SELENA'S POVAs they got closer, I recognized them. It was Alexa and the other pack fighters. They were walking towards the pack house, and they were all okay. I felt a wave of relief wash over me, and I rushed to open the door.I looked around for Alpha Duncan, but he was nowhere to be seen.Alexa walked up to me with a sad expression.I looked at him and asked.“Where's Alpha Duncan....?"He sighed...“We.... Um.... we...lost...him...." He stammered as tears rolled down his eyes.I felt like my heart had stopped beating. I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. I felt like the world was crashing down around me. I reached out and grabbed Alexa’s arm, shaking my head.“No…” I whispered. “No, that can’t be true. It’s not true.”But Alexa just looked at me with a sad smile. “I’m so sorry. I know this is hard, but it’s true.”I felt like I was going to collapse. I felt like my entire world had crumbled. I had lost the man I loved, the man I was going to spend the rest of my life with.
SELENA’S POV“Oh my god.” Amy said, her eyes wide.“What do we do? We need to get her to the pack doctor fast!”I tried to stand up, but the pain was so intense that I couldn’t.“Help me, please.” I said, my voice weak.“I need to get to the doctor.”Amy held me and told Alexa to help me up so that they could take me to the pack doctor so I could deliver.“But the baby isn’t due until two weeks, why is she coming now?”“I guess it’s because of the baby realized that they mother was stressed out by the news she just heard.Anyways, we need to move her fast.” Alexa said, as he held me and helped me up to take me to the pack’s doctor.The journey to the pack’s doctor was agony. Every bump and turn was magnified a thousand times.I clutched at my stomach, trying to breathe through the pain. I was sweating profusely, and I felt I was going to pass out.But I knew I had to stay strong. I had to stay strong for my baby. I couldn’t give up.I knew that Alpha Duncan would be counting on me to
ALPHA DUNCAN’S POVI stayed by Selena’s side as she recovered. It was already five days six hours, twenty five minutes and thirty seconds she had been in the pack hospital after the C section.Doctor Otsuki couldn’t explain why she had not woken up after the procedure.Just then, she opened her eyes faintly and looked at me.“Hey there.” I said, smiling at her.“Welcome back. How are you feeling?”“My baby….” she whispered, her voice weak.“Our baby is doing great.” I assured her as I held her hands.“The doctor has been checking on her regularly, and she’s perfectly healthy.”She let out a sigh of relief and closed her eyes again.“Try to rest.” Sitting back in my chair.“You need to take it easy and recover.”She shook her head.“No…. I need you to help me find… Alpha Duncan…. Have you gone to Alpha Owen’s pack yet, Alexa….?”I smiled realizing she was still not sure I was the one sitting next to her. The drugs must still be working in her system as she was seeing me as Alexa and no
A New Beginning The moon was bright in the night sky, shining over the pack’s territory. The scent of flowers filled the air, a nice scent soothing to the senses. All seemed at peace in Duncan’s pack, a stark contrast to the stormy events that had happened in recent times. Selena now Luna of the pack, stood on the balcony of their home, her eyes fixed on the stars. The scars of the past were slowly healing, but the memories of their trials were still fresh in her mind. A warm breeze ruffled her hair, and she placed a hand gently on her swollen belly. Life had taken an unexpected turn and Selena had found herself carrying a new life again, a symbol of hope and resilience. Duncan’s second child would soon grace the world with its presence, a testament to their enduring love. Inside the pack house, their daughter Muna slept soundly in her crib. Selena had named her after the brave Muna who sacrificed herself to save her because of a promise she had kept to Alpha Duncan. Duncan step
*Selena's POV*I and Alpha David were taking a walk around the palace when he suddenly brought up the topic of the mating ceremony."The mating ceremony will be held tonight. I apologize for the short notice, but as the Beta, I would love for you to ensure that nothing goes wrong," he said, and I nodded in agreement."You can trust me with that, Alpha," I assured him."Also, Alpha Duncan , the Lycan king, will be in attendance.""What!?" I blurted out, taken aback by the news. Alpha David looked at me with surprise."What's wrong, Selena? Why are you so shocked?" he asked, clearly confused.The mere thought of the Lycan king filled me with a deep hatred. He was a cruel and heartless man who didn't deserve to be the Lycan king. I couldn't believe he would be visiting our pack.The mating ceremony, held twice a year, attracted people from far and near, all hoping to find their mate. I suspected that was the reason Alpha Duncan would be attending since he had no mate. But if he were t
*Selena's POV*I didn't know what to expect when I said those words, but I definitely wasn't prepared to see him chuckle."Do you think I'll accept your rejection, Selena?""Why wouldn't you? It would be best for both of us. I don't want you, Alpha Duncan, and I'm determined to reject you countless times.""But I want you, Selena. I've been searching for you for a long time, and now that I've found you, I won't simply let you go. You're my mate, and the sooner you accept that, the better.""But I—""I don't care what you want," he interrupted, moving closer to me. He held my chin, ensuring I met his gaze."You're mine, Selena. You belong to me, and I won't let you go. I won't leave this pack without you. You'll come with me to where you truly belong," he said with a smirk.I slapped his hand away. "And if I refuse?" I questioned defiantly. "You can't force me into something I don't want.""If you refuse, be prepared to see your beloved pack reduced to ashes. I won't stop until I get
*Selena's POV*As we embarked on the journey to Duncan's pack, the hours seemed to stretch endlessly. The landscape outside the car window blurred into a hazy mix of colors, indicating the passing time. My mind drifted, lost in a windstorm of thoughts and emotions.I couldn't help but wonder how this decision would affect my life. Leaving behind everything I knew and journeying into the unknown was both frightening and exhilarating. My heart fluttered with a mix of eagerness and unease.Glancing at Duncan, who sat beside me, I couldn't read the thoughts behind his indifferent expression. We hadn't exchanged a single word since we set off, and the silence between us was both a blessing and a curse. It offered respite from his overbearing presence, but it also left me alone with my twisted thoughts.I pondered over the circumstances that led me here. The twist of fate that bound me to him as his mate felt like a cruel joke. How did I end up with a man who fills me with fury to no end? T
*Selena's POV*The next day, I wandered through the palace, exploring its corridors and rooms. I hoped to enjoy the grandeur and beauty of the place without Duncan's interference. However, no matter how hard I tried to avoid him, he persisted in pestering me. It was frustrating and irritating. I just wanted some peace and solitude, away from his constant presence. But it seemed like he had other plans, determined to make himself a nuisance in my life.One thing I also came to notice was the sexual relationship Duncan seems to share with the females here and it made me angry seeing them shamelessly flirting with him and him doing absolutely nothing about it.And as for me, each time they see me, they all kept looking at me like I was some sort of alien who fell from another planet, but I choose to ignore them instead and glared at anyone who gave me a look of disgust.Tired of all the drama, I went back to my room. I couldn't stop thinking about what was happening at the pack and how
