I was born to shine. But the fate had others plans for me. The moment my feet left the edge, the world fell silent. There was only wind. And peace. For one fragile heartbeat, I was free. Like a bird. Then something slammed into me from behind. Arms. Hard. Unforgiving. The impact hurled me sideways instead of down. Wood splintered. Something inside me cracked. Darkness rushed in and I welcomed it. … “Open. Your. Eyes.” The voice was quiet, slow, deliberate. It forced its way through bone and blood. An Alpha command. Pain detonated through me as air tore back into my lungs. My body convulsed against my will. I tried to sink back into the quiet—to finish what I had started. “You were NEVER given permission to die.” Power wrapped around the words like chains. My eyes snapped open. We were beyond the pack’s borders. The air felt colder. Wilder. Untouched by law or duty. For one second, I had belonged to nothing. And he had dragged me back. He loomed above me, fury carved into every sharp angle of his face. His breathing was controlled, his posture dominant - absolute. If anyone were watching from the cliffs, they would see an Alpha asserting ownership. His jaw tightened, irritated at being forced to deal with something that should have already been resolved. I had complicated his plans. “Drink.” His wrist pressed my mouth. The metallic scent hit first. I tried to clamp my lips shut. But Alpha commands do not ask. They take. My mouth opened against my will and his blood burned down my throat, spreading heat through my chest. A cruel gift. He would not even grant me the mercy of dying on my own terms. And I understood - even my death did not belong to me.

1. The Mark
The moment my feet left the edge, the world fell silent.
There was only wind.
And peace.
For one fragile heartbeat, I was free.
Like a bird.
Then something slammed into me from behind.
Arms. Hard. Unforgiving. The impact hurled me sideways instead of down. Wood splintered. Something inside me cracked. Darkness rushed in and I welcomed it. … “Open. Your. Eyes.” The voice was quiet, slow, deliberate. It forced its way through bone and blood. An Alpha command. Pain detonated through me as air tore back into my lungs. My body convulsed against my will. I tried to sink back into the quiet—to finish what I had started. “You were NEVER given permission to die.” Power wrapped around the words like chains. My eyes snapped open. We were beyond the pack’s borders. The air felt colder. Wilder. Untouched by law or duty. For one second, I had belonged to nothing. And he had dragged me back. He loomed above me, fury carved into every sharp angle of his face. His breathing was controlled, his posture dominant - absolute. If anyone were watching from the cliffs, they would see an Alpha asserting ownership. His jaw tightened, irritated at being forced to deal with something that should have already been resolved. I had complicated his plans. “Drink.” His wrist pressed my mouth. The metallic scent hit first. I tried to clamp my lips shut. But Alpha commands do not ask. They take. My mouth opened against my will and his blood burned down my throat, spreading heat through my chest. A cruel gift. He would not even grant me the mercy of dying on my own terms. And I understood - even my death did not belong to me. --- But there had been a time when I belonged to myself. When I was strong. When the future was bright. --- “Again.” Dust rose around us in the training ring. The sun burned hot above the clearing. Darius circled me slowly. Three years older. Broad shoulders. Already fully shifted. “You’re quick,” he said with a smirk. “But you’re still smaller.” “Then don’t miss.”He lunged first.
I stepped into him instead. My forearm deflected his strike. My knee drove into his thigh. He staggered—just enough. I twisted, hooked his leg, and sent him crashing to the ground. Before he could recover, I pinned him hard, forearm at his throat. “Yield.” A breathless second passed. Then he tapped the dirt twice. The ring exploded with cheers. Darius laughed as I released him and pulled him back to his feet.“You fight like an Alpha.” he said
“No,” my father’s voice cut through the noise. He stepped forward, pride undisguised. “She fights like mine.” Applause thundered again. Dust clung to my skin. Blood marked my lip. But I had never felt more certain of who I was. --- Later that same week, four of us stood around a strategy table—future leaders of the strongest neighboring packs. Maps. Markers. Borders. Two alliances broken. One supply chain severed. Only one king still standing. Mine. The visiting Alphas exchanged measured looks before nodding once. Respect. My father’s hand rested briefly on my shoulder. “Well played.” That alone was enough. --- That night, the pack celebrated me. Torches flared high with a great bonfire at the center. Drums echoed through the clearing.Genuine smiles and applauses welcomed me when I appeared.
Warriors clasped my shoulders with rough affection. Elders blessed me with warm smiles. Children tugged at my sleeves, demanding to know what kind of trick I pulled to win against those big boys.
And I?
I laughed a lot. I danced to my heart. I let myself sink in the love of my pack and my family.
My once braided red hair was now freely let down to my waist. Flowers were still tucked randomly in there. Red fires from the torches were dancing in my green eyes. Ashes marked my cheeks as a symbol of the blessings I had recieved that night.
I stood at the center of my pack — exactly where I belonged. --- When the noise softened, my parents called me inside. My mother held a small parchment. On it, two intertwined crowns wrapped in climbing vines. “A gift” she said in a soft voice. “It represents the balance between power and wisdom. Between strength and restraint.” “And sacrifice,” my father added.The vines were elegant. The thorns subtle.
“I love it,” I said.
My mother’s smile was warm. She stepped closer, her fingers brushing lightly over my chest.
“Above your heart?” She murmured. “Where true power belongs?”
I did not hesitate.
“Perfect.”
For a fleeting second, something flickered in her eyes.
“My little girl,” she whispered, pulling me into her arms. “You are growing so fast.”
My father joined us, wrapping both of us in his embrace.
And my brother? He took just a second before forcing himself in. Laugh erupted again.
Love had always been the foundation of our family.
“You will shine,” my mother whispered.I believed her.
And in that perfect moment, I believed it would always be enough.

