Prologue
Lycans have been regarded as the perfect creation of the moon goddess for centuries. Lycans have extraordinary gifts that are easily noticeable. Through their extraordinary gifts, they can assert their strength in their world, making them a force to be reckoned with. That is why supernatural creatures both fear and hold them in high regard.
On the other side of the world, in a distant kingdom. A group of people is gathering to see a pup being born. There were people who thought it was the King and Queen. Sadly, if not, Sapphire and Jedidiah are the couples. The head warriors of the Nightingale Pack were soon to have a child.
The couple has been trying to conceive for a long time. It's consistently disappointing every time. They prayed to the moon goddess, asking for a puppy as time went by. Just when it seemed like all hope was lost, the couple was about to give up until the moon goddess finally answered their prayers. Discovering they were going to have a pup filled the couple with excitement, as it meant their dream was becoming a reality.
On a cold and dark night, Sapphire endured a tense and painful labor. With each contraction, the screams throughout the kingdom reached our ears. Sweat drips down Sapphire's body as she lies in the hospital bed, taking deep breaths. Throughout every moment, Jedidiah remained by her side, never letting go of her hand. Jedidiah offered support and encouragement to Sapphire, witnessing her enduring pain. He was aware that Sapphire, a strong she-wolf, could overcome any challenge, even childbirth. Both of them have a deep desire to create a meaningful life, and they've been waiting patiently for this moment. The moment of embracing parenthood.
With the baby's head in sight, the doctor motivates Mrs. Hollands to push one more time.
"Did you hear that, my love? We need you to put in one last push. "We finally get to meet our baby," Jedidiah exclaims, wiping her forehead. With a determined nod, Sapphire pushed with all her might and let out a howl within seconds. A loud cry was heard. Their hearts were filled with happiness upon learning about their new pup.
Handing the baby to the nurse, the doctor proclaims, "Congratulations, it's a girl. The couple was approached by the nurse, who had the baby in her arms, a few minutes later. With care, she places the baby into Sapphire's arms. Sapphire and Jedidiah shed tears of happiness.
She looks stunning. "Love, I'm proud of you," Jedidiah says to Sapphire.
“I'm thankful for the moon goddess's blessing, gracing us with our beloved daughter.”
“Love, I can already sense she's going to be a heartbreaker.”
"Jedidiah, do you want to hold your daughter?"
"Indeed, my dear."
Jedidiah had the baby placed in his arms by Sapphire. Jedidiah snuggle close to the baby. The smile on her face grew as she observed the bond that was forming between her mate and their daughter.
"Excuse me," the nurse interrupted, catching the attention of the couples with her clipboard and pen.
"Did you pick a name for the baby?"
"Any ideas for her name?" Jedidiah wonders.
Sapphire states, "Mileena Norie Holland."
"Love, that's such a beautiful name," Jedidiah remarked.
With a nod and a smile, the nurse wrote down the baby's name. When she completed her task, she raised her gaze towards the couple. Afterward, her eyes fell upon the baby, and she uttered, "Welcome to the world, Mileena."
