XANDERThe moment the clock struck the given hour, I grabbed my brown jacket and wore it, striding towards my car. I had already informed Lance about my departure, but I didn't mention where I was going.To be precise, the location Ziva sent was the Del Tree. Del Tree was a mysterious tree outside the Granelma Pack. It is known for its mysterious ability to dry up and grow colorful flowers during different seasons.The moonlight shone brightly on my car as I drove out of the Pack, heading to the Del Tree.As soon as I reached there, I stepped out of my car. There was no sign of Ziva or even her scent.A few seconds passed, and I became worried. The breeze alone could freeze someone to death. I rubbed my bare hands and hugged my jacket. Why is it so cold here anyway?Then, I saw a thin body slowly moving towards my side... Ziva!I took a step, intending to approach her, but a thought struck my mind. Won't I seem too clingy or affectionate? I took a step back and patiently waited for he
XANDERI took hurried steps toward Ziva. Breathing heavily as I tried to reach her since she was distant, the soles of my shoe were slapped against the ground roughly.Then, Ziva turned around. Perhaps she heard the slapping sound and was eager to know the source of the sound. I took my chance, I rushed towards her, and finally... I reached her.She glanced at me, and whispered, “You should go now. This place is very close to the Pack-”Before she could continue her statement, I cupped her cheeks and crashed my lips against her soft lips.As I pressed my lips against Zivas, she leaned into the kiss, almost deepening it. But then she suddenly pulled away and pushed me, breaking the kiss. “No,” she said, her eyes wide with shock. “You should leave." She stepped back, putting some distance between us.With that, I received a mind link from Lance and I had to leave. I didn't even explain to Ziva or tell her why I was leaving. It was important, so I rushed towards my car and sped off quic
ZIVAMum shook her head in response. “No. I didn't see anyone inside the room.”I sighed, and muttered under my breath, “Our plan is ruined.”Just then, I heard a loud bang from the door. I turned to the door quickly, but it caused a splitting headache.Carefully, I sat on the bed and glanced at the door. Alpha Darwin stepped into the room, with his aura emanating power and dominance.Fear gripped me instantly. Did he find out about my attempt to steal the Crystal Moon?“Perhaps you should knock next time,” Mum spoke, confronting him.“I came here to inform you about Anji. She won't be able to assist you again,” Alpha Darwin replied, interrupting Mum's statement.“Why?” I asked curiously and Alpha Darwin turned to me.Clicking his tongue, he continued with his lips curling into a smirk, “Unfortunately, a guard spotted her with a bag. She was leaving the pack through the small hole that leads to the Del Tree but was stopped by the same guard. It turned out that she had stolen the Cryst
ZIVAI interrupted, “For a pregnancy test.”The guard repeated the statement, “For a pregnancy test.”The doctor replied instantly, “Yes.”I sighed in relief, and the guard permitted us to leave. As soon as we reached the hospital, we boarded another cab that drove to the Crescent Moon Pack.I handed the Crystal Moon to Lance, and he left. He didn't say a word, perhaps he is annoyed because I stole the Crystal Moon.“We will leave tomorrow morning,” I spoke to Mum as she sat on a chair and analyzed the guest room.A knock echoed on the door, and I muttered, “Come in.”The door opened slightly, revealing Alpha Xander and Alexei. I felt an instant connection towards them, and I muttered, “Mates.”It can't be! How can I be mated to the two brothers?I massaged my temple, as I felt a headache kick in.~~~“I'm leaving tomorrow,” I told Alpha Xander and Alexei who are now supposedly my mates.“Alright,” Alpha Xander nodded.Meanwhile, Alexei reached for my hand and voiced out, “You do not n
XANDERI glanced at Ziva and smiled, “I should leave now.”She nodded, and I walked out with Lance. Hastily, I grabbed my weapon as Lance continued to speak.“Alpha Darwin and his warrior are at the pack's border. I think they intend to invade our territory.”I snarled, “They wouldn't dare. This is my territory, and if Darwin thinks that he can conquer and get rid of me, he is a joker.”“You mean our territory,” I heard Alexei say from behind. He grabbed his weapon too, and spoke with his head held high, “We fight together, we conquer together.”We reached the pack's border quickly. Just like Lance said, Darwin intended to invade our territory. We could see his men moving towards the border. They were led by Darwin as they used guns that fired silvery bullets. We surged forward too, clashing against Darwin's men.Guns fired, and silvery bullets ripped through the air, striking true and finding their mark in the flesh of Darwin's warriors. They howled in pain and rage, their bodies co
ZIVAPulling away from the embrace, Mum's eyes flooded with tears. “Don't do it!” She screamed as she was held back by the sorceress. I walked out of the room and rushed to the pack's border with the Crystal Moon.As soon as I reached the border, the smell of blood hit my nostrils. The Crescent Moon warriors were almost defeated by Darwin's men, but they continued fighting. Slowly, they dropped dead on the floor like chickens and it hurt to watch them die.From a distance, I noticed Darwin's men, preparing a weapon that seemed to be deadly.Then, I positioned myself with the Crystal Moon and prayed to the Moon Goddess. She doesn't seem to answer my prayers, but I wished... I wished she did. I closed my eyes, not wanting to listen to the loud cries, and to concentrate on restoring the Crystal Moon's powers.“Moon Goddess, please restore its power and help the Crescent Moon pack,” I prayed silently. Then, I tightened my grip on the Crystal Moon and chanted the same words that I memoriz
ZIVAI ate to my heart's content and Alexei kept me company, making my stay at the hospital enjoyable. Even Mum visited a few times and she discussed some important things. She narrated what happened while I was unconscious, revealing that my wolf would be unlocked because I was involved with the Crystal Moon. Also, everyone, including Alpha Xander was aware of my pregnancy after I was admitted to the hospital. Alpha Xander even claimed to be the father of my pups, and that was the reason behind Mum's odd attitude. She was annoyed to realize that I activated the Crystal Moon for his pack, and he did nothing to stop me.I told her calmly, reassuring her that he was not aware of the pregnancy or my plan to activate the Crystal Moon. Even if he had been aware, he would have definitely stopped me.However, she was adamant. She continued to pester me with how annoyed she would have been if I had not woken up.Afterward, she left, and as nighttime hit me like a storm, I tried to settle i
ZIVA“It is, and I'm damn serious about it,” Alexei said playfully while I laughed it off. I succumbed to licking the ice cream, as the sweet taste of strawberry was to die for. Afterward, Alexei dipped his hand into his pocket and he brought out a phone. It appeared to be a new phone.“Here. You can call me whenever you want. I have my contact number saved, even Xander's and your mother's numbers are saved too,” He said as he handed it over to me.“Thanks, I would also like to schedule an appointment with the doctor tomorrow-”“I will have that arranged quickly. So, all you need to do is rest and stay healthy. Your powerful mate will always be around to attend to your needs.”I smiled, “Thanks, and I owe you one.”He flashed a smile before glancing back at the hospital, “You should get some sleep now.”“You too,” I replied. I handed the empty ice cream bowl to him and returned to the hospital. As soon I reached the hospital's entrance, I turned back and waved at him. Then, he did th
