《Sinful Love》


 Chapter 1: The Bedtime Story

    Chapter 1: The Bedtime Story


    Once upon a time, in a distantnd, there lived a beast who was the most powerful, merciless and


    fierce of all, making him the king of beast, King Samrat.


    His endless thirst to self-perfection made him the best as a leader, a philosophist, a healer or a warrior.


    His thinking and idea were radical and uncontemporary, marching his faithful followers ahead of others,


    hence they were the most respected pack.


    The king, however, fell in love with a human girl, Elisa Mitkoi. She was as delicate as a flower with a


    glowing fair skin, soft pink lips and a pair of eyes to melt the ice mountain. She too loved the king with


    all her heart. Every night, when the vige has hushed down, the lovers will meet in secret, as it is a


    cringing sin to be in love with a beast. Soon, their love was gifted with a baby girl and Elisa moved into


    a hut, deep in the forest to keep her sinful love away from the world. The baby girl would probably be


    the most mesmerizing baby in the world and beyond. Her round grey eyes with ck rim, twinkle as the


    star of night, chubby cheeks with a hint of rose and nose too sharp for a baby. The two girls became


    the heartbeat of the king. If the king was everte to arrive home, his baby girl would crawl to the


    doorstep and wait there for his return.


    Faith took a horrible turn when the king waspelled to marry one of his kind so that he would have


    an heir for his blood, since he has no other siblings. He had to agree for the betterment of his people


    and married another, Queen Aira. Enduring the stabbing pain in his heart, he never returned to his


    family in the forest hut. He shed tears every night, looking at the moon at the thought of his baby girl


    and love of his life, waiting at the doorstep for his return. Months went by when one day, the Queen


    saw the king¡¯s tear and confronted him. He confessed of his love and couldn¡¯t bare the pain of leaving


    them anymore. Queen Aira was a kind and sensitive woman, she understood her husband¡¯s pain and


    motioned him to go and bring his family in forest, back to their pce.

    The king ran as fast as he could with all his might to his beloved Elisa only to find an empty hut at the


    forest. He went to her vige, to her formal house to no avail. It is said that Elisa was 3 months


    pregnant when he left and died in the attempt to give birth to him. Unfortunately, the baby boy born


    dead as well. Being ashamed of her sin, her parents gave away his daughter to a far away family from


    south, erasing any trace of Elisa once and for all.


    The broken king went back to his pce, gave his crown to his Queen and left the pce to south, in


    attempt to search for his only daughter. Every night he will hover over trees, searching through


    doorsteps after doorsteps for his daughter, hoping she would be waiting for his return. Rumor has it that


    he never found her and till today, he hovers over tree, waiting for his daughter. And so, my little girl, if


    you step outside at night, he will take you and bring you back with him.

 CHAPTER 2

    CHAPTER 2


    The day they anticipated finally came and all five got ready to leave to Mount Manuka. It was a 3 hour


    drive from their home and by the time they arrived, it was alreadyte for them to hike up ande


    back, so they camped at the mountain foot, lit bonfire and sat talking untilte night. It was the ideal


    stress relive that the group needed but Selena kept feeling a sharp gaze on her and a creeping


    sensation to her skin. She constantly checked around her and even her friends, but she couldn¡¯t figure


    out why she felt a gaze on her. She brushed it away before settling down to sleep inside her camp.


    Inside the tent, she tossed and turned till 1 am in the morning. That¡¯s when it hit her. A mild perfume of


    vani that got stronger and stronger by minute. An addictive or rather aphrodisiac smell of vani


    mixed with orange. The stronger the smell, the more it stirred Selena hormone, making butterflies to


    spring from the bottom of her tummy. Her body heated up slowly. She sat up with knees clutched


    against her chest. She constantly rubbed her neck trying to knock the feeling off but without realizing it,


    her palms slowly moved down, aiming her breast. She wouldn¡¯t dare to touch her sensitive part,


    between her legs, as she is prefixed with the idea that it¡¯s going to hurt. Her body felt limp, and she


    seem to be in high, as if been drugged. The smell drove her crazy, rampaging her breath as she


    squeezed hard on her plum breast, letting out a soft moan while biting her lower lips. She can feel a


    wetness between her legs. What is this, what is happening? Confused and terrified of the sudden


    perfume in mid of mountain foot but at the same time, helpless to fight as her body continued betraying


    her. After what felt like eternity, the smell slowly faded away. Finally, Selena was at peace as she


    plopped down to the ground. She felt paralyzed and snoozed off very soon.


    ¡°Wake up sleepy head¡± a familiar voice brought Selena back to earth and she blinked her eye open. As


    soon as she was sober, she pulled herself to sitting position with a sharp gaze. Jeffry shook her


    shoulders again and again, but all Selena could hear is muffled rambling, as memory ofst night came


    clear to her.


    Was it just a wet dream? Yes¡­.YES it must be a wet dream¡­


    Her though calmed her a bit


    Wait!!! Can you smell in your dream?


    Back to worried state, she snapped her head at Jeffry which effectively made him quiet.


    ¡°Can you smell in your dream?¡±


    ¡°WHAT???¡±


    ¡°Can you smell in your dream, Jeffry?¡±


    ¡°I don¡¯t know, I never had smelt anything in my dreams. For fucking sake, I hardly get any dreams¡±


    Jeffry eximed


    ¡°What is going on here?¡± Jewel barged into the tent


    ¡°Can you smell in your dream?¡± both Jeffry and Selena spat out at the same time


    *************************************************************************************


    After packing up their belonging, cleaning up and having a simple breakfast, the group started their


    hiking up Mountain Manuka. Selena wasn¡¯t feeling herself and often slip into her thoughts aboutst


    night. Although her brain realize it was creepy, but her heart longed for the smell again and again,


    giving her no peace of mind. Her friends, however, didn¡¯t miss to make her smile. Halfway through the


    hiking, they heard water rustling sound and followed it to find a waterfall, amongrge rocks, falling


    from the sky or it seems to. All five exchanged a mischievous nce and they were soon all


    submerged into the water, sshing water against each other. Selena and Jeffry are qualified divers,


    given the ce they work and went down to the deepest pit ever so often. During one of these dives,


    something sparkled to Selena¡¯s eye, and she pushed herself towards it. It looks like a precious stone,


    beneath some pebbles. She dug it out and resurfaced. To her surprise, her friends were far behind her.


    She pulled up her hand to her face, as the water level was at her chin and frowned at the sight. It was a


    chain and locket. A silver locket attached to a leather strap. The locket was very peculiar. it was made


    out of a turquoise stone, only it shines through sun light. A crescent moon ced on the top of the


    stone and a pair of feathers, one short and one long, hanged dangling under the stone. She stared at


    the stone long enough to notice a gold pencil line running through it. She decided to keep it and swam


    up arge rock with it on her hands. She couldn¡¯t take her eyes off the rock until Oliver had to tap her


    shoulder to bring her out from the trans. She turned to look at the terrified faces of her friends. They


    seem to be looking at one direction and Selena followed their eyeline. Her eyes widened with fear of


    the sight in front of her and jerked back a few steps. A pack of wolfs standing on the opposite bank,


    growling and looking really angry at them. All five shuffled their steps to be closer when they noticed


    they were actually surrounded by predatory wolfs, as angry eyes red from all direction


    ¡°Tell me you can tame these dogs¡± Noah whispered to Selena


    ¡°They are not dogs. They are wolfs. Wild wolf in a pack. You know why they gather in a pack?¡± Selena


    voice low and husky


    Noah shook his head signaling ¡®NO¡¯


    ¡°To hunt. You know what they eat?¡± Noah trembled at the thought and swallowed audibly. The wolfs


    paced slowly towards them. They looked bigger than any regr wolfs but one stood out withrger


    body and leading them at front. Selena figured he must be the alpha, leader of the pack but she had no


    idea how a wolf bes alpha, by showing dominance or fight.


    ¡°Can you at least try?¡± Jeffry voice trembled.


    ¡°50 plus vicious wild wolf to be tamed in 5 minutes. I don¡¯t think so¡­¡±


    One of the wolves snapped with a growl. Eventhough, she said no, but she couldn¡¯t stop trying as it is


    theirst strike to survival. She automatically took a defense stand with crouching halfway down and


    left foot stretched in front of her. One hand in front of her while the other holding the ne


    somewhere near her ears. She calmed herself first and exhaled slowly. Then she focused out her


    calmness towards the assumed Alpha.


    T¨ºxt ? N?velDrama.Org.


    ¡°Easy boy¡­.easy¡­.¡± her voice was as soothing as a mother¡¯s voice, light as the flute through breeze.


    ''Calm down¡­. Calm down¡­ these are nothing but overgrown puppies¡­ and I am their master, petting


    and scratching their belly tofort them.''


    She started having effect on the wolf as some started shaking their head, being ufortable of


    obeying someone else then their alpha. Before she could attempt one more time, arge mass jumped


    from no where,nding perfectly on a taller rock with a thud, about 10 feet from Selena. A pitch ck


    wolf who is bigger than the rest of the pack, gold eye and silky coat that dances off coherence to the


    breeze, looking down at her with a calm look. He looked like the legal owner of the whole mountain


    ¡°Holy shit, that¡¯s the Alpha¡± Jeffry panicked next to Selena.


    Before Selena could interpret her surrounding, the ck wolf jumped down from the rock andnded a


    few feats away from Selena, spooking her as shends on her butt and her hands at the back


    supporting her. The wolf paced step by step with a serious look, effecting Selena¡¯s breath majorly. A


    swept of breeze from behind the wolf hit her in the face. That¡¯s it!!! The same perfume fromst night.


    Selena¡¯s eye widened even more at the dawn of realization, it was a wolf lingering around her tent.


    Only this time, she couldn¡¯t stop and savors the perfume as the terrifying beast is approaching her


    close. Her heart thumped as a racing horse in her chest when the wolf snout stopped so close, nose to


    nose. It moved softly to the left of her, sending Selena to a yelp as she shut tight her eyes and snapped


    her head to the other side. The wolf snuggled to her neck, gently rubbing its fur against her skin. He let


    out a cooing sound as he continued snuggling to her. After a few moments, he retrieved from Selena


    and turned to walk out of the ce, walking through the wolf pack. As if a remote control was switched


    on, all the wolf followed the Alpha silently. Within the next minute, the whole ce was back to its


    original serenity, leaving the friend speechless.


    They scrammed off the waterfall, not even bothered to change their wet dress, heading downhill. They


    ran as fast as they could downhill, missing a turn and lost their way back


    ¡°Are you sure this is the way?¡± Jewel questioned under her breathy voice.


    ¡°Of course, don¡¯t be silly. Just another 30 minutes,e on now¡± Noah urged all to keep walking. The


    sky was getting darker and darker by second and the image of wolfs lurking around the tent sent


    Selena¡¯s body shuddering


    ¡°Guys¡­wolfs are supposed to smell like wet dog or at least like Rocky, right?¡± Selena leaned by her


    butt on a tree trunk. All of them looked at her like they are witnessing a freakshow


    ¡°What???¡± Jeffry asked and soon there were random rambling from the friends, resulting Selena to


    shut her ears with her palms and close tight her eyes. When she opens again, Jeffry was looking up


    behind her in an amused look. Selena quickly turned around to see a few men walking towards them


    ¡°Are you guys lost?¡± a guy with beard and man bun asked towards Jeffry


    ¡°I think so. Can you guys please direct us to the right way?¡± Jeffry voiced out. A guy with ck hair and


    tall, masculine frame, crossed his arms across chest as he leaned sideways at the same tree trunk


    Selena is leaning on.


    ¡°We can but you won¡¯t make it downhill before night. If you want, you cane back to our ce. Just


    15 minutes hike uphill and you guys can climb down in the morning¡± what a relief. They agreed and


    followed them back to their ce.

 CHAPTER 3

    CHAPTER 3


    They boys were very friendly except for the ck haired one, called Zaden ck. He is leading the


    way, the further in front the group, constantly checking the surrounding. The one with golden brown


    beard and man bun is Orion. The blond with blue eye who looked way younger than the rest is Sitka.


    They engaged in conversation through out the walk. Orion seem to approach Selena more, trying to get


    her involved but Selena was way too tired to give lengthy feedback. From the corner of her eye, she


    could see Zaden looking over his shoulder every now and then towards them or precisely, her. She


    swept the thought away with excuses such as she is too tired to imagine such thing. After about 45


    minutes, they arrived at their ce which is a vige at a valley, surrounded by hills, hidden from


    civilization.


    ¡°THIS is your ce¡± Selena stressed on ¡®this¡¯ more then necessary, turning everyone¡¯s attention to her.


    She was dumbfound for a moment


    ¡°It¡¯s just that¡­.its so¡­.primitive¡± she finally found her tongue and Zaden¡¯s attention. He slowly walked


    to her through the now silent group, stopping too close, face to face with her. She had to look up in


    order to face him, since he was much taller than her.


    ¡°Don¡¯t judge a book by it¡¯s cover, baby girl¡± husky, deep voice with a hint of anger in his tone although


    his face showed nothing much, enough to send shiver down her spine. Selena made a few slow nods


    and pursed her lips shut. Her head down, looking at Zaden¡¯s shoe. When he turned around to walk


    away, she pped her forehead due to her stupidity, downgrading those who helped them at worst


    situation. They all silenced up till they reach the vige.


    ¡°Sweet dreams, chief¡±


    ¡°Good night, chief¡± everyone they came across wished Zaden and addressed him as ¡®chief¡¯.


    He must be someone important in thismunity. Aaargh¡­you and your fucking filthy mouth, Selena.


    Selena mentally pped her own face. A small girl came running towards them and Zaden immediately


    crouched down, ready to grab her and she pounced right into his arms, as he ended up carrying her.


    ¡°Zaden, Zaden. Mummy wants me to go to school. Could you please put some sense through her? Me


    still very little, me don¡¯t want to go to school¡± she earned a chuckle from Zaden, as well as the whole


    group. Trailing behind her, another tiny and thin woman followed, the mother of the small girl


    ¡°With that mouth, you should have been to school a long time ago. Tell you what, I promise to buy you


    one, I repeat, one chocte if you go to school¡± the little girl cheered up and nodded as she scrambled


    down Zaden¡¯s arm and headed to her mother but stopped within a few steps and turned around,


    focusing on Selena. She then hooked a finger and wiggled it calling Selena front. Selena point at her


    own self with wide eye to receive a nod from the girl. She walked quickly towards her and crouched


    down with one knee bent to almost touching the ground. The little girl observed her facial features for a


    moment and winked her eye with a cute smile. In return, Selena winked and tapped her nose gently


    with her index finger. The girl giggled loudly and pulled straight one of Selena¡¯s curly hair, then


    releasing it to make it bounce


    ¡°You are prewty¡­¡± her pronunciation wasn¡¯t spot on but made her point across and ran back to her


    mother. Selena remained in the position for a few second, smiling with a confusion before looking up at


    the cold face of Zaden. She quickly dropped her head to ground and swallow saliva down her throat


    before standing up and walking back to her friends. Sensing the gaze of Zaden following her, she


    grabbed the hem of Oliver¡¯s sleeve and hid herself behind him. Zaden shook his head and turned


    around, resuming his walk. A few minutester, they came to the end of vige and headed to a darker


    path which was hedged with roses and tulips, which ends at a row of tall trees. They walked pass the


    tree into a clearing which was lined with fire torch, heading towards a 3 story brick building. The outer


    view of the building was made out of red brick and lined with white wooden frame for the doors and


    window and white roofing, giving the house a vintage but clean look. Zaden didn¡¯t bother to invite


    Selena and the gang, he walked straight in and climbed the stair heading upstairs. Inside, the walls


    were stered and painted white with a firece, visible from the house entrance. 2 staircases starting


    from the sides of firece, curved and disappeared to a corridor, where rooms after rooms were lined


    up in a row, giving a hostel or dormitory like vibe. The neers looked at the ce in awe when


    Oliver finally spoke


    ¡°Not so primitive huh?¡±


    ************


    Sitka led the way, showing the friend to guest rooms. Jewel normally wouldn¡¯t fall asleep easily at new


    ce, so the girls decided to stay together in one room and boys in one room. The girls took a hot


    water shower and headed to bed. That night, Selena had the most breathtaking dream. A man whom


    features were blurry, white button up shirt and light blue jeans, standing with his back to Selena in a


    rose garden. Selena walked up to him as he turned to look at her. He held his palm out for Selena to


    take and she did, gently cing her palm in his. He then pulled her closer to him, sliding his other hand


    to hold the back of her waist. He ced Selena¡¯s palm over his chest and covered it with his, radiating


    warmth all over her. He then took his hands off Selena¡¯s hand and held her chin between his index and


    thumb, guiding her face to look directly into his eyes. She could tell that she is looking into his eyes, but


    no real eyes were seen in the dream. He then run his thumb across her bottom lips, slightly pulling it to


    open


    ¡°Mine¡­¡± a low, sensual and husky voice, imprinted deep into her mind. He then leans forward and


    kissed her lips ever so softly, sucking her lips while his head moved to sync his action. His hands are


    now behind her head and her back, as he enjoyed every bit of the kiss. Every single touch felt real to


    Selena, as if she was really living the moment. He pulled her roughly closer to him even more, if it is


    even possible, continued to enjoy her. In a snap, they were both in bed, naked under a silky ck


    duvet and sheets. The duvet was pulled up to her neck, hence hiding the man perfectly. He on top of


    her, his hands entwined with hers as he pinned them to her sides, sucking and nibbling her jawline,


    neck to ears to his pleasing, letting Selena moaning with pleasure. Her feet felt cramped as a tonne of


    different feeling exploded through her body. Then, from a far vision, the duvet started moving up and


    down, around midway of their body. She is aware that she is being prated, her virginity being


    invaded. But to her surprise, it did cause a bit of pain but at the same time a pleasure that ovees


    pain, as her eyes rolled behind her head. She grabbed on to the man¡¯s hair as he buried himself in the


    crooks of her neck. His groan and moan itself was enough to drive her crazy, added with her gasp for


    air at each thrust as her system refuse to breathe normally. A soft flute was ying in her mind, tying


    the whole situation to the dreand. Her mental image snapped again and now sheid on the man¡¯s


    hard robust chest, while he ran his fingers across her exposed arms. Her neck is flushed pink and she


    looked calmer than ever. Her fingers were circling on his abdomen when her eye caught a cue of who


    this man is. He was wearing a ne with leather strap and turquoise stone, finished with a pair of


    feathers dangling at the bottom. The ne that she found at the waterfall. Her eyes snapped open.


    It was early morning as she could hear the birds chipping. She checked her watch and indeed, it was


    7.30 am. She sat up on her bed, rubbed her hand over her face and then moved the palms to grab her


    head. She sat there in daze for a few more minutes, processing her dream. The chain was by her side


    on the bed, must have slipped out of her pocket in the midst of her sleep. She took it and held it in her


    fingers, as tenderly as possible


    ¡°Who are you? What are you doing to me?¡± she mumbled low to herself. She stood up and walked to


    the windowsill in her room, eyes still on the locket. She sat on the windowsill, pulling her legs to her


    chest, the hand holding the locket on her knees while she started at it with a frown. A low sigh escaped


    ¡°That is an exceptional piece¡± a voice snapped her out of her daze. She looked up and her light grey


    eyesnded on Zaden, who is now leaning on the window frame from outside with his arms crossed


    over his chest


    ¡°Excuse me¡± Selena asked with confusion. He pointed at the chain in her hand


    ¡°That is a precious stone, a special stone because itbines both turquoise and gold¡± he took the


    chain from her hand and wrapped it around her neck.


    ¡°Two odds from two world bind under 1 mass, it rarely happens but when it does, they shine together.¡±


    He then uses his whole index finger to flip out her hair between the chain, making it slide perfectly fit in


    her cleavage.


    ¡°It suits you and your eye¡± his lips curved to a corner forming an almost smile. If Selena wasn¡¯t this


    close, she could easily miss it. Without realizing, she was staring deep into his chocte eye and when


    she did realize, she snapped out of it and cleared her throat.


    ¡°Ummmm¡­ I¡¯m sorry about yesterday¡­about calling you¡± she got cut off


    ¡°Primitive cave man?¡± he raised his eyebrow at her


    ¡°I did not say cave man¡± clearly annoyed, but he just nodded


    ¡°Forgiven¡­ you want to join us for a morning run? That is if you civilized people have the stamina to


    run with us¡± her eyes wide opened to apany her jaw. She pointed her index finger at him and


    shook it like a warning


    ¡°You wait right here¡± she then stormed to the bathroom allocated for them, brushed her teeth and


    changed into another pair of sports attires, a ? Adidas legging and a loose, pink sleeveless shirt, hair


    high in ponytail and she strode out to the front door while mumbling curses through her breath. She


    was greeted by a group of people including Jeffry, Oliver and some other new faces. A woman who


    was bombshell, caramel skin tone and green eye stretched out her hand to Selena


    ¡°Hi, Make¡±


    ¡°Selena¡± she shook hands with her. Then 2 more guys followed her introducing themselves as Sultan


    and Xavier. Orion and Sitka were also there, already stretched and ready to go


    ¡°Shall we¡± Orion motioned to begin, and they started with fast walking, to jogging and then to running.


    Within 30 minutes of running Jeffry already stopped, holding his stomach as he bended down,


    motioning that he gave up. The group let out a low chuckle, except for Selena who gave him a death


    re as they resumed running. She was able to keep up with them until they arrived at the mountain


    peak, where the whole valley with mountain peaks around them came visible. Selena stopped at the


    view and walked slowly closer to cliff edge, looking down from it. The vast blue sky over a nket of


    green trees and mountains with a speck of humanity evident at the middle of the valley.


    ¡°That¡¯s not the only vige. We have another 2 over the mountains¡± Orion stood beside her as he


    exined.


    ¡°How did you guys manage to establish anything here? Electricity, water supply, food and medical


    attention. And wow, the house that we were in yesterday. I don¡¯t mean to offend, by the way. Just


    curious¡± Selena


    ¡°We were not always so well equipped. It takes a lot of effort and vision. Ever since Zaden took over,


    he made it possible. There is a sr station and wind turbines enough to supply us with electricity year


    round, but we still try to keep it to minimal. We have a farm for each vige where a group of people


    work to produce food. And there is ake right between those hills, you see?¡± he leaned his head


    closer to Selena as he pointed to her left. Selena narrowed her eye and nodded


    This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    ¡°All the vige residents are free to go fishing or swimming anytime they wish¡±


    ¡°And in terms of education?¡±


    ¡°We have a preschool and primary here. For secondary and higher studies, the kids have to go out of


    this mountain and survive on their own. They will return weekly once, and the chief will go visit them


    once a week or so¡± Selena remained silent for a while before Orion motioned towards the others who


    are now at least 300meters away from them. They turned to walk towards them.


    ¡°How did you guys get funds for such big projects? I mean, wind turbines or sr system are not


    cheap¡± Selena tilted her head to side, focusing on Orion


    ¡°Some of us work in the city, some of us own properties which is rented out in the city. And chief here,


    has a few businesses in city, managed by humans¡±


    ¡°Humans???¡± Selena went nk


    ¡°I mean¡­ I meant to say friends¡± Orion stuttered before clearing himself. Selena swept it away as


    mistaken wordings.


    Her inquiries about their lifestyle went on until they reached home. They seem to be self-sustaining and


    well equipped. When they arrived at the house, all the others that went for a jog and Selena¡¯s friends


    were gathered up at the entry and she slide to sit next to Oliver.


    ¡°We have a¡­.suggestion. Make offered us to stay for the whole week, we have no issue. But Jeffry


    and you¡­¡± he shrugged his shoulders


    ¡°Then Jeffry and I will go back, you guys can return home whenever you wish¡± Selena shrugged back


    ¡°What if Jeffry wants to stay too?¡± Zaden interrupted from behind the group, earning everyone¡¯s


    attention but his eye focused on Jeffry with a re, as if he is threatening him. Jeffry threw a hopeful


    look at Selena as he pouted his lips, making her threw her hand in the air


    ¡°Jeffry, Matron is going to kill us. Unlike you, I wish to work there for a long time, possibly the rest of my


    life¡±


    ¡°We can ask her¡­if she says no, then we two can go back, deal?¡± Jeffry stretched out his thumb. After


    some thinking,


    ¡°Fine¡± Selena pped his hands away.


    ¡°But there is no phone connection here, we have to go to mountain foot to make call. I will get the four


    wheeler and we can go in 15minutes¡± Orion said as he left those two speechless.


    They got to mountain foot on the other side, made a phone call and to their surprise, Matron agreed.


    They then proceed to inform their family about their extension in stay, did some shopping since they


    didn¡¯t pack for the whole week and went back to brick house. It had turned dark when they arrived and


    it looks like the whole vige had gathered there, with bonfires and barbeques, with a long row of table


    just behind the tall tree hedging. Each house contributed a dish to the table, and it was an extravagant


    buffet, popping out the friend¡¯s eye. They felt bad not being able to contribute anything but Xavier and


    Make managed to coax them.


    ¡°Come, eat something¡± Orion held Selena¡¯s hand as he pulled her to the table and all others followed


    them. Noah was a bit overwhelmed and got carried away with the delicious food choices. The others


    also treated themselves to a hefty meal except for Selena. She took a small piece of tuna sandwich, I


    slice of chicken strip and adle full of fruit sd. They sat by the bonfire, on a rock. Zaden walked out


    of the house as he greeted some people and walked to the table and got himself some food. He then


    searched around for his team and walked to them. He sat opposite of Selena, next to Orion.


    ¡° Is there any special asion today? Any reason for this gathering?¡± Noah asked


    ¡°Yeah, it¡¯s dinner time¡± the friends exchanged look to Xavier¡¯s reply


    ¡°You mean this is how you guys eat every day?¡± Noah, with a narrowed eye and raised eyebrow


    ¡°Yeah¡± Xavier, Sitka and Orion answered unanimously together.


    ¡°It¡¯s how primitive we are¡± Zaden¡¯s statement made Selena choked on her food as she started


    coughing and Orion stormed near to hand over a ss of water as he tapped on her back.


    ¡°I said I¡¯m fucking sorry¡± she burst at Zaden when she was done coughing. At this point she started


    hating him.


    ¡° I didn¡¯t say that out loud¡± Zaden said in confusion only to be walked out by Selena.

 CHAPTER 4

    CHAPTER 4


    The dreams invaded Selena¡¯s mind again. This time, it took ce at the waterfall where they were


    cornered by wolfs except there were a swing hanging not too far from the waterfall and Selena was


    swinging on it. White chiffon dress and long flowing hair and a heart stealing smile on her face as she


    looked at the waterfall. The same man was standing behind her, pushing her swing. The same soft and


    soothing flute sound came along the wind. Itsted for a long time. Then the swing stopped by a pair of


    hands and the hands traveled up to cup her chin from behind and lifted her head up. A soft lip nted a


    kiss on her forehead.


    ¡°Mine¡­¡± Selena chuckled with the repeated word. She stood up from the swing, walked around to him


    andid her head on his chest. As a reflex, he hugged her over her arms, one hand over the back of


    her head, ying with hair strands.


    ¡°Are you going to say that every night to me? ¡± Selena voice was low and pitiful


    ¡°Hmm mmm¡± he nodded


    ¡°When are you going to show me yourself?¡± Selena looked up to his eye, a chocte eye that is not


    too dark or too light, somewhere like bronze. Bedazzled by the eye, she kept looking deep into it,


    casting away self-awareness, submitting herselfpletely to it.


    ¡°When the timees, my love¡­¡± he held her chin to kiss but Selena jerked back, biting her lower lip


    with a smirk at the corner. She parted from him and walked towards the waterfall. There she looked


    back to him while unzipping her dress from behind. She stripped to two piece and slowly walked into


    the cold water. When she was settled, she ran a palmful of water over her face. A pair ofrge hand are


    holding her shoulders from behind. She turned around to face him, awkwardly blushing as he leaned


    forward to kiss her by the lips. The familiar warmth engulfed, blinding her. He yfully bites her lower


    lips making her gasp. She could feel a smirk against her skin. It was a trick to make her open her lips.


    Taking the opportunity, he surged his tongue into the now slightly ajar mouth. His tongue exploring


    every inch of her mouth, making her shrug her shoulder to withhold the tickling sensation it created.


    She woke up again to birds chipping but this time it was a bitte. Around 8.30 am. She recalled the


    eye from the dream. Is he revealing bits and pieces of himself? Is he real and bound to show up


    sometime soon? Or is it some sort of subconscious memory resurfacing to torture her? She had no


    definite answer but one thing for sure, she is having her first crush with a man, from her dreams. She


    covered her face with her palm and smiled to the thought.


    After she got ready, she came out of the room with Jewel. They could only find Bohemian themes


    dresses at the mountain foot. Selena was wearing a spaghetti strap, colorful full length dress and her


    hair was loose. They were busy chatting when she looked up to see Orion leaned against wall, hint of


    admiration in his chocte eyes with a gentle smile on his lips. Wait, chocte eyes? Selena just


    noticed that Orion also has chocte eyes. Selena¡¯s facial expression changed to a dead pan. Her


    eyes kept darting between his two eyes in doubt. Then he waved his palm in front of her face, making


    her snap from daze.


    ¡°Let¡¯s go for breakfast¡± her guided them further deep behind the house where an opening with thick


    wooden frame led them to a vast dining hall. An elegant woman with straight silver hair sat on the


    furthest end of the wooden dining table. Orion walked straight to her. She was wearing a light blue long


    shapeless dress.


    ¡°Selena, I would like to meet Mrs Ruth ck, Zaden¡¯s beloved mother¡±. She stood up as she stretches


    her hand to shake Selena¡¯s. She has the aura of a queen and anyone would feel small next to her.


    ¡°Nice to meet you mam, I¡¯m Selena and this is my friend Jewel¡± she pointed at the thin figure next to


    her


    ¡°Please, just Ruth. Zaden briefed me about you and your friends but I didn¡¯t expect for such a dazzling


    beauty. Please have a sit¡± she said with absolute politeness. Orion pulled a chair on her left to sit while


    Selena pulled the next one beside him


    ¡°Orion, darling. Would you mind moving to the other chairs? I would like for Selena to sit here¡± Orion


    scowled at her as he moved behind Selena and Selena moved forward with hesitation. Ruth slowly


    blinked at her as encouragement, and she sat down there.


    ¡°Is he angry?¡± Selena whispered to Ruth


    ¡°Oh, dear. Ignore him. He is just too jealous but willpletely forget it once the blueberry muffin is


    served¡± herment made Selena chuckle and Ruth joined her. Zaden walked from the doorway


    opening into the room, heads down while scratching his eyebrow with his thumb nail. He froze for a


    moment, seeing the coziness between Selena and his mother, Ruth.


    ¡° There is my handsome prince charming¡± Ruth acknowledged his presence, earning a head turn from


    Selena to his direction. He focused on Selena with a cold expression as he walked to sit opposite her


    or to the right of Ruth. The breakfast was served, and Selena ate while shuffling in her seat as she felt


    ufortable from Zaden¡¯s sharp gaze.


    ¡®Is he really looking at me or am I imagining it? Only one way to find out¡¯


    After consulting her inner voice, she looked up from her te to see Zaden¡¯s chocte eyes staring


    directly at her and didn¡¯t wince even after being caught by Selena. Wait, what? Another chocte eyes.


    It must be amon eye color around here or she is just being obsessed with mid tone, bronzy


    chocte eye. She brushed it off.


    Orion, Jewel and Selena walked side by side with Orion in the middle towards outside


    ¡°Orion, can you bring us to theke, the one that anyone can go fishing for dinner?¡± before Orion could


    answer that, Jeffry grabbed their shoulders, 1 hand on Selena and another on Orion¡¯s shoulder,


    peeping through them


    ¡°And some fishing supplies?¡± he said with excitement. Oliver peeped on Orion¡¯s other shoulder,


    nodding excitedly. That¡¯s settles it, they are going fishing.


    Oliver whipped his fishing rod, throwing the cord to the water. Itnded quite far away, and he seems to


    know what he is doing. Selena decided to cook some fish the way she knows, to dinner today, since


    she felt really bad not contributing yesterday. The girls took and went into the water, missing their


    bnce and falling to the water once in a while but getting back up to their feet,ughing at their failure


    and helplessness as they throw their into water. Orion and Sultan sat on the bank, observing them.


    Noah decided to sit back and enjoy the view behind Oliver and Jeffry. Orion¡¯s eye focused on Selena


    more than it should, tracing every curve that is visible due to wet dress now.


    ¡°You like her, don¡¯t you?¡± Sultan¡¯s gravelly voice shook him a little as he snapped his head to him.


    When he realizes he had been admiring her all this time, he scrunched his nose as he rubbed his hand


    behind his neck, turning his face to the opposite side.


    ¡°You know it¡¯s gonna beplicated, right? I mean, she is from city and probably don¡¯t want to stay


    here¡± Orion just nodded as he pursed his lips. Then he let out a sigh of frustration


    ¡°I can¡¯t help it. She is exceptionally beautiful from any other girls I have dated before¡± Orion said. After


    thinking for a while, Sultan replied


    ¡°Maybe if you get her to love you back enough, she will stay¡± Orion turned to him as he gave him a fist


    bump. He then stood up and walked into the water to teach the girls how it¡¯s actually done. He bent


    down and held his hand ready. A fish came along and he remained as still as possible. When it was the


    right time, he grabbed the fish as he wrestled to keep it contained. His muscles on his arm flexed but


    he managed to catch one with bare hands.


    ¡°Now, your turn¡± Selena bent down in front of Orion, giving a clear view of her back. Orion¡¯s eye quickly


    darted indecently at her back. Jewel, Oliver and Jeffry caught his act too, ncing over each other with


    million questions. A ratherrge fish came along to Selena¡¯s feet. She grabbed it and pulled it out of the


    water but she didn¡¯t have enough grit to hold it, as the fish started slipping. Orion intervein and tried to


    grab the fish but Selena was able to hug the fish to her body, the fish with all its strength still threaten to


    jump out. Without realizing it, Selena was losing her bnce due to the fish¡¯s force, but Orion stretched


    his arms around her and pulled her to his chest with the fish in between. Selena who was so focused


    on the fish didn¡¯t actually notice Orion¡¯s arms around her but with this much of close proximity, Orion¡¯s


    eye darted at her lips that is smiling at the struggling fish, her squinting eyes when the fish sprinkled


    some water. Selena¡¯s friend felt awkward as they exchanged confused and rather rmed expression.


    Back at the brick house, Selena got a bath and changed into a dress and headed to the kitchen. On the


    way, she came across Zaden and nodded at him with a smile.


    ¡°Hi¡± she motioned to thedies at the kitchen.


    ¡°I need to cook some fish, can I know where the spices are?¡± they all pointed simultaneously towards a


    cab. The fish was already cleaned and ready as Selena begin cooking. Soon, one by one, the


    ladies cleared the space as their work is done. Selena carefully arranged the fish slice on to a grill pan,


    turning them once in a while, fully focused on cooking. She turned away for a moment to slice lemons


    when Zaden¡¯s voice and a fish sttering came coherently, making her jump out of scare, cutting


    herself in the process. Zaden quickly moved from her back to grab her hand in panic, spreading a


    warmth to her hand, stirring something in her tummy. Her soft index finger is now oozing with blood.


    Zaden looked around for tissue but he couldn¡¯t find anything. He then focused back on the finger which


    is dripping blood now. He bent his head slightly to grab the finger between his lips and sucked at it


    hard. It hurt so much that Selena started jumping low at her spot as she wringed the other hand. Zaden


    let go for a minute to observe the wound


    ¡°Hold still for a minute¡± he ordered making her stiff at her spot. He inspected her wound by touching it


    and it started bleeding again. He quickly bends down to suck the finger. She shut tight her eye and


    sucked in air, making a hollow at her throat as she ced her other hands against his chest, ready to


    push him away if it gets unbearable. The sensation of his lips on her skin amplified to thousand times


    when she closed her eye and practically all her senses. Soothing warmth with a slight movement of his


    tongue once in a while. He seemed to be concentrated on her cut and nothing else. When he let go,


    her heart whimpered at the loss of contact, and she blinked open her eye. He blew slightly on the cut


    ¡°Ok the bleeding stopped. Come¡± he instructed as he pulled her by her cut hand. Selena managed to


    switch off stove before being dragged away.


    ¡°Sit¡± his voice was low and calm but then he manages to execute such dominance that Selena followed


    without second thought. She climbed up a bar stool which made her taller than she is. Zaden grabbed


    a first aid box under the sink and dabbed some alcohol on sponge before cleaning her cut, earning a


    hiss from her. He red at her face


    ¡°Do you always scare that easily?¡±


    ¡°Not always. Only when someone sneaks up to me¡± sensing the sarcasm in her tone, he pressed on


    the cut a little bit harder, making her pull her hand away with a ¡®arghhh¡¯ and started blowing onto her


    cut. He felt softened and sorry for her and grabbed her hand softly, pulled it towards him again as he


    continued his treatment, applying antibiotic and wrapping it with bandage


    ¡°Now what?¡± he thrust his hands into his pocket before questioning her


    ¡°What?¡± Selena asked in confusion. He nudged his head towards the stove. Selena realized she left


    the cooking in midway. She slides off the stool


    ¡°Thanks¡± she said as she walked back to the stove.


    ¡°Do you need any help?¡± the dark hair, masculine figure now in ck V-neck t-shirt and light blue jeans


    followed her slowly from behind, hands still thrust into pocket.


    ¡°It¡¯s ok. The cut is not that bad¡± Selena switched on the stove. Zaden came to stand next to her,


    earning a confused look as she scanned him from top to bottom back to top. A knife in his hand, slicing


    lemons now. She chooses to keep quiet and continue with her chore.


    ¡°Have you cooked before?¡± Zaden asked not moving his eye from cutting board


    ¡°asionally¡± She replied simply. A moment of silence followed before Selena decide to ask a


    question that has been tumbling in her for a while now


    ¡°Can I ask you something?¡± he nodded


    ¡°Aren¡¯t you guys afraid of wo¡­¡± she paused and decided to use a different word ¡°Wildlife around


    here?¡± he frowned


    ¡°We have never been attacked before. Plus, wildlife tends to keep away from a spot that has signs of


    frequent movements¡± he answered casually as he finished slicing lemon.


    ¡°What¡¯s next¡± understanding he wanted to cut more, she pointed at a basket of asparagus by her other


    side as her eyes remained on the fish. He reached to the basket, hands crossing her back as his nose


    came close to her neck. He bit his lower lip at the sweet scent she is emitting. He managed to grab the


    basket and return to his original position.


    ¡°Nice perfume¡± he said in a low and husky voice. Her eye looked up to his face and then back to the


    fish


    ¡°Thanks¡­¡± and with that a conversation started rolling. Basic information exchanged. It seems like he


    did study Business Management, he likes sports and not so interested in asparagus


    ¡°You should try some, you know, being open to possibilities¡± she said as she was pan frying asparagus


    with some olive oil, garlic ginger,oregano and salt. He scrunched his face in disgust, making her let out


    a low sigh.


    ¡°Sit¡± she pointed her spat to the kitchen counter, as she picked up a small te and ced a few


    asparagus on it. He did as told with his arms crossed his chest. She handed him the te as he picked


    an asparagus, ate it and looked up, ring at her. She rolled her eye and picked up a piece of fish with


    cooking tongs and ced it on his te. He broke a piece with his finger and was about to eat it, when


    she stopped him


    ¡°What are you doing?¡± she shook her head irritatedly. She then squeezed some lemon on top of the


    fish and ced a green, creamy sauce on the side of fish, took a fork, forked an asparagus and then a


    small piece of fish, then slightly dipping the fish in the sauce, before bringing it near his mouth, feeding


    him. He took a chewed before closing his eye and moaning softly, throwing his head up.


    ¡°Good huh?¡± she wiggled her eyebrow at him sarcastically with a smile. Her hands next to his thigh, on


    the counter. He suddenly dropped his head, nose to nose with her


    ¡°Better then sex¡± he said low making herugh.


    ¡°And that¡¯s how, chief, you eat asparagus¡± she moved away from him. He continued cutting into the fish


    while Selena went back to cooking


    ¡°Anyway, from what I have heard, nothing is better than sex¡± she said while flipping the fish. Zaden


    frowned in confusion


    ¡°Wait¡­what? From what you HEARD?¡± he exaggerated the word heard. She nodded not paying


    attention to him or possibly to what she is saying.


    ¡°Selena, are you a virgin?¡± she froze for a moment, thinking carefully her next reaction. She shrugged


    ¡°Oh my god¡­.¡± He eximed with aughter.


    ¡°Ofhh shut up¡± she threw a re at him and proceed to boil water in a small pan. Zaden¡¯sughter


    slowly faded. They continued conversing, while she kept cing asparagus or fried potato wedges, or


    bacon on his te. He didn¡¯t stop her and just kept talking while eating. In a few moments, she took


    something white from the boiling water, strained for a few second and ced it on his te, seasoning


    it with some salt and pepper


    ¡°What is this?¡± Zaden


    ¡°Poached egg¡± Selena. He cut into the egg and took a bite with good amount of yolk and enjoyed every


    bit of it


    ¡°Can I get another one of this?¡± Selena obliged and made him another one. By the time he was done,


    her friends came along, mentioning that the tables are all set and so did Selena with her fish. They then


    carried all the trays she prepared to the buffet table before each took a te and proceed to eat,


    except for Zaden. He excused himself to check on his vigers. Selena was thest one to leave the


    buffet when she was stopped by Orion and Make. Make was carrying a baby girl in her arms,


    possibly 6 months or so. Selena soon learned that the baby was her own and Orion and Make are


    siblings. When the baby became ufortable, she excused herself to feed her, leaving behind Orion


    and Selena alone.


    ¡°So¡­love the fish¡± Selena smiled at hisment and before she could thank him, they heard Jeffry¡¯s


    voice from far. He was waving his hand, motioning Selena toe to them at an almost dark corner.


    Without thinking much, Selena excused herself and walked to them


    ¡°Can you keep your distance from him, please¡± Jeffry whispered at her ears once she was close


    enough. She rolled her eye


    ¡°What? I don¡¯t like his vibe and the way he looks at you¡± the others looked at her with concern as if they


    agree with him. Selena just shook her head with a smile


    ¡°Come on Selena, we don¡¯t want our Bambi to be broken when we return¡± he said that out a bit loud


    T¨ºxt ? N?velDrama.Org.


    ¡°Who is Bambi?¡± It was Zaden, standing behind Jeffry and Selena.


    ¡°Hmm¡­ that¡¯s Selena¡¯s nickname back home. Ouch!!!¡± Jeffry just got kicked on the foot by Selena.


    ¡°Why Bambi?¡± Sitka joined him from god knows where


    ¡°Because she can melt any animal with her eye. She will tame them, make them do what she wants


    just via her eye¡± Noah exined


    ¡°Any animal?¡± Now it was Xavier. Curious of who else was there, Selena turned her head to see the


    whole ¡®Zaden team¡¯ behind her.


    ¡°I don¡¯t see you eating, Chief¡± Noah asked with concern


    ¡°Hmm¡­I¡¯m full. By the way, I don¡¯t see any poached egg at the buffet. You forgot them or they finished


    up too fast?¡± Selena and her friends exchanged a confused look


    ¡°I didn¡¯t make any for the vigers, only two for you¡± Selena said. A tingle creeped up his neck, for no


    reason, he felt happy that she cooked personally for him. The bacon wasn¡¯t on the table, so she must


    have cooked that for him to. A tiny smile bloomed on his lips


    ¡°That¡¯s too bad. Zaden told us it was great, we were hoping to get a bite¡± Sultan finally spoke


    ¡° I can make some in the morning, for breakfast¡± she answered with hesitation and they all


    agreed.

 CHAPTER 5

    CHAPTER 5


    After the dinner, Selena and Jewel walked to their room to sleep. Although it sounds silly, Selena was


    excited. She was eager to meet her dream boyfriend and maybe he would reveal more of himself


    tonight. But to her surprise, the dream begins with Selena being carried on his shoulder while she was


    punching and kicking him with all her might. In a blink, he threw her onto a bed with ck silk sheet.


    Her hair flung above her. In another blink, he is ripping of her panties, thest piece of clothing that she


    was wearing, making herpletely naked. The next blink, his hand with bulging muscle was fighting


    Selena¡¯s as he tied her to the bed. In another blink, Selena was looking at him with a. terrified


    expression, her mouth taped with a grey tape. He caressed her cheeks making her snap her head,


    repelling him for a second. Her eye moved slowly from her side to in front of her, probably following his


    move. She felt him between her thighs, licking her sensitive spot, softly at first but then it took a wild


    turn, like an animal drinking water from a pond with his tongue,pping roughly over her slit and knub.


    She let out moans after moans at each stroke and warm liquid kept flowing out of her. Her legs begin


    trembling at the repeated sensation her body is going through and her back arched high. He slides a


    hand up to grab one of her perfectly shaped breasts, pinching its peek with his thumb and index finger.


    The feeling that aroused from that was unbearable for Selena, yet she could do nothing to push it


    away. She started writhing and snapping her head, trying to endure the extreme sensation that she


    never though a body could feel. He doesn¡¯t show any sign of stopping as he grabbed a thigh, locking


    Selena still while his tongue prated her, again and again. A sensation builds up at her lower


    abdomen and then it came bursting out. It felt forever when he finally stopped and straddled her chest.


    She could see from his behind, where his manhood is not visible, but his butt was. He peeled off the


    tape on her mouth making her winch a little. He then ran his thumb across her lips, stretching and


    pulling it slightly. She thought he had calmed down but then he grabbed the back of her neck and came


    closer as her eye widened and she begin kicking her legs behind him, as he thrust his now hard


    manhood into her warm lips. He seems to have no sympathy towards her as he grabbed her head with


    both his hands and started thrusting even faster, making her gag and tears flowing down her face


    constantly. Then he moved back to her thighs, thrusting her sensitive part with now possibly, bigger


    erection. She screamed out loud as he violently moved against her, faster and faster. It felt like it has


    been going on for a long time before he leaned forward to her neck as he kept prating her. He


    latched on her neck viciously


    ¡°Mine¡­¡± his husky voice mixed with a groan was now terror to her. He traveled down to her breasts


    and licked at them from bottom to peak, as his assault down there continued. Another build up began


    and soon, it burst flowing out of her. At the same time, he yelped a bit as his seed filled her from inside


    and he retreat. Selena could hear his heavy breathing by her ears


    ¡°One more time?¡± Selena snapped her eye open wide as his manhood begin erecting again, gently


    grazing her thigh.


    ¡°Selena¡­Selena¡± Jewel¡¯s voice woke her up from dream. She scrammed to sit on her bed, panting for


    breath.


    ¡°You are trembling, what happen?¡± Jewel asked with concern


    ¡°Nothing, bad dream¡± Selena still panting for air as she wipes off the sweat from her forehead


    ¡°Doesn¡¯t look that bad to me¡± Jewel pointed her eye to Selena¡¯s leg, and she also darted at that spot


    only to see a pool of liquid on the bed under her butt. They then exchanged looks. Jewel grabbed her


    upper arms, pulling her to stand.


    ¡°Come on, let¡¯s get you cleaned up. It¡¯s ok to get wet dream, forget about it¡± she apanied the now


    limp Selena to washroom. She had trouble falling back to sleep after that


    In the morning, as promised, she prepped breakfast for around 15 people and they came one by one to


    help her arrange stuff outdoor, on grass, sort of like a pic, only closer to home. Zaden didn¡¯te


    and when questioned, Orion told her that he had to go to city for a meeting.


    ¡°If you guys don¡¯t have anything nned today, maybe you all cane with us to the east side farm.


    We are going on a regr visit¡± Orion suggested and they all agreed


    It was under a hill and the hill was actually cut into terrace to make more space for farm. They had


    cows, chickens, ducks, pigs and goats, running freely around the farm.


    ¡°Good morning, Beta¡± one of the farmers came forward wishing Make. His eyes then widened


    before he reconstructed his sentence


    ¡°I mean, morning Mrs.Beta¡± he pretended that Make¡¯s surname is beta. They then splitted up to


    parts of farm. Orion followed Selena to pluck beans.


    ¡°You seem a bit down today?¡± Orion asked. After a bit of hesitation, Selena replied him


    ¡° I didn¡¯t sleep wellst night. A bit tired, that all¡± they kept talking until they are done plucking all beans


    and he guided Selena into choosing which beans to pluck and so on. When they are done, they had 4


    big basket of green beans which some workers came and took.


    ¡°Come¡± Orion gestured as he walked to somewhere secluded, behind the farm. He turned to a corner


    and disappeared. Selena also took the turn to find a flower garden, filled with colorful butterflies and


    bees. Orion was settling down by a tree and patted the ground, suggesting Selena to sit. She did so.


    They didn¡¯t talk, instead just observed the butterflies. After a while, he stretched out his legs t,


    wrapped his arms around Selena¡¯s shoulder bringing her down toy on hisp


    ¡°What are you doing?¡± Selena was shocked


    ¡°You look tired, go to sleep. I don¡¯t have afortable pillow here, so¡­just sleep¡± Orion said in a low


    and soft voice. Selena tried to get up


    ¡°No Orion, it¡¯s ok¡± but he pushed her back down


    ¡°Oh,e on¡­You wouldn¡¯t have said NO if it was Jeffry, or Oliver or Noah, right? Just imagine their


    face over here. Problem solved¡± He circled his index finger over his face. Selena pursed her lips and


    turned to face the butterflies,ying on Orion¡¯sp.


    ¡°We used toe here often when we were kids¡­Zaden, Make and me¡­¡±


    ¡°Hmm mmm¡­¡± Selena. He slowly ran his hand through her hair, ying with each lock of curls and


    before she realized it, she fell asleep. It must have been at least an hour before Orion woke her up, it


    was passed lunch time and they are going back home. She pulled herself up to sitting and stretched


    her arms above her head, dropped her hand, looking back at Orion who is now rubbing his eyes. He


    must have fallen asleep as well. They walked back to farms house where the other should be, but


    Orion purposedly slowed down his steps. He didn¡¯t want these moments to pass away this fast. He


    thrust his hand inside his pocket and shrug his shoulder, walking side by side with Selena. He blushed


    pink like a teenager talking to his crush. Selena frowned at him and narrowed her eye


    ¡°Did you get bitten by insect or something? Your face is pink, no wait, red¡± not knowing what to answer,


    he rubbed his hand against his neck


    ¡°Maybe¡±


    A simple lunch was served at the farmhouse. After that, they spent a few more hours there, talking and


    ying games before heading back to brick house. It was about 5pm when they arrived and the sun


    was hot. They were sweating profusely, so Selena had pulled her hair up into a messy bun. At the


    entrance, she saw Zaden, all dress in ck suit, apanied by an elderly man. They were


    discussing something that they didn¡¯t notice the other approaching from behind.


    ¡°Hey Chief¡± Selena greeted Zaden from behind, as she doesn¡¯t want to embarrass him in front of the


    elder man. He looked over his shoulder and turned around when he realized Selena was there. He


    forced a smile to her. Then he looked at the elder manT¨ºxt ? N?velDrama.Org.


    ¡°Grandpa Kai, this is Selena. Selena this is Grandpa Kai¡± Grandpa Kai¡¯s eye widened in astonishment


    as he stretched out his hand to greet her and Selena shook it


    ¡°You are a Samrat?!?¡± it was half question and half answer. Selena face turned confused as she


    blinked a few times, turned to Zaden


    ¡°What¡¯s a Samrat?¡± a pin drop silence engulfs the whole area, only wind whoosing through


    them.

    ¡°Grandpa, why would you ask such a question?¡± Zaden asked his grandpa


    ¡°She has the marking, see¡± he pointed at Selena¡¯s moon tattoo on her neck, earning aughter from all


    of them except for Selena, who put on a serious face


    ¡°Grandpa, anyone with money and guts can get a moon tattoo¡± Zaden sarcastically answered his


    grandpa


    ¡°Son, I might be old, but I¡¯m not stupid. True, anyone with money and guts can get a moon tattoo even


    in their butt but this is not a tattoo¡± he turned to face Selena ¡°Is it, child?¡± everyone¡¯s eye is now


    focused on Selena. She dropped her head and answered slowly, almost inaudible to the other people


    ¡°No¡­¡± Zaden looked at her with a raised eyebrow.


    ¡°Mind to exin, baby girl?¡± Finally, Zaden spoke


    ¡°It is a birth mark. My grandma told me they started as a dot and developed over the years. We had


    been to the doctors, but he couldn¡¯t put his finger on it. We finally settled for a simple birthmark, you


    know, just like strawberry birthmark only mine didn¡¯t fade away and about a few years ago, it stopped


    developing more¡± she shrugs her shoulder. Grandpa Kai crossed his arms over his chest and gave a


    smug smile to Zaden, who is now eyes wide and jaw dropped.


    ¡°I can read aura, Selena. Some people omit aura from their body or heart, some from their head but


    yours concentrated on your neck or to be exact your marking, connecting both body and mind.


    Meaning, you are not only a Samrat, but you must have had some sort of ability to control other body


    and mind¡± Grandpa Kai exined with a cool expression and hands inside his pocket.


    ¡°What is a Samrat?¡± Selena eximed in frustration. Zaden stretched his hands and held her hands


    and guide her into the house. For the first time, she is brought to the seconds floor


    ¡°We need some privacy¡± as he motions everyone to leave except for Grandpa Kai. They walked to a


    room at the end of the corridor, entering a spacious room,plete with bathroom, a mini fridge with a


    bar counter. Sofas with round table scatters here and there, high bar stool arranged along the bar


    counter. There was also a wall with bookshelf, filled with books from different topics. It looks more like a


    communal room. Zaden walked Selena to a single, green velvet sofa at a corner, without letting go of


    her hand. Once she is seated, Grandpa Kai and Zaden looked at each other worriedly before Zaden


    excused themselves and went a bit further, discussing something seriously. They returned back to


    Selena, Grandpa Kai pushed Zaden to the front. He exhaled sharp looking at the floor and took off his


    jacket, folded his sleeve up to his elbow. He then looked straight into Selena¡¯s eye and sighed softly as


    he crouched down in the most stylish way in front of Selena, held her hand that is on herp now,


    making her feel like a child. Grandpa Kai was standing right behind him


    ¡°See, Samrat is an ancient bloodline of kings with special ability¡± he stopped making Grandpa Kai clear


    his throat as a warning to never back off.


    ¡°Kings of¡­.wolfs¡­werewolves precisely¡± he said with much hesitation and doubts. Selena inhaled


    sharply before tilting her head slightly to the side. She narrowed her eye ¡°What was that again?¡±


    ¡°Bloodline, I mean Samrat is the surname of a werewolf king¡¯s bloodline¡± Zaden patiently exin again


    to her


    ¡°Zaden¡­ I think I was hallucinating a few second ago. Did you say werewolf?¡± Grandpa Kai and Zaden


    nodded frantically


    ¡°Werewolf as in half human and half wolf¡± they nodded again.


    ¡°Did you say he was a king?¡± again, they nodded the same way


    ¡°He had special abilities?¡± they nodded again


    ¡°And I am a descendent of that bloodline?¡± they nodded again


    ¡°Are you trying to say that I am a werewolf?¡± her eyes are now ring at those two and they nodded


    slowly then before with pursed lip. Selena spring to standing position, so did Zaden


    ¡°Are you crazy? Did you do drugs or something¡± she stepped slowly towards him as he paced


    backwards


    ¡°Do I look like a wolf to you? Or do you think I wouldn¡¯t have noticed if my parents were wolfs?¡± Selena


    asked in a low voice while Zaden still pacing backward


    ¡°I got news for you chief, I don¡¯t believe in god, I don¡¯t believe in sorcery and I certainly don¡¯t believe in


    supernatural creatures, understand?¡± she pointed her index finger at his face with anger. Instead of


    scaring away, he let out a low chuckle and pecked a kiss on her finger, stunned by how much this little


    creature can scare an alpha.


    ¡°That is nonsense¡± Grandpa Kai said from behind her, referring to her whole belief system


    ¡°OK, fine¡± she threw her hand into the air


    ¡°Prove it to me. Not behind cloth or from a hidden closet but right in front of me, while I¡¯m watching.


    Prove it to me!!!¡± Grandpa Kai and Zaden exchanged look before he shrugged


    ¡°Wait here¡± he ordered seriously and walked out of room with Grandpa. He leaned over the second


    floor handrail before shouted


    ¡°Make, I need you here¡± Make rushed to second floor as Zaden opened themunal room


    door, guiding her inside but before she passed the door, Zaden whispered to her


    ¡°She wants proof of werewolves¡± only to receive a wide eye from her. After closing the door, they


    waited outside the door.


    Inside, Make approached with hesitation at the now irritated Selena, crossed arm over chest.


    ¡°You wanted proof of werewolf?¡± she asked as Selena nodded


    ¡°What kind of proof?¡± she asked


    ¡°I don¡¯t know, maybe bring a werewolf in front of me¡± those words were dripping with sarcasm. Make


    sighed out and went to a corner. She started stripping down naked, making Selena to turn away in


    embarrassment. Then she heard finger snapping at her. A thug look in her eye as Make said


    ¡°You want proof, then look here¡± the next second, slowly her fingernails extended out of her fingers,


    forming w. Her teeth extend to fangs and a coat of shiny burgundy fur reced her once shiny


    caramel skin. Selena breathing started to elerate as she moved around towards the door, safety


    precaution. Bones started snapping as she decent to crawling position. Her nose extends to a snout. A


    few secondster she became aplete wolf, bigger than any regr wolf, shook her body and gave


    out a howl. Selena screamed at the top of her voice, but her friends couldn¡¯t hear her when she is in


    the room. The wolf looked straight at her with a panting breath, eye as dark as night. Selena ran as fast


    as she could out of the room, opened the door to m against Zaden¡¯s hard chest, falling straight into


    his arms. He immediately hugged her, worried eyes focused on hers.


    ¡°Make!!!Make, she¡­Make she¡­strip off¡± Selena started stuttering frantically, panicked at


    Zaden¡¯s arm. She turned around to face Grandpa Kai., but Zaden didn¡¯t let go of her, his hands are


    around her stomach now as he rubbed her arms, trying to calm her down


    ¡°Her nails!!! no, no, ws. Bloody ws¡­.¡± She looked at her own nails before turning back to Zaden


    with wide eye.


    ¡°And teeth¡­fangs¡­fucking fangs¡± she turned back at Grandpa Kai


    ¡°And her skin¡­not skin anymore¡­it¡¯s fur. Do you understand what I¡¯m saying¡± Grandpa Kai just


    nodded calmly. Themunal room door opened as Make walked out in human form, dressed in a


    hurry that she didn¡¯t do top button and hair as messy as a bird¡¯s nest. When Selena saw her, she


    wrung her hand and turn around in a snap, burying her face in Zaden¡¯s chest while grab holding his


    shirt in a fist, breathing heavily. Zaden looked at the other two hopelessly as his arms still embracing


    her.


    ¡°Take your time¡± Grandpa Kai said as he gestured Make to follow him. When they went out of side,


    Zaden pulled her tighter to him while rubbing her neck gently


    ¡°Shuu¡­calm down, calm down, baby¡­¡± he whispered to her ears. She snapped her head up, face


    filled with panic.


    ¡°You don¡¯t understand. You have a werewolf in your house. She. She.¡± Zaden leaned and softly ced


    his lips against hers. A quick but stern kiss, calming her down at the spark surging through her body.


    She closed her eye and remained closed for a while even after he let go, like she was hypnotized


    ¡°Calm down, ok¡­ Just listen to me¡± he caressed her cheeks with his thumbs.


    ¡°I know she is a werewolf. I am a werewolf¡± her eyes snapped open


    This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.


    ¡°Grandpa Kai is a werewolf. Orion, Sitka, Xavier and the whole vige is werewolves¡± she paced away


    with a wide eye.


    ¡°And you, you are a werewolf of Samrat¡± he said in low voice filled with care and love to her


    ¡°Stay away from me¡± she warned him as she ran away, down the stairs to her friends. Zaden followed


    behind her, calling her name again and again but she ignored him


    ¡°We need to get out of here¡± she said to her friends as she walked away from them, to the room given


    to her and started packing her stuffs. Orion entered the room, but Selena ignored as she continued


    packing, her hands trembling


    ¡°Selena¡­¡± she kept packing


    ¡°Selena¡­:¡± this was Zaden. Soon, she was joined by her friends


    ¡°Selena, what¡¯s wrong¡± Jeffry pulled her by her arms, facing him


    ¡°We need to get.out.of.here, do you understand?¡± she separated the words and looked at them sternly,


    making her point across loud and clear. Jewel gave in and started to pack her things as well. The guys


    shrugged and tried to retreat from the room to their room when Xavier blocked them.


    ¡°Lock her up¡± Zaden ordered Orion in low voice while he leaned against the door, hands in his pocket.


    Orion nodded and walked over to Selena, grabbed her hand to make her turn. He then bent down to


    clutch her knees as he plopped the 5.2 feet small frame girl over his shoulder and walked away to a


    room in second floor. Her friends protested heavily while she punched and kicked him, to no avail.


    Once in the room, he gently ced her down


    ¡°I don¡¯t want you to leave either, more then Chief probably¡± he frowned with a sad face and walked out


    of the room, locking the door behind him. She ran behind him and mmed her fist against the door,


    again and again to no avail. After a few attempts, she gave up and slide down the door in frustration.

 CHAPTER 7

    CHAPTER 7


    Worry about her friends started storming inside her and she broke down to tears. A few members of the


    house were ced to guard her door. Even if there were no guards, Selena wouldn¡¯t dare to leave this


    ce without her friends and if it¡¯s true that she is a werewolf, she might survive the escape attempt


    but her friends would be torn into pieces if something goes wrong.


    When Orion came down, Selena¡¯s friends were already locked up at the ground floor, in her old room.


    ¡°What now? We can¡¯t keep them like this forever¡± Orion asked Zade, in a calm manner. He rubbed his


    hand against his neck in frustration and let out a low sigh.


    ¡°Let her calm down a bit and I will talk to her. For now, let¡¯s get done with dinner and arrange


    something for her friends to eat.¡± Zaden took a few steps away


    ¡°She needs to eat also¡± Zaden turned around and cocked an eyebrow at Orion. He is notfortable


    with Orion¡¯s attachment to her.


    ¡°No one is allowed to talk to her except for Grandpa Kai and me, we have to be careful with the


    information given to her, for the sake of our pack. It¡¯s an order, do you hear me?¡± just to be doubly sure,


    he used his alpha tone, making Orion shrink back a bit and agreed to him.


    One by one, people had started to gather at the yard, cing trays and trays of food on the buffet table.


    Selena could see them from her room. Zaden came out to greet and join them in dinner, as usual.


    Once she saw him, Selena shrunk back to her room and sat on a single bed provided there. Grandpa


    Kai came earlier with a guard to bring her all her necessities and even some new clothes. He tried to


    soothe her but nothing worked as she ignored him and stared outside the window. Slowly, people


    started retreating home from the dinner buffet and Selena peeped out hoping Zaden wouldn¡¯t spot her,


    but she saw her friendsing out, apanied by Orion and two other guards. They had a nervous


    expression as they were talking something with Orion.


    ¡°The second floor, that¡¯s were your friend is resting. She is provided with everything necessary and


    taken care of as long as you guys don¡¯t create any haywire.¡± Orion exined to them with a hint of


    threat. They looked up at the second floor but couldn¡¯t see Selena but Selena saw them clearly and


    she ced her palm on the window, hoping to touch them.


    ¡°Having fun?¡± a deep husky voice behind her spooked her to the core as she turned around in freight to


    see Zaden standing at her now shut door with a te of food. She must have been too preupied


    with watching her friends that she missed the door opening sound.


    ¡°Civilized people would knock on the door¡± she spat out the word with scowl. If only she had a knife,


    she would stab him right in his heart. He red at her in return.


    ¡° I¡¯m not in the mood to argue, Selena.¡± His temper is slowly rising as he gritted his teeth


    ¡°Good, then you can leave¡± she crossed her arms around her chest and turned her back at him, looking


    out the window. Her friends are not there anymore. There is burning anger in her chest. Zaden walked


    to her, she heard the calmposed footsteps but she was not in mood to be coaxed and Zaden knew


    that, as well. He grabbed both her arm from behind, twisting it back to him and tied up her hands


    together with a strong cloth tape. Selena struggled to release herself, but she couldn¡¯t even loosen his


    grip on her. When she turned around, he already backed away.


    ¡°What the fuck?!?!¡± Selena screamed at him


    ¡°Watch your mouth, baby girl¡±


    ¡°I am not a baby and I am not your girl, so stop calling me that¡± she shouted at him. He leaned on a


    table in the room with a smirk on his lips and a twinkle in his eye.


    ¡°Then how would you like me to call you? Sweety? Honey? Or maybe my love?¡± her death re


    narrowed with confusion at the familiarity of thosest words.


    ¡°Come here¡± he signaled her but she didn¡¯t budge. So, he walked over to her with the te, set the


    te down, grabbed her by her hip and lifted her up, making her yelp. He then ced her on the


    windowsill.


    ¡°There, that¡¯s better¡± he cut into the chicken, dipped into sauce and feed her.


    ¡°Sorry I had to tie you up, I don¡¯t want to be stabbed by dinner knife.¡± He continued feeding her. She


    ate in silence, not wanting her face to be smudged by the food.


    ¡°We need you to be health and intact when Ozrain Samrates here¡± Selena¡¯s eye widened


    ¡°Who is that?¡± she asked


    ¡°Possibly your great great great grandfather¡± he gave her a broli, but she pushed her face away and


    jumped out of the windowsill


    "Huh...Not a fan of broli, I guess" he mumbled.


    ¡°Look Zaden, I won¡¯t tell anything to anyone, lets erase this past week from our memory. Don¡¯t give me


    away to a group of werewolves, please, I¡¯m begging you¡± Zaden heart broke into pieces at her words,


    his face dropped instantly as he swallowed down an empty throat.


    ¡°You can really do that? Forget this week? Do you really WANT to forget this week?¡± he asked looking


    at the floor while his hands are holding on the windowsill. Selena was lost, she didn¡¯t get what he


    meant.


    ¡°Well, I can¡¯t and I don¡¯t want to¡± he added along making Selena straightened her back with a frown on


    her face. He then let out a sigh, still facing the window.


    ¡°Fine, I won¡¯t let him know till I¡¯m 100% sure that you are his granddaughter, I promise. Now would you


    finish your dinner like a good girl?¡± she smiled gently apanied by a great relief. She walked back


    to him, turned her back to him


    ¡°And I promise not to kill you. Not yet, anyway¡± a smile creeped up his lips as he moved closer to untie


    her hands. She rubbed her wrist once he was done, took the te to the table and sat down to eat. He


    came and sat on a chair opposite her. She took her own time, with small bites to finish her meal.


    ¡°Why is it so important for you to hand me over to the Samrat¡¯s?¡± she asked while taking another bite


    ¡°It¡¯s a long story¡± he ran his fingers through his dark hair


    ¡°Do I look like I¡¯m about tounch rocket for NASA?¡± he let out a low chuckle.


    ¡°See, werewolf are believed to be moon goddess blessing but Samrat¡¯s are believed to be direct


    descendants of the goddess herself¡±


    ¡°Moon goddess as in the moon up there?¡± Selena pointed to the night sky and Zaden nodded


    ¡°Because of that, they generally have great powers, strength and longer lifespan. For example, you.¡±


    He pointed at her, touching her nose. His answer drifted away


    ¡°How am I an example?¡±


    ¡°Have you ever noticed? Howe your skin is like a 12 year old but you are already 24? And why


    your skin radiates like newborn baby when the sun hits? Or why your lips are still as soft and pink like a


    newborn, that they would probably bruise if I pinched them together¡± saying that he really did pinched


    her lower lips between his thumb and index finger, making her lips drain out of blood and turn white as


    she frowned in pain. She hissed and rubbed her lips when he let go.


    This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    ¡°Normal werewolves age slower then human but Samrats age even slower than werewolf. They are


    said to be powerful because they canmand any werewolf, regardless of which pack they are from.¡±


    He exined further


    ¡°Command?¡±


    ¡°Ya, alpha¡¯s canmand their pack members and they can¡¯t disregard it but the same alpha can¡¯t do


    so to other pack member, Samrats can. Hence making them the king. Only downside is, they take


    forever to find a mate and when they do, they are always blessed with one child¡±


    ¡°Mate? ¡° Selena¡¯s question made Zaden realize how ignorant she is to their life and being in this


    situation to exin mate bond to her, made him blush as he ran his fingers again through his hair.


    Thankfully, it was dark enough to cover his pink cheeks.


    ¡°Mate is like lover, only it is decided by moon goddess and not the lovers themselves. It¡¯s the most


    beautiful thing ever. You don¡¯t know when or where your mate is going to show up but when they do,


    they take over you like a storm. You can¡¯t control yourself, you would gave up anything to be with them


    and to make them happy or to protect them. Marking your mate, I mean marrying your lover, makes


    you stronger. Your mate will be the one holding the missing piece, the element that you need to be


    complete. Breaking the mate bond can be deadly for most wolfs. From what I heard, it feels like


    someone ripped your heart from your chest, threw it on the ground and stomped on it. Some who


    survived are left with scar within them for the rest of their life.¡± he looked at her, hoping that she would


    be as impressed as he is but instead, he got more to a confused frown


    ¡°What?¡± Zaden with downturning tone


    ¡°I don¡¯t buy it¡± Selena shrugged


    ¡°What? Why not?¡± Zaden


    ¡°See, from your point of view, it¡¯s moon goddess¡¯s gift. From my point of view, it¡¯s chemistry and


    hormones clicking together. And to summarize what you just said, they are forced to be together for the


    sake of sex or because the so called ¡®moon goddesses¡¯ decided to y mix and match game. I agree


    that they might bond sexually but that¡¯s not love. It means they may move on when they get bored with


    the sex, but they can¡¯t because of the fucking mate bond. Simple¡± Zaden¡¯s jaw dropped down as he


    went into a trans. He searched frantically through his brain for a way to deny her, but nothing came up.


    She was now done with her dinner and wiped her mouth, pulled her knese onto the chair while she


    lazily wrapped her hand around her knee


    ¡°Are you the alpha?¡± her question snapped Zaden back from his thoughts.


    ¡°Hmm yes¡±


    ¡°The day you found us in the forest, we were actually attacked by a group ofrge, no wait, extrarge


    wolfs¡± she tilted her head focusing her eye on Zaden


    ¡°Yes, I know. That was us. We felt threaten that someone is breaching the territory, but we retreat when


    none found. I knew we caused you guys to dy and it will be dark before you guys get to mountain


    foot, so we shift to human form and came to get you¡± Zaden finished


    ¡°Sooo therge ck wolf is¡­¡± she hesitated toplete her question. He rosed his palms admitting


    that it was him. Selena gasped as she closed her mouth with her palm


    ¡°Seriously? You arerge, like beastlyrge, do you know that?¡± Zaden just chuckled at her child-like


    reaction. Sensing more question toe, he stood up from his chair, took off his shirt andid on the


    couch that is right next to his chair. He ced his head on the arm rest and crossed his arm above his


    forehead.

 CHAPTER 8

    CHAPTER 8


    ¡°You are sleeping here? I won''t run aw¡­¡± her words got cut off


    ¡°Its my duty to keep you safe, and I''m tired, so stop talking, go to sleep.¡± He said as he tried to fall into


    sleep. Selena moved her mouth, mockingly but she had one more doubt to be rified. She moved


    swiftly to the chair opposite her and sat with knees to her chest before scratching his arm. He snapped


    his face up to see the girl had moved closer to him


    ¡°What?¡± his voice low and descending


    ¡°Have you, you know... found your mate yet?¡± Selena is now biting her lower lip in excitement. He let


    out a low sigh and covered back his forehead


    ¡°None of your business¡± he said. She sticked out her tongue irritated at him


    ¡°I saw that¡± she stiffened up but in next few minute, she scratched him again


    ¡°What if you find an ugly mate, with mis-shappen teeth, small eye or maybe a virgin?¡± Selena finished


    her question. Zaden dropped his hand, turned sideways and pulled himself halfway up with his elbow


    supporting below him. He still had to look up to meet her eye, making his chest muscle flex and more


    prominent.


    ¡°What if I find a cute, bubbly, beautiful round eyed girl with tiny lips and a tiny waist? And I don''t mind


    virgin because I''m not one and I know how to manage.¡± Selena opened her palm in air indicating


    surrender and then walked away from him to her bed.


    She sat there on her bed against headboard in silence for a while before she pulled out her chain from


    where it has been hiding, the depth of her chest. Ever since the chain came, her life took a drastic turn.


    Even though she had a crush on the man in her dream, she wasn''t ready to face another terrifying


    night with him, especially with all that she had gone through today. She took it off with a sigh and


    ced it in a drawer next to her. Zaden was watching all this in silence before he snoozed off to sleep.


    Selena tossed and turned on her bed but she couldn''t get anywhere near sleepy. Thousand thoughts


    invading her mind at the same time. After about an hour or two, she gave up and walked to the window.


    It was a beautiful night, the moon is nearing its fullest and the sky filled with bright stars. She climbed


    up and sat on the windowsill, pulled her legs to her chest as she wrapped her palms in front of her


    knee. She then leaned back to the wall while her head touching the ss, taking every bit of the night


    sky into her heart. She remained hypnotized for a long time. Zaden stirred out of his sleep due to the


    ufortable couch. With his blurred vision, he saw a girl with floor length white chiffon dress, sitting


    on the windowsill. Part of her skirt flowing below windowsill and she is hugging herself with her head


    against ss surface. He wanted to go confront her but couldn''t move his eye away, he allowed himself


    another minute and another minute and another minute to admire her. With his wolf''s eyesight, he


    gazed upon her eye and the natural thick eyshes fanning over it, her cheekbone that is not too deep,


    her nose which is sharp but small, her eyebrow perfectly parted and the most tempting pair of lips he


    could have ever meet. She was exotic beauty, not only to him but to anyone she could havee


    across. It was now 30 minutes and finally, he had the willpower to get up and walk to her


    ¡°Hey¡± he said casually, leaning on the wall at the end of her feet. She rubbed her arms as if she is cold.


    ¡°Hey¡± she replied


    ¡°You are not sleepy?¡± they said simultaneously before letting out a giggle.


    ¡°I couldn¡¯t sleep¡­¡± Selena said looking out of the window


    ¡°Any specific reason?¡± Selena face turned sorrow, she is actually afraid to fall asleep. Taking off the


    ne to stop dream is a theory, she doesn''t know if it will work or not.


    As if he understood her issue, he asked ¡°Want any help?¡±


    ¡°I don''t think you can do anything here, it¡¯splicated¡± she dropped her head onto her knees looking


    out of the window. Zaden walked next to her, took her hand and ced it on his bare chest, Selena


    turned her head towards him


    ¡°See, I have the ability to warm people, just like a wolf. ¡° they chuckled before he scooped up Selena in


    his arms. Selena gasped and spontaneously wrapped her arms around his neck for added support.

    ¡°Zaden, what are you doing? Put me down¡± she said. A hollow already formed at her throat making her


    corbones more prominent as she looked at his eyes.


    ¡°Rx a bit, would you?¡± he ced her gently on her bed, bringing their face too close as her lips


    identally grazed his cheeks a little. He then slides into the bed next to her. Selena held herself up


    with hand behind her, looked at him in shock. He grabbed her arms and pulled her toy next to him


    ¡°This is a bad idea¡± she said with scared looked in her eye. He pushed her shoulder to the opposite


    side, making her back face him, wrapped a hand to her waist


    ¡°A puffy eyed Samrat¡¯s daughter is not ideal. Don''t over think and close your eye¡± his warmth soothed


    her, she started feeling cozy.


    ¡°Can I ask you one question?¡± Selena in low voice. Zaden sigh out heavy, his breathe fanned the top of


    her head.


    ¡°Just one¡± he said and Selena nodded


    ¡°Why did you kiss me today?¡± it is a question that has been at the tip of her tongue the whole time and


    finally she blurted it out, making Zaden stiffen his back. He was hoping to avoid this question but he


    quickly came up with an answer to manage.


    ¡°There is only two way to calm down a rambling woman. One is to give her a tight p or another is to


    kiss her. Which one would you choose?¡± Selena tucked a palm under her head with a huff of irritation


    while mumbling curses inaudibly.


    ¡°By the way, was it good?¡± he asked while his eyes were still shut, above her head


    ¡°No, bad¡± Selena replied coldly. He lifted his head slightly to look at her and pinch her waist


    ¡°And how would you know which is good and bad, you Virgin Mary?¡±


    ''Filthy filthy filthy mouth''


    She thought to herself but maintained silence. Having another person this close had reduced her


    worries about dreand effectively and soon she fell asleep.

 CHAPTER 9

    CHAPTER 9


    Zaden slowly stirred from his sleep. His left torso felt warmed then usual. He opens his eye to see


    Selena''s ck hair. She was tuckedfortably between his arm and torso, while her face was facing


    the wall on their left, exposing her slender neck to him. With a little effort, he could see her sharp nose


    and a part of her lips. He tried to control himself to not go any further than that but failed miserably as


    his eyes travelled further down, absorbing every curve from her chest till her hip, into his memory. She


    suddenly stirred, turned to her right and pulled her legs up, into a fetal position while her face tilted up,


    her lips dangerously close to his. His eyes danced on the pair of rosy lips. He felt a thirst, needy to


    taste he, one more time, just one more time. He slowly slipped out of his control, as he leaned a little bit


    further, aiming at her lips. She started to stir and that snapped him out of his intention. She slowly


    blinked her maic grey eye open before sitting up on her bed, stretching her hand above her head


    with a yawn.


    ¡°Good morning¡± she said while rubbing her eye


    ¡°Ya right, good morning¡± he slipped off the bed and walked away with what looked like anger to


    Selena''s eye but he was actually disappointed to have missed an opputunity to kiss her.


    ¡°She just can''t stay in one ce, how hard could obedience be? Stay put, that is all she need to do¡± he


    mumbled low that only he could hear as he opened the door and left


    Selena got a long bath and put on a pair of army pants and ck sleeveless shirt. There was a knock


    on the door and Grandpa Kai peeped his head into the room


    ¡°Good morning, my dear child¡± he said cheerfully


    ¡°Good morning Grandpa Kai¡± a smile blossomed on her lips


    ¡°I have your breakfast¡± he lifted up his hands to reveal a tray of food


    She quickly digs into her breakfast. Halfway through, she realized that Zaden didn''t actually answer her


    question, why is it so important for them to hand her over to Samrat. She decided to ask Grandpa Kai


    instead


    ¡°Well, Samrat bloodline are technically kings, because they canmand other pack members but the


    downside is that when they mate, they are always honored with only one child. Ozrain Samrat...my


    friend, was one of thest one. He fell in love with a human, Elisa Mitkoi, who was exceptionally


    beautiful by her heart. They had a baby girl. But soon, when he was 35 years old, he stumbled across


    his designated mate, Queen Aira. It is very difficult for Samrats to find a mate since no women can


    endure their strength or fight by their side. Of course, she was not less in anyway then Elisa and she


    cared deeply for her people. Marking her will make Ozrain stronger and more powerful, so he excepted


    her to be his mate and marked her but she was just a mere sexual gratification, his heart still belonged


    to Elisa and the dear baby girl¡± Grandpa Kai pinched Selena''s nose. She sprang out of her seat and


    started pacing around


    ¡°Wait, this sound familiar. The queen sees him crying at night and agreed to bring home Elisa, but she


    would have died due to childbirth by the time he gets there, isn''t it?¡± Grandpa Kai eyes widened


    ¡°How did you know that?¡± he asked in disbelief


    ¡°And the king went looking for the child from one house to another..and.. and he would kidnap any child


    that stands at the doorway in the middle of night¡± she said with doubt


    ¡°Ok, now that part isn''t urate, child¡± Grandpa Kai disagreed when the door behind Selena opened


    and Zaden showed up. He froze there when he saw Grandpa Kai already in the room. Another girl


    followed him with a breakfast trolley. She excused herself and pushed the trolley into the room, stopped


    at nearby table and chair, bowed at them and left the room quietly.


