Chapter 21 : laying traps

Serena’s PovThe sun dipped below the horizon, casting a warm golden glow over the village as laughter filled the air. I sat around the fire with Baird’s companions and the villagers. The evening was cheerful, the air thick with the scent of roasting meat and the sound of crackling flames. It was a rare moment of peace and joy, and I cherished every second of it.As the night grew deeper, the villagers began to say their goodbyes. They approached me, their faces lit with gratitude and warmth. “Thank you, Serena. Tonight was wonderful,” said Cervine, one of the villagers. I smiled back, feeling a sense of belonging that was still new and exhilarating.Just then, Baird stood up, his commanding presence drawing everyone’s attention. “Wait,” he said, his voice steady and kind. “Before you go, my warriors will escort you home and share some of the meat we have stored.”A murmur of surprise rippled through the villagers. “Oh no, Baird, we can’t accept that,” Cervine protested,

Chapter 22 : Bonds Forged in the Wild

Serena POV As the sun began its slow descent, casting a warm golden hue over the rugged landscape, I stood at the edge of the village, taking in a deep breath. Today was crucial. The children, or pups as they were affectionately called here, had been skeptical of me from the start. As an outsider and a member of the Pack Alliance, I was an anomaly in their tight-knit world. But today, I was determined to win them over. I gathered the pups in the clearing, their curious eyes following my every move. The clearing was a sun-dappled expanse of grass and wildflowers, surrounded by towering trees that whispered secrets in the breeze. The youngest pup, barely able to toddle, clung to the hand of an older sibling, while the eldest stood with their arms crossed, a curious eyebrow raised. Their expressions were a mix of boredom, curiosity, and suspicion, a challenge I was eager to tackle. There were about a dozen of them, each with their unique quirks. One of the pups, a girl with wild

Chapter 23 : Oil and Water

Serena's POV The dawn's first light filtered through the gaps in the wooden shutters, casting a soft glow in the room. As I was laying in bed, staring at the ceiling, my mind was awash with thoughts of Baird. Sleep had been elusive, my dreams filled with his face, his voice, his touch. The night had done little to diminish the whirlwind of emotions swirling within me. I finally rose, pulling a shawl around my shoulders to ward off the morning chill. The small, rudimentary cottage was still and quiet, the only sound the gentle crackling of the dying embers in the hearth. I moved to the window, pushing open the shutters to let in the fresh morning air. The sky was painted in hues of pink and gold, a beautiful reminder of the new day dawning, yet it did little to lift the heaviness in my heart. My mind was a whirlpool of confusion and conflicting emotions. The primitive yet warm life in the Storm Pack had grown on me, and the people, despite their rough edges, had become a part

Chapter 24 : Crimes of passion

Serena’s PovThe dense forest was eerily silent as Baird and I made our way through the transition region. The air was heavy with the scent of pine and earth, and every snap of a twig beneath our feet sounded like a thunderclap in the stillness. We were both on edge, knowing full well the dangers that lurked not just in the shadows but in the open daylight as well. I glanced at Baird, his jaw set in a determined line. His presence was a comfort, but it didn't quell the growing unease in my stomach. Suddenly, I caught sight of a group of warriors moving toward us through the trees. My heart skipped a beat when I recognized the leader—Marcus. Marcus had a personal vendetta against both of us. He was the one who had nearly ended my life on the execution ground. His eyes burned with malice anytime I saw him, and I knew we were in trouble. If they caught us here, in this forbidden zone, it would be the military court for us—on charges of treason, no less."Baird," I whispere

Chapter 25 : Caught in my own web

Serena’s POVThe cold, iron grip of Marcus's hand tightened around my arm as he dragged me through the dimly lit corridor. Beside me, Baird was shoved forward by another warrior, his jaw set in a grim line. The torches lining the walls flickered, casting eerie shadows that danced like specters, adding to the sense of impending doom."You both think you can pull a stunt like that and get off scot-free?" Marcus snarled, his voice echoing off the stone walls. "You think your actions have no consequences?""Marcus, please, you don’t understand—" I began, my voice trembling, but he cut me off with a harsh laugh."Understand? What I understand is that you've brought nothing but problems for our pack, and you should be punished for it." He shoved open the heavy wooden door of the dungeon, the hinges creaking ominously.Baird, who had been silent until now, finally spoke up. “Marcus, It's not that big of a deal; it all happened in the spur of the moment. Serena’s done noth

