Karn’s POV“How can she be gone?” I roared at my warriors. “She was sedated! You’re telling me you can’t keep track of a tiny little SEDATED she-wolf?” How stupid can they be? My warriors coward in fear, they had ruined my plan. The doctor was going to do a c-section and then once that was finished, I was going to have my way with Aura. I knew it would take a little while for her to heal but after that, I would impregnate her, and we would welcome our pup into the world together. Now, thanks to the idiots I have to get her back again.“Alpha, we are sorry, they attacked us. It wasn’t like it was only a couple of wolves, there was a ton of them, and,” his voice trailed off.“And what!” I snarled.The warrior coward again, “Alpha Draven was leading them.”“That’s impossible, you told me he was dead.” I could feel my wolf wanting to take control, he wanted to kill all of them on the spot.“We, we, we knew he was dead, I watched him bleeding out.” My warriors stammered.“Did you watch him
Alpha Draven POVI smiled as Aura pulled me close, she kissed my lips and I felt like I could soar. I had missed her so much. I held on to her tight as though she may disappear. She snuggled back into me, holding her was heaven. I kissed the top of her head as we lay there exhausted from our lovemaking.The doctor had released her a couple of days ago, on the ride home, she had aroused me enough to make me nearly take her in the car. It was obvious she had missed me too. I smiled as I felt her belly against me. It wouldn’t be too much longer until we met our twins. I felt like I was living a dream.Aura suddenly sat up, “you, ok?” I asked worry laced my tone. She shook her head yes. She settled back down, ten minutes passed, and she sat up once again, this time a whimper escaped her lips. I sat up; I gently rubbed her back; “Baby what’s wrong?” I felt panic rising in me.“Aura, pain,” she said holding her belly.“You’re in pain?” I asked fear replacing the panic. She nodded yes. I got
Aura’s POVI felt another pain coming, the doctor was sitting by my feet waiting for the first head of my pups.“Aura, push with this contraction, I will count down. Five, four, three, two, one, push!” he said as I pushed with all of my strength trying to expel my pups from my body.“Almost, I saw the top of a head, one more time, are you ready?” he asked.I didn’t bother to answer, I was so tired. I have to do this twice, I sucked in a breath as another contraction began its climb. I pushed hard this time knowing my wolf was helping as best as she could. This time, I heard a baby cry, it was the most beautiful sound I had ever heard. Tears fell from my eyes, not from the pain, but from the love I felt for this tiny little life.“Congratulations, Luna, and Alpha, you have a son!” the doctor exclaimed as he handed my son to a nurse. Draven was looking over to watch what they were doing with our son. He looked back at me, and I was surprised to see the tears trickle down his face.“Aura

The next few days felt like a dream, Ember and Falcon ate and slept but mostly, they stole our hearts. Draven was so careful with them. He was always running about checking on them and me. I didn't know it was possible to love someone so much in such a short amount of time. We were getting ready to leave the pack hospital and return to the safe house. Only a few knew we were heading to a much more secluded place. Now that the twins were here, word of their birth had spread quickly. I knew Draven would keep us safe but the threats against them had already started. The pack war continued meaning we were not safe. "How are you feeling?" Draven's voice interrupted my thoughts. I smiled, "Aura ok," I said. My wolf had healed me from birth soon after I delivered my pups. "I think I have everything packed and ready to go. We will be deep in the forest, there won't be anyone around. Only three others know where we are going," Draven explained. I knew he would do anything to protect us.
Why now? I raced along the path heading to my control center. I was helping Aura with diaper changes when the alarm went off. I knew it wasn't a dire emergency but I had to go. I knew Karn was lurking out there waiting for his moment to strike. I nearly ripped the door off the hinges when I realized I was letting my anger get the best of me. Inside, all eyes were on me. I looked down noticing bits of fur springing from my skin. "Alpha, what happened? Are you alright? Are the twins and Aura alright?" Valerie asked, fear on her face. "What? No, nothing happened, everything is fine." I tried to calm my wolf as I tried to get the fur to dissipate. "What is the alarm about? You said there was an attack?" I said coming back to my senses. "Yes, Alpha, our neighbors have suffered a huge attack. There is talk the entire pack may have been wiped out. The reports from our scouts said they had not found any survivors. It seems we may have lost another pack." "Who is it?" I waited, my wolf wa
I paced around my office. How had this happened? Brightmoon was supposed to be eliminated! I knew Oren was dead but that bitch Adina had lived. I wanted them dead! My own brother had betrayed me in the name of the mate's bond! Ha! I would kill them all! My brother would watch me kill his mate! I will rip out her throat! I heard someone at the door, "What!" I snarled. The door opened revealing my Beta. "Well? How many survived?" I growled. "Only a few. Oren is dead. I have news," he said his voice quivering with fear. "What news?" I snarled, my annoyance growing by the second. "The Queen gave birth to her pups. A girl and a boy. They fit the description of the twins from the prophecy meaning she is truly the queen."I stopped, "she gave birth? The pups are alive?" I could feel my anger growing. She wasn't supposed to have his pups! She's to have my pups!"Yes Alpha, the pups are said to be healthy and strong." Taloc knew my plan."You find a way to bring her to me!" I thundered en
The minutes seemed like hours as we waited for the convoy to arrive. I couldn't help but be on edge. I knew Luna Adina would never lie but maybe she had been hurt enough to lose her memory? I would have to wait till they arrived and see for myself. Aura was lying down on a cot I had brought in for her. The twins both slept in their bassinets. I hoped for her the reports were true, Luna Adina had indeed made a miraculous recovery. I heard the code word come through telling us the convoy was here. I had been pacing while I waited for them to arrive. I had various security checkpoints set up to ensure there was nothing that could lead the enemy to our location. As the convoy entered the tunnel leading into the underground bunker, I waited for the all-clear before I cautiously approached. Sitting in the front seat giving orders to my men was Luna Adina. She had indeed made a miraculous recovery. I watched as Kendall was carefully unloaded from the back of a truck and gently placed on a s
