Arielle’s POV:

The dinner had been... interesting, to say the least.

Not in a bad way though; just that, I had never laughed that hard in my life before.

Once again, I arrived right on time for dinner - this time, I didn’t even get lost. And for someone bad with directions, it was a boon for me to get there without having to stop and wonder if I was going down the right road or worse, ask someone who was rude and insensitive the directions to my destination.

But dinner had been fun in so many other ways - for one, Alpha Richard had been in attendance. Darren has mentioned it being a sort of replacement ‘welcome to the pack’ dinner thy should have happened the first time around - but the Alpha has been unavailable.

When I first agreed to the dinner, a part of me had thought that with the Alpha being in attendance, I would be unable to open up and probably just sit at the table and not say anything, and be the shy wallflower that I was when I was much younger.

But that was certainly not

    Richard’s POV:I held her waist, looking into her surprised blue eyes. Why did holding her feel this wonderful? Why was I thinking of leaning in and linking her lips with mine?Why was Arielle doing his to me?What was she doing to me?Why was she the only one I knew who could ever make me feel this way? I was not inexperienced with women, not had I ever met a woman that would ever make me confused such as Arielle was doing to me right then. I had no idea what to do with her. She was the most infuriating woman I had ever met, because somehow she had the ability to stir up feelings where there used to be none.But I had to push her away, or at least keep her at arms length until I could figure out why she was the only one capable of making me feel this way.I needed to know why this doctor was always invading my thoughts, my mind.I blinked slowly, trying my hardest to focus and let go of her.Finally, I managed to say, “Ypu should be on your way inside, Arielle.

    Richard’s POV:It being the day before the full moon party, there was a lot of things that was needed joe me to sign off on before the preparations could be in full swing. I started with those tasks first and then moved on to the ones less pertinent afterwards.I spent most of the day in my study, not paying attention to any knocks that came on the door. If it was urgent, I would have felt it, and o was sure that Darren, the ever capable Beta and my best friend, would handle any issue brought to him with the wisdom and charisma that he always hadI trusted him to handle whatever would come his way, and his judgement on whether or not I would need to step in was always superb.However I would refrain from telling him that, because he always had a big head whenever he would get praised. Although, I did appreciate the way he handled his Beta duties, giving me a lot of time to focus on the most important work for the pack.By the time that the sun had set and night time had arrived, I had

    Arielle’s POV:I woke up early, unlike most of the pack that day. Everyone was up late last night preparing for today, which was the full moon. I suspected Beta Darren and Alpha Richard had the bulkiest of works to take on today. From what I heard, there would be at least two packs visiting with their delegates for the day.I had already decided to not go to work. I had too much work still leftover from my time at the Rogues to finish, that had piled up in my absence. I don’t think that I would have the luxury of time if I didn’t attempt to finish it today.As I dressed up to go on the morning run that Lilian suggested I use to condition my body, I thought if he last time I saw Alpha Richard. It was the previous day and I had accidentally bumped into him. Actually, scratch that. I nearly bowled him over as I tried to keep myself running and breathing well. I had not run in so long.The truth was, being a medical student in advanced learning program, a lot of things that normal student

    Arielle’s POV:I felt my the strain of my weight upon my shaking legs, and soon enough, my knees buckled and I fell to the ground. I was sweaty, panting and tired.Yet to my consternation and despair, Lilian had yet to break a sweat.“Let’s stop here for today,” she finally said, making me feel the sweetest bliss of relief run through my body.“Thank the goddess,” I managed to say, as I watched my friend and warrior of the pack approach me and lower her hand to me so that I could take a hold of it and pull myself up.With a grunt and gasp - man, my body really hurt - I stood up, stumbling a little as I tried to catch my breath. “This training thing is harder than I thought it would be.”She let out a short burst of laughter, shaking her head at me.“Don’t worry,” she consoled me. “The hard part is always the beginning. After a while it gets better and better...”“I don’t feel like it would ever get better,” I whined, walking through the training grounds and casting my eyes around the

