Chapter: CHAPTER 9LUCIEN~»I staggered into the heart of the pack house courtyard. My black coat was torn, matted with dried blood, and claw marks ran deep across my side. Every step I took was laced with pain, but I didn’t stop.Not until I reached the center, not until I could feel her.Not until I took her away from that bastard!“Where is she?” I growled, voice ragged from hours of battle.My wolf, barely awake inside me, whined softly, unable to connect with Nyra as it used to.One of the guards rushed to my side. “Alpha—”“Where is Nyra?” I barked, shoving away the guards who tried to steady me. Nick hesitated, eyes darting to the pack infirmary steps. “She’s inside… but… she’s not alone.”Mu jaw tightened. Blood still dripped from my knuckles as I pushed through the wooden door.There she was.Nyra sat on the bed, her wrist wrapped in cloth, her long hair falling in tangles down her back. But that wasn’t what stopped my breath.It was the man beside her.Tall. Dark-eyed. Hand on her shoulder

Chapter: CHAPTER 8LUCIEN The moon stood still in sky, its eerie shadows casting its soft glow on us. Mark and Dan, my delta trailed behind me as we scaled through the forest, our boots marching against the cracked ground. We held our weapons firm in our hands, eyes flickering around.The cries of the warriors reached our eyes and my eyebrows darted wide, I looked at Mark."The rogues are winning, Alpha." My jaw dropped, this couldn't be possible.The last time they attacked, we defeated them. How come they were crushing us now?I had my soldiers trained well, this wasn't supposed to be."Do we turn around? I think we should send a signal to the soldiers to retreat, we're losing so many men." Mark suggested but I shook my head."We shall advance, no matter what!" I declared, my voice booming through the chaos.Mark and Dan shared a worried expression before they nodded."I'll lead the way." I said, moving forward with caution but Cole's voice stopped me."The shadows keep veiling my sight. Are you s

Chapter: CHAPTER 7LUCIEN~»Scavengeing lone wolves to myself wasn't my joy, it was only a way to run away from my fear and pain.My mother abandoned me when I was only six. She left my father and no-one had ever heard of her for 22 years now.I never knew what it meant to have a mother, I never enjoyed motherly love.My father got married to someone else when mother disappeared and ever since the night of their bonding, he failed to acknowledge me.We only related like business partners, he only spoke or called for me when it was necessary or about the Pack's affairs.I was so lonely, felt so dejected….and that was when Alyssa came into my life.My wolf was so extraordinary that I didn't wait until 18 like other wolves before I knew who my mate was.I was only 15 when I marked Alyssa.It was at the Academy we met. She thought me how to live again, drew me from my inner pains. She was all I could ever pray for.Alyssa and I were supposed to get married four days ago but she died a day before our enga

Chapter: Chapter 6NYRA~»"What's wrong with you?" I asked, my voice trembling. All he did was draw me closer and slammed his lips on mine."Alp…. Alpha…" I groaned in his mouth, struggling to break free but he didn't let go. Without warning, he kissed me hard, pinning me beneath me as the world blurred around us."Please, don't leave me." He croaked, his face buried in my neck. My pulse raced, each beat echoing my confusion. What did he mean?Did he just beg me not to leave? He lifted his face to look at me and instinctively, my hands crawled up his face. Touching his eyes again, they came back to normal — no more emptiness, no more gloominess. They were now back to his normal glowing green ones.His eyes roamed my body, never leaving me for a moment. He inched closer and my mouth fell open, wondering what he was going to do.Before I could fall off his bed, he grabbed my hand and pulled me to lay on his chest.I froze, "w….what are you doing?""It's only a matter of time." He rasped, "I can only

Chapter: Chapter 5.NYRA~»He called me his, yet he doesn't seize to make my life miserable— a living hell.He doesn't only stop at rejecting me, he got me locked up— whirling in darkness and cold or this eerie dungeon.He dragged me here himself, bound me to chains and watches the guards torture me.The smirk on his face doesn't quaver, they remain— haunting and evil."Pl—please….." my scream booms in the room. I can't take the pain, no, not any longer.He's going to listen and have mercy, I think, but my thoughts are cut off when he takes the whip and slices the blade through my skin."How do you feel now,one wolf?" He steps forward, lowering the chains so I can face him.My head is hung low and I'm breathless. Tears stream down my eyes, dampening my pale face.He moves his hand up my face, his finger brushing some strands of my hair off my sweaty forehead."Lone wolves like you are my muse and watching you cry and shriek excites me." "Alpha…. Please, spare me." His gaze soften, something shifting

Chapter: Chapter 4.NYRA~»The moon hangs high in the sky, its eerie shadows flickering through the room.The room is strangely cold and I can't help but shiver as I hold unto my knees.When Alpha King Lucien walks into the room, my whole body goes stiff and my breath hitches.I sink in grief as he takes slow and deliberate steps towards me, what is he going to do to me now?"Such pretty lone wolf." He smirks, tracing his thumb along my lips.I shudder when his smooth palm makes contact with my thigh, sliding up."W….what are you doing?" My lips tremble as the question slips out.The way my skin burns at his touch is strange and the burning sensation that feels within me causes more confusion.Why am I vulnerable to his touch?"I can smell the rejection all over you." He sniffs as he kisses my nape and a moan leaves my mouth before I can control it.The heat intensifies and my wolf's thuds are relentless. Why am I this way?"Mireya, What's wrong?" I ask her and the reply she gives me sends my blood run

