Chapter: Chapter Thirty FourSELENE(DRAVEN’S BODY)It’s been two days. And I mean literally—two long, dragging, damn peculiar days stuck in this absurd situation.“The only way is to locate her,” Draven says, helping me with the bath like it's the most normal thing in the world. For the past three days, stuck in this fucking situation, well it’s been like this between us.I bathe him and he does the same. Weird, right? Damn, I hate that witch.“So, how do we locate her?” I ask, scowling. “Also—I hate being you.”He chuckles under his breath. “Well, I sent her a message. One thing I know—she’s still around.”I exhale, the darkness pressing in behind the blindfold. Everything feels so off. The silence isn’t real silence—it buzzes.By five that evening, Draven had already returned to his investigation, leaving me buried in endless reports and complaints like some underpaid intern from hell.“What the hell… Why am I stuck with all this?” I mutter, leaning back in the seat as more bad news rolls in. More graves. St

Chapter: Chapter Thirty ThreeDRAVEN(SELENE’S BODY)I exhaled, the weight in my chest tightening. Damn… them again.“If I may,” I said, stepping forward with deliberate poise. “As Queen, I will personally look into this matter.”The room shifted—not in sound, but in energy. The doubt was thick, unspoken but present. Their eyes flicked at me. Her motion-sensing ability let me feel the hesitation before it was even voiced.“You’ve got to be kidding me,” snapped a voice from across the chamber.Bendard.Alpha of the Lowblue Pack—the smallest, most reclusive faction in Nightbane, tucked away in the unforgiving wilds of the Girtlands. Their pride was sharp and their trust scarcer than moonlight on a new moon.“Just because we kissed your hand doesn’t mean we trust you,” he scoffed, arms crossed, voice laced with disdain.Typical. Even when I ruled in my own flesh, they never bowed—only cowered. Fear was easier to command than respect.I exhaled again, longer this time, and took a step forward, closing the space betwee

Chapter: Chapter Thirty TwoSelene (in Draven’s body)“No fucking way!” I snapped, pacing with zero direction, just spiraling. “I can’t do this. No—hell no.”“It won’t be that hard,” Draven said, trying to sound soothing but failing spectacularly. “Just listen to them. Be calm. And don’t look off.”“Don’t look off?!” I threw my hands up. “I am off! I’m a she-wolf stuffed inside the body of the most intimidating male in the realm. I already feel like a walking illusion.”I spun around again, aimless, the heavy weight of his—my—boots making me feel like I was stomping through someone else’s life. This was a terrible idea.“Listen,” he said, grabbing my arm, grounding me. “Antony will be beside you. All you have to do is stay cold. Don’t speak unless necessary. I don’t greet people—they greet me. And I don’t reply.”“You don’t reply?” I blinked.“Not unless they matter.”I couldn’t even argue. He pulled me toward him, placing his—my—hands on my shoulders. The touch wasn’t supposed to feel like anything. But it did

Chapter: Chapter ThirtyDRAVEN(SELEN’S BODY)“Fuck!” I snapped, low and gritted, feeling heat crawl up my neck as Dorian damn near keeled over, clutching her ribs.“Had enough?” I barked, already on edge from how hard she—Selene, in my body—was cracking up like she was auditioning for the role of village lunatic.Dorian had tears streaming down her face. Her entire body shook as she gasped, “Oh gods… I can’t—my stomach—this is better than the time Anotony married his staff.”“I didn’t marry her,” Anotony said under his breath, voice oddly defensive. “She was… emotionally available.”I wanted to stab myself. This whole day was a personal hell written in glitter.And me? I was standing there—no, wobbling—in heels. Fucking heels. In a dress. A tight, itchy, flowy-ass, unbalanced piece of fabric that made every movement feel like I was walking a tightrope in the wind. And the worst part? It was purple. Purple.Grandma Jade just sighed like this was just Tuesday again, and in walks First Uncle, guiding Selene

Chapter: Chapter Twenty NineSELENE.A smile tugged at my lips as I lay beside him, watching the peaceful rise and fall of his chest. He looked almost unreal in the soft morning hush—his features sculpted like a Roman statue, kissed with the wildness of a Norse god. My fingers moved on instinct, tracing the curve of his nose, the sharp line of his jaw.My wolf stirred inside me, a soft, pleased hum echoing through my being. This warmth—this serenity—I’d never known it until now. So this is what it meant to have a mate. To feel anchored and free all at once. To be overwhelmed by the simple beauty of existing beside someone who makes the whole world feel… right.He stirred beneath my gaze, a low groan rumbling in his throat as he blinked open those storm-silver eyes.“Morning, little wolf,” he murmured, his voice still thick with sleep, yet so full of warmth it made my heart stumble.“Morning,” I whispered back, pushing myself up on one elbow. The dawn light poured in, golden and gentle, bathing the room in a soft

