HECTOR POVI started to feel weak. The poison is killing me. I lost so much blood. Even in pain, all I can think is my mate. I need to make sure that she was alright. Lucas was able to imprint wounds in all other alphas, including Enrico.Horror filled my senses when I saw my uncle Emmanuel dragging my mate. She was just human and helpless. She can't do anything, I need to save her. But the pain is tormenting my body. I can't even stand or move.My chest tightened. I can't believe my uncle just betrayed me. He worked for Lucas, he was the one the bastard was referring to. I thought my uncle was on my side. Why did he do this?Luna looked at me. I could see how worried she was. If only I could run towards her to calm her down.I hate the way Lucas was looking at my mate. I want to pull out his eyes.My uncle pulled Luna towards Lucas. I felt anger rise within me. This is a painful betrayal.My hands balled into fists as I saw Lucas trying to get closer to my mate, so much closer elimin
HECTOR POV The sun shone brilliantly in the clear, blue sky today. Four months after that war, this was the first time I appreciated the beauty of the sky. They said that if you missed someone you love who has passed away, you just need to look up in the sky. They were for sure watching us from heaven. I took a deep breath. Death was inevitable. I look at the tomb in front of me. I place the flowers I brought for her and lit a candle too. I often visit her tomb whenever I missed her. How I wish she was here beside me. I want her to be proud of me. She was the first woman to believe in my capabilities. I will forever treasure and love her. "Mom, wherever you are, I hope you are happy now," I muttered. My mom's tomb was Matilda's tomb. I treated both of them as my mother. I mourned their death. But I can't do anything to bring their life back even though I really want to. My phone rang, it was Stefan. I smiled, he was excited since yesterday. Today is Jasmine's birthday. There's a
LUNA POV I heard noises from downstairs. I feel sleepy at this time. I squint my eyes, the sunlight from my window was blinding me. I pulled my body to get up when the door burst open and Sam came in. He was panting and full of sweat. "Mom, please come with me. It's about Ara and Aya," Sam told me. "What about them?" Sam was my firstborn. He was nine years old now. Just like his father, he was a responsible man. He has pure alpha blood, I know he will be a good alpha of our pack in the future. We both ran downstairs to find my twin girls fighting each other. We pulled them apart. They are like this every day, there could be no moment that they are not fighting. This is a big challenge for me and Hector. It was a headache how to control our twins. Aya was crying now, and Aya just stood in front of us while her arms crossed. She was staring at us with an angry look. "Girls, what happened?" I looked at both of them. "Aya touched my teddy bear, mommy. You know that this is only min
It was April, the sun was yellow like a dandelion in bloom. Six-year-old Luna stayed with her family in a house near the forest for a few days. It was a great time for vacation and her family enjoyed being with nature all the time. She reached for her doll and stepped out with great enthusiasm. As she examined the place, the beauty of the trees attracted her. The forest, even on a sunny day, is like a place of twilight shadows shape-shifting and elusive. She is loving the music created by the trees and the sweet rhymes from the birds chirping. As the young Luna enjoyed the moment in the forest, she heard a painful howl. Being young and curious, she stepped deeper into the woods in search of the unfamiliar sound until she saw something. She was stunned to see a grey wolf in deep pain. The grey wolf was injured. His body was almost drenched in his blood. Luna knelt in front of the grey wolf as she wore her worried look. "Don't worry Mr. Dog, I will help you," as she tried to reach for
LUNA POV I was looking at myself in the mirror wearing a gorgeous white gown. It was like a full-skirted ball gown typically featuring embellishments, sparkles, and beading. I felt pure happiness within me as I looked at my tousled hair pinned with flowers. My makeup was just soft and subtle. It was just enough. Just enough to enhance my natural beauty. I reached for my "Lily of the Valley bouquets." I've never thought this day would come. All I could feel was pure happiness. I glanced at myself once more in the mirror before leaving the room. As I went down the stair, my hands were sweating. I'm a little bit nervous now. I wished my parents were here to witness this important day in my life. How I wish I could hug and kiss them again. As I opened the main door to step outside, the breezy air touched my skin. I felt a creepy feeling as I looked around. In the garden, empty chairs welcomed me. "Where are the people?" I asked myself. My feet lead me to the altar where the groom should
LUNA POVTwo weeks after my brother died, I found myself walking in the downtown area of Ashland, and I'm on my way to the public library. I love the month of April. The cold and breezy temperature is perfect.Walking, I saw a cafe that was Elli's favorite cafe. The flower shop on the opposite road is still there, I worked there last year. I saw a group of men staring at me, the hell did I care.As I crossed the street, I felt uncomfortable. It is like a pair of eyes are looking at me. I looked around, and well, everything was just fine. Maybe it was just a piece of imagination.I arrived at the public library. There were just one or two people inside. The "Keep quiet" sign welcomes me. I turned around to see Mrs. Fox waving at me. She is so nice and friendly. She is the librarian and she always welcomes me with a smile. She would love to touch my face as if she was the happiest person every time our path crossed. She told me that I am like a daughter to
LUNA POVI was so shocked. My body froze. The light in my room was close. I can only see his figure with the help of the moonlight coming from my window."Who are you?" my voice is trembling.I cannot move. I froze where I was standing.He slowly walked closer. I cannot see his face completely but I know he was handsome. He has a muscular and well-defined body shape.His fingers started tracing my cheeks to my lips. His face is closer now."I've searched for you, now I finally found you." his husky voice made me shiver.I need to run away from him but my body doesn't want to move. It is as if, he has full control over my body. I started to feel a different kind of sensation as he started to touch my waist.He coaxed my mouth open with the tip of his tongue, I melted against him.He held me tight, I chuckled at his eagerness.God, I am starting to love what this stranger is doing. I don't have any
LUNA POVI received his message with the address. I don't know the place. I just ask the taxicab driver to bring me to the place. There were drums inside my chest just by thinking of my best friend. Is she in danger?I arrived at the said address. From the road, I walked for a few minutes until I reached an abandoned house. The house looks creepy like the ones I saw in horror movies. It was surrounded by dead trees and plants.The windows are dark.I tried to open the door and I hate its creaking sound.On the inside, the things are filled with dust and cobwebs."Hello, Elli?" my voice echoed. I think there was no one here.I heard a sound, but to my surprise, it was just a rat.My blood started to run cold as I tried to look around the house. I am alone.I heard noises outside. I think it was the sound of snapping twigs. I looked over the window and saw someone standing
