~Dion~

Gaston had kept repeating that Kedar might decide not to let Xyana go. I didn't see why he wouldn't, so I didn't take his worries to heart until now.

It all happened too quickly. I shouldn't have let her spend even a second with that fool called Kedar. The explosion was unexpected, but I doubt it was meant to do any reasonable damage.

That is why I quickly started looking for Xyana as immediately as I could, watching Kedar run off and refusing to go after him.

It wasn't until Gideon mind-linked me that he had her that I tried to find Kedar. But unfortunately, he was already out of the park.

Some of his hungry-looking soldiers were already trying to fight our men, and when I saw how they were being dealt with, I had to stop them from fighting the poor soldiers whom their scared Alpha left to their deaths.

As old and worn out as Salzar Obeden was, I saw him with a sword defending his pack against my men. But his pissy grandson ran.

'wonders!'

    ~Xyana~I found it strange when I didn't see Adina around my room since I got back. I've been attended to by an Omega named Fresca who barely says any word other than 'yes ma'am, food is ready, no ma'am,' and several other short clipped sentences.Adina will always add drama to her services. So much so that I find myself either laughing, angry, or entertained.I made my way downstairs to the little room the Omega directed me to. The room is small, with a fitting furniture arrangement that makes it appear like a small conference room. Excluding the Alpha, my mates were already seated on one part of the desk. Leaving the chairs on the opposite side empty and that of the head of the table. When Declan sees me, he walks around the desk to the opposite side, where he draws out a chair for me. Everybody looks tense. Even Declan, who is trying to be nice, has his cheekbones sharp and tight from the force at which he's clamping down on his teeth.I sit across them in silence while we wai

    ~Xyana~"My best friend is back!" Mona screams from across the hallway to my room.When she pushes my door open and sees me, she almost pushes me down flat on the floor. I literally cried into my room after the squabble between Dion and Clifton. I do not understand why Dion would behave the way he did. I agree that he might be upset, but aren't there better ways to handle his feelings?"Finally," Mona giggles as she holds me tight in a hug. "Nobody would tell me where you went to. Gamma Dion said you took a short vacation and I bawled my eyes out that day.""Why?" I ask, amused.She finally let go and sat on the bed. "Well, you went for a vacation without telling me. You didn't even mention it at any point in our discussion. So I thought you were mad at me. I tried calling several times but your lines never go through." She tugs on my arm. "Were you mad at me?"I shake my head, giggling. "Of course not. It was an impromptu surprise vacation. You know how my mates can be." I reply fol

    ~Xyana~Once Clifton helped me down from the car, Oona was the first to run out of the Packhouse to welcome me. I almost shed a tear at how much joy she felt, seeing me.Clifton chuckles when Oona ignores him, refusing to give him a hug and runs back inside.Omegas ran past me to the car. We came back to grab whatever we had in the car trunk if possible. Unfortunately for them, we didn't come back with anything at all.No clothes, nothing. I'd wanted to bring along the other piece of clothing Clifton got for me but he asked me to leave them for whenever we visit the Cabin again.At the sight of Dion and Declan standing on the porch, I almost break into a run. Goddess! Those are my mates in flesh and blood.First, my eyes set on Declan who is now standing at the edge of the top step, waiting impatiently for me, with smiles plastered across his face.I hurriedly climb the short stairs to the porch and swing my arms around him. He grabs my waist easily

    ~Gaston~ Zegulf and I move to my office at the Packhouse. Once we shut the door, he pulls his hat off and slumps onto a seat. "I think I'm going to explode with worries." Zegulf whines. "Me too." I sigh, "My thoughts are shooting over the roof. I think I need a day or two away from all of this." "Tell me something I don't know." Zegulf hisses. "Are they back yet?" He asks, changing the topic. "Is that why you came?" He flings his arm upwards in the form of a silent question. "Isn't that a good enough reason? Hello." I chuckle. "I don't think it's wise to see her today though. You can give her a few days before meeting her. My advice, though." Zegulf sighs and nods. He pushes a piece of paper across me. I turn the paper over and realize that it's a map. "That's the location we have the open barrier." Zegulf discloses. "I have the best men work on this." I frown. "For Goddess's sak