    ¡°Your breakfast¡± he pointed at the trolley, low, hesitated voice while his eye was at floor level but she


    gave him a cold ze before turning back to Grandpa Kai to resume the conversation


    This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    ¡°How did you know about Ozrain Samrat?¡± Grandpa asked


    ¡°My grandma Genesis use to tell me this story before bedtime. We thought it is a made up story. Never


    wondered that it is actually about my roots¡± Selena said with confusion


    ¡°Then your Grandma must have known something to proof your link to Samrat¡± Grandpa Kai shifted his


    eye to Zaden. Zaden nodded


    ¡°Where is your Grandma Genesis?¡± Zaden asked with a stern look.

 CHAPTER 10

    CHAPTER 10


    Selena was reliefed that her friends and she, herself had a chance to escape from this ce. All she


    has to do is to endure Zaden and Grandpa Kai until they reach home. To her understanding, they can¡¯t


    do anything to force her back here if she refuses toe with them from her home. She got ready as


    quickly as possible but didn¡¯t pack any of her dresses as she doesn¡¯t want to raise suspicion. She


    heard a knock at the door and opened it to see Zaden, one hand leaned on the door frame while he


    dropped his head down. He doesn¡¯t look excited or anything near to that for the fact that they might find


    a link to proof that she is a Samrat. In fact, he looked pissed, as if he hated this whole idea. He turned


    around and walked out of there, not even stopping to check if she is following him or not. Truth to be


    told, he did hate this idea. He wanted to proof a link as bad as anyone else but he expected it to take


    some time. This is sooner then he anticipated and if they find a proof, then they have to inform Ozrain


    and he might take her away. That thought had been raking his mind for the past hours. Selena followed


    him silently.


    They arrived at the front yard where Grandpa Kai has already taken the rear seat. Selena¡¯s eyes


    wondered around hoping to see her friends but she saw none and Zaden was walking straight to the


    four wheel jeep, showing no sign of waiting for anyone.


    ¡°Where are my friends?¡± Selena finally opened her mouth


    ¡°Who said they areing?¡± she panicked at what Zaden said and her breathing started hiking while


    she licked her upper lip trying to content herself.


    ¡°What do you mean? I came with them and I expect to leave with them. I am not going anywhere


    without them, you understand that?¡± her head slightly tilted to the side as she red at Zaden. He


    walked closer to her but she didn¡¯t budge


    ¡°You are to go out of here with me and you are to return here with me. Until then, your friends will


    remain here. If you decide to take a detour, you won¡¯t be seeing your friends in one piece. You


    understand that?¡± Selena¡¯s eye froze with fear as images of her friends being torn to pieces by wolf


    shed by her


    ¡°I had a tiring start today and I have my own ways to contact my pack to finish the job any time I want.


    So, I would suggest you to be a good girl¡­¡± he pulled out a hand from his ck jeans and caressed


    Selena¡¯s cheek ¡°and do as I say¡± she took a few steps away from him, avoiding his hands. She stood


    there, brainstorming a way to turn things to her liking, any excuse or drama that she can pull off but


    nothing came. Tears clouded her eye as she dropped her head and walked past him towards the car.


    She opened the back door and sat with Grandpa Kai, behind Zaden. Zaden followed her with a smug


    look, sat on the driver seat and begin driving. He looked back anytime he could to see her grimed face,


    the usual bubbliness has died out. Her head tilted further back as possible to look at the house before it


    disappeared from her view. A drop of tears rolled down her cheeks and the beaming sunlight amplified


    the tears as crystals to Zaden. She swiftly wiped it off with her fingers. Zaden rubbed his neck in stress.


    Maybe he was too harsh, he thought but it was necessary at that situation and he will never actually


    harm them.


    They were just 30 minutes into drive when Grandpa Kaiined about his knee and needed to


    stretch his legs on to seat next to him, so Zaden stopped the car and Selena got off, walked to the front


    seat, next to Zaden. She felt a slight fear building within her towards Zaden, he can be vicious beast


    under stress. As a result, she clinged close to her door, palm intertwined on herp, never to speak to


    him, look at his direction or even breathe audibly next to him. Zaden clearly felt the sudden hostility, like


    a wall between them. As much as he would like to break the wall by pulling her onto hisp for a kiss


    but this could be beneficial, given the current situation.


    After driving for a while, they came to stop at a restaurant for lunch, a bit further from mountain Manuka


    base. Selena walked quietly behind two men, one with masculine build and steady walk, another with


    walking stick and a bit of a bend spine. At the table, she sat in front of these two men


    ¡°What would you like to have, my child?¡± Grandpa Kai asked with concern to Selena


    ¡°Hmm¡­ I¡¯m not hungry grandpa. I need to use the washroom, excuse me¡± she walked away from them


    ¡°What did you do to her?¡± Grandpa Kai sneered at Zaden, and he exined what happen before they


    begin driving.


    ¡°Are you nuts? Are you top gone cuckoo? ¡° Grandpa Kai circled a finger next to his temple. Zaden


    sighed low.


    ¡°Why would you do that when we are not sure she is a Samrat?¡± Zaden drooped his eye to the ground.


    Then it clicked


    This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    ¡°Ooo¡­ you like her? And you don¡¯t want to let her go?¡± he let out a low chuckle.


    ¡°Son, love can¡¯t be forced. You can¡¯t bound her with a golden chain and expect her to like you. Gold or


    not, it¡¯s still a chain¡± Grandpa Kai raise his eyebrow. His face filled with lines, freckles and endless


    wisdom.


    Selena had a cup of fresh juice that was forced to her by Grandpa Kai before getting into the car.


    Zaden came way behind them, and they had to wait in the jeep for a few minutes. He climbed up and


    thrust a tin foil wrapped sandwich onto herp before starting the engine. Selena turned to see him,


    clenched jaw and eye focused on the road ahead. Her eyes remained on him in confusion for a few


    more seconds before he said in a deep, low voice


    ¡°Eat¡±


    ¡°I¡¯m not hungry¡± she said low, facing the window. The jeep pulled over to the roadside the next minute


    ¡°Grandpa, could you please excuse us¡± he said politely and Grandpa Kai obliged with a gentle smile.


    Seeing the old man walking past her triggered an rm as Selena opened the door and tried to jump


    out of the jeep but a firm hand grabbed her gently and pulled her in. Her heart thumped loudly through


    her chest. Had she pushed him too much? Is he going to threaten her again? He then leaned across


    her to close the door, took the sandwich from herp and unwrapped it. He pinched off a small piece of


    the sandwich and shoved it to her mouth as her eye fluttered at his sudden movement. He pinched


    another piece and brought it closer to her when she held his wrist to stop him as she was still chewing


    on thest piece. His heart softened at her touch as he fancied her lips. When she is done, the let go of


    his hand and this time he feed her gently and his fingers grazed a little onto her lips. She tried to take


    the sandwich of his hand but he pulled it away from her, pinching off another piece. Apparently, he


    enjoyed feeding her.

 CHAPTER 11

    CHAPTER 11


    It took a total of 4 hours and 30 minutes till they arrived at Selena¡¯s house. It wasn¡¯t a big house, a


    simple double storey house with a reasonable yard. The jeep pulled up their yard and the house door


    opened up before they could get down from the jeep. Tworge build man was already walking towards


    them with a wide grin. Selena ran towards the first man who looked much older, grabbed his neck and


    jumped up to wrap her legs around his waist. She is so small in his arms, covered with tribal tattoo. He


    gave her a long, hard kiss on her cheeks before shey her cheek on his shoulders


    ¡°I miss you, dad¡­¡± it came as a muffle.


    ¡° I missed you too, baby Bambi¡­¡± she chuckled.


    ¡°Hey¡± another man said with discontent from behind and Selena dropped down from her dad.


    ¡°Hey bro¡­¡± she extended her hand for a shake but that man with an irritated look pulled her hand into


    a hug as he carried her off ground


    N?velDrama.Org: owner of this content.


    ¡°I thought you said no more hugging¡± her voice came restrained due to the forceful hug.


    ¡°Not when you go missing for a week without any contact¡± he said with augh. He ced her down


    and wrapped his hand across her shoulder, hiding half of her body with his. Zaden felt so jealous of


    their interaction, how freely they can show their affection to her or call her by a nickname or being able


    to say ¡®I miss you¡¯ without getting a weird look from her. She turned around to see Zaden already


    walked close to them with a smile on his face.


    ¡°Dad¡­Zaden ck, Grandpa Kai. Zaden, Grandpa Kai, my dad Leonardo and my dear brother, Aaron¡±


    they shook their hands and introduced themselves. Leonardo first question after that was where her


    friends is. She felt froze for a minute


    Shit I didn¡¯t think of that


    ¡°They are on their way in another jeep¡± Selena eye snapped at Zaden. It must be a lie to stale the


    current situation but she yed along and invited them to their house. Selena offered her room for


    them to freshen up and get ready to go meet Grandma Genesis while she used another room to


    freshen up and rest. Zaden didn¡¯t understand, why does she have to give away her room and use the


    other room which he presumed to be a guest room but he shrugged it off. Selena¡¯s room was simple,


    white wall with ck wood framing windows and a queen size bed which was extremely soft. The walls


    were filled with photos of her memories, mostly with her mother. A row of friend¡¯s photos arranged


    chronologically, from when they were somewhere around 5 up to today. No wonder why she cared so


    much about them, they have been together practically their whole life. There were a portrait photos of


    her as a baby, pouted her lips as a drop of tears rolled down her eye and the moon mark were then just


    a dot. A weird photo of her in teenage, sleeping in a fetal pose on top of a car. Another photo of her


    wearing an oversized sunss, oversized heel, a handbag and a red lip, wearing nothing but panties


    made Zaden huff augh. The thought of having a baby just like that made him blush. She seemed to


    be the type that lives her life to fullest, everyday counts as what can be seen from the photos. She had


    been to gun shooting, horse riding, diving and there was one picture that caught his attention the most.


    A picture taken from back view, in greyscale, her head turned to sideways, so part of her face and the


    moon mark is visible, her hair flowing down her back but swept slightly to blowing wind and she was


    actually sitting on a cliff edge where the sun is setting down. But she didn¡¯t smile, she was blunt. Zaden


    goes around her room, checking her items when he found a small nket with rabbit prints on them.


    Her smell invaded him as he brought the nket closer to his nose, the same smell he fell for that day


    at the mountain foot, the smell that was capable to distract him, the smell that he indulged, the next day


    at the waterfall. His lips curled slightly upwards as he froze at the nket.


    ¡°She is lovely, isn¡¯t she? Ow how I wish I could have been young. I would sweep her off her feet and


    marry her¡± Grandpa Kai as he tried to bnce himself with the walking stick


    ¡°Wow, slow down, tiger¡± Zaden supported him by his arm and gently helped him to lie down.


    ¡°I¡¯m going to take a bath, you stay here. Don¡¯t go snooping around.¡± He said sternly and left to take a


    bath.


    Selena walked out of her other room and meet Zaden¡¯s chocty eye at the end of the corridor. He is


    wearing a white t-shirt and light blue jeans which reminds her of her dream crush. They walked towards


    each other and when they were close enough, she peeped to the back, looking for Grandpa Kai.


    ¡°He will be out in 10 or 15 minutes¡± he said and she nodded. They went downstairs and Selena made


    coffee for all of them. Zaden was busy talking to Leonardo and Aaron, they seem to bond well with all


    sorts of manly discussions that could never interest Selena. Soon, after the coffee break, they headed


    to Grandma Genesis¡¯s ce which was across the town. Her hand had just grabbed the jeep handle


    when another jeep simr to theirs, pulled up to their yard. Her friends got out of it. Selena shrieked


    and ran towards them, so did they and hugged each other in the mid-way. They were touching Selena


    everywhere, Jewel turned her round and round. Orion stepped out of the car and walked behind them


    ¡°Are you ok? ¡° Jeffry asked


    ¡°I¡¯m fine. How did you guys get here?¡±


    ¡°Orion said we can go home, and he drove us here but we thought you are still at the mountains!!!¡± they


    must have left the mountains within hours after Zaden did or else they couldn¡¯t have made it here this


    fast, so Zaden wasn¡¯t lying earlier. She turned to face Zaden and smiled at him which spells thank you


    all over it. Her nodded in response.


    ¡°Hey there, pumpkin. I haven¡¯t seen you in a long time too, don¡¯t I deserve a hug?¡± this was Orion,


    already syed open his arm ready to receive her. She hugged him gently and said thank you. After


    being depressed for 2 days due to Zaden¡¯s restriction, he finally felt relief.


    Orion joined them in one car towards Grandma Genesis house. On the way, Zaden asked


    ¡° Why did you sleep on the car roof¡± and earned a confused look from her.


    ¡°The photo wall, there was a picture of you sleeping on top of a yellow car roof¡± he exined and she


    rolled her eyes away to face the road.


    ¡°That was on my 16th birthday. Apparently, I have low tolerance to alcohol. My dad looked for me


    everywhere and I was found sleeping on top of a car roof.¡± Grandpa Kai and Orion let out a heartly


    laugh while Zaden tried his best to restrain hisughter.

 CHAPTER 12

    CHAPTER 12


    They drove through a narrow path, covered with gravel to arge metal gate. Selena and Orion got off


    to open the gates before the jeep could pass. A few more minutes, they arrived at a small piece ofnd


    in the mid of woods, where sun shone bright despite being surrounded by trees. There is no doubt this


    ce has wealthy mix of wildlife, with birds chirping, colorful butterflies seen everywhere and multiple


    bee colony stand around the property. A very small wooden house, painted white, possibly 10 feat by


    10 feat, situated in the middle of flower gardens, vegetables patches and fruit trees. A thindy and a


    fat one was working at the farm, scouting down to pull weeds and another one picking tomatoes into


    her apron. An olddy with sses sat on the entry, knitting in her rocking chair. She narrowed her


    eyes at the figure approaching her at a high speed.


    ¡°Grandma ma¡­¡± Selena shouted, making her realize who it is in front of her. She tried her best to


    stand up but Selena caught up to her first and kneeled in front of her, giving her a hug. A familiar


    Grandma smell made her recall her mother¡¯s embrace, since she used to visit her with Daisy all the


    time. The beauty of grandmothers is they are extremely tender to their grandkids, more than their own


    children. Grandma Genesis is no exception, as she gives special attention in spoiling Selena, too.


    ¡°Oh my dear Bambi¡­ I thought you have forgotten me. How long has it been? How are you?¡± the


    sweet but shaky olddy voice asked her, filled with excitement. She fumbled for her sses and wore


    it. When she looked up, she saw 2 men approaching her, 1 hot and dashing and another who is


    probably about 10 years younger than her, but the fact is, Grandpa Kai is already 248, triple her


    lifetime.


    T¨ºxt ? N?velDrama.Org.


    ¡°Oh I see you finally found someone. Oh dear, he is so yummy¡± Grandma cupped his cheeks within her


    palms, making Zaden pout and with his wide eye, he looked like a goldfish. Selena grabbed Grandma¡¯s


    shoulder and opened her mouth to exin but Grandma Genesis didn¡¯t spare anytime to give the most


    embarrassingment


    ¡°But he is so huge, how is my tiny Selena supposed to bare you at night?¡± Selena¡¯s eye widened


    spontaneously as she shut her own mouth with her palms and Zaden, who had been released from


    Grandma¡¯s grip, started running his fingers through his hair.


    ¡°Grandma ma, he is not my boyfriend¡± Selena eximed when Orion walked from jeep to them


    ¡°So, is he? He is smaller than him but sti¡­¡± grandma¡¯s word got cut off


    ¡°This is Zaden, Orion and Grandpa Kai. They have been taking care of me when I lost in a mountain


    hike. NO BOYFRIEND here grandma!!!¡± she eximed towards the end of her sentence and Grandma


    Genesis pursed her lips in frustration. Orion and Zaden felt a little odd at the word she used to define


    her stay at the mountain, taken care of. Did she genuinely felt that way after being kept ¡®room-arrest¡¯ for


    a day and half,ter threatened to rip her friend apart?


    Grandma Genesis makes the best oatmeal raisin cookies and they were served with hot cup of milk.


    They talked a little about some other stuffs before Selena hesitatedly brought the issue about Elisa


    Mitkoi.


    ¡°Grandma ma, you remember a bedtime story that you use to tell me, about The King of Beast? How


    did you...or¡­ where did you get that from?¡± there was a moment of silence as they anticipated for the


    answer but Grandma Genesis stared back for longer than necessary, making things ufortable


    ¡°My grandma Carol used to tell me the story and I passed on to you. She used to say that it is based on


    a true story but I don¡¯t buy it¡± she let out a small giggle.


    ¡°Where is this Grandma Carol originate from?¡± Grandpa Kai


    ¡°Serchembet, a small vige outside what now known as Makoya City¡± It was far away from where


    Ozrain and Elisa used to live but makes sense since they bedtime tale says Elisa¡¯s daughter was taken


    away to south and they are not sure Coral is Elisa¡¯s daughter or not. If she is not, then she might have


    been thrown far away from Elisa¡¯s ce.


    ¡°Grandma, is there any chance you remember who the parents of your Grandma Carol were?¡± Selena


    asked with her chin propped up in her palm. Orion¡¯s eye kept darting back to her every minute or so.


    Grandma Genesis frowned deeply trying to recall anything, any clue that can recall their name but none


    found.


    ¡°No¡­ but your mother used to keep a family tree drawing and some other things that was handed over


    from Grandma Carol. I didn¡¯t pay close attention to the content, neither did your mother, but she still


    kept it as a heritage, so to say¡± Grandma Genesis finished with a casual shrug.


    As much as they the 3 of them, Zaden, Orion and Grandpa Kai, wanted to run back to the house and


    look for the drawing, they had to stay put when Selena wanted to cook dinner and eat with her


    grandma. They sat on a wooden pic table set behind the house, had their dinner and stayed chatting


    tillte night. Selena sat in the middle of Orion and Zaden while Grandpa Kai and Grandma Genesis


    sat next to each other, since they needed the space to stretch their feet. Selena felt so stuffed and


    sweaty, snuggled in the middle of 2 gigantic, warm-blooded werewolves, both serving her dishes when


    her stomach is already full. Sitting opposite, Grandpa and Grandma can see that both the guys are


    actuallypeting to please the little thing in between them, that they kept staring at them.


    ¡°Damn, Selena you can really cook¡± Orionplemented her, cing his hand onto herp.


    ¡°Yes Selena, and I thought you said you cook asionally but these taste like done by well-seasoned


    cook¡± Zaden slightly turned his body, sliding his arms around her waist.


    ¡°Would you like to eat some roasted chicken?¡± they all shook their head since they are full


    ¡°Then move you two, I¡¯m stuck in between two ovens¡± she pushed them both earning a little space


    before fanning her t-shirt. Grandpa and Grandma ended up giggling.


    They arrived home at about 10pm and Selena went straight to her room while the others stood at


    corridor, utside the room, looking baffled. She seemed not interested in investigating what her mother


    had inherited. Orion ended up sharing a bed with Aaron, Grandpa Kai and Zaden shared Selena¡¯s bed


    but Zaden couldn¡¯t shut his eye until 1am due to Selena¡¯s strong scent woven in her bed. He had a


    hard time controlling his mind, as images of Selena and her smile shed in his mind, again and again


    and again. Finally, he had enough with the tortured and grabbed a pillow before departing to ground


    floor to sleep in the couch. To his surprise and aiding in his irritation, Selena was already there,


    sleeping on one of the couch.. It was dark and the moon light shining through front window gave a


    vague view of inside the house but for Zaden, his alpha wolf eye made it clear that she is also trying to


    sleep. He could pretend not seeing her and go back to the torture chamber or he could cross her to get


    to the other couch, next to her head since the couch is arranged in L-shape. Great, there is no escape


    ¡°Hey¡­¡± he said


    ¡°Hey¡­¡± she replied


    ¡°Couldn¡¯t sleep?¡± she just nodded with a hum. Her eyes didn¡¯t follow Zaden, they were frozen,


    observing a rocking chair on the opposite site. Zaden became curious, but at the same time, he didn¡¯t


    want to disturb her as well, so he sat there on the edge of his couch, near to her head, crossed his


    arms across his chest. It took her about 7 minutes before she talked which felt like an eternity.


    ¡°When I was little, everytime I had a nightmare or it is raining with thunder, I used to sit on my mom¡¯s


    lap on that chair. She will read me stories and sing luby and rock me till I fall asleep¡± there was a


    pause. She then turned around to face the couch¡¯s back.


    ¡°She died in a car crash about 5 years ago¡­ She was always there for me but this past years¡­¡±


    Zaden heard a tiny little sob and immediately, he melted like ice cube on hot pan. A pair of hand


    slipped below her shoulders and thigh, scooping her up from the couch, flipping her towards a hard


    chest. Selena stunned with surprise.


    ¡°Oh, I hate being small. You are nothing different from Aaron¡± she pped his chest while augh


    escaped between her dreadful sobs. He smiled in return and sat on his couch. Zaden didn¡¯t talk


    anything for a while, just hugged her to his chest while he slugged against the couch. After some time,


    he broke the silence.


    ¡°You don¡¯t have to look through her stuff if you don¡¯t want to¡­¡± he blew softly at her forehead, removing


    one stray hair out of the way. His hand had slipped from her thigh to her arms, embracing her into his


    warm chest.


    ¡°We have to¡­She was obsessed about my moon marking when all of us epted it as normal. Now, I


    feel like I owe her, thanks to your Grandpa Kai¡± she rolled her eye but he can¡¯t see since she has her


    head tucked under his chin. Zaden yfully swat her arm with a bite on his lower lip.


    ¡°Is that your mother¡¯s room?¡± he asked and she nodded. She couldn¡¯t understand till this second why


    he never failed to make herfortable, why is it so easy to open up to him even though she had


    known him for only this 1 week. For one minute, heforts her with his warm nature, soft touch and


    gently smile. The next minute, he is this Alpha of a wolf pack who would threaten her, being in cold


    to her or have her detained in a room.


    ¡°I haven¡¯t revisited her things in a long time. It brings back memories that is too painful to deal with, you


    see¡­¡± she said


    ¡°Then think of something that makes you happy before going through her things¡± he said while shuffling


    back to lean t on the couch. Zaden on couch and Selena on Zaden. The first thing that came to her


    mental image with Zaden¡¯s words was her dream crush and his bronzy chocte eye. She had


    sessfully avoided himst night but oddly, she misses him. She yearns to touch him one more time.


    She took out the chain from her jacket and run her thumb over the stone. Zaden peeped over her head


    to get a glimpse of the locket.


    ¡°Ahh, the precious locket!!! I wonder what it¡¯s doing in your hand and not on your neck. Who gave it to


    you?¡± he said with a hint of sarcasm


    ¡°No one. But it reminds me someone¡­¡± she said low


    ¡°Someone special, I guess?¡± Zaden, curious of what her answer would be


    ¡° Sort of¡­¡±

 CHAPTER 13

    CHAPTER 13


    Zaden was going through some books that Selena¡¯s mother, Daisy, owned while Selena had slipped


    under her bed, going through some boxes stored there. They have been digging through Daisy¡¯s


    belongings since morning but so far nothing useful came up. Selena slipped out of under bed and sat


    on the floor, crossed leg in frustration. Her hair messed up and she swept it away from her face. She


    was wearing a hoodie and ? leggings, with a white converse shoe.


    ¡°I don¡¯t think there is anything here¡± she said to Orion who was going through Daisy¡¯s bed-foot chest.


    He plopped himself to the ground as if he agrees to Selena. Both their eyes darted back to Zaden, like


    a two year old asking for ice-cream break from their dad.


    ¡°Fine, be back here in 30 minutes¡± he said with a pursed lips and hands flipping through pages. Selena


    and Orion scrambled to stand but Orion manage to run out first. Selena had to keep a wooden marry-


    go round toy back to its shelving unit, against the teal baroque wallpaper which was covering every wall


    in the room. After making sure she had ced it properly, she turned around walking to the door, head


    down and hands in the pocket of her hoodie. Leonardo, her dad, suddenly stormed up from the


    staircase and stood in front of her. A weird look on his face and a hand hidden to his back


    ¡°I got a surprise for my baby Bambi!!!¡± he said enthusiastically before unravelling the content in his


    hand. Selena eye widened as a pang hit her heart. She darted back and forth from Zaden to her dad.


    ¡°And it¡¯s your favorite color too¡± Leonardo continued. Zaden who was practically hidden behind the


    door, curious of what is going on, peeped out to see arge masculine man holding an extrarge,


    purple, cotton candy between his fingers. He sneaked back in, stifling hisughter between his fist.


    Selena who fumbled for a moment, walked to her father, pinched a big chunk, easily half of the cotton


    candy and stuffed it into his mouth. She gave him a death re before snatching the rest of cotton


    candy from his hands. Realizing that he had embarrassed her in front of her new friends, her dad


    retreated away slowly. She peeped behind the doorT¨ºxt ? N?velDrama.Org.


    ¡°What so funny?¡± she asked with irritation


    ¡°A 24-year old with her favorite purple cotton candy, that¡¯s what¡¯s funny¡± he pointed at her cotton candy.


    They paused speaking for a second for the battle of stare. Giving up, Selena pinched a small piece and


    stuffed it to her mouth before sucking her thumb clean. She walked away but before she can step out


    of the room, she heard his voice


    ¡°Can I have some of your special candy?¡± he was leaning his chest to the door, facing Selena¡¯s back.


    She sees an opportunity to mock him back, so she walked over to him, pinched a piece and brought it


    closer to his mouth. He grabbed the back of her hand, ate what she gave but when she tried pulling her


    hand off, he held it even tighter, pulling it to his mouth as he sucked her index and thumb. He kept his


    now lusty eyes, boring through her eyes and into her heart. As well as the 1000watts electric wave that


    he sent through his tongue, stirring a swamp of butterflies in her stomach. She kept staring back into


    his eye, trying to read his emotions but failed miserably, since this is all new to her. She subconsciously


    took another pinch and brought it to him. He did the same, again. And again but this time he sucked the


    base of her thumb, finishing off his act with licking his bottom lip. He then leaned forward. Selena is


    aware of what might happen and the storm within her reflected in her eye and face as nervousness.


    Her breathe became irregr. Her brains tell her to move away but her body decides to go paralyze.


    He came closer and closer to her, almost touching nose to nose before his finger grazed her neck in


    the intention of holding the nape.


    ¡°Selena, you are taking forever. Are youing or not?¡± Orion¡¯s loud voice pped in their face as


    Selena pushed Zaden away by his chest, to the back of door, just in time before Orion showed up at


    the door. She had her right hand behind the door that she just pushed Zaden to, her left hand holding


    the cotton candy and Orion in front of her. Zaden didn¡¯t want to let her go. He wanted her so badly that


    he held her right hand, not letting her go. Selena¡¯s eye lingered to the floor, not knowing what to do,


    stuck between 2 of them. She is trying her best to wriggle her right hand but his grip was much


    stronger.


    ¡°Coming¡­¡± she said softly to Orion and pulled her hand away. Zaden understood that she wanted to


    leave from that one word she just said. He ced a soft kiss onto the back of her hand, leaving a trace


    of moisture before letting her go. Her toes curled, scrapping her shoe. She forced herself to walk out of


    there. Orion held her hand as he guided her to downstairs but just before leaving the room, she


    managed to throw a nce at Zaden, who is just walking out from behind the door. Her feet stopped,


    pulling Orion back. Her head tilted to the side with a heavy frown. One of the baroque motif above


    Zaden¡¯s head is upside down. Then she scanned the whole room to find any repetition of such pattern


    but none found.


    ¡°That flower is upside down, isn¡¯t it?¡± she pointed above Zaden. Orion and Zaden looked at the motif


    and then took a quick scan around the room. Orion rushed pass her to stand next to Zaden, observing


    the flower, meddling with it too see if they can find anything. Selena stood behind them with rising


    anxiety but there is no way she could touch the spot without any help, it too high for her. After trying for


    a while, Orion pressed on the motif and it bounced open to reveal a drawer with a key in it. He took the


    key and held it upfront Selena¡¯s face


    ¡°Any clue now?¡± Orion said. Selena snatched the key and ran to her father¡¯s room, the boys followed


    her. She opened the door to her father¡¯s cupboard. Now, this room looks more to a guest room. Ever


    since Daisy¡¯s death, the master bedroom is dedicated to Daisy and her husband, Leonardo shifted to


    the extra bedroom or guest room across the hall. Selena almost disappeared to the bottom of the


    cupboard, fumbling through the boxes down there before she finally found what she was looking for. A


    wooden chest box with intricate flower carvings on it. Once she was able to pull the box out, she sat on


    the floor with her legs crossed and tried to unlock the box.


    ¡°We found this box in the car that my mother had crashed. We couldn¡¯t find any key no matter how


    much we searched¡± the box unlocked and she opened it. In it, there were a few things that was used by


    Selena as a baby, a picture of Selena when she was born, a picture of Selena when she was 18, a


    newspaper report regarding Selena and a wooden te that has a family tree drawing. Zaden and


    Orion had settled down with Selena in the middle.


    ¡°What is this? You were in newspaper?¡± Zaden took the piece ofminated cutting.


    ¡°That is a simple mistake¡­ on my 18th birthday night, I had my first panic attack and passed out. I


    went missing although I don¡¯t really remember what happen after I cked out. They couldn¡¯t find me


    for 2 days, so a police report was filled and they arranged a search party. I was found in the woods


    near Grandma Genesis house, hidden in between 2rge rocks and¡­ naked¡­¡± she blushed but


    Zaden and Orion exchanged a serious look.


    ¡°Anyway, they did all sort of test and I wasn¡¯t raped and so had to announce that the search party is


    over, so I¡¯m on local newspaper¡± she tucked a strand of hair behind her ears.


    ¡°Selena, werewolves live a normal human life until they are 18. On their 18th birthday, they will go


    through their first shift. Normally we will be ready for that but since you didn¡¯t know you are a


    werewolf¡­and still not sure¡­I think that exins why you were found naked¡± Zaden said


    ¡°But why did she cked out?¡± Orion asked


    ¡°Natural body defense system¡± a shaky voice came from behind them, it was Grandpa Kai


    ¡°The first shift isn¡¯t just as simple as it looks. Your body need to prepare to pump 10x more blood,


    hormones level shoot up and the pain is unbearable when you realign your bones for the first time. I


    think she wasn¡¯t ready and cked out.¡± Grandpa Kai exined


    ¡°Wait, did you say that was your first panic attack?¡± Selena nodded to Zaden.


    ¡°Do you frequently get panic attacks?¡± he questioned again


    ¡°Yes¡­ but I will take sleeping pills and aspirin every time I see symptoms.¡± Selena


    ¡°What happens after that?¡± Orion asked while Grandpa Kai observed in silence


    ¡°Nothing, I just fall asleep and wake up the next day¡± Selena shrugged off


    Zaden scratched his head ¡° With dress?¡±


    ¡°Well, the first few times I cked out and woke up without dress and I can¡¯t find the dress either. So¡­


    after that, I just go to sleep¡­without dress¡± thest few words were almost inaudible and she dropped


    her head in embarrassment. Both the boys cleared their throat and ran their finger through their hair,


    avoiding her face.


    ¡°Wait, aspirin or sleeping pills aren¡¯t supposed to work on werewolf. Any human medication doesn¡¯t


    work on werewolves¡± Grandpa Kai said with confusion


    ¡°Hmm¡­I take about 10 pills¡­¡± Selena eyes focused on Grandpa Kai with a frown and the boys


    snapped their head to Grandpa Kai. Grandpa curved his lips downwards and shrugged his shoulder


    ¡°That might work¡±


    They continued going through the box. A thin wooden b with drawing of Selena¡¯s family tree was


    there. It goes back to 4 generation but it began after Grandma Coral and there is no Elisa Mitkoi after


    that, which means Elisa Mitkoi must have been 5 or more generation back


    ¡°Selena, you have never heard of werewolf in your family or rtives? ¡° Selena shook her head to


    Orion¡¯s question


    ¡°The genes must have been dormant for 5 generation or even more before it finally activated in Selena¡±


    Zaden looked at Grandpa Kai to confirm his theory and Grandpa Kai nodded in agreement


    ¡°How is it possible?¡± Orion asked


    ¡°There are cases in werewolves itself, where a werewolf mates with human and the offspring bes


    normal human but it¡¯s very rare and not all offspring skips the gene¡± Grandpa Kai exined from his


    experience.

 CHAPTER 14

    CHAPTER 14


    There was another thin wooden b in the chest box. It was written in anguage that looks ancient.


    After some discussion, they decide to show it to elderlies in the vige but Selena was against it. She


    didn¡¯t want to let go of her mother¡¯s possession. So, they took some photographs and sent it to


    Make and she would have to hike up and down the mountain to print out those photos. There were


    also some blood reports of Selena. Her blood was matched as distant rtive to an unknown DNA


    provided by Daisy but there were no clue of who it was. Daisy was doing some research, mainly


    concerning Selena and their ancestors, she must have spected about them being a descendent of


    werewolf but never told anyone about it. It was about 5 pm and Selena gathered the rest


    ¡°Look, yes, apparently my mom thinks that I am a werewolf but we have of no proof of it. Everything


    that we have seen and discussed today might be just a coincidence. I mean, I have never shifted to a


    wolf before, not that I can remember. I don¡¯t want my dad and Aaron to be dragged into this mess. It¡¯s


    about time theye back home from our caf¨¦, so can we please forget about this whole thing for a


    while?¡± she joined both her hands together in a praying position while her feet kept shuffling sideways.


    The others agreed and soon Leonardo and Aaron came back home.


    ¡°Hey there little Bambi¡± Aaron hugged her and lifted her up off ground. Zaden smiled recalling what she


    saidst night


    ¡®Oh, I hate being small. You are nothing different from Aaron¡¯


    Leonardo simply ced a kiss on her forehead once Aaron was done. Selena made coffee for all of


    them and when she came out, Grandpa Kai was already sleeping in the rocking chair and none of the


    boys were visible. She heard some noise outside and walked with the tray of coffee. They were in the


    basketball court behind the house but this court was a little different from typical one. There were tree


    stomps, about 2 feet in height, arranged around the court. It did raise questions in Zaden and Orion but


    they shrugged it off as ornaments for the basketball court.


    ¡°There is our star yer¡± Aaron eximed, earning a re from Selena. She then ced the tray on


    one of the stomps and sat on another nearby, one of her feet on the stomp, raising one knee to her


    chest.


    ¡°Who, she?¡± Orion pointed at Selena, mocking her. She was annoyed and rolled her eye while sipping


    a cup of coffee. Jewel, Noah, Jeffry and Oliver made an entry to the court at that same moment.


    ¡°Do not underestimate shorties¡± Noah warned them.


    This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    One thing led to the other, now Selena is in the court, hoodies off revealing a sleeveless, body con t-


    shirt which was enough for her to win Zaden and Orion because they got so distracted by the little


    cleavage showing through. She bounced the ball from right to left, sweats dripping off her face as she


    travels through the court and made a perfect shot to the basket. Ok, she is good at shots when


    someone passes the ball to her, that doesn¡¯t make her a good yer. From far, Jewel was sitting on a


    tree stomp and Selena, being the little cute thing she is, stood in the middle of tall, well build man. The


    scene itself is odd. Now Orion has the ball. Others are her friends and family, so they will give her the


    ball but not Orion or Zaden. This is where the true yeres out. Orion determined not to give her


    the ball, he turned his back to her as she tried to snatch it from sideways. He slowly moved to the edge


    of the court, bouncing the ball in attempt to avoid Selena


    ¡°Ops, wrong move bro!!!¡± Jeffry said with augh making Zaden puzzled. He stopped for a moment,


    clutching his waist with his hand and narrowed his eyes to Orion and Selena. Selena waited till Orion


    became too cocky and bounced the ball way too high. She stepped on the stomp, jumped up and hit


    the ball which has bounced higher than Orion head, hit it with her palm, stealing the ball as it flew to


    Oliver¡¯s hand. Zaden¡¯s eye widened as he snapped his head to Jeffry, who has a smug look on his


    face.


    ¡°Oliver!!!¡± Selena shouted, earning Zaden¡¯s attention back. Now, Oliver being the temporary keeper,


    passed her the ball and she surpassed every opponent like a pro and made another perfect shot. She


    is definitely good at making perfect shots as the ball didn¡¯t touch the hoop.


    ¡°Ok, fine¡± Zaden took it as a challenge. She lures the yer to edge and uses the stomp to get some


    height but what if the opponent doesn¡¯t go to the edge? She can¡¯t win now, can she? When Zaden got


    the ball, he was especially focused not to go anywhere near the edge and aimed straight to the hoop.


    Selena managed to stale him when she came to his front, trying to snatch the ball away, dripping in


    sweat and panting, eyes focused at the ball. Everytime she almost caught the ball, he bounces it high


    above his head, so that there is no way she can get it.


    ¡°Give up, baby girl¡­¡± he said in low deep voice after a few failed attempts by Selena. She was irritated


    for a second but then a smirk formed at the corner of her lips which was enough to confuse and distract


    him. He semi-crouched with his legs slightly open when bouncing the ball. Selena moved to his side


    and tried to snatch the ball. As anticipated, he bounced the ball high and Selena stepped on his thigh,


    jumped up and hit the ball with her palm and Noah caught it this time


    ¡°What?¡± Zaden stood there puzzled. Selena already got the ball back from Noah. She turned around


    and smiled at Zaden while biting her lower lips. She made another shot to score.


    ¡°Wait, that¡¯s not fair¡± Zaden eximed, not being able to ept his defeat. Selena had already caught


    the ball falling from the hoop


    ¡°What¡¯s not fair?¡± Aaron asked


    ¡°Selena, your sister. She is using prop around the court to score.¡± Orion supported his alpha


    ¡°And other yers body!!!¡± Zaden eximed


    ¡°She should be banned from basketball world¡± with Zaden¡¯s statement, everyone in the court moved


    closer, arguing against each other


    ¡°That¡¯s her talent¡± Leonardo


    ¡°That is not talent, that is cheating¡± Jeffry taking side of his team and soon there were mixed voices that


    Selena couldn¡¯t pick up a sentence from what they are talking


    ¡°Aaarhhh¡­¡± she shouted before running away from them, with the ball. If she cannot y, then no one


    should.


    ¡°Selena¡± her named echoed from her back.


    She ignored and ran heading to the nearby garden. She slowed down to catch her breath when a hand


    grabbed her arm and turned her around. She missed her bnce at the sudden movement, slipped


    and fell t on her back, pulling together the hand that was holding her. Orion fell on top of her, seizing


    her breath for a moment.


    ¡°My god Orion, you are fat¡± she said groaning under him. He giggled at her neck, as his face rested on


    the crook of her neck when he fell. She has an exotic smell that he can¡¯t really put his fingers on.


    Realizing their odd position, Selena became uneasy and tried to push him away but couldn¡¯t move him.


    He grabbed her wrist and pinned it to the ground next to her head


    ¡°You can¡¯t escape from me, Selena¡± rubbing his sharp nose to her nose. She giggled at the tikling


    feeling his beard made when in contact with her neck. His eye widened in amusement. He then rubbed


    his chin against her neck, making her tickle more. Wrong move. She shrugged her shoulder, shrinking


    the space in her neck crook and Orion¡¯s lips identally brushed against her skin sending tingling


    sensation across his lips. He needed one more taste. He leaned forward and gently sucked her neck.


    She felt a clog down her throat as she gasped too sharp. He didn¡¯t dare to look at her face, his breath


    stilled and his mouth felt dry. She pushed him away and scrambled back to her feet before walking


    away. Anger struck her bad. Zaden and Jeffry noticed the way she entered the house, like a possessed


    woman. She went straight upstairs and the 2 followed. She sat on her mother¡¯s bed with hands


    gripping the bed by her side tight. Her breathing is heavy as she clenched her jaw and her eyeballs are


    slightly red. Jeffry and Zaden slowly walked up to her


    ¡°Selena¡­¡± Jeffry called out her name


    ¡°Jeff, I need to be alone now.¡± Her voice was trembling but she kept her head down. Jeffry had been


    with Selena, he understood and was about to back out but Zaden didn¡¯t want to. He crouched down in


    front of her with his hands on hers. His touch immediately shed back and image of Orion on top of


    her, sucking her neck. Her head snapped up at him. He saw her eyes. Her usual eye color, light grey


    with ck rim, is now pitch ck. This ismon for werewolves, the wolf part has different eye color


    than the human part and shows u when the wolf is in control.


    ¡°I said leave me alone, NOW¡± her voice was also different. Her usual sweet voice apanied by


    another more maic but gravelly voice, sending chills even to an Alpha. He stood up and they


    walked away, closed the door and went downstairs where Orion had just stormed in followed by others


    ¡°What happen Orion?¡± Zaden asked through gritting teeth, suppressing his intention to kill him.


    ¡°Nothing¡­I ¡­just that¡­I¡­.¡± he stuttered. Zaden grabbed his cor and force him to face his, is Alpha


    is in control as his eyes was swirling between his bronzy eye and gold.

 CHAPTER 15

    CHAPTER 15


    ¡° I¡¯m sorry... I kissed her neck¡­ I¡¯m really sorry¡± Orion said with fear dripping in every word and his


    voice is trembling. Zaden escted to another level of anger in a snap and threw him across the room,


    hitting hard on the wall. He walked over, grabbed his neck and start squeezing it, making him suffocate


    for his breath. Everyone around him tried to stop him, even Grandpa Kai was ignored. Something else


    is possessing him, the thought of another men kissing her was revolting and the view of Orion turning


    blue in his hands was the cure. Selena heard the loud thud downstairs and she took control of her


    anger, rushed downstairs to see Zaden chocking Orion and he is turning blue. She stormed to Zaden.


    Her father worried, tried to stop her but Grandpa Kai stretched his hand as barrier. To Grandpa Kai, she


    is the cause of the conflict, and she is the fix too.


    ¡°Zaden!!!¡± she eximed while grabbing his arms but his hearing is deafened by his anger.


    ¡°Zaden¡­listen to me¡± she kneeled in front of him, between Orion and him. He didn¡¯t seem to budge.


    She turned to look at Orion who is in immense suffering at the moment. She grabbed Zaden¡¯s wrist


    with both hers and hitting him, tried to pull him away. The skin to skin contact made him return to


    reality. He let loose a little but notpletely. She turned to Zaden again, her eye is now back to light


    grey and tears rolled down them as she begged him


    ¡°Zaden please¡­let him go¡± she cupped his chin. He isn¡¯t budging. She has to do something. With quick


    thinking, she took a deep breath and her inner voice took over


    ¡®You are calming down for me¡­ you can¡¯t refuse it¡­ I need you to calm down now¡­. You are nothing


    but a small boy in my hands¡­calm down¡­breath¡­zone out¡¯


    T¨ºxt ? N?velDrama.Org.


    She was caressing her thumb over his cheeks while still had his face in her palm. Zaden slowly let go


    of Orion. Seeing she has situation under control, Grandpa Kai gestured everyone to leave the room


    and they obeyed. The 3 of them need space to resolve this. Selena turned around to face Orion. She


    gently pped his face trying to bring him back as he coughed and gasped for air. Zaden has kneeled


    down now, he wrapped his arms around Selena¡¯s waist and pulled her to sit on hisp as she yelped


    out of surprise. Zaden¡¯s anger subsided but his possessiveness and guilt of not being there for her took


    over.


    ¡°Just be mine¡­and only mine¡± he whispered to her ears. He then buried his face in the crook of her


    neck. Her butt clenched, her eyes squeezed shut at his movement and she swallowed her saliva. The


    ticklish sensation his soft yet firm lips spread through her skin was unbearable. As much as she wants


    to pull away, she also wants him to calm down and if this is what it needs to tranquilize him


    momentarily, then why not. She gathered all her strength to fight the ticklish sensation creeping through


    the veins in her neck and focused on Orion. She pped his face gently a few more times but couldn¡¯t


    find her voice. He shook his head to consciousness and the next minute, he hugged Selena from the


    front,ying his head on her shoulder


    ¡°I am sorry¡­I really don¡¯t know what got into me¡­I¡¯m sorry, sorry, sor¡­¡± he started rambling


    ¡°Shu¡­just breath¡­¡± she had her hand over the back of his head and another hand stuck in his hug. To


    make her suffering worse, Zaden started swirling circles on her neck with his nose. She opened her


    eye and mouth wide but nothing came out as her breath got stuck in the hollow of her throat. The


    natural sweet, exotic scent of her, exaggerated due to sweat from basketball game earlier and it is a


    tranquilizer for him, everything around became nk. He could only feel her, her smell engulfing him


    thoroughly. To aid her suffering Orion started moving. He kissed her shoulder with every word he


    uttered


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry¡­I¡¯m sorry¡­¡± his moustache brushed against her skin sending another wave of tickle. He


    slowly moved to her jawline, still nting his kisses. Selena¡¯s breath is picking up its pace, trying to


    provide enough oxygen to her body in coping with her current awkward situation. Zaden moved his


    hand into her shirt, grabbing her waist gently with his palms. She gasped. Orion moved to her


    corbone, sucking and nibbling, moving his head to sync his torture. Now, it has gone from mere


    ticklish to something else, pleasure, the kind she had never experienced before. Her breath trembled


    and she dropped her head back on Zaden¡¯s shoulder. This is bad and dangerous for a virgin. She has


    to control 3 of them now, and it¡¯s getting harder and harder with herself control at stake. She grabbed


    hard on Orion¡¯s hair as she bite down her lips, her whole body is trembling and she let out a moan


    which triggered Zaden toe out with his tongue, wondering as it wishes from her neck to the back of


    her ears and her earlobe.


    ¡°No¡­¡± she mumbled low and struggled to take control of the situation by pushing away Orion¡¯s


    shoulder but he pushed her hand to the side and hugged it, just like her other hand. In other words, her


    hands are tied between his hug. Like it or not, she is stuck between 2 wolfs. Wolfs are possessive over


    their mate but she is not mate to any of them but she figured they will have some sort of


    possessiveness towards a woman in their embrace. So far, she had subconsciously zoned them out


    from each other. They are in their own world with her in both but how long can she keep up when she is


    losing control of herself.


    Orion took it too far when he kissed her lips, making her moan even more. She can feel a sensation


    building up at the bottom of her tummy, mixed with anxiety in her heart and a thousand electric sparks


    through her vein. Both the boys enjoyed her moan, they are enjoying her and their hard manhood is


    rubbing her thigh and butt. Orion tried to get into her mouth as he ran his tongue along her teeth but


    she is not letting him. He grabbed her lower lips with his teeth and sucked on it a little bit harder before


    trying to enter his tongue again, as if he is begging to be let in. Selena let out a tiny whim from the


    pleasure and she can¡¯t take it anymore. The pressure that has been building in her lower stomach


    released like a snapped rubber band, making her wet down her legs. The smell of her arousal pped


    both Orion and Zaden in their faces. Realizing what just happen, Zaden moved back in shock,


    effectively dropping her on her butt and releasing her from Orion. They both stumbled back,nding on


    their butt. All 3 of them are breathing heavily right now, with Selena being the heaviest. She had the


    back of her palm over her mouth as she still is trembling


    ¡°Ok, next time, I don¡¯t care if you guys rip each other apart¡± she said sternly with a re before


    standing up and storming to her room.


    That night, it was raining. Selena, Orion and Zaden,y on their bed, in different room but despite the


    perfect whether to sleep, they couldn¡¯t. Even though Selena and Zaden would prefer to sleep on the


    couch, they forced themselves to stay in bed.

 CHAPTER 16

    CHAPTER 16


    Morning was more awkward than the day before. The 3 of them could hardly look at each other during


    breakfast. Thankfully, Zaden had a meeting with one of his managers and left to the city. Orion kept his


    distance from Selena because every time he gets closer to her, her tastees back to his tongue.


    Eventually they bumped against each other. She crossed her hands over her chest and leaned over a


    door frame. She pursed her lips and raised her eyebrow. Orion became ufortable at her reaction


    and rubbed his neck with his hand. He understand that eventually, he has to face her.


    ¡°Look, I¡¯m sorry for the way I behaved yesterday. Both times¡­ I don¡¯t know what got into me¡± he was


    formting more lines before she stopped him.


    ¡°Apology epted. I hope this means such act won¡¯t be repeated?¡± she slightly tilted her head and


    Orion nodded


    ¡°Ok, let¡¯s go. Oliver is waiting out there¡± they patched up but she still had a small rm bell, deep down


    her heart. The day went by fine and Selena is always apanied by Jeffry or Oliver when she was


    with Orion. The wooden b letter trantion took time, Make had to rewrite each sentence so that


    it will look bigger and then the elders would trante it, she would write it down into another paper.


    Plus, the elders need their rest, time to eat and their personal affairs to be taken care of, too. Zaden


    and Orion had to stay back till they figure out what is the letter about.


    Later that evening, Zaden came back. He must have gone shopping before attending the meeting


    because now he is wearing a silk ck shirt with a grey trousers and looking dashing than ever. He


    walked into the yard with his hands in his pant pocket, his usual rxed but arrogant mannerism. He


    saw Selena from far, sitting on her father¡¯sp, on a rattan swing at their front porch and her brother,


    Aaron feeding her with oats from an opposite chair. He said something, making Selenaugh. No


    wonder why she was fine with being feed or feeding others food, it is not affection, it¡¯s just what she is


    used to. When they were done, she noticed Zadening towards them. Leonardo received a phone


    call and got busy answering that while Aaron had gone inside the house to discard the soiled dishes.


    Zaden came to stand in front of her and winked both his eyes with a smile. Selena frowned, just a


    wink? Orion had said he is sorry like a hundred time but Zaden doesn¡¯t seemed to be bothered.


    Arrogance by blood, probably.


    ¡° I see you had dinner already?¡± he said.


    ¡°Yup¡± she answered keeping the same level of arrogance. He took a few steps forward, closer to her


    and she flinched as she dropped her hands from her waist, holding her pants fabric like a small child


    now.


    ¡°You didn¡¯te to sleep on the couch yesterday, did you?¡± she shook her head no, her eyes on the


    floor as if she is the guilty one.


    ¡°You didn¡¯t miss me?¡± he tilted his head slightly in attempt to see her face but failed. She shook her


    head no again but this time, there were a small drag, as if she is hesitating. He took one more step


    forward, narrowing the gap between them even more. He lifted his head up before letting out a low


    sigh. His eyes were checking around while he spoke the next words in a very low, husky voice


    ¡°But I missed you a lot¡­¡± her eyes widened but still focused on the floor. Her hands are now together


    as she fiddled with her fingers. He grabbed a lock of her curl and fiddled with it in his fingers. He let go


    when he realized Leonardo is done with his phone call and pretended to be normal. But Leonardo


    noticed a sudden change in his daughter. Her innocent eye is now filled with anxiety and her yful


    fingers, now fiddling nervously with the hem of her shirt. Not only once, but he had noticed such


    change in her eyes every time she is around Zaden, a stranger that she meet a week ago.


    ¡°Hi Zaden, how was your day? Did you manage to settle your issues?¡± Leonardo asked with concern


    ¡°Partially solved. I¡¯m afraid we might need a few more days. I can book a hotel room if¡­¡± he didn¡¯t


    manage to finish his sentence before Leonardo intervene


    ¡°No no¡­I insist. You took care of my precious baby in the middle of forest and mountains. At least let


    me do this favor¡± he said, earning a smile from Zaden. Selena was mentally chocking her father for his


    decision. She excused herself while Zaden and Leonardo settled down on chairs at the porch, talking


    about news, business and stuff that bores her to death.


    At night, when they were all heading upstairs to sleep, Zaden¡¯s eye kept boring at Selena, over


    Leonardo¡¯s head. He need to tell her a message but couldn¡¯t get any private time with her and now her


    father has his hand around her shoulder. Selena felt his gaze from the corner of her eye but she


    choose to ignore him, walked into Daisy¡¯s room and locked herself up. Zaden cursed her under his


    breath as he gave up the idea to meet her downstairs in the middle of night and shut his door, a.k.a


    Selena¡¯s room. He snoozed off for a few hours due to tiredness but when he woke up in the middle of


    night, it was difficult to fall asleep again. He decides to go sleep on the couch and grabbed a pillow and


    walked out with only sweatpants. As he approached the stairs, he heard a creaking sound and


    frowned. As he walked down, he saw Leonardo, covered with a huge bulky nket, on the rocking


    chair. He turned around when he heard Zaden and signaled him to keep quite. Zaden came closer to


    him, tilted his head to get a more clear visual. It was not just a bulky nket, Selena was wrapped in it,


    on her father¡¯sp.


    T¨ºxt ? N?velDrama.Org.


    ¡°She had a nightmare¡± Leonardo said almost inaudible. Zaden smiled as he walked to the couch and


    settled down. Leonardo leaned his head back and went to sleep while sitting. Only Selena¡¯s leg with a


    silver anklet and a silver bell can be seen from this point of view. The image of Selena sleeping on his


    chest, twice, came back to him. He thought it was affection but now, he has second thought about it. It


    is just what¡¯s she is used to. Now, recalling the stomp in basketball court, the way her father and


    brother hugged her the day she came back, feeding her in the evening, how they are so scared of


    offending her, the photos in her room and just generally how they take care of her, Zaden could see


    how much love was she showered with. A sudden pain hit him hard, could he ever be all this for her?


    Being a Samrates with its own package ofplications. Could she ever be this peaceful in a


    werewolf life? She did higher studies in her favorite field, something that not all will choose, Marine


    Biology and she also had already set a foot in the field. She is more of a practical and logic or evidence


    based thinker while werewolf life based on a lot of blind beliefs. Is it really necessary to disturb all this


    just because he fell for her? But the thought of not being able to see her again, crushes his heart to bits


    and pieces. If he can find Ozrain Samrat and give him back, practically what he has been searching for


    200 years, his bloodline heir, that would release his pack from a great danger that might hit anytime.


    He is torn between his life choices. He re-assessed all his choices again and again the whole night, not


    getting a single drop of sleep. At about 6 am, he finally fell asleep.

 CHAPTER 17

    CHAPTER 17


    ¡°Wake up, sleepy head¡­¡± Zaden blinked his eye to open. It was way brighter than normal. He looked


    around to see Selena sitting at his feet.


    ¡°What time is it?¡± he asked in a husky low voice.


    ¡°About half past 12pm. Why?¡± Zaden snapped up to sit.


    ¡°Howe no one woke me up?¡±


    ¡°Who would want to mess up with a sleeping alpha?¡±


    Make already send an email to Selena of the tranted letter and Selena got it printed out. Grandpa


    Kai, Zaden, Orion and Selena sat down as Grandpa Kai started to read the printout.


    I am in pain, in great pain. I can feel my baby dying, his soul slipping off my grip every second. His


    heart beat slowing down to almost none. It has been days, my baby is suffering for days. An innocent


    soul who nevermitted any sin, have not even harmed an insect yet he is suffering a painful death.


    Why?


    What sin did I do to deserve such a heartless punishment? I loved a werewolf, is love a sin? If so, God


    is the one to be punished for giving me the ability to love a beast. God, including your Moon Goddess


    are the one to me, not me or my baby.


    Mark my words, you will pay. You will pay for the slow death my baby and I suffering now. You will


    regret the minute you left me to die, tied up here, on this tree. I will reincarnate, somewhere in the


    corner of the world and I wille to find you


    I will hunt you down, every single one of you. I will rise again from the peak of mountains, with my own


    army of loyal followers, raging with red eye. When I do, you are no longer the king of beast. Mark my


    words, your kingdom is no more yours. You will be spell bound and beg for death under my feet. Under


    my feet¡­.


    All eyes were on Selena. She was the only werewolf born after 5 generation and she remained hidden


    for 24 years, even after her first shift. She is the one who came to Mountain Manuka with the intention


    to hike it. Ozrain Samrat, a whole army of Samrat and their rogues have been hunting for her. Ozrain is


    known to travel around the world to find his bloodline when she was just 10 hours away but she still


    haven¡¯t found a trace of her. The writer was angry with god, and Selena doesn¡¯t believe in god too.


    ¡°What?¡± Selena asked in confusion


    ¡°Don¡¯t you see? This manuscript is referring to you. You are the rebirth of Elisa Mitkoi!!!¡± Orion


    eximed. Selena stood up from her seat


    ¡°What makes you think Elisa Mitkoi is the one who wrote the manuscript? ¡° they were all dumbfound.


    ¡°Then who do you suggest wrote this?¡± Zaden questioned


    ¡°Someone who took Grandma Carol¡¯s bedtime story a bit too serious. All I know is that my mom was


    obsessed with my moon mark. Even she could have written it, who knows.¡± She made sense and they


    didn¡¯t have a counter statement to hers.


    ¡°Let¡¯s assume the manuscript is original and written by Elisa Mitkoi. Look at me!!! Do I look like I can


    take down an army of werewolves? Have I ever consciously shifted to wolf? For god sake, are you


    guys 100% sure that I am a werewolf? Have you seen my wolf? Think Zaden¡± Selena snapped.


    ¡°I have seen your eye changing color¡± Zaden said low


    ¡°Excuse me¡± Selena jerked her head back a little with a frown


    ¡° You were angry with Orion yesterday and steaming in your room, do you remember meing to


    coax you? You looked at me, your eye was pitch ck with silver rim¡± Zaden said. Somewhere in his


    heart, he knew she will find a way to counter this and he hesitated.


    ¡° It was a dark room Zaden¡± Zaden pushed his chair back vigorously and walked out of the room. His


    anger was rising every minute he is here, trying to proof her that she is a werewolf. Orion ran following


    him and grabbed his arms but he ripped it away. He stormed out of the house.


    Back at the room, everyone walked away from Selena. She kept staring nkly at the manuscript. The


    original wood b is quite hard to replicate but again, how did a dying woman managed to carve out a


    letter on tree bark? Her heart beat slowly started increasing but she didn¡¯t notice it as her thinking is


    focused on the manuscript.


    ¡®Mom did a DNA test from an unknown sample that matched to me. Could the sample be from the


    manuscript?¡¯


    Blood started rushing up to her head causing slight dizziness. She blinked for a second long as she


    tries to snap out of her dizziness.


    ¡® If the sample is from manuscript, it matched me. Which means I am rted to the writer. But again,


    what if Daisy wrote the manuscript, being her daughter, of course my DNA matches with hers.¡¯


    The room around her began constricting as a sudden chill creeped up her fingers. That¡¯s when she


    realized she is having another panic attack. She ran to her bathroom, took a bottle of pills from the


    cab and refilled a cup nearby. Orion grabbed her hand with pills


    ¡°What are you doing?¡± Orion asked


    ¡°Let me go¡­¡± her voice was way lower and doesn¡¯t sound like her, her breath trembles as well as her


    hands. He let her go and she quickly swallowed those pills with some water


    ¡°Is that sleeping pills?¡± Grandpa Kai questioned and Selena nodded her head that is leaned back to


    bathroom wall, swallowing gulps of air trying to cope with her body. Orion grabbed her hand and


    dragged her out of the bathroom, the room and then outside of the house. Leonardo and Aaron who


    was discussing about Zaden storming out is now shocked by Orion¡¯s action pulling half-awake Selena


    out of the house. They ran behind them and managed to stop in front of Orion.


    ¡°Let her go, she is sick¡± Aaron bursted out. Selena could barely keep her eye open as her head rolled


    up and down uncontrobly. She sweat profusely as she breathed out loud. Leonardo snatched her out


    of Orion¡¯s hand and hugged her to his chest where she finally got a ce to rest her head.


    ¡°Leonardo please. Let me exin. She is not having a panic attack¡± Zaden came out of the woods


    rushing towards Orion. Orion looked behind him


    ¡°Zaden. She is having one more of the panic attack ¡° Orion hugged his waist exining to Zaden as if


    he is having a panic attack. Zaden looked up at the sky


    ¡°It¡¯s full moon. She is having attack on full moon. She has been shifting every full moon¡± Zaden rushed


    towards her


    ¡°Leonardo please, let her go. She will be standing here, right in front of you, I assure you that¡± he said


    trying to change Leonardo¡¯s mind. By now Selena had cked out. Before Leonardo could say


    anything, they heard a low growl from Selena, hidden in Leonardo¡¯s chest. It was pretty dark out here


    that Leonardo started looking around for the source of growl. Then he noticed Zaden¡¯s eye focused on


    Selena. He looked down as he heard another stronger growl from her. He lifted her head up to face


    him, her face was white as snow. At first, Leonardo thought she is pale until a glimpse of shine caught


    his eye. She is has a sheen of silver on her skin. Her eyes were still closed. Her hair slowly started


    changing from root, ck to very light silver. Leonardo eye widened and he froze with Selena¡¯s chin in


    his palm. Zaden had to act, he grabbed Selena arm and carried her to a clear space. He ced her


    down and stepped back. Orion took his phone out as he recorded what was going to happen. Selena¡¯s


    dead like body is now moving slightly as she bend to fetal position and then suddenly arched her back


    as her hand got thrown to side. A series of bone snapping sound came along. Orion started grabbing


    his head and passed the phone to Aaron who is now freaking out. Orion¡¯s wolf screaming to be


    released. Zaden was much more in control but his breath hiked as he watched Selena. Selena started


    to grow ayer of silver fur. Her short nails has turned into ws. Her spine twisted and elongated. Her


    face elongated to snout and within the next minute she had turned into aplete wolf. Orion has


    started turning but Zaden withhold himself from shifting. He needs his human to face her wolf, just in


    case she became intimidated by other wolfs around her. Selena¡¯s wolf is much much more bigger than


    what Zaden has expected, almost as big as his wolf or even slightly bigger than his. Zaden careful


    steps towards now fully turned Selena. The wolf was still unconscious. He bend forward to have a


    better look at her. Simply divine would be the correct description. Aplete silver wolf wearing her


    leather ne from waterfall. The fur coat was super soft and shiny as it reflects the moon shine. A


    lump of ck fur formed a moon mark even on her wolf form, right below her ears, just like her human


    form.


    Zaden ced his palm on the silver wolfs face to only cover 1/3 of it. The wolf suddenly huffed out a


    breath and shook its head. She stood up with 4 legs and staled a bit to left and right before came to a


    steady stand. The wolf who is now panting, opened its eye and focused on Zaden, who is now


    awestruck. A pitch-ck eye with silver rim, staring back at him emotionless. A beast by nature that is


    as beautiful as the moon itself, yet ironically, for someone who is so blessed by the Moon Goddess,


    she doesn¡¯t believe in God. Zaden shifted under her stare, a pitch ck wolf with golden eye, soon


    apanied by a golden brown and dark brown wolf. Her eyes swept from right to left,nding on


    Orion¡¯s golden brown wolf, to Zaden¡¯s pitch ck wolf and Grandpa Kai¡¯s dark brown wolf. They all


    waited with anticipation of what she would do next. Naturally, a sense of protectiveness surged throughT¨ºxt ? N?velDrama.Org.


    3 of them towards her. One, because she stood there as a Samrat who can be their alpha and wolf¡¯s


    basic gic make-up is to obey and protect their alpha. Two, she is an innocent Bambi, hidden within


    a Samrat that needs their protection until she learns to defends herself. Three, they fell a certain


    attachment or could be exaggerated as ¡®fell in love¡¯ with her beauty.

 CHAPTER 18

    CHAPTER 18


    She finally turned around and howled, stomping towards the woods. It doesn¡¯t mean she has epted


    them but it also doesn¡¯t mean she rejected or intimidated by them. The other 3 howl delighted and


    followed her to the woods.


    Her palmspletely embrace the mother earth with each step, her eye looked forward in full


    confidence, ignoring the other wolfs around her that kept gazing at her. She loved mother nature, her


    blow of wind through her fur, the soft cushion of forest floor and the scent of grass mix dirt, the cool


    temperature of the night, the full moon and the scattered stars on pitch ck canvas and the sound of


    nature around her. The trio practically wasn¡¯t looking at where they are heading, they blindly followed


    the silver wolf. She headed straight up a mountain deep in the forest. A small body of water, pooled in


    the middle of rocky mountain, like arge hole and rain water formed narrow streams that eventually


    filled up the hole. She must have been very familiar with the mountain since she head straight to the


    waterbody and dipped herself in it. The trios slowed to stop andy down, snouts on their palms,


    mesmerized at Selena when wolf are actually supposed to be admiring the moon on full moon night like


    tonight. She swam happily in the water, dipping her head down from time to time. After a while she


    came out and shook her body to dry herself, away from the others. She than started climbing the rocks


    up and rested herself on a t surface about 100 meters above the others. She looked up at the moon


    with great admiration. From down, the moon shine through her, reflecting at her silver coat. Orion


    cooed like a puppy at the view of a magnificent wolf while Grandpa Kai and Zaden didn¡¯t take their


    eyes off her. The shiny ball on the sky made her happy, happy like you just found your hidden


    Christmas present. She let out a howl. Zaden blinked a few times, when he finally remembered the full


    moon and joined her, followed by the other 2.


    They stayed the same for hours before Selena stood up, jumping from rock to rock and strolling away


    from them. They stood up as well and followed her from distance. She never paid attention to the 3 this


    whole time nor protest against their presence as well. She walked gracefully towards an empty field


    where she took pleasure rolling over grass, chasing after frogs and fire-flies. The field lead to anThis belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    opening and Selena¡¯s house backyard is visible. The silver wolf continued walking, eventually stopping


    to y with something or brushing the grass with her palm and then back again on its track. It took a


    leap and reached the roof of ground floor. Another leap to enter the window of Selena¡¯s room. Zaden,


    Orion and Grandpa Kai shifted to human form and ran to Selena¡¯s room, naked. They slowly opened


    the door and saw a human figure in the dark room, on Selena¡¯s bed, with her arms tucked under her


    head as pillow and body coiled into fetal position, her favorite sleeping position to Zaden¡¯s knowledge.


    Her skin wasn¡¯t visible but from how smooth the curves are, it is clear that she is also naked. So, this is


    what her routine has been all these years!!! She must have been able to contain or zone out or control


    the mind of her own wolf to never manifest but when it¡¯s full moon, her body reacts to it causing a panic


    attack like symptom and she consumes pills to fall asleep. Once she is asleep and loose grip of her


    wolf, shees out to y.


    They shut the door slowly and turned around to see Leonardo and Aaron, frozen at the staircase.


    ¡°Is she here?¡± Leonardo


    ¡°Is she safe?¡± Aaron, both asking in chorus. The 3 exchanged look and decided to exin to them


    through their mind link, an ability werewolves in pack poses, a way ofmunication.


    Soon, they got dressed and sat down with a cup of coffee. It was 5 am in the morning. They exined


    the core of Selena¡¯s issue, that she is a werewolf and that she is an active gene after 5 generation or


    more of inactive gene, and that her mother suspected so and also about the moon birth mark. Aaron


    and Leonardo was still in a frozen state when all 3 had fallen asleep on the couch itself. They had a


    long sleep after a beautiful full moon night., so did Selena. They didn¡¯t wake up again until it was 5pm


    that day. Once Selena is awake, they showed her the video proof Aaron took yesterday night and


    exined to her with much excitement and amusement of where they went through and what she did


    yesterday, turning to question each other once in a while


    ¡°Did you see how her fur radiated the moon shine?¡± Orion to Grandpa Kai. Zaden was exceptionally


    quite due to the internal battle he was facing. Selena closed her mouth with her palm as she reyed


    the video again and again and again. After a while, she ced down the handphone. From the corner


    of her eye, she can partially see Zaden staring coldly at her, waiting for her logical exnation. She


    didn¡¯t have any and she was embarrassed. She stood up, walked past him, avoiding any contact at all


    and went to Daisy¡¯s room. She stayed there till it turned dark.


    Aaron wasn¡¯t home ever since they woke up and Leonardo is sitting on the swing silently, with his


    thought drifting to few years back. Zaden saw him but he didn¡¯t know exactly what to say, he was


    hoping Selena woulde to fix the situation but she didn¡¯t as well. Finally, he got fed up with waiting


    for her and went to Daisy¡¯s room. He gently knocked on the door but there was no response. He


    opened the door with cautious and when he saw a big lump on the bed, he smiled and walked in more


    comfortably.


    ¡°Are you asleep?¡± he sat next to the lump on the edge of bed. A small portion of the thick duvet moved


    up and down, indicating yes. He grinned wide at her childish act.


    ¡°You saw the video, right?¡± It moved again, up and down.


    ¡°And where is your logical or scientific or psychological ormon sense or¡­¡± he said in a calm voice,


    stretching each word, surely mocking her. She pulled down her duvet in a lightning speed as she sat


    up.


    ¡°OK FINE¡­ I give up, there is no exnation on my part, yet¡± she pointed her finger at him and started


    talking fast without caring about her messy hair, falling to cloud her face. Zaden stretched out his hand,


    gentlybing the hair off her face with his fingers while she kept on going.


    ¡°Not yet. How am I supposed toe up with an exnation within hours after finding out that I AM a


    werewolf. But I have a theory. You see, the dodo bird, dinosaurs are all creatures that are now extinct


    but proven to have lived. There are also other creatures like megalodon, the giant kraken squid and


    even mermaids are still under controversy and¡­ and¡­ and¡­ who knows, maybe they are still alive in


    depth of ocean. Werewolf must have been one of this creatures and¡­and¡­¡± by this time Zaden had


    already cleared her face andbed through her hair length. He then ced his hand on hisp


    supporting his chin, listening to Selena with a twinkle in his eye.


    ¡°and¡­ you guys are thought¡± he cut off Selena¡¯s word


    ¡°WE are thought¡± he corrected her. She threw a piercing nce at him


    ¡°WE are thought to be mythical when you¡­ I mean we¡­technically you, because I wasn¡¯t hiding. I was


    living like how every human should. But you, you and your vige, hiding in the middle of..¡±


    ¡°You know your rambling, right?¡± Zaden cut her off again. She froze for a moment while her eye


    flickered at the ground, thinking is this considered rambling.


    ¡°And you know what I do to rambling woman, right?¡± her eyes snapped to him


    ¡°Choose one¡± he demanded while he pointed 2 fingers in front of her. She recalled the options, either a


    tight p or a kiss, and she didn¡¯t want either. She bite down her lips as she tucked a strand of hair


    behind her ears and swallowed her saliva.


    ¡° Good girl¡± He retrieved his finger with a gentleman smile


    ¡°Now, you had warning from us days ago that you are a werewolf and still, you are shocked and


    apparently, losing your mind. Can you imagine how your father and brother would be right now?¡± she


    dropped her head down while fiddling with the duvet.


    ¡°Exactly, you have no idea. Who do you think canfort and coax them, me? Orion? Or Grandpa


    Kai?¡± he asked her with now a serious expression and a frown. It made Selena feel a burn in the mid of


    her chest. He then stood up, pulled away her duvet, grabbed her wrist and pulled her behind him till


    they reached front door. He came to a stop, pulling Selena forward, past him, making her stop exactly


    behind the door. She looked back at Zaden for assurance and he smiled at her. She peeped her head


    out of the door frame, with a wide eye filled with fear. Leonardo noticed and turned to look at her. There


    was a moment of silence


    ¡°Dad¡­do you hate me?...¡± deep inside, she had the fear of rejection. All of a sudden, another head


    peeped above hers. It was Zaden and he mouthed ¡®Please¡¯ to Leonardo. Leonardo stretched his hand


    towards her and wiggled his fingers, signaling her toe. She walked slowly towards him. He pulled


    her arms to sit on hisp. He sighed out low


    ¡°Daisy and I meet when we were working at an ice factory and fell in love, instantly clicking. I believe


    she told you this¡­but what she didn¡¯t tell you, is that I was a school dropout, a gangster and a bad


    tempered man. She changed me in all ways possible but my temper persisted. Until, one day, in a


    hospital room, she handed me a little thing, wrapped in yellow towel. It was a baby girl, hands soft as


    peeled and roasted potato, skin so fair that it turned red when you cried and the eye that could bring


    the whole world to their knees.¡± Heughed while ying with Selena¡¯s fingers.


    ¡°Who am I? A poor, 6 foot man who grew up in orphanage. I kneeled in front of you, not once but


    almost every day when you stretch your hands up, demanding to be picked up. You had pooped,


    peeped and threw up on me. You have even hit me with a stone from roadside because I refused to by


    ice-cream.¡± Now, even Zaden wasughing behind the door. Selenaughed as well but a drop of tear


    collected on the corner of her eye.


    ¡°Such a naughty brat you were. I had no choice other than to submit to you, I had never lost my temper


    anymore. Due to that, my boss promoted me to work with customers, we saved a lot of money. That


    wasn¡¯t enough, I wanted my baby Bambi to be treated like a princess, so I went to your mother and told


    her I wanted to start a business. She asked what I can do? Filthy mouth, I had to answered ¡® I can


    make coffee¡¯. She opened a caf¨¦ with breakfast and lunch. The 2 woman in my life, steered me to what


    I am now, I consider myself to be very lucky¡± he went silent for a minute


    ¡°Selena, I am not filthy rich or highly educated yet I am the king of the world because of you two. So, I


    don¡¯t care if you are a wolf or a Bambi, all I want is for you to be happy. If I can endure you working in


    that zoo and return home stinking shit, I can endure this too¡± Selena punched his chest before resting


    her head on his chest. Thosest world shot arrows to Zaden¡¯s heart.


    ¡°So, I am basically worthless, unwanted, ident, and so on?¡± Aaron walked from the yard towards


    them. He had been waiting by the corner for them to finish.


    ¡°Hey there little fox!!!¡± he teased Selena as he ruffled her hair, earning a tongue out from her. Zaden


    walked away from there

 CHAPTER 19

    CHAPTER 19


    Rays of sun creeped through the curtains, hitting Selena¡¯s face. Her once pitch ck vision is now red.


    She slowly blinked open her eyes. Another morning, only today, she is a werewolf. She sat down on


    Daisy¡¯s bed, stretched her body till she felt weak and loose. After a long hot shower and dressing up in


    a blue jeans and ck t-shirt, she went downstairs. At thosest steps, she heard a series of door


    shutting sound made her wonder what is happening outside. She strolled over to the front door to see


    Orion loading luggage and they are all dressed up casually, ready to leave. Climate took a drastic


    change as dark clouds gathered, about to pour down any minute now. Selena¡¯s heartbeat increase,


    apanied by her widening eye. Is this where she parts with her family? Shepletely forgot about


    returning to Mountain Manuka and none of them brought up the topic after they came here. Will she


    ever wake up in her father¡¯s hands? Will she ever y basketball with Aaron again? Her heart is


    throbbing with pain. Right at that moment, Zaden turned around to see her, standing frozen at the door


    with a terror and agitation in her eye. He started walking towards her and soon the other 2 noticed and


    followed him


    ¡®I¡¯m not going. I am NOT going¡­that¡¯s all you have to say. What can they do, I have my father and


    brother. They can defend me, don¡¯t they? Wait, how are they supposed to fight 3 werewolves? Wait, I


    am a werewolf, I can do that. Ya right, a werewolf that can¡¯t shift at her will, pfff¡¯


    She mentally pped her face. Zaden was already standing about 10 feet in front of her with a merely


    there smile and both hand thrust into his jeans pocket while the other 2 beaming with a toothy grin


    behind him.


    ¡°Bye, take care¡± the grin on other 2 dropped spontaneously after Zaden¡¯s word. Selena exchanged a


    ¡®what the fuck¡¯ look with Orion and Grandpa Kai. Zaden turned around, not waiting for a response and


    walked away. Orion grabbed his arm


    ¡°Zaden, what are you doing?¡± he questioned


    ¡°Going back home without Selena¡± he said


    ¡°What if Ozraines looking for Selena?¡± Orion


    ¡°Who is Selena?¡± Zaden winked at Grandpa Kai and Grandpa Kai understood his decision.


    ¡°You can¡¯t do that. This¡­she¡­ I mean¡± Orion stuttered not knowing what he is trying to say


    ¡°I can and I just did. From this moment onwards, no one in Mountain Manuka pack is going to mention


    Selena¡± he exerted his alpha aura and immediately the whole pack at Mountain Manuka was


    mindlinked the order. Orion felt helpless as all the energy in his body drained out in a second. Right at


    this very moment, he understood that he didn¡¯t just like this women, he loves her. He ran as fast as he


    can towards Selena and hugged her tight, wishing this moment willst for an eternity. He tried to hold


    back his tears. Selena on the other hand, didn¡¯t know what to do. She wanted to stay but then it hurts


    so much seeing them leaving. Why is that? She is more attached to her father and brother, known them


    longer and shared with them more than anyone back in the mountain, yet it hurts. Maybe its just a


    temporary feeling.


    Orion let go of Selena, didn¡¯t look into her face and walked away to the jeep. Grandpa Kai held her


    hand and ced a kiss on it


    ¡°My dear, would you do me a favor?¡± he asked


    ¡°Yes Grandpa¡± somewhere in the deep corner, she wished he would ask her toe


    ¡°Promise me you will be happy, every day¡­every minute¡­every second of your life¡± the next second,


    a string of tears fell down her cheeks as she sobbed. Grandpa Kai has known her for such a short time,


    yet he still wishes for her best, nothing against her will, like her mother does. As if the mother earth felt


    her, the clouds split up and started pouring down. She gently hugged Grandpa Kai onest time.


    ¡°I hate you¡± Orion who had just passed Zaden, said through his gritted teeth, loud enough for him to


    hear it. Zaden¡¯s back was facing Selena. He pinched his lips. Grandpa Kai followed Orion to his jeep


    and now Zaden is standing alone in the yard, heads dropped down. He doesn¡¯t have the guts to look


    into her eye one more time although his heart and entire system begged him to. He lifted his heavy leg


    and took a step forward, when a sweet voice stopped him.


    ¡°Wait¡­¡± Selena¡¯s voice came from far behind. She ran to him, dismissing the rain around her. She


    stood behind him, not too close thou.


    ¡°Why?¡± she had to ask. He remained silent, still with heads down. She took a few steps to close the


    gap between them and gently grabbed his arms, not exerting any effort to turn him around.


