Novels by Krystal Alex

Selene POV I walked through the pack house looking for Kael. My heart was beating fast. The book was hidden under my dress, pressed against my stomach. I needed answers. I needed to know what I really did when I was a child. What made everyone so scared of me. A servant told me Kael was in the training area. “He doesn’t like people bothering him when he works out,” she said. I didn’t care. I was going anyway. The training area was outside. I could hear fighting before I saw it. Metal hitting metal and people breathing hard. I stopped and stared. Kael was fighting two men at once. He had no shirt on. Sweat made his skin shine in the sun. His long black hair was tied back but some pieces fell in his face. He moved like he was dancing. Fast and smooth. Every muscle worked as he dodged and attacked. One man came at him with a sword. Kael spun away and kicked him in the chest. The man flew back and hit the ground. Another man tried to grab Kael from behind. But Kael was already t

Selene POV I ran to the bathroom and threw up. My stomach was already empty, but I kept trying to vomit. Nothing came up except bitter liquid that burned my throat. My head hurt so bad I thought it might explode. I fell down on the cold floor and held my head in my hands. The room was spinning around me. I didn’t know what I expected when I took my mother’s book. But it wasn’t this. I picked up the book again with shaking hands. I had to read the words that changed everything. Monster, monster. I hope my baby Elara is safe. She is a monster. The priestess tried to stop her powers, but after the attack… her eyes turned purple and those people died. All of them. My own daughter killed all those people. The words made me feel sick again. But I kept reading. She doesn’t remember what she did. She doesn’t remember the blood or the screaming. Doesn’t remember how they begged before she killed them. But I remember all of it. How can I love something that kills so easily? My hands we

Selene POV I woke up from sleep before dawn, my body felt stiff from sleeping in the same position all night. Morning light forced its way through the thick curtains. Sylvester's side of the bed was empty...he was already up, probably preparing something to eat. Perfect. I dressed quickly in a simple day dress, something that wouldn’t draw much attention. Today I would get that key, and today I would finally read my mother’s book. I should have taken it with me the day I was leaving but I was clouded by anger .I regret leaving it behind . But until I had that dream I thought it was just things that won’t have much meaning to me. Everyone was already busy as I made my way toward the great hall. Servants hurried past carrying trays of food, and I could hear the low murmur of conversation from various rooms as the visiting packs began their day.

Kael POV I slammed the door to my chambers with enough force to rattle the windows, my chest was heaving with barely controlled fury. The sound echoed through the room like a gunshot, but it did nothing to release the rage burning through my veins. Sylvester. My brother. My closest friend. The man I trusted above all others had betrayed me in the worst possible way. I paced across the room like a caged wolf, my hands were clenched into fists so tight my knuckles had gone white. Every breath felt like swallowing glass, every heartbeat a hammer blow against my ribs. She had chosen him. My mate, my Luna, the other half of my soul …she had chosen my best friend over me. The images from the banquet hall kept flashing through my mind on repeat. The way she had looked at him with such trust, such… love. The way his scent had been all over her, marking her as thoroughly as any bite could. The possessiveness in how he touched her, like she belonged to him… I couldn’t even sense the mark

Sera POV “I can’t believe this,” I said, dropping my travel bag on the floor with more force than necessary. “We have to share a room.” The accommodations were elegant enough …with polished wood furniture, rich tapestries, tall windows overlooking the gardens. But there was one glaring problem. “And there’s only one bed,” Callum said, as he surveyed our quarters. I felt heat creep up my neck. Of all the situations to find ourselves in, this was the most awkward. Sharing close quarters with Callum for two weeks when we could barely have a civil conversation most days. “You can take the bed,” I said quickly, gesturing toward the large four-poster dominating the room. “I’ll take the couch.” “Don’t be ridiculous. You’re not sleeping on that thing for two weeks.” “I’m perfectly capable of sleeping on a couch, thank you very much.” “I didn’t say you weren’t capable. I said you shouldn’t have to.” We stared at each other for a moment, the familiar tension that always seemed to simm

Selene POVAs the sun began to set, casting long shadows across our suite, Sylvester walked out from his room dressed in a formal evening attire. His white hair was perfectly styled, and he had changed into a deep navy jacket that made his pale eyes even more striking.“Are you ready for dinner, my princess?” he asked, adjusting his cufflinks with so much ease. “The first evening feast is always quite the spectacle. It would be good for us to make an appearance and show the other packs that we are united.”When I looked down on myself ..I realized I was still in the silver dress from earlier…i felt a wave of exhaustion wash over me. The thought of facing another room full of people, and pretending everything was normal when my world felt like it was tilting off its axis, made my stomach turn.The day had been overwhelming in ways I hadn’t even expected..to be honest. Seeing Kael again, the weight of all those stares, the reunion with Maria and Elera…it all felt like too much to proces
