THE ALPHA'S NAUGHTY LITTLE CHRISTMAS GIFT.
I thought Christmas had already broken me. Betrayal, loss, and a miscarriage that shattered everything I’d built. So I did the only reckless thing a heart in ruins could do: closed my eyes, jabbed a finger at a map, and bought a ticket to wherever it landed. No plan. No hope. Just a wounded heart running from the wreckage.
I wanted quiet. Snow. A place to breathe and heal.
I found him instead.
A man who feels too wild for this world, all heat and muscle and dark, hungry eyes. He kisses like he’s claiming something. Touches like he’s learning every secret my body holds. His strength borders on impossible. His presence, addictive.
He calls me his naughty little Christmas gift. And every time he drags his mouth down my throat, I forget every reason I had to stay guarded.
But the deeper I fall, the stranger things become.
The room around him feels alive. The night listens when he speaks. His eyes flash with an animal glow that shouldn’t exist, and the sound he makes when he’s holding back, low, guttural, trembling the air between us doesn’t belong to any man.
I should run. Ask questions. Save myself.
But I’m far too gone. Even willing to be ruined by whatever he is.
So I ignore the question whether I’m losing my mind, or whether the fear curling beneath the heat is real.
And let him keep unwrapping me like the gift he thinks I am.
Because whatever lives inside him…it’s the first thing that’s made me feel alive again.

Chapter: Chapter 10: HAZE.His hand slides up her thigh, fingers tracing skin that burns hotter than any fever should allow. Then he stops. Leans close until his lips brush her ear."We should end it here."Ivy's eyes snap open, frustration bleeding through the haze. "Why?""Because I'm the danger you want to run from.""And if I don't want to run?"Kai pulls back just enough to meet her gaze. His eyes have gone dark, pupils dilated. "I'll ruin you.""Do it." She challenges. "I'm already shattered. What worse damage can you possibly do?""Oh, darling." The endearment sounds like a threat. "You have no idea what kind of darkness I carry. I won't just ruin you. You'll become mine. Mine to do whatever I want with, and believe me, that's a lot.""I'm not afraid." Her whiskey-rough voice goes straight to his cock. "Let your darkness consume me. Take me. Own me."Valor roars inside his skull, clawing at his control. "Claim her. Mark her. Make her ours."But Kai's human side fights him, taking control.He closes his e

Chapter: Chapter 9: WRONG IS WHAT SHE WANTS.“Mom, I’m fine.” The words scrape out of Ivy, barely holding back the pressure behind her eyes.“Honey.” Her mother’s voice cracks through the phone speaker. “You know we love you. We’ll always support whatever you need, but you don’t have to run—”“I’m not running.” Ivy’s throat closes around the lie. “I just needed a vacation. Time to clear my head.”She hears her parents talking over each other at the other end, words tangled and frantic, before her father’s voice finally fills the receiver.“Couldn’t you have picked literally anywhere else? Paris? Bali? Hell, even Cleveland would’ve been better than Mystic Valley.”Ivy presses her palm against her forehead. “What’s wrong with Mystic Valley?”“Everything,” her mother cuts in. “Sweetheart, pack your bags. We’ll wire money for a flight tonight. Go to the Maldives. Our treat.”Ivy wishes she could have chosen somewhere else. The memory of glowing eyes and fangs surfaces. It doesn't make sense to her. But worries her is what almost hap

Chapter: Chapter 8: NUMENESSA.Elder Torren shifts, breath catching like it hurts to hold in. He tries to restrain himself and conceal the disbelief on his face.but Garren’s fixation snaps something loose in him.“This is madness,” he mutters, barely above a breath.Every head whips toward him. A single suspended heartbeat. No one blinks or even dares to breath because calling an Alpha’s command insane is the suicide everyone recognizes on instinct.Garren lifts his gaze slowly, the movement making the hairs on every neck rise.“Say it again.”Torren lifts his chin. Foolhardy. Brave. Doomed. “We’re draining the pack dry,” he fires back. “The southern villages can’t feed themselves. The western wells are dust. And you want to chase a prophecy?” His rises more than it should because it's layered with fury and desperation. “Our people need food. Water. Shelter. Not ghost stories.”Archer’s hand slams the table, the wood shuddering beneath it. “Enough, Torren.”“Don’t silence me,” Torren retorts. “At least I’m speaking

