Giovanni's Perspective"Hey, here you are!" I greeted Tobias warmly."Yes, Alpha! I came as soon as I heard you needed me," Tobias replied respectfully."How are things going with the pack?" I asked, leaning back in the black leather chair behind the desk."Very well. Perhaps if you're free tomorrow, you'd like to come down and take a look? You'll be pleased with how the pack is doing," Tobias suggested."I would, but I called you here for something else," I continued.Tobias leaned closer, focusing intently. "What do you need, Alpha?"Watching Tobias momentarily tense up made my already pleasant mood even brighter. Yet, he sat there, looking straight at me, making me wonder what he was up to."Why are you looking at me like that?" I asked suspiciously."No offense, Alpha," Tobias began, "but the energy you're exuding is a little unnerving to me. I'm not sure what's going on, but I'm curious."I crossed my arms. "Excuse me

Fern's PerspectiveBright moonlight streamed through the cracks in the heavy curtains around my bed, jolting me awake from slumber. My wolf— the other side of my inner being— felt a pang of pain that I couldn't ignore, forcing my eyes open.I sat up quickly, adjusting my breathing, and listened to the night's silence. Just then, there was a sharp knock at the door, making my heart race with anticipation of impending trouble."Fern, open the door!" Beta Tobias's voice came through, laden with anxiety and panic.I hastily threw on my coat and opened the door. "What's wrong?""Alpha Giovanni has been attacked," worry etched on Beta Tobias's face. "We need your help. He's badly injured."My heart sank at the news. Giovanni was not just the Alpha but my mate, even if our relationship was born out of his revenge plot. Deep down, I couldn't forget the kind man Giovanni used to be when he was my brother.I followed Beta Tobias quickly as he led

Fern's PerspectiveThe next day.At 8:00 a.m., I got out of bed, brushed my teeth, and got dressed. After finishing my night of tending to Giovanni, I desperately needed some relaxing activities to relieve the tiredness and tension within me. Yes, tension.In the morning, when Tobias brought my breakfast, he mentioned that Giovanni seemed to have awakened. However, I recalled my plea to Nuu-Chah, the moon god, last night, and the oath I had taken. Honestly, I wasn't sure how my relationship with Giovanni would unfold with Nuu-Chah's assistance and how it might alter my life later on. It left me apprehensive, feeling unprepared to face Giovanni now that he was awake.I made my way downstairs and out the back door of the manor. Jogging to the forest behind the manor, I found a secluded spot behind a tree where I could strip naked. After stowing my clothes in my bag, I changed into fresh ones and released my white wolf with sapphire

Giovanni's PerspectiveEvery Monday, there was a regular pack meeting, and as the Alpha, I needed to discuss the pack's development and recent events with the core members. Especially with the full moon approaching this month.However, this time, I found myself thinking about what to wear. I usually didn't care about my attire. When one was in a position of power, his subordinates would respect his regardless of what he wore. But today, I wanted to look my best. I put on a white shirt and a silver-gray tuxedo, a color that reminded me of my mate's shiny, soft fur.My brow furrowed gently at the thought of my mate. It seemed like I hadn't seen her since I got up in the morning. This feeling of separation from her made my wolf whimper in discontent."Relax. I promise I'll take you to see her as soon as the meeting is over."I ran my fingers through my dark, thick hair a few times until I was satisfied with my reflection in the mirror. Then, I left the room and
