**Aiden's POV**
My brothers and I just got back from the club only to see Rachel standing outside the pack house with hands folded on her chest. From her expression, she kinda look pissed for reasons I can't tell.
“Caden, why is Rachel here at this time of the night?” Jayden asked.
“How the f*ck would I know? We all just came back from the club. She's probably here to get f*cked!” Caden said with a light chuckle. Just as we arrived at the entrance of the pack house, Rachel obstructed us from going in.
“What the f*ck do you think you're doing, Rachel?”
“Why don't you f*cking explain to me where you're all coming from at this time of the night?” She questioned sternly.
“And how the h*ll has that got to do with you, huh?" I asked, in irritation.
“What? Is this how you play me? I've been waiting for you all to get back all evening. Wait a minute, you went to the club right? And you f*cking carried those dirty sl*ts, didn't you?”
“Good thing you're wise enough to know we carried some sl*ts, but you're calling them dirty? If they are dirty, doesn't that mean you're dirty as well?” Caden counterattacked.
“What? How could you compare me to cheap sl*ts?”
“Don't flatter yourself, Rachel we know what you are and that is the fact that you aren't different from the surrounding sl*ts,” Jayden added.
Rachel was boiling. Her eyes have become red with rage.
“I let you all have your time with me, and you dare call me a cheap sl*t because of that?”
“Rachel, don't you think you're being delusional right now? Do not forget that we have our eyes and ears everywhere. You might not know this, but we found out about your schemes!” I lashed out.
“You're f*cking Erin from Dark Moon Pack, aren't you?”
“What?!” She exclaimed all at once with eyes wide open.
“Yo! Look how shocked she's become. You never really thought we'll find out about that huh? Just because we are friends with the Dark Moon Pack doesn't mean you can f*ck just anyone you feel like.”
Rachel was trembling now. The fact that we have found out her secret must have taken a toll on her. But in truth, we found out about this since last year but decided not to speak up about it. We just wanted to toy with her to our satisfaction before discarding her for good.
“Aiden,” she called, trying to come near me, but Jayden and Caden wouldn't give her the chance to as they both stood in her way.
“Don't go to him. You must not know this; we are all aware of what you did."Jayden spilled.
Rachel stood rooted on the spot while watching us in a daze.
“What now? The cat's got your tongue? You can't speak out now because we actually caught you, isn't it?”
“I…I…" She stuttered, unable to say a word.
“Aiden, what do you think we should do with her? Keep her around or f*cking discard her?” Caden asked. As the eldest, whatever decision that concerns us always comes to me first. I have the final say.
“Well, I don't think I can continue doing a cheap sl*t. I guess it's time for us to retire her. Her job is done!"
As usual, Caden and Jayden didn't protest.
“Well, you heard our brother, now scram!” Jayden yelled.
“Please, give me a chance to right my-”
“Shut the f*ck up and get the h*ll out of here, Rachel. Don't you understand when we said we don't want you anymore?”
Caden stated.
Tears stood in her eyes as she slowly moved backwards while looking at us.
Seeing that no one is willing to ask her to stay, she finally turned around and left the pack house. We all heaved a deep sigh of relief.
“What a hassle. How can she not take the hint when we asked her to leave?” I said.
“Well, you can't blame her, if only we hadn't kept it hidden, she would have known,” Caden uttered.
“And that would have given her an opportunity to manipulate her way back into our lives." Jayden added.
I looked around the pack, it was quite dark. If there's anyone I and my brothers have found more interesting, it is no one else but Alana. I wonder if she's asleep now.
“Guys, how about we visit our toy today?” I suggested.
Jayden and Caden both took their gaze towards me at once. At first, they seemed like they weren't pleased with what I said, but all of a sudden, they slowly began smiling at me.
“What are we waiting for? Let's move it!” Jayden said aloud and immediately led the way.
Just as we were headed towards the direction of her room, the huge alarm clock outside the pack house rang.
“F*ck! It's midnight already,” Caden complained.
“Does this mean we can't go see our favorite toy anymore?” Jayden asked.
“Well, it's late. Even though she's our toy, we should let her have some sleep. Tomorrow is another day,” I proposed. And undoubtedly, my brothers all agreed.
Just as we were about heading to our various rooms, an intoxicating smell instantly hit my nose, which immediately made me freeze. What was that smell all about?
I looked in the direction of my brothers only to see them having the same expression as I did.
“Wait, don't tell me, you all perceived the same scent?”
They both nodded without saying a word.
We looked around the now quiet hall and in no time, we discovered the direction where the sweet smell of vanilla was coming from.
“F*ck! I've never perceived anything so sweet and intoxicating in my entire life." Caden exclaimed.
“What are we waiting for? Let's go check it out,” Caden said, leading the way this time.
We followed the scent, and it strangely led us to the doorpost of Stephan's room.
We all took a quick glance at one another. This is odd. What does this mean?
Jayden, who is the bravest among us came in front of the door and knocked on it.
We all stared at the door, expecting Stephan to open up.
