or death-that's the rule. There's no in between.

And then, in an instant, I felt Ador's eyelids flutter open. Slowly, agonizingly, his eyes snapped open.

"R-Relon," he croaked.

I reached forward, bent to hear him. "Ador, I'll get the healer." I started to get up to go for help, but his

    "Alph, now that you're the Alpha of this pack," Trevor began, slouching in the old leather chair. His sharp eyes twinkled with curiosity. "Why not find your mate?”Alph rested his elbows on his knees and looked straight ahead at the flickering flames dancing in the fireplace. The question was innocuous enough, yet somehow it made him ill-at-ease. His jawline tightened a mite as he considered Trevor's words."Can't just find one," Alph said, his voice firm yet detached. "Leave it to destiny."Trevor raised an eyebrow, clearly unimpressed. "Destiny sucks. Finding is the easy way to find one," Martin chimed in from his spot on the couch, tossing a small wooden token between his hands. His playful demeanor didn't mask the truth in his words."Easy isn't always better," Alph whispered, standing up and walking toward the window. He needed space. The air inside the room felt too thick, too stifling from the weight of their carefree conversation, which to him was anything but carefree in any

    Alph's P.O.V The weight of the pack had fallen onto my shoulders for a while now, but today it felt more absurd than usual-it wasn't even the feeling of being the leader of the pack, like all alphas feel something beneath, building up like a storm about to hit. And I was sitting alone in my room when my mind would continually drift to Leo, who had been gone for some time now. His absence gnawed at me, but there was nothing I could do until we found more leads. I had to keep the pack stable and keep the peace.It took a knock on the door to break my concentration."Alpha, Alph, the Shadowskill pack is coming to visit as of today. They are grateful for the restoration of the path to the wolf territory," Erick told me as he entered the room, standing at attention.I nodded, my head only half on the conversation. "Let them be welcome here.""They will be coming in at 8 PM," Erick added before leaving.As the door shut behind him, I felt another set of footsteps, lighter, closer, more fam

    Maxine's P.O.V."You like me, don't you?"Alph's question hung there, charged with tension I wasn't prepared for. We walked into the forest together, without ever deciding which way it was going to be. Destination after destination seemed a moot point; we were alone under moonlight. The world around us fell silent save the rustling of trees and our footsteps crunching against the earth. Not so my mind, however.When did I begin to love him? Memory seems to bleed from around the edges, but it is somewhere around Coreen's birthday party. I didn't know him well then, really all that Alph at university, aloof, mysterious. A stupid dare-she'd made the offer without even thinking about it: kiss Alph. And I kissed him. Everything changed after that.“When I first saw you," I said hardly above a whisper. My voice was so overwhelmed by the wind, which buffeted us around. I could feel the rising color on my cheeks so I was happy that it was dark, and I hid the flushing all over my face. The sil

    Maxine's P.O.V.I didn't know where the pounding of my heart started; it'd pounded from my head down to my toes. We kissed under the moonlight, the heat between us like nothing I'd ever experienced. And yet, every touch, every movement, was making me feel like I'm falling deep into somewhere I never knew existed within me. Alph's hands were everywhere-on my back, on my waist, at my hips-as though trying to hold me close as if space between us wasn't enough.He drew back himself, the planes of his forehead digging into mine as we both breathed hard, our hearts pounding in the same rhythm. His eyes were dark, intense, a look I had never seen on him, as he scoured my eyes for something to say. Without a word, he took my hand and led me back through the forest towards his room.There wasn't much thinking on my part. My brain was wildly racing around in circles, but somehow my body knew where it wanted to go.The pale moonlight streamed into his room, casting a silverish glow, so gently ra

    Maxine closed her eyes and let Alph's lips trace a path from her ear, down her neck, along the delicate column of her throat. His touch was like music; each stroke, each kiss was like a note on the sensitive chords of her body, tuning to pure desire frequency."Alph.," she breathed, her voice a soft sultry caress, "I want this, but I am afraid. Of what this might mean, of what it might change." She was confessing, whispering a prayer, for she knew that what lay ahead was not mere pleasure but a deeper connection.Alph, the mighty alpha, well knew what she was afraid of and not quite certain about. He reached out to take her face in his fingers, both of his paws large and capable, tracing out the jaw from chin to chin with his thumb. He searched in her eyes for comfort. "Maxine, my love, you do not have to be afraid. With me, you will be safe. I will never hurt you. And I promise to show you how deep my love and desire are."His words were like a warm hug, embracing her fears, soothing