Chapter: Chapter 35: The Enemy InsideRedHowl Territory – Northern WatchtowerAriella, man, she was born with the cheat codes for getting her way. Little tilt of the chin. Hold a gaze just a beat longer than polite. Sigh like her heart’s made of glass. She’d figured out the game before she could even shift—knew most wolves needed to feel important, not just wild.Difference was, she never needed anyone. Not really.And yet—look at her now. Northern edge of RedHowl’s watchtower, freezing her ass off, waiting on a guy who didn’t give her the usual hungry stare. Drew. Too damn noble for his own good. That face—jaw like he could bite through steel, eyes that made you want to confess your sins, and a heart so soft it should be illegal.Guy was basically a walking contradiction: perfect mark, perfect threat.She yanked her gloves tighter. There he was, coming up the path, patrol gear fitting him like armor, hair a wild mess. Moody as hell. Didn’t so much as twitch a smile when he saw her. Typical.“Ariella.” He kept it moving,

Chapter: Chapter 34: The AmbushEastern Ridge, RedHowl BorderlandKieran hunkered down behind a busted birch, nose full of blood and smoke. The supply cart was still burning, just over there—close enough to feel the heat if he wanted. MoonClaw symbols, all jagged and freshly scrawled, glared at him from a tree. Real subtle, huh? Taunt written in sap.Somewhere behind him, Bran wheezed like a dying bellows, hand jammed into his side. Guy was ghost-pale, sweat pooling at his hairline. Honestly, he looked about two minutes from checking out.Recon, they’d said. Just a little peek at a MoonClaw trail. No heroics, no drama. Guess someone forgot to tell MoonClaw.“Three dead,” Tova whispered, crouched up close. She tried to sound tough, but her voice had that wobble—like she might throw up. “Two taken.”Kieran clenched his jaw so hard his teeth hurt. This was all wrong. They’d moved at dusk, thinking they were the shadows. He’d seen the broken branches, the tracks—hell, he’d followed them. Should’ve known. Should’ve felt

Chapter: Chapter 33: Bargains and BloodlinesLocation: Hollowmere Glade – Verdant Circle Territory (Witch Clan)Man, the fog in Hollowmere didn’t play around—it wrapped around RedHowl’s crew like some overenthusiastic ghost dog. Evangeline yanked her cloak tighter, nerves prickling. This forest? Yeah, it had a vibe. Old, hush-hush, like it was hiding every nasty secret from a hundred blood rituals no one wanted to talk about.Hann, never the subtle type, muttered, “Magic stinks in this place.” His hand hovered near his sword, just in case the trees got any ideas.Silas shut him down real quick. “Show some respect. We’re guests here. We need them, not the other way round.”Hann just grunted—classic.So, six of them—Silas in front, Evangeline right behind, Hann, Selina, Nox the scout, and Drew (still limping from the last scrap with rogues, but Silas insisted he come anyway). Ariella? Nowhere in sight. Evangeline figured that was about power, not absence.In the center of the glade, they hit a circle of mossy old stones, all gathe

Chapter: Chapter 32: Before the BondRedHowl Territory, Midnight ClearingDamn, the moon was on some main character energy tonight—full-on spotlight mode, dumping silver all over the clearing and turning every blade of grass into magic carpet territory. Even the trees looked freaky, all stretched out and twitchy. Crickets kept up their weird static soundtrack, but honestly? The whole forest had that vibe like it was waiting for the next disaster, all tight and wired.Evangeline hugged herself, practically glued to that busted stone well like it might keep her from flying apart. Her wolf was right there under the surface, restless as hell, itching to claw its way out and raise some chaos. Don’t even get her started on the mate bond. That thing was frying her nerves—like sticking your finger in a socket, all jittery and raw, making her want to crawl out of her own skin.She felt Silas coming before she saw him—classic. Guy always acted like she was made of glass. Drove her up the wall. A tiny part of her almost wanted him

Chapter: Chapter 31: Shadows Between UsThe moon was out, bold as hell—couldn’t mind its business if it tried. Everything below looked sharp and jagged, like the world just got outlined in cold neon. Trees doing their best haunted house impression, all clawed branches and drama, eavesdropping on her bad mood. Wind kept poking at her, too, like it had nothing better to do, making the leaves gossip and hiss. Evangeline stomped along the edge, boots crunching dead leaves and, honestly, probably some unidentifiable grossness. Wolf senses buzzing, skin prickly, but she played it cool. Or tried to.Truth? She just needed out. Head was a blender, thoughts all chopped up. Maybe she’d scream at the sky, maybe not. Maybe just stand there and let the dark chew on her for a while. Anything but self-destructing under all that thinking.Back there? No thanks. That place was a pressure cooker—war drums in the background, people scheming, everyone whispering about “fate” like it’s this contagious rash. Eyes on her, waiting for some miracle

Chapter: Chapter 30: Blood Moon DreamsJeez, that moon was furious.All swollen and sickly red, hanging so low it felt like it might plop right onto your head if you stared at it wrong. The woods? Silent. Not even a cricket. Like everything had just... stopped.Evangeline stood dead center in the clearing, toes numb, breath fogging in the chill. The trees crowded in around her—gnarled and hunched like they wanted to pick a fight.She knew it had to be a dream. Her brain whispered it, all logical and calm.But her body? Her body knew.Every nerve screamed. Her heart was trying to punch its way out of her chest. Not quite fear—more that electric buzz right before everything breaks.Then—wham.It appeared.The biggest damn wolf she’d ever seen—and she’d seen enough to know this one wasn’t normal. Eyes burning like someone lit a lantern behind them. Shadowy, massive, fur bristling like it couldn’t decide whether to devour her or bolt. It opened its mouth.No sound.Just wind, curling through the trees, hissing like it knew sec
