A few days ago"Father! Mercedes slips further through my fingers. And now there's a she-wolf in the pack which claims to be my mate." Glary sits before his father with a pained expression on his face. “I want Mercedes and no one else. I must have her. Please, father, help me!”.Startled, Alpha Ahri of Silver Moon listens to his son's determination.He has never seen him in this condition before. Glary is his only child and the future Alpha of the pack. He had thought to forward the position to him as soon as he found his mate. When a rumor spread a few days ago that a she-wolf from Midnight Moon is Glary's fated mate and she was now in Silver Moon, he had his Intelligence Service investigate the matter. And indeed, one she-wolf named Jasmine, a strong warrior, was identified. She came to the pack with Saphira, but like Glary, she also despises their mate bond.The Alpha cannot understand that his son rejected this woman. With black hair down to her bum and amazing blue eyes in a shar

With her hand in his, they walk out of the pub to Glary’s car.Once he has settled Mercedes and sits behind the wheel, he directs the vehicle straight out of the pack. It's actually too early for dinner so he decides to go to a lake for them to have a nice swim.Mercedes lets it all come to her.The only thing on her mind is how to meet Zane again. Now that she can go outside the pack with Glary, she knows her best options are here. If only she could somehow reach Zane. She doesn't want to get Saphira into trouble by sending messages to Zane through her. Alpha Ahri has the authority to listen in to all outgoing calls. He knows that Saphira is her only link to Midnight Moon and she suspects he checks that one out.Glary buys some light snacks and juice in a pastry shop along the way. As they continue on their way, he’s leading the conversation with talks about his training days in Shadow Moon and that he will also introduce combat training to she-wolves in Silver Moon once he takes ove

In the days that follow, Glary and Mercedes constantly appear together in public.Every morning he picks her up to have an intimate breakfast together in the packhouse or a cafe in the pack. Some nights they go clubbing, Glary always makes sure everyone notices his claim on Mercedes. His hand is around her waist or on her shoulder all the time, he never lets her be far from his side.The pack members are watching the scene pass with mixed feelings.They know Alpha Zane is the fated of Mercedes, for years, they watched the couple in love and strolling private in the pack. And just some weeks before her official mating day, here is Glary claiming her and the Alpha is nowhere to be seen in Silver Moon anymore. They all now take a wait-and-see approach. Many understand that this will not end well, Alpha Zane is a potent leader of a fearful pack and is not known as a peace-loving man when it comes to defending his interests. And Mercedes can be counted as his most important stake. Small gr

"Your parents were very accommodating, I really appreciate that," Glary told the woman sitting next to him in the car. They are on their way to an intimate lunch at a fancy restaurant in Human Town. Satisfied, he looks ahead as Mercedes sits excitedly next to him. Glary thinks she's thrilled to celebrate her parents' approval over lunch with him.“Did you expect otherwise? My parents are the Beta of this pack. My father once told me that it was expected that I would mate with the Alpha son”, she says. "So, they were prepared for all this." Glary snorts in agreement, his happiness knows no bounds.When they arrive at the location, he courteously opens her door and takes her hand. Like a couple in love, they register and are immediately escorted to a reserved room with entire walls of glass. This way they can overlook the general room outside and still have private conversations. Glary pre-ordered some exotic dishes. He knows Mercedes' tastes when it comes to cuisine. As soon as they si

“Zane! Shadow Moon has its warriors on high alert. Looks like they are preparing for war.”Beta Jace bursts into his private living room as he relaxes on the couch with his hands under his head. Alpha Zane is all happy at the moment, the only thing he lacks is his mate next to him. But he knows it's only a matter of time, just over a week and Mercedes will be in his arms forever. Just the thought of it makes his heart pound heavily in his chest.And now his Beta comes storming in with less good news.Midnight Moon has a peace and cooperation agreement with Shadow Moon, which he does not believe Alpha Rainer will violate. His colleague must have a purpose other than to attack his pack. “Beta, let our Intelligence do an in-depth investigation. Alpha Rainer's aggression is certainly not directed at us. There are no reasons for that and I don't think he is tired of life. There must be another reason for his actions.” He's barely finished speaking when Gamma Kenry steps in. He is furious,