Chapter: Chapter Twenty EightDORIAN.“Damn it!” The curse flew out of my mouth before I could stop it. I stormed around the room like a wild animal that had just realized the cage door had been left open too late. My hands were a mess, fingernails torn from how much I’d been chewing at them.Antony barely looked up, calmly steaming a pot of tea like we were in some countryside inn. “Relax,” he said with that damned voice of his—low, slow, maddeningly composed.“Relax?” I spun on him. “You’re telling me to relax when he’s out there doing God-knows-what with her? Selene was mine, Antony! Mine! Before that bastard cursed us into a century-long coma!” My voice cracked, but I didn’t care. I was too far gone for pride.Antony arched a brow, pouring the tea with the elegance of a priest at mass. “Too bad,” he muttered, setting a cup in front of me. “She died after the spell.”I snatched the cup like it owed me answers and chugged it, completely ignoring the scalding heat burning my throat. “I swear, I’ll find whoev

Chapter: EVELYNBright lights. Screams. Footsteps echoing down a corridor.I stood frozen in the hallway, a million thoughts clawing through my head, my heart hammering like a warning bell in my chest. Nurses rushed past me, the blaring siren of an approaching ambulance still ringing faintly in the distance.Someone had pulled me back as Dan carried her down the stairs—Selena’s limp body cradled in his arms, her head lolling like a rag doll, blood painting the edge of her dress.I didn’t know if I screamed or just imagined it."Get out of the way!" a nurse shouted as they wheeled her down the corridor.Dan didn’t even glance my way.He followed them, his shirt soaked with her blood, his face a mask of rage and fear. It hit me then—how much he cared. How deep it must’ve run, no matter how much he denied it before.They took her into the emergency ward, and I was left standing alone under those too-bright, too-cold hospital lights.[Hours Later – Waiting Room]The hospital was a cage of silence now, br

Chapter: KURTISAlthough she insisted she could handle it, I couldn’t help but prepare for the worst. I needed to be ready—just in case.My stomach twisted as I stared down at the documents in front of me. Medical records, dates, and confirmation lines.“She’s pregnant?” I scoffed, letting out a dry, humorless chuckle, though the annoyance in my voice betrayed the anger simmering beneath the surface.“Yeah,” Fedrick replied flatly, standing to the side with his hands tucked behind his back. “Four months along, confirmed.”I gritted my teeth. “What a bastard…”“What should we do, boss?” Fedrick asked, his tone low and cautious.I let out a long breath, fingers tapping against the mahogany desk. “I wanted to step in, but she asked me not to. So we’ll keep our distance... for now.”I spun my chair around, gazing out the window at the rain streaking down the glass.“Gavin’s the one representing Bianco this time,” I added, voice steely. “I want you to keep both eyes on him. He plays dirty, always has. If

Chapter: KURTISKURTISI was heading out for a meeting with some shareholders. The game was about to start, all thanks to Mr. Abdalla’s push. It should’ve been a good day.But fate always had its way of pulling the rug.The moment we stepped out of the house, the sky cracked open and rain began to pour, thick and unrelenting.Just as I was sliding into the backseat, Fedrick’s voice cut through the hum of the downpour.“Sir… isn’t that Miss Evelyn?”I looked up sharply, eyes narrowing at the figure stepping out of a cab just beyond the gate. My breath caught.It was her.Standing alone in the pouring rain—no coat, no umbrella, not even a shawl. Just the same dress she wore earlier that morning. Her hair clung to her cheeks, makeup ruined, her body trembling beneath the weight of the storm.“What the hell…?” I muttered, already flinging the car door open.Without thinking, I tore off my coat and rushed toward her, ignoring the rain as I wrapped it around her frail, soaked frame. Her lips parted, eyes w

