DEXTER'S POVMy phone was on the table, and I kept staring at the blank screen, not daring to move my eyes away from it. I was expecting a call from Daisy any time soon. I knew that as long as I told her the truth, she would come back to her senses and she would come crawling back to me, begging for my help and for me to take her back as my Luna. All the dreams that I had been having were just proof that I had been right about that bastard Zordon all along. He was as evil as they come. Daisy's life was in danger as long as she was in that place, and my dreams were her way of reaching out to me for help. I smiled as I thought about it. Although she was now someone else's mate, we had a bond no one else could ever come between. That was why she was reaching out to me through my dreams, right? That was the only logical explanation I could think of.My eyes never left the blank screen of my phone as I continued to wait for her call. She should have got my letter by now, and if Daisy
ZORDON'S POV"What the fuck is this?” I shouted as I read the headlines in the paper. “I thought I made it clear that I didn't want anyone to know about this. Why has it gained the media’s attention? I need this to disappear by the end of the day! I cannot bear to see such intimate information about me and my wife in the public like this!" I shoved the paper into my Gamma’s hands before he scurried away so he could get on this. Isla had already gone to the TV and Radio stations to pay them off so they didn’t run the story. As I waited outside Daisy's hospital room, I caught the sound of her yelling and making a scene. I truly wanted to go in there and comfort her, but I really didn't know how I was supposed to do that. Mainly because I held onto my anger for her.I understood deep down that she wasn't to blame for none of this, yet the idea of her still communicating with Dexter filled me with rage and jealousy. I didn't like the idea of her conversing with that motherfucker. I de
DEXTER'S POV"Yes Dexter. I have seen the morning papers," Xavier answered. His voice was filled with excitement, and I could tell that he was proud of whatever he had done. "So, were you impressed?" "With what?" I asked with a raised eyebrow. What the hell did he do?I had a bad feeling about this. "So you saw what happened to Daisy then?" Xavier asked me, still sounding excited. "I read she suffered a miscarriage, but what does it have to do with — wait, don't tell me that you are the one behind this?" My face went pale as I made the connection. The newspaper that Kendra had given me did not mention how Daisy lost the baby. Clearly, it had something to do with Xavier! "Of course. You should be happy that I did this for you. Don't tell me that you were planning to let her have the cub of another man? If Zordon and Daisy had a child together, then their bond would be even stronger, and it would be impossible for you to come in between them. You should really thank me for all tha
DAISY'S POVI looked at Zordon expectantly, but the expectation died when he didn't say anything even after a few seconds. I snorted in disbelief. "You didn't find them, did you? It seems like finding the person responsible for our baby's death isn't on your radar. I thought you were the powerful Alpha Zordon. The ruthless leader who could do anything, so why is it so hard for you to do this one thing?!" I shouted. Going through so many breakdowns in one day made me not give a damn about my appearance anymore. My main goal was to find the person who killed my child, but the one person who I was seeking help from wasn't willing to assist me.“I've got Isla handling this, and if someone really did this to you, I promise they'll regret it. Just believe that my beta won’t stop until she catches them,” he stated calmly. It bugged me that he was still so relaxed with everything that was going on. It made me feel as if I were the only one who was mourning the death of our baby. As if it
ZORDON'S POV"What's the latest?" I asked Isla as we walked into the palace together. "Did you find out anything new?"She shook her head, and I could tell that she was not putting in enough effort into this. She was trying to shift focus to another topic. "Isla, didn't we talk about this? Daisy will never be safe as long as the person who did this to her is still walking free. We need to find them and make them pay as soon as possible. Do you even understand the seriousness of this?" I asked her, a bit upset. "Wait! Are you saying you believe her now about being pushed?""I don't know, maybe," I sighed. "There is something I haven't told anybody. I can read her thoughts.""You've marked her, of course you can.""No! This is different. I can also feel her emotions and see things she has seen, but ever since her fall and her hitting her head, it's like the lights are off, and I can't see through her memories. Maybe when she gets better, I will be able to see the face of the person wh
DAISY'S POV"What do you mean, you're going to war?" I asked, looking from Zordon to Isla. I had this heavy feeling in my heart, like something bad was about to happen. Why did everything had to be solved with a war?Isla had a Stoic and distant look on her face, and I could not help but recall the words that she had said to me the other day. How dare she told me to leave this pack and never come back? Who did she think she is? I wanted to tell Zordon about her behaviour, but everytime we were in a room together, he picked an argument with me, asking me things like if I missed Dexter’s lips and tongue. His possessiveness was getting to my head. My skin crawled as I felt the hostility coming from Isla, and it really unsettled me. Why did she hate me so much? Was it because I was not born of this pack? "We have a pact with the Baywatch Pack to assist each other if one of us are ever in trouble. Since they are under attack, we need to be there to help them," Zordon explained to me.
