May "I did not want to leave you baby girl but this is going to haunt me for the rest of my days. I guess I overestimated your stepmom's humanity."Dad breaks down after I gave him a recount of everything that I went through after he left. We had just finished our dinner and we began talking. I needed to know why he left but he wanted to know how I have been first. I know that he has a lot of questions but one step at a time. He is especially interested in how I ended up with Les but I did not think he would be prepared for what I had to say. So I had no choice but to commence from the beginning. Less and Juan also watched me with keen interest as I had not even spoken of my life with any of them. Today is different though. Because I needed my dad to see how much leaving me impacted me negatively. I told him how the cops came knocking one day just after my tenth birthday to inform us of the accident that supposedly claimed his life. The shock, anger, and helplessness I felt that

May "Here is what I think we should do. Ms. Henna knows her daughter the most, and vice versa. She is the one we ought to talk to first. However, we do not have to let her know that we are suspicious of the phony Aria."Goodness! I cannot believe my ears. Is this little boy for real? He is indeed fit to be the next king of the werewolf kingdom. At such a young age he pays keen interest to detail. Kids his age are busy running around playing ball and hide and seek. Whereas he is worried about the well-being of the packs. He has taken this so seriously and is ready to get to the bottom of this. Is this how a royal heir is supposed to behave? I cannot help but think about my birthright as well. I am of royal blood. A descendant of the late king and queen of Aurelia. I feel ashamed seeing how concerned this little werewolf prince is about his subjects. Whereas I have no idea what my home is like or whether my people are safe or not. Since my dad disclosed this part of my identity, I

Summer(Werewolf Queen)I cannot wrap my head around everything that has been going on in my kingdom. To make matters worse, everything is happening right under my nose!The Luminous Pack is just not the biggest pack in the world. It is also my pack. My home. The pack where I was born. My roots are here. The greatest werewolf warrior hails from here and he is my father. Apart from that, most of the members of the Werewolf Council all reside in this pack. How then can something like this happen and none of them even sense it? Doesn't this mean that we all have failed?I hate failure. It leaves a vile taste in my mouth. I hate feeling inadequate and incompetent. Just who is behind all this? We are all at fault here. We should have been more vigilant two years ago. Aria did mention seeing a hollow man clad in a purple cloak when Manny locked her up in the dungeon. I wonder why none of us followed through. If only we had paid heed to Aria's warning, then all this might have been avoided.

Contrary to what those unmated wolves said to me, my mate has not marked me not because he does not love me, but because he is virtuous. He is trying to abide by the rules of my world and that just melts my heart. I know that some girls engage in sexual activities as early as the age of sixteen, but just because others do it, does not justify it. I know that it was the constant taunting from the unmated wolves that made me lash out at my mate. I allowed emotions to rescind all logic. If I dare to be honest with myself, it has to be much harder for Les to hold back. Not only is he older than me, but his identity as an alpha wolf makes things much harder for him. Wolves feel everything. Ten times more than us humans. What more one who is an alpha?Come to think of it, that outburst was a tad bit too childish and unreasonable. I should be his strength and number one fan. I feel ashamed at how unfair I was to him then. He is not to blame for other people's shamelessness. Besides, I ought

May Maybe I am just not used to happiness or maybe all the good things in my life never seem to last. I cannot shake off this ominous hunch. It has been with me since we arrived for the alphas' meeting. However, meeting my dad made me forget about everything else. But if I dare be honest, I feel as if I am being watched every step of the way. Whoever has been watching me has malicious intentions.This is taking a toll on me and I do not know what I should do. I cannot even tell my mate because I have not seen anyone. Apart from the lecherous gazes, I have been getting from the unmated wolves, no one has made a move on me. Of course, some are daring enough to pass lewd comments so that I hear them but that is all there is to it. I have already reported all this to my mate and he said he would take care of it. True to his word, no one has dared look at me lewdly since he left to talk to them. So, why am I still feeling the same?This is a different kind of fear. I feel as if there is
