Zack’s POV“She might be strong but she is still just a civilian,” I said. The elder spread his arms around him. “We need all the help we can get,” he said. “The phone lines have been cut, our phones can’t connect to the pack as we are literally having a network jam right now. “The roads are filled with rogues who want our heads, we can’t even send anyone to aid us in this battle. The telegram room was destroyed due to the last boulder attack which cuts us off. We need all the help we can get.”He was right, but when I looked at her, I felt like I could handle things my way.There was no need to leave her to fight a battle that was my battle. She wasn’t my mate. I might have made a mistake by bringing her to this place.“No,” I said again. “I would suggest we leave her out here to care for the fallen heroes and instead handle the situation silently. We don’t need to have her involved in this battle.”He nodded before we looked to the skies to see that the sun was going down. It woul

Kayla’s POVWith each fallen rogue, my vengeance burned brighter. The forest quickly became a battleground, littered with the dead bodies of the rogues who had dared to cross my path. I could see my warriors fought valiantly, their determination matching my own and this made me smile, knowing that they fought not just for revenge, but for the safety of the base which would be used for future stacks.As the last of the werewolf rogues fell to the ground, I stood amidst the aftermath of the battle, my chest heaving with exhaustion and triumph as I looked to the skies with closed eyes. I couldn’t believe I had led a successful battle and I was too exhausted to have seen the rogues still lurking in the forest.The forest was still, the air heavy with the scent of victory. I surveyed the scene once again, my eyes filled with a mix of satisfaction and sorrow.Though the battle had been won, I knew that the scars left by the rogues' destruction would never fully heal for me. To the alpha th

Zack’s POV“The war is over,” I said to the surprise of the men in the room. “We should get back home and I’ll handle this when I am ready for it.”“Alpha,” an elder spoke up. “We lost a lot of men today. I don’t want to give this fight up.”“Do you want to go into that forest and fish out the numerous rogues who seem to be coming out of a portal? Have you seen the amount of rogues showing up? They don’t seem to stop. They keep on showing up like flies. You don’t want to be in a terrible position and get caught with them.”“But giving up right now doesn’t seem like the right idea. We can keep on fighting like we have been…”I glanced at them as they all shivered before pulling out of the room leaving me alone.I was done with their stupid plots.Tonight was going to be a very long night filled with battles and maybe a few deaths.The night systems were up to detect the threats and neutralize them but I knew that the systems were not perfect. They would not take out everyone. That was

Zack’s POVI couldn’t hold myself with how happy I was as I lifted her up into the air with my body quivering with so much emotion.I had expected her to still be mad at me that I killed her mother but she wasn’t like that. Instead she had accepted me and agreed to be my Luna.We kissed for sometime before I decided to tell her what I wanted her to know.“Thank you so much for accepting to be with me throughout all of this,” I said while she laughed. “You don’t have to thank me. I like you too, silly. Although I am heavily pregnant with another man’s child. I don’t think that’s going to work out with you as the alpha. Do you still want me to be your Luna?”I didn’t find this to be a deal breaker. Her being pregnant just solidified my claim to the throne as a father. She didn’t need to worry about that.“Your child is my child regardless of who the father is,” I told her. “I will love the child just as I would love anyone of mine. I don’t mind that you’re carrying another man’s child

Zack’s POVIn the depths of our ancestral training hall, where my ancestors had trained over and over again until they had bled in the halls, we rounded each other. I was proud of this grand training hall as it was a great place for me to unwind whenever I had something on my mind. It had been a training hall for only the alphas in the beginning before it became the arena for a perilous sparring session between the guards who wanted to train and anyone who wanted to settle squabbles.At the moment, it was a battle ground between Mateo and I.The air within the training hall crackled with electric anticipation as we faced each other, our eyes locked in a mixture of excitement and determination. The training hall was adorned with ancient tapestries and old pictures of the former alphas, my father included, which provided a fitting backdrop for the clash of our supernatural abilities.“Here I come,” I said before zipping into him, which he anticipated and stood his ground ready to rece
