“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.

    “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. That is the only th

    They all became quiet at the sound of their father's voice. Seeing how quiet they had all become because he stepped in, his eyes scanned their faces, moving from Blue, to his wife and then, to his son, Beck.“I'm sure you all didn't become deaf and dumb all of a sudden.” He said with a stern look on his face. “What's with the sudden silence?” He asked, his eyes not leaving Beck.“It's nothing, dad.” Beck lied, but his mother was determined not to cover the matter up.“Liar!” She suddenly shouted, facing Beck.“Okay, now I need to know what is going on. What is all this?” Beck's dad asked, with a puzzled look on his face.“Is no one ready to speak now?” He asked, raising his voice.Before his wife could give him an answer, Blue spoke up.“Well, it's obviously that girl, dad! I don't even know what he sees in such a crappy person.” Blue answered him.“Blue!” Beck yelled her name, trying to shut her up but she was not ready to back down.“What is it?” She snapped, rolling her eyes at him

    FIRE DAWN PACK Two weeks rolled by so quickly and it was now time for Steve to be let out of the dungeon. “Good afternoon Beta Richard.” They all greeted him as soon as they saw him and he nodded slightly in response. “Steve, it's time to leave. Let's get you out of here.” Beta Richard said as he approached Steve with one of the guards. Steve scoffed, “Oh, he finally wants to let me out?” He said, with a menacing look on his face. “What were you expecting? To be here forever?” Beta Richard tackled Steve's question and Steve shrugged, unperturbed. “Open the gates.” Beta Richard ordered the guard, who immediately did as he was told, finally letting Steve out. “Damn, you look rough.” Beta Richard teased and Steve rolled his eyes at him, jokingly. “Glad to finally have you out.” Beta Richard said again and Steve smiled. “Are you trying to say you have missed me?” Steve asked with a tiny smile. “Miss you? You wish.” Beta Richard replied, giving a funny expression. Steve couldn'

    Steve immediately rushed in after Beta Richard, his heart beating fast as Beta Richard made his way into the living room. As soon as they got into the living room and saw no one, Steve heaved a sigh of relief.“Wow, for someone who has not been home for almost a month now, your house sure looks so neat and organized.” Beta Richard commented as his eyes scanned the room and for a split second, Steve became speechless, not knowing how to respond to Beta Richard's comment on the state of his house.Seeing as Steve didn't talk, Beta Richard turned to him and furrowed his brows as he expected a response from Steve.“Oh, it has to be Megan. She is the only one who has access into this place, aside from me, obviously. She has the keys and so I'm guessing she comes from time to time to clean the place up.” Steve said“Hmmmmm!” Beta Richard mused as he slid his fingers gently across the wooden shelf, checking for dust but finding none, “that explains why the whole place is spotless.” He said,

    Steve jumped off the bed, shocked and stood metres away from the bed. The hand which grabbed his leg was no longer in view by the time he jumped off the bed. Confused, he began to think about what Beta Richard said before he left.“Could there really be an intruder in the house?” He thought to himself as he gradually approached the bed once again. This time, determined to face whoever it was who was hiding underneath the bed.He gradually and carefully knelt to the ground, ready to catch whoever it was who had the effrontery to come into his house to scare him.Peeping, he was surprised to see Veronica under the bed, laughing at him. She had laid down there, with her hands covering her mouth, to make sure he didn't hear any sound she made.“Oh my goodness. Veronica!” He exclaimed, surprised and relieved at the same time.“What are you doing there?” He asked as he helped her out of there.“Hiding.” She replied, still laughing.“Hiding from who?” He inquired.“From whoever that person

    As Steve approached the door, he began thinking about what Veronica said. Could he truly be in trouble this time?“I haven't done anything wrong this time. As a matter of fact, I just got out of the dungeon.” He thought to himself.“Who is there?” He asked as he got to the door but there was no response.He peeped through the peephole, but there was no one in view.“Is this a prank or something?” He hissed and turned to go back in without opening the door. As he got back into the room, Veronica, who had been waiting anxiously, asked him with a very low tone, “Who was it?”“I don't know.” He shrugged, taking his seat beside her. “No one answered me.” He added.“Didn't you open the door to check?” She asked him, but he shook his head.“I didn't. I asked who was there but no one responded. Maybe it was just a prank.” He replied, shrugging again.“You can't be so sure. What if someone is actually out there waiting to see you?” She asked, with an unsettled look on her face.“Well, that's