DEXTER'S POVStepping out of my bedroom all dressed up, I ran into Kendra, who had a suspicious look on her face. "You are all dressed up, where are you going?" She asked me, still eyeing me suspiciously. "I don't think I need to tell you where I am going," I snapped at her. "Now move outta my fucking way. I don't wanna see your stinking face right now." Kendra gasped and then sighed. I could not help but notice the eye bags on her face. I snorted. It had only been a few months, and yet, she looked as if she had aged ten years. While comparing Kendra to Daisy in my mind, I realized Daisy had never looked like this, regardless of what she was going through. She had always managed to look so beautiful, and it wasn't something that Kendra could ever replicate. She was just not built to be a wife and a Luna. She did play the side chick role pretty well, though. "Dexter, aren't you tired of this? Do you really want to keep treating me like this? I am your Luna, for crying out loud!
DAISY'S POV"Can I leave now Luna?" Isla bowed, mocking my status. "I have a fight to go win.""Mock me all you want, but I am the Luna and you will always be just the beta," I let out. Isla hissed, and then she turned on her heels and stormed out. Bitch! I thought, as anger flooded my veins. I stayed in the office for a little while, my mind, and body refusing to let me move to the gates and watch Zordon take off without me. I was terrified of losing him, and that fear was causing my body to be very jittery. I decided to go get dressed for bed. I thought that if I slept, then by the time I woke up in the morning, Zordon would have returned home safe and sound. The moment my head hit the pillow, my brain began to swim with dangerous scenarios. Images of Zordon's decapitated head were flashing through my mind. I realized I couldn't sleep.My wolf was a little more active than usual. If only I could shift, I would go for a run in wolf form. Zordon promised to have a doctor review me

DAISY'S POVThe house was finally still.Zion was fast asleep in his own bed, curled up with his stuffed wolf tucked beneath one arm. He'd insisted he wasn't tired, then passed out mid-sentence while telling me his version of a bedtime story, which, naturally, included dragons, glowing swords, and a lot of heroic howling.Zahra, our six-month-old daughter, was tucked into her crib in the nursery. The faint sound of her gentle breaths echoed through the baby monitor beside the bed. She'd been fussy earlier, but a warm bottle and a lullaby had done the trick. Now her tiny hands rested over her heart, lips parted in a peaceful dream.For the first time in days, everything was quiet.And for the first time in weeks, we were alone.I stood at the foot of our bed wearing one of Zordon's oversized t-shirts. I had unbuttoned it just enough to tease. My body still hadn't completely returned to its pre-baby shape, not that I had I tummy, I was way curvier than I was before I got pregnant. The w
ZORDON'S POVZion was supposed to be napping.Instead, he was orchestrating what I could only describe as a chicken rebellion, armed with a stick, a feather, and a very serious scowl.I stood on the porch, arms folded, watching as my son attempted to "train" the chicks like miniature soldiers. They, in turn, had formed a sort of panicked flock and were darting around in circles while he shouted instructions that made no sense whatsoever."Line up, soldiers!" he barked, tripping over his own feet and landing in the mud with a giggle.Daisy gave her running after him and came to stand behind me, she sighed lovingly. "You should probably stop him before he declares war on the garden."I didn't move. "He needs to learn about leadership.""Zordon."I glanced at her over my shoulder. She was glowing, in that maddeningly beautiful way she always did when she was pregnant. Her hair was braided back from her face, her dress loose and light, and one hand was settled protectively over her belly.
