The Moon Shadow Chapter 9: Counterattack
In the remaining three months, all I needed was peace. However, if they pushed me too far, I would find a way to make them taste their own medicine. It was now six o'clock in the afternoon, the busiest time at the packhouse, and I was sure Drake's father would be there. To avoid attracting too much attention, I took the back route and entered through the rear door. The packhouse was the grandest and most luxurious building in the entire pack, covering an area of nearly an acre. It had three floors: the first floor was a lavish banquet hall, used as a regular dining area when there were no banquets. The second floor was where Betas and Gammas had their offices, resting areas, and guest rooms. The top floor was for Alphas and Luna, serving as their living and office area. After entering through the back door, I ascended the spiral staircase to the second floor and knocked on Beta Morgan's office door. "Come in." With permission granted, I pushed the door open and walked in. Seeing m
The Moon Shadow Chapter 10: How Could It Be Like This?
In the following week, Drake didn't show up again. Life became particularly easy for me. I had no time to think about him; I had my own things to do. Every day after school, I would stay in the school library and study until eleven o'clock before going home. Susie was worried about my safety and wanted to stay with me, but I refused. I didn't want her to sit in the library and idle away until late at night just to accompany me.Now, there was no one in the library except for me and the librarian. I packed my things and prepared to leave. As I stepped out of the library building, the evening breeze brushed against my exposed skin, sending shivers down my spine. In the dim corner, there stood a figure, and I couldn't help but feel a sense of unease. I fumbled along the wall and found the switch for the porch light. As the light came on, I could make out the person—it was Drake. He stood there quietly, looking more haggard than before, and his sinister expression sent chills down my spin
The Moon Shadow Chapter 11: Aunt Mary's Visit
It is now 8 o'clock in the evening, and I am waiting for Aunt Mary's arrival at the station. She is expected to arrive in half an hour. Last night, I called her and informed her about some urgent matters, urging her to come. This morning, she immediately applied to her Alpha Asher for leave from the pack and entrusted Alpha Asher to inform Alpha Joan of her visit. After all the procedures were completed, she boarded the latest regular bus and rushed here. Aunt Mary is an extremely interesting person; she claims to have a fear of driving and prefers to take public transportation or have others drive her wherever she goes. She never wants to try learning to drive, and we often tease her about it.Aunt Mary is my father's sister, and fifteen years ago, she met her mate, Uncle Marcus, and settled in the Nightwalker pack with him. She is cheerful and straightforward, often likes to joke around, while Uncle Marcus is mature yet humorous. He always spoils Aunt Mary like a child. After fiftee
The Moon Shadow Chapter 12: Decision
After confessing everything to Aunt Mary, she was so angry that she trembled, swearing to twist Drake's head off. I asked her to stay calm and keep this secret for me."Well, you're right. If I twist his head off, it will undoubtedly lead to a war between our two packs," she shrugged, trying to talk in a more casual sort of way. "By the way, does your mom know about this?""I haven't told her," I shook my head and said with a bitter smile.She sneered, her big blue eyes giving me a knowing look, "Not telling her is for the best. What else can she do other than crying all day? Oh! Just the thought of meeting her gives me a headache. If it weren't for you, I would never have come here."Hearing her words, I felt a little awkward. I didn't know how to respond, so I let out a dry laugh. To be honest, once Aunt Mary and my mom meet, there will definitely be quarrels, and to mediate between them will be a headache for me too.It's about a 20-minute walk from the bus station to my house. It
The Moon Shadow Chapter 13 Encounter
At eight o'clock in the morning, the hospital had almost no patients. I asked Aunt Mary to wait outside the examination room. And then I knocked on Dr. Grace's door."Come in," came Dr. Grace's gentle voice from inside the room."Good morning, Dr. Grace," I greeted politely as I walked in."Good morning, Zoe. Is there anything wrong with your health? Any lingering effects from the head injury last time?" Dr. Grace asked with concern, setting down her pen upon seeing me."Thank you for your concern, my head is fine. But this time, I have something important to share. I found out that I'm pregnant two nights ago," I said.Upon hearing the news, Dr. Grace was somewhat taken aback. "Oh, unbelievable. I'm sorry to hear that.""I was surprised too. You are the only person in the pack who knows about this, but as time goes on, my belly will grow bigger, and the secret will be hard to keep. I don't want that to happen, so I intend to leave the Red Moon Pack and live with my aunt's family in t
The Moon Shadow Chapter 14 Meeting Alpha Joan and Luna Irene Again
It’s late at night, I gazed at my reflection in the mirror, putting myself in a hunting state of mind, imagining as if I were observing prey. Hold your head high, with no tilting, and maintain a steady gaze, with no wavering. Yes, that’s right! Do relax the expression, don't appear tense, even if your heart is pounding, just ignore it. Focus on the person or object in front of you, disregarding your insignificant inner turmoil. That’s much better. Put on a subtle smile, don’t be too serious. Perfect, nearly perfect.After several hours of practice, my eyes were bloodshot, and my face felt stiff from smiling, but I was finally satisfied with the progress I made. I assured Aunt Mary that I would strive to be firm, confident, and decisive, even when facing wolves of much higher rank than myself. In a few more hours, at 10 o'clock in the morning, we would meet Alpha Joan and Luna Irene at the pack house. At that moment, I would have Aunt Mary witness my progress.It was getting late now.
The Moon Shadow Chapter 15: Our Mate is Nearby
As we drew closer to the Nightwalker Pack, I found myself growing increasingly restless. An inexplicable restlessness enveloped me, causing my body temperature to rise, my heart to race, and my cheeks to flush like on a fire. Maybe it was just one of those early pregnancy symptoms, as I recalled reading about it online. The car eventually reached the border checkpoint of the pack, and there were a few vehicles ahead of us waiting for inspection. We joined the queue, and soon, several cars lined up behind us."Looks like the Alphas from surrounding packs are arriving at this time," Alpha Joan remarked casually.My physiological response intensified at this moment. I felt the heat building within me, and even a sip of water from a bottle didn't offer much relief. Part of me wanted to strip off my clothes, but reason told me not to give in. I settled for unbuttoning the top two buttons of my shirt, seeking some relief. As I opened the car window, a faint scent of pine wafted in, intoxica
The Moon Shadow Chapter 16: Lost Him
"Good morning, how did you sleep last night?" Aunt Mary greeted me."Not bad," I replied with a smile. In truth, I didn’t sleep well at all. I had dreamt all night about Rose mating with that silver-gray wolf."Come with me to my room, we'll pick out a dress for the ceremony. Our body shapes are similar, so you should be able to fit into my clothes," she said, linking her arm with mine as we descended the stairs.Inside her dressing room, she presented me with several new dresses, still with tags attached. I chose a violet silk one-shoulder evening gown, adorned with a violet corsage at the shoulder. I then applied a simple makeup, with light pink eyeshadow and a touch of lip gloss. "Your skin is flawless, you don't need the foundation to add anything," she commented.When everything was done, Aunt Mary looked at me in admiration, "You are truly stunning."Before leaving, I put on a trench coat to keep warm. The road was bustling with cars, people streaming towards the Packhouse for t
