Arya rested her back against the wall when two pairs of hands grabbed her.

She tried to scream, but a cloth was wrapped over her mouth to stifle her cries. They gripped her arms and lifted her off the floor. She felt a sharp pain penetrate her skin, and slowly, she passed out, waking up in a cozy room.

"Where am I?" she asked, looking around and taking in her surroundings. She was lying on a bed.

"Who brought me here? What is going on?" She turned her head from one side to the other, her eyes wide with fear.

"My baby," she gasped, looking down at her bulging stomach. It was still intact. She sighed with relief; she had thought her captors had taken her baby from her.

It was just a few weeks before her due date, which made her stomach churn with anxiety. The idea of her execution crossed her mind, and she felt uneasy.

She gradually stood up from the bed and walked to the door, but it was locked from the outside. She heard voices from outside, like two people having a conversation.

    Arya flinched at a spot when she heard the familiar voice behind her—the voice she hadn't heard for months. She had thought she might have disappeared since she didn't bump into her earlier She turned to see Alice's stern look boring to her. Alice hadn't changed a bit; she was still the same as when Arya left. The same size and same color of hair.Arya squeezed her shaking hand into a ball, hiding it behind her back. She didn't want Alice to notice her nervousness. Arya should be angry at her, ready to take her revenge, which caused her heart rate to increase until she could hear it pounding in her ears.She still felt scared of Alice, even after so many months had passed.Arya wondered if her return to the pack was a blessing or if it would stir up more trouble for her. The voice in her subconscious that usually warned her of impending danger was silent. Now it was just her and her pup, who never ceased kicking in her stomach."I heard you've been rescued. It's good to see you back

    Arya ran a hand through her hair; she couldn't believe what she had just heard.Selena would go to any length to ensure she got what she wanted. Arya never imagined that Sofera would betray her."Get out," she said with a heavy voice."I'm sorry, my lady. I acted on Selena's orders; she took my mother. I couldn't help it." Arya didn't want to hear anymore; she felt utterly betrayed by Sofera's actions."Why did you come here?" Arya asked, her voice tinged with suspicion, knowing that Sofera might not have come to kill her."I ran away from the pack; I was tired of being used by Selena," Sofera said with tears in her eyes."It was you who sent those pictures to me, wasn't it?" Arya asked, raising an eyebrow."Yes, my lady, it was me. When I heard of your punishment, I felt guilty. I had to send those pictures to you so you could defend yourself." Sofera's tears intensified as she left the room.Arya stood transfixed, her hand covering her mouth as she tried to stifle the sobs. It felt

    "Ah Ah ah" Arya screamed further, breathing heavily."What is wrong?" Jasper ran over to her a sense of urgency ran through Jasper who couldn't tell what to do next."Arya hold on, take a deep breath while I call for help" Jasper's face paled with worry. Luna Seraphine looked around, she couldn't tell who the girl crying with so much pain was and she was too weak to help.Jasper came back with guards behind him, they ran to hold Arya side by side. Arya's contraction became more intense, she knew those moments would come but never expected too close. She still has two weeks to go- not in a place filled with so many enemies, she hasn't figured out what to do next.She was skeptical about her child's safety."Take a step" Jasper urges her, as she doubled over, holding her belly, Jasper face paled with worry.

    Damian listened attentively to the guards conversation, his heart began to race. What could Alice be planning? All he heard was Alice leaving through the backdoor to God knows where but there were not many details about what she was going for and where she was going to.It sounds fishy for Alice to leave through the backdoor. Damian went back to the ceremony to confirm his suspension.He peered his eyes at where Alice sat but she was not there, how could she have left without any one notice? He looked through the crowds but Alice wasn't found. His eyes cut through Arya and the tiny pup on her hand.His heart ached, how he wished it was his. He was drawn like a moth to a flame watching both mother and child, forgetting about Alive momentarily.The celebration came to an end, Damian retired back to his room, sleep far from his eyes. He stood at the window listening to the wind rustling through the trees, the silver hues from the moon which casted shadows across the ground.Damian thoug

    "Beta Josh was killed by someone" the private investigator reported to Alpha Jasper."Who are his killers?" I was curious to know who could have killed not just a beta but a childhood friend."He had a camera at the side of his house and at the front of his house. The front camera was blurred and had been tampered with but the side captured someone…" he paused for a while."Captured who?" Jasper asked eagerly."It captured Luna Selena" Jasper was transfixed at a spot his tongue tied. What would Selena be doing at that time of the night at Beta Josh house. He got the shock of his life. "There is one more, which seems fishy " he sat up on his chair narrowing his eyes at Martins. "I couldn't keep track, but something is amidst. Someone was following Luna Selena, it seems the figure was keeping tabs on her, before she walked in the woman on a veil showed up too. It's complicated Alpha" Martins sighed in exhaustion."Get some men together," Jasper ordered."There must be a search, there

