The man turned to fight me, his face twisted with desperation.

“Stay back!” I told him, but he ignored me and drew a small, rusted blade from beneath his cloak.

I smirked, his confidence unwavering. “You’re going to regret that.”

I can easily take this piece of sh*t down at any monemnt. However I have to be conscious of the baby on my back. The fight was brutal but short. The man lunged with the knife, but I dodged easily, my training giving him the upper hand. I delivered a swift punch to the man’s gut, making him double over.

“You think you can take a child from this pack and walk away?” I growled, landing another blow to the man’s jaw.

The man swung the knife again, but I caught his wrist, twisting it until the blade clattered to the ground. With one final strike, I knocked him to the ground.

As the man groaned, trying to crawl away, I heard the sound of boots pounding against the cobblestones. I turned to see a group of guards running toward him.

“Over here!” Caleb shouted.

  • Luna Lyra   Getting to know the prisoner

    LyraThe morning sun streamed through the windows, casting yellow light across the modest furniture of my home. I was arranging fresh flowers on the dining table when I heard the knock at the door. My heart skipped a beat as I wasn’t expecting anyone.I know there’s a guard at the door but after the kidnapping incident concerning Leo, I have been more careful. I set the vase down and asked Maria to go check who’s at the door while I went near the crib to stay close to Leo.My plan is to grab him and start running if it was an intruder at the door. Even though Jaxon and Calista have assured me that I am safe here, I can’t help the feeling that something can go wrong again.Maria came back to inform me that it is Beta Luke at the door and I heaved a sigh of relief. I went back to my seat and asked her to let him in.A moment later, the Beta walked in, his sharp features illuminated by the sunlight. He waved a hand to dismiss the guard who accompanied him, leaving the man stationed outsi

  • Luna Lyra   Finding the rogue

    DamienThe winds howled like mournful spirits as i raced through the dense forest with my beta, Rowan, and a pack of skilled warriors at our side. I had heard reports of rogues breaching the northern borders, and I told Rowan to get a group of warriors and follow me.I would not allow such an affront to go unchallenged. My protective instincts burned like wildfire within me, urging me to act swiftly and decisively. The earlier I nip these attacks in the bud, the better. My plan going forward is to meet the rogues head on and kill every single one of them.By the time they suffer great losses in my hands they will stop bothering my pack. It seemed as they had a special fondness for my pack, I’m not sure other places get attacked this frequently. Anyway, I had revelares death for them all from now onwards. That was the focus of my discussion with Rowan two days ago and what we are going to do here today. Rowan had suggested that we try to find out why it seems that they are always atta

  • Luna Lyra   Did he talk?

    DamienThe dungeon was a cold, damp chamber beneath the packhouse, lit by a single flickering lantern. I stood outside the cell, my arms crossed, glaring at the rogue who had shifted back into his human form. The man was wiry, with scars running across his face and arms. He sat slumped against the wall, his breathing ragged but his eyes defiant.I signaled for the guard to open the cell and I went in with Rowan standing just outside. I glared at the man who was looking at me without any fear in his eyes.“Who sent you?” I demanded, my tone like the crack of a whip.The rogue just looked at me and chuckled, a low, grating sound that only stoked my anger. He didn’t answer my question. This infuriated me and I can’t use my alpha aura on him because he is not a member of my pack.“I said who sent you to attack my people?” “You think I’ll talk?” the rogue sneered. “You have no idea what’s coming.”“You’re going to tell me everything,” I said coldly, stepping closer. “Or I’ll make you wish

  • Luna Lyra   His obsession

    MarcusI couldn’t keep still. My legs carried me around my study in restless circles, the ornate carpet muffling my hurried steps. The large grandfather clock in the corner ticked away mercilessly, a constant reminder that time was running out. Three days, three whole fu*king days has passed.Yet I have not heard anything from the person I sent to Crewwood. I had sent that useless, son of a wh*re to do a simple job. A simple job. And not a single word from him since.The Sol Group meeting loomed over me like a dark cloud, set for tomorrow. I could feel the weight of it pressing down on my chest. Facing them without the little child in my possession wasn’t something I’d planned. But now I have to go along with them and pretend that all is well.Oh, that blasted son of mine! Any fool could have done this job effectively. What’s so difficult in picking up a baby, a little human being?“Damn!” I said as I hit a flower vase my wife had kept in a corner. It shattered to pieces. I looked at