    Maxine stretched, enveloped warmly by the sunlight beaming through the curtains. Her eyelids eased open, getting accustomed to the light, and she felt the warmth of Alph lying beside her. Images of the previous night assailed her, a gentle smile claiming her lips. The connection they had strengthened was stronger than ever, but reality soon started to creep into the day.Alph shifted beside her, his breathing regular, though she knew he was already awake. She glanced over at him, seeing half-open eyes looking down at her with that familiar, protective warmth. He traced a finger down her cheek, his touch soft and tender."Good morning," he rumbled, his voice still husky from sleep.Maxine's smile broke over her face as she stretched out her limbs. "Good morning," she whispered, her fingers stroking over his chest before falling away. Her thoughts crept back to the day ahead. "You have a meeting this morning, don't you?"Alph sighed, nodded his head as he glanced toward the clock. "Yes,

    The next morning, Maxine stood, her muscles tense to the limit, in the yard of training, facing Adam-the guy she could usually count on to best her after all these years. The sun just crested, bleeding into the wall-wells early-conditions pleasantly golden fair over the ground, casting long shadows on it. In a normal climate, which she had learned to appreciate through the many years of practice, this would be time for some peace of mind, pushing herself as much as possible while settling down to focus on bettering one's skills alone. Today, however, her thoughts ran elsewhere-distracted and unsteady.Adam put his hands up to his face, getting ready for round two. "Ready?" he asked steadily and calmly as ever.Maxine nodded curtly, bobbing on the balls of her feet as she launched herself into the first hit. Her body remembered the movements well, but her mind was elsewhere.She saw them at the corner of her eye-Alph and Alpha Delton's daughter. It was as they were strolling in the gar

    I was actually trying to distract myself today by training, but my thoughts were drifting back to Alph. For the past week, he had been attending constant meetings with Alpha Delton's daughter, and it was really starting to wear on me. No matter how hard I tried to focus on the punches and techniques Adam was teaching me, my mind was in another place."Maxine!" Adam snapped, and I blinked, realizing I'd thrown a sloppy punch. "Are you even paying attention?""Yes," I replied quickly, squaring my shoulders and resetting my stance. I took a deep breath, trying to clear my head and focus, but it wasn't working. Out of the corner of my eye, I spotted Alph walking through the garden with Delton's daughter. They seemed to be engaged in some apparently casual conversation, but the looks of them together turned my stomach over inside. The daughter of Alpha Delton was sweet-looking, poised, and hell, she was undeniably charming. My heart skipped a beat, literally stopping for an instant; they s

    Thirteen Years Later…."Maxine, your daughter was found in the woods," the messenger said his voice quivering in shock and disbelief. "It's not confirmed yet, but the healer said her blood matches yours. It is … from your bloodline."Maxine froze, the aching ache of longing in her chest now replaced by the flicker of hope that she hadn't felt for years. She had scoured the earth for Hannah, year after year, refusing to let go of hope. The pack continued to move forward, living and thriving, but for Maxine, her heart was suspended in time. Since Hannah was taken from her by Leo, nothing in her life had held the promise of joy ever again.Rededicating herself, Maxine sped off to the healer's chambers. As she entered, her breath caught in her throat. There lay, on the bed, a young woman who resembled she had been taken from the very pages of Maxine's memory—a young Hadzen, her son, at the age that had passed since his own existence. This young woman was carrying his features that so clos

    Hannah P.O.V.It was going to be perfect. Tonight. I wore my white dress. Wildflowers clutched in my hand. The heartbeats in my chest are not from fear but with excitement. It's going to be the beginning of our new life. Now he stood before me at the altar, his face alight with a radiant smile as he looked out at me as if I were his entire world, the small circle of his family smiling warmly to engulf me in a feeling of belonging that, up to now, I had never known."Victor," I panted, barely above a whisper. This was it. We were here finally, about to promise our lives to each other. Away from the craziness, away from the world of packs and politics, we had found a haven within the humans. We could just. exist. Love. Grow.But I could take only one step in his direction when a sound pierced the stillness, like a knife. A heavy thud of paws on earth.

    Days slipped by, going to waste and slipping past one another in that little village where Lenor and her family dwelled. Hannah could see reason in her new life; she curled up in their little house in the warm spots and clutched a blanket she had spotted the first night there - light in scent with a fragrant smell of lavender - which Lenor brought home those aspects of comfort after years of love and care.In those early days, her quiet sobs filled the home, breaking the silence every morning and night. Only Victor, the ten-year-old boy who found her by the riverbank, could sometimes pull her out of her sadness." Hadzen…," she would whisper the name of her brother, softly, as if a fragile yet determined voice; as if saying it may somehow bring him closer: "Hadzen… "Victor would sit there, looking at her with a tearful light of sadness and determination in his eyes. He didn't understand the depth of her pain but could see how much she was hurting, and he wanted to help. After digging

