Killain's Pov I led us to a bench and gently wrapped a blanket around her shoulders.“I have a strong feeling of deja Vu,” she chuckled.I smiled, “this is definitely our spot for difficult conversations.”Somehow, we always came here to this bench under the night sky to have these kind of conversation.“Yeah. So, what's on your mind?”“Before that, I saw you talking with my father. Is everything all right? Did he say anything or threaten you?”She sighed, “something like that but I handled it. Sometimes, I wonder what the pack would do if they knew what happened.”“It won't be pretty.”“Yeah. I find myself wondering if I should forget about it since he's your father. After all, he can't do anything to stop me right now except kill me and I'm pretty difficult to kill.”“Sam, don't make decisions because of me. I appreciate the sentiment but don't do it. I don't want you regretting your decisions years later.”She dropped my gaze, her voice came out in a soft whisper, “will you still
Samantha's Pov “You are a very beautiful woman Samantha,” Celine said as she stared at me.I laughed, blushing at her compliment. “Thank you.”“Your hair glows under the moonlight. It makes you look enchanting.”“It really does,” Benny chimed, bouncing on his feet from a mix of excitement and nervousness.“Thank you Benny,” I smiled. The pack members were divided into little groups under the moonlight and eyes of the goddess. There was a pile of blankets waiting and food.“How are you feeling?” I asked Benny.“Excited, my wolf wants out. I'm also scared because I know it will hurt but I think I'm happy more than anything, that I'm able to do this.”Celine had a proud smile on her face as she gave him a fond pat on the shoulder.“That's very good. Don't worry, your parents will be by your side throughout the process and I'll be here waiting to meet your wolf.”He beamed, “alright.”“It's almost time,” Celine said as Killain walked to the middle of the gathering. “Go on, I'll be here
Samantha's Pov The smile on my lips was proving to be permanent because it hadn't gone since Celine left.I had shook off the fuzzy feeling from the wine and general good vibes earlier and was currently putting my room back on order.The full moon was tomorrow…I couldn't wait. I really wanted to see the young ones shift.Oh, their wolves will be so adorable.“Samantha,” Bryon called, knocking on my door.“Come in.”“I take it that you had a very good time with Celine,” his eyes went to the empty bottle of wine and leftovers on the plates. “Definitely,” I beamed. “What's going on?”The amused gleam in his eyes disappeared as he became serious. “The council has requested your presence.”That explains why Killain didn't stay as long as he usually did.“Alright. Give me a few minutes to freshen up.”“I'll be outside.”I brushed my hair and changed into something more formal. Glancing at my reflection, I took a deep calming breath.You can do this. You have already come this far, don't l
Killain's PovThank goddess it was over.While I felt relieved that the whole issue was resolved and no one was permanently damaged in the process, I still felt disappointed in Korra.I felt bad for Beta Morris and his wife. They definitely did not deserve this. I will go see them once everything has calmed down.I thought she would have learnt her lesson by now. I definitely wasn't expecting it to be her. If I was honest with myself, I would have preferred if it was the work of an outsider.I sighed and looked at the happy pack members. Samantha really did a great job and her relationship with the pack members had gotten better faster than I thought.I loved seeing her happy and free with them. She looked beautiful under the moonlight, her hair almost shimmering like silver.It will definitely glow under the full moon.She definitely belongs here.“Do you think she will stop here?” My father whispered into my ear. I had noticed him inching closer. “What are you talking about?”“Do y
Samantha's Pov “Korra!” Penelope slapped her arm, her eyes wide with disbelief and shock. “Allow the man to check your room so that we can put an end to this speculation.”“They aren't speculations.”“What are you saying?”Morris knelt and dropped his head on the floor. “Please alpha Killain forgive her. I don't know why she did it but please tamper justice with mercy. At least for the sake of the relationship you had in the past.”Penelope glanced worriedly at her daughter and joined her mate on the floor.“Please alpha.”“It wasn't supposed to be this way!” Korra cried. “I was just going to let it stay for a day or so. Then I'll tell Killain about it, you were supposed to praise me as a hero!!”“People almost died!!” Her mother screamed, looking at her in shock. Like she couldn't recognize her at all.“Bind her,” Killain ordered as we stood.“Please Alpha.”“Leave me alone!” She screamed, struggling as Bryon tied her wrists together.“Every pup about to shift was at risk of dying.
Samantha's Pov “Where did you find this?” I asked, taking the hairpin from Killain to have a closer look.“The bushes. No one is supposed to be there so I suspect it was thrown or dropped mistakenly.”It was definitely the hairpin. It looked old and well-worn but it was the same. Silver with delicate tracings on the body.“This hairpin…” Killain murmured.“Do you know the owner of this hairpin?” I asked.“I…” He frowned and turned to the men. “Some of you should stay with healers, the rest of you, we are going to Beta Morrison's house.”“How long do you have till the purification is complete?” I asked Malikai.“An hour at most. There are five wells and enough healers to handle them, we should be done in no time.”“Alright.”Killain turned to me. “It's Korra's hairpin.”“I know.”He didn't say anything or ask how I knew, we walked in silence.Why would Korra do this?If she wanted me out of the way, attacking the whole pack wasn't the way forward. She just put innocent people in harm'
