The hideous howls echoed through the woods for the rest of the evening. I stayed indoors as the blood moon appeared on the pitch-black sky. The woods were closeby to my apartment. I kept pretending not to notice the wolves nearby and the night overall. I didn't want a mate. And I was sure of that but my wolf yearned for a touch - a touch that belonged to our mate.

I stood by my kitchen and watched the water boil. My phone started to ring and I picked it up.

"Hey, how are you?" Sarah asked. "Are you at work?"

"Nope and I'm good. What about you?"

"I'm good too. Do you have any plans for tonight? I feel like going clubbing but only if you're up for it!" she asked.

"Not tonight, hun. I can't leave my room,"

"Why?"

“It’s the blood moon.,remember!"

"Oh," She trailed off, sounding surprised. "I almost forgot. So, you haven't gone out the whole day?"

"No, I did go out in the morning but came back quickly. I have no intention of stepping out of my room,"

Cindy laughed, "But you might just find your mate,"

"I don't want him," I stated.

"Do you even know who he is?" she asked.

"I don't care. I have nothing to do with males wolves,"

"Alright, don't get your mind on a twist! Would you like me to come over?We can have some fun together and your night will pass by quickly." She suggested. It wasn't a bad idea.

"Sounds great But I have some cleaning to do I glanced at my room which looked like a mess. "How about by 10"

perfect! I will bring my pajamas,"

"I will see you then,"

After closing the call, I placed my phone aside and drank my coffee while sitting on the balcony. The howls continued to echo through the dark woods. My wolf instincts clawed from the inside. She wanted to go outside and hunt for my male but I couldn't allow that. It took me so long to control my desires and feelings. As a female wolf, my sexual desires were at the peak and I was in heat every now and then.

Any male, wolf or not, would be in between my legs if I hadn't controlled my desires. I was so difficult to work on

The coffee gave me a morning rush. The weather was calm with occasional strong breezes. I stepped out from the balcony and back into my room. There was a lot of cleaning to do before Cindy could come.

I had several hours in my hand but instead of cleaning, I decided to walk out of my apartment and into my Jeep.

Fuck. I groaned as the woods came in front of me.

What was I doing? This was totally not my idea on how to spend my night. My bare feet were pressed against the solid roads as I began undressing in the middle of nowhere. It was better to leave my clothes than to rip them off since I was going to shift anyway. A chilling breeze gripped my bare body as the last piece of clothing came off me.

I folded my clothes and placed them inside my Jeep.

After getting naked, I grabbed the package of herbs that were delivered to me a few months ago. These herbs came directly from Atlanta they were made by a witch and they were used to hide a scent of a werewolf. I never found the urge to use them until now. They were quite expensive to get. I piled up the herbs in a small circle and chugged it down with warm water.

If there was any chance that my mate was inside the woods with the other wolves, then he couldn't know who I was. At the end of the day, it would be my decision if I wanted to be with my mate or not. He couldn't decide my fate

-only I could.

My bones elongated and snapped as I shifted into a werewolf. Canines purged out of my mouth and hair covered my feminine body. My skin ruptured, causing extreme pain. The transformation was always dangerous and painful but I was used to it all.

My heart thundered against my chest as I fell on the ground with a thud. The transformation was completed. With a snap, I sprinted into the dark woods again, leaving my things behind in my Jeep. It was on the other end of the woods, where humans resided so other wolves could never figure out who the Jeep belonged to.

Dirt covered my body as I continued to slash through the air. It was just a few minutes till I merged within the wolves.

The scent of a lone wolf was vile and unpleasant compared to other wolves who belonged to a pack. The blood oath was the initial reason why other wolves smelled alluring and pleasant compared to me. I took a blood oath when I was eight but soon after that, I broke the oath and ran away from my pack which turned me into a rogue but I preferred calling myself a lone wolf.

The howls grew louder as I ran. The mountains appeared in front of me and I stopped on my tracks. I had heard about the mountains that kissed the sky but I wasn't ever able to see them due to the danger around me.

Whenever I went on a run, someone or the other tried to chase me and I never had enough time on my hands to see the woods entirely.

Tonight it felt different.

Very different.

A black creature flashed in front of my eyes and I was thrown on the ground with a thud. A musky scent reached up to my nostrils as my eyes fluttered open.

Above me, I saw my mate, in his wolf form. His deep brown eyes sniped into mine and I shivered. This is not good.

