Chapter 74

Doubting Leap

Willow's POV

By the time the next week rolled around, the plans to relocate the project team to Crescent Moon Pack were in their final stages. Everything was moving faster than I had expected. It felt like I had barely gotten my feet under me again after returning from the pack, and now I was heading back into their world.

But this time, I wasn’t going to be there to stay. I had a project to manage, and my head was focused on the tasks ahead, not on the triplets or the complicated emotions that came with them. I only had one job to do, which was to do some research and avoid everything else.

Ruby was also getting ready to leave. She’d been a great support to me, especially after everything that had happened with the triplets. But now, it was her turn. She had arranged an introduction between me and her mate before they traveled. She was insistent on it, and as much as I tried to avoid the subject, she wouldn’t let up. “I’m not going to leave without you meet

    Chapter 75Extended SorrowsJason's POVI’d been trying to reach Willow for days. Every message, every call, it was as though I didn’t exist to her anymore. Ever since I told her how I felt, and she rejected me, she had shut me out completely. The silence burned. I couldn’t stop replaying our last conversation, wondering if I’d said something wrong or if there was anything I could’ve done differently. She was a woman I had waited for, right whole years of my life. Making sure that I eased out every for her. Frustration gnawed at me until I couldn’t take it anymore. I decided to go to her house. Maybe if I confronted her face-to-face, she wouldn’t be able to ignore me. When I got there, I wasn’t prepared for what I saw through the dining room window. Willow, Kingston, Ruby, and a man I didn’t recognize were all seated around the table, laughing and sharing what looked like a joyful meal. Willow’s smile was bright, her laughter genuine. The sight of Kingston there sent a wave of ange

    Chapter 76Channels and WaysJason's POVThe air was heavy, almost suffocating, as I sat in my car, staring at Willow’s house. The curtains fluttered slightly, and through the gap, I caught a glimpse of her moving briskly inside. She was packing. Packing for what? My chest tightened. Ruby was also leaving and I was yet to sort things out with Willow. I had been there for her, always there. Through every storm, every heartbreak, every doubt. And now, she was slipping away from me, and it was as if I had been powerless to stop it. This wasn’t how things were supposed to go. My hand hovered over the door handle for what felt like an eternity before I finally willed myself out of the car. The crunch of gravel under my boots mirrored the weight in my chest. I took a deep breath, adjusted my jacket, and rang the doorbell. The door opened moments later, revealing Willow, her expression polite but distant. She had always been good at keeping her emotions in check, an infuriating trait

    Chapter 77A New DiscoveryAsher’s POVThe weight of uncertainty had been crushing us for weeks. Our father, a man who had ruled with an iron fist and commanded respect and fear alike, had disappeared without a trace. For three weeks, we had searched. Three weeks of dead ends, false leads, and sleepless nights. The house felt clean and calm without his dominating presence, though the tension he left behind was palpable. Tonight, we gathered on the rooftop, a rare sanctuary from the chaos below. The evening breeze was crisp, cutting through the lingering warmth of the day. Above us, the stars shone like distant, indifferent witnesses to our struggle. Aiden leaned back in his chair, cradling a glass of whiskey. He looked weary, but his voice was firm when he broke the silence. “We need to face the truth. He’s dead.” The words hit me like a blow to the chest, but I refused to let them take root. “Stop saying that, we can't afford to think that way and ease up on the search for him.

    Chapter 78A New DoomAsher’s POV The woman’s wails lingered long after she left, echoing in my ears like a haunting melody I couldn’t shake. Her footsteps faded into the cold night, but the scene she left behind, a boy’s hollowed-out, lifeless body remained burned in my mind. The Pack’s clinic had taken the boy’s corpse, promising to investigate, but I already knew they wouldn’t find answers. This wasn’t something mundane. It wasn’t sickness or an accident. The next morning, it was obvious that none of us had slept. “This isn’t ordinary,” I said, breaking the silence between us. My voice felt foreign, thin. Axel stood a few feet away, rubbing his jaw as he stared at the now-empty space where the boy’s body had been. His eyes were heavy, exhaustion etched into every line of his face. “I agree. This is something… unnatural. We’ve seen rogue attacks, wild animal maulings, and even magical disturbances, but nothing like this. It’s beyond anything I’ve encountered.” I turned tow

