I carried the small bucket of supplies towards the middle of the packhouse and down to the east side where I met charity and the other women waiting for me. When I set down the bucket and sat down on a large Rock next to the well, Charity came to sit beside me.“You don't look so well.’’ she said as she smiled and took my hand. “ Is it pregnancy hormones.’’“I’d wish.’’ I confessed, “I'm just a little worried because of the arrival of all the other Alphas and whether this alliance is going to pull through.’’“Well there's nothing to worry about their my queen because they will be lead by our Alpha.’’ she said reassuringly as she rubbed my back.“And what about me?’’ “What about you, Luna?’’ she stared at me confused trying to figure out what I was saying.“What about me Charity, do you believe in me? does anyone?’’ She stared at me for a long moment. I tried to bury the pain behind my words clenching my fists as I pulled my hand away from hers and tried to contain my emotions. I felt

Taylor’s POV I sat under the tree, fighting the urge to cry. Under the shadow, I felt at peace. I could finally sit with myself and think on my own. Ryan, who was still in the garden having the Alpha’s talk him down from what was an ugly experience, he must have been looking for me again because I noticed the warriors moving around the pack perimeter, their eyes sharp and on the lookout as they passed the message on to one another. My mind reeled back into the beautiful days when Ryan and I first met, down to when things just got weird and bizzare. I was trying to pin down when exactly the change occurred. When he started becoming this other version of himself. My hope was that in that discovery I could understand who the enemy was. Who my husband had met in between to trigger such an ugly change. I picked up the notebook and the pen that sat beside me on the grass. I stared down at the empty page, as my fingers itched to start writing. The truth is, I was tired. And I could not ta

Charity greeted me with a warm smile as I arrived at her doorstep, her eyes full of understanding. "Come in, dear," she said gently, gesturing for me to enter her humble abode.As I stepped inside, the comforting aroma of herbs and wood welcomed me. Charity motioned for me to take a seat by the fireplace, and I gratefully accepted the invitation. The warmth of the flames seemed to mirror the tenderness in her gaze, and I felt my guard lowering as I prepared to share my heartache."Taylor, child, what brings you here?" Charity inquired, her voice soft and soothing.Tears welled up in my eyes, and I took a deep breath, trying to compose myself. "It's Ryan," I began, my voice shaky. "We had a terrible argument, and I can't bear the thought of causing more harm to the pack."Charity nodded understandingly, and her eyes held a knowing glimmer. "Sometimes, my dear, all we need is some space to find clarity and peace," she said gently. "The pressures of leadership can cloud our judgment, and

Ryan’s POVI stepped out of the shower, feeling the cool air on my damp skin. The events of the day had been vague, and I needed some time alone to collect my thoughts. I felt as if I was missing something or perhaps I was forgetting something. I had tried to remind myself of all the events planned for the day. I knew that I had a meeting with the alphas. and that the final decision for whether or not the others would form an allegiance with me was going to be soon. I couldn't stop thinking about it yet at the same time I wondered what I was forgetting. it had to be something important. I am an alpha for crying out loud and I shouldn't be forgetting anything that has to do with the future and survival of my people. As I got dressed, I couldn't shake the feeling of unease that lingered in the pit of my stomach. It is this very feeling that once settled my stomach before my father decided to betray me.Is something bad going to happen? May the moon goddess protect me and my mate.As I s

As I descended the cold stone steps of the dungeon, my heart pounded with trepidation, knowing that confronting Nikita Butane Was equal to living myself open for an attack. she did not like me and I did not like her either. we never started on the right path but at this moment I was desperate and it was true that desperate times calls for desperate measures. I needed to make sure my purpose safe and part of my role as queen was to do whatever it took. even if it meant can I even with an enemy. even if it meant taking the risk and finding out. Nikita's power and influence had been a double-edged sword. Her knowledge and experience were invaluable, but her cold demeanor and disapproval of outsiders made her a threat. ever since Ryan rooted out all the packages that tried to overthrow him, everything has been quiet. there was no longer talk of overthrowing the Alpha and nikita's Influence seemed to have subsided. I was hoping that has Queen I would offer her a part of her freedom or a fa
