Farrell “Alpha Farrell, we suppose this gathering is for good?” Elder Elias asked, his tone carrying a hint of concern as he adjusted his seat at the conference table. “Yes, Elder Elias. I only wish to wait for the Gamma to arrive before we proceed,” I replied calmly, and the elders nodded in agreement. I sat at the head of the table, with Sandra seated to my right. My brother, Raymond, sat directly across from me, while the six elders filled the seats along both sides of the table. Maids moved quietly, placing trays of snacks and fruit drinks in front of us. Sandra fidgeted beside me, clearly restless. I hadn’t shared the purpose of this emergency meeting with her, knowing it would upset her. But this wasn’t just about her; it was about the pack. As Alpha, any decision I made inevitably impacted everyone under my care. I had to do this, no matter how difficult it was. The sound of the double doors creaking open pulled my thoughts back to the room. Gamma entered, his expression
Delilah "My queen, there are things you need to understand when dealing with magic. Firstly, know the source of the magic. Secondly, learn the right way to control it," Rosa said, her voice steady and instructive. I listened carefully, nodding occasionally. "There are two kinds of people when it comes to magic: those born with it and those who practice and learn it. The ones born with magic are naturally powerful, and getting rid of them is almost impossible unless they are betrayed," she explained, her words carrying a weight that I couldn’t ignore. We were at the training field, a place Rosa had chosen for my lessons. It was an open area surrounded by tall trees, the sound of rustling leaves blending with the hum of distant voices. This was my third day of training. Tomorrow, the Gamma who introduced himself yesterday promised to teach me combat techniques. I was looking forward to it. "Are you listening, my queen?" Rosa's firm voice pulled me out of my wandering thoughts. "
Delilah I was caught off guard. I wasn’t expecting him to make this move. The moment Farrell’s lips touched mine, I felt a spark, an electric jolt that coursed through my veins and left me breathless. His lips were warm and firm, igniting something deep inside me. I almost totally surrendered to him. The way his hands moved over my body sent waves of sensation rippling through me, awakening a hunger I thought had long been buried for him. I craved more of his touch, more of this moment that felt so forbidden yet so not familiar. When I opened my mouth, welcoming his tongue, the kiss deepened. Our tongues tangled in a passionate dance, and for a moment, I was lost…lost in him, in the memory of what we once had. Yet, was different. But then, everything changed. Suddenly, I was no longer in the room. I found myself standing in an unfamiliar place, surrounded by seven women. Their faces were indistinct, yet there was something ethereal about them, their glowing forms shimmering like
Maxwell I knew it would come to this. I had anticipated it from the moment she entered the room, her eyes blazing with a mix of anger and vulnerability. Now that she was going to bring up her nanny, I remember I had already sent someone to fetch her. I had questions for the nanny too, but that wasn’t the focus of this moment. My mind was racing, trying to figure out how to make Delilah understand that this wasn’t easy for me either. How could I make her see that, despite everything, she needed Farrell to unlock more of her powers? It wasn’t just about her feelings or mine…it was about destiny, about the path the goddess had laid out for us. “You’re scaring me,” she said, her voice trembling. “You knew perfectly well I could hear your thoughts, yet you're still pushing it forward?” Her anger flared, and I could feel the tension in the room thickening. I moved closer to her, my steps slow and deliberate. My hands found their way around her body, pulling her into an embrace. I inh
Maxwell The early morning sun streamed through the floor-to-ceiling window of my bedroom, casting a golden glow across the room. I opened my eyes to the soft warmth, the world still quiet, still untouched. Beside me, Delilah snuggled deeper into my chest, her breathing steady and peaceful. I stayed still for a moment, savoring the weight of her against me. Yesterday training had been chaotic, filled with uncertainties, but at this moment, she was here. Safe. Mine. The screen of my phone lit up as I reached for it. 7:00 AM. Delilah’s training with the Gamma was in an hour. I hesitated. She needed rest. The previous day had been exhausting, and I knew she had pushed herself beyond her limits. Carefully, I shifted her head onto the pillow, making sure not to wake her. She murmured something incoherent but didn’t stir. A faint smile tugged at my lips before I slipped out from under the covers. The bathroom was cool, the steam from the shower curling around me as I let the water wash
Delilah Today's training was different. For the first time, I stepped into the underground training hall, a vast, cavernous space almost half the size of a field. The air was thick with the scent of sweat and steel, and the walls gleamed with embedded torches, casting flickering shadows across the arena. This was where King Maxwell trained, and now, apparently, where I would train too. Weapons of all kinds lined the walls…blades, staffs, guns, whips, even some that looked too ancient to still be in use. Training kits were stacked neatly in different sections, yet none of that mattered to me. I wouldn’t be using them, not today. My opponent stood a few feet away. Zod. A seasoned warrior and the pack Gamma, with the kind of broad, muscular frame that exuded raw power. His posture was relaxed but intimidating, his expression unreadable. I didn’t need anyone to tell me that he was stronger than me, anyone with eyes could see that. But what I didn’t understand was why he expected me t
