Laughter broke through the cheers when Maddie nearly stumbled in her excitement, but Marcus held her steady, lifting her effortlessly into his arms for a moment before setting her back down. Then Maddie turned toward the crowd. Her hands trembled as she pressed them to her stomach, but she lifted her chin bravely. “And…there is more,” she said, her voice sounding sure. “I carry life, a child. Marcus’s child. The first of the next generation of this pack.” Gasps, then roars of joy filled the hall. Marcus froze for a single heartbeat, then turned to her with eyes wide, as his breath was caught in his throat. “You… you mean…” he stammered. She nodded, tears welling. “Yes. I’m pregnant.” For once, Marcus lost his composure. With a broken laugh, Marcus swept her into his arms again, spinning her around as the pack’s cheer shook the walls. His voice crack
Reader's POV. Two weeks later. The throne hall had been rebuilt hastily. Survivors gathered, filling the air with murmurs. Some wore bandages, others bore scars. Darcus stood at the throne, as Marcus stood beside him. Lucinda entered quietly with Maddie and the twins trailing behind her. When Darcus raised a hand, the murmurs died. His voice carried across the hall. It was deep and commanding. “My people. My warriors. My family.” He paused, letting the words sink into every ear. “You have bled. You have lost. Yet still, you stand. And as long as we stand together, no force in this world can break us.” Cheers rose, echoing against the stone walls. Marcus stepped forward. “We buried our dead with honor. We will heal our wounded with care. From this day on, we rebuild stronger, wiser and most importantly, united.” Lucinda’s chest tightened as she watched them speak. Darcus lifted his chin, his eyes blazing with authority. “But we will not only heal. We will
Lucinda’s POV. As I made sure Vivian and Seth were safe in the panic room that was under the pack house, I heard the horn. The sound was so loud and for a moment, I thought the pack house was going to collapse. It only meant one thing. War had come. It was a way to inform us of the way soon, to prepare. I quickly kissed my kids and went out of the panic room to meet the pack. From the side, I could see them; the forgotten Lycan clan. They were armored in black steel, as their banners were streaked with red. Behind them, witches chanted, hands raised high, their voices carrying dark power that made the air itself shake. The earth trembled beneath their march. “Positions!” Darcus’s roar rang out like thunder. He stood at the front of the warriors, sword raised, his aura glowing with the pure force of an Alpha King. His presence was fire and command joined together. I tightened my cloak and turned to the omegas. Dozens of frightened faces looked at me, hands tr
Lucinda’s POV. The next day. The morning after the festival felt so heavy. It was not bright at all. Though the banners still hung across the hall and the scent of roasted meat lingered in the air, everywhere felt so weird once again. There were whispers that echoed through the corridors about Vivian being dangerous and not belonging to the pack. That annoyed me, and I wanted to shut them up but for what reason? It wouldn't change the thought that they had in their heads. I got out of bed, and went out to the kids' room to check on them. They were still sleeping. I laid beside Vivian on her bed, and just inhaled her scent and watched her sleep. As she slept, she looked so small and... peaceful. I smiled and patted her head until my eyes slowly went shut. Minutes later. Vivian hadn’t stirred when I rose. She laid curled on her bed. Still, her breathing was still soft and even. I touched her forehead, kissed her hair, and stepped from their room with a weight
Lucinda’s POV. The next day. The morning of the festival felt different. When I woke up, sunlight spilled from the curtains, which felt warm on my skin. It made me smile a little. For once, there wasn’t a sharp edge to the air. The only sounds I could hear were the sounds of drums echoi

Reader's POV. The pack house was quieter than usual that night. When Lucinda left the kids' room, Maddie was waiting in the hall. She looked nervous, as her hands were twisting in front of her. Lucinda offered her a tired smile. “You should rest, Maddie,” Lucinda said gently. “You’ve had j
Lucinda's POV. "Challenge? What challenge are you talking about?" I said, as I pushed past Maddie and moved closer to the stage. Samantha stood there, smirking like the evil bitch she was. She crossed her hands on her chest, and bit her lips. "You heard me, Lucinda. I said that we are goi
