Chapter: Hundred and Sixty nine HAILEYEPILOGUECarter has been the best father to our daughter, Amelia. From the day he found out about my pregnancy, he had been nothing but caring.Every weekend, we always went shopping for baby items, even without knowing the gender of our baby.And when our baby was finally born, Carter's joy knew no bounds. Whenever Amelia cried at night, he'd ask me to rest while he fed her the milk and rocked her to sleep.He even abandoned the company for Xavier in order to be with me and Amelia. He was ever present and I didn't have any complain whatsoever. My only fear was that she'd grow up to be a daddy's girl and forget me.Carter treated our daughter exactly how I wished to be treated by my father. Everyday, when I thought I'd seen the end, Carter would come up with new ways of loving Amelia. I wouldn't be surprised if her first word was his name.After my rebirth, I had never thought I'd find love again. I had given up on it and planned that after carrying out my revenge, I'd start a

Chapter: Hundred and Sixty Eight CARTER"She's really grumpy and demanding but I love every second of it," I said, knotting my tie."I'm sure you do." Xavier replied, "I'd even mistake you for the carrying the child because of how happy and healthy you look," Xavier's comment made me laugh. He was right as I had heard the comment several times. A lot of people said I was enjoying the process of fatherhood way to much and my reply was always the same,"Becoming a father to Hailey's and my child was the best thing that has ever happened to me in my entire years of existence." Though the pregnancy made Hailey act up and become easily irritated with everything including me, I didn't mind. I loved every single moment of it and because of that, I now had a journal where I document each day of her pregnancy. Her food cravings, her likes and dislikes and so much more.Another thing about Hailey was that the pregnancy made her conscious of her body. She'd stand in front of a mirror and comment on how fat and out of shape sh

Chapter: Hundred and Sixty Seven CARTERHailey's behaviour left me worried as this was the first time I had seen her this way. After she threw up, I couldn't help but notice how deathly pale she looked and the fact that she didn't touch her food made me scared.I found it difficult to concentrate as my mind thought of several reasons as to why she looked pale. Perhaps was she sick with a deadly, incurable disease? Due to how deep in thought I was, I didn't notice when Xavier walked in, until he placed a document on my table and muttered, "Earth to Carter.""Oh" I looked at him, "When did you come in?""Not long ago," He replied, taking a seat, "What's on your mind?""Hailey," I replied."What about her?" He asked curiously."I think she's sick.""Why do you have that thought?""Because for the first time ever, she threw up and she looks pale," I sighed, "and when I asked her, she said it's that time of the month. I think she's trying to hide something from me," I placed my elbow on the table and rested my head on it

Chapter: Hundred and Sixty SixHAILEYMy relationship with Carter had improved considerable after the honeymoon proposal. We barely argued and we did everything together. He was the sweetest and the most perfect man for me. I had gotten used to his sweet side which he only used for me alone.Carter and I stood in the kitchen, which had become a regular witness to our intimate sessions. But that wasn't the point. We were baking a bread together for breakfast and we were waiting for it to be ready."Do you think it'll come out great?" I asked even though I already knew the answer. Carter was a great good and I envied him for that quality."Of course," He smiled, "Whatever I whisk up must come out delicious. Chefs kiss" He folded his fingers, brought it to his lips and kissed loudly.I rolled my eyes at him with a smile on his face, "Narcissist," I muttered."It'd be a waste to be this good and not show it off, you know that right?"I threw an ugly face at him and he laughed. "Don't tell me you're jealous?" He wrapped

Chapter: Hundred and Sixty FiveCARTERI stood and stared at the vast expanse of greeny before me.Xavier had told me before hand about Temmy asking me to lead her pack.I knew what she was worried about.Temmy was capable of ruling, but the fear of the Innocent people having to suffer if any mischief came up was the issue.I'd been thinking about it for a while and I decided to finally say it to Xavier.A combined honeymoon, Carter and Hailey, Temmy and I.However we'd have to leave that pack and although the peace was all settled, it'd still take a lot of arrangements to make for a trip like that. "Xavier,"I called from behind as he walked towards me."What are you doing here," I asked and shook my hands." Thank you for accepting Temmy's offer," he thanked and he gave a stoic response."I've something to suggest Xavier," I began and he turned to look at me Interestedly." What is it that you've in stock," he asked as I kept mute."A combined honeymoon," I said and he stood shocked before finally getting a grasp

Chapter: Hundred and Sixty FourTEMMYI lay down on my bed, reminiscing about the relationship between Xavier and me.I shook my head to get rid of the thoughts to no avail, they consumed me whole.I'd been thinking about it the whole day, our relationship, my relationship with him.It felt even more different after the incident that happened last.When he told me that he loved me, I felt my heart thump rapidly but it thumped harder when I saw him losing consciousness in my arms.A Small part of me wanted to stop but I couldn't, I struggled harder to stop the rampage Inside of me.But despite all this, he didn't stop holding, despite the chances that it could be his last chance of survival.A thought clicked in my mind, I'd marked Xavier and he had as well, but I had no memories of doing so.Love was sweet and I ran my hands through the mate mark on my body, smiling like a Cheshire cat to myself.The small date, little Jabments of PDA when we both hadn't confessed our feelings to each other, the thrill that came wit

