The gates of Eldorin loomed tall, cruel, and untouched by time—like the cold memories that still clung to its stones.

Tristan stood before them, the wind tugging at the edge of his cloak, the weight of his past pressing into his shoulders like invisible chains. Ten years. Ten long years since he last crossed this threshold. And now… he returned not as the boy everyone scorned, but as a man. An Alpha.

His jaw tightened.

This wasn’t a homecoming. He wasn't here for sentiment or the lies dressed up in gold. He was here on a mission. One with urgency.

Behind him, three of his best warriors waited silently, their eyes sharp, sensing the tension in their Alpha’s posture. But they said nothing. They knew. Everyone who’d ever served under him knew there were places he carried like scars—and Eldorin was the deepest of them all.

He didn’t glance at the decorations lining the walkways. The banners, the musicians, the guards standing in precision… all of it a charade. A staged welcome for the “Fi

  • Claimed By The Big Bad Alpha    Chapter 67

    Tristan stood at the edge of the valley, motionless. The pale soil crumbled beneath his boots, but he didn’t feel it. His eyes remained locked on the endless stretch of emptiness ahead, lips pressed in a hard line. The underworld’s sky—if it could even be called that—swirled in dull gray, untouched by the brightness of the moon. Four days. Four days of silence, of nothingness, of hunting ghosts in a land that laughed in the face of reason.The map had brought them here. The coordinates matched. The terrain aligned. Every mark, every rune etched into the parchment had led them to this place.But there was no city. No Alkerderm, no people.Just hollow wind and hills full of bones.Behind him, his warriors remained alert, weapons drawn, eyes sharp. None of them trusted what they saw. And why should they? The underworld was built on deception, they were told. Not everything you see is how it seems.Marcus stepped up beside him, voice low. “We’ve searched the entire perimeter. Twice. There

    I stayed frozen with time, chanting my mate's name like a mantra. Drops of rain drizzled down but I couldn't feel it...I couldn't feel anything.Tristan’s blood soaked into my dress, warm and sticky, seeping between my fingers as I cradled him. The blood around us was partly washed by the ranin. His head rested against my chest, eyes half-lidded, lifeless. The knife still sat in my palm like a curse, slick and cold, a reminder of what I’d done.No. No, no, no—The sound of feet skidding on grass sliced through the silence.I heard it but I couldn't care less.Not when my mate—my mate—was lying in my arms like this.“Luna?”The voice cracked.Emma.The little girl I saved the night of my coronation. She stood at the edge of the garden, hands clenched in her dress, eyes huge and wet as they locked onto me.Onto him.I didn’t speak. Couldn’t.The next voice was harsher and older. “Beta Lucas—over here!”More footsteps thundered in. Dozens.I didn’t lift my head. The sob caught in my thr

    I scrambled to my feet, blood pounding in my ears.The wall behind me groaned louder.It was opening.Of course, it will I bolted, my feet slipping slightly on the stone floor before I found my footing. The hallway stretched ahead like a lifeline, and I ran for it, heart thundering in my chest. My lungs were on fire. Every step screamed through my sore muscles, but I didn’t care.I have...to get away.I have to—He appeared.Just like that.One second the hallway was empty—and the next, he was standing right in front of me.Geez, I've forgotten he could do that.I screamed, skidding to a halt—but it was too late. My body slammed into his chest, and I stumbled back, crashing to the floor in a heap. My knees scraped hard, my palms hit the cold stone, and I stared up at him, breath caught in my throat.I couldn’t breathe.I tried summoning my powers...tried doing something but I just couldn't see past the fear that clouded my eyes.Then he moved.His hand shot out—faster than I could re

    Three Days LaterI stood in front of the passageway again.The cold hallway was quiet around me, but my heart thudded so loudly in my chest it might as well have echoed off the walls. I had trained like a damn dog these past few days—bruised, battered, pushed past exhaustion. Damian’s mood had been darker than usual. More impatient. Less forgiving. Like something was shifting behind his eyes, something he wasn’t saying but couldn’t keep buried anymore.It was like he was trying to speed everything up.But I had other plans.I stared at the portrait on the wall—the ridiculous one. The one with the man in royal robes and the world’s most obnoxious mustache curling over his smug lips. If I hadn’t known better, I’d think he was smirking at me. Mocking me.This was it.I knew I had to go back. The book weighed like guilt beneath my clothes, hidden under the long jacket I’d stolen from the laundry. I’d kept it close, hidden it through the training days, and not once dared to open it again.

    I couldn’t sleep.Not after what I saw.Even now, as I sat upright on the cold bed in this unfamiliar room, I could still feel the chill of that other place clinging to my bones. The freezer room. The metal caskets. The… bodies inside them. I wrapped my arms tightly around myself and tried not to remember, but the images kept coming in jagged flashes. A face. Those frozen, glaring eyes.My stomach churned.The only light in the room came from a small lamp on the table beside me.On my lap sat the book I had taken—no, stolen—earlier. I hadn’t even realized I’d grabbed it when I ran from that room. But here it was now, heavy and strange and oddly warm despite its ancient leather cover. I knew I needed to return it before Damian found out. But the thought of going back into that place made bile rise in my throat.Still, my hands moved on their own.With trembling fingers, I opened it. The pages felt old but untouched by time, like they’d been preserved through some kind of dark magic."L

  • Claimed By The Big Bad Alpha    Chapter 62

    Tristan stood at the center of his old room in the Eldorin palace, the silence pressing against him like a long-forgotten memory. The air here hadn’t changed—it still carried the faint scent of stone,and carried the same oppressive feel. The torches along the far wall flickered, casting erratic shadows that danced over the worn blades mounted above his fireplace.He ran a hand through his hair as he paced in front of window. From there, he could see the great marble courtyard where he'd once trained from sunrise to dusk, a boy too proud to admit pain. The same place he’d made his first kill under his father’s watchful eye. The same ground where he had escaped after the accusations of him trying to kill Rhovan.He squeezed his eyes shut.This room remained him of a cage...the whole palace did.The council meeting had been adjourned—he had expected that but was still livif. The elders are dragging their feet, insisting on “strategy,” on “rest,” while every part of him screamed to move n
