LOGINTYLA’S POV
I squinted my eyes open as a bright reflection flashed in. “She is finally awake.” A voice said. “Am I dead??” I asked as I looked around in confusion, not being able to recognize where I was. “No dear, you aren’t dead.” “Then where am I and who are you??” I asked. “You are currently at the Pack Clinic and you have been unconscious for a few days now.” “Pack Clinic??? Since when did the pack Clinic change??” I asked as I looked around in confusion. I knew our Pack Clinic so well that if I was asked to describe it from a deep slumber, I could but this one was looking completely different. “Oh dear, you aren’t in your previous pack anymore.” The lady said. “What??? How?? I don’t understand what you mean ma’am….Which pack am I in then???” “You are in the Tiger Wood blood pack.” she said. I suddenly burst into laughter as I assumed she must be trying to play pranks on me. How could I be at the pack of the one who rejected me as his mate and how could I also have gotten here. “Why are you laughing dear??? Did I say something funny?? She asked in confusion. “Yes you did ma’am…please tell me where I am so I can go back home to my pack.” I said. “I am serious dear, you really are in the Tiger wood blood pack.” “What??!!! How?? I don’t understand.” “The Alpha brought you in here unconscious and I assumed he brought you from your pack and you have been here for almost a week now.” “No…no….no…noooooo….I want to go back…I want to go back to my pack please….please just let me go back before he realizes I am awake.” “Who dear??” “Alpha Thane.” I said as tears welled up in my eyes. “I am sorry dear, but we can’t let you leave and also the Alpha has been informed of your consciousness.” “Noooo….I have to leave….I have to leave now.” I said as I started removing the syringes on my body and as I stood up from the bed, my head suddenly started spinning. “Please lay down back on the bed as you aren’t fully recovered dear….the absence of your wolf is slowing down your recovery.” “I don't care!!! I just want to leave here and don’t stop me.” I said as I held my head and staggered away. “Please come back!!! The Alpha will be mad at me!!!” she yelled but I ignored and walked away from the clinic. The pack was so big that I got confused on which direction to go and as I looked on, I saw a pathway ahead and so I continued my journey. My head spinned more and I was dehydrated and needed water but leaving the pack was more important than anything I felt or needed at that moment. “Keep going Tyla, just keep going…you can do this.” I said to myself. After walking for a while, I finally came across a wood and something inside of me told me that the woods would lead me out of the pack and so I entered. Due to how I aggressively yanked out the syringes from my hand, it kept on bleeding non stop but I wasn’t focused on that. Suddenly, I heard some rustling noises as I stood and looked around in fear. “Who is there??” I asked. Everywhere became silent again as the rustling noises stopped and so I continued walking deeper into the woods. The same rustling noise started again and it was more intense this time around. Fear gripped me as I stopped in my tracks and looked around again. In a flash second, I found myself on the ground as a strong force hit me. As soon as I regained myself, I looked on and saw a werewolf boring its eyes into mine and as I looked on properly, it didn’t look like just any werewolf. This particular one had intense yellowish piercing eyes, very sharp pointed teeth, had some scars on its body and a very strong feral odor and the only thing that could come to mind was that it was a rogue. It stalked towards me like a predator as I crawled backwards in fear while looking around to see if I could find anything to hold on to as defense. I finally found something that looked like an Iron rod and I picked it up and foolishly threw it at the rogue but it dodged it and snarled at me. Not only did I miss the opportunity of saving myself, I also made the rogue very angry and in a split second, it bit my leg making me scream in pain and agony. It retracted its teeth as it moved back and continued snarling at me. I didn’t know much about rogues but from the little I knew, I was well aware that their bites can be poisonous as it causes paralysis, fever and eventually death. “Mom, Dad, this is it…I am finally coming to join you over there with the moon goddess.” I said as I could feel one part of me getting paralyzed. In a few seconds, I laid still on the ground motionless as I couldn’t move any part of my body and the rogue found it as the perfect opportunity to complete it’s attack. Even if I wanted to call for help at that moment, it was totally impossible as I was completely paralyzed. As the rogue drew Closer to me, I closed my eyes and was ready to welcome whatever came and suddenly I heard a loud growl from behind me. Due to the fact that I couldn’t move any part of my body, it was impossible to see what was behind me. A few seconds later, a wolf larger than the rogue walked in front of me and in a second, it severed the head of the rogue and ripped it’s heart out. The whole event was so shocking and scary to me that I instantly passed out cold but before I did, I heard a voice saying I was his.THANE'S POVI had seen wolves shift hundreds of times in my life.It was nothing new to me.As Alpha, I had watched warriors transform before battles, watched pups experience their first shifts, and even witnessed brutal shifts fueled by rage.But nothing…absolutely nothing prepared me for what I was seeing now.Tyla,my mate, the woman I once rejected just shifted.My breath caught in my throat.“Moon Goddess…” Rico whispered beside me.I was too shocked to even ask how Rico got to where I was.I couldn't speak and I couldn’t move.This shift was different.Standing before us was the largest wolf I had ever seen in my life.Silver fur shimmered under the moonlight like liquid metal. Her body was powerful, sleek, and intimidating in a way that made even seasoned warriors instinctively step back.But it was her eyes that froze the blood in my veins.They glowed like molten silver.Wild, fierce and Untamed.I stared at her in complete shock.“That… that can’t be possible,” I muttered.T
