We were currently waiting in the meeting room for the Elders and the council to arrive, yesterday was stressful after our encounter with Colton. He has been in the hospital for a few hours and then sent home, Stephen felt guilty for hurting him, they have spent their childhood together and were friends before things took an ugly turn. I have seen Stephen always respect Colton, although there were situations where he wanted to argue but kept quiet out of respect for his King. I know this is not going to be a change he can easily accept, I just hope he doesn't push himself too much. I sighed as I looked up to see everyone sitting quietly, possibly thinking about what is going to happen next, we turned when we heard the sound of the door opening and closing. Both Elders and the council's members arrived, we stood up as we welcomed them, we settled on our seats as Elder James cleared his throat. "First, I would like to inform everyone that Darcy and Stephen have acc

Darcy I was getting ready for the ceremonies today, I was not ready to take part in a social event, not so soon anyway, but it seems like I have no other option right now. I feel a little better but still nervous, I know all the Alpha's will be here to witness the crowing of the new King and pledge their support. I was not sure if letting Stephen mark me on Colton's faded mark like Elder James suggested was a good idea, but in the middle of the night I woke up in pain. I realized the pain I felt was because my bond with Colton was completely broken, I was surprised at the beginning until I heard Alex's voice in my head. The mark that once looked like a tattoo inked on my head had faded when I rejected Colton, and now it has completely disappeared as if it wasn't even there. He had accepted my rejection so I could move forward in life, my heart breaks every time I think about Alex. He is innocent in all this, I know there is

Stephen It has been a few days since the ceremonies, things are not as bad as I thought they would be. It's not easy to accept the fact that I am now the King, I am always afraid because I keep thinking that what will I do if I am not able to take care of my pack like I promised. I am not only an Alpha, but I am also a King, I am responsible for the entire werewolf specie, and failure has become my biggest fear. I sighed shaking my head to get rid of these thoughts, the only relief in my life has been to be able to go back home to my beautiful mate. She has always been the woman I love, and I couldn't be happier to have her as my mate, I know we are second chance mates, but we are still mates, I not only have the love of my life as my Queen and bride but now she is my mate too, what more could I ask for. I remember the shocked look on her face when she found out we were mates, I also remember how she didn't want to hear abou

We walked to the pack hospital in complete silence, it's not every day we find a baby in this condition. I don't know why I feel so connected with this pup, for some reason I know he is special, I have these instincts to hide him from the world and protect him. I think it's because I lost my own not so long ago, I shook my head to get rid of these thoughts, a chuckle from beside me caught my attention. I turned to see the baby looking at Stephen as he desperately tried to catch something with his tiny little fists. I smiled as I recalled how he had held on to my shirt, he is probably trying to catch Stephen''s shirt only make contact with his hard chest. "He likes you" I said and Stephen smile as he continued to look at the baby in his arms, the baby looked so little as he held him securely in his muscular arms "I like him too, besides, I heard that" Stephen said as he looked at me with a huge smirk on his face, it was not a cocky one, but t

Darcy A few days have passed since we found Dane, the pack doctor has been checking on him every once in a while to make sure he is doing better. She said his condition has improved a lot and he is now as healthy as any other pup his age, this made a heave a sigh of relief, we have been worried for him and knowing he is healthy gave us some peace. We have been able to complete the adoption formalities, just as Stephen promised he made sure to get Dane's details registered in our pack's orphanage and then we were able to complete all the paperwork. Dane is completely ours, he is our son, and we have never been happier. Between everything I also had an encounter with Colton, I just don't understand what is wrong with him, I thought he was moving on. I later found out that he also met Stephen and had a conversation with him, I can't believe Colton has gone to the extent of telling Stephen that I am using him. Stephen wouldn't h
