XAVIER'S POVAthena’s wolf was beautiful. Absolutely freaking gorgeous. She was freaking gorgeous. I can't believe I was so lucky to have her in my life in the first place. She was small, the size of a pup, which was confusing no doubt, but even then her wolf looked so ethereal, it could make heads turn easily. ‘First, you need to relax.’ I knew she was panicking and overwhelmed with everything happening so suddenly. Anyone who would have been in her place would have been the same. But I'm so proud she handled everything so gracefully, so effortlessly. I was glad she gave all she had to let her shift process get over as quickly as it could. ‘Just think of yourself in your human form. Imagine your hands, legs, hair, your body. Just close your eyes and concentrate on it, and you'll shift back to your human form,’ I conveyed through our mind-link. ‘Ok,’ she whispered hesitantly before obeying. And within a few minutes, the sounds of bone cracking were heard again and Athena shifted bac

ATHENA'S POVXavier left immediately after lunch to have the meeting with the elders and I grew more anxious with every passing second. The Longer the meeting lasted, the more I panicked thinking about the worst case scenarios. Was I just supposed to sit here and wait until he comes back? ‘Of course, stupid.’ I heard the voice in my head again. My wolf! I remembered Xavier's words. Could I communicate with her?'Ah, this stupid girl,' I mentally saw her rolling her eyes. 'Of course you bloody can. I can practically hear your thoughts. You are me! And I am you! We are technically the same person, or animal if that makes sense.'Woah, she could hear me all this time. What's with the attitude though? ‘Seriously? You are saying I have an attitude? I am literally just marveling over the amazing brain you have.’ ‘Hey! You don't have to be so mean! I finally decided to talk back to her. Enough with the sass.’‘Yeah, well you can't blame me. I am only a version of yourself.’‘Yeah, then at

AUTHOR'S POV “What do you mean dad?” Lia seethed as she heard the news. There was no way she could believe it. Her mind didn't allow her to. She can't be rejected. There was no way any wolf would not want her. She had beauty, she had the body, she had the brains, and now she even had status. Then why would anyone in their right minds reject her? She couldn't wrap her brain around it. She had already taken a liking to Alpha Xavier the moment her eyes landed on him. He could be any she-wolf’s wildest desire. Who could even say no to him? The ruthless Alpha of The Midnight Pack! Mating with him would be a dream come true. She would get all she needed in her life. Respect being the top of it. All her life she had been looked down upon for being an Omega. But if she becomes the Luna of The Midnight Pack, her life will change. She would love to see everybody's faces shut up when they hear of who she got mated to. When she sits like a Luna and rule over them like their fucking queen. Sh

Athena's PovThe lake stretched out before me like a liquid mirror, reflecting the hues of the setting sun. A gentle breeze whispered through the trees, causing leaves to perform a delicate dance, their rustling a soothing melody that harmonized with the rhythmic lapping of water against the shore. I stood at the water's edge, enveloped in a quiet symphony of nature.The air carried the scent of earth and pine, embracing me with the freshness that only the outdoors could provide. The sun dipped lower, casting a warm, golden glow across the landscape. Each blade of grass sparkled with droplets from an earlier rain, and the world seemed to exhale a sigh of tranquility.I closed my eyes, allowing the sounds to envelop me. The gentle hum of insects, the distant call of a bird, and the soft ripple of water created a serene ambiance. My senses heightened, and I could feel the pulse of life around me—the heartbeat of nature itself.As I inhaled deeply, the crisp air filled my lungs, awakenin

ATHENA'S POVI stood along Xavier's side as the pack doctor examined Scarlet’s wounds and bandaged them after applying some special healing ointment for werewolves. Once she was done, she started explaining Scarlet's condition to Xavier. “There are a few deep scratches and cuts on her skin. Looks like it was done by some blades and claws. Although nothing to worry about, since she is a werewolf, she will heal in about a day or two. Till then, it is preferred that she takes a good rest,” Xavier nodded. “Thank you. You may leave,” the doctor nodded, before leaving the three of us alone. “Thank you, Xavier. For everything you've done for me till date. Although I'm sorry about the cottage. I couldn't do anything to save it. They had already lit it up on fire. I couldn't even retrieve anything from it. I'm sorry for all the money that you spent on it. After all, you built it for me with a lot of love,” she looked down, feeling guilty. Although I knew there wasn't a cell in her body that
