“It is time, Young Luna.”
I glanced up to find my slave maid Aella standing there. Taking a shaky breath I nodded.
"Thanks. Um.. I'll be there shortly."
She nodded. I waited until I heard her receding footsteps before dashing to the window, peeking out for any sign of the car.
The black Mustang was right below my window.
I put on a smile, then turned and walked towards the door.
"All right, let us go!" I called out to Aella as I got outside, who smiled and started the car engine.
I looked into the car, and my smile paused.
My husband was nowhere to be found.
I looked around; no sign of him. My husband, the man I love, he was not there.
I felt a growl in my chest, my wolf was upset and restless; it felt like she was pacing back and forth.
Obviously because Rune promised to bring me to the hospital but didn't show up
His mother, the current Luna, had promised that he would come to the hospital, and I believed her.
I believed he would appear, and the thought of it kept me in a sleepless frenzy all night.
"Is something wrong, Young Luna?" Someone's voice jolted me from my thoughts.
I looked up to meet Aella's piercing gaze in the mirror. It brought a smile back to my face.
"Y—yes, Aella." My smile widened. "I am doing well and okay." I turned to look through the car's window, watching the houses and people flash past.
"We have arrived, Young Luna." Aella announced after a while, and I looked around to see that we'd arrived at the hospital.
It was a simple building painted white.
A statue of a rearing werewolf adorned the grassy space in its front.
I watched her drive into a space slowly and turn off the ignition.
She turned to address me once more. "You will leave the vehicle and wait for me while I go to park in the lot."
I nodded and opened the car door unconsciously.
Suddenly, a blinding light covered my eyes, I raised my hands to shield my eyes, and that's when I saw a car sprinting towards me like a bullet! Heart racing, I froze in terror.
I staggered backwards in alarm, but before I could go far. All of a sudden, a man I had not seen before stood in front of me.
"Pull around!" He yelled so loudly that the man, whoever was driving the car, immediately stopped.
"Are you doing okay?" He turned to ask me. "I apologize for that, but were you hurt?"
I shook my head and nodded again. Did I fall or remain standing?
For crying out loud! I could not figure out what had happened. How did I end up where I am now?
I looked up to find the man staring at me with worry in his eyes. His hands hovered around me, as if to check for any wounds.
I flinched as his hand touched me. My eyes moved around, catching his features. His long, sandy-blonde hair brushed the top of his shoulders.
His beautiful bright blue eyes stared at me with worry in them.
He had on a tight black compression shirt, which outlined his biceps really well.
He was so attractive that I found myself staring at him for a long time. Finally, I pulled my eyes away.
"I am fine," I muttered. "My maid is right around the corner."
I saw Aella running towards me, concerned in her eyes.
"What has happened, my Lady?" She asked.
"Are you okay?"
When the man excused us, Aella gasped in shock and grabbed my arm, pulling me to a safer place.
"What were you thinking?" She yelled. "That car could have injured you.... or worse!"
I did not know how to respond.
I could still feel the shock, and all I could do was stare at the ground.
I hoped the babies were fine, at least.
"Let's go!" Aella said and led the way to the white building.
We caught up with the office soon enough, and following the doctor's examination, he confirmed that the babies were healthy.
I was very relieved at the news, and I let out a sigh before leaving the office.
We arrived at the reception area, and Aella stopped me with a hand on my shoulder.
"I have to get the car. I will be back." She said and walked away, leaving me standing motionless.
Everything that had happened just a few moments before had done enough for me, and there was no way I was going to take another risk that would cost me my life.
"Hey" A voice called out to me suddenly.
I turned to see where the voice came from. It was the man who had saved me earlier.
“I am fine, thanks." I replied with a smile. "I appreciate the assistance the other time."
"Oh, it is nothing," he said. " You do not have a stomach bump yet, but I suspect you are pregnant.
What is the condition of the baby? Did you hit your tummy? And what did the doctor tell you?"
"They are fine," I proudly informed the man, implying that they were two babies rather than one.
"The doctor has confirmed that they are fine."
“You know…” He started. "I was so worried about you and decided to wait until you got out.
I was almost even growing impatient." He smiled brightly
" Really?" I burst out laughing, for the first time in a while.
"Well, I apologize for wasting your time, but you should not have been concerned about me.
Especially since you saved the day and kept me from getting hurt."
He nodded, and my eyes caught his again. He looked into my eyes for a while without saying a word and I felt a flutter in my stomach that I hadn't felt for a long time.
