FREYA POV
It was today, the day Ace and I were to become one. Bound to each other! The day of our nuptials.
The past two days were busy for the whole pack, between making efforts to find out how to get the rogue werewolves responsible for the attack and preparations for the wedding.
Things have been hectic. But today the pack decided to put the former under the rug in the mean time and concentrate on the latter.
"You look beautiful," I heard my mother say behind me. I looked at my white gown and I brushed my hand on the dress.
"Thank you, mother" I said smiling a little at her.
"Are you okay, dear? Aren't you excited?"
"I am. It's just that I fear that Isis hasn't accepted me yet," I say solemnly. Mother came closer and touched my cheek.
"My dear, do not worry about that. Someday, she'll come to terms with the changes. You are going to be the next Luna of this pack. All you have to do is to be smart and courageous, show her that you can take on the role and most of all, do not let her intimidate you," She said and I nodded.
"Are you ready?"
I turned to see Isabelle, my new personal maid.
"I am," I stated.
The ceremony took place at the pack garden. It was beautifully decorated. Many packs showed up, all with extra security in order to avoid more of the past incidents. I can't fault them for being afraid though.
Ace looked like everything I had imagined. Handsome and confident. He took my hand as we stepped towards the sage who was to wed us. After exchanging our vows, we both slit our thumbs and joined them together.
This was meant to strengthen our bond and make us feel closer to each other. We both shared our first kiss. The first of many more to come. It was beautiful.
"You're beautiful" he whispered into my ears. I couldn't help but blush and smile at that.
"Announcing Alpha Ace and the new Luna of the moon Park, Freya." The sage said. I could see Ralia and Isis from afar both looking a bit salty. But... the fury in Ralia's eyes looked worse. Ace looked at me and touched my waist, turning my attention away from her.
"Are you okay?" He asked tenderly.
"Yes," I said putting on a brave face. He gave me one more longing kiss and whispered to me.
"Don't think about anything but us today," he said and we both smiled at each other.
During the reception, Ace and I greeted everyone in attendance. Most of them were quite receptive while some thought an Omega being the pack Luna was unseemly. I wondered what else they would say if they knew that I also could not shift as well.
I was lucky Ace was beside me. Every single subtle attack I was given came with a counter-attack. Soon Ace had to go talk with some of pack leaders personally and then I was left alone for a while. I saw Ralia at the far end of the gardens. I decided I needed to talk to her, to make things less awkward between us. I walked towards her and as she saw me approaching, her face took on a frown.
"Hello Ralia. I know I'm probably the last person you want to see right now," I said.
"That would be Ace, but you're a close second," she said coming closer to me. "You're probably happy now, aren't you? You've gotten everything you've ever wanted," she said, voice dripping with venom.
"I didn't want to get it at the expense of another and I certainly did not want to hurt anyone. It's not my fault that the moon goddess chose me," I retorted.
"Enjoy it, Freya. Enjoy your reign as Luna. Just know Isis will never accept you, not even half of the pack wants you. And you know why?" She say, her eyes darkening.
"Because you'll always be weak and pathetic," she spat.
"Be careful with your words Ralia. Remember that I am the Luna of this pack now and you will give me the respect that is due. Watch your tounge while talking to me," I said with confidence. I am not going to let anyone walk all over me anymore and especially not Ralia.
She smiled at me, about to walk away before stopping and turning to say something.
"You know, it's pitiful you're going to be starting your marriage on lies," she said. This caught my attention. What did she mean?
"What are you talking about?" I said.
"Ask your husband why his brother Kye was truly exiled. You'll thank me later." She said and walked away smirking.
I came back to the party and looked at Ace. He smiled at me but I couldn't return it because my mind was swirling with so many questions. What If Ralia was just playing tricks on me? I didn't want to think about it now.
Today is the day I've finally gotten married to the love of my life and I was going to savour it. Walking towards my husband I smiled at him and he took my hand as we celebrated our union. In that moment I forgot about everything Ralia had just said.
THIRD PERSON POV
SOMEWHERE BETWEEN THE BOUNDARY OF THE HUMANS AND WEREWOLVES.
"Are the weapons ready?" A voice spoke.
"All ready and covered with wolfsbane and silver. They'll never know what hit them," another voice spoke.
"And the protections? The first voice spoke.
"All ready, the weapons won't affect our men," the other voice spoke.
"Good. We attack in three days, during the full Moon hunt. My brother will never know what hit him," the first voice spoke and suddenly, he turned. A man with a deep gash on his face is shown, eyes red with danger and smile laced with evil.
"Let the real party begin," Kye said. His eyes red with anger.
