Ralf’s POV

I clenched my fists, and my nails dug into the flesh of my palm. My fangs protruded as my eyes glowed in the dark. I felt my wolf's rage filling my insides—easy, Scar. Revenge would come, and it would come soon. I smile wickedly.

I would give Sera’s head to Dylan as a peace offering.

I pushed aside the curtain and ventured into my sleeping chambers. Darkness descended all around me, and I moved to light the candle on my dressing table. The room brightened, and my face reflected in the mirror.

The jarring scar cutting across my face from my hairline to my jaw is evidence of the grueling battle a year ago. Aidin had granted me the scar as evidence of my betrayal, but look who survived the war.

“Muahahahaha,” I throw my head back in laughter. Aidin was six feet under with his beloved mate and responsible son. I would send him his lovely daughter and the cute twins to com

Where in the world was my mate?Our encounter felt like a figment of my imagination, but persistent nightmares of my mate’s brutal death kept me awake at night. I had to find her and protect her.Sunlight streamed through the gaps in the trees as we raced past. The tree leaves dripped moisture from the early morning dew. A team of rabbits went into hiding on sighting us. The chirping birds took flight at our noisy approach. My wolf, Noble, raced with abandon. I am with my team for the pack tour, and we are all in wolf form.We left the Snow Moon Pack behind us and ran towards the next. In the Werewoods, the most common mode of transportation was to travel in wolf form. We shifters felt at home in the woods and unrestrained in our wolf form. Our hooves

    Draco’s POV“Welcome once again to our humble abode. We’ve just completed some renovations to the space. We replaced the furniture and redecorated the house,” Maximus explained as we entered. I glanced around the magnificent house. Well, not so humble.“I’ll go get the pack cook to set up the table. We’ve prepared a feast in anticipation of your arrival.” Beta Spencer glanced at me with a patronizing smile on his face.Since I became the Alpha of my pack and considering my reputation as the strongest Alpha in all the Werewoods, I’ve been on the receiving end of such gazes. Most people can’t see past the wealth and glory associated with being me. They can’t reach the blood, sweat, and tears it took to get to where I am today.I ignore Spencer and glance towards Maximus. “How is the general situation of the packs within this area? I presume your knowledge of the packs’ general situation is excellent, given your pack’s prosperity in these p

    Draco’s POVOur conversation got interrupted as the pack cook brought the meal. A plate of pork chops with rice and grilled vegetables was before me. I look around to find my pack wolfing down their dinner. It was a leader’s duty to ensure his pack’s care before caring for himself.After checking on everyone, I move to tackle my plate.Alpha Maximus and his Beta, Spencer, led us to the guest chambers. It was a detached little cottage, separate from the pack house and the other houses belonging to the pack members. I nodded my head in satisfaction. It was far away from the hustle and bustle of pack activities.The peaceful cottage seemed to radiate an air of serenity. It was a good place to rest. I was exhausted, and I was going to pass out the moment I got to the room prepared for me. It took sheer willpower to hold myself together and not fall flat on my face.By the expression on their faces, I could tell they were tired. I glance at Se

    Sera’s POVStill Moon PackIt was fifteen days after I’d received the shocking news of my pregnancy, and I still couldn’t wrap my head around it. The news had spread like wildfire throughout the pack, and I still don’t know how. My plans of keeping the news under wraps were dead on arrival since the news had spread even before I could get up from bed in the wake of my collapse.The entire pack was in chaos because of the news, and various speculations had spread, even reaching my ears. I hold my head at the thoughts of the most outrageous ones. As I went about pack duties, I didn’t miss the speculative glances I’d been getting.And to make it worse, Millie had been hoarding me about my mate’s identity, but I couldn’t bring myself to tell her the truth. I had escaped the twins’ scrutiny by distracting them with gifts and toys. But, by the knowing look in Bill’s eyes, I knew I hadn’t fooled him.I had taken Hyde’s words with levity and resu

    Sera’s POV“You are up. How are you doing?” Millie walked towards me, looking concerned.“Not good. I still can’t get out of bed without feeling dizzy. And I still can’t eat breakfast.” By lunchtime, my nausea would ease up a little, and then I could eat properly. I need all the extra strength I can get since the pregnancy is draining me.“Now, don’t you go worrying your pretty head about pack matters? Miles and I are handling it. Max would arrive any day from now. He has concluded the investigation of the backgrounds of the new pack members.”Max is Miles’ best friend and an enforcer of the pack. He loves to travel around the Werewoods and even beyond. He handles all the pack matters conducted outside the pack.“I hope he isn’t cutting his trip short because of me?” I knew he didn’t like to be caged, so I tried to give him as much liberty as possible.“Well, not exactly. He is coming back so soon because of the pups. He couldn’t

