ログインWhat punishment do you think Zev deserves for leading both women on?
“Zev!” Diana cried out. “You can’t deny that what we have is real. If you’re determined to stay with Kira, then reject our mate bond first, and I’ll leave this place! Don’t keep me waiting or force me to watch you choose someone else while pretending you still care about me!” For several heartbeats, silence settled over the clearing. It seemed Zev had no answer. “But the executioners…” he finally muttered. “They’ll hunt us down.” “Is that really what’s stopping you?” Diana shot back bitterly. “Or is it because Kira is the Alpha’s daughter? Being with her means power, protection, and status… I’m just an omega; I have nothing to offer you.” I listened in silence, my stomach twisting with every painful word. Deep down, I knew there was a strong possibility that her words were true. “Reject the bond, Zev!” she demanded. “Stop leading Kira and me on!” “I-I can’t, Diana… I don’t want to lose you…” “You claim to love Kira, yet you keep making me believe you love me too! You can’t have
It was the night of my birthday, and the pack house was alive with laughter and conversation as family, warriors, and close friends gathered. It was also the deadline I had given Lucian to hear my answer.In the end, I chose not to go to Thornfell and marry their alpha.I refused to let my future be dictated by his baseless suspicion that Gwen was hiding somewhere in there.Throughout the celebration, I kept myself busy introducing Amanda and Vada to pack members I knew, making sure they felt welcome and that no one gave them a reason to feel out of place during their stay in Blackwood.As we chatted, Zev’s mother approached and gently patted my hand.“Kira, I invited Zev to come tonight, but he’s buried in pack duties. I hope you understand. He hasn’t been himself since your argument on the training grounds.”Word traveled quickly in a werewolf pack. By now, almost everyone h
Lucian had given me time to think things over and decide whether I would agree to his proposal. It had been several days since then, yet I hadn’t even seen Zev’s shadow. Normally, after a fight like this, he would already be outside the manor, refusing to leave until I forgave him, even if it meant waiting there for days.Amanda and Vada were the only ones who came to visit me. I’d invited them to celebrate my birthday with me, though I still wasn’t sure whether that had been the right decision.They arrived with two female warriors assigned as their escorts.Early that morning, I made my way to their guest room, still wearing my nightgown.“Happy birthday, Kira!” Amanda chirped as soon as I stepped inside, pressing a small box into my hands. “These are special medicines made by yours truly!”Laughing softly, I hugged her before she pointed toward another neatly wrapped p
The Moon Goddess rarely intervened by assigning a fated mate to someone who had already chosen a partner. But when she did, everything depended on the strength of the chosen bond, and ours was already falling apart. I turned my back on her and walked away, no longer able to keep my tears from falling. Before I had gone far, I spotted Zev striding toward me. What? Did he think I was going to harm Diana? Was that why he came after me without a second thought? Within seconds, he was standing in front of me. He caught my arm before I could walk past him. “Kira, will you please stop this? You’re making a scene and embarrassing both of us!” “Then let’s end this!” I yanked my arm free. “I reject whatever we have so you can be with your damned fated mate without any complications. At least then you won’t have to keep pretending you’re torn between us!” His expression tightened. “I’m choosing you, Kira. Can’t you see that? Nothing ever happened between Diana and me. I never crossed that
Zev’s words echoed in my ears as emotions I couldn’t name churned inside me. “I already told you earlier that the past few days have been terrible for me, but you’re only making my frustration worse!”This time, I didn’t chase after him. I stood frozen as he walked away, my own anger swelling until it nearly consumed me. This wasn’t fun or love anymore. In the human world, they would call this a toxic relationship. Yet, here I was, unable to walk away, unable to accept that I might be losing him.I ran in the opposite direction, unable to suppress the ache in my chest, tangled with dark jealousy and simmering resentment.There was only one place I needed to go: the training grounds. If someone were trying to come between Zev and me or threaten my place as his future mate, I would confront the issue myself instead of running from it.The clang of weapons and the scent of sweat filled the air
The moon hung high above us, bathing the clearing in silver light. This date with Zev should have been perfect, so I forced myself to push every thought of Diana from my mind. I refused to let anything ruin tonight. “I’m really happy to see you,” Zev said, taking my hand. But almost immediately, his expression darkened. “Anyway, Lucian keeps investigating the security breach that happened during his mating ceremony. He suspects I’m a traitor, thinks I should never have allowed the Ravencrest pack to get inside our territory.” I didn’t know what to say. “He’s so focused on me when there are plenty of other members he should be investigating instead!” He exhaled heavily before shaking his head. “Forget it. I don’t want to talk about it anymore.” I managed a small smile. I didn’t want to think about Lucian either. Every time his name crossed my mind, Gwen’s face inevitably followed, stirring an ache I couldn’t quite bury. A cool breeze swept through the clearing, lifting the edge of
Kira still hadn’t calmed down by the time we returned to the manor.The atmosphere throughout the territory felt heavy, as though the tension from earlier had seeped into the very air around us.“Was I wrong for crashing out like that?” she asked quietl
“Lucian, are you defending the actions of the Hollow Pack’s daughter?” the man retorted, clearly displeased with the situation.“Perhaps you’re forgetting that my mate is a member of the Hollow Pack, and she’s sitting right next to me! Or are you deliberately trying to humiliate me?”
“Why?” Enzo asked as he rose from the edge of the bed.Before I could answer, my phone rang from the bedside table. The screen lit up with Soren’s name.A shadow crossed Enzo’s face. “Is this because you still care about that Ravencrest wolf
[Kira]“Where is Zev?” I asked one of the servants the moment I stepped into the Beta’s manor.The wolf I mentioned is the Beta’s son, destined to become my husband and strengthen the pack even further. Amon
