FATED TO A TYRANT
"There’s no way I would ever spawn a child for a violent and bloodthirsty man like you."
- WILLA CORALINE ALFIERO
"Keep this in mind, Miss Alfiero… I would rather end the Wick bloodline than continue it with the likes of you."
- GALLAHAN WICK
Willa Alfiero had once naively thought she could fix her fated mate's twisted beliefs after she met him in the middle of a bloody battle.
But her optimism was quickly burned to ashes when she learned that her fated mate was no ordinary enemy, but was actually Gallahan Wick.
The General of the Culling Army.
Son of the Alpha King.
The tyrant who conquered and looted multiple human kingdoms.
Willa couldn’t bear to surrender to the side Gallahan belonged to, much less turn a blind eye to his twisted and cruel acts, even though nature and instinct dictated her to stay with him.
So, she ran away.
She was also forced to retreat as a Warrior of her pack and as a soldier of the ongoing war between the League of the Moon and the Culling Army.
Not because her mind and heart had been swayed.
Not because she wasn’t brave enough to fight Gallahan in another battle.
But because she was pregnant, and she intended to keep her children hidden from their tyrannical father.
But no secret could stay as a secret forever. Gallahan was bound to find out about the existence of his children.
With their opposing beliefs and strained past, would their tie as fated mates be enough to bring their family back together?

Chapter: INSOLENCEGallahan’s POVNot a single response came out from my lips as I found myself unable to weave a coherent response. I couldn’t even manage a proper reaction.I just went lax on the bed with my blank eyes glued to the pristine white ceiling.Meanwhile, William kept his mouth shut as well in an odd act of compassion, leaving me alone to dwell in my racing thoughts. Because damn it all!I had bollocksed things up again.I had messed up. Again.I did something to jeopardize my place in my family’s life.I let my emotions win and gave the monstrous side of me the leave to take charge and let fucking loose.Maybe Willa was partially right to see me as a cruel man.Fuck.Thoughts of how the twins might look at me after what I did were fleeting in the forefront of my mind, and a harsh pang of pain struck my right at my chest. It was so painful that I had to take a sharp and shuddering breath to ease it.“Hey, Wick?” William called cautiously from his comfortable perch on the armchair.I slowly

Chapter: PAUSEWILLA’S POVAs soon as I entered the lounge room, I was welcomed by a soothing scent of freshly steeped tea and a question uttered by a calm and serene voice that had grown familiar to me in the last several days.“The kids?” Zuleika asked without bothering to tear her gaze away from the porcelain tea cups she was filling with golden-hued tea.She and Maliya had quickly arrived in Wolverham after I had desperately asked Sarina to summon them through her spiritual familiar in the wake of Gallahan’s rampage against the rogue wolves and creature hunters. The two witches had then been staying in the Manor ever since.While it was a bit awkward between us at first, I still found that it was good and relieving to have them here.After all, the Alfiero Manor no longer kept any stock of the Wolf’s Draught, the potion that could induce shifting to werewolves, since the end of the war. We had no need for it since…Well…Since there were no longer any war comrades or packmates getting fatally in

Chapter: INFECTIONGALLAHAN’S POVOnce I noticed that Willa had fled with the twins, I let rage and primal instinct to kill take the wheel. I no longer have any slim shred of care for what would be left of the rogue wolves and the creature hunters once I was through with them.I became an artist of violence, creating a crimson masterpiece as blood painted the surroundings in splash and splotches.My claws dug into the skin and sliced through the flesh of both humans and wolves, tearing out piercing cries and harrowing yowls of agony out of their mouths.The pandemonium and the havoc I had brought upon was likely not that different from hell, where disturbed souls scream and beg for mercy.But unfortunately for these insolent beings, I was no god.I had no mercy to give any of them. Not even a sliver.Especially not to the rogue wolf who had been leering at my Willa as if he had intended to take her from me.I gouged both of its eyes and let the eyeballs roll away without bothering to spare them a glance

Chapter: PANDEMONIUMWILLA’S POVMy heart stilled when the attention of every rogue wolf shifted to me. But it went cold and plummeted when their gazes zeroed in on Gillian’s and Calisto’s small cowering forms.Every fiber of my being went alight with my protective instincts.I adjusted my stance, no longer trying to be furtive with my movement, just so I could shield my kids away from the rogue wolves’ view.Or at least shield them as much as I could.Then I sent another warning growl, making sure to put more threat in each gritty note.Gallahan echoed me without hesitation. But the sound coming from him rang louder and deeper that it almost made me shiver.It was a sound that could make any other wolf tuck their tail between their legs. One that told a history of violence. One that promised a grim fate to those that wouldn’t heed his warning.But oddly enough, it had soothed my rabbiting heart. It assured me that everything would be alright. At least for me and for our twins.I couldn’t be too sure I co

Chapter: WRONG MOVEWILLA’S POVThe ground beneath my paws as I ran through the trail on the far eastern side of the moorland was familiar. So was the crisp breeze brushing through my pelt while I towed in a slow jog behind two adorable pups that were rough-playing and making each other stumble every now and then.Gillian’s fur was much darker than Calisto’s. She could almost pass a good camouflage in the darkness of the night to anyone with eyes that were less vivid and sensitive. If she could just sharpen her stealth skills, Gillian would be a force to reckon with in hiding and spying. She would make an excellent hunter in the night.Meanwhile, it seemed like Calisto had little to no hope for that. But it wasn’t because he was slightly larger than Gillian, nor was it because his pelt was deep gray and had a very high resemblance with Grandpa’s. It was because he was quite ungainly on four legs. On top of that, he was a little too playful and loud, trotting and hopping and yipping the night away.It was

Chapter: TRIVIAL THINGSGALLAHAN’S POVExcitement rang clearly in Calisto’s voice, and when my gaze flickered to his direction, I saw how his round eyes glimmered with eagerness and hope.The ghost of a smile tugging at the corners of his lips was quite endearing, and I couldn’t help but mirror it.Even then, I said as gently as I could, “I don’t know, bud. I think you better ask your Mommy. She’s the boss.”Calisto quickly diverted his attention to Willa. “Mommy, we’re going, right? Right? We have to go on a run tonight. Please?”Willa huffed, closing her book and tossing it aside. But there was fondness in the way she regarded our son, sending a warm buzz beneath my skin.She was a good mother to our twins, and every time I saw things that proved it, no matter how little or trivial it might seem to others, I would always end up feeling so full of affection for her that I often felt that I might just combust on the spot.“We’re going. After all, the full moon is the opportunity for you and Gillian to shift
