Serenity

I messed up big time listening to my father, a man who hasn't been a part of my life for 21 years.

How could I be so stupid?

When those bullets hit me, I knew I would never see Tay again and apologize for my stupidity. Who was going to bridge the gap between the supernatural beings? I failed both missions assigned to me.

I floated in the dark realms for what seemed like hours, with no lights, no voices, just total silence.

After floating around for so long, a bright white light appeared, and this comforting sensation settled around me. I felt her presence before I saw Selene.

Not letting a word of disappointment come from her, I crawled to her and held the hem of her silky-smooth dress in my hands, snot running out of my nose, blurry vision, and a hoarse voice.

“Please send me back; I am begging you, Moon Goddess. Tay needs to know that I'm sorry. He didn't deserve this.” Selene kneeled down and cleaned my face with a handkerchief.

“It's too late, Serenity. He's already he

    Serenity After weeks of physical therapy, I was released from the hospital. I had mobility back in my legs, and my wounds were healed. We arrived outside of Embermoon Steakhouse, and I was ecstatic. The restaurant was how I remembered it. The aroma of sizzling steaks and fresh herbs filled the air. Tay led me to the conference room, and at the table sat my closest friends, including Jordyn. I haven't seen or heard from Jordyn since I left for New Moon. A welcome home banner hung on the wall, and a gift basket was on the table.Jordyn and Camila rushed from their seats into my arms, forcing me to lose my balance. I stumbled over my feet, falling into Tay's chest. A low growl erupted, and Tay snapped, "Careful, you two. She's still recovering.” They retreated, giving me a second to find my bearings. “I'm fine, Tay. It was an accident.” “Smurf, I'm glad you are doing better. I missed the hell out of you.” Corey hugged and kissed me. Lukas just smiled and waved. He was the quiet on

    Javonte Jasper sensed danger in the crisp night air, and following his instincts, he bolted towards the mumbled screaming. The urgency in his stride mirrors the adrenaline coursing through my veins. We made it to the deepest part of the territory. The frightening screams, watching the chaos unfold right in front of me. I spotted a lone wolf; it wasn't a rogue, but a pack wolf. Another pack was brave enough to challenge my father's authority as Alpha. We circled each other, growling and snarling. Despite my warning, the lone wolf didn't retreat at my threatened tone or dominance. The wolf lunged forward, sidestepping his attack, and with a swift motion, I sliced down its chest. A whimper of pain left his mouth. Ripping him backward by his hind legs as he tries to escape. He reverted to his human form, his hands raised and surrendering. “WHAT PACK ARE YOU FROM?” I demanded, my voice laced with authority. Through the coughs of blood, he managed to utter, “Slasher Pack.” With

    Javonte But what I wasn't expecting was to hear another voice, "Your family member was in an accident. Come with a doctor and no one else." The female voice on the other end seemed caring. However, I was a little skeptical about why she wanted me to come alone. I quickly jotted down notes and requested a pack doctor to journey with me to this unknown address. We arrived outside a rustic cottage deep in the forest; nestled among tall, whispering pines. The scene was almost surreal, like stepping into a different era. An older woman was sitting on the porch swing, seemingly anticipating our arrival. She stood up and, without a word, opened the door and ushered us in. The atmosphere inside the cottage was warm but carried an air of mystery. "Doctor, the young lady is in the last room on the left." The doctor glanced at me briefly before walking away. "Thank you, Ma'am, for taking care of my fiancée. Here's some money for the trouble we caused." I produced a check for ten thousand d

    I woke up with electrifying tingles covering my body and Tay's mouth-watering spearmint scent surrounding me. Rolling over and facing him, placing tiny kisses on his lips. A hum of satisfaction left his mouth. Untangling from his embrace, the sun shines brightly in my bedroom.Wait, when did I get home?My body was extremely sore, and my head was pounding. I felt around and felt gauze wrapped around my head. I must've banged my head harder than I realized. “You have a concussion and staples in your head, hot stuff.” Tay stopped me from removing the bandages. Leaning down and kissing him, our lips meet in desperation and a need for reassurance. Our tongues clash with each other, seeking dominance. We broke apart, panting and breathless, the intensity of the moment lingering between us."What happened?" I asked, my head still pounding away like a beating drum. Tay's demeanor changed. He steadied his breathing, searching for the right words to say, "Slasher Pack attacked my pack, and y

    I sat at the table, twiddling my thumbs, watching the clock tick away. After five minutes went by and Luna Ashley still hadn't returned, I gathered our belongings and headed towards the restroom.On the way there, I spotted Luna Ashley chatting with an old woman and Headmistress Toya. The way they were speaking suggested they had known each other for a long time. The sight of them together piqued my curiosity.I arrived just in time to overhear the old woman saying, “They already know about Serenity and Javonte. The coven will seek Javonte out when he needs them the most. Serenity is special. Take good care of your daughter-in-law. She is fragile but a great leader.”I cleared my throat, linking my arm with Luna Ashley and greeting the ladies at the table. Was this the same woman who saved me, and is she a hybrid? How does she know Luna Ashley?Before I finished analyzing my thoughts, Luna Ashley formally introduced us: “This is Kyle's mother, Gemma, also the former headmistress of th

