Nolan’s POV

I watched Talia walk away. I rubbed a hand over my face. I should go back to my room and take more of the herbs. Maybe they could dull the noise in my head.

'That won’t fix anything,' my wolf growled. 'You drove her away, and now you’re going to reject her? If you do, I’ll never forgive you.'

“I had to,” I muttered. “It’s better this way.”

'Better for whom? You or her?' my wolf growled.

I didn’t answer.

Even now, I could still feel the faint pulse of our bond. We were her second mat

    Talia’s POVMy wolf woke me close to noon.I opened my eyes and stared at the ceiling before the time registered. The light coming through the curtains was too bright for morning. I sat up and looked at the other side of the bed.‘Why did you wait so long to wake me?’ I asked.‘Because you needed more rest,’ my wolf replied. ‘Now, let’s get up and find our mate.’I could not remember the last time I had slept this long. My body clearly needed it more than I had thought. I still felt tired but not as much as before.I got up, washed, and dressed before heading down to the dining room.Breakfast had been kept warm for me. I sat down and placed a roll on my plate. I had taken only a few bites when Maggie walked in, and she was grinning from ear to ear.“You look like you’re having a good day,” I said as I took another bite of my roll."Luna," she chirped. "Alpha Nolan is waiting for you in the central garden. He said to come whenever you’re ready."I set the bread down. "Did something ha

    Nolan’s POVBack in our room, Talia refused to rest.The moment we entered, she removed her coat and sat on the edge of the bed without lying down. Her eyes stayed fixed on the door as if she expected someone to walk through it at any moment."You should try to get some sleep," I said."I will after we hear from Walden," she replied."You've been on your feet since this morning.""Two supply depots burned down, Nolan. I'm not going to sleep while we're still waiting to find out what happened."There was no reasonable argument to make against that. I sat beside her and waited with her instead.We sat in silence for a long time. The exhaustion showed in her posture. Her shoulders were tense, her jaw set, and her eyes had lost some of their usual sharpness. She was pushing through it rather than admitting to it.‘Don’t try to get her to lie down again,’ my wolf warned. ‘That will only make her angry.’‘I wasn’t going to. She had already made her position clear, and pressing the point wou

  • Second Chance for the Barren Luna   CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED & THIRTY TWO

    Nolan’s POVWhen Talia and I arrived at the border, two of the three supply depots had already burned down. The ground around the depots was blackened and wet from the effort to put the fires out. Smoke still clung to the air in thin streaks, and the smell of burned grain and scorched wood was strong.“This is awful. Who would have done this?” Talia muttered as she surveyed the damage.Warriors moved through the burnt remains. They stepped over broken beams and collapsed shelving while they checked for anything that could still be salvaged. The third depot remained standing, but guards had formed a tight perimeter around it.“Alpha,” Walden said as he approached us. There were ash smudges on his face and armor. “We put the fire out as fast as we could.”“Did you catch who started it?” I asked.Waldon frowned and said, “No. Whoever did it used the chaos to put out the fire as a means to escape.”“Start an immediate investigation,” I ordered. “Right now.”“Yes, Alpha.”I turned to Maggi

    Talia’s POVDella walked beside me along the unfinished stretch of wall. Her expression remained serious. “Are you sure?”“I could just be overreacting,” I replied."When you expelled Jason and Michael from Shadowclaw, did you send Henry to track them?" Della asked.I shook my head. "No. I strengthened the defenses and banned their return.”"That's it?" Della stopped walking. "You didn't think you had to have someone watching them?""At the time, I believed removing them was enough," I explained. "I didn't think they would be stupid enough to come back."Della looked at me like she wanted to say more but was choosing her words carefully. "What if Jason found another way in, like the way Viki did,” Della suggested. “He’s not the kind of a man to just give up, especially with Michael breathing down his neck.“No, this is different,” I explained. “Walden is very thorough. He knows every warrior's background. Jason couldn't have walked in without someone recognizing him."“And yet, Viki w

    Talia’s POVDays went by and I adjusted to my new normal. After breakfast with Nolan that morning, he would go to the training grounds to train the warriors, and Della, Marco, and I went to the border to check the progress of the wall.It had been a week since construction started, and we were making good progress. The wall was not finished, but it was already impossible to miss. The wall was much higher than it was only a few days ago.Walden was observing the construction. Warriors moved in organized lines as they hauled supplies from trucks and stacked materials where they were needed. Villagers carried lighter loads and worked in smaller groups. When Walden noticed us, he began walking towards us.“Good morning, Luna,” Walden greeted respectfully. “Beta Marco. Beta Della.”“Good morning, Walden,” I replied.“Checking progress, again?” Walden asked.Marco nodded to him. “Yes, we want to make sure you’re fully supported out here.”“How are the warrior shifts going?” I asked. Half of

    Talia’s POVMaggie’s eyes widened before she began blushing. She looked away and said, “I wouldn’t call him my mate just yet.”“I knew it!” Della exclaimed. “So, that’s why you were late.”Maggie nodded as she nervously twisted her fingers in front of her. “Yes, but I promise it won’t happen again.”“We don’t care about all that. Who is he?” Della said.“What is his name? What is his rank?” I asked.Della leaned forward slightly. “Bring him over. We want to see the man that has captured your heart.” I nudged Della in the side for being sarcastic.Maggie’s cheeks flushed deeper. “He’s just an ordinary warrior. He is busy working on the wall right now.”“That’s fine,” Della replied. “We just want to see him.”“I’m not…I’m not ready to introduce him,” Maggie said quickly. “Maybe once the wall has been built.”I studied her expression. She looked nervous but happy. This was not my reaction when I met my fated mate.“Is he your fated mate?” I asked.Maggie shook her head and said, “No.”“W
