Indescribable demeanor and everything about the man just scream confidence and supremacy. His presence is acknowledged with high regards by everyone present; paying close attention as the leader looked at his successor.
Alpha King Frey.
A title for the highest persona in Moon Stone; respected and praised for his decades of guidance and wisdom.
“I never heard of this from the last council meeting,” Alpha Frey’s voice, though a bit calmer, sent tension to the two trainees in front while council elders listened.
Tyr had no choice but to report what happened in the forest after knowing that Zane and Keira discovered Moon Valley. He told the alpha of the encounter in the forest, along with the fact that those humans reached their hidden territory. Werewolves have always protected their territory from human discovery to maintain the balance and peace of two worlds. They even protect humans from rogues by neutralizing them after they become new
Zane unconsciously stopped his classmate from reaching his lips with his left hand against Tyr’s chest. However, the contact just made the latter want more. So, he angled his head and aimed straight for Zane’s neck. The scent increased in his nose that it started to trance him for real.Hmm… He had his eyes closed, enjoying the omega’s pheromones emitting directly for him.When he was about to mark him, Zane snapped out from their mixed scent’s intoxication and pushed him away.“I said stop,” he wasn’t mad, only a bit scared. “What are you doing?”“Your scent…”“Keep your scent in, too! Omegas are vulnerable with your pheromones, so please don’t do that again. I don’t want anyone marking me.”Zane remained calm despite his churning stomach from the events. That’s when he remembered something.“Did Zeev mark Keir
Friday came and although the last conversation wasn’t smooth, Zane chose to play with Zeev and Tyr. As planned, the two invited Zane to go to the field but he asked them to leave first. Keira hasn’t been her usual self lately and he wanted to invite his best friend to watch the game.“It’s only one game. It won’t be long.” he insisted.“I’m really sorry, but Theo and I have other plans already.” Keira cutely pouted, albeit a bit pretentious and Zane could definitely tell.So, he didn’t want to push it. “Alright. Take her home after, Theo.”Theo just nodded and smiled before the two exited the room. When they were alone, Theo immediately spoke.“Why are you avoiding Zane?”Keira sharply exhaled. She knew it is so obvious by now. But she couldn’t help it. She’s been conflicted about what happened between her and Zeev last month. She wasn’t sur
Keira feels bad for avoiding his best friend for almost a month now. However, every time she sees Zeev, which is every day, she always remembers and contemplates what happened during Valentines’ Day. She knew she doesn’t like Zeev that way, even letting him mark her after the kiss. Though it was not something she would feel guilty of towards her best friend, Keira still felt like she did something wrong behind Zane’s back.Although she tried her best to act like nothing happened, she stopped visiting and hanging out with Zane outside university. She couldn’t help it. She wanted to clear her head first before coming there again and be back to her usual self. So, after a while and seeing Zane getting along with Zeev and Tyr lately, she thought maybe she was just overthinking things on her own. After all, Zeev never forced anything to her after the kiss, like dating or something. So, she is now on her way to Zane’s house after hanging out with Theo
As the light drains away from the sky, leaving almost all shadow invisible, the moon perceptibly peaks, replacing the sunrays of its glow. Surging breeze created rustling sound of trees in the woods, grasses on the ground, and birds chirping along with it. Discernible howl from the council leader, beta Marcus,gathered the Moon Stone pack in the amphitheater made of centuries stones which they called the Paramount. This revered place is where werewolves come of age, receiving their print for normal wolves, and the beginning of their first turn – normally at the age of sixteen. The pack gradually filled the rising tiers of seats where werewolves sit next to each other regardless of hierarchy. But there are intended areas inside the Paramount for the council elders and members, as well as the seats of the reigning royals of the pack. Gifting of marks and commemorating a wolf’s coming of age have been a special occasion in Moon Valley for both packs although they h
Keira looked at her buzzing phone from the table. She’s with Theo hanging out in the mall after she received a text from Zane asking her to hangout.It’s been days after the confession and when she thought she can shrug it off and act as if nothing happens, unexpectedly, it was hard for her. Her heart breaks even more at the fact that Zane never changed since Valentines’ despite avoiding him until after the confession. Although she also felt bad for always inviting Theo after she rejected him, Keira has no other close friends. But she made it clear to her omega friend that she only likes Zane which Theo just shrugs off being used to it.“Are you really not going to talk to him?” Theo asked.Keira scooped her pistachio ice cream first before answering. “I just need some time. This girl just got dumped by her best friend.”Albeit giggling, Theo can see the sadness in her eyes. So, despite havi
Moon Valley expands beyond the horizon of Moon Stone where the territory of Crescent Luna is located. Between the territories are unclaimed lands – a home to rogues and newborns. As werewolves casted out from their own packs, either voluntary or not, and humans choosing to embrace a totally different kind of creature, they mostly just wandered around; no laws governing them, no leaders who give commands that they need to follow, and no lifelines in the disguise of their mates – or at least they’ve been like that for centuries, but not now.The black wolf returned to somewhere after bearing the stinging mark Tyr put on her which made her surrender in a frustrated defeat. She smoothly turned into her human form and picked up her clothes from the same place she left them while massaging her nape, disgust and irritation written all over her face.But her nose slightly twitched when she smelled the very familiar dominant scent as she continued her tracks i
The semester is about to end. However, Keira felt bad that she’s been avoiding her best friend for quite a while now despite Zane telling her sorry any chance he gets. Not that she completely ignores him, but she’s just feeling awkward being her usual self around him especially after the rejection. She’s trying. However, it’s making her a bit sad that Zane has been spending more time with Tyr and Zeev a lot lately and she’s blaming herself a little for that. Today, she is supposed to go visit Zane’s home, so they can catch up. But she was a little surprise to see Tyr and Zeev outside his best friend’s doorstep. Such sight is not weird, only unexpected. So, she just left when Zane went out of the house and walked with them, Zeev leisurely resting his arm on her best friend like they’re the closest of friends. Meanwhile, it’s the first day of Zane’s training and the werewolves had been a little closer with their human subject after talking about the hunt. Thou
The professor is explaining something about Statistics and Modelling, numbers and formulas related to creating designs and blueprints. But it is all tuned out in Zane’s ears while he keeps his mind on the book he borrowed from the library called ‘The Werewolf Book’. Apparently, this book tells Zane studies of werewolves back in time, evidence of their existence and behaviors of this mythical creature. However, aside from those case studies and other theories, most of what is written in the book are already known to Zane. He was trying to research about the werewolf print Tyr and Zeev told him last time, but that information is nowhere to be found in the book.As he flipped on the next page, Zane’s phone buzzed, and he checked from whom the message comes from after making sure the professor doesn’t see him using his phone. It was from Zeev. His classmate told him that the next full moon will be a week from now. The omega subtly bit his lo