"They'll all pay," he growled
FREYA POV"Ask your husband why his brother Kye was truly exciled" I sat at the bedside mirror, Isabelle combing my hair while I thought about what Ralia told me tonight. What did she mean? Why would she tell me that? What do I need to know? Was his excile connected to me somehow? All these questions kept swirling in my head."Mistress?" I heard Isabelle call out to me. I instantly came out of my trance and looked up at her."Are you OK? Your mind seems to be lost. I was just worried. I know its not my place to ask." She said bowing her head in a shy manner."Isabelle, you can call me Freya, no need for formalities and thank you for asking. I'm okay though so you don't have to worry about me." I said smiling at her and touching her hand. Isabelle helps me to wear my silk robe. It was quite short and transparent. I blushed when I looked at it."Your mother picked it out, she said she wanted you to look alluring for tonight." Isabelle said. A cheeky smile on her face. I knew what sh
ACE POV10 years ago I've always looked up to my big brother, always wanted to be like him. Strong, confident, brave and so much more. My brother always fascinated me. Since I was young he was always there for me, always defending me, always guiding me. He was kind to people around him, I always admired that. I liked it. Until things started changing when we got older. I was 12 at the time and he was 17. It was already finalized that he would be the next Alpha after my father. Kye started getting consumed by all the power that he was granted. He started taking advantage of all the liberties, started breaking the rules as he saw it fit. He started becoming reckless, I would attribute some of it to his bestfriend Micheal. Kye was dangerous by himself but when Micheal was in the picture he was terror.Kye and Micheal would lay with pack maids as they saw fit, disrespect and treat people like they were less than. I thought when he would finally get a mate that all the sleeping around
ACE POV "How Is the training coming along?" I asked Devon."Everything is going well, we started planning our new defences last night as soon as Darren sent your orders. The warriors are in shape to start training today." He said"That's good" I replied. I decided to see how the training was going this morning. I couldn't stop thinking about last night with Freya and her questions. I wanted to figure out what made her want to know about Kye so much. Did someone tell her something? "It's been a long time since we've trained together Ace, would you like to practice with me?" Devon said with a smile on his face."I actually came here to do that as well. I wouldn't want to get rusty. Especially now." I said"Then you wouldn't mind if we had a plus one" As soon as he said that he looked behind him and called out to someone."Yuri, the Alpha deems it fit to train with us today. Come join us" he shouted. I haven't talked to Yuri since the fair. I wonder what he feels about the whole situa
FREYA POV The next day was busy. Today was the full moon hunt and everyone was preparing for it. The Pack maids were all cleaning the sheds, the pack warriors were preparing themselves to hunt and among them was Ace. He and Devon would be leading the hunt today. As the Alpha it was his responsibility. Before we were married, I would usually watch him train when cleaning the shed with the other maids, it was improper of me because he was with Ralia and I felt foolish doing that. But now we're together and nothing was stopping me from looking at him all I wanted. I walked towards the window to look at him and there he was, shirtless and handsome as ever. As if on instinct he rose up his head and he saw me staring at him. He smirked a little and I smiled back leaving the window and sitting down on the bed once more. It was days like these that I felt disheartened, because I couldn't shift into a werewolf, I would usually spend my time with the children while we heard sounds of roar
FREYA POVIt's been two weeks since Ace had been attacked. He was already healing from his bruises. Since that day I've been giving him my blood to hasten the healing process. Since these two weeks Kye hasn't struck again, and I've been undergoing more training with Yuri. I've been improving in my fighting. We've been training endlessly from morning till night. I didn't mind. I just wanted to be stronger. I wanted to defeat Kye badly, I wanted him to suffer. I knew the reward for all the pain I was going through would be sweet. Yuri decided that is was time for me to wield a weapon. Today I would be choosing one for myself."This is where we keep all our weapons" he said leading me to the shed containing all the pack weapons. They were many to choose from. But I wanted one that spoke to me."You can choose which ever one you want. Which one makes you feel comfortable." He said. I went close to the weapons, touching each and every one of them with my hands, feeling them. Until I foun
FREYA POV"I'll leave you here Freya." Yuri said behind me. I turned to look at him and nodded my head. "I'll be fine Yuri. Thank you for coming with me this far." I said. I was about to walk further when Yuri held my hand. I turned to look at him, he looked concerned."Take care of yourself Freya, remember all that I taught you." I knew this was his way of saying he was worried about me and I appreciated it."You trained me well Yuri, I'll be fine." I said touching his hand firmly but also gently. "Tell Ace to take care of himself and that I love him. I'll be here in three days with information. If I don't have any, I'll hang a blue clothe showing that I'm safe. If I don't come at all." I said pausing"Let's not assume the worst. I believe in you Freya." Yuri said and I felt more confident. Yuri left and I continued my journey. I needed to make this look real, once I reached close to the rogue territory. I smeared dirt unto my self and I tore my clothes a bit. I wanted it to loo
ACE POVI'm worried about her.I woke up this morning with recurring dreams of her in danger. I couldn't wait for tomorrow to come so I could hear that she was safe. I trusted her to be safe. I just had to. When she came to me with this plan. I admit I was both scared for her and proud of her at the same time. Freya's bravery astonished me. She had come a long way from who she was before. It's natural for me to worry this much, she's my wife and I love her more than anything but she asked me to trust her and so I would.I heard the door open and I saw Darren. I signalled for him that he could enter. "Have you heard from Yuri?" I asked"He returned yesterday night. She has arrived at her destination." Darren said. I breathed a sigh of relief. At least this would make me worry less."Don't worry Ace, your Luna is a strong one. She'll be fine." He said putting a comforting hand on my shoulder. I hope so, I really hope so. Or else I would die because I cannot imagine living in a world w
KYE POV"Yes, right there." The maid, whatever her name was said as I thrusted into her. I thought this was what I needed but it proved ineffective because I was still thinking about her. I stopped abruptly and got down from her, I laid my back on the bed, sweat glistening on my forehead."That was amazing, why did you stop?" She said trying to touch me when I caught her hand mid air. "Go." I said in an authoritative tone. The girl had a slight frown on her face before she gathered her clothes and left. I stood up and rinsed my face with water, when I was done, I went towards the window. I was looking at the shed that Thea went into earlier this afternoon, I saw her go in there before my little meeting with the maid. I don't even know why I'm standing here looking at that shed. She just had this type of compelling hold over me since she arrived here. I was about to leave the window when I saw two men from my guards entering the shed with suspicious looks on their faces. I should
