Ryan Lancester's POV:

The streets were already empty when I arrived at the hidden hotel near the southern town. The receptionist ignored me when I walked toward the back entrance. Vince had already paid her handsomely just to keep her mouth shut. But I still pulled my cap down to cover my face.

Hotel Room 302.

Danica was already waiting for me. Her hair was loose and her expression looked innocent. Her huge eyes lit up the moment she saw me.

"Ryan!"

Danica quickly stand up and stepping forward. She spread her arms and ran towards me.

"Get away from me!" I growled.

Danica stopped on her track. Her smile also faltered. For a second, her expression changed and showed the irritation behind her eyes. But she quickly changed it into sweet and timid smile.

"I'm just happy to see you, Ryan."

But I scoffed at her acting.

"Save it."

I entered her room and threw her a plastic bag full of food and drinks. Then I ignored how shocked she looked and sat on the chair.

"Just be grateful that I both

  • The Luna's Redemption   It's Time

    Georgina Sinclair's POV:It's been months since Marius told me they lost track of Danica and the silence that followed has been unnerving. Even the River Moon Pack has gone quiet as if holding its breath. But we all knew better than to think peace had suddenly settled over us. This kind of quiet wasn't comfort. It was warning.And then there was me. I became big as a house and ready to pop any day now.I swear my husband has transformed into a shadow. Marius was literally always on my side. I tried teasing him about it but Marius would just give me a look before shaking his head.Doctor Neri had practically moved into the mansion by now. She and the healers had arranged a small room near our bedroom with all the necessary equipment for when labor started. Of course, it was Marius who insisted on it. He wanted everything prepared for anything.I tried to explain that I could still walk in the garden or go to the nursery. But he simply wouldn't listen. He was always hovering close by a

  • The Luna's Redemption   Surprise Visit

    Georgina Sinclair's POV:I was in the living room when the guards outside told me that someone was here to see us.It was Alpha Ken.I was not expecting his visit today. Marius had promised to be back in an hour or so after leaving early that morning to take care of some pack-related issues. But still, Alpha Ken's visits were never without reason. But I believe I already knew why he had come here.Alpha Ken politely bow his head when he saw me."Luna Georgina." he said in his deep voice."Alpha Ken." I greeted back and smiling while I gestured for him to sit. Lydia quickly excused herself to get our refreshments. There was silence between us for a moment. I studied him quietly. There was a weary expression on his face, despite the pride and self-control of an Alpha."You are here to discuss things about Danica, right?" I finally asked.He looked up at me then showed me a grim smile."That's right, Luna."I nodded slightly. "I came to speak with Alpha Marius about her. Our packs have

  • The Luna's Redemption   Informed

    Georgina Sinclair's POV:Dinner that night felt oddly quiet.Too quiet.The others were tactful and pretended not to know about the silence between their Alpha and Luna. But I felt their eyes dart in our direction. But none of us spoke much.I glanced up again at Marius who was sitting across from me and calmly eating as if nothing was wrong. He looked composed, his tone was normal and sometimes teasing me that I should eat more for the pups. But something in his eyes and that faint shadow of thought that he tried to conceal whenever our gazes met told a different story.He was hiding something. I sensed it.It was more than just his attempts to keep me from worrying about anything or the way he had been extra sweet to me these past few days. It was the faint stiffness in his voice and the hesitancy in his smile when I asked about the pack's situation.I knew Marius well enough by now when he was calm and when he was pretending to be.So I stayed quiet while pretending to focus on th

    Alisa Han's POV:I did not get much sleep after that day. My mind was racing with a lot of questions and I was hoping to get the answers.But something in Ver's face yesterday kept echoing in my head. Whatever had happened, it wasn't that simple. And if it was serious enough for Harry to rush out of the hospital and make a call to Alpha Marius, then it had to be something more than Annie just being discharged.By the time morning came, my hands were cold from worry.Now, I sat in the car beside Ver. Alpha Marius was waiting in the office and Harry was taking us there. It was too quiet inside the car. Ver had her eyes glued to the window and Harry had not said a word since we had left the mansion. Her usual warmth was replaced by a hard and unreadable calm.When we arrived, two guards opened the large double doors leading to Alpha Marius's office. He stood by the window when we entered. His hand was resting on his desk while the other on his phone. He only looked up when the door shut

  • The Luna's Redemption   Escaped

    Alisa Han's POV:I am now sitting across from Ms. Marie Claire, my superior, who was reviewing some papers before finally setting them aside with a calm and reassuring smile."I've gone through the doctor's report you submitted." she said. "You've been through quite a lot, Alisa. You should take a proper rest. I am approving you a full month of leave, effective immediately."My eyes widened slightly. "A month? You don't have to do that. I am feeling better now."But Ms. Marie Claire lifted a hand to stop me."Your body is not the only one that needs to be recovered, Ms. Han. You need to regain your strength fully.""...Then I'll follow you, Ms. Marie Claire. But don't let my absence affect our current project. You can assign someone else to do it."Ms. Marie Claire chuckled softly."Dismiss you? That would be foolish. A woman with your work ethic doesn't come by easily. I can have someone handle your reports for now. We are not rushing to finish it anyway."I could feel the warmth be
