- Maive's POV -

This time, I saw it. A woman standing a few feet away, staring straight at me. But her eyes… they weren’t just curious. They were sharp. Confused. Almost afraid.

Her gaze dropped to my neck.

My breath caught. Instinctively, I lifted my hand and covered the right side of my neck… the place where the bite mark was.

The mark from that night.

My body froze. My heart pounded in my ears.

Had she seen it? Did she know?

Aunt Vera noticed my movement. She looked at me, her eyes dark with unspoken thoughts. She wanted to ask. I could feel it. But she said nothing.

Her silence hurt more than words.

We eventually left the market and started walking home. I helped her carry the bags, though my arms trembled from the weight. It was the least I could do.

But Aunt Vera was quiet. Too quiet. Her mind was elsewhere, and I knew it had to do with that woman’s stare… and the bite mark on my neck.

I followed in silence, afraid to ask, afraid of the answers.

Suddenly, a voice rang out. “Aun

  • CLAIMED BY DARK ALPHA   The End of Me

    I hid in a tree, my whole body trembling as if the wind itself was shaking me. I knew the werewolves were chasing after me. And in a race of speed, I would surely lose. No matter how fast my legs carried me earlier, theirs would always be stronger, faster, sharper. If they caught me, there was only one thing waiting... death.My hands were shaking as I looked around, desperate for anything, even the smallest chance to fight back. My eyes darted up to the thick branches above me. A crazy thought entered my mind, but I didn’t hesitate. Higher up would be safer. Maybe I could hide, maybe I could buy time.I climbed quickly, ignoring the scratches on my palms from the rough bark. My breath was harsh, my chest burning, but I forced myself upward. When I finally reached a branch strong enough to hold me, I crouched low, clutching a twig I had grabbed on the way.With my teeth clenched, I snapped the twig in half. I expected it to be impossible since its width was almost the size of my wrist

  • CLAIMED BY DARK ALPHA   Werewolves Exist

    - Maive's POV -Bad luck and mysteries have always followed me like a shadow. No matter where I go, no matter how much I try to live a normal life, I cannot get rid of them. Yet lately, I thought maybe luck was starting to take my side. Aunt Vera and Uncle Silas welcomed me into their home as if I were their own blood, and Tobias… somehow, he made school bearable.Time passed quickly. I passed the exam and was accepted into high school. For the first time in my life, I went to school without being bullied, without cruel whispers behind my back, without stones thrown at me when I walked past. Perhaps it was because of Tobias—he was popular, respected, someone people didn’t dare mess with. And since I was often with him, no one touched me.But that didn’t mean I was at peace.Some of my classmates still looked at me strangely. Many avoided me. Some who looked arrogant and merciless suddenly turned soft the moment their eyes landed on the bite mark on my neck. Their expressions would cha

  • CLAIMED BY DARK ALPHA   The Narrow Alley

    - Maive's POV -I froze when I felt a sudden hand grip my shoulder. My heart leapt, pounding violently against my ribs, and I spun around in fear.The woman who had touched me quickly withdrew her hand, startled by my reaction.I exhaled shakily, relief washing over me when I realized it wasn’t one of the men I had feared—it was a woman. Still, my body trembled, slow to recover from the jolt of terror.“You seemed to be new here,” she said, her eyes sweeping over me from head to toe as if memorizing every detail of my face.I nodded politely. “Yes. I’m… I’m still not familiar with this place.”Her beauty was undeniable. Wavy hair framed her delicate features, and in her hands she carried plastic bags filled with groceries. Despite her soft appearance, there was a sharpness in her gaze that made me feel as though she could see more than she was saying.“You should be careful,” she advised gently, her voice carrying weight. “There are drunkards who linger in this alley. You shouldn’t pa

  • CLAIMED BY DARK ALPHA   Sweet Smell

    - Vera's POV -I immediately answered the call from an unknown number, fully aware of who it was. My heart pounded as the screen glowed, my fingers trembling when I pressed accept.“My Lord…” I whispered in a polite tone as soon as I lifted the phone to my ear.To be honest, a large part of me was afraid of him. Who wouldn’t be? Everyone fears him. All creatures do.“It has been a while. Anything new?” His cold voice crawled through the line, slicing straight through my bones.“E-Everything is smooth, My Lord. It all goes according to your plan…” My voice shook as I forced myself to speak, my eyes drifting to the girl Arman had brought us. “She’s doing great,” I added quickly when I saw her laughing softly with Tobias outside, her innocence unknowing of the shadows that hovered over her life.“You must take care of her.”The order was sharp. Unbending. Yet beneath the ice in his tone, I could feel it... sincerity. Concern. A strange warmth buried in all that darkness.“As you wish, My

  • CLAIMED BY DARK ALPHA   The Mysterious Car

    "Maive!"I heard Uncle Silas scream my name. My eyes flew open, and I was shocked to find myself perfectly standing on the ground. Not a scratch, not even a single sign of pain from what should have been a deadly fall. My mouth opened wide in disbelief. I was sure. I was completely sure that I was going to break my bones, that I was going to die from the height I jumped. Yet here I was, alive, steady on my feet as if my body had suddenly turned weightless.How?My heart pounded so loudly it almost deafened me. The memory of the snake on the branch flashed before my eyes, the terror of its fangs made my knees feel weak. I hugged the cat tighter, as if its tiny body was the only proof that I was still alive."Are you alright?" Uncle Silas rushed toward me, worry filling his voice. He checked my arms, my legs, as if expecting blood and fractures.I nodded, though my whole body was trembling. Inside, I was still falling. The fear had not left, but something else was stronger—confusion. Th
