Unknown's pov
Crispy red painted sky when nature's fireball rose with dawn, on the horizon it shone with a faint hue of burnt orange and scattered red. The puffy clouds danced over the gigantic but calmed ocean, spiralled under the web of the dense forest. I stood near the borders of the Moon blessed territory, that's called The Crystal Moon Pack.
Never in my wasted life have I felt a bit of fear, not even from the Alpha of my former pack. It was just a respect I gave him as a friend. However, today, I stood in foreign land. Something had stirred in my mind. The feeling was alienated as I haven't felt it for a long time. Until I realised it was my wolf, it came back on the surface. However, he wasn't really intended to initiate a conversation. Douche…
Hefty paws and trickling sweat beads rolled down on my face as I watched the territory borders closely, my enhanced sight provided me a view of patrolling guards all over the place and their intricate guarding pattern. The security outside the pack was complex and it wouldn't be easy to breach it. The only thing that would make me caught off the scent of the rouge I dipped in. Not being able to remove this sin since I had left everything behind but got no time for remorse. It won't be long when I will get my hands on the werewolf I had to abduct.
Orfilia's pov
The glimmered rays of the sun fell over my face and as I scrunched my brows in retaliation to leave the bed, a silhouette appeared in my hazy sight and it made me jump back in fear.
My loud scream filled the air and my popped nerves were clearly seen on my body until i was calm and realised that it was no one but my brother Jeremy pulling a prank on me.
"What the hell…" I cried, almost.
He threw a fit of laughter before slumped into the bean bag behind him. His electric blue eyes were on me as he proceeded to wish me a greeting.
"Happy Birthday, Wolf Girl…" he screamed like thousands of guitars were playing in my head.
"Happy Birthday, dear…" mom came running behind him and wished me.
A smile curled up on my face and I got up to hug my mom. "Thank you, mom!!!"
"Look, my girl, she has turned eighteen…" Her gaze was full of pride and a hint of sadness lurked in her eyes but she concealed it before I could notice.
"Wow… but it doesn't feel any different… I mean… Injave heard that turning eighteen makes you mature and different in aspects but I am still the same." I observed while looking at the wall size mirror placed on the wall of my room.
"It's not instant but you will feel it. Anyway, get ready, I have baked a cake for you. We will celebrate here first before your birthday bash at pack house." Mom informed me and glad she did because I almost forgot about the party. And if so, Ivory would have killed him.
They left the room and I rushed to get ready for the day. More than anything, I was excited to be with Bobby and couldn't wait to find out he was my mate. Apart from that, I would shift anytime of the day and as Dad had instructed me about first shifting, I would be careful today.
I wore a pleated shirt with a black jeans and great canvas. Tied my hair in a ponytail and did a little makeup as I wanted to appear different than other days. As I went downstairs, My dad looked at me and smiled with his whole heart. I could read his eyes. They shone with glee and pure love. So I returned the favour.
"My baby girl turned eighteen today. I cannot believe that you will leave us anytime once you will find your mate." His words made me sad but it was true.
Once I find Bobby as my mate, I will leave this house to be with him.
"Don't worry, I will not leave you…" I started while taking a place next to him.
"You can't say that. What if your mate would be an Alpha or beta from another pack? Then you will leave us here and go with your mate." Said Mom and it startled me. I don't want another mate than Bobby.
"Or maybe, she will find her mate in this pack. I know a guy she had a crush on for a long time…" It was Jeremy who spilled the beans and I glared at him while others giggled.
"Let's celebrate, because my dear daughter needs to go to school on time." My saviour, my dad.
Mom brought the chocolate cake and we celebrated a short birthday at home. I cut pieces and made everyone eat one but from it.
"I will eat the rest of the cake tomorrow…" As I warned them and left the house, Bobby parked his car outside my house and I was utterly happy to see him. My stomach had butterflies dancing as his smile made my day bright. I hopped in his car and he greeted me with a peck on my lips, "happy birthday…".
And then he presented a small gift on my hand. I was shocked when I opened the small box and it revealed a stone pendant with a snake pattern chain. He picked it up and made me wear it.
"Bobby, I haven't shifted and I am not sure that I am your mate." As i said, he put his finger on my lips
"You are my mate… I can feel it. My wolf is restless and I know once your wolf comes to the surface, I will claim you as my mate." He looked into my eyes and pecked my lips again before we headed to the school.