    ~Gaston~I almost pushed back when I heard the question. But knowing Wilbrae and how smart he is, he would notice even the rapid blink of an eye."What prophecy, Wilbrae?" He takes in a breath before he replies. "Your mother and I stumbled upon a prophecy several years ago." He glances around the hall. "is it okay to speak freely here, Alpha?"'Shut the doors,' I mind-linked Dion and Declan and they got to the task.The hall was built to offer soundproofing once the doors and windows were shut. "Speak, Wilbrae," I tell him once the doors get shut."The prophecy... it spoke of a Moon-made sent by the Moon-goddess. And this Moon-made will bring the two most powerful werewolf packs together and heal the land. But that's not all."I find myself tilting closer to him at that statement. That should be all. That is all we know. If it's not all, then what are we missing?Wilbrae brings his voice lower. "There will be war." He whispers. "The good witches will come back to finish what they st

    ~Gaston~It's been a while since I had a sit-together with my Pack elders. But with everything happening, I decided it was time I spoke to them.Xyana's presence in the Pack raised a couple of questions that I didn't want to address until Clifton sorted out the issue of Amon with Xyana.A whole lot has happened since Clifton left the Pack. Me and my brothers have been working tirelessly to get to the root of everything. Uncle Azzarus had to stay back to hold things down with me until Clifton returned, at least.Zegulf Landerman and I have surprisingly been working together to find the Witch, Kadila. But so far we haven't been lucky. Yet Zegulf doesn't seem willing to give up.Contrary to my discussion with Clifton, I didn't tell anyone about his findings and the things he went through to rescue Xyana.However, I shared a vital part of the information about the barrier opening between us and the underworld with Zegulf Landerman only.And that is because the prophecy was talking about

    ~Xyana~Breakfast was a smoothie, bread, homemade Avocado spread, and well-spiced chicken fillets. Amongst other things, living with Clifton for days has shown me how blessed the man's culinary skills are. Clifton can cook a storm and make it look like it's absolutely nothing. After breakfast, he placed me on the lounger at the short verandah attached to the sitting room. He knelt behind me and carefully massaged my shoulder to loosen up the knots I had there.I shut my eyes and I pray fervently that this version of my mate remains forever. When he's done, he joins me on the lounger which is big enough to hold at least three people.I cling onto him desperately and he moves his arms to sling them around my body, making me cross my legs around his waist."Love you, baby," he coos out, his chest heaving.I don't respond, but only because I'm still finding all of this, 'too good to be true.' Slowly, I trace my fingers through the outline of his d

    ~Xyana~The next morning, I woke up feeling like I had done too much hard work from yesterday.Last night must have really gotten to me because if anyone told me that I’d been hit by a truck, I would believe them. I shift onto my back and whimper from the ache between my legs. The type of ache that only happens from life-changing sex. My skin pebbles from the morning air, making my painful nipples even more tender. One by one, I peel my eyelids open. I reach for my bedside lamp and turn it on to inspect the room, but it's completely empty. There was no sign of Clifton. I notice four blue bruises that mars my thigh, and when I turn my leg, I spot a fifth. My heart slams against my ribcage. I leap out of the bed like a woman possessed and almost slip to the floor as I head straight for the bathroom. I flipped the light switch before I made it inside and stopped dead in my tracks in front of the bathroom mirror. Oh, goddess! Oh, goddess!!

    ~Xyana~"You don't have to be scared baby," Clifton says and steps towards me, but his demon remains standing.He looks like a dark smoke that formed into a human shape. I bet that if I stand up and attempt to touch him, I won't be able to grab onto a thing.Clifton blocks my view of the demon as his palm caresses my cheek. "It's still me." He tells me. "You wanted to see, I had to show you."'Goddess, fucking me.'I stare at him, short of words on what exactly to say. I try to tilt my head to the side to see the demon again but he prevents it by gently pressing on my neck."It's me." He whispers and places his forehead on mine. "Just me."He finally lifts his head, and our gaze meets. "What do you want?" He asks so softly that I feel my heart rumble from the tenderness of his voice.I lick my lips and think of what I really want. I'm sore, but of course, I'm still horny, and I want to experience what we just had in darkness. I want to exper