Chapter: EVELYNYou know, at this point, something like this shouldn’t shake me.But it does.Not because I’m seeing it again. God knows this scene is becoming a rerun at this point.What kills me—what burns right through my chest—is that he was the one who texted me. Urgently. Like something life-changing couldn’t wait another second. And then he brings her? And has the nerve to let me walk right into this mess like it’s some twisted open invitation?“Evelyn… I… it’s not what you think,” Dan stammers, keys slipping between his trembling fingers like guilt he can’t quite hold onto.I mean, seriously?His tie’s half-looped like he yanked it loose in a rush, three buttons undone, shirt disheveled like it had been clawed open. His coat’s just lying there on the floor, like it gave up trying to hold any dignity for him.I feel my throat tightening, the betrayal pressing hard against my ribs.“What’s the meaning of this?” I ask, breathless, my voice cracked between fury and disbelief. “If you’re going to

Chapter: EVELYN“Next Saturday, I want to take you out for lunch. Just the two of us,” Victoria whispered as Fedrick parked the car.I glanced at her with a teasing smile. “Well, if you’re buying, then why not?”We both chuckled softly.“Then it’s a date.”After a few parting goodbyes, we climbed into the car. The air inside felt thick—charged with tension, emotions, or maybe it was just my stupid heart acting up again. It couldn’t handle being around him without doing backflips in my chest.So, I did what any sane person would do when someone’s presence starts messing with your thoughts—I avoided looking at him altogether. I cracked the window open just a little and let the wind graze my face, focusing on anything outside that wasn’t him.As usual, he was completely absorbed in his laptop, typing away like the world around him didn’t exist.“What did you talk about with Victoria?” he asked, smooth as silk.“Nothing. Just girl talk,” I replied lightly, hoping he’d drop it.Silence followed. But it wa

Chapter: KURTISHer breath was soft—gentle, almost rhythmic. By now, she was deep asleep. Completely gone.And yet I… I couldn’t take my eyes off her.The taste of her lips still lingered—faint but maddeningly present. They were slightly swollen, kissed raw by me, and my tongue kept chasing the memory like it wasn’t ready to let go.I’ve kissed a lot of women.Some were tactics—tools in the mess of scandals I used to orchestrate. Others were fleeting distractions, faces I barely remember now. But her?Evelyn was different.Every time I kissed her, something inside me shifted. My chest tightened, my pulse raced like I’d never done it before. There was this strange, almost helpless ache in me—like I could kiss her for hours and still want more.And now, lying beside her… watching her sleep?God.How the hell can someone be so damn beautiful doing nothing but breathing?Her lips were parted, ever so slightly, letting out the softest little sighs—almost a whisper. The kind of breath that brushed again

The Love Game With Enemy Alpha
After ten years of dedication, Syra is divorced by her Alpha, who goes back to his first love. Feeling betrayed, she enters a love game with her former Mate and fiancé that she abandoned.
The game...
“Let’s play a game,” I purred. “You’ve got three months. In that time, you can try any type of flirting, seducing, or courting—bad boy style. Pull every trick you’ve got. Make me want you. And if, by any chance, my heart so much as skips a beat when I see that ridiculously handsome face of yours? You win. You mark me, and I’m yours.”
“Any kind of flirting?” he asked, amused now.
I nodded.
“Yeah, bad boy. All of it. Make me want you. But if you fail… then I use you for a year—your name, your power, your resources—and after that, you release me. So… what do you say, Mr. Steinhart? In or out?”

Chapter: Chapter Eighty TwoADRIANHer lips were trembling against mine—soft, like petals brushed by the wind. I cupped her face, thumbs grazing the high curve of her cheeks as our foreheads pressed together. I was losing to this fire, drowning in it. And yet, I didn’t want to come up for air.Her hands curled around the collar of my shirt, pulling me deeper, closer—until every breath I exhaled was hers and every heartbeat I heard wasn’t just mine anymore.I kissed her again, slower this time, our mouths gliding in perfect rhythm. My lower lip captured hers and held it like a promise. The corners of her mouth twitched into a smile, sweet and mischievous. Our lips danced—twirled, tasted, teased—as if they were in a deep conversation only we could understand.She was leaning back, slowly pulling me with her, the back of her knees hitting the edge of the bed.“S-Syra—” I breathed, my voice hoarse with restraint.Her response was a quiet moan, her fingers running through my hair as she pulled me down. Her lips met m