    Pov AryaThe rustling of the leaves drew closer, my eyes flashing from one corner to the other. Someone was coming and that someone was creepy.My heart jumped into my heart, occasionally I stirred at my pup who was snoring softly in the arms of the midwife.She wasn't acting as terrified as I was, my senses heightened. I knew something wasn't right yet."Someone is coming" I moved backwards, taking my son into my arms."That should be Alpha Damian" she answered less concerned. I dropped down the bags I held in my hand gripping my pup tightly against my chest. I hope I don't wake her up soon."I can't scent him, this scent is different" she began looking sideways and right. The crippy wave of the wind intensified. It was dim-lit outside, the trees and shrubs looked like shadows that were coming to hunt."We have to run" "Where should we run to? The pack isn't safe" she argued.My neck was moving in a different direction and my eyes narrowed at the direction the noise was coming from

    Alpha Damian gave the baby to the guard while he carried Arya in a bridal style. She was stubborn; she kept shaking her legs to break free, but his grip was stronger.When she finally kept calm, she began to sob silently on his shoulder. Damian couldn't imagine all she had been through. She had no glimmer of what she had gone through or her pregnancy. The only clue he knew was that she fled the day a mob was about to kill her just because she was pregnant. It was prohibited in the pack for a she wolf to get pregnant out of wedlock with no mate. He had rejected her that night.He couldn't tell who the father of the baby was or the reason why Cresmoon accepted her, knowing they were both rival packs.If any insects that flew into Cresmoon weren't sure of survival, Arya survived, with her baby surprising him. Whatever Alice was planning was going to happen the next day, and he had to act fast to be sure Alice wasn't making the wrong decision and luring danger to the pack.She sniffed si

    Alice yawned, blinking her eyes to adjust to the bright light that came through the window.Damian sat at the foot of the bed, whistling. "My Lord," Alice said with her right hand, rubbing her eyes together.She looked down on herself, almost half naked. She sighed and remembered what transpired between the two of them last night."Morning, darling," Damian acknowledged, sitting up and heading to the exit door."I thought we could have another round," Damian grinned. He had to act as innocent as possible."I will be right back, just holding," he said, seeing the smile grace her face.He knows some ways to get to her; he had to distract her through our day and have a close watch over her to know exactly what she was planning. Damian went over to the kitchen, a tray of food in his hands. He hasn't done this for a long time. Alice was going to buy the idea."Hey, dear." Alice grinned with so much joy when she saw a tray of food in Damian's hand."You have to sit up, darling, bacon frie

    Arya stood before the tomb, her body shaking with sobs as she gazed upon the final resting place of her son, Akira. The tomb, reserved for descendants of the alpha lineage, was a poignant reminder of the legacy that had once belonged to her family, but now rested with Damian.Luna Seraphine's gentle touch and soothing words offered little comfort as Arya's grief consumed her. The pain was suffocating, and the realization that she would never see her vibrant, full-of-life son again was a constant, crushing blow.Arya's heart seethed with anger towards Alice and Leo, her cousins who had orchestrated the palace attack. If not for them, Akira would still be alive, safe in her arms. The thought fueled her anguish, and she whispered into the wind, searching for the essence of her deceased parents, who had promised to always be with her.But their spirits seemed distant, and Arya felt only despair. The warmth and love she once knew were now replaced with an unrelenting sorrow. Even with Luna

    The priest ran his hand through his thinning hair and let out an exasperated sigh. "Arya, I really wish there was something we could do. But the laws of our order expressly state that we must not interfere in conflict between brothers of the same kind. The consequences are dire. I'm sorry Arya, but our hands are tied," the man said somberly with his eyes closed.Arya thought to herself and knew there was no use trying to convince the order to go against their traditions. But there had to be a way to salvage the situation and stop her cousins from visiting evil upon the pack and perhaps, the whole earth. Just then, an idea flashed across her mind and she gave it no time to settle well before voicing it out."How about you train me to harness my magic and become powerful enough to stop the enemy. That's not something you cannot do, right?" Arya asked, hiding the pain and anxiety in her voice as she spoke.The priest squinted his eyes, deep in contemplation. He focused on a particular gr

    Damian approached the house with a plastic bag containing their dinner, his eyes scanning the surroundings with a mix of caution and confusion. He had parked the van a few poles back, just as he'd done when he was with Anika, and walked the rest of the way, his senses on high alert. As he moved through the night, he swept his gaze from side to side, high on alert to spot any strange movements, his ears perked up to catch the slightest sound. Not that he expected danger to be lurking around, but one could never be too careful.A sense of foreboding and dread sat in his stomach, and he suddenly felt goosebumps on his skin, a rare occurrence for a Vis Wood like himself. His heart raced slightly faster, and his hand instinctively went to the pocket where he kept his dagger, a habitual gesture that had become second nature to him. These were odd behaviors for his wolf, and he could only wonder what was wrong. The house came into view now, and he looked to the side, ready to cross over th