    ¡°Zaden¡­¡± she whispered and he turned around with red eye but a calm face, looking down at her. His


    eye followed her facial features, her maic eyes, curly locks, her sharp nose, her eyebrows that


    frames he eye perfectly and her round rosy lips. When will he ever see them again? When will he ever


    embrace her to sleep again? When will he get another chance to kiss her again? The thought ripped


    his heart apart. He stretched his hand to grab her neck and her waist, moved forward and leaned to


    kiss her lips, head slightly tilted to side. Aaron who was standing at the porch, felt a sudden urge to


    protect his little sister. He took a step with balled fist when Leonardo held him back


    ¡°Wait¡± Leonardo hushed him


    ¡°What? He is kissing her¡± Aaron said


    ¡°Look at her, she is not fighting him¡± he said low. Aaron looked one more time. Selena had her hand on


    his waist and another cupping his cheeks. Aaron frown dropped to rx and he withdrew his steps.


    Selena was showered with million drops of cold raindrop but a drop of hot raindrop stood out, running


    down her thumb which is holding his cheeks. There was no lust in the kiss, he didn¡¯t try to open her


    mouth, he didn¡¯t exert any dominance, just a gently nibble at her lips while he moved his head to pullT¨ºxt ? N?velDrama.Org.


    her lips gently and repeat his act, again and again and again. Orion saw this from the jeep rear mirror.


    He gritted his teeth and gripped the steer wheel tightly till his fingertips were white. A pain stabbed his


    heart.


    ¡®He ruined everything¡­ he took her away from me and now he dares to kiss her¡¯ he thought to himself


    Zaden let go of her lips, but kepting back for a peck. His forehead is now resting on hers and his


    hands has moved to cupped her chin


    ¡°I¡¯m going to miss you, baby girl¡­¡± he sobbed while the rain did the perfect job of hiding his tears.


    ¡°Why?¡± Selena had a hard time bringing the single word out


    ¡°You don¡¯t need Mountain Manuka or Samrat or this werewolf life¡± he gave her another peck.


    ¡°Everything you need is right here¡­ I don¡¯t want to rip you away from that. After reading Elisa Mitkoi


    manuscript, I don¡¯t want to give you to Ozrain. He probably will kill you, just like he did to Elisa. You will


    be more peaceful and happy here. You have to erase this past weeks from your memory, understood?


    Forget us¡­¡± he gently caresses her cheeks with his thumbs and ies another peck. Her tears


    flowed uncontrobly, although she didn¡¯t understand why, and she nodded.


    ¡°You wille see me right, whenever you are in city?¡± Selena whispered and a sharp sob came from


    him as he shook his head no.


    ¡°Zaden¡­¡± she looked at his eyes which is closed now


    ¡°If I see you one more time, I won¡¯t be able to leave¡­ Nothing should interfere with your life, including


    me¡± he opened his eye and held her hands, brought it up to his lips, cing a kiss on its back. He took


    steps backward with eyes now focused on hers and stretched her hand as far as possible before letting


    go. He took a few more steps backward before turning around to his jeep. Selena dropped to her knees


    to the ground, she felt weak within. Leonardo and Aaron ran towards her and kneeled next to her,


    hugging her.


    Zaden couldn¡¯t stop his tears throughout the drive to Mountain Manuka. Thank god, Grandpa Kai


    wasn¡¯t here. He needed these few hours alone. Orion on the other jeep, has all his feeling pent up


    because Grandpa Kai was there. His throat closed up, covering up his tears. That night, Selena was in


    her father¡¯s arms on the rocking chair, eyes wide awake till early morning, before she felt too tired to


    handle her situation and slipped to sleep. Zaden was also awake tillte night in his room. The image


    of her face in the rain kept hunting him, turning into an unbearabale weight. She clearly showed that


    she wanted toe with them, but he had to do this, for her own good. Time will cure the pain, it


    always does. He then decides to go to her room at second floor, where she was imprisoned in his


    embrace a whole night. Hey down on the bed which still had her smell and finally was able to get


    some sleep. Orion on the other hand, shifted into his wolf and ran wildly through the vast of Mountain


    Manuka till his paws hurt, easing the pain within him. Tears flowing out as the wind blows it away


    through his fur. He didn¡¯t get to say a proper good-bye to her. He shouldn¡¯t have left things the way he


    did. He went to the highest point and let a painful howl to the Moon Goddess that even the Goddess


    would have dripped a few drops of tears for him. Its his habit to share his pain to the forest. Only the


    trees, the wind, the night creatures and this highest point of Mount Manuka knows the depth of his


    pains. He shares them to no one else.

 CHAPTER 20

    CHAPTER 20


    Weeks has gone by, 3 weeks and 2 days to be precise. Nothing has changed much, as the 3 of them


    had hoped. Selena didn¡¯t attend her graduation, she took the certificate from Dean Pete and continued


    working at Wildlife Research Centre. Her mood doesn¡¯t seem to change much. Every day, she will go


    to work,e back home, eat and sleep, living a robotic life despite her friends effort to cheer her up.


    The career that she loved once doesn¡¯t give her joy anymore. It looks like the moment Grandpa Kai


    asked her the promise, the same moment her life fell apart and a dark curse engulfed her.


    It wasn¡¯t any better at Mountain Manuka. Zaden and Orion rarely talked and Make became the


    second beta to substitute her big brother during his absence. Zaden kept himself locked up in second


    floor room most of the time, no one is allowed into the room, even cleaning is not allowed. Most of his


    essential belongings have slowly shifted to this room. He keeps minimal contact to anyone including his


    mother. Hees out to run his business, attend to vigers need and then goes back into the room.


    He didn¡¯t shift to his wolf in these past weeks, making him grow weaker and weaker. Grandpa Kai and


    his mother Ruth often get together to basically sigh, thinking about their alpha.


    Orion, on the contrary, never shifted to his human form and roamed the Mountain, following wherever


    his feet brought him to, hunting small animals when he is hungry and sleeping by the waterfall where


    he firstid his eye on Selena. Xavier and Sitka wille looking for him once in a while, try talking


    some sense to him but all they get is silence.


    One rainy afternoon, Selena was sitting in the porch swing alone, wrapped in a nket, staring nkly


    at the spot where the 2 jeep drove awayst time. Leonardo came with 2 cups of hot chocte. She


    refused at first but Leonardo insists. They worked sip by sip through the cup


    ¡°I don¡¯t like you like this¡± he started a conversation. Selena looked at him in confusion


    ¡°Selena, you aren¡¯t happy anymore. Something is taken away from you, isn¡¯t it?¡± Selena remained


    silentT¨ºxt ? N?velDrama.Org.


    ¡°Go back to the Mountains, baby Bambi¡± Selena stiffened her back


    ¡°What?¡± Leonardo nodded


    ¡°Zaden said I won¡¯t be happy there¡­¡± she said low


    ¡°And I didn¡¯t like Marine Biology. That didn¡¯t stop you, did it? I didn¡¯t like you hiking unknown mountain,


    did it stop you? I didn¡¯t think it was safe for you to go to gun shooting ground, that didn¡¯t bother you, did


    it? ¡° he made Selena think


    ¡°Baby, you are the one that should decide what makes you happy, not me or Aaron or Zaden. You can


    be happy scooping cow dung as long as you like and decide to do it¡± Leonardo


    ¡°But I want you 2 to be with me¡± Selena


    ¡°This house is thest memory of your mother. But if I¡¯m ever ready, I wille there, be with you.


    Plus, we don¡¯t know if you would want to stay there forever now, do we? Just solve one issue at a time


    and we will see where it leads you to¡± Selena eyes dropped to floor, thinking every word her father said.


    He stood and sighed


    ¡°A bird¡¯s nature is to fly. You don¡¯t expect it to do so, sitting in a cage. You know what a wolf is? It is


    nothing but a grown puppy let to run free. Its time to set you free¡± He pinched Selena¡¯s nose making


    her smile. She took the whole night to think and got ready the next morning. Aaron was rebelling the


    idea but Leonardo made him understand.


    She arrived at the Mountain Manuka foot about 10 am and started to climb, alone, through the forest.


    It was 6pm when Zaden was sitting by the window looking out at the garden where a the dinner is


    being served when he noticed a figure walking fast behind the tall tree hedging. He narrowed his eye, a


    glimpse of ck curly locks caught his wolf eye as it widened noticeably. He ran out of the room, down


    the staircase and to the front door where he saw the now boiling Selena and Make trying to calm her


    down


    ¡°What sort of wolfs are you? You didn¡¯t notice a woman walking through your territory?¡± she threw a


    sharp re at Zaden and walked pass him.


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± Xavier just came to stand next to Make while Sitka already ran to get Orion.


    Make just opened her mouth before she got cut off


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong? I¡¯ll tell you what¡¯s wrong. I am a non-member of your pack and your guards out there


    didn¡¯t notice me passing through your territory.¡± She walked to the ground floor room where she stayed


    last time, as if she owns the entire ce.


    ¡°Is that a bad thing?¡± Xavier who followed her, questioned. She mmed her bag to the single bed and


    clutched her waist


    ¡°It is when I got lost in the mountain, walking in circle for 3 hours, I mean, 3 fucking long hours, before I


    realized that I have been walking in a circle. It could have been avoided if only your guards did their


    ¡®JOB¡¯ properly. Do you guys have an SOP, standard operation procedure?¡± she is still fuming while


    Make and Xavier turned slowly to look, cocked their eyebrows at Zaden.


    ¡°What did I do?¡± he asked them


    ¡°You gave out order to never mention Selena, Alpha Zaden! That¡¯s why the patrol team didn¡¯t inform


    her arrival¡± Make said while she crossed her hand over her chest.


    ¡°Shit. What if she got attacked by a bear?¡± Xavier isn¡¯t helping at all.


    ¡°So, it was you!!!¡± Selena crossed her hands across her chest and pouted her lips with anger.


    Thankfully, storming footsteps diverted her attention. Sitka and Orion came to stop in front of her door,


    panting for breath. Orion looked so dirty with mud on his body and wearing nothing but a loose shorts,


    as he just shifted to human.


    ¡°And where have you been?¡± Selena questioned him with the same fume. Before he could answer, she


    took over


    ¡°Let me guess, having fun with some bitch on forest floor?¡± holly shit, she shouldn¡¯t have said that.


    Zaden crossed his hand over his chest and leaned on the door frame with a devilish smirk


    ¡°Lock her up¡± Deja-vu


    ¡°With pleasure¡± Orion cracked knuckles on his hand as he walked over, carried her over his shoulder


    and walked out of the room. Selena punched and kicked him with all her might


    ¡°Let me down!!! I don¡¯t like to be manhandled. This is against human rights and god, when did youst


    took a shower?¡± She shouted making Zaden smile, after weeks.


    ¡°Za¡­den¡­ I am hungry!!!¡± she manage to say it out loud before Orion took the first step on the


    staircase. He froze and turned around, showing Selena¡¯s butt to the group. His eyebrow cocked as if


    questioning Zaden.


    ¡°Put her down¡­¡±Zaden said with a smile and Orion obliged. She neatened her shirt, chin up and


    stumped her feet towards the buffet table. Orion wanted to follow when Make stopped him


    ¡°Go get a bath Orion, you smell like wet dog!!!¡± They all got together at the same rocky corner they


    used to gather, only Jeffry,Jewel, Oliver and Noah are missing. After weeks, Zaden and Orion is almost


    back to normal in eating and speaking that made the whole pack back to normal. Selena was the magic


    that they needed, only this magic could also be a curse between the alpha and his beta.


    Sheter went to the room on second floor. Although Zaden tried to force her to morefortable room


    at third floor, she insisted. She noticed the room was a bit different with man¡¯s clothing and toiletries.


    She slowly turned to re at Zaden


    ¡°So that¡¯s why you didn¡¯t want me in this room¡± she stated the obvious. Zaden rubbed his palm over his


    neck.


    ¡°Sorry, I will get it cleaned up¡± Selena gave him a fake smile, chasing him away from the spot.


    She then took a bath and came out with wet dripping hair and a towel around her chest when she


    heard a knock on the door


    ¡°One minute, please¡± she quickly got dressed and opened the door a little and peeped out as her eye


    landed on Orion


    ¡°Hey¡± he said


    ¡°Hey¡­¡± she opened the doorpletely, letting him in. He looked nervous while Selena casually found


    a small towel and started rubbing it to her hair. She sat on her bed, crossed leg, still busy drying her


    hair


    ¡°Sit¡­¡± she pointed at a chair, further in front of her and he did. He thrust his hands into his jacket


    pocket and pulled out a bar of chocte. He stretched his hands to Selena and she did the same to


    hold the chocte


    ¡°What is this for?¡± she is unwrapping the chocte


    ¡°One, because I didn¡¯t get to say a proper goodbye¡­and two, I missed you¡­soooo much¡­¡± he said in


    low husky voice


    ¡°But I am here. Your number one reason doesn¡¯t fit¡± she took a bite of the chocte. The moon light


    made a drop of water on her neck glimmer like crystal and caught his eye


    ¡°Still, I hate how we said goodbye¡­All because of Alpha Zaden, we couldn¡¯t disobey him, werewolf


    thing, you know¡± he shrugged. She nodded


    ¡°Thanks¡± she said. He wanted so much to ask about the kiss between Zaden and her but the possible


    answer strike terror within him. It was just a kiss and he still had a chance to win her, he thought. But if


    she realize that she likes Zaden after his questioned, that could take the worse turn. She is a virgin and


    any good kisser can shut her down. It doesn¡¯t necessarily mean she fell in love with him.


    ¡®This is just an attraction, Selena. I will win your heart and we will be together for the rest of our life. I


    promise you that, my love¡¯. Orion thought to himself


    They were talking about random stuffs after that until Selena asked for a favor.


    ¡°Orion, can you teach me how to shift?¡± Orion thought for a minute, does he know HOW to shift? It


    came naturally and he never paid attention on step by step of how to shift.


    ¡°Hmm¡­sure, we will try tomorrow¡± he said with hesitation. He left to his room on third floor in the next


    15 minutes. Selena was too tired and she fell asleep within seconds. At the middle of night, about 3


    am, another knock woke her up. She shuffled to the door and opened it. Zaden with a clear, sober face


    was standing there, running his fingers through his hair while Selena could barely open her eyes,


    messy hair and a loose t-shirt with shorts. She had only 1 eye barely opened.


    ¡°Can I sleep here?¡± Zaden straight to the point. Selena shook her head NO and he sighed low


    ¡°Selena, I couldn¡¯t¡­I couldn¡¯t fall asleep in my bed.¡± He said with a hint of frustration.


    ¡°Where is your room?¡± with that, they switched bed. She was sleeping in Zaden¡¯s king size bed, only


    utilizing ? of the space while he slept in her bed, covering most of the surface area avable. It¡¯s not


    like they never slept together before but after the good bye kiss, it doesn¡¯t seem like a good idea to


    sleep together.

 CHAPTER 21

    CHAPTER 21


    The next morning, Zaden walked into his room to find Selena buried under his duvet, still sleeping. He


    smiled at the view. He then changed his dress and went out for his usual run. Later, Selena woke up


    and went down to her room, taking a bath and getting ready as usual. She learned during breakfast


    that there is a meeting inmunal room and her attendance is a must. Sheter walked together with


    Make to themunal room. Make seemed very nice and was very informative, willing to help


    the newer. Selena also learned that she is the second beta, while Orion, her brother is the beta of


    pack, being advisor to alpha. Her job is to be helpful to beta. Sitka and Xavier are deltas, they take care


    of territory and the ill one in the pack. Make found her mate a few years back, one of the pack


    member as well, Nelson and she have a daughter named Dahlia. All 5 of them grew up together, in


    Mountain Manuka. Finally, they arrived at themunal room and opened the door. The alpha team,


    Mother Ruth and Grandpa Kai was already there, except for Alpha Zaden. Selena scanned the room


    looking for Zaden when she felt goosebumps on her back and she turned to look behind her. Her eye


    landed on Zaden, standing next to her, his chest touching the back of her shoulder.


    ¡°Good morning everyone, appreciate the punctuality¡± he said with a mild smile. The 3 of them walked


    into themunal room, till they reach the bar counter and the girls took a seat on the tall bar stool,


    while Zaden leaned on the bar counter with his back. Selena waved at Mother Ruth and she smiled


    with a nod in return. Grandpa Kai started briefing Selena¡¯s issue and details regarding the manuscript


    I am in pain, in great pain. I can feel my baby dying, his soul slipping off my grip every second. His


    heart beat slowing down to almost none. It has been days, my baby is suffering for days. An innocent


    soul who nevermitted any sin, have not even harmed an insect yet he is suffering a painful death.


    Why?


    What sin did I do to deserve such a heartless punishment? I loved a werewolf, is love a sin? If so, God


    is the one to be punished for giving me the ability to love a beast. God, including your Moon Goddess


    are the one to me, not me or my baby.


    Mark my words, you will pay. You will pay for the slow death my baby and I suffering now. You will


    regret the minute you left me to die, tied up here, on this tree. I will reincarnate, somewhere in the


    corner of the world and I wille to find you


    I will hunt you down, every single one of you. I will rise again from the peak of mountains, with my own


    army of loyal followers, raging with red eye. When I do, you are no longer the king of beast. Mark my


    words, your kingdom is no more yours. You will be spell bound and beg for death under my feet. Under


    my feet¡­.


    ¡°ording to Elisa¡¯s manuscript, her killer is a werewolf because they worship Moon Goddess. Left her


    at the woods, tied up to a tree and ording to The King Samrat¡¯s tale, he left Elisa in a hut, deep in


    the forest. She also said that she will reincarnate somewhere in the corner of the world. My friend, Oz,


    has been travelling around the world for the past 200 years. I think its Oz who killed her, although I am


    completely confused why he would do that. He was madly in love with her¡± Grandpa Kai said, Zaden


    turned to look at Selena who is currently dangling her feet under her chair and sipping on a ss of


    orange juice.


    ¡°Now we have 2 choice. One, we can send her to Ozrain, which will benefit our pack¡± Selena coughed


    at Zaden¡¯s word but recollect herself in a few seconds. Orion and Make seemed to be tensed at the


    idea as well.


    ¡°We can make peace with the Samrats, be one of their alias. There will be no more threat of


    attack and we may even move out of this valley for a better future. But Selena¡¯s life will be at risk. We


    don¡¯t know what Ozrain¡¯s true intention is in finding her. In other words, we sacrifice her for the


    betterment of our pack.¡± Selena scanned everyone¡¯s facial reaction, none of them showed any


    emotion. Of course, she is a neer and they have no attachment towards her and that freaks her


    out.


    ¡°Second option, we can hide the fact that she is a Samrat and continue to live the life we have in our


    hand now. Maybe, and there is a thin chance that maybe, she would be strong enough to defend us


    against the Samrat pack, but highly doubtful.¡± Not to mention the pack, Selena wasn¡¯t sure she can


    defend even herself. Selena scanned the room again and the member¡¯s face had a hint of rxation.


    ¡°Now, I will give you all 30 minutes to rethink the choices and then we can vote. Think carefully,


    please.¡± Zaden turned his back to them, looking straight at the stacked bottles behind the counter.


    Selena leaned to the side, aiming at his ears


    ¡°Are you born with a nut loose or did you recently hit your head hard?¡± Zaden turned his head to her


    and red her.


    ¡°I told you, don¡¯te back, it will be ugly. I¡¯m ready to fight for you, baby girl but it¡¯s not fair to drag the


    whole pack in. Besides, it¡¯s a chance to see how ruthless my pack is¡± he whispered to her ears and


    then casually took a sip of coffee. Selena puckered her lips to the side with a sharp sigh, being


    annoyed with Zaden. She turned to Make and about to ask something when Zaden stretched his


    hand, held her cheek between his finger making her pout and turned her face to him


    ¡°Don¡¯t you influence my pack with your Bambi eye. Shu¡­¡± he said seriously


    ¡°Then what am I supposed to do for 30 minutes? Think about sacrificing myself to Ozrain Samrat or


    maybe I should think how to defend myself, being 90% human?¡± she whispered back in irritation to him


    ¡°You know what my decision is, so I have nothing to do too¡­¡± he whispered back and this went on for


    the next 30minutes.


    ¡°Are they¡­I mean Samrats¡­attacking your vige?¡± he nodded and she rolled her eye with a sigh


    ¡°Have you forgotten how to talk or the cat swallowed your tongue?¡± she whispered, earning another


    re from Zaden


    ¡°When Samrat left to look for his baby, Queen Aira was in-charge of the pack. She was doing fine until


    one day, she fell sick. Apparently, Ozrain rejected their mate bond, kind of like divorce but for werewolf,


    like I told you before, it gets really painful and most wolf will die in the process. So, to save her, the


    elderly of the pack decides to mate her with their beta, Epsilon. He forcefully marked her when she was


    in her death bed, automatically making him the King¡± Zaden paused when Selena opened her mouth to


    question


    ¡°What is forcefully marking?¡±


    ¡°It a bite mark on your neck, without thedy¡¯s concern¡± Selena eye widened


    N?velDrama.Org: owner of this content.


    ¡°When a male wolf bites a female on her neck, it forms an invisible mark, alerting other males that she


    is taken and no one would dare to approach her after that. It also makes them inseparable¡± Zaden


    continued but Selena¡¯s eye didn¡¯t shrink


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry, a wolf will recover the bite in minutes but humans won¡¯t. That¡¯s why Ozrain didn¡¯t mark


    Elisa¡± Selena calmed down after that and nodded.


    ¡°Do you know why a Samrat is the king of werewolves?¡± he asked Selena


    ¡°Because he can be alpha to any pack¡­¡± she answered with doubts


    ¡°Correct, good girl¡± he pinched Selena¡¯s cheek, she swatted his hands away with a frown


    ¡°Is Epsilon a Samrat?¡± Zaden asked and Selena thought for a while before answering


    ¡°I don¡¯t think so, Samrats have only one child, right. So, there is no siblings or rtive to Ozrain¡± Zaden


    looked impressed


    ¡°Correct. So, how did other packs ept him as king?¡± she has no clue now and shrugged her


    shoulder with a downward lip curl


    ¡°At the time when Ozrain was the king, he fused together 5 packs of wolf into 1, making them the


    strongest of all other packs but he didn¡¯t use any threat or force to achieve that, it was mutual. Epsilon


    used this pack strength as a threat, if needed, attack other packs to make them bow to him. So that he


    can fused more packs together and keeps expanding his strength¡± Zaden stopped to walk to minifridge,


    took an ice-cream from it, came back to stand next to her.


    ¡°So, the more packs fused together, the more stronger he is and no one will rebel him being the king?¡±


    Selena asked with a raised eyebrow.


    ¡°Exactly. My ancestors refused to bow and they fled to this mountain, hidden from outside world. If


    Ozrain returns, he would be the king and we would be free from attack¡± Zaden took a spoonful of


    ice-cream and feed Selena. Orion was watching from far and his eyes were burning with anger.


    ¡°Why won¡¯t he return? Can¡¯t you just exin and ask him toe or resolve this issue more


    diplomatically?¡± she ate the spoonful of ice-cream. Zaden had just done thrusting a spoonful of ice-


    cream into his mouth.


    ¡°He refused to return until he finds his daughter, technically, you¡­¡± he feed her another spoon


    ¡°If we give up on you, yes, the pack will be free as wolfs are supposed to be and protect other wildlife in


    this mountain. But after reading the original manuscript, there is no guarantee he would take care of


    you. There has been a¡­prophecy¡­from a sorcerer in Samrat¡¯s pack. An heir will emerge from under


    the mountains, take over the Samrat pack and vanish the king. Since then, they have been searching


    nooks and crannies for you. Our pack fits the prophecy, so naturally we are at risk.¡± He wiped a drop of


    ice-cream on the corner of her lips with his thumb. At this point, the whole leader¡¯s pack noticed how


    Zaden and Selena interact. They were more interested in them then thinking about their decision.


    ¡°No no...¡± she jumped off her chair and everyone¡¯s attention was on her now.


    ¡°I can¡¯t let you and your pack suffer because of me. I can simply go back to my father and this whole


    issue will be swept away¡± she said directing at the whole pack.


    ¡°Oh, how I wish I had thought of that before¡­¡± a sarcastic mumble came from behind her but she


    ignored him.


    ¡°No, if Ozrain ever finds you out of a pack, you and your family are at danger. You don¡¯t know him, he is


    fierce and will do whatever that is needed to get what he wants¡± Grandpa Kai stood up from his seat.


    ¡°If we keep her, how is she supposed to defend us?¡± Sitka finally spoke


    ¡°Simple, she is a Samrat by blood. She must have the same ability Ozrain has. Maybe, just maybe, she


    can prevent harm to our pack. But for that, she must be trained to be a normal wolf first, control her


    wolf and explore her full potential. That might take along time¡± Zaden answered with a sigh. There was


    a long silence.


    ¡°Can we keep her?¡± Make finally broke the silence, making Zaden smile. The others followed her


    ¡°Ya, let¡¯s keep her.¡± Zaden used to treat her like a small girls but now she felt more like the pack¡¯s pet.


    ¡°So, that¡¯s settled. Now, any suggestion about her training?¡± Zaden asked and they were bombarded


    with so many suggestion that it was hard to pull out aplete sentence.


    ¡°Ok ok¡­wait. I will help her with shifting, Make will¡­¡± Zaden was distributing each of their


    responsibility when Selena cut him off


    ¡°But Orion already promised to teach me shifting¡± He turned to look behind him with a cocked eyebrow.


    Selena shrugged her shoulders


    ¡°I requested as a favor from him yesterday¡± she added. Zaden turned his head to Orion. Orion wore a


    cool smug look. Shifting involves momentary nudity and he is notfortable with someone else


    teaching her that but given current situation, he doesn¡¯t have a choice.


    ¡°Fine, then I will be building her stamina, Sitka will be in-charge of fighting skill. Grandpa Kai can assist


    in discovering her abilities. Make and Xavier, please teach her to hunt and on territorial basics.


    Clear?¡± Everyone nodded


    ¡°Good. Disperse¡± and he walked out of the room, ignoring Selena since he is pissed off. She didn¡¯t


    notice him, she is swarmed by other members, weing her and so on.


    Again, that night, Zaden came to her room and knocked on her door.


    ¡°What, you still can¡¯t sleep?¡± Selena asked him. He nodded with a pursed lip. The truth is, he needed


    her scent to fall asleep after being in her room for 3 weeks. Yesterday, she slept on his bed, leaving


    behind enough of her scent but he is still standing in front of her door because he wanted to brainwash


    her into choosing at least Make to teach her shifting. Only one w in the n, he doesn¡¯t know how


    to begin and was cornered when Selena came to a conclusion that he can¡¯t sleep. She sighed and took


    a few step out of the door, walking past him. He grabbed her wrist making her jerk back. He pulled her


    to the door, looked sharp at her while leaning on the door frame. She imitated him and leaned on the


    opposite side, staring back at him. Zaden is a very strict, not so talkative, rarely smiles and can be


    ruthless when situationes along. He is well respected for that and no one in his pack, including the


    other 2 on the other side of mountain would dare to challenge him. But this little fox in front of him was


    different, she takes pleasure in irritating or challenging him and that normally makes him chuckle in


    amusement. They stared at each other for a while before Zaden gave in


    ¡°Stay¡­talk with me for a while. Then you can go to my room and mess up my bed¡± he said with his


    usual low, deep husky voice.


    ¡°Aah¡­ the alpha¡¯s order. Unfortunately, I am not your pack member to follow blindly¡± she said as she


    wiggled her eyebrow.


    ¡°Please¡­¡± her reaction softened as her eyes trailed to the floor


    ¡°Do I get to question?¡± she asked, making Zaden hung his head and let out a sigh


    ¡°Fine¡± he grabbed her shoulder, turned her around as he gently pushed her inside. Orion who came to


    visit Selena with another chocte bar, saw Zaden pushing Selena inside and closing the door behind


    them. His eyes blurred with tears. He stormed out of there, shifted to wolf and let a painful howl that


    send a shiver through Selena¡¯s spine. She snapped her head, towards the window, eye wide open.


    Zaden noticed her sudden change. He facing her back while hands holding her shoulder, pulled her


    closer to his chest.


    ¡°That¡¯s Orion¡­ He had been doing that a lottely. A screeching howl of pain. Are you scared?¡± His


    last words were very close to her ears as his warm breath tingled her ears. She rolled her neck, trying


    to knock off the sensation his breath gave her. She nodded.


    ¡°It¡¯s ok¡­ he will be fine. He always does¡± Zaden turned round and walked to the 3 seater couch at her


    room and sat down sluggishly. Selena sat on the other end, with her one legs folded and another


    dangling over the side, body tilted to face Zaden


    ¡°What do you mean?¡± She asked with confusion. Zaden ran his fingers through his hair and sighed out


    ¡°Remember what I said about mate? That most wolf die if rejected or the mate dies? Well, he is one of


    the survivors.¡± Selena¡¯s eye flickered


    ¡°He found his mate at 18 years old, right after their first shift. She, a brte with blue eye. Very


    beautiful and talented hunter. We always have her on patrol duty because of that. One night, during


    patrol, she came across poachers, slitting the skin of an elephant. She attacked them but they came


    well prepared with a rogue by their side¡± Zaden said in low voice


    ¡°Rogue?¡± Selena


    ¡°Yes, werewolves who has been cast out by their packs. They have no way of surviving without a pack,


    most of the time takes evil path to make a living. That rogue shot She right in the heart with a silver


    arrow. She died painfully on the spot¡± the pain and sorrow was evident in Zaden¡¯s eye, even Selena felt


    really sad. Zaden ran his palm over his face before leaning down toy his head on Selena¡¯sp.


    ¡°What he went through was unbearable even to by standers. He would scream in the middle of the


    night, from the pain. Make and I used to sleep with him just to prevent him from killing himself. But


    still, he managed to hurt himself, he would burn his hands, cut his arms and once even bite his tongue


    and ended up in hospital. Thanks to werewolf power, he managed to heal back. It was horrifying even


    for me that I prayed to Moon Goddess, never toe across my mate, ever in my life¡± his painful vibe


    protruded to Selena. She ran her fingers through his hair, calming him down instantly. She dropped all


    her questions, listening to his breathing that finally reached a rhythm suggesting he had fallen asleep.


    She gently moved away from him, recing herp with a cushion, tip toed out of the room. She


    rxed a bit and started to walk to the third floor. She stopped abruptly when she heard another


    footstep approaching. It was Orion. At first, Orion was surprised to see Selena but then, he realized


    that she is not sleeping with Zaden and joy filled his heart


    ¡°Hey¡­¡± he said casually


    ¡°Hey¡­ I heard your howl. Are you ok?¡± she was a few steps above Orion, making her slightly taller


    than him.


    ¡°Ya I¡¯m fine. Don¡¯t worry about it. What are you doing here?¡± she froze, not knowing whether it is the


    best idea to admit the truth but she sort of had no choice.


    ¡°Hmm¡­Zaden came to rify something and fell asleep in my room. So, I am heading to his¡± she


    pointed up, in the direction of Zaden¡¯s room. Orion nodded but his face hasn¡¯t rxpletely


    ¡°Do you want a cup of hot chocte?¡± Selena offered because ording to her theory, hot chocte is


    the cure to everything. Just like that, they ended up in the kitchen, drinking hot chocte, in the middle


    of the night. They were talking andughing at each other, effectively enlightening Orion¡¯s mood.


    ¡°How are you going to teach me tomorrow?¡± Selena asked out of curiosity.


    ¡°Well first, we induce panic attack¡­ and then¡± Selena threw a spoon at him before he could continue.


    He caught it with anotherugh. They went on and on about random topics.


    ¡°I walked to her room and heard her screaming at the top of her voice, so I banged on the door. After


    like so long, her BOYFRIEND came to open the door. Behind him, on the floor, behind some stacked


    up desk, Jewel was on the floor with tears running down her cheeks. I immediately cursed the boy and


    pped him, dragged him to staircase across the ssroom and pushed him down. How am I


    supposed to know that they were having sex? What would you do if you saw your friend like that?¡±


    Orion wasughing hysterically at Selena and her recollection of memory


    ¡°First of all, I would look at her leg position or at least ask her what happen¡± he said between hisughs


    ¡°She was wearing a mini skirt, Orion¡± Selena said with irritation but it made himugh even louder


    ¡°So basically, I have spoiled my reputation and any chance of getting a boyfriend. After high school, I


    simply lost interest in the whole idea¡± Orion¡¯sugh came to a stop sudden stop as he stared at Selena.


    ¡°Wait, you never had a boyfriend?¡± She nodded


    ¡°Then you are a virgin?¡± Selena snapped her eye up, looking directly at Orion¡¯s eye. She didn¡¯t make


    any movement and any other reaction on her face. Orion brought both his palm to close his mouth and


    said behind the closed mouth


    ¡°Oh my god, you are a virgin. You are a virgin werewolf¡± he said, earning a swat on his arm.


    ¡°Shut up!!!¡± she eximed


    It was 3 am when they both climbed up to third floor. Orion¡¯s room came first and he waved a weak bye


    to her


    ¡°Get as much rest as possible. Zaden can be pretty tough in his trainings¡± he said and she continued


    her walk, past a few more room before entering Zaden¡¯s room. She fell asleep almost


    instantly

 CHAPTER 22

    CHAPTER 22


    Zaden came to his room, brushed his teeth and got ready for a morning run before he went over to


    Selena and woke her up.


    ¡°Selena,e on, time for your training¡± he grabbed her arms and shook her gently


    ¡°Hmm¡­.five more minutes¡± she said in a low, husky voice before turning the opposite side and coil up


    ¡°Selena¡­ its already 5am. Wake up¡± Zaden said sternly. She sprang up to sit


    ¡°Zaden, you are a psycho¡± she said calmly and fall back to bed. He rolled his eye and grabbed her by


    waist, pulling her towards him


    ¡°Za¡­den¡­I only slept at 3 am¡­please¡­¡±he already pulled her out of the bed, into his arms, in a bridal


    position. She snuggled into his chest earning a low growl from his chest. His body warmth isn¡¯t helping


    at all as she snoozed a bit more.


    ¡°What were you doing till 3am?¡± he questioned, already reaching from under Selena to twist the


    bathroom door knob


    ¡°Talking with Orion¡± she said hidden in his chest. Zaden cocked his eyebrow, unsatisfied with her act.


    He dropped Selena into the bathtub, already filled with water. She struggled to resurface, wiping her


    face off water


    ¡°ZADEN!!!¡± she shouted


    ¡°You have 15minutes to meet me at the yard¡± He walked towards the door and before getting out of


    there, he turned his body slightly.


    ¡°Don¡¯t force me to give u a bath¡± he said low making Selena eye widened. She pped the water


    making a big chunk ssh out to her face and effectively suffocating her again. She got ready as told


    and went to the yard, where Zaden was already waiting for her. She had a terrible bag and dark circle


    under her eye as she yawned.


    ¡°Lesson number one, always get enough sleep. As a wolf in front line, you have to be ready at any


    time¡± calm but stern. She looked up to him, chin up


    ¡°Is that so? I assume you won¡¯t be knocking my room door in the middle of night anymore?¡± she said


    with a raised eyebrow and ran past him. He smiled


    ¡°I will try my best¡­¡± he mumbled to himself before following her.


    It has been two hours since they started running. Orion wasn¡¯t joking when he said Alpha Zaden is


    tough. He made her run steep hills, jumping over at least 25 fallen trees and running across deep


    streams. She gave up in the middle of their way back home. She plopped to the ground, t back and


    panting for breath. Her thin pink shirt is wet with sweat, showing off her sports bra. Zaden clutched his


    waist before bending down, offering her his hands so that she can get up. She swatted him away. She


    already slowed him down a lot today


    ¡°You go first, I wille backter¡­¡± she said through her breath. He thought for a while and sat next


    to her


    ¡°I can¡¯t leave you alone in the forest. We resume after 10 minutes break¡± she whimpered at his order.


    ¡°Zaden¡­please¡­you can sleep in my bed today¡­¡± she begged him, still t on the ground.


    ¡°Are you bribing me?¡± he asked with a frown and she nodded


    ¡°Oh lord, you need to learn more than stamina. You don¡¯t bribe the big boss, Selena¡± she stretched her


    hand up to his face and fumbled to pinch hold his chin.


    She shook it left to right ¡°Honey, you can bribe anyone as long as the bribe is irresistible¡±.


    He bit his lower lips as his eyes red at her lips ¡°There is a more irresistible bribe but you are too


    innocent for that¡± he replied her. A clench in his stomach says that she is about to win.


    ¡°Come, you can sit nearby, I need to continue my training. I can¡¯t allow you to weaken me¡± he scooped


    her up in his arms and walked away from the clear opening, back to forest


    ¡°What is that?¡± she asked with her arms wrapped around his neck, referring to the bribe. Her ponytail


    swaying in sync to his movement


    ¡°I¡¯m not that stupid, baby girl¡± he said as he jumped over a tree trunk. They came to a clearing between


    the woods where another smaller waterfall, probably originating from the mother waterfall she saw


    months ago. All the other pack leaders are already there. Zaden ced Selena under a tree and


    jogged to others.


    ¡°Sorry, Bambi slowed me down¡± they chuckled before Zaden signaled to begin the training. Ropes


    hung from the top of the waterfall which isn¡¯t in view. Zaden took off his shirt, exposing 8 packs that are


    now glistening with sweat drops. His stomach t and a beginning of V was visible. His arms bulging


    even without any stress. All the others except for Make had taken off their shirt but Zaden was


    exceptional, standing out from the crowd. Selena¡¯s mouth parted a little to control her breathing as her


    eyes raked up and down his body. All 5 stood under the ropes, grabbed it with all force and started


    climbing up


    ¡°Shit¡± Selena mumbled. She subconsciously stood up from ground and paced slowly towards them.


    She is expecting someone to fall anytime now, as her hands opened beneath them, as if she could


    catch them if they fall. She stood there, head up with her eyes squinted against the sunshine as the


    pack leaders climbed up the rope. Slow and steady, with their arms at full force holding on to the rope


    and their barefoot entwined with the rope below their body, they pulled themselves up to the top. Then


    disappeared. Selena stood there, looking at the top intensively, trying to find at least a hint of them. A


    pair of hands grabbed her shoulder behind her, making her jump.


    ¡°Boo!!!¡± Xavier said at her ears. She turned around


    ¡°Where did youe from?¡± she asked him


    ¡°From the stairs behind there¡± Xavier pointed to the left of the waterfall. Selena looked back and forth


    between Xavier and the stairs a few times


    ¡°Why didn¡¯t you use that in the first ce?¡± they all chuckled


    ¡°That is not ssified as resistance workout¡± Sitka said. Selena let out a sheepishugh


    ¡°You don¡¯t expect me to do that, do you?¡±


    ¡°Absolutely yes¡± Make said making her eye widened


    ¡°Not today¡± Zaden said.


    ¡°You know what, you guys are just big bad wolfs. Bullies, may I add. Call my grandpa, I¡¯m going with


    him. He might have more mercy towards me then you guys.¡± Selena stormed away from there, still


    rambling curses and statement as she walked into the forest. The leader¡¯s pack followed her with a


    giggle from behind.


    This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.


    All of a sudden, Selena came to an abrupt stop. She felt a sudden struck in her heart.


    ¡°What happen?¡± Zaden whispered to her ears, as his warm breath fanned her ears. Selena closed her


    eye, trying to knock the pain in her heart off, while all the others were asking thousand question next to


    her. She subconsciously muffled all their voices as her ears focused on a sound that she can¡¯t really


    put her fingers on. She rolled her neck in the most sensuous way with a low moan escaped her lips,


    disturbing the men¡¯s around her as they swallowed their saliva. She concentrated more and she finally


    narrowed it down, a snake¡¯s slither. It is amon creature in woods, why is she hearing that?. She


    snapped her eye open once she narrowed the location, to her right. She turned her head and Zaden


    saw her ck eye with silver rim. Her wolf is surfacing. Selena walked pass Zaden, her finger¡¯s grazed


    across his stomach, slow and steady, trying to track the hissing sound in her head. She came to a stop,


    standing straight in a sexy way, tilted her head to the side with her hands straight by her thighs and a


    devilish smirk on her face, nothing like the sweet Bambi they knew. A yellow and white phyton, caught


    in a clump of fallen branches and trees. Selena slowly crouched next to it, with one knee closer to


    ground. She exerted an order from her heart


    ¡®Remove the logs¡­¡¯ as if a remote control was switch on, Make, Orion, Xavier and Sitka started


    moving to remove the branches, logs and tree on top of the phyton. Zaden could clearly feel they have


    disconnected from him, he is not the alpha anymore. Selena was slowly caressing the phyton while her


    head tilted side. A hint of lust in her eyes. The more logs removed, it came clear that there were


    another ck phyton below. The yellow and white was wailing for help to save her mate and Selena


    knew it, as she felt the raging lust they had at the moment. The team stood up, observing the situation


    when Zaden sense them reconnect and mindlinked them to leave. They followed. The phytons slowly


    encircled Selena¡¯s legs. Zaden was rmed and took a step forward when Selena turned her head


    behind to look at Zaden, another devilish smirk bloom on the corner of her lips, stopping Zaden at his


    spot. The phyton let out slither after slither as it kept circling up and up. Her breathing hiked up, her


    chest rose and fall and her eyes shut as the phytons transferred their lust to her. Zaden grabbed a


    branch above his head and held it tight, controlling himself from pouncing on to her. She rolled her


    neck, let out a sensuous giggled and went on biting her lower lips as the ck python¡¯s body grazed


    her inner thigh. Zaden breathed heavily as he felt a clench down his butt and his manhood is erect now.


    She arched her body, bringing her chest forward when both python crossed her breast, squeezing them


    with their powerful muscle and she let out a moan apanied with a chuckle. Zaden¡¯s mmed his


    back against the tree behind him as his breath became uncontroble, his chest heaving and he broke


    into sweat. Even after reaching her head, the pythons doesn¡¯t seem to retrieve. They continued ying


    with her body, in and out of her hair, circling her now open arms which tortured Zaden, standing behind


    her. He licked and bit his lips. He threw his head back as he felt a cramp creeping up his thigh, he was


    close but he hold on to himself. Not the same scenario with Selena or precisely, her wolf. She came


    right there and the scent of her wetness snapped Zaden as he also came. The pythons slowly


    retreated, clinging on the tree branch above her head. She watched with the signature smirk as the 2


    creature slithered on further and further away from them. Her eye faded back to light grey and the


    smirk vanished. She shook her head snapping herself out of daze and checked down when she felt a


    wetness. She was confused of why she would have had an orgasm in the middle of woods. She turned


    around to see the now calming down Zaden. His erection hasn¡¯t subsidedpletely and caught her


    eye.


    ¡°Zaden!!!¡± Selena eximed. Zaden stretched a finger at her, requesting a minute since his breathing is


    not back to normal, before he finally spoke


    ¡°Never ever have I thought I would cum watching a woman and pythons¡± he then walked to the


    waterfall, followed by Selena. They stood further apart in the water, getting cleaned up


    ¡°What happen?¡± Selena asked. Her voice filled with worry


    ¡°Your wolf came out to y and believe me, you and your wolf, are two extreme ends of pole¡± Selena


    stared nkly at him with a frown

 CHAPTER 23

    CHAPTER 23


    Zaden was pacing left and right in front of Grandpa Kai, who is sittingfortable on a couch


    ¡°I¡¯m telling you. Thank god, I send the others away. I don¡¯t think the boys would have had that much of


    self-control in them¡± he was clearly angry. Grandpa Kai ced a finger on his lips as he observed him,


    quietly.


    ¡°I mean, her friends told me she can tame animals, not enrage them¡± he continued after a pause


    ¡°Would you say something?¡± Zaden is now venting


    ¡°Are you hiding something from me?¡± Grandpa Kai asked with a narrowed eye and cocked eyebrow


    and Zaden froze in his steps. He raised his shoulders in question.


    ¡°Something important. About Selena?¡±


    Zaden dropped his head to the floor with his hand thrusted into his pocket. He indeed had a hidden


    secret but never intend to reveal them, at least not yet. Grandpa Kai exhaled sharp


    ¡°Fine¡­Its none of my business but I will tell you one thing¡± Zaden raised his head to face him,


    interested in what he was about to say.


    ¡°Her friends said she could tame animals but they didn¡¯t know how she does it. She transfers vibration


    or aura from herself to the directed animal or individual. In order to do that, she has to be calm first,


    then throw that calmness towards the animals. I knew this earlier but from today¡¯s stunt, I can


    understand that she doesn¡¯t only impose her vibration, but also, must have been able to absorb some


    from her opponent. For example, she absorbs your anger before imposing her calmness to you, you


    understand?¡± Zaden nodded with a frown, trying to connect the dot


    ¡°If in anyway, she expels the anger she absorbed, then the animal around her must have raged back,


    don¡¯t they? So, the bad vibration must have disappeared within her, correct? In other words, she must


    be able to control herself and other at the same time for this to work¡± Zaden nodded gently


    ¡°But she failed today, why?¡± Zaden frowned to Grandpa Kai¡¯s question


    ¡°I don¡¯t think her wolf directed that lusty vibration out. She must have absorbed the lust and gave those


    python calmness or courage. Something else in her vicinity amplified that little absorption she did.¡±


    Grandpa Kai bloomed a yful smile and wiggled his eyebrow


    ¡°Shut up¡± Zaden blushed once he understood what he meant. It was he who aroused her, not the other


    way around.


    ¡°Son, belief me, I will¡­but her wolf won¡¯t. 24 years it has been sleeping within her, not showing itself


    when she is awake. She came out to y today. Which means her wolf knows something that I


    don¡¯t¡­¡± Grandpa Kai. Zaden blushed even deeper now.


    ¡°Oh how I wish I was young¡­¡± Grandpa Kai wiggled his walking stick as he walked out and left Zaden


    alone to his thought.


    When he came out, all the pack leaders was surrounding Selena, re- enacting the python event.


    ¡°You should have seen it, each python was at least 8 inches thick.¡± Sitka on her right


    ¡°You were caressing them as if they are a bunch of toy poodles¡± Make on her left.


    ¡°And the way you tracked them, high five girl!!!¡± Xavier at her front while Orion stood smiling behind her.


    She doesn¡¯t look excited, in fact she looked nervous. Zaden approached them and cleared his throat


    ¡°Aren¡¯t you supposed to be training her?¡± he pointed at Make. Selena is now all bathed and fresh,


    ready for the day


    ¡°Yes I am, we are waiting for lunch. I¡¯m taking her toke zone today.¡± Zaden nodded when a thin


    figured woman came along, informing them that the lunch is ready


    ¡°Is this woman a human?¡± Selena asked, pointing at the maid who prepared lunch today


    ¡°No, she is an omega wolf. Why do you ask?¡± Orion replied


    ¡°Nothing, is just that alldies in werewolf..¡± she got cut off by the whole group coherently, except for


    Zaden.


    ¡°She-wolf¡±


    ¡°Ok, fine, SHE-WOLF in yourmunity..¡± she got cut off in chorus again


    ¡°Pack¡±


    ¡°Would you let me to talk already? All the she-wolfs in your pack¡­¡± now Zaden had to cut off her


    ¡°OUR pack¡­¡± all the 5 looked at him in shock.


    ¡°She needs to be in our mind-link. I think that will increase Selena¡¯s, as well as our safety¡± a spark of


    joy twinkled in their eyes. Make stood up jumping and hugged Selena tight.


    ¡°How can you have 2 alphas in a group, I mean a pack?¡± she asked through Make¡¯s hug. Make


    let her go to look back at Zaden with the same doubt.


    ¡°You are not an alpha, you are a Samrat. There is a difference. You are not thinking about taking over


    my pack, are you? Even if you do, I think I can defeat a little fox in a pinch¡± he said with smug look.


    Selena was offended but at the same time overly happy that she has been epted. She ran to Zaden


    and gave him a tight hug, surprising even him. She then whispered to his ears ¡°Thank you¡­You get to


    sleep in my bed anytime you want¡±. He smiled over her shoulders.


    They all sat down to eat. They have be sofortable together, like Selena was always part of


    the group and that she just returned from a trip. She never fails to make themugh. There will be


    another full moon in another 3 days and she will be announced as a pack member on that night, before


    they all shift and go for a run.


    During dinner, Selena was not there since Orion kidnapped her into the woods.


    ¡°Where you taking me?¡± Selena was panting for breath after running away from brick house


    ¡°You will see¡± he pulled her further into the woods, across closely knit trees and rocks. After a few more


    meters, the trees faded away, revealing a clearing with knee high green grass that swayed in wind. The


    grass smell hit her as she closed her eye, embracing the moment. Orion turned back to look at her


    face. His sharp chocte eyended on her lips and back to her closed eye. His heart raced at her


    sight which is turning to be a norm these days. He slide behind her and ced his chin on to her


    shoulder, making her giggle due to the tickle.


    ¡°Look¡­¡± he whispered. Selena opened her eye. Orion bent down to pick a log and threw it further in


    front of them. A burst of fire sparks. Her eye widened.


    ¡°Your wolf loved to y with firefly. I would like to see the magic again this full moon¡­ Arge


    magnificent beast ying like a puppy with firefly¡± instead of being happy, she wore a long face.


    ¡°What? Your scared of shifting?¡± He asked


    ¡°Scared to shift without medicine. I forgot to pack the sleeping pill¡± she sighed out. He turned her


    around, she has been immune to his bad boy vibe


    ¡°Do you know who is the most rapid shifter in this whole vige?¡± her eye trailed off to his chest, which


    is revealing a part of a tattoo.


    ¡°You?¡± she asked with doubt


    ¡°Yes, me. You have the best teaching you. We will get through this. You can even try now if you want


    to¡­¡± Selena thought seriously for a while


    ¡°Ok, what do I do?¡± he smiled and started taking his coat off, then his shoes and then his shirt. A


    beautiful phoenix emerged from under his white shirt. Selena looked at it carefully. She stretched her


    finger out, touched the tattoo gently. Her soft baby like finger send spark from his chest, up his neck to


    his head. He struggled but managed to control his mind


    ¡°Does it hurt?¡± Selena


    ¡°A little¡­¡± his voice turned deep and husky. He unbuttoned his belt when Selena spooked and jerked


    back


    ¡°What are you doing?¡±


    ¡°Getting ready to shift?!?!¡± he said with a frown


    ¡°Naked?¡± Selena asked with an exim


    This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.


    ¡°Yes, or else u have to rip an outfit every time you shift. That is my favorite shirt, I¡¯m not ripping it apart¡±


    Selena stared nk at him. He noticed how ufortable she is with being naked, after all, she is a


    virgin. He turned around


    ¡°I can close my eyes if you want to¡± he did as he said


    Selena reconsidered for a minute, checked the surrounding before she touched the belt of her chiffon


    skirt. An owl cooed and she dropped the idea of taking her clothes off.


    ¡°Orion, is there wereowl, werebear, weretiger and so on?¡± her eyes still flickering at the thick forest in


    front of her. Orion frowned and turned around


    ¡°What?¡± he eximed


    ¡°You know, like you shift into wolf, is there tigers, bears and other creatures like that?¡± heughed out


    loud


    ¡°It not werebear or weretiger. It is called shape shifters and we are one of them¡± he stifled hisughter


    ¡°Then can that owl be a shape shifter?¡± her eye is now focused up to a tree. An owl was sitting on the


    tree branches


    ¡°Are you serious?¡± Orion asked and she nodded.


    ¡°Selena, no one is going to look at your body. In fact, all of them will be naked for a few second before


    they shift. It is normal for us to see each other naked¡± he exined but she is not convinced. Finally, he


    gave Selena a homework. She was asked to be naked in her room and then go stand by the window.


    One step at a time.


    ¡°Here¡± just before they depart into the house, Orion gave her a chocte bar.


    ¡°Congrattions¡± he said with a smile that drewugh lines at the edge of his lips and corner of his


    eye. A full face of smile. Selena took the chocte with a smile too. He then leaned forward and ced


    a kiss on her cheeks. His beard and moustache managed to tickle her again


    ¡°Good night¡± he left her at the door and climbed the stairs. Selena stood watching him for a second. His


    wide body with tattooed arm and a light sway in his way of walking, making him intimidating then he


    really is.

 CHAPTER 24

    CHAPTER 24


    Selena then went to her room. She put the chocte bar on table with a m, paced back and forth for


    a few minutes. Determination took over her. She then locked the door and took off her dress, doubting


    her will power all the while. Before she could move to the window, a knock on the door send her to


    tremble for a moment. She wrapped a nket around her chest and opened the door slightly. Zaden


    was there, as usual leaning on the door. His eye widened at the site of Selena wrapped in a nket,


    messy hair, her shoulder reflecting beam of moonlight and her prominent corbone making Zaden


    salivate.


    ¡°Zaden, I need a minute, please¡­¡± he nodded in panic and she closed the door. He turned around and


    crashed his body backwards to a nearby wall, exhaling a deep breath which he didn¡¯t notice he was


    holding. Selena wore back her V-neck white t-shirt and long floral chiffon skirt before she zoomed to


    open the door. Once its open, she moved to side and stretched her hand inwards, as if inviting him in.


    ¡°What were you doing?¡± he asked


    ¡°Orion gave me homework¡± she said.


    He smiled and walked into the room. Selena, on the other hand, turned around to walk out of the room


    when she heard a low voice and a warm grip on her wrist.


    ¡°Wait¡­¡± Selena turned around, slightly surprised


    ¡°You are leaving?¡± Zaden asked with a frown


    ¡°Ya, it¡¯s a single bed. You can¡¯t share it and expect to be well rested, can you? Lesson number one,


    always get enough sleep¡± she pointed her fingers at him.¡± She smiled and turned around. Zaden


    desperately need her to stay and so he blurted out the next words and regret it, the next second itself


    ¡°Don¡¯t you have any questions?¡± she stopped and turned around with a grin.


    ¡°Just one¡± Zaden rolled his eye. When have she ever stopped with just one question?. With that, she


    walked into the room, grabbing the chocte bar, straight to windowsill and jumped up to sit there,


    swaying her legs. She unwrapped the chocte and took a bite. Zaden thrust his hands into his pocket


    as he walked to stand in front of her


    ¡°Where did you get that from?¡± he asked


    ¡°Orion gave it to me¡± she broke a small piece of chocte and feed it to Zaden. He smacked his lips,


    sucking down the piece of chocte


    ¡°So generous¡­¡± he mocked and Selena scowled yfully at him


    ¡°Go on¡­what is your question?¡± Zaden


    ¡°Your father¡­I have never seen him. Where is he?¡± Selena


    Zaden climbed up the windowsill next to her ¡°He is at the third vige, the furthest from us. My mom


    travels from that vige to here, once in a while to visit me. We formed our own¡­sort of military


    system. The mountains acts like a fort. Anyoneing must cross this vige first, where the leader¡¯s


    pack is situated. We will be taking the first hit, so to say and I can send message to my father and


    brother immediately after being hit, so that they will be prepared¡± Zaden exined


    ¡°You have a brother?¡± she sounded excited


    ¡°Yes, younger brother, Zeus¡± Selena nodded


    ¡°The second vige is where most fighters are situated. Its surrounded by water bodies and thicker


    forest, making it very hard to cross over. The third vige, where my parents, schrs, elderlies and


    gifted werewolves are ced. We need them if we ever need to restart from scratch. It takes days for


    even me to get to them, we need to ask triple permission and then cross over. Moreover, we try not to


    go there often and expose them.¡± Selena nodded


    ¡°Hey, I need to ask you something¡± It was Zaden this time and she nudged her head, signaling him to


    carry on


    ¡°What is your actual hair color?¡± she stiffened with a wide eye


    ¡°What? ck, why?¡± her face was evidently hiding something and it caught Zaden¡¯s eye. He slide off


    the windowsill, stood in front of her with his arms by her side, forming a cage


    This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    ¡°My hair is ck and my wolf is ck. I have a chocte eye with gold rim. When I shift to wolf, the


    gold rim engulfs chocte forming gold eye with chocte rim. Same goes for everyone here except


    for Make because she got her hair colored. Her actual hair she was born with is burgundy. Your


    eyes are grey with ck rim and your wolf has pitch ck eyes with silver rim but your hair is ck and


    your wolf is silver. Something doesn¡¯t add up. So, my dear baby girl, what are you hiding from me?¡± he


    slowly came closer to her as he spoke, nose to nose with Selena. One of his hand came up, cupping


    her neck. He tilted his head slightly, licking his lips. She froze in his touch and didn¡¯t attempt to move


    away. At that moment, she felt a burning desire between her chest for his lips, as betraying butterflies


    fluttered from her lower stomach.


    ¡°What do you want in exchange for your secret?¡± he whispered as his eyes flickered between her lips


    and her eye


    ¡°You don¡¯t bribe the master of bribery, alpha Zaden¡± she whispered and pressed her palm on his chest,


    pushing him away. He stalled behind limply, weakened by her delicate touch. Selena jumped down the


    windowsill and walked to door. Zaden was still in her way, she pushed him again and this time he


    chuckled. She repeated until he hit the wall next to door. She turned the door knob and opened the


    door.


    ¡°Do you have to go?¡± his head is now leaned back to the wall with a gentle smile on his face. His eye


    were begging her to stay. Selena bit her lips with a smile and proceed to walk out of there as fast as


    she could, in attempt to hide her blushing cheek.


    She closed the door of Zaden¡¯s room behind her and slide down the door to sit on the floor, still smiling


    to her self


    ¡®What is he doing to me? He is igniting a fire within me¡­ and enjoy seeing me burn¡¯

 CHAPTER 25

    CHAPTER 25


    Selena did want to be dumped into the bath tub again. She woke up early and got ready, went ground


    floor and made 2 sets of poached egg and bread toast. Zaden walked into the kitchen after done


    looking for her in his room.


    ¡°Well, well, well¡­Look who is up. You learn fast¡± he sat down and took a bite of toast in front of him,


    assuming it¡¯s for him.


    ¡°That¡¯s not for you¡­¡± she crossed her hand over her chest and cocked her eyebrow. Zaden looked


    around


    ¡°Then who is it for?¡± Selena stiffened as she has no answer for that. Finally, she decide to answer him


    by sticking out her tongue and sat down to eat. They manage to go for a little bit further before Selena


    break down. They went to rock climbing. After 3 climbs, they were about to leave when Zaden caught


    Sitka and whispered something to him. Sitka turned to look at Selena with a smirk on his face. Sitka is


    the smallest male in the pack but still, he is twice bigger than Selena,pleted with 6 packs abs and


    biceps. From what she has observed, he is the fastest runner and he can endure tough tracks with his


    light weight. Sitka signaled Selena toe and she did with a frown. Once Selena came in front of


    him, he took a defense stance


    ¡°What?¡± Selena asked


    ¡°Attack me¡± Sitka


    ¡°Why?¡± Sitka straightened his back and clutched his waist. The rest of the team are sitting under trees


    observing these 2.


    ¡°So that I can fight you. Zaden said you are a good fighter, soe on¡± he returned to his defense


    stance. Selena¡¯s eye and mouth widened as she turned to look at Zaden who is trying his best to


    swallow hisughter.


    Sitka started throwing punch before she was ready but she managed to dodge it


    ¡°Sitka wait¡± he threw another punch, she dodged


    ¡°He is lying¡± he threw a few more at a faster pace that I was difficult for her to avoid, so she crouched


    down with her hands covering her head. Sitka stopped and crouched next to her, grabbing her head to


    a hug


    ¡°Little Bambi¡± he said with through gritted teeth.


    ¡°Come on¡± he stood again, with hand extended to her. She swatted it away and stood up.


    ¡°I don¡¯t fight Sitka, he is lying¡± Sitka let out a chuckle and took a defense stance again.


    ¡°Sitka, that is a wrong move¡± Zaden shouted from far. They both frowned since none of them made any


    movement. How can there be wrong move when none are made? Sitka and Selena exchanged look,


    inspecting each other carefully when Selena finally understood. He is in semi crouching position. She


    stepped on his thigh, grabbed his shoulder and jumped to knee his face which hit his nose. Sitka cover


    his nose with a groan. When he opened his palm, Selena see red and she panicked. She ran to Sitka


    ¡°Sitka, I¡¯m sorry¡­Oh my god you are bleeding!!!Zaden¡± she cupped his chin, taking a more careful look


    at his wound. Zaden had just sprung out of ground


    ¡°You don¡¯t feel sorry for your opponent little Bambi¡± Sitka pushed her back and sat on top of her, raising


    his fist to hit her in the face. She caught his fist a few inches above her face. Ines another fist and


    she did the same. Now she had caught both his fist. He is definitely stronger than Selena so she


    wouldn¡¯t be able to hold on to his fist for long. She is in need of a counter act to shut him down, and


    she need it fast. She used his current weakness, bleeding nose. She pulled herself up and used her


    head to hit his nose.


    ¡°Arghhh¡­FUCK!!!¡± he dropped to her side, curved his spine and his fingers holding his nose. He is


    now turning to his left and right. Zaden had reached Selena, helping her to stand up and others were


    helping Sitka. As much as she wanted to help Sitka, she also recalled what he just said, you don¡¯t feel


    sorry for your opponent. She wasn¡¯t sure if he is an opponent or friend now. She stayed far from him,


    her eyes filled with terror. Zaden was holding both her arms from behind


    ¡°Are you ok?¡± she asked with a shaky voice. Sitka looked at her, stretched one hand out and showed


    her a thumbs up.


    ¡°See what you did?¡± she then swatted Zaden¡¯s chest


    ¡°What did I do?¡±


    ¡°You lied to him that I can fight. Now look what you have done¡± she raged with anger, veins in her neck


    bulging as she shouted at Zaden. Zaden held her cheeks between his fingers and turned it to side.


    ¡°Look what YOU have done¡± he emphasized while looking at Sitka. He seemed to have stopped


    bleeding and all 4 are looking at Zaden and Selena in awe.


    ¡°You might be small and not used to fight, but you are swift, slick and cunning, like a fox¡± Sitka said.


    Selena stunned for a while before she shook her head, to snap back.


    ¡°You need to get that fixed or you going to have crooked nose for the rest of your life. Come, fast¡± they


    helped Sitka up and they all walked to pack hospital. She was right, wolfs heal fast and they have to be


    quick in positioning the nose.


    They fixed his nose and got out of hospital, went to the brick house where Grandpa Kai was waiting for


    them inmunal room. Once they arrived, heid clear his concerns


    T¨ºxt ? N?velDrama.Org.


    ¡°Tomorrow is full moon. What are we going to do with Selena?¡± he asked


    ¡°She hasn¡¯t shift by herself, she refused to get naked yesterday¡± Orion exined to Grandpa Kai. A


    breeze of joy swept through Zaden¡¯s heart at Orion¡¯s word.


    ¡®So that was the homework yesterday¡¯


    He thought to himself as he looked at Selena, who is oblivion of his thought and focused on Grandpa


    Kai


    ¡°No, no. She can¡¯t shift here¡± Grandpa Kai


    ¡°Why not?¡± Orion


    ¡°Have you forgotten? She is a silver wolf. She will stand out if she shifts in front of the whole vige.


    We don¡¯t want them to know that she is a Samrat or elicit any doubt that she is special. Words will get


    out and soon, things will get out of control¡± Grandpa Kai said with concern. Zaden dropped his head


    thinking.


    ¡°We were supposed to announce her as new member tomorrow. Maybe we can just do that and don¡¯t


    shift¡± Make shrugged


    ¡°That doesn¡¯t work with her wolf, shees out only once a month, when Selena is asleep. I don¡¯t


    think her wolf is going to give up shifting tomorrow¡± Orion said, sitting on a table next to Selena¡¯s chair


    ¡°Does that mean we can¡¯t let her join the pack? Since she can¡¯t be there for every full moon¡± Xavier


    asked


    ¡°That is not an option too, we need her in our link so that we can warn her when there is a threat or she


    can contact us when she needs help¡± Orion


    ¡°But¡­I don¡¯t have my sleeping pills¡­¡± everyone turned to look at Selena.


    ¡°My wolfes out only when I¡¯m sleeping, right? I forgot to bring my sleeping pills, can she stille


    out?¡± Selena asked in confusion. Zaden stood up and paced back and forth. Everyone is focused on


    him for his final decision. He stopped


    ¡°We will have the union at 11.00pm¡­ No, we don¡¯t want anyone suspecting anything. 11.30pm,


    announce her as a new member, establish the link and then I take her away from there, just in case


    she still shifts when she is still awake. All of you will still be there, cover up for us.¡± Zaden said


    ¡°Zaden, 30 minutes is not going to be enough for you to go out of the mountains. You have seen her


    wolf. There is no way you can control her if she shifts. What if she starts running wild?¡± Orion


    questioned with a frown. Zaden turned to look at Selena, sitting in an extrarge single sofa, making


    her extra small.


    ¡°Do you remember what happen yesterday with the pythons?¡± he asked her, with cold tone


    ¡°No¡­nothing¡± she answered hesitated. Zaden snapped his head to Grandpa Kai


    ¡°Her wolf knows something that she doesn¡¯t know, isn¡¯t it? I will use that against her, to control and


    contain her¡± Zaden and Grandpa Kai exchanged looks. Grandpa Kai¡¯s frown subside to a puffed


    laughter at his lips once he understood what Zaden meant.


    ¡°Very well then, foolproof n, I believe. Good luck¡± Grandpa Kai bind his hand behind him and walked


    out. Zaden smiled as a blush crept up his cheeks. He turned around and there stood 5 of his pack


    members, looking utterly confused at him. Busted!!! He cleared his throat and walked away, ignoring


    them.


    That night, Selena was waiting eagerly for Zaden in her room. She paced through the room, the wall


    clock showing 1am but Zaden haven¡¯t showed up. Tired of waiting, she went to his room and knocked


    on the door. Zaden slowly opened the door, revealing only half of his shirtless body, squint eyes and a


    messy hair. Selena¡¯s eye widened


    ¡°You are sleeping?¡± she eximed


    ¡°What does it look like?¡± he answered in a husky voice, gravelly voice


    ¡°Why didn¡¯t youe down, like you usually do?¡± he shrugged. The truth is, he is aware that Selena is


    going to ask about the python incident and what her wolf know that she doesn¡¯t know. He already have


    her scent on his bed to make him sleep sound as well, so he didn¡¯t need to go to her room. She huffed


    in annoyance and stormed back to her room. Zaden smiled as he closed his door.

 CHAPTER 26

    CHAPTER 26


    The leader¡¯s pack with Selena entered the brick house after their usual morning routine with running


    and resistance training. The whole house was filled with a lot of unfamiliar faces, all hustling and


    bustling around, making preparations for the full moon night as Zaden has announced it to be a special


    full moon. Selena has already started feeling nervous. Orion sensed her


    ¡°Rx abit, would you?¡± he bumped his shoulder to her¡¯s. She managed toe up with a smile. All


    the other trainings have been postponed for today.


    ¡°Selena, dear, I need your help¡­¡±it was Mother Ruth. She held Selena wrist and guided her to the


    yard. Orion followed her while others had their own division to be taken care of. Selena followed and


    stepped out of the side door. Zoomed out, she saw a whole yard filled with kids of different ages. Some


    crying, some fighting, someughing, some jumping from table to ground and a boy pulling a girl¡¯s hair.


    ¡°Could you please watch after them, dear¡± Mother Ruth requested politely


    ¡°No no no no no¡­I¡¯m not good with kids¡± she said as fast as her tongue could move


    ¡°I am and I can help¡± she turned around to see Orion, standing like a savior behind her.


    ¡°Thank you dear¡± with that Mother Ruth left them and Selena didn¡¯t waste any time to pinch Orion on


    his stomach


    ¡°Why did you do that for? Look at them, it¡¯s a nightmare¡± Selena turned to look out.


    ¡°Ohe on, it¡¯s not that bad¡± he held her shoulder and pushed her into the yard. As soon as the kids


    saw them, they all shouted ¡°Orion!!!¡± and ran towards them, crashing Selena to Orion. Orion had to


    hold her waist to prevent her from falling down. With her in one hand, he picked up a girl from ground.


    ¡°Prewty girl!!!¡± It was the same girl Selena meet the day she came here and she still calls her preety girl


    with a ng. Selena gave a sheepish smile


    ¡°Selena, this is Sophie. Sophie, this is Selena, the pretty girl¡± he totally forgot about his hand around


    Selena and she got pushed closer to Orion by a group of boys. Sophie was busy pulling her wavy curls,


    like a spring. Selena gently pinched the chubby cheeks of Sophie. Within the next 10 minutes, Selena


    got used to them and they gotfortable with her. She ended up ying catch and hide& seek with


    them. Later, she read stories for them. It¡¯s not that she is not good with kids, she is one of them. Orion


    had to get between Selena and another boy, to resolve their fight.


    ¡°Orion, he is stubborn¡± she sticked out her tongue to that boy and he returned her the same, making


    Selena raise her palm to hit him and Orion held down her palm. The boy escaped


    ¡°Wow, easy there little fox, calm down.¡± he pulled Selena closer to him.


    ¡°Orion, you are teaching them a wrong concept. You didn¡¯t know what he did, if¡­¡± Selena rambled on


    ¡°Ok fine fine. Nap time¡± Orion shouted and all the kids wore a long face. He let out augh and pulled


    Selena behind him when an omega she-wolf helped usher all the kids to their living room. A row of


    bedsid down next to each other, forming a super big bed and the kids crashed on them. Selena and


    Orion sat next to each other on a fluffy couch at a corner. None of the kids looked tired or calm, the


    omega wolf struggled hard to keep them in line when Sophie ran to Selena and sat on herp


    ¡°Can I sleep with you?¡± she asked


    ¡°Oh dear, I¡¯m not going to sleep¡­¡± Selena said with her innocent Bambi eye to her


    ¡°Oh¡­then can you sing a luby for me, please¡­¡± she struggled with the words. Selena nodded and


    hugged her closer to her chest.


    ¡°You are my sunshine¡­you are my rain drop¡­¡± Selena begin to sing the only luby that she


    remembers. Her voice became deep and soothing, even for adult as Orion¡¯s eyes felt heavy and he


    started rubbing them. When the luby was finished, she hummed the song again and again until she


    fell asleep with Sophie in her arms, Orion hugging her from behind and his chin on top of her head. He


    too, fell asleep. Zaden walked by that area and saw the 3 sleeping on the couch. He felt a sudden pang


    on his chest, a dangerous venom called jealousy surged through him. He moved slowly towards them


    with a hand in his pocket. He gently grabbed Orion¡¯s hand and removed it from her waist, cing it


    back on his thigh. He than walked away. Not long after that, Mother Ruth came. She gently woke up


    Orion and the other kids. Orion blinked awake.


    ¡°Let¡¯s leave her alone. She needs as much rest as she could get, it¡¯s an important night for her¡± She


    whispered to Orion and other omega wolfs. It wasn¡¯t until 7pm when Make came to wake her up.


    She then took her to her room for a shower


    ¡°Here, alpha wanted you to use this¡± she handed over a tube of hair color remover. Selena huffed out a


    breath of annoyance after being busted. She did as told by Make. She walked out of the bathroom,


    a towel around her chest and head down. Lumps of silver hair from root to tip framed her face, giving


    her a bad girl vibe. She put on a white, knee length cotton dress with a zipper at back, just in case she


    needed to take off her dress for shifting. She wore a sneaker and packed some necessities like


    nket, water and aspirin that the pack doctor gave her. It might not be able to knock her off but can at


    least calm her down.


    She walked downstairs and before she reached thest step, Zaden in a ck cotton shirt and blue


    jeans, followed by Orion, Sitka, Oliver and Xavier came striding in. They gasped at Selena. The silver


    hair falling right at the front, framing her face made her eye stand out.


    ¡°Look at you girl!!!¡± Sitka eximed


    ¡°It¡¯s premature graying¡­¡± she said with doubt


    ¡°You mean scientifically¡± Zaden was mocking her with a faint smile. He fiddled with his sleeve, making


    sure it sits in its folds before he starts talking to Make and Selena. They took this really serious as


    they went through the n again and again


    ¡°Selena, it will take around 5 minutes for me to make the announcement and then we would need to


    flee. There is a wood nearby, I will shift into wolf and you would have to climb on me.¡± Zaden exined


    ¡°Shift? Can¡¯t we just run?¡± Selena eyes widened since she is intimidated with Zaden¡¯s wolf


    ¡°We won¡¯t have enough time, any dy could be dangerous.¡±


    ¡°Where are you going?¡± Make asked


    ¡°Lake Khalifa. Everyone would be focused on running furthest to the thirdke, so that they can hear


    Elder Vige howl, none will be nearby here. And Khalifake faces just inhabited mountain, so there


    should be no one there.¡± they all nodded but Selena kept quiet, looking at the floor


    ¡°Hey¡­don¡¯t worry. We will get through it¡­¡± Zaden said and she smiled. Then Make guided her to


    buffet. They all ate and talked more about their precautions when it hits midnight. Apparently, a group


    of fighters will always be ready at the brick house and surrounding the packs members so that no


    unwanted incident can take ce.


    Werewolves scattered around are now gathering up at the yard. Selena¡¯s heartbeat rose, bit by bit and


    she felt a chill creeping up her neck. She doesn¡¯t need to see the time, its 11.30pm, her panic attack


    had just kick started. Zaden pulled her up to stand on a rock, where everyone can see Zaden.


    ¡°Dear Mountain Manuka pack, it is my honor to have you all gathered up today, at another full moon


    night¡± the crowd cheered.


    ¡°We will all shift and run free today, to thirdke so that we can greet the Elder Vige but before that, I


    would like to invite a new member to our pack, Selena Brook¡± Selena grabbed Zaden¡¯s palm really


    tight. The crowd cheered even louder and immediately, a glint of sh crossed Selena¡¯s eye and she


    felt a surge of new found energy, filling her from within. She felt lighter and she felt every member of


    the pack, individually in her heart.


    ¡°That¡¯s it. Wee, baby girl¡± Zaden whispered over her shoulder with a smile on his face. Selena


    looked up and returned his smile.


    ¡°Oh he is so cute¡±


    ¡°Damn his smile¡­Why don¡¯t he smile more often¡±


    ¡°Our fierce alpha melting like ice-cream to a girl¡­¡± she heard multiple voices in her head and winced


    ¡°Don¡¯t worry, you will learn to control or ignore them¡± Zaden assured before pulling her behind him.


    ¡°Enjoy!!!¡± he said to the crowd just before surpassing them with Selena on his tail. She can clearly see


    some girls scowling at her. Zaden mind-linked Orion

    ¡°Take care¡± and Orion nodded. A few meters ahead and Zaden speed up to a run, unbuttoning his shirt


    in the process. He then took off his shoes and pants before shifting to a wolf, with in a second, right in


    time when they reached the woods. Selena stopped abruptly, when she suddenly felt a choke, facing a


    ck alpha wolf in front of her, under the moonshine. Zaden took a step forward and Selena fell on her


    butt to the ground, fear consumed her. Her eye focused on his now golden eye. Something calming


    about that eye.


    Zaden walked closer to her, and snuggled his head in the curve of her throat, making Selena hold her


    breath. He thenid down, t belly for her to ride on him. She stretched her arm, struggled to pull


    herself together before climbing onto the wolf and hugged its neck tightly. Zaden stood on 4 legs and


    sprinted off into the woods. The moon shone bright showing the path they needed to take, although


    Selena squeeze shut her eye.

 CHAPTER 27

    CHAPTER 27


    Paws thudding through the forest floor, cold night air swept through them as the beast in her hand


    sprinted around each tree in its way. Despite all this, Selena could only hear her heartbeat, beating


    loud in her ears. Tears rolled down the corner of her eyes and flew away with the wind, as her body


    ached so much and she is losing her strength to hold on. ¡°Zaden¡­¡± she whispered and her voice


    disappeared in the whooshing wind but Zaden heard her with his wolf¡¯s hearing. He pushed as much


    as he can. He felt her grip loosening just in time for their destination. Zadenid down and turned his


    body to gently slide off Selena. She did slide off him and sat on the ground, legs folded to one side and


    hands pushing the ground to support her upper torso. Zaden shifted back to human and wore jeans


    that he carried in his mouth. He then crotched next to her


    ¡°Are you ok?¡± he asked in low voice and a frown. She shook her head


    ¡°I can¡¯t¡­I can¡¯t breathe¡­¡± she barely had her eyes opened. Her breathing hitched and she was


    sweating profusely despite the cold surrounding. Zaden sat crossed leg and pulled her to hisp,


    embracing her to his chest


    ¡°Shu¡­it will be fine¡­you are a Samrat, remember?¡± Zaden tried to give her hope but she had be


    so weak, her head dropped limp in his arms as tears rolled down her cheeks. She could feel the world


    around her shrinking and her body turning numb, bit by bit. Her oxygen supply wasn¡¯t enough that each


    breath sent a sharp pain to her spine. She begged her suffering to end but only tears came out. Finally,


    her world started blurring out, bit by bit.


    ¡°It shouldn¡¯t be this hard¡­¡± Zaden whispered as a drop of tear rolled down his cheek. He bit his lower


    lip and hugged her dead-like body closer to his body.


    ¡°Come on baby¡­I have seen your wolf. You are strong¡­¡± he grabbed her palm and ced it over his


    cheeks. It was cold as ice. She was unconscious


    ¡°No no no¡± Zaden hugged her with his head in the crook of her neck, letting out sharp sobs as tears


    flowed out. He thought she is dead. In between his sob and depression, he felt soft caressing on the


    hair behind his neck


    ¡°Shu¡­shu¡­she is not dead, baby¡­ just cked out¡­¡± a deep husky voice made Zaden jerk back


    from her neck. The first thing he saw was her piercing pitch ck eye and the same devilish smirk


    ¡°Hi¡­miss me, mate?¡± she bit her lower lips while a finger ran through Zaden¡¯s eye, nose and then lips,


    slowly seducing Zaden with her electrifying touch. His eyes turned into gold before drooped his eyelid


    unconsciously, making her giggle like she did the other day. His wolf is out


    ¡°You knew?¡± his chest rosed as he gasped for air


    ¡°Of course I knew¡­who else would ogle every inch of me like you do¡­or know my exact scent¡­make


    me wet with just by their smell¡± she whispered to his ears.


    ¡°Is she fine?¡± he managed to ask through his temptation. She let out a pretend sob before shuffling to


    straddle on Zaden¡¯s hip. Zaden leaned back slightly with his palms on ground supporting him. Warmth


    spread from between her legs to his lower abdomen, tempting him to taste and take her, right there.


    She cupped his chin with both her hands


    ¡°I am here and you still want her? So sad¡­¡± she pouted at him.


    ¡°This is not right¡­we shouldn¡¯t..¡± Zaden was struggling to stay conscious


    ¡°We shouldn¡¯t what? What do you think we shouldn¡¯t do? Tell me, baby¡­¡± she ced one hand over


    his chest and another up, tracing his hairline with her fingers. He repeatedly swallowed his saliva,


    fighting his dry throat. He kept silent


    ¡°Maybe I can help you¡­maybe you shouldn¡¯t have hide the fact that you are our mate? Maybe, you


    shouldn¡¯t have masked your scent that was specially made for me by Moon Goddess? Maybe you


    shouldn¡¯t have contained your burning desire for me?...¡± she is now running her fingers across his lips,


    pulling them slightly apart. Zaden¡¯s long yearning for her touch made it tough for him to push her away.


    ¡°I had my reasons¡­I wanted her to love me before I reveal our mate bond¡± he said, kissing her fingers,


    not failing to send sparks to her body. He grabbed her neck, pulled her close and kissed her on the lips,


    passionately, making her moan.


    ¡°Let your scent out¡­¡± she whispered while licking his lips. He did as she demand. That instant, she


    struggled to stay put, rolling her neck and stretching her body.