Even a blush was creeping up my face. The man was so attractive!
In so many ways, he reminded me of Rune, whom I had loved my entire life.
They had the same charm around them. His blue eyes and Rune's looked so similar.
I knew I needed to end the conversation before it became too much.
I chuckled softly and broke my gaze.
"Ohh I can see your maid is here with the car."
"Ah Yes, she is." I replied, staring at his eyes again. "I have to go now.... And thank you once again for saving my life"
" Okay, now you're making me look like some super hero, I'm glad I could help" He said, looking straight into my eyes, and I chuckled, biting my lip.
"You're really funny"
"Thanks, I'm sorry for taking your time"
He nodded, bowed, and then turned around.
I smiled as I watched him from behind.
And just as he was about to leave my sight, I heard a familiar deep and husky voice behind me. "Who exactly is that guy?"
I turned around, surprised to see him.
My husband Rune, and he was with my sister.
"Lila?"
SEVEN YEARS LATERLOGAN'S POV I was already out of breath before I even realized what I’d gotten myself into.Three-year-old twins, identical fire crackers with no situational awareness and zero understanding of the fact that walking around without clothes on would get the sick, were streaking across the yard, squealing with glee if being chased.And I ran after them with their tiny clothes in both hands. Their bare feet slapped against the stone floor of the hallway and I cursed under my breath.“Come back here, you little dragons!” I shouted, lunging for one of them. My fingers caught only air, and she yelped in delight as she dashed past me, giggling.The other twin mirrored her, her hair flying like dark flames behind her.As soon as the started walking, Raven and I had soon realized that they were runner wolves, and it didn't bode well for either of us…or their older siblings.I chased them out onto the empty courtyard, marveling at how they'd both streaked down the steps witho
RAVEN'S POV The morning of the battle tasted like iron.Not just on my tongue no, the metallic sting lived in the air itself, in the breaths of every warrior who passed me, in the wind that cut through the battlefield tents, sending a chill through the camp.Wounded men hurried past and out of the infirmary tent with bandages, and salves, while I worked stiffly and swiftly to control bleedings and wash up wounds so they healed properly.I kept my hands busy even as exhaustion began to steal over me. Not just because I wanted to, but because I had to. Aella stood to my right, sleeves already stained up to her elbows. Alison moved between cots, muttering soft encouragements to whichever soldier needed it most.I’d always known she was stern, but I’d never realized she could be so gentle.“Raven,” Aella called without looking up, handing me another strip of cloth. “Hold this one down. He’s bleeding through.”I pressed the cloth to the warrior’s abdomen, ignoring the way his jaw clenche
LOGAN'S POV The morning I finally received word from a panting messenger about Rune’s approach, was very quiet. A hilarious opposite to the situation at hand.The sky could at least have darkened as a sigh. Of Oxen army marching towards attack, but the sun remained bright, and the sky stayed blue and light.I stood in the courtyard, listening to the wind rustle through the trees, and felt the weight settle on my shoulders like a stone. My men gathered around, some grim, others bristling with barely contained energy after I shared the news with them.I drew a deep breath, letting it steady me.“We shall ride to meet him halfway,” I said, voice firm. “Perhaps there's a chance to still fix this.”The pack murmured assent, gripping weapons, adjusting armor, tightening reins. I mounted my horse, the familiar rhythm of the saddle beneath me grounding me in the certainty of what had to come. Every Alpha I had ever faced had been a challenge, but Rune… Rune was different. He wasnt very cle
LOGAN'S POV The council’s new chambers smelled of old wood, waxed floors, and the faint tang of iron from the swords and daggers lining the walls. I stood at the head of the long table, the air thick with anticipation, if not outright tension. Every council member was there, seated in the usual semicircle, their eyes narrow, brows drawn, lips pressed into the kind of lines that told me they had already decided they didn’t like me today.“Logan,” Egan began, leaning forward, fingers steepled. “We need clarity. The settlers…you’ve allowed them to stay indefinitely?”I let the silence stretch for a moment before nodding calmly. “Yes. Until they decide to leave, that is.”A collective groan filled the room. The older members exchanged worried glances, muttering under their breath. I ignored the buzzing murmurs, letting them stew.“Indefinitely?” another voice, harsher this time, demanded. “Do you understand the precedent you’re setting? Packs don’t just allow outsiders to take up resid