    “Steve… Steve. You're h…here. I didn't know you were co…coming. You didn't tell me you were coming.” She kept stuttering, not knowing the right words to use.“How long have you been standing at the door?” She asked, bothered.“Long enough to hear every single thing you've said so far.” He replied, his eyes filled with complete disappointment.Shoving her to the side with his shoulder, he strode past her to confront the truth he had just overheard.“How could you, Megan? How could you?” She quickly shut the door, and followed him. “I can explain, Steve. I swear I can explain.” “Explain what? The fact that you caused the accident and accused Veronica of trying to kill you? Or the fact that you actually PAID Trey to take advantage of her, leading to his death? What part of it do you want to explain? Huh?” He questioned her angrily. “What did that girl ever do to you?”Megan's expression suddenly turned cold as she realized that Steve was still trying to defend Veronica.“Can't you see?

    FIRE DAWN PACK Bothered and unsettled with a lot of unanswered questions, Steve paced in his room, restlessly. He couldn't get his mind off the fact that Veronica was no longer in their pack and what made matters worse was the fact that he couldn't do anything to help her because of his father's threat. He still found it appalling that Megan was the one who made matters more complicated, eventually leading to Veronica’s unfortunate and untimely exile.The memories of that day at the palace flashed through his mind like a slideshow, and he couldn't just get his mind off it.He also couldn't get Veronica’s frantic screams as she was dragged out of the palace, out of his head, and he was so mad at himself that he could only watch helplessly, without being able to lend a helping hand.He took a seat, staring at his phone, and another smaller device in his hand, as he tapped his foot on the ground, anxiously. An idea suddenly popped up in his mind, and he suddenly got up, slipped the de

    “My…my brother?” Veronica wasn't sure if she had spoken the right words.“Yes, your brother.” Luna Isabella reaffirmed, nodding her head. “After years of searching relentlessly for you, the moon goddess blessed us with him nine years ago.” Luna Isabella explained to the already shocked Veronica.Veronica’s hands shot up to cover her mouth, and her eyes brimmed with tears which soon began to quickly pour down her face, overwhelming her as a wave of emotion crashed down on her heart.She had just found out that she had a ‘whole’ brother, and she was in complete shock and extreme happiness at the same time.She sobbed uncontrollably, her body shaking with the force of her emotions as tears streamed down her face, dripping from her chin as she struggled to process the overwhelming joy and shock that she felt at that instant.“Come on, don't cry.” Luna Isabella immediately got up, trying to console her, but it seemed like she was inconsolable.She had always wanted a brother, but when she

    “Uh… who am I meeting?” Veronica asked, with an unsure look on her face.Her eyes darted from her mother to her father, hoping that one of them would at least give her a clue about who she was going to meet.“Someone special.” Her mum replied, beaming with a warm smile. “REALLY special.” She stressed, her eyes sparkling with emphasis.“Come on, let's go.” She urged, and winked at her husband.He winked back at her, and Veronica caught them, her eyes narrowing in reluctance as a faint crease formed between her eyebrows.“I just caught you both winking at each other. I'm not sure if I want to meet this person.” She said, furrowing her brows.“Do you trust me?” Luna Isabella and Veronica nodded slowly, her expression still reluctant.“Then come with me.” Luna Isabella said, her tone persuasive.Veronica took a deep breath and finally obliged. Luna Isabella led the way, while Veronica followed closely behind her, wondering where they could be heading to.As they walked through the majesti

