Valeria POVโAre you enjoying Daddyโs Pack?โ I asked Egan with a small smile on my face.โYes, Daddy Pack is the best,โ he said, moving all around the phone. I could just tell Damien was holding the phone, and Egan was walking all around talking.โI am glad. Have a goodnight rest. Mommy missed you but would see you soon,โ I said.โHow soon?โ he asked, his voice louder. Now he is closer to the phone. โVery soon. Make sure you sleep early. Donโt sleep past bedtime, and also donโt disturb Daddy too much,โ I said.โOkay!โ he yelled, still so active. I sighed; he is definitely sleeping past his bedtime. Damien chuckled.โHow are you doing?โ he asked. I smiled.โI am the same,โ I said.โHave you started working on what you said?โ he asked.โNo, I havenโt informed the warriors about the war yet; I would like to talk to Dmitri first. Then we can get everything in motion,โ I said. โOkay, when you are ready to just keep me updated,โ he said, and I smiled, nodding my head. I hung up the phone,
Valeria POVAdrain trashed around on the bed, trying to get the mark off him, but he canโt undo what I already did. The only thing he was doing was getting blood on my white sheet, which annoyed the fuck out of me. But I wasnโt worried; he would have to wash that later. My door burst open, and I turned to look; it was Ruby. She rushed in with urgency, looking around, and her eyes widened when she saw Adrain trashing on the bed. She probably thought it was me screaming.โYou thought it was me?โ I asked, sitting on the comfortable sofa not so far from the bed. She turned to me, and her eyes widened in shock.โWhat did you do to him?โ she snapped, looking at Adrian in shock. A soft laughter left my lips at what she said.โWhat did I do to him?โ I asked. She looked at Adrian, running to him and trying to keep him from hurting himself, but he pushed her away. He is mine now; his loyalty lies with me.โWhat did you do to him, you bitch?โ she yelled. Anger rose deep within me as I looked at
Valeria POVA horror filled scream left Daus lips and before he could run to his mom, I blocked him, carrying him out of the room. He fought with me, screamed and scratched me to let him go but I was barely affected. I took him to his room, dropping him on the bed and I stared at him blankly. Iโm sorry you had to see that Daus, no child deserves that, but your momma is evil. She definitely didnโt think of my son and what he would go through if I was dead because no way would I live with that bastard mark on my neck.โDaus,โ I called. โMommy, I want my mommy,โ he cried out loudly. I sat on his bed, carrying him on my lap and petting his back softly.โIโm sorry,โ I said, not sorry for what happened to Ruby. I am just sorry he has to see that and live without a mom and possibly a dad.โMommy,โ he cried. I pulled back, and I sighed.โSleep,โ I commanded. He blinked his eyes repeatedly, looking all drowsy. And slowly, he fell into my arms, passed out. I sighed, patting his back softly.โI
Valeria POVI continued sprinting to Damienโs pack, and when I got near his pack, I was jumping on the censor so they knew I was coming. When I got to the pack, I saw the guards and Dante looking at me from the walls, and they were shocked. I canโt mind link them as I am no longer in this pack. I moved back, then I ran with all speed, growling as I tried to jump off the high wall. The warriors all yelled, causing a commotion as I jumped over the wall, landing on my paws.โValeria? Whatโs going on?โ Dante asked, running to me. I howled, ignoring him and running to the pack. Dante shifted, running after me. I know he was trying to catch up, but I was in momma bear mode. It was late at night, and I was worried about my son. Who did Titus send to take him? How are they even going to take him in this pack filled with security? Dante growled behind me, and I hoped he was talking to Damien. I continued running, ignoring peopleโs yells of surprise as I passed them.After a few minutes, I was
Valeria POVI got back to the pack, and I headed to the dungeon.โHow is he doing?โ I asked Collin.โHe has gone crazy; he keeps growling and scratching his neck. I tried to stop him, but he is strong and needs more than one wolf to tame him,โ he said. And before I got to Adrain, I could hear his loud growling.โAre you with his phone?โ I asked.โYes, itโs with me,โ he replied, and I nodded my head. We got to the dungeon, and of course, only he was here. He was rolling on the floor, growling at everyone and everything.โOpen the gate,โ I said. Collin looked at me wearily, but opened it, anyway. I entered the cell, and he was still rolling on the floor, trying to get rid of his mark.โAdrain,โ I called, and immediately he tensed up. His muscles moved, and slowly, he turned around. At first, he looked like a crazy animal, with no ounce of humanity behind those eyes, but when his eyes fixed on me, he became normal. He fell to the floor, crying out.โWhat have you done?โ he cried out. I r
Valeria POVI walked inside the pack house, heading to the conference room and before I got there, I could hear them discussing. I entered the conference room, and it was a full house. I have never seen so many Lycans together before.โJust the wolf we were waiting for,โ Dmitri said as I walked in. He looked the same as he was, not much different. โSorry I kept you all waiting,โ I said, smiling at Damien.โShe apologies,โ Dmitri said, with heavy sarcasm. I turned to him.โHow are you doing, Dmitri?โ I asked. He smiled.โI am the same as ever. I canโt say about you though,โ he said. I gave him a long look, breathing out. I really donโt have strength for his energy.โDid you tell him everything?โ I asked Damien. He nods his head.โYes,โ he replied. I turned to all the men.โSo, Iโm guessing you all understand,โ I said. โYes, we do. But I hope you know killing Lux is going to affect the moon goddess,โ he said. I nod my head.โShe deserves it; I blame her for everything thatโs happening
