Draco’s POV

A surge of protective instincts welled in me as I wondered what the problem was. Millie’s words cut my musings short.

“This way, please,” she said, leading the way as Sebastian and I trailed along.

 The meeting room was a large, airy room that smelled like lavender. The room contained rows of seats that could fit many. However, for this meeting, only 5 persons would be in attendance.

Everyone filed in and took up seats at the head of the main table in the room. I had Sebastian on my right, Miles and Millie on my left, and Sera sat far from me.

“I believe we have all been properly introduced. Then let’s get right down to business.” Sera said in a grave tone.

I watched the words leave my mate’s lips as she commanded the room with a glance. A sudden urge to grab her and kiss her senseless before everyone, right here and now, filled

    Draco’s POVThere had to have been something that made them take such a risk. Something that assured them of victory. Something that only an insider scoop could give them.There was a spy in my mate’s pack, and I was going to find out who it was.Sera shared a look with Miles and Millie. I got the feeling that they knew the reason for the sudden attack of the rogues.There was something they were not telling us, and I was determined to find out.Sera stared at me. “Ralf, the former beta of the pack, led the rogues. We are yet to find out why they suddenly attacked now after staying quiet for so long.”Miles continued, “We’ve been trying to locate Ralf’s hideout to wipe them out for good, to no avail. Max has been out for so long trying to trace them.”Sebastian asked, “Who’s Max?” Millie was the one who replied. “He is a member of this pack and also an enforcer. He handles all external affairs of the pack.”I was silently watching them.“Have you ever considered that a spy in the pac

  • Her Second Chance Alpha   The Mate Bond

    Draco’s POV I haven’t been this aroused since the death of my fated mate about 5 years ago. My wolf howled in joy. The delayed reunion with our mate had taken a toll on him. To a wolf, being without its mate was torture, and most couldn’t last long with their other half. “You must be joking if you think I would give up,” I said nonchalantly. A surge of possessiveness filled my bones. My wolf came to the fore at her words. My eyes shone an eerie grey in the airy meeting room. I wasn’t letting her out of my sight for a moment. Not even the Council could prevent me from being with my mate. Sera stared daggers at me, but I didn't care. There was no escaping this. “You can’t force me into this. A mating can only succeed if it’s consensual..” I stopped her words with my lips. She remained frozen in shock as I kissed her. I took advantage of her shock to deepen the kiss. She began struggling against me, but I had a firm grip on her. I had her where I wanted her, with no in

  • Her Second Chance Alpha   Sera’s Fears

    Sera’s POVMy trembling legs gave way just as Draco exited the meeting room. My heart pounded relentlessly, and I crumpled into the nearest chair.I could still feel his lips on mine. The intensity of the kiss had left me breathless and wanting more. I tried to feel nothing, to pretend to be unaffected by him, but it wasn’t working.It had been a struggle to keep up the facade. I desperately wanted to embrace Draco and welcome our beautiful bond, but I couldn’t risk my pack’s safety. This pack had been the only thing left of my once beautiful family and I couldn’t trust anyone to take over while I sat at the back burner.The last time I’d trusted anyone, it’d ended with the deaths of my family members. Dylan had taught me, and I’d learned. I’d learned that letting people in was like throwing open the doors to your perfectly maintained mansion for pests and flies to feast.The resultant effect was always ugly to look at.Succumbing to Draco’s wish would mean handing over the lives of

    Sera’s POV“So what? You intend to reject him?” Miles lifted a brow as he watched me.I replied instantly. “No, of course not!” Rejecting him felt too brutal even to consider. I knew what rejection did to a wolf; it was an ugly sight.The room descended into silence at my words.“So, you care for him?” Miles had a knowing look in his eyes. “That’s beside the point. The pack is important to me right now, and I’d rather face that.”“Why can’t you stay with your mate and keep the pack safe? Who says you can’t have both?”His words rendered me speechless.I felt naked under his knowing gaze. Miles always had that effect. It was like he could see through people.A world where I could be with my mate and still get to protect my pack felt so distant. The massive risk scared me, especially since I distrusted my mate’s intentions toward the pack.My position as Alpha meant exposing the pack to unpredictable variables should I accept my mate.“It’s not that simple,” I said helplessly. “I am

