Right in front of me, my dream solidified into reality.

I shouldn't be able to recollect. After my session with Ralia, the details had vanished again, just as they had in the previous times. But another glance at the man standing in front of me with an easy smile, capable of pacifying even the naughtiest child, it pushed its way to the forefront of my mind.

I might not have recognised him initially, but now I was certain—

He was indeed one of the figures from that dream.

The large, spacious hall fell quiet, their eyes on the three hefty men who walked in behind him. They also had similar builds to the other men I had seen. I had to control my bulging eyes.

What was he doing here?

"Alpha Dax, Alpha Damon". He greeted with a respectful nod. "Good to see you once again."

Covering up his surprise, Dax replied with a stiff smile,

"Beta Thorne. I was unaware of your visit. Otherwise, my brother and I..." He extended his arm towards Damon, who gave a short nod in agreement, "...would have

  • A Bond Of Fire And Fang    The Move

    AVAAs soon as those words were out, two of his men appeared before me.The next few minutes were a blur. I didn't get the chance to wonder where they had come from as they took my arms in a firm grip, pulling me along behind their brooding alpha.If they had watched our interaction or heard us, their stoic expressions said nothing.Honestly, I'd rather they didn't.My stomach twisted, feeling disgusted at what we just did.What I just did. And for the love of everything sensible, what he just said?Mate. Mate?Amidst everything I'd heard all day, this was the most absurd.Still reeling from the shock of the previous conversation, I silently let myself be dragged back to the pack house.My feet had just found the hardwood floor of the hallway when mumbled sounds of heated arguments filled the air."You had such development in your pack yet you decided to keep such information to yourself?"I didn't know whose voice it was, but somehow, I knew who the question was directed at."Her ge

  • A Bond Of Fire And Fang    The Third Mate

    My heart skipped as I spun around."W-who's there?"All I got in reply was the distant echo of my voice, but the disturbing feeling remained.Running back to the pack house wasn't an option, and towards the boundary was just me signing up to be caught if I got there earlier than planned. Mentally choosing the less frightening option, I stood my ground."I—I know...you're there; scaring people isn't funny. Come out... or go away."If not for my stutter, I might've actually fooled myself, or at least my rapid heartbeat.Instantly, the sounds of twigs snapping under the pressure of a foot that wasn't mine filled the air as a huge figure appeared.I knew who he was before I saw him.He approached. Over six feet tall and packed with enough muscles to be deemed fit but not bulky, Alpha Draven advanced with the regality of a lord born in the 1800s who had been somehow reborn as the son of a conglomerate.Compared to the couple of times I'd seen him, I had no obstruction to my full sweep. I wa

  • A Bond Of Fire And Fang    Confusion

    AVAA low growl was the first thing I heard when I came to, and the first thing I saw was darkness.Pure and undiluted.My eyes refused to open. I couldn't tell where I was, but from the suffocating smell of disinfectant, my guess was the pack clinic. The room felt eerily quiet, yet somehow I knew whoever had growled wasn't the only one here with me.My body ached all over. The intense, terrible pain I'd passed out from had reduced to a dull throb wrapped in the tight pressure of the bandage around my arm. Fighting the fogginess in my head, I inhaled deeply, willing my eyes open when someone spoke."They saw her."Dax?The anger in his tone sent chills down my spine."They saw the mark." He growled. "What do we do? What do we tell them?""I don't know," another voice replied.Damon."You don't know?" Dax snapped. "Am I supposed to tell the Alphas waiting in the hall—the Lycan Kings expecting me in an hour—that? You should've listened to me!""And what? Your plan was more reckless than

  • A Bond Of Fire And Fang    Exposed

    AVAI remember asking a vital question on the third day of training. I'd just fallen for the tenth time as I covered the second mile when I looked up at my trainer."I keep falling... what if, what if I'm caught? What do I do then?"Boredly picking at her nails, she tilted her head in my direction with a tired sigh."If you do, just surrender."Unfortunately, that was one piece of advice that I couldn't put to use.How do you surrender to someone who refuses to let you yield?I shouldn't have talked back. I should've played along. No. I shouldn't have opened my mouth at all. Horrified, I stumbled back as Astrid landed on all fours, baring her fangs at me.Half our audience leapt to their feet, the suspense unbearable. They all wanted to know what triggered the shift since most of our conversation went unheard due to our distance from the benches."Astrid, stand down, or you'll be disqualified." Delta, Raph warned, the veins in his neck protruding in frustration.She ignored him and in

    AVA"I-I-I don't know what you're talking about."Astrid squinted at me, "Are you playing dumb right now?" She frowned, her gaze questioning if I was acting or just plain stupid. But I couldn't think of anything else to say."You know, I was right about you. You've been unusually bright. I knew something was up. I bet you thought that you could actually win this. Don't tell me you really believe that you outran five of our best wolves?"I swallowed hard.No, I didn't.I knew it was strange. However, though it was just for a fleeting moment, I wanted to think so. Eyeing her jeering form, it suddenly occurred to me that I hadn't spotted her all through the chase; I was too occupied to ponder on it."Unlike the rest," Her voice went even lower. "I wasn't after winning this stupid chase. You were mine from the very beginning. I just had to get the rest out of the game."Wait, what?A cold wave of shock washed over me. My head whipped in the direction of the forest opening as a chilling rea

  • A Bond Of Fire And Fang    Caught Red-Handed

    AVAOne advantage, perhaps the only one, that came from my trainer being changed was that despite her loathing, like the rest, she actually trained me."Look," She had spat with disdain during our first session, "We both know all odds are against you. You've never worked out, and you're... human. My only advice to you is to run. And that's all I'll be teaching you how to do."So as soon as the shot went off, I took to my heels. Trying my best to implement each of the notable corrections she made as I encountered them."Don't ever run in a single straight line. You'll be caught."I dashed into the forest, my legs turning away from the clear path. My pulse raced, skyrocketing at the stomping of feet as they closed in on me.I stormed past the wet trees, drops of water from the leaves splashing on my face and clothes... the wetness stuck to my skin, extremely cold yet I continued.Not for a millisecond did I stop to peer at my pursuers. The fact that they still hadn't caught me meant they
