Clayton, after giving Amarah one last kiss, finally watch as she went up the steps towards the Healing Center. He stayed by his car for a few minutes and watched as she stopped from time to time to greet and talk with the members. He also noticed that she has a soft spot for children, who would immediately run towards her when they will see her.
They will then look inside her bag for the sweets she always had ready for them. Although there are still some members who are still quite hesitant accepting her as the Luna of the pack, Clayton knew in time she will be able to win their loyalty and affection. Most especially the elders, who always had believed that a Luna with no wolf will not make the union strong because one has something missing.
He went back to his side of the car and was about to go in to drive towards his office at the pack house when his mind was suddenly intruded.
“Well done, my brother,” Conrad linked with him snidely. “Word is going around
Hello, dear readers! Hope you are all doing well wherever you are. I would like to request if you can be able to rate my book so that it can attract more subscribers. Your gem donation would also mean so much for me. Thank you and take care always!
Amarah after finally making sure that she had completely done all her tasks for the day, locked her drawer and stood up from her chair, reaching for her bag. It was late in the afternoon before she called it a day since she attended to a twelve-year-old boy that had an accident before her shift ends, who broke his leg because of a stunt that he pulled to show off to a girl, he has a crush on.“Hey.”She looked up after closing her small office and saw Matt, going out from his as well. Lily is beside him, who is positively glowing and with one of her hands gently resting on the small bump that is protruding underneath her dress.“Hey, guys,” Amarah greeted as she walked towards them. “How’s my godchild doing?”“Demanding,” Lily answered with a smile. “By the time he’s coming out, I might already be looking like a popcorn from all the food that he’s letting me crave. You want to join us
Clayton handed several folders to Liam after signing them on a late Tuesday morning. He then reached for another set of documents in front of his table and scanned through the document placed on top. He read silently as the document contains new batch of pack members that will join the Transformation Ceremony.“Shall we postpone the ceremony, Alpha?” Liam asked seriously.“Why will we?” Clayton asked calmly. “I see no conflict with the schedule we have, and all participants are looking forward to it.”Liam looked at him uneasily.“We got word that the Grand Alpha is not doing well,” he finally answered.“The ceremony, I’m pretty sure can push through in the absence of the Grand Alpha,” Clayton commented seriously as he looked back at the paper and reading through the number of participants. “The pack already has its Luna, so in a way, the ceremony is complete with the prominent
Erika quietly accepted the meal she pointed at the Omega wolf behind the counter and placed it on her tray the following day after getting off her midnight shift. She slid her tray along the line and then requested for a bottle of apple juice before finally paying for her meal.She then proceeded to her usual table at the back part of the mess hall, beside a large window where she has a view of the practice field below. She gripped her fist tightly when she saw Amarah walking towards Clayton and reached for his arm immediately.Bitch, she thought angrily as she gripped the knife that she is holding.She continued to watch them with anger in her eyes until they disappeared as they turned towards the corner of the structure. She stabbed the chicken with her fork and run the knife through it angrily.Losing her appetite, she stood up and threw her meal at the bin, heading out of the pack house. She ignored all the greetings thrown her way as she made her way
Amarah made sure that she secured the elastic bandage around the Omega member that met an accident inside the pack’s main kitchen the following day in the afternoon. She gently assisted the arm down the lap of the woman and smiled at her gently.“Please don’t wet it for a while until the wound closes up,” she instructed patiently as she then prepared some medicines for her. “And I want you to come back every three days for me to dress that wound and change the bandage.”“I don’t want to take up your time, Luna,” Allison, the Omega member said, hanging her head low. “I can request help from my fellow Omegas.”“You are not taking up my time, Allison,” Amarah assured gently with a smile. She handed her a piece of paper and a small brown bag of her medicines. “I want to make sure that we are taking good care of your wound. Now, here’s the list of the medicine that I want you to
Clayton pulled out a chair for Amarah and waited for her to take her seat before he sat on the chair beside her. He reached out and squeezed her hand gently on her lap under the table.It was the night that the two of them went to dinner at the Harmon’s. He remembered well when Amarah brought the subject up to him after they got home and she started preparing their dinner upon her insistence that she will be doing it since he got out from the medical center. Amarah informed him that she treated Erika after sustaining an injury during practice.He had heard about the incident since he always made sure that any injuries should be immediately reported to him.Amarah had told him that Erika needed some weeks to let her injury recover and that’s when she told him about the dinner invitation.“Well, there’s no harm in accepting it,” he commented calmly. He looked at her as she was washing some salad greens in the faucet. “Are
Amarah abruptly turned and swallowed a scream when she felt someone putting an arm around her shoulders. She stopped herself from throwing a punch when she realized that it was Matt with Lily behind him. She was lounging around a secluded area by the river, contemplating her thoughts.Matt was looking at her with a curious look and removed his arm around her.“Are you alright?” He asked intently. He studied her carefully, looking at her up and down and staying a bit longer on her face. “You looked quite alarmed. Are you getting enough sleep, Arah? You have dark circles under your eyes.”She nodded as she swallowed slowly.“Yes, I’m okay,” Amarah answered slowly as she fixed herself up. She stared at Lily, who’s stomach in pushing out more with the baby she’s carrying. She smiled at her. “Are you, two going for a walk? It’s best not to overdo.”Matt gave her a tiring look.