**Alana's POV***As soon as I went to the visitor's hall, I was shocked to see my mom, pacing worriedly. I could tell she's this way because she wanted to see me.“Mom!” I called out, and she looked in my direction.When she saw me, she instantly went wide in shock and rushed over to meet me with arms wide open.“Oh, my dear! I'm so glad to see you.”“Mom, thank goodness!” I said with eyes closed as I pulled her into a deep, warm hug with eyes closed.Just then, she moved away and pulled away from the hug at once. At first, I was confused why she acted that way. I noticed as she looked down at my stomach and let out a loud gasp.“Oh, my goodness! You're pregnant, Alana.” She exclaimed, wide-eyed.“Yes, mom.” I said with tears in my eyes. She instantly bursts into tears while looking at me. “This is the best thing I've seen so far. My dear, I'm so proud of you,” she muttered, with tears trickling down her eyes.“I'm pleased you are, mom. You do not know just how much I've wanted to sho
***Alana's POV***What? I stood up all at once. I can't believe what I just heard.“What are you talking about, Marcus?”“Like I earlier mentioned, I would rather not bring this matter to you, knowing it's a delicate matter.”“What do you mean, sensitive matter? You ought to have brought this to my notice before now!” I said, getting up from my chair.“My pack is being attacked, and I'm the last to know?”I was on the verge of going mad.“Luna, please calm down. We are letting you know because like I earlier said, the Alphas are on an important mission.”“So, what are you suggesting?”The elders all stared at one another.“Since it has come to this, we can as well choose the strongest in our pack to protect them.”“Hell no, that would never happen. You don't expect me to just sit here and wait. I'm worried about death.”“What are you talking about, Luna?” Marcus asked and the other elders all looked at me with a surprised expression.I came in front of them, my hands on my hips and my
***James POV***“W…what? You can't be serious about what you just said, Alpha.”“Don't be like that, James. I'm very much serious about what I just said. I see no one else leading the pack besides you.”“But this is too much. Are you abandoning your pack?”“What do you mean? I'll never abandon my pack. It's just that I have to be with my mates, and I guess I don't need to explain why. Now that you have a mate, I'm sure you know how it is.”James shut his eyes and took a deep breath.I understand you, Alpha Alana. But if you give up on the pack now, it'll appear you're trying to give up on your father's hard work.”“Oh please don't talk like that. You know I'll never give up. Okay, let's put things this way. Let's say I'm putting you in charge of the pack for the meantime, that I'll not be there. What do you say about that?”At this moment, I noticed his worried expression slowly relaxed.“If you put things this way, then I'll gladly watch over the pack for you.”I smiled, now that he
***Alana's POV**My mom's mind was set to go back to the Rising Moon Pack, and there's nothing I can do to change her mind. To be honest, I wouldn't deny the fact that she's going back to where she belongs.The only thing that makes me feel sad is the fact that it was only after I've chosen to stay in the Blood Rose Pack, she wanted to go back home.In no later time, I was informed that James and Michelle are here.“Mom, the beta is here. I guess we should go see them.”My mom agreed, and we all set out to welcome them.Just as I was about to embrace Michelle, I noticed a bump that made me look downwards, and to my greatest shock, it was her tummy.Instantly, I lifted my gaze up at Michelle.”“Oh, my goodness! Is this what I think it is?” I asked, wide-eyed.She nodded her head shyly while rubbing her stomach.“My goodness! I'm so proud of you.” I pulled Michelle into a warm hug. While we were hugging, James suddenly came over.“James!” I called out the moment he showed up. I slowly p
**Alana's POV**After the coming together of all werewolf packs, I decided to go over to my mate only to see them having a silent conversation which made him raise a brow. I couldn't help but wonder what they were talking about so seriously and I slowly approached them.I should have known that no matter how careful I was, it wouldn't stop them from sensing me. They all turned around towards my direction at once.“My goodness! What were you all discussing that you all seemed to me in deep thoughts?”“Uhm, Alana,” Jayden was about to say when Caden and Aiden immediately grabbed him and covered his lips immediately.This was confusing.“What's going on? Why are you suddenly trying to stop him from speaking?” I asked.“It's nothing, Alana. Do not mind whatever that may come out from the lips of Jayden.”Aiden stated.Now, I'm more than curious to find out exactly what they are hiding from me. They seemed to be acting suspiciously so I couldn't help but wonder what all this was about.“Ho
**Alana's POV*“Alana!” My mates screamed and immediately rushed towards me. Caden pulled me up in his chest, but I was weak. I could hardly lift myself up and blood was dripping out of my mouth. It is no joke that I was dying.If I could sustain this much impact, I wonder how my wolf was. “Darling!” I heard my mom's voice as she rushed over to meet me. At this point, my mates let her carry me in her embrace.“Darling, why did you have to sacrifice yourself for them? If I had known this is what you had planned, I never would have given my powers to you!” She said and cried bitterly."Please don't cry mom, I'm okay.”“No you're not! You're not okay at all, you're dying.” My mom bursts into more tears. My mates let out painful growls. I wanted to tell them that it was okay, but I couldn't even speak anymore. To be honest, I could feel my powers slowly depleting. It wouldn't be long before all of my powers will be exhausted. By then I seriously don't know what I'll do.“Luna Hanna, what