    ¡°What¡¯s wrong, baby girl?¡± Zaden asked with a teasing smile as he bit his lips. Selena threw her head


    up, exposing her neck, Hetched on her moon mark, making her yelp. Hepped on crook of her


    neck, the spot where he would mark her one day while tip of his nose grazed gently at the bottom of


    her ears. She trembled, letting out a moan that is deeper than before. Within the next second, she cum


    on top of Zaden. Her sweet scent made his chest vibrate with a growl. He let out a small chuckle


    ¡°Not so naughty girl after all, huh¡­The alpha can make you submissive, don¡¯t he?¡± Zaden took his


    hand and ran up her dress, slipping between her legs to caress the fabric covering her delicate spot.


    She screamed before biting down her lips and her palms are now on Zaden¡¯s stomach, trying to endure


    the pleasure.


    ¡°Think before you climb up the alpha, naughty girl¡­you are just pup to me¡± he whispered, staring


    straight at her eye, enjoying every bit of her suffering. His words made her cum one more time. Zaden


    held her waist and swiftly turned around, dropping her to the ground and he is now hovering over her.


    She raised her hand to touch him but he caught her and pinned both her hand to the ground. He


    smashed his lips with her¡¯s, it felt so good being able to kiss her when he feels like so. He ran his


    tongue across her lips making her gasp and he took the opportunity to invade her mouth, every bit of it


    while their tongue dance together, relief each other¡¯s thirst with their saliva. Zaden let her hand go and


    grabbed her cheeks, making her pout, maneuvering her to hisfort, as if it is not enough, searching


    for more and more. He slowly moved to her jawline, nibbling and sucking while she writhed below him.


    He grabbed her breast from bottom, pushing it up to make her cleavage more prominent. Then, he


    kissed the curves, without removing her dress. In his head, a voice was begging to stop and slowly he


    did came to a stop


    ¡°What?¡± her low husky voice came


    ¡°We shouldn¡¯t¡­we shouldn¡¯t use her body without her knowledge, without her permission¡± he moved


    away leaving her frown in disappointment. But she quickly recovered and sat up


    ¡°Fine¡­¡± she said with the usual devilish smirk before standing up. She ignored Zaden who is rubbing


    his neck, trying to cope up with his need. For the first time, she looked around. They are sitting on the


    raised banks ofke Khalifa. An outline of a mountain across theke with glitters of star and a round


    vibrant moon above it and a vastke expands below. A genuine smile bloomed on her lips. She


    walked towards theke, taking off her sneakers, and then socks, throwing them around carelessly.


    She stood nearby theke, looked up at Zaden, who is now frowning at her. She than stretched her


    hand to back with an arched body, grabbed her zipper and pulled it down while the devilish smile came


    back to her lips.


    ¡°Selena¡­don¡¯t¡± Zaden is now standing behind her, stopping her hand. She looked up over her


    shoulder, biting her lips as she continued her act, unzipping the dresspletely


    ¡°Baby girl, it¡¯s hard for me to be in control¡± he almost begged her. Selena pushed her dress sleeve and


    let the dress drop down. She is now standing there with a ckce bra and panties.


    ¡°Who wants you in control now? It is also my body, I get to decide who gets to touch it, too¡­¡± she


    swept her hair to the side and front


    ¡°Help me¡­¡± she said. Zaden has been with omega wolfs but touching her innerwear made his hands


    trembled. He tried to steady his hand and grabbed her bra buckles, pushing them to open. He then


    slide his fingers up to push the sleeve strap away. It came undone and Selena dropped her head,


    facing theke as a blush crept up her cheeks, her mouth slightly apart as she held her breath. Zaden


    chuckled


    ¡°I thought you wanted this but you are just as shy as your human¡­¡± Selena bit her lips before taking off


    her panties and walking forward to theke, a foot into the water.


    ¡°Are youing?¡± she called for Zaden


    ¡°Selena you really shouldn¡¯t get into the waters, its cold¡± Selena let out a giggle and dropped herself


    into the water. Zaden quickly took off his pants before jumping into the water, fear filled him. They both


    resurfaced at the same time. Selena swam to him, cing her palms on his chest


    ¡°I have been sleeping for a month ande out only once the full moon is out. And now, I can¡¯t run


    freely as I used to for her safety. Don¡¯t restrain me anymore¡­¡± a sorrow filled her tone and her eye.


    Zaden grabbed her chin and pushed it up to look at him


    ¡°You can let her shift on other days¡­why does she have this panic attacks every time youe out?¡±


    Zaden said in low, soothing voice. She smiled as she move closer, his body warmth engulf her


    ¡°What do I get in exchange for this information?¡± she wrapped her legs around his waist and he bit his


    lips with a smile


    ¡°Naughty girl¡­¡± his hand found its way to her delicacy, running circles over her knub. She opened her


    mouth like she was going to say something but stopped in the midway as a gasp escaped her. He


    started circling faster and faster, driving her crazy before finally pushing a finger through her virginity,


    pumping ever so slowly. She gasped sharp as moans after moans escaped her lips. He kissed her lips


    as he pumped his finger faster and faster. She gasped at any gap she gets from the kiss but Zaden


    seems to have no mercy as he grabbed the back of her neck, leaving no space to breath. She came


    undone within minutes and fall t on his shoulder. Her raged breathing calm down slowly


    ¡°I remain locked for a whole month, piling up energy within her¡­she can contain it, no problem, till the


    full moon, when the moon light shines great energy to me¡± she looked up at his face.


    ¡°And I am like a diamond, radiating energy of moon, 5 times greater than what I absorb.¡± She falls back


    to his shoulder, her fingers drew circles over his arm.

    ¡°When that happens, my power bes too much for her. Her tiny body can¡¯t handle the rising heart


    beat that would kill any normal human being. That¡¯s when she has an attack and cks out¡± Selena


    said with her dry, husky voice


    ¡°So she won¡¯t be able to shift consciously for the rest of her life?¡± Zaden asked and she pulled herself


    away from him

 CHAPTER 28

    CHAPTER 28


    A naughty grin bloomed on her lips as her tongue traced her upper teeth.


    ¡°You are asking me how to turn her into a Samrat, how to activate her powers¡­and I don¡¯t think a


    finger is worth that information, alpha Zaden¡± she rubbed her nose to his before climbing up the bank,


    walking a bit further andid t on the grass, legs bend and slightly apart for him to see. A sudden


    darkness took over him at her inviting view. He stormed out of the water and walked to her, kneeling


    down to eat her delicacy. His tonguepped her, swirling around her delicacy while her restrained


    scream and moan pushed him a little further into no self-control. He became the inner animal he is, a


    hungry wolf.


    She bit her lips hard till it bled and squeezed shut her eye, enduring the sensation that he is giving her.


    He is making her happy despite the torture she is going through. An addictive pleasure. He stood


    kneeling, gazing at her face and his eyes were begging for her permission as his manhood is fully


    ready. She gave a gentle nod and with that, he grabbed his erection, guiding it to her delicacy. He


    pushed little by little, not trying to rush at all but the little push still made her yelp. She is a virgin,


    thankfully her human doesn¡¯t have to endure the pain of losing it. As a wolf, she can recover fast but as


    a human, she can¡¯t, since they are not co-existing at this moment. Finally, he entered his full length


    slowly into her, groaning in a pleasure mix pain


    ¡°Fuck, you are too tight¡­¡±Zaden said through his panting breath while Selena screamed. Drops of


    blood flowed out as he withdraw a little and thrust again and again


    ¡°Zaden¡­¡± she screamed in intention to stop him but she didn¡¯t actually say ¡®STOP¡¯ now, did she? An


    ooze of wetness turned the whole pain into pleasure, making her arch her back to endure the pleasure.


    She came undone like a waterfall and he did a few secondster. He withdrawpletely andid next


    to her, both panting for breath


    ¡°Was that worth it?¡± he asked


    ¡°Definitely¡­ Give me a minute, will you?¡± she kept panting for a few more minutes before she cuddled


    up to his chest and resumed


    ¡°Let me out¡­bring me here and let me out every day for the next 15days so that no energy gets bottled


    up. On eclipse, when there is no moon, you make her shift¡± she heard a lowugh from above her head


    ¡°You are brilliant, naughty girl¡± he raised her head up by holding her chin and gave her a kiss


    ¡°And only you should bring me here. I don¡¯t want anyone else with us¡­¡± he nodded and gave her


    another kiss


    ¡°Now¡­can I shift? I promise not to run around, just within this bank.¡± He nodded and they both shifted


    to their wolf. When nature made match, ck and silver, it is magical. The ck wolf paced slowly


    behind the silver, securing the surrounding to protect her while the silver yed around carelessly,


    turning back once in a while to lick his muzzle or forehead. They had another session of intimacy in


    their wolf form before finally turning back to semi-humans at the break of dawn, all dressed up.

    ¡°I will miss you. It¡¯s going to be hard, keeping my hands off you¡­¡± he giggled, holding her hand to his


    chest


    ¡°You have to¡­ if you don¡¯t, the little Bambi is going to find out¡± Selena


    ¡°Ooo I am scared¡­¡± he mocked


    ¡°You should be¡­the Selena you are seeing is not what she was 5 years ago. She doesn¡¯t understand


    fear, smart and cunning. That¡¯s why her brother calls her little fox. Until the night her mother had an


    ident. It broke her down, leaving behind a scar. And when she saw w marks on the back tire of


    the car, she developed phobic to wild animals¡± Zaden eye widened.


    ¡°w marks?¡±


    ¡°Yes, on the back tire and car rear body¡± Selena answered casually and yawn, before she plopped on


    the ground. Within minutes she fall asleep. With spiking confusion, heid next to her, pulling her into


    his embrace. She snuggled to his neck before he too fell deep into sleep.


    The birds were chirping and with a gentle touch, the sun was warming them up. Selena blinked to


    awake, on Zaden¡¯s chest. Her eyes are swollen due to little sleep she had. She shook Zaden by his


    tummy


    ¡°Zaden, wake up¡­¡± he stirred to wake, so Selena sat up stretching her hand up when Zaden¡¯s strong


    arms encircled her wrist, pulling her down. She yelped as he snuggled his nose into the crook of her


    neck


    ¡°5 minutes please¡­¡± Selena remained silent for the next almost 5 minutes and woke him up again.


    Instead of waking up, he thrust his hand into the ck shirt she was wearing, his ck shirt. Selena


    gasped as sparks spread through her.


    ¡°Zaden¡­¡± a tremble in her voice as she tried to wake him up again. He slide his palm to her back and


    pulled her closer to him, she is on her side with Zaden¡¯s face in the middle of her chest, her shoulders


    shrunk trying to endure the ticklish sensation he his giving her. He had stopped moving, probably


    snoozed back to sleep


    ¡°Zaden¡­¡± She shook him abit harder. He blinked open his eye to see her scared grey eye


    ¡°Morning baby girl¡­¡±he said with a smothering smile and husky voice. Wait, grey eye??? He snapped


    his eye open and let go of her. Her shirt rode up to reveal her panties and she covered it back. Zaden


    ran his hands across his neck before clearing his throat


    ¡°Get changed, we have to leave¡± she nodded and walked behind a tree. She made sure no one is


    surrounding her before taking off her dress. She realize she wasn¡¯t wearing any bra, she blinked a few


    times thinking when did she took off her bra. She looked around with her chest covered in her arm.


    Before she could step out of the tree, to peep for her bra, her bra showed up in front of her, hanging


    from the fingers of Zaden. Selena took it off with a blush and a gentle smile an, wore it, aware that


    Zaden is standing right behind her with the tree in between them. She didn¡¯t know why, but she felt


    comfortable in being naked with him at this much close approximate when an owl far on a tree


    bothered her so much.


    They walked back home after done dressing. Zaden had his hands thrusted into his pocket, shoulders


    slightly shrugged and a blush of pink crept from his neck till his cheek. He avoided looking at Selena at


    first


    ¡°Are you ok?¡± she asked with concerned and he nodded, realizing how silly he had been, acting like a


    school boy after he took her virginity. She felt sore between her legs, but then again, her whole body is


    sore


    ¡°What happened yesterday?¡± she asked him


    ¡°Hmm¡­your wolf showed up but I bribed her to be a good girl¡±. Zaden said casually


    ¡°She can be bribed? How?¡± Selena asked in confusion


    ¡°I told you, you and your wolf are two extreme end of poles¡­¡± after a pause, Zaden asked


    ¡°She told me that your mother¡¯s ident might have been caused by a wild animal?¡± Selena¡¯s face


    changed drastically, she walked fast past him, avoiding eye contact


    ¡°Selena wait¡­¡±


    ¡°Zaden I¡¯m tired. Can we not talk about this please¡± her face was on the opposite side, observing


    mountains and the sun rising from under the mountains. Zaden understood he had hit her weak spot


    but she said she is tired and that might be extremely true. They had sex 3 times yesterday night itself


    and a few more other activities. Like it or not, it¡¯s her body they were using. He bent down, lift her up in


    his arms and started walking as if she weighs nothing. She was unusually quiet, no question, no doubts


    and no sarcasm. They almost reached home when Selena stirred in his arms


    ¡°Zaden, aren¡¯t you tired? Put me down¡± her eye were focused forward and she can see Grandpa Kai.


    ¡°You cunning little fox!!! You used me to carry you 15 kilometers to home and suddenly, you are


    concerned for me? It¡¯s because of Grandpa Kai, isn¡¯t it?¡± he said with a raised eyebrow.


    ¡°You missed your resistance training and I didn¡¯t want to weaken you. Now, put me down this instant.¡±


    She red at him. Feeling irritated, he let go of her, dropping her by butt on to the ground and she yelp


    in pain, rubbing her butt.


    ¡°Make sure you take a thorough bath or else there will be dozens of questions to be answered¡± he


    straightened his shirt and walked away. She carries strong Alpha Zaden¡¯s smell, if someone else


    noticed, they will be in trouble.


    ¡°Zaden, you Rocky monkey!!!¡± she shouted from his back and he waved his hand bye. Grandpa Kai


    stopped him


    ¡°What hap¡­¡± he stopped his own question. Zaden smells different, strongly mingled with a floral scent


    that he can''t put his finger on.


    ¡°Oh my¡­I see what happen¡­¡± Zaden avoided Grandpa Kai¡¯s face, trying his best to hide his blush.


    ¡°Meet me atmunal room in 20 minutes. I know how to make her shift¡± he walked swiftly past him.


    He made sure he didn¡¯t bump into anyone and went to his room, took a hot shower. He doesn¡¯t


    remember when, but Selena managed to leave a bite mark on his chest. Its fading but will take till


    afternoon to disappearpletely. Selena was lucky that no one crossed her path, she also went to


    her bathroom. When she opened her dress, she saw bruises and scratch marks on her body. She


    assumed it is from sleeping on ground and took a long, hot scorching shower. She also received her


    first alpha¡¯s order through mind-link and went to themunal room. She is still feeling sore and


    extremely tired


    ¡°I know how to make her shift. I talked to her wolf¡± everyone was focused on Zaden, especially Orion


    who is supposed to be in charge of her shifting.


    ¡°Her wolf¡¯s energy gets bottled up in her body for 30 days and amplified 5 times when it hits the


    moonlight. Her body is too tiny to handle it, so she has panic attack. So, if we let her wolf toe out


    every day, there won¡¯t be any energy build up. Then, I teach or show her how to shift on lunar eclipse.


    No moon light, no energy gets amplified. If we get them to co-exist, connect with each other, we might


    hit the target and she could continue shifting on her wish¡± Zaden finished and ced his butt on a


    table.


    ¡°You are going to teach her? I thought that¡¯s supposed to be under my care¡± Orion eximed


    ¡°That was her wolf¡¯s demand or else she is not going to show up¡± Zaden said and Orion slummed to


    couch in frustration.


    ¡°So, I need you guys to stay away from Lake Khalifa for the next 15days. Got it?¡± they all nodded and


    the meeting dispersed.


    Selena¡¯s wolf said that her mother¡¯s car had w marks on them, it has been disturbing him a lot. He


    took a piece of paper and jotted down all the facts they know about her in a map form, starting from the


    Grandma Coral and till today

 CHAPTER 29

    CHAPTER 29


    ¡°Did you do the homework?¡± Orion took in charge of Selena¡¯s stamina building. They were at the


    waterfall. Orion didn¡¯t make her run as far as Zaden did. Instead, he focused on building the core


    muscle. He is wearing punch mitts, while Selena was punching him with bare hand. She didn¡¯t leave


    much of an impact but she learns to read how to anticipate a punch or attack.


    ¡°Ha huh¡­¡± Selena nodded in between her heavy breathing. Zaden can see she was getting to use to


    punch mitt, toofortable with the training. So, inn the middle of punching, Orion crouched down and


    slide one leg below Selena, in attempt to knock her down. Selena eye widened at his sudden move and


    took a very high jump avoiding his leg.


    ¡°Impressive¡­¡± he stood straight with a frown. She shrugged.


    ¡°Can you try climbing the rope?¡± he pointed at the rope hanging from waterfall. Selena looked at the


    rope, inspecting from top to bottom, a little longer then she should. Orion punched gently from behind,


    jerking her forward considerably.


    ¡°Don¡¯t just stand there, give it a try!!!¡± He pointed out. Selena red at him in annoyance and walked to


    the rope. She grabbed the rope. She could hardly pull herself up, even the first few feet. Orion held her


    waist and lifted her up, so that she can get ahead start and she doesn¡¯t seem to mind, focusing on the


    rope.


    ¡°SELENA!!!¡± a scream came from behind them. Orion and Selena turned to look at the source. It was


    Zaden.


    ¡°Let go of the rope¡± he shouted one more time, walking as fast as he can towards them


    ¡°She was just trying to¡­¡± Orion tried to exin when he got cut off


    ¡°Are you crazy, Orion? She is detached from her wolf, which means she is just a regr human now. If


    she falls from that high, she will never recover.¡± He is zing in anger.


    ¡°Zaden, I am right here. I can catch her if she falls and it¡¯s not like she is going to die from a few feet of


    fall¡± Orion tried again but Zaden doesn¡¯t seem to register anything. Mating with Selena¡¯s wolf increased


    his possessiveness and protecting nature towards her, exponentially. Zaden¡¯s nose red as he


    grabbed Orion¡¯s shirt into a fist and brought him close to him.


    ¡°It¡¯s not like she is going to DIE?¡± he said through his gritted teeth


    ¡°Zaden, let him go. I¡¯m fine¡± Selena grabbed Zaden¡¯s arm, trying to pull it away. He had seen Orion


    near death in Zaden¡¯s palm and not willing to face that again.


    ¡°Let go Zaden, you are making an unnecessary deal out of this¡± Orion clenched his jaw. Wolfs are not


    made to stand up to their alpha but Orion pushed himself.


    ¡°If you are going to be so careless with her training sessions, I suggest you step out and let me take


    care of it¡± his words dripping venom as they came through gritted teeth


    ¡°Oh you would love that, won¡¯t you?¡± Orion clenched his jaws. Make and others are already there,


    she had seen male werewolves fight before and its ugly. She pulled Selena away from there with as


    much force as possible. Selena protested with all her might but Make is stronger when she uses her


    wolf strength.


    ¡°What do you mean?¡± Zaden


    ¡°You want her, don¡¯t you?¡± Zaden¡¯s grip on his shirt loosened


    ¡°DON¡¯T you use your alpha tone and face me like a real man. You want her all to yourself don¡¯t you? I


    saw you kissing her Zaden, when we left her in the city.¡± Zaden dropped his head


    ¡°You were cold with her right until you found out that she is a Samrat, then all of a sudden, you kissed


    her. Why?¡± Zaden kept ring Orion with his head slightly tilted down. Clearly, Orion doesn¡¯t know the


    whole story.


    ¡°Let me tell you why. You want to lure her into bing your mate, mark her and be the next


    King, am I correct?¡± All the by standers eyes widened except for Zaden who is trying his best to control


    his anger.


    ¡°And you are using sex as your weapon because you know she is a virgin, am I correct? You are trying


    to make her addicted to the pleasure of sex. That¡¯s why you came up with this 15days to eclipse story.


    Nobody was there to rify your statement and her wolf is also not going to show up to deny it either,


    your free from any suspicious eye, am I correct?¡± Orion is standing very close to Zaden now. All the


    others exchanged look at each other


    ¡°You took the time we have together by putting multiple training on her and you try to remove me from


    those who train her, isn¡¯t it? What the fucking hell are you doing in her room, every night?¡± he shouted


    thest sentence and the whole pack remained stiffened after that.


    ¡°And you know she likes me, so you have been trying to keep us apart from day one, don¡¯t you? Its ok


    for you to kiss her but not me? Its ok for you to care for her but not me? Its ok for you to hug her but not


    me? Let her decide that, you don¡¯t do that for her, Zaden¡± he slide to the side and took a few steps to


    walk away before he stopped, his face right next to Zaden¡¯s. Sun beam splitting between them.


    ¡°You love her for her body, I love her for her heart. I can give her the addictive sex but you cannot give


    her the heart your heart¡± thosest words stab deep into Zaden¡¯s heart. Orion walked away from there


    despite being stopped by his friends. All of them remained frozen for a minute, the pack leaders doesn¡¯t


    know which way to go, Alpha or Beta. Zaden sensed their confusion, he can tell them what to do,


    where to go, what is best for them but not whose side to choose. He froze in his spot. A palm reached


    his shoulder, it was Xavier, one who is the closest to Orion.


    ¡°He is confused Alpha. Give him some time, he wille around¡± he said and all the others nodded


    with a smile.


    This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    ¡°Do you all think the same way he does? That I do all this because I want to be the king of Samrat? Be


    bold with me, otherwise we will be having a dysfunctioning pack.¡± He is still ring forward which is just


    waterfall now.


    ¡°I think you are doing what is best for a pack member¡± Sitka voiced out. With that, Zaden turned around


    and walked away, chin up and his pack followed behind him.


    They exit the clearing and entered the woods. From far, he can see Selena hiding behind Make and


    arguing with Orion. Orion tried to grab Selena pass Make, but Make kept pushing her to side,


    protecting her. Selena had tears flowing over her cheeks, face filled with worry. She was saying


    something, stepping in front of Make but nothing can make sense to Orion right at this moment.


    Orion grabbed her wrist, pulling her behind him to the left, just in time for Zaden to reach them.


    Make sensed his the alpha¡¯s presence and calmed down. He came striding with his long legs,


    grabbed her other wrist and pulled Selena to him. Selena came crashing into his embrace and Zaden


    red at Orion before he whispered a word, sending shiver down everyone standing there


    ¡°Mine¡­¡±


    He turned and walked to the right, towards the brick house. Selena had to jog to meet with his long


    strides. A shiver climbed up her spine at Zaden¡¯s word. His grip on her wrist, firm and steady. The pack


    followed them behind except for Orion.

 CHAPTER 30

    CHAPTER 30


    ¡°He imed you as his!!! Do you even know what that means?¡± Make was circling Selena, who is


    now sitting solemn in a single couch, in her room


    ¡°Yes I do, Make. It means I¡¯m just a mere property that they can dere who owns me and who


    doesn¡¯t. For your information, I am not a property!!!¡± Make jerked her head back in surprise at her


    point of view. Selena sighed


    ¡°Make, I am really tired. I feel like my head is about to split open. I need to rest for a while, if I am


    going to Lake Khalifa today¡± Make nodded and walked out of the room.


    Selena thought a lot. The image of Zaden iming her as his, only made her even more agitated. She


    doesn¡¯t want to go to theke, or shift into a form where she is not in control off. Soon she fell asleep.


    Hourster, a knock on the door woke her up. She opened the door and Zaden was there, clearly


    pissed off.


    ¡°You were supposed toe down at 11pm, baby girl. Its 11.45pm. I have been waiting for you¡± he


    kept his re intense the whole time he talked. A clear blue line ran up his neck, his neck looked


    strained apanied by a cold face.


    ¡°I¡¯m noting¡± Selena said with almost the same intensity and pushed the door to close. A thud


    stopped the door, Zaden had his palm on the door, stopping it in its way. He then pushed it open,


    pacing step by step into the room. His anger radiated through his whole body till Selena felt intimidated,


    she took a step back every time he took a step forward.


    ¡°Why?¡± his question came out with a low growl


    ¡°I don¡¯t want to¡± Selena said, subconsciouslying out low.


    ¡°You don¡¯t want what? You don¡¯t want to shift to a wolf? You don¡¯t want to be a werewolf? You don¡¯t


    want to go with me? You don¡¯t want to be anywhere near me? You don¡¯t want what?¡± Selena thud


    against the wall, she had reached the end of her room.


    ¡°Or you don¡¯t want to defend yourself when one day, Ozrain Samrates to stand in front of me and


    snatch you away, because belief me when I say, he will. Are you telling me that you are killing the


    Ozrain Samrat within you and letting Elisa Mitkoi, to live? A weak, fragile human, who was unable to


    defend herself, her daughter and the unborn child in her womb¡­¡±


    ¡°SHUT UP!!!¡± in a snap, her wolf took charge, standing in a semi wolf form, her eye ring with anger.


    Zaden let his wolf take control as well. Selena grabbed his neck


    ¡°How dare you talk in such a away about her?¡± the whole room turned chilly. Her wolf is extremely


    defensive over Elisa Mitkoi.


    ¡°Who do you refer to as weak? The person who is not equipped with the ability to fight back or the


    person who used her disability to kill her? Have you ever heard of the phrase ¡®pick someone your own


    size¡¯? One of you a pathetic werewolf decides to pick on her. Now tell me Alpha Zaden, whom will you


    pick to fight, Ozrain Samrat or Elisa Mitkoi?¡± she growled in anger, her grip didn¡¯t budge and caused a


    slight strain to Zaden. Her anger is so great that she is willing to hurt her mate. Her growl vibrated


    through the wall, waking up the whole floor. Zaden could have knock her off in a second but as she


    said, he is not going to fight the weak ones, even if it means he getting killed. Instead, he tilted his head


    down against her restraining grip. His golden eye glowed, looking straight into her eye. She flinched as


    if she just realized where her hand had been and let go of his neck as if she had been electrocuted.


    Her eyebrows frown, regretting what she had done. She paced back, Zaden softened as a gut


    clenching pain surged him at her retrieval.


    ¡°Baby¡­¡± he stretched his hand grabbing her waist


    ¡°Baby¡­ look at me¡­¡± he said softly, in a whisper.


    ¡°No...no¡­¡± she grabbed her head and slides down to the floor, slipping off Zaden¡¯s hands. She is


    hearing a wailing cry for help, just like she did with the python but she is in no position to help. She is in


    her own conflict. She curled up on the floor, grabbing her hair into a fist, letting out a painful scream.


    Zaden kneeled next to her, worried as hell for her. He pulled her up and hugged her, while rubbing her


    back to calm her down. His touch helped a lot to clear her mind. These animals had done nothing


    wrong. Now, they need her, she must go. She shifted in a second, in Zaden¡¯s arms, forming a wolf that


    is bigger than Zaden itself. Zaden pulled himself back, looking at her in amusement.


    ¡®Pack of Mountain Manuka, get into your houses, NOW!!!¡±


    Zaden mind-linked his whole vige, alerting all the leader¡¯s pack, including Orion as they rushed


    downstairs. They stopped abruptly when they saw a magnificent silver wolf squeezing through Selena¡¯s


    room door, followed by Zaden.


    ¡°She shifted inside?¡± Orion asked in confusion


    ¡°Who is that?¡± Make asked


    ¡°Who do you think?¡± Orion


    ¡°Selena?¡± they all chorused and Orion nodded


    Selena paced step by step forward, her shoulder de moved in sync with her steps and a snarl in her


    lips. Her eye are pitch ck as usual but her eyeball are all red. She didn¡¯t actually give out any order


    but she exerted a dominant aura that made everyone in her path bow in respect, not submissive. An


    angry Samrat¡¯s wolf with Alpha Zaden backing her up, deadlybination. She stepped down the


    stairs, reaching the ground floor and stepped out of the house. The silver wolf rolled her neck and


    concentrated, trying to narrow down the location of the wailing cry. Then she snapped her head east


    and started running. All the leader¡¯s pack shifted and ran behind her.


    ¡®Territory pack, disperse, NOW!!!¡±


    Another mind-link sent out. She ran along the mountain foot already crossed 5 mountains and heading


    to the sixth, which is the boundary between 2 viges


    ¡®Young Vige residence and territory pack, disperse, NOW!!!¡±


    This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.


    On the 7th mountain, Selena started to run up the mountain. Maneuvering through the trees as if she is


    familiar with this forest, moving a tad faster than the rest. Approaching the tip of the mountain, she


    started sniffing around and let a snarl. Zaden smelled it also, rogues. Selena jumped off ground, thud


    her paws against arge tree, twisted her body towards another tree and thud her paws again, moving


    in a swift zig zag, till she reached the top of the tree and shut down, as if she is hiding. The other wolfs


    are not good at climbing trees, not this fast anyway.


    ¡®Shift¡¯


    Zaden ordered so that it will be easier for them to hide too. The whole pack is naked now, and they


    hide behindrge trees. The surrounding vicinity became silent. Only cricket chirping can be heard. All


    of a sudden, a low grunt of what sounded like gori came from nowhere. The pack looked around but


    they can see nothing.


    ¡®Nobody move¡¯.


    A deep husky voice invaded their mind-link, it was Selena. They stayed in the position for an hour or


    so, before twigs started snapping and out came 2 rogues from behind the bushes with a human,


    poachers. They came standing right below Selena and looked at ground, crouched down. They


    seemed to be happy


    ¡°Well well well¡­look who is here, an uninvited guest¡± one of the rogues said as he tilted his head up,


    looking straight at Selena. The human followed his head and pointed his gun as soon as he saw


    Selena. The pack leaders agitated but another stern order from Selena put them back in their ce.


    The hunter fired a shot. From far, they can see that it was silver bullet, made to kill werewolf. Selena


    remained calm standing on all four legs above the tree. Just when the bullet was about to hit her, she


    jumped to the next tree and zigzagged down to the ground, stretching her paws hitting the hunter


    directly on his face. He dropped his gun but the rogue, with a cocky look, took another gun and pointed


    at Selena. She remained calm. The rogue waited for her to make a move but she didn¡¯t budge. Finally,


    he lost his patients. The pack heard a shot but Selena still didn¡¯t move. Tension was rising as all of


    them started breathing heavy. Maybe she got shot. Another shot was heard. A few secondster, they


    heard hermend


    ¡®Shift¡­¡¯


    They shifted into wolf form and jumped out only to see Selena dragging one of the rogue by his ankle,


    his head hitting every tree and rocks on the way. Selena¡¯s eye filled with rage and snarl on the mouth


    biting the ankle. She headed straight to Orion and dropped the rogue in front of him. She nodded to


    Orion and turned back to get another rogue. Orion looked close at the rogue, his hand was holding the


    gun and his chest was bleeding, which means he shot himself. Selena dropped another rogue at


    Orion¡¯s feet and went back for the hunter, dropped him to Orion¡¯s feet as well. She then went back to


    the spot where she climbed up tree previously and jumped downwards to the ground. All the other


    wolfs except for Orion came running to her. There is a huge pit dug down there, a trap enough to fit an


    elephant but today, a mountain gori fell into it, with her baby. She was wailing to save her baby.


    Selena stood chinned up in front of the gori and the gori bowed to her. She then grabbed the baby


    gori and jumped out of the pit, ced the baby down and jumped back in for the mommy. The


    mommy was a bit heavy for her that she couldn¡¯t jump out. Zaden jumped in. Heid down for Selena


    to climb up him with the gori. She did and the others helped from above to pull out the mommy.


    Zaden looked at Selena and she bowed thankful to Zaden. He snuggled his head against her neck,


    inhaling her wonderful smell, cooing soothingly. They then jumped out of the pit. Selena didn¡¯t pay any


    attention to Orion thereafter, hence the rest of the pack followed her, walking pass Orion.


    Images of his mate bleeding from silver bullet in her heart, shes again and again in front of Orion¡¯s


    eye. His blood started boiling, his eyes turned red. Zaden and the pack heard a painful scream from


    behind them. They paused for a second but then resumed their walk, heading to the brick house.


    Orion had ripped each and every joint of the 2 rogues and a human hunter. He is now covered with


    blood, looking like a Satan rose from hell, yet a sense of peace surged within him. He could feel the


    wind blowing against him better, he could smell the air around him better and he could run a tad faster,


    as he felt lighter then ever. They might not be the same person who killed his mate, he never saw


    them. At this moment, he is grateful that he never saw the poacher who killed his mate or else, his rage


    would have been focused only on that one but now, every rogue and poachers feeds his anger.


    The walk home was awkward for the leader¡¯s pack since they couldn¡¯t take their eye off Selena. Orion


    came thudding behind them, covered in blood and they all scrunched away from him. Selena looked


    behind at Orion, she then switched course and headed to a river nearby and jumped in. All 5 joined in


    and the night went by just like that. They reached home and climbed upstairs in their room before


    shifting to human again. They all slept at 4am in the morning and woke upte the next day, missing


    their morning resistance training.

 CHAPTER 31

    CHAPTER 31


    Selena stirred softly on her bed before sitting up to stretch her arms. That''s when she noticed that she


    ispletely naked. Its not something new for her to wake up naked without recalling how she became


    naked but this time there was a man, naked too in her bed.


    ¡°Ahh!!!!¡± she shouted before pulling her duvet up to her chest and recoiled herself to the wall that is


    against the bed,nding with a light thud. Zaden stirred, he lookedpletely exhausted. Hairy chest


    exposed, messed up hair and his voice even more deep and husky then his usual morning voice. He


    could barely open his eyes.


    ¡°Hmm...What?¡± he asked in his barely awake state


    ¡°Zaden, you are naked in my bed!!!¡± she whispered with evident tension. He opened one eye to see the


    frightened eyes and messy hair, strands hiding part of her left eye but still, the super cute Selena


    ¡°So?¡± he asked before grabbing her wrist and pulling her towards him. She fell on top of him, one hand


    still holding her duvet up. He shuffled her like a pro toy next to him and then pulled her closer to him


    by her waist and dipped his face into her neck. Front to front, nothing but a duvet between them.


    Selena shrunk her shoulder due to tickling in her neck.


    ¡°Zaden, did we...Did we?¡± she asked with worries. That''s when Zaden realized that it is Selena, not her


    wolf and he is in a tough position to deny their intimacy, a few hours ago, in the early morning. He


    threw himself back as if she electrocuted him, hoisted with the support of one elbow. Then he threw his


    head back in frustration


    ¡°Arghhh... why am I always stuck in this situation???¡± he eximed, making Selena flicker her eye in


    confusion. He turned to see her innocent face agitated. For a second, he really wanted pull her to him,


    not caring about anything and have her one more time, perfect morning breakfast in bed. Yet, he forced


    control over himself and that nasty hands of his.


    ¡°No sweety, we didn''t. We came back after a shift and fell asleep naked, that''s all, all right?¡± not


    completely a lie, he just hide the part where they made out intensely aftering back and then she


    wrapped her legs around Zaden''s waist where he thrust her like a mad man, making her scream but


    then they are in the brick house, screaming is not allowed. So he shut her mouth with his palms and


    continued fucking her, bouncing her in his arms before they both came undone, and then fell asleep


    naked. Just a harmless, tiny, unnecessary detail.


    ¡°Get out¡± she pushed him off bed


    ¡°Oh my god woman, I''m naked too. Can you rx for a second please...¡± now he look irritated but


    Selena didn''t care. She just wanted him off. So he just stood out of the duvet, naked, making Selena


    flinch and shut her eye before he walked to her closet, pulled out a sweatpants that he kept long time


    ago and walked out of the room, not forgetting to give her a kiss in the air before he walked pass the


    door. She mumbled curses under her breath, before getting up for a shower.


    At themunal room, Selena was sitting in the velvety green extrarge single sofa. It has been her


    favorite chair since it makes her feel cozy. Orion had just gave her a tub of chocte ice-cream and sat


    her there. She was enjoying it.


    ¡°What are they doing there?¡± Make was venting referring to the poacher and rogue from yesterday


    ¡°Poaching¡± Selena said casually, digging her spoon into the ice-cream tub, not even looking up but all 5


    pack leaders throw a re at her.


    ¡°Ya, but how did theye in?¡± Xavier


    ¡°That''s easy¡± Selena said in the same manner again, she didn''t realize she was actually answering


    them aloud. It was supposed to be in her mind. Suddenly she felt out of air and looked up. All 5 pack


    leaders had surrounded her, arms across their chest, ring at her. Zaden snatched the ice-cream tub


    from her.


    ¡°What?¡± Selena irritated


    ¡°Care to exin how it''s easy to enter Mountain Manuka?¡± Zaden asked coldly. Selena stood up, both


    her hands opened in the air ,with spoon in one hand.


    ¡°I told you, the day I came back itself, your territory defense is lousy. Remember?¡± she snatched back


    the tub of ice-cream from Zaden and plopped back to her sofa


    ¡°Can someone please make this woman talk?¡± Zaden pinched the bridge of his nose, frustrated of not


    being able to handle this little thing in front of him when he had finished off 30 rogue single handedly at


    a time.


    ¡°Selena, how did youe that day?¡± Xavier crouched in front of Selena


    ¡°From east side, climbed down till I see a river and went with the flow.¡± Selena answered casually


    ¡°Are you sure? Maybe you are confused with¡­¡± Selena cut off Sitka


    ¡°Sitka, I am used to hiking mountains, I know exactly where I came from. I started at the same point


    that I came the first time, but I got diverted. I didn''te across the mother waterfall and I knew I was


    lost. So I kept climbing and all I see is a camping zone and thickest forest¡±


    ¡°What camping zone?¡± Zaden


    ¡°You know, the one behind east mountain, the mountain that looks like pregnant woman belly.¡± Again


    Selena with the same casual manner, making Zaden chuckle


    ¡°I¡¯m surprised anyone notice that our mountains look like pregnant womanid on her back. Her belly is


    the seventh mountain. Was there any humans camping there?¡± Zaden asked


    ¡°No, just the remnants of camping, bonfire residues, kettles and stuff, so I assumed it''s a camping


    zone.¡± After that all 5 circled up, leaving behind Selena and discussing further


    ¡°Does that mean theye often?¡± Maka


    ¡°How did our patrol team miss it?¡± Sitka


    ¡°How did they dig up a pit hole that big without anyone noticing?¡± Orion


    ¡°Maybe there is a ck sheep within our pack. Zaden, did you notice anything weird among pack


    members?¡± Xavier


    ¡°Did you morons cover up the hole?¡± A sweet, soft voice came from behind them, still digging into the


    tub. They exchanged look with wide eyes


    ¡°Shit¡± they rushed out of the room while Selena devoted herself to the ice-cream. Zaden ran back into


    the room, snatched the ice-cream and ced it on the table, grabbed her wrist and pulled her behind


    him.


    They had to shift into wolfs so that they can get there fast and Selena sat on Zaden, having her eyes


    squeezed shut to avoid any eye contact with other wolfs. They look much bigger and vicious in day


    light. Within 30 minutes of run, they arrive again at the seventh mountain and shift back, put on the


    cloths that Selena was carrying in her bag pack. A tap on her shoulder notified Selena that they have


    shifted and all dressed up. She stood up from behind the tree and walked to the trap pit.


    ¡°A pit this big must have done with machineries¡± Orion said


    ¡°But how can a machinery enter without being noticed?¡± Xavier


    ¡°More importantly, when?¡± Selena


    ¡°What do you mean by that?¡± Orion asked her in confusion


    ¡°Look around, its thick forest. If they havee with machineries recently, these trees wouldn''t have


    grown that fast to cover up the tracks.¡± Selena was walking around the pit, inspecting attentively, when


    she noticed dried leaves at the bottom of the pit, pointing at one direction.


    ¡°If they want to do this unnoticed, leaving no track, they must have done it by hand...¡± Make was cut


    off


    ¡°Or they must have done it from underground¡± Selena was already crouching at the opposite site of the


    pit. All 5 rushed to her and crouched down.


    ¡°Look at the dried leaves¡± She pointed at the bottom of pit


    ¡°They are pointing at one direction. Rain water must have collected here and when they drain out


    rapidly, the leaves turn to water flow direction and settle down in this manner. So, if my guess is


    correct, there must be some sort of drainage hole right there¡± she pointed with one eye closed. Zaden


    grabbed her face by side and pulled her towards him,ying a very hard long kiss on her cheeks,


    making her pout like a gold fish


    ¡°Ummwa... you are brilliant¡± they all sat down at the pit, ready to jump in.


    ¡°Thanks, although a chocte ice-cream is much appreciated¡± she mumbled to herself. They all


    jumped in except for Selena who is looking at them weirdly


    ¡°Come on, jump¡± Orion already extending his arm towards her


    ¡°You want me to jump too?¡± they nodded


    ¡°Then who is going to pull you all out of this pit?¡± they mentally pped themselves for rushing into


    action.


    ¡°And I suppose you would be able to pull us out in one swift move?¡± Zaden mocked her tiny figure.


    Selena sat on the pit edge, one leg folded, one leg dangling down and one of her hand resting her chin


    ¡°Fine, Alpha. Let''s see how you guys get out of there without my help¡± they huffed in annoyance and


    went to the direction she pointed earlier. They had to clear out a lot of dried leave before being able to


    see a 3 feet tall metal sewer cover. They tried to open it, kick it and pull it but it was too tight even for


    their werewolf strength.


    ¡°We have to find the other end of this¡± Zaden said, clutching his waist and panting. They all agreed and


    turned around and looked up at Selena, who is now wiggling her eyebrows at them.


    ¡°You jumped out of here yesterday, didn''t you Zaden?¡± Xavier asked, not yet ready to give up to


    Selena.


    ¡°She helped me out yesterday or else I wouldn''t havee out¡± Zaden.


    After looking around for a while, they finally gave up


    ¡°Ok, fine. You win. Now help us out¡± Orion said through his gritted teeth.


    She sighed out ¡°Now why would I do that? What would I get in exchange?¡± she said cocky. Zaden


    recalled how her wolf did the same days ago.


    ¡°She is not that different from her wolf¡± he mumbled


    This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    ¡°Fine, what you want?¡± Zaden shouted from bottom


    Selena straightened her back ¡°Hmm...Kneel down¡± they were a bit surprised


    ¡°Selena, be precise, there is an alpha here¡± Make said, warning her to be submissive, but Selena


    would be Selena


    ¡°Ok...Alpha Zaden, Beta Orion, Beta Make, Delta Xavier and Delta Sitka, kneel down, please¡± they


    all looked at Zaden. Zaden rolled his neck in annoyance before kneeling down, followed by his leader''s


    pack.


    ¡°Now, repeat after me. You are our queen, Selena...we worship and love you...¡± she said


    The pack sighed out before repeating her words in chorus


    ¡°Good puppy. Now, Zaden will be in charge of buying ice-cream and choctes for me, Make will be


    bringing me to shopping. Orion, Xavier and Sitka will be my bodyguards so that I don''t have to learn


    defense¡± Selena said


    ¡°What? No way¡± they rebelled


    ¡°Your call...¡± Selena said arrogantly, not even considering what will happen if they find a way up. After


    some protest, they finally agreed


    ¡°Oh ya, no more resistance training¡± her eyes narrowed to Zaden


    ¡°Don''t push it, baby girl¡± Zaden said through his gritted teeth. Selena exhaled in annoyance


    ¡°Fine, now an IQ question. This pit is at least 15 or even 20 feet deep, 15 feet wide pit. If it is true


    someone is using this to get into Mount Manuka, how would theye up from this pit on regr


    basis?¡± they looked at each other in confusion


    ¡°She got a point¡± Orion whispered. After a few look around, they looked back at Selena and she cocked


    her eyebrow before kicking the pit wall with her dangling leg. A metal sound echoed down the pit. They


    rushed to the wall and pulled out all the vines that has been growing around to reveal adder


    ¡°Not everyone want to climb the waterfall when there is a staircase¡­¡± She said, mocking Xavier.


    Make climbed up first, reaching the top within minutes and Selena helped pull her up.


    ¡°What was down there?¡± Selena


    ¡°A metal sewer cover. We pushed it, kicked it, pulled it but nothing worked¡± Make said panting


    ¡°Did you try twisting it?¡± Selena as usual, asked casually, alerting all those that are still at the bottom of


    pit and Sitka who is half way up thedder.


    ¡°What?¡± Zaden asked


    ¡°You know, like a bottle cap, twist around¡± Selena drew an O with her fingers. They look at each other


    and Sitka jumped off thedder, rushing back to the cover. They grabbed the cover and pushed it to


    twist and it worked. The cap opened wide revealing a dark passage way. Zaden scratch his temple in


    annoyance


    ¡°Make, would you do me a favor? Push her down, please¡± Zaden said looking up


    ¡°What, Make no...¡± before Selena could finish talking, Make pushed her into the pit. She gasped


    for air as she fell down, covering her head with her arms but Zaden and Orion had already joined their


    hands as a bridge and shended perfectly between them


    ¡°We might be low in IQ but ¡°Zaden


    ¡°Strong enough to protect you¡± Orion.

 CHAPTER 32

    CHAPTER 32


    Selena is standing in front of the dark passage.


    ¡°You are not sending me in first, are you?¡± Selena smiled sheepishly and when they nodded, her smile


    died off. With the act she put up there, she has no choice but to obey now, does she?


    She slowly turned around and looked carefully at the passage. A hand pushed her from behind, making


    her take a step into the passage. It smelled bad and wet in there. Selena noticed that the floor is solid


    thou, as if its made out of cement or wood. Not even a few meter, she stretched her hand to her back


    and pulled the first thing she could grab. Orion came thudding her back,ying his chin on her shoulder.


    His breathing was shaky as they all focused to the front. Step by step, she went forward. She started


    sweating from anxiety. It was pitch ck and she couldn¡¯t see anything. A sudden metal nking was


    what need to make her turn around to run away and bump into something hard. It was Xavier and he


    turned her around to walk further. A few more meters and the temperature of air around them started


    dropping, a breeze of air can be felt. Selena¡¯s vision getting clearer and clearer as a little light came


    through. In her vision, a man was standing ahead of her, a few meters at least. She could only see him


    shadowy.


    ¡°Oh my god, there is someone here¡± she whispered and Make came to her other shoulder


    ¡°Really, where?¡± She whispered in return and Selena pointed ahead, slightly to her left. A sudden


    knock fell on her head


    ¡°Ouch!!!¡± Selena


    ¡°That¡¯s Zaden, you freak¡± Make steeping in anger. He must have slipped pass her, to her front as


    any alpha would, protecting their pack. She felt a great relief, she paced faster. They finally walked out


    of the passage into a cave, a very tall and vast cave. Their presence spooked some bad and started


    flying around with screeching sound. Selena grabbed Zaden shirt on the sides of his waist and hid her


    face into his back. Orion raised his jacket to cover her face and his other hand was holding her arm


    across. She could see Zaden¡¯s hands stretched to his back, making sure she is hidden behind him and


    his other arm covered his face. Selena is in a safe embrace by the two men. The bats flew crazy pass


    them. Make was embraced by Xavier and Sitka as they had crouched to the ground. After


    everything has calmed down, Selena peeped from behind Zaden, inspecting her surroundings. She


    stepped out a bit more bravely, making Zaden roll his eye and sigh out. She was looking for an


    opening.


    ¡°It¡¯s over there, shorty¡± Zaden mocked her, making her snap her head at him with anger. She noticed a


    scrape on his cheek and tried to touch it, making Zaden hiss. She pursed her lips


    ¡°Serves you right for calling me shorty¡± she huffed and walked away. The opening was behind a huge


    rock, a few meters up a bunch of rocks, so, at 5.2 feet, Selena couldn¡¯t see it. She had to start climbing


    for her to see the opening. Zaden being at the front, climbed up first, and turned to give a hand to


    Selena. Orion, Xavier, Make and Sitka followed one by one. At the opening, a thick curtain of vine


    cascade, making it hard to see outside. Zaden slightly moved the vines with a finger and the other hand


    holding Selena¡¯s hand, tightly. He peeped out. It looked safe but still Zaden turned around, grabbed


    Orions hand with his free hand and ced Orion¡¯s hand over Selena shoulder as he looked over her to


    other and give out an instruction


    ¡°Wait here, I¡¯m going to check the surrounding first.¡± He then walked out without looking back at Selena


    and Orion held her shoulders tight. It took quite a long time that they started feeling anxious. Then


    Zaden came back and instructed everyone to follow him. They walked out and the first thing Selena


    saw was the camping zone she mentioned earlier. Zaden was way ahead of them and they rushed to


    follow him. There was a path that went far out of the forest. They walked the path, for about 30 minutes


    till it ended up to a roadway. From the roadway, they can see a town, the one that Orion took Selena


    and Jeffry before, to make phone call and buy dress. From brick house, it will take 6 hours by foot, 3


    hours as werewolf and 2 hours by jeep to get here. But via the passage that they had found, it will take


    only 45 minutes for a werewolf to get here. It is the fastest secret passage way. They walked to the


    phone booth and looked around for a while, what shops are there, any werewolves or rogues are there,


    anything suspicious and such. When none found, Zaden signaled to go back when Selena hold his


    arms with both her hands., she can only grab his armpletely bybining both her hands.


    ¡°Zaden¡­hmm¡­can I make a phone call, please?¡± her eye were literally begging him and she was


    saying million prayers in her heart. Zaden didn¡¯t realize how much she must have missed her family


    and friends. He sighed out and grabbed her hand before cing his wallet in her hands.


    The leader¡¯s pack stood a few meters away from the phone booth, with hot coffee in paper cup, talking


    about misceneous stuff. Selena called her dad, then Jewel, then Jeffry who was with Noah and


    Oliver. It took her over 30 minutes to wrap up and she came running out with a wide grin.


    N?velDrama.Org: owner of this content.


    ¡°Done?¡± Zaden asked, she nodded frantically


    ¡°Let¡¯s go¡± Zaden grabbed her wrist and they started walking towards the cave.


    Back at themunal room, Grandpa Kai was surrounded by leader¡¯s pack and Selena. They


    exined to him of what they found. Grandpa Kai sighed


    ¡°Back when we first came here, we stayed as one vige. The mountain was vast and only the first 5


    mountains were our territory. When the prophecy of a Samrat¡¯s heir came to surface, The King focused


    his search mainly in mountain region. There was a rumor about passage ways dug up by Samrat¡¯s


    army to enter mountain regions without being noticed, a way to send spy and retrieve information


    safely, if needed, their army to attack. In both my age and your father¡¯s age, we searched every inch of


    the mountain but we found none. I guess, you found it.¡± Grandpa Kai said, Zaden nodded


    ¡°And the rogues turned it to a way to bring poached animals out. Great¡­We have to find a way to


    close the passage way¡± Zaden said with determination.


    ¡°But the passages are cast with a spell so that no werewolf will be able to detect it. How did you guys


    find out?¡± Grandpa Kai asked and all of them looked at Selena, who have sessfully found her tub of


    chocte ice-cream and busy digging it. At the end ofmunal meeting, everyone went out minding


    their own business. Zaden was still there, semi-seated on a table. Selena also walked towards the door


    but before she walk out, she remembered something and turned back to Zaden. She came stand next


    to him, her tiny soft fingers caressed his scrape wound


    ¡°Does it hurt?¡± her innocent eye made him numb and he shook his head ¡®no¡¯. He held her hand and


    started fiddling with her fingers.


    ¡°You shouldn¡¯t have stood in front, unarmed like that¡­¡± he focused on her finger, ignoring her words.


    ¡°By the way, you don¡¯t need to buy chocte and ice-cream everyday¡­¡± Selena said, he let out a


    chuckle.


    ¡°You eat way too much sugar than an actual food, do you know that?¡± she nodded frantically and he


    chuckled some more.


    ¡°Meet you at 11pm? You won¡¯t bete, would you?¡± Zaden


    ¡°No, I will be on time¡± Selena said and there was a pause.


    ¡°After this 15days issue¡­We can go visit your dad every week¡­ sometimes I go to city more than


    once a week, so¡­¡± he whispered and she nodded.


    ¡°Do you regreting back?¡± she shook her head no


    ¡°Do you¡­ever want to go back?¡± he whispered with hesitation, leaning too close to her and she


    dropped her vision to his chest.


    ¡°Hmm¡­sometimes¡­Ouch!!!¡± she just got a pinch on her hands


    ¡°Get lost¡± Zaden said coldly before moving away from her. She sticked her tongue out and walked


    away but just before stepping out


    ¡°But I never wanted to stay away¡­¡± she said loud enough for him to hear and went forward. He smiled


    at her words.


    As per n, Selena came out of the house at 11pm and Zaden was waiting for her around the rose


    edges. White t-shirt and light blue jeans, with his leather strap branded watch, a grey boots. Selena


    froze for a minute as this whole thing looked familiar, the first dream she had with her dream crush with


    minor changes. He extended his hand for Selena to grab and she did with a dead pan expression.


    They started walking away. Through the firefly field, each step paced slowly as tiny burst of firefly rose


    up. Selena bit her lower lips with a smile as she observes a few firefly that managed to rise up to her


    eye level. She didn¡¯t notice, but Zaden was doing the same too only not at the firefly, but at her.


    ¡°You look beautiful today¡­¡± he finally spoke, making Selena stiffen her back.


    ¡°Excuse me¡­Since when have you started givingpliments?¡± She asked with a frown and he


    smiled.


    ¡°I won¡¯t lie, you look nice when you smile but you rarely smile, so do the math¡± Selena said as she


    squinted her eye. He pulled her hand, making her crash to his arms, standing really close to him. Her


    cheeks were touching his arms and she looked up at him. His eyes admiring every bit of her face. The


    suffering in his heart is bing more and more inevitable, day by day. He needed Selena as much


    as his wolf needed hers. He pulled out the other hand that was in his pocket and out came a small


    piece of chocte. He gave it to Selena


    ¡°That¡¯s it?¡± she huffed out


    ¡°You said chocte, you didn¡¯t say specifically how big or how small¡± Zaden smiled. She unwrapped it


    and put it in her mouth.


    ¡°Can I ask you something?¡± Selena said, in her usual low sweet voice. Yes she rambles but only when


    she panics, yes she is childish but she has her own pain too, yes she is sarcastic but she know where


    to stop. But not even once, has her voice became unbearable or naggy to Zaden.


    ¡°Ha, finally. I thought I brought the wrong girl with me¡± Zaden mocked her and she pushed him yfully


    by his arm


    ¡°You said you are sure Ozrain ising. Why are you so sure?¡± Selena questioned and Zaden fiddled


    with her fingers.


    ¡°Because¡­ he has been looking for you for 200 years¡­I don¡¯t think he would give up someone like


    you that easily. I know I wouldn¡¯t if I ever had a baby like you. So, he would definitely know that you are


    here and when he does, he won¡¯t waste any more time¡± Zaden said


    ¡°When he does, what will happen?¡± Selena had to ask


    ¡°Frankly, I don¡¯t know¡­ if he wants to take you away, nothing can stop him¡±


    ¡°Except for me¡­¡± Selena¡¯s voice changed into the deep, sexy voice and Zaden snapped his eyes at


    her. When he saw the ck eye and the killer smile, a sense of freedom surged him. He pulled her by


    neck and kissed her passionately. The silent woods is now bombarded with his kissing sound.


    ¡°Oh baby, you have no idea how long I have waited to kiss you¡­How long I have to control the urge to


    kiss you¡± she giggled


    ¡°And now you are free to kiss or do whatever you want¡­¡± she said as her fingers circled his chest. She


    then unbuttoned her ck shirt, eyes sharp on Zaden as he watched bit by bit of her body revealing.


    She shifted into her wolf once the undressing isplete. Zaden did the same and ran with her. They


    reachedke Khalifa within 15 minutes and shifted back to semi. They resumed their kiss, with Zaden


    cupping her jawline. He moved to her neck and she moaned


    ¡°She made me kneel to her today. Now, it¡¯s your turn to kneel in front of me.¡± Zaden said and she did


    as told. He slide his palms behind her neck and thrust his now erect manhood into her mouth, gazing


    her eye with every thrust, each growing deeper and deeper and deeper. He can control himself


    anymore and pushed her toy t on the grass, and moved down, thrusting into her delicate part,


    making her yelp. She was already wet even though nothing done to make her so. He thrust his full


    length into her as his skin pped against hers


    ¡°DO. NOT. MAKE. ME. KNEEL¡± he said each word between his merciless thrusts. He then opened


    wide totch on her breast as much as possible, biting gently


    ¡°SELENA!!!¡± she screamed, cursing her other half for putting her into this situation. He smiled like a


    Satan before turning her around and thrusting her from behind, before she could even kneel. She


    struggled to get to her knees and when she did, it became even much worst. The pleasure, an


    addictive pleasure that is delivered through his punishment made her scream his name, screeching


    through the silence of the night, till he filled her with his rain of seeds and copsed to her abdomen.


    He remained there, engulfed in her body heat as they both are breathing heavy.


    ¡°I am not sorry¡­¡± he said in low voice making her chuckle. He then kissed her abdomen, again and


    again. Her soft smooth skin felt like baby¡¯s nket. She-wolves are generally very pretty but Selena


    was surely an exception. After a long silence, Zaden spoke


    ¡°Does she love me?¡±


    ¡°I can¡¯t speak for her¡­¡± Selena


    ¡°I¡¯m not asking you to speak on her behalf. Consider it as information sharing.¡± She giggled, her fingers


    running through his hair


    ¡°I don¡¯t know¡± Selena


    ¡°Does she love anyone else?¡± Zaden


    ¡°It¡¯s Selena. She loves everyone¡­¡± Selena


    ¡°I mean does she¡­¡±


    ¡°Shu¡­you have the whole morning to talk to her about her likes and dislikes. I have only hours, before


    break of dawn and between your ravage desire. You have to ask her yourself if you must know¡­now,


    let me enjoy my alpha¡­¡± with that she cupped Zadens face and pulled his lips by her teeth. A low


    growl rumbled through him and there goes another round of savage love making.

 CHAPTER 33

    CHAPTER 33


    Another new mark on her body, this time in the most odd ce, engulfing her breast. After getting


    dressed, she went to find Zaden


    ¡°Zaden¡­I need to know where is thiske Khalifa?.¡± She said once she found him at the corridor,


    outside his room


    ¡°Why?¡± he frowned deeply as he suspects there is something wrong here


    ¡°I¡­need to check this ce. I have never been awake at this ce.¡± Zaden crossed his arms with a


    cocked brow, indicating he doesn¡¯t believe her and she sighed out, dropped her head to look at her


    hands.


    ¡°I always find marks on my body, in hidden spot after we return from there¡­¡± she whispered. Her eye


    still on her hands, as if there is something amusing about her pinky nail digging her thumb nail and that


    subtle movement, triggers unwanted response in him. Zaden swallowed his saliva, he is well aware of


    what are those marks.


    ¡°I told you¡­your wolf is crazy. She might have wounded or scrapped herself when running wild¡± he


    said low, checking his surrounding every now and then


    ¡°In circle shape?¡± Selena finally looked up at him with a cocked eyebrow.


    ¡°Oh that¡­probably some insect bite. I had themst time we went there too¡± he licked his lips, image of


    him biting her breast came shing back, constricting his breathing. He reminded himself to be more


    careful next time.


    ¡°Oh ok then¡­¡±she turned around and walked away as Zaden observed her curves that it clear through


    her white button up shirt. He cleared his throat


    ¡°Could you¡­hmm¡­ maybe change your shirt?¡± she turned around


    ¡°Why? What¡¯s wrong with this shirt?¡± she asked


    ¡®Nothing but enticing me for more¡¯ he thought to himself.


    He sighed out and walked passed her towards themunal room. She stretched her shirt at her belly


    and looked down when Orion came out of his room.


    ¡°Orion, is there something wrong with my shirt?¡±


    ¡°A transparent white chiffon shirt, 3 button undone with white spaghetti strap inner top, a slim fitting


    ck jeans and a calf high ck boots? Nothing !!!¡± he eximed and walked pass her


    ¡°She is testing me every minute of my day¡± he mumbled to himself. Selena stood there blur before


    following them tomunal room. They were discussing how to cover up the pit hole and designating


    a team for that job before moving on to next jobs that was mainly on their business in the city. It was


    very boring and Selena kept stirring in her seat, bugging Make to leave for the territorial tour. Orion


    and Zaden noticed her. Zaden signaled Orion towards the mini fridge with his eye. Orion took a tub of


    ice-cream, walked over to Selena, thrust the tub into her hands before pinching her cheeks that has


    balled up due to her grin. Now, they can continue discussing in peace. Grandpa Kai smiled, thinking of


    how the pack treating her, like a baby. After they have wrapped up and kept away all the files neatly


    ¡°Zaden¡­my wolf didn¡¯t tell you anything new yesterday?¡± all eye fanned to Zaden


    ¡°Hmm¡­she said only she can defeat Ozrain¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s all???¡± Zaden nodded


    ¡°You had the whole night and that¡¯s all you can get from her?¡± everyone took a seat, this should be


    interesting.This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    ¡°Well, what you want to know?¡± Zaden sat in front of her, crossed his leg and looked straight at her.


    Selena looked around, everyone eye was on her


    ¡°Like can she feel the Elisa in me? Is it true that I¡¯m her rebirth or just a bloodline? And why now, why


    me, why there were no werewolf before me...and¡­hmm¡­never mind¡± she cut off, stood up and


    walked out. The packs exchanged a weird look. Make walked as fast as she can towards Selena,


    grabbed her arms into a hug and guide her to the pack school. The rest stood there watching the girls,


    Zaden and Orion focused especially at the shiny ck, bouncy curls with silver stripes, swaying left


    and right just above her hip curves.


    It took quite a long walk to the pack school. It was a small building made out of woods with a lot ofrge


    windows, allowing a lot of air flow. It was situated next to a small stream of river flowing by, fresh water


    supply for the school. Spacious desks and benches were provided and there were about 20 kids


    already in ss with 3 omega she-wolves and a male teacher, who looked more like a boxer then a


    fatherly figure.


    ¡°Well, hello there.¡± He stretched his hand to Selena


    ¡°I¡¯m Nelson, the primary school teacher here and the owner of that hot stuff¡± he said, pointing at


    Make


    ¡°This is Selena, our new pack member.¡± Selena shook his hand while Make introduced her.


    ¡°You are her mate?¡± Selena asked and he nodded with a wide grin.


    ¡°Where are the other sses?¡± Selena asked and they both chuckled


    ¡°This is the only ssroom here. All students sit in group, ording to their age and I attend ording


    to their age¡± Nelson exined. Make guided Selena further to the back portion of the building where


    another building joined by a brick path. Higher school was going on there and another teacher, she-wolf


    was there, Rhea. After further talking, Selena found out that Rhea did master in Teaching, so that she


    could teach these teenagers. When she found out that Selena did Marine Biology, she invited her to


    exin about her course and Selena did so. The teenagers had a lot of question for her, regarding her


    field of studies. They invited Selena to a camping trip by theke that has been arranged by the school,


    in another 2 days and she agreed toe for a visit. When she was talking with the girls, Zaden and


    the pack showed up at the window of the school. Her head was immediately bombarded with


    thousands of dirty thoughts from the girls around her


    ¡®Oh yummy¡­¡¯


    ¡®Hmm¡­how I wish I could have both of them¡­¡¯ Selena mouth widened at one blonde girl after she


    heard her thoughts.


    ¡®I wonder how big he is, down there?¡¯


    ¡®Maybe he is a dominant in bed¡¯


    ¡®I want to grab hold of his¡­¡¯


    ¡°STOP, STOP just STOP!!!¡± Selena cut them off and covered her ears. She walked out of the room


    biting her lips


    ¡°What happen?¡± Orion


    ¡°You two better note here¡± Selena said with a chuckle


    ¡°Why?¡± Zaden asked confusedly


    ¡°Why? Didn¡¯t you hear what they were thinking? Didn¡¯t you get their mind-link?¡± Zaden and Orion


    exchanged


    ¡°No¡± they said chorus and Selena gazed at them with wide eye. She turned to look at Make and she


    also shook her head NO.


    They all were sitting at the river bank, surrounding Selena who was leaning back to back with Make


    ¡°Is this the first time you hearing peoples thought?¡± Sitka


    ¡°I heard them on thest full moon, when Zaden took me through them after the introduction. I have


    heard a lot from that day onwards but I thought it¡¯s all mind-link. How do you differentiate between


    mind-link and peoples thought?¡±. She asked in Zaden¡¯s direction. Make turned around making


    Selena fall on herp


    ¡°It¡¯smon sense, baby girl. For example today, why would someone mind-link you about their dirty


    thoughts¡± Make said


    ¡°I thought they are linking between themselves¡± Selena shrugged.


    ¡°Then why would you hear them?¡± Xavier now next to her, his face hovering on top of her


    ¡°Wait, your saying we can¡¯t hear a mind-link unless its directed to us?¡± Selena asked. Now Sitka is


    hovering on top of her.


    ¡°Have you heard anything you don¡¯t like?¡± Zaden¡¯s head popped in and immediately the pack


    exchanged look


    ¡°Shit!!! Selena, did you hear our mind?¡± Sitka


    ¡°How dare you, it¡¯s our personal space!!!¡± Xavier


    ¡°Guys, guys, leave her alone. We need to talk to Grandpa Kai first¡± Zaden .Thousand and one voices


    ovepping each other in Selena head as she already squeeze shut her eye and covered her ears.


    Suddenly, a hand grabbed her arm and pulled her out of Make¡¯sp with little effort.


    ¡°Come on you all, be a little considerate¡± Orion, one hand holding Selena¡¯s arm that he just pulled up


    and another at her back, pushing her closer to him.


    ¡° She is in amunity that is different from what she has grown up in, not understanding our culture


    and our abilities. She can¡¯t recall half of her day because she is in her wolf form and she is put through


    strenuous training because of our irrelevant fear that Ozrain Samrat might find her. For fucking hell, she


    is not even getting enough sleep. Have you guys noticed that she is losing weight? Now, she is not


    sure of what is going on in her OWN HEAD because we pulled her into our pack. The ability to mind-


    link must have opened her ability to read minds too, it¡¯s not her fault, it¡¯s ours because we caused it.


    Please, give her some space¡± Orion shut everyone up


    ¡°Alpha, I didn¡¯t expect this from you. You are the one who is always calm andposed, now look at


    you¡± Orion pointed at Zaden and Zaden bit his upper lip in guilt. Orion pulled Selena behind him, out of


    the ce


    ¡°Thanks¡­¡± Selena said in low voice and Orion smiled in return


    ¡°Have I really lost weight?¡± Selena¡¯s word made Orion chuckle


    ¡°Out of all I said, that¡¯s what you heard? And yes, right here¡± he grabbed her waist with his arm across


    her back, pulling her closer to him. His nose is touching hers, as his eyes yed between her eyes and


    lips. He lost his sense as he caressed her cheeks. The smile on Selena¡¯s face faded. He is losing his


    control. He grabbed her cheeks between his fingers, making her pout as he leaned for a quick kiss,


    sucking her lips. Too quick for Selena to react


    ¡°You should be happy here but that¡¯s not what you are getting. Zaden was right, you should have


    stayed back with your father, even if it means me dying slowly everyday¡± she blinked again and again


    with wide eye not believing he just kissed her, when he is in full consciousness, not like thest where


    he lost control of himself.

 CHAPTER 34

    CHAPTER 34


    It was already dark, and a 2 pair of footsteps where crashing through long grasses, releasing the spark


    of firefly


    ¡°Zaden, wait. Why are we running?¡± Selena said with panting breath


    ¡°I need to talk to you before your wolfes out¡± Zaden


    ¡°Then talk, don¡¯t run¡± she pulled her hand which is in Zaden¡¯s hands and halt him. She then grabbed


    her knees, trying to catch up with her breathing. Zaden thought for a while, frowning at the fragile


    Selena.


    ¡°I¡¯m sorry¡­for what happen this morning¡­¡± he finally came out with his words. Selena stood up slowly.


    ¡°It¡¯s fine¡­no big deal¡± Selena shrugged her shoulder


    ¡°No, it is. Orion was right. We have been...no¡­I have been pushing you really hard¡± his voice softened


    as he walked closer to her and she smiled with a wink at him


    ¡°You wanted to ask your wolf something but you swallowed it. What was it?¡± he asked causing Selena


    to agitated. After a moment of thinking, she pulled out her locket from the depth of her chest


    ¡°I had or have a dream crush¡­I wanted to ask about him.¡± She said, pondering on the locket


    ¡°But why? He is just a dream, I suppose?¡± Zaden crossed his arm over chest


    ¡°I haven¡¯t had a chance to meet him or precisely dream him, after you left me at my dad¡¯s house. I was


    first depressed, then I came here and¡­¡±


    ¡°Wait wait wait!!!¡± Zaden blinked a few times


    ¡°You were depressed after I left or after we left?¡± he tilted his head down abit to face her, biting his lips


    in anticipation. Her eyes flickered on the ground filled with grass before she grabbed her skirt and ran


    away from Zaden, as fast as she can.


    ¡°Selena!!!Wait!!!¡± Zaden shouted before he followed her


    ¡°Faster, we arete¡± her voice came from far. She just realized in the past minute that she actually


    missed him most, even more then the dream crush. The day at her house, when she was stuck


    between Orion and Zaden, she was more provoke by Zaden then by Orion. Zaden¡¯s lips, his warm


    breath and his soft tongue is the one that made her came undone, not Orion¡¯s passionate kiss. They


    both care for her, probably love her too but she leaned abit more towards Zaden.


    ¡°Selena!!! Answer me¡­¡± Zaden was able to caught up with her.


    ¡°I miss Granpda Kai the most, ok?¡± Selena said with a yful smile. Zaden bent down as soon as he


    reached her and lift her up, in his arms


    ¡°Hmm¡­I wonder what that old hag did to you to the point you missed him so much? You ran away


    from your father and climbed a mountain for what, 8 hours? ¡° she nodded


    ¡°8 hours before you found the brick house¡­What?¡± Zaden stopped when he saw Selena¡¯s face turning


    confused


    ¡°I passed through the camping zone, maybe somewhere next to the trap pit and walked another 5


    hours before I got to you. Howe no one detected me even after I passed the pit? Grandpa Kai said


    the passage was spelled, not the whole mountain. And even if the whole mountain was spellbound,


    howe I didn¡¯t get detected when I left the seventh mountain?¡± Zaden paid attention to every word


    she just said. There is something on the seventh mountain that made her undetectable by territory


    patrol pack. He was deep in thought, staring at theke when a gentle finger ran from his temple to his


    jawline. He snapped his head to see Selena in ck eye. His heart fluttered but he didn¡¯t let his wolf


    take control


    ¡°What? I can¡¯t have my mate now?¡± she slide off his hand and asked in the most seductive, husky


    voice.


    ¡°I have some questions and I need to stay focus and¡­ oh god¡­¡± she leaned forward and kissed


    between his chest with her tongue tracing an S right in the mid, sessfully shutting down Zaden and


    bringing out his wolf.


    ¡°Go on¡­ ask me¡­stay focused¡­¡± she whispered as she traced her tongue straight up till it hit his


    throat. She had to tiptoe, making her butt extra firm to touch.


    ¡°Remember¡­I¡¯m not obligated to answer your questions. I¡¯m here to shift and release pent-up energy.


    You have to ask the right question¡± Her fingers where fiddling with his shirt buttons, undoing one at a


    time, till his shirt came off.


    ¡°Selena¡­¡± he whispered very low with his eyes closed


    ¡°Hmm¡­¡± she replied as an indication for him to carry on.


    ¡°She wanted to know about her dream boy¡­¡± Zaden said low and she giggled before moving down,


    nting kisses all the way till his lower abdomen, kneeling on the ground. She then unbuckled his belt


    ¡°What about him that I would be able to tell?¡± she unzipped him, lowering his pants.


    ¡°It¡¯s not like I know who he is¡± her eye darted back to his eye


    ¡°Or whose amulet is that hiding in my cleavage all the time except during sleep, do I?¡± she took in his


    erection into her mouth, making him throw his head up, exhaling slowly at the sensation her lips fire


    through him


    ¡°No, you don¡¯t¡­¡± Zaden whispered. Selena let go of his full length and started licking him


    ¡°Then who knows it all? Tell me¡­¡± she took his length back in, looking up at his face. He slides his


    hand through her hair and caressed her head gently, not pushing nor pulling her away, simply enjoying


    her every movement


    ¡°I do¡­¡± he said and she let out a deep moan


    ¡°It¡¯s mine¡­ I lost it in the waterfall and she¡­¡± he swallowed his saliva ¡°She found it¡­I made her wear


    it and entered her dream through it, every day until she got too intimidated and took it off¡­¡± again she


    let go of him


    ¡°And whose fault is it, that she got intimidated? You raped her in her dreams?¡± she pulled him down


    and kissed him in his lips passionately, till their breath mingled before pushing him to the ground and


    straddling on top of him.


    ¡°I didn¡¯t mean to¡­I got too enticed by her that day¡­arghh¡­¡± She already made him enter her while


    she was at top, now moving up and down slowly


    ¡°That is wrong Zaden¡­you shouldn¡¯t rape a woman at any cost¡­unless¡± she bend down to nibble his


    earlobe, whispering dangerous words


    ¡°Unless she wants to be rough with you¡­understand?¡± he nodded like an obedient boy, biting down his


    lips, eyes still closed. She is moving too slow, driving him crazy¡­


    ¡°Selena please, baby I need you¡­¡± her butt clenched at his words, making her even tighter than before


    and they moaned. He then grabbed her hip and started smashing up into her. Her body shook


    uncontrobly. She screamed and moaned his name to the point where their lust was spread across


    their surroundings, enticing any other animals that could be there. They both came undone and he


    flipped her to her back before lifting her shirt andying on her stomach.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.


    ¡°She also wanted to know if she is really Elisa Mitkoi reincarnation or just a long lost bloodline?¡± Zaden


    asked, too tired that he could fall asleep anytime now


    ¡°Of course she is a rebirth of Elisa Mitkoi. Or else where did she get that beauty from? Why she still


    can¡¯t feel me within her? It¡¯s Elisa, she is the barrier between us. She is preventing her from fully


    transforming into werewolf.¡± Zaden snapped his head up at her


    ¡°You said the energy bottled up is the cause she can¡¯t stay awake when shifting?¡± Zaden confused


    ¡°Yes, but I didn¡¯t say whose energy it was. It was Elisa¡¯s energy, trying to suppress me froming


    out. At full moon, when I radiate 5 times more, the energy Elisa puts out to suppress me is greater and


    Selena takes the hit.¡± She said


    ¡°So, basically you two are battling within her¡± she nodded with a gentle blink although with that ck


    eye, it looked scary as hell could be.


    ¡°Elisa¡¯sst breath was on eclipse night, so she doesn¡¯t show up that day. I hope I can connect with


    Selena and break the chain. But Zaden, you might not like that Selena, the one where both of us are


    combined¡­¡± she giggled. Zaden fall back to her stomach and huffed


    ¡° I can wait to see¡± he said sarcastically.


    ¡°Why now? Why after skipping so many generation?¡± Zaden asked some more


    ¡°Alpha, I think you are asking too much information without properly gratifying me¡± she said with a


    growl and Zaden jumped up, grabbing her hands and pinning them to her side before he devours her


    beauty, a little rougher then preferred


    ¡°Be gentle¡­she is suffering from sore and bite marks every morning¡­¡±


    ¡°Ya I know but can you be less beautiful to facilitate me into being gentle?¡± with that he continued his


    assault to her beauty, sipping every drop of honey she could offer until he is panting for breath. He


    cuddled back to her stomach only this time, she is naked.


    ¡°It wasn¡¯t a skip, Zaden. We tried reincarnating before, but failed as the elements we needed didn¡¯t


    match exactly¡± she said with a hint of sorrow in her tone


    ¡°What elements?¡± Zaden


    ¡°A father, a mother, a brother, a mate that would love her till the end of world and she, Elisa Mitkoi. She


    wanted to relive the live she had lost, Zaden¡­¡±


    ¡°Wait, what happens when the 5 doesn¡¯t match together?¡± Zaden is terrified with the possible answer


    ¡°We die¡­as a newborn itself¡± a drop of tear fell from her eye, hitting her ears. Zaden climbed up to her,


    hugging her into his chest


    ¡°Shu¡­I thought you are different from you human. Turns out you both carry abit of each other in you¡±


    Selena fell asleep on Zaden¡¯s chest. He recalled how Orion burst earlier today, that she isn¡¯t getting


    enough rest. He had to agree with that. They stay up until 2 or 3 in the morning, wake up again at 5.30


    or 6 am, walk back to home and get ready for training session. He wanted to give her a few more hours


    of rest, so he carried her, all the way back home, with her sleeping in his arms. Thankfully she was


    dressed. She weighs almost nothing to him and little weight that was felt, remedied by her beauty that


    Zaden gazed upon the whole walk.


    Back at home, he took her to her room and ced her on her bed. She stirred to herfortable fetal


    position. Seeing that he recalled how her wolf told him they died as newborns 4 times before finally


    finding the perfect condition for her rebirth. Elisa Mitkoi had suffered so much to be reborn and relive


    her live. If only she had done it in another body, out of Samrat¡¯s bloodline, she would have lived a much


    more peaceful life. A burden fell on Zaden, it¡¯s not only his mate that is being protected. It¡¯s the thirst of


    a woman, a basic desire to live happily with her beloved. It is unbelievable that her portrayal of true


    love is actually the person who killed her as well.

 CHAPTER 35

    CHAPTER 35


    ¡°It doesn''t make sense. It just doesn¡¯t add up¡± Selena said with a frown to the pacing Zaden.


    ¡°What doesn¡¯t add up?¡± Zaden. Selena stretched her hands and patted on the chair next to her,


    gesturing him to sit down.


    ¡°When you keep walking like this, your blood flow gets interrupted and you can''t think properly. So, SIT¡±


    her hands were circling in the air next to her head, mocking him. Zaden did as told and looked at her


    with intense re, like ¡®this better be good¡¯ re


    ¡°Elisa put all the effort to be reborn into a family that is perfect, that resembles her original family and a


    mate that will love her forever and ever, correct?¡±Zaden nodded. He hid the part where he is her mate.


    He simply said her mate is already born.


    ¡°Let''spare, shall we? Elisa didn''t believe in god, I don''t believe in god. Elisa''s life took a horrible


    turn because Ozrain found his mate, I don''t believe in mate concept either. So, if I believe in love,


    doesn''t that means she believes in love too?¡± they all took their time, gave it a deep thought and


    nodded slowly.


    ¡°If she was killed by Ozrain and she knows it, howe she still believes in love?¡± they all stiffened at


    her logic, which is spot on


    ¡°Either Ozrain didn''t kill her or she is here to kill Ozrain and possibly my mate too¡± Zaden turned his


    face to the side, hiding from others as his eye widened and swallowed at herst word.


