Chapter: Chapter 297: our kids are feralTalia's POV FIVE YEARS LATER The house was loud. Not the kind of loud that came with danger or panic, the kind that came with chaos, children, and one absolutely unhinged uncle. I leaned against the kitchen doorway, pinching the bridge of my nose as a high-pitched shriek echoed through the hall. "MILO! TELL THEM TO LEAVE MY WOLF PLUSHIE ALONE!" That was Rowan, my son. One half of the twins. He was wild like fire, sharp like a blade and stubborn like... well, me. "No!" his sister Aria snapped back. "It's mine now! You said I could hold it!" "I SAID YOU COULD HOLD IT, NOT KIDNAP IT!" Before I could intervene, Nicole popped out from behind the couch holding a tray of cookies and wearing a ridiculous apron. "Children!" he announced dramatically. "You must learn the ways of negotiation. Aria, demand concessions. Rowan, threaten war. This is very simple." "Nicole," I groaned, "stop encouraging them." "Encouraging?" Nicole gasped, fake-offended."I'm educating them. These are val

Chapter: Chapter 296: you’re stuck with me foreverTalia’s POV I stood in front of the mirror, staring at my reflection. “Is it like a wedding?”Nicole sighed, rolling his eyes for what had to be the hundredth time that day. “No, Talia.” He spun me around by the shoulders till I was facing him. “It’s a Luna coronation.”“I didn’t know that was a thing.” I whispered, playing with my dress. I felt an unusual stir of nerves.“It is. It’s ancient culture, not completely necessary but…” he trailed off. “It’s cute, I guess. Cassian had been planning one for you before…”Right.I straightened. But the nerves in my stomach didn’t die down.“You’re going to be alright,” Nicole reassured softly. “The pack loves you, you’re their hero.”I scoffed.“I don’t need their love.”Not after they abandoned me and turned their backs to me when I needed them the most.“You’ll grow to love them.”“I won’t.”He opened his mouth to argue when the door pushed open. Katherine’s head popped in. “It’s time.”I nodded. I looked at Nicole one last time.“W

Chapter: Chapter 295: thank you for being my friendCassian’s POV“So Mason, huh?”Nicole’s head snapped up, uncertainty flickering across his face.“Yeah,” he mumbled almost sheepishly. “I know he’s your nemesis and all, but—”I crossed my arms, leaning against the kitchen wall.Talia was still asleep—after I’d thoroughly worn her out last night—so I’d taken the opportunity to talk to Nicole.My best friend.“It doesn’t matter what he is to me,” I shrugged. “What matters is what he is to you.”His eyes widened slightly.“Does he make you happy?”Silence stretched between us.Nicole’s expression shifted slowly—surprise, longing, relief, happiness.Then finally—Something softer.Something almost sad.My chest tightened painfully.“Yeah,” he whispered. “He does.”I nodded once, an unfamiliar ache settling in my chest.We both knew what that meant.I wanted to argue. Wanted to convince him not to leave.Wanted to selfishly ask him to stay.But I couldn’t.Not when the heaviness that had haunted him for months was finally gone.Not when h

Chapter: Chapter 294: you caused a bit of troubleTalia’s POV“How long was I out?” I asked Cassian as I pulled my clothes on.After another day hidden away in the woods, wrapped in each other, he had mindlinked someone to bring us clothes.He shrugged lazily from where he leaned against the tree, his arms coming around my waist the second I stepped close enough.“Two days?” He mumbled, pressing a slow kiss to my lips.I opened my mouth to respond, but he took the opportunity to deepen the kiss, his tongue slipping into my mouth like he couldn’t help himself.A soft sound escaped me before I could stop it.I kissed him back instinctively, my hands flattening against his chest.I didn’t know whether to push him away or pull him impossibly closer.His hand tangled in my hair as the heat between us thickened.I moaned quietly, feeling warmth pool low in my stomach.My wolf stirred hungrily.“Cass,” I breathed against his mouth. “We have to stop.”He stepped forward anyway, crowding into my space until my back hit the rough bark of the t

