/Selena’s POV/The nudge from Oliver woke me up, it was and though I prefer to sleep some more, I was tired of course, my whole body hurts, and the pain is slowly fading away though. I forced my lids open the moment the door closed behind the two, and with Chris receding footsteps I could tell he was moving away from the door. I sighed and ordained my body to the headboard where I was able to calm my throbbing head.Chris did go a little too far last night, I mean I wanted it but he could have at least taken it easy on me even if it's a little.“I don’t wanna get up” I muttered staring out of the window which I’m sure Martha had come opened and regardless of the piercing rays of the morning sun, I wish to go back to sleep but more than my beauty sleep, I wanted to see Chris, I yearned for him, this is crazy, he was in my embrace all night, why am I suddenly yearning for him again this morning? Yeah, it was crazy but try telling my hungry wolf that. I thought forcing my tired body to m
/Selena’s POV/Kayla’s ascension to beta just finished, the pack was in a festive mode and I, I was happy that I handled my very first pack event as a Luna, I was glad that Chris had entrusted me with everything, and I’m pretty thrilled that it went well but I was still worried, not about Kayla or the pack, Chris could always handle that if I feel like it was too much, after all, he said I could always rely on him a little so, it felt rather natural to leave the task I couldn’t do to him.What I’m worried about, however, is Oliver who was caught raiding the fridge in the middle of the night. Harry did tell us his constitution is similar to a baby wolf so, he would behave like one, apart from milk, meat has also been introduced into his diet, it’s been a month after all, but to think he would be raiding the fridge for raw meat, I don’t know how to feel about that, brings back bad memories. I was still there lost in my thought when Martha came panting.“Luna…Luna, beta Eric is back” She
/Christian’s POV/ While I’ve been busy pushing my wedding back, I’ve been trying to solve the Lab issue as well as my personal issue that involved my mate, or my girlfriend or my fiance but while I got my hands busy with all that, Kayla dropped a bomb on me, it was Eric’s return to the pack. I had myself freezing in spot upon hearing the news. I mean, I knew Eric was unpredictable but I know what he was capable of, at least to some extent, being Sean’s lab rat…that doesn’t sound like Eric at all. He wouldn’t agree to something so stupid even if he had a lot in for him. “What should I do?” Kayla requested after a while of waiting for the news to sink in. “If Eric’s accepted that godforsaken Serum and changed himself, it means there’s something in it for Sean, they have a common goal. I feel bad about this because their common target can only be Chris” This is bad news though. “Test out Eric’s strength Kayla, wait…even if you were to do that, he’ll probably hide his strength, but co
/Selena’s POV/“Where’s my husband you son of a bitch?” I demanded, grabbing Eric by the shirt as I asked for him to produce Chris at once.“I understand you’re being emotional right now Luna, but you have to calm down” While he sounded like he was comforting me, I could see through it, the mockery he concealed within it.“You son of a bitch you think you can fool me, you called him out two days ago, late at night, you think I don’t know ” I bellowed. I didn’t care that I was at the training grounds, and I didn’t care that we have eyes on us, I just…I just wanted to see him. It’s unlike Chris to be gone for so long, he’s been gone for a day, that’s the longest he’s been away from his pack.“Aren’t you being a little bit overprotective, he’s an alpha…he can take care of himself” Hearing him say that had people in response because it’s true, Chris can take care of himself but this predator, I narrowed my eyes at him and he leaned in and whispered into my ear.“Why don’t you go wait for
/Eric’s POV/I growled and dive my fist right into the wall in anger ‘Selena!” I gritted furiously, feeling my rage surge as I recalled everything that happened at the meeting.“Do you have a problem that I’d be leading my husband’s pack while he’s away?” I remember her asking the elders who at first scoffed at her upfront but her confident demeanour and unwavering attitude make it impossible to dare belittle her. I thought since with Chris, I’d start setting things slowly making accomplishments that have them accomplish me as a proper replacement, Selena had one job, to sit still and act like the incompetent Luna she is but seeing her sit in the alpha’s sit, her eyes bloodshot while properly hiding her bloodlust from me made me think my plan might not work, so…I panicked, thinking everything I’d work so hard to build, all the struggles I went through to get to were I was might go down the drain. I mind-linked Walls who had joined hands with me with the agreement that Lydia would be
/Chris’ POV/ The scent of blood loom in the air, and the green lustred glasses were stained with the crimson liquid splattered all over the place, I have no fucking idea where I was but I do know one thing, Eric was involved in this, I panted softly removing my hand from the heart of the last person standing, I have no idea what they did to me or what they’re trying to do to me because the moment I felt a needle to my skin, Ace lost it, by the time I regained my senses, all these people were already dead, and the last one who I could have question happens to have just lost his life in my hands since he attacked me. About 15 wolves were dead, and I…was drenched in their blood, I know Ace sometimes goes mad if he’s restrained but I didn’t think he’d go on a killing spree. There’s one thing I’m able to deduct though, I’m no longer in the pack and that’s because of someone…Eric! I gritted my teeth feeling a surge in my rage. I recalled him calling me out wanting to talk, yeah sure I was
/Christian’s POV/ “Alpha, we’ve raided the whole grounds and searched the whole perimeter, but the doctor still hasn’t been found” Amman reported. Shit! Shit! Shit! I really thought I’d be able to finish up with this, at least this time around. It took me a lot of time to get here goddamnit. “Any chance that they might have anticipated the attack?” I asked Amman through the earbuds since we all have one. “Not exactly, and after interrogating a few researchers at the site, it seems the doctor left to take care of someone, Sean commanded it. ‘take care of someone huh?’ I thought trying to figure out who’d be so important to have Sean force his doctor out of his precious facility. “Okay, burn the place down, we’re retreating, leave the scientists alive, I might need them to bait out the doctor” I instructed getting down from the surveillance vehicle which I’d been staying in while commanding and overseeing the whole operation. Except things get dire I don’t expose myself, it’s one
/Chris’ POV/“Micheal report” I urged my shadow as I stood from Selena’s beside, she seem to be suffering from not just mental shock but the body switch adverse effects as well, they both really need to have that fixed soon.“Sean…has started mobilising all the alphas on his side, I think Willow pack will be going through a revolutionary soon” This Sean sure is greedy, now that he’s tasted power in his brother’s absence, he wouldn’t want to settle for less,“Continue to track his movement while reporting it all to Stephen,” I recall telling Stephen Sean will retaliate and challenge him but he claimed his baby brother wasn’t capable of that, he has no fucking idea what greed can turn a person, Sean is a greedy man and would continue to want more even if it means he’d have to sacrifice a few people, after several assassination attempts on Selena, it was easy to figure how much of a persistent bastard he was, he’s quite a determined person and would stop at nothing to achieve his goals.