Chapter: THEY KNOW.He has tried to bury that memory but with Jackson mentioning it, he remembers. The night Kai unintentionally challenged his father against his plan to wipe out a whole weak pack simply because he deemed them unworthy. When the pack's defender tried to fight him, his power exploded, nearly killing the defender and two others who tried to intervene.His father, Alpha of the prestigious Beacon Hill Pack, ruler of one of the oldest wolf bloodlines in North America. He looked at him with disgust instead of pride, and made his judgment without hesitation. He mercilessly sent Kai into exile."We built this," We built this,’ Jackson says, voice breaking. "Mystic Valley. You took a scattered pack of rogues and rejects and turned them into something that rivals the great packs. You've expanded our territory, and earned respect from wolves who wouldn't have spit on you a decade ago."Kai stays still, but something tightens in the line of his shoulders."The elders at Beacon Hill is finally list

Chapter: Chapter 6: WORRY OF THE BETA.The kiss is a mistake he doesn't have time to regret.One heartbeat she’s furious, breathing hard enough to shake, and in the next she’s on him—soft mouth, reckless heat, a collision he never saw coming.Kai reacts before thought can interfere.His hand finds her hair almost in disbelief, fingers curling at the base of her neck as if he’s afraid she’ll disappear if he doesn’t hold on.Her gasp slips into his mouth, sweet and warm, and he swallows it like it’s something he’s been starving for. His other hand finds her cheek, thumb gliding along the slope of her jaw before guiding her chin upward, angling her perfectly for him.Her body softens beneath him, a low sound slipping from her throat—half surrender, half disbelief as if she doesn’t understand why she wants this but can’t stop herself.Kai isn’t any better. He didn't plan to kiss her let alone dominating her mouth like this. But planning evaporates the moment her lips part for him.The first brush of her tongue against his is d

Chapter: FRACTURED.Ivy surfaces from darkness like someone clawing her way out of a frozen lake.A sharp inhale slices through her chest. Her heartbeat slams against her ribs, fast and frantic. Ceiling beams waver above her. Massive king-size bed beneath her, dark oak dresser against the far wall, leather armchair by a stone fireplace that's seen decades of use.Everything is masculine. No clutter. No softness. Just clean lines and the faint scent of cedar and wildness.This is the Alpha's territory. Somewhere she shouldn't be but doesn't know that.This isn’t her motel. This isn’t anywhere she knows. Her pulse spikes, panic burning like lightning under her skin.The last thing she remembers is teeth, snarls and her palms erupting in blue fire and then darkness swallowing her whole.A shadow shifts. Ivy jerks upright, breath stuttering.He leans over her, too close, too still, sunlight sliding behind him and catching the edges of his hair in gold. His presence fills the room the way a storm fills a hori

Chapter: EPILOGUE...The soft rays of the morning sun painted the room in a warm golden hue as Lana cradled her newborn daughter, Kaylida, in her arms. She was a replica of her father, Tyler but had gotten her mother's hair. She was the best gift to the United pack, loved by all.The little one cooed gently, her tiny fingers grasping at the air. Tyler stood beside Lana, his eyes filled with awe and love for the precious gift they had been blessed with.Nine months had passed since Kaylida's arrival, and the family decided to celebrate by going on a picnic. They invited Kamala, to join them. The tranquility of the pack's garden provided the perfect setting for a relaxing day under the azure sky.As they set up their picnic spot, Lana saw the memorial stand nearby. It bore the names of fallen loved ones: Elijah, Kaylee, Katida, and many others. A wave of bittersweet memories washed over her, and she felt compelled to honor their memory.Lana turned to Tyler, her voice filled with emotion. "I'm glad we decid

Chapter: CHAPTER 166: THE BEAUTY OF THE ASHES.Several months later...Months have passed with Tyler and his community doing nothing but rebuilding. He had Kamala brought over to join them. The land has brought together several packs focused on making the King's pack unmatchable.Lana agreed to have everything attributed to her past buried as it was a long time. A few times, she heard from Jack and Alpha Raven.Amid the reimagined Pure Crescent pack, a vibrant tapestry of unity and diversity unfolded. The once desolate lands had transformed into a breathtaking haven of life and serenity. As Tyler and Lana strolled together, their footsteps accompanied by the gentle rustling of leaves and the sweet scent of blooming flowers, their eyes beheld the beauty that surrounded them.Fields of wildflowers stretched as far as the eye could see, their colors blending harmoniously, painting the landscape with hues of crimson, gold, and azure. The air was alive with the melodic chorus of birdsong, and the delicate whispers of the wind through t

