Thane's POVCalantha was pregnant.I was shocked and surprised, how the hell did she get pregnant,?No this can't be, not when I decided to confess my feelings, not when I felt closer to Kaidaira, not when....."I'm pregnant alpha," Calantha repeated."I heard you the first time," I yelled."Alpha, the Luna is pregnant for your heir, we can't just toss her out, it's against tradition," one of the elders said."Just in case any of you forgot I have a heir, no one is going to change that," I muttered."What do have to say alpha? Will you rather take the child of a whore who might be a spy worse still an assassin or your Luna who has been with you," Calantha father said."She is not a whore," I mumbled the anger growing inside me "My apologies alpha, I'm just pointing out the obvious, you need to choose now," he glared at me, his words were not ordinary, they were threats."The alpha will do what he deems right," I muttered."So you're going to neglect me and follow that wench of a woma
Kaidaira's POV"Axel," I called out out as soon as I saw him, he stood with a boy beside him, the boy looked like Caspian.I looked closer and indeed it was Caspian."Caspian," I exclaimed as I ran towards him to grab him.I held his m in my hands, my body feeling the warmth of his soft little skin."I thought you were dead," I sobbed tears flowing freely from my eyes. I was too lost in the moment to notice that Axel was still standing there.Relief washed over me as I realized that Caspian was not dead, how did he survive? He definitely did t survive on his own."Axel, you're back," I said faking a smile."Yes I am, I need to stay here for a while to strengthen the bond between the pack," he replied reciprocating the smile."Ohh, I've missed you," I muttered. It was true, had missed him, the talks in the garden , the laughter, everything. "Same here," he replied.The moment was awkward, there was a lot o things to address, and I don't know what to handle first.Ask Axel about how he
Kaidaira's POVFirst I need to find my child, I need to know if Calantha got to hum and killed, and if she did I swear by the moon goddess I will hunt them and kill them even if it's the last thing I do.Oh moon goddess, grnat me this request let me rain hell upon the ones who has wronged me, upon the ones who betrayed, upon the ones who tokd me he loved but still ordered for my death.I broke down and sat by the ground my head covered with my hands, I cried.I bawled and cried my eyes out, I thought of the beautiful moments we spent together, I thought if the love we shared, everything was so perfect but I guess I was never meant to be happy in this life.Everyone I have ever held dearly to my heart betrayed me, the ones I hate trie to kill me. They're probably celebrating, happy that I was gone but guess what I'm not.I will make sure they pay for everything they did to me, I will make sure they all pay.But I need to find Caspian first then figure out a plan."Now is not the time f
Thane's POV Kaidaira's now awake, now I have to deal with Calantha.I didn't care what her father would do, I would take her out of the pack and throw her to the low lans where she belongs.She dared to lay her hands on Kaidaira let alone kill her, I will make her pay with her blood but first I have to tell it to the elders of the pack."Hey you," I said calling out to one of the guards standing outside."Your majesty," he replied."Get me the elders," I ordered before walking into the royal hall.I say on the throne tapping my hands on the table before me.After waiting for a while and thinking of ways to convey this to the elders, they walked in, Calantha's father behind all of them.He looked calm but he was evil, he was my father's beta till my father's death, he wasn't always like this but things changed."Your majesty," they all greeted. "You sent for us," Calantha's father said."Yes I did, there's an important issue to discuss," I replied to him being as polite as I could be
Kaidaira's POV My eyes fluttered open.Was I in the afteife? Calantha had successfully killed me just as she wanted. But this place wasn't feeling like it should feel.This is the afterlife, it's supposed to feel unreal but this, this feels too real, I could smell the earthly dust, I could hear my wolf rumbling inside of me.She's back, my wolf is back!This place, it looks nothing like the afterlife, my senses were not fully awake, my vision was still blurred, I could not make full sense of my energy."Where the hell am I?" I mumbled."You're in the healer's sanctuary," I heard a voice saying."The what? Aren't I supposed to be dead?" I asked panicking."You're not dead, you came back to life," the voice said. The voice was calm and composed so I guessed it was the healer himself.Slowly my eyes began to open fully, I could make sense of the where I was.It was white with a lot of beds, the place smelled like herbs and it felt mystical, indeed I was at the sanctuary.I looked at my
Thane's POV "There's a way," the healer's words brought hope into my heart.Whatever the way, whatever the cost I was ready to do it."What is it?" I asked my voice sounding a bit impatient."The way of the goddess," he replied, his words coated in wisdom."The way of goddess?" I asked in confusion that was the first time I heard about something like that.The healer sighed deeply, his gaze heavy with something I couldn’t quite place; doubt, hesitation, or perhaps fear."The way of the goddess is an ancient ritual," he explained, stepping closer to Kaidaira’s still body. "It is not for the faint of heart, nor is it guaranteed to succeed."I clenched my fists, my heart hammering. "Tell me what I have to do."The healer hesitated. "The ritual calls upon the Goddess of the Moon, it demands a sacrifice in exchange for life. The stronger the bond between the living and the dead, the higher the chance of success. But Thane…" His gaze met mine, his voice lowering. "The price could be steep.
