(Cara's POV)I stared at the strange woman seated before me. I was sure I had never seen her before, but I also had this very strange feeling that she wasn't lying."My name is not Catalyn," I repeated."Not now, but it once was. There is a reason I called you here, but I am not sure if you are ready to hear what I have to say.""Spit it out," Rollins commanded.She gave him one look, and then her eyes fell back on me."First, I would like to tell you a story.It is about a warrior named Catalyn, the blessed. She was a blessing from the moon goddess herself; she was best at every single thing she did. The moon itself smiled at her, but there came a dreadful day. The Lycans attacked her pack while she was away hunting and slaughtered every one of her pack members, they were only a pack of fifty. She returned back to see what had befallen her people, the people she loved and could give her life for.There she wanted to end her life, but the moon goddess wouldn't let that happen; she wa
(Cara's POV)The thought alone scared me—that I could be with Teo's child.But the probability that it would be so was too low."You wanted to tell me something?" Rollins asked, and I shook my head."No, it wasn't really important."He didn't seem to buy it."You look pale? What is wrong? Is it the old witch?""Probably," I lied."You don't have to worry about that one bit," he says."But what if she is right?" I asked; the idea was to change the topic; I couldn't let him see my fears and worries."What do you mean?""I don't know whether I am right or not either, but strange things have been happening earlier; I don't even have a clue how she knew about me.""It's all my fault; I shouldn't have brought her here. I do know there is something more to you, but that was ridiculous.""Rollins," I called, "would you forgive me if I made you very very angry?" I asked, and his eyes darkened. I held my breath, worrying if I had given out too much information."You are too good of a person; if
(Cara's POV)I hated what I saw in his eyes; he looked broken. Teo was in pain, and I was the cause; I did this to him."Please forgive me.""Tell me something," Teo asked, the edge still in his voice. "Did you fuck him last night just as you fucked me? Did he see you as his little angel?You are not as innocent as you seem to be.""What are you implying?" I asked, the tears blurring my vision, "You think I am a slut, right?I thought I would lose; I thought Emmaline would take my place; I didn't know things would turn out the way they did.""So I was your backup plan?, is that suppose to appease me?, because it don't""Is it not like that, Teo?""Then answer this simple question. Cara, do you love me? or were you just lonely when he was gone?""I like you—I really do, but not in that kind of way.""Tell me the kind of way you would 'like' someone enough to fuck the person; doesn't that mean something to you at least?"That hit a nerve, and I bursted into tears. I was Luna; I shoul
(Cara's POV)In my dream, I kneeled before a white-haired man, surrounded by a few people that I was sure I had never seen before, but strangely, they felt familiar."Catalyn of the Red Blood Pack, you have proven yourself once more, and finally, we believe you have all the qualities to become one of our warriors, the first ever female to become a warrior," he said, his voice filled with pride. I rose to my feet, a wide smile on my face. The people applauded; they all had the same look of pride in their eyes.The scene shifted, just like it did in dreams, and I was in an ancient-looking house."Catalyn?" called a voice. It was a young man; he was about my age."Can you believe it, Jasper? I am now a warrior," I said to him, but I was also sure that he was another unfamiliar face."I can actually believe it, sister; your dream came true. I always knew you would become a warrior. So... do you want to race? This time, I promise to let you outrun me—just this once," he said with a smirk.
(Cara's POV)I heard the door open. I didn't know how long I stared at the mirror, but that snapped me out of it.I knew it wasn't Rollins; then who could it be?, Teo?I walked back into my room, and I almost released a sneer, which was unlike me- standing there, was Emmaline. Again.I should have killed her; nobody would blame me if I did that. I should have ended her there or thrown her into the dungeons for the rest of her life."Good day, Luna," she said, the edge in her voice was clear. There was one thing I had successfully done: the smirk on her face was absent, and I couldn't help but smile at that, this was what wining felt like. "I guess you are happy now."I cut her off. "Before you go on, I want you to know that after this, you will be living the rest of your life in the dungeons.""You never seemed to get it, do you? Well, there would be no need for that; I would be living this pack; have fun being the Luna," she said, a small smirk on her face. It was too fake; I could
(Cara's POV)I woke up to kisses. Rollins hot kisses all over my body. I was bare and aching due to our last night session. Rollins made sure to catch up on all the days I left him 'starving'—his words, not mine."Good morning, love," he says. "Did I wake you up?" he adds with a smirk. Of course, his kisses did wake me up."I want to be woken up like this, every day.""As you wish," he muttered, kissing me more. He left a hickey on my neck, close to his mark. "You are mine, no one else," he says.I pass my hands through his hair. "Your hair is really long," I commented, the one thing that had been on my mind since the day I saw him."I could cut it if you don't like it.""Of course not; they are beautiful, just a surprise that is longer than mine."He laughed, passing his finger through my hair. "Yours is very soft and light; I love it this way. You are beautiful, Cara.""Thank you, but I still have some catching up to do. I feel old anytime I'm standing by your side, like a before
(Rollins POV) The Lycans problems were getting irritating; they kept sending threats, thinking I would lock myself in the pack to keep safe. I've always loved danger; if only they knew that, maybe they would stop sending the threats.Emmaline had left the pack.I remember coming to my office to see she had somehow entered into my office and taken a seat- waiting for me. I was ready to banish her already, but the good news was that she was leaving already; she didn't take anything from my office. I could sense that, so I didn't worry abouther visit. There is only one person I worried about, Cara.Though I regretted bringing the old witch back into the pack, every single day that Cara changed, I doubted if I made the right decision or if I should have listened to the witch.For one, her injuries shouldn't have disappeared like that, and then the particular night, she screamed so loud that, for the first time in my life, I was afraid. I thought something was happening to her, but it had
(Cara's POV)"Can I use the bathroom?" I asked May, and she nodded."Of course, Luna, do you want me to come with along?""No, there is no need for that," I say, too fast. She gave me one curious glance, but then she shrugged. I smiled at her and headed for the bathroom. The moment I was out of her line of sight, I increased my space, breaking into a small sprint.I couldn't risk doing this at home; Rollins could find out; I needed to do it here; I rushed for the bathroom, bumping into a few girls in the process; they gave me a disgusted stare; I didn't even have time to throw back an apology; I could not risked May coming to check up on me.I did the necessaries, waiting for the result. It felt like it took hours, but in reality it was only minutes, and then I saw the result.Two pink lines.Pregnant.I was pregnant. How could this happen to me? Why now?My breaths were coming out in pants, and I felt the bids of sweat on my forehead."What do I do now?"I was beyond confused. This c