Chapter: CHAPTER 165: THE UNITY OF BODIES AND SOULS.Afterward, he clasped her against him so tightly, it was to the point of pain. She needed it and wanted him to squeeze her even harder.They had no idea how long they remained like that, hearts thundering together, his hips softly rocking. Hours might have passed. When the now aggressive air began to flog their skin through the open window. "Is there a bathroom here?" Tyler questioned.Lana nodded pointing to the closed door on the left.Tyler didn't pull out. He carried her, with him buried deep in her straight to the bathroom. It was a simple one with a shower head, bathtub, and toilet area which was demarcated by a transparent glass. There was a cabinet with toiletries and towels and a bug full-length mirror.Tyler carried Lana under the showerhead, switching in the water with a free hand. The water from the showerhead began sputtering. Nonchalantly, he gave both of them a rinse without pulling away.Lana giggled, her breathing hoarse. "You do know that we need a proper bath after

Chapter: CHAPTER 164: THE HEART GREW FONDER.Like an addict yearning for her drugs, Lana shuddered as Tyler teased.Once she managed to reach the heavy weight of his cock, he rasped, “Use it.”She rocked her hips up as she pulled his shaft to her. When the head made contact with her pussy, he bit out a curse, his length jerking in her hand. Panting, she ran the crown up and down between her swollen, flaring lips.“So slick,” he growled. “So ready for me.”As she petted her clit with the bulbous tip, his towering body shuddered with need. “Enough teasing. Wanted this too long.”He covered her hand with his own, fitting the crown against her entrance, pressing forward just a fraction. As soon as she knew without any doubt that she was about to have the best moment of her life that has been denied for months, she relaxed.He pulled their hands away, then began easing deeper, wedging the broad head inside. Her gasp was cut off by his lips, hungry and insistent as he sank his cock farther. Each inch forced her to stretch more and mo

Chapter: CHAPTER 163: AFTER THE BATTLE COMES THE PLEASURE.The whole place was still in a frenzy as the dead and injured were being carried out. As Lana swayed her hips ahead of Tyler trying to help in whatever way she could, Tyler pulled her aside.Cupping her face with both of his hands, he brushed his thumbs over her cheekbones. “I need you," he whispered against her ears, and his breathing quickened."I need you too," Lana replied. "However, the pack needs us more. We need to put things in place. We have to decide where everyone would settle before we can have our moment," Lana reminded him as she ran her slender fingers through his now lengthy hair.The last thing as having a haircut and trimming his beard has been at the far corner of Tyler's head due to the whole commotion.He burrowed his stare into Lana's eyes, smiling proudly at her. He couldn't believe that he had almost given up such a wonderful soul due to anger. He was beyond glad that they found their way back to each other.With a calm face, he wrapped his hand around Lana's w

Chapter: CHAPTER 162: THE PEACE WE BRING.As the smoke cleared and the victorious warriors gathered, Lana and Tyler stood on the grand balcony overlooking the battlefield, the weight of their recent triumph heavy on their shoulders. Annik knelt by their side, his eyes reflecting a mix of embarrassment and anger. The gathered wolves, both from the Pure Crescent pack and other clans that had come to their aid, watched with bated breath, their attention fixed on the trio who had emerged triumphant. The wounds of the battle were evident on their bodies, but their spirits burned with newfound hope. With a commanding voice that resonated across the assembled wolves, Tyler spoke, his words carrying the weight of authority and compassion. "Today, we have emerged victorious, not just as separate packs, but as one united force. We have proven that when we stand together, there is no darkness we cannot overcome." A chorus of howls echoed in response, a symbol of unity and agreement from the wolves who had fought valiantly side by side