    ¡°Think about it, when the person that you love the most in this whole world kills you, don''t you want to


    curse or frame him in your death confession? But Elisa''s manuscript trantion didn''t mention The


    King, or Ozrain or my love or Oz Dear or darling or...¡± she got cut off by Make


    ¡°We get it!!!¡± they all dropped their head, thinking deeply. She and her questioning ability is definitely a


    gift


    ¡°In my opinion, we should recheck the manuscript. Just in case the elderly left out any part¡± Selena said


    with her chin resting in her palm. After a pause, Selena straightened her back and pped her thighs


    with her palms


    ¡°Right, you guys figure that out and also why I was able to run around Mountain Manuka without being


    detected the day I came back here. I have things to do¡± she stood up and grabbed her jacket


    ¡°What you have to do here without us?¡± Orion asked


    ¡°I''m going to the school and YOU two, don''te there¡± she pointed at Zaden and Orion.


    ¡°Bye Grandpa Kai, I will miss you¡± she kissed Grandpa Kai cheeks before walking out, puzzling every


    one of her sudden affection towards Grandpa Kai but Zaden knew she was teasing him and of course,


    Grandpa Kai all lit up with toothy grin, beaming miles away.


    Selena had just walked into the school when Sophie greeted her with a forceful hug. Selena carried her


    to her ss.


    ¡°Hi, Selena right?¡± Nelson asked and Selena nodded.


    This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.


    ¡°I''m getting bored at the brick house. The girls wanted extra help with their mathematics, so... here I


    am¡± she shrugged her shoulder


    ¡°Girls always need help with mathematics...go ahead¡± Nelson pointed out her way


    ¡°Not all girls Mr. Nelson...¡± Selena huffed in annoyance before leaving him behind. As expected, the


    girls were very excited to see Selena. They did gather up to finish their math homework and n the


    trip tomorrow but mostly they were asking about Zaden and Orion. There was this one girl, Jenny who


    was extremely interested in Orion. She must be the one with the most extreme thought the day before.


    ¡°Does the beta ever sleep with the omegas? I heard they can, you know, ¡®USE¡¯ an omega as they


    please, anytime of the day¡± Jenny


    ¡°Oh god Jenny, I don''t know, I don''t care and honestly, I have never seen them close with any other


    woman other than Make" They sighed out with a long face


    ¡°I had always fantasied, being their omega and satisfying both of them at once with...¡± Jenny got cut off


    by Selena


    ¡°OH dear god, please stop whatever you were thinking of saying¡± Selena eximed


    ¡°Ohe on Selena...you have never had such fantasies? Sex is boring without fantasy. Don''t you


    ever yearned for a change?¡± One of the other girls said


    ¡°I don''t have fantasies, I don''t need a change because I am a virgin. Excuse me, I have to go¡± Selena


    tried to get up but the girls pulled her back down


    ¡°Are you really a virgin? I mean, even at this age?¡± Selena nodded


    ¡°Oh my god Selena, your missing out major stuff here. Each and every electrifying touch, their soft,


    tender yet harassing lips, and when they get in between your legs¡± Selena''s eye widened


    ¡°Shut up¡± she stood up and the girls pulled her down again. She plopped to the ground with a whimper.


    She starts to feel like it''s a mistakeing here.


    ¡°If this is how you girls are going to behave, I''m noting to camping tomorrow or here, ever again¡±


    Selena warned them


    ¡°Oh rx Selena, someone has to teach you these stuffs, isn''t it...she haven''t even got to the most


    important part...their hard, erect, honey dripping...¡± Selena shut her ears, shot up and ran away from


    there, looking back asionally. She turned around to see the girls rushing out of their ssroom and


    she bumped to something in front her and staled back, missing her bnce. A pair of hands stretched


    around her waist and pulled her roughly against a hard chest. Selena opened her eyes that was


    squeezed shut till now and saw the dreamy bronzy chocte eye with gold rim. It was Zaden. He


    straightened himself up with Selena in his embrace. He raised both his hands from her waist to her hair


    and ran through them, correcting her hairline, making them neat. He wore a deep frown


    ¡°What''s wrong?¡± he is now cupping her cheeks, making it bulge slightly.


    ¡°The girls...they...¡± Selena turned around to see the girls stunned at their spot, when they saw their


    alpha. Zaden sighed out


    ¡°Get back to your ss¡± he ordered and the girls scrambled back in


    ¡°What are you doing here?¡± Selena asked. Zaden had let go of her cheeks and holding her shoulder to


    walk side by side to him.


    ¡° I missed Rhea so much, so I came to visit her¡± Selena rolled her eyes before ring him. He smirked


    to her reaction.


    ¡°Can I ask you something personal?¡± After a lot of thinking, Selena decided to ask him, he nodded


    ¡°Do you sleep with Omega she-wolfs?¡± Zaden snapped his head to her, with a serious expression


    ¡°Where did you get that from?¡± he asked


    ¡°The girls, they told me¡± Selena said and Zaden sighed out


    ¡°No more meeting the girls, understood?¡± Zaden said coldly


    ¡°But we nned camping together, tomorrow.¡±


    ¡°No, Selena¡±Zaden


    ¡°Why not?¡±Selena


    ¡°Because I said so¡± Zaden said sternly and walked away but Selena refused to follow him. She stood


    crossing her arms across chest, right where he left her. Realizing she is not next to him, Zaden looked


    over his shoulder to see her ring at him. He turnedpletely, a hand in his pocket and another


    gesturing her


    ¡°Come here¡± She didn''t budge. Zaden slowly tilted his head down and red intensely at her, like he is


    really mad at her. Selena agitated and dropped her hand. A few more seconds and she gave up,


    walked to him, pass him when he grabbed her arm and pulled her to him.


    ¡°You can go... provided Ie with you, ok?¡± his chin rite above her ears when he said it low


    ¡°And have them rape my mind, ah ah, not going to happen.¡± She protested.


    ¡°That''s settled, the whole pack will apany you to camping tomorrow.¡± Zaden said casually and


    continued walking


    ¡°Didn''t you hear me? I''m not going¡± Selena said aloud to his back and he waved at her.


    ¡° Zaden wait, is the rumors true...¡± Selena ran behind him


    The photocopy of manuscript that Make took was sent to elders one more time. This time, Xavier


    took it to the elderly vige by himself. It will take days for him to cross over to them.


    The nights at Lake Khalifa has always been beautiful but when his beloved woman was there, in his


    arm, naked as a newborn baby, the night is more divine.


    ¡°Zaden... am I any good as the omega she-wolfs?¡± the semi- wolf talked with her usual deep husky


    voice, fingers tracing the mid of his chest.


    ¡°What? You heard that?¡± Zaden answered with another question and she nodded


    ¡°No she-wolf in this world can be better then you, you understand that?...¡± he said and she sighed out


    ¡°Selena never wanted or even interested in any man, you know? It''s disappointing that you are not like


    her and I get restless when I see the omega''s at house. It must be one of them, right?¡± Zaden turned


    her around gently andid his cheeks on her stomach


    ¡°I''m older than you and passed mating age long time ago, naughty girl. How am I supposed to gratify


    my needs if not for those she-wolfs? It was just a mere sex, they get wet the minute they see me and I


    just fuck them. Never have I went down on my knees and tasted them. Never ever I had let any she-


    wolf enjoy my body. Never have I enjoyed every bit of sex the way I do with you, I don''t even touch


    them¡± Zaden said low and husky, with a hint of sorrow. She ran her fingers across his hair, making him


    snuggle more to her stomach.


    ¡°I''m sorry I didn''t wait for you...seriously, I didn''t think that I would find a mate¡± he ced a kiss on her


    navel before hugging her waist


    ¡°The minute I felt you, at the mountain foot...oh god, I can''t exin that feeling. Every single cell in my


    body was yearning to hug you, kiss you and submit under your feet. When I smelled your arousal, I


    became out of control and I don''t want to risk raping you, so I ran away¡± he looked up at her face


    ¡°I fell for your like raindrop from cloud, falling fast and shattering on earth. I''m counting days, trying to


    push the sun off the mountain. I''m going to tell her after this 15 days. She has too much trouble right


    now.¡± Heid another kiss on her stomach


    ¡°What if we don''t get through these 15 days?¡± Selena asked. Zaden looked up at her with a frown


    ¡°Why would you say that?¡± she slowly sat up, hiding her naked upper torso with her thighs while Zaden


    was half way propped up at her butt level with one of his elbow, the other holding her hand.


    ¡°My situation isplicated, Zaden. To be honest, I have an instinct that this is all too good to be true,


    that it might fall apart at any moment now. Yes, I had gone through a lot to get to this point but losing


    you might be unbearable for me. That might finally put an end to me.¡± She cupped his face and ced


    her forehead to his. A drop of tear rolled down her cheek. Zaden moved to her cheeks and kissed the


    rolling tears.


    ¡°I have the same fear too...can you promise me one thing?¡± she looked into his eye


    ¡°Promise me that no matter what happen, you will keep shifting every night. Promise me that you would


    keep on doing this with or without me...¡± he whispered and her tears rolled even more


    ¡°Selena doesn''t understand the magnitude this might blow up to. I need her to be able to protect


    herself...no way she can do that in her innocent human form. Like you said, you are strong, she is


    smart and cunning. When bind together, you can survive without me. Promise that you will survive


    without me...¡± she nodded and slowly shifted to wolf, still looking straight into his eye. The silver wolf


    licked below his chin, making him giggle and he shifted too. They didn''t bother to run today. Instead,


    they sat on the bank, next to each other, observing the moon light, nuzzling affectionately once in a


    while. What an odd thing love is, the need for your loved one to live on even when you might


    not.

 CHAPTER 36

    CHAPTER 36


    As promised, Zaden and the leader¡¯s pack took or dragged Selena to the camping site. And as


    expected, she didn¡¯t have any peace of mind. For time being, her mind hearing capability only works on


    protecting this 5 people. It might have worked to her father and brother as well, but there is no way of


    finding out since they are not with her. Zaden and Orion behaved as if they have prenned to make


    Selena suffer. They attended to the girls, talked to them in private, even gave a weing hug to them.


    Their thought train was wrecking hell in Selena, purely raw. She could never figure out how school girls,


    younger than her, could have known such vivid information about sex. If only their thoughts had been


    put to work at the same time, Zaden and Orion would be ripped to pieces. Sophie also came to the


    camping, as the teacher¡¯s pet. Theke that they have chosen is Lake Thao, the sameke that


    allowed everyone to fish at their wish. A wooden nk bridge with simple handrail had been installed,


    which was not there thest time Selena came here. A new instation to facilitate or encourage


    fishing. Selena was sitting on the bank of the river with her head between her knees, when someone


    plopped next to her.


    ¡°Having fun?¡± It was Orion


    ¡°You know, I just made a cklist and you are number 1 on it, followed by your alpha.


    Congrattions!!!¡± she said with a pursed lips, making Orion to chuckle. Right at that moment, Sophie


    ran into Orion¡¯sp.


    ¡°Orion, can be go swimming?¡± she asked in the most cutest ent.


    ¡°¡±Oh no sweety, you are not good at swimming and theseke is very deep¡­¡± he said in a sweet tone


    but all they get is a downward curled lips and a sad face. She turned to Selena


    ¡°Prewty girl, can you swim in deep waters?¡± sensing where this is going, Selena shook her head no


    with the same downward curled lips and sad eyes.


    ¡°I don¡¯t understand, you are grownups, you are supposed to know everything¡± Orion looked at Selena


    with a longing look


    ¡°Not always, sweety¡­ we have our own inabilities too¡± he said, eyes still on Selena. He had been


    trying to tell her how he feel about her, but till now he doesn¡¯t know how. There are things grown up are


    incapable of. Afterining a few more minutes, Sophie ran away to her mother, probably with the


    same question, making Selena and Orion smile


    ¡°Selena¡­do you like it here, in Mount Manuka?¡± he asked, probing her to talk.


    ¡°Yes¡­what not to like¡­I mean, I miss my family but Zaden promised to bring me to meet them once


    this 15days is over¡± she said casually. She rolled her eye, followed with a tight blink when a girl passed


    by them as her eye ogling Orion. Orionughed at her


    ¡°Shut up¡± she snapped and red back at the girl


    ¡°Ok fine¡­what do you like the most here?¡± he asked after hisughter is suppressed


    ¡°The nature¡­the clean breeze and the beautiful mountains¡­¡± she answered


    ¡°Whom do you like the most here?¡± Orion


    ¡°Everyone except for those school girls¡± she said still ring at them


    ¡°No, no, I mean specifically¡­ do you find anyone that you like exceptionally deeper than all of us?¡±


    Orion probed, his smile line around at the corner of his eyes haven¡¯t faded from hisstughter.


    Selena¡¯s eye froze at the ground when one face pops up in regards of Orion¡¯s question, Zaden. She


    started fiddling with the grass.


    ¡°Well¡­¡± just at that moment, they heard arge ssh and snapped their head towards the source.


    Sophie¡¯s mother was wrecking hell, shouting and wringing her hand at the edge of nk bridge. Zaden


    was nowhere nearby. Selena and Orion stood up and ran to the water in lightning speed. Orion jumped


    immediately but Selena stood there looking into the water and ripple marks and had an instinct to


    where Sophie must have fallen. She jumped into that direction. Just as she expected, she saw


    something in pink, the dress Sophie was wearing and steered herself towards it. She managed to grab


    the child and swim up but just before she could hit the surface, something grabbed on to her left feet.


    Selena struggled to release her feet but the grip was too strong. Bubbles of her breath is wasted in the


    struggle. Her brain started working. She could hold on a few more minutes but the child might not and


    Sophie could be the indicator of their location. She stretched her arms up and pushed Sophie to the


    surface, still fighting to release her legs. Within a sh, someone hade to grab Sophie. Once


    Sophie was out of her hand, Selena bent down to release her feet from whatever that it¡¯s stuck on. It


    wasn¡¯t something, it was someone. A skinny hand was encircling her feet, a very old, white and long


    nailed hand. She subconsciously screamed releasing an array of bubble to the surface. Orion who had


    just passed Sophie to her mother, looked back and didn¡¯t see Selena resurfacing but pops of bubbles


    came up. He knew something is wrong and he jumped back. Before he could reach her, Zaden already


    did and struggling to release her feet. Once Orion was there, they pulled her together with their wolf


    strength, effectively releasing her and they resurfaced up. Selena in the middle, Zaden hand crossed


    over her right chest to her left waist, and Orion¡¯s hand crossed over from her left chest to right waist.


    Her hand was on both man¡¯s shoulder and she was losing consciousness as ck vision took over.


    A few blinks. A blurry vision. Selena was gaining back her consciousness. The first person she saw


    once she regainedpletely was Zaden¡¯s dripping wet and worried face. He gave her gentle ps


    and she pushed herself to sit. She was surrounded by other the school girls and the leader¡¯s pack.


    ¡°Selena¡­can you hear me?¡± Orion was on her right. Selena held her forehead with the base of her


    palm. A stabbing pain exerted from her ankles. She hissed as she tried to turn her ankle. A red band


    has formed right around her ankle and the rest of her foot was purplish.


    ¡°Let¡¯s go to the hospital¡± Zaden bent down to lift her


    ¡°Wait!!!There was something in the water, what was that?¡± there was an array of gasp from the girls.


    ¡®Disperse¡¯


    With that mind-link, everyone left in a rush.


    ¡°What was there?¡±Orion asked since he didn¡¯t go deep enough to have seen the hand. Zaden saw it,


    he went down to her leg to release her


    ¡°There was something down there holding her feet. A creepy hand and a pair of red eye peeping out


    from the river bottom. I have no idea what is that and how long it has been here, but we will ask the


    elders if they know anything¡± Zaden exined in low and Orion¡¯s eye widened before he turned to the


    lake. He wanted to jump back in to check what was that but Selena stopped him.


    ¡°We don¡¯t know what that is, it¡¯s not safe¡± Selena calmed him down


    ¡°This is it¡­this is where it¡¯s going to fall apart¡­¡± Zaden with his eye ring at the waters. They sat


    there for a few more minutes before Zaden carried her to their hospital. Thankfully, nothing serious


    happen to her ankle, a sprain and bruises. Orion stayed with Selena while Zaden went back with


    Make to grab some of her stuffs and they also need to talk with Grandpa Kai.


    ¡°I have no idea and I have never heard of such a thing in our waters as well. I linked the elderlies if they


    have heard or seen such thing, they also have no idea, Zaden. What are we going to do? We can¡¯t


    have something that dangerous in our waters, where people go fishing regrly¡± Grandpa Kai said


    ¡°That¡¯s the thing. All this while, so many people have been going to theke for fishing. Even today,


    Sophie, Orion and I went till the bottom of theke but it only pulled Selena. Why? It must be specially


    attracted to her.¡± Zaden said and they all remained silent. With a dead end, they went back to the


    hospital, visited Selena. She was heavily dossed with drugs to fall asleep.


    Night came and no matter what happen, Selena has to shift to her wolf. Zaden carried her to Lake


    Khalifa. She was still weak due to the drugs injected into her body, so she leaned on Zaden¡¯s chest, not


    speaking a word, all the way toke. Zaden gently ced her down. It was 11.45pm and her wolf takes


    over exactly at 12 midnight.


    ¡°How are you feeling¡­¡± Zaden asked, sitting next to her, bent knees to his chest.


    This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    ¡°Drowsy¡­¡± she yawned


    ¡°But I¡¯m d I don¡¯t have to go resistance training tomorrow¡­¡± she bumped her shoulders to Zaden


    ¡°Who said anything about skipping¡± he bumped back


    ¡°Hey¡­I¡¯m sick, see¡± Selena pointed at her now heavily wrapped ankle and Zaden chuckled


    ¡°Drama queen!!! Aren¡¯t you scared?¡± Zaden asked and Selena put on a calm smile, merely a smile


    ¡°Are you saying I will die?¡± she cocked her eyebrow at Zaden and Zaden licked his lips in frustration


    ¡°That¡¯s not what I¡¯m saying¡± he said


    ¡°That¡¯s ok, you can say it. First step in solving any issue is to face the issue as it is and ept it as the


    problem¡± therees another calm smile


    ¡°If that¡¯s what is going to happen, then be it. I don¡¯t have regrets in my life. I just¡­just wish I could see


    my dad for onest time but then again, it could be danger to them. Why take the risk?¡± she


    shrugged.


    ¡°What is the second step?¡± Zaden tried to lighten the situation and it worked. They bothughed out.


    ¡°Asking the right question¡­That¡¯s your second step, remember that¡± She tapped her temple. She then


    gazed the horizon while Zaden gazed on her. For a fragile, little thing, she is surely far more matured,


    calm and thinks clear. Not long after that, her wolf came through and Zaden rushed his word as fast as


    she could


    ¡°She has her ankle sprained, be careful¡± he was grabbing her legs so that she won¡¯t rush to move.


    Instead of panicking, the ck eyed semi-wolf, giggled


    ¡°You seem to care about her more than you do for me¡­¡± she said


    ¡°Are you jealous of your other half?¡± Zaden


    ¡°Sort of¡­¡± and they both chuckled before Zaden ced a kiss on her lips.


    ¡°No sex today¡± Zaden whispered to her ears and she let out a pretend sob. Zaden gently pushed to lie


    down and he snuggled to her stomach


    ¡°Why do you like my stomach so much?¡± Zaden kept silence first to her question


    ¡°It¡¯s soft and warm, like a baby¡¯s nket, smells like my mate and most important, I can hear cute


    heartbeat from here¡­I forget all my worries and stresses when I snuggle to your body.¡± Zaden kissed


    her navel


    ¡°You have any idea what attacked you?¡± Zaden asked


    ¡°It¡¯s an ancient creature¡­lurking from one water body to another, summoned to look for someone.


    They feed it with a specific blood and then release to water. It will be craving for that 1 blood, refusing


    to eat anything else except for moss. It is rumored that Samrat had one, called Goya but died 200


    years ago. Apparently, it has been lurking for the past 200 years and found it¡¯s target today¡­¡± she said,


    sessfully making him anxious. He slowly sat up


    ¡°You mean someone knows that she is here?¡± he asked


    ¡°Those creatures, amphisbaena, they are just like snakes but with hands. They don¡¯t have the ability to


    mind-link or what so ever but if my guess is correct, it must be travelling back to its master. If it reaches


    his master, then yes, they know I am here¡± she said with a sad smile and before his eye, the woman


    laid on the grass turned into a wolf in a swift, while he keeps staring without blinking. She then licked


    his cheeks, begging to see her wolf in full form. He shifted and she moved with great effort to snuggle


    in the crook of his neck, cooing softly.

 CHAPTER 37

    CHAPTER 37


    ¡°A WHAT???¡± Sitka is at top of his anxiety level, figuring out thousands of counter attack they would


    need in the near future.


    ¡°Amphisbaena, she said. Now, first of all, it would be perfect if we can stop that thing from getting out of


    our waters. How are we going to find and fight that? Its buried in theke bottom¡± Zaden asked, they all


    had 1 answer but none dared to speak out


    ¡°Selena¡± A shaky voice came from behind, Grandpa Kai


    ¡°If the creature is still there, ites out for Selena¡± he said


    ¡°I was hoping for a n B¡± Zaden mumbled to himself.


    ¡°No, we can''t do that. She haven''t recovered from her injury and now we want to push her into the


    waters again? We might risk losing her¡± Orion eximed. The fear of losing her is real in his heart. He


    rarely sleptst night after knowing that the incident is an attack and not an ident. Everyone kept


    quiet, as if they agree with Grandpa Kai. Orion looked from one face to another and Zaden was deep in


    thought. Orion mmed his chair to the ground and walked out of themunal room. He headed


    straight to Lake Thao. He sat there, on the bank, reassessing what he could do. He wanted her, a


    throbbing pain in his heart is a clear sign of that. Giving her up to Samrat or throwing her into a


    creature''s grip is not an option. He grabbed his hair into fist and let out a scream that echoed through


    Lake Thao. Drops of tears ran down his cheek as he bite down his lips.


    ¡®There must be a way¡­There must be away¡­¡¯ he kept repeating in his mind. He sat there not noticing


    how time had flew by. Then, it clicked. He ran back to the brick house in wolf form, shifted in front of the


    pack, standing naked. Make passed him the hospital nket and he drew that around his hip.


    ¡°I have an idea but it might hurt her a bit. We take her blood and drop it to theke, baiting the Goya to


    come out and once it''s out, we attack¡± the pack straightened their back as they looked at Selena.


    Selena smiled, filled with proud as she nodded yes to the n.


    It was already 7pm when they arrived back to theke with Selena in Zaden''s hand. The pack stood


    naked by theke including Make, not bothering to look at each other''s body. They were focused on


    tackling Goya. Zaden took Selena to the wooden nk bridge and ced her gently on the edge. He


    walked away with hesitance as he won''t be able to slit her palms. They all looked at each other, hoping


    someone will do it on behalf of them, but none came forward. Selena smirked. She took the knife and


    slit her palm, yelping at the pain. She looked up at them and when they nodded, she shut tight her eye


    and extend her hand to the waters. She still don''t dare to look at a pack of werewolves and need to


    close her eye when they shift. The pack turned into their wolf form in a second and walked to the edge


    of bank, end of wooden nk. Selena is in front of them, their eye focused on the water. In search for


    any sign of movement. Drops of blood gathered at one end of her palm, gaining weight by second,


    finally dripping down, drawing a beautiful wavy pattern into the clearke water. A wave of energy


    rippled through the water. She pulled out her hand, into her chest, thrusting a piece of clean cloth in


    hope to stop the bleeding. The surrounding became silent, too silent. Not even a cricket chirped, no owl


    hoot, no frog croaked, not even the wind bellowed. The 4 wolves know that a storm is about to evoke


    beneath this silent, they stood there, not daring to breath heavy or even blink. Minutes felt decades.


    Oddly enough, Selena wasn''t afraid to sit further away from the pack. All of a sudden, a swoosh of


    water rose to about 10 feet height in front of Selena. The water cleared to reveal the dreadful creature,


    a 10 foot height above water, red eye with hands like attachment that is stout. It didn''t have a thick


    body thou, more of 60cm thickness. The smell it emit was vomitable. It stood in the middle ofke, in


    front of Selena, slithering it''s tongue but Zaden stopped the pack from attacking. With a gasp,Selena''s


    heart skipped a bit and a chilly numbness crept up her body, from feet to head. As Selenaid there


    with wide eye looking straight into the creature, she didn''t notice another one creeping from below the


    bridge, peeping its head up, less than a feet in front of her.


    ¡®Now¡¯


    Zaden order as a vicious growl erupted behind Selena. The wolfs jumped into the water with Make


    stood next to Selena, pushing her behind. She had recovered half way in her wolf form yesterday night


    but there was still another 50% to be healed. The snake has 2 head, each at the end of its body. One


    head peeping up from the bridge edge, earning a growl from Make, as she threw a heavy hit on it,


    scratching its skin with her w. The other pack members had swam up to the head standing in the


    middle ofke, biting on its body as forceful as possible. Goya let out an ear screeching scream as she


    swooshed her body across theke. In a second her whole body dropped down into theke in one


    straight line, as if theke just swallowed its length. Selena and Make waited eagerly for the pack to


    resurface but none did. Selena''s and Make''s heart beat kept rising with every passing second. A


    drop of tears made its way down Make''s burgundy fur. She blinked her eyes repeatedly before


    bowing her head. But just before the head touches the wood nk, a body of silver, jumped across her


    head, diving into the water. Make blinked profusely a few more times before she realized it was


    Selena. Her duty is to guard her. She jumped into the water. Deep down in the water, the silver wolf


    kicking its feet in synchronize, glimmered all the way to pack leaders who are currently entangled by


    therge white serpent, as it encircled them with her body. It froze once it sensed Selena in the water,


    snapped both its head to her direction, losing its grip on the pack leaders. It swooshed at lightning


    speed towards Selena and Make. Selena turned around and swam as fast as she could, past


    Make. The pack leader had to resurface for breath. Once they were stable, they dug back into the


    water and swam to Selena, pushing their feet as forceful as they could. Selena is naturally a superb


    and fast swimmer, even in her human form but in the mid of swim, she diverted her path to left, before


    resurfacing for a minute. When she dug in back, a white head with red eye was already too close,


    making an impact on her. She rolled her body slightly making the serpent slip, still manage to hit her


    body and went directly towards a huge rock, behind Selena, shing with it hard. A wave of vibration


    spread through theke after the impact. The white mass slowly dropped down to the bottom,


    motionless. With that Selena swam back up, barely able to stand on her feet, climbed up the banks.


    The pack followed her. She panted for her life, her wolf started coughing out blood as it copsed to the


    ground. The others rushed to her but stopped at their step when another low swoosh was heard. The


    serpent wasn''t dead, it resurfaced, climbing the opposite side of theke


    ¡®Zaden, follow it. I need to know it¡¯s hiding spot¡¯


    With that mind-link from Selena, Zaden and the boys went chasing after the serpent. None of them


    realized that they started moving at Selena''s order, not their alpha''s order. They thud through the forest


    floor as fast as the wind, when finally, the white body caught Zaden''s eye. Goya already climbing up


    seventh mountain at high speed, when she heard the thud of werewolf pack. She reached the trap pit


    which haven''t been covered yet, since they are waiting for cement load from city. Goya slithered into


    the pit and as if she possess magic, the metal cover twisted open and shut behind her. By the time the


    boys turn back to wolf, twist open the door, shift back and head outside, she was gone with no trace.


    The pack still dispersed to all direction, looking for any clue but it was as if she went invisible. Before


    going back, they searched the cave as well to no avail. Once they climbed out of the pit, they shifted


    back and speed up. Image of Selena coughing blood came shing in front of them. On the banks of


    Lake Thao, Selenaid unconsciously in her human form. Make have already dressed and she used


    Zaden''s hoodie to dress Selena. It stopped at her mid-thigh and she wore nothing under the hoodie, as


    all ripped during the unexpected shift. Zaden carried her as delicately as possible to the pack hospital.


    At the pack hospital, it took the whole night for the doctor to treat her. She went through a minor


    operation to fuse together her ribcage and her neck was badly injured as well. After the long wait,


    finally the doctor came out


    ¡°Well, Zaden. She had a few broken ribcage and a minorpression on her neck. We have done all


    necessary procedures and she is recovering well. She should be functional in 2 days a...¡± Zaden cut off


    the doctor


    ¡°Wait, what? 2 days to recover a broken rib? That''s wolf recovery range¡± Zaden frown heavy


    ¡°Yes, that''s what she is doing. Werewolf recovery. But do mind this 2 days, don''t shift. She might have


    to wear the cervical cor a bit longer, you know, precaution.¡± The doctor shrugged his shoulder. If


    Selena is recovering at werewolf speed, doesn''t that mean she is already in control of her wolf?


    After the doctor excused himself, Zaden and the pack went in to see her. She is unconscious, dressed


    in hospital gown with heavy bruising from her neck to her face. None of them had the guts to look at


    her for more than 10 minutes. This iplete wolf took the hit knowingly, to save the pack, when they


    had already mentally gave up. If it wasn''t for her, the vige would have suffered a major loss today.


    They all left except for Zaden in the room and Orion, sat at the bench out of her room. Zaden grabbed


    hold of her hand, close to his face. His lips rested on them as asionally uncontroble tears escape


    his eyes. He wiped them off, moved her nket down and raised her hospital gown gently, enough to


    expose her stomach. Her nket was covering below her hip. Her once clear skin, now has a huge


    scar and purple in color to her whole left side. His hand trembled as he touched her bruise. It might hurt


    as hell if not for the drugs that is infused into her through IV drips. He gently, as light as possible,id


    his cheeks on her stomach. She still had the same warmth, only her smell is different then before,


    mixed with disinfectant and the surgical glue. It doesn''t matter, he can get her smell back when she is


    back. Most importantly, he need to hear the heartbeat. The sound that can soothe him. He let out a sob


    ¡°I told you...don''te here, stay...but you are just too Selena...¡± he snuggled a bit


    ¡°What am I supposed to answer your dad...that I failed to protect his daughter?¡± he whispered to her


    stomach


    ¡°Tell him that she took it to save her boyfriend...¡± Zaden snapped his head up. Two ck eye with one


    blood shot, not so scary at this moment


    ¡°Hi matey...miss me?¡± she asked with a smile. Zaden moved up to her lips, kissing it ever so softly,


    avoid touching any other part of her.


    ¡°Were you taking advantage of me?¡± she pointed at her exposed stomach. Zaden let out a huffed


    chuckle before pulling down the hospital gown, as it was before.


    ¡°How are you feeling?¡± she smiled gently before nodding.


    ¡°You are not allowed to shift for 2 days, can you handle that?¡± Zaden asked


    ¡°Do I have a choice? Did you get Goya''s hide out?¡± she asked.


    ¡°We got its entry way. Take a wild guess¡± he is now sitting in his seat, her hand in his.


    N?velDrama.Org: owner of this content.


    ¡°The pit?¡± and he nodded.


    ¡°Anything that goes into the pit gets spelled and remained undiscovered by other werewolves, even


    when they roam the whole Mountain Manuka, just like you. You must have moved close enough to be


    spelled when you came across the camping zone.¡± He exined.


    ¡°How did she shift before midnight?¡± Zaden asked


    ¡°She prayed...to the moon goddess, give her the strength to shift. She managed to just touch me and


    that¡¯s all needed¡± she answered. A girl who doesn''t belief in god is now praying?


    They hold their position for the next hours, talking about everything and anything, stealing kisses and


    hugs in between. Little did they know, another pair of eyes had been observing them, Orion. His blood


    is boiling with what Zaden did. To him, he seduced her wolf, just as he guessed, with every night trip


    they have been going. He found a way to save her from the Goya but now, he has no idea how to get


    her from Zaden, just blunt rage. He paced around the corridor, waiting for Zaden toe


    out.

 CHAPTER 38

    CHAPTER 38


    2 days had passed by very slowly at the hospital. Selena''s ribcage has fused back. Her neck


    compression still needs a day or two to get fully cured. The blood clot on her eye has subsided


    completely and the bruises are fading away. She got discharged today. For thest 2 days, Orion had


    gone missing. The other pack leaders, especially Zaden, had helped her a lot, kept herpany.


    Zaden carried her home although she had repeatedly said that she is fine to walk, but he insist, actually


    the whole leader''s pack insists. At the entrance of the brick house, before they could step in, a voice


    stopped them. They turned around to see Orion zooming fast to them.


    ¡°I said, put her down!!!¡± he screamed and Zaden slowly, with cautious, let Selena stand on her feet, just


    in time for Orion to stand in front of them. He threw a punch to Zaden''s face


    ¡°You won, didn''t you. You seduced her wolf, didn''t you?¡± he threw another punch, hitting Zaden right in


    his face. He spat out a mouthful of blood. Orion grabbed his cor


    ¡°I love her, Zaden¡± his words echoed across the vicinity, effectively shutting down everyone who was


    yelling to stop them just now. Zaden looked at Orion''s eyes which is tearing up. He recalled thest


    time he saw him in tears, holding She''s dead body in his hands. He couldn''t hit him back, he wouldn''t


    hit him back.


    ¡°You¡­You ravaged everything. Did you fuck her too?¡± those words stirred anger in Zaden. He balled


    up his fist


    ¡°Stay away from her, you hear me. You are not allowed to touch her¡± now that statement is provoking


    his alpha wolf. He looked up, nose red and eyes swirling between gold and chocte


    ¡°Who are you to order me?¡± a whisper mixed with growl erupted from his chest. Make who sensed


    his wolf, quickly stride and pulled Selena''s face to her chest, not allowing her to see an alpha wolf at


    rage.


    Orion let go of Zaden''s shirt immediately. His face is now full of frustration. He can choose to obey or


    fight the man in front of him, and he stood there with chest up. Zaden threw a punch to Orion,


    mming him to the ground. He shifted into his wolf, a pitch ck wolf pacing step by step towards


    Orion


    ¡°Put your alpha aura away and stand up to me like a man¡± Orion said low, through gritted teeth and


    Zaden did so. Orion immediately shifted to his wolf. Now both wolf at attack stance. Orion attacked first,


    biting Zaden''s arm and Zaden smashed his retracted ws on Orion''s face. It was horrible to look at,


    even for another werewolf, especially a sister, Make. She was sure one of them is going to get


    killed. She trembled while another hand hid Selena''s face. She is holding tight to Make''s arms. The


    sound of growling and snapping frightened her, as she flinched into Make chest. All of a sudden, a


    weak hand held her arms, pulled her away from Make and pushed her to the ground. Grandpa Kai


    interfered. When she turned around, she saw 2 gigantic wolfs, snapping at each other, fangs out, ws


    out and they are above her. She had fallen right in middle of Zaden and Orion. She hid her face


    between her arms and pulled up her knees like a fetus.


    Fear got her immobilized as she kept mumbling to herself something uninterpretable. Un intentionally,


    she shifted to her wolf. A silver wolf, standing right in between ck and brown wolf. All the other


    werewolves at the surrounding goes wide eyed, including the she-wolfs and other patrol members out


    at the yard. The whole vige was rushing to them, sensing the alpha being challenged. Zaden and


    Orion stopped at their position, growling at each other. Zaden tried to attack Orion and Selena snapped


    at him. Orion tried to fight and she snapped again. Soon, both of them gave up and shifted back to their


    human form. The omega she-wolf rushed from inside the house with nkets and sweatpants. Zaden


    and Orion put on a pair of sweatpants. They refused to look at each other. Sensing the change in


    situation, the silver wolf turned around and walked into the house. Sheidfortably at the living


    room floor and shifted back to her human. Make rushed to her with a nket


    ¡°Come sweety...¡± She grabbed a chair and let Selena sit there. Behind Selena was a console table and


    further behind was couches. Selena sat down with a hiss, her body is aching from the sudden shifting.


    Something struck in Make when she observed the fragile state of Selena. She walked out fiercely


    and dragged both Zaden and Orion by their hand. She took them to the couches and pushed them to


    sit.


    ¡°You two had gone too far. You know she is still recovering. Why can''t you take your rage somewhere


    else?¡± Make crossed her arm across her chest while Selena sat facing the opposite, away from


    them


    ¡°Do you love her?¡± she pointed at Zaden and Zaden nodded with hesitation. She sighed out,


    somewhere deep inside her, she wants her brother to find love again


    ¡°And obviously, Orion loves her. You two could have torn each other apart when you don''t know who


    Selena actually loves. Does that make any sense? Do you guys ever use your brain?¡± Make


    frowned, effectively silencing both of them in guilt. She turned around and walked to Selena, bending


    down slightly and held her shoulders. With a calmposed tone, she asked her a question


    ¡°Sweety, do you love any one from our pack? Anyone at all?¡± she waited with anticipation. Selena


    searched herself as her eye flickered around the ground. Only one face popped up in her head. Selena


    nodded yes.


    ¡°Is he here?¡± she nodded again


    ¡°Is it Zaden or Orion?¡± Make¡¯s eye focused on her lips and the boys had sharpened their wolf


    hearing. Their heartbeat is pounding in their ears. After a pause, she said almost inaudible


    ¡°Zaden...¡± Zaden who is bend forward with his elbow on his knees, dropped his head down with a huff


    of relief. His happiness could not be exined with words. He bit his lower lips and smiled, eyes on the


    floor as flocks of butterfly invaded his inner system. He turned to look at Orion, not arrogant but with a


    wave of sympathy to him. Orion stood up and rushed out of the house. Make followed behind him.


    Zaden stood up and slowly walked to Selena and leaned his elbow on the console behind her.


    Goosebumps lined Selena''s spine as she sensed his presence behind her.


    ¡°Did you say Zaden?¡± he whispered to her back. A sudden clench felt at her mid chest. She nodded.


    He cleared his throat.


    ¡°Why?¡± Selena frowned to Zaden¡¯s question. She turned around facing him


    ¡°I mean, why you love me?¡± Zaden whispered still


    ¡°What sort of question is that? You want mey down reasons to love you?¡± he nodded before


    continuing


    ¡°Is it because of my face...or body...¡± he held her hand gently, rubbing across her knuckles with his


    thumb.


    ¡°Or my kiss...or because I am an alpha...¡± Selena''s eye widened with her mouth and stayed frozen for a


    moment


    ¡°You know what, forget I said that. MAKEALA!!!¡± she screamed ''Make'' as she turned around and


    walked. Zaden stifled hisughter before running after her, grabed her arms to turn her around


    ¡°What are you doing?¡± Zaden asked through hisughter


    ¡°I''m switching. MAKEALA!!!!¡± she yelled again, peeping her head out to the door with a serious


    expression


    ¡°No wait...¡± Zaden stillughing


    ¡°No, you wait for another 50 years before your matees and then you can show off your alpha


    status to her and...¡± Zaden pulled her and smashed his lips to hers. He unmasked his scent,


    tranquilizing Selena, seizing her at once. Her knee felt weak and a slight dizziness strired through her.


    They both are visible from the brick house entrance.


    ¡°You are my mate...why should I wait another 50 years?¡± he whispered as he gave another kiss to her,


    slowly sucking her lips, paying great attention not to hurt her neck. His words felt like hallucination to


    her, as she blinked in disbelief a few times. A need for his lips maized her towards him.


    ¡°You smell...wonderful...¡° Selena said as she pulled his lips apart with her finger.


    ¡°Why didn''t you tell me before?¡± she whispered before swallowing her saliva. His smell and touch are


    stirring unwanted feelings in her right now.


    ¡°Well...first I found you at the mountain foot and came to, basically im you. You had a...moment of


    weakness, lets say...and the smell of your arousal drove me crazy. I was afraid I''m going to pounce and


    possibly rape you, so I ran away...¡± he is caressing her cheeks


    ¡°Then I saw you at waterfall, almost close to taking over my pack of wolfs and I got pissed off...then


    again at the vige, where you called us primitive. I thought you would never want to be with me in this


    ¡®primitive vige'', so I never told you. Then of course the Samrat issue and so on...¡± she nodded and he


    nodded in return


    ¡°Orion...¡± she almost swallowed the word


    ¡°I will talk to him...don''t worry" he ran his finger through her hairline.


    ¡°So now what?¡± Selena asked, eyes at his lips, wanting a little bit more.


    ¡°We wait...for 15days to be over, all though it looks like you won''t need 15 days, you are already calling


    your wolf out, just haven''t contact her. Then, if you like...we can mark each other and solidify the


    bond...and...you know after that...¡± he whispered as he licked his lips and have her embraced to him.


    ¡°You can''t mark me now?¡± she asked in the most innocent way with a frown. Zaden turned her around,


    hugged her from behind and ced his chin on her shoulder


    ¡°I''m afraid you can''t heal as quickly as it requires to seal the mark wound. Might be detrimental for a


    human. I need a little wolf for that, not a baby girl...and just in case you are wondering...¡± he licked her


    neck at one particr spot, sending zaps of electricity through her body as she closed her eye with a


    gasp.


    ¡°That is where I will mark you...¡± he said whispering close to her ears. His warm breath hitting her ears


    like a wave of eroticism. She is consumed by lust. She removed his hands from her stomach and


    turned around


    ¡°I''m going to clean up...bye¡± she said before walking upstairs in rush. She took only a few steps before


    she heard Zaden


    ¡°Selena...I''m a wolf...I can smell you...¡± he had a smirk on his lips. Selena slowly turned around. An


    omega she-wolf came running to them, bowing in front of him


    ¡°Please take all of Ms.Selena''s item and arrange them in my room before she finish bathing¡± she


    blinked awkwardly before nodded and went rushing upstairs.


    ¡°You want me to move?¡± Selena asked and he nodded as he started walking slowly towards her


    ¡°There is no need to rush. I... I...I don''t mind staying in that room¡± Selena said and Zaden walked out of


    the house.


    ¡°But I do mind, baby girl...¡± his voice echoed from outside.


    Zaden tracked through the forest, following his alpha''s sense to track a member of pack. Finally, he


    saw Make and Orion, on top of a huge rock. Make moved away once she saw Zaden and Zaden


    sat in her ce. They are back to each other and remained silence for a long time. Make walked


    away from them, giving them some space


    ¡°I''m sorry you have to go through this, again...¡± Zaden broke the silence


    N?velDrama.Org: owner of this content.


    ¡°What can you do when she doesn''t love me?¡± Orion threw a stone into the trees, not far from them.


    ¡°She is my mate, Orion...¡± Orion''s head snapped to Zaden in shock


    ¡°She is your luna...I wasn''t sure she would want me, so I never told anyone. If only I had told at least


    you, you wouldn''t have fallen for her¡± he said low. A drop of tear rolled down Orion''s cheek. His heart


    felt weak, his whole body burning with agony. He finally gave up, there is no way he could have win


    her, she was never his.


    ¡°I need some time Zaden...¡± Orion said low. Zaden gripped his thighs before walking away. He will be


    fine, he always has been fine.

 CHAPTER 39

    CHAPTER 39


    Selena had just done taking a bath. Her hair and body felt sticky after 2 days being hospitalized, so she


    put extra effort to scrub herself clean. She tied a towel over her chest and rubbed her hair between


    another small towel in her hands as she walked out of the bathroom. Not even a step out of the


    bathroom, she bumped into a hard chest, making her fluster in attempt to grab something. A pair of


    hands grabbed her upper arm and pulled her forward, preventing her from falling back. She looked up


    with a wide eye. Who else can the culprit be, its Zaden. She gulped her saliva at his lusty eye and the


    gesture of biting his lower lips. His scent seemed to have heightened noticeably. She closed her eye


    slowly as she rolled her neck, not much different from her wolf. After being with her wolf so many times,


    Zaden can read when she is lusting. He leaned down and ced a kiss, soft and supple, on her lips


    without any announcement or approval. Both her eyebrow cocked up in surprise while her eyelid


    remained closed. When he let go, she exhaled her breath that she was holding before slowly opening


    her eyes. It feels right. It feels amazing. Her delicate muscles clenches involuntarily as the sparks


    between them immobilized the rest of her. But Selena being Selena, her fear of losing virginity raised


    an rm


    ¡°I think we should...¡± Zaden cut her off with another kiss. He let go before running his finger through her


    hairline


    ¡°Zaden its...¡± he gave another kiss, this time slight more aggressive than before, as he inhales via his


    nose.


    ¡°Wait...¡± her voice came out almost inaudible with a tremble but he knows what he need to do to make


    her submit. Another kiss follows. Her breath became shaky as she refused to open her eyes, grabbed


    his bare shoulders, trying to obtain a little stability. A smile came to his lips.


    ¡°Are you scared?¡± she nodded, eyes still closed but head tilted down a bit. He smiled even wider and


    took a few steps forward, forcing her to step back. They stopped at a wall. Zaden cupped her face, as


    streams of hot breath exhaled through his lips hit her forehead, indicating how close they are right now.


    ¡°Don''t be...I won''t do anything, and I mean anything, that you don''t like...¡± she opened her eyes,


    agitated because she know she wants him too. Zaden kissed her a bit more intensely, sucking her


    plum, full lower lips and licked it with his tongue as her breathing picked up pace.


    ¡°Zaden please...¡± she begged, not sure to stop or to start


    ¡°Just say stop...that''s all you need to do. A word¡± he kept licking her lips and sucked her tongue. He


    slowly went lower and lower and even lower to her corbone, shutting her downpletely. No more


    protesting. He carried her to the single bed, sat her on the edge and went down on his knees. He slide


    his hand between her thighs before lowering himself down. Curtained by her white towel, a sudden


    warmth spread between her thighs as Zaden''s hot breath and skin grazed her delicate skin, warmer


    than normal human being. She is blind-sided, not knowing what hit her, something soft, slippery and


    warm. When she realized that it is his tongue, a conflict with in herself erupt. It is suppose to be


    disgusting and dirty, having a tongue in the most private part but then it feels way too good to stop him.


    His tongue concurred her sensitive spot, making her writhe and squirm in pleasure. She plopped back


    to the bed


    ¡°Zaden...¡± she wanted to stop him right when he changed his tactics, kneeling in front of her, looking


    straight into her enchanting eye, inserting his finger into her. She shot up to sitting position and her


    towel came loose. Her smooth, perfectly curves body, reflecting the sun that is settling down now.


    Zaden clenched his jaw at the view. He ispletely engulfed by lust, a rumble erupted from his chest


    as he watched Selena reacting to his touch. Her moan and scream soon became as addictive as a


    drug can be, waves of ecstasy hit him. He wanted a little more, and little more, just a bit more. His


    breathing spiked more and more as he threw his head back, letting himself free to enjoy every bit of her


    moan and warmth. Her wolf was much better at controlling her moan but Selena let everything out. Her


    body began trembling as a squirt of juice spilled on Zaden''s hands. He pulled his hands out and took it


    closer to his mouth when Selena hurriedly caught his hand.


    ¡°No...dirty...¡± she whispered between her shaky breath. He pulled his hand, making her jerk forward,


    closer to his face so that she could see clearly how he is enjoying the dirty stuff. She bit her lips hard at


    the view of him licking her juice from his fingers. He then leaned a bit to kiss her.


    ¡°Ready for the next level?¡± he asked when he was satisfied with his kiss. She doesn''t know what is


    that, the next level he was referring to, but she nodded and he moved closer to her, lowered his


    sweatpants and rubbed his erect manhood to her knub. She hissed and moaned. Gently, he entered


    her as she gasped sharp and followed by a loud moan. He thrust her, slow at first but took a wild turn


    within minutes. The pleasure made Selena''s brain numb as she gave in, dropping her head on Zaden''s


    shoulder. The little angel has taken refuge on his shoulder. The relief and pleasure he felt, not from sex


    but from the love she poured out was beyondparison. Anything he does is allowed. He thrust his


    hand to the nape of her neck and hoisted her up, facing him as his hip kept moving back and forth


    slowly. A drop of tear ran down her cheeks, happy tears that is. He kissed her cheek, not allowing the


    tears to drop to ground. He kissed her lips, as his hands moved up to her hair and his shoulders


    shrugged, careful not to be rough, more to cherishing her. He pulled her to kneel on the ground, turned


    her around and pushed her back against the bed, entering her from back position. She let out a scream


    ¡°Zaden!!!!¡± she screamed. Another st of juice came wetting his thighs.


    ¡°Just tell me to stop...please...make me stop¡± he said through his panting breath, as if begging for


    someone to control him. He don''t think he can stop even if she says so. He continued, pping his skin


    against hers as she bounced forth and back on her bed, grabbing the sheets into a fist. She felt another


    swirl at the bottom of her abdomen


    ¡°Please!!!¡± she screamed pleading him


    ¡°The word is STOP, baby girl¡± he grabbed her waist from back, snaking his arm around her stomach


    and banged even faster as she came bursting for the third time, together with him. Zaden slumped his


    body on top of Selena''s back and remain frozen for a few more minutes, before retrieving himself from


    her. He helped her toy on the bed, beforeid next to her, still breathing deep. He pulled her loose


    body to his embrace, snuggling to his chest. His usual warm body was cold, as a thickyer of sweat


    covered him.


    ¡°You are...that was...oh my god...¡± he whispered and she let out a giggle. They stayed so for a while.


    ¡°That didn''t hurt at all...I was told that it would hurt and bleed for the first time¡± she whispered, although


    the whole house or even the vige might have heard them a few minutes ago.


    ¡°You were not a virgin, baby girl...¡± he said and Selena looked up at him


    ¡°Were not?¡± she cocked her eyebrow. He ran a finger on her hairline


    ¡°Your wolf and I had a little fun, a dirty type of fun...¡± he said and she stiffened


    ¡°What?¡± she raised her eyebrows in disbelief. He nodded with a smile. She hit his chest hard


    ¡°I can''t believe this. You two used my body? Behind my back?¡± she is now propped up on her elbow,


    fully energized.


    ¡°Your wolf is a naughty girl and she knew I was her mate from day one. You can''t control the mating


    instinct of a wolf, Selena¡± he said gently, kissing her cheek


    ¡°Out!!!Out!!!¡± she pushed and when he didn''t budge, she punched his chest. Zaden caught her wrist,


    pinned her to the bed before devouring her beauty, one more time. She is helpless in his touch, melting


    like a dew drop under sunshine, maybe she has been spell bound.


    That night, they walked to Lake Khalifa, with Selena leading the way, stomping her feet with a grumpy


    face and mumbling curses under her breath. She is still angry with Zaden. They sat far apart at the


    banks as they waited for midnight, when her wolf came out. Sexy, calm and confident as she always


    has been. She leaned back, propping herself with her elbow, her head slightly tilted up to face Zaden


    ¡°So...was she better than me?¡± she asked


    ¡°Oh stop it. You two are driving me crazy. She is mad because I had sex with you and you are jealous


    with her. Both of you are mine, both of us is yours. What am I? ¡°Zaden eximed frustrated. She


    turned around, crawled to him before dipping her head down to kiss his crotch, over his sweatpants.


    Her butt formed a heart shape right in front of Zaden, instantly turning him on. She looked up with a


    slutty eye and her devilish smirk


    ¡°Our sex toy¡± she straightened up, pushing him back. It''s her turn now. Obviously, she is much more


    opened to sex then her other part is. After that, they shifted to wolves, ran around theke, not


    forgetting to satisfy their wolfs as well. They returned home at dawn, as usual. Zaden waspletely


    exhausted, coping with both of them. He has to keep on this for another 5 day, 5 more day and it''s over.


    Zaden woke up the next morning. He had one of the deepest sleep after repeated sex, the day before.


    The bed was empty next to him, Selena was not there. He looked around and there is no sign of her in


    the room. He got up, took a shower and went looking for her, as he can sense her in themunal


    room.


    ¡° Ohe on, sweety...you 2 just got together. What could he have done to upset you? Besides, you


    can control his mind and make him do whatever you want, isn''t it?¡± Zaden heard Make''s voice from


    the doors ofmunal room itself. He slowly walked into the room with both his hands in his pocket,


    immediately masking his scent. He needed to know the answer to Make question. Selena stood with


    her back to Zaden, wearing a cheekyce white dress. Make stiffened when she saw Zaden but


    didn''t give him out. Selena was busy, scooping ice cream from the tub, over the bar counter, she had to


    tip toe every time she scooped the ice cream.


    ¡°Control his mind??? That rascal doesn''t let me think or concentrate...or breath. You have to think,


    concentrate and breath to be able to control someone¡± she said with a hint of frustration. Zaden pulled


    her by her arm, she collided with him. Without no prior warning, he smashed his lips to hers, being as


    rough as a wolf can be. He bite and sucked her lips before entering her oral cavity to devour her alive.


    One of his hand was snaked around her waist and another pushing her head by her neck to stay glued


    to him. He pushed her backwards till the nearest wall, so that he can have one free hand to roam


    around. Selena, protested with her might, to free herself to no avail, like a fly in glue trap. Soon, within


    seconds that is, she melted like putty in his embrace.


    ¡°I guess the tracking can wait?¡± Make said from behind when Selena picked up a book from nearby


    table and threw at her. She rushed out.


    ¡°Themunal room is temporarily inessible¡± Make shouted before closing the door behind her.


    After a few more minutes, Zaden let go of her lips. He managed to break the skin on her lips.


    ¡°Rascal huh...how long you going to stay mad at this rascal?¡± he bend down and took a bite of skin on


    her neck, sucking it hard, leaving Selena yelping as she squeezed shut her eye. A sharp pain erupted


    and Zaden released his scent, calming her down immediately. He detached his wet lips from Selena¡¯s


    neck before revisiting the spot. Satisfied with his work, he let go of her


    ¡°There, something to remind you to never stay mad at a rascal¡± he said as Selena rubbed her neck,


    right below her jawline.


    After the momentary punishment, Zaden held Selena''s hand and led her to the front door. Every omega


    she-wolf that crossed her let out a giggle with palms over their mouth, embarrassing Selena even more


    At the door, they saw Orion walking towards them. He stopped in front of Selena


    ¡°Hi there my dear Luna...¡± he said with a faint smile but his eyes exuded pain. Selena snapped her


    head at Zaden before asking aloud


    ¡°What''s a Luna? Oh no, don''t tell me that''s another bloodline I have inherited¡± Zaden and Orion


    laughed at her


    Content provided by N?velDrama.Org.


    ¡°Luna is the mate of an alpha. She is responsible for the children anddies in the pack, sort of a


    mother¡± Zaden exined


    ¡°And the pack will go to any extend to keep their luna safe, sort of like a queen in chess. You catch the


    queen, you end the game¡± Orion added


    ¡°And now, you are our future queen¡± Make echoed from behind them as she walked in with Sitka.


    ¡°You just have to be marked by alpha to make it official¡± Sitka added. Selena stood in the middle,


    confused, darting her eye from one to another, like a lost child.

 CHAPTER 40

    CHAPTER 40


    Selena and Zaden went tracking to their territory borders, learning which is under them and which is


    not. They ended up at top of a mountain which seems to be the highest among all other, with ragged


    cliffs and heavy wind. Although it sounds serious, the two of them were holding hands and kept talking


    silly matters, bumping shoulders and stealing kiss which made it more like a romantic getaway. Zaden


    has turned out to be very protective over Selena, each step is watched and propped, touching each


    other way more often than is necessary, as he couldn''t keep his hands off her. They settled down at


    grassy cliff, knees bent and Selena resting on his shoulders. Sunshine beaming with gentle heat on


    them. A cluster of lined up mountains, green as it can get and birds flying over the cliff, calming anyone


    that is blessed enough to see it.


    ¡°You see there?¡± Zaden pointed out at an array of smaller mountains and Selena nodded.


    ¡°Beyond those mountains are the elderlies vige, where Xavier is now¡± he said


    ¡°Why it takes so long to get through ande back?¡± Selena asked


    ¡°It''s a protocol that we have developed over the past years. Our elderlies predicted that the properchy


    implies to us, and that one day, we would be at war with Samrat Kingdom. At that time, we don''t want


    important or crucial assets of the pack to be conquered that easily. You can call them as the core of our


    pack. There is at least 5 times more warriors in that vigepared to the first and second vige.


    They have their own farm and supplies. The vige is surrounded by 15 feet high brick wall with electric


    barb wire around them. The outside of the wall has silver arrows all over them. Werewolves can only


    be wounded by silver. Even the mountain arrays are surrounded by a very deep river. It is said that


    there any many dangerous animals lurking in the waters, like river shark, anaconda and so on. So, to


    cross over, we have to use a motorboat and it will only cross over under the alpha, me and previous


    alpha, my father''smand. It will take 3mands in a certain interval. If I miss the interval,


    meaning I am in danger. So they will get ready to fight and no motor boats will cross over.¡± Selena


    listened quite with a light frown.


    ¡°What are you thinking about?¡± Zaden asked as he raised her hand in his hand for a kiss


    ¡°How did you manage to do all this under tight entry protocol?¡± she asked


    ¡°Don''t ask, its strenuous work, takes a long time.¡± Zaden sighed out. After a pause, Selena said again


    ¡°If I am a werewolf...¡± Zaden let out a frustrated growl and slumped his back to the ground, and covered


    his face with his palm. Selena respond to gravity and fell on his stomach


    ¡°What?¡± she asked in panic, looking up from Zaden''s stomach


    ¡°You are still doubting whether you are a werewolf or not?¡±


    ¡°Oh that, sorry¡± Selena climbed up and ced a kiss on his neck. She pulled out her amulet from her


    cleavage.


    ¡°This is silver, isn''t it? Howe it doesn''t hurt me?¡± Selena asked with a serious expression


    ¡°Because that is not a silver, it''s made out of tinum. Grandpa Kai gave as a present to me, on the


    day I took over my dad, sort of weing gift to the new alpha¡± Zaden said casually, fiddling with the


    locket in Selena''s hand.


    ¡°Wait, this is yours?¡± Zaden eye widened. He mixed up the information between Selena and her wolf.


    ¡°Hmmm... Yes...maybe we should go home now¡± he tried to stand up.


    ¡°NO!!!¡± Selena eximed as she scrambled to sit up and straddled on his abdomen, making Zaden


    chuckle but Selena wore a serious expression.


    ¡°This is yours? Howe you never told me this?¡± she asked. Zaden pinched her lips together with his


    index and thumb.


    ¡°Because I knew you wouldn''t wear it and I can''t invade your dreams...¡± he let go and she hissed in


    pain


    ¡°So you were my dream crush? You were the rapist?¡± she asked and Zaden propped himself up with


    elbow, ring at her.


    ¡°Now, no harsh words, baby girl. You turned me on badly that day, I got messed up. I''m sorry for that...¡±


    he said as he ced a peck on her lips.


    She sat on him, ring sharp and her seized breath formed a deeper notch in her throat. Her wavy hair


    withrge curly locks swept to one side and a few free strand on the other side of her shoulder. Her


    fanningshes softening her anger, not forgetting her eye color and its depth, to be desired. Her rosy


    round lips inviting anyone for a taste and a body that fits perfectly to his embrace. Zaden gently


    caressed her cheeks.


    ¡°You turn me on, every minute since I haveid my eyes on you. You make me week, you made me


    beg, you made me kneel...¡± he whispered, followed by a chuckle. Selena bit her lips with a frown.


    ¡°You even made me cry...¡± he pulled her by the nape of her neck, bringer her close to him, touching her


    forehead with his.


    ¡°Those 3 weeks without you was like living hell for me...I couldn''t eat, couldn''t sleep...and the pain in


    my heart, unbearable. I hated to see anyone when I missed your sweet face sooo much... What took


    you so long toe to me?...¡± Selena gulped


    ¡°Its not just the sex...it''s everything about you...you push me into a raging me, while you stand in


    front of me,ughing and pping your hands at my suffering, yet it didn''t hurt because it makes you


    laugh...You are the remedy to my pain, and if so, I don''t want to get myself out of this me...you


    enved me and...hmm...I don''t know how to exin...hmm...¡± he struggled with his words, as his eyes


    trailed off. Selena cupped his face with both her hands, straightening them to face her


    ¡°I love you too...¡± She then tilted her head to side and kissed his lips, making him gasp as he shut tight


    his eyes. Every muscle in his body clenched, a sudden dizziness hit him, yet he felt free, atst. It was


    the most meaningful and deepest kiss they ever had, no lust or urge, softness of feather that sends


    tingles down your stomach. She bit her lips as she withdrew and Zaden remained tranquilized for a


    moment before he opened his eyes and saw the smile on her face. He threw his head back and let out


    a chuckle before facing her again


    ¡°Exactly, that''s the word I was looking for. I love you...¡±


    T¨ºxt ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Theyid there, with Selena on top of Zaden, swinging her legs while Zaden constantly fiddle around


    her body. The rest of the afternoon flew by with them talking, making each otherugh. At some point,


    Zaden touched her moon mark with his fingers, sending a jolt through her


    ¡°Do you know what Selena means?¡± he whispered and she shook her head no.


    ¡°Moon goddess...and ironically, you don''t belief in her. Oh ya...I heard from a little birdy that you prayed


    to moon goddess when we were wrapped around by Goya. Is that so?¡± he asked, teasing her


    ¡°I might have...¡± she said with a cocked eyebrow


    ¡°By the way, don''t tell the pack that you enved me, alright?¡± he said politely to her and she rolled her


    eye


    ¡°I just remembered, I have something to do at home.¡± She quickly climbed down and walked away


    ¡°Selena...don''t you even think about it¡± Zaden ran behind her, theypromised soon.


    Selena entered the brick house skipping on her feet while Zaden strode behind herzily. Selena


    immediately looked up when she heard a baby''s cry from upstairs. Zaden ced his hands on her


    shoulder as they both wondered what is going on upstairs. The cry came frommunal room. Sitka


    and Orion were trying to calm down baby Dahlia, Make''s daughter. As soon as Orion saw Selena,


    he walked over and handed the baby to her.


    ¡°Here, you are a luna right? You should be able to calm down babies naturally¡± he cracked knuckles on


    his neck and rolled his arms as soon as Selena grabbed hold of the Dahlia. She was wailing at the top


    of her voice box. Selena looked behind her with a pleading eye, hoping Zaden could help her. To her


    disappointment, he shrugged his shoulder, also not knowing what to do. Selena sighed as she tried to


    rock the child side to side, saying soothing words and walking around themunal room.


    ¡°Oh sweety...where is your mommy..huh¡± she shook a rattle in front of her face


    ¡°Why would she trust you with a bunch of wolves?...hush baby hush...¡± she rocked her some more.


    Dahlia seemed to have toned down abit.


    ¡°Yes...good girl...¡± Selena said with a deep voice. Zaden, Orion and Sitka had just crashed on couches,


    observing what Selena would do


    ¡°There...you are just a harmless teeeeny tiny baby in the hand of a cave man, isn''t it? He probably


    stinks, that''s why you cried didn''t you?...¡± her sarcasm came out soothingly


    ¡°HEY!!!¡± Orion eximed


    ¡°Shu...shu... that''s it...¡± the babyid her cheeks on her chest. At this point, Selena had already walked


    to the end of the room, facing the bar counter.


    ¡°You are my sunshine...my only sunshine,


    You make me happy when skies are grey


    You never know, dear, how much I love you


    Please don''t take my sunshine away...¡± Selena sang each word much more slower than it should be


    with a deep and husky than her usual voice. Dahlia had fallen sleep on her chest. When she ran out of


    words, she hummed the whole song from top just to make sure she is deep in sleep. By the time she


    finished, a gentle tap on her shoulders and she looked up to see Make


    ¡°I made her sleep...¡± Selena said with high raised eyebrow and almost inaudible voice. Make held


    both her shoulders and turned her around. Selena''s eye widened. Zaden, Sitka and Orion had fallen


    asleep in the most awkward position one could have slept.


    ¡°No more luby in public, ok sweety...¡± Make said nicely as they walked out of there, with Make''s


    hands on Selena''s shoulder still, leaving the big babies to enjoy their nap time.

 CHAPTER 41

    CHAPTER 41


    Dinner served as usual, in buffet style. Selena is now a friendly pack member and the buffet dinner has


    been the main contributor to it. She haven''t been announced as Luna of Mountain Manuka yet, only the


    leader''s pack knows about it, yet the pack has developed a deep connection with her. Their natural


    protective instinct towards their Luna have impressed Zaden many times.


    Selena and Make had gone down to dinner first. Zaden, Orion and Sitka came a bitte due to their


    nap time. Zaden entered the yard and the first thing that his eyes searched for was Selena. He spotted


    her at the usual rocky corner, next to bonfire. The sparks from bonfire resembled star and her smile like


    the moonshine, creating a coherent scene of full moon night sky, even though the eclipse is


    approaching fast. A smile bloomed unconsciously on his lips, something that only she can do to him.


    The 3 musketeers went over to the buffet table and started picking up their food, cing them on their


    own tes. At the end of the buffet, where desserts had been arranged nicely, Zaden spotted cups of


    chocte ice-cream. Selena would have surely taken one but why not have 2 for dinner. He reached


    for it but before that, his eyended on the next dessert, a pineapple upside down cake. His smile


    dropped and a frown reced it. Selena loves ice-cream. Could that mean she likes cakes too? It is


    ced right next to ice-cream, so she probably would have taken a slice anyway. Zaden ced his


    te on the table in a hurry and ran to Selena. Just as expected, she did take a slice of the cake but


    she haven''t touched it. Zaden stood opposite to her, rubbing his lips in tension. Selena frowned at him


    ¡°What is wrong with you?¡± Make asked. Sitka and Orion also had reached them now, not in panic


    like Zaden thou.


    ¡°Hmm...can you...pls not eat that?¡± he pointed at the te


    ¡°My dinner?¡± Selena puzzled


    ¡°No...the cake¡± he pointed again


    ¡°Why not? If you want, there is plenty over there¡± Selena pointed sarcastically. She purposefully cut a


    piece of the cake and put it in her mouth before Zaden could react. He kneeled down in front of her in a


    reflex and smashed his mouth to hers, entering her mouth and taking in all the cake, as much as


    possible, not forgetting to suck her lips clean as well. The cake tastes extra sweet that he might have


    sucked more than necessary. Most of the viger saw this and had started gossiping, mumbling their


    prediction. He finally let go when he was sure there is nothing left. Selena red at him in dismay.


    ¡°You shouldn''t eat pineapples¡± Zaden said, earning a gasp from Make as she covered her mouth


    with her palms. She seemed to understood something.


    ¡°Why not? Is she allergic or something?¡± Orion asked in concern and Zaden rolled his eye coldly. He


    looked straight into Selena''s eye


    ¡°I...have hidden something from you¡± he started confessing


    ¡°Oh god, no Zaden. You secrets scare the fuck out of me¡± she stood up


    ¡°Exactly why I didn''t tell you. One, I wasn''t 100% sure of it myself. Two, I don''t want to scare you off.


    The thing is...you and I...we...¡± his confession was cut off by a burst of mind-links. Even Selena heard


    it, so it must have been directed to the whole pack. It was filled with terror and chaos, from at least 15


    wolves. After trying hard, they finally was able to pull out one word, Ozrain Samrat. Zaden inhaled


    sharp but forgot to exhale. His mind is in a rampage. Same goes to the rest of them, they stood frozen


    with wide eye, calcting their next step. The vigers had started scattering away from there, heading


    to shelter. Once serene surrounding has now turned into chaos. Zaden turned around, grabbed


    Selena''s wrist and dragged her into the house. All the other 3 followed. Atmunal room, they were


    terrified.


    ¡°Did I hear it right?¡± Make almost teared up


    ¡°It can''t be¡± Sitka said. Selena is standing between Orion and Zaden, both have her covered. One of


    her hands were fisting Orions sleeve and another wrapped around Zaden''s waist. She blinked a few


    times, exhaling and inhaling to calm herself down. If this is how it should be, then be it but she wouldn''t


    allow innocent vigers get hurt.


    ¡°Zaden, time for you to act as alpha. Get the viger to safety, what is you protocol in this situation?¡±


    Zaden felt like he was shook awake. He swallowed his saliva.


    ¡®Alldies and kids are to retrieve to school cave immediately, I repeat NOW. All warriors, get yourself


    ready.¡¯


    Content provided by N?velDrama.Org.


    ¡®Dad, we are under attack by Ozrain Samrat, take stand¡¯


    Zaden exerted a series of mind-links, sending outmands. The next minute, they heard a loud bang


    from downstairs. Selena breath started shaking, heavily. Thest time she was this terrified was


    probably during her mother, Daisy''s death. She turned to Zaden and gave him a kiss


    ¡°Zaden, I don''t want to go. I don''t want to be a Samrat¡± she fisted Zaden''s shirt and tears started


    flowing out


    ¡°Listen, no one is taking you away, ok?¡± Zaden eye widened and his breath was irregr. He held her


    face and ced a few kisses on her cheeks and forehead. Right at that second, themunal room


    door banged open. A sweaty, panting Xavier stood in front of them


    ¡°Ozrain is here for her!!!¡± he shouted and ran to Zaden. Zaden pushed Selena behind his body, hiding


    herpletely. Orion, Make, Sitka and Xavier stood by his side, forming a personal fort for Selena.


    Selena held Zaden''s shirt at the back in a fist, trembling and sweating terribly. At that moment, her


    whole life shed in front of her eye, her friends, her father and brother, her university and the Wilf Life


    Research center, her first kiss with Zaden, her first sex with the man she love and finally the day she


    stepped foot on Mountain Manuka in the name of hiking expedition. She closed tight her eyelid as a


    drop of tear rolled down. A cluster of footsteps approached themunal room. Zaden was infuriating,


    he was ready to kill, to rip apart anyone in front of them. His anger radiated to the whole leader''s pack


    as they also took an attack stance. But, they were disabled when the first personing through that


    door was his own father, Draven ck. A series of familiar faces followed him, Draven''s own leader''s


    pack, special cement for elderly vige. As they stepped aside, a tall, well built figure, in a blue jeans


    and a khaki long sleeve cotton thin button up shirt. His sleeves were fold up to his elbow curves and he


    was wearing a bulky watch. Light grey eyes with ck rim that reminds of a certain someone hiding


    behind Zaden, only difference is that, his eye is deadly sharp and calm while Selena''s is soft and


    innocent. A moon mark under his ears. White beard, moustache and hair, gives out a hint of his age but


    the body built contradicts. Strong presence he brought to the room leaves no space for doubts. He is


    Ozrain Samrat. Another 2 sidekicks followed behind him as they stood a few meters away from Zaden.


    Ozrain sighed out as he thrusted his hands into his pocket


    ¡°Where is she?¡± a low, gravelly voice came from him. Zaden stared coldly at him with no answer.


    Ozrain huffed out a smirk.


    ¡°Alpha Zaden, I''m here for the, so called, my bloodline when I know she is dead a few years ago. So,


    please, move. Let''s not waste time¡± the utter dominance in his tone, almost made Zaden step aside


    ¡°She is not going anywhere¡± Zaden spat out those words


    ¡°Oh I''m not taking her away, not at all. I just need to see her,digest the rumours, that''s all¡± Ozrain was


    in fact speaking with full honesty


    ¡°Son, don''t be silly. You are risking the whole pack for a girl. Move!!!¡± Draven said, clearly disappointed


    with his son


    ¡°She is not just a girl, she is my mate¡± Zaden still with the same fury. Draven and his pack stiffened.


    They have just framed their own Luna and at risk.of loosing her. Still,they are battling between whose


    side to take. The whole room remained silent for a minute. A row of little soft fingers grabbed Zaden''s


    arm from behind. Ozrain''s eye focused on it as he started softening. Those fingers recall him of a


    certain someone. A pair of terrified light grey eye, slowly peeped from behind the bulging arm. Those


    silver striped ck hair, familiar to his daughter. Ozrain''s eye widened as his whole body loosened. The


    pair of grey eye is now looking up at her mate. Zaden looked over his shoulder but didn''t react or give


    any signals.


    ¡°It can''t be...¡± Ozrain said, earning Selena''s attention again. She slipped back into her hiding spot.


    Ozrain bend down slightly, holding his knees by his hands.


    ¡°Come on...I don''t eat little girls...¡± a sh of image came to his mind. He used to say the same words


    to his daughter and she would jump like a tiger, hugging him by his neck to bite his cheeks. Selena


    looked up at Zaden,her only trust at this moment. There is no need for Ozrain to ask, he just need to


    exert his alpha tone and Zaden would let her go, but Ozrain didn''t do that. It earned a little trust, a little


    hope that maybe he is sincere about not taking her away. He stretched his arm back, wrapping around


    Selena across her shoulder, revealing her full figure while she was still intact to him. Ozrain''s eyes


    widened even more as he straightened his back. A splitting image of the past, an image that he never


    thought he would see again. Selena looked up at Zaden one more time, revealing her birth mark to


    Ozrain.


    ¡°Amethyst...¡± a whisper came from his lips. Ozrain froze at his position, not believing his own eyes.


    Grandpa Kai slowly walked in from behind, cing his hand on Ozrain''s shoulder and he turned to look


    at him


    ¡°Kairo,Amethyst...¡±Ozrain pointed at Selena and Grandpa Kai smiled as he signaled Selena toe.


    Zaden hesitated but he also trusted Grandpa Kai and let go of Selena, pushing her slightly with his


    palm on her back. Selena walked slowly, fiddling her finger and looking over her shoulders every now


    and then. For Ozrain, it reminded how his daughter would pucker with her lips curved down as drops of


    tears rolled down her chubby cheeks. It would broke his heart, and still does. Selena stood in front of


    Ozrain and Grandpa Kai, her breath still trembling.


    ¡°My dear Moon Goddess, what have you done? She is a splitting image of Amethyst...¡± Ozrain was like


    a spellbound boy, drawn back to 200 years ago as he kept looking and looking at Selena,


    mesmerized.

 CHAPTER 42

    CHAPTER 42


    Something shimmering behind Ozrain''s shirt button. What is that? Selena tried to sharpen her vision. It


    is a gold, heart shaped hiatus locket, something that is familiar to her, much familiar to her. A sudden


    fear striked her, shivering her to core and it clicked. The locket belongs to her mother, Daisy. It is now


    hanging on Ozrain''s neck. The w mark on Daisy''s car and Ozrain saying that his daughter died


    years ago-it all clicked. Ozrain must have killed her mother thinking that she is his daughter. Selena


    eye widened at the locket. Ozrain caught her view, although he doesn''t know how the girl in front of him


    rted to his dead daughter, he was sure of not letting her go. A determination crept to his eye which


    portraited as anger and he is now ring at Selena. She turned around in a swift, attempting to run


    back to Zaden but Ozrain caught her from behind. He lifted her up from the floor.


    ¡°ZADEN!!!¡± the pack panicked and stepped to attack


    ¡®STAY¡¯


    A mind-linked stopped them at their feet. It was Ozrain. An urge to obey him,seized their foot. He


    grabbed hold of the girl in his arm, enduring every hit and scratch she is inflicting. The 5 in front of them


    didn''t move from their spot but begged Ozrain to leave Selena and none entered his ears.


    ¡°Ozrain, what are you doing?¡± Grandpa Kai eximed


    ¡°I''m not losing my daughter one more time¡± Ozrain turned around to leave. Just a few steps before he


    heard a loud voice


    ¡°She is pregnant!!!¡± Ozrain stopped, Selena stopped. Everyone around them stopped


    ¡°She is pregnant, with my child. With your blood, a promise of a next werewolf in Samrat.¡± Everyone''s


    eye widened as they darted back and forth from Selena and Zaden. Even Selena was shocked


    ¡°Please...¡±Zaden dropped to his knees


    ¡°I beg you...let her go...let my child and my love, live a peaceful life. Take me instead. She won''t fight


    you as long as you have me. She can''t... ¡± his voice was low and breaking. His pack was taken back.


    The alpha has kneeled down to save his mate. They exchanged looks between themselves, looking for


    another option but then, Orion kneeled down, next to his alpha. Followed by Sitka, Xavier and Make.


    The whole room felt cold as no one dared to breath heavy. Selena just realized what she had put at


    stake, the future of a whole pack. She calmed down. Maybe it is not a bad idea for one to take a hit for


    their whole pack.


    This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    A devilish smirk crept Ozrain''s lip


    ¡°Now tell me Alpha Zaden, if I have my daughter and a future Samrat in her, why do I need you for?¡±


    Ozrain said and Zaden regret his slip of tongue. He kept silent. With that, Ozrain turned around and


    grabbed Selena''s hands, pulling her behind him. Selena eye kept looking back at Zaden, at his


    vulnerable state. She forced herself to smile at him, a painful smile. She had given up hopes and


    maybe this is for the best, a reset button much needed at the moment.

 CHAPTER 43

    CHAPTER 43


    Selena is in a room that is well furnished, with big windows behind safety bars. A few wolf are ced at


    her door as guards. A golden cage for the angel. Streams of thoughts have been churning her brain,


    despite her calm appearance. Her face hasn''t shown any emotion in the past hours. Sitting on a chair


    next to the window, her eyes have been fixed on the crescent moon outside, high up in the ck sky.


    She or basically her wolf has been intimate with Zaden for the past 10 days. If it is true that she is


    pregnant, how could he have known it so early? Plus, she just had been hospitalized after a major


    injury. Is it possible for an early pregnancy to survive such an impact? Its medically impossible. It must


    have been a lie to deceive Ozrain in hope that he would let her go, she thought. A gentle knock echoed


    from the door and Selena looked up. Ozrain slowly walked in with a calm face


    ¡°Hi...I see you have sent out your dinner?¡± he asked with the same gravelly voice but in a gentle


    manner. Selena dropped back her head on to her pulled up knees. Ozrain sighed out as he sat down


    on the bed next to her.


    ¡°I have been looking for you for 200 years...¡± he whispered


    ¡°I want my Zaden¡± Selena said. She had given up fighting, whatever that ising out is her in


    thoughts and that was the first word she said to Ozrain


    ¡°Look, I am not going to loose you...¡± Ozrain''s sentence got cut off


    ¡°I want my Zaden¡±


    ¡°I know he is your mate...¡±


    ¡°I want my Zaden¡±


    ¡°Would you please let me exin?¡± he eximed but she didn''t even flinch. No fear to deathes


    with it''s own perk.


    ¡°I want my Zaden¡± she repeated. Ozrain temper was raising. He doesn''t want to burst in front of his


    new found rtionship. He strode out of there, as fast as possible. Draven was waiting outside for him


    ¡°What did she say?¡± he asked


    ¡°Nothing important. We will be leaving from here the day after tomorrow. I have to arrange something


    before bringing her out¡± Ozrain said calmly and Draven nodded.


    Back at the red brick house, Zaden has been pacing back and forth themunal room, lips pinched,


    clutching his hip as he sweat profusely. His heart beat hasn''t subsided. For the first time, he is


    extremely conflicted, that he doesn''t know what is his next step.


    ¡°What happen?¡± he asked, still pacing around to Xavier.


    ¡°I arrived at the elderly vige after 2 days. I meet Alpha Draven and Mother Ruth before meeting the


    elderlies. As expected, it took time for us to trante the printed out manuscript. It took another day


    and it was not mentioned who killed Elisa or even a hint in the manuscript, just as Selena suspected. I


    was ready to wrap up and get out of there when Grandma Rose stopped me and asked why we have


    this single piece tranted so many times. I slipped a word, just one bloody fucking word and it got us


    into this mess. I said we needed to find the killer of thisdy and we need to double confirm whether it


    was Ozrain Samrat or not. That''s it, it got chaotic¡± Xavier took them back to time


    ¡°Who is the writer of this letter Xavier?¡± Grandma Rose asked.


    ¡°What connection does it have with Ozrain Samrat¡± Grandpa Ceisure added. Xavier stood there with


    agitation. He just realized he made a huge mistake.


    ¡°Talk, son¡± a deep husky voice came from behind. Xavier looked behind and Draven was there, a


    simr image of Zaden and simr mannerism, with his hands in his pocket. Xavier gulped air and


    refused to talk


    ¡°Fine, have it your way¡± with that Draven linked his pack and they dragged Xavier by his arms, out of


    the house into an open field behind. Wooden handrails where nted in a circle, it''s a sparing ground.


