They are the first to return to the front. Followed by Tyler, Liam, Chester, and Emily one of the new trainees. She’s fast and swift reminding Selene of her first weeks of training in Sanborn, under the care
of Colonel Coelhelm.
Blake places his arms around Selene as they wait for the others to arrive.
“Not bad darling, not bad.” He smiles at her, giving her a small kiss on her lips.
“Thanks told you I can keep up. And I didn’t even break a sweat!”
“Well. not yet!” He sneers as the last person arrives back.
“Ok… now! Next phase, you all know the drill twenty laps around the territory. Stay within the walls, no
messing around, and remember!!! Ten first laps in human form and ten laps on your wolf form.. Go!!!” Tyler ordered as they all took off.
What started off as a pleasant run, soon turned into a fun game for Blake and Selene as they shifted themselves to their wolves.
The always so playful Alexander and Hazel take off running as fast as their paws can take them. Though they are unreachable by the rest, they still frolic and prance around happily. Running quick as lightning and jumping through boulders, swiftly moving across all the big and low branches. Adoring each and every moment they are together… as they always do.
As they make their way to the finish line, Alexander comes in first, followed by Hazel who jumps and twirls joyfully around him. She leans her head against his, as he softly runs his head against her side, licking her face, adoring every moment given by her side.
One by one his beta and gamma followed by the rest make themselves to the finish line. Some prancing around enjoying their time, others quickly shifting back to human form to continue their way with their favorite people.
Selene is left at awe with the rest of the training. Reminiscing of her own training back in Sanborn. Hard, tiring, impressive.
As they walk back, completely drenched in sweat, she smiles at both Ty and Blake. Thinking how good it feels to be finally training again.
She grasps Tyler’s hand, squeezing it lightly. She purses her lips and hangs her head down low, looking at the ground.
Gulping hard, she mutters out softly, “Ty , I’m sorry! you had a second chance at being happy with a
mate. and I ruined it for you.”
He stops on his track, pulling her hand and embracing her in his arms.
“Little sister. you ruined nothing. I already knew she wasn’t my second chance mate. I mean, if she had
been, I would have known the second I picked you up from the airport back when you got home. The only reason I went along with it, was because Blake asked me to and because we already suspected this
when she would sneak away in the middle of the night. You think her stupid chemical would fool me? I
smelt her fakeness from the very beginning. You were lucky that the scent she made, was made for me, and not for Blake.”
Her mouth was gawked open, she was more confused then before. What exactly was her husband keeping from her that she didn’t know?
Well, guess she’ll just have to confront him herself, and make him eat his own words no more secrets!

Blake's POV
It would be impossible for me to continue with my plans if I kept her in the shadows. The fact I'm keeping so much shit from her, is eating at me.
Making my own damn words itch at me from when I told her to quit keeping secrets from me. I made her promise to never hide things from me, yet I have so many hidden things from her.
Two years before she returned, I found out that a top warrior from the Crescent Moon pack had passed away while she was supposed to be off in college. I would be lying if I said it didn't scare me. Millions of thoughts went through my mind, what if that happened to my mate?
That's when I knew something was not right. I took advantage of an invitation the Crescent Moon's new Alpha had made us. I had already met Tasha by then. We had just talked once back then. But I used the fact she was attracted to me to my advantage.
I seduced her. In return for me kissing her senseless, she'd give me information on our new Crescent Moon alpha. He was shady, cruel to his pack, and mercilessly... and kept it all behind walls. His Luna had no idea of how he really was.
Macy was the daughter of the former Alpha, but her pack didn't accept women as Alpha's. So, when she married Stewart, he became the new alpha to her pack. Hiding his own little devilish ugly deeds from her.
I kept tabs on him, if he dared hurt Macy, I would take matters into my own hands. For a werewolf, your mate is yours forever. It's a bond that no one or anything can break it. Only death, or your own mate's rejection.
I was lucky to have Selene, even if I didn't know it was her, deep down I hoped it was her.
Every time I kissed Tasha, it made me feel like shit. Needless to say, Xander would go for weeks without speaking to me. Thus, the reason I got the nickname of ruthless Alpha, from the younger pack members. Because I went around with a bitter heart, and pissed off all the time. I isolated myself from everything and everyone.
But to find out she was my moon child, is breaking my heart even more.
I was told my true destiny since I turned eighteen. My father told me about the last primordial vampire coming for revenge, to end a life long battle between the Primords pack and the Primords vampire Clan. A war that has gone on for centuries on end. A war that started nearly 500 years B. C., each time we are faced against them, our goddess Selene gives us a moon child.
Her destiny is not only to protect the Alpha, so that our lineage may go on, but she is also destined to sacrifice herself for her Alpha.
