Callan POVI was sound asleep when Sera woke me up in the with panic in her voice and eyes. “Babe, babe, please wake up,” she cried while joslting me. Her chest heaved as she spoke. I snapped straight up and looked around the room for any threats. When I didn’t find any, I looked at Sera in confusion. When I looked down her finger tips were covered in blood and from what I could see in the darkness, her face had blanched. “Call the pack doctor.” she whispered. Blood whoosed in my ears as I took in the situation before me. Concentrating, I closed my eyes and sent a mindlink to doctor Desmond. ‘I need you now!’ I boomed through the link. I refused to let myself believe that we were losing the other baby. We knew that after the accident that anything was possible, however I knew down to the marrow of my bones that my luna was strong and this baby was strong. They would both pull through no matter what. Ten agonizing minutes of waiting for the pack doctor went by as I help onto to a p
Lyla POV“Why is this taking so long?” I demanded from Reaper. Reaper’s eyes began to glow red, indicating that I needed to watch out and not anger him further. “You think what we are doing is easy Lyla?” He bit out before standing up from his chair and stalking towards me. I coward towards the wall as he gripped a handful of hair and made me look at him. His eyes were fully glowing red as his anger took over. “You need to have patience. The full moon is happening tonight. THAT, is what we need in order for everything to happen.” He threw me against the wall, letting go of my hair in the process. My scalp stung where his hand had been gripping me. It wouldn’t surprise me when I looked at the floor that a pile of my hair would be on the floor. I ran a hand through my hair trying to easy teh sting. “Do we honestly think this will work?”Reaper scubbed a hand down his beard and thought for a moment, thinking of his answer, carefully. “If it does, then Alpha Callan better be read
Seraphina POVAs Maeve and I were watching the second season of Bridgerton, we felt a strange energy in the air before something shook the house and rattled the windows from its magnitude. Before I could comprehend what was happening the windows in my bedroom shattered, sending shards of glass everywhere. I used my body as a shield over Maeve, who was closest to the windows. Allowing the blankets and pillows to give us some sort of protection.Screams and yells rang out around the pack house and from what I could tell, outside as well. Drake and Callan stormed into the room with panic in their eyes, before racing over to us and making sure we were alright. As Callan inspected every inch of my body, I couldn’t help but feel a shiver from a sense of foreboding. Callan cupped my face. “Baby, are you alright?” His eyes were of his wolf, his instincts taking over his human form. I placed one of my hands over his and nodded before looking down and noting the tiny scrapes that were now s
Seraphina POV I was stuck in the panic room for what felt like forever, even though it had only been for a full 24 hours. Enough time for the staff to clean up and get new windows in. Once again I found myself in Callan’s arms, bridal style - as he refused to allow me to walk. He walked us into our room that was now in pristine condition. “We put reinforced glass windows on the packhouse so this doesn’t happen again.” He explained while placing me down on the bed and dfraping a throw blanket on me. Before he could walk away, I grabbed his arm. “What aren’t you telling me Cal?”He looked down at me and then scrubbed a hand down his face before sitting down. “Some of the warriors reported seeing a partially shifted wolf that was on two legs.”My brows pinched. “I mean, it was a full moon so that is possible. You know that the moon can make us partially shift even if we aren’t trying to,” I responded with slight annoyance. I wanted to tell the warriors, ‘no shit Sherlock,’ until Call
Seraphina POV I woke from a dead sleep to a feeling of dread. Sweat covered my body as I recollected a strange dream. A hand coming out of the dirt as a body resurrected itself out of the moist soil. I couldn’t make out the person’s facial features. It were as if the shadows were purposefully hiding the person’s face, a cruel joke of sorts.The dream then shifted to a memory of Allister’s face as he tortured me in the chair that sat in the cellar. However instead of cutting me like he had in reality, he cut out my unborn child. “Now I have both of them,” he yelled before a manic cackle escaped him. I had jolted upright out of a dead sleep, breathing hard and sweating profusely. As if sensing my panic through the bond, Callan jolted up from his own sleep and looked around the room for threats. Callan wrapped his arms around me while rocking us side to side to soothe me. “Baby, what’s wrong?” Callan asked, his voice still hoarse with sleep. “Allister was back and took out ur baby”
“Ugh harder!” I heard a female voice cry out. Whoever she was, she was getting the pounding of her life by the sounds coming from down the hall. A blush crept over my cheeks and chest as I thought about what must be happening in the room. As I continued to walk down the hallway to my room, I quickened my pace in attempts to give the couple more privacy. I wished I could experience the passion that the happy couple was clearly experiencing. However, as I got closer to my room in the Packhouse, I noticed the woman’s voice get louder.As I approached my door, a thumping sound accompanied with the soft moans of a female were emanating from my bedroom! I felt my wolf Alya instantly tense and raise her hackles. I felt my eyes dilate to that of my wolf so if there were a threat she could respond accurately. My hand shook as I grabbed the vintage gold knob. Slowly I opened the door and gasped at the sight before me. It took a few moments for me to register what was going on. An overwhelming
Seraphina's POV1 Day Prior My mind was wrapped up in the thoughts about my husband, Alister as I walked into the large auditorium that we used for pack meetings. Here at the Shadow Pack, we are always accepting new members in attempts to grow our pack. It was one of the few things we did that made our pack different from others. Some of the surrounding packs thought of us as the “pack of misfits,” but that didn’t stop my father from being the welcoming man that he was. Being the Alpha’s daughter of the Shadow pack had its perks but also downfalls. I looked down at the slender white gold band on my ring finger remembering the events of my wedding. I shook myself out of the memory, not wanting to reminisce on trialing times. I searched the small crowd of pack members and guests for Alister. Thankfully I did not have to search for long. Alister King was a woman’s wet dream with his tousled dirty blonde hair, broad frame, and sharp features. Everything about him was pure masculinity.
Seraphina 's POVAfter the meeting, I went over to Alister to ask about Lyla. "What pack did she come from? Is she a rogue?" "She doesn't have a pack." "Oh? How did you find her then? Surely, my father would have told me something. I'm guessing you found her." Alister raked his hands through his hair in frustration, "I do not know. This conversation is not important. Just drop it, okay?" I’d never heard him so irritated and defensive before. "Okay. I guess it's not then," I frowned. Before I could continue my father walked over to us with a grim look on his face. He scrubbed a hand down his face. “I don't like where things are going. We have been allies with the Silverback Pack for centuries, but suddenly, things are changing rapidly," he expressed to Alister without regard to me. "I already arranged to speak with their Alpha, and he accepted. I think we can sort this out quickly. We don't need any more enemies," Alister responded with finality in his voice, and my father nodde