  • Her Second Chance Alpha   Amary’s Thoughts

    Sera’s POVA strange sense of foreboding filled me. It was a wonder how the spy had been listening for so long, with Miles and I remaining unaware of the presence of a third party.Although I couldn’t shift because of the pregnancy and I experienced dizziness and weakness, my wolf’s presence was still very much pronounced.Miles also possessed a potent wolf aura, with his wolf being the strongest in this pack besides Amary. Were we too distracted to notice what was going on around us?The mole could be more powerful than us or had mastered the art of concealing one’s aura perfectly, or both.Although we had visitors in the pack, the probability that it was one of them was very low.“We have to deal with the mole ASAP. I don’t know how long we can take this,” Miles said in a dangerously low voice.He had murderous intent in his eyes. Miles wasn’t a very patient wolf, and the mole was getting on all our nerves.A frown marred my face. Inform Max to return to the pack ASAP. We need to

  • Her Second Chance Alpha   Dinner

    Sera's POV“Listen, I can feel his wolf and fully trust his intentions. Don’t destroy what we share with them over your mistrust.”Her words sounded genuine, but I trusted my discretion. There was a reason I was the logical one of us both.“Well, he’d have to prove that to me before I let him anywhere close to this pack.”“So stubborn.”Then she went dead silent again.I was feeling better, so I stood up to head out of the office and into my room. I need to get some rest before we gathered for dinner later in the evening.Draco was very astute, and I wouldn’t want him getting a hint of the pregnancy. It was hard enough to wade him off even now.The living area was quiet as I ascended the stairs. Everyone was out running errands or resting in their rooms.I sighed in contentment. The present peace was what I craved, and I wouldn’t allow anything to take that away from my pack. On reaching the top of the stairs, I came face to face with Daphne, leaving her room, a little distance away

    Sera’s POVMillie moved towards the food tray and removed the lids on the dishes. A pleasant, mouth-watering aroma wafted around the living area and filled every inch of the room.We were having a feast. Cindy had outdone herself this time—the dishes overflowed with sizzling brisket, paired with a serving of potato salad with apple juice.Cindy placed a plate before me, and my mouth watered. I hadn’t realised I was so famished.An even more enticing aroma drifted into my nose as I prepared to dig in. The thick scent of wood and musk hit me just as chaotic footsteps came from the stairs.Draco appeared at the top of the stairs in his full glory, looking fresh and well-rested. I struggled to look away, barely even paying attention to Sebastian, who had also appeared together.The pull of the mate bond was so strong that I struggled to resist.As more members of Draco’s team followed in their alpha’s wake, I struggled not to look in his direction.They all settled in as Cindy finished se

    Sera’s POV“I’ll be back, mate. And this time, it would be to claim you as my mate.”I froze in shock as I watched his form fade into the woods, the rest of his pack following closely at his tails.I blinked as I glanced around the room in confusion.That was undeniably Draco’s voice in my head just now. I shook my head to clear it.We hardly used the mind link in my pack; I’d forgotten it also connected mates.Thinking back to his words again made me shudder. It sounded more like a threat.I shook my head to clear my thoughts as I let the curtains down and headed to my bathroom to wash up.My mate was gone, so I could now focus on pack duties again. I had to get things done before my regular dose of dizziness and nausea kicked in.If I couldn’t get any sleep, then I might as well prepare for the upcoming meeting with the top members of this pack.After cleaning up, I moved to the bathroom mirror and stared at my reflection. My eye bags looked terrible, as if I hadn’t slept in days.

    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.

