Callista’s POV~~ Looking at Lily and Andrian in each other’s arms reminded me of those moments with Tristan while I was still his Luna. The memories flooded into my mind as I watched them catch up with each other after five years of separation. I can’t doubt Andrian’s love for Lily. I remembered that he used to be all over her back then. The sheer thought of Tristan being my father’s and healer Ragnar’s killer made me boil with rage. I want him to bear the consequences of what he has done, and at the same time, I need to know who my father truly was, but now that the only person who knew about him and was his friend was killed by Tristan, it makes me feel hopeless and helpless. With the rage brewing inside me, I diverted my gaze from the two couples enjoying their reunion again. At least they should, while I also enjoy my revenge. As I turned to Tristan, I noticed he had been carried away from what was going on. His gaze was fixed on Tristan and Lily. He let his guards down. A wick
Tristan’s POV~~ The sight of Lily caught me by surprise. I couldn’t believe she was still alive when it was obvious she drank the poison that night. Was this all planned? I thought Callista, too, was dead, but here she was. My gaze lingered on the scene before me; the moment enveloped me in a whirlwind of emotions, carrying me away on a tide of overwhelming feelings. A pang of longing pierced my heart as I watched, wishing it was Callista and I that were in that position at that moment. The yearning in my eyes mirrored the ache in my soul as I silently yearned to be enveloped in that same warmth. The thought of losing my mate tightened my chest as misery sank its claws so deeply in my heart. I wished I could revert back to the hand of time and never break bonds with her. I was so lost in thoughts that I had forgotten about the impending attack. I thought she was feeling the same way I did, but it downed me when I saw the red lightning ball of energy surging towards me. My heart r
Third-person POV_FLASHBACK_“I won’t take pity on you weaklings,” Damian Ironclaw, the Alpha of the midnight Mirage pack, voice sliced through the silence, his tone firm yet tinged with a hint of desperation as he led his warriors with a determined stride. His fur, a sleek coat of silver, rippled with power and determination as he approached the border of the Midnight Mirage pack with his wolf warriors, whose eyes gleamed with anticipation for the battle ahead. Across the woods, with towering trees, the Midnight Mirage pack’s warriors awaited their fate. They were led by Sterling Stone, their Alpha, as they braced themselves for the inevitable clash with the Wolfsong Dominion pack. But deep down, they knew they were outmatched. Their numbers were fewer, and their strength was no match for the sheer might of Damian's pack.Beside Sterling was Kieran Logan, his beta; he is known for his wisdom and diplomacy. His gaze was fixed on the approaching threat. The tension in the air was palp
Callista’s POV“Ever since Sterling Stone, your father, was offered a peace treaty with the Wolfsong Dominion pack, Alpha Damian has kept to his promise. They didn’t invade our pack, and they all lived in peace,” Tristan explained as a murmur escaped the mouths of the watching pack members. “My father breached the agreement years later when we attacked the Wolfsong Dominion. It was during this attack that he ordered me to kill your father, fearing that he would come back to claim his rightful position as the Alpha of this pack,” Tristan finished, burying his face in his palm as regret etched over him. “Tristan! Why did you keep all these away from me?” Andrian shot Tristan a dagger with his eyes. He asked with a betrayed voice as he stood up and moved away from Tristan. Andrian only knows that Sterling Stone was the former Alpha before Tristan’s father. Tristan shook his head in regret. “I am sorry,” he pleaded regretfully.“You are evil,”“You don’t deserve any mercy, Alpha.”“He
Callista’s POV~~ “We will go meet daddy soon,” I replied, holding her hands as I turned back to Lily and Shaman Magnus. At the sight of them. A megawatt smile appeared on my face. They have made this possible for me, without them I don’t think I would be able to be here right now. They have kept me going when I felt hopeless. They are the only family I have now and I must reward them for what they have gone through for me and Jessica. In split seconds, I found myself running towards Shaman Magnus and in a twinkle of an eye I was already in his open arms ready to receive me. I hugged him tightly to myself like a daughter would do to her father. He has been more than a father to me in the last few years that we have been together. “Thank you Shaman Magnus,” I uttered with a gratitude filled voice. “I’m happy you finally have what belongs to you,” he said, his voice tinged with emotion. “It’s all thanks to you Shaman, thanks for standing by me all through thick and thin,” I added.
Callista’s POV~~“Esteemed members of the Midnight Mirage pack, tonight, I am happy to tell you that the true Alpha of this great pack is ready to take on the position of her father.” Andrian stopped and stared in my direction. I gestured at him to continue. “Look at the moon in its full bloom,” the gathered pack members said, raising their heads to look at the night sky. It’s like a big blanket of darkness with tiny sparkling lights—the stars scattered all over, like glitter. And there is the moon, a silvery ball, hanging up there in its full glory, shining so brightly like a giant glowing pearl. Seeing these things made a small smile creep up on my face. “This is a sign that the moon goddess supports this ceremony that is about to be conducted,” Andrian continued. “It is also a sign that she has Alpha’s blood.” Shaman Aurora Spiritwatcher commented; she is the shaman who confirmed that I had a pup with the Alpha’s blood that night before I was taken to the dungeon. Since she didn
Callista’s POV~~ “It—its Alpha Tristan?” He pointed in the direction of the dungeon. “What happened to him?” I demanded with curiosity etched on my face. Even though he has done something wrong to me, I still don’t want anything bad to happen to him yet. I want him to go through the hell I passed through while in that dungeon. “I—I think he is dead.” “Dead?” I felt a pang of pain shoot through me. No way; he can’t be. “We will be right back.” I turned to Jessica, who looked so confused. “Let’s go, Andrian,” I ordered as we scurried out of the dining room and headed to the dungeon, which was a long distance from the main pack houses. I had wondered why it was situated at that location, which is very far from the pack’s cottages. As we go into the dungeon, the memory of the last time I found myself here replays itself in my head. The torment I went through from the hands of the guards, Delta Elowen, and Tristan himself. The agony of being force-fed like a prisoner. The thought of
Callista’s POV~~ “We are ready to go with you anytime, my Alpha,” Andrian said with a slight bow. “Are you really sure that Tristan used the red ball of lightning during the duel?” I demanded, getting my mind away from the Wolfsong Dominion pack. They are the least that would bother me right now. The fact that Tristan used the red ball of lightning still caught me by surprise. How was he able to do that? Does that mean we have the same power or because we were mates? I will make sure to unravel the mystery behind this. “I am so sure of it, my Alpha,” Andrian confirmed. I trust him; he can’t lie about that. I patted Andrian slightly at the back, even though he was taller than I am. “We will get to the root of it. Let’s get back to the pack house. The rest will be waiting; the dinner might have gotten cold.” We hasten our pace as we head back to the pack house, then make our way to the dining room immediately. “Where is my Jessie?” I asked as soon as I noticed Jessica’s absence in