    Chapter 79Home, Bitter HomeWillow’s POVThe air was cool as I stepped off the plane, but it carried none of the comfort I had hoped for. The airport was almost empty, the usual bustle of travelers replaced by an eerie quiet. I glanced around, clutching Daniel closer to my chest while Lina adjusted Ella in her arms. The kids were asleep, their small faces pressed against our shoulders, their breaths soft and even. We exchanged a tired look and I immediately knew that we might have come on the wrong day.The trip had been long, and I was drained from carrying the weight of both my children and my decisions. There had been no warm welcome, no familiar faces waiting to greet me. That was intentional. I hadn’t reached out to the triplets, didn’t want to. If they had also reached out, I might have felt differently, I realized. I was hurt that they did not reach out to me.A single taxi idled near the curb. The driver eyed us suspiciously as I approached, his gaze lingering on Lina before

    Chapter 80Everything ChangedWillow’s POVAs soon as I stepped back into the house, I leaned heavily against the door, pressing a hand to my chest. My heart pounded as if I’d been running for miles. Why had I panicked? The meeting with the triplets had gone better than expected, yet something inside me felt unsettled. Was it guilt? Fear? A gnawing unease crept up my spine. I couldn’t stop thinking about what would happen if they found out about the children. I exhaled shakily and forced myself to focus. I had to stay composed. I’d made it this far, and I couldn’t afford to falter now. Resolving to distance myself from the triplets as much as possible, I decided my new assistant would handle all communications with them. Direct contact was no longer an option. My emotions were already too tangled, and I couldn’t risk further complications. “Ma'am, are you okay?” Lina’s voice came softly from the living room, pulling me from my thoughts. I straightened and walked inside, find

Yet, it wasn’t threatening, it smiled at me, radiating a warmth that made my fears ebb away. For a moment, I felt a peace I hadn’t known in years. It was like a heavy burden, one that served as an obstacle that had been replaced by something else, something calmer, something that exuded a sense of content with my imperfect life. Then everything shifted. The serene image of the wolf was replaced by chaos. The wolf was under attack, surrounded by figures I didn’t recognize. They moved with calculated precision, weapons gleaming in the dim light. I wanted to cry out, to help the wolf, but I couldn’t move.

    Willow’s POVIt’s been three years.Three years since the war. Three years since everything changed, and yet, in so many ways, everything feels the same. The palace is quieter now, though it’s never quite still. Life has moved on, unfolding, healing, and growing. The scars remain, but they’re faded, tucked away beneath the surface, just enough to remind us of what we’ve lost, but not so much that we can’t continue on. The pack has grown. It has become something new, something more, something better, despite everything. The bonds between us are unbreakable, forged in blood and fire, and we’ve rebuilt what we once thought was lost forever. Ruby’s presence in our lives has been a blessing in more ways than one. She’s become family in every sense of the word, not just my closest friend but a sister, someone I never knew I needed until she came into my life. And, of course, the triplets. My mates, my husbands.Aiden, Asher, and Axel. My heart still swells when I look at them, not just be

The last thing I remembered was the sharp pain from the knife, Alpha Thane’s knife. It had been a slow, agonizing descent into darkness, and now I was here, wherever here was.I was in a place that felt… unreal, ethereal even. The air was thick, heavy with an otherworldly presence, and a silver glow bathed everything. The landscape stretched out before me, a vast expanse that seemed to pulse with life, as though the very earth beneath me was alive. The ground was soft, almost liquid, but solid at the same time, and above me, a sky that wasn’t quite like any sky I had seen before—a sky of endless moons, their pale light shimmering like ghosts.And then, I saw her.My heart skipped a beat, a wave of dread and sorrow washing over me as I locked eyes with my mother. She stood there, her back straight, her expression unreadable. The sight of her should have

    Alpha Thane’s POVThe cold stone walls of the palace felt more suffocating than ever as I stood in the center of the room, panting, my chest heaving with exhaustion. The world around me seemed to blur, my senses dulled by the toll of the battle and the relentless power I had been channeling. I had tried everything, spells, dark magic, fire, anything I could use to subdue her. But none of it had worked. Willow was too strong now. Stronger than I had ever anticipated. And with every passing moment, I felt my grip on this palace, on my empire, slipping away.I had become too reliant on my power. The souls I had taken, the spells I had cast, nothing seemed to matter anymore. She was the one I had underestimated. She had grown and changed in ways that even I couldn’t fathom, and now, I was standing here, helpless. The Moon Goddess had chosen her, and no matter what I tried, I couldn’t stop it.She was coming for me. And she would not stop until she had destroyed me.I glanced around, panic

