Pale, lifeless bodies that once possessed the lively glow of happiness and festive celebration were carefully heaved out of the Brookers' home. An invisible but palpable cloud of gloom and peril seemed to hover above the Silver Moon's territory. Even the sun seemed to mourn the loss of the Silver moon, as the morning was densely cloudy but without rain.Horses and carriages of the Alpha and his guards were all lined up outside the Brookers' home. Inside the building were desperately loyal omegas doing the bidding of their superiors. They mumbled inaudible words, one to the other, as they went around the building, checking for anything that still breathed.The stench of the dead bodies and the blood subsided gradually as each body was lined up outside in front of the building, one beside the other."Check for any survivors." Although Alpha Richard doubted there would be any. The command seemed he just wanted to make sure, as the two men scurried upstairs.Everyone could only wonder how

Lucian stood stoically before the window, gazing at the inky blackness of the night sky. The chill of the night air brushed against his skin like icy fingers, while the silence of the forest was broken only by the occasional howl of a lone wolf.Behind him, his aide's voice echoed through the chamber like the hiss of a viper, but Lucian remained unmoved, his back turned, a silent symbol of his resolute determination."Are you seriously going to do this?" Carlyle retorted, his voice tinged with frustration. "We all remember what happened with the last stray we took in. We can't afford to make the same mistake twice."Carlyle was way more than Lucian's assistant. He was his only trusted friend, more like a brother. They'd risen together as mere betas and had masterminded several conquests within the years.Lucian's eyes glimmered with an intense passion as he spoke, his voice thick with emotion. It was like a gust of wind blowing through a dense forest, clearing the path ahead. The whol

"Thank you," Anna spoke as she received her dress from the young lady. It was in no state to be worn. The girl took a slight bow and was about to leave. She seemed to be a year or two years younger than Anna. She'd barely made eye contact the whole time. "What's your name?" Anna enquired. It was bound to be a painful process getting used to her new social environment. Though she hadn't entirely decided to stay, it wouldn't hurt to know the people around her for the time being. "Barbara." She seemed a bit surprised that Anna was asking. Anna expected her to reciprocate, but she understood that it would take a while for her to settle in. "Thank you, Barbara." Barbara nodded and left the tent. Anna sighed at her failed attempt at socializing. She took up the dress and scuffled through till she got to the bust. She reached her right index and middle fingers into the compartment in between, where she had put the paper her father had given her. 'For the love of...' she searched as her

The sun was smiling rather unusually over Lock Heart territory. The previous days of rain made that sunny morning seem a bit out of place. Anna got out of her tent with a slight sense of optimism, which she was sure came with the sun rays that bathed her as she stood at the entrance of her tent, unsure where to turn and where not to.She watched as the camp-like territory of the Lock Heart was already buzzing with activity and the chatters of children, all bright-eyed and bubbling with a seeming excitement that Anna couldn't quite grasp. The sight of them brought back a lot of memories, which she desperately repressed.With a seeming determination not to waste the new energy the brightness of the day had brought, she began walking aimlessly down the straight path between the tents.Walking from within, the Lock Heart's territory seemed just to be an area of land with tents and structures littered all over. As she continued walking, the arrangement became much clearer to her. The metic

Horace fumed, although he dared not express the full weight of it. "We could have at least kept one of them alive. That could have been our best chance at getting to know what our enemies were up to."Lucian was indifferent to his words, seated in his usual armchair, facing the window of his room, which opened to the enchanting night view of the rest of the territory, as the words of his complaining soldier went on and on about his rage-driven act of decapitating the spies.He felt a bit bad for letting his rage gain the upper hand in the heat of the moment. But at the same time, he chose to feel no regrets. It felt like he had literally turned his back on the world."If they're really after us, they'll strike again." He finally spoke after absorbing all Horace said about his wrongdoings. "We'll be better prepared by then." Lucian struggled to make sense of his own words. But he knew they couldn't dispute. That also made him feel bad."But that's not good enough. We don't know how the

"No!" Anna screamed herself awake, gasping for breath as if she had just surfaced from the depths of an ocean. The nightmare had been a suffocating net, tangling her mind and pulling her into the depths of despair. She'd had the same dream of witches surrounding her—it was as if the witches from her dream had followed her into the real world, casting their dark spells on her. Anna's heart raced as she tried to steady her breath. The nightmare had felt so real, and the fear still lingered within her. She sat up in bed, feeling the cold sweat on her forehead. It took her a few minutes to realize that it had only been a dream. But the fear wouldn't leave her. It stayed like a dark cloud looming over her, suffocating her. She held the emerald pendant tightly in her fingers, trying to find some comfort in its weight. There were no signs of daylight outside the tent. She probably had a couple more hours before daylight. "In the morning." The grimness of Lucian's words still echoed in the

