Alpha Camerron and his daughter Lakisha spent the previous night anxiously waiting for any signs of improvement in Karina's condition. The next day, as Lakisha prepared to go to her parents room, her heart filled with hope and anticipation, praying that her mother would finally wake up and be back to her lively self again. She grabbed her ringing clock from the bedside table and turned it off. She closed her eyes, rubbed her face, and took a deep breath, trying to calm her racing thoughts.She stayed up late the previous night trying to figure out what could have led to her mother's signs of depression.After scratching her head, groaning, and tossing in bed for as long as she could feel like burying her face in the pillow and crying herself to sleep, she came to the conclusion that her mother's condition might be related to Larrisa's imprisonment.She knew that the road to recovery would be long and uncertain because she had already traveled it, but she was determined to stay strong
Karina, caught off guard by her daughter's question, remained mute, the words she had been trying to form in her head refusing to match with what she was sure her daughter wanted her to say. She could feel her heart racing as she desperately searched for the right words to explain the situation to her daughter. The silence in the room became almost unbearable, leaving Karina grappling with her own emotions and the weight of her daughter's innocent curiosity. "Mom," Her daughter tapped her on the shoulder, tired of waiting over a minute without getting any response. Karina snapped out of her thoughts, her eyes meeting her daughter's concerned gaze. "I'm sorry, sweetheart," she finally managed to say, mustering a smile. "I was just trying to find the best way to explain things to you." Lakisha held her hands on her hips and went to lean against the door. "So, what are you going to say? Karina took a deep breath and silently walked to her. "Well, sweetheart," she began, choosing her
Lakisha pulled open her bedroom door and stepped out into the hallway, feeling a rush of excitement as she embarked on a new day. The sunlight streaming through the windows filled her with a sense of warmth and possibility, motivating her to make the most of every moment. "Lakisha," A deep voice called her when she walked past her dad's study. She turned towards the voice, finding her dad standing in the doorway with a blank look on his face. "Good morning," he greeted, his orange-like eyes narrowing at her."Morning, dad." She smiled a little to show no traces of fear on her face. Showing fear will only reveal what she has failed to do. She had been avoiding her dad's study for two days now, knowing that he had been disappointed in her failure to keep her word.She knew that she needed to maintain a facade of confidence and composure, even though inside she was filled with anxiety. She walked towards him, bracing herself for the conversation that was about to unfold."What did we
Camilla stood in the shadows by the window, her back to the room, as she scanned her eyes around. She seemed lost in thought, her gaze distant and contemplative.From her clear-view position on the fifth floor, where her office was located, she had a good view of what was happening in the busy town. She watched as people hurriedly went about their day, the hustle and bustle of the city streets captivating her attention.The honking of car horns and the chatter of pedestrians below filled her ears, creating a symphony of urban life that both fascinated and overwhelmed her.The day was almost ending with orange sun rays illuminating the whole place, making everything glow orange in color.Everyone had started rushing all over the place, obviously going home. There was a group of school kids on the other side of the road who laughed gayly as they carefully crossed the road.The sound of their laughter brought a smile to her face, reminding her of the carefree days of her own childhood.

"What is it you want to tell me about?" Camila asked while leading Ash across the room to the armchair."It's," he trailed, holding tears. "I missed you," she burst out laughing."You freak!" She yelled, throwing fists at him, "I almost had a heart attack.""Oh, come on, babe," he grinned. "It's more like I got you."Camila rolled her eyes, walking away from him. "Whatever Can you now take me home? I am tired.""Whatever my lady wants." Ash winked, helped her pack her purse, and opened the door for him."It feels good that we now get to sleep soundly without the voices threatening to rip our lives off." Camila said this the moment she settled into the car."Yeah," Ash nodded while getting in the driver's seat. "It feels good. Now things seem as peaceful as they were when we were still living in the woods.""Let's go back there sometime in the future. When all this is over and our son is born, She whispered, and Ash reached for her hands to squeeze them.The journey toward their mansio
Wrapping up, Camila stood from her black leather chair and focused her gaze on the window that overlooked the dense mountains present on the eastern side of the city, while a tired sigh escaped her lips. "The sun's set," she murmured, mesmerized by its beauty. Orange rays had shone over all of the world, swallowing everyone with their faint glow, which contained no scorching effect."His Majesty said you should take your time." Ariana, Camila's personal assistant, walked through the door with a broad smile plastered on her face."Mmh," she nodded, whacking the files on the table to re-arrange them. A month had passed since they came back to the city to avenge their foes, but issues were still ongoing. After sitting for a while, she and Ash came to the conclusion that they should let all alphas take care of their packs but would respond to them every month considering how the packs' were fairing.Although the packs were still named the way they were in the past, they were now merged in
