“Megan, please talk to me. What is going on?” Veronica asked as calmly as possible even though she was completely scared and her anxiety was shooting through the roof. Her heart, racing with every passing second.

She wished Megan had put the call on loudspeaker, so she would have heard the whole conversation with her dad and there would have been no need for her to start asking questions from Megan, who was now looking so devastated with tears welling up in her eyes.

But at the same time, she understood that it was a conversation between a father and his child and it should be somewhat private. So she respected her privacy.

As Megan began to cry, Veronica became so confused, not knowing what to do or what words to say that wouldn't complicate the present situation or worsen it.

“Megan, can you please talk to me? What did your dad say? Is Steve fine?” Veronica kept asking, her voice filled with concern but Megan just kept crying, her cries getting louder.

    “Are you sure about this, Richard?” Alpha Marcus asked Beta Richard who nodded positively.“I'm positive. From the evidence found at the scene, I'm very sure that it was a deliberate act.” Beta Richard spoke with confidence. “The oil that was found was placed strategically. The fire was set on the floor where there were fabric stores and food stores, knowing well how often the food stores used matchsticks. There are also book stores on that floor.” Beta Richard explained carefully.“Hmmmmm!” Alpha Marcus mused as he thought deeply about it.“So there was no way it wouldn't have happened with all those stores filled with materials which could start a fire and help it spread quickly.” Alpha Marcus said and Beta Richard snapped his fingers.“Exactly, now you get it.” Beta Richard said to him.As soon as he got to the palace from the fire scene, Beta Richard had informed Alpha Marcus of everything that happened and all the information that he had been able to gather but Alpha Marcus was f

    As instructed, the Pack Heralds immediately walked around the pack and began to announce the Alpha’s instructions to every member of the pack. They positioned themselves at different areas from the northern part, to the southern part to eastern part and the western part, yelling the order of the Alpha to everyone who listened.“According to the Alpha's orders and for your safety, Parents, keep your children home. Spouses, siblings, everyone - stay inside. Do not come out. Lock your door and your windows.” They shouted out loud.“Also, after now. Every house will be searched. There is a traitor in our midst and we need to fish them out. Put your houses in order and if you have any stranger in your houses, it is better for you to hand them over immediately the guards get to your houses.” They continued.“Do not argue with or resist the authorities in any way, else you and every member of your household will appear before the Alpha before you are thrown into jail for harbouring a crimina

    It didn't take long before the search for the traitor in the pack began. It wasn't a simple task, especially with how large the pack was, so it wasn't a task that could be finished in one day. The guards got splitted into different teams, with each team having a leader from among themselves to make the work faster, but even with that, they still had a lot to do.The guards went from house to house, searching for the supposed traitor. The instructions given to them included that they should pick anyone who looked suspicious, especially anyone who didn't belong in the pack, so they were on the lookout for strangers in the pack.They searched and searched. Minutes rolled into hours, hours rolled into days and the days rolled into a week. They searched for a whole week but found nothing suspicious.One night as their search had now extended to the area where Steve's house was located, they began to search all the houses, asking the residents to come out, while they carried out their search

    “Have you both gone deaf?” Captain Murphy asked as he walked towards them, while the rest of his team stayed back and waited for him.“I just asked you both a question. I said, what are you doing here?” He asked again, now standing in front of them but they were too embarrassed to speak.“I believe that I'm not speaking to deaf and dumb guards, right?” He asked. “Stan? Fred?” He called their names.“Yes, Captain.” They both answered.“Oh, they are not deaf, after all.” Captain Murphy said, as he waited for them to start talking.“So?” He urged them, raising his eyebrows, still waiting patiently for them to begin to talk about what they were up to at Steve's house.“Actually, we were trying to go into the house to search for-” Fred began to talk shakily.“Wait, what!?” Captain Murphy exclaimed, interrupting him as he was unable to believe his ears. “You were trying to do what?”“To go into the house to search.” Fred replied, pointing at Steve's house behind them.“To search for what exa

    “Veronica?” She heard a familiar voice, whispering her name and she immediately opened her eyes and waited to be sure that she wasn't hallucinating and that she heard clearly.“Veronica, where are you?” She clearly heard it the second time and she immediately recognized the voice. She sighed in relief as she realized that it was none else but Megan.“I'm here.” Veronica answered, whispering too.“Where?” Megan replied, her eyes scanning through the room for any sign of Veronica. “I don't see you anywhere.” She said again as she didn't find her anywhere visible.“I'm right here.” Veronica said again, slipping her hand out from under the bed and waved at Megan, startling her. “Oh my goodness!” Megan screamed and immediately covered her mouth to avoid getting unnecessary attention from people. “What are you doing there?” Megan asked after she composed herself.“I was hiding.” Veronica revealed and slipped out from under the bed, with Megan lending her a helping hand as she got up.“Hidi