    Javonte We strolled inside the steakhouse. I had reserved the conference room for the meeting. Checking the audio and video surveillance setup in the room, I ensured everything was ready before ordering a variety of appetizers. The room was dimly lit, with a large oak table at its center and plush chairs surrounding it. The smell of grilled steak and fresh bread wafted through the air, mingling with the scent of anticipation. The food arrived, followed shortly by Alpha Debbie and her security team. The moment she stepped across the threshold, the atmosphere turned intense, charged with a distinctive electricity. Alpha Debbie’s eyes nearly popped out of their sockets when she saw Serenity sitting next to me, her presence a deliberate provocation. “Welcome, Alpha Debbie.” I stood up from my seat with my hand held out, maintaining a facade of politeness. She shook my hand and smiled back. “My pleasure, Alpha Javonte. I didn’t expect you to bring your plaything to the meeting with

    Serenity The first snow of the winter, a thin layer blanketing the ground, I sat on the couch wrapped in a blanket, drinking hot cocoa, and flipping through catalogs. Tay had gone home to prepare for our winter wonderland inauguration, slash wedding. After a six-month standstill with no new leads or thoughts on what to do about the prophecy, Alpha Louis thought it was best to make Tay and myself the official leaders of Meadowood. The pressure of leadership loomed over me, but today, the excitement of the upcoming wedding was all I could dwell on. As I sipped my cocoa, a knock on the door stopped me in the midst of searching for the perfect gown. My friends, Jordyn and Camila, burst in, their cheeks pink from the cold and their eyes sparkling with excitement. "We're here to help you find the perfect dress!" Camila announced, holding up a stack of bridal magazines. Jordyn grinned and handed me a steaming cup of tea. "We’ve got appointments at a few boutiques in town. It's going

    Serenity The cold winter air nipped at my cheeks as I stepped out of the cab, pulling my coat tighter around me. Snowflakes danced under the streetlights, settling softly on my hair. I glanced up at the neon sign of the Dark World nightclub, where our combined bachelorette and bachelor party were being held. The idea was unconventional, but Tay and I had always done things our way. I pushed through the doors into the warm, thrilling atmosphere of the nightclub. The thumping bass synchronized through my chest as I navigated the crowded room, scanning for familiar faces. Just ahead, I spotted a cluster of our friends, already in full swing. Camila waved excitedly, her sparkly dress shimmering under the lights. I weaved through the crowd to the VIP section, shedding my coat and letting the warmth of the room envelop me. Camila threw her arms around me, her infectious energy pulling me into the party spirit. "Where's Tay?" I asked, glancing around. "He's at the bar with the guys," sh

    Serenity The hospital room was quiet except for the soft hum of the monitor and the faint cries of newborns down the hall. The sterile scent of antiseptic mixed with the faint sweetness of tulips, a gift from Jordyn, who had enchanted the bouquet to ward off negative energy. Amethyst Aurora Lemon lay swaddled in my arms, her tiny features peaceful as she slept. She had a shock of dark hair and the most delicate fingers, already clutching onto my heart with a grip stronger than I ever imagined possible. Tay stood by my side, his eyes never leaving her face. He looked exhausted but awestruck, as though he couldn’t believe this tiny miracle was ours. “She’s perfect,” he murmured, his voice thick with emotion. I smiled, feeling a rare moment of peace despite the shadows that had been haunting us. For now, everything felt right. But peace never lasted long. A cold breeze swept through the room, extinguishing the soft glow of the enchanted tulips. Tay stiffened immediately, his

    Serenity The tension in the house felt like a living thing—coiled, suffocating. Tay had been restless since I returned from Embermoon, and I couldn’t blame him. The bracelet and figurine still sat in the vault, their presence like a thorn under my skin, but it was the lingering unease in my chest that haunted me the most. And now, Tay was pulling away. He tried to hide it, but I could feel the shift. His wolf, Jasper, prowled closer to the surface, radiating protectiveness and fear. I knew he wanted to tear the world apart just to keep me and our daughter safe. But this wasn’t something he could fight with claws and fangs, and that terrified him. I sat on the couch, my hands cradling my swollen belly, trying

    Unknown Person The lavish hotel suite was draped in silk and velvet, its dim lighting casting shadows across the ornate furnishings. The faint crackle of the fireplace filled the room as the man leaned back in his leather chair, cradling the newborn in his arms. The baby stirred slightly but didn’t cry, his tiny hands curling into fists as if already prepared to fight the battles that awaited him. The man’s sharp, angular features softened as he gazed down at his son. “He will be strong,” he murmured, brushing a finger along the baby’s smooth cheek. The woman, poised and regal, watched from the chaise lounge with a calculating expression. Her emerald eyes gleamed as she sipped from a glass of crimson wine. “He will be more than strong,” she said, her voice smooth as silk. “He will be unstoppable.” A knock at the door interrupted them.