  • Luna Lyra    Her Gift

    LyraI arrived at the Luna's house just as the sun dipped below the horizon, casting a soft golden hue across the hills. The evening air was cool, carrying the scent of pine and earth, Calista's favorite, I thought, as I walked up the gravel driveway. This is because I perceive this scent more than others here.Luna Calista greeted me at the door, her arms open wide, and that familiar warmth of her presence made the tension in my chest ease for the first time all day. Her hair was still a wild cascade of dark curls, and her eyes, they always seemed to be full of mischief. But I have known Calista to be anything but calm and gentle."Lyra!" she said, pulling me into a tight hug. "Good to see you. How are you doing?”I smiled and hugged her back. "I am good. And you?" "I am doing great,Lyra." She stepped back, eyeing my son, Leo, who was in my arms looking around the room, his wide eyes full of curiosity.”And how is my little man?" I passed Leo to her and he didn’t even make a sound

    I nodded, glad that she understood where I am coming from.“Well, you are still at the early phase, from what Sable said. And I believe with time, you can decide to block out what you don’t want to hear. Or even concentrate on only your loved ones. You have Sable to guide you. She is a good woman and she will help you."I hope you are right." I took a deep breath. "I don’t know how I feel about all this. But I guess I can take it one day at a time.”“That’s the right attitude to take,” Calista said, studying me carefully, her expression hard to read. "Lyra, you’ve always had the strength to face whatever comes your way. I’m sure you will overcome this too." I nodded slowly. "I know. Sable says I’ll be ready soon, but I don’t know. It feels like too much sometimes." Calista leaned forward, her gentle hand brushing mine. "You don’t have to do this by yourself, Lyra. Whatever happens, you have me. And if you need to, we’ll figure it out together." “Thank you so much, Calista. I fee

  • Luna Lyra   I want to help her

    I shook my head. “No, it’s not harmful. At least, it never was for me. It’s just some traditional herbs and roots. Nothing dangerous. I’ve watched my mother prepare many times before, for others who needed it. The only side effect is that it sometimes makes you… a little more ummm like you are in heat. I hope you understand.”She chuckled at this. Her lips curled into a thoughtful smile. “Of course I understand, Lyra. And that is not a problem.”I laughed softly, the sound light and freeing. “Glad to hear that.”Calista remained silent for a few moments, then finally nodded. “Alright, I’ll give it a try. But I’ll need to know everything that we need so we can get it.”I nodded enthusiastically, already reaching into my bag to pull out a small notebook. Inside, I had written down the ingredients my mother had used, the steps to make the potion exactly right. “There are a few key herbs,” I began, flipping through the pages. “First, you’ll need Myringwort. It’s a root that grows near th

  • Luna Lyra   His confession

    Then he stood up.“I heard you can read minds. Are you reading my mind right now?” he asks me while coming closer.“No, I am not,” I replied, wondering where this is going.“I wish you were. So that you can know how you have consumed my mind, how much I think about you. How I want to hold you and care for you. This is what has been going through my mind from the first day I saw you at our border with a protruding belly.”Shock!Silence!!What did I just hear? No, I have to be sure that I heard right.“What?” I said with my mouth and eyes wide open."I care about you," he said, almost too quietly, as if the confession was a weight he had been carrying for a while. "More than I should." The words hit me like a cold rush of wind. My heart stuttered in my chest. I blinked at him, momentarily speechless, the weight of what he had said settling heavily between us."You ...you care about me?" I asked, my voice barely above a whisper, as if I had misheard him. I still don’t believe this. “Bu

  • Luna Lyra   Does he know me?