School was ordinary except the greetings I received all day. And Ivory, she was all dolled up with shorts and ruffled top, paired with high boots. She was looking like her daddy's spoiled girl.
"Orfilia, what is this? I expected you to look pretty today… you are still simple…" she rolled her eyes.
"I am different but you are on another level. You know I can't be like you…" I scoffed as I walked along with her.
"Can't believe we are birthday twins and share nothing except the birthday…" why she was so cold.
"Alright, but I will make sure you look wonderful at the party. Many Alphas with their children are coming to the party and the best part is that, all of them are above eighteen or turned eighteen recently so, it's a high chance of getting a mate. I am hella sure that a filthy rich alpha or soon to be alpha would be my mate. I mean, who else gonna handle me and my tantrums." She was really thinking like that?
"Yeah… it's good that you will find an Alpha…" I was still confused with her expectations but maybe she could brag about such things.
"What about you?" She asked.
"I just want an understanding mate, who will not only be my mate but my supporter too. More than anything, he will be everywhere for me. I don't have any expectations for my mate…" I uttered knowing how boring I sounded.
"Seriously? Anyway… it's time to head to the salon. We have to get ready.." She was super excited and dragged me with her car.
Then, we headed to the salon of her choice, where magic happens because when we came out, we were unrecognisable. Literally, not me. I gawked at the person in the mirror, almost looking like someone from the fashion industry just landed here. No wonder why Ivory looked so fine every damn day. My father was a beta and he didn't have that much money like an Alpha but he showed us how hard it was to earn that money. our all demands were fulfilled.
When I reached home, my mom was shocked to see me with full makeup and hair styled by professionals. Since there was just one hour left for the party, I still had time to get ready.
I wore the maroon dress I bought from the mall and slipped into the golden stilettos. When I walked down the stairs, there was another set of pairs watching me keenly. Bobby was waiting inside and my Mom watched me smile when I saw him.
"Ready for the party?" Asked my Mom from me and my gaze directed to her.
"Yes."
"You are looking pretty… adorable." She hugged and handed my hands into Bobby's.
"I hope you will take care of my daughter." She instructed him.
"Definitely…" he nodded his head and we headed outside to his car.
"Excited?" He asked with a raised brow.
"Yeah… but i am more excited to have my first shift and be your mate." My fingers got entangled with his.
And then, we hopped into the car and went straight to the party venue.
Alpha Damien's povI could hear the noise of the music banging out loud from the farmhouse but inside my office, it was silent and my silence was eating me up. The party hadn't started and a few guests showed up. My thoughts about this birthday were delusional. If it would be in my hand, I wouldn't have let my daughter turn eighteen. Anytime, she will have her first shift and my biggest secret would be revealed.Before I got up from my chair, I heard a significant knock on the door and with an authoritative tone, I let the beta of my pack inside."Damien… the party will start anytime." He announced as he proceeded to walk towards me."I know there will be Alphas from different packs along with their children. I am afraid that my secret will be exposed. I cannot afford to make this mistake. We need to do something… I will cancel this party…" I started with an aggressive tone."No… you will not… this will only increase others' suspicion." Said Jaden."Than what am I supposed to do?" I w
LanceAs the slow breezes blew, embracing my fur, a shiver went down my spine when a painful howl was heard from a distance. It was different and somehow, I felt the pain of a heartbreak. Someone's love had died that night.Confused, as I stood at the boundaries of the crystal moon pack, my wolf was on the surface again but he was distant from me. There was no point left to start a conversation but there was no harm in trying, was it? When I asked the silence for the answer, I got silence in return. He was disappointed in me and I understood him. I closed my eyes and waited for the call. "We have dug the tunnel… Now it's your turn to get inside and bring that wolf…" said one of the Alpha's puppets.Of course, being the banned Alpha, he had his traits which followed his legacies. Considered his doubts in me, so he sent a team of his special warriors along. They had kept their eyes on me and even if I wanted to escape, I wouldn't land anywhere safe or consider a place that would be cal
Orfilia's povSomething doesn't fit here, something wasn't right at all. The anxious phenomenon decorated on my mother's face was a clear indicator of a messed up situation. Doesn't feel good and went for the run instead. Although it was evening now and I had nothing left to do, maybe a warm up and a run into the woods would calm my own anxiety and let me breathe when I felt suffocated inside my own house. Definitely, it wasn't just the first time I felt weird about something different but why does it always felt like I had to do a lot rather than just keep looking forward in the direction. My pathways were overshadowed but finding the light would be the answer. Somehow, I felt like being called by a voice but I halted as the hair on my nape stood erect and my wolf was trying to inform me about the danger. Danger in the territory? My steps stopped and halted in a place as I turned the heels and moved back to the civilized society. Dropping everything off, I ran to see Ivory because
