The Captive Luna 10.
Natalia had curled up in a dark and dirty cell, shivering. Feeling cold and sore, but she was glad she was alive. Even though Vitale had forbid her from ever coming back, vowing to end her life if she ever appeared before him again, he had spared her life and locked her up instead. He had made it clear he never wanted to see her again, but he didn't kill her. For now. She still had a chance. To ask him to help her get back her kids. Only he could do that. Even if he demanded for her freedom at the end, it was a price she was willing to pay. All she had to do was play the right card.She had been lying on the dirty ground for hours, waiting for someone to come and see her. She hoped it would be Vitale, but she knew it was unlikely. He probably didn't want to see her face or hear her voice. He probably wanted to forget that she ever existed. Laying on the thin mattress and trying to conserve what little warmth her body produced, Natalia had tuned all the sounds around her until she he

Vitale couldn't sleep. He tossed and turned in his bed, his mind racing with thoughts of Natalia. How could she do this to him? How could she betray him five years ago, and then show up in his life again, acting as if nothing had happened? How could she have the nerve to look at him with that familiar warmth in her eyes?He hated her. He hated her for breaking his heart, for making him doubt himself, for ruining his trust in women. He hated her for being so beautiful, so smart, so brave. He hated her for making him feel things he didn't want to feel, things he had buried deep inside him."Fuck.." He muttered, getting up from his bed and put on his clothes. He needed to see her. He needed to confront her. He needed to make her pay for what she had done to him. He needed to show her who was in charge, who had the power, who had the upper hand.In the dead of the night, Vitale walked out of his room and headed to the basement, where he had locked her up in a cell. Reaching the cell, he o

Natalia felt a jolt of electricity run through her body as she touched Alessio’s hand. She gasped and jerked back, staring at him with wide eyes.“What…what was that?” She stammered, her voice trembling.Alessio looked at her with the same shock and confusion, as well as something else. Something she recognized all too well. Recognition. Attraction. Desire.He opened his mouth to say something, but no words came out. He couldn’t believe what was happening. He couldn’t believe what it meant. He found his mate. And it was Natalia.Natalia felt a surge of panic and fear wash over her. She wanted to run away, to hide, to deny the truth. She didn’t want this. She didn’t want him.“No…no, this can’t be happening.” She whispered, shaking her head.The thought of finding a second chance mate had crossed her mind some years back. But when she remembered how V broke her heart and shattered her dreams. How he rejected her as his mate and threatened to kill and turned her into a rogue, pregnant w

Alessio felt a jolt of pain and fear in his chest. He couldn’t believe what V was asking him. He couldn’t believe what V was demanding him. He couldn’t believe what V was taking away from him.His mate, his other half, his soulmate.He wanted to protest, to argue, to refuse. He wanted to tell V that he couldn’t do that, that he wouldn’t do that, that he shouldn’t do that.He wanted to tell V that he loved Natalia, that he needed Natalia, that he wanted Natalia.He wanted to tell V that Natalia was his second chance mate, that the moon goddess gave her to him, and him to her. That they didn’t choose this, they didn’t plan this, they didn’t expect this. That it just happened."I promise..." Alessio spoke through gritted teeth. It was the only way to save her from Vitale's wrath. But that didn't mean he'd keep his words. No, Natalia is his, and he'd make sure it became that way.With that sorted, V asked for Natalia to be brought to his office. He wanted to question her about why she cam

Al ran through the forest, his heart pounding in his chest. He had just overheard a shocking news from Natalia. She had kids. Three of them. Vitale might not know the kids were his, but Alessio does.He had loved her, he had wanted to make her his mate, but she had disappeared when V rejected her, breaking his heart. He had never forgiven himself for losing her, and he had never stopped loving her.He loved her even more now that she was back, when he found out she was his true mate. He felt the bond between them, the pull that he couldn't resist. He hated himself for wanting her, for needing her, for feeling jealous of Vitale. He hated Vitale too, for taking Natalia away from him, for having kids with her, for being the father of her children instead of him.He had hated them all, including himself, and he wanted to make them pay. He wanted to ruin their happiness, to destroy their family, to take away what they loved the most. But now she's back, he had to prevent them from finding

It was the next day after Natalia had arrived. Kat knew she was taking a huge risk by sneaking out of the pack house while Vitale was busy with his alpha duties. She had to see Maddox, the mad doctor who lived in the valley, and get his help. She needed an upgrade in the drug that made werewolves stronger, faster and more resilient. She had heard rumors that Maddox had developed a new formula that could enhance a wolf's abilities beyond anything imaginable. She wanted it for herself, for the pack. She wanted to be his equal, his partner, his mate. She wanted to prove herself to him and to the pack.She drove her motorcycle along the winding road that led to Maddox's laboratory. It was a rundown building that looked like it belonged in a horror movie. She parked her bike outside and knocked on the metal door. A voice came through a speaker."Who is it?""It's Kat. I'm here to see you, Maddox."There was a pause, then a click. The door opened and Kat stepped inside. She was greeted by a

Natalia was jolted awake by a loud bang on her door. She groaned and rubbed her eyes, wondering who could be so rude at this hour. She opened the door and saw Luca, the delta of the pack, standing there with a smirk on his face."Good morning, sunshine. Time to get up and train." He said, grabbing her arm and pulling her out of the room."Train? At this hour?""Yea, let's grab some breakfast first."Natalia walked with Luca to the cafeteria, where a variety of food was available for the pack members. She smelled coffee, eggs, bacon, toast, waffles, fruit, and juice. She felt her stomach growl, but she had no desire to eat. She took a plate and put some food on it, just to be polite.Luca loaded his plate with everything he could fit. He smiled at her and nudged her."Come on, eat up. You'll need the strength for the training." He said, taking her to a table.They sat down and began to eat. Luca ate with enthusiasm, while Natalia ate with reluctance."So, are you excited for today?" He

Luca had divided the soldiers into two groups of twenty, he assigned Natalia the first and took over the second. Natalia stood by the side and observed a group of 20 wolves. As she observed their stance, she realized they were all new additions to the pack after she left. Their stance was weird and they easily injured themselves. They stood with their feet too far apart, their knees too locked, their arms too high, and their palms too flat. They looked like they were ready to trip or sprain their wrists.Natalia cleared her throat and stepped in to correct them.“Stop, stop, stop. What are you doing? That’s not how you stand in a defensive stance. You’re making yourselves vulnerable and weak.” She said confident and loud.The wolves stopped and looked at her with annoyance or curiosity.“Who are you to tell us what to do? You’re not our tutor.” One of them said, defiantly.She recognized her as Mica, a wolf that mocked her earlier.“I am your tutor for today. And I’m telling you that