    Luke was finishing up his conversation with some men from our pack, laughing softly at something one of them said. Even from here, I could tell he was trying to be diplomatic. It seems he doesn’t really like these kinds of events. I knew he was just counting down the minutes until he could see me.When he caught sight of me, his entire face lit up.He dismissed the men with a respectful nod and made his way toward me, swift and sure.“I was beginning to think you’d abandoned me,” he teased, his voice low and warm.I smirked, stepping into his space. “Hardly. I had to get away as Elder Marcus tried to interrogate me about you.”He raised a brow. “Elder Marcus? Interrogate you about me?”“Mhm. He saw you and started acting like he’d seen a ghost. Keep asking where you’re from, your name, your pack.” I leaned closer. “It was honestly kind of hilarious.”Luke frowned, but only slightly. “Do you think he knows me?”“I doubt it. He hasn’t met you before, so he can’t possibly know you,” I sa

    I saw Denise beside her and they both looked lovely but I wanted to spend some time with my wife.I walked up to them and complemented Denise but she seemed to see through me.“You look lovely Denise.”“Just tell me you want to spend time with your wife, I’ll understand.”“Come on Denise. Can’t I compliment my sister again? And I told the truth about your dressing.”Lyra was just laughing. “Well, thank you brother. But I’ll leave you guys alone and go look for my own man,” she winked at Lyra and left the stage.I shook my head and turned to Lyra. “That girl.”“She’s happy,” my wife said. Her hand slid into mine, her warmth grounding me. I nodded and didn’t say anything. I don’t want to think about her and her mate right now.“You’re brooding,” Lyra said softly, her eyes searching mine.“Observing,” I corrected, giving her a small smile. “Your father... he’s been acting strange.”She tensed slightly, the change so subtle most wouldn’t notice. But I knew her too well. “He’s probably

  • Luna Lyra   Elder Marcus is shocked

    “Good. Now you need to call your nanny to carry Leo, so you will have time to dance with your man. You need to show off that slit more and show that b*tch that you are in charge.”I smiled but I agreed with her. I haven’t really shown my husband my beautiful outfit so I looked towards the nanny and motioned for her to come. She came and carried Leo while I continued chatting with Denise. Soon Damien rejoined us.“You look lovely Denise,” he complimented his sister.***Damien’s povWhile I greeted the guest I saw Luke and his warriors and I went to them and thanked them specially for all they have for my wife and I. I also thanked them for staying for the ceremony and wished them safe travels tomorrow.I clasped Luke by the shoulder and took him a little way out from his people.“I hear that you are my sister’s mate.” “Yes, Damien. I just found out too and as you can imagine I am just as surprised.”“But I hear you are already making plans.” I looked dead in the eyes.He didn’t cower

  • Luna Lyra   The speech

    Lyra’s pov“So I called you here to celebrate,” my husband continued talking. “Celebrate with us, celebrate with my family, celebrate with our pack as the goddess has blessed us greatly. No matter the worries or challenges we may encounter in our country, we are not consumed. Rather, we have been winning and will keep winning. I urge you all to enjoy yourselves tonight, as there is a lot to eat and drink.”The crowd erupted in joy and happiness as the cheers and clappings got louder. I’m glad our people are happy to be here and are receiving this news with joy. I was a little apprehensive that many of them may wonder why we hid the news of my return and rather prepared a feast to reveal. But it seems I have nothing to worry about at all as they don’t mind at all. Damien raised his hands, and they quieted down.“You will all agree with me that our goddess has been blessed, and it is evident in the good news we are celebrating today,” he said, pointing at me and Leo.A ripple of agreeme

  • Luna Lyra   Celine comes for Damien

    Damien’s povThe soft hum of classical music greeted me as I entered the grand hall, my polished shoes clicking against the marble floor. The lightning decorations above bathed the environment in a warm golden glow, casting delicate patterns on the grounds. Guests were scattered throughout, sipping on champagne and mingling in groups. Everyone was dressed to impress, as they always were at these events.I adjusted the hem of his tailored caftan with matching pants against my skin. I scanned the room, my sharp gaze catching familiar faces. The room buzzed with excitement and curiosity—my invitation had been vague, after all. I had called it a “special celebration” without revealing the true purpose of the night. That, of course, was deliberate. Let them speculate.I looked around the venue. By this time the last of the guests were seated, the ceremonial grounds were packed. Rows upon rows of chairs stretched out before the grand dais, which was adorned with cascading white flowers and t

