That’s the first thing I feel as I drift into the realm of the living, raw, agonizing pain that claws through every muscle, every joint, every memory I’ve buried deep.I try to move, but my limbs are dead weight, like they belong to someone else. The darkness clings to me, thick and suffocating, until a dim flicker of candlelight filters through the fog in my mind. My eyes flutter open. The ceiling above me is is unfamiliar. The scent of medicine hangs in the air, laced with something metallic, blood, old and bitter.I’m alive.But at what cost?A presence stirs beside me. I turn my head slowly, every muscle screaming.It’s Dylan, my Beta. Loyal, dependable, always by my side. But there’s something in his eyes. A shadow. A hesitation that doesn’t belong there.My throat feels like sandpaper, my voice little more than a croak. “Where is she?”He stiffens.<

Kane’s POVWeeks. Endless, goddamn weeksEach morning I wake with fire in my blood, and each night I fall into restless slep with nothing to show for it but empty trails and false hope. It’s as if she never existed. As if my son had been nothing but a dream conjured in the haze of pain and regret.But I know better. I saw them. I felt her presence, her fear, her defiance, when they were ripped away from me. That memory haunts me more than the scent of blood in battle. And the silence that followed? It’s the loudest torment I’ve ever known.I stand in my war room, maps and intelligence reports strewn across the table like a battlefield. Pins mark every rumored sighting, every report of a she-wolf and child passing through human territories. We’ve scoured border towns, questioned informants, turned rogue packs inside out. And still...... nothing.“Still nothing?” My voice is low, but the threat in it is undeniable.Dylan stands acr

Avery's POVThe scent of pine and damp earth fills my lungs, grounding me as I sit beneath the old cedar tree that overlooks the training field. The moon hangs low in the sky, casting a gentle silver glow over the clearing. My son is a blur of motion, darting after fireflies, his laughter spilling into the night air like a song I never want to forget.It’s peaceful here nowIt’s not something I take for granted. Not after what it took me to finally get this peace.I tuck a loose strand of hair behind my ear, my eyes never leaving him. Every step he takes in joy is a reminder of why I had to leave. Why I had to disappear from the only life I’d ever known. Why I endured so much to get here.This place… Midnight Hollow… it is now unlike any other pack I’ve known. They didn’t welcome me with open arms at first. They were wary, curious, they literally bullied me at first. But I didn’t come here seeking approval. I came seeking safety

Kane's POVSearching relentlessly for months.For months, I’ve been chasing ghosts.Each day starts with hope and ends in bitter disappointment. Every trail I follow turns cold. Every whisper fades into nothing. I’ve scoured villages, burned through resources, turned allies into spies and enemies into informants. All in the name of two people, one of whom I barely got the chance to know, my mate.… and my son.And now, I’m running out of places to lookI sit alone in my war room, the firelight flickering over maps and reports littered across the table. My hands are clenched, knuckles white against the parchment. My wolf paces restlessly beneath the surface, snarling at our helplessness. The silence around me is suffocating.Then, there was a knock.Dylan steps in without waiting for my permission, a scroll clutched in his hand, eyes unreadable. He’s been with me long enough to know better th

Kane's POVThe wind howls as we ride into the unfamiliar terrain, a biting cold cutting through even the thickest of furs. The Midnight Hollow Pack.The name alone has haunted me these past few weeks, lingering in the back of my mind like a whisper I couldn’t shake. Every instinct screamed she was here. And now that I’m standing at the edge of their territory, I can feel it, like a current in the air, electric and impossible to ignoreAvery.My heartbeat thunders in my chest as I step past the final tree line. As we discreetly entered into the pack, we entered a large garden at first. And, in the center of the field, framed by moonlight and pine, is her.Avery.My legs nearly give out.She’s alive.Hair wind tossed and wild, eyes sharp like I remember. She’s dressed simply, but she stands tall.... proud, whole, no longer the woman who once fled from me in fe

Kane's POV"They belong to me"My wolf roars inside me as I stand in the middle of the garden, the cool wind biting at my skinMy eyes are locked on him, Callum. He’s standing too close to her, too damn close to what’s mine. Avery stands just behind him, her hand hovering protectively near our son’s shoulder.I can barely look at her without the fury building in my chest. But it's not just rage. It’s pain. Betrayal. A yearning so deep it feels like it’s been carved into my bonesI take a step forward, my voice low, steady, yet filled with every ounce of authority I’ve earned through blood and war.“That woman,” I say, my gaze cutting straight through Callum, “and that child…. they are mine. They belong to me”The words echo, slicing the air between us like a blade.Avery’s face pales. Her lips part, but no words come. Her eyes, those damn eyes I’ve seen in every dream, go wide