Born to shine 83. Bedtime
🌘 Fenrir POV “They betrayed me too,” she said softly. “But I still love them. That is what I want my rose to learn.” I said nothing. There was nothing to say. The things she described were too unfamiliar to me. A family. A real one. Natural closeness. Affection. Care. No hundreds of soldiers standing between a child and the rest of the world. No guarded corridors and whispers about power. Or palace walls built to protect me as much as to contain me. Just a little girl with red hair caught by the wind, green eyes full of trust, and a broken castle that mattered enough to make her cry. I had seen a glimpse of that girl. Just once. When she stomped her foot at me. The sheer offense in her eyes. The way she had acted on impulse, without caring what I would see or how I would react. My gaze focused back on her. Arria was curled against me, warm and soft, but still too cautious in ways that made my wolf restless. She had learned to fold herself small. To measure her words.

🍃 Arria POV “We left her there as agreed,” Stone reported. “The border patrols chased after us. We could not stay behind and check what happened after we ran into the woods.” “She will be fine.” Fenrir’s conviction made my chest loosen a little. The worry was still etched deep in my heart, but it was bearable now. Fenrir turned toward Greg. “Keep an eye on the checkpoint. We will get a letter in three days.” He nodded once. “Tomorrow. Ten o’clock. Here.” Stone and Greg said goodbye and left the house. Silence settled for a moment. Too many things were hanging by a thread. Too many things could go wrong. Too many people—important people—were in danger. We were planning, preparing, and betting on the ones we trusted, but in the end, it still might not be enough. “Walk?” Fenrir asked. “Sure.” I slipped my hand into his. The difference in size was obvious. And simply perfect. His warmth seeped into me, and a small exhale left me. Everywhere, I thought. I would f

🦊 Melanie POV I ran as if possessed—branches tearing at my face and hands, my bare feet hurting every time I stepped on a sharp stone. Howls followed me from behind. My pursuers were getting closer every second, but I did not look back. I needed to reach the clearing before they got to me. So I ran harder, faster, pushing my aching body beyond its limits. But it did not really matter—I was in human form, and they were wolves. Big. Dark. Hunting. Me. My heart was beating so loudly that I could not even register the sounds around me anymore. Then it happened—I was out of the forest, and the border of the nearest pack was almost within reach. I screamed for help. No one came forward. No one was going to save me. I felt the breath of the wolf behind me, just inches from my neck. My time was up. Suddenly—crash. Hard. A massive wolf’s body slammed into another. I came to a full stop. Didn’t turn around. Couldn’t. I was frozen in place, caught in the scent that hit me. I

Arria POV“Are we doing it here?” I asked him, “Now?”“Mhm.”Fenrir didn't like my decision to try to heal my thorn.But now out of nowhere he was so ready to help. What was going on?“Okay, but let Alaric speak for himself,” I believe his instincts are what can help understand it better.”He studied me for a moment.Then, without another word from him, Alaric's powerful voice filled the room.“Hello, mate.”It was always amusing to watch how his face changed when Alaric came forward.Instead of that ever present mask of control, every muscle was coming to life.Something warm and roguish at the same time.“Hello, to you too, mate.”I smiled at him.“Beautiful.”Simply.Firmly.A blush started creeping up my neck.His eyes followed the trail that the warm left behind.
