All of their eyes narrowed at her hand on his; they knew that they had no right, but it didn’t stop them from zoning in on it. Riley seemed to sense their glares, smirking before planting a kiss on her forehead, their eyes burning with jealousy over something they would never be able to have.

As breakfast started to wind down, pack members started to come up and offer congratulations on their mating and pledging their allegiance to the new Alpha pair as tradition dictates, even if it was a bitt

    “Few do,” Sabrina replied. “The full texts have been kept in the Alpha’s library for generations. Most only know the simplified versions the Elders share.”Riley felt a surge of pride for his mate. She had handled the confrontation with grace, using knowledge rather than emotion to make her point.“The Goddess chose Sabrina for this role,” Riley added, keeping his voice measured despite his wolf’s desire to assert dominance. “Not the Elders, not tradition, the Goddess.”Rodney sank back into his chair, running a hand through his hair. “This changes things.”“It doesn’t change how you feel,” Fitz said quietly. “But it might change how you think about the situation.”Rodney nodded slowly. “I need time to process this.”“We don’t have much time,” Riley said. “The hearing is tomorrow morning.”“Then I’ll be there,” Rodney replied, his expression still troubled but less hostile. “I can’t promise I’ll speak in your favour, but I won’t stand with Elder Marcus.”It wasn’t the full support Ril

  • The Luna's Harem   Chapter 29

    As they left the Alpha’s office, Riley felt the weight of responsibility settling on his shoulders. The political battle for the Harem’s future was just beginning, and the stakes couldn’t be higher.“Are you okay?” Sabrina asked, her hand finding his as they walked through the empty hallway.Riley squeezed her hand, drawing strength from her touch. “I’m worried about tomorrow. Elder Marcus is powerful.”“Not as powerful as the Goddess,” Sabrina replied, her voice filled with conviction. “This is her will, not his.”Riley nodded, though doubt still lingered in his mind. The pack was divided, and Elder Marcus had centuries of tradition on his side.“One problem for him the Harem house hasn’t been used in three generations, that is, nearly two centuries, so how does that work? No male of my family line has to have a Harem, just female ones that were born the Heir.”Riley blinked at Sabrina’s words. She was right, the Harem hadn’t been active in generations, which made Elder Marcus’s ferv

    Elder Marcus’s face turned an alarming shade of purple at Sabrina’s words. Riley felt a surge of pride for his mate’s boldness, even as tension rippled through the gathered crowd.“You twist my words, Luna,” the Elder sputtered. “I seek only to uphold tradition!”“Tradition that has led to the deaths of seventeen men in the past twenty years,” Sabrina replied, her voice steady despite the growing tension. “Is that truly what the Goddess wants?”Riley stepped forward, placing himself slightly in front of Sabrina. “The survey is meant to gather opinions, not make final decisions. Everyone will have a voice in these reforms.”“But the sperm bank—“ Elder Marcus began.“Is designed to protect bloodlines,” Riley cut him off. “Even if tragedy strikes.”The crowd murmured, some nodding in agreement while others shook their heads in disapproval. Riley spotted Victor and Kane standing at the edge of the gathering, their expressions carefully neutral.“This is not the way to handle such matters,

    Victor’s face lit up with genuine enthusiasm. “I think it’s a wonderful idea. A father should know his pups, regardless of the circumstances of their birth.”Kane nodded, though his expression remained more guarded. “It would make the Harem stronger. The men would have more to fight for if they knew their children personally.”Riley felt a wave of relief wash over him. These two understood what they were trying to achieve with the reforms. They weren’t just thinking about their own desires but about the future of the pack.“What about the sperm bank proposal?” Riley asked, watching their reactions carefully.Victor’s brow furrowed thoughtfully. “It makes sense from a practical standpoint. Bloodlines could continue even if...” He trailed off, not wanting to voice the dark possibility.“Even if something happens to one of us,” Kane finished bluntly. “It’s smart. The old ways were wasteful.”Sabrina smiled, clearly pleased with their responses. “Good. We need men who understand that thes

    “Guess they should see the main floor first in full this but has been renovated, but we don’t know if Alpha Jason has started the first bedroom suites yet, and with Elder Marcus already pushing.”“Yeah, how much do you two know? Because two other packs want to send some of their males into my Harem, one as an Alpha Heir and the other as a Beta Heir. It would take our pool from 25 to 37, and that’s only if other packs don’t try as well. The whole house is meant to house 200 men.”Kane’s eyes widened at Sabrina’s words. “Two hundred? That’s... that’s insane.”“Not really,” Victor said thoughtfully, his eyes scanning the massive living area. “If you think about it, the Harem House was built during a time when our pack was much larger. The original design probably anticipated more members.”Riley nodded, grateful for Victor’s practical perspective. “We need to focus on making the first ten rooms habitable. After that, we can tackle the rest in phases.”“Speaking of rooms,” Sabrina said, “

    Riley nodded, his mind already racing with potential complications. The survey was just the beginning; they’d need to prepare for the backlash from traditionalists, especially Elder Marcus. But Sabrina was right. They had to start somewhere.“Let’s get this to Father,” Sabrina said, gathering her notebook. “The sooner we distribute it, the sooner we can start analysing the results.”As they made their way back to the Alpha’s office, Riley couldn’t help but notice the way pack members watched them pass. Some looked at them with respect, others with barely concealed hostility. The division in the pack was becoming more apparent with each passing hour.“Don’t let it get to you,” Sabrina whispered, sensing his unease through their bond. “Change is never easy.”“I know,” Riley replied, straightening his shoulders. “But I never expected it to be this... public.”Alpha Jason was still in his office when they returned, reviewing documents with a furrowed brow. He looked up as they entered, hi