    “You mean you were in that pack all along?” Her father asked, still taken aback.“Not exactly. I was only there for a little over a year.” Veronica replied quickly.“Oh, wow. I actually had some friends there some time ago. It's been a long time ago though. I met them when I went on a trip concerning pack matters. It's just that we no longer communicate that much, because their pack is quite far away from here and everyone is busy with one pack duty or the other.” He explained to Veronica.“Really?” Veronica asked, surprised.“Yes. In fact, one of them was popularly called Richie back then, I think.” He said, narrowing his eyes as he tried to remember.He turned to his wife, and asked her, “Am I right?”She nodded affirmatively. “Yes, his name was Richie.” She confirmed, nodding affirmatively.“He came with a woman. He said they were representing the Alpha of their pack, who was unavoidably absent.” He added, and Veronica had a puzzled look on her face.“Hold on a second. Richie. What

    After the announcement was passed, Veronica and her parents began to discuss, catching up on a lot of things they had missed about each other.“I have a question though.” Luna Isabella suddenly said, and paused.“What is it?” Veronica inquired gently.“Why did you change your hair color?” She asked her. Veronica sighed, and answered, “Well, I just did it to look different. I wanted a change.”“You know, a lot happened in the last pack I lived in.” She said, trying to force a smile.“Care to let us in on it?” Alpha Charles asked, and Veronica sighed deeply.Seeing how hesitant she was, he quickly said, “It's okay if you still don't want to talk about it. We promise, we won't be pushy. We won't force you.” “Right?” He asked, turning to his wife.“Yes. Please, take all the time you need. We promise not to ask you about it if you don't want to talk about it.” Her mother affirmed, nodding her head.“No, it's fine.” Veronica said, respectfully interrupting her mother. “I want to talk about

    “You had been kidnapped by the sorceress, Caterina. That was the beginning of our nightmares. Our lives were literally turned upside down.” He continued.As he spoke, Veronica could feel the pain in his voice and she could only try to imagine the kind of pain they felt back then.“A search party was sent out, and the whole pack was combed in search of you, the lost princess, but no one saw you, neither did they see the sorceress. There was no place we didn't search, but the results were the same. They couldn't even find anything that could serve as a clue. It was as if she disappeared with you into oblivion.”“But who was she really? And why did she kidnap me? I'm sure I had none, but what was my offense? What did an innocent baby do to her? Why did she make me go through terrible things? Why did she make me feel worthless and useless? Why did she choose to turn my life upside down and inside out?” Veronica asked, fighting back her tears, and her parents sighed.Luna Isabella took Ver

    Still in Luna Isabella’s embrace, and seeing how happy they all were, Veronica just kept staring at them, as confused as ever.“Not to be a killjoy, but will anyone be kind enough to tell me what is going on here?” She asked, her brow furrowed in confusion. “Because I'm really confused. I don't understand what all this excitement and joy is all about.” She stated, a look of perplexity settled on her face.With tears of joy in her eyes, Luna Isabella pulled back to stare at Veronica for a short moment, and hugged her again, and seeing how emotional the atmosphere had gotten, Veronica just remained calm.“My daughter. My princess. My child.” She heard Luna Isabella’s voice, and she was shocked, because she spoke to her through the mindlink.Veronica quickly pulled away.“Did you just say something?” She asked, unsure of what she had just heard.“Yes, I did.” Luna Isabella replied with a broad smile, as she wiped her tears with a clean cloth, which her husband handed over to her.“I thin

    Hearing Veronica scream out of her unconscious state, they all rushed to her.“Are you okay? Can you see us? Can you talk? Are you in pain?” Numerous questions flew around in the air, leaving her with no space to answer any one in particular.Veronica, still in a daze, was fazed by the numerous unknown faces staring down at her on the bed.“Call the doctor! Tell him to come here right away!” Alpha Charles ordered the guards, who immediately raced out of the room at top speed.“Where am I?” Veronica thought to herself. “Who are these people, and why are they staring at me?”“Have I just been kidnapped? Am I dead? Am I in the afterlife?” Her heartbeat fastened, as she stared at them, having no idea of what they wanted to do to her, if they were going to hurt her or do something worse than that to her.“But on second thought, they don't look hostile. They look scared. Like they are afraid and worried.” She tried to judge by their facial expression.“Seems these are the leaders here. The