    "Hadzen!"The hysterical voice echoed through the night as Hadzen leapt out of bed his heart pounding. He could hardly see the figure in the darkness on the balcony but he knew he wouldn't mistake that shriek."Hannah!" he yelled jumping to his feet as his twin sister's body was dragged away by a tall, dark figure.Looking over his shoulder, he flashed Hadzen a derisive smile before leaping over the balcony. "Catch you later, Hadzen."He plunged into darkness with Hannah's screams."HANNAH!" Hadzen shouted, sprinting toward the balcony-but she was already gone."Hadzen! Wake up!" his mother cried in a panic, shaking him out of dazed shock.Hadzen blinked, dazed. To his left was his mom, Maxine, crying, her face streaked with tears, scared. His father, Alph, paced around the room, scanning everywhere, up and down."Where's Hannah?" Hadzen stuttered his words, his voice thick with panic. He looked to the bedside he shared with Hannah; she was gone."M-mom. she was here, right next to me

    Five years had passed since then, and the children's laughter was again louder, as Hannah and Hadzen played with their cousin Dylan under the great oak tree in the courtyard of their estate, a warm afternoon spent in sheer energy as the three children ran round the great oak tree in the garden."Hannah! Slow up, wait for me!" he yelled as he chased after her as she plunged toward the tree. He had just been bumped by Tylan, their family friend, and was laughing as he tried to catch up with Hannah who always seemed faster."Catch me if you can, Dylan!" she laughed as her brown curls bounced and she climbed higher into the branches of the tree.Hadzen sat on a nearby bench, with a book in his lap, reading and looked up from his story with a frown. "Hey, don't be so noisy!" he said sternly.Hannah stopped half-way up the tree, looked down to Dylan who stood under, panting. The two looked at each other, their mischievous grins even as they understood each other without words — this was som

    Eight months had passed since the arrival of her twins, Hannah and Hadzen, and the house was full of baby laughter and gentle cooing. Sunbeams streamed through the windows as she sat on the floor playing with Hannah cradled in her arms. "Dada, tell him Dada," Maxine said, nodding towards Alph, who was sitting nearby cuddling their son Hadzen.Hannah's look remained steady, directed up at Alph as her mouth worked on the syllables with a visible effort. "Da-ah," she said, her voice unstable but clear enough to send a shiver down Maxine's spine.Maxine opened her eyes widely in amazement. "Oh my gosh! You spoke!" she squealed, hugging Hannah closer. "That is my baby girl, such a rapid learner!Not to be outdone, Alph grinned and held Hadzen aloft in the air, bouncing him lightly. "Okay, little man, let's show your mom what you've got. Can you say 'Ma-ma'?"`Hadzen was shrieking with laughter as Alph twirled him around, his chubby little hands reaching up toward his dad. Though no words

    There she lay in the bed, her body now enervated but the spirit of her high and big. She could hear the softly crying sounds of her newborns-the twin babies that she had fought hard to bring into this world. They were perfect, tiny, with so much life within them. One boy, one girl. She already decided on the names: Hannah and Hadzen. And as she looked at them there, all rolled up in their cradles, they all seemed like such ordinary babies. Their innocence filled the room, and it was quite impossible to believe that so much danger still surrounded them.Her heart hurts to love and to worry for them. She was a mother now, and truly, she wanted to be able to protect them. However, at the back of her mind is the warning her mother had given her: the curse of the eclipse essence. It still lingers over her, over her family. She needed to know the truth.Coreen, her stepsister, stood in the same room with her maids. She had come to visit as soon as she heard about the birth, but Maxine could

    Miranda paced back and forth in the dimly lit room, her heart racing as she tried to keep her tears from falling. The weight of her decision was suffocating, and her chest tightened with every step she took. She glanced at Erick, her oldest and closest confidant, hoping he might have some way to ease the unbearable pain in her heart. But his face was set, his eyes focused."You know what will happen!" Miranda snapped, her voice breaking under the pressure. "I already told you that! This isn’t just some story or legend. It’s real, Erick."Erick leaned back in his chair, rubbing his temples. "I know, Miranda, I know. But we have to do it anyway. We don’t have many options left.""What options?" Miranda's voice was laced with frustration as she threw her hands into the air. "What way out do you think we have? I don’t want to lose Maxine! She’s the only one I have left." Her voice faltered as her fear took hold. "You know how dangerous it is to have the eclipse essence in one bloodline. I

    Maxine poured milk into a glass, watching it swirl before handing it to Coreen. She looked at her sister’s swollen belly, trying to imagine what it would be like to hold her own child in her arms.“So, you and Trevor?” Maxine asked, raising an eyebrow as she leaned against the counter.Coreen grinned, placing a hand on her round stomach. “I didn’t know I’d fall for that jerk, either,” she admitted with a laugh. “But he’s hot, I’ll give him that.”They both burst into laughter, the sound filling the small kitchen. It felt good to share a moment of levity, especially given how serious everything had become lately.“How many months now?” Maxine asked, her gaze flickering to Coreen’s belly as she took a sip from her own glass.“Eight,” Coreen replied, her voice casual despite the significance. “It all started after that one wild night, and well… it just kept going from there.”Maxine shook her head, smiling. “So, you’re about a month ahead of me, huh?
