Chapter 51: Coming Home

SeleneBack in my room, I finally looked at the messages I hadn't bothered to check earlier.Rosie texted to inform me about Elina, Lara, Bethany, and her nanny, who guarded two pieces of luggage with her life. Anna sent a photo of Ronan and his beautiful mate, Rima, smiling in our garden, which made me wish I was with them right now.My mother texted asking when I wanted to come home, knowing Bethany had arrived at Hunter’s pack to be claimed as his Luna. She knew I wouldn't stay a minute with him after that.‘But we love him,’ Belle whispered sadly.I ignored the pleading in her voice and pushed her away, making sure no one could sense her presence.I could hear voices inside the flat, but I didn’t move. After all, I was leaving; it would belong to Bethany now.Then Elina’s gentle voice called out, “Fleur, dear? Would you please come sit with us?”I walked out to hug her, offering a genuine smile. “Welcome back, Elina, and I’m so happy that Lara is finally in her pack, safe and well

Chapter 52: Without Him

SeleneOnce I went through the portal, I hugged my mother and wouldn't let go.I didn’t realize it would hurt this much. I only noticed when Mom pulled back, looking at me with sad eyes and tears falling. That broke me, and I started sobbing. We were in my bedroom, and Anna hugged me from behind.While gasping for air, I noticed Grand Seer Gwyneth and Grand Seer Samantha were there, too. Trying to lighten the mood since they all looked so sad, I joked, “Did I interrupt your wine and gossip night? It’s not Tuesday, is it?”They all burst out laughing, but Anna just stared, missing the joke.“I am fine, really. You don’t have to worry. I was just holding it in for so long. I didn’t want to give that jerk the satisfaction of knowing how much he hurt me,” I sobbed again.Anna handed me a bottle of water. “Thanks, Anna,” I said, hugging her and taking a drink. She walked me to the bed, handed me pajamas, and said, “Now, you have five minutes to shower and get into bed. Because I put a slee

Chapter 53: Without Her

HunterI open my eyes and feel hollow.It’s 4:00 AM. I woke up knowing she was gone. The last bit of her scent had almost faded, meaning she left hours ago. I looked up, hoping she had somehow climbed up the tree seeking safety, praying to the Goddess for a second chance to undo my mistakes, to find her, and to meet her for the first time.Dan offers a quiet kind of support. I walked over to her spot, naively thinking she only shifted in her sleep. Expecting her to be waiting for me, to beg her even more; to come back with me, realizing she is all alone, to let me hold and protect her from this cold world.But deep inside, I knew she wouldn’t stay. Not after her words last night, and not after I told her I can’t ask Bethany to leave my pack. I had pushed her so far that she’d rather be hurt in the dark woods than stay with me.I walk back with Dan to our pack, a pack without a flat, love, or Fleur. I clear my throat. "Dan, have the maids clean my cabin."He nods. “Consider it done,”

Chapter 54: First Shift - Part 1

ONE MONTH LATERSeleneIn two weeks, my birthday brings the moment I meet my wolf, a union between human and beast, far beyond any cake or celebration.Anxiety creeps in because HJ won't be here for my first shift, an experience that only happens once but creates a memory I will keep for a lifetime. His betrayal forced me to leave. Instead of having him here with me to ground me, soothe my pain, lose myself in his eyes, and guide me on how to accept my beast, he is gone. As for the rest of the Silver Moon pack, they only ever knew me as Fleur.Feeling nervous, I walked into the garden to ask my parents if Rosie can attend my special day. Though they rarely welcome outsiders, they know how much she means to me."Mother, Father," I say, "It’s almost time, and I need to ask a favor."Father fake ignorance, "What time are you referring to, sweetheart?"Mother blinks innocently. "Time for what, darling?"I cross my arms, "You both know exactly what time it is. Stop pretending."Mother laug