    Draven trusty pack pushed him into the ground as he walked behind them with a smirk. Soon, at least


    dozen of his fighters showed up at the ground, each attacking Xavier at their will. Xavier was not as


    week as they thought. He put up an impressive fight but when more fighters showed up, he shifted to


    his wolf form, a dark blue, almost ck with green eyes. He snarled at them and waited for their attack.


    They also shifted to wolves. Xavier tackled a wolf that pounced on him, biting the wolf''s leg and another


    at its rib. His paw shed through countless wolf''s faces, leaving deep cut. He also had been cut and


    bitten,drowning his strength every minute. Eventually after 15minutes of struggling, Xavier gave up and


    remainedid on the ground, drowsy and gasping for breath as all the other wolves had stopped and


    made a clear path for Draven to walk.


    ¡°Now, talk¡± Draven said. The pain on Xavier''s body was unbearable. The fighter wolves were clearly


    not trying to kill him. They were focused on injuring him, making him suffer in pain. Draven walked to


    stand right next to him, stretched his feet and turned him from his back. He then ced his foot on his


    throat, putting light pressure but it was enough to make Xavier cough. Draven slowly increased a little


    bit more pressure, clogging Xavier''s wind pipe, his eye widened at theck of oxygen


    ¡°Just a few more minutes, it will be over¡± The whole time, he kept repeating to himself. But Draven and


    his fighters aren''t going to allow that happen so easily. Finally Xavier gave up and shifted back to his


    human form. Draven removed his feet


    ¡°Talk¡± he bend slightly and said calmly. Xavier spoke through his coughs


    ¡°Selena...we have his daughter...the manuscript is written by...Elisa Mitkoi...we suspect that...Ozrain


    might have killed her¡± Xavier sat up, gasping for air


    ¡°Selena wanted me to cross check¡± Xavier said


    ¡°Is your alpha stupid? Why didn''t he call Ozrain and hand over his daughter? It would be great benefit


    for our whole pack. We would be able to get the hell out of this ce!!!¡± he eximed


    ¡°We didn''t let him too¡± Xavier said low


    ¡°Selena is a pack member. Orion loves her. We can''t just hand her over to a killer¡± Xavier said, his


    palms were t on the ground as it propped his body up. After a long pause


    ¡°Lock him up and close his mind-link¡± Draven said as he walked away. The fighter helped him up


    ¡°No hard feelings, we obey our alpha just as much as you do¡± one of those hunky fighter said to Xavier.


    He then guided Xavier to a underground room. Xavier washed up, put on new clothes and went to


    sleep. After a few hours, his wounds had recovered 50%. That night, Draven took the elderlies on a


    pnquin as they climbed the highest mountain peak. With the help of elderlies, they prayed to Moon


    Goddess so that their mind-link would reach Ozrain Samrat, The King of werewolves, where ever he is


    in this world. It worked, he got the information and moved towards Mountain Manuka. It took another


    day till he finally came. Draven took Xavier and his fighter to the first vige, in intension to wait for


    Ozrain there. They arrived at the same time that not much information was shared.


    ¡°Wee Ozrain Samrat, we believe we have found your daughter, putting an end to your search¡±


    Draven said politely


    This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    ¡°My daughter died in front of my eye, Draven¡± he said coldly and Draven got confused


    ¡°No sir, she is your daughter. She even have Elisa Mitkoi''s letter.¡± Now that caught his attention. Xavier


    managed to slip away from the group and ran tomunal room. Ozrain didn''t waste much time as he


    motioned Draven to show the way and they came to Selena, taking her away.

 CHAPTER 44

    CHAPTER 44


    Zaden and his pack are now standing at the river bank. The water is so still, and it''s an exceptionally


    deep river. Crossing it might be risky for both human and wolf. Dangerous creatures such as bull shark,


    piranha and anacondas have grown out of proportion in these waters due to no interference from


    outside world. Zaden has checked with his patrol team. Ozrain Samrat haven''t left the mountains. He


    still can sense her presence within his territory but they didn''t find her in any other 2 vige which


    means, for some reason, she must be in elderly vige. He has to cross over alive to be able to bring


    her back. He had been trying to link his father, Draven but so far no reply hase through. He


    couldn''t mind-link Selena as well, which means she must be in the third floor of their house, across the


    river. A few rooms on the third floor and dungeon was built to disable mind-linking and special abilities


    of werewolf. Alexandrite, a very powerful crystals has been embedded around the bottom and top


    edges of the room. With the energy it emits, all special ability is blocked.


    If Ozrain ever wants to leave these mountain, he has toe across the river. The best option for now


    is to wait. Every minute is stabbing knife into Zaden''s heart, thinking how Selena might be suffering


    over there. Is she feed? Did they inflict any pain to her? Is she in afortable situation? Is his baby


    doing fine? Did she remember her promise to shift?


    He recalled the days when they had Selena captivated at the second floor of the red brick house. He


    feed her dinner, thinking that she might stab him with the dinner knife. How nice would that be now,


    having her push a knife through him, in front of his eyes and embrace, instead of across a dangerous


    river, in an unsure situation. He didn''t stop mind-linking his dad but to no avail. It is midnight now


    Back at the elderly vige, Selena still haven''t moved from her seat. All of a sudden, a memory came to


    her mind. A memory from her point of view, Zaden sitting in front of her with his hand cupping her face,


    eyes looking straight into hers, glistening under the moon light.


    ¡°Promise me that no matter what happen, you will keep shifting every night. Promise me that you would


    keep on doing this with or without me...¡±


    Selena frowned slightly. Where did this memoryes from? She doesn''t remember him telling her


    those words. It must be from her wolf. But how would she shift, usually it happens without any


    interference from her. Now she doesn''t know how or what to initiate. The wolf is inside her, finding it


    would be a good starting point, she thought. She closed her eye, nked her mind from all the storms


    going on around her. She failed miserably to connect with her wolf, as she missed Zaden terribly. His


    face, his smile and those bronzy chocte eye kept interfering. No wonder why her wolf would only


    come out when he is around, so that no distractiones to her mind. She didn''t give up, she kept


    trying again and again till 3am. All of a sudden, her surrounding felt extremely silence and empty as her


    vision constricts. She felt like she has detached from her body, like flying, feeling so light but at the


    same time, her body felt extreme pain all over, tip to toe. Then, she got sucked back into a hole, a


    vortex. When the inertia stopped, she snapped her head left and right, but it was pitch ck. She can''t


    see anything. A fear started creeping up her leg when the scenery in front of her began gradually


    fading from pitch ck to gradient ck. She blinked her eyes a few times. The view in front of her


    kept sliding left and right although she is not moving her head. Her view came on and off, like blinking


    although at the moment, her eyes are wide open and she is not blinking. She felt her view raising


    upwards and began shaking, even though she is standing still. The view in front of her tilted upwards,


    the crescent moon is visible from her current room. A painful howl erupted from around her. It took her


    a while until she realized that she is behind her wolf''s eyes, not in control of her body. Her wolf is out.


    Selena bend her head down to look at her paws and her wolf also bend down, a silvery paw with blunt


    ws came to vision.


    ¡°Oh shit¡± she said out loud and her voice echoed around her, making her shut her eyes tight. She


    snapped her head up and the wolf does the same. So, she has some basic control over her head. She


    jumped up and down trying to move the body but nothing happened, so she can''t move her body and


    can''t see her human body as well. She sees a wolf''s body instead. It was a very confusing state and


    after a few more experiments, she sat quietly, as well as her wolf, frozen gaze at the moon. Another


    pair of eye are also frozen at the moon, Zaden and little that he knew, Orion wasn''t sleeping as well. He


    has the same level of hurt Zaden has, only his is considered inappropriate and shouldn''t be expressed,


    she is their Luna.


    Selena didn''t know when but she had fallen asleep on the floor, naked. She stood up and grabbed a


    nket in a hurry when a knock came from her room door. Without waiting for her permission, the


    intruder enters the room. Ozrain became ufortable at the state Selena is now, he snapped his


    head to side


    ¡°Hmm...I will get you some cloths¡± he ced a te of toast and scrambled egg on the nearby table


    and walked out. Soon, an omega she-wolf came with some clothing for Selena. She showered and


    slipped into a pair of sweatpants and t-shirt. She sat back at her chair, looking out of the window. She


    doesn''t know what is her heart looking for at the horizon. A hope, maybe, although her logic tells her


    that it is impossible for Zaden toe here, he said so himself. He built a foul proof system that is


    working against him now. Another knock came from the door and Ozrain entered again. Selena saw


    him with a raised frown, before slowlyid her head on her knees, facing the window. Ozrain paced to


    her. He gently brushed his palm over the back of her head


    ¡°Could you at least eat something?¡± he said, his gravelly voice is low and pleading. He had another


    chance to have his daughter again, he belief so, but she is hurting herself and possibly his grandchild.


    ¡°I want my Zaden¡± stubborn but calm. Ozrain moved to her knees and crouched down.


    ¡°Your Zaden is noting, I am not giving you to him. So, cooperate. You wouldn''t want to hurt your


    baby, would you?¡± he said


    ¡°I want my Zaden¡± it seems like that''s all her vocabry capasity is and that she never learned any


    other word. The same happened at lunch and again, at dinner. She didn''t took even a bite of food and


    started loosing energy that now, sheid on the bed. Ozrain tried every method possible. He sent


    Mother Ruth to make her eat, he used harsh tone and threat, plead, force feed but nothing worked.


    ¡°I want my Zaden¡± that is all she kept repeating. Truth is, his remembrance is shattering her from within


    that maybe, Ozrain doesn''t have to kill her. That night, she shifted to her wolf. She kept her promise but


    this time, it was easier and less painful than before to be sucked into the vortex. Like her, the


    magnificent silver wolf also did not move andid its head on the floor, tears after tears flowed down


    her silver fur. Selena could feel her pain now, mixed with her making it unbearable as she kept


    throbbing and twisting behind the frozen pitch ck eye. The wolf cooed, before forced to close her


    eyes, falling asleep, hoping it will calm Selena down.


    It hasn''t been any better across the river. Nelson came by to deliver the pack their food. All ate except


    for Zaden


    ¡°Zaden, you need energy to fight when shees. Please...¡± Orion tried to force him into eating


    something. He stood up and walked away to the woods nearby, where he climbs up arge rock and


    settled down to get a better view of the mountains, where his heart is beating towards. When he


    returned, the rest of them were sitting down to discuss, Zaden joined in


    ¡°Zaden, if the alexandrite can block mind-linking and a wolf''s special ability, shouldn''t that block his


    alpha order too?¡± Make asked


    N?velDrama.Org: owner of this content.


    ¡°I am not sure. Alpha order or shifting is a wolfs natural ability,ing and remaining within them. An


    alpha is always an alpha. Unlike mind-linking and special ability, the energy starts within but is exerted


    on others. It may or may not work¡± Zaden said low and they all remained silent before Sitka decide to


    ask


    ¡°So, what will we do when they cross over? What is the point of us waiting here?¡± he eximed


    ¡°The point of ME waiting here is to be as close as possible to her, maybe eveny my eye one more


    time on her. Who knows, if the circumstances changes, I might get her back. It''s a hope, a tiny drop of


    hope and I''m fighting to avoid it from evaporating. So, please... If any of you feel like this is a waste of


    time, just leave.¡± He eximed before dropping back to low tone, his eye didn''t budge from the horizon.


    ¡°That''s not what I meant, Zaden. We should be forming a n of attack when she is here, not just


    simply wait¡± Sitka said. He took a step to Zaden before Nelson stopped him and turned him around,


    guiding him somewhere else, giving some space to Zaden. Zaden feels mentally worn out. He has


    been thinking about the same, a n of attack while trying to connect with his father and mother the


    whole time. It is tiring. Zaden gazed at the moon before he too, slipped into deep sleep.

 CHAPTER 45

    CHAPTER 45


    The next morning wasn''t any different from previous. Ozrain exited Selena''s room, rubbing his


    forehead in contempt. Draven who was waiting outside sighed out, he understood what might have


    happened behind the doors. They stared at each other silently for a minute or two. Ozrain is juggling


    between keeping his daughter alive and iming her as his daughter. Which one is more important?


    What if she continues this even after reaching their kingdom? She is already limp due tock of energy,


    how long can she sustain herself? He sighed out one more time.


    ¡°Send the motorboat to bring your son¡± he said coldly. Draven ordered his pack to go across the river,


    he is very well aware that Zaden will be there.


    Selena is feeling very week, she could barely keep her eyes open. Her throat feels extremely dry. She


    was about to ck out when she felt a pair of hands slipping between her neck and thighs, lifting her


    off the floor. A warmth spread through her left torso andter to her neck. The familiar scent hit her


    hard. Her head dangling as a gentle tap on her cheeks tried to wake her up


    ¡°Selena!!!Selena...please, open your eyes¡± a familiar voice demanded. A new found energy made her


    open her eyes. To her delight, its Zaden. She smiled and forced herself to hug him, although he had to


    support her arms. He buried his face in her neck.


    ¡°You are stupid. You hear me, stupid!!!¡± he held her face in his palm and Selena gently smiled at him.


    ¡°Water, please¡± Zaden requested to Ozrain and soon a cup of water was handed to him. He guided the


    cup to Selena''s lip and she drank it slowly.


    ¡°Can you please ask her to eat something? ¡° Ozrain said and soon a bowl of porridge came to them.


    Zaden slowly feed her little by little.


    ¡°Eat¡± she pointed at his lips


    ¡°I just had breakfast. You finish your bowl first¡± he took another spoon and she refused to open up. Her


    eyes are much brighter now.


    ¡°I had enough...¡± she said low with a smile. He sighed out. She is and always had been stubborn as a


    rock. He shove a spoon into his mouth before picking up another for Selena and now, she ate dly.


    They managed to finish 2 bowls of porridge just like that, stealing kisses in between.


    ¡°You know your pregnant right? Why would you behave like this? There is plenty of ways to fight, not


    by risking both of you¡± he whispered to her. No one was in the room now


    ¡°You were serious?¡± Selena frowned.


    ¡°Yes, why would I be joking about this¡± he replied. Selena''s eye widened.


    ¡°Why didn''t you tell me!!!¡± she eximed before swatting his arm and he hissed


    ¡°Looks like someone is back on track. So, can I snuggle on your stomach? Need to hear my cute


    heartbeat¡± he asked and she nodded excitedly. Zaden ced her on the bed, moved her shirt up


    beforeid his cheeks on her tummy. He snuggled on to her skin, inhaling her wonderful scent while


    hearing their baby''s heartbeat. Yes, it is there, as strong as it was before.


    ¡°She is good¡± Selena looked down


    ¡°It can be a he too, you know¡± she said


    ¡°Nope, the heartbeat is like storm and survived a lot. It''s definitely a little Selena¡±


    ¡°How can you hear it when it must have been just, like 13 days?¡±


    ¡°12 days¡± Zaden said making Selena raise both her eyebrow.


    ¡°I heard it the next day after we made love for the first time. Wolves hearing is much more sharper than


    your modern ultrasound scan things¡± he said as he gave her navel a kiss. Selena slowly sat up,


    breaking the skin contact. She sat on the bed, facing down at Zaden who is kneeling on the ground


    ¡°What will happen now?¡± Selena became nervous, thinking of the future. Zaden sat next to her, pulling


    her to hisp, and caressing her arms gently


    ¡°I don''t know what he has nned...we will see¡± he said calmly. A knock on the door rmed them.


    Ozrain opened the door. As soon as Selena saw him, she retreat to Zaden, pulling him close and hiding


    her face in his neck. Fear of being separated again from him struck hailstorm in her. Ozrain felt a stab


    in his heart. Centuries ago, he left Elisa for his mate and today, his daughter refuse to see him for fear


    of losing her mate. Karma never misses its target. He sighed as he walked into the room, sitting next to


    Zaden.


    ¡°I have been trying to talk to your mate here, since we came but she seems toprehend nothing but


    ¡®my Zaden¡¯. Now, I have given her ¡®her Zaden''.Can she hear me out now?¡± Ozrain said as gentle as


    possible. Selena didn''t respond but Zaden nodded.


    ¡°I read the manuscript. Its natural why you would think I killed Elisa but I didn''t. I loved her and will keep


    loving her till thest drop of my blood. Her parents told me she died from child birth. The letter was


    heart wrecking to me, too¡± he paused. Zaden tilted his head down. Selena remained hidden. A mumble


    came from her


    ¡°He has my mother''s chain¡± Zaden looked up at Ozrain. He was wearing a gold chain. Ozrain zoomed


    to his neck and pulled out the heart hiatus locket.


    ¡°This? This I got from a woman named Selena Brook¡± he let out a huffed chuckle


    ¡°Or at least I thought she was Selena Brook, till I met you. I thought she was my daughter. She had this


    chain with her. It was Elisa''s, I gave it to her...¡± Selena slightly looked up from her hide out


    ¡°I have been receiving tip from all over the world that my daughter or son is found. I have a friend


    working in DNA department in one of the prestigiousb, a werewolf too. They have branches all over


    the world. I had always collect blood samples from whoever that I went looking for and sent them to the


    nearestb branch. They will do the DNA sequence, send back to my friend, here. He will match is with


    my blood and Elisa''s blood profile retrieved from her belongings that I found in her forest hut. Elisa''s


    sample is very fragile, can''t be shipped elsewhere, you see. One day, he called me when I was in


    Australia. He said a weird woman came with a b of wood and ordered a DNA profile from that


    wooden piece. They found a match to Elisa''s blood. Then, the same woman came back with a blood


    sample to be matched with Elisa''s DNA and they matched...¡± Now Selena ispletely out of Zaden


    neck and they both are listening attentively.


    ¡°I flew from Australia that night itself and got the weird woman''s address. We found her in a caf¨¦. She


    had just walked into her car and drove away. We followed her and blocked her car in a secluded hill


    road. She was terrified at us. I walked to the driver''s window and she lowered it. The first thing that


    caught my eye was her gold hiatus locket¡±. Ozrain re-lived his encounter.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­


    ¡°Is this yours?¡± Ozrain asked, pointing at Daisy''s neck and she nodded frantically


    ¡°Can I see it?¡± Ozrain asked again and she quickly took it off her neck and passed it to him. She


    thought they were thieves in coat and suit, and that they would leave once something valuable is given


    to them. She swallowed her saliva as anxiety peeks. Ozrain gazed on the locket and pushed the middle


    heart and a key popped out at the bottom. It is the key to Elisa Mitkoi''s wooden chest box, where


    Ozrain and Elisa have kept all the memories of them and their daughter.


    ¡°Are you Selena Brook? The one who Elisa''s DNA matched to?¡± Ozrain asked. Daisy just realized what


    is this all about, they are not just thieves. They look dangerous and Selena is still a young girl who


    doesn''t know that she is a werewolf. Daisy couldn''t figure out either they are from the good side or bad


    side.


    ¡°Finally, our search is over¡± someone mumbled from behind Ozrain and he nodded silently


    ¡°We have been looking for you all over the world ¡° another one said. They have been looking for


    Selena? Daisy remained there frozen. What are they nning to do with her ones they find her? She


    must be worth a lot if the group in front of her has been looking all around the world for her. They were


    wearing coat and suit, which means they are rich. Could it be that they are here to capture her


    daughter, Selena and make money out of her? In a freak show? Or some sort of DNA study since the


    person in front of her has good connection with a DNAb.


    T¨ºxt ? N?velDrama.Org.


    ¡°Where is the chest box?¡± he asked. How did they know about the chest box? Daisy didn''t use it in


    DNA matching, how could they have known it? The box was right below her seat


    ¡°It''s in the trunk¡± Daisy lied. Whatever their purpose is, she cannot give away her precious baby just


    like that. Ozrain stayed by her, gazing coldly at her while the other have moved to the car trunk. Tiny


    beads of sweat is now covered her forehead and neck.


    ¡°Chief, we can''t open it¡± one said from the back and Ozrain, shifted his eyes temporarily to the car rear


    and back to Daisy.


    ¡°You have to jiggle it a bit, with force¡± Daisy said and Ozrain moved away from her to try open the stuck


    trunk by himself. The minute he touched the car trunk, a screeching tire sound erupted and the car


    zoomed forward. In Daisy''s mind, she has to choose between her life and Selena''s. She pressed the


    gas pedal as hard as she could. In front of them were a cliff. Ozrain panicked and the his pack grabbed


    the car with full force. Their ws extended in order to anchor the car. Daisy pressed the pedal at full


    force now. Ozrain is also holding the car. It is hard for a machine to fight 5 werewolf''s strength. After


    such a fight, the car started coughing sts of dark smoke from the rear and it hit Ozrain and his pack


    right in their face. They started coughing but held on to the car. In a few second they started suffocating


    and the grip loosen a bit, zooming the car down cliff. Ozrain ran behind the car


    ¡°NO!!!!¡± he screamed. His brain trying so bad to rewind a few minutes back but what has happened,


    had happened. Daisy crashed down the cliff, dead on the spot. Ozrain and his pack shift into


    werewolves and climbed down the cliff. They saw Daisy in the car with a wooden branch struck through


    her heart. Ozrain let out a screeching howl as he started attacking his own pack out of depression. The


    pack has gotten used to this, they took his fury in full force until he finally cked out.


    Ozrain slowly opened his eye that was tightly shut closed till now, reliving the most terrifying nightmare


    of his existence. His eyes are red as a drop of tear edges his lower eyeline, threatening to drop anytime


    now. Selena is back in Zaden¡¯s neck, muffling her screams with her palms. Tears falling down in


    streams.


    ¡°All these years...I had been searching all around the world, not for a heir to my kingdom, but a


    bloodline to call as my own family. Your mother might not be a resemnce of Amethyst or a werewolf,


    but she is still my bloodline, the tiny hope that I was looking for, all these years. My life is an inevitable


    mess. I have killed enough people in my quest for a family¡± Ozrain stood up and moved closer to


    Selena, who had recoiled in Zaden''sp and Zaden has hugged her as tight as possible, a much


    needed gesture at the moment. Ozrain ran his palm over her head


    ¡°I have seen my daughter. My prayers have been answered. That is enough for me. You don''t need


    Samrat, you don''t need to be my daughter. You can stay here, as the queen of this small viges,


    where they will worship you, take care of you and let you be in peace with your own family. You don''t


    need me, my dear angel...¡± with that Ozrain turned by his heel and walked away from there.

 CHAPTER 46

    CHAPTER 46


    Draven was waiting for Ozrain outside the room, as usual.


    ¡°So?¡± he asked


    This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    ¡°Well, she had eaten and regained her strength. I have said what I wanted to say. There is nothing


    more left for me, here. I''m leaving to Samrat Kingdom. It''s time for me to face my responsibilities. Could


    you arrange a motorboat for me, please?¡± Draven nodded to Ozrain''s request.


    Back in the room, Selena''s wailing of pain haven''t subsided


    ¡°She didn''t die from ident, Zaden. It was a suicide. It was a fucking suicide to save me!!!¡± Zaden


    frowned deeply, he didn''t try to stop her. She needs this, a much needed moment to expel her pain


    ¡°Let it all out, baby girl...When you are done, I will be here¡± he rocked her back and forth. It took her a


    whole 30 minutes to slow down, still letting out tiny sob as drops of tears fall down once in a while.


    Zaden had just returned to the room with a ss of water. Selena took a few sips out of the cup.


    ¡°The worst has passed, Selena. Ozrain is done packing, he is not taking you away.¡± Zaden said with a


    smile. Selena eye snapped up from her ss with an unrecognized fierce.


    ¡°We have been worrying for no reason all this while...¡± he sighed out in relief, but it didn''tst long.


    Selena stood up from her bed in a sh and walked out of the room. Zaden followed her in a hurry. She


    climbed down the stairs in a hunch, towards a living hall she remembered passing a few days ago.


    There, Ozrain was saying his farewells as he released Draven from his hug. Selena strode to him and


    grabbed his cor


    ¡°And where do you think you are going?¡± She asked in anger. Ozrain, who was never had been treated


    in such a way, stood there shocked, but his feet remained steadily anchored to floor.


    ¡°You think you can walk in here, confess to me that you and your lover is behind all my pain, then just


    walk out from here casually?¡± By now Zaden has hugged her from behind, not in love, but to restrain


    her into his cage called arms. She let go of his cor but her anger still fuming.


    ¡°Elisa''s death is the reason behind all this. She reincarnated as me, because her life ended in the most


    painful way imaginable. Because of that, my mother died protecting me. Elisa''s death and your failure


    to protect her, is the root cause of my life turning upside down. You owe me!!! You owe me big time and


    you are not going anywhere.¡± She shouted at Ozrain, next to Draven, who is also shocked by their little


    Luna''s fury.


    ¡°You said you were looking for me the past 200 years, right?¡± She seemed to have toned down and


    Ozrain noded, still ring at her


    ¡°Now you have found me. What you have brought for your long lost child?¡± she cocked her eyebrows.


    Ozrain thrust his hands into his pant pockets and chinned up, still ring under his eyes.


    ¡°I''m standing in front of you as a millionaire, my dear angel. I can buy you the whole world. What you


    want?¡± he asked, resulting a smirk on Selena''s lips


    ¡°Elisa''s murderer. Can you bring him here?¡± Zaden snapped his head to Selena. She is blowing and


    feeding the fire that has resided. Ozrain huffed a breath by his nose and smirked


    ¡°With pleasure¡±

 CHAPTER 47

    CHAPTER 47


    ¡°Are you out of your mind?¡± Zaden was pacing left and right in front of Selena, who is now sitting in her


    favorite green couch with her knees up and her nails fiddling with fabric of her pants, eyes on her knees


    as if found something fascinating there.


    ¡°Look at me¡± he eximed, shocking Selena as she jerked and looked up at him.


    ¡°We have been fighting so hard to keep you away from him and now you want to go cruising with him?


    Have you gone crazy?¡± Zaden asked, fuming with anger


    ¡°That was when we thought he killed Elisa¡± she mumbled low but Zaden heard her.


    ¡°And you believe him? Where did this sudden attachment to him came from? ¡° Zaden pitch is rising


    higher, clutching his hip. Make opened her mouth to defend Selena when Zaden throw a deadly


    re at her, effectively shutting everyone around at once.


    ¡°This is why you should never trust girls...¡± he turned to mumble and continued his never-ending


    journey, to her left and then right. Selena waited patiently for him to cool down before she could exin


    herself.


    ¡°The minute she gets someone remotely rted to her, she immediately throws me out of the


    window...¡± he kept mumbling before he stopped opposite her and bend down to face her with both of


    his handnded with a thump on the chair''s arm rest.


    ¡°What happen to ¡®I love you too, Zaden¡¯, huh? Where is that ¡®I want my Zaden¡¯ now? Do you even


    remember him?¡± he said in a fury mixed with mocking tone and Selena narrowed her eye in suspicion.


    Patience isn''t working, time for violence. She leaned to her side


    ¡°Excuse me, please don''t mind us¡± right after she said that, she pulled Zaden by his cor to her and


    smashed her lips with his. His hands clutched arms rest even thighter in resentment. It took only a few


    seconds before he gave in and responded to her lips. The pack turned their back to Zaden and Selena.


    Orion looking away from them irritated as a pang felt in his heart. She moved her hands to cup his face.


    Their wet kissing sound is making everyone ufortable. She broke the kiss


    ¡°Are you worried of me or jealous of my great great great grandfather?¡± she was still holding on to his


    chins


    ¡°But I want you...don''t go, please...¡± his eye are soft now, a pleading, puppy eye. Selena pinched her


    lips in, trying to hold herughter.


    ¡°Look, it will be a very quick run. We will go, kill the person responsible ande back here. Simple¡±


    she shrugged her shoulder as if she is nning to buy a bread and egg for breakfast. Zaden''s face


    turned cold. He swatted her hands off his chin and stood up, turning around. Selena stood up slowly


    and walked to his back, hugging him from behind. He melts to her body warmth, no way around it


    ¡°You cane too, if you want...the baby would miss his father...¡± she said softly, effectively conveying


    her message.


    ¡°Her!!!¡± Zaden eximed, emphasizing the baby''s gender


    ¡°Ok fine, her father, happy?¡± Zaden looked at his pack, with Selena''s arms still around his stomach


    ¡°Alpha Draven can be in charge here for a while, I mean, we can''t let our Luna fight alone¡± Orion


    barged in first. Zaden smiled.


    ¡°Now, how are we going to figure out who killed Elisa?¡± Xavier questioned


    ¡°Only one person knows the answer to that!!!¡± Grandpa Kai wiggled his eyebrow, pointing his eye


    behind Zaden


    That night, Zaden and Selena went to Lake Khalifa, as usual, not wanting to miss another shifting. On


    the way, he inquired about her stay at the Elderlies Vige


    ¡°It was so surreal, seeing the world from another eye¡± Selena said


    ¡°That''s good. You can feel your wolf...¡± Zaden stopped abruptly when he noticed Selena wasn''t next to


    him. He turned around with a frown to see Selena a few steps behind him. She seemed ufortable,


    her eye flickering around as her breathing became irregr. She kept licking her lips because it dries


    up the next second. Her knees rubbing against each other slowly and her whole body is wiggling like a


    worm.


    ¡°What''s wrong?¡± Zaden approached her but she took a step back


    ¡°Nothing...¡± she tugged a strand of hair behind her ears. Zaden watched her curiously


    ¡°Selena, are you not feeling well? Do you want me to bring you back?¡± he took a step forward and she


    took a step backward, biting her lips. After a pause, she spoke


    ¡°I can feel her...¡± very low sound came out


    ¡°Who?¡± Zaden


    ¡°My wolf...I guess¡± Selena said


    ¡°So? Let her out, we are here for that aren''t we?¡± Zaden took a step forward and she backed a few


    steps


    ¡°I can feel her...desire...¡± Selena seemed to be struggling a lot. It hit him, she is in heat, lustful heat.


    ¡°Why isn''t sheing out?¡± Selena smacked her lips in annoyance, looking everywhere else but


    Zaden. He smirked and strode to her fast. He grabbed her waist, pulling her to him and kissing her


    passionately. He sucked and pulled her lips further before letting go, making it bounce a little.


    ¡°That is not helping...¡± Selena licked her lips again and her breath is shaky.


    ¡°There is no her turn and your turn. You both belong to me, and we both belong to you...she is teasing


    you. You have to bring her out and maintain you presence as well. Refuse to go to the vortex.¡± He


    whispered


    ¡°I would love to taste both of you together. Your innocence and her boldness, what would that be like?¡±


    he chuckled.


    ¡°She cannot resist me, oh no, she can''t...¡± he let out another giggle as he kissed down to her neck. A


    jolt of electricity attacked her, striking precisely on her spine at the simple gesture. She bit her lips hard,


    moaning through them as Zaden became an artists tonight, with his tongue drawing unexpected lines


    on her jaw and neck. Then he resort to sucking and nibbling.


    ¡°Don''t let her take full control¡± Zaden whispered as he is at her earlobe now. Selena yelped out and her


    lips began trembling. There, she sees a vortex and her mind slipping. She bit her lips, dragging her


    self-back to ground but she didn''t seedpletely, so it is fair to say that she is in a floating range


    mentally.


    Her innocent part refused while the bold part wanted more. She phased back avoiding him but when he


    caught her, she submits to him. A series of cat and mouse game would feed the lust of a wolf, wouldn''t


    it? It did exactly that, his hunting instinct and his lust answered equally. At the end, she went with


    whatever he wanted, enduring every single touch with overpowering moan and squirming of an


    innocent. Her eye is now swirling with both grey and ck. She was sitting on top but she didn''t do


    anything, he thrust from bottom up, foundling her firm bust, a sensation too much to handle that she


    came 2 times before he did. He then turned her around toy on the grass, switching position. He


    thrust her while holding her hands crossed into X resting at her front. Her body movement, especially


    those 2 bouncing beauties, made him even more crazy, if it is even possible. He finally cum into her


    before retrieving. He snuggled to her stomach while waiting for her breathing to calmed down. Nothing


    more rxing than the cute heartbeat of his baby.


    ¡°I need to talk to your wolf...¡±Zaden said between his breath and she let go of her control. As if had


    been waiting at the door, her wolf snapped in, pulling Zaden up for a vicious kiss.


    ¡°What? You are still not satisfied?¡± Zaden chuckled. She pulled his lips with her teeth, earning a manly


    hiss from him.


    ¡°Of course I am, but you bullied her, didn''t you? You used her too much, knowing that she won''t fight


    back¡± Zaden smiled in return.


    N?velDrama.Org: owner of this content.


    ¡°Show me your grits, I can answer that. Not her...¡± she whispered to his ears. He gave her a smug look


    ¡°You remember, you asked whether I like her or you?¡± she nodded, knowing where this is leading to, as


    agitation consumed her


    ¡°I like when both of you arebined¡± he licked his lips with lusty eye. She giggled but Zaden''s face


    dropped that instant


    ¡°Baby, I need to ask something¡± he said low, seriousness pumped up. She sighed out before retrieving


    to a more rxing position, legs crossed straight.


    ¡°Go on¡± she said


    ¡°Who killed Elisa Mitkoi?¡± he asked and there ites, the devilish smirk up her lips


    ¡°The right question!!!¡± she paused


    ¡°It was Epsilon, the current king wolf¡± Zaden''s eye widened


    ¡°How-wh-but-how did he know about Elisa?¡± Zaden stammered a bit before being able to form a


    sentence. She shrugged


    Without wasting time, Zaden, Selena, Ozrain and the leader''s pack set their journey, driving their


    vehicles out of the mountain, enduring the cold night and bumpy mounds. Selena had returned to her


    human form and is now sitting next to Zaden at the back seat, his arms wrapped around her back and


    her head snuggledfortably on his chest. Make''s arms is around Selena''s stomach, as she is


    sleeping on Zaden''s hand. Selena emits a motherly sort of aura that makes Make wants to snuggle


    to her. Selena is deep in sleep, thou. All the warmth she needs is right there, under her cheeks. Zaden


    looked down at her, cing a soft kiss on her forehead. He couldn''t pull even a drop of sleep as his


    fear of what might happen at their arrival keeps hunting him. They will be facing a huge pack, safe to


    say, an army of werewolves at morning. What will happen to them, he really don''t care at this point.


    Whether he returns or not, he needs to return Make to her daughter and Selena to her father. That is


    the n if things don''t turn out favorable to them


    ¡°2 more days, huh?¡± Orion said from front passenger seat. Sitka is sitting next to Make while Xavier


    is driving the car. Nelson, Make mate insisted oning with them but Make refused till thest


    minute. If anything happens to them, she need someone to take care of their daughter, precautionary


    steps.


    ¡°Yes...2 more long days...¡± Zaden sighed out


    ¡°I still can''t believe you impregnated her without her knowledge. Couldn''t you keep her wolf at bay?¡± it


    has been bothering Orion for the past few days and finally it came out


    ¡°Why does it bother you so much? She is my mate, she has full rights to have me anyway she like and


    I didn''t n to impregnate her. Plus, you don''t know her wolf¡± Zaden was clearly annoyed. Orion gave


    up by shaking his head slowly before letting out a sigh.


    ¡°What are we going to do tomorrow?¡± Orion added


    ¡°I don''t know yet. There is not even a slightest chance for 5 of us and 1 Selena to fight that big of an


    army. The only possibility is that they would adore her and adopt her into their pack¡± The 3 of them


    chuckled since Sitka is sleeping. After a pause


    ¡°Would you guys please do me a favor? Call me selfish but if something happens to me, please bring


    home Selena and Make...and Orion, please take care of her for me. I know she would be a great


    Luna and even an Alpha at her will, but she would need your assistance and support. And that''s an


    order¡± a pain felt in Orion and Xavier''s heart, as if someone had just reached in and grabbed their


    heart, seizing its beat. For Orion, his eye reflected something more than mere pain, something


    unexinable at the moment. He took a vow, to himself. He hade to terms that he might never get


    her, but he would always love her and protect her till hisst drop of blood. The only purpose of his


    painful life is to keep her happy, never to let her smile fade away.

 CHAPTER 48

    CHAPTER 48


    Little did they now, miles away from the peaceful Mountain Manuka, a deadly beast had escaped with


    wound and now in need of it''s master to heal her. Crystal clear, sea green waves hitting the white


    sands of Samrat Kingdom, edged by different height of rocks. A luxury mansion stood mighty facing the


    beach, on top of a hill. The cliffs and hills with dense forest has be a perfect yground for


    werewolves, to build their strength. On the other end of ing, a bridge connects them to the outside


    world. Beyond the bridge is fishing ports, indicating the beginning of cosmopolitan city. A lot had


    changed since Ozrain had left. The power of king Epsilon is obviously visible here with a 15 feet height


    statue, erect in the middle of mansion entrance, in the middle of a fountain. Epsilon has been running


    his own private government here. Every single resident of the ind is to submit 25% of their earning to


    the king. Nothing is done without his permission, even a regr household decision such as sending


    their child to higher studies or marking ceremony of their child is to get the King''s permission. He


    carefully molds his followers, not be too educated or financially free as he might lose control over them.


    Only children from his close alliance are allowed to study into higher position such aswyer, doctor,


    CEOs etc. People living under his territory has put their own effort in refurbishing the ind, from


    inte connection, proper electricity, sewage and education provided with his permission. The only


    reason no one had rebelled to his cruelty is one,because of 2 rogue pack fused personally by the king


    into the ind. Those rogues,will not hesitate to kill anyone rebelling against king. two, Queen Aira,


    their Luna. They cannot risk her life. Killing or hurting Epsilon means they are projecting the same to


    her. Just like Selena, she is also a mother to the whole pack, only Selena is confined to the 5 in


    leader''s pack because she hasn''t been marked by their alpha yet.


    Epsilon is a ruthless, merciless king and a satyromaniac. At height of 6 feet and a body of 150kg with


    pure muscles, tanned caramelplexion, an intimidating wolf tattoo covering his left arm, he could be


    the drooling material of young woman. But his habit of always wearing his favorite red velvet clock,


    brutality, greed and medival concept of woman are just for sexual satisfaction, made him nowhere fit


    into the modern world. He wasn''t so terrible when Ozrain was the king but ever since he left and


    Epsilon started gaining more in number, making him the ultimate ruler, he became fearless to do


    whatever he wants. Queen Aira, being the gentle woman she is, couldn''t satisfy hispulsive sexual


    desire, nor stop his injustice to his own people. He hunts down she-wolf like an animal and enves


    them in his underground dungeon till he gets bored with them, providing minimal for their well-being


    while they are under his care. Thousands of women had been captive in his underground bedroom,


    specially made for him. Those woman have experienced the worst in their life, being tied up to the bed,


    not knowing when he would walk in and rape them cruelly, like a mad dog, chasing after meat. Bitten,


    beaten, tortured and prated with unmentionable instruments are just a few to name. When he was


    done, he doesn''t have the curtesy to untie them, exposing them to many pass-bying hungry wolves


    who takes advantage of their vulnerable state as well. These woman return to the world above,


    completely torn and with no desire to live another day, some even goes to the extent ofmitting


    suicide. Those who live suffer from insomnia and nightmares, being shell shock for the rest of their live.


    From time to time, human are also abducted to satisfy him and when his semi-wolf form takes over


    during intimacy, it tends to kills them. Their bodys are thrown off cliff to feed sea creatures.


    Queen Aira had rarely left the mansion. Everything that she needs from the finest jewelries to designer


    dresses, books and handworks to pass her time is provided to her by the King. Despite his cruel


    nature, he is deeply in love with the Queen and wouldn''t hesitate to kill even his royal subjects for her.


    In fact, he began to enve she-wolfs because he couldn''t tolerate seeing her suffer under his vicious


    lust. He had to relieve his madness on someone else at least twice in a row, so that he would be calm


    when he is with Queen Aira. Since he is not her designated mate by moon goddess and that she


    doesn''t love him, it doesn''t hurt her that much when he has sex with other woman


    Till today, 8 more packs had fused into their mother pack, making a total of 13 packs, 5867 werewolves


    leaving in an ind, making it the most cramped up pack ever known. To amodate that much


    poption, houses are built small. Apartments are not an option as no building is to be taller than the


    King''s mansion, exerting his dominance over them. Every household have to produce at least one


    trained fighter. Patrol team of 200 wolves is always on the lurk around the ind and great importance


    is given tobat training. Rogues are also hired by the king, to keep bringing she-wolf for his lust and


    to keep an eye on all pack around the world for one werewolf, one that has moon mark on the neck, a


    Samrat''s bloodline.


    The wounded creature, slithering its white body in the water edge of a cliff, letting out an echoing cry to


    call its master. It has used all its energy to uphold its floating body, lost a lot of blood during the battle


    with werewolves. After a long wait, an entity under red cloak emerged from the woods, striding as


    quickly as it can towards the creature. A hand stretches out to caress the Goya''s head. The moment


    their skin came in contact, memories from Goya transferred to her master''s mind. yback of all that


    had happened in the past days including its battle with the werewolves and how a silver wolf, shinning


    under the clear blue water lured it towards the rocky edges of riverbank. His master petted the Goya''s


    head even more lovingly that it closed its eye, feeling safe and belonging. A sharp knife came from


    under the cloak, slicing across the creature''s neck. It has disappointed it''s master. It had the chance to


    kill the Samrat''s bloodline but it failed terribly. But it served onest purpose, it has revealed the


    location of Samrat''s bloodline and had shown her master how she looks like; silver wolf with moon


    mark.


    Selena woke up all of a sudden jolt, pulling Zaden out of his sleep that just took over him 1 hour ago.


    He frowned and opened his eyes with much effort, sliding his palm to cup her chin, caressing her.


    ¡°What''s wrong?¡± he asked in a husky voice. In return, he got a weird reaction from her. She started


    exhaling slowly with a series of squeeze shut and open her eye.


    ¡°Stop the car¡± she said low and they implied, causing a chain reaction for the next 2 jeep behind them


    to alsoe to a stop. Selena got out of the car, as she stood by a the road side, inhaling fresh air for


    a few moment. Her vision is blurry, her heart pounding crazy in her ears and her mouth feel bitter.


    ¡°Are you nauseas or something? ¡° Sitka asked as he looked over to Make for approval, only to get


    rolled eye at.


    ¡°It''s too early for that you idiot¡± Make answered him


    ¡°Is everything fine?¡± Ozrain''s voice came from another side as he approached her. She does look


    rather dizzy, supporting her head with her hand and slow blinking eye. The truth is, she is experiencing


    another vortex but it was different. This time, she couldn''t enter the vortex even 8f she wanted to. There


    was a certain maic energy emitting from the vortex pulling Selena towards it but then again,she


    couldn''t enter it. She can feel her wolf being harbored in her, recoiled, for the first time. Usually, she is


    the one who would be inside the wolf. Her wolf is different, she seemed...scared. Her head felt


    spinning. She lost bnce and leaned towards Ozrain which he weed with an open chest. Now


    Zaden was rolling his eye.


    ¡°Girls!!!¡± he mumbled in annoyance, being his usual possessive self. Soon, like in seconds, Selena got


    sober again and after a drink of water, she was able to stand on her own feet


    ¡°Where are we?¡± she asked


    ¡°A few meters from Samrat''s woods.¡± Ozrain said as he pointed ahead of them. Selena was surely


    wooed. All she could see was a huge mansion, more like a castle, standing tall above all trees,on what


    looked like a shill. They are almost there. Her heart still pounding heavy in her chest.


    Within the next few minutes, they were entering the Samrat territory. Wolves started emerging from


    behind trees, swarming like bees around 3 jeeps that had entered without permission. There could


    easily be at least 150 wolfs, all with their fangs and vicious snarls, looked like hell keepers to Selena.


    She grabbed Zaden by his neck and climbed up to hisp, eyes darting all around, in fear. Zaden


    looked at her with raised eyebrow, not that he didn''t want her on hisp but not now. What if he had to


    jump out to help Ozrain?


    ¡°Don''t worry, I will keep you safe¡± she said, patting gently on his chest, after feeling awkwardly stupid.This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    ¡°What is happening?¡± Selena said low as fear started to consume her.


    ¡°Territory pack. We have entered their territory without authorization and they look pissed¡± Zaden eye


    was scanning the whole surrounding. Anytime now, the wolves will bump into their jeep, Zaden was


    holding on to Selena''s shoulder, making sure she is safe. A red wolf,rge and fierce,nded in front of


    their jeep. All 3 jeep came to a stop


    ¡®Stay inside¡¯. A mindlink from Ozrain boomed within their ears and they obeyed. Doors of the third car


    opened up, silencing the growls from those wolves. Ozrain and his pack stepped out. He strode calmly


    with full confidence towards the red wolf. Eye of the red wolf slowly changed from fierce, to clear and


    then widened significantly. He bend one of his front leg and bowed his head, making sure the neck is


    visible to Ozrain. A chain reaction took ce as all the other wolves bowed to him


    ¡°Delta Maximus... I am honored with your loyalty¡± Ozrain said with a calm expression. Back in the jeep,


    Selena and her leader''s pack was watching inattentively. Selena pulled Zaden even closer to her, his


    forehead is now touching her cheeks, as if he is a teddy bear and she is a 5 years old girl.


    ¡°This should be easier than I thought¡± Zaden said, eyes still fixed at Ozrain. And they all nodded, eyes


    fixed at Ozrain. The so called Maximus wolf, shifted into his human form before he took huge strides to


    Ozrain and hugged him


    ¡°King Ozrain!!!How I have been dying to see you onest time¡±

 CHAPTER 49

    CHAPTER 49


    Ozrain and Maximus hugged each other with a heartyugh. After years, the wait is finally over. From


    further exchange of conversation, it came to light that Maximus is not the Delta anymore, he is the beta


    to Epsilon. He also exined all that has happened since Ozrain left, in brief. Some details that he was


    saying seemed to bother Ozrain, as a discontent visible in his face.


    ¡°You refused toe back unless you have found your child. Does that mean you had found him?"


    Ozrain knocked out of his deep thought


    ¡°It''s a she¡± he swung open one of his arms, pointing towards the first jeep. Maximus walked together


    with Ozrain to the first jeep as the window of rear seat rolled down. Revealing the beautiful, sweet,


    fragile girl on thep of a masculine alpha, hugging his neck, head tilted down. Maximus ced his


    elbow on the window frame


    ¡°Hi there, pumpkin...I''m Maximus, your grandpapa''s old friend. What''s your name?¡± he asked, nothing


    connects between his tone and facial expression to the red wolf in front of them a few minutes ago.


    ¡°S-Selena¡± she said with a little stutter, still looking down, making Maximus frown in confusion. His eyes


    fanned to Zaden and Zaden pointed his eyes towards Maximus''s naked lower abdomen. Maximus


    gasped in realization


    ¡°It''s ok...we are werewolves, aren''t we? This is normal, right?¡± Maximus said with the same sweet


    manner.


    ¡°But she is not fully a werewolf yet and still in the process of learning our normality. So, Maximus,


    sweatpants is much appreciated¡± Ozrain nudged him with an elbow and they chuckled. It turned out, he


    rushed over here after being notified the unauthorized entry and shifted midway, so he has no cloth for


    changing, an issue that all werewolf seems to face, at least in front of Selena.


    ¡°She is nothing like you, is''t she?¡± Maximus asked, still not rushing to get his sweatpants


    ¡°She is a xerox copy of my daughter, Amethyst. You wouldn''t know, you never saw them, right?¡± Ozrain


    said and Maximus nodded with a sorrow face. Maximus shifted into his wolf form and lead the way into


    the Samrat''s Kingdom. Ozrain turned to Selena


    ¡±It feels like for ever since I stepped into my nativend... I feel like walking. Would you mind


    apanying me, my angel?¡± he extends his open palm in front of Selena. His eye filled with a


    longing, which is weird considering that just a few days ago, he was considered as death sentence


    from hell for Selena. Her lips curved with a merely there smile as she opened the car door and slipped


    off Zaden''sp, taking Ozrain''s hand with hesitation. She still haven''t put her full thrust on him. Zaden,


    on the other hand, was obviously offended that he looked away to Make and Make shrugged at


    him. She had witnessed how irritated he gets when he have to share Selena, even if it is with her


    grandfather. A sudden thug felt on Zaden''s hand. He turned and looked down at his hand, Selena was


    holding his index finger behind her. He looked up and she was talking to Ozrain. She didn''t look back


    but moved ahead, subconsciously holding on Zaden''s finger. Zaden slipped off the jeep and followed


    her. They have known each other for a very short while, yet she has grownpletely dependent on


    him, thrusting him with her full heart. It made him happy, like topsy turvy happy. A smile apanied


    with blush crept up his cheeks. He pulled away his finger and gently held her waist with one hand,


    leaning down and ced a kiss on her neck. She turned around and gave him a weird, ¡®have you gone


    cuckoo¡¯ look before resuming her conversation with Ozrain.


    The wind began blowing heavy, as if a storm is on the horizon, carrying together bunches of dried


    leaves and magnolia flowers together with them-sweeping pass them. Ozrain doesn''t remember, the so


    called, his native or birthnd. When he left, there were rows of wooden houses, lined perfectly. Now


    they are reced with smaller brick house, scattered between bushes. The old dirt road is reced


    with nice pavements. Handheld fire torch is now reced with electric powered lights. Only older


    members are visible outdoor and after careful inspection, they recognized the man walking through the


    land. The stood up slowly, leaving behind their garden and afternoon teas, approaching Ozrain.


    ¡°Oh dear, is that you? King Ozrain?¡± an olddy managed to grab Ozrains arms with a grin upto her


    ears.


    ¡°Yes, Martha. It is me. This is my daughter Selena and her mate Zaden¡± he introduced Selena and


    Zaden to that olddy, Martha and she hugged Selena, caressing her hair.


    ¡°Oh lord, finally. He found you!!!¡± she eximed. This repeated all the way till they reached mansion.


    The news of Ozrain Samrat''s return had spread like wild fire within the matter of minutes.


    ¡°I should warn you. It might get ugly up there. If it does, I will need you to cover for her.¡± Ozrain looked


    at Zaden and he nodded gently


    ¡°And you...always remember that you have a precious pearl in your tummy. Don''t ever try to barge into


    the fight. I won''t allow you or the baby to get hurt¡± Selena nodded as well


    Soon, they arrived at a short bridge running over a small stream of river. Ozrain''s and Zaden''s jeep had


    already arrived there with the upants waiting patiently for them. Beyond that bridge, stood a statue


    of mighty King Epsilon, in the middle of a huge fountain. Then the piece ofnd expands to vast garden


    on left and right, mansion right behind, in line with the statue. Hundreds of bulky werewolves had


    already gathered around the mansion, crowding the entry door. There were a total of 15 people on their


    side, a difference that can''t be ignored. Yet, 13 of them is assigned to protect Selena. They did their job


    well as she cannot see what''s happening in front there, with her height being major disadvantage.


    N?velDrama.Org: owner of this content.


    Ozrain walked alone towards the mansion. As he got closer, there he was. Epsilon, walking out of the


    house, healthy as a horse. His hair has more grey in it than what Ozrain used to remember. His skin is


    still vibrant caramel but a few new scars is visible on his cheeks. Unlike Ozrain and Zaden, he is clean


    shaved, hairbed back with obvious use of hair gel, a perfume that is way too strong that it pierce


    through ones nose and a red button up shirt and ck trousers. His green eye threw daggers at


    Ozrain, who is now standing in front of him with his hands in his pocket, no where near to portraying his


    actual age.


    ¡°Ozrain Samrat...¡± Epsilon said in a hideous, gravelly voice


    ¡°How nice to see you again. Wee to my kingdom¡± he added


    ¡°My kingdom, Beta Epsilon¡± Ozrain looked up from his slightly tilted down head, sending shiver of fear


    to everyone standing there


    ¡°That was 200 years ago, Ozrain. You are in mynd now, where 5000 plus pack member live under


    my govern¡± Epsilon said cocky.


    ¡°What is happening? Zaden...¡± she looked over Zaden''s shoulder with worry filled eye


    ¡°They are talking. Did you guys have anything nned?¡± Zaden darted to one of Ozrain''s man.


    ¡°He is going to fight Epsilon for the alpha position¡± the man answered.


    ¡°WHAT???¡± the 6 from Zaden''s side eximed in shock. They new there might be a fight but they didn''t


    expect Ozrain to actually trigger one.


    ¡°Is he crazy?¡± Zaden


    ¡°We can''t let that happen, its ridiculous¡± Selena stepped from Zaden''s back. Epsilon eye darted right


    across his statue,nding on Selena. Zaden held tight both of Selena''s hand behind her while still


    arguing with Ozrain''s man. Epsilon''s wolf vision scanned Selena from top to bottom, mesmerized at her


    beauty. Proportioned curves to apany her tiny waist, her plum breast with slight cleavage peeping


    through, slender and long neck above it. Is she a replica of the sex Goddess, Aphrodite herself? A rare


    beauty that triggered his desire, even from 200 feets away.


    ¡°King Epsilon, I, Ozrain Samrat challenge you for your position as alpha of Samrat Kingdom¡± Ozrain


    said calmly


    ¡°No need for that¡± Epsilon said, making his men murmur in disagreement, sending Ozrain confused.


    ¡° You are a Samrat with ability to control mind and I am just a regr alpha wolf. Is it even a fair fight,


    Ozrain?¡± Epsilon said with a raised eyebrow.


    ¡°But, I am willing to trade...That girl, ck hair, silver stripe for this kingdom¡± an echo of gasped took


    over and a Maximus leaned down to Epsilon''s ear, murmuring something, only to end up being


    dismissed by Epsilon. A murderous rage filled Ozrain''s eye. He doesn''t have to look back to know who


    he is referring to. It was his granddaughter, Selena. But since Epsilon has a point and Selena is


    Zaden''s mate, he thought it would be better for him to fight. He mind-linked Zaden toe. Zaden


    snapped his head to his direction


    ¡°He wants me toe¡± Zaden said low. With that, 14 of them moved to Ozrain. Selena was next to


    Zaden. Composed walk as her hips sway slightly to the sides, rosy round lips slightly apart, creased


    forehead, a pair of eyes to die for, skin powdery soft and smooth like a baby. Vivid to Epsilon''s sight as


    they approach closer and closer to him. He wanted her more than any woman he had before, despite


    another one waiting for him in the dungeon below. Unconsciously, his blood pumped a tad faster.


    Zaden came and stood behind Ozrain, ready to defend him. Sensing his presence behind him, Ozrain


    started talking, not even bother to look at Zaden


    ¡°Can you repeat what you said to him?¡± a muffled chuckle rosed among the crowd and Zaden didn''t


    exactly understand what was happening.


    With a cocky look, Epsilon began ¡°I am an ordinary alpha, he is a Samrat. It won''t be a fair fight but I''m


    willing to trade. This kingdom for that girl¡± he pointed his fingers with a sharp eye at Selena, making her


    wide eye and flinched back slightly. Zaden''s anger went from 0 to 100 within the next second. He


    practically pounced to Epsilon and grabbed his cor


    ¡°You fucking bastard!!! Go ahead, I dare you to touch her¡± Zaden was spitting venom from his mouth


    ¡°Who the hell are you?¡± Epsilon asked.


    ¡°You are right about that, Epsilon. He is her mate from hell and trust me when I say he will drag you by


    your cor back there if you dare to touch...¡± Ozrain stopped and clicked his tongue 3 times, shaking


    his head slightly with a smile


    ¡°Correction, even look at her. He is Alpha Zaden ck from Mountain Manuka¡± every wolf on Epsilon''s


    pack stiffened. A vibration of fear clearly seen through them, but it confused Selena. Why would


    members of a huge pack or more to n be intimidated by he, who is from a hidden pack? Zaden


    threw a punch directly on Epsilon''s face. In a snap, the whole situation became messy. Epsilon''s pack


    and Ozrain''s pack wanted to interfere, but was stopped by Ozrain


    ¡°He is a regr alpha, I believe it''s fair for them to fight for the alpha position¡± Ozrain is exceptionally


    calm although Zaden is getting beaten as well. Zaden is now sitting on top of Epsilon, throwing punch


    after punch when Epsilon''s hand caught a broken piece of cement statue. He flung it over Zaden''s


    head, breaking into pieces and effectively weakening his position. Epsilon then held Zaden''s neck and


    used his head to hit his nose. Zaden stood up from him, stumbling a bit as blood trickled down from his


    nose that he covered with his palm''s based and a cut is visible on his cheeks. His vison was getting


    blurry that he needed to shake his head to clear it, when he saw Epsilon approaching him fast.


    Fear took over Selena. She needs this to stop. The alpha order, that''s it. She need to give out the alpha


    order of Samrat. But how? She looked forward and Epsilon swung a broken cement statue to Zaden''s


    back. Her eye widened and a wave of anger came surged her. Normally, anger would fill ones heart but


    today, she felt anger at her heart and her whole body, every cell is zing. There it is, the ck vortex


    opening up but Selena didn''t get sucked in, she refused to be sucked in. Instead, another form of entity


    climbed out of the vortex. It is her wolfing through, standing with her to fight for Zaden, she can


    feel her all over her body. Bottom of her tummy felt extremely hard, the wolf had covered her baby with


    a solid wall of protection. A new found confidence that she can do anything emerged. With that, she


    closed her eye, repeated to herself


    ¡®STOP¡¯


    ¡®STOP¡¯


    Selena opened her eye, darted sharp at Epsilons hand that was about to throw a punch at Zaden and


    her inner voice projected from her heart with undeniable power, a superior dominance, sure to shrink


    anyone at their spot.


    ¡®STOP!!!¡¯


    A mind link boomed, freezing everyone at their feet, darting their eye to one direction. Selena stood


    with a fierce eye and a heaving chest, her fist by her side. Her eye swirling like a tornado of ck and


    grey. Epsilon froze at his stance. There was a brief silence before Epsilon let out a chuckle


    ¡°You found your child?!?!!!¡± he eximed, unable to believe himself. He looked at Ozrain.


    ¡°You actually managed to find her? Wow, I am impressed. No wonder why she is so beautiful in her


    own way. She is a Samrat¡± Epsilon said calmly or even slightly happy. Selena walked pass him to


    Zaden, cupping his face in her palms


    ¡°Zaden...Are you ok?¡± she whispered. Zaden who was holding back his bleeding nose with his thumb,


    leaning on to a wall, spat out a mouthful of blood to the side


    ¡°Ya, I''m fine¡± he said low. Selena looked at the floor where Zaden''s blood just spattered. She then


    looked back at Zaden


    ¡°Really?¡± she asked back, anxiety hitting her high. Zaden looked at her face, her eye is ck. Her wolf


    is out but doesn''t sound anything like her. It can only mean one thing, Selena had controlled her wolf.


    He let out a chuckle


    ¡°Sure I am. You think this wuss can hurt me?¡± he threw a re at Epsilon.


    ¡°HEY!!!¡± hey refuted back, walking straight up to Zaden in intention of hurting him


    ¡°Who are you calling a wuss? You should look at yourself before that¡± Epsilon is seeping anger as he


    stood in front of Zaden with Selena in the middle.


    ¡°You used a piece of cement to hit someone with no weapon. What do you call that? We call that wuss¡±


    Zaden is bumping against Selena''s back


    ¡°You piece of shit¡± Epsilon stretched his hands to grab Zaden but Selena swatted it away


    ¡°ENOUGH!!!¡± Epsilon looked down at her pitch ck, fierce eye and he is excited. Images of


    dominating her, popped up in his head as a smirk crept up his lips


    ¡°Epsilon, Alpha Zaden will fight you for this kingdom, do you ept it?¡± she asked sternly


    ¡°Anything for you...¡±Epsilon said low, triggering nausea in Selena.


    ¡°Then I propose a fair fight. We have been travelling for thest 10 hours, haven''t bathed, haven''t slept


    and haven''t eaten anything yet. My pack need their rest before a fair fight ¡° she said


    ¡°Baby, no...¡± Selena threw a re at Zaden for refuting and he snapped his head away, pursed lip and


    pushed his hair back in frustration. Epsilon is looking straight at Selena, not able to move his eye away.


    ¡°Fine...I will wait, you are definitely worth the wait. Tomorrow at 6pm, sparing ground of Samrat


    Kingdom¡± he announced


    ¡°Maximus, I need you to take care of her, anything that she needs or wants to be gratified at any cost,


    understoodd?¡± he ordered Maximus, before turning to Selena. His eye scanned her from top to bottom


    and back to her eye. His eye darkened.


    ¡°See you soon...¡± he said as he walked away

 CHAPTER 50

    CHAPTER 50


    Maximus had arranged a cabin in the woods nearby. It is his own and 7 of them stayed cramped in the


    small cabin. Another 8 have their own house here, in the ind itself. They left their family years ago to


    apany Ozrain, his loyal followers, so to say. 7 of them were all scattered around living hall. It is


    small, it is made out of wood, but cozy enough to be called home. Selena was standing in between


    Zaden''s legs, attending to his wounds while he sat on a chair, his thumb carelessly stroking her waist.


    His eye never left Selena. She carefully wiped the cuts on his face and applied some analgesic cream


    on it, not that he requires them and he spare no time in informing her that till she was done.


    ¡°You know, it would heal by itself in no time¡± he said low, earning a scowl from Selena. She pressed


    hard the cut on his cheeks with her index finger, making him hiss


    N?velDrama.Org: owner of this content.


    ¡°It still hurts, doesn''t it?¡± oh ya, she is angry, both at Zaden and Ozrain. She turned her head to look at


    Ozrain and he immediately dropped his head, pretending to y with his phone


    ¡°And I belief you are discussing world peace with Hitler now, via that phone, am I right?¡± Ozrain silently


    slipped his phone on a table next to him and kept his eye sight on the floor.


    ¡°Look at you two!!! Rushing into action, driven by emotions. Please, use your brain before you go


    budding head with Epsilon!!!¡± she is now in the middle of the room, which is just a few feets away from


    others, exhaling in disappointment. She rubbed her forehead with the fingers, thinking what they can do


    to fix this situation. Then suddenly, snapped up her head, scowling at everyone


    ¡°Well??? Anyone has any idea to chip in?¡± everyone was looking at Zaden, hoping for a breakthrough.


    ¡°What???Why are you looking at me like that for? If she didn''t interfere, I would have finished him


    earlier itself¡± he eximed


    ¡°Oh really??? He picked up a broken statue and hit your head. Where were your eyes, alpha?¡±


    defeated, Zaden shrunk back into his chair. Selena was really worried and her forehead creased and


    eyes started glistening. She crashed on a wooden chair, opposite Ozrain. She didn''t make a sound


    after that. Ozrain felt guilty, he had to calm her down


    ¡°Look, my angel. Zaden here is much more capable to defeat Epsilon. I know that, I had heard about


    him in other packs that I have visited.¡± Ozrain cocked his eyebrow at Zaden and he dropped his head in


    embarrassment.


    ¡°And he has a valid reason to fight, you!!! I understand how much he loves you, I had seen it in his


    eyes. You can''t stand even me, interacting close to her, do you?¡± his question is for Zaden and he


    stooped even lower than before, being caught of guard. Selena noticed that Ozrain knows something


    that she doesn''t. She rolled her tongue against her inner cheeks before returning to the current issue


    ¡°But he is not focused. Maybe, locking me up in Epsilon''s dungeon would do better job...¡± now


    everyone stirred ufortably at her mumbling words. Zaden, who is now slightly troubled, stood up


    quickly, pulled her off her chair.


    ¡°Nobody is going to touch you, you hear me? And yes, you are right. I didn''t focus on what was in front


    of me, I was tired and tomorrow would do better, I promise¡± her neck is now in his palms, thumbs


    propping her chin up. Her eye is still filled with worries but she pushed herself to nod at Zaden''s


    statement.


    ¡°Ok, you need to shift and I need a bath. Wait here for me, ok¡± he kissed her forehead gently before


    leaving her for a bath. She craned her neck, making sure he is out of the sight before crossing her legs,


    and diverted her attention to Ozrain.


    ¡°What did he do?¡± she asked with suspicious scowl. Ozrain swallowed hard before looking back at the


    leader''s pack. They shook head indicating ¡®no¡¯. Ozrain sighed out


    ¡°Zaden is a well-respected alpha in every pack that I have visited. I have heard about him but this is the


    first time I''m seeing him. Contrary to what I have heard, he kneeled down for a girl the very first time I


    meet him¡± Ozrain scoffed


    ¡°He single handedly pulled his pack out of darkness, gave them hope that nothing spiteful is going to


    happen to them. He protected them, yes, just like all the other alpha''s before him. But he also brought


    them out of the mountains, gave them the option to have education and make an earning outside of


    Mountain Manuka, when no other alpha even attempted that. They lived a basic life before him, limited


    food, annual clothing and wooden huts. Now they have changed drastically. Still, the pack is always


    prepared to fight, with their 3 tier vige system. Oddly enough, instead on focusing on saving


    youngsters, he choose to save the elders. Experience speaks louder than words¡± Ozrain chuckled


    ¡°But one vent, put him on the map. He went hunting, with his leader''s pack¡± he looked at Make and


    others.


    ¡°They hunted down all the rogues in their district, piles them up in dungeon at Elderly Vige. Tied them


    up in silver chain¡± Selena''s eye widened and her back straightened


    ¡°How many were there?¡± Ozrain asked Orion and he replied ¡°38¡± in a low manner


    ¡°Aaa...38, impressive!!!¡± Ozrain nodded


    ¡°What happened to them?¡± Selena is getting curious.


    ¡°They are all dead. Not before Zaden tortured them with silver knifes and silver spine embedded whips,


    wolfsbane on drip dose and much more¡± he paused


    ¡°What is wolfsbane?¡± Selena asked to Make. A deep crease never faded down from her forehead.


    ¡°It''s a juice from a purple flower, very poisonous to werewolf, it could kill us. Every drop slides down


    throat unnoticed but when they hit stomach, they will burn your mucousyer, forming cavity for the


    stomach content to spill into a person''s body. Eventually, mixing with your blood and you know the rest¡±


    she dropped her head down in guilt. Selena opened her mouth slightly with both her eyebrows cocked


    up. She forgot to breath


    ¡°And when administered intravenously little by little...well...use your own imagination¡± Xavier added.


    Selena is really terrified right now. This group of people that look so friendly and caring to her has done


    something so sadistic to 38 rogues


    ¡°Then, when the rogues were weak enough to not recover their previous wound, they dragged them all


    into open space,yered woods around them and set them on fire¡± Selena''s back has now hit chair and


    her eye and mouth is even wider,to its fullest.


    ¡°All because of one rogue...we didn''t know who it was but he shot...he shot my mate¡± Orion said with


    his eye on the floor


    ¡°I was inefficient, it has already been 20 minutes after she got shot. She was holding onto herst


    breath, so that she could give me onest good bye kiss... she left me...just like that...alone¡± Orion


    continued with tears welled up in his eye. Now, Selena understood, it happened after his mate, She


    had died. She stood up slowly, still with a frowned and terrified eye, she walked up to him. He was


    sitting on another wooden chair across the room. His elbows are on his knee and his head is tilted way


    down, not showing others his face and emotion. Selena moved closer and closer, and his clutched


    hands split open to make way for her. She slide her fingers to the back of Orion''s hair and pulled him


    gently closer to her stomach, breaking down a wall that he had built around him, called the ego. Orion


    hugged Selena by her waist and let out a painful cry, muffled to her body.


    ¡°She left me, Selena...the woman I loved so dearly...the one that gave me her virginity...the one that


    supported me in every slip...who shared all my joy...she is gone, right on myp and in front of my


    eye...I saw her eyes losing its life, turning to frozen ice. And she took my baby with her...she left me


    orphan Selena...¡± Selena felt a choke in her throat.She squeeze shut her eye, letting down a drop of


    tears from her left eye. One of her palms has find its way to cover her mouth, not revealing her crushed


    state right now. She didn''t try to calm him down or absorb his pain. It''s time to let it all out. He lost his


    love and finally learned to love another woman, only to be rejected again. It must have been way


    harder than what Selena could imagine. Did she do something to seduce him? Is it her fault that he fell


    for her? Would he had been better if she didn''t show up? The train thought is wrecking mess within


    Selena as tears started rolling more and more down her cheeks. A warm arm snaked in front of her,


    shoulder to shoulder. There is no need to look, Zaden''s scent and warmth is well embedded in her


    heart. He gave a deep kiss on the back of her head. Another hand came forth to wipe her tears. Ozrain


    is standing behind him. She is born with the ability to calm others around her but when she needs a


    dose for herself, Zaden is the answer. Her head leaned onto his chest. Zaden hunted and killed all the


    rogues in Mountain Manuka district for his beta, instead of letting him face his loss by himself. It doesn''t


    sound so wrong now. She wipes away any stray tears and soon Orion''s cry also stifled. Strangely


    enough, he pressed his head deeper against Selena.


    ¡°Wait...¡± Orion said low, puzzling Selena and Zaden


    ¡°Wait...that''s the baby!!!¡± Orion eximed and Make, Xavier and Sitka rushed to him, kneeling down


    in front of Selena.


    ¡°Its really him...You really have a baby in there!!!¡± Orion''s tears had drastically changed to happiness.


    ¡°I told you¡± Selena looked over her shoulder, wiggling her eyebrow at Zaden because Orion also thinks


    it''s a boy.


    ¡°Move¡± Make pushed him away and ced her ears on Selena stomach. Selena couldn''t help but


    laugh at their behavior. Their alpha''s baby, their childhood friend''s baby, what a wonderful gift...Selena


    gently hold on to Zaden''s arms as he looked down over Selena''s shoulder at his pack taking turn,


    listening to the baby''s heartbeat.

 CHAPTER 51

    CHAPTER 51


    Afterte lunch, Selena had to literally drag Zaden to bed. He was too worried about tomorrow''s fight


    that he refused to go to sleep.


    ¡°You can''t predict tomorrow, Zaden. What is bound to happen, will keep unravelling itself, in front of us.


    What you can do is get ready for that, prepare yourself. Now, you need to sleep well for that¡± It''s a


    small room with a queen size bed and a prominently,rge window. The bed had taken up almost all


    the space, leaving a mere 3 feet path to walk around. A storage bench with rack like structure on top,


    erect at a corner to organize cloths and shoes. Simple, modest, yet cozy andfy. Selena pushed


    him to the bed, bouncing him a little. He sat up and gently grab hold of Selena''s hip,ying a trail of


    kisses around her navel.


    ¡°Maybe we can do something else...to rx my mind first¡± he said biting his lips while his fingers slide


    in her waist band.


    ¡°Ah ah...Nothing doing...You are not fooling me with that school boy, flirty act of yours. Go to sleep¡± she


    pushed him back but he sat up again.


    ¡°At least put me down to sleep before you go¡± he said with a slight frown. Selena crossed her arms


    across her chest thinking ¡¯38 rogue???Really???¡¯. But after assessing, Zaden seem to be genuine and


    so she sighed and walked around the bed to the other side, sliding under the duvet next to Zaden.


    Zaden raised his arms up, swiftly taking off his t-shirt before snuggling into Selena''s chest. She is a


    very small figure, yet he fits perfectly into her body, like two piece of Lego blocks. His warmth radiates


    across her body,forting her in its own way. Little did she know, she does the same to him. Every


    time he moves, even a little, his trimmed beard grazes across her skin and tickles her


    ¡°Zaden...stop moving...¡±she said in her low voice, which in a way, resembles her wolf. A smirk felt


    across her chest as Zaden snuggles his nose into her throat.


    ¡°You smell wonderful...like jasmine with a hint of orange and mint¡± he kissed her throat


    ¡°Really???¡± she is amused, never ever had any told her how she smells like and Zaden nodded


    ¡°You smell nice too...like vani with a hint of orange and mint¡± he looked up, not losing skin contact.


    ¡°Really???Others have told me I smell orange and mint but not vani. That must be just for you


    then...¡± his fingers are now caressing her waist, Selenabing his hair with her fingers.


    ¡°That vani is the first to hit me back at Mountain Manuka foot, in my tent. Can I ask you something?¡±


    she frowned


    ¡°Have you ever ran out of questions?¡± he grinned against her chest, eyes closed. Selena pped his


    cheeks yfully before returning to his hair.


    ¡°When did you know that I am your mate?¡± Selena asked softly


    ¡°At the Mountain Manuka foot, before we took you to pack for the first time...¡± he replied with the same


    softness


    ¡°But you left me at my dad''s house after that¡± Selena said and he nodded


    ¡°That''s supposed to be painful and possibly fatal, right? Why did you do that even after knowing our


    mate bond?¡± a hint of concern in Selena''s voice


    ¡°I couldn''t force you into loving me, baby girl...yes, I would be happy with you but I need you to be


    happy as well...between these two, the second option stood out more to me...¡± Zaden


    ¡°Even if it means you dying?¡± Selena


    ¡°Even if it means me dying...¡± Zaden nodded gently. Her finger stopped moving, she bit her lower lips in


    agitation. Zaden frowned at the sudden change and looked up at Selena. Her face has turned pale


    ¡°What?¡± he asked low. She shook her head as she swallowed her saliva. Zaden felt something is


    wrong, terribly wrong. He climbed up to her face level, cupped her cheeks


    ¡°Baby, what is wrong? Does it hurt somewhere? Is it the baby? Tell me...¡± Zaden demanded but in a


    soft manner and she looked into his eye. Her red eye is glistening with tears as she nodded yes to


    Zaden


    ¡°Where? ¡° he took a quick scan over her body, just in case he is squeezing her somewhere. She


    grabbed his hands and dragged it down her neck, resting in between her chest.


    ¡°Here¡±


    Zaden''s eye darted up to her eye, as her heart beats against his palm. He froze for a second as his eye


    connects with her soul. A gentle smile carved her lips. He leaned with tilted head, sucking her lower lips


    gently into a pull.


    ¡°You just told me ¡®you love me¡¯ without being asked¡± he smiled when he let go


    ¡°No I didn''t¡± she frowned. He grabbed her face into his palms again and kissed her.


    ¡°Yes, you did¡±


    ¡°No. I didn''t¡± he kissed her again, a little bit passionate as his breathing spiked


    ¡°Yes, you did...you want your Zaden¡± he said with a little sarcastic smile


    ¡°No, I don''t, go to sleep¡± she pulled his hands off her face. She can sense where this is going.


    ¡°Yes, you do...¡± his voice went to a sudden husky as he kissed her again, heating up the situation even


    more.


    ¡°Hmm hmm¡± she shook her head, not breaking the kiss and idently pulling her own lips in the act.


    ¡°You do...¡±he mumbled with her lips still between his teeth.


    ¡°NO Inky Pinky Ponky with a baby inside her!!!¡± Make''s voice came with a warning from outside the


    door sending both of them to a little jolt before giggling.


    Warmth, nice smell and rxing touch. Abination that sure to knock you down and it did put Zaden


    to sleep. Selena had slept in the car earlier that she isn''t sleepy right now. She slipped from him,


    cing him gently on a pillow. The cabin is built raised above ground with 4 poles supporting. A small


    stairs is built at the front, to facilitate entering and exiting. Selena stood at the front porch, just above


    the stairs, looking around the vicinity. The sun painting ombre orange across the horizon, the


    temperature is noticeably lower with the smell of sea salt mildly swept through the air. It is a peaceful


    ce to live if only, the people governing it has the same nature in them. Selena let out a breath of


    frustration and lifted her feet to climb down the stairs when a voice came from behind


    ¡°Watch the stairs¡± Make from the other corner of the house. Selena pursed her lips in annoyance as


    she rolled her eyes. Selena being Selena, decided to irritate Make a little bit more and jumped down


    the stairs, all at once andnding perfectly on her feet. A heavy nking sound came from inside the


    house as Make ran to the front porch. Seeing Selena with a smug smile, she scowled angrily at her


    but Selena thrust her hands into her jacket pocket and walked away, intending to explore the ce


    ¡°I will take care of her¡± Ozrain tapped Make''s shoulder as he climbed down the stair, following


    Selena.


    ¡°You are not sleepy?¡± Ozrain asked which is out of nowhere for Selena and she smiled once she


    detected the source of voice.


    ¡°No..I don''t know why¡± Selena, casually


    ¡°Come, let me show you something¡± he ced his palm gently on her back as he guided her to the left,


    heading behind the cabin. A graceful garden, filled with daisies, tulips and roses unveiled itself. AN?velDrama.Org: owner of this content.


    weeping willow which stood at the edges were far more gigantic then any that she has seen so far in


    the city. Stray rabbits were jumping here and there. She scanned the ce with awe and a wide eye.


    ¡°Come¡± Ozrain guided further into the backyard garden. A wooden nk with 2 ropes on the side, an


    old day''s swing, hung from one of the willow trees. Selena didn''t think much, she sat on the swing,


    letting her body weight naturally swing her, very slow as she enjoyed the rabbit ying. Ozrain came


    and stand behind her, started pushing her gently. Orion who was passing by saw them from a curb of


    the cabin. He smiled before walking away.


    Ozrain took this opportunity to know her better. He asked a lot about her life back in city, from her


    current family to her grandmother. Everything was answered with a clipped sentence, blinding him with


    uncertainty


    ¡°What did you study, angel?¡± Ozrain


    ¡°Marine biology¡± Selena


    ¡°So, I assume you like the sea then? I have visited Marina Trench once¡± Ozrain


    ¡°Oh really?¡± Selena


    ¡°Ya, but just the surface. Didn''t dive in or anything¡± Ozrain


    ¡°Obviously...¡± Selena with a smile.


    This sort of small answers went on for some time, followed by a long pause. Thudding of Ozrain''s palm


    to push swing nk echoed again and again


    ¡°Listen, my angel...I am really sorry for what happen to Daisy. I didn''t mean to...¡± Ozrain thought she


    was angry with him due to that incident.


    ¡°Oh, I have learned to forget that¡± Selena said low


    ¡°But you are still upset with me? You don''t seem to like or even tolerate me¡± Ozrain


    ¡°Well why would you say so?¡± Selena


    ¡°Talking to me isn''t your preference. I can tell¡± a short pause followed


    ¡°It''s...it''s just that...I don''t know how to address you...and its weird talking without any salutation. How


    do I call you? Ozrain? Grandpa?... you don''t look like a grandpa...¡± Selena said with a shrug at the end


    ¡°Oh...that''s the problem? ¡°He thought for a while, followed by a tongue clicking


    ¡°Maybe you can call me papa. Amethyst used to address me like that¡± he said


    ¡°Papa...I like that...¡± Selena smiled, looking at the grass. Something just clicked and her smile vanished


    ¡°Wait a minute. Are they raising these rabbits for food?¡± she turned to look at Ozrain and he chuckled


    ¡°No...It''s not going to fill us. Maybe a side dish¡± Ozrain said, and Selena''s eye widened


    ¡°Don''t worry, no rabbit''s meat in Samrat Kingdom anymore, ok?¡± Selena smiled again in glee


    ¡°There you are!!! You don''t go wondering around in a foreignnd, Selena¡± Make and her nagging.


    The swing time officially ended, and they headed up into the house where dinner take outs has already


    arrived. Selena winched at the thought of eating again since she is still full ofst meal. So, as a tidbit,


    Make gave her a bowl of prunes.