  • Alpha’s Obsession    Chapter 128

    Peace didn’t arrive with a roar. It came quietly—like the slow steady healing of a scar—until one day the pack woke up and realized the fear that once clung to their bones had loosened its grip and vanished. The once-shattered stronghold of the pack now breathed with life again. Homes rebuilt with fresh timber. Fields replanted. Wolves who once slept lightly with one ear open now laughed without looking over their shoulders. Clara watched it all unfold from the balcony of the Alpha residence—a home that used to feel too large, too cold. Now, sunlight poured in through windows and the scent of cooked meals filled its halls. The house was filled with giggles, tiny footsteps, miniature chaos. Her daughter—Lyra—ran through the garden below, chasing a butterfly that glowed like moonlight condensed into wings. She squealed as it evaded her, then suddenly, the butterfly paused mid-air… almost like the air itself listened to the child’s delight. Magic. Her magic. Awakening quietly, bea

    It started small. A flicker of breath against the air. A pulse that did not belong to ordinary blood. The first time Clara noticed it again was during a quiet afternoon nap. Her daughter lay in the cradle, small fingers twitching as if she was dreaming of running through fields she hadn’t yet seen. Clara sat beside her, humming a lullaby the way her mother once had. Then the room changed. The curtains fluttered… though the windows were closed. The shadows stretched… though the light was still. The air shimmered… like the moonlight was pouring itself inside the walls. Clara’s humming faded as her eyes widened. Her daughter’s eyes opened—bright as polished silver. Too bright. For a heartbeat, the baby stared up at Clara with a clarity that didn’t belong to a newborn. Like she was seeing her… truly seeing her. Then, just as suddenly, the silver dimmed back into soft gray-blue. The shimmer faded. The air stilled. The baby yawned. Clara’s heart pounded. She leaned closer an

    The world had gone quiet again, but not in the way it once did after war. This quiet was softer. Livelier. Full of heartbeats and newborn laughter. The packhouse, once echoing with orders and battle cries, now smelled like milk, smoke from the rebuilt kitchens, and blooming moonflowers. Wolves passed through the corridors carrying planks, fabrics, and baskets instead of weapons. The sound of hammers had replaced growls. The sound of life returning. Inside the Alpha’s home, Clara sat by the open window, her daughter nestled against her chest. The child was impossibly small, wrapped in white cloth, sleeping to the rhythm of her mother’s heartbeat. Martin watched from the doorway, his usually commanding frame leaning against the wood, quieter now—almost reverent. “She looks like you when you’re pretending to be mad at me,” he said softly. Clara smiled without looking up. “Then you should be afraid already.” He chuckled and crossed the room, crouching beside her chair. His hand brus

    The days began to stretch longer. Peace had a strange rhythm — slower, quieter, but never empty. For Clara, it took time to get used to. No midnight raids. No whispers of enemies in the woods. Just sunlight filtering through the trees, the scent of warm bread, and the small sound of Lyra’s laughter echoing through the den. At first, she thought she’d go mad with the stillness. Then she started to breathe again. Martin had changed too. He no longer rose before dawn to inspect the borders; he woke beside her now — sometimes with his face buried against her neck, his breath steady, his arm wrapped possessively around her waist. He still carried the weight of leadership in every movement, but the sharpness that once defined him had softened. One morning, Clara found him outside, shirt sleeves rolled up, repairing a section of the fence that had long since been forgotten. “You could’ve asked for help,” she said, leaning against the doorway, a teasing smile on her lips. “I did,”

    The council house was rebuilt first — not because it was grand, but because it stood at the heart of the territory. Once, it had been the Alpha’s hall — a place of commands and judgments. Now, its doors were thrown open from dawn till dusk. Wolves came not to kneel, but to speak. Martin had insisted on that. “We can’t rule the way we used to,” he’d said one morning, his voice steady as he looked out over the clearing. “A kingdom built on fear doesn’t survive peace.” So, on the third week after the Blood Moon, the first assembly was held. The benches were rough, the roof unfinished, and the scent of wet pine still lingered in the air. But the pack filled the space — warriors, hunters, healers, elders, even the children who peeked from doorways with wide eyes. Clara sat near the front, Lyra nestled in her arms, while Isreal leaned against a pillar with his usual half-smirk, pretending not to care but listening closely. Martin stood at the center. He wore no crown, no armor — only

  • Alpha’s Obsession    Chapter 123

    The rain stopped two days after the Blood Moon, as if the skies themselves had decided to rest. By then, the pack house no longer smelled like smoke and iron, but of earth and new timber. Wolves worked shoulder to shoulder, patching walls, clearing debris, and replanting the fields that had been trampled by war. The rhythm of rebuilding became its own kind of music — hammers thudding, laughter rising, paws shifting across wet soil. From the porch, Clara watched them with a calm heart. Her recovery had been slow but steady. The healers insisted she rest, yet she often found herself drifting outside just to see everyone — to remind herself that the world was still moving, that it hadn’t stopped in fire and loss. Lyra lay sleeping in the crook of her arm, bundled in pale cloth that smelled faintly of wild mint and moonflower. The faint pulse of her tiny heartbeat was enough to anchor Clara to the present. “Are you supposed to be out here?” She turned at the sound of Isreal’s voice.
