Kaden’s POVMy Beta, Moses folded the map and started to pack everything up as we were done with the meeting. He looked tired, like he needed to sleep right away and he was just about to leave when I turned to him.“Wait,” I said, stopping him in his tracks.I could hear him sigh quietly, like he was holding back how he wanted to express himself on how he was really tired . I didn’t blame him for being exhausted because had been up all day and now most of the night but I also didn’t feel bad about keeping him a little longer because being Beta came with responsibilities and this was part of the job.He turned back around and looked at me, waiting for whatever I wanted to say.“What do you think about Caleb?” I asked, pacing the room with my hands stuffed into my pockets.His brows pulled together slightly. “Is this about him challenging you for the Alpha title?” he asked.I nodded.“I think he’s crazy,” Moses said bluntly. “And completely out of his mind. He’s clearly overstepping an

Kaden’s POVYou heard me the first time, Kaden,” Seraya said loudly, her voice filled with anger. “I asked where you’re going without me? Don’t tell me you actually thought I’d stay inside and just sit around while you’re out there with the rest of the warriors. What exactly do you expect me to do inside the house?”I let out a heavy sigh. I knew where this was going. I knew Seraya enough to know that she didn’t talk like this for no reason. If she was pushing like this, it meant one thing. Hand wanted to follow us to the woods and that was not going to happen. “Seraya,” I said her name again, trying to get her to reason with me. “This isn’t some walk in the pack or a fun wall in the woods. We’re going into the woods to check the nests the beasts left behind and we don’t know what’s out there now. We destroyed their eggs in case you don’t know. We’ve made the first move on them and what if they are out now to get revenge? That whole area is dangerous now and it’s not advisable for

Kaden’s POVWe kept walking for a while and I was always ahead of Seraya. I’d stop, wait for her, and ask if she wanted to go back to the pack house. And every time I asked, she would just glare at me like I said something stupid. She didn’t even try to be nice. She would tell me to shut up or roll her eyes at me. At one point, I got tired of asking and stopped waiting for her too.We even had an argument while walking. She said I was being annoying and irritating her with the way I continued to ask questions. I told her she was too stubborn and was already getting angry at her slow movements. Her replies were blunt, and her tone was even disrespectful. It annoyed me that she was moving slowly, and I couldn’t even help her or check on her without her acting like I was doing too much.So I moved ahead of her, leaving her to catch up on her own. I didn’t want to argue with her again.Then suddenly, I heard her yell my name.“Kaden!”I turned around fast, surprised by the sound of her

Seraya called herself Luna and I didn’t even know how to feel about it. It shocked me because she had never said that before.She had never called herself Luna and when she became my mate and during the reclaiming, she never called herself Luna and because people mocked her about the status, she avoided talking about the topic. It’s either she ignored it or said nothing.But for the first time in a long time, she mentioned it in front of me. I stared at her for a moment, not sure of what to say. It wasn’t like she was wrong because she was Luna and that was true. She had every right to say it but it caught me off guard, and I didn’t like how it made me feel.It felt like she was trying to take control and like she also wanted to remind me that she had power too but I was still the Alpha. She could be the Luna but I was still the one in charge.I stepped closer to her, trying not to let my anger show. “You might be the Luna,” I said, “but I don’t think you’re being smart right now b

Kaden’s POV Caleb started speaking again, his voice full of fake sadness and his face twisted like he was pretending to cry.“Do you even know what’s making me so annoyed right now?” he asked, placing a hand over his chest to show that his heart was broken. “It’s not because you yelled at me but it’s the fact that you actually thought it was okay to go into the woods with the other warriors but without me.”He shook his head slowly, his mouth turning down like a child who was scolded for doing something wrong. “Do you know how much that hurt me, Kaden?” he said in a dramatic painful voice. “Do you even understand how sad I felt when I found out that you left me behind? That you didn’t think I was important enough to go with you and the others?”He sniffed like he was about to cry, then suddenly smiled again. “I mean, come on. Why didn’t you tell me something like, ‘Oh Caleb, we need your help this morning. Please join us to check the woods because we might find something.’”“But no