    Javonte The desk was a mess; papers scattered, the lamp shattered on the floor, but I couldn’t care less. My chest was still heaving, my pulse thundering in my ears while I gripped the phone, staring at the blank screen like it might suddenly come to life. Voicemail. Again. I squeezed the phone so hard my fingers ached, Jasper growling just beneath my skin, restless and ready to fight whatever threat had put Serenity in this state. Her fear had slammed into me so suddenly, so violently, that it had ripped through every wall I’d built to keep my wolf in check. I’d felt her rage first, sharp, and burning. And then the fear had swallowed it whole. A helpless kind of fear. The kind that made my stomach drop and my vision bleed red. I pressed my palm against my chest, where the bond between us pulled tight, throbbing like an open woun

    Serenity Of course, we weren’t ready. How could we be? I was nearly due to give birth, my body heavy and slow with the life growing inside me. Magic was out of the question—my reserves drained, my focus scattered. And fighting? That wasn’t even an option. The dirt from the last battle was barely settling, and here we were again, staring down the barrel of yet another unknown threat. Tay’s doubts about the witches stung more than I wanted to admit. How could he even entertain the idea that they were a danger to us? They had been nothing but loyal, their magic instrumental in rebuilding Meadowood and protecting our borders. And beyond their contributions, their presence had brought us closer as a pack. Wolves who once distrusted magic now found their mates among the witches. We were stronger together, weren’t we? The tension between Tay and me lingered in my chest like a weight I couldn’t shake. I needed clarity and answers that would hopefully put his fears to rest. If Elder Ton

    Javonte The bracelet felt heavier in my pocket than it should have, its strange energy prickling against my skin even through the fabric. The obsidian-eyed wolf figurine was tucked in the same pocket, its edges smooth and cold. I didn’t understand why, but both objects unsettled me in a way I couldn’t shake. After breakfast, I made my way to River Valley Pack to visit Elder Tony. He was wise beyond his years, a repository of wolf history. If anyone could decipher the meaning behind these objects, it was him. The morning air was crisp, and the packhouse buzzed with activity as wolves went about their daily routines. The drive there was uneventful, just a blur of trees. I had the music on jazz to keep my mind focused on the road ahead. But as I reached River Valley, the unease in my chest grew stronger. Something wasn’t right, and I couldn’t ignore it. When I arrived, I knocked once before entering. Elder Tony looked up from a leather-bound book at his office desk, his sharp gray e

    Serenity I let exhaustion claim me, and I drift off to sleep, basking in the electrifying tingles of Tay's proctection. I feel this a soft, warm presence in my mind. A tiny, childlike voice whispers, “I’ll protect you, Mama. But they’re coming for us.”I jolts awake, realizing my unborn daughter was warning me. The next morning, we hosted a memorial celebration. The air was thick with the bittersweet scent of incense and wildflowers, a mixture that carried a weight of remembrance and hope. I stood beside Tay in the graveyard, my hand resting protectively over my growing bump while we faced the pack. Meadowood was finally whole again. A sanctuary rebuilt from ashes, with stronger borders and an unyielding sense of unity. Today's memorial celebration wasn’t just for those we lost; it was a declaration that we had survived and would honor their sacrifices.The statue, carved from shimmering white stone, stood tall in the center of the graveyard. It depicted a wolf howling at the moon,

    Serenity I opened my eyes, meeting his gaze while we stood in the ultrasound room. Tay was watching me, his eyes full of love and something else. Something I couldn’t put a name to. I wasn’t sure what had changed in him these past few weeks, but I knew he was waiting for me to open up, to let him in. And in this moment, I finally felt ready to do that. “I’ve been a terrible partner,” I began softly, my voice barely a whisper, as if the words might break me if I said them too loudly. “I’ve been shutting you out when all you’ve ever done is try to help me.” My breath hitched, and I looked down at the ultrasound printout in my hands, clutching it like a lifeline. The tears that had been threatening to spill finally broke free, spilling down my cheeks. I hadn’t realized how much I had been holding back until now.The sound of the heartbeat echoed in my mind long after we left the clinic. It was like a lifeline tethering me back to reality, pulling me from the dark place I’d been trap

    Javonte The night we returned to Meadowood felt heavy, the air thick with unspoken grief and unanswered questions. Serenity had barely said a word since we’d left the grove, and when we arrived, she bolted towards our tent without looking back. Through our bond, I felt the raw edge of her heartbreak, her longing to feel our daughter’s warmth again. Her emotions surged through me like a tidal wave—her pain, her exhaustion, and the weight of the destiny she had never asked for. It was unbearable, and all I wanted to do was take it away from her. But I knew better than to chase after her right now. Serenity needed space to process everything. She always had. So, instead of following, I stayed behind to handle the responsibilities she couldn’t bear at the moment. The pack had gathered near the bonfire to continue the celebration—or what was left of it. The mood had shifted dramatically since our abrupt disappearance earlier that evening. I forced a smile, my mind racing for the ri
