Arda peeked through the bedroom curtains. From there, she could see the pack still seated around the long meeting table in the garden.

Gillow dominated the ruler’s seat with effortless authority. Felicia leaned toward him, explaining something with fluid confidence. He sat poised, listening intently. Even from this distance, his presence felt intimidating.

Arda wondered why Felicia wasn’t afraid of him. Then she remembered—Felicia had been his mate once. That was their word for it. She still felt the sting of Gillow’s quiet confession earlier: “Just so you know, we’ve been together before.”

Arda had decided to familiarize herself with the strange terms and dynamics of this world. She figured it would help her plan an escape.

Watching Felicia now, Arda felt a pang of envy. It wasn’t just her closeness to Gillow—it was her confidence, her ease, the way she carried herself like she belonged.

She wondered what they were discussing and couldn’t help but recall Gillow’s abrupt dism

  • Born For The Alpha   91: The alpha and his Luna

    As Arda and Gillow kissed, the chaos and echoes of war felt like distant memories. The night was calm now—soft, silver, and alive with the rhythm of victory.When Gillow finally drew back, his sharp gaze caught something at the edge of the crowd. A faint smirk tugged at his lips.“Those two are breaking the law,” he said telepathically, his golden eyes sliding toward Karina and Chester—locked in their own world, kissing under the glow of the moonlight.Arda followed his gaze and smiled, her cheeks warming.“I think you should adjust that law, mate,” she teased. “Those two are now genuinely inseparable.”“Hmn,” Gillow hummed, pretending to consider it. “You might have a point. I’ll see what I can do about that.”Then his lips curled with quiet amusement. “But wait—did you just call me mate?”Arda giggled, her laughter soft and musical against the night.“I like that,” he murmured, before claiming her lips again—gentler this time, full of promise rather than battle.---One Week LaterM

  • Born For The Alpha   90: Alpha Luna Bond

    Chapter 90 – Alpha Luna Bond Arda ran through the moon-lit corridors of the mansion, her heart pounding as the sound of claws scraped on the wooden floor behind her. Felicia’s growl echoed after her, deep and feral, a predator closing in on prey.But as she fled past the towering bookshelves, Arda heard in her mind Adeline’s urgent words: “You must. Believe in yourself.”And she remembered Gillow’s voice, strong and steady even in the heat of battle: “You are not weak and can never be weak.”Images flashed in her mind—her father fighting on the courtyard field, her brother Maca tearing into enemies, the hybrids struggling under the poison of mountain ash. They were all risking their lives.She stumbled to a stop, her breath sharp in her throat.I can’t keep running, she thought. Not while they fight. Not while I have a chance to try.Arda turned.Felicia skidded to a halt a few paces away, momentarily startled by the unexpected defiance. Her amber-gold wolf eyes narrowed, hackles bri

  • Born For The Alpha   89: Dawn of War

    Gillow was about to say something reassuring to Arda when his expression sharpened. The lazy calm in his eyes vanished. He sat up, head turning slightly, nostrils flaring.Arda straightened. “What is it?”He didn’t answer at first. He tilted his head, listening to the silence, then lifted his face toward the paling sky.“Do you hear it?” he asked finally, voice low and edged.Arda held her breath, focusing. At first she heard nothing but the distant ripple of water. Then a faint mechanical whir drifted down from above—so soft it could have been mistaken for the wings of night insects.Her heart thudded. “Gillow…”He rose to his feet, the predatory focus of the Alpha settling over him. His crimson eyes glowed faintly as he scanned the faintly glowing sky.Shapes moved above the thinning clouds—dark, insect-like silhouettes against the paling blue. A half-dozen, no, more, circling.“Drones,” he said, his voice turning hard. “Not ours.”Even as he spoke, small black canisters detached fr

    As they dressed again by the lake, the glow of a nearby lantern caught Arda’s eye. A little way up the bank stood a low, round-roofed tent of pale fabric, its entrance drawn back. Inside, a soft fire-bowl glowed and a pile of thick furs waited, warm against the cool night. Gillow noticed her glance. His voice, low and warm, brushed against her ear. “It’s tradition. A shelter is prepared for the mates on the night of the first run. We’ll greet our pack in the morning as one.” "Okay." Her eyes met his, steady and shining. “I’m ready.” He drew her close and kissed her — a slow, deep joining that carried both tenderness and the fierce new bond between them. He led ther towards the tent. The tent was lit softly by a single lantern that cast a golden glow over the furs laid out for them. Gillow held Arda’s hand as they stepped inside. The muffled hush of the forest and the gentle lap of water from the nearby lake made the space feel almost separate from the world. Arda l

  • Born For The Alpha   87: The Mating Ceremony, Part I

    The invited pack members had gathered in the moon-lit arena, standing in neat clusters according to their regions. The air was thick with anticipation and the scent of pine and burning resin. Arda’s family stood among the front rows, a little apart from the rest, their presence drawing quiet glances. Arda leaned closer to the women around her, her voice low but wistful. “I wish my human family were here,” she murmured. Sue touched her arm gently, her tone steady but protective. “In case there is trouble, they would be the most vulnerable. That’s why Gillow didn’t want them here. It’s for their own good.” Karina’s eyes softened as she added, “At least they were there to see you married the human way.” Arda nodded, the corner of her lips lifting into a faint smile. “I know. It’s just… a wish.” Her mother’s sister stepped closer, her presence a quiet comfort. “They sent their love,” she said with a reassuring smile. “Now focus on the present. Everything will be all r

  • Born For The Alpha   86: Omen at Dawn

    The first rays of the sun gilded the garden when Gillow returned to the mansion. The scent of dew and the distant murmur of the woods mixed with the crisp morning air. At a long wooden table beneath a white canopy, his lieutenants and advisers waited, their eyes following their Alpha as he strode across the grass.It was the day of the mating ceremony.The discussion at the garden table was brief but grave—last-minute arrangements for security, instructions for border patrols, and the final details for the ritual under the rising moon. When the meeting was dismissed, the men scattered to their posts, leaving Gillow to walk back toward the mansion’s wide veranda.Inside, he found Arda in their chamber, sitting at the edge of the bed, her phone clutched tight in her hands. Her brow was furrowed, her posture tense, and she didn’t notice him at first.Gillow’s voice broke the silence. “What troubles you, mate?”Arda looked up quickly. Her eyes were wide, her voice hushed but urgent. “Plea