Chapter: Chapter 293: your mark is goneTalia’s POVThe stretch was exquisite—almost too much, yet exactly what I needed. We both cried out, the bond singing between us as he filled me completely. For a second we stayed like that, joined as deeply as two beings could be, trembling with the intensity of it.Then he started moving. It was slow at first, giving me a moment to get used to the fullness again. After so long without him, my body had almost forgotten what it was like to be filled up. But the slow pace wasn’t enough for me. My wolf clawed harder. “Cass,’ I gasped, “more.”That one word was all it took. I could see the moment his restraint snapped, and he pulled out, almost completely. Then plunged in.Hard. Deep.A scream tore out of my throat, my hands coming up to his back, my nails digging into his skin.His pace was relentless.Each thrust slammed into me with the force of a man who had almost lost everything. I wrapped my legs around his waist, my heels digging into his back, urging him deeper. My nai

Chapter: Chapter 292Talia’s POV I didn’t know how long we remained in that position. And I didn’t care to know. I was with my mate. His arms wrapped tightly around me, grounding me in reality. The warmth radiating off him seeped into my bones. His scent was stronger now, drowning out the scent of the forest around us. And the feel of his skin against mine— Goddess. It was different. Stronger. More intense. Like the bond had rooted itself deeper beneath my skin. My breath caught in my throat. “Are you okay?” he murmured softly. “You almost died.” I pulled back slightly, just enough to look at him. His warm eyes were already on me. Filled with concern. Fear. Relief. He frowned slightly. “Your eyes,” he whispered. “They’re green again.” Oh. Something settled heavily in my chest. Something dangerously close to disappointment. His gaze slowly drifted downward, settling on my sternum where the Goddess’ mark had once rested. His fingers brushed over the spot gently. “It’s gone too.” I

Chapter: Chapter 101The forest had swallowed us whole.For three days, Amaya and I had moved through the trees like shadows, bruised and starving, every step a battle against the ache in our bones. The fire that had gutted the hall was long behind us, but the scent of smoke still clung to my hair, my skin, my memories. I could feel it every time I closed my eyes.We hadn't stopped long enough to rest properly. Sleep came in fits, stolen in hollows and shallow caves, broken by the crack of branches or the distant cry of wolves. Hunger gnawed at us, but worse than that was the silence, Ciro's silence. That empty place where my bond had once burned was a wound that no amount of running could heal.By the third day, my legs moved on will alone. My body screamed to give up, but Amaya was relentless. She pulled me forward with the same iron grip she'd had that night, refusing to let me collapse into the dirt."Jas," she whispered as we trudged along a narrow path littered with pine needles. Her voice was hoars

Chapter: Chapter 100The night smelled of smoke and blood.My lungs burned with every breath as Amaya and I stumbled through the trees, the glow of fire behind us staining the sky red. The hall was gone, swallowed by the destruction I'd unleashed, but I could still hear the chaos, the howls, the screams, the furious cries of those who'd survived.And they would come for us.Branches whipped against my face as I ran, but my legs were heavy, my body barely holding itself together. Amaya was beside me, her arm looped under mine, dragging more than guiding. She was bruised, battered, bleeding from her temple, but her grip was iron."Don't stop," she hissed through clenched teeth. "Not yet. Keep moving."I wanted to tell her I couldn't. That my ribs felt like they'd been shattered, that my heart was ripping itself apart with every beat. But I couldn't form the words. My mouth was dry, my throat raw, my chest tight.And worse, my mark was gone.I reached for it again, like I had a hundred times since Duncan sho

Chapter: Chapter 99They didn't even bother to speak to me when they came. Just a group of maids, their eyes hollow, their grips iron. They stripped me out of the rags I'd been left in and shoved me into a gown, long, white, mocking purity. My body screamed with every tug of fabric against my bruises, but I bit down on the pain and stayed silent.The dress wasn't for me, work for me. It was for him.When they were done, they wrenched my arms behind my back, rope biting into my wrists. Two of them dragged me through the corridors. The air reeked of smoke and sweat, of fear, and something darker that made my skin crawl.They threw open the doors to a vast hall. The hall was brightly lit with a huge chandelier. The room was filled with wolves, rogues, council defectors, faces twisted with eagerness to watch. And at the centre, on a dais like a king, sat Duncan.He smiled when he saw me.The crowd quieted as I was shoved forward, stumbling until I dropped to my knees before him. My wrists burned against the

