GEMMAMy mother followed behind me while I led her to the dining hall. Anytime I glanced back at her, she offered me a soft smile. Weirdly, it brought a smile to my face. It was so sure. My mother was right here.As we passed by a large window, right after the large staircase, the morning sunlight filtered through, casting a warm glow. The polished wooden table was already occupied by Luna Queen Sandra, Alpha King Nate, and George."Good morning, Your Majesties," Ronnie said as she came close to them. "George." She gave a low bow.I had no choice but to follow along. Nate sat at the head of the table while his mother and George sat at his right side. I took a seat on his left, pulling out the chair next to me for my mother to sit.Ronnie sat quietly, occasionally glancing around the room as she ate. I watched my mother closely, noticing how out of place she seemed in this grand palace.Queen Sandra spoke up first. "Ronnie, dear, how did you find your accommodations last night?" She as

GEMMAI left my mother alone and instructed the maids to make sure that they gave her dinner. I needed some time to get my thoughts together and I was sure she needed time to adjust.The next morning, I went to train. I got up early and began to work on the punching bag after a few laps around the palace. The training arena was oddly quiet and it felt stifling.I heard footsteps and I turned to see Nate and George approaching. I stopped and watched them."You up for a match?" George asked. I glanced at Nate."Sure," I replied. This was my chance to let out some steam on the object of my anger and frustration. He prepared himself and then stood opposite me, his posture relaxed yet vigilant.Thoughts were swirling in my mind as I stretched, reading myself. This training session was supposed to be about honing my skills. But beneath it all simmered a storm of resentment and unresolved emotions.Nate raised an eyebrow, his voice calm. "Are you ready, Gemma?"I clenched my fists, the memor

GEMMAThe shock traveled down my spine as I stared with slightly wide eyes at my mother. "What?" I asked."I don't belong here. This palace, it's your place, with your mate. I can't fit in here. I like staying in Alpha Elias’ pack. It's my home." She explained to me, a little too quickly.My heart broke and I grabbed her hand. "But you're my mother. Don't you want to be with your family?" I asked."I do, Gemma. I do. But I can't. I'm sorry. And I can't ask you to leave the palace to come stay with me." She said. "I can stay for a few days. So we can bond and see if I'll remember anything."Unable to speak, I nodded, bowing my head, dejected.I heard a huff before Madam Margaret spoke up. "Now, we'll be on our way." She said."I would like to speak with Gemma privately," Elias spoke up. I lifted my head and swiped at my tears quickly.Madam Margaret's lips twitched. "What for?" She asked."It's nothing of your worry, mother." He replied and walked towards me. "Shall we?""I'll be right

GEMMAI stood rigidly in the hall of the palace, my gaze fixed on the double doors that were the entrance to the palace. She was supposed to arrive anytime soon. The wait was suffocating, the silence too.Nate and George stood aside, waiting with me. I looked down at my dress and adjusted it with shaky hands. I hoped I looked good. I didn't know what type of person she wanted me to but I wanted to look presentable for her.Jeans and hoodies couldn't work in this situation. We heard the sound of cars approaching and I think my breath hitched a bit.Alpha King Nate approached me. His presence, usually a source of comfort, now added to my unease. Regardless of the bond that pulled me to him, my hate was surpassing it."You're prepared for this, Gemma?" He asked. My anxiety must have shown through.I nodded stiffly, my jaw set in determination. "Yes. I appreciate your arrangement.""It's necessary," he replied curtly. "Family matters should be resolved, regardless of our differences."We

ELIASI swallowed and met her eyes. "Oh, really, who is it?" I asked. I acted bored. I continued walking and she followed after me."I think it's someone in the Alpha King's pack," Ashley said looking around. "There have been rumors that the White Wolf was reincarnated in that area.""Those rumors are going around?" I asked. Who was starting them? And how did the person know about this?"Yes. Everyone is curious who it would be." Ashley replied."If the Alpha King truly knew the White Wolf, I feel like he would have revealed them by now," I said, carefully. I needed to get her off this trail and give her something else to focus on."Hmm, I guess you're right. But, I want to meet this mythical White Wolf. They're like literally the talk of the wolf world." Ashley said.I ran through my mind of places I could send her to, to give her something new to focus on. "Ashley, concerning the Gemstone pack…" I started. It was time to put her to good use."What is it?" She asked. "Did they do som

GEMMAI saw red. "Madame Margaret?!" I almost screamed, jumping to my feet. "Why the hell is my mother with her?"I began to pace around the room, biting my finger. "She knows. She knows that she's my mother. But how? How did she find her? And why did she send her my way?" I began to ask questions. Hopefully, they were the right ones."You think she wants to use her against you?" George asked but I could hear the disbelief in his voice."You don't know Madam Margaret the way that I do," I told him. "She's cunning and she's smart. If she sent my mother to deliver a message to me, she'd tell me directly what she's capable of doing. Who she has in the palm of her hand.""I think you're overthinking this. How would she know that woman is your mother? Couldn't it be a coincidence?" George asked.I shook my head. "Calling this a coincidence is even more far-fetched. Madam Margaret has had issues with me. Ever since I disobeyed her and joined the moonlit festival to find my mate, she has wan
