Author's POV:

In the courtyard of the massive packhouse, two men sat side by side. One was Alpha James, the leader of the Silver pack, and the other was Beta Hudson, Mia's Ex husband.

Alpha James was busily discussing the project they had at hand - a new and bigger orphanage for the area.

But as Alpha James spoke, he noticed that his Beta seemed lost in thought.

Concerned, Alpha James turned to him and asked, "Hudson, what's going on? You seem distracted"

Hudson, taking a deep sigh, replied, "James, I... I got divorced from my wife."

James' eyes widened in surprise at the unexpected revelation. The news hit him like a bolt from the blue.

"What? When?!" He asked, his voice echoing in the entire courtyard of the pack house.

Hudson sighed tiredly and relaxed in his chair, "It's been like, a week now" he informed and James stared at him like he grew an extra head.

James couldn't contain his curiosity and asked again, "Why did you divorce your wife, Hudson? And how come I didn't know about it?" Hudson let out a tired sigh, sinking deeper into his chair. He rubbed his head, feeling the weight of the past week on his shoulders. "It's been a crazy rollercoaster," Hudson replied.

James, clearly not thrilled about being left in the dark, persisted, "Come on, Hudson, I as the Alpha should have known! What happened?"

Hudson sighed, "My mate found out that I got someone else pregnant, and she got mad. She asked for a divorce"

He said.

Alpha James blinked in surprise, "you what?" He clearly didn't see that coming.

understandably angry, he scolded Hudson, saying, "How could you get another woman pregnant while you were clearly married?"

Hudson took a deep breath and replied, "James, I know it sounds complicated, but deep down, all I ever wanted was to have a child. My wife's infertility was devastating, and I made a mistake in seeking comfort elsewhere. I never meant to hurt anyone, but I understand the gravity of my actions."

Truly, Hudson never wanted to hurt Mia. It was just that he had a one night stand with the Moon pack Alpha's daughter and she ended up pregnant.

It came as him an unexplainable joy when he found out about it.

It proved that he wasn't the one at fault in giving her a baby.

It was her fault. She was infertile.

"Hudson, this is alot. You hurt your mate so deep and I can imagine what she must have gone through" James suddenly said. He was clearly not in support of anything that Hudson had done.

Heck he couldn't even imagine leaving without his mate. Whether there was a child or not, he loved her more than life itself.

"So where did she go?"

He was reffering to Mia's where abouts.

Hudson took a moment and replied, "On that day, I watched her leave with her friend."

James let out a tired sigh, clearly worn out by the whole situation. He asked Hudson, "Alrigh t then, what's your next move? What are you planning to do now?"

Hudson, with a determined tone, responded, "James, I've made up my mind. I'm going to mate with the Daughter of the Moon pack Alpha. It's a decision I've thought long and hard about. I believe it's the best path forward for me."

James, realizing the gravity of Hudson's decision, sighed again, this time conveying his weariness and perhaps a touch of disappointment. The situation had become incredibly complex, and James was undoubtedly tired of dealing with the aftermath.

But it was clear that both men were facing a challenging and emotionally charged situation.

More like just Hudson was facing it. James merely casted pitiful glances at him.

"Let's go for a drink" James then said after a while of silence.

Hudson hummed in reply and stood up, ready to leave the packhouse behind.

The driver was waiting for them, and they hopped into the car, eager to embrace a change of scenery.

As they arrived at the big VIP club, they couldn't help but be struck by the opulence and grandeur of the place.

It was a new club that was recently opened by one of the triplet Alphas of the Moonclaw pack. The richest and most powerful pack in the country.

It was clear that the club was designed for the rich and influential. The moment they stepped out of the car, they were greeted by the sight of luxurious cars lining the entrance, with valets scurrying around to ensure everything was in perfect order.

The club itself was a sight to behold. It was adorned with elegant chandeliers, shimmering in a warm golden glow. The walls were decorated with intricate artwork, showcasing the talent and creativity of renowned artists. Plush velvet couches and sleek marble tables were scattered throughout the space, creating an atmosphere of refined luxury.

Despite the grandeur, there was a surprising sense of calmness in the air. The music playing in the background was soft and melodic, creating a soothing ambiance. People were engaged in intimate conversations, their laughter mingling with the clinking of glasses and the occasional pop of a champagne bottle. It was a place where the rich could unwind, away from the chaos of the outside world.

Hudson was amazed by the sight before him.

"The triplets must be very rich to afford to generate such a place." He commented in awe as they stepped even deeper into the place.

James nodded with a smile.

"They're filthy rich, more like the richest in the country. I'm friends with them, I'll introduce when they arrive" he said with pride and Hudson looked at him expectantly.

"That would be a big pleasure!" Said Hudson in excitement.

The thought of meeting the famous Triplet Alphas was like a dream come true for someone like him.

Those men where top dogs of the society. One someone like James wasn't even worthy to meet.

He was very proud of James for having such Alliance with such powerful men.

The beauty of the club extended beyond it's physical appearance. It was an embodiment of the rich lifestyle, where indulgence and extravagance were the norm. The scent of expensive perfumes and colognes wafted through the air, adding an extra layer of sophistication.

The staff, dressed impeccably in tailored suits and elegant dresses, moved gracefully, attending to the needs of the guests with utmost professionalism.

It was a world that seemed detached from reality, where money flowed freely and worries were left at the door.

The VIP club offered a glimpse into a life of luxury, a place where the elite could come together and revel in their success.