Ash walked to his office only to find Keziah sitting on the guest's couch waiting for him. Shaking his head in anger, he strode to his chair across the table and ignored her."Ash, won't you say something?" Keziah's sweet voice came"It's your majesty for you," he corrected her, "and yes, I have nothing to say to you.""You, majesty, please, I told you the only reason I rejected you back then was because Larrisa had asked me to. She had said that..."Enough!" She was cut off. Dropping the hand he had raised to silence her, Ash made it clear to her, "That was then, Keziah, and I have already forgiven you for that. Besides, I know I have a mate. My real mate.""But..""No buts, Keziah," he raised his voice, "and you better get out of here before I do something that will make you regret ever stepping foot in my kingdom!" He warned, a growl pressing in his voice. Silently, Keziah walked out of the office with her head bowed in embarrassment.After it came to her realization that Ash was a
Karina and Ash's mother, Sabrina, walked into the dark forest with black hoods over their heads, making it difficult to be seen. After a long walk, they came in front of a huge cave illuminating with a red glow from the inside and stopped.They stripped the hoodies off their heads and ducked a little to get inside the glowing cave. A frail-looking lady with long white hair with silver streaks and long nails sat in the middle of the cave, a round stone shining with magic sitting on her palm."You failed! Both of you failed!" She yelled, her hoarse voice making anyone think that she had swallowed a frog with some stones."Mother Orphra," they said, bowing slightly, their hands trembling with fear and their legs wobbling."You failed!" Mother Ophra screeched like a monstrous bird, her long nails raised as if to scratch them."We are sorry, Mother Ophra," Karina mumbled in an apology. "We tried our best, Mother Ophra. We…"She was cut off. "Is this what you call the best, huh? Go! Go back

Alpha Cameroon had to leave halfway through the meeting he was handling. Lakisha sounded worried on the phone, and he didn't wish to spend another minute at the office.As he rushed out of the office, Alpha Cameroon couldn't help but wonder what urgent matter had made Lakisha sound so concerned. He hoped that everything was alright and that he could provide the support she needed. He had already lost one daughter, who was now jailed, and he didn't want to lose his wife. He knew if that were to happen, he would lose not only his wife but another daughter as well.His heart raced wildly, thumping on his chest as if threatening to break his ribs apart as he planned to drive home, his mind consumed with thoughts of the potential danger his family could be facing.The fear of losing another loved one weighed heavily on him, fueling his determination to protect and support them no matter what. He vowed to do everything in his power to ensure their safety and happiness, praying that this ur
The doctor quickly hurried to the garage with the other two male nurses, dragging a stretcher with them. Ash was carried and laid on it as they rushed back into the hospital, where he was hospitalized immediately and put on a drip. The medical team wasted no time in assessing Ash's condition and initiating the necessary treatment. With a sense of urgency, they closely monitored his vital signs and administered appropriate medications to stabilize him. Twenty minutes later, he woke up. Confused and disoriented, Ash looked around the hospital room, trying to piece together what had happened. He saw his father standing beside him who after seeing he was awake approached him with a reassuring smile."You okay?" He asked while rushing to him ."You gave us quite a scare," his father said, relief evident in his voice. Ash nodded, still trying to process everything that had transpired. The doctor stood nearby, ready to provide any necessary explanations or further medical attention. Beta Gri
"You called, your majesty." An old figure with gray hair, a stethoscope hanging from his neck, and a white coat covering his light blue jeans and a light blue shirt walked through the door by pushing it slightly."Yes." Ash mumbled while rising from the bed and turning to face him. "What's the security of this hospital doing?" He asked harshly.The doctor seemed caught up in his sudden question and the harsh tone pressing on his voice. He licked his lower lips and asked him,If you could be clear with what you are trying to say, your majesty, I may be able to answer you." His voice was soft, and his words were carefully picked."My Luna is missing." Ash's eyes sparkled with anger, dissatisfaction, and fear. "Now once again, what's the security of his hospital doing?"The doctor was taken aback by that confession. He swept his gaze across Ash's face, as if hoping to see any sighs of him kidding about all that wrinkling up in his lips as a form of smile, but his eyes were serious. "Ah-"
Karina opened the mansion door, wincing at the biting cold wind that hit her face. She pulled the Marvin over her head to cover her ears and then pinched the black scarf around her neck to tighten it up. With quicker, suspicious steps, she walked to the main gate, where she asked the guard on duty to go back to her room and pick up her car keys, but the moment the guard turned his back on her, she practically sprinted out of the gates while looking at her surroundings to see if anyone had seen her."Jesus!" She screamed, startled by a figure standing behind her who had tapped her shoulder. "You? What are you doing here?" She scratched the back of her head while faking laughter."What am I doing here?" The person was confused. "Mother, are you sure you are okay? You have been looking around for the past minute as if you are afraid someone is following you. Is someone stalking you? Should I call dad?" It was Lakisha who cupped her mother's cheek and rubbed her chin gently, staring consp