SOMEWHERE IN A CAVE, IN THE WILD FOREST OF BOMADA "Sandra, there’s only one way you can win against her." The witch of the Blue Moon Pack whispered, her voice carrying a chilling certainty. Sandra frowned, her arms crossed. "What do you mean? I don't understand. Delilah is just a powerless human. I could crush her in seconds." Her confidence was unshaken. The witch narrowed her eyes, arching a brow as a dark chuckle slipped from her lips. "No, you’re wrong. She is far stronger than you think. Listen to me, Sandra, heed my warning." Her voice dropped lower, laced with an eerie urgency. "There’s something about her… Powerful forces surround her." Sandra scoffed, unwilling to believe it. She knew Delilah better than anyone. They had been friends since college, if there was anything extraordinary about her, Sandra would have known. The witch was mistaken. She waved off the warning like a bothersome insect. All that mattered was defeating Delilah in a way that wouldn’t raise suspicio
Delilah We arrived at the Blue Moon Pack. Our convoy came to a halt right in front of the place I once called home. The memories rushed back like a flood, each one sharper than the last. I blinked rapidly, forcing back the tears that threatened to fall. The convoy consisted of six sleek, black luxury vans, more than I had expected. I never imagined I would return to this place, let alone accompanied by people I barely knew. In my van, King Maxwell sat beside me, his presence both a comfort and a reminder of my purpose here. His sister, Rowan, occupied the seat behind us. Rosa and Zod were also with us, despite Zod’s injuries not having fully healed. For reasons unknown, he had insisted on coming. The Beta, Cross, rode in another van, along with some of our pack members. The rest of the convoy was filled with warriors. “Are you ready to walk into your home?” Maxwell’s deep voice broke through my thoughts. I turned to glare at him. He chuckled, amused by my reaction. I swatted hi
Delilah The morning came slowly. The sky was still gray when I opened my eyes. I hadn't really slept. All night, I stayed by my mother’s side, watching her sleep. I watched how her chest rose and fell with each breath. Maybe… maybe I was just scared. Scared to lose her again. The pain of losing her once almost destroyed me, especially when I was told that her brother was responsible for her death. I couldn't bear it happening a second time. But now… Now she was here. She was alive. The Moon Goddess had brought her back to me. Tears welled up in my eyes as I reached out and gently brushed her hair away from her face. She looked so peaceful… so fragile… but alive. I whispered a prayer of thanks under my breath. Aunt Kala entered quietly, carrying a wooden tray filled with a small bowl of porridge and a cup of steaming herbal drink. "Good morning, child," she said softly, giving me a warm smile. "Good morning, Aunt Kala," I whispered back. She placed the tray on the sm
Maxwell "Mama... Mama... please come back." That was all they kept saying. Over and over again, all through the night. I couldn’t sleep. They refused to sleep too. They cried and cried, calling for their mother. I was so helpless. I didn’t know what to do anymore. "They need her… They miss her so much…" I whispered to myself, rubbing my tired face.Their tiny voices broke my heart. It was not just them. I was suffering too. Without Delilah, I was only half a man. I couldn’t eat properly. I couldn’t think straight. I couldn’t even lead my people the way I should. Last night, something happened. Beka and Amanok opened another portal. This time, it was clearer, brighter than before. And there… standing in the light… was Delilah. She looked so beautiful, yet so tired. I wanted to reach out and touch her, hold her, tell her how much I missed her. But I couldn’t. Because just then, the pups cried louder, calling for her. I saw the way her face softened when she heard them. I knew s
Delilah The sky outside the cave was beginning to darken. The sun was slipping behind the hills, painting the clouds with the colours of pink and gold. I stayed close to my mother, gently holding her hand as we walked through the woods. Aunt Kala stayed by her other side, ready to catch her, if she stumbled. Each of her steps was slow, Each of the breaths she took was shallow. It hurt me to see her like this, fragile and tired. However, at the same time, I am happy that my mother is alive. And she was finally here with me. We didn't speak much as we moved towards a small cottage, hidden deep, in the forest. Aunt Kala had prepared it long ago, hoping that one day, this day would come. It was a quiet place, surrounded by wildflowers and grass, a place of peace. Inside the cottage, the air smelled fresh herbs and burning wood. Aunt Kala quickly made a bed by the burning fire and helped my mother lie down carefully. She pulled a soft blanket over her. I sat down on the floor, next