Avery’s POVI stood in the middle of it all, caught between two Alphas, one from my past and one from the fragile peace I had found in the present. The air was thick with tension, so heavy I could hardly breathe. All around us, the Midnight Hollow Pack had gathered and they stood frozen, their eyes flicking between Callum and Kane, waiting for a blow that hadn't yet landed.And then there was Callum.He didn’t speak right away. He didn’t react like I expected. No snarling, no immediate rejection of the challenge. Just.… a smirkIt curled slowly at the corners of his mouth, twisting into something dangerous and curious. His golden eyes weren’t filled with anger, no, they gleamed with something else. Amusement. Amusement at Kane’s presence. Amusement at his demand. Amusement at me, perhaps, for being the center of it all“You’re bold, I’ll give you that,” Callum finally said, his tone almost lazy, laced with mock a
Last Updated : 2025-04-26A Mate for my Lycan Alpha: His Mate, Her Nightmare Chapter 104: The Duel Begins
Avery’s POV The moment Alpha Callum says, “I accept,” the atmosphere changes completely. It’s like the earth itself goes still, holding its breath for what’s about to happen. I can hear the wind whistling through the trees, the distant howls of wolves in the woods beyond the border, the faint heartbeat of my son pressed tightly against my chest, but all of it fades as the two Alphas step into the center of the circle formed by the packThis isn’t just a fight. This is a declaration. A line being drawn in blood.Kane moves firstHe lunges forward with all the fury of a storm, his body was a blur of motionPain clearly ripples through his muscles, he’s not fully healed, I can see that, but he doesn’t care. He doesn’t hold back. Every swing, every strike, is laced with desperation. This is more than a duel to him. This is him clawing for a life that slipped through his fingers.Me.Our son.Us.“I won’t let yo

Avery's POVMy heartbeat increases as the fight drags on.The sound of fists meeting flesh, the dull thuds of bone against bone, echoes throughbthe clearing like a heartbeat. A violent, relentless rhythm. I clutch my son tighter, shielding his face from the brutality playing out before us, even as my own eyes remain locked on the bloodstained battleground.Kane is breaking.Not just physically, but in a way that sends a cold, sharp pain slicing through my chest. I see it in the way his shoulders droop after each blow, the tremble in his limbs as he pushes himself off the ground for the third, no, fourth, time. He sways as he rises, blood running down his temple, dripping from his jaw. But still.… he rises.“I won’t stop,” I hear him say, low and hoarse, a whisper of defiance that carries through the silence like thunder. It isn’t a threat. It’s a vow.He wipes at his eyes with the back of a shaking hand, smearing blood across his face, and lunges forward again. There’s nothing elegant

