~•ARET•~The garden was wide and rich in flowers and trees.Birds chirped and I could feel a different surge of energy as I stepped further into the garden.There were three sets of tables with chairs on each side. Nova was seated in the middle, staring at the greenhouse in amusement.She turned in my direction and called me over. “Aret! Come on!” Seeing her so happy, I didn't know when I just burst into tears, my legs giving up on me.“Aret!” Nova rushed towards me, holding me up and placing me on a nearby bench. “What's wrong?” She asked, her eyebrows furrowing in worry.I stared at her, she was glowing. Her hair looked rich, and her eyes shone brighter.My eyes trailed down to her neck and I could see the initials DC with a little crown branded on her.“You got marked.” I breathed as I could see her face morphing into a pink ball.My smile faltered a bit, she had only been here for a week, and she was already marked, unlike me.But then, after what I found out, I would rather not

~NOVA~I stood in front of the tall window in the chambers watching as Mobali my room to the castle grounds to see that Mobali had already shifted into his human form holding in his wolf form rushes into the castle gates with Aret on his back. I gasp, rushing out of Aret who seemed limp in his arms.“What did you do to her?” I question, he raised his eyes in my direction.“She was attacked by rogues, apparently, she had escaped from the castle and no one knew, not even you, her best friend.”I gulped, taking a step back as I felt a warm hand squeezing my arm and I felt safe.“Cut it out, Mo., you're scaring her.” Dywane snapped at mobali who sneered, walking away.“Why wouldn’t she escape after finding out how much of a kill freak you people are?” he stopped abruptly in his footsteps.“What do you mean?”“She knows,”“knows what?” Mobali questioned, making me glare at him boldly.“How you sent all the males including her brother and father to aturion. That was the reason she ran away

~ARET~“Are you going to stay angry at me forever?” Hawaii asked, I was still settling into my new Office that I had been assigned to perform my duties as Luna and Supreme Luna Queen.“If possible, yes, yes I will,” I responded, picking out some files from the dark-colored desk.The Supreme Luna Office is as big as a quarter itself. The main entrance is the lounge or waiting room, then the inner is my office and a door leads to a bathroom and a little bedroom for rest.“Lun-”“Shh,” I say, bringing my finger to my lips and glaring at Hawaii, I stepped in front of the full-length mirror admiring my outfit. I was dressed in a yellow long-sleeved dress with white heels and a topaz-embedded tiara.“I'm truly sorry, you know that.” Hawaii explained while I stamped documents.“You are my lady-in-waiting, not the Alpha's, my orders should surpass his. Always.” I instructed as Hawaii nodded vigorously, making me smirk.“Yes, yes, I understand, and ill never make that mistake again.”“Good, No

~LORRAINE~“Run! They are after us!” I held Laurel's hand as we ran deep into the forest, we could still hear the roars of the wolves a mile away.“Let's shift,” Laurel said as she tried to morph into her wolf form, but her bones didn't shift.“We cannot shift, we are too injure-”“Lorraine! Watch out!” Laurel shouted as a wolf slammed into us, sending us flying into the river.The thing was that we both couldn't swim. I struggled to keep my head above water, but the more I struggled, the fewer chances I had of surviving.I could feel the oxygen leave my lungs as I found myself sinking into the river with Laurel by my side.“Lorraine! Wake up! “ I coughed out water to see the Luna, my mom, Delta, and Laurel standing beside me.We were at the shore of the river, my hair was still damp from the water.“I-i thought I was going to die,” I say, sniffling.“No, you're okay, you're safe.”I jolt up from the bed, sweat dripping all over me. I look around to see unfamiliar curtains. I walk tow

~NOVA~“Wait!” Aret yelled, making the guards release the maid as she crawled towards Aret.“I remember! There was something wrong with my hairpin, so I had the maid help me sneak it out to fix it.” Aret explains taking the hairpin from Hawaii.“See? Somewhere around here.” she says, pointing at the supposed dent in the hairpin.'Help me out here, play along.' Aret says through the mind link. I furrow my brows confused.'Why save her?' I asked'ill explain later, just please.'I walked closer, rubbing my chin. “Yes, I remember you telling me that there was a dent in your hairpin and this maid knew a goldsmith who could fix it.”Are nodded, helping the maid up.“I'm sorry everyone, but she's not a thief.” Aret shouts, motioning to Hawaii to help her lift the maid up.“Everyone, dismiss and return to your stations!” I ordered everyone to disperse, the Supreme Leaders also walked out.“Hun,” Dwayne called out to me.“Let's go?”“No, i'll see you later, i want to help Aret.” I say to him,