Chapter: Chapter 98The door opened, and I didn't even have the strength to turn. My body ached, my ribs screamed with every breath, and my mind was still unraveling from Duncan's poisonous words.Then I heard a laugh, sharp and cold. It twisted my insides. Tilda.She strolled inside as though she owned the place, her heels clicking against the floor in a deliberate rhythm. She took her time, circling me like a predator toying with prey."Look at you," she sneered. "The great Luna curled up like a beaten dog. I almost pity you." She crouched, her face inches from mine, her eyes gleaming with cruel delight. "Almost."I finally raised my head, slowly, intentionally. My face was swollen, my lips split from biting back the tears, but I forced the corners of my mouth into the faintest smile. "Is this what you do to feel important? Kick around the broken?"Her smirk faltered, just for a second.I leaned into it. "Duncan keeps you around because you're useful, not because you matter. You're a tool, Tilda. Not

Chapter: Chapter 97"Ciro?" My voice was barely a whisper, my throat closing around the name. He didn't stir.Isabella shook him harder, her hands trembling. "Wake up! Damn it, Ciro, wake up!" Her sobs cracked through the air, raw and jagged, the sound of someone breaking. Tears streaked her cheeks as she pressed her forehead to his chest, her cries echoing down the hall.I couldn't move. Couldn't breathe. My body felt like stone, rooted to the floor, staring at the sight that shouldn't—couldn't—be real. My heart slammed against my ribs so hard I thought it would split open."What... what happened?" I whispered, but no one heard me. Or maybe no one cared to answer."Jasmine!"Amaya's voice cut through the haze, sharp and urgent. Suddenly she was there, grabbing my arm, yanking me back from the nightmare. "We have to go—now!"I stumbled after her, numb, my feet barely keeping up as she dragged me through the corridors. The walls blurred, Isabella's cries still ringing in my ears, carved into my bones."No

Chapter: Chapter 96The room suddenly became stiff, small, almost closing in on me. Time slowed down drastically and my breathing became heavier.I felt it, being yanked out of my body suddenly and thrown towards the door. I shut my eyes, expecting to collide with the door but instead, I heard... sobs?My eyes flew open automatically, a sudden breeze hitting me. I wasn't in my room anymore.I was outside, where I had left them.Ciro was there, collapsed on the ground, his body limp, his face pale. My chest caved at the sight, the air torn from my lungs. Isabella was beside him, cradling his head, her sobs cutting through the silence like jagged glass.What?"No” The word ripped out of me, raw and desperate. I lurched forward, every instinct screaming to reach him, to touch him, to stop this, whatever it was. But my feet wouldn't move fast enough, like the air had thickened into water, dragging me back.The grass beneath me blurred, Isabella's sobs echoing, repeating, as if the world itself had narrowed t

Chapter: Chapter 19: the priestessLucien's POV"You never take a human," Rebecca said. Her voice dripped with sugar, that careful tone she used when she was heading somewhere she knew she shouldn't. I walked towards my desk, tucking away the book SHE had been reading.'Mate' my wolf growled, recognizing her scent. I clenched my jaw, slamming the drawer with more force than necessary. Mate.A human."We're not married yet," Rebecca continued, playing with her finger nails in an effort to look casual.She wasn't fooling anyone. "There's no need for a breeder."I turned to her, studying her for a second. Her lush lashes fluttered, her gaze falling on me.She smiled, a slow, seductive curve of her lips that was carved to distract. "There is a need for one," I started slowly. "If I say so."Her eyes hardened slightly, but she didn't let that smile falter. "Of course, King Lucien,” she purred, getting up from her spot on the bed. She walked towards me, her brown eyes hooded, her hips swaying slightly.Her hands wer

