Diana leaned against the bathroom wall. The sound of the toilet flushing muted her ragged breathing as she tried her earnest to catch her breath. But no matter how she tried to, it was always futile. She could never get used to her worsening morning sickness.Sally, who was still holding a clean towel a few steps outside the opened bathroom, was glad that her Luna finally returned to the pack house after the repair and the return of Alpha Dylan. But she could not help but compare the time when her Luna was perfectly fine when she was still outside the pack house to this time when her Luna returned to her rightful residence yet her morning sickness surfaced with vengeance.“Luna…” Sally’s worried voice broke the silence of the stale air inside the dimly lit room. “S-Shall I go to the alpha and report your condition?”Only mates could shoulder the burden of one’s pain. Sally often wondered why every time her Luna would suffer her morning sickness, not a shadow of Alpha Dylan could be se
Days went on like a dreary November day.For the first time, Alpha Dylan Cain called for his high-ranking wolves to eat together in the pack house. This left the wolves wondering for a good moment. After all, their alpha did not do things like this.Beta Seymor, who knew about the real situation after being punished, merely glanced at Diana. He was worried for the pup in her womb. He could tell how his alpha’s punishment of stripping her Luna title was taking a toll on her—her cheeks were as thin as a rake and her eyes seemed to become big after clearly losing a considerable amount of weight after weeks of Dylan’s return.Diana simply looked emaciated right now. Everyone was worried, but no one had the guts to speak in front of Alpha Dylan who came back more bloodthirsty and crazier than in the past.“Alpha,” Beta Seymor submitted as he greeted his alpha the moment he appeared in the grandiose dining area of the pack house.Nodding curtly, Alpha Dylan dismissed Seymor immediately.Dyl
Everyone had left, even the omegas scarce themselves away immediately.Only Dylan and Diana remained in their seats. Diana held the glass in her right hand while her left hand held her belly, gaze fixated on the empty table. While Dylan twirled the vodka in his glass with his legs crossed together.Amid the silence between them, the growing tension reached to the point that it was suffocating for Diana.She was about to stand up when her vision darkened midway, prompting Diana to sway as she stood. Staggering, she closed her eyes and prepared for the pain that was about to hit her when a pair of firm arms held her.With her vision getting darker by the second, she could only look up at him—eyes filled with disbelief. Her lips were open, ready to ask a question when her mind went blank and everything shut down for Diana.“Diana!”A faint voice, calling for her in fear, was the last thing she heard before she succumbed to the darkness.There was only one thought in her mind—her unborn c
The comfortable warmth from her right hand was the first thing that registered in Diana’s hazy mind as soon as she regained a semblance of consciousness.Her eyelids her heavy and no matter how much she tried to move, she couldn’t.‘What is happening, Teshin?’ Diana asked her wolf.Silence answered her.For the first time, Diana’s wolf was nowhere to be felt. It was as if a void was in her soul—vast emptiness that was growing by the minute.‘What is happening? Where is Teshin?’Unanswered questions raced through Diana’s mind.She concentrated and let her soul focus on the link between her and her wolf counterpart. This bond was hidden in the deepest part of her. This sacred place was where Teshin stayed, watching and feeling her.When Diana finally tapped the link, a suction force almost made her soul scatter away had it not been for her instinctive move to step away from the squirming darkness that had welcomed her.Such darkness in her made Diana scamper away. She wanted to escape,
Diana woke up again. This time, she was able to open her eyes and move her fingers. Despite feeling out of sorts, she was glad she was free from the clutches of that ‘dark matter’ inside her.She immediately called for her wolf. ‘Teshin?’A soft whimper answered her call.Diana heaved a short sigh of relief. The corners of her lips tugged up.Looking around, Diana’s eyes wandered. This was when she noticed how she was not alone in the room! She was so engrossed with Teshin’s safety to the point that she muted her senses.Her pupils dilated for a fraction of a moment when she saw who was sitting next to the table beside her bed!“Talia? Why are you here?”Talia, who was now clad in an item of better clothing, shrugged. “The wolf king has changed drastically, I see.”Diana tried to sit on her own. When Talia stood to help her, she shook her head. “I really regretted not having your number. I would have—”“Run away to the Night Prowlers Pack?” Talia chuckled. It was a mocking one, not fo
“I want him back, but I do not want him back at the expense of losing his wolf counterpart!” This time, Diana was able to free herself from Dylan’s grip. Her words also helped his grasp on her to loosen in a split second which Diana took notice of immediately.The moment Talia released a purple ball of light from her right palm it immediately shot in Dylan’s direction. At the same moment, Diana had already regained her footing as she waved her right hand. A blue light emitted from her hand, creating a transparent barrier between her and Talia.Cold sweat trickled down Diana’s forehead. Her adrenaline was keeping her from staggering and stumbling over.Glaring menacingly at Talia, she said, “Don’t make me regret saving you, Talia. You are touching my reverse scale.”Though the windows and door were tightly closed, Diana’s hair fluttered.Gone was the frail-looking woman from seconds ago, replaced by pure instinct to protect what was hers. Ever since her rebirth, she pledged to take bac
The pack healer breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the Luna of the Blood Claws Pack walking in the direction of her clinic. The corners of her lips mirrored the grin on Luna Diana’s face and the small curve of a smile on Alpha Dylan’s. She immediately led the power couple in her humble clinic and she quickly let the two sit comfortably as she cleaned her hands.“Please lay here, Luna.” The pack healer guided Luna Diana.Letting her patient adjust herself to a comfortable position, the pack healer wore her surgical gloves before she carefully lift Luna Diana’s white loose shirt. Gently, the pack healer closed her eyes as she placed her palms on the bulging tummy of the Luna.“I’ll be checking your pup’s health now, Luna.” She informed the mother while letting the tense alpha know what was happening without the cost of her life. She then released a gentle yet soothing blessing to probe the unborn pup and the Luna’s condition.The pack healer felt that it was a lifetime of darkness a
Dylan was living on cloud nine.The curl at the corners of his lips did not waver even when he sat in his office alone. Oftentimes, his Beta would find him chuckling out of nowhere at any given moment.A sudden soft knock pulled Dylan from his reverie.“Come in.” Dylan’s deep voice resonated inside the desolate office of the alpha.On cue, Dylan was assaulted by the alluring smell of his mate. It took everything in him to stop himself from inhaling the sweet smell in one go. His gaze remained fixated on the petite figure who was now sauntering toward him with a big grin sporting on her beautiful face.“Is everything alright?” Concern laced in his voice. He was about to stand and meet Diana halfway when Diana shook her head gently, gesturing him to sit still.He watched with his predatory eyes how Diana sits carefully on his office couch. Dylan immediately stood up, walked to where his mate was seated, and immediately propped his ass down. His hand found its way to Diana’s right as he
