"I'm sorry Mrs. Kent, I can't stay for breakfast, I have to go," Leo called out to their housekeeper as he walked through the heavy front doors, heading straight toward his bike.

Mrs. Kent poked her head out from the kitchen doorway, a white cloth in her hand. "Leo, you need to eat. Your father already left for his early meetings. You still have plenty of time before the first bell!"

"I'll grab something at school, I promise!" Leo shouted back over his shoulder. He closed the massive door behi

  • The Rogue Luna's Secret    The Hidden Past

    The door to the private study clicked shut, cutting off the cool breeze from the hallway as Ella stepped in. Inside, the room felt warm. The air carried a strong smell of rich coffee and fresh ink. A small desk lamp cast a warm, yellow glow over the polished surface of a dark mahogany desk. Tall shelves lined the walls, tightly packed with thick journals and old leather books.Alpha Damien sat back in his large chair, holding a thick pen. He was looking through the white paper proposal that Jax had delivered earlier that afternoon. A small, knowing smirk played on his lips as his eyes moved across the lines of neat handwriting."Since when did you start getting interested in visitors?" Damien asked immediately. He did not even look up as Ella walked into the room.Ella stopped just a few steps inside, leaning her shoulder against the wooden frame of the door. She crossed her arms tightly over her green cloak, feeling the cool fabric against her skin. "Why am I not surprised?" she mutt

    Ella looked down at her boots, then looked up into the darkness. "I had my reasons," she said softly."Hmm, still mysterious as I remember.” Jax commented. He kept his arms crossed over his chest as he continued walking slowly beside her."Mysterious. That has a nice ring to it." She looked up a bit to meet Jax's eyes. A second later, she looked back down at the dirt path.“So, you go around choking everyone you come across?” Jax asked teasingly.She cleared her throat. "Yeah, that. Sorry about earlier. I was just... just being cautious. You never can be too careful these days.""True," Jax agreed with a slight nod. "No offense taken. You have a very solid grip."“I try my best.” She shrugged."So Jax," Ella said, shifting her weight. She slowly started walking forward, guiding him deeper into the quiet paths of the garden. "What brings you all the way to the Lockwood Pack?""I came to see Alpha Damien," Jax replied, adjusting his pace to match hers.She tilted her head, her green clo

  • The Rogue Luna's Secret    Bonfire Invitation

    Jax closed the heavy door behind him and took a look around the room. He was surprised. The Lockwood pack was much more advanced than the Voss pack. They used technology in a way his home pack never did. In the corner of the room, a sleek digital screen was mounted on the wall, showing the weather and pack news. The lights came on automatically when he walked past a small wall sensor.He walked over to the large glass window and pulled the curtains aside. The view was beautiful. The window looked out over a neatly planned garden. There were rows of thick bushes cut into perfect shapes, and stone pathways lined with glowing lanterns. A few blue flowers grew around a small water fountain in the center. The water made a calm, trickling sound.Jax sighed and walked over to the bed. He sat down on the edge, testing the mattress. It was so soft. He let out a long, heavy groan of relief as the tiredness from his long journey finally left his back. He laid down for a brief minute, staring at

    "Come with me," the big man said.He turned around and started leading the way down the long hallway. He was wearing a dark, crisp button-up shirt with grey trousers. The clothes looked neat and professional, but they were loose enough to let him move easily if he had to run. Jax followed close behind him. As he looked around, he realized this hall led straight to the Alpha’s private chamber. The Lockwood packhouse was massive. It was easily twice the size of the Voss packhouse. Looking at the high ceilings and the wide stone walls, Jax knew this pack had a huge number of members. It made perfect sense why everyone called them the strongest force in the South.Even though Jax was the Beta of the Voss pack and one of its strongest fighters, he could feel the heavy weight of Lockwood’s superiority pressing down on him. The air here felt thicker, charged with a different kind of power.As they walked forward, Jax kept his eyes open. They passed several other men standing guard along th

  • The Rogue Luna's Secret    Moving On

    Jax walked over to the corner of the hall where Serena was standing. She pretended to be busy fixing the white cloth wrapped around her hurt shoulder. "I guess you finally got what you always wanted," Jax said with a warm smile. He stopped a few feet away and put his hands in his pockets.Serena looked up from her bandage and sighed. "It was really hard, Jax. There were times I wanted to give up. But I will do my best. I want to work hard and do a good job in this new position. I want to show everyone I can handle it."Jax smiled bigger, his eyes crinkling. "Well, get ready to work. Do not think I will go easy on you just because we are friends now.""Yeah, friends," Jax said. He looked amused by the shocked face she was making. "Why do you look so surprised? Is it a bad thing?"Nothing, really," Serena mumbled quickly, shifting her weight from one boot to the other to hide her racing thoughts. She cleared her throat to change the subject, her expression turning serious. "So... what'

  • The Rogue Luna's Secret    The Final Judgment

    The main hall of the Voss Pack Assembly Center was filled with noise and movements. Banners from different pack offices hung from the high roof, and the benches were packed with Trainees for the administrative positions as they hurried back and forth, holding their paperwork, lists, and reference letters. On the far side of the hall, the last group of applicants for the kitchen and tracking departments were finishing their tests, their voices adding to the loud hum in the hall.A long table sat in the middle of the hall. Alpha Ronan sat right in the center, looking calm and powerful. Next to him was Isolde, who was dressed nicely in a beautiful dark blue dress. On Ronan's other side sat his father, Maxwell, along with three chosen council members. They were the judges. Their job today was simple: review the scores from the past three weeks, listen to the final talks, and officially name the winners for each position.Serena had finally been let out of the pack clinic earlier that morn

    I didn't stop walking until the sun started to peak over the trees. My legs were heavy and my feet were sore, but I kept moving. I kept looking back, half-expecting to see a patrol or hear the sound of a familiar howl, but there was nothing. Just the wind. Every time I closed my eyes, I saw Ronan’s

    The howls finally faded as the rain continued, leaving a silence that felt even more dangerous. It was as if the forest was holding its breath, waiting for the next move. I held Finn tight against my chest. He was so small and warm, his soft breathing the only thing keeping me grounded. My arms ac

    I sat by the dying fire, staring into the dark. Even though the others were asleep, the image of those black wolves on the ridge wouldn't leave me. Their yellow eyes felt like they were still burning holes in my back. I tucked my hands under my thighs to hide the shaking. When Kira glanced at me, I

  • The Rogue Luna's Secret    The First Hunt

    The morning after Kira called me out, the air felt different, I felt lighter. The secret of my pregnancy had been a heavy wall between us, but now that it was down, I felt like I could finally breathe. I woke up to the smell of woodsmoke and the bitter, comforting scent of yesterday’s tea. Usually