  • Luna Lyra   Lost in a daydream

    “I hope they checked around the area for others. Anyway, Tobias knows his job.”“Yes, he does. He said they checked thoroughly, and there was no other wolf around.“Probably stray rogues,” Rowan chuckled. “Nothing to worry about. Still, we have tight security.”My lips twitched with a ghost of a smile at Rowan’s words. Rogues are already considered stray wolves as they have an allegiance or loyalty to any pack. So he calls these ones stray rogues, and it's just him having a run of words.“You used the elite warriors we trained for security tonight, right?” I asked for another confirmation from him. I’m sure he will understand why I am asking for reassurance. This note might be nothing, or it might mean something huge.He nodded. “Like we planned. This place is highly secured.”“However, tell our warriors to be on alert, as we don’t want any surprises.”“Sure, alpha,” Rowan said and pointed at me. “Now you need to go and dress up. You will soon be called for your address.”I slapped hi

  • Luna Lyra   An Ominous note

    She’d said she was happy, and I believed her, but something about the timing felt off. Why now? Why did she seem so eager to leave the packhouse and follow him back to his territory? I shook my head. Maybe I’m overthinking this.I shook off the thought, forcing my focus back to the task at hand. I didn’t have the luxury of distraction tonight.“Alpha Damien,” a familiar voice called out, pulling me from my reverie. I turned to see Tobias, my Gamma, approaching with a grim expression. Tobias was tall and broad, with a sharp, no-nonsense demeanor that made him indispensable to me and this pack.“What is it?” I asked, my voice low.“There’s been... a situation,” Tobias said, lowering his voice further. “One of the scouts reported movement near the northern border. It might be a rogue.”My jaw tightened, my instincts sharpening instantly. Rogues. They were a persistent problem, always testing the boundaries, looking for weak points to exploit. Normally, they wouldn’t dare approach on a n

    “I want you to be happy, Denise. But I need to know you're not rushing into something because it feels right at the moment. Luke might be a good man, but remember, a mate bond isn’t just about feelings. It’s about trust and understanding as you would be getting married soon.”“I know, I know,” she replied, her voice slightly exasperated but still gentle. “I’m not a child anymore, Damien. I can make my own decisions.”I smirked, my protective instincts easing for a moment. “Of course, you're an adult now. But I’ll always be your brother, and I’ll always look out for you.”I paused, watching her for a moment. My heart softened as I realized just how much she had grown up in the past few years, though my protective instincts still ran deep. She is not the same young lady I sent to the human world to school.“Are you happy, though?” I asked softly.She met my gaze and smiled. “Yes. I am. I didn’t think it was possible to feel like this with anyone, but he makes me feel safe. I think that’

  • Luna Lyra   Are we going home?

    I left his hand as soon as we got close to the doors. I wouldn’t want them to see me with my hands in his for now. When we are properly introduced, then I can hold his hand all I want. Luke seemed to agree as he just smiled at me. The moment Luke pushed the doors open, the room erupted into cheers.“Beta Luke!” one of the men shouted, his voice booming. Several others surged forward, clapping Luke on the back and shaking his hand. Their joy was palpable, and it warmed something deep inside me to see how much they respected him.“It’s good to see all of you,” Luke said, his voice carrying over the noise. He raised a hand to quiet them, and the room fell silent almost instantly. “I know there’s been a lot of confusion, but I want to assure you that everything is resolved. What happened was a misunderstanding, and it’s been handled.”The men exchanged glances, nodding in approval.“What about back home, Beta?” one of them asked. “Is everything secure there?”Luke smiled faintly. “I’ve he