Orfilia's povAs soon as Luna Aria was seen lying unconscious on the floor, the medical staff rushed to take her inside and healers arrived to check her vitals. Just as the news spread about Luna's condition, Alpha Damien came along and he turned pale when he saw his wife on the hospital bed.I stood a few meters away from them and watched them closely. Somehow, I knew it was my fault. I failed to protect Ivory.My hands were trembling when Luna Aria didn't respond to their calls and they rushed to admit her in the emergency. Alpha's gaze landed on me and he was hyperventilating in a corner."Orfilia… are you okay?" He was concerned while putting his warm hands over my shoulders.I burst into tears and shook my head in disagreement, "No… I am not okay… in fact, I have failed you. I have failed to protect your daughter when those rogues abducted her. However, I did my best to fight but somehow, I couldn't shift into my wolf…"I knew that Alpha would be mad at me and he would punish me
Orfilia's povLast night, I had isolated myself from the family. Dad came to my room and knocked the door several times but when he didn't received any response from my side, he left. I cried the entire night and thought why did it happened? Was there something I didn't know?Suddenly, it struck to my mind that the day when I was discussing about my shift and what my wolf looked like, I saw my parents expressions turning pale. Not to be delusional, but I thought there was something they were hiding. I got up form the bed and opened the door, than I went downstairs to my parents and decided to confront them. Raised my hand and placed soft knocks on the door and within a second, Dad opened the door and let me in. The vibe inside the room expressed the tensed environment. "Orfilia… how are you feeling now? We know that it was stupid to ask, specially when your friend being kidnapped but we want you to be safe and secure as well." Asked Mom from me and than she proceeded to make me sit
Lance's povAfter entering into the territory, I kept my sense awake in case if I came across with the gurads of Crystal Moon pack. I need to atke them down and kept getting inside the territory to find the wolf. Once My hands get on this special wolf, I will hand her to the banned Alpha, Raymond and ask for my freedom in exchange of the wolf. The tension of getting caught was too much and on the other side, my wolf was unsettled and restless since I had entered the pack boundaries. Not sure what does it mean but It doesn't felt like any threat. Keeping that thoughts apart, I focused to look for the wolf and wondered what that wolf might look like.All of the clues, I only had that the special wolf pup would be Alpha Damien's first child. After extracting out the information, I find out that it was his daughter Ivory who was the moon wolf of the crystal moon pack. Atleast, something was better than nothing but who is she? I need to find out.I discussed with the team of rogue warriors
The sirens are howling over the coasts of the sea and they lighten the lamps to find the intruder that stepped onto their land. The guards are imposed with heavy weapons to slay anyone who comes in their way.The Alpha had sent his armies in every direction to find a clue of the abducted princess. The loss he can’t fix to stop his mate grieving over. The time is lapsing out of hands, but they find no clue against the abductor. It increases the tension on the other side of the land where the abductor had taken a shelter in the territory of the banned Alpha Raymond.Beta Jaden went to The Alpha that night and explained how he got threaten by his mate and his daughter got accused of the crime.This infuriated Alpha Damien and after a heated discussion, he went to see his mate in his room, where he found his mate, Luna Aria lying on the bed with a photograph of their daughter, Ivory Brooks. Alpha was aware of the fact that the Luna was hurt but her actions were unjustified and He approach
The rain has stopped pouring for a while but the clouds didn’t budge out from the sky. It indicates that it will rain again, soon. The enchanted forest, there is nothing so enchanting in here.This place is home for the boycotted, exiled creatures who are living peacefully and who will die peacefully here too.There was this brunette, who is roaming in the dark forest, looking for special herbs she wants. She is so familiar with the place that the forest respects her to be here. She picked a golden yellow flower and plucked it, keeping it safe in her small jute bag.After rechecking the list that she got everything she wanted, she left the place back to her cottage. The little dark creatures admire her charming beauty but they do know that she is not an ordinary witch.She stands a few inches away from the door of her cottage and mumble a few unfamiliar words to open the door. She casted a spell on the entrance to keep the man of her dreams and his daughter safe from the intruders. J
