Daisy Attending this joint party is something I never thought I'd be able to do. Aiden didn't even attend last year's party because of how anxious I got at the idea. How could I face Tristian when I wasn't strong enough? How could I stomach facing my former pack and family? Now though? I feel ready. Nothing can stop me now, especially with Aiden by my side. I never knew I could love someone as much as I love him and yet here I am. "Are you all ready, love?" Aiden asks leaning against the door frame as I finish up my makeup. After using our wolf forms to travel fast, we needed to get ready once we arrived. "D*mn... you're gorgeous." He looks me over. "I almost don't want anyone to see you." I giggle and turn to face him. "You're not so bad yourself." Aiden always looks good in anything he wears but tonight he had on a nice dress shirt and some dark leather pants. "If I didn't know any better I'd say you're wanting to show off." As I stop in front of him, Aiden chuckles and takes m
Daisy "Hello, Tristian," I say in a dismissive tone making his hazel eyes flash. They always did when I disrespected him in the past. "It's laughable to think you can say I'm your mate when you were the one who rejected me first." Tristian growls under his breath. "That was a mistake that I regret every day. Had I met your wolf beforehand I..." This makes me laugh. How pathetic can someone be? And in front of his chosen mate too! He has no morals at this point. "A mistake?!" Dahlia chimes in her voice rather shrill. Aiden winces and rubs his ear. "Had you met Naomi before?! What the hell are you talking about?! You chose me before her!" She stomps her foot and I'm reminded of how she used to do that as a child. Spoiled Dahlia always getting her way. She'd stomp her foot and point at me using that same shrill tone. In the end, she'd be beaming proudly while I'd be holding my cheek from a harsh slap. Everything had to be her way. Reality isn't like our childhood though so her being
Dahlia This night couldn't get any worse than it already is. Why is Daisy here? Why isn't that bitch dead already?! Not only that but she's the Luna of the mysterious Crimson Moon pack. The true wolves of the night? How? She's nothing more than a weak slut! It must all come from Naomi! But she already turned her back on me so I can't trust her either! What hurts the most is that Tristian is trying to suck up to her. He even stabbed me in the heart once again blaming me for losing our pup. I fight tears and can only watch numbly from the sidelines. I'll kick the man in the balls for all this later when we go home! "Baby, please." My heart sinks at his soft tone. When was the last time I heard Tristian sound like this? And why does it have to be towards Daisy instead of me? "I made a mistake and I'm sorry so please... I want you back..." Another stab to my heart. However, I watch in surprise as my useless twin throws Tristian over her shoulder and onto the ground. The loud thud se
Aiden I have a range of emotions going through me right now. From joy to panic to worry... then back to joy again, everything I'm feeling overwhelms me. I'm overjoyed by the fact I'm having not only one pup but twins! I could howl loudly at the moon I'm so excited! I'm also worried though. Losing Rosie in that way made me so nervous around Daisy during her first pregnancy. I didn't want to lose my second chance the same way I lost my first. Everything turned out well in the end. No complications and no reason to worry in the future. I even love Skylar as my pup all because he's Daisy's. I'm also panicked too. It doesn't make any sense logically but I fear deep down that I'll be a terrible father to my blood. Daisy will talk me down later but for now, it's all that I can think of. Is this something all expected parents go through? How many fears will run through my mind before they're born? What about after? I set Daisy down and hold her close. "You have no idea how happy I am," I
~Some Time Earlier~ Skylar Life can't be any better for me! Dad is an amazing leader and Alpha and Mom is a kind yet firm Luna! Maybe a little too firm at times but still! Mom is the best! So is everyone else too! Being the son of the leaders has many perks that I take full advantage of. Peter is a great godfather to me. He lets me ride on his shoulders whether in his human or wolf form. Having the Beta as an uncle figure is awesome! He has been distant lately but still always makes time for me when my parents are busy. He always stares off into space but I can't ask why because he never tells me! 'It's something only I can understand? How rude! Then there's Sammy! He's always spending time with me and finding nice ways to keep me entertained! Everyone says he loves Mom but I think he's just great friends with her. He's also great with Ebony! Speaking of which, Ebony is awesome! She's a little older than me but also rather shy. One day when I'm the Alpha instead of Dad, I'm going
Daisy "She took Sky away!" Ebony's words cut through me. Somebody kidnapped my pup. They attacked one of my pack members and took Skylar away from me. A wave of emotions run through me. First, I'm in shock and denial. How could it be true? Sky is safe away from the party with a strong warrior and former rouge in Zoey. No way anyone could get through her! Plus many others would be around too! If anything happened, someone would have stopped it! Then, I feel like crying. What if this wolf plans on harming Sky? Then what can I do? Thinking of someone torturing and hurting my son makes my heart ache and my body so cold. Why am I being punished? Sky is innocent so why?! And finally, I land on rage. I would do anything for my pup even if it means killing his captor. My blood boils and I clench my fists. Whoever took my son is going to pay for this. No one will be able to stop me either! I will get my son back! Aiden snarls next to me and I hear the little pup cry even harder. This snap