Chapter: Chapter 18: be compliantFive's POVAs I stepped out, the passage from that book echoed in my head. "Having a pup with a fated human mate would birth stronger offspring than pups from a chosen she-wolf mate."What did that mean? I went straight to the one person I could ask.The one person I wasn't sure I could trust yet. "What's your name?" I questioned. My roommate snapped her head up, her eyes narrowing on my forehead."It's gone."I stepped closer."What's your name?" I questioned.My roommate snapped her head up, her eyes narrowing on my forehead."It's gone."I stepped closer. "What's gone?""The mark." Her voice dropped into a whisper. "The mark from last night."A chill crawled up my spine.I ignored it."That's not important right now." I swallowed hard. "I need answers."She stared at me cautiously, like she was trying to decide whether I was dangerous or simply stupid."Answers about what five?"I wanted to snap at her, to correct her that I was five forty nine. But I bit my tongue. I hesitat

Chapter: Chapter 17: you feel it tooFive’s POVMy pulse slammed violently against my ribs.I could feel every inch of him behind me.The heat radiating from his body.The sheer size of him.And underneath it all—That dangerous power pressing against my skin like an invisible force.I swallowed hard, forcing myself not to react.“Curiosity is a dangerous thing,” he murmured against my neck.His voice was rough.Not the feral growl from last night.Slowly, I turned around and froze at how close he was.The King towered over me, one hand braced beside my head, effectively caging me against the desk.Stormy grey eyes stared down at me.Human eyes.Dark shadows sat under his eyes, tension pulling sharply across his jaw.He looked exhausted. My traitorous heart skipped.I hated that I noticed him. “You dismissed me last night,” I said quickly, trying to redirect my thoughts.Something flickered in his eyes.Regret?No.Someone like him didn’t regret anything.His gaze dropped briefly to my mouth before returning to my eyes

Chapter: Chapter 16: pups with a fated mateFive’s POV The Citadel was buzzing with the bizarre event from last night. The moon completely disappeared. It was a phenomenon that never occurred, yet it had, and it had shaken the entire werewolf world.Even now, hours later, the atmosphere inside the Citadel felt… wrong.Heavy.But my mind wasn’t on it. It was a chaos of everything that had happened—the terror on my roomie’s face, the threat in future Queen’s voice, and finally—The most infuriating part.How my body had reacted to the King. How my core had been slick and ready for him despite my fear, despite my abhorrence of being bred.I clenched my fist, knocking once before pushing the door open. The room was completely cloaked in darkness. The King’s scent hit me first, but my body didn’t react the way it usually did. Because it was wrong, distorted. There was no one here. Good.I didn’t want to encounter him. Not after last night. Not after I’d felt his thick cock lining my entrance. I swallowed harshly, hating t

Chapter: Chapter 15: betrothedFive’s POV“What’re you doing here?” My roommate snapped, rising to her feet. “I don’t—I don’t know.”My voice came out breathy from running here.Or that’s what I told myself. But the throb between my legs begged to differ. I hated myself in that moment, for feeling this way, for being turned on by the idea of that vile king taking me.“You were supposed to take care of the King’s rut,” she hissed, stepping closer. “How’re you here?”Her eyes were sharp, assessing, searching. It made me nervous. Still, I gave nothing away. I had nothing to give. “Did you runaway again?”She didn’t bother concealing the judgment in her voice. “No.” I glared at her. “He told me to go.”“That’s impossible,” she argued, her voice sharp. “If you keep rebelling, you’re going to put me—”She stopped talking as her eyes trailed behind me. She went completely still, her face losing all its color. I frowned, following her line of sight. There was a small window—the only window. That was it. I looke

Chapter: Chapter 14: pleaseFive’s POV The next time I heard a sound, it was the creak of the iron door as it was pushed open. Light flooded the cells, blinding me momentarily.My hands came up to shield my eyes, wincing at the sting. I didn’t get to adjust before the cell door opened and I was hauled to my feet by a guard. The second guard unlocked my shackles and together they pulled me away. I wanted to fight them, but the energy had drained out of me. They pushed me through a series of hallways and into a room, where I was washed and cleaned by a sea of blurry faces. By the time I blinked again, I was standing in front of the king’s door. This was it. I was going to be bred.I took in a deep breath, and pushed the door open. Only one thought stayed on my mind as I stepped in. I was going to survive. I had to. The room was dark, the only light coming from the moon’s pale glow slipping through the drawn curtains. The King’s aura was always powerful, always suffocating, but this was different. Th
