Mag-log inDo you think Lucian believes Remus is Caius’s real father?
[Calla] I was staying in the small cottage with Lora, my grandmother, whose true identity we had kept secret from everyone. By now, I had grown accustomed to calling her simply “Lora.” A bird made entirely of fire suddenly appeared in the distance, flying straight toward us. When I was fifteen, I chose to leave with Lora and train as a healer under her guidance. Four years ago, when a pandemic swept through the Meridian Territory, I was among those who came to help the afflicted. When Lora decided to remain in the territory, I stayed by her side. Not only did she need my help, but it also gave me the chance to hone my healing skills further and prepare for my future responsibilities as the daughter of the Alpha King. As far as the Meridian Pack members knew, we were merely healers assigned to the territory by High Chancellor Flint. No one suspected who I really was. My parents and I had agreed that I would return to Verge City on my twentieth birthday, which was now only a month
Fear gripped me at his revelation, and my fingers curled tightly into the sheets. “But you don’t have to worry about that anymore, my love. Ever since the incident at the well, he hasn’t heard her voice again,” Lucian continued. “Does that mean we destroyed Virel’s essence in the well?” I asked, my lycan spirit stirring uneasily at the thought that the evil goddess might still be out there. “I don’t know.” Lucian’s expression grew solemn. “But whatever happens, I refuse to let Caius become like me or suffer the same fate because of his bloodline. I won’t let him go through what I did.” He held my gaze, his eyes softening as if he could sense the unease building inside me through our mate bond. “Remember this, my love. I would never knowingly put our family in danger. You and our pups will always come first. I’ll choose you over anyone else, even the Moon Goddess herself.” His words warmed my heart. He gently brushed his fingers against my cheek before leaning down to capture my
Coming home was the best decision I had ever made. Amanda had returned to check on Lora, who would soon be continuing her studies at the Lycan Academy.“Mommy!”Calla’s face lit up the moment she spotted me in the dining area, where I was preparing our meal. The instant she caught my scent from the entrance to our mansion wing, she came running toward me on her little legs.Caius followed close behind his twin sister, his face brightening as soon as he saw me.“My babies!”I opened my arms and gathered them both into a tight embrace, showering their cheeks with kisses.“I missed you, Mommy!” Caius murmured against me. “Dad said you went with Luna Kira when she returned home.”I glanced at Lucian, who stood nearby, watching us with a broad smile.“Have my little pups been good while Daddy was taking care of you?” I a
“Gwen, you should be dead by now!” Rosalia shrieked, her bloodshot eyes blazing with hatred as she glared at me. “You’re the reason my life has become a living hell!”“Alpha Kaelen, make her shut up,” I said calmly.He looked less than pleased at being given orders, especially by a packless wolf like me. After all, he was an Alpha, and I had no pack to back me up. Yet, despite his obvious reluctance, he motioned to the guards who had brought Rosalia in.One of them immediately pressed a silver knife against her throat.“Don’t make a scene here! I hate irritating voices, and yours is at the top of my list!” Kaelen said, his jaw tight, making it clear that he was doing this for his own sake and no one else’s.‘Whatever!’Rosalia swallowed nervously and finally clamped her mouth shut.“We found this she-w
“What if he’s just bluffing?” Alpha Kaelen asked as soon as I announced my decision to go to the Black Forest and investigate the place where Lucian’s mother’s body had supposedly been found. “I’ll take responsibility for whatever happens,” I replied without hesitation. “You can’t be serious!” His voice rose, and his Alpha aura flared with his displeasure. I clenched my jaw, irritated by his attempt to intimidate me. “I am the Alpha of this territory, and you are Alpha Lucian’s mate. As long as you’re within my borders, your safety is my responsibility! I won’t allow you to put yourself in danger without considering the consequences. My word is final here.” “Gwen…” Kira’s voice was softer than her husband’s, though her expression remained troubled. “Alpha Kaelen has a point. All we have is information from the Head Council. We don’t know if it’s true, and we can’t afford to trust him blindly.” “But this isn’t just some rumor to my family and me. You heard what he said. He called
The head council was summoned to appear before us. I arrived with Alpha Kaelen and his mate, Kira, along with Amanda and the beta of their pack. When he was brought in and saw who was waiting for him, the corner of his lips curled into a smirk. “I never realized I was such an important figure. So, what do you need from me?” he asked, his gaze lingering on Kira. I stepped forward, unwilling to waste time on his arrogance. “Where is the Alpha King’s mother? Alpha Derrick’s first mate?” He scoffed, looking utterly unimpressed. “I want to speak with the Alpha King himself. I won’t answer any of your questions. If you want the information I possess, only the Alpha King can grant me my freedom in exchange.” Kaelen’s hands curled into fists, his wolf clearly agitated by the head council’s insolence. However, Kira was the first to speak. “Alpha Lucian wouldn’t waste a second of his time on you, let alone consider freeing a wretched wolf like you.” “He would if he wanted to know what I
Thirty seconds passed before I finally reacted, my eyes scanning the crowded room as if searching for an exit that didn’t exist. It was only my second day at school, and the last thing I needed was to be branded as a delusional she-wolf before I’d even learned anyone’s name. Then a flash of red lig
“I’m Amanda. I already met Kira last night,” said the woman who had seemed worried earlier. She had short hair, a slim figure, and an innocent face. From the way she looked, I guessed she was around twenty. “So, you must be Kira?” Vada said, turning to the other girl. “Yes!” she answered brightly.
“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. ***