AXEL’S POV:The sky had begun to get extremely day only illuminated by stars and the lanterns, but our day—our moment—still shimmered in full glory. The music was soft now, guests rising to mingle under string lights and glowing candles, waves whispering their rhythm as the reception began. They enjoyed their meals.Avery leaned into me as we walked toward the long table under the palms, her belly nestled against my side, her laugh sleepy, warm.“I still can’t believe you tricked me into getting married today,” she teased, tugging at my hand.“You cried.”“I did not.”“You did. Sea has a recording.”“Ugh. You’re lucky I love you, Axel Grayson—”Then she froze.Her eyes widened.A hand flew to her belly.“…No,” she breathed. “No, no, no, not today.”I turned to her, gripping her arms. “What is it? Avery?”She gritted her teeth, the next breath sharp and shallow. “My water just broke.”My world tilted. “What?”She grabbed my collar. “You did this! With your surprise wedding and your vow

Chapter: CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED & THIRTY-FOUR: A VOW BEYOND THIS WORLD. AXEL’S POV:Orion had never looked more beautiful.The beach shimmered beneath the golden spill of twilight, soft waves caressing the shore like a lullaby. A stretch of ivory sand had been transformed into something sacred—our altar of renewal.Tall, curved archways framed the ocean view. Silk chiffon in pale champagne rippled in the breeze like whispers from the gods, woven with orchids, sunroses, and baby’s breath. Glass lanterns floated midair, enchanted by Kaius himself, each shining with soft golden flames.And above us? A sky bruised in lavender and soft peach, the clouds scattered like spilled petals.Pulling this off wasn't easy but it was worth it. I'd asked for Wilder’s blessings a while ago, spoken to Kaius, and have Ryan and Thaddeus set this whole thing up.I stood at the end of the aisle, barefoot in the sand, in a suit the color of the first snowfall—fitted to perfection. No tie. No chains. Just me, heart bared, waiting for the woman who had ripped down my walls and mad

Still… somehow it got me.Katie walked in, arms crossed, an unamused expression riding her usually kind features.“Seriously, Avery?” she sighed, snatching the remote from beside me and pointing it like a weapon. “You’re sobbing over a woman who spent the entire movie avoiding basic communication. You’re going to stress yourself and this baby into an early delivery.”“I can’t help it,” I mumbled between mouthfuls of kiwi and mango. “He made her a scrapbook, Katie. A scrapbook!”She rolled her eyes so hard I was sure they touched the back of her skull, then flicked the channel without hesitation.The screen jumped to a live news broadcast.“…and there he is—Axel Grayson, CEO of AXEVY SEA STUFFY—officially opening their third East Coast distribution center…”And there he was.

I stood before the tall mirror, fastening the final button on my deep charcoal suit jacket. My once-short hair was longer, combed back with a natural wave, a nod to this gentler chapter of my life.For the first time in a long time, I saw a man in the mirror I actually recognized—peaceful, grounded, changed.These past three months hadn’t just been healing. They’d been transformational.Avery and I used them to rebuild—our bond, our routine, our very foundation. We talked through the pain. The secrets. The violence. And somehow, my respect for her deepened every single day.She was the one who’d stayed strong when I broke.She carried our name, our daughter, our unborn child, our legacy—through war, death, and fire.She stood where I couldn't.

He was the same man I'd met in the bushes after Axel, Sea and I got lost walking back from the beach. The one that warned me about Akira.But now… now I understood.“You,” I whispered, breath catching in my throat.He gave a soft nod, a kind smile pressing into the corners of his lips. “You remember.”Axel and I stood to face him, a mutual gratitude threading silently between us.“Thank you,” I said, stepping forward. “For everything. For saving us.”He gave a slight bow, humble yet firm. “You shouldn’t thank me. I simply did what I was meant to do.”“How did you do it?” Axel asked. “How did you know?”He paused, his gaze sweeping ac

One knee felt like it had been shattered from the inside out, and every breath I took dragged a thousand knives across my lungs. My vision faded but I kept my eyes on my wife.She was suspended in the air, her limbs trembling, her screams fading into shallow whimpers. Her hand stretched over her stomach as if trying to protect the child we made with love and desperation. That sight tore through the agony.Something inside me roared to life, louder than the bones grinding in my body. Stronger than death whispering in my ear. I had to get to her.I tried to stand.My left leg gave out.I forced it back under me.And then—the temple doors exploded.Light surged in like a divine reckoning, and a silhouette darted through the dust.A man. Young. Wild-eyed. Fast.He raised his arm and threw a dagger, its blade glinting like silver lightning.“The