Erika let out a vindictive and sly smile when she saw Clayton far from her, in a bad mood the following day. She stayed where she is and saw him punched a concrete wall hardly and then walked away. Making sure that she stays out of his eyesight and her scent to be picked up, she discreetly followed behind him.She knew that Clayton was linking with Amarah but apparently, his link was not answered.She knew that the tonic had work when she managed to bump into Amarah four days after they had dinner at her parents’ house. One look at Amarah’s face clearly showed that Clayton and his wolf, Kragen had succumbed to the effects of The Nasty Passion that Conrad had their pack’s apothecary made.Erika recalled showing some concern to Amarah but the b1tch only told her that she’s staying up late catering to some personal things and thanked her for the concern. As the Luna walk away, Erika only laughs at the ploy she was able to pull off.Pe
Amarah with her heart breaking into countless little pieces, made her up from the river of her favorite spot. With her eyes blurry from the thick tears streaming down her face, she tumbled down and slid down the stair path. She felt a searing pain on her legs, but it isn’t painful enough to overpower what her heart is feeling.As expected, after having dinner at the McAllister’s house last night, Clayton took her roughly the moment he had locked the main door of his house. She knew that he was mad at her as she evaded him for a few hours with the way he was gripping her wrist. He didn’t even bother of going to his bedroom, taking her on the living room floor. Once he was done on the first, he carried her to his room, threw her on the bed and let Kragen took control for the next two rounds. His wolf never held himself back and Amarah felt her body bruised and battered after he rolled off her. Sensing that tiredness in her, Clayton this time used his tongue in
Three years later… Clayton watched anxiously as Amarah breathed in and out as she is clutching his hand tightly on a very early Thursday morning in their room, at his house. He watched as she closed her eyes and tried to control the pain that she is going through right now. “Oh, God, that’s worst,” Amarah finally stated. “You also said the last one was worst,” Clayton countered as he wiped the beads of perspiration on her forehead. “Are you just trying to pacify me? It’s not working, I’m telling you that.” “You’re the one who put this on me,” Amarah teased him with a smile. Clayton stared at her dumbfoundedly. “Amarah, if I knew that I will be going through this as well, I would have waited a little bit more before putting that child in you,” he argued lightly. “I am not ready to go through this process.” That earned a laugh from Matt, who is sitting on one side of the room and patiently monitoring Amarah’s condition. Clayton gave him a good glare. He turned back to his wife, w
“Open your eyes, Amarah.”Amarah opened her eyes and turned towards the voice. She slowly sat up and came face to face with the most beautiful woman she had ever seen in her life.The woman looking back at her has long and thick blond hair that is way past her waist. She had clear and bright honey-gold eyes that are currently staring at her lovingly that goes perfectly well with her beautiful face. A long and pointed nose, round firm cheeks and full rosy lips.She is wearing a glittery silver floor length dress and there is something about her that made Amarah realized who she is staring at.“Oh my goodness!” Amarah exclaimed and she immediately got down on one knee on the floor and placed a fist on her heart. “My apologies for not recognizing you immediately, Goddess Selene.”“You did good, my child,” Selene said.Amarah raised her face towards her when the goddess cupped her chin. She smiled sadly. “I could have done more,” she answered softly. “But I guess I overexerted myself that
Clayton with thick tears in his eyes stood, clenching his fists tightly and watched as the fire slowly crawled up and make its way to Amarah, immediately surrounding her body. He breathed out heavily and felt his mother’s hand on his back, gently comforting him.I love you, my Amarah, he thought in his mind intently.Slowly, as if his own feet have their own brain, he took steps towards the platform until he is only a few feet away. His mother followed behind him and stayed behind his back as the heat being emitted from the fire increases.As the fire started to crawl over her body, he felt a strong gust of wind blowing at them. His mother hugged his arm and buried her face in his back until it subsided. He turned to make sure that she is okay before looking back at the fire.Another gust of wind strongly passed by and it passed directly through the fire.“What the heck -?!” He heard Gabriel from behind exclaimed.All of a sudden, out of nowhere, a strong and blinding light shot down
Gabriel, with his hands inside the pockets of his jacket stared down quietly and intently at Catherine’s tomb. His eyes wandered towards the words written on her white, marble epitaph and he gripped his fists tightly. “Life is not Forever. But LOVE is.” He glanced up a bit when he heard a howl in the air, signifying the end of the mourning period. For Amarah. Instead of the tradition’s usual five days of mourning, King Atticus had decreed that the observation of mourning for Amarah will be extended for two more days. This is because of the influx of wolves from all over the kingdom that wanted to pay their last respects to the Saville woman, who had unselfishly given her all to treat those who needed her help. And it has been seven days as well that Gabriel has been visiting his mate’s tomb and would just stand there for hours without saying anything. Gabriel heard some rustling behind and he raised his head up and waited. “Everyone’s starting to gather at the grounds,” Conrad i
