Ivonne's POV

The rest of the night felt like a fragile kind of peace… the kind you don’t fully trust, but you cling to anyway because it’s all you have.

I didn’t realize when my breathing finally evened out or when the tight knot in my chest slowly began to loosen, but at some point, Hector guided me to the bed, his arms still wrapped securely around me like he was afraid I might disappear if he let go.

“Come here,” he murmured softly, brushing his lips against my temple as he pulled me down w

  • Her thirst for vengeance   Larry show down

    Author's note: As we approach the end of the month, I will begin dropping mass chapters in bulk, please bare with the pace, and thank you for reading. EnjoyIvonne's pov"Ah, Ivonne," Larry purred, his red eyes glinting with satisfaction. "I knew you would come. I have been waiting for you! I knew the moment you realized how helpless your little Alpha was, you would walk right into my hands."He took a step down the stairs, spreading his arms wide. "Look at you. You didn't even bring your precious pack. I'm a little surprised, to be honest. I kind of expected you to at least TRY to bring your friends along, but I can sense that they are nowhere near here. Why is that?""It's none of your business," I said. My voice was completely flat. Cold. "Where are my children?"Larry chuckled, pressing for an answer. "Come now, Ivonne. It's not like you to walk into a trap completely unprotected. Are you not scared of what will happen to you without your friends here?"I stared straight into his

  • Her thirst for vengeance   Darkness and revenge

    Ivonne's pov"Ivonne? Ivonne, what are you doing?" A voice called out from behind me.I froze, my hand clutching the edge of my dark cloak. Slowly, I turned around.Standing in the doorway was Denise. She was holding a warm cup of herbal tea, her eyes swollen and red from crying. But when she saw me wrapped in the travelling cloak with my hood pulled up, her jaw dropped. The tea cup shattered on the floor, spilling hot liquid across the wooden planks."Ivonne?" Denise whispered, taking a step back in horror. "What are you doing? Where are you going?""I'm leaving, Denise," I said, my voice flat and hollow. "I have to go to the Obsidian Spire.""Are you crazy?!" Denise gasped, rushing forward to grab my arms. As a Lycan, her grip was strong, tight, and unyielding. "You can't go there alone! Larry will kill you! Hector is setting up the scouts right now. We are going to figure out a plan together!""There is no plan!" I snapped, pulling against her grip, but she held on tight. "If Hecto

  • Her thirst for vengeance   Ivonne's grief

    Ivonne's povThe courtyard was dead silent, save for the bitter crackle of extinguished lanterns and the sound of my own shattered, gasping sobs.The moment the demonic portal snapped shut, the black chains around Hector dissolved into thin air. He scrambled across the cold stone, gathering me tightly against his chest as I collapsed into absolute hysterics."I had them... but he took them... he took our babies Hector!" I shrieked, my voice breaking into raw, ragged screams.Hector held me like a man trying to keep his own soul from splitting open. His arms were shaking violently, and around us, our friends—Elara, Leo, Sevrin, Denise, Thorin, Justin, and Viera stood in total shock.Denise was weeping softly into Sevrin's chest, while Elara looked on with a pale, horrified expression, her hands clutching her own pregnant stomach.With a guttural, terrifying roar of pure agony, Hector stood up, turning to the nearest marble pillar. He slammed his bare fists into the stone over and over

  • Her thirst for vengeance   Larry is back

    Ivonne's povIt was Larry.His skin was pale, his veins black and bulging, and his eyes burned with a terrifying, inhuman crimson light.But he was very real, very here, and very much alive!"Larry?!" Hector roared, instantly stepping in front of me and the babies, his body surging as he prepared to shift into his giant Lycan form. "How the hell are you alive?!"Larry let out a dark, booming laugh that rattled the glass in the manor windows. "Did you really think a pathetic blood-clone decoy in an underground workshop was me, Alpha? It seems you and your Luna are really as foolish as I suspected you were." He sneered and fury bloomed in my heart.How dare he?! How dare he mock us after we mourned his death? After all his betrayal, we still mourned what we though was his loss!And here he was, spitting in our faces again. I was not about to let this slide.With a snarl, I called upon the ancient wolf spirit within my blood. Ulfris!A golden aura burst around us as Ulfris tried to surge

  • Her thirst for vengeance   Months ahead

    Ivonne's povDespite my inner fear, the months that followed were nothing short of a surprising miracle.The dark shadows that had hung over the Lycan realm for so long seemed to evaporate into the warm sunlight.Trade and tourist routes between the Lycan realm and the rest of the world reopened, fields blossomed with fresh green crops, and the sound of laughter replaced the heavy silence that used to blanket the capital.Walking through the central market with Hector, I felt a deep, overwhelming sense of pride. Citizens bowed with genuine warmth, handing us flowers and fresh bread, cheering for their Alpha and Luna."Careful, my love," Hector murmured, his hand resting supportively against the small of my back as we walked up the manor steps. His dark eyes softened with that endless, fierce devotion that always made my heart flutter. "You shouldn't be walking so much in your condition.""I am fine, Hector," I giggled softly, leaning into his side. "The healer said light walks are goo

  • Her thirst for vengeance   Happy unions

    Ivonne's povThorin stood up so abruptly that it made my heart clench. Everyone at this table knew he had been very against his brother's relationship with Denise in the beginning, but I thought he had changed his mind and finally accepted them?Heck! He had even made a public apology for trying to come between them in the past, so what was this about now?Chelsea reached out, placing a hand on his arm before Thorin walked around the table toward his younger brother.The room had fallen completely silent now and Sevrin tensed slightly, looking at Thorin, but to my surprise, Thorin didn't look angry at all.He looked deeply remorseful instead.Thorin stopped right in front of Sevrin and Denise. He looked down at their joined hands, then looked up into Sevrin's eyes."Sevrin," Thorin said quietly, his voice carrying a rare softness. "Before our Alpha and Luna speak... I need to say something."Thorin turned his gaze to Denise, his expression heavy with regret. "Denise... again, I want
