The Seer's POV

The hunters were loud tonight. They always were after their leader spoke of conquest. They sharpened their blades with too much force, laughed too hard at their crude jokes, and raised their mugs in a toast to a victory they had not yet earned.

Wolves lingered at the edges of the fire, listening with suspicion with their tails low and eyes darting to me when they thought I was not looking.

Fools. All of them.

I sat away from both camps with my fire pale silver instead of orange and wove threads through the smoke. My fingers moved with quiet precision as I tugged at invisible strands. With each pull, the girl stirred in her sleep. Her dreams were open ground, fertile soil for the poison I fed her.

Aisla flinched in her cot miles away. I felt it ripple through the threads like a shiver. My lips curved.

Do you see them, child? Do you see your wolves bleed?

Images bloomed in her mind.

  • BOUND BY THE ALPHA TRIPLETS   THE BARGAIN

    Head Hunter's POVThe firelight painted the scars across my men's faces and coloured the shadows sinking deep into the hollows of their eyes. We sat in the clearing at the edge of Bloodfang territory, the stench of wolf-scent heavy on the wind. Wolves. Even now, the word left a sour taste in my mouth."You've tied us to beasts," Garran spat, his hand never leaving the dagger at his belt. His face was twisted and half-burned from a raid years ago. "You expect us to fight alongside them? I'll soon slit one's throat while he sleeps."Murmurs rose in agreement. Hunters were not wolves. We were not meant to share fire or ground. And yet, here we were.I raised a hand and the camp fell silent. My voice cut through the smoke like steel. "We did not come to bow. We came to claim."One of the younger hunters leaned forward with gleaming eyes. "But you promised them, didn't you? You promised those dogs that if they gave us the Moonblood, we'd leave their lands. Pull back and find another place

  • BOUND BY THE ALPHA TRIPLETS   THE STONE AND THE FLAME

    Mora's POVThe girl shook like a reed in the wind when I found her, yet I could see the fire in her skin. Her breath came in ragged bursts, but the bond thrummed steady in her chest. Three wolves tied to her as surely as veins tied to a heart.I guided her back to the grove. She didn't resist but leaned on me as though her bones had melted. When we reached the stones, I lowered her onto the earth and lit the circle with a snap of my fingers. The flames came alive in a pale glow, and the shadows bent away.Her eyes glimmered at me. "It doesn't stop, Mora. Even now, I hear her.""The Seer," I said flatly.She nodded. "She whispers. She shows me things. My mates are dying. The pack is burning. I wake, and I'm already bleeding."I poured water into a bowl and set it before her. "Drink it. Slowly."She lifted the bowl with trembling hands. The water left trails down her chin, and she wiped them away with the back of her hand."You think it is weakness," I said, "to bleed, to hear voices, t

  • BOUND BY THE ALPHA TRIPLETS   VEINS OF FIRE

    Aisla's POVThe night after the battle remained clear in my head. It was filled with smoke, blood, and the stunned faces of wolves who once saw me as a servant. But in that moment, I was something else entirely. Something they could not name without trembling.And now here I was, back in the training yard.The air was filled with the clang of steel and the thud of bodies against the ground. The warriors sparred in pairs and flashed their claws as their muscles strained. I stood among them with tense shoulders, pretending I belonged."Again," barked the drill master. His eyes darted toward me sceptically before he snapped his attention back to the line of soldiers. "Form up. Defensive stance."I shifted my weight and mimicked the others. My training with Mora had been different, and I had forgotten some steps and movements I learnt before I went into hiding after Thorne tried to kill me. My arms ached from hours of training, but I couldn't stop. I wouldn't stop. If I faltered, they w

  • BOUND BY THE ALPHA TRIPLETS   THREADS OF POISON

    (The Seer's POV)The fire burned in the centre of the camp, and the smoke curled toward the black sky. Around me, wolves shifted restlessly in their skins… some padded close to the heat in their fur while others crouched in half-form with claws still stained by old battles. The hunters sat separately and sharpened their swords as they whispered their prayers to whatever gods kept demanding wolf blood. And every eye glanced toward me.They thought I was doing their bidding. They thought my visions bound me to their cause. Fools.One of the rogues spat into the flames. "It has been days, yet there is no word of the girl. You promised she would bow to us."I smiled in a way that was not so kind. "The Moonblood cannot be rushed. Threads take time to knot."Another wolf, a member of the Ironclaws with a missing ear, growled. "We did not follow you to sit and wait. Ironclaw thirsts for blood and revenge. If you have no path…"I waved my hand through the air, and the fire leapt high in a ho

  • BOUND BY THE ALPHA TRIPLETS   WHISPERS OF DOMINION

    The Seer's POVThe trees bent for me when I walked.Not because I commanded them but because they remembered me. Old roots never forget whose blood was spilt on their soil. Mine had watered these lands once before. I had left this place in exile, and I swore I would never return.But now, I was back.Not as an outcast or a sister.But as dominion.The hunters trailed behind me with heavy and impatient steps. Men scarred with sigils etched into their skins and wolves bred to kill. They thought they had me in their hands. They thought they owned me.Fools.They had no idea who was truly in charge.One of the hunters, a broad-shouldered man with a patch on his left eye, stepped closer. "Seer," he spat the title like it stung his tongue. "You promised us the Moonblood. Where is she?"I did not slow down. My fingers brushed the bark of a pine tree, and it shivered. "Do not ask me where. Ask me when. The Moonblood is not a prey to be stalked. She is fire waiting for her own spark. And when