Avery's POV The whispers caame like the wind, soft, but impossible to ignore. Everywhere I walked, they trailed behind me like shadows, brushing against my ears. “Did you hear?” “The Alpha has cast Selene out.” "She begged.” "He showed no mercy.” “She was with another.” The rumors spread faster than wildfire. And I kept my head high. I didn’t flinch. I didn’t speak. I didn’t feed the flames. I had no need to. Dignity had become my armor. Silence, my sharpest weapon. I had spent too many years defending myself, biting back pain with grace. This time, I let the world talk while I simply walked through it. Selene, the name that once held weight in this pack, once dripped with entitlement and venom, was gone. Disgraced. Stripped of every illusion of power she once paraded in front of me. The same women who used to
A Mate for my Lycan Alpha: His Mate, Her Nightmare Chapter 113: The Breaking Point
Kane's POV The air in the packhouse was thick, tense with something I couldn’t quite name until I heard her voice echoing down the hall. Selene Her sharp, clipped tone lanced through the silence like a blade. “You clumsy little thing!” she snapped, voice shrill and soaked in entitlement. “Do you even know what this is worth? Or is your brain too small to understand luxury?” I turned the corner just in time to see the young servant girl flinch, eyes wide and terrified, tea dripping down her wrists and onto the marble floor. Selene loomed over her like a wolf over a rabbit, proud and cruel, forgetting her place entirely. I stepped in before I realized I was moving. “You will treat her with respect,” I said, voice low and cold. I didn’t shout. I didn’t need to. Selena turned, mouth already open to defend herself, probably with some pathetic reminder of who she once wa
A Mate for my Lycan Alpha: His Mate, Her Nightmare Chapter 112: Shadows of Jealousy
Avery's POVI woke wrapped in Kane’s arms, his heartbeat a steady rhythm against my back. It was a feeling I hadn't known in years, warmth without fear, closeness without control. For a long time, I just lay there, eyes closed, letting the silence between us speak. Not the silence of estrangement, but something softer. Restful. Healing.He murmured something in his sleep, his fingers twitching slightly as if reaching for me even in his dreams. A smalll smile tugged at my lips, but I knew I couldn’t stay here all morning. I needed a moment. To breathe. To think. To remember who I was outside of him, tooI carefully slipped from his grasp, easing off the bed so as not to wake him. He shifted slightly but didn’t stir.My feet carried me to the my room. The moment I stepped inside, the air felt different, still scented faintly with lavender from an old satchel tucked into a drawer, and the cool morning light poured through the window like a familiar f
A Mate for my Lycan Alpha: His Mate, Her Nightmare Chapter 111: The Love I Never Lost
Kane's POVThe night was quiet, the kind of quiet that settled deep into your bones. The sky stretched above with stars scattered like forgotten wishes. I sat on the porch steps, elbows resting on my knees, fingers tangled together as I stared at the horizon. The cool wind carried the scent of lavender and pine, and for the first time in a long time, I let myself feel still.The door behind me creaked, soft and hesitant.I didn’t turned around.But I knew it was herAvery.Her presence was like a ripple,gentle, but impossible to ignore. She stepped closer, the wooden porch boards groaning beneath her weight until she lowered herself beside me. Her shoulder brushed mine. Light, barely there. But enough.Enough to remind me I wasn’t alone.We sat in silence, our breaths syncing with the rhythm of the night. I didn’t want to scare her off with words. She hadn’t been this close in weeks, this close. And I would’ve s
A Mate for my Lycan Alpha: His Mate, Her Nightmare Chapter 110: “Daddy Days”
Avery's POVI couldn’t look away from themFrom the moment Kane learned he was a father, something in him shifted. It wasn’t dramatic, there was no grand declaration or overwhelming display of emotion after that first, raw encounter. No, the change was quieter. Deeper. Like the slow turn of the earth beneath your feet, steady, inevitable.The Alpha I had known, ruthless, calculated, commanding, was gone. In his place stood a man with paint-streaked jeans, tangled hair, and a voice several notes higher than necessary while reading stories about dragons, moon bears, and magical wolves who saved the day.He’d never held a toddler before that day in the nursery, but now he carried our son with a confidence that didn’t come from experience, itt came from love.Kane took to fatherhood with a kind of wide eyed eagerness that almost made me laugh. Almost. Because sometimes it hurt to watch, like something in my chest didn’t quite know what to do with
A Mate for my Lycan Alpha: His Mate, Her Nightmare Chapter 109: My Blood, My Son
Kane's POV I wasn’t expecting her to reach for me that day Not tonight. Not after the way she’s kept her distance, like she’s been building invisible walls around herself just to survive being under the same roof as me. But then, in the silence of the corridor, she turned to me. Her hand found mine, not firm, not certain, but deliberate. I froze, afraid even a a breath would make her retreat She didn’t say a word. Just led me forward, past portraits on the walls. Her fingers trembled slightly, her pace cautious. I followed her, heart thudding like a war drum in my chest, unsure of what this meant, until she stopped in front of a door. Sky blue. Small. Innocent. The kind of door that had no place in the life I used to live. "I hand painted the door myself after we arrived" She said, then she hesitated for half a heartbeat, then pushed it open. My breath l
A Mate for my Lycan Alpha: His Mate, Her Nightmare Chapter 108: The Quiet Return
Avery's POVTime moves strangely in Kane’s packhouse. The days blend together, soft and slow, like fog creeping over familiar ground. Each morning, I wake in a room that used to feel like a prison. Now, it just feels.... quiet.Not safe. Not yet.But its not dangerous either.In the days that followed, I noticed something had changed. Not in Kane, he’s already change, hopefully, but in the air around us. The silence that once screamed now hums with something else. Something hesitant. Unspoken.I start to notice the little things.He sets out a second plate at every meal, never asking if I’ll join but always hoping I will. He adjusts the thermostat back to the exact warmth I always liked, the one that made me feel held without being touched. He doesn’t knock on my door. Doesn’t ask for talks. Doesn’t ask for anything, really. He just…. shows up.When I do come down to eat, he doesn’t stare or smile or try to fill the silence.
A Mate for my Lycan Alpha: His Mate, Her Nightmare Chapter 107: Breaking Walls
Kane's POVI find her in the garden again early in the morningHer figure framed by the soft sway of lavender that brushes against her dress. She always loved this place, said the scent reminded her of peace. Now, I wonder if it only reminds her of what I destroyed.Avery kneels beside the blossoms, her fingers brushing the petals like they’re more fragile than she feels. She hasn’t spoken to me more than a few words since she returned. She walks with purpose, keeps her distance, and when she looks at me, it’s like I’m a stranger standing in the ruins of the life she once tried to build.But I can’t keep letting her run. I won’t.“Don’t run from me anymore, Avery.” My voice is low, steady. No Alpha command. No anger. Just truth.She stiffens but doesn’t look up. Her silence wraps around her like armor, tight, defensive, and heavy. I step closer, not enough to crowd her, but enough to make her feel me there. I won’t let her face t
A Mate for my Lycan Alpha: His Mate, Her Nightmare Chapter 106: A Home That Hurts
Avery’s POVThe ceremony was silent, somber even. No grand cheers. No joy. Just the quiet rustle of the wind and the heavy breath of a pack unsure how to process what they’d witnessedKane stood beside me, barely able to stay upright. His arm was bandaged, his face bruised and bloodied. Yet there was a gleam in his eye, a victorious gleam. One that reminded me of the old Kane. The ruthless one. The conqueror who always took what he wanted no matter what.He reached for me, his fingers brushing my arm. “You’re mine again,” he whispered, not as a question, but as a declaration.And I nodded.What else could I do?The fight had been issued. The outcome determined. The pack had no more words to say.I was his again, claimed by blood, by dominance, by the archaic laws we still obeyed.But as his hand wrapped around mine, something inside me twisted. It should’ve been relief. It should’ve been … something. A reunion.