THANE'S POV I was already angry before Rico opened his mouth.But when he did, it only made it worse.“She was almost Kyron’s mate!” I roared, pacing the length of my room like a trapped animal. My hands were trembling, my wolf restless under my skin. “Do you even understand what that means, Rico? I spent years looking for her. Years! And she was about to bind herself to him?”Rico stood by the window, arms folded across his chest. He didn’t look afraid of me…he rarely did.“She didn’t bind herself to him,” he said calmly. “It was discussed…that’s different.”“Different?” I snapped. “It’s the same thing! She had no right!”Rico’s eyes hardened. “No right? Thane… you rejected her.” He said as I stopped pacing.The words hit like a slap.“I had my reasons,” I muttered.“You sent her into exile,” Rico continued, his voice firm now. “You pushed her away.”My jaw tightened.“That was..”“That was your choice,” he cut in sharply. “Not hers.”I felt my anger spike higher. “I had no
TYLA’S POVI woke up with a sharp gasp with my chest rising and falling like I had been drowning and only just found air.The room was dim, lit only by the soft glow of moonlight filtering through the curtains. My head throbbed painfully, and my heart felt heavy, like something was sitting on it, crushing every breath I took.For a moment, I didn’t know where I was.Then the scent hit me…Kyron.I turned my head slowly and saw him sitting beside the bed, his large frame tense, his eyes fixed on my face like he had been watching me the entire time. Relief flickered across his face the moment our eyes met.“You’re awake,” he said quietly.My throat felt dry. “How long…?” I tried to ask, but my voice came out hoarse.“Not long,” Kyron replied. “You suddenly collapsed and the healer said you’d wake soon.”I swallowed and tried to sit up, but dizziness washed over me instantly. Kyron moved fast, placing a firm hand on my shoulder to steady me.“Easy,” he said. “Don’t rush.”I closed
TYLA’S POVThe night shattered…that was the only way to describe it.And him, Thane…standing at the edge of the ceremonial grounds like a curse that had learned how to walk.“Tyla,” he called again, his voice ripping through me. “Come here.”My body suddenly reacted before my mind did as I stepped back but not towards him.The crowd murmured and confusion rippled outward, but Thane’s eyes stayed locked on me, burning with something that made my skin crawl.“I don’t know you.” I bit out.The words tasted strange on my tongue like something foreign, unreal but I forced them out anyway.“I don’t know who you are.”Silence fell so fast it felt violent.Thane blinked repeatedly as he gazed at me strangely.“What?” he asked, his voice lowering. “Tyla… what are you saying?”Kyron moved instantly, stepping in front of me with his broad back like a wall of heat and authority.“She said she doesn’t know you,” Kyron said coldly. “Now leave.”Thane’s gaze snapped to Kyron, with so much fury.“
TYLA'S POV The pack house transformed overnight.Where once the halls had felt cold and watchful, now they buzzed with forced excitement, frantic movement, and a tension so thick it pressed against my skin.Servants hurried past me with bolts of white fabric and silver-threaded cloaks. Warriors stood at attention longer than usual even though the air smelled,different burning sage, crushed moonflowers, and anxiety.Preparations for the Luna ceremony had begun.And I was at the center of it.I stood before the tall mirror in my room while two attendants hovered behind me, whispering in hushed tones as they brushed my hair. My reflection stared back at me, unfamiliar. My face looked calm, but my eyes betrayed me…they were wide, uncertain, shadowed by thoughts I couldn’t silence.Was I really doing this?Every stroke of the brush felt like another step toward something I couldn’t undo.My wolf paced restlessly inside me, claws scraping against my ribs.This feels wrong… and right… an
THANE'S POV The elders’ voices still echoed in my skull long after I left that meeting.“Choose another mate.”“You must give the pack stability.”“Tyla is gone..accept it.”Gone.The word sliced through me like a fresh wound every time.My wolf lay silent in the back of my mind broken, withdrawn, refusing to speak. He had nothing to offer…no opinion and no guidance because as far as he was concerned… our mate no longer existed.For him, for both of us, Tyla was dead or missing but at this point, dead had the upper hand.And you cannot replace the dead.Yet the pack needed a Luna and I, Alpha or not, was drowning.I found myself standing outside my mother’s door without even remembering the walk. I pushed it open gently.She was seated near the fire, spinning wool with calm, steady hands. The flames cast a soft glow on her tired face.“Mother,” I murmured.She looked up with eyes far too perceptive.“Thane.”I sat at her feet like I did when I was younger, when problems seemed eas
TYLA'S POV“Come with me.” Thane's Mother said as she walked away.I followed behind her without any questions.We walked out of the pack house to an adjourning house which was equally as beautiful as the pack house.I had no idea there was another part of the pack house and that it was so close to
TYLA'S POV“Let's just leave it and head back to the pack house Tyla…it's dangerous here anyway.”Lilian said.“Lilian, are you sure you are okay???” I asked.“I am fine or I will be fine.” She said.I could see the sadness in her eyes and it was the same one I had when I was greatly disappointed by
TYLA'S POV“Lilian??” I whispered softly in shock.I had a whole lot of questions on my mind at that moment but I decided to keep mute and observe what happened next.Lilian walked over to where Thane and I stood.“Greetings Alpha.” she said as she bowed her head in courtesy.I looked at her in con
TYLA'S POVI woke up with a shock with my body aching and my mind foggy.As I shifted, I realized something was off. My clothes were gone, replaced by a thin blanket draped over me as my cheeks burned with embarrassment when the memories came flooding back.The heat, the desire and especially Than