    ¡°Finish the whole bowl. I will make the baby super smart and cute¡± Make gave her a stern look and


    walked away


    ¡°But it is only 14 days old?!?! Does he have a brain to begin with?¡± Selena asked in dismay


    ¡°No arguments. Eat!!!¡± Make from the kitchen. Selena took a bite and before she could swallow it,


    she felt nauseas. She had to cover her mouth, in order to control herself. Ozrain and Orion was sitting


    next to her, craned their neck to check on Make and back to Selena. Selena gave them a sad frown


    asking for help. They quickly took the prune and started eating. Xavier and Sitka joined as well and


    within minutes, the prune was all gone. Their faces looks like they just swallowed shit when Make


    walked in again


    ¡°Done already? Good girl!!! Let me refill your bowl¡± Make extended her arm


    ¡°NO!!!¡± they all eximed together except for Selena and Make looked at them in puzzle.


    ¡°I mean, it''s time for dinner, she won''t have room for food if you refill the bowl¡± Sitka managed the


    situation. After about an hour, they went for dinner

 CHAPTER 52

    CHAPTER 52


    A dimly lit room with beige and gold baroque wallpaper. A customized, super king size royal bedframe


    laid in the middle. It was covered with red velvet cushion and crystal embellishments on headboard and


    foot, a silk beige bedsheets and fluffy pillows, finished with red velvet bed stool. Persian carpet in the


    end of bed, furniture to match the bed design, scattered around the edge of the room. A life size portrait


    of Queen Aira and King Epsilon hung on a wall. A few French windows around the room revealing view


    of the whole kingdom and part of the sea. Despite the luxury theme of the room, a sorrow loomed


    across it, as the upant stood in front of sea view window. Fragile figure of a woman-frosty white skin


    with a few aging line, light blue eye, straight white hair hit her hip and a light blue floor length dress. Her


    eyes gazed upon the falling sun, without blinking. Her calm and serene aura doesn''t implicate the pain


    in her heart. Her bedroom doorknob twist to open as her dreadful husband marched in. His eyes darted


    sharp at her, but she didn''t bother to spare a nce at his direction. He came to stand, next to her.


    ¡°You might have known by now. Ozrain is here¡± Queen Aira eyes fall to the floor


    ¡°And he has his grand daughter with him, Selena¡± a momentary silence forced a drop of tear to well up


    at the tip of Queen Aira''s lower eye lid.


    ¡°And she is just as stunning as Elisa. I want her, Aira¡± Queen Aira darted to Epsilon in disbelief. Haven''t


    he had enough she-wolves in the kingdom already?


    ¡°Her mate and I would be having a dual for alpha''s position tomorrow. I would be fighting ruthlessly


    against him, of course, kill him and Ozrain to get Selena. And You.Will.Not mess anything up. You


    know the consequences if you do. Understood?¡± he grabbed her cheeks between his fingers and


    squeezed hard, inflicting pain. She nodded gently, stifling the pain. Epsilon gazed at her with fury for a


    second before crashing her lips with his, bringing her forcefully to bed.


    ¡°I love you, Aira...when will you ever understand me?¡± heid kisses against her neck, some soft and


    some rough.


    ¡°When will you ever except me? I am the one who had truly loved you, not Ozrain. Is that my fault?¡± his


    eye was begging at Aira''s when she tried to get up. Epsilon held her hand tight.


    ¡°Listen to me!!! He had moved on despite all his losses. He has a daughter and a son-inw and soon,


    they will be building their own family. And here we are, still stuck in the past. I will destroy them just for


    you to be happy. I will do anything for a drop of your love. Why are you refusing to ept me?¡± he said


    bouncing between pleading and fury


    ¡°Because I don''t love you. I love him, Ozrain...¡± Aira, with a stern but cautious tone, igniting another


    array of anger within Epsilon. He forced her hand to hold his hair and started kissing her rough and with


    that, another non-consensual, sexual intercourse followed. Aira has always been the one. No matter


    how cruel and heartless Epsilon is, their time together has been his happiest moments. His most


    satisfying sexual rtionship, never failed to calm him down but that is about to change.


    Back in the cabin, Selena had just finished her dinner and paced slowly into the room, hoping to wake


    Zaden for dinner. He was still sleeping on his stomach, hugging a pillow. His face is slightly swollen


    from excessive sleep, hair messy and his shirtless upper body is warmer than usual. She stood next to


    him, head slightly tilted to side with a smile. She couldn''t and didn''t want to wake him up. Selena sat on


    the floor, crossed leg to the side with hands crossed t on the bed edge. Her chin is resting on her


    hands. She remained so, admiring Zaden for God knows how long before stretching one of her hand to


    comb away a stray hair on his forehead. He stirred mildly, then snoozed back to sleep. With a twinkle in


    her eye, she now wants to touch him more. She gently touched his lips, soft and warm at the moment,


    urging her for a little bit more. She leaned forward and pecked a kiss on to his lips, effectively stirring


    him out of the sleep. He opened his eye with great struggle, before focusing on Selena


    ¡°Good morning...¡± his voice is now gravelly and husky


    ¡°Its good night, actually¡± Selena said


    ¡°What time is it?¡± Zaden


    ¡°8.30pm¡± Selena said to which Zaden groaned. He turned around, shing his chest to Selena


    ¡°Were you taking advantage of me?¡± Zaden is now on his sides, head propped up by his elbow. Selena


    stretched her hand, drawing circles on his chest


    ¡°Maybe...¡± Zaden pulled her gently toy down next to him before snuggling into her stomach


    ¡°You should have told me...I could have pretended to sleep for longer¡± Selena chuckled at his words


    Content provided by N?velDrama.Org.


    ¡°Go get a bath, have your dinner and then, maybe we can y Inky Pinky..¡± Zaden looked up in


    amusement


    ¡°Promise?¡± he said, which was replied with a smile and a nod, enough encouragement to send him into


    a bath and dinner.


    It was gettingte into the night. Selena had been shifting at her willtely but then, they still wanted to


    fulfill the 15days task. Now, being in a distantnd, they had no idea where to go. After consulting


    Ozrain, they came to know that there is a seashore, further down from rabbit garden. Zaden and


    Selena set foot to walk beyond the rabbit garden, in silence. Tomorrow is the day where the challenge


    will take ce, both of them was terrified, pooling up in them but tried their best not to show them to


    each other, in attempt to not weaken each other. Selena sensed some movement and to her Samrat, it


    immediately clicked. Those are by patrol packs and with little effort, she was able tomand them to


    clear the space. It was hard at first and almost didn''t work. She tried the same way she did with


    shifting, imagine it happening before actually saying it and it worked. No more hustling near them


    ¡°Zaden, I want to tell you something, but it might be unfair to Epsilon...¡± Selena said low, earning a


    re from Zaden


    ¡°You care about him?¡± the possessive Zaden peeped out, making Selena roll her eyes.


    ¡°It is not fair fighting ethics¡± Selena said


    ¡°Anything is fair in love and war...¡± Zaden smiled. After a pause


    ¡°He has a weak left torso. When you two were fighting this morning, I heard his mind voice. He was


    particrly careful about his left torso, watching each step and dipping back his left side every time you


    tried to hit him¡± Selena said


    ¡°Ok, now you are scary¡± with that Zaden walked faster to front and Selena followed with a chuckle.


    Soon they arrived at the seashore, more like a cove with high rock on both sides.


    Back in the mansion, Epsilon just had an intense moment with Aira, sleeping next to her. Normally, Aira


    would be the one to satisfy him sexually, but today was different. He still wanted more even when he


    was done with Aira and dreams hunt him down. A room filled with nothing but red velvet, like chilly red


    and Selena wasying on her stomach on the bed. A piece of red velvet duvet pulled till her armpit. Her


    hair fanned to one side, and she waspletely naked. Epsilon''s eye moved from bottom to up. Her


    legs exposed under a red nt line till calf high, one crossed on top of the other. Her white sole, like a


    baby''s feet. Epsilon bend down at her feet to kiss the sole, as soft as cotton brushing against his lips.


    She twitched and pulled her feet inwards at his gesture, making him chuckle. He then moved upwards,


    landing another kiss on her, presumably, knees but it was on the surface of the red velvet. He then


    moved to her thighs...her butt cheek...her waist...a few on her spine... before finally meeting her actual


    skin, on her shoulder. She shuddered. He is notying on top of her but his breath hit her back, right


    below her neck. His fingernails grazed from her shoulder till her hand, grabbing them and lifting it up to


    his lips,ying another loveable soft kiss on the back of her hand. She winched again. Her olive


    undertone fair skin, powdery soft and smooth, slightly flushed pink and her usually maizing eye is


    closed, a crease carved her forehead. Epsilon guided her hand to his copper brown hair with grey


    streaks, making her clutch on to his hair. He then buried his nose, ever so gently, into the nook of her


    neck. He inhaled her scent which to his brain portrayed as rose in his dreamworld. His wolf tattoo


    flexed at the strong scent she is emitting, as an ecstasy that even strongest cocaine and marijuana


    can''t provide, hit him hard, numbing his brain into submission. He sucked and nibbled her neck which


    she responds with moan and lip biting. He is encouraged even more and turned her around as he


    continued exploring her front neck, enjoying every bit of what he gets. His hands are fondling with her


    plum breasts, making her explode with rays of moan, enough to make him cum. He was exceptionally


    gentle, something unusual to him. He copsed next to her. He stretched out an index finger to her


    temple and ran down, caressed her cheeks. Her eye snapped open, a pitch ck eye and an evil


    smirk. A terror surged him and he snapped out of his sleep. She did actually manage to make him cum,


    he is wet now


    ¡°Fuck¡± he cursed before getting out of his bed to clean up and headed to the windows for a puff of


    cigarette. A woman made him cum in dream, just a mere image of her did this to him when thousands


    of woman had suffered in his hand for the same effect. The spark between them and how she made his


    inner muscle clench is iparable to any woman including Aira.


    ¡°Wonder how she would taste in real...¡± he murmured to himself as his eye gazed out at the almost


    moonless night sky. Below the sky, 2 entities emerged from the woods, slipping away from his patrol


    team. It must be a Samrat''s work. He dashed out, not bothering to wear a shirt.

 CHAPTER 53

    CHAPTER 53


    ¡°Are you ready?¡± Zaden asked with excitement. It is not 12 midnight yet, they are going to shift by their


    own. She nodded with much hesitation.


    ¡°Ok, take off your clothes...¡± Zaden said and Selena''s eye darted around the ce, making sure no one


    or any owl staring at her. Little did she know, there is already a werewolf camouged in between tree


    branches observing their moves. She bit her lips, eyes gazed into Zaden''s. Her finger fiddled with her


    shirt button, undoing one by one. At the third button, her cleavage showed through and Zaden''s eye


    turned from calm to intense. Selena couldn''t look into them anymore as shy and timid spread through


    her tingling cheeks. She looked down as she continued unbuttoning. Epsilon can see her hand moving


    in front of her but only a part of her is visible to him. A line of her left side is visible, the rest hidden


    behind Zaden. Finally, her button all done and Zaden slipped his hand to her shoulders, grazing her


    shoulder as he pushed the white shirt off to the ground. A whiteced bra peeped through and Zaden is


    having hard time controlling himself. He leaned down for a kiss, his fingers in her hair as he moaned on


    top of his groan. He let go and she resumed to unbutton her jeans, sliding them down, revealing a


    whitece panties to both Zaden and Epsilon. Epsilons eye looked down at Selena, like a hungry wolf


    at its prey, grabbing a tree branch tight. Next, she took off her bra and panties, standing naked and


    smiling at Zaden. His eyes trailed from her top to bottom, admiring each and every curve along the


    way. She covered her chest and crotch with her hands


    ¡°Stop looking like that...¡± she eximed


    ¡°Its not like I haven''t seen them. I have even tasted them. They taste like honey...¡± he licked his lips,


    making her blush


    ¡°Zaden, stop¡± she whimpered. Zaden pulled her in for a kiss, shing teeth, sucking her tongue


    ferociously. He ced his palm at her tail bone and pushed her into him, rubbing his now erect


    manhood against her


    ¡°Well well well...what do we have here?¡± Selena mocked him with a smirk and he chuckled.


    ¡°Come on, shift...into my beautiful silver wolf, shimmering even in dark...¡± with his words, he drew a


    picture of Selena''s wolf into her mind. The minute she pictured it, her body started reacting, making


    necessary changes to amodate the wolf within her. Epsilon''s eye widened from desire to


    amusement. Her wolf is a splitting image of Ozrain, his former alpha. Zaden had removed his dress


    and is now naked in front of Selena. She moved away from him, circling a particr spot where the


    waves wash to shore, hitting her leg and returning to their unknown destination. She lowered herself


    down, crossing her front leg on the white sand. Zaden shifted into his wolf form and came to sit next to


    her. The heavy wind causing their fur to ripple. Zaden is quite joyous as she can shift now, like any


    other werewolf, on her wish. She might have shame of being naked for a little while, but that is fine to


    him. He wouldn''t want anyone looking at his naked mate, too. They spent the next few hours rolling in


    the sand, ying Inky Pinky, chasing each other around under Epsilon''s watchful eyes. Even Zaden''s


    wolf like to snuggle and lick her stomach.


    Zaden shifted back into wolf, dressed up, before grabbing Selena clothes. When he turned around, she


    had already shifted back, sitting on the sand with her knees bend to cover her front. Zadenid next to


    her with a gentle smile, on his sides but she was grinning wide like a child in candy store. His hands on


    her shoulders and her knees in front of his face


    ¡°What?¡± he brushed off sands from her hair with a chuckle


    ¡°I''m a werewolf...¡± she said


    ¡°Ah...finally, no ¡®what ifs¡¯ and scientific exnations...¡± now he is brushing off sand from her shoulders.


    She nodded enthusiastically


    ¡°It means we can mark each other, isn''t it?¡± she whispered


    ¡°Maybe we can wait until this is all over, just one more day...¡± Zaden is now caressing her cheeks


    ¡°Why?...You don''t want to mark me?¡± she asked. Doubts started to emerge. Maybe he would never


    mark her.


    ¡°Oh baby girl, believe me. I am dying here for that...but...¡± Zaden


    ¡°But what...¡± Selena tone reflects her worry. Zaden doesn''t want to say it out loud, it is too painful. If he


    dies tomorrow, it will be even harder for her to survive if they are marked. It will be like ripping her soul


    apart. He doesn''t want to do that to her, knowingly. He had already seen Orion going through that


    agony. He sighed out


    ¡°Just one more day baby...I want it to be in front of our pack. Don''t you want your dad and Aaron to be


    there too when we seal each other''s bond?¡± Selena silenced for a moment. She does want her father


    and brother to be there for, technically, her marriage. She sighed out in defeat, reaching at her cloths


    but Zaden pulled it even further away


    ¡°Just 5 more minutes...¡± he narrowed his eye in a plead and she smiled back at him, leaning forward to


    kiss him.


    After getting dressed, they walked back to cabin. Zaden has his hands around Selena''s shoulder as


    they talked.


    ¡°Do you have any idea for the baby''s name?¡± Zaden asked Selena, right when they were crossing


    Epsilon. He was way to focused on Selena.


    ¡°Yup...Hazel...¡± she said


    ¡°That''s a girl''s name!!! What happen to your baby boy?¡± Zaden asked with a slight exim


    ¡°Hmm...This is our only child since I am a Samrat, so I have decided to give you a girl...¡± she said,


    twirling with a lock of her hair


    ¡°You don''t decide that, Selena. What if it''s a boy, genius?¡± he asked with a chuckle


    This text is property of N?/velD/rama.Org.


    ¡°Then you get to name him...¡± their voice faded away in Epsilon''s ears. She is pregnant and this is


    news for them, for Aira and Epsilon.


    The cabin came to visible, just a few more minutes till they are back home. Zaden pulled Selena by her


    shoulder from right to left when he saw a putty hole in front of her. She gazed at him with a smirk. Did


    he really kill 38 rogues? Let''s test it out.


    ¡°Ouch!!!¡± she started jumping on one leg, pretending to be hurt.


    ¡°What happen?¡± without sparing a second, he bent down in front of her, grabbing her feet in his hands,


    inspecting it by caressing his thumb through her feet. Selena bit her lips with a smile.


    ¡°Nothing...Let''s go¡± Selena slipped her feet from his hand and stood straight, earning a re from


    Zaden


    ¡°What do you mean, let''s go? What is wrong with your feet?¡± Selena cruised past him, hopping with her


    feet. Zaden just realized he got pranked by that little thing. He stood up and jogged to her before


    grabbing her knee and carrying her bridal style


    ¡°You know what, no Inky Pinky for you today¡± he said sternly


    ¡°Oh,e on... nobody saw the great Alpha Zaden ck from Mountain Manuka kneeling in front of


    me,grabbing my foot!!!¡± they came to the front of cabin by now


    ¡°Oh God Zaden!!!Be careful with her¡± the same, nagging Make. Zaden rolled his eye at her and then


    proceed carrying Selena to their room for a round of soft, seductive, begging, sweaty Inky Pinky. At the


    end, Zaden fall on Selena''s chest. Droplets of sweat on his back and he is still panting heavy


    ¡°It won''t hurt the baby, right?¡± Zaden asked Selena.


    ¡°How should I know that. I thought you are the expert here¡± Selena eye widened and Zaden looked up


    at her with agitation


    ¡°How am I supposed to know? Are you suggesting I have impregnated many girls before?¡± Selena


    pouted and shook her head no, stirring another ray of chemical reaction within Zaden. He pulled her by


    neck, down to his lips, kissing her intensely as he explored her mouth, bit by bit as if this is their first


    time their kissing.


    ¡°After the baby is born, I will teach you more in depth about sex, ok? And make sure you cooperate¡±


    Selena frowned


    ¡°What else is there to learn?¡± she asked and with that the discussion continued, bedazzling the girl who


    was virgin 15 days ago.

 CHAPTER 54

    CHAPTER 54


    The morning that was not weed, bloomed across the horizon anyways. Selena sat on the edge of


    bed, naked and duvet pulled up to her chest. She used to waking up naked once in a while before this,


    but now, it seems to be a norm. Oddly, her face is dull, filled with heart ache and sorrow. She doesn''t


    know how long she has been sitting stoned, gazing empty upon the sunlight pouring through the


    window in her room. The whole house is quiet. Zaden is still sleeping behind her, hugging a pillow,


    probably thinking that it''s her. It hit her hard, this is the day that will actually change her life, leaving


    behind no choice. Well, climbing mountain Manuka would be the first life changing day but she was


    given the option to return to her old life. Samrat Kingdom wouldn''t give her that chance. She frowned


    when all of a sudden, a memory shed between her grey eyes. She flustered and struggled. Various


    images popped up in her mental window. Dried up single tree, screeching scream of a woman, a log, a


    wooden hut, rain piercing down in drops from the dark sky above, a sob, arge thorn and finally the


    sea. It was too rapid and none except for the sea looked familiar. She rubbed her temple in attempt to


    calm down. Her tummy began to harden up like the day before, hard like a rock. A warm palm


    embraced her shoulder, snapping her out of her momentary struggle


    ¡°Hey...are you feeling sick?¡± it is Zaden, concerned about her as he slides his hand to her forehead,


    checking her temperature.


    ¡°Nothing...I''m fine¡± Selena turned around to face Zaden, with a gentle smile that only radiates pain,


    written all over her face. Zaden sped the back of her neck, bringing it close to him, bumping his


    forehead with hers


    ¡°Don''t worry, ok? Everything will be fine...¡±he whispered


    ¡°Is that a promise?¡± Selena asked low and Zaden silenced to that. He really can''t promise that


    everything will be fine but he sure is prepared for the after math. Her eyes trailed down. It aches to see


    the little bubbly girl drop her head in sorrow. She shuffled into Zaden''s chest, pushing him back to bed


    in the process


    ¡°Can we stay like this for a while?¡± she whispered, and he nodded. She snuggled into him, hoping to


    freeze the moment and he hugged her across her shoulders. They don''t know how long they have


    been like that.


    ¡°We have business running in town, they are auto-pilot. Keeps generating money for your whole life.


    You don''t need to do much, dad will take care of it¡± Selena looked up with a frown as she swallowed


    her saliva. Hebed his finger through her hairline


    ¡°There is a safe box inmunal room, under the bar counter. Password is 094563, same as for all my


    credit and bank cards.¡± he continued


    ¡°And its Hazel ck, if it''s a girl and An ck if it''s a boy...¡± he whispered, and tears rolled down her


    cheeks.


    ¡°Don''t you dare¡± she said through her gritted teeth and pushed herself to sit


    ¡°Selena...¡± Zaden wanted to make sense to her but what he got in return is a p on his cheeks. In


    inhaled slowly, calming himself down.


    ¡°NO!!! Don''t you dare do that to me!!!¡± she shouted at him. Zaden is now sitting, duvet covering till his


    navel. He stretched his hands in attempt to hug her but she swats it away too.


    ¡°Don''t you dare do that to me, Zaden ck!!!¡± she shouted again as more and more tears rolled off.


    The door flung open as Orion and others rushed into the room, panicked. Selena snapped her head to


    them, revealing her tear streaming eye. Zaden sped the back of her head and pulled it toward him,


    burying her into his chest and she started crying even more.


    This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    ¡°Shu...It''s just a precautionary step. Just in case, ok? I''m sorry, I didn''t mean to hurt you...¡± heid a


    kiss on her hair. Orion softened and a clench felt in his heart. He understood the pain. Zaden even had


    him prepared for the worst. Orion guided everyone out. Selena let out all her depression on Zaden''s


    chest as he caressed the back of her head, trying to calm her down.


    It was somewhere around 2pm when a gentle knock came from the outside the room. Make opened


    the door. Zaden and Selena were still wrapped in their duvet, only now, Selena is coiled on Zaden''s


    lap, hands wrapped around his neck and he is partially leaned on the head board. Make sighed out


    and walked to them, sitting by the bed foot


    ¡°Selena...sweety..e on now...¡± Selena shook her head, refusing to let Zaden go, after all, it''s ¡®her


    Zaden¡¯, right?


    ¡°Selena..I understand its hard...but you need to eat...at least for the baby... He is our next alpha, he


    needs to have a strong foundation...¡± Selena remained silent for a minute


    ¡°Plus, it''s Alpha Zaden ck, from Mountain Manuka. Didn''t you hear his 38 rogue story, yesterday?¡±


    Make softly caressed Selena''s arms.


    ¡°Come on... lets get a bath, please...¡± Zaden said


    ¡°I have a bowl of prunes for you...¡± Make raised her eyebrow and said with anticipation. It made


    Selena huff out augh between her tears. Makeughed as well


    ¡°I will be there...¡± Selena said softly and Make left the room. They got bathed and headed out of the


    room for lunch.


    Hours roll by like minutes and there wasn''t enough time to be spent between Zaden and Selena, there


    will never be enough time for the two of them, thou. It is now 5.30pm and they are getting ready to


    leave to the sparing ground.


    ¡°Make, make sure she eats and sleeps on time. If she gets grumpy, you know what to do. The ice


    cream is in the refrigerator.¡± Zaden and Make exchanged a smile


    ¡°Wait, you are leaving us here?¡± Selena asked with a frown


    ¡°Of course, it is dangerous for you two...¡± Zaden said


    ¡°It is dangerous for you too, that isn''t stopping you. Please, papa...I want toe, I will go nuts sitting


    here. Not knowing what had happened there¡± Selena plead to Ozrain and he looked for approval from


    Zaden. It wasn''t part of the n, it will get messier and harder to split these 2 from the crowd if things


    doesn''t go well. But he also knows that you can''t refuse or change Selena''s decision. He sighed and


    stretched his arm out, signaling her toe to him and she immediately ran into his chest, he wrapped


    his arms around her shoulder. All the way to the sparing ground, he kept repeating orders to Selena


    ¡°If they seem even a little rebellious, I need you to run out of the ind. You understand?¡± Selena


    nodded.


    ¡°You and Make, stand in the middle of pack, understood?¡± she nodded, and it continued. They have


    finally reached the sparing ground. The whole ground was encircled with old and young pack members,


    thousands of them. It was rming to see so many werewolves at one spot and it reflected in Selena''s


    eye as it widens. Zaden exhaled before licking his lips and looking down at Selena


    ¡°And baby...¡± Selena looked up at him. He flexed his arms around her shoulder and pulling her close to


    him while another hand held her cheeks, he gave a kiss on her lips. A much needed token of


    remembrance, a deep, loveable kiss.


    ¡°I love you...¡± he whispered to her, and she nodded again with a worried eye. The others couldn''t ignore


    the agony between this 2, it effects even the new acquaintance,Ozrain''s pack.


    As they approached, the crowd in front silenced and parted away, providing clearance for Ozrain and


    his pack. A sparing ground that spreads to about 50 feet in diameter with wooden handrails marking its


    perimeter came to vision. In the middle of the circle, Epsilon sat in a chair, legs crossed and an evil


    smirk on his face. Selena''s stomach automatically hardened up, like rock.


    ¡°Wee...¡± he said as his eye focused on Selena in Zaden''s arm. He snapped his fingers and a wolf


    brought out a chair and ced it in front of Selena.


    ¡°Please, have a seat...¡± He then, waved his hand and a few she-wolfs with trays of drinks and


    choctes approached them with a warm smile.


    ¡°A wee drink...forgive me for serving you out here, my dear goddess. There is a whole feast being


    prepared specially for you in the mansion. We can indulge together once this whole crap is over...¡±


    clearly, he was talking only to Selena, earning a re from all other 14 members.


    ¡°A soft corner from you will ensure that nothing goes downhill when this is over¡± he smirked again. His


    words interpret as ¡®Drink or I will kill your mate if I win¡¯


    With that polite threat, Selena sat on the chair, crossed her leg, and grabbed a goblet with red juice.


    The whole pack followed her and grabbed a goblet, chuck it down. Selena looked into the goblet and


    her stomach began to churn. Her throat felt bitter and nausea hit her in the chest. She closed her eye


    and brought the goblet near to her mouth, tilt it up. Epsilon smiled, assuming she had taken the


    offering.


    ¡°So, shall we begin?¡± Epsilon said and Zaden and Orion walked forward. Zaden took off his shirt with


    eyes zing at Epsilon. Epsilon raised up from his chair and sped his hands together


    ¡°Well...lets set clear lines first. I am gambling my kingdom for Selena. If you win, you get to keep


    Selena and the kingdom. If I win, I get to keep Selena and the kingdom. No one, including my wolfs are


    allowed to use their special abilities during this fight, meaning Samrats are not to use theirmanding


    tone. If they do, I automatically win the fight. Simple, agreed?¡± he looked at Zaden and Zaden looked


    back at Ozrain. He nodded and so, Zaden nodded as well.


    ¡°Let''s begin then¡± right at that moment, a murmur evoked behind Epsilon and they parted making way


    to the delicate beautying through. Queen Aira, in white dress looking angelic, came stood behind


    Epsilon


    ¡°Ah... Aira!!! What a pleasant surprise. Aira, meet Selena...¡± Epsilon looked at Selena


    ¡°Selena, meet Aira...¡± Epsilon then walked back, gently grabbing Aira¡¯s hands and ced a gentle kiss


    on the back of her hand while she stood there like a lifeless statue, her eye focused on Ozrain. Epsilon


    who caught her eye, grabbed her cheeks harshly between his fingers and turned her to look at him


    ¡°Ah ah...we talked about this Aira. You are mine. Now, go wait for me inside the mansion. Thank you¡±


    with that, Aira slowly turned around, not willing to leave the ce but given no choice. She paced away


    slowly, asionally looking back at Ozrain with a longing eye.

 CHAPTER 55

    CHAPTER 55


    The sun had begun to set, spreading red with orange hue across the horizon. Epsilon looked back at


    Zaden and he walked into the middle of the ring, in a very calm manner. He is waiting for the opponent


    to attack, something that he learned from the silver wolf. Epsilon stood there for a minute studying


    Zaden but he gave nothing to him. Finally, Epsilon lurched on to Zaden. He dodged his first punch,


    followed by the next few. Finally, he caught Epsilon''s fist and twisted his hands back. Selena is


    watching every single move they make. Epsilon threw his head back with full force, hitting Zaden in his


    nose and Zaden let loose of Epsilon''s twisted hand. His eye went blurry for a second, providing a


    window for Epsilon as he began his ruthless assault. Hits after hits fell on Zaden, earning gasp from


    Selena as her breathing seized and her feet began to tremble. Zaden pushed himself up and threw a


    side kick whichnded directly on Epsilon''s face, breaking his nose as it started bleeding immediately.


    He then grabbed his hand, twist it, and snapped on Zaden''s shoulder, effectively fracturing his elbow. A


    groan erupted from Epsilon. Most of his pack member remained calm except for a specific type of


    werewolves. They looked not well groomed, teethes with ck cavities and eyes that are sullen and


    now red. Selena focused on these wolfs and she got a mind voice


    ¡®Any minute now. We will finish him the second king gives his order, even if he wins¡¯


    Content provided by N?velDrama.Org.


    Selena''s heart fell to her stomach. She turned to Ozrain


    ¡°Papa, they are going to kill Zaden even if Epsilon wins¡± she said worriedly to him


    ¡°What?¡± Ozrain shocked and she nodded.


    ¡°We need more people if that happens. Let me get Maximus¡± he tried to mind-link Maximus. The fight is


    getting fierce with Zaden making more damage. Ozrain focused to mind-link Maximus but he failed,


    again and again


    ¡°I can''t reach him¡± he finally said which confused them all. Exactly at that moment, Epsilon shifted to


    his wolf and bite Zaden''s feet. Zaden let out a soul wrecking scream. He fell to the ground, squirming in


    pain while the copper wolf in front of him didn''t let go of his leg. A smirk bloomed on Epsilon''s face.


    Selena and her packed waited with anxiousness, rising blood pressure by second


    ¡°Why isn''t he shifting?¡± Selena eximed to Orion. Orion stood there dumbfound with wide eye. All the


    memories of Zaden''s orders to bring Selena and Make away popped into his mind.


    ¡°Holy shit!!!Why isn''t he shifting?¡± Selena is now screaming, grabbing Orion''s sleeve in her fist. The


    next thing they know, all the weird werewolves from the background shifted to wolfs and jumped into


    the ring


    ¡°OH MY GOD!!! Papa do something!!!¡± Selena is trembling in between them. Epsilon let go of Zaden''s


    feet andtched on his neck. Zaden grabbed his snout trying his best not to let Epsilon crush his neck.


    Selena and her pack ran towards the ring, all the while the pack tried to shift but failed to do so. They


    couldn''t figure out why.


    ¡°ZADEN!!!¡± Selena is screaming at him, tears stream down her cheeks while her hand held tight to


    wooden railing.


    ¡°The juice!!! That''s it. It must have seized our wolfs¡± Ozrain said in surprise and Selena turned behind


    to look at him


    ¡°It makes sense. That why we can''t shift. That means, Zaden...¡± Xavier eye widened even more and he


    couldn''t bare his own thoughts. Everyone snapped their head to Zaden. He is loosing his grip on the


    wolf''s snout as Epsilon''s teeth grazed his neck and he began bleeding. Out of nowhere, a silver mass


    of fur, hit Epsilon''s body on his left. He let go of Zaden''s neck as a reflex and rolled away from them. It


    is Selena, she shifted and stood in front of Zaden. She looked at Ozrain and winked. She didn''t drink


    the juice. She tried to but because she got nauseas, she slipped the juice to the ground, pretending to


    empty out the goblet. The usual cunning, smart and fast Selena.


    Epsilon pushed himself to stand. He lurched to attack Selena


    ¡°Quick, empty your stomachs¡± Ozrain ordered and Selena''s pack ran as fast as they can to the nearby


    trees and bushes, fingering their throat and expelling their stomach content.


    Selena threw her paws with full force to the left side of Epsilon, smashing him to the ground and a loud


    growl erupted from him. Selena turned back to Zaden, who is still in pain. She licked his wound on the


    neck, before snuggling to his neck, cooing with love. She then straightened up, put one foot over his


    stomach and pressed gently, again and again. Within seconds, Zaden stomach flipped and he expelled


    all its content to the ground. He sat up, wiping his mouth. His eyes meet Selena''s eyes as a drop of


    tear rolled down hers. He quickly wiped that tear drop, cing his forehead on hers. An exchange of


    love between a magnificent beast and a perfect example of man.


    The rest of Samrat''s kingdom is getting more and more raged. He yed unfair by disabling the


    original Samrats. Within the next second, Zaden shifted into his ck wolf. Standing in front of Selena,


    a tad bigger than her and all other pack members had joined them. All 15 stood there magnificently,


    ready and energized to fight. Epsilon also had gained stability and is now standing there with his loyal


    pack.


    ¡°Rogues...these are rogues¡± Sitka said through mind-link


    ¡°What are they doing here, in a pack?¡± Make asked


    ¡°We are about to find out. Make, bring Selena away¡± Zaden ordered and Make took a few steps


    ¡°No!!! You die, I die. We are here because of me and we fight together¡± Selena


    ¡°Selena...¡± Zaden and his soft voice


    ¡°No arguments alpha. Either we fight and win or we argue and die. Your choice¡± Zaden looked sharp at


    the bossy silver wolf. She stares back. Finally, giving up, Zaden pulled her ears as a small punishment


    and let go before taking attack stance. Selena shook her head to knock off the slight sting before


    gathering herself to attack as well.


    ¡°Epsilon is mine. You guys enjoy the rest¡± Zaden lurched front, hitting hard with his paw on Epsilon''s


    face. Selena can feel her stomach being solid hard and a tingle crept up her heart. Her wolf is excited


    to fight. A brown wolf, and dirt fur coatunched towards Selena, she ducked down and the wolf flew


    above her andnded further from her. Zaden and the leader''s pack seem to be merciless, killing each


    rogue within minutes of contact. More and more rogues entered the sparing ring as dirt sprang up with


    the air around them, blurring vision. Selena on the contrary, either dodged or attacked for defense. She


    didn''t actual attempt to kill anyone and the pack noticed this. The whole fight carried on for about 38


    minutes before the rogues finally gave up and started leaving their leader, one by one sprinting off


    Samrat Kingdom. There was nearly 15 wolf to be finished off when Zaden gave out a mind-link.


    ¡®Orion, I need an alive rogue¡¯


    Orion snapped his head at Zaden. His wolf frowned deep, before bending down to grab a rogue who


    was squirming in pain by his feet. He grabbed one of its hind leg and dragged it to Zaden while Zaden


    himself was holding another rogue in his mouth. Ozrain took over Epsilon who is now darn week from


    the nonstop assault of Alpha Zaden. Orion followed Zaden without any question and Zaden walked


    directly to Selena, dropping the rogues at her feet


    ¡®We haven''t thought you to hunt and kill, have we?¡¯ Zaden said and Selena stood there, with four legs


    and a wide eye


    ¡®Because it is something required to do by your wolf and you were never able to shift at your wish


    before this. Now, let''s begin with killing, shall we?¡¯ Zaden looked at Orion and now, he understood. He


    held a rogue''s leg while Zaden grabbed his neck. Slowly Zaden''s teeth sunk into the wolf''s skin, as


    Selena watched with terrified eyes. A snap came from under his mouth and soon the neck was


    dangling. They are werewolves and will be able to recover such a serious injury. So, Zaden snapped


    his head to the sides, slowly ripping the neck till it came apart, all as slow as possible for Selena to


    observe and learn. Zaden stood up with bloody mouth


    ¡®This is the easiest, mess-free way. Now, your turn¡¯ Zaden mind-link to Selena and she took a few steps


    back to run away.


    ¡®We fight together, don''t we¡¯ sensing her flight mode, Orion said and she seized her steps. Orion


    dragged another rogue and dropped him in front of Selena. The situation behind them is chaotic, yet


    here they stand teaching Selena life skills, werewolf life skill that is. With much hesitation, Selena bend


    down to grab his throat. His smell and taste are vomit evoking. She took a while fighting her nauseas


    when the wolf started gaining consciousness and fought back to release itself from her mouth.


    ¡®Just do it¡¯ Make from far away, fighting off another rogue. Selena gathered her will and pushed her


    jaws together, snapping his neck within seconds


    ¡®Is the ripping necessary? He looks pretty dead¡¯ she mind-linked Zaden and Orion and they nodded.


    She sighed out before cing a paw on the victim''s chest


    ¡®I am so sorry, whoever you are¡¯ crushing through the wolf''s bone, slicing through its muscle. A gust of


    blood indicated that she is there and she snapped her head to the sides a few times. Her mouth felt


    empty, that when she realized she had beheaded that rogue wolf who was alive few minutes ago. She


    spat out the little blood in her mouth. Zaden and Orion''s chest raised, proud of their Luna. Zaden paced


    to her, licking off the blood that had soiled her beautiful silver fur.


    ¡®Good girl!!! Now, what do you want to do with Epsilon?¡¯


    As if a switch was turned on, multiple images started popping into Selena''s mind to his question.


    ¡®I need him out of Samrat. Follow me¡¯ she walked away from the ring followed by leader''s pack and


    Ozrain. Ozrain''s pack finished the rest of the rogue with ease. Zaden dragged the week Epsilon by his


    feet, his body leaving behind a trail of blood and they walked through the Samrat''s Kingdom. Selena


    looked to her left and right throughout the walk. For no reason, the other pack members of Samrat


    followed them, mostly those who had been affected by his greed and his outrageous lust. Selena kept


    walking till she reached the outskirt of Samrat Kingdom, the spot where they stopped yesterday before


    entering Samrat, the spot that she felt dizzy on Ozrain''s shoulders. A familiar feeling raised within her,


    the panic attack symptom. Her heart beats faster, pumping blood more then she could handle. A bigger


    force is trying toe out. She kept walking into the forest, which felt like forever. After a few meters,


    the forest began thickening up. Closer and bigger trees knitted through the way. Selena''s feet began


    feeling week and she stumbled a bit, Orion rushed to her, kneeling and hoisting her up. Zaden took the


    lead and kept walking in front of her. He had a hunch that this ce is important. Far, far into the thick


    green wood, a clearing approached. The spot was glowing bright by itself even though no sun or moon


    is present currently. A single tree, dried with no leaves stood in the middle of the clearing. The closer


    they got there, tiny gold sparkle is visible in the air, lighting up the spot. Zaden dragged Epsilon till the


    dry tree and dropped him there. Selena is having more and more difficulties breathing, she leaned onto


    Orion''s body. Zaden paced to her other side, supporting her to walk forward. Something tells him that


    she should get there, to the dried tree. 2 wolfs with heads up and Selena in the middle with slumpy


    head stepped into the ring of gold sparkles. A low growl erupted from Selena.

 CHAPTER 56

    CHAPTER 56


    Zaden and Orion looked down besides them. The sparkle in the air tend to get attracted to Selena,


    adhering to her silver fur, creating a magical mixture of gold and silver. A vortex swirled within Selena,a


    powerful aura radiating from it. She tried to hold herself but as if no option is given, she got sucked into


    it, losing herself as Elisa Mitkoi surfaced. Zaden and Orion stepped back from her when they felt she is


    no more wobbly. Her head is still hung down but her feet seemed to have steadied itself. The silver wolf


    is now having a sheen of gold on her fur. A sneer carved her lips as her fang retreated further out. Her


    head slowly tilted up revealing thepletely ck eye, no white ball is visible. Pitch ck as the


    eclipse night, hiding more secrets than one could ever have thought. Selena is seeing the everything


    from Elisa''s point of view,somewhere from the back of her mind. Maximus, who has shifted to human


    form and now wearing a pair of sweatpants, ran to Zaden and handed over some clothing. They shifted


    and put on some sweatpants as well. Selena refused to shift back, confusing the others. Epsilon has


    also shifted back to his human form and naked, which didn''t budge Selena, even an inch. She slowly


    paced round and round him, in a circle, around the dried tree while Maximus is now tying Epsilon to the


    dried tree.

    ¡® You remember this spot?¡¯ a sweet but deep voice came into their mind-link and Epsilon let out a


    chuckle in between his suffering.


    ¡°Yes¡± he said out loud. His eyes than snapped at Ozrain, a smirk between his bleeding mouth


    appeared


    ¡°This is where we tied up Elisa¡± he said in an devilish, low tone. Ozrain felt a choke in his throat. Blood


    drained out of his head. The spot wasn''t that far from his territory, yet he was incapable of saving her,


    looking for her miles away, till the forest hut. He stumbled back a few steps when Zaden caught his


    arms.


    ¡®How did you know about me?¡¯ Elisa''s sweet voice came again


    ¡°We followed Ozrain one night, to your secret forest hut¡± he said, breathing heavy. He has difficulty


    holding up, his eye hooded.


    ¡®Why do you need to kill me? Why do you need to kill my innocent child?¡¯ Selena, again.


    ¡°Because...I loved Aira... my only love. I will do anything to keep her happy, just like Zaden would do


    anything to keep you happy. The birth of your child means Aira won''t have a child with Ozrain, since


    Samrat''s always gifted with one child. She wanted that so badly, hence I gave her that. Is it fair for her


    to yearn for a child from her mate? What have she done to deserve this? With you gone, she may fulfill


    her wish but my calction went wrong. I didn''t know you had another baby.¡± Epsilon spat out blood


    from his mouth to the ground next to him.


    ¡°If only I have known, I would-¡° Epsilon''s words cut off when a heavy pawnded on his face. Her anger


    suddenly red,thinking of how dare he to still threaten her child. After the hit, the silver wolf shed


    his face with her ws, leaving a few streaks of blood. Yet, she still isn''t satisfied. The burning pain in


    her chest demands more. She shed again and again and again, at any spot she can reach. His


    chest, shoulder and thighs are now bleeding. She let out a painful howl, standing in front of him. Before


    she could execute her next attack,without any notice, a rock flew from far, hitting his head. The silver


    wolf looked behind and a woman was standing there with fierce eye and streaming tears. Elisa wanted


    to kill him by herself, but this seems like a better idea. She paced back to Zaden, circles a particr


    spot, beforeying down with her head up, between Zaden and Orion.


    ¡®Take the log, over there and give it to the girl¡¯ Selena''s mind-link made Ozrain search around for a log.


    He found one nearby the tree itself. He walked to it, picked it up and retreated a few steps before some


    inner urge stopped him. He shouldn''t let him go just like that,not after what he did to his love. Ozrain


    turned back to Epsilon, with a log in his hand. He raised the log and threw his hand with full force,


    resulting in the lognding on Epsilon''s head. He screamed out loud with a groan. Ozrain repeated his


    hits on his shoulder and face, faster and faster than before. After a few while, he stopped.


    ¡°You don''t deserve to die that easily¡± he said to him and walked to that particr girl from crowd. She


    took the log and moved to Epsilon, hitting him with the best she could. Although he was in so much


    pain,he still pulled together a little strength to humiliate the girl.


    ¡°Ohe on!!! Is that the best you got? No wonder why I got bored with you. You have no grit¡± Epsilon


    spat out his words, raging the girl even more that her following hits were even fierce then before.


    Another woman strode over the first, with almost the same rage, snatched the log out of her hand.


    ¡°Oh you!!! I remember you. You are the one with sweet ass, aren''t you? Oh, my boys loved you so


    much¡± Epsilon keeps talking as if he is purposely provoking these girls, but why?


    The next girl hit him repeatedly on his head, making him scream in pain, just like she did in his


    dungeon. Images from past shed in front of Selena''s eye. Young Epsilon, 16 years old back then,


    hitting her pregnant belly with a log, again and again as she begged for mercy from him.


    ¡°Too bad you are pregnant or I would have had some fun with you before killing you¡± the young Epsilon


    laughed at her with a few more werewolves around him. The face of Amethyst that she had left with her


    parents shed in front of her, how the child was screaming in her grandparent''s arms when she left


    the house, heavy heartedly, looking back for onest time at her beloved daughter.


    Another older woman is now standing with a heap of rocks and the previous 2 girls parted away. Rocks


    after rocks flew to hit Epsilon, as his scream soothed Elisa a tad bit more with the every passing


    minute.


    ¡°Do you have to go? We can send you away, just like Amethyst¡± Elisa''s parents with tearful face, trying


    their best to change her decision


    ¡°No papa, I have been seeing many werewolves lurking around my huttely. I cannot run away from


    them, especially with Ozrain not returning home. I''m afraid you and brother John will also be hurt if they


    find me here.¡± Elisa''s face terrified.


    A heavy rock hit Epsilon''s cheek and a stter of blood immediately sprang out.


    ¡°No, son...please, hold on...Your papa wille. He has toe to save us¡± Elisa said to her pregnant


    belly, sensing her baby''s life slipping away. Lesser and lesser movement felt on her belly and the little


    movement she felt was week.


    Another rocknded on Epsilon''s manhood, making him scream evermore louder than before.


    Elisa''s baby hadpletely stopped moving and she started bleeding from her vagina. The blood


    smell attracted animals from surrounding. Rats and ants nibbling on her skin, leaving her to scream in


    pain every minute of the day.


    The vigers of all age and both gender is gathered in front of Epsilon, hitting him with rock, slippers,


    wood, metal or anything then can find. His hip is now covered with thing they threw and he is losing


    consciousness.


    Elisa can feel her live slipping away. Her eyes is blurry and she is too week to breath. A vague image of


    Epsilon walking towards her, made her open her eye a little but with strain.


    ¡°She is still alive?!?! How is that even possible?¡± One of the rogues asked


    ¡°Maybe she is waiting for Ozrain. He won''te, sweety. Here, maybe you can write a letter to him on


    your free time¡± Epsilon threw a thin wooden b at her. A set ofughter erupted before they left her


    again. Enduring rats bite finally paid off when it bites free the rope tied behind her. She is free but


    cannot move an inch. Her own blood is now poisonous, killing her with burning pain in her veins. She


    grabbed the wooden b that Epsilon threw at her before and found arge thorn to write down her


    last message to him. A rage, unexinable level of anger strikes her.


    The same anger is boiling in her now, after 200 years of waiting. She stood up in lightning fast,unch


    herself to Epsilon and grabbed his neck with her mouth, crushing every bone slowly between her jaw


    as his eyes widened, gasped caught his tongue and legs kicked violently against the ground. All the


    vigers moved back and enjoyed the show.


    A few more days went by when Epsilon came back to visit Elisa. She is now just a hideous looking


    corpse but little did they know, she still at the edge of death. He had just found out about Amethyst and


    he urgently needs to find her


    ¡°Carry her body¡± he said as his crude rogues carried Elisa over their shoulder to the seashore. Pitch


    ck eclipse night, perfect for hiding their crime. They climbed up a cliff and threw her into the sea. Her


    body and heartbeat slowly sunk deeper and deeper. A small snake like body wrapped around her,


    engulfing her little by little.


    She felt a mingled mass in between her jaw, she pulled it out, ripping apart Epsilon''s head with no


    mercy at all. She dropped it on the ground, gazed at it as serenity filled her soul. A peace that she has


    been searching for decades. Everything around her is muffled, she could only hear her own heartbeat,


    apanied with another tiny beat in her ears. She is hearing a baby''s heartbeat within her.


    ¡®You are safe...¡¯ she said to the baby. She had never felt such as relief, at peace as she slowly slipped


    into the darkening view. She was able to save the baby in her womb this time. She is not week. When


    the scale is even,she defeated Epsilon.


    Selena had passed out, alerting Zaden and the pack. They ran to her in panic


    ¡°Selena!!!¡± Zaden gently pped her cheeks. Her heartbeat is still good. They carried her and Ozrain


    made them bring her to the mansion, her rightful ce.

 CHAPTER 57

    CHAPTER 57


    A distant voice climbed into her ears as she stirred from her pitch-ck world, blinking to clear her


    vision. The first thing that came to vision was the intricate roman designed ster ceiling. Her shaky


    vision came to steady as it dawns on her that they are not in the cabin anymore. A knocking pain on


    her head made her hiss, bringing up a palm to put pressure on her head.


    ¡°Baby...¡± fingers caressed her cheeks and a familiar spark spread. She smiled knowing who is next to


    her and panned her face slowly to her left.


    ¡°Where are we?¡± Selena asked in a broken voice.


    ¡°At Samrat''s mansion...¡± he held her hand, wrapping his thumb around hers and bringing it close to his


    lips for a kiss


    ¡°Water please...¡± she said and Zaden bends slightly to grab a cup of water, letting it sip through her lips.


    ¡°What happen?¡± Selena asked after done drinking. Zaden ced a pillow on her back, propping her to


    sitting position while he exined what happen


    ¡°I think you cked out like how you use to during shifts. Elisa killed Epsilon. Ozrain brought us to his


    mansion and allocated us this lovely room. Queen Aira begged for his forgiveness. She said she was


    forced to reject him and-¡°


    ¡°Wait, Ozrain wasn''t the one who rejected the bond?¡± Selena asked in confusion and Zaden shook his


    head ¡®NO¡¯


    ¡°Apparently, it was Aira after being threatened by Epsilon. Ozrain forgave her. With Epsilon being dead,


    his mark on her is gone and so, now, Ozrain marked her and sealed their mate bond.¡± Zaden is back by


    her side, holding her hand near to his lips, kissing it between speaking.


    ¡°Wo...how long have I been out? Centuries?¡± Zaden let out a soft chuckle.


    ¡°Just a few hours but everything else happened so fast, so...now, they are digging a grave for Epsilon


    in Samrat Cemetry¡± he finished his briefing


    ¡°Wait, why is he being buried here? He is supposed to be thrown in the sea. Come on¡± Selena rushed


    to sit and a pang felt in her head. Blood rushed too fast.


    ¡°Easy, Selena. Why the sea?¡± Zaden asked Selena, who is now holding her head again


    ¡°Because that where they threw her almost dead body, feeding Goya with Elisa''s blood¡± she can feel


    another wave of dizziness approaching her fast. Apparently, she was watching as a third person of all


    the images yed in Elisa''s mind.


    ¡°Ok ok...I will get that done. Please, you go back to rest¡± Zaden pushed her gently by the shoulder to


    make hery back down


    ¡°I want toe too¡± she said and Zaden let out a sigh, which hit her face due to their close proximity.


    ¡°Fine...let me arrange things first, then I wille to get you¡± he tilted his head to the side,ying a


    gentle kiss on her lips.


    ¡°You did amazing today...¡± he said with his bronzy eyes piercing through her grey eye.


    ¡°I was thought well...¡± she said with her week yet husky voice and Zaden smiled at her.


    ¡°Be good...I wille back as soon as possible¡± he gave her another kiss before leaving her behind. 5-


    10 minutes after he left, Selena felt stabilized. She sat on the bed edge, observing the roman inspired,


    light blue and white room. It was done tastefully and Selena is impressed. She then gathered herself up


    and walked out of the room. She ended up in a corridor that is all red velvet and followed it to a stair,


    climbed down. At thest step of stairs, she saw an extravagant firece across the room.


    ¡°Sweety...you are awake?¡± It is Make. Selena smiled in return and she hugged her gently, before


    scanning Selena top to bottom. She smiled, satisfied with the view in front of her.


    ¡°Come...¡± Make grabbed Selena''s hand and guided her to their left, where a dining room, again


    done tastefully with Roman design but majorlyced in red velvet. At the end of 24 seater dining table,


    Ozrain and Aira were sitting, holding hands, and talking. Selena had never seen Ozrain smile like that,


    like a schoolboy with his crush, even though his white-trimmed beard gave away his actual age. They


    snapped their head at Selena once they noticed her.


    ¡°Oh, dear...¡± Aira had rushed to Selena and gave her a warm hug before holding her chin


    ¡°She looks lovely. I bet Elisa must have been really pretty...¡± she said as she guided her to sit next to


    Ozrain.


    ¡°Yes, she is, isn''t she? And thebination of Zaden and Selena growing in her tummy, should be


    much more dazzling¡± Ozrain said and Aira''s eye panned to her tummy and widened. For a moment,


    she froze not giving any reaction, puzzling all of them. Aira looked up


    ¡°Wonderful¡± a twinkle in the wide eye with a gentle smirk which is supposed to spell ¡®happy¡¯, but to


    Selena, it looked creepy and her stomach hardened for no reason. By now, she had learned that her


    tummy turns hard when she is in a dangerous circumstance but what is dangerous here? Maybe the


    baby is also creeped up at Aira.


    ¡°Well, you must be hungry. Sit down and let me get you something¡± she said and left to the kitchen.


    Selena sat next to Ozrain as Make excused herself to check on Zaden and Epsilon''s ¡®sea burial¡¯.


    ¡°Do you like what you see?¡± Ozrain was referring to the house


    ¡°It''s all...red¡± Ozrain let out a chuckle


    ¡°Yes, I noticed. It''s Aira''s favorite color. Epsilon must have loved her so much to go to this extend, the


    house and his life is all about Aira, wasn''t it?¡± Ozrain''s eye scanned around the room.


    ¡°How could I have missed it? My beta in love with my mate? I will never know...¡± he dropped his head


    down-looking at his hands, which are sped together on the dining table. Selena gently grabbed his


    hands


    ¡°It''s not your fault, papa...You are not supposed to govern ormand where love should blossom.


    That''s not how the design works. It never fails to kick you in the butt¡± Ozrainughed out loud at the


    comparison Selena had given


    ¡°Just like you with Zaden!!!¡± he said through hisughter


    ¡°Just like Zaden and me!!!¡± she repeated his sentence with a snap of head, reassuring her pain in the


    butt. Aira rushed in with a ss of juice.


    ¡°Here, prune juice¡± Selena eyes snapped wide at the huge ss of ck liquid


    ¡°It is said to be extremely beneficial to a pregnantdy¡± Selena ignored Aira when her wide eye


    snapped up at Ozrain


    ¡®I''m going to kill your mate!!!¡¯ she mind-linked Ozrain and he pursed his lips, suppressing hisughter.


    Aira walked out of there to get something for Ozrain. As soon as she left, Ozrain snatched the huge


    ss and gulped it down. It was pure concentration of prune, no sugar or water added, simply dreadful.


    Halfway through the ss, Zaden walked into them.


    ¡°Everything is done. Are you ready? What is wrong with him?¡± Zaden frowned at Ozrain who is in a


    hurry to gulp the remaining ss of juice


    ¡°Aarghhh. Who the hell associated prune and pregnancy? Let the fucker rot in hell¡± Ozrain cursed as


    soon as he emptied the ss. Selena giggled at Ozrain''s statement before they all walked out of the


    mansion, heading towards the cliff behind it. Zaden had carefully supported Selena to climb up the cliff.


    At the top, the rest of Zaden and Ozrain''s pack was waiting for her.


    ¡°Are you ready?¡± Orion asked softly to Selena. She looked down and there was a box, not a coffin but a


    box. 3 feet by 3 feet small box. How could a body have fitted into that, only God knows. Selena nodded


    and they gathered up next to her. She kneeled to push the box but clearly, it is way much heavier than


    she expected. After a few failed attempts, Zaden hoisted her up, held her waist from left, Orion from


    right, Ozrain holding her shoulders from behind. Thebination of men who loved her for who is she,


    supporting her through her rough path.


    ¡°Now, kick¡± Zaden said. She looked down and hesitated for a moment. She then stretched her feet,


    cing them on an edge of the box, and pushed it off. The box tumbled down the cliff, hitting a rock


    and splitting open. Mingled body of Epsilon tossed out of the box, into separate pieces of leg, hand,


    body and head. Selena gasped in horror as she hid her face in Zaden''s chest. He instinctively covered


    her face with his hand. She understands now how a full-grown man can fit in a box. Epsilon''s remaining


    crashed into the water below, soon to attract fishes and sea creatures for a feast. At the tip of the cliff, a


    breeze of peace swept through them.


    Ozrain finally felt at peace. He found his daughter, rejoined with his mate and the murderer of his love


    Elisa received the punishment he deserved. He is home, that he has longed for so long. It feels right


    and the weight in his chest is lift-off. His peace didn''tst long. Sharp pain felt in his stomach. He


    grabbed it with a groan and fell on his knee.


    ¡°PAPA!!!¡± Selena screamed and plopped down next to him. She carried his head and ced them on


    herp.


    ¡°What is wrong? What is happening, Zaden?¡± Zaden kneeled frozen next to her, unable toprehend


    what is happening, just like the rest of the pack. Aira came slowly pacing up the hill. Her eye widened in


    panic when she saw Ozrain on the rocks, head on Selena''sp. She picked up the pace and rushed to


    him


    ¡°What happened, darling?¡± tears started rolling down her cheeks.


    Ozrain unable to utter a single word. Every single nerve in his body is burning with pain, as if they are


    gradually filled up with hotva. He wanted to scream out but then his throat is constricted. He


    gradually loses his vision. As a marked mate, Aira also felt the same level of pain that her mate is


    feeling, only she didn''t go through any rapid organ damages like Ozrain is. In the next second, his


    veins protruding on his neck turned ck.


    ¡°Wolfsbane¡± Zaden whispered and everyone''s eye snapped at him. He had tortured and killed 38


    rogues by infusing them with wolfsbane, so naturally, he would know the trademark symptoms. ck


    venation is one of them, at a lethal level. Aira''s eye is now filled with fury as she fought to withstand her


    mate''s pain


    ¡°You didn''t drink the juice???¡± she said through gritted teeth, clutching her waist and her whole body


    trembling. It finally dawned on Selena and Zaden. Aira had ced wolfsbane in the raw prune juice,


    lethal level. The taste and smell of prune juice effectively covered up her act. It was intended for Selena


    but Ozrain drank it up.


    ¡°You bitch!!! Howe you have missed both my attempts?¡± Selena and others are puzzled now.


    ¡°If I can kill Elisa, I can kill you too. Arghh... you are not going to skip this time¡± she mustered any


    strength she has and stretched her ws towards Selena''s neck when out of nowhere, another hand


    grabbed her throat. Ozrain''s whole body is shutting down except for his ears. He heard what Aira said


    and he too, gathered up all his strength and attacked her. He didn''t stop there, his hands squeezed a


    bit further and further and further, crushing her neck bone one by one till her tongue stuck out of her


    mouth. Chocked throat, pain from her mate, and the depression of unsessful attempt murder, all


    together dragged Aira down. She probably is the one with the most painful death of all. Within the next


    minute, her struggle seized. Aira is no more and Ozrain threw her dead corpse far away, not wanting to


    see her face at hisst breath. She is the one who had summoned Epsilon to kill Elisa. she thought


    with her death,she will have her mate for herself and will be able to carry his heir,but her n took a


    horrible turn when Ozrain refused to go back to Samrat. She took over thend in hope Ozrain will


    return soon but Epsilon used Elisa''s death against Aira. He threaten to reveal the truth if Aira didn''t


    reject Ozrain and their mate bond. She was also forced to pretend to be sick in order for him to mark


    her.


    Belongs to (N)?vel/Drama.Org.


    Ozrain forced himself to open his eye. A blurry outline of Selena''s face came to his vision, not her


    whole beautiful face


    ¡®I have been fighting for thest 200 years to see this sweet face, yet I still failed to do so in myst


    breath. I hope, somewhere in my next birth, I would be able to be with you longer than this¡¯ he mind-


    linked all of them next to him. It made Selena sob even more as tears came down like raindrops,


    landing on Ozrain''s cheeks.


    ¡®My struggle hasn''t gone to waste. I found a blood rtion to call my own, my daughter and I have


    spent thest 2 days with you. So many nights I have wondered if anyone will shed a drop of tear,


    genuinely, at my depart and here I am, blessed with such a pure soul¡¯ Zaden held Selena''s shoulder,


    struggling to hold back his own tears.


    ¡®I even had an opportunity, to redeem myself, for what I have done to Elisa by saving her rebirth, our


    own daughter. I feelplete. She will forgive me, I know it deep inside me. Thank you, my dear angel¡¯


    with that, Ozrain''s struggle came to an end. His writhing stopped. His eyes froze. He is still holding tight


    to Selena''s hand. The vein has turned almost half of his face ck.


    ¡°NO NO NO NO!!!¡± Selena screamed before dropping her head to Ozrain''s shoulder. Her sobbing was


    agonizing, silencing everyone next to her as they shed muted tears. A ray of silver dust, sparkling and


    glowing in the lunar eclipse night, raised from Ozrain''s body- curving into vines as it ventured higher


    into the sky, towards the unknown afterlife. Almost at the same time, a ray of gold dust, sparkling and


    glowing even brighter, emits from Selena. Whirling around the silver dust, they both raised higher and


    higher, glowing brighter than ever. Everyone looked at it in amusement, as the waves reached high


    above the sky and disperse into the depth of the night sky. Selena is free from Elisa. She is a normal


    werewolf, a normal Samrat werewolf that is.

 CHAPTER 58

    CHAPTER 58


    Bright morning, sky scattered with birds, cool weather and the greenery in front doesn''t seem to cheer


    them up. The whole Samrat Kingdom is solemn at the loss of a great man, Ozrain Samrat. His coffin


    made out of rosewood and the top cover made out of ss, is now filled with roses, a token of love


    from his loyal pack members. An ocean of ck has flooded the Samrat''s cemetery. His coffin lowered


    bit by bit into the pre-dug hole, making Selena sob even more into Zaden''s chest as Zaden caressed


    the back of her head with his thumb, attempting to calm her down. In the short period she had known


    Ozrain, her grandfather had exhibited enormous love towards her. She intended to return them but fate


    had a different n. Her hands are shaky and she ispletely worn out from the continues crying,


    relying on Zaden''s grip to prevent her from slipping limply to the ground. His final respect went on


    smooth, with no interruption. Orion wanted to throw Aira''s body into the sea as well but Selena refused


    to.


    ¡°She did nothing wrong other than loving her mate. She might have taken it a bit too far, but can we


    me her for that? I wish to treat her, at least as a human, which is a part of her too. We can bury her,


    far from papa, please...¡± Selena pleads to Maximus and they agreed, moved by her courtesy. None


    attended her burial, further away at the edge of the cemetery. Graveyard workers did all necessary for


    her.


    They stood there, gazing at the now covered hole, for God knows how long. Zadenter carried Selena


    to the cabin, she doesn''t want to go back to the mansion. He then put her down to sleep on their bed.


    Zaden sat on her side, at the edge of bed, running his fingers along her hair in hope to make her sleep.


    Instead, she kept her gaze on Zaden''s face. Both of them didn''t show any emotions. Ozrain''sst


    memory kept shing in her mind. Zaden was also there when he drank up a full ss of raw prune


    juice. What if Zaden had taken a sip of that juice? Or if Ozrain wasn''t there and Zaden drank it on


    behalf of her? The thought terrifies her, visible trembling her body.


    ¡°Are you sure you want me...as your mate?¡± she asked low, almost to a whisper. Zaden frowned at her


    sudden doubt.


    ¡°Where does thise from?¡± he replied with a question. She slowly sat up, too week at the moment.


    ¡°You were right. This Samrat shit isplicated. Ever since I came, none of you had peace of mind.


    Looking after me has been your full-time job. I don''t want anything happening to you. I will understand if


    you don''t want me....¡± Selena frowned, face painted with concern for the whole pack. Zaden withdraw


    his hands from her and ced his elbows on his knees, sping his hand as he bends down a bit. He


    is clearly angry at the moment but he didn''t show any to her. She is patiently waiting for his words or


    any gesture and she would be happy to leave, right now.


    ¡°Zaden...I''m serious...¡± she gently grabbed his upper arm and he snatched his arms away from her


    ¡®Get in here, now!!!¡¯ his cold voice echoed in the leader''s pack mind and they rushed in.


    ¡°What happened?¡± Make asked.


    ¡°Bambi here says she should leave because she is a pain in the ass for us and it has been our full-time


    job taking care of her. Now, she had said this before and I discussed with all of you whether we should


    keep or lose her¡± Zaden turned his head to Selena, eye-piercing through hers in anger. Her breathing


    ragged knowing that she had stirred him. Not only Zaden but the whole pack is upset now, ring at


    her. She dropped her head.


    ¡°Now, she knows what my decision would be. I am waiting for my pack''s decision¡± Zaden added with a


    cold tone, eyes still staring at Selena


    This text is property of N?/velD/rama.Org.


    ¡°Are you crazy? What is there to decide?¡± Orion answered first and instant.


    ¡°You are our Luna!!! How can you even suggest this?¡± Sitka


    ¡°Yes, you are a pain in the ass but you are our pain special pain in the ass. No way I am giving that up,


    even for the whole world.¡± Xavier. Make sat next to Zaden, facing Selena


    ¡°We take care of you not because we have to, but because we want to. Oh, about leaving us...over my


    dead body¡± Make was super angry at her.


    ¡°Over our dead body, all of us¡± Orion again. Selena raised her eye to see all of their faces, they are


    serious and genuine before pinning back to Zaden. His burning re is still on her.


    ¡°Not even a minute for them to decide this time¡± Selena slowly lowered her eye to herp, feeling guilty.


    There was a moment of silence. Zaden suddenly grabbed her cheeks between his fingers and pulled


    her, harshly towards him, forcing her to look up at his eye. The rest gasped as Make held Zaden''s


    arm in panic.


    ¡°Don''t you even dream about leaving me. I will hunt you down and drag you back to Mount Manuka.


    And yes, that is a warning. You understand that, baby girl?¡± A drop of sweat trailed down his temple to


    his clenched jaw as a vein decided to turn blue and bulge on his temple. She nodded with a frown and


    Zaden let go of her. He stood up and walked out of the room


    ¡°Make her understand¡± he said low at Orion before passing by him. Tears started rolling down Selena''s


    eyes.


    ¡°I don''t want to see anyone getting hurt because of me, not anymore. First my mom and now Ozrain...¡±


    She sobbed and Make hugged her head, pulling her to lean on her shoulder


    ¡°Maybe because you are worth dying for, sweety...shu... Zaden is just upset, don''t mind him...¡± Selena


    sobbed in Make''s shoulder and the other felt crushed. They too joined Selena on her bed.


    About 30 minutester, Zaden walked into the room again. Make nudged her head and the others


    shuffled to stand up from the bed. They slowly walked out from there, one after one while Zaden stood


    at the door, staring at the floor, arms crossed his chest. Orion, to be thest one, grabbed Zaden''s


    shoulder with a pursed lip, assuring him that everything is fine and walked away from there. Zaden


    closed the door behind him. His broad shoulder, 6.2'''' height and tough body would intimidate anyone,


    so did Selena. He paced, still with a serious look on his face and slide into the bed, next to Selena. He


    lay there, face to Selena but his eyes are closed, pretending to be asleep. Selena, who at first choose


    to stay clear out of his way, couldn''t help stealing nces at him.


    ¡°Sleep¡± a low voice came from him, which felt like a hallucination to her, since his lips just twitched. It


    can be a hallucination. She slides down into the duvet and lowered herself toy on the bed. She kept


    staring at him and he kept ignoring her. It feels weird sleeping apart from him. She wanted to touch him


    but worry that he might still be mad at her. She finally mustered up some courage. It''s Zaden, what can


    he do except for maybe scolding her, right? After venting out, he would pamper her, anyways. She


    lowered her duvet to her hip and raised her ck silk shirt, till it hit her bra line. She then stretched her


    hand, grabbing his, spontaneously bringing it toy on her stomach. Zaden''s eye snapped open, sober


    as the daylight.


    ¡°You haven''t snuggled to my tummy in days. The baby misses you...¡± she whispered to him. His


    stomach churned due to butterfly flutter. She was a virgin girl in all aspects, doesn''t know how to say


    she misses him.


    ¡°And you don''t?¡± he replied low too. She bit her lips and looked away from him, maybe she had chosen


    the wrong words to divert him. He gazed at her, frowning slightly before grabbing her waist and pulling


    her to him. He then tangled his fingers into her hair and pushed her head up. A soft kiss on her lips. He


    never fails to enchant her with his kiss, leaving her zoned out from reality, every single time. He let go


    and looked into her eyes.


    ¡°I''m sorry I snapped at you...¡± he said


    ¡°No, no. I''m sorry for touching your weak spot...¡± she whispered with regret


    ¡°Yes, you got that right. You are my week spot. No matter what happens, don''t ever think about leaving


    me behind...¡± his tone surged a sorrow into Selena.


    ¡°I...I won''t...even if you chase me away...¡± they both giggled and he leaned down for another kiss,


    deeper than before. He let go when they were both short of breath. He couldn''t wait for her to regain


    herposure and kissed her cheeks, forehead, chin, nose, practically everywhere. It was not just skin


    to skin, he sucked gingerly, leaving a trace of wetness along the way. He trailed off to her neck, still


    laying thousands of kisses along the slender length. Weing his touch, Selena ran her fingers up


    the back of his hair and another hand holding his upper arm. She exhaled with a low moan.


    ¡°They made up!!! They made up!!! ¡± a voice from outside the door made them snapped their heads to


    the door. It was definitely Make. She has been eavesdropping the whole time. They chuckled lightly.


    Zaden looked at the woman in his hands, who had just lost a family member. Her eyes were still slightly


    swollen and red, with tear stains tracing down her cheeks. He aborted his intention of making love to


    her.


    ¡°You need sleep, badly...¡± he said and Selena puzzled at his sudden change of action.


    ¡°No inky pinky? Why?¡± he grinned at the new nickname they came up with for sex.


    ¡°You have cheated death twice in the past 24 hours. 5 times in the past 15 days. I would rmend


    you to sleep at least for 5 days, not taking count Make''s opinion¡± Zaden said, stirring her confusion


    even more. After some mental calction, she opened her mouth


    ¡°5 times? How?¡± she asked


    ¡°Well, first Goya at the camping event, then Goya again when we baited her. We thought Ozrain going


    to kill you, he didn''t. Then we came here and faced Epsilon. Then came the sparing ground where you


    escaped despite not killing anyone out of your own will. Aira poisoned you but Ozrain took it on your


    behalf and she attempted again on the cliff but Ozrain killed her...¡± he finally finished and stared


    Selena''s priceless expression


    ¡°Good observation, I have to say...¡± she said


    ¡°So, Elisa skipped 5 generations to be born with 5 perfect elements, cheat death 5 times before killing


    the fifth Samrat King!!!¡± he wanted to see her expression one more time and so, gave out another one


    of his observations.


    ¡°How on earth...¡± Selena said, earning a kiss on the lips from him. He let go to snuggle her stomach,


    listening to the now active tiny heartbeat.


    ¡°Your daughter is going to keep us up all night after being born...¡± he said with a smirk


    ¡°Son...¡± Selena said.

 CHAPTER 59

    CHAPTER 59


    Selena woke up past lunchtime and Zaden wasn''t there next to her. She staggered out of bed and


    walked out, rubbing her eyes to the living room. Maximus was there, with Zaden. They stopped their


    intense discussion once they saw Selena. She walked straight to them with a smile. There were some


    take-out boxes on the coffee table and her tummy growled involuntarily at the sight of food. Zaden


    guided her to sit on the couch before grabbing a box of fried rice, stuck a spoon into it, and gave it to


    Selena. She took it with a smile, before offering lunch to Maximus and he refused politely. She dug into


    her box and soon got through it as she was really hungry.


    ¡°So, what''s next in your n?¡± Maximus asked Selena. His red, curly hair set a hue of sun-kissed glow


    on his olive skin. His hazel eye is not waiting with expectation for Selena.


    ¡°What?¡± Selena panned her head to Zaden, who has now leaned back on the couch, arms stretched


    wide on the headrest.


    ¡°He is referring to your n for the pack. Not what is your n for dinner...¡± his sarcasm earned an eye


    roll from Selena


    ¡°Why am I nning anything for the pack? Aren''t we suppose to go back to Manuka today?¡± she


    directed the question to Zaden but Maximus came forward to answer


    ¡°Oh no, honey. You are the alpha of this pack¡± Maximus said with a smile and Selena zapped up to


    stand. Such an issue never came across her mind.


    ¡°WHAT???¡± that came out louder than she intended. Her eye widened and her jaw is probably


    somewhere next to her feet. Zaden and Maximus didn''t flinch as they expected such a reaction from


    her. They stood up casually.


    ¡°You are the new Samrat''s alpha, Selena...Queen Selena that is¡± Zaden hugged her waist, pulling her


    closer to him in a thud from behind.


    ¡°No no no...I am not an alpha material. Maximus, you can take over the pack, right?¡± she asked, trying


    desperately to outrun the situation


    ¡°Yes, but I refuse to¡± he crossed his arms over his chest


    ¡°Why not? See, being alphaes with its own perk. Let me exin to you¡± that is Selena,


    brainwashing Maximus to take over the alpha position


    ¡°Na ah, nothing doing. You are the alpha¡± Maximus replied with a chuckle


    ¡°But I have the right to refuse to. Besides, from what I recall, you are fused packed. Meaning you have


    other alphas in the ind, correct?¡± she seemed proud of herself foring up with that line. Orion,


    Make, Sitka, and Xavier walked into the house and straight to Selena.


    ¡°Number 1, you can''t refuse the alpha title because you have just inherited that the moment Ozrain


    died. It is not a choice, like for me, it is who you are, born alpha. Number 2, you are right we have 11


    alphas on the ind but you can''t simply pick one to be your recement. Then the others will rise to


    challenge each other,pete, die and the one who survives will be the next alpha. In other words, 10


    families will lose their heads and 1 will be alpha in your ce. Is that what you want?¡± Maximus


    has done speaking and Selena stood there dumbfound, eyes still wide as her mouth too.


    ¡°What happens to you then? You would leave me alone here, after all that drama in there?¡± she asked


    Zaden


    ¡°I won''t leave you, baby girl. But I will have to go and convince my pack toe here. That''s all I have


    thought out for now. The rest depends...¡± He said


    ¡°This should be interesting,¡± Xavier said as they all plopped on the couch. Selena pped her thighs


    with her palm before she turned to look at Zaden. Zaden shrugged his shoulders, innocently. She then


    turned away from him, annoyed, and started pacing around. Her blood pressure is rising, one hand


    clutches her waist and another up to her lips, biting nails. She took quite a long time, mumbling stuff


    under her breath every now and then. If she stays, Zaden would probably try to shift the whole pack


    here. Which is better for them since they have ess to technology and quality education here. But


    then, their effort to build a civilization back in the mountain will be washed away. With no alpha there,


    the poachers and rogues will roam freely in the mountains, practically molesting the natural beauty and


    wealth of that ce. What should she do? Which way is the best? Civilization or nature? She racked


    her brain in every single possible point of view.


    Her ck chiffon blouse is sitting right above her crotch and 2 buttons from her top are undone. A long


    ck leather strap with turquoise locket and dangling feather ending at her mid-chest and visible


    through the chiffon material. Anothertest addition, a short gold chain with a heart hiatus locket,


    inherited from Ozrain visible from the opened button. A rose-gold bulkydy''s wristwatch lingering


    around her chin since her index finger is busy feeding nails to her teeth. Her unruly ck hair with


    silver stripe swept to one side. Her skin has started to glow from the sun or pregnancy hormone, he is


    not sure, radiating sophisticated badass girl vibe but the reality known by her close ones is that she is


    harmless and innocent as a butterfly can be. Not to mention those enchanting eyes. Her scent has


    definitely heightened, sending erotic waves to Zaden, calling him to her embrace. Her curves are


    prominent, indulging Zaden in his dirty imaginations. She simply looks delicious even in a in shirt


    and jeans. Zaden took this opportunity to eye fuck her, from top to bottom. A flush of heat surged from


    his neck, as he bit his lips and his eyes darkened with lust. A bump on his rib made him return to


    reality. It was Sitka, sitting next to him.


    ¡°Can you be a bit modest? Some of us are unmated!!!¡± he said low and Zaden straightened himself.


    After so long, Make stood up and went to the kitchen, making coffee for all of them and prune juice


    for Selena. She thought she might want something easy to swallow under such pressured


    circumstances, hence skipped the fruit form. She came back with a tray and ced it on the coffee


    table, took the ss of juice and hand it to Selena.


    ¡°Here, prune juice. I added a lot of honey to it, to make it better tasting.¡± Make said and Selena


    stiffened, straightening her hands next to her thighs. Zaden stiffened too since he was there when


    Ozrain drank up herst poisoned prune juice. He hasn''t really got any time to share with the pack


    details about what happened the night before. All they know is that Ozrain drank a poisoned juice


    intended for Selena, they didn''t know it was prune juice and if they had known, Make probably


    wouldn''t have made one today. Selena took the ss and stared at it. The image of Ozrain''sst


    laughter shed in her mind. Subconsciously, a tear rolled down her cheeks. Zaden stood up and


    walked slowly to Selena. He stretched his hand to grab the ss but Selena quickly drank it, not


    stopping anywhere in the mid. Her eyes squeezed shut, trying to tolerate the taste. She stared at the


    empty ss when she was done.


    ¡°Who the hell associated prune and pregnancy? Let the fucker rot in hell¡± she said and a sad smile


    curved on her lips. More and more tears flowed down. Zaden closed the gap between them, grabbed


    her head with one hand, and pulled her into his embrace, resting her head in his chest. His other hand


    is wrapped around her shoulder. She practically disappeared in his embrace while her hands fisted on


    Zaden''s shirt near his ribs. Orion stood up and followed by others. He walked to stand behind Selena


    as he rubbed his palm on her back. Make looked at Zaden, quizzical. Zaden sighed out


    ¡°Ozrain drank a ss of poisoned PRUNE juice, that was made for Selena because she can''t stand the


    taste¡± Zaden exined and Make gasped in realization and bit her lips.


    ¡°Sweety, I''m sorry. I didn''t know¡± she rubbed Selena''s arm. Selena retracted herself from Zaden, wiping


    her tears dry.


    ¡°It''s fine, you didn''t know...¡± she swallowed her saliva


    ¡°I have lost 2 of my loved ones because they tried to take my ce...My spot seems to be fatal...¡± she


    looked sharp at Maximus


    ¡°Assemble all the alphas in the ind in an hour. I need to talk to them¡± a wide grin carved Maximus''s


    face as he nodded in relief. He walked away, out of the cabin. Somewhere in the depth of his heart, he


    knew she is going to be a great alpha, considering how she insisted on staying in the cabin when she


    has a luxurious mansion just a few meters away and her love for Ozrain.


    Back in the cabin, Zaden tilted her head up with his hand still on the back of her head. Heid a gentle


    kiss on her lips. His eye is filled with concern.


    ¡°Are you ok, baby girl...¡± he asked and she smiled gently at him


    ¡°Why wouldn''t I? I have you, don''t I?¡± she winked with both her eyes. The lust that had subsided just


    now is back, raging storms within him. He paused for a moment, before smashing his lips with hers. A


    breathy moan escaped his mouth. All the others next to them stirred ufortably, especially Orion,


    embarrassed by the public disy of love. Selena tried to push away but he pushed her deeper into his


    lips. He doesn''t care who is looking and who is not at this point, he is failing to control himself. He


    walked forward, not letting go of her lips, forcing her to steps back in sync with him. They ended up


    walking straight into the room, turning left at the door. Just before closing the door, Zaden peeped out


    ¡°Make, no eavesdropping¡± he warned her and closed the door.


    Behind the cabin doors, things heated up pretty quickly. The public disy of love has now be a


    private assault as he proceeds to roughly bite her lips and neck. His fingers are busy undoing her jeans


    button.


    ¡°Zaden...stop...¡± she had to grab hold of his biceps to steady herself from his attack.


    ¡°Oh no baby, you don''t have that privilege today¡± that is a sure sign he is not stopping. His breathing is


    deep and quick. He spanned her around and both of her palmsnded on the wall with a thud. Orion''s


    eyes outside the room snapped up. This is just a bit too much for him to handle. The girl that he loved


    and still has feelings for is having sex with another man who is nothing less than him, in the room right


    next to him. He sprang up from the couch and walked out of the cabin.