    “What is it, please?” Veronica asked, with eager eyes and Megan gave a funny look. “Really? Come on, guess.” Megan pressed, waiting for her to at least say something.“I'm not good at guessing, Megan.” She said, seeing the look on Megan's face.“Fine, since you're not willing to guess. I guess I’ll have to keep my information to myself.” Megan said, looking away.“Come on, Megan. Please, don't do that.” Veronica begged her gently. “I really am so bad at guessing. And I'm not joking. I'm being very honest with you.” She said, further but Megan refused to answer her.She then got up and went straight to Megan, saying, “Please….” with a cute little face.“Fine! Just because of that cute little face, I'll tell you.” Megan said, smiling.“So I spoke to my dad and he has agreed to speak to the Alpha.” She continued.“About what?” Veronica asked, looking confused.“About Steve.” She revealed and Veronica's eyes lighted up.“Really? Are you being serious?” Veronica asked her.“Of course yes.

    As they got to the meeting area, they met council member Maxwell, Megan's father, sitting and scrolling through his phone as he patiently awaited the arrival of Alpha Marcus.The moment he saw the Alpha, he got up and slightly bowed to him, in respect.“Good morning, Alpha. Good Morning Beta Richard.” He greeted both of them.“Good morning, Councillor Maxwell.” Alpha Marcus said and stretched forth his hand to Councillor Maxwell who took it in a firm handshake.“How are you doing today?” Alpha Marcus asked him.“I'm doing fine, thank you.” He replied, “I hope you're doing well too?” He asked him too and Alpha Marcus nodded in response.“Well aside from the recent events, I think I'm fine.” Alpha replied as he took his seat on his throne while Councillor Maxwell and Beta Richard took their seats right after he sat down.“Yes, I understand. Thanks to the moon goddess that we were able to do something before things got out of hand. Kudos to you all for being alert.” Councillor Maxwell co

    SUN CREST PACK Beck, now the Alpha of the Sun Crest Pack, paced alone in his chambers as he eagerly awaited news. At some point, he got impatient and called out to one of the guards at the door, who immediately rushed in to answer his Alpha.He bowed before Beck as he said, “Alpha, you called me.”“Yes, I did. Are they not back yet?” Beck asked him and the guard looked at him, a little confused.He suddenly remembered what Beck was talking about and answered, “No, Alpha. They are not back yet.”“Is there no way to reach them so I can know how long it is going to take before they get back?” He asked the guard again.“I don't think that will be possible, sir.” The guard replied.“Why not?” Alpha Beck asked him, with a puzzled look on his face.“We lost communication with them a while after they left the Pack.” The guard revealed and Beck sighed sharply.“So we really do not have a choice but to wait until they are back, right?” Beck questioned him further.“Yes sir.

    Veronica wailed helplessly as the thought of her only daughter being killed filled her heart.“Who could have done this?” Beck questioned himself, as he tried to console his wife. “Please don't cry. We'll find her.” He tried to be strong for both of them.“Please take her inside.” He said to Veronica’s maids.“I'm not going anywhere until my daughter is found.” Veronica protested, crying profusely.“Please just calm down and stay inside. We'll find her. I promise.” He tried to appease her, fighting his tears at the same time.“I shouldn't have left her alone. I shouldn't have taken my eyes off her.” Veronica blamed herself for what had happened as she was taken back into the palace, even though she struggled with the maids, who tried to take her in.Minutes rolled into hours, hours rolled into days and days rolled into weeks. Before they knew it, it had been one month since Miley was kidnapped on her birthday, right under their watch, and they were yet to find her.Beck was broken as

If it's about Blue, I don't want to hear anything. She is old enough to take care of herself.” He snapped, cutting Ben off.Ben hesitated for a moment and began to speak again. “Your parents are here to—”“Ben!” Beck yelled, looking up from the documents he was going through. “What part of ‘I don't want to say anything about them’ don't you understand?” He asked, angrily.“I don't want to lose my temper, please. If you have nothing better to say. Just leave my sight.” Beck dismissed him immediately.“I'm sorry.” Ben bowed, and left the room.As he stepped out, he met Beck's family members, waiting in anticipation. And as soon as they saw Ben, they rushed to him, but he shook his head.“He doesn't want to see anyone. I tried to tell him that you all wanted to see him, but he refused.” B