    Questions and RealizationsArielle’s POV: I was unable to think properly, and I was sure that Lilian had noticed my absentmindedness a long time ago, but she must have dismissed it as fatigue caused by the training. Thankfully, I was able to use that excuse to part ways with her, and she bade me goodbye stab intersection leading to our separate places. Inside my chest, I felt how the pack bond bloomed in my chest, increasing and waning with equal levels of warmth each time. The pack bond seemed to be active somehow, I noted with my science/inclined observation. I still had no idea what might have caused this, but I needed to at least try and figure it out. Without a word to my assistant, I went up the stairs and entered my suite, moving to the bookshelves now filled with the books I had brought with me to the Redding Pack when I had first arrived. I needed to research on what is causing me this pain in my pack bond, and what I suspect had caused me to heal that boy from this mo

    Meeting the EldersRichard’s POV:I was so damn tired by the time I reached home, entering into the pack compound. I felt the bond a lot in my chest like I was once more at peace - I was home, finally.It had been two days since I left the pack, on an impromptu mission, as I had informed Darren. Sometimes, I thought wearily, the life of an Alpha weighed down on me, and was too deeply ingrained in me. Instead of resting up after the night of the full moon festival, I had immediately gotten up early the next morning to prepare my things to leave for the next two days. Darren had to see off the delegates from the two packs that attended the festival in my place.I frowned even deeper as I thought about the events of the full moon festival. I still had something weighing down on me apart from my inability to have some rest - my mate bond had been activated.After so long , I had finally found my mate.I felt it that night after I transformed, like someone was calling out to me and pulling

    Richard’s POV:After that long meeting I had with the Pack Elders, I was already feeling the most drained that I had ever been in my life. However, I had to straighten myself up and keep on going.Because I knew without a single doubt that Darren would be waiting for me in my study. He would report to me on the goings on of the pack while I was away, and any urgent mayters that he had to attend to in my absence.That was our usual routine after I got back from a mission, and now I was mentally prepared for wherever he had to say. After all, I had not only asked him to do a few specific things for me as well. Therefore I was definitely not surprised when I opened the door of my study and found my friend sitting in the couch to the side.“Hey, man,” he greeted me while standing up. “How did the meeting with the Elders go?”I let out a groan as I moved towards the bar where I had a half-finished bottle of whiskey.

    Meeting ContinuedRichard’s POV:Darren huffed, and I saw him cross his arms over his chest, before speaking.“Well, since you’re so insistent on knowing,” he began with a joking tone before his expression turned serious. “I wanted to know what you thought about Arielle and Leon.” I cocked a brow at him, confused at his question. “You now know that they used to be mates. Or at least, according to Arielle, before he then rejected her. What do you think about that?”I then understood what he was asking.“You want to know if that has changed my opinion of her,” I stated rather than asked, and he nodded at me.I frowned down at my hands clasped in the desk, trying to figure out the words to at in response. In fact, how could I even explain how I actually felt? Would Darren understand?“To be honest, I don’t really know,” I slowly began, only for my best friend and Beta to snort out loud.“Come on, Richard. We both know that it’s bullshit. You care much more than you think you do,” Darren

My breath caught in my throat as I pressed against the wall he had roughly pushed me into in a rage after he had caught I and Jake in the act of canoodling. He roared in fury as he bore down on Jake. I could understand why he was so enraged. Jake was the Alpha of the Moonlight pack, and my father was the Alpha of our pack, the Wesselton Pack. Both our packs have been in a bloody feud for so long that no one even remembered how it started in the first place. Countless wolves from both packs had died for generations over this feud. And Jake was about to be the next person. “My daughter!” My father growled at him. "How dare you!" My heart galloped with panic as I stared at the scene in front of me. My father in a state of half-shift, his clothes already partly torn from it. Jake, pinned below him, his eyes filled with so much fear and shock as he

CHAPTER ONE A knock on the door disrupted her sleep, causing her brows to crease as she rolled to the other side of the bed. She scrunched her eyes up, trying to get back to her sleep when another series of knocking came after. “Hmm.” She groaned out, her hand fumbling on the bed as she reached for the blanket, throwing it over herself and acting cozy inside of it. “You have to open the door princess,” she heard her maid say from the door, causing the frown on her face to deepen.