DAISY'S POVThree Years LaterZion was barefoot again.I could hear his laughter before I saw him, high and wild, the kind that only belonged to children who had never known fear. His little legs darted through the tall grass like he belonged to it. Thick, dark curls tangled in the wind, dirt streaked across his cheeks, and a dandelion stem stuck behind one ear."Zion!" I called, not really trying to stop him.He spun once, arms flung wide like wings, before he took off running again this time toward the coop. A dozen chicks scattered in every direction, their little peeps rising in alarm.Zordon stood on the porch, arms crossed over his chest, a familiar scowl tugging at his mouth. "That boy is menace to our livestock."I stepped up beside him, one hand resting on the curve of my belly, the other slipping into his. "They adore him.""They fear him.""They follow him," I said, leaning my head against his shoulder. "There's a difference."Zordon snorted but didn't argue. Instead, he ki
DAISY'S POVA few nights later, the palace felt almost too quiet.Just the hush that comes when everyone else has gone to sleep, and you're left alone with your thoughts.Zordon lay beside me, already half-asleep. One arm was draped across me and our son, the weight of his hand warm and steady. He always slept that way now. Like he thought he could protect the baby even in dreams.I wasn't tired. Or maybe I was, but the exhaustion felt too big to settle. Like my body didn't know how to turn off yet. My brain kept replaying the day on a loop, our vows, the sound of the crowd, the gold circlet still pressing faintly into my forehead like it had left a mark.A crown. A child. A future I could barely begin to understand.Eventually, I drifted off. Not gradually. It was more like falling, like one blink and the world shifted beneath me.******I was standing in a field I'd never seen before.Moonlight poured from the sky like rain, so bright and clean it made everything shimmer. The grass
DAISY'S POVThe forest had changed since the war, but only just.New green pushed up through old ash. Flowers bloomed where fire once scorched the earth. Trees whispered again, not in warning, just in welcome.Zordon and I walked hand in hand along the narrow path, the one we'd taken long ago when everything between us had been tension and doubt. Back then, I wasn't sure I believed in fate. I wasn't sure I believed in us.Now?His hand was warm in mine, steady and strong. My feet moved slower than they used to thanks to the weight I carried, but I didn't mind. The baby kicked every so often, reminding me that time was short. That soon, we'd be three."You're quiet," Zordon said softly, brushing a low-hanging branch out of my way."I'm thinking.""Dangerous."I gave him a sideways look, but I smiled. "What will we name him?"He paused. "I don't know. I thought you should do the honors, since you are the one who will birth him.""I see," I said, exhaling.The wind stirred through the le
DAISY'S POVThree days after Zordon proposed, I stood at the edge of Mooncliff Summit, dressed in white and shaking in my boots.Well, technically I was barefoot. The seamstress had tried heels, but I had nearly broken my ankle so we settled on soft, woven sandals that I'd kicked off somewhere near the top of the cliff. My feet pressed into the warm stone now, grounding me in a way nothing else could.I kept my hands over my belly, partly out of instinct, partly because it helped me breathe. The baby was quiet this morning. Still and peaceful. Maybe he sensed the magnitude of today. Maybe he was waiting, just like the rest of the world.Thousands had gathered below. Wolves from every surviving pack. Elders. Witches. Seers. Even some humans who knew of our existence. People who had once hated each other now stood side by side. I wasn't sure if it was unity or just exhaustion, but either way, they came.They came to see us.To see me.I still couldn't wrap my head around it.Zordon stoo
DAISY'S POVThe morning after Luna Evelyn's visit arrived with golden sunlight and the smell of cinnamon drifting through the air.Zordon had already left the bed by the time I woke up. I stretched, my hand resting lightly on the curve of my belly. A quiet flutter reminded me that our little one was growing stronger every day.Slipping on a robe, I padded into the sunroom and stopped in my tracks.Zordon was there and he was shirtless, barefoot, and standing over a small table set for two on the balcony. Steam curled from two mugs. Plates of fruit, eggs, fresh bread, and that cinnamon I'd smelled were perfectly arranged. Wildflowers in a simple jar sat in the center."You cooked?" I asked, blinking in surprise.He shrugged. "I bribed someone to help. But I did stir the eggs."I laughed and moved toward him, kissing his cheek before sitting down.We ate slowly, talking about everything and nothing. For a while, it was just us again. No Luna Evelyn. No war. No titles."Come take a walk
DAISY'S POVTwo months had passed since the war ended, yet the air still carried the scent of smoke and death.We had won. The bloodshed was over. But peace wasn't as quiet as I thought it would be. It pulsed beneath the surface like the earth was still bracing for another storm.Dexter's trial had finally ended. He sat alone in the depths of Pine Hollow, sealed away in a cell built for the worst of our kind. Silver-lined walls, enchanted locks, constant guard rotations. But the Council and the Pinewood people had chosen something far worse than death for him.He had been stripped of his wolf.The bond to the moon, the magic in his blood, the power that once made him Alpha, it was all gone. Just like that. No more shifting. No more heightened senses. No more pack. They carved the beast out of him and left only a man behind.And his sentence? To live as the man he truly was. Weak and cruel and hollow. Then I topped off his sentence by sending him to work in the very barracks he once se