Chapter 55: First Shift – Part 2

ONE DAY TO SHIFTSeleneFor the past two weeks leading up to my shift, my body felt heavy and exhausted while my mind raced with stress. Today, however, I woke up with sudden clarity, humming with energy and a sweet sense of relief.When my father told me to wear training gear that morning, I thought he was sending me to the lake with Kira to keep my mind off HJ. Instead, he led me deep in the forest to a sunny flat ground where hundreds of warriors stood ready; revealing that he was the one secretly leading their training all along. After just a month here, I could feel myself getting stronger, eager to show everyone the new Selene with Belle by my side.That night, I texted Rosie to confirm our plan. She replied that she would message me the moment HJ and Dan left the cabin, leave a note on the counter so they wouldn't worry. As a precaution, I ask her to leave her phone behind as well.We had all been gathered together in the garden afternoon, but one by one the others drifted off

Chapter 56: A Lesson in Leadership

SeleneSelene wakes up in her own bed, her aching body wrapped in sheets while her mind battles between sudden fear and the thrilling memory of freedom. Torn between the terrifying reality of what she has become and a strong, undeniable hunger for the wild power humming in her veins.'Feeling alright?' Belle asked. 'The run was magnificent.'I smiled, though my body protested. 'At first, I thought I was losing my mind. I didn't want to show weakness in front of my parents and loved ones, or make Anna worry and get afraid of the transition experience for when her time comes.'I let out a long sigh. 'The running was amazing indeed, but all my muscles are screaming and aching.'Belle murmured in my mind, ‘The pain will reduce until it's gone completely; the more we shift, the less it will hurt. The panic will fade, but the run is your way to calm yourself, to bond, increase our speed and power, enhance our senses and clear our minds.’'I feel the woods are still calling,' I added softly

Chapter 57: A Night to Remember

EmmaThe night before, I got Alpha’s permission to skip training, as I was spending the weekend outside the pack with Dan.I have been called many names; street-smart, tough cookie, the fixer, but never girlfriend. Especially not by someone like Dan. His hot looks caught my eye immediately, but after we got together, I was attracted to how confident, protective, and kind he was. The list of reasons to love him just kept growing.Before this, we met to spend the day together, in the human world away from our packs, and head back at night. He took me everywhere; movies, museums, parks, and bars.On those trips, we ran into women from his past; women in their thirties who knew how to please a man and flirted seductively. Dan ignored them, but when one wouldn't stop and put her hands on his shoulders, he snapped, "Are you too drunk to see I'm with my girlfriend? We fucked once; now get over it and get lost!" Hearing him say that made me realize just how serious he was about us.We’d been

Chapter 58: Before the Weekend Ends

EmmaAfter reading Anna’s message, I went back to sleep. When I woke up again, Dan’s side of the bed was empty and cold. I called him in case he was in another room in the suite, but got no answer; even the bathroom was empty. However, his clothes were still in the closet, yet he was gone.Wrapped in the bedsheets, I sat in the same chair by the window where Dan had been last night. From there, I could see a building with a sign that read "Employees Office Entrance." People were still working inside even at this hour—meaning at night, everything inside would be even more visible.Where was he?Did he regret last night?Was I that bad that he left even before he could look me in the eye?I felt conflicted. After last night's intimacy, I thought it would bring us closer now that there were no more barriers. Yet I woke up to this sudden silence, all by myself, to see him gone. It made me feel cheap, broken, used, and pushed aside after I had served my purpose.But deep inside, I knew Da

Chapter 59: Taking My Heart With Me

EmmaWe ate light dinner, then drove to the bar after.I said, "Dan, sorry if I was mean to you, but you should have picked another place for us, not one you have been to with an ex.”"Emma, babe, I can’t apologize enough. I was looking forward to spending this getaway with you and completely messed it up," he replied in a soft voice.I nodded. "Let’s set some rules: no secrets, no lies, and we accept each other just the way we are."Dan smiled. "I love you just the way you are, baby.""The first time you tell me that you love me!" I whispered."I fell in love with you the second I saw you on that horse, Emma," he said gently.“This morning, I thought you were gone because you didn't like me!” I said sadly.He exclaimed, "WHAT?"He pulled over and gently held my face. "Baby, listen to me. I love you, and I loved our night together so much that it took everything in me not to wake you up this morning and make love to you all over again."I smiled. "Really! Then why did you leave?"", E