Anna was finally getting close to Lucian's quarters. She had always suspected it to be that one-story structure a few meters from the rest of the territory, and her suspicions had proven to be true. She could already envisage the type of solitary life that the Alpha lived up there. It was the only structure that stood out from the others.She'd been trailing Carlyle for a few minutes without breathing a single word. His stern look seemed to be an act he was in a hurry to put away as soon as his time with her was over. He appeared to be carrying out Lucian's orders against his own wishes. He walked at a moderate speed and hadn't looked back for a split second to have at least made sure she was actually following.After some minutes, they arrived at the doors to the building, which had neither fences nor gates. With a slight tap on the door, the pair flung it open; it had been opened from the inside in a smooth motion.They both entered the dimly lit interior, shutting out the cold morn

"Do you think that she'll be able to pull through?" Carlyle stated bluntly, stealing a glance at Lucian's facial demeanor. "I doubt she's ready for this. She seems too young." "She's doing just fine," Lucian reassured himself, though it was just sheer hope he held on to. He just hoped that Anna wouldn't give up on him soon, or he'd face the hell of Carlyle's accusative "I told you so" statements. "Barbara was much younger." "You know Barbara is a special kind." Carlyle proposed. He wasn't the kind to easily give up an argument so soon. "So, is this one?" I hope you are, Anna. Lucian wondered why he was so quick to take Anna's side. "Barbara was the procreational progeny of two alphas, though she's unaware of that." Carlyle pressed on, making his points as straightforward as possible. Neither was ready to admit defeat in their calm, phlegmatic argument. What a way to put it, Carlyle. Lucian couldn't argue the facts, but within himself, he objected to those facts. His belief in Anna

“Oh sorry… I didn't know you both were here,” Elsa fumed out of the room, in anger, although she didn't show it outwardly. She had left the letter on the table before storming out of the room.“I've had enough,” she roared at her wolf. “I cannot keep up with trying to be nice to Anna while I watch Lucian slip out of my hands. You see how badly your plan had failed, Audra?”“Calm down,” Audra retorted. “You were not meant to walk in on that moment, in the first place. Just calm down.”“I'm done with calming down and taking things lightly,” Elsa snapped back at her, as she slammed her door shut behind her. “I'm going to make it happen my own way.” She sighed as she threw herself on her bed. “One more fake smile and I might just lose it already.”“I understand your pain,” Audra spoke to her suggestively. “You have been patient for quite a long time, and I guess that's weighing on you.”“Of course, it's weighing on me,” Elsa said. “Each day of the past three years has passed, only to brin

“I bet Craster should be thinking of giving up by now,” Lucian stated as Carlyle followed him from behind. “I don't think there's any way out of this for him. We have closed down every possible route for him and his men to gain supplies.”“That foolhardy bastard doesn't look like one who would give up easily,” Carlyle said as opened the doors of his alpha's chamber, feeling glad to be home after yet another conquest. “We'll give him a couple of days to think about it. Maybe seven days.”“That's more than enough time to regroup and prepare for a counter-attack,” Lucian protested as they both sat at a table in his chamber. “We must strike the iron while it's still glowing hot.”“Alright then,” Carlyle suggested, letting out a tired sigh. “Five days.”“Three days. We need them on their toes, and under pressure if we want their decision to be quick, and insensible.” Lucian leaned back in his chair. “That would be yet another territory under our grasp.”“Alright then,” Carlyle said, as he

Three Years Later…Anna wiped the blood off her sword as she looked down on the dead body in front of her. It was still surreal how she had gone from sluggish practices by the stream side to being at the forefront of the Lock Heart's bout with Craster's forces.It was yet another victory for Lucian and the Lock Heart pack, as they were just about closing in on Craster's territory.Yet another battle, she thought. All the battles seemed the same from the very first day she became approved to join Lucian's men. There was nothing new to it, as it was almost, all about going out, fighting, coming back, and waiting for the next time to repeat the whole process.At a point, it felt like Craster wasn't even putting any effort into the fights, as all their victories were almost flawless. She felt he should have just given up when he had the chance. But then, she knew how great the ego of an alpha could be to give up in a fight and give up his territory in the process. They would have to fight