Chapter: Lily and ViktorLily & Viktor – A Promise of Forever (Zoey’s POV)“You’re late,” Lily whispered, eyes wide as I slipped into the small clearing. She looked breathtaking in a simple cream gown, her hair twisted into soft curls that caught the light like spun gold.“I’m so sorry. Hope kept me,” I said, grinning as I hugged her. “You’re glowing. Like…literally glowing.”Lily rolled her eyes, but her cheeks flushed pink. “It’s just the moonlight.”“No,” I teased. “It’s the vampire fiancé.”Before she could answer, Viktor stepped out from behind a tree. He wore a dark suit that looked pristine, every line sharp and perfect. But the moment his gaze landed on Lily, his whole face softened.The infamous vampire king, reduced to pure awe.“Are you ready?” he asked her quietly, offering his hand.Lily exhaled, nerves flickering across her face before she placed her fingers in his. “I am now.”They walked toward the stone arch at the center of the clearing. It wasn’t a grand ceremony, no crowd, no trumpets. Ju

Chapter: Epilogue CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY ONEEPILOGUEZoey’s POV)“Stop trying to climb out of the basket,” I said, laughing as Hope wiggled her tiny body like a determined pup.Morning sunlight spilled across the meadow outside the Alpha house. We’d brought a small woven basket filled with toys, thinking it would keep her entertained while Graham and I shared a quiet breakfast. Instead, she had decided the grass beyond was far more interesting.Graham leaned down and caught her before she could topple over the edge. “You’re just like your mother,” he teased. “Never stays where she’s put.”I threw a berry at him. It bounced off his shoulder and landed in the grass. “You’re worse. You always follow me when I run.”“That’s not worse,” he said with a grin, settling Hope back in the basket. “That’s loyalty.”Hope kicked her chubby legs, squealing with delight. Her laughter filled the meadow like music. I felt the sound settle deep in my chest, a soft reminder of everything we had fought for.Across

Chapter: Forever PackCHAPTER TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTYZOEY“Look at her, Graham,” I whispered, brushing a curl of dark hair from Hope’s forehead. “She’s growing too fast.”We sat on the wide porch of the Alpha house, the morning sun spilling over the valley. Hope was lying between us on a soft blanket, kicking her tiny feet in the warm light. Beyond the porch, the forest shimmered in shades of gold and green, alive with the calls of birds and the faint hum of workers finishing the last repairs.“She’s not even crawling yet,” Graham said, though his eyes never left her. “You’re the one growing too fast.”I laughed softly and leaned my head against his shoulder. “You sound just like Hannah.”“She’s right,” he murmured. His arm wrapped around me, strong and sure. “I don’t ever want to miss a single moment.”Hope squealed, tiny fists waving in the air. Graham reached down and let her grab his finger. Her grip was small but fierce, and his entire face softened. For a man who had faced wars and betrayals, he melte

Chapter: The Awakening CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED AND FORTY NINE (Zoey’s POV)“Is this really happening?” I whispered as we followed Graham down the quiet hall. My voice sounded small against the stone walls.“It’s happening,” Graham said, but his hand was tight around mine. “Viktor swore the ritual is safe.”The room smelled faintly of lavender and old wood. Luna Velma lay on a low bed, silver hair spread across the pillow like moonlight. She looked peaceful, too peaceful. My chest squeezed. I had seen her many times like this, always still, always untouchable. But tonight felt different.Hannah and Lily were already inside, standing near the wall with worried eyes. Viktor waited at the foot of the bed, his tall frame lit by soft candlelight. His crimson eyes flickered toward us, unreadable.“Are you ready?” Viktor asked Graham quietly.“No,” Graham said, his voice low but steady. “But we have to do this.”Viktor nodded once and looked at me. “You stay close to him. The magic is powerful, but it will not harm yo

Chapter: A new dawnCHAPTER TWO HUNDRED AND FORTY EIGHT(Zoey’s POV)“Careful,” Graham warned for the tenth time that morning as I stepped out of our bedroom.I rolled my eyes but smiled. “I’m walking, not wrestling rogues.”He stayed close anyway, his arm brushing mine as we entered the main hall. The scent of roasted meat and warm bread filled the air. The dining room had been rearranged to fit more people, but the long tables were still half empty. So many warriors were out helping with repairs.I adjusted the baby in my arms. Our daughter slept peacefully, her tiny fingers curling around the edge of the soft blanket Hannah had made. The sound of hammers and saws came faintly from outside, music of a pack rebuilding.Ronald was already at the table, his sleeves rolled up, dried mud streaked across his jaw. “Morning, Alpha. Luna.” His eyes softened when he looked at the baby. “Morning, little star.”“Ronald,” I said with a laugh. “You’re the only warrior I know who coos at a baby.”He shrugged. “She de

Chapter: The birth of peaceCHAPTER TWO HUNDRED AND FORTY SEVEN“Zoey, breathe. Slow and steady.”Hannah’s voice cut through the pain as another contraction ripped through me. I clutched the side of the bed, sweat dripping down my face. My heart raced, but I forced myself to inhale and exhale like she taught me.“I’m breathing,” I panted, gripping the blanket so hard my knuckles turned white. “It just… hurts!”“You’re doing amazing,” Lily said, kneeling beside Hannah. Her eyes were wide but determined. “The baby is almost here. Graham will be back any second.”Another sharp wave made me cry out. Hannah pressed a cool cloth to my forehead. “You’re strong, Zoey. Just a little longer.”The tent smelled of herbs and warm cloth. Outside, voices murmured and feet rushed past. The battle was over. The council was meeting. Viktor and his warriors were preparing to return to their lands. Peace was finally ours, but right now, all I could focus on was the life trying to come into the world.The flap of the tent burst open