Amarah stared up at the ceiling, breathing slowly and deeply. She turned weakly at the sound of the door opening and as hard it is for her, her lips raised upwards into a smile when she saw Clayton entering the room.“H-Hey,” she called out, raising her hand.Clayton immediately went to her side and clasped her hand, bringing it to his lips and kissing it gently. He sat down on the chair by the bed and looked at her lovingly, his eyes red.“You… You look beautiful,” Clayton said achingly.“Thank you,” she whispered. She coughed lightly and then took a deep breath. “Matt said… Matt said that I’m going to be okay. He told me that I just needed to rest so I can recover all the strength that I had lost.”“You shouldn’t have worked hard,” Clayton only whispered.Amarah reached for his cheek with her other hand.“I-I’m sorry,” she apologized gently. “But I did w-what I needed to do. They need my help.”Clayton clutched both of her hands gently.“W-What time is it?” She whispered softly.“It
The howling roar of rage filled the air as Clayton rushed towards Amarah, catching her in his arms before she had completely hit the ground. His eyes burned with anger and fear as blood started to soak her clothing.Conrad, shocked at what had just happened turned towards the direction and when he saw Anthony Madison, with a triumphant smile on his face, transformed immediately to Magnus and lunged towards him, pinning him on the ground and another fight had ensued. The pack members vacated the area, pulling away any injured warriors.They could hear Magnus growling and tearing the enemy apart and a few minutes later, several Gamma warriors had joined him.“Amarah!” Clayton yelled as he reached for the dagger, which he knew for sure has been dipped in Wolfsbane. “No! No! No!”“Clayton, don’t pull it out!” Jacklyn yelled as she knelt beside him. “Let me do it!”“Stay awake, Amarah,” Clayton stated over and over again as he adjusted his position so that Amarah is lying straight in his a
Clayton watched grimly as the fire consumed the dead bodies of all rogues, the orange flames snaking all over the bodies and omitting the smell of burnt skin, hair and blood. He looked up as three more bodies were added to the pile.“Are the bodies of Fullerton and Madison found?” Clayton asked hardly.“Not yet,” Liam answered. “Gab and the Quartermasters are doing the search as well. If they’re still alive, they will immediately eliminate them.”“Their actions just showed the cowardice in them,” Clayton barked angrily. He turned to his left and looked down at Conrad, leaning on a tree and panting heavily as Bradley and Jacob are tying up a clothing around his stomach. “We need to get you back home.”“I’m alright,” Conrad assured him as he finally stood up. He thumped Clayton on the back. “We need to make sure that those two are dead. We cannot be complacent.”“You were good out there,” Clayton commented seriously. “Seems your five years away from here seemed to have made your skills
Amarah opened her tired and heavy eyes when she heard a howl, more like a battle cry in the air. She immediately sat up straight and then stood up immediately when another sound came. She rushed out the office she occupied to rest for a while, her heart pounding.“What’s happening?!” She demanded loudly as she saw the wolves in the center that are strong enough to check, crowding towards the entrance of the building. She pushed her way in the crowd, her eyes straining to see what they are all looking at. “What’s going out there? Is it Clayton? Please don’t tell me it’s him!”When she finally made her way at front, she saw Matt together with Mr. and Mrs. Langston, several steps outside and looking towards one direction, his face grim. Something caught Amarah’s nose and she looked up to see dark, clouds of smoke filling the air as well as hues of dark yellow and orange.Dead bodies, she thought immediately as the sky turned more darker as the fire from afar is getting bigger and spreadi
Clayton transformed back into his human self after Kragen mercilessly ended the life of the rogue that launched at him a few minutes ago. He grabbed his dagger from the ground and immediately hurled it towards the rogue who is sneaking behind Liam.Liam turned and nodded at him thankfully as he pulled the dagger from the rogue’s head, kicking him back to the ground immediately. He handed the weapon back to Clayton.“The Saville’s had broken their inner defense circle,” Liam mentioned to him as they both thwarted a pack of rogues lunging towards them. He spit on the dead body of one. “Bradley was sent to the center a few minutes ago to have the wound on his side tended.”The battle had spread out all over the land as Clayton’s allied packs took each rogue packs to different directions to weaken the defense. He looked onwards and saw Ian Fullerton and his Beta, moving back and allowing the rogues to attack head on.“Cowards!!!” Clayton yelled at them loudly.Anthony Madison heard his sc
