Chapter: Chapter 79: CooperateAfter handing the cup back to Topaz, I slowly got up and walked toward the table where the food sat. The smell hit me immediately, warm and rich, and my stomach growled traitorously. The last time I ate was before we visited Knox’s old pack and seeing the food before me made my stomach like that. She laughed softly.“Go ahead. Eat. I can get more if you’re still hungry.”I hesitated a bit.“What if this food is poisoned?”Topaz smiled. “No. I assure you that.”I nodded and, without hesitation, sat down and dug in. As I ate, my thoughts spun wildly.How long was I unconscious? The soup was hot and nearly burned my tongue, but I didn’t care. I swallowed it down anyway. Then I moved on to the chicken and vegetable wraps and let out a small, involuntary sound. They were… good, too good.“We eat a steady diet here,” Topaz explained. “Calories are monitored here. Everyone exercises daily, both in human and wolf form. They want you all in your best possible condition. Stronger. Faster. Wit

Chapter: Chapter 78: TopazNovember's POVWhen I swallowed the water, the cold slid down my throat like it was the first real thing I had felt in days. My hands were still trembling from everything. It happened so fast. The girl set the cup back on the small table like she had done it a hundred times before. Like waking up beside a kidnapped Moon wolf was just another morning routine.I watched her closely.Pretty did not mean harmless. She has a soft voice and does not mean safe. I had learned that the hard way.Still, my body was too weak to sit upright without my spine screaming due to the two bracelet-like made of silver and I don’t know the violet lining along with it but it keeps me weak. And my neck burned where they had stuck something into me. Every time I swallowed, I could feel the ache in the back of my throat, like I had been crying in my sleep. Which I probably had.“Better?” she asked.I did not answer right away. My eyes drifted to the corner of the room where the guard stood like a shadow. He

Chapter: Chapter 77: Kidnapped"Oh, she’s really a beauty, Knox. No wonder my bastard son loved her so much,” Crux said, his jaws set in amusement. "We could use her to breed. What do you think?" Breed me? No. Never. Knox smiled but didn’t reach his eyes.“Yep. Just like our deal.”"Deal? You'd have to kill me first.” I made my voice as low and dangerous as I could manage. Both my wolves were furious. They don’t want any of these bastards to father our future children. They both laughed at me as if I had told them a joke."That's not necessary, Moon-wolf," Crux said before touching my cheek."Don't touch me!" I screamed at him, scooting away from him but Crux seemed like he didn't mind it at all. "We have other ways to make you cooperate with us," Cruxl added. "Us? So what, you're a team now?"Crux turned to Knox and smiled. "You didn't tell her? Well, this is amusing," Crux said, looking at me with his arms crossed his chest. "What exactly do you want with me?" I asked impatiently. "I'm sure you can find ot

Chapter: Chapter 76: BetryaalNovember’s POV“...Make it quick,” I heard a faint voice the moment I opened my eyes. Within a few seconds, my brain in a panic mode made me remember everything before I passed out: My brother and I were being chased. We both entered our parent’s secret passage and we made it out and then Knox appeared. I remember Knox blaming Emerald and his unborn baby’s death.Damn it. Where is January? It took me a second before my eyes adjusted in the dark.“January!” There was silence and I couldn’t see him. “January!” I called again. “Where are you?”I was about to stand up but to no avail, I held on to my place by something and saw I was chained on the floor. Where the hell am I? What happened after I passed out?Suddenly, the door swung open and light coming from the outside blinded me. It took me a few seconds when my eyes finally adjusted to the light. “Wow. Even in the dark, your new eye color stood better than any she-wolves I saw,” Knox entered the room. “W-what did you do to my

Chapter: Chapter 75: Ex-matesNovember's POVAt the end of the forest, January and I stopped our track when we saw Knox. Yes, Knox standing before us like he was waiting. “K-Knox,” my brother asked, placing me behind him. “Jan, it's been so long,” Know said, his eyes red. “Let us go,” he said. “I’m sorry my friend but I can’t. I need her back,” he casually said, winking at me. It gave me goosebumps like I don't really know this Knox before us. “Let us go, Knox. It's the least thing you can do,” January begged. Knox looked at him and then back to me. “You know you can’t do anything right now. You’re weak.”“I won’t go with you. You had the chance but you threw me away!” I yelled at him.He shook his head and stepped a little closer to me but January positioned himself between us. "I'm sorry about what happened to you, to us. I was an idiot okay? Things changed. I want us to be together again. Let’s rebuild the bond that shattered between us. I promise that-”“There’s us anymore Knox. That has been decided w

Chapter: Chapter 74: The PlanNovember's POV"I don't know if I can leave you alone, Babe," Zeus said after we finished our food that Jordan insisted on. We were on our way back to the castle. "What if something will happen without me?""It's okay, I’ll be alright. Just a few talks with my brother. I’m worried about him. I'll be fine on my own," I said. Zeus was quick to reply. "No. I don't want you alone here. Take our best warriors. They know what.""It's really okay.""Ember…"His tone was a warning not to argue with him on the subject. Zeus never tried to tell me what to do and if he did insist on something, it's because he felt strongly about it and felt it was necessary. In cases like that, I didn't argue with him. "I'll send James and his men with you."Zeus didn’t stay much long after he and Jordan closed the meeting. Zeus had promised that he would lend a hand just like his grandfather had before. I want to stay for a bit and talk to my brother although Zeus was reluctant, he eventually gave in leavi