    Sera’s POV“They’ve been badgering Daphne about the gender of the pup. Also, Ruby tried to escape the nursery a few times to play around the pack but was discovered by Joan. The pups are getting restless. Ann went to the bathroom the other day and did not return until Daphne went to find her. She discovered Ann fast asleep on the toilet bowl.” We burst into laughter.We had twelve pups that had lost their parents to the battle a year ago. I created the nursery and left Daphne in charge of the pups. Later, busy pack members dropped their pups there. The pups had become a handful even with Linda’s help.“Sera! Sera! Sera!” Ruby burst into my room with Bill and Bryan at her heels. She rushed to hug me, and I caught her fast, fearing she would bump into my belly. I still haven’t come to terms with the situation, but I already felt protective of the pup in my belly.“Ruby, slow down. I’ve told you always to be careful. What if you’d tripped?” I caresse

The twins glanced around in confusion. Their world was about to shatter, and they had no clue. My heart ached desperately for them.A battle meant bloodshed, and that meant the death of our loved ones. This pack couldn’t afford to lose any more members. We were barely holding on now.“Beta Ralf is back? I thought he had died off somewhere!” Millie’s disbelief was reflected in her voice.Dad had beaten Ralf badly when he challenged him, but his fight with Amary had left him barely alive, and then his men had carried him away. Everyone had assumed his death.However, I’d always known he would return, but not this soon. The pack was unprepared for battle.I needed a rapid, strategic response.I turned to Miles. “How many shifters are with

    Sera’s POVI stood and watched as Bryan left with the twins.“Seriously? His first mission as an enforcer?” Mille rolled her eyes at me.“I had to get him moving.” I shrugged as I glanced at her. The boy needed a push in the right direction. “Besides, he would have kept badgering us to join the battle.”“He can be so persistent.” Millie sighed. “What should we do about Ralf?”All my amusement died at her words. We had only defeated him with Amary’s help a year ago. Now, Amary couldn’t help us.“I have a plan, but only the moon goddess could help us now. The enormous difference between our warriors and Ralf’s concerns me.”Millie sighed, “We can only pray she protects us for the sake of the pups.”“Let’s head to the meeting room.”Millie and I headed out and towards the meeting room. We could hear murmurs of voices floating out of the room. It appeared news of the impending attack had spread throughout t

    Sera’s POV“Who’s she?” I asked once again as Draco remained silent, lost in thoughts.I turned to the boy, Theo, and he gave me an apologetic look, embarrassed at his slip-up.Draco was my second-chance mate, and I’d always known that he too once had a fated mate, but I was never really curious to know the story behind it as I never intended to honor the mate bond.But now things are different.If we were going to move forward as a pack and as mates, I think it’d be right to know.I turned back to Draco and stared at him, determined to get the story out of him.Draco let out a defeated sigh and turned to Theo, who was now shaking in his seat at the tension which filled the room.“Theo, you may take your leave now. I’d tell Seb to send for you again later,” he said, glancing at Theo.“Uncle Draco…” Theo started, glancing worriedly at us both. He stood and went to Draco’s side, trying but failing to whisper, “Did I cause any sort of trouble?”“No, boy. We just need to have this conver

    Draco’s POV“Come in,” I said, as I stood, turning around to watch the door, my voice layered in frost.The door opened to reveal Grace leading in other female shifters, carrying my personal effects and clothes into the room.They quickly filed into the room, filling up the space with a riot of scents from various shifters and checking up my nostrils. The space which I considered an intimate space for me and my mate quickly became clustered and I frowned in annoyance.Grace asked as she glanced at me, “Alpha Draco, where should we place your things?”“Just put them on the couch and the bed. Put the heavier ones on the floor. I’d sort them myself,” I said, impatient to be rid of them quickly.“Alright, Alpha,” Grace said, throwing curious glances at the washroom where the sound of a running shower was obvious.“Excuse us,” Grace said, as she turned around to usher the other shifters out of the room after they’d dropped off my things as instructed.She had an excited look on her face an

    Draco’s POV“Draco?”Once it was lunchtime, Daphne took the twins away to eat. I hadn’t eaten all day, but I couldn’t bring myself to leave my mate all alone for even a minute.Besides, I had no appetite to speak of while Sera lay there immobile and lost in the dreamland. I sat by the bedside, just watching my mate’s serene face for a while, with no idea when she’d wake.Various thoughts ran riot in my head as I feared for the worst. I’d dozed off without knowing when the familiar, now raspy from the long sleep, sounded like it was from a mile away.The persistent voice forced me to regain consciousness to make it stop.“Draco!”I opened my eyes and glanced around Sera’s large, feminine room, only to find her watching me curiously with her eyes open.Eyes open? Sera’s awake!“Draco, what are you doing here? Why are you sleeping on that uncomfortable couch when you have a perfectly fine bed in your room?” Sera asked with a bewildered look.“Well, I thought I’d crash here since I don’t

