MaliaI knew Jaden wasn't doing well at all, so I wanted him to feel loved and complete now. I placed my hands on his shoulder and massaged it.Jaden was sitting at the edge of the bed, eyes closed and arms tense. How long had it been since we just spent time together, just for the sake of it? It's been so long that we've only lived for wars and thinking about others. Gosh, how hard this is!"Love," I called, making him look at me. "I think we should take a few days just for us. You know, to relax. I think you need it."He exhaled and turned, wrapping his arms around my waist and pulling me to sit on his lap."I don't think it's the right time to leave the pack. A lot has happened recently, and we need unity with our members more than ever," he said, bringing the back of my hand to his lips and kissing it lightly. "I know you just want what's best for me, but we're the alpha royalty, love, and we need to be here.""I understand," I said, resting my head on his shoulder. "Well, there's

"First, we need to see how the baby is," Jaden says after swallowing all the bread that was stuffed in his mouth."Tomorrow, Jaden," I roll my eyes."No, not really," he huffs. "The doctor will definitely be available to see you. I can't let you transform and risk hurting the baby.""Jaden, Fawn would never hurt our little one," I frown, feeling really upset now."I know she wouldn't, I'm not saying that, it's just that..." He starts to speak, but I interrupt him, quickly standing up from the chair."No, Jaden. I don't want to hear it, okay? I understand your concerns, but Fawn and I would never do anything that could hurt my child. Mark is as lethal to him as she is, and yet I'm not saying you could kill him." I huff, leaving everyone at the table, stomping away.The deafening silence unsettles me a bit. I didn't mean to say Mark was a danger, but I want him to feel the same way Fawn and I felt when he said she could hurt the baby.When I get outside, I walk to the small swing hangin

# The Beloved LunaI was blinking, still in disbelief. I mean, I was holding the picture with the three tiny babies like little dots in my belly—but still, they were big and healthy."Congratulations," Dr. Smith said, smiling. "Three babies, huh? Alpha, if it's up to you two, we'll have a long lineage," he joked."Could this... bring any risk to Malia?" he asked after a while."Well, according to the tests..." He analyzed everything carefully, adopting a serious posture now. "Luna is lacking some vitamins and iron, so we'll supplement with these capsules," he said, while opening a drawer beside him and taking out two packs of pills. "These are the vitamins. They should be taken once a day, preferably in the morning. This one here is ferrous sulfate," he pointed to the second one. "It will provide iron and help with absorption as well. You should take it an hour before any meal. Also, I think you should eat iron-rich meals like beans and green vegetables, anyway..." He looked at me now

For some reason, I was much more nervous than I could have imagined. Even though my relationship with Fawn had improved immensely, I was still very afraid of how this would end.I opened the front door, walked in, and sat in the armchair placed there, while all the others—older men, specifically elders—sat in groups."Good morning, gentlemen," Jaden said, sitting calmly in front of them."Good morning," I said, timidly.I was still a bit afraid of all these men. I mean, why did they have to look so intimidating?"Good morning, Alpha and Luna," one of them said, smiling openly at us. "Finally, things have calmed down for you, and now we can deal with a new matter: whether or not you two are the High Alpha.""What is a High Alpha?" I asked, furrowing my brow."A High Alpha is simply a supreme Alpha. The Alpha of all Alphas. If you are indeed what we think you are, you will have power over all the nations," he explained, pacing back and forth. "A supreme Alpha hasn't existed for centurie
