Trigger warning - stillbirth and abortion.

Conrad POV

We approach the figure slowly. We were both in shock. She hadn’t walked or spoken since we rescued her from the dungeons. How the hell was she up and walking. How did she get outside without a guard seeing her? 

Lewana approached cautiously and looked her in the eyes and the realization seemed to dawn on her.

“Aesira”, she said just above a whisper.

“Yes my pup. I’m so glad I could see you again”. She reaches out a hand and strokes her face.

Lewana starts crying immediately and pulls her in for a hug. Her mother just strokes her back and gently shushes her until she is calm.

“I don’t understand. Where’s Mother”.

“Your mother’s soul moved on a few years ago. What they did broke her and she couldn’t hold on anymore. I’ve been by myself in this body waiting since then”.

    Liam POVI am nothing but mission-focused today. We had a meeting this morning in the kitchen with the girls, Arthur and Mary to explain the situation. The entire time Conrad held on to Lewana like someone was going to take her away at any moment. I knew my role was to make sure my King and future Queen through this.Kimberly is the most horrified when I explain what the council has organized. “Do they not understand that they are mates. How is he going to just pick someone else”.“They don’t care about that. In their eyes, Lewana isn’t good enough to be Luna Queen”.“So that’s the plan right. Prove to everyone that she is”. Michelle states it like it is so simple.“Exactly. Willow and Kimberly. Can research this ceremony and get as much info as you can it might help us win or at least end it. Michelle, you need to go shopping as Lewana is going to need a lot of formal clothes. Arthur need

    Conrad POVAll the alpha’s from the council file into my study. Heads held high and arrogance radiating off them. They knew this was coming and they didn’t care.As soon as Liam closed the door, I unleashed on them.“I TOLD YOU ALL I WAS NOT DOING THIS AND YOU WENT BEHIND MY BACK ANYWAY”. My Alpha aura was fully up and my eyes glowing gold as I stared daggers into them.Alpha Anthony just looks at me smugly and speaks very calmly and matter-of-fact. “We told you it was a council decision and we voted for it after you decided to leave the council meeting before the vote”.Alpha Angus chimes in as backup. “Even without your vote it was 5 to 1 so we went ahead. All the she-wolves have been brought here for the party and will be introduced to you tomorrow. You can pick your Luna from them”.I look to the other two who just stare at the floor. Of course, the two weaklings backed them up in the vote

    Eve POVI’m up in my room staring out the window as some of the Alpha’s arrive. I have to keep reminding myself that tomorrow they leave. Even if I recognize anyone, they will be gone tomorrow. Michelle comes to the window.“You know Conrad will be upset if he sees you at the window. He doesn’t want anyone to know you’re here”. Her voice is full of concern.“I know. It’s just like looking into another world. I know Conrad and I are getting closer but to think that all these powerful wolves might see me next to him one day. What will they think of me? The abused, rouge wolf with no pack. It’s my main fear that stops me from wanting to be with him. I don't want to bring shame to his title”.She just raises an eyebrow at me. “Oh really. And what type of wolf should he be with”.“You see the she-wolf in the

    Conrad POVI have come to really resent these council meetings. Bringing all random complaints that need funding and plans to gain power as ways to suck up when in reality it would be better if they could figure things out themselves. Honestly, these men call themselves leaders when they probably couldn't organize a dinner reservation between them.Three days. I only have to last three days and then they will leave again. Three days to achieve my only goal of keeping my Lewana safe.I have permitted her to train with the guards and soldiers when in reality she has started running the sessions. I hear from Liam she is a natural teacher and in the week she has been doing it there have been a lot of improvements. She has even been playing ‘hide and seek’ with the hunters to improve their tracking capabilities but that has been banned this week. I need eyes on her at all times.The council me

    Eve POVWhen I woke up in Conrad’s room again, I was so content. I have never been with someone who wanted to make me so happy. Even with the sex, he never pushed and wanted to make sure I was enjoying myself, even if he didn’t get what he wanted. I got up to go to the bathroom and I just stared at myself in the mirror. Last night had been amazing and I was wondering how I was going to go back to my room. If I wanted to go back.When I came back, I got back into his bed. He was awake and excitedly pulled me in close to him so he was spooning me.“I was wondering if you would come back”.“I guess you’re making it harder for me to run away”.He just pulled me even closer, held me tighter, and started kissing my neck. Just enjoying the time when it is just us in the world.We eventually got up and got dressed but Conrad surprised me by ordering breakfast to the room so we could spend more al

  • Balance of Light and Shadow   Chapter 47

    Conrad POVI was getting ready for the party with Liam and we were discussing everything that had happened with Lewana's mother. Also, I needed him to keep an eye on Arthur as they worked together as he clearly knew more than he was telling. “That is so messed up and creepy. What do you think she meant by a gift from the Moon Goddess”, Liam asked confused.“No idea. I was more concerned about events over the next month”.“Well, at least tonight we can just focus on the party”.We enter the barn together. It is customary for me to be first so the pack can greet me on entering. I have been here 30 minutes and Lewana is yet to show up. I turn to Liam worried.“Do you think she is coming or do you think it was too much”.“She’s coming. Mish says it’s a thing to be fashionably late”.This does nothing to calm my nerves. My thoughts are stopped by the visi