Chapter: EpilogueDarkness took me the moment I saw him. My legs gave out. My vision blurred. The last thing I saw before everything faded was the silver flame in his eyes, Seven, and then… nothing.And then warmth. That was the first thing I felt.Not the biting cold of the forest, or the damp chill of night, but a slow, steady warmth that wrapped around me like a cocoon. I shifted, confused by the softness beneath meth, e velvet-like bed, the silk brushing against my arm.And then the scent, it hit me. Lavender. Oak. Something faintly metallic.It was familiar, too familiar.My eyes shot open. The room was dim, the windows covered by long, heavy curtains that danced in a soft breeze. A candle flickered beside the bed. The walls are stone, regal, and carved with intricate patterns. And the ceiling…My breath caught.I knew this place. I had been here before. Lived here for weeks and months, disguised behind someone else’s name. Someone else’s face. This was the castle where I had pretended to be Sabrin

Chapter: Chapter 179: SavedI don’t remember when Amber slowed down.Only that, when I opened my eyes again, we were no longer crashing through the endless forest. The air was calmer, the scent of rot and blood faded into earth and pine.We’d stopped.I blinked, disoriented, my body sore and stiff. We were tucked between a jagged outcropping of stone and the thick roots of an ancient tree, a natural hollow, hidden from all sides unless you were practically standing on top of it. The brush above masked the space like a cocoon.A safe zone.Amber had shifted back, crouched nearby, her chest rising and falling in uneven bursts. She was breathing hard, drenched in sweat and rain, but she was watching the trees like a soldier on her last thread of strength. She heard me stir and turned her head. Her eyes softened when she saw I was awake.“We’re stopping here. Just for a bit,” she said, voice hoarse.I tried to sit up, groaning as my body protested. “Where... are we?”“Still deep in the forest,” she replied, handing

Chapter: Chapter 178: Never give upThe rain didn’t let up. It fell in heavy sheets, soaking the forest in silence and steam. We followed the trail from the map for hours, pushing through underbrush and ducking under fallen trees, our legs aching, our bodies barely holding on.But we didn’t stop.We couldn’t.Amber glanced back every now and then, her hand never straying far from the blade strapped to her thigh. I didn’t need to ask. I felt it too. That pull. That invisible thread tugging at my spine, warning me that something was wrong. Again.By midday, we stopped near a thicket to catch our breath, our clothes clinging to our skin, breaths misting in the cold air.That’s when Amber stiffened.She didn’t say a word. She just turned slowly toward the northeast, toward the path behind us. I followed her gaze.Nothing. Just trees and fog. And then I smelled it. Rot. Wet fur. Blood.My throat tightened.“No,” I whispered.“It’s them,” Amber said, her voice sharp with disbelief. “How? We’ve been running for days. We masked o

Chapter: Chapter 177: Chase 2A soft hand shook my shoulder.“Kayah.” Amber’s voice was low, but urgent. “Wake up. They’re gone.”I blinked hard, my brain slow to catch up. The dampness of the soil, the cold seeping into my bones, the overwhelming stench, it all came rushing back.“Gone?” I croaked.Amber nodded. “They stayed a while. Sniffed around. I thought we were dead for sure. But they gave up. Probably confused by the rot or lost our scent.”She offered her hand. I took it, groaning as I pulled myself from the shallow grave.“We need to move,” she said. “Opposite direction. If they circle back, we can’t be here.”We didn’t waste time. We shifted, our tired bones snapping back into fur and muscle, and we ran. Slower than before, sore and sluggish, but we moved. The trees blurred past in streaks of green and brown, the world quieter now. Still dangerous. Still hunted. But quiet.After an hour or two, the forest thinned, and we found it, a river. The sound of rushing water was the sweetest thing I’d heard in

Chapter: Chapter 176: The ChaseNo man’s land stretched wide and endless before us, untamed forest, broken earth, and shadows that whispered of the past. It was wild, yes, but free.We moved cautiously for two days, always in silence. Always watching. No patrols. No signs of trackers. Just trees and wind and the echo of our own breath.And for a brief, foolish moment, I let myself believe we’d made it. That maybe Axel hadn’t noticed. That maybe, just maybe… he didn’t care. But that night shattered the illusion.We’d made a tiny camp, just enough to rest and eat. Amber built a small fire, careful to shield it with rocks and branches. It barely flickered, barely glowed. Still… it was too much.The growl ripped through the forest like thunder. Low. Deep. Wrong. My blood turned to ice. Amber froze mid-bite. Her eyes met mine. We knew that sound.Ferals.Not rogue. Not Alpha.Ferals.An abomination of wolf and rage and madness. Creatures so far gone even the moon goddess had turned her back on them. Axel’s personal dogs.

Chapter: Chapter 175: Run awayI didn’t take clothes. Just stuffed everything into a plain black backpack. Something I could throw over my shoulder and run with. Clothes didn’t matter. Freedom did.I hid the bag in a loose panel behind the dresser in my room, then cleaned everything. Every step. Every breath. Every fingerprint.By the time night fell, I almost let myself believe this might work.Until I heard the door. I froze.The scent hit first, his scent. Axel. No. No no no..He wasn’t supposed to be here. Not yet. Not tonight. I shoved the panel back into place, threw myself onto the bed, and forced my body to go limp just as the door opened. He stepped in slowly, the weight of exhaustion dragging at his frame. His shirt was dirty, blood-streaked. His hair matted from sweat. He looked like he’d been through hell. But all I felt was fear.He looked at me.I smiled. Soft. Tender. Practiced.“You’re back,” I said gently, rising to my feet. “I was worried.”His eyes softened just a little. “You stayed up?”“I always