Chapter 26 : CONFUSION

Serena’s POVThe moment we stepped out of the headquarters, I was still reeling from the whirlwind of events that had just transpired. My mind was a chaotic storm of thoughts and emotions, each one vying for dominance. How had a simple misunderstanding led us to this point? I glanced at Baird, hoping to find some semblance of clarity or reassurance in his expression, but his face was set in a hard, unreadable mask. "Baird, I—" I began, my voice barely more than a whisper. He cut me off with a slight shake of his head, his eyes darting to the warriors surrounding us. It was clear that this was not the time nor the place for a conversation of this magnitude. As we made our way to the waiting vehicle, a warrior I didn't recognize approached us. He was tall and broad-shouldered, with a friendly demeanor that starkly contrasted with the tension radiating from Baird. "Congratulations, Baird!" the warrior exclaimed, clapping Baird on the shoulder with a camaraderie that suggested

The air was filled with the scent of pine and freshly turned earth, mingling with the anticipation that radiated from every villager and warrior alike. They had waited so long for this moment—Baird, the formidable warrior of the Storm Pack, had finally found his mate. And that mate was me, Serena. I stood beside Baird, feeling the weight of their expectations weighing me down. Their smiles were broad, their eyes twinkling with joy as they promised to help us prepare the grandest engagement ceremony the Storm Pack had ever seen. It was as if the entire village had been waiting for this moment, and now that it was here, they were determined to make it unforgettable. Every werewolf from near and far would be invited, transforming our small village into the epicenter of celebration and unity.

Chapter 28 : Unexpected Reunion

Serena’s PovI stood there, frozen, as the murmur of the crowd around us grew louder. My eyes were fixed on the girl who had just barged into the engagement ceremony. She was pretty, no doubt about that, with striking features that seemed to catch the light, and an aura of confidence that pulled everyone's gaze toward her like a magnet. Her dress was a deep shade of red, contrasting sharply with the pastel colors of the decor. It was as if she had stepped out of a different world and into ours. But who was she?Kevin, always the curious one, was the first to voice what we were all thinking. “Baird, who is that girl?” he asked, his voice tinged with confusion and curiosity. His eyebrows were knit together, and he kept glancing between Baird and the girl, waiting for an explanation.Baird’s companions, usually so composed and unflappable, now exchanged puzzled glances. Their usual air of confidence was shattered, and their faces mirrored the same confusion that everyone el

Chapter 29 : At the bottom of the bottle

Baird’s POVWhen I finally returned, the scene before me was a disheveled mess that mirrored the turmoil in my heart. The yard was strewn with rolling wine bottles, crumpled napkins, and other remnants of the night's revelry. Most of the guests had long since departed, leaving behind a trail of chaos that spoke volumes about the evening's events. Only some of my closest companions remained, sprawled across the lawn and furniture, lost in their drunken stupor.Kevin, the only one still awake, met me with a weary look of regret etched on his face. “I’m sorry, Baird,” he said, his voice laden with guilt. “I tried to stop her, but Serena wouldn’t listen.”I shook my head, waving off his apology. “It’s not your fault, Kevin. Thank you for staying with her.” I glanced at the others, slumped and snoring softly. “Can you drive them home?”Kevin nodded, a flicker of relief passing over his features. “Of course, but are you sure you’re okay? You look like you’ve been through the wr

Chapter 30 : Unexpected Confessions

Serena's POV I still hadn’t fully grasped the extent of the situation, I focused my mind trying to remember what happened last night. It worked. And the events of last night came rushing back like a flood. I couldn’t believe it. I had slept in the same bed with him. And I wasn't wearing my old clothes. Panic surged through me. What happened to us last night? Had there been anything between us? The questions buzzed in my mind like an angry hive of bees. But then, a sharper memory pierced through the confusion—Baird leaving with another girl, Alexia. The nerve of him! Abandoning me, only to come back and sleep beside me as if nothing had happened. My anger flared up, burning hotter with every passing second. How could he be so callous? So indifferent to my feelings? I grabbed the nearest pillow, my grip tightening around it, and without thinking, I brought it down on him with all my might. "Wake up, you lying, deceitful rat!" I yelled, my voice a mixture of fury and betrayal as
