________________________________...Noelle stood in front of the mirror, glaring at her reflection. What the hell had happened to her once perfect hair?Was it all the stress that was doing this to her hair? It had lost all its shine and it looked like a freaking bird's nest. And not the nest of one of those birds who knew to make pretty nests."Or maybe it's because you refuse to comb it out."Noelle turned out to see Ezekiel smiling at her from the doorway, Jonah beaming at her from his arms."My baby!" The she-wolf squealed, her voice extra high-pitched, making her mate flinch while her nephew giggled excitedly as he held his arms out for her to take him."Auntie Ellie, let's go for ice-cream!" He exclaimed as soon as he was in Noelle's arms."YES!""All you both ever eat is chocolate and ice-cream." Ezekiel shook his head, though he was simply jealous that they too had such a great bond, and did not let him tag along for ice-cream."And all you ever eat is my brain." Noelle stu
_____________________________..."So about getting info from rogues-""That will be an absolute no.""Why not?" Noelle resorted to whining, because there was no way she could convince her stupid mate to think rationally by speaking rationally."Because... have you thought of the probability that all rogues are in on this? That all the rogues are planning to overthrow the pack wolves.""Rogues won't do that." Noelle narrowed her eyes at her mate. Why the hell would he even think that?"And why are you so sure?" Ezekiel challenged."Because I have already told you about the different communities within the rogues, haven't I?" Noelle could not believe her stupid mate right now. Had she not made herself clear when she explained to him how the rogue communities worked?They minded their own fucking business.And the only ones who could ever be behind this are the assassins. But obviously, these wolves were very different from assassins - in aspects of both their sizes and the lack of re
___________________________..."This is all my fault." Ezekiel mumbled, clutching his head as he paced about the corridor."Instead of repeating that over and over again, would you like to tell me what exactly happened?" Hunter was leaning against the wall, one leg up, as the duo waited for Sabrina to come out and tell them what was wrong with Noelle... now."We were fighting... over something." Ezekiel breathed out.It had been seven hours. Seven whole hours and she had not even reacted. And the pack doctor had regretfully informed the Alpha that Noelle was not sleeping like she usually did when she lost consciousness. This was somewhat of a mini coma.'Why are you hiding what you were fighting over from your Beta?''What if he does not try to understand and end up misunderstanding Noelle.''What she did is wrong.' The wolf said. 'Even I can't defend her this time.''No, you just don't want to defend her this time because you are mad at her for challenging you.'Ezekiel's wolf, be
____________________________..."Remind me never to fall for your crap ever again." Hunter pointed at his two friends accusingly though his face held nothing but a smug smile.The newly marked mates had not emerged out of the bedroom till breakfast next day. And all the while, their closed ones were busy worrying about them."Every time I leave you both thinking you are fighting or need time to patch up, this is what you end up doing." He continued to speak as he poked a piece of bacon with his fork. He was about to bring it to his mouth when it dropped from his hand, his mouth left hanging wide as he saw the scene that he never thought he ever will - Noelle leaned closed to Ezekiel and rested her head on his chest."What on earth am I seeing?" Hunter just couldn't get enough of being dramatic. He turned to his mate. "Does marking do that to you? Is that why you suddenly started loving me?"Ezekiel gave him a death glare while Noelle simply rolled her eyes while Hunter's mate could
____________________________...Excruciating agony coursed through their veins as they crouched forward, suddenly clutching their hearts.Death.There was a death in the pack."Who is it?" Noelle asked out loud, though her words reverberated in the pack link. "Who is it?""There's two." Ezekiel was able to pin-point. "Two are dead.""What happened?" Ezekiel linked Hunter. "Who died?"But there was no reply.And Ezekiel realized, there was no link either.Dread built up in his chest."Why isn't Hunter or Simon responding to the mind link?" Noelle asked out loud before Ezekiel tried to communicate with Simon.Noelle's head darted to her mate, feeling the sudden dread and shock."No." She whispered. "You are just over-thinking it. They are at the pack house.""I asked them to check out the eeriness." He replied.A ominous chill ran down Noelle's spine.'They shouldn't have been there.' The voice spoke again, as if it had taken over Noelle's wolf's voice. 'No one should have wandered t
__________________________..."No." Her voice was once again cold. "This is Axel and Mira's fault. It's those Elephants' fault. My wolf was not able to find out the agenda behind why they are doing all of this, but honestly, I don't care anymore. And I don't care that he is the biological sperm donor. All of them need to die."She finally faced her mate, fire in her eyes, the same power in her aura, and the fierce pain and anger in her voice, "We need good witches and wizards for this."..."Your majesty, Blood Moon is under lockdown." Words travelled faster than light. "They are shutting down other packs as well.""Well, what else are they supposed to do?" He chuckled, playing with his wild dirty blond curls. "A blood-thirsty murderous hybrid is on the loose."He got up from his silver throne, and walked towards the pool of water that leaked into his cave from the rocks above. Looking at his own reflection, he said, "What the fuck was that blockhead thinking?""There's no love l
___________________________...The Southern Sky pack. One of the most developed packs in the country, not to mention one of the most beautiful, with it spreading across a coastline. The number of pack members was less, but they were all heavily trained in the latest techniques of combat. They were well-educated and since their pack was not completely isolated from human establishments, they took up human jobs as well.But that was not what made Southern Sky different, was it? It was the fact that the Luna of the pack was a witch. A powerful one. A very just and fearless one."I seriously do not think my brother will let you anywhere near my sister-in-law!" Beta Riccia Sherman said as they made their way into the beach house where the Alpha stayed with his wife."I need to try." Ezekiel sighed. "You know about the situation, right? I know it's hard to believe but-""Oh trust me, Alpha, nothing is hard to believe in this pack. Especially when it has something to do with the wizarding
___________________________..."Okay. And one more thing.""What?""I love you".Noelle stopped in her track, making all of her friends stop too, looking at her weirdly."Something the matter?" Samuel asked, but then he realized that her eyes were glazed over. She was talking to someone, and given the distance, it has to be the mate."Is everything alright?" Jordan asked."If it wasn't, she would tell us." Kade reassured her as they waited for her to respond.But no. She stayed there frozen and rooted to her spot for another ten seconds before she finally snapped out of her daze, and responded."What?"But there was no response from her stupid mate. It was like he completely disappeared after dropping the bomb."Alpha Ezekiel Wright of Blood Moon Pack, you can't leave me hanging like that!"No response.'Wow, you fuck with each other even while confessing your love.' Her wolf chuckled. What was wrong with this couple?"What's going on?" Benjamin asked. "You look like you are ready