    Draco’s POVAria came down the stairs while we all were still in shock, Seb and Bruno trailing behind her.Her face was pale, and her eyes brimmed with unshed tears, making them glossy. 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

  • Her Second Chance Alpha   Settled

    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

  • Her Second Chance Alpha   Trouble at the Borders

    Draco’s POVI moved even closer to Aria as she watched me with that familiar, harmless, disarming smile on her face.But that smile couldn't disarm this Alpha as I was no fool. 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. Try to control the situation to prevent things from e

  • Her Second Chance Alpha   Not Safe

    Draco’s POV“Alright. Just approach the enforcers while I inform Sera,” I responded through the mind link.I took a glance at my reflection in the mirror, making sure there was no issue before exiting the room.Once I arrived at the Still Moon Pack with Sera from the Crescent Hills, and the pack knew my identity and purpose, they put me in the guest room at the far end of the west wing.It was a large and comfortable room which was just next to that of Miles and Max, but it was far off the east wing, which had Sera’s room at the extreme end of the wing.Since each wing had about 5-6 rooms, that placed about 8-10 rooms between my room and Sera’s room.As far away as possible.I’d caught Millie’s sly grin as she assigned me to the room, so I knew what she’d been up to.But I hadn’t minded.Because I had plans of my own.Plans to move from room 12 to room 1 in the uppermost wings of the pack house.I glanced at Max’s and Miles’ doors as I walked past, headed straight to my mate’s room.B

  • Her Second Chance Alpha   Arrival

    Draco’s POV“Alpha, we are almost at the Still Moon Pack’s border.”Sebastian’s unmistakable voice came into my sea of consciousness as I slept, and my eyes immediately snapped open.I was in the large, Queen sized bed in the guest room of the Still Moon Pack’s pack house.“When will you be arriving?” I asked as I sat up on the bed, still grouchy from sleep.“We should be there by mid-morning. The team seems wary, but it’s more important to complete the trip ASAP. So, it’s nothing we can not handle,” Seb concluded.“Okay. Inform me when you arrive at the borders,” I said.“Yes, Alpha,” Seb replied and cut off the connection.I sighed as I fell back on the bed, my arms crossed behind my head, staring up at the chandelier hanging from the ceiling of the room.It was a beautiful piece with an intricate design and complex curves, but my mind was far away from it.I glanced around the guest room and sighed in satisfaction.The room’s sparse furnishings included mismatched furniture and a s

    Sera’s POV“Alpha, we have a problem!”I was in the pack’s dining area having breakfast with Draco, Miles, and Max, and finalizing the details for Draco’s pack when the doors burst open and Grace, Max’s sister, came in through the doors and exclaimed with a pale face.I glanced up at her, a frown creasing my brows as I asked, “Grace, what’s wrong? What’s going on?”She came forward panting.Max sent her a glass of water, which she gulped down without pause as we watched.“Some pack members who are against the merger of the two packs are kicking up a ruckus in protest!”I let out a sigh, all my appetite for the dish of cold roast chicken and a glass of strawberry juice before me long forgotten.After the incident with Ruby in the nursery, everything had passed in a blur, as preparations for the merger had occupied our time.After the meeting with the leadership of the pack, the news spread like wildfire in the pack. The pack members had mixed reactions to the news.The logical ones amo

    Sera’s POVWe all fell silent at Ruby’s words and even the pups around strained their ears, waiting to hear Draco’s reply.I turned to Draco, whom Ruby had put on the spot, as if I were watching a spectacle. We were all waiting to see how he’d handle her.As we all watched, Draco crunched down before Ruby, looking her in the eye. He let out his all too familiar wide grin and finally gave a reply.“Yes, I am Sera’s mate. My name is Draco, the Alpha of the Silva Moon Pack. I am the father of your niece or nephew, which is going to come out any time from now.”I gasped at his words.Ruby’s eyes took on a vicious glint, which I’d never seen, and she reached out to hit Draco before anyone could stop her.“Bad Alpha. You are the bad wolf that got Sera pregnant and left her all alone,” Ruby said, her hands crossed over her chest in defiance.My eyes widened, and I watched, amazed at how my sister had defended me.