Ebony Seeing Mama like this isn't something I ever thought I'd see. Her usual dark coat looks sticky and matted, her paws are limp and dirty, and her flank is moving up and down rapidly. She hardly looks like Mama now and her scent is masked by blood and medical supplies. Mama always keeps herself groomed and proper. She's one of my calming anchors in times of need. She's serious a lot but never misses the chance to smile and take care of me. Now sitting by her while she lays limply in a bed not her own, Mama doesn't seem like Mama anymore. We can't go home right now so we're staying in the Royal pack's mansion. It would be great if it wasn't for what happened to Mama and Sky. Suddenly tired and nervous, I look down at my lap. Doctor Olivia doesn't know when Mama is going to wake up so all the questions everyone wanted to ask her came onto me. So many at once to the point that my ears start to ring now just thinking about it. "What happened?" "Who attacked you guys?" "Was there m
Tristian I can't believe she already has a child on top of being pregnant again! I snarl to myself but shake it off. Perhaps if I find the mutt myself, then Daisy will look my way and be grateful. However, when I suggested it, Daisy only looked at me as if I had two heads and I was nasty. "You don't have to do that. We have plenty of wolves out there especially with Royal pack backing us. Save your energy... I don't want your help specifically." With that, she walked away leaving me staring at her back. I was livid but I did get a good look at her swaying hips and slender frame. Where had she been hiding that back when she was in my pack? I did catch a glimpse of it during that party years ago but she was so much hotter now. Her long silver hair that glowed in the moonlight, her vibrant purple eyes that reflected the stars, her hourglass figure with her plump breasts... everything about her was just so delicious. She even has muscle now showing that she is a strong warrior as we
SamuelMy morning routine hasn't changed much over the years. I still take my early morning jog to stay fit and strong. The only difference now is that I have two people who join me rather than being alone. I don't have a say in this arrangement, but I wouldn't have it any other way."Can't catch me, Daddy!" Rose squeaks and races off, her long carrot-top hair very noticeable in the spring green forest. Now six years old, she's becoming her own little person. I see more of her father in her every day, which I don't mind at all."Don't go too far ahead of us, Rose!" I call after her and shake my head. The man next to me chuckles, and I scowl at him. "Even if these are our woods, she can still get into trouble," I mutter. She's my pup, after all, so I'm always worried about her."She'll be fine. Don't sweat over it so much, Samuel. I'll just go and get her before she gets too far away," Peter shrugs. "I'll never let anything happen to our pup. You know me better than that."I never conf
LeahAs we kiss and discard more clothes between us, I continue to grow more and more nervous. Compared to the girls Tristian had already been with, where did I stand in his eyes? That hot and heavy look on his face answers my question but I still am very shy."Don't try and cover yourself," Tristian says making me blush. I didn't even realize I was doing such a thing. "You're beautiful, Leah. Never hide yourself from me." He kisses me again while his hands explore all over me.I giggle as I'm rather ticklish and smile shyly. "I-I'm not so sure about that but... thank you for the compliment," I murmur and kiss him back. I take this time to explore him as well.I feel his deep scars but I also feel his hard, rippling muscles. Being underneath him like this makes me realize how small I am... and how big something else will be. My face turns bright red at the thought."What's wrong?" Tristian tilts his head before grinning. "Ohh... you're having naughty thoughts now aren't you?" He kisse
LeahSeveral months have passed since we brought Tristian back to Royal Pack. Since then, he's been going through a harsh hazing but otherwise seems in high spirits. Going from Alpha to Omega didn't drag him down too much—he seems to have something to look forward to. The fact that it's me always makes me blush.The more I watch Tristian, the prouder I am to have him as my mate. He never complains about how he's been treated and just does his work. Of course, it’s mostly cleaning and carrying things around. He’s hopeless at cooking—no need to poison anyone with that!I giggle at the thought, though my stomach twists with anxiety. I have something I need to tell him, something very important, but every time I try, I feel like I’m going to faint or my heart will explode.You'll do fine, Leah, Eden tells me. I sense her wagging her tail with excitement. I have a feeling you’ll be very warm and comfortable tonight as well. She’s teasing me, yet she’s just as anxious as I am.“We both will
