Chapter 46: Faulty Lines Beneath the Surface

Penulis: Rodlad
last update Tanggal publikasi: 2026-04-26 21:34:15

POV: Liora

The north wing did not erupt into violence after Kael’s final word.

That would have been easier to handle.

Instead, the tension shifted into something far more dangerous, contained, deliberate, and unresolved. Wolves who had taken sides without openly declaring it remained exactly where they were, their loyalty no longer as clear-cut as it had been just days ago. No one challenged Kael again, but no one pretended the confrontation had settled anything either.

Bram stepped back first.

  • Alpha’s Deceptive Mate   Chapter 117: The Storm Beyond the Ridge

    POV: LioraThe tremor that rolled beneath Valeria refused to leave my mind.Even after the battle ended and the Hunters vanished into the darkness, the memory lingered inside every warrior gathered within the ancient city. Wolves who had survived countless battles stood quietly around campfires, their expressions grim as they replayed the same terrifying realization.Something had happened at the Second Seal.Something powerful enough to shake mountains.Something capable of drawing fear from ancient rulers who had witnessed the fall of kingdoms.The eastern horizon had begun to brighten by the time our forces finished preparing for departure. Dawn painted the sky in shades of gold and silver, yet the beauty of the morning failed to ease the tension hanging over the camp.Every moment felt precious now and each delay carried risk.Lucien stood beside the ancient map hidden within Valeria's ruined archway while officers gathered around him. Kael, Vera, Mara, Darius, Elyria, and several

  • Alpha’s Deceptive Mate   Chapter 116: The hunt through Valeria

    POV: KaelA sharp pulse tore through the mate bond.The sensation struck with enough force to pull me upright from the council fire where Lucien had been explaining ancient routes leading toward the Black Ridge. One moment I had been listening to strategies and supply concerns. The next, every instinct inside me locked onto a single realization.Liora was in danger.The reaction came instantly.My wolf surged beneath my skin with violent urgency.Around the fire, several wolves immediately noticed the change.Vera stopped speaking.Thomas lowered the cup in his hand.Lucien's eyes narrowed."What happened?" he asked.I was already moving."Liora."That single word explained everything.The bond between us carried more than emotions now. Since the awakening beneath Nightbane, our connection had deepened into something neither of us fully understood. Fear, pain, danger, and powerful emotions flowed across the link whether we welcomed them or not.At that moment, what I felt from her was

  • Alpha’s Deceptive Mate   Chapter 115: The Hunter in the Shadows

    POV: LioraSleep never came after the voice spoke.The warning echoed through my thoughts long after the camp settled into uneasy silence. Every time I closed my eyes, I heard those words again.The guardian is falling.The message carried a weight that felt impossible to ignore. Ancient magic rarely wasted energy on meaningless visions. Every encounter with the Moonstone had proven that much. Whenever the old powers reached across time and distance, they did so for a reason.Somewhere beyond the Black Ridge, a battle was unfolding.And someone was losing.Moonlight bathed the ruins of Valeria in silver as I walked alone through the abandoned streets. Ancient buildings cast long shadows across broken stone roads, creating strange shapes that seemed to move whenever the wind stirred the trees. The city possessed a haunting beauty, as though history still lingered within its crumbling walls.A faint sound reached my ears.Footsteps, Light, careful and deliberate.My hand immediately set

  • Alpha’s Deceptive Mate   Chapter 114: The city under the roots

    POV: KaelThe discovery beneath the ancient archway changed everything.Until that moment, our journey had felt like a race against shadows and legends, guided by fragments of prophecy and half-buried truths. The glowing map hidden inside the ruins of Valeria gave shape to the threat we faced. For the first time, we possessed proof that the Shadow Court was actively moving toward the Second Seal.Three days.That distance felt dangerously small.A determined army could cover such ground quickly.A powerful enemy driven by ancient purpose could move even faster.The camp settled uneasily as evening descended across the ruined city. Fires burned between broken columns while warriors sharpened weapons, checked supplies, and prepared for an early departure. Conversations remained quieter than usual. Every wolf understood the importance of what lay ahead.The forest surrounding Valeria seemed strangely alive after sunset.Silver moonlight filtered through enormous branches overhead, illumi

  • Alpha’s Deceptive Mate   Chapter 113: The Forest of Forgotten Kings

    POV: LioraBy the third day of travel, the familiar lands surrounding Nightbane had disappeared completely.The towering mountains that once guarded Kael's territory now stood far behind us, fading into the horizon like distant memories. Ahead stretched a wilderness untouched by modern packs, a vast expanse of ancient forests and rolling hills where silence carried an unsettling weight. Massive trees rose toward the heavens, their trunks wider than entire cottages, their branches weaving together high above to form a living ceiling that blocked much of the sunlight.Every wolf in the expedition felt it.The forest was watching.The sensation lingered constantly at the edge of my awareness. It wasn't fear. It wasn't dangerous in the ordinary sense. The land itself seemed awake, as though thousands of years of history had seeped into the roots beneath our feet.Even the horses appeared uneasy.Their ears twitched frequently, and several scouts reported hearing distant sounds that vanish

  • Alpha’s Deceptive Mate   Chapter 112: The Departure Under Silver Dawn

    POV: KaelThe fortress rarely slept.Nightbane had survived generations of war because its warriors understood a simple truth: danger never waited for convenience. Guards rotated through the walls at every hour, patrols crossed the mountain passes long after midnight, and sentries watched the forests below through storms, winter blizzards, and blood-soaked battles.Yet as dawn approached, the fortress felt different.A strange tension lingered beneath every conversation.Every wolf knew something significant had changed.Word traveled quickly inside a pack.By sunrise, rumors had already spread through every corridor and training yard. Some spoke of the ancient king and queen awakened beneath the mountain. Others whispered about the Moonstone and the Five Seals. A few claimed the end of the world had finally arrived.For once, the rumors were not entirely wrong.I stood on the eastern battlements overlooking the valley below. Thin layers of mist drifted between the pine trees, turning

  • Alpha’s Deceptive Mate   The Alpha's Judgment

    Chapter 3POV: LioraThey dragged me through corridors that smelled of pine and smoke and power. My feet scraped against polished wood floors as Marcus and another warrior hauled me deeper into the building. Every wolf we passed stopped to stare, their eyes tracking me like I was prey.Maybe I was.

  • Alpha’s Deceptive Mate   Chapter 111: The Path to the Second Seal

    POV: LioraThe silence that followed Darius's disappearance felt heavier than any battle I had ever survived.His final words continued echoing through my mind long after the vision vanished from the Heart Chamber. Every memory I possessed of my brother collided with the image I had just witnessed.

    Chapter 2POV: LioraThe golden eyes blinked once, twice, then vanished into the darkness. I didn't wait to see what they belonged to. Adrenaline overrode the pain screaming through my shoulder. I scrambled to my feet, my hand clamped over the arrow shaft, and ran. Behind me, I heard snarling, the

  • Alpha’s Deceptive Mate   The Betrayal Under the Blood Moon

    Chapter 1POV: LioraThe scream tore from my throat before I could stop it. Alpha Declan lay sprawled across the wooden floor of the meeting hall, his silver hair matted with blood. His eyes stared at nothing, wide and empty, while crimson pooled beneath him like a grotesque shadow. The smell hit m