    Willow’s POVThe scent of smoke and burning flesh clung to the air, mingling with the sound of clashing swords and furious roars. The battle was in full swing, a violent symphony of growls screams, and the crackle of magic. I could hear the howl of the Lycans, the battle cries of Ruby’s warriors, and the sharp clang of steel against steel. My heart hammered in my chest, adrenaline pumping through my veins, but my focus was absolute. This was us, fighting side by side to defend the world that we knew. The world that we had.The palace, once a symbol of power and dominance, had become a battlefield, a crumbling monument to everything my father had built. It was the final confrontation, the culmination of everything I’d been through. I was here, surrounded by those who fought for me, Lycans, Moon Descendants, and Ruby’s warriors. They fought beside me, united in our shared purpose: the fall of Alpha Thane.But this was not just their fight. This was mine, I needed to give those who had b

    Axel’s POVI sat in the cold, dark cell, my eyes staring at the rusted bars. The sound of dripping water echoed from somewhere far in the distance. It has become a constant in the background of my life now. A sound I could never escape as if time itself was slowly draining away. Asher and Aiden were sitting on the other side of the room, their backs against the stone wall, their faces unreadable. But I knew the truth, I could feel it. Their hope had been drained, just like mine. We’d been broken and shattered, and it seemed like there was nothing left to hold onto. Everything had fallen apart. “Axel, we’ve tried everything,” Asher’s voice was hollow like he was speaking from the depths of a grave. He had given up. “We can’t keep fighting. We can’t keep pretending like we have a chance.” I clenched my fists, my teeth gritting together. It was the same speech every day, every night. We couldn’t fight back anymore, couldn’t do anything but sit here and wait for our death. But I refuse

    Willow’s POVIt was a small, simple thing, a phone lying on the stone floor of the room... I hadn’t expected to find it, but there it was, tucked behind a pile of sheets, like some forgotten relic. My fingers trembled as I picked it up, feeling the weight of it, the symbol of the connection to the outside world. A lifeline. The voice of a friend, a reminder that not everything in my life had been consumed by darkness. I didn’t hesitate. With trembling hands, I unlocked it, hoping for some miracle, some ounce of luck. I had been so alone in this journey, carrying Daniel and Ella, preparing for war, and trying to keep us all alive. I needed to hear a familiar voice. I needed someone who could remind me of who I was. And there, on the other side, was Ruby. Her voice crackled through the receiver, but I could hear the relief in it. “Willow? Is that really you?” Ruby’s voice, full of emotion, broke through my heart. I could hear her relief mixed with something else, concern. “Where h

    Asher’s POVI can still hear the sound of Kingston’s last breath echoing in my ears, the image of his crumpled body burned into my mind. It doesn’t matter how many times I close my eyes, I can still see it, him, falling to the floor in a heap, hollowed out by the man who should have been protecting him. Our father, drained the life from him like it was nothing. I had stood there, helpless, unable to do a damn thing to stop it. And now Lina was gone too. Her throat slit open by Elana’s cold, unfeeling hand. It all happened so quickly, a blur of rage, grief, and terror. I hadn’t even been able to scream out her name before it was over. Just like that, she was gone, and we were left standing in the rubble of our broken lives, pieces of ourselves scattered around us. The grief cuts deep, but there’s no time to wallow in it. Not anymore. Since the day our father took Willow, we haven’t heard a single word from her. No cries, no screams, no messages of distress. Nothing. I don’t know w

    Willow's POVThe first day of training hit me like a storm, relentless and unforgiving. I had expected something rigorous, after all, this was no ordinary training. But nothing could have prepared me for the intensity that awaited. The training was unlike anything I had ever experienced. It wasn’t just physical; it was emotional, spiritual, and mental. Lina had taught me to control my powers, but this... this was different. This wasn’t about managing fire or controlling my strength. It was about awakening something deep within me, something I didn’t even know existed. My uncle, Alpha Enoch, had been kind but firm. He didn’t waste time with pleasantries. Every lesson was a trial. We started with the basics, or what I thought were basics. Meditation to connect with my inner wolf. Breath control. Centering myself in the moment. But as the hours dragged on, I realized that my uncle’s version of training was about pushing the boundaries of my abilities, demanding more from me than I th

    Willow's POVThe morning sun filtered softly through the curtains, casting a warm golden glow across the room. I sat up slowly, the remnants of the night’s exhaustion still pulling at my bones. My mind raced with the fragments of memories, moments that I had yet to fully comprehend. Where was I? How had I ended up here? The last thing I clearly remembered was collapsing in the desert, Daniel and Ella in my arms. I’d feared the worst, but here I was, alive. And they were safe, at least, that was what the woman had assured me. The same woman who had brought me to this strange, serene room. I didn’t know what to believe anymore, who to trust, or what the world had in store for me. Everything seemed to be moving too fast, too suddenly. I had no idea what was happening, but it felt like I was caught in a whirlwind of destiny, one that I hadn’t asked for.A knock on the door broke my reverie. I glanced up. The woman from last night stood there, her expression calm as ever. “Good morning
