Lyra's POV

It was as if time had stopped; the world around me was frozen in place, and I was the only one still able to move. This wasn't like me—I'm not shy or timid; I was a badass who faced danger and death with a grin. But now, I was walking up to a smiling Lucian, who I knew was ready to wipe the floor with my blood.

My feet hit the solid wood of the gymnasium floor. I took in a breath, flexed my back, knowing there was no turning back now. I had to face the blows coming my way, whether I

  • Assassin of Alpha Academy   Amber’s Shock

    Amber’s POVThe penthouse had started to feel like a prison.A beautiful prison, admittedly. Most wolves in Star Pack would have considered staying here an honor. The rooms were larger than some family homes. The windows overlooked half the territory. Fresh flowers appeared every morning, meals arrived before I could ask for them, and servants seemed determined to make sure I never lacked for anything.Except freedom.That part seemed negotiable.I sat curled into one corner of the couch with a book resting open in my lap, staring at the same page I had been pretending to read for nearly an hour. Every few minutes my eyes drifted toward the windows overlooking the territory below.Somewhere out there were answers nobody would give me.Every day that passed without news felt heavier than the one before.The academy was gone. Lucian was dead. Richard was tightening his grip on the pack. And Lyra…I squeezed my eyes shut.No.I refused to think like that.Lyra was alive.She had to be.T

  • Assassin of Alpha Academy   The Cabin

    Lyra’s POVThe cabin was small, but it was dry and hidden.At that point, dry and hidden felt dangerously close to luxury.There was a narrow kitchen, a worn table, a hearth full of old ash, a cot near the wall, and a second room barely big enough to hold another mattress. Someone had already left supplies inside. Folded clothes sat on the table in rough stacks. Towels. Soap. A comb. Tooth powder. A chipped basin. A few blankets. A lantern with enough oil to burn through the night.Clean clothes.Soap.A real roof.I stared at it all like an idiot.After four days in the wilderness, those little things felt so painfully normal that I didn’t know what to do with them. My throat tightened in a way that made me angry because it was absurd. I could stand in front of armed wolves without crying, but apparently soap was where I lost my mind.Mara brushed past me and grabbed a towel from the stack. She didn’t look at me, but her voice softened just enough for only me to hear.“Don’t you dare

  • Assassin of Alpha Academy   Star Pack and Uneasy Alliances

    Lyra’s POV“Well,” the young man said coldly, his bow still trained on us, “this is either the stupidest invasion I’ve ever seen, or somebody better start explaining why two Alpha heirs are carrying a dying human across my border.”The woods stayed silent after that, except for Rowan’s breathing.That was the sound I couldn’t stop hearing. Not the creak of bows drawn tight around us. Not the shift of boots in the pine needles. Not the low growl rumbling from one of the Star Pack wolves half-hidden behind a tree.Rowan.Each breath scraped out of him like his body had to drag it up from somewhere too deep. Kael held him carefully, but there was no making Rowan look anything other than broken. His head rested against Kael’s shoulder, his skin pale beneath the dirt and fever, one hand hanging limp near Kael’s arm. Mara stood close enough to touch him, her backpack still slung over one shoulder, her fingers flexing like she wanted to check his pulse again but knew one wrong move might mak

  • Assassin of Alpha Academy   Fever at the Border

    Lyra’s POV Four days had gone by with Mara, Rowan, Cassian, and Kael following me through the wilderness toward Star Pack, all of us chasing the same fragile hope. Amber. That name had become the only thing keeping me moving. We were dirty, injured, hungry, and I was pretty sure we were all partially dehydrated at this point. My mouth felt like sand, my muscles ached with every step, and every breath tasted like pine, dirt, and exhaustion. I was also pretty sure I heard Kael and Cassian grumbling more than once that if we were all wolves, this would’ve gone by much quicker. Sadly, I agreed with them. Not that I would ever admit it out loud. We followed the river as much as we could, using the water to cover our tracks whenever the ground allowed it. It slowed us down, but it also kept us just one step ahead of literally everyone tracking us. Aurelia’s soldiers. Wolves loyal to the Snow Pack. Whoever else had decided we were worth hunting through half the damn territory.

  • Assassin of Alpha Academy   He will Know That I am The Luna!

    Amber’s POVWe both moved without looking rushed. Miri returned to the towels. I sat at the vanity and lifted my hair away from the mark, exposing it in the mirror just as Richard walked in. He wore black, because of course he did. Mourning suited men who liked people watching them suffer. His dark hair was tied back, his jaw clean-shaven, his Star Pack ring gleaming on his hand. He looked powerful. He looked calm. He looked like a man who had never once considered the possibility that the woman he locked away might be thinking. “Amber,” he said. His voice made my stomach turn. I lowered my eyes because survival was sometimes uglier than defiance. “Alpha.” His gaze went straight to the mark on my neck. Satisfaction softened his mouth. “You look better.” “I rested.” “You needed it.” I almost told h

  • Assassin of Alpha Academy   I need information

    Amber’s POVBeta Flynn was new. Too new for most of the council to trust and too young for the old wolves to respect without choking on it first. He had dark blond hair, quiet eyes, and the kind of controlled danger that made even stronger men watch their mouths around him. He had been raised along the borders and promoted faster than anyone expected after the last Beta died in the chaos around Lucian’s death. Richard had wanted a useful Beta. He had gotten Flynn instead. Flynn was idealistic enough to believe Star Pack could still be saved and dangerous enough to make men regret laughing at him for it. Most importantly, Flynn hated Richard. Everyone with eyes knew it. “Beta Flynn has been careful,” Miri said. “He obeys in public, but he’s been moving warriors off Richard’s private patrols and replacing them with border-trained wolves. Quietly. He also spoke with Gamma James last night.” My heart beat harder. “What did they say?” “I don’t know. They were in the lower armory.

  • Assassin of Alpha Academy   Secrets

    Kael’s POV The door to my apartment slammed hard enough to rattle the walls, the sound echoing throughout the suite. “Crazy,” I muttered, dragging a hand through my hair. The Omega—Maria, maybe? Mia? Something with an M—hadn’t taken rejection well. All I knew for sure was that she worked in t

  • Assassin of Alpha Academy   Monday came too fast

    Lyra’s POV The weekend had gone by in a blur. Amber became a fast friend of Rowan and me, leaving any little doubt about her intentions towards us as a werewolf out the window. Girls' night had been a blast, and we'd both fallen asleep on top of spilled junk food that had somehow managed to get st

  • Assassin of Alpha Academy   Girl’s Night

    Lyra’s POV I never thought, coming here, I'd find a friend, much less enjoy any part of this. But here I was arm in arm with Amber, walking down the sidewalk towards my suite with Rowan’s grumpy ass trudging behind. Towards the end of dinner, after much gossip and planning regarding day passes, s

  • Assassin of Alpha Academy   The return of the professor

    Alpha Leon’s POV He's been gone on a recon mission for almost two years now. I've had a substitute teacher covering his Tactics class, but he was sub-par to Stefan’s skills. I've known him a long time, and I was glad to see him back, especially as tensions were rising again between our kind and t
