Leonel's POVI can easily escape the predicament I'm facing by declaring that I found my mate. I know I'm ready to accept and have her alongside me. I know I want no one to be my Luna but Klaire. My eyes finally opened and I finally realized that her rank doesn't matter at all. Klaire is the nicest she-wolf I know. She's responsible, she's independent, she's reliable and she's everything you'd want as a mate. But what good will my realization do when I can't even do anything about it? I am powerless against the council. I am powerless when it comes to her. And if hurting myself will protect her from me and everyone who can hurt her, then so be it. I will gladly put my life on the line for her. No matter how cheesy and absurd that sounds. I know what those elders can do just to get what they want. I've seen it and I've witnessed it. If they have no use of you, they will get rid of you and even those you love. And they were even clever enough to choose one of the richest men in the

Zella's POV"I thought you want Leonel to lose everything he has? His position, money, loved ones and even make the whole community hate him?" Martina asked while we're waiting outside the pack and somewhere secluded. "Things changed, Martina. My father is dead and it will take me a long time to do that. I have no time and I don't have the patience anymore. I want him to suffer now. I want him to experience the same thing. And I will start with that b*tch of an omega. I know she's special to him and I will kill her and send him her head. And when he's ruined, that is when I'll do the others."It's been three days since they executed my father in front of his former pack who even cheered when he took his last breath. When I'm done with Leonel and Klaire, I promise I will kill all of them. See if they can still cheer when they're dead as well. I've been silent because I want them to think that my threat's empty, but they don't know what's coming for them until it hits them. I know I

Leonel's POV Right after the meeting that took place in the BlueCrescent pack, the largest and oldest pack in the community, Samson, Nile and I agreed on having a drink in Redmoon. We all know we need a drink after spending two hours with a bunch of self-centered, egoistic and arrogant leaders from the other packs. All ten packs gathered in one room, well, minus one that is. It was suffocating and boring. We talked the same old sh*t we're dealing with. Our business with the humans, the safety of each pack, implementing new rules and mostly just them bragging about their packs and what theu contributed to the community. "What's the deal between you and Sean, by the way? The jerk keeps looking your way and if looks could kill, you'll be six feet underground by now." Nile pointed out while we were having a drink on their spacious balcony. "It's not what, but who, Nile. I think Sean used to date Zella. Maybe he's bitter that the woman dropped his ass while Leonel here rejected her

Klaire's POVI lifted my eyelids that seemed to weigh a thousand kilos and winced when I was blinded by the light."Pau, please turn off the light." I asked my friend and moved to turn to my side but moaned in pain instead when I felt a pinch of pain from my side."Uhm, I think it'll be hard to turn off the sun, Klaire." I heard Pau answer and I tried to open my eyes again while blocking the blinding light. What happened to me all came back at once and I sat up, which made me feel dizzy for a second and I felt someone helping me stay upright. Getting kidnapped, almost violated by the rogues, shifting to my wolf and talking to her! I remembered the fight and how Kishna was disappointed and shocked when something hit her. She easily fought the other rogues, but a loud shot was heard. We saw Zella holding a gun before Martina pulled her away to escape. I remember Kishna shaking her head while looking at her wound and saying how pathetic we became and even using our own weakness to gai

Leonel's POVThe council and the elders have been strangely quiet for a week now. And you should never be too calm when that happens. Because calmness is usually followed by a huge storm. "It's a beautiful day today, don't you think?" Klaire pointed out with a bright smile on her face as we walked hand in hand. "It is. It's so beautiful and sunny that it's almost alarming.""Come on. Don't be too pessimistic now." I stopped and pressed a kiss on her knuckles. "It's not being pessimistic, my love. It's called being realistic.""Alaska still refuses to come out?" She asked once we started walking again. "Yes, but I can feel him peeking out from his cave every now and then. How about Kishna?"Klaire shrugged with a pout and I found that adorable. "She's talking to me now, but whenever we're together, she will shut me off.""What can we do to fix this and have them reconciled?""It's their choice, Leonel. I can feel that they still love each other, but maybe we should wait until they