    The Blood Sisterhood were a secret sect of elite female warriors who paid allegiance to the Luna alone. They were part of the hidden tradition of the pack, a secret passed down from one generation of Luna to the next.Luna Seraphine took a deep breath, gathering her strength. "Sisters, I need you to go and ask for help from the Order of the Sun, the coven Arya's father belonged to during his lifetime. Tell them a daughter of theirs is faced with the threat of death at the hands of wicked people."The forewoman spoke up with a hint of hesitation in her voice. "This thing you ask of us, it totally goes against all that we represent. It is against our ethos to seek help from the witches." She stated gently but firmly.Luna Seraphine's voice came barely audible above a whisper. "Unless you're up for a battle against hell itself, I suggest you do as I have just requested."The woman argued, "We shall fight till death then. Our pride as a group supersedes the need to ask for help from the l

    "There's no chance that would ever work!" the witch cried immediately after Leo told her what he needed her to do. She gently extracted herself from underneath his piercing gaze and walked over to the other side of the room."And why is that?" Leo asked, his voice cold and impatient."You see, the only reason why your sister could call you back up from the underworld was because she had at least a part of your dead corpse. And the head especially, makes things easier. If you don't have her body with you, I'm afraid there's nothing I can do to help," the old witch explained, feigning confidence and busying herself with arranging spices on a shelf in the corner.Leo flashed to her side using his heightened reflexes and hoisted her up in the air by her neck. "I'll go get her body. If you are not here when I return, I will find you, and I will kill you," he threatened through gritted teeth."I'd also have to wait for a full moon," the woman's desperate voice pleaded."I don't care! You'll

    Damian consoled Arya over the loss of her child, but he couldn't seem to comfort her enough. She was a wrecking ball of sobs as she held baby Akira's dead form in her hands, even as Damian held her to his chest. What the bastards they had just killed did to the baby was heartless. Even in death, Akira looked like a beam of peace, his lips and skin now taking on the grayish pallor of death."I wish I had the words, my love," Damian found himself saying into the air, even though he was addressing Arya. It hurt him to see the woman he loved in such a state.Tristan and the other men from the elite command that had come with Damian to rescue his mate stood akimbo around them, at a loss for how to console both their alpha and his mate.Suddenly, Arya let out a loud gasp and began crumbling to the ground, struggling to breathe. Everyone was too stunned to do anything at first, until Damian snapped out of his shock and held her up firmly, struggling to contain both her weight and that of the

    Damian sat in the backseat of the van, lost in thought. He was confident that after asserting his dominance in the Silver Crescent pack, Jasper and his followers wouldn't dare trespass again. He adjusted his new jacket, provided by Tristan, knowing his previous clothes would be ruined after his transformation.As they approached the Ember Moon pack, Damian's keen sense of smell detected something strange. He exchanged a concerned glance with Tristan, who nodded in agreement. "Kill the engines," Damian ordered, and the driver complied without question.Damian jumped out and crept behind the wall, motioning to Tristan to follow. "Break the men into groups," he whispered. "Take the secret side gates scattered around the fence. We need the advantage of surprise." Tristan nodded and relayed the orders to the men, dividing them into four groups to cover the North, East, West, and South wings of the premises.Damian led his group of six, including Tristan, towards the West wing. As they appr

    Arya and Luna Seraphine sat on their seats, their senses on high alert. The sounds were getting closer, and Luna's voice was laced with urgency as she turned to Arya and said, "Quick, go to Akira. I don't like these sounds."Arya's heart sank into her stomach as she remembered her dream and recalled that Akira went missing in the dream. She never found him. If that were to happen now, she'd kill herself. She was sure of it.She ran as fast as her legs could go, her pace fueled by adrenaline. She turned into a side door to climb into a corridor when a body was tossed out of the corridor, and she stopped dead in her tracks. Her wolf instincts, though rarely active, screamed danger. The corpse was dressed in palace guard attire, partially shifted into its wolf form, badly disfigured, with a gaping hole where the left eye should have been and another in the chest.Slowly, she lifted her eyes to look into the corridor where the body was flung from. Her skin crawled at the sight before her.

    Damian strolled into the garden, his eyes scanning the area for his mother and Arya. He recalled his mother inviting Arya to tea the previous night and smiled, remembering the closeness they shared. He had finally made up his mind to sire Jasper's child, and his thoughts were filled with Arya.As he approached the umbrella-shaded table, he beamed with a wide smile. "Top of the morning to you two, beautiful ladies." He kissed his mother's forehead and took Arya's hand, lifting it to his lips. His eyes locked onto hers, and he heard her subtle gasp."Hello, Arya. I trust you slept well?" Arya replied shyly, "Yes, alpha. Thank you."Luna Seraphine playfully rolled her eyes. "Yes, I slept well too, thank you." Damian chuckled and said, "I was going to ask you that, mother." He turned to Arya, his smile lingering.He noticed the tea on the table and teased, "I see you've both decided to have tea without me, then." He picked up his mother's cup, and she protested, "Put that back down, sil