Chapter: Chapter Eighty OneSYRAThe stars looked like someone had spilled glitter across black silk, and I was lying there with Adrian, my fingers laced through his as if they belonged there.“You know,” I murmured, tilting my head toward him, “if you stare too long, you start to think they’re staring back.”Adrian smirked. “If one of them winks, I’m running. You’ll have to explain to your parents why I jumped into the lake.”I snorted, covering my mouth. “That lake has frogs, Adrian.”“Well,” he said, shrugging, “I’ve faced rogue wolves and blood curses. Frogs might be where I draw the line.”I chuckled, turning onto my side to look at him. His features were softer in the moonlight, and his eyes—usually sharp like obsidian—seemed less guarded. His gaze wasn’t on the stars. It was on me.“What?” I asked.He didn’t answer right away. He just tucked a loose strand of hair behind my ear. “I’m just trying to memorize this version of you. Laughing. Light. Safe.”I blinked, the mood shifting for a second. “You make i

Chapter: Chapter EightySYRA The soft scent of lilac drifted in the air as I leaned into her palm, her thumb gently tracing circles on my cheek like she used to when I’d get nightmares as a child.“Mum,” I whispered again, still unsure if saying it too loudly would break the fragile miracle in front of me.Janet Moonclaw smiled down at me, her silver lashes misted with tears. “My baby. Look at you… so grown, so strong.”Her fingers combed gently through my hair, brushing it behind my ear the same way she used to before bedtime stories. Every stroke was a heartbeat of comfort, a language that only a mother and daughter could speak.Next to me, Adrian’s hand found mine. Warm, steady. I turned and met his eyes. He didn’t speak, but his gaze said it all: You’re safe now.I pressed closer to Mum’s lap, my heart finally able to breathe after days of darkness and confusion. The room was quiet, reverent, the kind of silence that only came after something divine.Father cleared his throat gently from across the room

Chapter: Chapter Seventy NineLUCIANI couldn’t sit still.My legs jittered restlessly against the wooden floor, palms clammy despite the chilled air in the hall. My wolf paced inside me—tugging, restless, eager. But my heart… damn it, my heart felt like it was going to claw out of my chest.“Come down, son.”Father’s voice came softly—too softly for how loud the silence was in this place. He stood against the wall, arms crossed but eyes heavy with worry. Even with all his years, I could tell he was just as shaken.I looked away, unable to follow his order.“So anxious like a little boy,” Aunt Zaniyah whispered from beside the hearth, her voice barely carrying across the room.“Nor has he said much,” added Uncle Roen, sighing deeply. He was seated with his boots halfway off, but he hadn’t moved for hours.Elder Jared was pacing again. The old man had lost none of his stride, even after decades of service. “It’s the after-effect. That kind of curse… lingers on the soul. It’s been part of their blood for generations

Chapter: Chapter Seventy EightADRIANTwo Days LaterShe was still deep asleep. No change for the past two days.I sat motionless beside her bed, the soft beeping of the monitor the only thing reminding me she was still with me—still breathing.My fingers brushed lightly against hers, cold and limp. The moment stretched, filled with worry that felt heavier than anything I’d ever carried into battle.Then his voice came again—low, ancient, and echoing not in the room, but through the deepest part of my mind.“She will wake up soon.”I exhaled, jaw tight. “You said that that day too. When is this soon? Why hasn’t she woken up?”He chuckled. The sound was warm, knowing, but it crawled under my skin and irritated the hell out of me.“Impatience doesn’t suit you,” he said, and I could hear him clearer now, though I still couldn’t see his face. Only that blazing light, faceless and endless.“I’ve never been patient. Not with people I care about.”There was silence for a moment before he spoke again, voice low and calm.“

Chapter: Chapter Seventy SevenNobody moved.No—scratch that.No one dared to move.The air was too thick. The world too silent. Like even the wind knew it needed to hold its breath.He floated above us like an ancient god reborn.Adrian.But… not the Adrian I knew.Not the cold, quiet boy I used to daydream about. He was my fucking first crush back in college. I fell for his cold absolute fuck off vibe.He was a prince back, tall and ridiculously handsome, and he was totally my type, and I hoped and wished he was my mate, not until I heard he was engaged to some MoonClaw princess who eventually rejects him and goes off with some goofball named Asher.I really did envy Syra, she had everything yet she walked away then she just comes back and fuck, she takes it all. My man, the one I have wanted and waited for, and even the very title I have always craved for. Why fucking her? Why does it always has to be fucking Syra and because of her, my fucking dream of being with Adrian is even more distanceMy knees buckled,