Anna's eyes opened quite slowly until she was wide awake. She had thought she had been asleep in her room until she realized that, the scent of vetiver and musk were still strong in the air she breathed.She was still a bit doubtful of where she was until she tossed to her left into the thick masculine build which could only be Lucian's. It was then that it all dawned on her, all that had happened. She had indeed fallen asleep being beside him. Her wolf seemed to be unusually peaceful.There was darkness all over, and it was a bit hard to tell if they were in the dead of the night or the early hours of the morning. It seemed to be probably the former, as they had slept off by sunset.I shouldn't be here, she thought to herself, as she shifted a bit away from him. But then, his bed was quite too comfortable, and that comfortably annulled the thoughts of sneaking out of his room.Before she could make up her mind, Lucian's arm came over her waist, as though he had read her thoughts, and

“She was ours for the taking,” Lex ranted further.“Someone could have possibly been watching us from somewhere.” Lucian didn't want anything of that sort spreading about him. His people would possibly ask if his fortress didn't have enough room for the both of them.But then, he knew deep down within him that wasn't the main reason why he backed out from having her there and then. He couldn't care less about what the people had to say. It bothered him how much longer he could put up with the inward battle for restraint that went on within him.He wanted Anna, but then, he wanted her to give herself to him. By herself.The idea of the bargain didn't appeal to him, and he was afraid that it couldn't fill up the void that was within him. He had been searching for a mate who would be a partner and a part of everything he would ever do, and not one who would give herself to him only because of some bargain to make her stronger.But then, he was unable to deny how much he wanted her. He cr

"Yes, it's bound to be awkward," Anna replied to her wolf, as she headed towards the stream. The familiar scent of the leaves forced her to admit that it had been quite a while, and she wondered why Lucian had chosen that place for their practice. Was he trying to bring back memories? If any memories lingered, it would be that of Horace's treachery.“It's not meant to be awkward,” Ava replied to her. “He's our mate, Anna, and you should learn to embrace that and make it easier for the both of us.”She could feel her wolf leap within her as Lucian's scent soon came subtly into the air. His essence could entice anyone.“Get a grip, Ava.” Anna tried to still her wolf, which was almost in an erratic frenzy because of Lucian's presence. She wondered what Lucian's wolf looked like. “We're here to train, and not to catch any sort of feelings.”“He smells so good…” Ava's words echoed unpleasantly in Anna's head“Just stop…” Anna couldn't get herself to say how irresistible his scent was in he

“He's all yours,” Audra roared in Elsa's head.Elsa tried to restrain herself a bit more as she recalled how it had ended the other time. But he looked needy and hadn't pushed her away even though she was drawing dangerously close.‘You're smarter than that,’ Elsa reminded herself, as she wanted to wait for more cues to make her move. Lucian looked heavy, and it was just the perfect scenario, but she needed another convincing subtle go-ahead order.“You never need to worry about anything, Lucian,” she stood to her feet, calculating her woes every step of the way. “All you have to do is...” she stood behind him, putting her hands on his shoulders, and rubbing them gently, “is to look how far you have come, and all the obstacles you were able to overcome...”She felt like she could add more to that, to make him give her the cue she was desperately looking for. Her patience was running thin, as she was barely keeping herself from going all in.“Thanks...” he said, through a relaxed sigh.

“What?” Lucian could barely keep himself from teetering at those words. How could she? Why would she? Just when he had thought his happiest days had come, he was being met with such a queer request.Anna felt hesitant to repeat herself as she had spent it out the first time, but then, she had to clear him of every doubt. “I cannot be your Luna.”“What did you just say...?” Lucian felt his blood boiling through his veins at her words. Who does she think she is to make such a decision?He motioned towards her and she took nervous steps backwards. She saw the fury in his eyes and it scared her but she tried to keep calm.‘She can't possibly be serious...’ Lex stuttered in his head.“Why do you make such a request “Do you have the slightest idea of what you're demanding?” He stopped in front of her, his intimidating features towering over her.Anna gulped, “W… well, I know what exactly you're demanding, and there's no way in a blue moon that I can be your Luna or that of the Lock Heart,”

“Finally,” Lex said to him, sounding pleased and relieved.Lucian was unsure how to feel about Anna's reaction to them being mates. She was just as predictable as he had thought she was. Even though the pull was obviously gnawing at her mercilessly, she seemed to somehow hold get fort against it.“You won't have to try to put up with resisting her anymore,” his wolf went on. “That's almost the hardest thing to do. It was much harder than ending all those men Leola had betrayed you to.”But then, it was beginning to seem like the problem of trying to resist had ended, just to give way for another one. She seemed to resist him that time around. He wasn't sure how much longer he could keep up with that, after waiting so long to have her.“You are worried about her?”“Just a little bit,” Lucian admitted, but he wasn't going to show it in any way. Not to Anna. He recalled how badly it had gone the last time he had let his emotions get the better of him and was determined not to let anythin