    “What do you mean? Where do you plan to go?” Alpha Charles asked, staring at his daughter, who had just told them that she needed a break, and wanted to go on a journey.“Honestly, I don't know yet. I was hoping you could help me speak to maybe one of your trusted friends. Maybe I can just stay there for a while.” Veronica replied.“And how long are we talking about?” Her father inquired.Veronica hesitated. “About a year or more than that.” She replied, squinting as she waited for her parents’ reaction.“What!” Her parents exclaimed. “Why would you want to leave for that long?” They chorused.“I just need a short break.” Veronica answered.“That is definitely not ‘short’.” Her father pointed out.“Hmmmmm…” Luna Isabella sighed. “I'm really worried about you, Veronica. You look pale and you're not telling us anything. What is the matter, darling?” “It’s nothing serious, mum. I just need to go somewhere.” Veronica replied.“Is this about Alpha Beck?” Her father asked, and she remained

    “Vee!” He called out her nickname in the same tender, loving tone he'd used years ago, when they were still together in his pack. The familiar sound of his voice, the way he whispered her name, awakened a flood of past memories and emotions.“Don't!” She snapped, turning around, and letting out a gasped breath. “Don't you dare call me that. You have no right!” She pointed straight into his chest.“Veronica, please.” He begged, falling on his knees.“You lost the right to call my name that way the moment you stood there and watched me being humiliated and you did nothing. Absolutely nothing, Beck. You did nothing, despite my desperate cries for help.” She held her breath, and turned around, leaving again.“Wait up. Listen to me.” He jumped to his feet, going after her, but she refused to stop.“Please, hear me out. Forgive me. Please give me another chance to make it up to you. I'm begging you.” He continued, his voice laced with a mix of longing and desperation, his eyes pleading for

    “He is the Alpha of Sun Crest, Alpha Beck.” Her father said further, introducing Beck to her, unaware of what was going on.Even Ben, who was standing beside Beck, was completely shocked. Never in a million years did they imagine that the princess who they came to attend her birthday would be Veronica. The one they had been searching for for years and had thought she was probably dead.Soon enough, Alpha Charles noticed the awkward silence between them. His eyes darted from Beck to Veronica and back to Beck. “Do you two know each other?” He asked, curiously.“Yes.” Beck answered immediately. “No” Veronica answered sharply, with both of them speaking at the same time.“Okay, now this is weird.” Alpha Charles commented. “What is going on?”“Please, excuse me.” Veronica immediately ran out.Beck was also about to run after her when Alpha Charles caught him by the arm. “What is going on? What did you do to my daughter?”“I promise we’ll explain everything to you, but I have to talk to her

    Veronica immediately turned, and saw a young figure running towards her.“Scott?” She called out, unsure. But as he got close to her, and she saw him clearly, she shouted, “Scott. Oh my goodness.” Scott jumped into her arms gladly and they remained in each other's embrace for a short while till Veronica heard a voice. “Happy Birthday, Veronica.”She looked up, “Beta Richard? Steve? Oh no, am I dreaming?” She asked, completely surprised.“No, you're not.” Her dad intervened, as he joined them.“How? Ho….how was this possible? How did this happen?” She asked, stuttering impatiently.“Apparently, the ‘Richie’ I told you about turned out to be Richard, here.” He revealed, throwing her into further shock.“I had to do my findings after you were so interested in the person and realized he was someone you knew and I decided to invite them here as a surprise.” He added.“Really, dad?” She exclaimed excitedly. “I'm so speechless right now.”“Now that you are all here, I want to use this oppor

    Veronica lay motionless, her chest rising and falling with each gentle breath. The soft morning light streaming through the window highlighted the peaceful features of her face, her eyelids fluttering slightly as she chased the remnants of a dream.The silence was almost palpable, broken only by the distant chirping of birds, flying in the sky. Veronica's hair flowed across the pillow like a waterfall of night, a few stray strands framing her face.Just as it seemed like the silence would continue, the creak of the front door broke the stillness. Vincent stepped out of his room, tiptoeing, his footsteps echoing through the hallway. As he got to Veronica's room, he pushed open the door slowly, wincing slightly at the faint creak of the hinges. A warm smile spread across his face as he gazed at his sister, sleeping soundly. He moved with a quiet motion, trying so hard not to startle his sister or disrupt her sleep.“Vee?” Vincent whispered, his voice barely audible over the sound of hi

    ONE YEAR LATERSUN CREST PACKBeck sat, lost in thoughts as he tried to attend to pressing pack matters. There had been some recent attacks, but despite trying so hard to increase the security at the borders, the attacks still didn't stop.“What else can we do to stop these minor attacks?” Beck asked, his eyes focused on the papers on his table.Ben sighed. “Honestly, I have no idea, but I'm quite bothered about something though.” He said with a worried look on his face.“About what?” Beck inquired, his eyes still on the papers.“About why the attacks keep increasing despite every measure we've put in place in the last three months.” Ben replied, thinking thoughtfully.“That's exactly what I'm saying. I'm really pissed, and I think the security team isn't doing what they are supposed to be doing. I guess it's time for a change. They will all hear from me soon!” Beck hissed, leaning back into his chair.“You know what? Pass the message to all of them. Moving forward, I'm not going to t
