Luke’s POV Carrie looked up at him, her eyes wide with emotion. "Father, I - I don't know what's happening. I'm scared," she admitted, her voice trembling as she continued to channel her healing power into our mother. Alpha Aaron stepped forward, his hand resting on Carrie's shoulder. "You're doing amazing, Carrie. Your gift is a blessing, a true gift from the moon goddess herself," he reassured her, his pride evident in his voice. And together, we watched in awe as our mothers' wounds continued to heal, the golden light surrounding her dissipating as her injuries vanished. She looked peaceful and serene, her breathing steady and calm. As the doctors and nurses stepped back in shock and wonder, Myra turned to us, her eyes gleaming with respect and admiration. "Carrie, your gift is truly a marvel. You have saved our Luna's life today, and for that, we are all grateful." Carrie blinked back tears, her gaze fixed on our mother. "I - I didn't know I could do that," she whispere
Carrie’s POV A few days passed, and I sat in the lounge; my mother sat beside me and placed her hands in her lap, a smile spread across her beautiful face. “Carrie, you are exceptional. I think your mother would be proud despite the differences between me and her. If she were still alive, she would be brimming with pride over how you have turned out.” I smiled, unsure how to respond. I knew the history between my biological mother and Isla. She was the woman who had bought me up and always been honest with me about where I had come from. I knew my mother's name was Mora, and she had been the chosen mate of Isla’s first destined mate, but I didn't know much about my birth father. Mora had messed about with a few people, so nobody had been sure who he was, but he must have been pretty powerful for me to have inherited these powers. "Thank you, mother. Luna Isla," I responded, my voice filled with gratitude and a tinge of sadness. "I appreciate your kind words, and I know my mo
Luke’s POV As I returned from saying goodbye to Carrie and Myra, I decided to head towards the training field and see how it was going. The thing about Blue Mountain is we never gave up training. It was not just my role as future alpha, but it was also something I enjoyed and kept me on a reasonable level. As I approached the training field, I could hear the sounds of grunts and growls, the unmistakable sounds of wolves engaged in rigorous training. The air was charged with energy, the atmosphere buzzing with a palpable intensity and focus. I could see my fellow pack members scattered across the field, their movements swift and coordinated, a testament to their dedication and commitment to improvement. And there, at the centre of it all, stood my father, Alpha Aaron, his piercing gaze fixed on the training session unfolding before him. His presence commanded respect and admiration, his aura radiating strength and wisdom. I felt a surge of pride and admiration for him, knowing
Luke’s POVCaught off guard by my father's directness, I took a deep breath, waiting for whatever challenge my father had planned for me. This was the moment that I had trained for, the moment that would define my legacy as an alpha. "I am ready, Father," I answered, my voice steady as I kept my nerves at bay. "I will do whatever it takes to protect and guide our pack, to uphold our traditions and ensure our prosperity."My father's eyes gleamed with approval and admiration, silently acknowledging his trust in me."My son," his father's voice broke through his reverie, "you have shown great courage and wisdom. I am proud to call you my heir, my successor. Together, we will lead our pack to greatness." Alpha Aaron's tone was suddenly serious as he requested, "Luke, I need you to visit the city for me and observe some rogues rumoured to be causing problems. We can’t have them bringing troubles to our pack.” I nodded, my mind racing about how to approach the task. "Of course, Father.
Isla’s POV As our son left us alone to prepare for his next mission, I turned to my mate, my Alpha. “Are we doing the right thing here?” I questioned him with a hint of uncertainty in my tone. Aaron frowned and grabbed my hand, gently pulling me to his chest. He wrapped his arms around me and kissed the top of my forehead. “My Luna, of course, we are doing the right thing. Luke can handle this, and besides, neither of us wants to have Carrie out of our sights, do we?” He said quietly. He was right, of course. We had always been on edge with what we could and could not allow our daughter to do and go. It was a cruel world that we had both learned the hard way. Since Carrie had shown those healing abilities, I became even more concerned for her safety. Surely, she could understand that we loved her with all our hearts and only wanted what was best for her. She needed our protection, being at risk of harm from anyone deemed an enemy. “So, what will we do?” I turned to face my mate
Luke's POVMy father, Alpha Aaron, stood tall and proud before me as I got ready to bid them my goodbyes. My mother, Luna Isla, stood at his side, her gentle eyes filled with love and concern. And my sister, Carrie, watched silently from the crowd's edge, her expression blank. I knew she wanted to accompany me; we had always been together. However, I knew the risks would be higher if she were to go with me. I wanted to be able to protect her, but I needed to focus entirely on the task my father had set for me. Becoming Alpha would mean proving myself."Father," I began, my voice steady despite my churning emotions. I am ready to depart for the city. I will do whatever it takes to protect our pack and bring honour to our family."Alpha Aaron nodded, his eyes reflecting both pride and concern. "I have every confidence in you, my son. You have been trained well, and I know you will not disappoint us. But remember, your safety is paramount. Do not take unnecessary risks; remember that you
Luke’s POVThe early morning light filtered through the grimy window of my motel room, casting a golden glow over the small space. I stretched, feeling the stiffness in my muscles from the cramped bed. Today was the day I would begin my mission, and I knew I needed to be alert and ready for whatever lay ahead.After a quick shower and changing clothes, I headed into the city's bustling streets. The sounds and smells assaulted my senses, starkly contrasting the peace of the pack lands. I went to a nearby diner, the irresistible scent of bacon and coffee drawing me in.I found a booth near the window and settled in, ordering a hearty breakfast to fuel me for the day ahead. As I ate, I took in the sights of the city waking up around me. Humans, shifters, and other supernatural beings went about their business, and the diversity of life in the town was both overwhelming and captivating.As I finished my meal, a young woman approached my table, a bright smile on her face. She introduced he
Luke’s POV As the first light of dawn peeked through the curtains of Rachel's apartment, I stirred awake, my mind already racing with our plans the night before. Today was the day we would begin our mission, the day we would take the first steps towards confronting the rogue groups that threatened our world. I rose from the couch where I had slept, my muscles stiff from the long planning night. Rachel was already up, a sense of urgency in her movements as she prepared breakfast and gathered the supplies we would need for the day ahead. Her determination was palpable and fueled my resolve to see this mission through.After breakfast, we set out into the city, the morning air filled with anticipation and tension. We had identified several key locations where the rogue groups were known to operate, and our first order of business was gathering information from local contacts and informants.Our first stop was a small diner on the outskirts of town, a nondescript place frequented by shi
