LOGINWhen I was eight, we went to the Training School in the North with all the pups under Auntie Kira’s care.
The snow was thicker there, and the temperature was several degrees lower than we were used to.
Unfortunately, Aunt Kira’s school assistant hadn't anticipated the sudden snowstorm that swept through the area.
I had been asleep inside one of the training cabins when the storm hit, and because the cabin was di
Jace looked like he was about to explode with rage. I couldn't understand why he was so upset when he had been the one who said he would leave Eris if necessary. Then again, an Alpha's wounded pride was probably a different matter, huh?“Lord Jace, I have no idea what she’s talking about!” the waiter protested, shrinking back with his hands raised.“No, you fool! You tricked me!” Eris shot back.Lia had finally reached her limit.“Whatever issues the two of you have, take them somewhere else!” she snapped. “This is my engagement celebration with Barry! I only allowed you to attend because of your connection to Lady Calla, but all you've done is cause trouble!”“Y-You know she's the Alpha Princess? You're the one who put those ideas into my head!” Eris accused.“I have no idea what you're talking about!”
When I was eight, we went to the Training School in the North with all the pups under Auntie Kira’s care.The snow was thicker there, and the temperature was several degrees lower than we were used to.Unfortunately, Aunt Kira’s school assistant hadn't anticipated the sudden snowstorm that swept through the area.I had been asleep inside one of the training cabins when the storm hit, and because the cabin was directly in the path of the heaviest snowfall, the assistant somehow overlooked me during the headcount before everyone left the area.Thankfully, one of the Atherton twins noticed I was missing and went back to look for me.He searched the whole cabin, room by room, until he finally found me curled up on a cot.But by then, the cabin was already buried beneath thick layers of snow and chunks of rock that had come loose from the cli
Eris approached my table, her eyes rimmed red and glistening as though she were on the verge of tears. She walked with slightly hunched shoulders, one hand pressed to her stomach, the picture of a fragile, wronged she-wolf. “Calla, I didn’t know I had offended the Alpha Princess. I’m truly sorry… If I had known, I would never have tried to seduce Jace.” She took the seat across from me. “I’ll break things off with Jace and give him back to you. Just please don’t go after his pack house. They’re already struggling, and they’ve worked so hard to build what they have today.” My lips curved. “Lady Eris, that’s not quite the impression you gave me when you poisoned Lora.” She froze. For one heartbeat, the mask slipped, and something cold flickered behind her watery eyes before she blinked and it was gone. “I-I wasn’t in my right mind back then. Please, just forgive Jace and me.” She turned toward the waiter who had approached me earlier and motioned for him to come over. “Would you
“You’re the Alpha Princess?” he said, disbelief thick in his voice. It was clear he wasn’t asking for confirmation; he was struggling to accept the truth. I met his gaze without flinching. “Does it matter now?” His lips trembled. “Calla… We’ve known each other for five years, even back when you were just starting out. We were friends. How could you keep that from me?” I let out a mocking laugh. “Jace, did you expect me to announce that Alpha Lucian’s daughter was living in some distant territory? I kept my identity secret to protect myself.” “But if you had told me…” “Your ‘buts’ and ‘ifs’ mean nothing to me anymore. You’re married now, and I should thank you for showing me who you really are. The morning you returned to Meridian Pack, I had high hopes for you. I thought you would at least give me a chance to explain… “But instead, you greeted me with insults and brought along the pregnant she-wolf you’d been sleeping with for the past six months.” “No, Calla!” His voice cracke
Meanwhile, Jace and Eris were both visibly stunned. One of the Atherton twins had just addressed Calla as the Alpha Princess. Jace’s heart pounded against his chest. “I-Is Calla really the Alpha Princess?” he stammered, swallowing hard. “No! That’s impossible!” Eris exclaimed, shaking her head in disbelief. “We spoke to the Alpha Princess earlier! And she clearly wasn’t Calla!” ‘But the elite wolves from the Alpha Prince’s inner circle have been by Calla’s side this entire time?’ Jace wanted to argue, but the words caught in his throat as he looked at Calla. Her eyes, once warm whenever she looked at him, were now cold and utterly indifferent. “If Calla really were the Alpha Princess, Ms. Grant would have told us! We were at the hospital just the other day, and they practically threw her out! Even the director looked down on her. She’s just an ordinary healer!” But no matter how much Eris protested, the scene unfolding before them was impossible to ignore. The elite wolves, th
Alpha Logan had to attend to his mother, who was clearly still upset. I assumed Barry had gone with them to try to talk some sense into her, though I couldn't quite understand why he would bother. So, when Lia approached me, Barry was nowhere to be seen. I was surrounded by a few friends, some of whom I'd known since our days at the School of Pups. They were all elite wolves from different territories. “Alpha Princess, I know you and I have never gotten along,” Lia began, her voice trembling as tears gathered in her eyes. “You could never understand how I feel because you were born into wealth! You're the Alpha Princess. You have every privilege in this world.” I couldn't believe how ridiculous this she-wolf was. She seemed determined to blame her circumstances for everything, as if that excused her endless greed. “So, what you're saying is that I'll only understand how you feel once you get your hands on thirty percent of the Atherton family's shares? What's next? What else are yo
“I accept the marriage alliance with the Blackwood Pack…” The words felt heavy the moment they left my lips. I didn’t even need the time my father had given me to prove my mate bond with Soren. That alone was embarrassing enough, but what made it worse was how he didn’t question me at all, as if
My mind is a mess. I pushed myself to get into Lycan Academy because, just as Rumi said, it was part of my agreement with Soren. This is the most prestigious school for wolves, one that doesn’t favor any pack, no matter where they come from, because it answers only to its own standards. I had told
“Gwen?” Rumi’s voice snapped me out of my daze after I froze at what I had just witnessed. For a second, I tried to convince myself it was nothing, desperately gaslighting my own thoughts. But my heart had already dropped the moment Soren and the woman kissed. She has blonde hair, effortlessl
[Gwyneth] They say the Moon Goddess will grant you the things you desire most, as long as the moon and time are aligned. I’ve believed in her for as long as I can remember. That’s why I’ve always been certain that Soren and I are mates, from the very moment I first understood what love was. ***
