Martains POVI allowed myself to bask in Luciana's scent. It gradually followed me till I slumped on my bed like a dead log of wood."Goodnight." This was the only word I said to her before closing my eyes in deep slumber in her arms.....Just before dawn, I woke up. On other days, I wake up at dawn to carry out my daily morning routines.I woke up with arms wrapped around my torso and slender, long legs tangled in mine. It took me a while to realize that I wasn't in my bed alone and the memories of last night came rushing back.I looked at Luciana and then down to her stomach. I felt nothing much but for the sake of our child and the effort she has shown in being by my side through all these times, I might as well consider that.Untangling myself from Luciana, she snuggled herself deeper into my neck but I gently removed her hands and legs and got up.I dressed up lightly and went down to the pack's gym to relieve myself.As I kept swinging punches at the punching by, I thought abou
Lance POV"What did you just say? You found the commander, my wife, Olivia?" I asked repeatedly to make sure I heard him well."Yes, beta. We are still at the border with her." He replied."Just wait there, I'm coming over to see for myself." I said before closing the mindlink and hurrying out to confirm if it was really Olivia, my wife.I pray to the moon goddess that she is the one. I have been through a lot of hell for the past two years without her.Searching frantically over the place and over different packs for even a scent but there was no trace anywhere.She disappeared without a trace during a fight between a rival pack and ours. She had just given birth then and was too weak to fight but she joined in the fight nevertheless.Up till this day, I regret that decision of allowing her fight. If I had strongly refused, my dear wife would never have gone missing, leaving our new born child and me alone.I kept walking briskly at first but started running. Everyone I passed by loo
Ashley/Olivia's POV"Oh! My dear Olivia. It's good to have you back. We've searched all over for you. I have to a lot questions to ask." This lady that came in kept rambling from one point to another non stop."Shhsh! Eloise, calm down. She just got back and needs some time to rest and not noise ringing in every corner of her ear." Beta Lance who was sitting by my side spoke now."Huh! Are you calling me a noise maker now? In fact, why didn't you tell me you had seen my friend? I only got wind of the news spreading round town and rushed down here.""Well, I was about to tell you. My bad! Pardon me, okay?" Waving his hands in the hair in a bid to explain himself, he said with a rather apologetic tone."I'll let this slide because of this joyous moment." She replied, giving in to his plea."Where is my friend? Where is Olivia?" She asked, not noticing I had been sitting here all this while."Do you have some eye defects?" Lance asked in a sarcastic tone.It was then she saw me and reali
Ashley's/Olivia's POVI felt a tap on my shoulders and something tugging at my legs. As I turned to look back, a bright light shone brightly on my face. I was blinded by the light for an instant and tried to scream but I heard an alluring voice in my head."Come to me, dear. Your wishes are granted. This is a new opportunity, use it well." The light started to recede and I felt my head lurch in the darkness that had now overwhelmed the whole place. I was about to scream when I woke up with a gasp only to realize I had been dreaming."What is it? Are you okay?" I heard another voice ask me.Where is that voice coming from? I turned to see two eyes peering at me in the dark. I was taken aback and tried to turn on the light by the bedside but couldn't find it.The eyes moved closer and closer until they crossed over me and a hand turned on the light by my side.My heartbeat rate only reduced back to normal when I saw the face and that it was Lance."What are you doing here on the bed, b
Lance POVThe morning was usual as always but the joy of having my wife around was contagious making my day look slightly different from previous days.I can't begin to recount all the hardships and long process of search I went through to look for my wife. I had tried all my best and every other means under my sleeves I could use but it was futile.Since Silver tail pack is not a very big place or pack as other neighbouring packs, I combed the whole land in just few days. Those days were terrible days of my life.Seeing no trace of her in Silver tail pack, I moved my search to neighbouring pack sometimes in disguise, sometimes in the open with the company of warriors from my pack. Still, there was no trace.I traveled far and wide to bigger packs and even crossed over to the human territory but she was still not in sight. During those times, Eloise strongly supported me. She took care of my little Adrian whom my wife left with her to look after before her disappearance. At a point,
Martains POV"I have made up my mind to announce her as my Luna and not even you, Carl can change it." I said, this time decisively.He looked at me with some kind of pity in his eyes. I still do not understand why he is strongly against Luciana. Even right from when Ashley was alive and they were both friends, Carl never for once agreed with Luciana on anything. They were like cat and rat."Look, you are my very good friend and alpha of this whole pack and I would not advise you wrongly. You can't take Luciana as your Luna. She is a mischievous person who would go to any length to get what she wants. She'll only ruin you." Beta Carl said trying to make his point clear to me."That's the very reason you should support me and not counter me if you see me as a friend.""I can never support what is wrong. I am trying to make you see the truth.""What exactly is the reason? Don't tell me you are scared she would make you pay for all the troubles you have caused her when she becomes the Lu
Lance rushed up to support the now frozen Ashley. He touched her forehead and it was burning hot. Lance held her in his hands, feeling confusion and fear rising inside him."Somebody, call the doctor." He yelled.The doctor came quicker than expected. Ashley was taken upstairs and laid on the bed in her room. The doctor examined her and gave her some drugs to stabilize her condition."Doctor, what happened to my wife? Why did she suddenly run a high temperature like that and how is she now?""Beta, she is fine now and the drugs I just gave her will stabilize her for now and she will be completely fine in no time.""Okay, but what was the cause of the sudden hot temperature?""Uhmm, it's a reaction to something. She must have been thinking a lot to the extent it affected her body system. She needs to rest a lot." The doctor said."Thank you, doctor." Lance and the doctor shook hands."I'll come see her again tomorrow morning." The doctor said and took his leave.Ashley made a move to g
In her last life Ashley had never really enjoyed this kind of treatment. It was surreal to watch everybody staring at her in awe.Ashley's blue crystal eyes were filled with a mysterious allure as she gazed at the people watching her. Ashley looked stunning and beautiful and she knew it.Eloise had done a perfect work indeed.With each step she took down, she looked for Lance in the crowd. She spotted him just before she took her last step down.He was watching her with so much sparkle in his eyes. "He must have loved Olivia so much. I can see it in his eyes but it's unfortunate I am not Olivia." Ashley thought within herself.She gave him a gentle smile and he walked towards her with smiles all over his face.Right when he reached her and held her hands, the door to hall opened, making the crowd hush.A group of men walked inside with an air of authority. The crowd recognized the foremost man in front as alpha Greg with his bodyguards behind. The Silver Tail pack's alpha has arrived