Valeria POVSo many grunting, groaning, swords clashing later, Lux was still standing on her feet. Blood all over her body. She stood away from us, her sword out as she tried to catch her breath. I wasnโt even tired; I must say she put up a good fight. She definitely lasted longer than I would have imagined; it was nice to see her still fit after so many years. But she knows this is a fight she wonโt win.โGive it up, Lux,โ I said, looking at her. She chuckled dryly.โNice to see I havenโt lost my touch. I had some hits,โ she said, looking at all of us. She is right; her sword cut into my arm, and that is all. Everyone has injuries too, but just in a few places. But for her, itโs all over her body. She almost got beheaded by Dmitri; she moved out in a millisecond. โYou are already dead,โ I said. She smirked.โNot if I have something to say about it,โ she said, running to me with speed, aiming for my neck. I could tell she put all her remaining energy into that run; she already knew s
Valeria POVMy horse gallops down the woods, my army behind me all crying out tears of war. Today is finally the day we get rid of the pillars, just a week after we killed Lux. Am I excited about this war? No, but do I want them all dead? Yes. I have been anticipating this for a week. I know the aftermath is going to be terrible, and I am prepared for everything. I just want the Pillars dead and the werewolf world to be taken back to normal.โAlpha Damien is way ahead,โ Collin said, and I nodded my head. I pushed my horse to ride faster; we are supposed to move first according to our plan, but I guess they went before us. We got to the palace where they have been hiding all this while, and itโs already a bloody battleground. Titus definitely came prepared, but there is no way he is overpowering three different armies. Mine, Damienโs, and Dmitriโs. He is outnumbered.โRemember all we have trained for and make me proud.โ I mind-linked, and they all roared. I left them, leaving Collins t
Third Person POVโValeria!โ Rosy cried, running to Valeria as she came down from the car. Valeria chuckled, receiving her hug. Rosy cried loudly, her hormones playing with her emotions.โI am so happy you are okay,โ she cried, and they all watched in surprise. Of course, they all hated Rosy for what she did, and Joseph wanted nothing to do with her until Levi told him she was pregnant. He accepted her back after her heartfelt apology. Joseph has not forgiven her yet, but they are working towards it. Rosy has turned a new leaf; she is getting to know Joseph more. She has been joining in, in cleaning the house, engaging him in talks and loving him just like he loved her. Rosy knew it would take time, but she was willing to wait. She shouldnโt have done all those things she did, and she spent hours learning how to make apology cookies to share with everyone. Joseph watched her; she was so concentrated on making it perfect, and he smiled, happy she was really serious about the change. But
Third Person POVValeria heard whispers around her, and she slowly opened her eyes. She was in the world with bandages and stitches all over her body. Of course, they had to bring her to their organisation to be treated. After everything that happened, Dmitri informed them about Valeriaโs injury and he would be taking her for treatment. He told them they would be back when she was well on her feet, and they nod their heads. Dmitr, Egan and Valeria immediately left, and she was treated. There were so many injuries, they have no idea how she was still able to stand. After five days, she was just waking up.โSheโs awake,โ Cassidy said as they towered over her. Valeria looked up, and they were looking down at her.โPlease, get out of my face,โ she mumbled, her voice hoarse. Egan sat on the bed and hugged her tightly.โI was so worried, Mom; I thought I lost you for a second,โ he said. Valeria chuckled.โI canโt die so easily,โ she mumbled, and he pulled back.โThere were injuries all over
Third Person POVThe bombs kept blowing up, and gunshots rang, and Valeria and Rosy ran down so many halls. No one was in sight; everyone was outside, firing bullets at each other. Vladimir was backing out orders, and Grace was behind him. All she could think about was Valeria. The threat she made, the dangerous glint in her eyes. Those were not just threats; she meant it. She was planning something.โDo we know who is attacking us?โ Grace asked, rubbing her hands together.โNo,โ Vladimir snapped.โBut this place is secluded. How could they have known the location?โ she asked, and Vladimir was thinking the same thing. Which of his men betrayed him? But they possibly couldnโt have. They all sworn to secrecy, and he knew how to threaten all his men to remain loyal to him, and none had ever betrayed him.โPerhaps itโs Valeria? She threatened me earlier. She seemed confident,โ she said, and Vladimir knew it was impossible. She is weak, having taken so many beatings. How could she have cal