    Zaden lowered her jeans, revealing a ckced panty. He kneeled down in a hurry. Sliding his fingers


    in the waistband, he lowered down the panties before gently biting her butt cheeks. Selena hissed at


    his action. He came up again, biting her shoulder and she threw her head behind, on to his shoulder


    ¡°I know you are upset, let me remedy that...¡± a finger slide down her but into her body from those soft


    lips between her legs. She let out a yelp, squirming as he moved his finger in and out.


    ¡°I need you, baby... I need you badly...¡± he whispered to her ears, his warm breath heating her neck.


    She moaned deliciously. His manhood sprang up in an instant


    ¡°Oh shit...Selena...¡± he groaned at the sensation. He spun her back to front, cupping her neck with one


    hand while his thumb is tilted her head up. He gave a very rough kiss to her, pulling her lips between


    his teeth. He identally breaks her skin, making it bleed a little. She snapped her head to the side,


    covering her mouth with the back of her hand, letting out a hiss. Zaden bit his lips and his nose red


    as if he is restraining his anger. He slipped his finger into her body, once again from the front. She let


    out another yelp. Her hands trembling as she fumbled to grab hold of Zaden''s shoulder. She is wet as if


    an internal switch flicked on at Zaden''s touch. He moved his hand faster than before, making her gasp


    and exhale rapidly. She doesn''t want to scream, considering the pack member outside the door. She bit


    her lips hard, ignoring the pain at her lip''s corner, inflicted by Zaden just a few seconds ago. After a


    sequence of deep thrusting, Zaden leaned closer to her ears


    ¡°Cum for me...Alpha Selena...¡± his throat is dry, resulting in a gravelly low voice. An alpha fucking


    another alpha. The thought made her rise to the edge and she screamed his name. A burst of her


    femininity dripped down his hand.


    ¡°Good girl...¡± Zaden whispered again before kissing her violently again. He stepped his feet on top of


    her panties and jeans, which have gathered at her feet, carried her in bridal style, swiftly removing the


    pants from her feet.


    He walked to the bed and Selena had her hand wrapped around his neck. She is anxious as if this is


    the first time being with him. It is definitely not their first, but this is the first time she is seeing him this


    rough, this much dominating. He gently ced her on the bed edge, not forgetting that she is pregnant.


    Sheid on the bed with her feet hanging down the edge.


    Content provided by N?velDrama.Org.


    ¡°Shirts off¡± he demanded while he himself swiftly removed his ck V-neck t-shirt and threw them


    away. Selena slowly opened her button one by one, finishing just in time for Zaden to have removed his


    belt and undo his jeans to the ground. She isid on the bed with a back spaghetti strap. Zaden bend


    down to ce a hand next to her head and another grabbing her thighs, he is going to thrust into her.


    Something bad snapped within her. She pushed him away by his shoulder. Zaden stood straight in


    confusion. She had just pushed herself to sit, stretching her body most sensually before rolling her


    neck. Bingo!!!


    Zaden smirked. She opened her eyes and looked up. Her eyes are ck. Oh, how he misses this form


    of her. He raised his hand to grab her head but she pushed it away. Eager to taste his erect manhood


    struck her out of nowhere. She leaned forward, taking him into her mouth, little by little, deeper and


    deeper by second.


    ¡°Argh...Selena...¡± he groaned with a heavy breath. She moved faster, slurping his full length in and out.


    A deep moan escaped his lips. He slides his hands into her hair, grabbing a fist as she moved faster


    and faster.


    ¡°Baby... stop...¡± he sensed his climax and wanted her to stop but no, she is not stopping


    ¡°Baby...please stop...¡± she pulled out but it was toote that he released on her face. His thick, white


    seed dripped from her cheeks, down to her throat. Zaden breathing is frantic as he watched Selena


    taking off her spaghetti strap camisole to wipe off her face and throat. She is wearing a ckce bra


    to match her panties. She then pulled his hand as she ttened on the bed. Zaden struggled to avoid


    crushing on top of her and finally was able to hover on top of her. She stretched her hand down, gently


    stroking his manliness, making it roar in fierce within a few seconds. Zaden smiled at her, not lovingly,


    more like the ¡®you are dead¡¯ sort of smile. He thrust her without mercy, making her scream and moan


    uncontrobly. By this time, the whole house decides to take a walk, anywhere but this cabin. Selena


    fisted the sheet when he had turned her around, to thrust from the back. It took so long for him toe


    undone, that Selena had came thrice and her voice has turned into low and gravelly, unrecognizable


    even by her. He was finally done andid next to her, not touching. Their breathing is ragged. She


    closed her eyes and dropped her head to the side. Her skin flushed pink. He admired her naked body,


    every inch of it. He thenid a kiss on her forehead and she smiled between her heavy


    breathing.

 CHAPTER 60

    CHAPTER 60


    After a long, hot scorching bath, Selena and Zaden were ready for the alphas meeting. They walked


    out of the room to find the whole cabin empty. They exchanged a surprised look to each other before


    heading to the mansion. Selena stood there, at the entry of the mansion, gazing up at the mighty


    building. She doesn''t like the mansion at all. The rest of the pack had joined them after mind-linked.


    ¡°Wee, Queen Selena...¡± Maximus with full enthusiasm at the door


    ¡°Just Selena, please...¡± Selena smiled at him and walked hand in hand with Zaden. She needs him the


    most at the moment, after all, he has been doing this alpha thing longer than she does. Maximus


    guided them upstairs and thank god, they didn''t cross the dining hall. At thest step on second floor,


    Selena saw a double door with exquisite carving, painted in gold. Maximus pushed open the door to


    reveal an extravagant hall. Rows and rows of windows lined the sides of the room, making it extremely


    bright. A full-length, probably customized square table with matching carving at the door stood in the


    middle. Countless chairs with matching carving and red velvet cushions lined next to the table. At the


    end of the room, the whole wall was filled with shelves, amodating files and books.


    ¡°Wee, Queen-¡° a fair blonde man, with a simr body build to Zaden greeted her and she cut him


    off


    ¡°Selena, please...¡± the man took it positively and smiled


    ¡°Wee, Selena...¡± they shook hands. As if preprogrammed, his and his pack''s name came to


    Selena''s mind. She cocked her head to one side, frowning.


    ¡°Theodore...Alpha Theodore from Red valley, is it?¡± and he nodded. Not only him, every single man


    and a woman, to Selena''s surprise, is familiar to her.

    ¡®Alpha Marcus, Graphite Pack


    Alpha Capsion, Blue Moon Pack


    Rowana, Riddle Moon Pack


    Alpha Damon, ck Wolf Pack...¡¯


    ¡°Why is your pack is called ck wolf? Are all your wolves ck?¡± Selena tilted her head to the side as


    she asked Damon in curiosity. He chuckled in return.


    ¡°Yes, my dear Que...hmm...Selena¡± Selena smiled, appreciating his consideration. She turned to Zaden


    and he leaned down a bit, bringing his ears closer to her


    ¡°Zaden, I know all of them...¡± she said amused.


    ¡°Yes, baby girl. They are your pack and had epted you as their alpha. Alpha knows their pack in and


    out, like the back of their hand.¡± Selena raised her eyebrow, again amused. Zaden is now embracing


    her by her waist from her right and Orion, as usual on her left. All the leaders greeted them warmly and


    all of them knew Alpha Zaden ck from Mountain Manuka very well. After some initial ice-breaking


    conversation, they all sat down at the table, waiting for Selena to begin, who is standing at the end.


    She felt weird being the center of attraction and agitated. Her eye panned from one face to another.


    Sensing her, Zaden stood up from his seat and paced to Selena. He grabbed her waist and guided her


    slightly away from all before leaning to her ears.


    ¡°Alphas don''t get nervous, Selena...you are born in a superior bloodline. Rx and breath, it wille


    naturally to you...¡± he straightened back before caressing her cheek


    ¡°Ok?¡± he asked with a cocked eyebrow and she nodded. He kissed her forehead before walking back


    to his seat. Selena came back to stand at the end of the table.


    ¡°First of all, thank you for being here in regard to my request. I appreciate your cooperation. I am in a


    situation where I have to take over papa but I am fairly new to the whole werewolf life, per se. If


    anything I say or do that is offensive, please, bare with me¡± she crossed her finger and they all


    chuckled at her gesture. She resumes after a pause


    ¡°From my understanding, Samrat Kingdom is a fuse of 13packs?¡± she looked at Maximus for


    confirmation.


    ¡°11, my dear. 2 are rogues and they are either dead or ran away after Epsilon''s death¡± he said and


    Selena nodded


    ¡°11 packs then. When papa left, it was only 5 fused packs and I have no idea how he or Epsilon did


    that. Some of you might have been forced or threatened or extra extra extra. So, if this have to work,


    we have to be on the same page, with your own willpower.¡± All of them listened carefully to her. Selena


    trailed her eyes to Zaden, who had sprawled back into his chair in a rxed manner with his thumb


    under his chin and knuckles in front of his mouth. When their eyes collided, he gave her a kiss, hidden


    from behind his knuckles. Some members caught his act and smirked, effectively embarrassing her.


    Selena gasped before looking down and rubbing her hand behind her neck. She exhaled and


    continued.


    ¡°As I was saying...what was I saying?¡± she started mumbling because her mind went nk.


    ¡°The same page with will power¡± Xavier pitched in


    ¡°Ah, same page with willpower. Aiming for that, I am giving all packs an option¡± both her hands are now


    on the edge of the table in linear line. She is emitting an aura of dominance, the same as Ozrain only


    she doesn''t realize that.


    ¡°You are given 24 hours to decide whether you and your pack would like to be remained fused in to


    Samrat or not.¡± They all stiffened.


    ¡°I don''t want anyone being forced to stay with us. There is a lot of aspects to consider. Your ie,


    your effort in building this ind, children''s future, education, infrastructure, and so on. I cannot stress


    enough how important it is to discuss with all your pack members. So, please... when you agree to this


    tomorrow at 5 pm, do it wholeheartedly and no going back and forth. If you don''t, no offense taken. So,


    that''s all, thank you...¡± a low murmur echoed through the room as Selena red down at Zaden. She


    walked to him


    ¡°I should forbid Alpha Zaden ck from entering this room again...¡± she said with a smirk and he


    chuckled. She is now leaning by her butt on the table, next to Zaden on his chair. The rest of the


    leader''s pack was sitting close by


    ¡°What are you nning to do?¡± Orion asked. She nodded gently


    ¡°I have an idea. Let¡¯s see how it works tomorrow¡± she said low, hesitation is quite visible


    ¡°Are you going to leave Mount Manuka?¡± Make asked and instantly they all turned solemn. Instead


    of answering her, Selena''s eye gazed deep into Zaden''s and he did the same. After a while, he stirred


    before pulling Selena by her wrist and made her sit on hisp, facing others.


    ¡°She is the one who asked the question. Why are you looking at me as if you are going to eat me


    alive?¡± he pointed at Make.


    ¡°That''s because my decision greatly depends on yours and clearly, you are not sure too¡± she looked


    over her shoulder and Zaden rolled his eye. They sat there discussing the possibilities for a bit more


    longer, not realizing how time flies away. Most of the suggestion put on the table was on how to move


    Mountain Manuka pack into the ind, which doesn''t sit quite nicely with Selena. She didn''t respond to


    any, thou. Thousand and one questions running through her mind.

 CHAPTER 61

    CHAPTER 61


    That night, Zaden was putting Selena down to sleep. Selena was wearing a simple cotton t-shirt and


    shorts, tucked under the duvet, leaning on Zaden''s chest. He kept her close to him. His fingers running


    through her hair, carefully arranging them into a fan on the pillow beside them, lulling her to sleep but


    she doesn''t seem to doze off, eyes wide as an owl. He ran his fingers from her forehead to her cheeks,


    shutting down her eye.


    ¡°Sleep...¡± she nodded gently; eyes closed. Zaden gazed spellbound at her calm face for around 5


    minutes


    ¡°Are you asleep?...¡± he whispered and she shook her head ¡®NO¡¯. Zaden pped her butt yfully,


    making her chuckle. She opened her eye.


    ¡°Seriously, go to sleep...¡± it wasn''t an hourter, when Zaden was sure she is asleep, he slipped out of


    her grip. He wasn''t sleepy, so he intends to walk around. At the front porch of the cabin, Orion was


    sitting leisurely, sipping beers.


    ¡°What are you doing? They don''t do anything to us¡± Zaden said. Alcohol doesn''t intoxicated


    werewolves.


    ¡°I know... but they are tasty and warms you up...here!¡± Orion passed another bottle to Zaden. He took it


    with a smirk and sat next to Orion.


    ¡°I don''t remember thest time we have been this free, mentally...¡± Zaden said


    ¡°Probably before your 18th birthday...¡± Orion replied


    ¡°Oh ya...we were so sure that we are going to find our mate the following morning and fucked at least a


    dozen she-wolfs that night itself. ¡° Zaden recalled and they both chuckled


    ¡°Listen, don''t tell her that...¡± Zaden requested


    ¡°What, you are scared of that tiny creature in there?¡± Orion asked with an exim


    ¡°Believe it or not, I am...¡± Orion let out a louderugh.


    ¡°Don''t be so cocky. You might find a tiny terror one day too...then it won''t be so funny¡± Zaden said low


    ¡°I don''t know... ¡° Orion looked far into the view.


    ¡°You said so when She left us but you manage to fall for Selena, didn''t you? Maybe not tomorrow


    morning, but someday, you will find someone, Orion...¡± Zaden said low.


    ¡°Maybe...But it has always been an agony. I am not sure I want to go through that again.¡± Zaden


    pursed his lips and shook his head, giving up to him. They drifted, chatting about other things when


    Zaden felt a familiar scent behind him.


    ¡°Selena is here¡± he whispered, both Zaden and Orion hid their beer bottle.


    ¡°Are you drinking alcohol?¡± there is no way she could have seen the bottles, it must be her smelling


    ability. Zaden automatically pointed his index finger at Orion, not even looking back at her. Orion got


    caught in the middle of his alpha and Luna. His eyes darted back and forth from Zaden to Selena.


    ¡°No sweety...just beer¡± Orion raised up his bottle, smiling sheepishly at her who is standing behind


    them now. She crossed her hand over her chest, twist her lips, and red at Orion. He swallowed his


    saliva.


    ¡°Not so tough now, huh?¡± Zaden leaned to the sides and whispered to him, earning a re in return.


    ¡°Howe you are not sleeping?¡± Zaden asked her


    ¡°I can''t...¡± she took a few steps and crouched down to squeeze between Zaden and Orion.


    ¡°With every minute passing by, I feel different inside me. Restless...a vibration...I don''t know how to


    exin...¡±


    ¡°Energy surge? Yup, that happens¡± Zaden said and Selena''s eye focused on him.


    ¡°The more pack members ept you, the more energy you get from the moon goddess. That''s what


    makes alpha stronger than the rest of the pack, the energy, or some may say power within them. You


    get this newfound confidence that you can ovee anything, a rage to protect your pack. That is your


    first defense against your enemy, weakening them mentally with your confidence before you even


    touching them¡± he looked up and pointed.


    ¡°Today is the birth of a new moon and a new alpha.¡± he said, Zaden and Orion''s eyes on Selena and


    she felt ufortable.


    ¡°Although I must say, an alpha that doesn''t fit into typical description...¡± he added and Orion chuckled


    with him but Selena narrowed her eye at them. Zaden leaned to kiss her cheeks, in an attempt to calm


    her down and her eyes snapped open.


    ¡°YOU drank alcohol!!!¡± she said with an exmation and Zaden''s eye widened involuntarily.


    ¡°Busted!!!¡± Orion wiggled his eyebrow at Zaden.


    ¡°I will ignore that since I need to talk to you, in private¡± Zaden felt relief and stood up before stretching


    his hands to Selena. She red and took his hands. They walked into the woods, not so far from


    Orion. He could still see them, leaned on trees opposite each other, at least 6 feet apart, not closely


    knit and kissing. Selena seems to have brought up something important and Zaden listened attentively


    from the other end. He rubbed his lips with a frown, asking questions to Selena every now and then.


    She answered him. It looks ¡®strictly business¡¯ and went on for 25 minutes or so. After their discussion


    was over, they came back with Selena trailing behind Zaden, hand in hand.


    ¡°See you...I need to fuck her¡± Zaden said, simply to irritate Orion. Selena swatted his hands. Orion took


    another sip from his beer bottle.


    ¡°Of course you would. I''m all out since you finished thest 4 bottles, why would you stay then?¡± Orion


    facing the woods, smirking with satisfaction


    ¡°You finished 4 bottles?¡± Selena''s eyes widened with anger. Zaden just joined Orion and took a few


    sips but Orion did that on purpose, to irritate Selena and get Zaden into trouble.


    ¡°No baby, I took just a few sips¡± Selena wasn''t in the mood to listen, she just dashed off. Zaden pursed


    his lips and stride to Orion, punching his back. He shrugged in pain and turned around but Zaden was


    already behind Selena, in their room.


    ¡°Let go¡± Selena was still upset with Zaden. She tried in vain to push him away but no way that is going


    to work. He remainedtched to her neck with his seductive breathy moans.


    ¡°You can''t fight me Alpha Selena¡± a smirk felt on her neck and she immediately felt a slip between her


    thighs. What is it with that word, Alpha Selena? He used her momentary weakness and pulled her shirt


    off, overhead and threw it away. A pair of round curves, covered in chili redced bra stare back at him.


    ¡°Oh baby girl...these are beautiful...¡± he leaned down and kissed the curves rising just above herced


    bra hem. He slides her shorts off her hip, revealing a matching chili red panty.


    ¡°Zaden...¡± his name came out sexy and stretched, while Zaden was busy kissing and fondling her


    breast.


    ¡°Yes, baby girl...You are doing a great job turning me on¡± Zaden then carried Selena to the bed,id her


    down gently and hovered on top of her. Her fingers are tangled in his hair and her breathing is unstable


    as Zaden does his magic on her now, hard protruding nipples underneath thece. Her heartbeat


    increased and the muscles on her thighs clenched which means she is about to have an orgasm.


    Sensing this, Zaden abruptly stopped and stood up. His face is cold, staring back at Selena and Selena


    is puzzled.


    ¡°What''s wrong?¡± she asked with a frown


    ¡°Nothing...Just that I have decided to grant your wish a few minutes ago, so I''m letting you go¡± Selena''s


    eye widened and she is now blushing pink. How would she tell him not to stop? That she needs him


    now?


    ¡°What? You are kidding right?¡± she had tilted her head down and her eye is ring at him from her


    forehead. Her breast is slightly heaving from her ragged breath.


    This text is property of N?/velD/rama.Org.


    ¡°No, I''m not. Bye...¡± Zaden seemed serious and took a few steps to the door. Selena shuffled out of the


    bed and quickly strode to stand in front of him. She grabbed his shoulders and jumped up, wrapping


    her legs around his waist. Zaden quickly grabbed her thigh and butt for added support. She then


    hugged his neck, with one arm around it and another arm behind his head, smashing her lips to his.


    Her hair falls like a curtain to one side of their faces. Her kiss was violent, intending to hurt him, biting


    and sucking forcefully as his whole head buried in her arms. Zaden''s trimmed beard rubbed against her


    upper chest, tickling her but she restrained her flinch. There was an urgency in her kiss, something new


    to her. They are in desperate need of breath but at the same time, she enjoys the slight dizziness she


    is in now. He moaned through their kiss. When she bites his lower lip again, he pped her butt which


    is in his hand, making her yelp low. He tried to kiss her back. Zaden is a more to tongue kind of guy. He


    tried to suck her tongue but she kept jerking her head back, not letting him have her the way he likes,


    pissing him off. He let go of her thighs and grabbed the back of her head, pushing her closer to him and


    holding her in position to satisfy his need. His warm, soft tongue explores every inch of her mouth. He


    tilted her head to suck her tongue. He moaned again and again satisfied with each of his assaults,


    sending a shiver down her spine every time he does that. She can feel goosebumps on her back,


    spreading below her earlobe. When she breaks off the kiss, they were breathing heavily.


    ¡°We had a deal. Fuck me before you go, Alpha Zaden¡± She is using his card against him. He smiled.


    ¡°With pleasure...¡± deep husky voice sending a jolt up her stomach.

 CHAPTER 62

    CHAPTER 62


    Selena slowly blinked her eyes to open. Her whole body is aching. Last night was full of violence with


    hair grabbing, choking, pping, biting, and screaming. Selena smiled when she recalledst night,


    pulling her duvet up to her chin to cover up her girlish giggle. Zaden was not there with her. She found


    multiple love marks on her body during the bath. She touched those marks and a sudden prick of pain


    erupted, reminding her how and where she got the mark from. She frowned when she felt a slip


    between her thighs. Not again!!! She sighed out and tried to finish her bath fast without giving space to


    any intruding memories. Keyword to be noted here; TRIED.


    She walked to the front and Zaden had his back to her, below the stairs of the front porch. Maximus


    and Orion were there too, talking to him. Maximus smiled at Selena when he noticed her and Zaden


    looked over his shoulder. She was wearing a jeans and chili red t-shirt. The chili red t-shirt immediately


    popped millions of images into his head. He bit his lower lips with a vicious smile at her. She pretends


    not to know what that smile means and walked gently to them. Climbing down just one step, she slides


    her hands gently from behind on his shoulders.


    ¡°We were just discussing menu for today''s meet-up. We would like to treat our Queen to something


    nice since you refused any luxuries from us. What would you like?¡± Maximus questioned.


    ¡°Ice-cream,¡± both Zaden and Selena said together, Zaden was more sarcastic. Maximus''s eye widened


    at Orion.


    ¡°Told you...¡± Orion said and Maximus chuckled before leaving with Orion. Maximus and Orion seem to


    get along well. Selena slipped her hand to the front. Another came to sp, hugging Zaden and


    nted a kiss on his neck.


    ¡°You should know better by now. No red color clothing¡± Zaden said low and Selena chuckled.


    ¡°Why? Does that spell danger to you?¡± she whispered to his ears, sending tingles even to the toughest


    alpha out there. He grabbed her hands and moved forward. She yelped before jumping to wrap her feet


    around Zaden''s waist, a piggyback ride.


    ¡°Not for me, but for you...¡± he looked over his shoulder and nted a kiss on her lips. He had just


    sucked her bottom lips for 3 seconds when they heard a scream behind them, and Zaden let her lips go


    before turning around.


    ¡°Put her down!!! Oh my god¡± it was Make, all panicky and jerky. Selena slowly slides off his back


    with a frown.


    ¡°How many times should I tell you two, careful!!! ¡° Selena had dropped her head to the ground, pulling


    her t-shirt that has ridden up from piggyback ride. Zaden stood there rubbing his neck.


    ¡°I didn''t expect this from you, Selena. How am I going to get you through this pregnancy? Could you


    please be a bit less childish for another 8 months, just this 8 months in your whole entire life?¡± Make


    was really fuming. Selena had never been scolded like this before, except for Zaden, but she knows


    how to turn his anger around. She kept her head down and walked away.


    ¡°Selena...¡± Zaden took a step forward to follow her


    ¡°No, don''t¡± she just used her Samrat order on him and Make and they froze in the spot. Zaden


    red at Make.


    ¡°What happen?¡± Sitka and Xavier just walked out of the cabin and peeping their head to see the back


    of Selena. Zaden''s re on Make intensifies as if he would snap her head any second now and


    Xavier and Sitka understood. They also ring at Make with arms crossed their chest. Make


    suddenly felt like she is under a microscope as her eye flickered around the ground.


    It wasn''t until lunch when Selena came back to the cabin, even then because she was hungry. She sat


    at the wooden dining table with a sour face. Boxes of food had arrived and one, in particr, attracted


    her. ¡®NO EGG¡¯ was written on it as Make doesn''t like eggs. A devilish smirk edged Selena''s lips.


    Zaden and the others walked into the dining table to see Selena, already there. One leg pulled up to


    the chair and take out box in her hand. She had already gone through a half box of the fried noodle.


    She didn''t bother to look up at any of them, including Zaden. They decide through mind-link that it''s


    best not to disturb her or she might run off again. They silently took their seats, Zaden being next to


    Selena and Make opposite her. Make kept stealing nces at Selena, hoping for some sort of


    reaction from her, but none came to her disappointment. She took her ¡®NO EGG¡¯ box and opened it,


    eyes focused on Selena. Suddenly, something squishy jumped from the box and hit her face. She


    looked down and a few frogs stood staring at her.


    ¡°AHHHH!!!¡± she screamed at the top of her voice and freaked the frogs as they started jumping forward


    onto her. She pushed her chair back still screaming and all others, except for Zaden and of course,


    Selena, pushed the chair back to avoid the frog. When all the frogs have jumped down from the table,


    the boys were busy catching and Make stomped her feet out of the cabin. Selena didn''t even flinch


    a bit and kept taking forking noodles little by little into her mouth. Zaden pinched his lips inwards to


    suppress hisughter. He then crossed his hands on the table edge and leaned forward


    ¡°Frogs? Seriously?¡± he is talking to Selena


    ¡°She started it, Zaden¡± Selena dropped her body front and held the table edge, snapping at him and he


    couldn''t control hisugh. He stretched his hand to embrace her head and pulled her in before kissing


    her forehead.


    ¡°She cares about you...and our baby...it''s a treasure for them. You would understand once your dad


    knows about the pregnancy. Then Make won''t look so crazy¡± that made Selena smile and Zaden


    too. Later, Make and Selena shook hands and gave up their fight.


    It is 4.45 pm when Selena and Zaden walked hand in hand, with their leader''s pack into Samrat


    Kingdom''s mansion. They were talking to each other andughing with Selena in the middle of Zaden


    and Orion. No one had arrived yet, so they all settled down with a cup of tea in themunal hall.


    Selena at the end of the table, Zaden, Make and Sitka to her right, Orion and Xavier to her left.


    Soon, one by one, the alphas walked into the room. They are amused at how punctual, calm and


    rxed their new Queen is, something they have never seen in Epsilon. She stood up and nodded at


    them with a graceful smile, followed by Mountain Manuka pack. Teas were served as soon as they all


    settled down, but waiting for one more alpha toe, Alpha Reimus. The others were briefing Selena


    on how things used to be around here. She was shocked but didn''t show it that much. She was


    listening attentively to Alpha Theodore when Alpha Reimus walked in. His eye ring sharp at Selena.


    Selena''s eye followed him with a cold face, till he came and sat down on her left.


    Belongs to (N)?vel/Drama.Org.


    ¡®Now there is our issue¡¯


    She mind-linked Mountain Manuka pack and they all looked at Reimus.


    ¡°I assume everyone is here?¡± Selena''s voice resonates through the table.


    ¡°Yes, Selena¡± Maximus said.


    ¡°So, do we have a final decision?¡± Selena asked again and Alpha Theodore lunged forward his chair


    and spoke on behalf of others.


    ¡°Dear, please do understand that what your asking for is aplicated choice for us. We have done so


    much to move this ind forward, every single pack has their own contribution and-¡° Selena cut him off


    ¡°With all due respect, Alpha Theodore, I do understand all the pack''s contribution. My question is,


    whether you would like to keep contributing, keep supporting me in the uing days or not. And


    there should be only 2 answers for that, yes or no¡±


    ¡®He is trying to confuse me, probably wanting a linear choice for Reimus¡¯ Selena thought to herself


    Alpha Theodore turned to his sides, observing Reimus. Reimus shook his head ¡®NO¡¯. Then his eyes


    panned to all other pack members and they nodded ¡®YES¡¯.


    ¡°10 alphas are with you, Selena¡± Theodore said and Selena''s eye darted to Reimus. There is no


    innocence in them, they are fierce now.


    ¡°Great!!! Now, the one pack that doesn''tply, please, leave the ind immediately.¡± Everyone


    stiffened.


    ¡°Wait, I change my mind¡± Reimus snapped his head up. Selena slowly stood up from her seat and


    paced step by step to him, running her finger through each member''s chair''s headrest, reading their


    mind one by one.


    ¡°Why did you oppose in the first ce?¡± Selena is behind Alpha Capsion


    ¡®Everyone knows why, because he doesn''t want to be under a woman.¡¯ Alpha Capsion''s mind voice in


    her ears. They are not mind-linking her nor do they know she can read minds. It is their crude, genuine


    thought.


    ¡°I was confused...¡± Reimus said


    ¡°And what made you change your mind now?¡± she is behind Alpha Derrick right now


    ¡®Because he is afraid of Zaden ck¡¯ his mind voice also entered her ears.


    ¡°I trust a Samrat bloodline would do a good job¡± Reimus said. Selena is now standing next to him. She


    pulled an empty chair and sat down, crossing her legs.


    ¡°Let''s forget about the bloodline thingy and talk only about us here. Now, I came from a human world


    into werewolf world. What I learned from both worlds is that an organization would only be intact if


    every member of it is ready to serve and fight for it. If one triS, there will be sabotages and difort,


    let it be billionairepanies or families, in our case, pack. If you are going to trip, as I said before, I


    have no issue. You don''t have to worry about rebooting. Everything that your pack needs for the next 6


    months will be provided from Samrat and you are on your own after that. But if you choose to stay and


    later days I find a glitch in the system, you know what will happen.¡± Selena''s eye dart to Zaden and


    Reimus followed her action. Zaden and the whole table were ring at him with full fury. He swallowed


    his saliva.


    ¡°So, how is it going to be?¡± Selena rxed back into her chair. There was a momentary silence in the


    room as everyone wait with anticipation.


    ¡°I...I will leave Que-sorry, Selena.¡± He stood up and so did Selena. Selena nodded with a pursed-lip,


    clearly disappointed with his decision.


    ¡°It should be a great loss to your team¡± Selena''s eyes scanned the room and many of her alphas


    nodded in agreement. She nodded back.


    ¡°But as I said, we wouldn''t want to force you to stay. I''m not Epsilon.¡± She reached her hand out with a


    smile. They shook hands and he left, with a heavy heart. The door behind her shut down and she took


    a deep breath in and out.


    ¡°What is next?¡± Selena sped her hand together, still standing on the other end of the table, away


    from others. Theodore exchanged looks with his alphas and they stood up, so did Zaden and his


    team.

 CHAPTER 63

    CHAPTER 63


    All 10 alphas ced their right hand over their heart and bowed, no words uttered but eptance by


    heart, Selena as their new alpha. A surge of energy greater thanst night radiated from her moon


    mark to her whole body. Her body feels hot and her skin tingles. Zaden was right, it is a power running


    through her veins, almost intoxicating her; almost. Her body was emitting a silver sheen, like an ice


    sculpture out of its cold storage. Her soul felt out of the body, it is now connecting with every single


    wolf, every single part of thend and the mansion. The 10 packs actually live on their own territory


    within the ind. No wonder why this works when the nature of wolf is territorial. No territory, no alpha,


    but there are 10 alphas there. So, there is 10 territory and they work is parts to defend the ind


    border. One pack doesn''t interfere with another pack''s border. Some territory practices their own edible


    garden while others do poultry. They exchange in barter system when needed but sometimes, they


    also buy from outside of the ind. Very few jeeps are avablepared to the number of people in


    here. There is a stream of river in the middle of the ind where kids from all the territory have


    gathered up, ying together. Selena''s mind could even see a possibly 8-year-old blonde boy giving


    roses to another, possibly 8-year-old blonde girl and then, he stood there twisting his body shyly.


    Selena let out a chuckle. She can see that Reimus is now, standing in front of his pack and exining


    to them their situation. They look upset and Selena frowned with a sigh. Further down her vision, a


    young couple kissing behind a tree in the woods. Selena blushed as it reminded her of her own lover.


    Her vision narrowing down, scanning through every single nook and cranny, observing everything until


    it widened to the seashore and panned across the horizon, where the bright orangy yellow sun stood


    mighty, reminding how humble the being under it. Selena holds that vision for a few seconds,


    breathtaking it is. She returned to the mansion and without her control, her visionnded on a room


    below the mansion. Bars after bars where filthy-looking men are bound. She panned from one cell to


    another cell and doesn''t like what she sees. Finally, freezing in front of a cell that is far more luxurious


    than the rest, with a bed, cuffs around all 4 edges and many weird-looking apparatuses hanging on the


    wall. She could only identify one of them, a whip. She snapped back to reality and the first thing sheThis text is property of N?/velD/rama.Org.


    sees is all the Mountain Manuka pack members standing really, really close to her. She jerked back in


    surprise.


    ¡°Oh, my good lord!!! Personal space, please¡± she huffed out and all the others retaliate to their seats


    with some clearing their throat. Selena took a moment to pull herself back and exhaled out before she


    looked up at the alphas.


    ¡°Why is there a bed and cuffs and stuffs in your dungeon?¡± Zaden and her Mountain Manuka pack


    frowned, notprehending what she is saying. Theodore hesitated and flustered.


    ¡°Well...it''s for Epsilon¡± he finally was able topose a sentence even if it doesn''t exin anything to


    Selena.


    ¡°Why, does he sleep there? He doesn''t have a bed here in the mansion?¡± Zaden questioned.


    ¡°He does...he does... but he also has a bad habit...¡± Theodore paused again and earned a cocked


    eyebrow from Selena. He sighed out


    ¡°He likes to... rape she-wolfs and sometimes even human women in that dungeon. He has a vicious


    taste in sex¡± Rowana, a female alpha just like Selena exined. Selena gasped in horror as her eyes


    widened. Zaden already stands up from his chair and heading towards her. It was clear in all 10 alphas


    faces how embarrassed they are with the facts behind the bed in dungeon.


    ¡°And...and all the apparatus on the wall?¡± she asked, still horrified. Zaden reached her, pulled her up by


    her arm and embraced her. He started whispering in her ears and all the other werewolves in there,


    tried so hard to mute down their hearing.


    ¡°Those are the things he must have use on the she-wolf under his control¡± he said to her ears


    ¡°Don''t be silly. There were spiky rods, Zaden¡± Selena is now looking up at Zaden and he gazed back at


    her, partially hoping she would understand. She red back at him for seconds, hoping he would deny


    what he just said or have a logical answer to her question, but he didn''t budge. Her eye widened and


    her palm slowly raised to her mouth, sealing them from horror. Her head snapped to the other alphas.


    ¡°Why the hell would someone do that to a woman? No no no!!! Why the hell didn''t you guys do


    something to stop him?¡±


    They remained silent.


    ¡°That''s their alpha, baby girl. How are they supposed to go against him?¡± Zaden eximed.


    ¡°But that''s not fair, can''t you stand up to him when you know, obviously, he is cruel? I mean, we would


    tell you if you were being cruel!!!¡± she is venting to Zaden


    ¡°Because...he gives you that option. Other alphas don''t do that. Pack members would be facing terrible


    punishments if they stand up to their alpha¡± Theodore pitched in, grabbing Selena''s attention. She


    looked back at Zaden when he was done, with a raised eyebrow like ¡®is it true'' and he nodded gently as


    if indicating ¡®yes¡¯. She just realized how linear he had been to his pack members and how super flexible


    he has been to her, tolerating all her little sarcasm and misbehaviors. No wonder why Make was so


    agitated the day she made them all kneel down in the pit.


    ¡°By the way, Luna is not bound to these rules. You are encouraged- no erase that-pulsory to stand


    up to your alpha when he goes out of line¡± he again, whispered to her ears.


    ¡°I guess Queen Aira didn''t get the memo, then¡± Selena said it a bit louder and they all chuckled.


    ¡°Moving on...¡± she pushed Zaden off her with both her palms on his chest and he pouted his lips,


    gesturing an invisible- contactless kiss to her. Added a smirk before turning and walking back to his


    seat. That devilish smirk and piercing eyes with thousands of hidden messages never fail to trigger her.


    Selena followed him like a kitten to sit at the other end, closer to the alphas, closer to her alpha. He


    kept that smirk, still gazing into her eye. She sat there fiddling with her hair between her fingers and


    chin in her palm, still admiring Zaden. The other in the table exchanged an unsure look, whether to


    wake them up from their trans or just let it be and walk out of here? Zaden stretched his arms under the


    table and pinched her thighs.


    ¡°Ouch!!!¡± She flinched back, straightening her back, effectively knocking her out of her trans. She


    looked around to see everyone''s eye on her. A tingle crept up her cheeks as she blushed terribly.


    Pretending nothing had happened, she cleared her throat and resumed the meeting.


    ¡°Next in agenda!!! I am technically your Queen and Zaden is your King, correct?¡± they all nodded


    ¡°So, I am your alpha and Luna to Mountain Manuka pack, correct?¡± they all nodded with a frown except


    for Zaden who is casual at the moment. He knows where this is going as they have discussed the


    previous night.


    ¡° Obviously, Mountain Manuka pack is considering joining us here, it shouldn''t be a problem. The


    opportunity for them to grow and excel is much much brighter here. But...when I left, we had poachers


    and rogues invading those mountains, probably initiated by Epsilon but they havee to a habit of


    hunting in those mountains...¡± she paused and observed their reaction. They are still frowning and


    listening to her.


    ¡°As far as I understand, I have the ability to listen and control those animals¡± Selena is now looking at


    Orion and he nodded


    ¡°Those abilities have no or minimal use here¡± Her eye hasn''t moved away from Orion and he nodded


    again.


    ¡°What is the purpose of having an ability if I can''t use them?¡± Orion is now irritated.


    ¡°Where are you going with this?¡± he asked Selena


    ¡°Well, after a lot of thinking, WE havee to a solution. I would be cing a werewolf that would


    even die for me, here, on my behalf and I will be in Mountain Manuka¡± Selena pointed at Zaden and


    herself, but her eye still on Orion. Everyone in the pack became restless.


    ¡°What if he is also like Epsilon? How can we trust anyone else but a Samrat to do any good to us?¡±


    Capsion spoke


    ¡°I understand your concern but Epsilon was not chosen by Ozrain. He left the pack with Queen Aira


    and never revisited his pack. If he had, Queen Aira would have been in charge and you all wouldn''t


    have to face Epsilon, am I right?¡± everyone nodded as she made sense.


    ¡°Likewise, I would still be in charge of major decisions. We will form a way to connect where all the 11


    alphas would be able to contact me and vice versa, anytime we wish. Unlike the previous King, you


    have the liberty to talk to me about my alpha and I will face it personally.¡± Selena''s eye panned from the


    other alphas to Orion and he is feeling ufortable now. He slightly leaned his head back


    ¡°Wait, why the fuck are you looking at me like that for?¡± his eyes are wide in fear and a smirk carved


    Selena''s lip


    ¡°Orion....¡± Zaden pitched in.


    ¡°No, why is she looking at me like that ?¡± Orion is getting more and more flustered.


    ¡°Listen¡± Selena put her hand up and he is not calming down


    ¡°You are sending me away? How can you do that? I am your beta!!!¡± he is venting at Zaden


    ¡°She made me sell you, I was cornered¡± Zaden has his hand in the air now, defensive.


    ¡°She can''t even buy an ice cream on her own and needs me to buy that for her. Where the hell did she


    get the money to buy me?¡± Selena cleared her throat. She rubbed her neck with her palm and now


    looking at her knees.


    ¡®I assume you would have heard usst night...¡¯ Zaden mind-linked Orion personally


    ¡°Oh my god!!! ¡° Orion eximed aloud as he threw his hands up wide in the air.


    ¡°I can''t believe you sold me to this little brat for sex!!!¡± every alpha of Samrat packughed out loud at


    Orion''s outburst


    ¡°A little correction- amazing sex...¡± Zaden said low. Selena red at him before running her palm


    through her face in frustration


    ¡°Would you two please stop it!!!¡± she snapped at both of them


    ¡°Orion, think about it. Those who want to further their studies in Mountain Manuka can do that under


    your care, we can continue to develop Mountain Manuka and we will be there to protect the animals


    too¡± Selena was counting her fingers when she lined out her reasons


    ¡°And...you get to stay away from all the sex noises¡± Make added, earning a re from Selena


    ¡°Orion, please...There is no one whom I would trust and better for this job than you...¡± she grabbed his


    arms and her eye is pleading with him. Unknowingly, his love for her made him melt.


    ¡°Fine!!! ¡° he spat those words out and Selena pped her hand, cheering for him. So did all of them.


    Selena was satisfied that they all had epted him. Now, she can return to Mountain Manuka with


    peace of mind.

 CHAPTER 64

    CHAPTER 64


    It took them another 2 more days to part away from Orion and Samrat Kingdom. They made some


    basic decisions like vacating the mansion and using it as a school while Orion wanted to stay in the


    cabin in the wood, as a remembrance of Selena and Zaden. They took this opportunity to explore the


    land, together with Make, Xavier and Sitka. Selena specifically wanted to go to the river stream


    running in the midst of the kingdom which she saw the day she became alpha. Selena insisted on


    getting into the waters and so, the rest followed her. Zaden stood shirtless behind her, embracing her


    waist gently just in case she slips. The rest weren''t that far, just a few feet away and soon got into a


    fight of ¡®Who can hold breath underwater the longest. A war of sshing water followed and Orion


    quickly cruised to Selena, standing in front of her as she grabbed his arms, peeping over at the others.


    Orion felt a stab in between his chest as he gazed at Selena. Zaden eyes were watching him as well as


    a hint of possessiveness lifted its head. Orion raised his head, facing Zaden


    ¡®Are you sure you can handle her by yourself?¡¯ he asked through mind-link to Zaden. Zaden smiled in


    return


    ¡®It''s just that we both have always been her cage of safety, ever since she found out about being a


    werewolf¡¯ Orion added


    ¡®She has a whole pack as her safety fort once she bes their Luna but still, they won''t be as good


    as you and me, I agree. I will do my best¡¯ Zaden said and Orion smiled.


    N?velDrama.Org owns all ? content.


    In that 2 days, most of Orion''s belonging from Mountain Manuka has arrived at Samrat. Make and


    Selena are helping to set everything up in the cabin. Orionidzily on the bed the whole time,


    bouncing a small ball off the wall in front of him. Selena has been enduring his tantrum for quite a while


    that now, she is fed up.


    ¡°Aren''t you going to help us?¡± he shook his head ¡®NO¡¯. His feelings for Selena have been raging ever


    since he agreed to stay in Samrat. He is already missing her so much. These past 2 days, he spent


    most of his time tagging along with Selena, watching her secretly behind Zaden, touching her at any


    opportunity he gets which is very seldom since Zaden is always there with her. Deep down he knows


    what he is doing is wrong, but when thinking about being away from her, probably forever, it hurts him


    so much. He loses control. His lips are itching to kiss her, onest time and she is not doing anything to


    ease his pain too. Her hands came in great precision catching the ball that is just inches away from his


    face. She looked at him coldly with an eyebrow cocked


    ¡°Make¡± she turned around and threw the ball to Make. She caught it and threw it back at Selena.


    Selena threw the ball back and this kept on for a few more turns before Orion stood up and dashed to


    Selena who was about to catch the ball again, grinning wide. He wrapped his hand across Selena''s


    tummy from behind. He bends down and caught her hands which have grasped the ball now. Because


    of his bend, now his nose is buried in her hair. He took the opportunity and inhaled her scent as deep


    as possible, minty orange. Make sensed an rm and stood up, swallowing her saliva with frozen


    eye.


    ¡°You smell so...refreshing...¡± Selena snapped her eye up. Nobody, except for Zaden, ever talks about


    her smell. She slides his hand off her.


    ¡°Zaden thinks so too...¡± she didn''t look back and walked out of the room. Zaden was pacing around the


    ground at the front porch. She saw him and paced with solemn face to him. Zaden turned around once


    he sensed her and beamed a beautiful smile towards her. He opened his hand slightly inviting her into


    his embrace and she walked straight into his chest. Sheid her cheeks into his chest, enjoying the


    warmth and scent that never fails to indulge her in serenity.


    ¡°What''s wrong?¡± he is worried seeing her upset.


    ¡°Nothing¡± she shook her head in his chest. Heid a kiss on her head and his eyes snapped up


    immediately with fierce, his body stiffened. Sensing this, Selena looked up at him


    ¡° You smell different¡± he said coldly, his eye still staring forward. His heart ached terribly as boiling


    blood is pumped at high speed through them. The smell of another male on his mate, his


    possessiveness kicked in full force. He is intimidating or straight-on scary to Selena.


    ¡°Orion...It''s...It''s just Orion...¡± she stuttered. Her eye flickered around and her heartbeat racing, clear to


    Zaden at this much of close approximate. Zaden stepped aside in fury, ready to attack Orion.


    ¡°Zaden, please...¡± Selena grabbed his arms and he stopped dead, eyes still fuming at the cabin.


    ¡°It''s... it''s not like he had never touched me before...let it go¡± she said low to Zaden and he turned his


    head slightly and looked down at her pleading eye.


    ¡°But you had never felt ufortable to his touch before, just like how your father or Aaron or Ozrain


    touches you. Now, it is different, isn''t it? Your heartbeat is shooting up, you are stuttering and your eyes


    are glistening with tears¡± Selena was taken back by his observation ability while he stood there with a


    tight fist.


    ¡°Which means his touch is inappropriate. And why would you feel it''s inappropriate? Because he is


    touching you like I do, am I correct?¡± his voice is low with a grumble, like Satan from hell, sending a


    shiver down her spine. Selena''s eye trailed down to his abs. He had figured it out, spot-on from the


    minute changes in her. He grabbed her chin and lifted her head up, harshly


    ¡°Nobody touches you the way I do, baby girl. Nobody touches what is mine¡± he moved really close to


    her, almost touching her nose tip with his but with a threatening eye. He took a step to the side and


    stride to the cabin


    ¡® I forbid you from talking about this, ever¡¯


    A Samrat''smand and his body involuntarily stopped. He turned around.


    ¡°Just a few days, Zaden... He is already hurt. Just let it go¡± she begged him. His eyes are red now. He


    zoomed past Selena. She grabbed his arms but he threw his arms up in the air, jerking her off and


    walked away into the forest, probably for a run.


    Although she had begged Zaden to stop, she couldn''t be her usual self with Orion. She kept her


    distance from him and they talked very little. It tears his heart apart. He regrets the tiny little move that


    he made earlier today, in the morning. He walked into his room in the cabin. Everything looked neatly


    organized. He sat on his bed with elbows on his knees and hands sps together in front of his face,


    shuffling the bedsheet and pulled the ball on his pillow to roll down. It tumbled down till it stopped by


    Orion''s thigh. Orion pulled his face out from his sped hand. He stared at the ball before grabbing it


    by his hand. Something hit him, as the frustration panted up within him bursts. He smashed the ball to


    the opposite wall. With a loud scream, he punched through his cupboard, putting a hole in it. He swept


    away everything on his console table. The bedsidemp was next, smashing it into pieces. He took the


    lampstand and smashed it against his headboard. Zaden and the whole pack ran to the room and


    opened the door, only to find Orion sitting on the bed edge, face down. He is dripping in sweat and his


    hands are shaking from his forceful grip on the bed. His breathing is ragged. Zaden scanned around


    the room, shocked by the level of damage he had done. Make wanted to walk to him, pass Zaden


    but Zaden put out his arms as a barrier. He thought for a minute, before looking over his shoulder at the


    now terrified Selena. He grabbed her hands and pulled her to the front, into the room and closed the


    door behind her. He stood by the door not wanting to leave her alone with him, at the same time, only


    she can remedy him. He is stuck between his love and friendship.


    In the room, Selena stood puzzled, fiddling with the hem of her shirt. She is scared to go anywhere


    near him, although she is 101% sure he is not going to hurt her. After being immobilized for what felt


    like an eternity, Selena approached Orion, step by step. He is still on the bed edge, with elbows on his


    knees. Selena stood in front of him. Her trembling hand reached to grab his hands and he pulled it


    away harshly. She flinched back and her trembling became worse. She doesn''t dare to touch him


    anymore but stood still there a few more seconds. Her own thought is torn into pieces at the moment.


    Maybe asking him to take her ce is too much? Maybe it is a bad idea? How can she counteract it?


    Just reverse everything and be the alpha, herself? They will figure out the restter. This means she


    has to separate from Zaden temporarily which racked her, of course, but at the same time, it feels


    unfair to put someone through this for her. She wiped away a drop of tear escaped down her cheeks


    without her permission. She took a step back and Orion snapped her eyes up at her. He stretched his


    hands to grab hers and pulled her into hisp, all in a lightning sh. He buried his head in the nook of


    her neck. She shrugged in dismissal and tried to push him away but he grabbed her wrist, that has


    found its way next to his chest. His nose is inhaling her scent, making her flinch every time his nose


    touches her neck. Her lips trembling.


    ¡°I am sorry...¡± his voice is contradictorily calm. Selena gulped air.


    ¡°Orion...this is obviously stressful for you. You can go back to Mountain Manuka¡± Orion slowly moved


    out of his hideout with a frown.


    ¡°What?¡± he asked and Selena nodded frantically


    ¡°I dismiss you. You can go back home. I will take care of this pack like how I am supposed to¡± tear


    edged at her eye line, threatening to fall anytime now.


    ¡°Zaden cane to visit me every week...no biggy¡± she smiled gently but apanied with that tear-


    filled eyes, it looks dreadful.


    ¡°Were you always this crazy?¡± he smiled and pulled her hand that he had grabbed earlier, resting her


    palm on his trimmed beard and Selena chuckled.


    ¡°I fell for you, you didn''t. I came to terms with it, thinking at least I would be able to see you from


    distance for the rest of my life. What difference does it make when we switch ces? Me going back to


    Manuka only makes things worse because then, 2 of us must endure losing you. It will be 100 times


    worse for Zaden since he has to depart with his love, mate and his baby. That is not going to happen.


    You are going back to Manuka.¡± He said as calmly as possible.


    ¡°But...¡± Selena was about to speak out a lengthy speech but Orion ced his index finger on her lips,


    shutting her down. Her soft lips against his skin triggered unwanted reactions and desires within him.


    His eyes lingered at her lips, absorbing each and every line and curves on them, not to mention the


    inviting rosy tone they are. His hands slipped from her lips to thrust between her hair and neck. Another


    hand holding her mid-back. He tilted his head, approaching with hesitation. Realizing what he is


    thinking of doing, Selena gasped and that stopped him, head still tilted and his lips a few inches apart


    from hers.


    ¡°No, Orion...I am not yours. You have kissed me before, when I wasn''t anyone''s possession. But not


    today. I am Zaden''s and the weird thing is, he is mine too...he is all I need...and all I want...¡± at this very


    moment, she realized how much she actually loved the other man behind those closed doors. No


    reasons, no logical exnations, no scientific or psychological facts. Just blind love. When he imed


    her as him, she refused to be his property. But now, when the feeling is mutual, she is eager to im


    him and hide him in her chest, not letting anyone near him. Her hands slide between them, pushing him


    away, slowly parting from his warmth. She stood up, biting her lips in uncertainty. Could she have


    stirred his anger again? She froze there, waiting for his permission. Orion dropped his head down and


    chuckled. He is nowhere more than a friend in her heart, it is clear now. What needs to be done, should


    be done. He stood up with newfound determination and courage, grabbed her hand and pulled her


    behind him. Dashed open the cabin door to see Zaden''s back. His hand was grabbing a wooden chair


    with force, enough to break it. Zaden looked over his shoulder with a frown when he heard a thud


    behind him. Orion smirked at him and pulled Selena to his front, enough force to toss her to Zaden.


    She trots to Zaden and he turned around to catch her. Tears rolling down her cheeks as she hid her


    face between his chest. Zaden cupped her head and tilted her up.


    ¡°What happen?¡± he is concerned for her. Selena forgot to answer him, losing herself in his bronzy


    chocte eye.


    ¡°She won''t talk, cat caught her tongue¡± Orion said, earning full attention from Zaden as he darted his


    eyes to him.


    ¡°She won''t go anywhere out of Mount Manuka, Zaden caught her heart¡± he smiled gently with arms


    across his chest and Zaden chuckled


    ¡°Now, get out of here and mark her as soon as possible, so that she doesn''t tear any other male''s


    heart¡± Orion said sternly.


    The next morning itself, Mountain Manuka pack took off to their home, leaving behind Orion in Samrat


    with Make and Selena in full tears.


    ¡° 15days! Just 15 days. You have turned our life''s upside down and now, you are crying for what?


    Regret not doing enough damage?¡± Orion raised his eyebrow with a smile, mocking Selena. She stifled


    augh between her tears.


    ¡°Shut up¡± Selena still sobbing


    ¡°See you sissy.Send my regard to Dahlia¡± Orion


    ¡°Be good, ok?¡± Make caressed his cheeks.


    The boys exchanged their hugs before they left for Mountain Manuka, leaving behind a childhood


    friend, a warrior and most of all, a trustworthy Beta.


    What blossomed between Selena and Zaden is beyond hormonal and chemistry. It was a mutual share


    of love, of two people of the same kind and equal status-widely epted and blessed. But what about


    Orion''s love towards her? He still has feelings for a woman that will never be his. He left everything


    behind so that she could be happy with the man she loved. Is his love a sin?


    Epsilon, a cruel king, who had killed Elisa for the woman he loved and for her happiness. He might be


    cruel to the whole world but he never gave away Queen Aira''s true nature and epted death happily,


    why? In hope that she would still be happy after his death. He might havemitted a thousand sins,


    but is his love for Aira a sin?


    Elisa and Ozrain had loved mutual love towards each other, just like Zaden and Selena, only they are


    from different kind and status. Ozrain left her because his people were his priority but he never lived a


    happy life afterward. The moment he sees the opportunity to get her back, he didn''t spare a second. Is


    his love a sin?


    When Ozrain realized that he had lost Elisa, he spent the rest of his life, looking for an unknown child.


    Daisymitted suicide to save her daughter. Is that not considered love?


    Love shouldn''t be something based on good looks, money or status. It is an unconditional feeling


    towards each other. If none of the above love is a sin, then why love between the same gender is still


    taboo, is still considered a sin? Or age difference is greatly stressed when a young woman falls for an


    old man? Or status difference still ys a major role in certain cultures around the world?


    An outrageous man set the quest to concur the world. Everything and anything in his path turns into


    ashes, if that what he wishes. That much of power, that much of courage. Till the day he meets love of


    his life. He is believed to havemitted suicide for that one woman. That man was Adolf Hitler and


    his love was Eva Braun


    Everything is fair in love and war......

 CHAPTER 65

    CHAPTER 65


    8 monthster...


    A white jeep is cruising leisurely, bumping through a dirt road, lined both sides by thick forest. A few


    human workers and a heavy auger machine hustling at the starting point of the road. Orion''s eye


    inspected the poles and wires lied in roles by the roadside. A lot has changed since thest time he


    had been to Mountain Manuka. A bumpy ride towards the mountain valley is now smoother, thanks to


    Selena who had initiated the idea of clearing trees and making a leveled dirt road so that pack


    members could travel faster in and out of the mountain. It has also opened the gate to civilized


    development, beginning with electricity supply. Soon, telephone lines and the inte would also be


    installed. This is the second time Orion riding into Mountain Manuka. He arrived at the brick house and


    the first thing he sees is Selena''s friend and her brother, Aaron.


    This is the second time they have gathered at the Mountain Manuka. Orion came exactly 12days after


    Selena had left him in charge of Samrat Kingdom, for their wedding, a day before the full moon. Zaden


    had decided to get legally wed, since he wants all his properties and funds to be essible to Selena,


    just in case something happens to him. Challenging Epsilon had really opened his eyes in more than


    one way.


    A simple wedding by Lake Khalifa, where most of their lovable memories took ce, where Selena


    conceived their baby. Grasses were trimmed short on that day. A line of wooden handrails installed, all


    the way from a series of white wooden dividers, forming apartment for the bride till the end of Lake


    Khalifa, where a flower arch, entwined with white roses from end to end. A chiffon silhouette fringed the


    floral arch, extending down to the handrail, curving their way to the bride''spartment at the end.


    Wooden benches lined in a perfect manner on both sides of the handrail, followed by a line ofnterns


    on one side and blocks of candles next to the aisle, providing subtle flicker of light on the sunset


    evening. It also kept Make edgy with continuous worry that something is going to set on fire. In the


    mid of the handrail, as aisle, nks of woods lined up for the convenience of the bride, drizzled with


    white rose petals. The horizon was especially beautiful, with orangy yellow ombre painted across the


    horizon of mountain peaks, spreading serenity down the hill, across the water body to the gathered


    werewolves and humans. Zaden had trimmed his beard a little bit closer than usual, his mustache


    slimmer than usual. He couldn''t bring himself to a clean shave as it may look weird. He stood there by


    the floral arch, in a fresh, crisp slim-cut tuxedo, ck coat with white inners shirt,pleted with a bow,


    looking exceptionally dashing. He kept ncing at his Tag Heuer wristwatch, face filled with tension


    even though the bride is notte.


    ¡°Rx man...¡± Orion nudged him from the sides. His best man isn''t looking bad himself. Zaden red


    at him


    ¡°I did all the arrangements. Do you think she would like it?¡± He asked low at Orion.


    ¡°I think she would be more focused on you rather than the decorations, Zaden¡± Orion raised his


    eyebrows.


    ¡°Just don''t get cold feet, because if you don''t marry her, there is a lot of man here who would¡± Xavier


    from between Zaden and Orion, earning a kick on his foot from Orion. He pursed his lips tight to


    restrain his screaming pain.


    ¡°What??? Are you nning to hi-jack her or something?¡± Zaden asked him with a frown and he started


    stammering when the guitar strung a sweet tune, Let Her Go by Passenger, chosen by Grandpa Kai


    after much debate. Everyone''s attention panned to the entryway. There she stood. A whitece


    wedding dress with a plunging A-neckline that stops at her mid-chest and the bottom extends all the


    way down in a slim cut. A skin-toned fabric lined the back of whitece flowers, making them pop


    against her skin. Anotheryer of white chiffon re skirt with a delicatece belt hangs from her waist


    down into a long trail behind her. The whole dress fits her perfectly as it hangs by a strap on her


    shoulders. Her hair hasn''t changed much, just the curls are more prominent, bouncy and with a side


    partition. Strands from her hairline rolled to join at her the back of her head and a few baby breath


    tastefully decorates those rolls. A simple rose gold eyeshadow making her grey eye seemed rounder


    and popped. Her lips with light pink matte lipstick and blushing peach blush. A gentle smile and a pair


    of twinkling eyesplete the look. Holding a bouquet of white roses and baby breath in one hand and


    her other hand grasping tights on her father''s arms, as if her life depends on it. She is obviously


    tensed, indicated by the notch on her throat and trembling breath. She walked down the path.


    ¡°There is my angel¡± Zaden mumbled to himself but Orion, Sitka and Xavier heard him too. His eyes


    widened slightly, frozen at her. His heart skipped a beat when he firstid his eyes on his bride. A soft


    smile on his lips, like a twitch and twinkle in his eyes indicates how amused he is. A priceless reaction


    that can never be erased from memory and Selena didn''t waste an ounce of it, observing his every


    single gesture. She finally came to the end of her journey and Leonardo let her hand go, leaned down


    to kiss his daughter''s forehead before handing her hands to Zaden.


    ¡°Yours to love, Alpha Zaden...¡± he said and when Zaden took her hand, he stepped to the side with


    glistening eyes. Zaden was sure he felt a tremble from her fingers. He reached her knuckles with his


    thumb and caressed them gently and she bit her lower lips before letting a heart-stealing smile. Orion


    bit his lips hard, exerting self-control as he turned his head away from them.


    Make rushed to Selena and took her bouquet away, so that she is free to take both of her man''s


    hands. Zaden sighed out slowly


    ¡°You...are...breathtaking...¡± she flushed as goosebumps erupt from her tailbone to her neck.


    ¡°Are you ready?¡± the ministry asked low and they nodded. With that, he proceeded with the formalities


    and they said their vows and epted each other as husband and wife. A drop of tear rolled down the


    corner of her eye after she said ¡®I do¡¯. Zaden tilted his head and brushed off the teardrop with his


    thumb. He then held her chin as gingerly as possible. With a gentle smile, he leaned forward and


    ced a brief kiss on her lips, sending the crowd to awe. Selena chuckled at the end of the kiss, Zaden


    followed. Leonardo, Aaron, Mother Ruth and Grandpa Kai are all wiping their tears with a tissue and


    sniffling their running noses. Orion reached into his pocket and pulled out a blue velvet box as did


    Make. Make opened the box first revealing a simple gold ring. Selena slides it on his ring finger


    and when he looked up, the intensity in his eyes shook her to core. Orion then opened Zaden''s box.


    Selena''s smile faded as her eye widened a little. A square, radiant cut diamond, at least 22 carats, with


    a pair of amethyst on either side and smaller diamonds at the sides of the purple Amethyst, in an


    almost invisible gold ring base.


    ¡°Do you like it?¡± Zaden whispered to Selena and she rolled her eye. What a stupid question at their


    wedding aisle. What will he do if she says she doesn''t like it? Run to the city and buy another one?


    Wait, he might.


    ¡°I love it...¡± he took the ring with a deep inhale and exhales before sliding it on her finger. He looked at it


    one more time.


    ¡°Perfect for my Queen¡± and she chuckled. He held her hand and pulled it forward, another hand snaked


    to her lower back, embracing her to him in a swift. He freed his grip on her hand and entangled her hair


    from the nape of her neck, before smashing his lips to her, inhaling deeply as if this is the first time their


    kissing. He has been itching to kiss her ever since she showed up down the aisle. Thousands of


    butterflies invade their inner spirit, weakening them for each other. She couldn''t ask for a more perfect


    wedding, in her context that is. The crowd wooed even louder for them. Right at the end of the kiss,


    when Selena slowly opened her eye, she-wolfs around the ce opened thentern lined up all around


    the venue and outbursts fireflies, like millions of them. Selena saw thosenterns out of the corner of


    her eye and thought those are lit by candles. Her mouth is slightly ajar as she gasped and her eye


    widens. The whole crowd gasped and murmured. A magical outburst of stars on earth, making the


    event seem surreal. When the fireflies had flown away, she looked down at Zaden. He shook his head


    and nudged at Orion. Orion smiled gently


    ¡°My wedding gift to our little Bambi...¡± Selena hugged him by his neck and ced a kiss on his cheek.


    At least she loves him this much which wasforting enough for him.


    ¡°Thank you...¡± Selena said


    ¡°And a load of ice cream waiting in the house¡± he whispered to her ears, making Selena grin even


    wider.


    That night, Zaden and Selena spent the most wonderful time in bed-soft, gentle and loving. She is


    completely worn out andid tucked in his bed, in his room, under his ck silk duvet pulled just right


    above her chest, still exposing her cleavage to him. Zadenid next to her on his side, the duvet cover


    till just below his navel. An elbow had him hoisted up, hovering at Selena''s side and the hand at the


    end of that elbow, fiddling with her hair. His other hand free, squeezing her hand, cing a kiss on


    them every now and then. His eyes gazed deep into Selena''s, who God knows how long. Selena


    chuckles


    ¡°What are you looking at?¡± she asked low between her fragile state


    ¡°Nothing... you know how beautiful you were today, Mrs. ck?¡± he said and Selena chuckled even


    more


    ¡°I do Mr. ck, I saw it in your eyes...¡± Zaden chuckled and leaned for another kiss.


    The following night, Zaden and Selena ran to Lake Khalifa again, for their marking. It is supposed to be


    in front of the whole pack but Zaden refused to. He doesn''t want to be distracted by anything, he wants


    to have every drop of her for himself. She was wearing a simple peach, knee-length, strapped dress


    with a little gold ribbon at her waist. Zaden was wearing a grey v-neck T-shirt and blue jeans.


    ¡°Who does shopping for you?¡± he asked and Selena bite her lips


    ¡°Make¡±


    ¡°Well, she knows what suits you...¡± Selena smiled and pulled him down by his neck and they had a


    short clip of passionate kissing. Zaden broke away with panting breath


    ¡°Are you ready?¡± he asked and she swallowed her saliva, before shaking her head with timid eye


    Content provided by N?velDrama.Org.


    ¡°You scared?¡± she nodded frantically like a small girl


    Zaden looked around, licking his lip and thinking for a second. The moon shining high in the dark sky


    ¡°Ok, maybe not now¡± he said


    ¡°Really?¡± Selena asked in disbelief and he nodded before kissing her neck down to her chest and to


    her breast. Before they realize what is going on, they were naked on the riverbank. Zaden was


    exploring her in and out, ying in multiple areas at the same time, pushing her high into pleasure, the


    level she had never reached in the past month. His tongue swirled around her nipple while his other


    hand caressed her knub, making her arch her back. She was dripping wet when Zaden couldn''t take it


    anymore and he shuffled in front of her and thrust slowly into her, earning a lip-biting moan from her.


    Zaden continued slowly leaning forward, burying his nose in her neck, inhaling his favorite scent in the


    whole world. Each thrust initiates a set of sparks between them, a perfect mixture of pain and pleasure,


    just like how it was at their first time. Selena''s breath hiked and her leg muscle trembling, as a swirl of


    tornado built up at the bottom of her stomach.


    ¡°Don''t, hold it...¡± Zaden said and she has no idea how to hold it in. In an attempt, she clenched her butt


    muscles and it stopped the outburst but increased her suffering as her vaginal muscles narrowed also.


    Zaden let out a loud groan


    ¡°Arghhh...fuck...¡± he ced both his hands next to her head, pushing himself to hover on top of her. His


    eyes gazing straight into hers as his movement increased in speed. There was something other than


    pleasure in it, wary? Care? Tenderness? A frown as his mouth opened a bit, restraining his animal


    instinct. He pushed his hands off ground, his thumb running over her knub. A newfound pleasure made


    every single muscle in her body tremble and clench. She squirmed even forcefully and she fisted the


    dirt next to her


    ¡°ZADEN...¡± she let out a screaming moan.


    ¡°Yes baby...scream my name...¡± and she let out a few more screams before biting the back of her hand


    with squeeze shut her eye. Zaden grabbed her hand and threw it away before entering two of his


    fingers into her mouth. She sucked hard on his fingers, trying her best to hold her orgasm. Zaden threw


    his head back with a hiss as his breathing is failing to support him. A few seconds before he was close,


    he fell front, to her neck


    ¡°Cum for me, Alpha Selena¡± he knows the magic word and she let herself free, releasing a fountain of


    orgasm onto Zaden. At the same time, she was about to cum, Zaden extended his fang and let them


    pierce through her neck, right at the curves where his leather chain is resting now. She screamed at the


    top of her voice. It felt like 10 orgasms stirring within her at once, a bliss of magic engulfing her. A bright


    light blinded their vision. The sh blipped away and there stood the man in her dreams, her dream


    crush, so to speak. White shirt and blue jeans in the midst of a rose garden. He casually turned around


    with a slight smile on his lips. Bronzy chocte eye, ck hair and trimmed facial hair. It was Zaden,


    stretching his arms to take hers. Selena, bewitched, took his hand. Her soultching onto his soul at


    that very second, swirling beatitude around her, as if she is in her own personal paradise. The pain was


    also there but greatly masked by her glee. She bites on his fingers unintentionally and he endured it, so


    that she won''t feel the pain in her neck. His heart raised 100 times faster at the touch of her soul. He


    felt the same as Selena only he has to maintain his foot on earth while she let go, freeing her soul. He


    held a few more seconds, just to make sure he hadpleted the marking and released her neck. Her


    breathing calmed down immediately. Zaden kissed her marking wound beforepping it, sealing the


    pierced skin. Selena let go of his finger in her mouth and Zaden dropped next to her. His whole body is


    trembling and sweating profusely. His breath is storming as heid there closing his eye. Selena


    managed to gather herself after much effort and she looked at Zaden. He looks like he just had a heart


    attack. Selena is not familiar with werewolf rituals but when she turned to look at him, an instinct struck


    her. His exposed neck is attracting her like a ma. Her fangs came out without any effort from her.


    She couldn''t fight it, her lips felt dry. Giving up fighting, she leaned to her side. Her breast touching his


    chest, one of her hands over his shoulder and she kissed below his earlobes. She tilted her head


    slightly, letting her fang pierce through his skin.


    ¡°SELENA NO!!!¡± Zaden screamed and groaned. He wasn''t ready for another round of overwhelming


    pleasure but she has already prated him. His body trembled, he struggled to get a grip. He was


    afraid he would identally push her or hit her. He grabbed his own hair. Selena let go of him and


    mimicked his action earlier, licking the wound and blow gently on the wound. She observed in


    amusement at how fast the wound closed itself. She looked up, Zaden eye gold and he is sweating like


    crazy. She wiped his sweat with her hands. He grabbed her hand and slowly opened his eye to look at


    Selena. He observed her face for a minute.


    ¡°Damn... Selena, that was...¡± he could formte words as his breathing stopped him. Selena ces a


    finger over his lips.


    ¡°Shu...I know how it was, I was there too, remember...¡± she is also panting and sweating. Zaden


    chuckled and looked down at her neck. 2 red dots, that would soon turn ck on her wless skin. He


    touched that mark and a sudden zap felt on her spine. She closed her eyes savoring the feeling. Zaden


    chuckled at her. Theyid there with Selena on his chest tillte at night.


    ¡°I thought you said not today?¡± her fingers circled his arms.


    ¡°No...I said MAYBE not today... it''s not my fault you miss interpreted.¡± He looked down at her and she


    scowled at him.

 CHAPTER 66

    CHAPTER 66


    Orion had just parked his car at the front yard of the red brick house. He was greeted by a tight, manly


    hug from Zaden. He sure looks terrible with an undereye bag and an untrimmed beard.


    ¡°How is she doing? Heard her contraction kicked in¡± Orion''s first question is and always regards


    Selena. Being next to Zaden and Selena, doesn''t hurt as much as it did before since he had marked


    her. He is more protective of her.


    ¡°Not good!!! I didn''t expect this from Sitka¡± Zaden said with a sigh.


    ¡°Sitka??? I''m talking about Selena!!!¡± Orion frowned in confusion. Has Zaden finally gone cuckoo?


    ¡°You will understand soon. Come¡± Zaden guided him to the back of the red brick house.


    Orion and Selena''s family and friends left the next day after marking and thank god, they did. Her


    pregnancy was a roller coaster and because only Zaden can handle her, he brings her along to every


    trip out of the mountain, dropping her at her father''s or Orion''s ce and wille back within hours to


    be with her. First 3 months, she suffered terrible morning sickness to the point she lost 8 kg out of her


    body weight, always fatigued and pale. She refused to eat much and Zaden will be force-feeding her,


    little by little. She couldn''t bring in water near her mouth before her nausea kicks in. She was


    extremely dehydrated, so Zaden will mix soft drinks or juice with water for her. From the fourth month of


    pregnancy onwards, Selena''s hormones went crazy. Her morning sickness wasn''t that bad and she


    gained weight, specifically in all the curves making her extra curvy, plum and sexy. Her skin glowed and


    her sexual drive spiked up. Zaden was always tired due to ack of rest and sleep. He chucked down


    mugs and mugs of coffee on daily basis just to keep himself alert but the caffeine didn''t help much


    because he is a werewolf. She would corner him at any spot of the house, whenever she is lusting,


    bind his hands back with hers and feed choctes to him, mouth to mouth, turning him on. He would


    then follow her to bed like a puppy. Starting from her 5th month, her mood swing kicked in and again,


    Zaden was her victim. She would cry, out of nowhere and Zaden will carry her in his arms, coaxing her.


    ¡°You won''t love me the same if it''s a baby girl...¡± she says through her sobs.


    ¡°Baby...I will love you more...¡± Zaden coaxes her.


    ¡°No, you won''t...¡± Selena


    ¡°Yes, I will...¡± Zaden


    ¡°No....liar¡± Selena


    ¡°Ok fine, I won''t. Happy?¡± He cocked his eyebrow. After a pause, Selena pouted her lips more and


    started crying louder.


    ¡°What''s going on?¡± Now Mother Ruth had joined her, with a mug of Pepsi.


    ¡°Zaden said...he... doesn''t love me¡± Selena through her sobs as Zaden threw his hand in the air,


    frustrated. Mother Ruth snapped her head at Zaden.


    ¡°ZADEN!!!¡± Mother Ruth''s eye almost popped out of her socket. You don''t tell that to a pregnant


    woman. Thanks to Make, Zaden was able to escape on a ¡®pack-rted emergency¡¯.


    She would feel really ufortable and curse him for impregnating her, which he endured with nothing


    but a smile or a sarcasticment. Then, all of a sudden would shower love on him, pinching his


    cheeks, biting his shoulders, insisting on showering with him or for him to sleep on her chest which is


    getting tougher with her baby belly growing fast. She even insisted to cook for him since she was never


    allowed to stand near the heat, after the wedding. At 7th month, her feet started swelling, making it


    ridiculous to walk around, hence she stopped tagging Zaden to visit her father or Orion. So, he avoided


    most of his trips or pushing them to Draven. Even if he has to go, he made sure toe back by night


    and Selena would always be waiting for him at the door, weing him home with her bedazzling


    smile. Now, she is close topleting 9 months. She gets falsebor pain every now and then. Zaden


    was always next to her, submerging her in the tub of hot water, or massaging her feet and shoulders or


    cing a hot water bag on her tummy. It''s not like they don''t have she-wolfs in the house or Make


    refuses to do any of this but Zaden just ¡®prefers¡¯ to do by himself, for her. Nothing soothes her more


    than his body warmth and that divine scent of his. Every time they scan to see the baby''s gender, he or


    she will keep the legs closed or turn around, so they haven¡¯t found out the baby''s gender. They got so


    tired of referring to the baby as ¡®he or she¡¯ that they gave a nickname to he or she, Bumblebee.


    Observing the legs are one of the ways to identify Bumblebee''s gender and they always return from


    hospital saying ¡®We saw he or she''s leg¡¯ and one day Xavier became irritated and asked. ¡°Why do you


    always look at the legs when we ask for gender, are you having a Bumblebee in there?¡± and so the


    nickname sort of stuck.


    In these months, Selena had visited Orion in Samrat Kingdom, multiple times, more like an ind now


    without all the domination. The mansion is now a student hostel since schools are very close to the


    ind. A batch of students from Mountain Manuka had already settled in there. Edible gardens, poultry


    and dairy farm had popped up here and there, under control of respective packs. Exchange happens


    more frequently and it had encouraged their bonding among neighborhoods. Buffet dinner like they


    used to have in Mountain Manuka also had been organized weekly once and on special asions.


    Pack members are no longer required to pay 25% of their earning, although some still contribute by


    their own will. Orion had begun a business, a security servicepany that provides bodyguard for


    banks, offices and those who requires one. He had given job opportunities to many wolves on the


    ind as well. Any remnants of Epsilon had been erased. As for Mountain Manuka, pack members are


    filled with glee that their future generation is getting a chance to see the outside world. Each new


    development is nned very carefully, not to disturb the nature of the valley, but at the same time,


    bringing them closer to civilization. Elderly vige and second vige didn''t face much change, only


    motorboats are more frequently traveling across the river. Protocols have been loosened. Trees had


    been cleared to make a simple dirt road, whichter will beyered with gravel. Students going to


    further studies have been carefully dispersed into a different field of studies, so that in 4 or 5 years,


    Mountain Manuka would be able to run its own education system.


    But for now, Orion and Zaden walked to the back of red brick house and to Orion''s surprise, he sees a


    basketball court. Make walked into them with a ss of ck drink topped with vani ice-cream


    ¡°Hey, I thought I heard you...¡± she bends and hugged him, nting a kiss on Orion''s cheeks.


    ¡°Prune juice?¡± Orion cocked his eyebrow at the tall ss.


    ¡°Nope, Pepsi with ice cream...I gave up¡± Make pursed her lips and Orion chuckled before turning to


    Zaden.


    ¡°When did this happen?¡± he questioned Zaden, referring to the basketball court.


    ¡°You remember the Goya''s pit. Yup, it is still there, open.¡± Zaden shrugged his shoulder.


    ¡°We had ordered another load of cement and they shoulde in next week¡± Zaden added. Orion''s


    eyes blinked a few times at the basketball court before focusing, not believing what he sees. He then


    darted to Zaden


    ¡°As I said, Sitka is a disappointment¡±. Right in the middle of the basketball court, Selena is bouncing a


    ball and aiming for a shot. She bent her wrist and pushed the ball forward and before it hit the ring, she


    had slipped her hand back to the bottom of her huge belly. The ball made a perfect shot and she gave


    a smug smile to Sitka. Her feet and hands are swollen terribly. She could barely walk but here she is,


    competing against the ever-fit Sitka. Her soft eyes are now on Orion and she duck walked to them.


    Zaden quickly strides to her, followed by Orion. There is a sharp stepdown at the edge of the basketball


    court, about ? feet and she would have to step down from it without actually being able to see it. Zaden


    slipped his hand across her back to hold her waist and her hand automatically pushed against Zaden''s


    chest, biting her lips before stepping down. Orion was holding her other arms, in an arm-wrestling style.


    Her eye twinkled as she smiled at Zaden.


    ¡°Thank you...¡± Zaden smiled in return. Her eye turned to Orion


    ¡°Hey there. When did you arrive?¡± she was breathing slightly deeper than usual.


    ¡° Just now. Aren''t you supposed to be...you know...delivering a baby?¡± Orion questioned, pointing at


    Selena''s baby belly and she chuckled softly.


    ¡°We are at 1 hour apart contraction. No rush. How is Jenny?¡± she said, before wiping her sweaty chin.


    Orion''s fan from Manuka school who didn''t want to return home and insisted on helping Orion, back in


    Samrat.


    ¡°Arghhh... pain in the ass. She keeps ogling on me. I swear, one of these days, she is going to tear me


    into pieces, dip in ketchup and eat for breakfast¡± Orion huffed in annoyance and Selena chuckled at


    him.


    ¡°Sitka here doesn''t believe that I beat both of you, once upon a time¡± she added


    ¡°That is so not true. You cheated us!!!¡± Orion eximed, to which Selena rolled her eye.


    ¡°By the way, how many you have in there?¡± Orion added and Selenaughed aloud before she felt a


    kick in the stomach and hissed with a painful frown. Her hand is on her stomach, where she just got


    kicked. Orion and Zaden flustered to hold her better.


    ¡°I''m ok, I''m ok...¡± Selena said low, exhaling slowly


    ¡°You should teach your son to respect women, Queen Selena. We don''t want another Epsilon¡± Orion


    said


    ¡°Daughter¡± Zaden barged in

    ¡°No, it''s a boy¡± Orion


    ¡°No, it''s a girl¡±Zaden


    ¡°What makes you so sure, Alpha Zaden. Wanna bet?¡± Orion cocked his eyebrow


    ¡°Well bring it on, Alpha Orion¡± Zaden chest up to him.


    ¡°Guys, guys, guys...Wait. I know a way to resolve this¡± Selena with her smirk, wiggling her eyebrow.


    Sitka helped Selena to sit at the end of the basketball court, on a chair while Zaden and Orion is in the


    middle, shirtless and bouncing ball of the floor. Zaden still makes Selena drool like a schoolgirl even


    though her body doesn''t allow anything more than drool at the moment. She sat there, biting her lips,


    enduring a little sting down her belly.


    ¡°Ready to lose, alpha?¡± Orion


    ¡°I think you already lost terribly to me once¡± Zaden eye darted to Selena


    ¡°Wooww, you will have to pay for hitting my weak spot¡± Orion