As James and Hudson took in the sights and sounds of the club, they couldn't help but be captivated by the allure of this exclusive world.

Hudson had one thought in mind as they settled in a corner.

What would it feel like to be an Alpha of his own?

    Mia's POV:“Talia!” I screamed.Her body was burning. She had a fever and she was unconscious. I didn't think. I just found a way to carry her on my back.I ran out of my room, barefoot. “Melanie! Zayn!” I yelled.Zayn sat up in a bolt and was by my side. “What happened to her?” He asked.“I don't know. Grab the car keys.” I instructed, hurrying to put my shoes on while carrying her. “Melanie!”“What's the noise for—” Melanie replied, swinging her door open. She saw Talia on my back and hurried to meet us. “Shit. Talia?” She tried to shake her awake. “What the hell? What's wrong with Talia?”“I don't know. You're driving.” I told her, already barreling through the front door.Zayn had unlocked the car. Melanie quickly went to the driver's side. I placed Talia in the passenger seat, draping her head on my lap. Zayn sat in the passenger seat, next to Melanie, turning his head to look at her.The fear on his face was evident. He was scared of losing his sister. Melanie glanced back but s

    Mia's POV:Talia got back home an hour and a half later than she said she would be back. She said she would be back by 7pm. 7:30 latest. It was a little past 9pm. I couldn't relax.I was worried sick because she hadn't been taking her calls. What if something had happened to her? She was a member of our pack. The enemy could have attacked her. What if she was hurt and there was no one to help her?I was ready to grab my keys and go out, driving around to find her. I didn't care how long it takes.The door unlocked and she walked in. I heard her saying bye to her friends who had probably walked her home since it was along their route or something.I stood up as she walked in. “Talia.”She jumped, placing her hand on her chest. “Oh, my goodness, you scared me.” She said. “Mia, hi, good evening.”“Where have you been?” I asked. “I've been trying to call you. You said you'd be back by seven. This is nine.”Talia turned on her phone, the light casting a glow on her face. “Oh, I'm so sorry.

    Mia's POV:I drove back home. Melanie's car was in the garage when I arrived. She was talking to Zayn. Talia was nowhere to be found.“Hey, what's up? Where's Talia and why are you home so early?” I asked, taking off my shoes and slipping my feet into comfortable slippers.“She had that movie thing with her friends today, remember?” Zayn said, reminding me.“Oh, yeah, she said it was today.” I walked into the living room and plopped down on the couch. “Mels,” I called.Melanie looked over her shoulder at me, a smile on her face from whatever Zayn had said. “I had a half day today. With the war happening, Jennifer wants everyone to be safe. She believes that not a lot of people coming to the orphanage will keep it safe.” She said, answering my question. “And besides, ever since you became mates with the Triplets, Jennifer has been able to hire more workers and get more funding, thanks to all you've been doing undercover.”“So you just go to work for fun now.” I grinned.Melanie squeale

    Mia's POV:“I call bullshit. There's no way that William will ask for a truce. We haven't even retaliated yet.” Jackson said, unfolding the hand across his chest.“I think it's fake too. Why would he call a truce for a war that he's only just begun?” Jace asked.I remembered the fact that I had met William a few days ago and discussed the war. Maybe he had changed his mind about it.“What if it's true? What if he's realized that this is all a mistake?” I asked, bringing all the eyes in the room to mine. “What if he wants peace?”“You're not that naive, Lady Mia. I know that you have a personal relationship with this Alpha William but I suggest that you keep your prejudices out of it and think about him as an enemy.” Lord Torak advised folding his hands behind his back. “Because regardless of how you may feel, you must always remember that he is the enemy and he will do anything to deceive us, like this.”I nodded, solemnly. “You're right. Thank you for reminding me about that. I'll ke

    Mia's POV:It wasn't long before the men Jaxon sent. We heard news from them about the town that the Frost Moon Pack had taken over. The Triplet forces had successfully reclaimed it. They'd gotten back the territory, even the hostages.William's warriors had retreated. I was in Triplet's office when the briefing came. Their Beta — Luca— mentioned that their sources believe that William was already gathering a new attack team.Jaxon linked his fingers together. “As agreed, we're retaliating. We're taking one of theirs.” He said.“Jaxon, I don't know about that. Don't you think we're making a big deal out of it? I mean, I know people have been hurt but can't we push for a treaty?” I asked, looking at him.“We can't keep being on the defensive, Mia. We're going to lose more that way. You know it.” Jaxon replied. “I know where your heart is but sometimes, you need to make hard decisions.”“A show of strength is necessary. We need to send a message to William. He thinks by taking over Broo

    Mia’s POV:“We’ve all heard about the attack of Frost Moon Pack at the border of our territory.” He began.It elicited a round of murmurs in the room. I sat in my chair, beside Jackson, schooling my features.Jaxon lifted his hand and got silence from all of them. “This isn't going to fix our current problem. The issue now isn't what happened to that town, it’s how we're going to respond to this. Brutally and the Moon Claw way.”“What did you say the motive of the war was, Alpha Jaxon?” Lord Torak asked. He was sitting next to Jace.“Territory expansion.” Jaxon said, “And a fight for my mate, your Luna.”A new round of murmurs flowed around the table. People glanced at themselves and stared at me wondering why I was important enough to start a war.“Their Alpha William wants Mia,” Jaxon explained in case anyone was slow. “And that's not negotiable.”“That's disrespect,” Torak said, palming the table. “Wanting to covert another Alpha's Luna? It's not unheard of but starting a war becau
