THE WOLF THEY BURIED ALIVE
They called Nyla Graves wolfless. They treated her like she was nothing. And the man she believed was destined to love her became the one who destroyed her in front of the entire pack.
Blake Mercer, her fated mate and Alpha, rejected her publicly and chose Sienna Vale instead. Nyla's world shattered, leaving her with a broken bond, a ruined reputation, and questions no one dared to answer.
But before she could disappear into the life they had forced upon her, a royal messenger arrived with a summons from Ronan Black—the ruthless Lycan King whose name alone could silence an entire kingdom.He wanted Nyla.Not because she was beautiful.
Not because she was broken.But because he knew something about her that she had spent her entire life believing was impossible.
Something buried beneath her skin was awakening. Ancient secrets began to surface, revealing that her supposed weakness might have been the greatest lie ever told about her. And the deeper Nyla dug into her past, the more she realized that her rejection was only the beginning of a much darker conspiracy.Caught between a dangerous king, a former mate haunted by secrets, and enemies determined to keep her powerless, Nyla must uncover the truth about her bloodline before it destroys everything she has left.
But Nyla is no longer interested in begging for love, acceptance, or a place in a world that rejected her.She wants answers. She wants power. And she wants the truth.
Because the wolf they buried alive is beginning to wake.
And when she finally rises, the kingdom that buried her may be the first thing she brings to its knees.

Chapter: Chapter 12: The Bond That Wouldn't BreakI made it halfway down the corridor before my legs gave out.One moment, I was walking away from Blake Mercer with my head held high. The next, I was gripping the stone wall, struggling to remain upright as another wave of pain tore through my chest.I gasped.The rejection bond had not disappeared.It was supposed to be gone.Blake had rejected me before the entire pack. He had spoken the words that should have severed our connection, leaving nothing between us except memories and the humiliation he had inflicted upon me.Yet I could still feel him.Not as a comforting presence. Not as the man I had once loved.I felt him like a thorn buried beneath my ribs.Every time my heart beat, something pulled at the wound inside me.I pressed my palm against my chest."Why won't you leave me alone?" I whispered.A door opened behind me."Nyla!"Mara rushed toward me, her face pale with fear.She caught me before I could slide to the floor."Oh, goddess. What happened to you?"I tried to answe

Chapter: Chapter 11: Rejected Before the PackThe hall had gone silent.Hundreds of eyes rested on me as I stood before the man I'd once believed would be my future.Blake's hand remained wrapped around Sienna's.I couldn't stop looking at it.His fingers rested against hers with an ease that made something twist painfully inside my chest.He had touched me like that once.Not in public, not where anyone could see, but in the quiet places where we had allowed ourselves to forget the difference between an Alpha and an Omega.He had held my hand beside the river.He had brushed a strand of hair away from my face.He had promised me that, when the time came, he would stand beside me.Now he wouldn't even meet my eyes."Nyla Graves," he began, his voice carrying across the hall. "You have been part of Blackthorn Pack for many years."I swallowed."Yes, Alpha.""During that time, you have lived under the protection of this pack."Protection.The word struck like an insult.I thought of the names people had called me. The work I'd been

Chapter: Chapter 10: The Alpha's Public BetrayalBy midday, everyone in Blackthorn Pack had heard about Lady Seraphina's arrival.By the afternoon, everyone had heard that the Lycan King knew about the fire.And by evening, rumors had spread so far that even the servants who usually avoided pack gossip were whispering about royal bloodlines, old symbols, and the possibility that something had gone terribly wrong.Nobody mentioned my name directly.Not when I passed through the kitchen.Not when I carried fresh linens into the guest wing.Not even when two guards stopped talking the moment I approached.But I could feel their eyes following me.For years, I had been the girl nobody cared enough to notice.Now, every glance felt like a question.I hated it.I hated knowing that people were discussing my life while I was still struggling to understand it myself.Most of all, I hated Blake.Not because he had ordered me out of the guest room. Not even because he'd tried to make me remove my pendant.I hated him because, when Seraphina c

Chapter: Chapter 9: The Woman in the Silver DressI barely slept that night.Every time I closed my eyes, I saw the figure outside my window.The silver object in the stranger's hand.The way my pendant had burned against my skin.And the strange certainty that whoever had stood outside my room hadn't come to watch me.They had come to find me.By sunrise, the figure had disappeared, leaving no footprints beneath my window and no explanation for the heat that had lingered around my neck long after the pendant cooled.I considered telling Mara everything, but I stopped myself.Blake had already warned me to keep quiet about the strange things happening to me. Councilman Darius had reacted to my healing as though he knew exactly what it meant.And someone had been watching my room.For once, I decided to keep a secret of my own.I tucked the pendant beneath my blouse, dressed, and stepped into the corridor.The entire packhouse seemed to be awake.Servants hurried past carrying folded cloth, flower arrangements, and boxes of decoration

Chapter: Chapter 8: The Night Everything ChangedThe trouble began with a smell.Smoke.I noticed it shortly after midnight, when the packhouse had settled into silence and most of the lights had been extinguished.At first, I thought someone had left a cooking fire burning in the kitchens. It wouldn't have been the first time a careless worker had forgotten to check the ovens.Then I heard footsteps running through the corridor.A door slammed.Someone shouted, "Wake the Alpha!"I sat upright.The smell of smoke had grown stronger.I hurried to the window and looked outside.A pale orange glow flickered beyond the ceremonial grounds.For several seconds, I couldn't understand what I was seeing.Then the first scream reached me.The ceremonial hall was burning.I rushed from my room without stopping to put on proper shoes. The corridor was already filling with frightened voices as pack members emerged from their bedrooms."What's happening?""Get everyone outside!""Where are the guards?"I followed the crowd towards the courtyard.

Chapter: Chapter 7: A Wolf Among WolvesThe training grounds were the last place anyone expected to find me.I knew that because three separate people stopped what they were doing when I walked through the gates.One young wolf nearly dropped the wooden practice sword in his hand.Another whispered something to his companion.A third laughed.I kept walking.The morning air was cold, and the smell of damp earth rose beneath my boots. Dozens of pack members had gathered to practise before the ceremony. Some sparred in pairs, while others ran along the outer track or worked on their defensive movements.I had passed the grounds hundreds of times.I had never entered them voluntarily.Not since I was sixteen and a training instructor had ordered me to join the younger wolves for an assessment.I remembered standing among them, trying to ignore their curious stares.I remembered the instructor asking me to summon my wolf.I remembered the silence that followed when nothing happened.By the end of that morning, half the pack had