The death of Leon had caused an immediate and drastic drop in morale. The Rogues didn’t fight anymore, allowing themselves to be chained.Among them, were the Evans family too. They had been brought out by the warriors as per my orders.The night was still as I stood in the center of such chaos.I never knew silence could be quite this deafening.“The battle is over,” I said, looking around me with steely eyes to my tired warriors, but still victorious. I felt satisfaction in seeing all the familiar faces around me. Not many of them fell, to my joy. “We will dispose of the traitors today and rebuild our pack. This victory isn’t anything but a symbol of our strength, and our unity. For in our unity,” I rolled my shoulders back and raised my voice even louder. “We will never fall.”The cheers of my warriors were enough to dare me, and

    “No! No! Father, you can’t do this to me! You can’t do this!” A tiny voice cried out, her voice echoing through the four corners of the room.“Stand up!” A loud voice boomed through her ears and ran through her body, causing her to hold her tears.He stood up from his throne, all tall and authoritative. The royal staff in his hand touched the ground and silenced everyone in the room. He studied his steps casually, walking towards her and sending streams of shivers down her spine.“Stand up!” He ordered.She didn’t need to be told twice. She scrambled up immediately, balancing her feet and lowering her head to the ground. He raised his hand to her, and she recoiled at the thought of him hitting her head, “Stacey, you’re nothing but a weak wolf. And your presence in this pack is not needed. I regret the day I gave birth to you. And today is one of my happiest days in this pack, to finally see that you have a use for me.” He said without mercy.She clenched her fist so hard her nails pie

You’re going to be fine,” my voice broke.Tears came to my eyes as I continued to step forward. Just one step forward I told myself.Oh great goddess, please help me. A tear slipped down my cheek as I thought of what Lilian would say to me if she saw her mate like this. I couldn’t do this to her. Please Darren be alright, i pleaded in my mind.“Arielle?” It was Ethan@/ voice that made me look up. Our eyes met and I felt small as he ran over to me, his own eyes wide with shock. “What happened to him?”“What do you think?” My voice sounded bitter and rough as I responded.

    Richard’s POV:I was running with fury at the forefront of my mind.I was such an idiot. I had made so much mistakes in the past few days.Now I had made the worst mistake.I had left my pack alone, at such an important time. Now they were being attacked.“Two of you go to the west gate and see what’s happening,” I ordered two of the swiftest warriors in my team.They nodded in unison and were off. We kept on going on our journey, and I began to feel dizzy for a second.At once I felt a burning sensation in my throat, as well as a sting on my arm. Then, a slash at my throat. My hands flew to check my Throat and found it unblemished.I was feeling the pain from my pack members.‘and it was a lot. I know fact, it was too much.I groaned out loud, trying to not let my sounds of pain get heard by anyone.

The alarm bells blares in my ears like a war gong, and I was left feeling helpless and lost.In reality, I was still in my office, with Meera looking meekly away from the glares of either myself or Ethan.Richard’s words came through the mind link that we shared.‘What’s going on, love? And I’m on my way. It was a trap,’ he sounded regretful, and there was a tinge of disgust punctuating his words. What had happened to make him sound like that?‘A trap?’ So this had all been planned.‘Elise and Hunter are working with the Rogues. They’re working with Leon. I think he may be on his way there now,’ he sounded like he was running while he spoke.I swallowed, the anxiety coming back in droves. Oh great goddess.In a shaky tone I replied to my mate, ‘I think he’s here right now. The alarm bells have been going off for nearly thirty minutes now.’ I paused. ‘What should

    Richard’s POV:We made our way through the shortcut that Falcon had proposed.Darren and I had quickly met with him when the team was put together, and we had decided that we would be taking that route. I didn’t think that it was certainly a trap or anything but it didn’t hurt to be prepared and use the element of surprise on our side.However much I wanted to believe that things would go smoothly with Elise and Hunter, some part of me knew that it was somehow doomed from the start. Of course I couldn’t just come out and say thy to everyone, so I kept silent. I think it was my serious expression that gave away that I was brooding, for none of my men spoke to me or questioned me at any point in time.Luckily for us that was what saved us. We were near the presumed location of Elise and Hunter and the sun was shining brightly in the sky.I heard a twig snap and my ears picked up at the sound of it.