Delilah As I walked out of the temple. I knew that I was no longer the woman I used to be. But it is my destiny Aunt Kala sat down under a huge tree. She looked like someone in deep thought. “I am back.” I said. She felt startled. But quickly got up and straightened her robe. “Delilah, you're back.” She said with a cheerful smile. “Yes, I am back. And we need a lot to do. Can we proceed” I said, and she nodded. The air was cold as we walked through the quiet woods and Aunt Kala walked beside me without saying a word. Even the trees around us seem to know that something important was about to happen. There are branches really slowly, whispering secrets. I couldn’t understand the ground was soft with fallen leaves, and each step I took felt easier than the last. My heart beats loudly in my chest. I could feel it echoing in my ears. I was about to see my mother. The woman I had had so many stories about, but never truly knew she had been asleep for more than 20 years. As we
Delilah The air was quiet as we walked. But inside me, something powerful stirred, making me feel stronger with every step. Slowly, I began to understand who I truly was. All my questions were finally being answered. The words I had heard earlier repeated in my mind: “You are not just a werewolf. And you are not just a Lycan. You are both. You are the first of your kind. The one born to bring peace.” “You are the first of your kind.” These words echoed in my head over and over. With each step, it felt like the earth was guiding me, leading me to where I needed to go. Aunt Kala walked beside me, silent. She didn’t speak, but I could tell she sensed the change in me. After walking through the forest for a while, I turned to her. “Aunt Kala,” I said softly. “Where is the Ancient Temple? How do we find it?” She smiled gently. “You don’t need to find the temple, Delilah. The temple will find you,” Her eyes moved to the golden key in my hand. “This key led you here. I’
Delilah The priestess’s eyes began to glow, slowly turning into a solid, milky white color. It looked as if she wasn’t herself anymore, like something ancient and powerful had entered her body. A strange wind moved through the room, even though there were no windows open. My heart beat faster as I watched her, and for a moment, I wondered if I should be afraid. But deep down, I knew this was all part of something important. Something meant for me. She stopped chanting, and then the glowing glass on the mat began to change. What once looked like a swirling liquid became something more…something magical. It shifted into a moving picture, almost like a story playing out right in front of me. My breath caught in my throat. In the glowing circle, I saw two powerful figures standing face to face. Their presence made the ground beneath me feel unsteady. A strong, invisible energy filled the room, and I could feel goosebumps rising all over my arms. My skin tingled, and I couldn’t move or
Delilah I walked out of the room with Aunt Kala by my side. Two maids standing nearby quickly bowed their heads low. “Your Majesty,” they both greeted with soft voices. I nodded quietly. I still wasn’t used to people calling me that. It felt strange… heavy, like a title I hadn’t earned yet. But there was no time to think too deeply about it. We kept walking. The place around me was peaceful, like a silent dream. The buildings were very old, made with stones and vines, but still looked strong and beautiful. Every wall had some kind of glowing symbol on it. I didn’t understand them yet, but they didn’t scare me. Instead, they made me feel… like I belonged. The trees swayed gently above our heads. At first, I thought they were fake because they were so perfectly shaped, but they were real. I could tell from the way the leaves rustled in the breeze and the scent of fresh bark in the air. I started to notice something odd. Everyone here was female. They were either dressed in soft f
Delilah “What do you mean by that?” I asked, my voice shaking. “Don’t play with me, Aunt Kala. This isn’t funny.” My chest felt heavy, and my heart started beating fast. I was scared of what she was about to say. “I am not playing with you, Delilah,” she said softly. “This is the truth.” “What?” I gasped loudly. “You mean my mother… She's alive? And you never told me? How could you hide something so big from me?” My voice rose with each word. I couldn’t stop the anger building inside me. Kala stepped closer, her eyes full of guilt. “Delilah,” she said gently, “I know I made many mistakes. I know I should have told you earlier. But everything I did... I did it for you. I did it to protect you.” I folded my arms tightly. “You kept me in the dark. You made me feel like I had no one in this world. I thought I was all alone.” Kala sighed. “Your mother was poisoned by our brother, Keith. She was not killed, but the poison put her into a deep, magical sleep. Before she lost consciousn
Delilah “You are my aunty?” I asked in a sharp, angry voice. “And you never thought it was important to tell me?” My voice echoed through the room. I didn’t care if I sounded rude or disrespectful. I was hurt, deeply hurt. “All these years... Over twenty years, Kala,” I cried, my voice shaking. “You never thought I deserved to know the truth? Not even once? Do you have any idea how that makes me feel?” The tears I had tried so hard to hold back finally burst free. I couldn’t stop them now. They poured down my cheeks like rain, soaking into the golden robe I wore. “All these years,” I whispered again, choking on my words, “I lived like I had no one. I thought I had no family. I thought I was just some orphan that no one wanted. Do you even understand what that feels like?” I couldn’t look at her anymore. I turned my back and faced the wall. I wrapped my arms around myself, trying to stay strong, but my heart was breaking all over again. She was my family. All this time. And I n