Third Person POVRosy cried silently as they once again beat Valeria. Her face was swollen and filled with blood. There was not a single skin in her body with no blood. Her white gown was filled with bloodstains, and she could see her eyes rolled to the back. How is she still alive? Why isnโt she begging for mercy? She keeps taunting the guards, saying things to them, and they keep hitting her harshly, taking turns. She is afraid of Valeria and scared for her. At this rate, she would be dying soon, and still they are not stopping.โValeriaโ, she cried, and Valeria kept talking about all the hits. Nothing was blocking her from them; she could feel the pain in her stomach, but Valeria had to clench her hand tightly because she feared if she didnโt, she would rip off the shackles holding her back. The door opened, and Grace walked in.โLeave her,โ she said, and the men breathed out, moving back. Valeriaโs eyes were swollen, and her mouth was dripping with thick blood. She chuckled, her b
Third Person POVโHave you found the location?โ Dmitri asked as he looked at Carter.โStill searching, havenโt found any leads,โ he replied, and Dmitri sighed. They were in one of his apartments, and he was waiting for Cassidy and Egan. He doesnโt know how to get to them; they can only wait for Egan to contact them, and 5 days have gone by, and they have not gotten any message from them. Dmitri is starting to worry, but he knows they are probably looking for Valeria.โItโs been days; are we sure Valeria is still alive?โ Nova asked.โOf course she is; they wonโt kill her off so easily,โ Mia replied, and she sighed. Dmitriโs phone pinged, and it was a message from Egan. He sent an address. His phone rang, and he picked it up immediately.โYou found her?โ he asked.โYes, we did. The tracker on her was shaking. They are far away. You should come to the address. The girls work alone, so we have to meet them there; they have already left,โ Egan said, and Dmitri nodded his head.โOkay, we ar
Third Person POVDays passed by, and Valeria has not spoken a word. They have injected her with so many injections, and the machine put on her head was releasing toxins every hour to weaken her. Valeria was trying to keep her strength. She knows it is not time to execute her plans yet, and she also knows they are looking for her. She will only execute her plans when she knows they are here, so for now, she needs to endure all the pain. Rosy, however, was regretting all her actions. She shouldnโt have done what she did; she shouldnโt have hated Valeria because Dmitri didnโt pay attention to her.She grew up in a spoilt home, and her parents always tell her she can get anything she wants. Rosy is not used to being told no, and it angers her when people refuse her. She did it out of hate; when she was contacted to bring Valeria her joy, she knew no bounds. She wanted her to suffer. Now she was here, her pup was in danger. Joseph would have found out what she did, and she knows this time
Third Person POVโWake her up,โ the harsh voice of Vladimir said as his men moved towards Valeria. They carried buckets filled with ice water, and they poured it on her harshly. Valeria flinched a bit, her head banging as she slowly opened her eyes. At first she was confused about where she was, but she remembered something hitting her, and she saw Rosy. Her eyes opened fully, and she saw she was in a spacious room, a very shiny room. The floors were tiled, and the walls were painted white. There was a huge mirror on the left side of the wall, and Valeria knew people could see them from the outside, but she couldnโt see them.โSeat her up,โ Vladimir said, and they took Valeria by her arms, putting her on a comfortable seat, and then they strapped her in. She looked at everyone in front of her: Rosy, Declan, and some masked men. She turned to the man in front of her, and she knew it was Vladimir. Funny how she didnโt know what he looked like until now. Declan and Rosy had smirks on the
Third Person POVIt was nice, and Dmitri drove down to Miaโs house to pick Valeria up. He didnโt know she was going to take so much time. He has been so busy with Egan and Cassidy trying to solve the issue at hand. He didnโt want to tell Valeria; he loved how peaceful she had been. He didnโt want her to worry. He packed in the driveway and got down from the car. He walked to the front door and rang the doorbell. After ringing it twice, Mia opened the door.โDmitri, what are you doing here? Come in,โ she said, confused at why he was here. Dmitri smiled.โDonโt worry. I came to pick Valeria up,โ he said, and Mia looked back at him confused. Valeria? She left several hours ago.โShe left hours ago,โ she said, and Dmitri was confused.โReally? I havenโt seen her,โ he said, trying to think itโs probably not what he was thinking.โWe were talking, and she suddenly got up all excited and said she would be right back. We figured she was coming to you,โ Mia answered, and Dmitri quickly ran to
Valeria POVโReally?โ I mumbled, playing with my nails. She nodded her head.โOf course. Do not doubt his love for you. Dmitri is the kindest man I have ever met; he cares for everyone around him and does his best to make everyone comfortable. He is the oldest Lycan here and the most powerful, but he never made anyone feel inferior by his power or influence. Everyone knows Dmitri here and in Helna. I was always so worried about him; we didnโt know who Valeria was or what type of person she was, and he didnโt say much about her. We were worried she was going to be a bitchy person who doesnโt give a fuck about him. Imagine how happy we were when we found out during the party he was with someone so nice and friendly. You two are a match made in heaven,โ she said, and I chuckled.โShe is right, Valeria. You are absolutely worried about nothing,โ Mia said, and I smiled.โBut how were you two able to move past your mates?โ I asked. They both smiled.โNova is lucky she met her mate, and her