    Draco’s POVThree hours later, I remained at my mate’s bedside watching her still unmoving figure when the door opened with a tiny creak and I turned to the door, a frown marring my brows.I had made it clear to Miles and the rest that I wanted no one to disturb us unless it was necessary, but barely hours later, someone came calling.The door remained open, and the doorway was empty, and I frowned, confused at what was happening.“Sera?”Ruby’s voice came from the door, and I chuckled in amusement.Our visitor was a little person.“Come in, Ruby. Sera’s sleeping,” I said, my voice a little over a whisper.Tiny footsteps came from the doorway as Ruby waddled her way over to the bed, standing on her tiptoes to get a better look at Sera.The little girl was in a baby pink princess dress with frills at the edges and glossy shoes that shone even in the room. “Come over here,” I said. “I’ll lift you to the bed.”Ruby gave me a look of disapproval, standing with her arms akimbo.“No, I can

    Draco’s POV“Millie, get someone to transfer all my things from my room to Sera’s room. I’m going to keep a watch over her myself,” I said as I stood by the bedside in a daze, watching as my mate’s chest heaved as she breathed.The room fell silent at my words, and they all turned to me.“Okay. I’d do that right away,” Millie responded as she went to carry out my orders.I turned to the rest of the room. “For the pack’s matters, Miles and Seb, you both would take charge and work as representatives of both packs. You both would report to me on any important issue,” I said as quietly as I could, so as not to disturb my mate.“Bruno and Max, I’d leave the pack’s security to you both. Bruno, take the team to study the pack’s terrain and map out the major spots so we can position the enforcers to guard the pack.”“Max would help to ease the relationship between both packs and serve as a bridge. You guys are to work hand-in-hand with Steve, the head of the border enforcers to achieve this.

She held the helm of her dress with trembling hands as she spoke.But I didn't give a hoot about how vulnerable she looked as my eyes narrowed down on her and my aura was wild as I observed her, my wolf Noble, coming to the surface.Everyone in the room let out a whimper as my pheromones filled the room, forcing their wolves to submit.The air was thick with tension and the large living area was deadly silent.“Speak!” I growled in Aria’s direction, voice thickened by my half-shifted state. My claws extended, and my eyes released an eerie glow in the living area. My now furry ears pricked as the air thickened with the scent of fear leaking from their bodies.“After- after Alpha Draco left, I suggested the Alpha have her meal and take her drugs, but she insisted that she’d like to rest more. So let her

    Draco’s POV“Hope the pack didn’t encounter problems along the way?” I asked once Sebastian and Bruno had reached my side.Seb shook his head. “No, it was smoother than we’d expected. There were no signs of rogues along the way.”“I guess the news hadn’t traveled fast enough,” Bruno said as he glanced around the woods that surrounded the Still Moon Pack.The Still Moon Pack’s woods were relatively larger than those of most packs, and the pack had maintained them properly.The trees grew in a deliberate sequence, and its leaves were lush and glossy in the sunlight. The branches provided enough shade, so we hardly felt the sun on our skins as we moved along.In the Werewoods, every pack had its little woods where we let our wolves out for regular runs and held various celebrations in our wolf form in honor of the Moon Goddess.The woods served as both an escape for our wolves when needed and a shield for each pack against ambush.Only pack members understood their woods perfectly and co

    Draco’s POV“Alpha!” The members of my pack all turned at the sound of my voice, calling out their greetings on sighting me.I studied them for any signs of bruises and released a sigh of relief when I didn’t find any.Sebastian and Bruno stood at the forefront while the surrounding enforcers protected the rest of the pack in the middle.Although they looked travel-worn, it hadn’t dampened their spirits, and they didn’t seem affected by the attitude of the enforcers of the Still Moon Pack.Sebastian had his usual look of watching a show, his lips curved in a smile, an icy glint in his eyes, while Bruno had his usual stoic looks as he watched the antics of the enforcers in the Still Moon Pack.Their demeanor assured me I wasn’t putting my pack under more strain than they could take in my quest to be with my mate.Once the border enforcers noticed my presence, they fell silent; only the chirping of birds and crickets in the woods and the cooing of a few rabbits nearby filled the cleari

I watched her with a sharp look and a grim smile.“Which pack did you say you came from? Remind me.”My voice filled with murderous intent.“Alpha, I have lost…”I was waiting to hear her cooked-up stories when Sebastian’s voice came once again through the mind link.I put up a finger, signaling to Aria to hold on as my eyes glazed over, signaling that a connection had been established through the mind link.“Alpha, we have a situation here. We are having difficulty getting through the line of enforcer here.”“Enforcers?”“Yeah. A couple of enforcers are insisting we leave and have refused to let us in.”I let out a sigh as I ran my fingers through my hair, eyes still on the female shifter before me.This interrogation was going to wait.“I’m on my way now.