TristianThe first thing I notice when I wake up is the smell of bitter herbs and a familiar room. I sit up quickly and immediately regret it as a massive dizzy spell hits me. I groan and force myself not to throw up. Once again, I find myself in the Royal Pack's healer home... Leah’s home.“Oh, it looks like you’re finally awake,” a familiar voice says, and my heart sinks. I look up and see Xander leaning against the wall.“You were in rough shape, though, so perhaps it’s to be expected. You’ve only been gone a couple of weeks, and you’re already in such a state… You must have more enemies than I expected.”I grimace and lower my head. “I only met one enemy so far. She wanted me to suffer, so… I doubt she would have killed me.” I clench my fists. “At least... not for a long while, anyway.”Xander nods and tilts his head. “Carmen told me it was someone Leah called Penny. Can I assume it's your old friend Penelope?” He chuckles when I look at him in surprise. “I keep up with the other
TristianMany questions are racing through my mind especially with Leah being here right now and even saying she isn't here to reject me. I want nothing more than to hold her close and continue to redeem myself to be the mate she deserves.Maybe everything will work out in the end. If Leah accepts me, then maybe I'll have a clean slate to work with. Of course, I don't expect us to jump into being mates. A trial period will be needed so she knows she can trust me. I also need to know I can trust myself.As I think more about it, I picture my life with Leah. I won't be an Alpha anymore... yet that doesn't bother me at all. Instead, I see myself helping her mix up herbs for her patients and even doing small chores around the pack.In a way, it's a relief not to have all that pressure anymore. I won't have a pack to think for nor be responsible for everyone as a whole. I'll be part of a pack at least and won't go insane. I'll have a home, a beautiful mate, and a bright future. Even if my
Leah“Your mate?” Penny’s voice yanks me back to the present. She bursts out laughing so hard that tears spring to her eyes. Wiping them away, she grins. “Oh, you poor little fawn... to think the Moon Goddess hates you so much she’d give you such a useless piece of trash for a mate! I feel so sorry for you.”I flinch but take a deep breath. This isn’t the kind teenager who once comforted me. No—this is a rogue starving for revenge. A pack wolf driven to madness by years of exile. The Penny I knew is long gone.“What are you going to do? Let the Beta wolf loose on me so you can save him?” Penny smirks darkly, her eyes flashing with wild fury. “Over my dead body... you’ll never save that bastard.”In a flash, she lunges, but Carmen meets her halfway.“Go assess the damage! I’ll hold her off!” Carmen shouts, already engaged with Penny.I freeze—but only for a moment. Then I run into the cave, grimacing at the sharp, metallic scent of blood… Tristian’s blood.The farther I go, the stronge
Leah "So Tristian is close by?" Carmen asks again as we walk through the forest. "Eden can dream-walk in his dreams because he's nearby, right?" I sigh patiently, though I'm more annoyed than anything. I've grown used to acting this way since I’m the pack healer, but sometimes I have to explain things multiple times like I'm speaking to a pup. "Yes, that's correct," I say, glancing around. "She's with Silas right now tending to his wounds, so we need to get to Tristian soon." My stomach twists with anxiety. "It's not good... that's all she would tell me." Carmen's sympathetic gaze only makes me more antsy. I don't need that right now—I need her focused and determined to get this done. "It's alright, Leah. I have your back, no matter what. If I didn’t, I wouldn’t be on this journey with you," she says, as if it’s the most obvious thing in the world. Maybe it should be, but I can't help the nerves. "I know. I just..." I swallow hard and keep walking. I don’t know what to say—espec
Silas The wild winds of the rogue forest lure me in. I hear the call and can't ignore it. With each step, sharp jolts of pain run through my paws, up my legs, and deep inside my head—yet I keep running. The deeper I go, the less it hurts. Who wouldn't listen? Who wouldn't seize the chance to escape the pain? 'Silas... stop running!' A faint yet familiar voice calls after me. Fearing more vengeful wolves, I speed up even as the pain blinds me. Even though it's fading, it's still excruciating. 'Silas!' The voice calls again, but I don't look back. However, it's only getting louder, fast approaching. Feeling cornered, I spin around and snarl. She stands before me, panting faintly. 'Silas...' she lowers her head and wags her tail gently. As she slowly approaches, I growl, baring my teeth. If I have to, I will use them! However, she stops right in front of me and tilts her head to the side. 'It's okay... you're safe with me. Let me help you... just like before.' Her scent hits me, and
Tristian I stir and let out a small whine suddenly aware of all the pain I'm in. My head is pounding painfully and my flank burns wet with something. As I lift my head to look, wet and dried blood cakes my fur. What's going on? What happened? "Oh, so you're finally awake, Trisy." I tense hearing Penny's voice and snap my head over towards the sound. Penny sits in the shadows her green eyes gleaming wildly. "It's about time... of course, pack wolves are such whiny weaklings after all." She purrs softly. 'Penelope...' I start but Penny only smiles slowly and stands up. She stalks towards me as if I'm nothing more than a piece of prey. 'I'm no longer a pack wolf... I...' Penny stops in front of me and giggles softly. "You honestly don't think I know what's been going on?" She asks innocently and kneels to my level. "You're nothing more than a useless rogue. The lowest of the low, even worse than the Omegas you loved to insult with your bratty love interest. You need to learn your pla
