The Alpha King’s Deadly Addiction
Manora has been called wolfless, defective, and a shame to the Crimson Fangs.
For twenty years, she lived in the shadows of her family’s estate, waiting for the day they would finally decide she was no longer worth keeping. That day comes when they send her into a cave with a dying heir.
Alpha Kaven was meant to be king. Instead, he is blind, stripped of his memory, and slowly rotting from a wolfsbane curse. He has been hidden away in a den so a traitor can quietly take the crown that should have been his.
Manora is sent to him as a final insult. A girl with no wolf, no power, and a past full of scars.
But the first time her blood touches his lips, something shifts. The curse weakens, and the man they left for dead begins to wake.
Now they are both being hunted. A future ruler who trusts no one, and a girl who is only starting to understand how deeply she has been lied to.
Every drop of her blood keeps him alive, and every step beside him pulls her deeper into a war she never asked for.
He needs her blood to survive the night, and she needs his strength to survive what is coming.
Together, they may become the most dangerous thing the seven packs have ever seen.

Chapter: 7. The King Who Remembers NothingKaven’s POV The silence felt wrong. The hunger was gone when it should have been tearing me apart. Instead, it felt like the beast was finally retreating. I got so lost in the sensation that I forgot to think about her or what I was doing. I simply took the strength as it came. What have I done. I jerked back like I had been burned. My fangs retracted from her skin and a low growl escaped my lips. I crawled off her lap and hit the stone wall of the cave behind me. My breath was ragged, not from hunger or pain but from something worse. It burned through me, spreading to every place the curse had touched. "I told you to stay away from me," I said. My voice was a wreck. "You should have run. You shouldn't have come back." The words came out rough and sharp, harsher than I meant them to be. I didn't even know if I was angry at her or at myself. "You came back for me," she whispered weakly. "In the woods. You could have left, but you didn't. You came back for me, Kaven." Then, stran

Chapter: 6.Blood that GlowsI crouched in front of the kids and pressed a finger to my lips.“Stay quiet,” I whispered. “No matter what you hear, don’t come out. Not until I come back for you.”Their eyes were wide, and they nodded at me, clinging to each other. I hugged them quickly, holding on for a second longer than I should have.“I’ll be back,” I promised, even though I didn’t know if it was true.Then I turned and stepped out of the hiding place.Damien was on the ground, barely moving, his body covered in blood. He groaned as he tried to crawl away, dragging himself across the stone.Kaven stood over him.He was huge, nothing like the man I remembered. His body was twisted with rage, and when Damien tried to lift his head, Kaven lunged at him. Damien screamed as he scraped helplessly across the ground.He looked up at the monster I once knew as a man.“Mercy,” Damien cried. “Mercy. Mercy, Alpha.”The words came out broken and desperate.I froze where I stood, my heart pounding as I watched. This was not

Chapter: 5.Stone WallsI woke up with a pounding headache, my body aching, and for a moment I didn’t know if I was safe. Slowly, I realized I was in a cave. Memories of Kaven and the woods came back, and my chest tightened. He had forced me to leave him.Then a woman walked in.“You’re finally awake,” she said.I sat up quickly, my hand moving to protect myself without thinking.“Don’t worry. I won’t bite,” she said with a small smile. “I’m Gilda. I found you passed out in the woods.” She reached for my hand, but I didn’t take it. My hand moved down to my thigh instead. I ran my fingers over it in disbelief. The scratches and the blood were completely gone.“What happened? My leg… it’s healed,” I said, shocked. “Did you…?”Gilda shook her head. “No. You healed on your own.”I blinked at her, still trying to understand. My heart was racing. How could that happen?Gilda stared at me for a moment, then told me to rest a little. She said she would bring food and let me freshen up. She called out to someone whi

Chapter: 4.PreyI stared down at the broken man at my feet. Every instinct left screamed at me to run. The rogue could still be out there, and this man, this monster, was the reason I was in this nightmare.I turned to leave, but a cold, heavy hand clamped around my ankle. I gasped, looking down to see Kaven groaning in pain and coughing up blood.“Let… go,” I whispered, prying at his fingers.Then I heard a faint crashing in the bushes. My heart pounded.I looked at Kaven again. His chest was heaving and his skin was deathly pale. He was the king in waiting, yet here he lay, dying in the mud like a discarded dog.I couldn’t just watch him die.“Damn you,” I hissed, dropping to my knees. “Fine. But you have to help me.”I scanned the area and spotted a heavy bush. I walked closer, pushing the leaves aside, and found a small opening. It was a cave, small, but just enough for us to hide inside.I grabbed his massive arm and tried to lift it over my shoulder. I almost choked under his weight, crushing m

Chapter: 3. RunI woke up tied up at the back of a moving truck, unable to see where Damien was taking me. My body felt weak, my fingers cold and light.I looked down at the dark bruise in the crook of my arm. The bastard hadn't just kidnapped me; he'd harvested me while I was unconscious.I winced, leaning against the truck to steady myself. Nothing in my life ever seemed to go right. If it wasn’t my father and sister making my life miserable, it was some stranger doing nothing different. My life was already against me, and the Moon Goddess only made it harder.The truck suddenly came to a halt and I heard footsteps approaching. He opened the back, yanking me out and I almost fell.The cold air wrapped around me and I shivered.Where were we?“Damien,” I whispered. “Where are you taking me?”I cried out and he pressed a hand over my mouth. “Shhh, shut the fuck up,” he hissed.“I’m trying to help you, Manora. I’m saving your life,” he said, his voice close to my ear.I struggled in his grip, but I st

Chapter: 2.Into the TalonsThe car passed through the gates of the Talons’ massive estate, which looked more like a castle. One of the strongest packs of the seven, with warriors posted around the fortress.Selene stepped out first, her head held high as if she already wore the crown. I followed quietly, clutching my bags, my cheek still burning from her claws.Now I understood why it mattered so much to my father that the throne came here.A tall, well built man approached us.“Selene,” he called. “You’re back early.”“Damien,” she replied in a performative tone.Damien’s gaze shifted to me, and his brow furrowed. His eyes moved over my tattered clothes.“Who is this? And why is she here?”“This is Manora,” Selene said, waving a hand dismissively. “My sister.”Damien froze. “Sister? You never mentioned you had a sister.”“She stays out of sight,” Selene said with a sharp smile. “She’s here to be Kaven’s new caretaker.”Her words stung. Part of me wanted to speak, but another part already knew I was not allowed
