She took a step closer, her eyes fixed on him with an intensity he hadn’t seen before. “When you wanted nothing to do with me, you rejected me. You didn’t care how I would feel or the pain I’d go through. But now… now that you need my help, you come back, claiming you have rights over me?”Kieran took a deep breath, visibly affected by her words. The look in her eyes and the bitterness in her tone made him wince. Yet, he forced himself to stand his ground. “Whether you like it or not, Cathrine,” he said, his voice steady, “you’re my mate.” Slowly, he rose from where he’d lying on the ground, dusting off his clothes as he looked at her with a determined gaze. “The Moon Goddess chose you for me.”Cathrine laughed, but there was no humor in it. Her laughter was sharp and cutting, filled with a cold disbelief. “She chose wrong.” Her words sliced through the s
Kieran and the three friends who had insisted on following him stood there, staring at Cathrine and Luca. The silence between them hung heavy in the air, charged with tension and unspoken challenges. Each of Kieran's friends glanced uneasily at one another, perhaps realizing this meeting wasn’t going to be as simple as they’d expected. Kieran's jaw clenched, his gaze fixed on Cathrine, but she showed no signs of acknowledging him.Cathrine turned away from Kieran, her expression unreadable, and focused her attention on Luca, who still seemed unsteady on his feet. “Get up, Luca,” she said gently, her voice steady and resolute as she leaned down to help him. Her hand under his arm was firm but tender, like a shield against all that was dark around them. She looked up and gave him an encouraging nod, her eyes filled with determination. “We have to leave this place. I’m done hiding from Damian. Let’s go back to the hut.”With a quiet nod, Luca gathered himself, drawing strength from Cathr
"Argh!" Luca’s scream echoed through the night, sharp with pain. His muscles strained, every nerve on fire, but he refused to back down. Weakness threatened to overtake him, but he fought against it. Determined, he reached down, fingers brushing against the cold metal of the knife tucked at his side. With a quick movement, he pulled it free, the steel glinting in the dim light, and plunged it straight into Damian’s knee.Damian's grip on him slackened as he let out a harsh, guttural groan, staggering back from the blow. His eyes widened with shock and pain, disbelief flashing across his face.As Damian pulled away, Luca stumbled, his own strength slipping away. He sank to the ground, knees hitting the dirt before his entire body gave in. Exhausted and injured, he collapsed onto his stomach, blood trickling slowly from the corner of his mouth, staining the dirt beneath him.“Luca!” Cathrine’s voice sliced through the darkness. She ran towards him, fear woven into every step, her gaze f
Dennis plunged downward, all his strength directed into the fierce strike, his sole intention to drive the knife into Luca. But Luca reacted fast, his hands shooting up to catch Dennis’s wrists, and for a moment, the two men were locked in a desperate struggle.Dennis pressed down harder, his muscles straining as he bore his weight into the blade, pushing it mere inches above Luca’s chest. Luca gritted his teeth, fighting back with all his might, but he was starting to weaken under Dennis’s unyielding force. The blade wavered, inching closer to his heart with each passing second. The struggle between them was silent but filled with deadly intent, the air thick with the tension of a battle that could end in a heartbeat.But then, from the corner of his eye, Dennis noticed Cathrine edging closer. Her presence disrupted his focus, breaking his concentration for just a moment. Seizing the opportunity, Dennis tore himself free from Luca and turned on Cathrine with cold intent. Without a se
They were under attack. The warning came in a blare of trumpets that echoed through the air. Before Cathrine could fully grasp what was happening, the crowd erupted into chaos, with people scattering in every direction, fleeing as fast as their legs could carry them.Cathrine watched in confusion, her eyes darting around, taking in the frenzied scene. Her heart pounded, her mind reeling as she tried to understand why everyone was running. But amid the terror, one thing caught her attention and brought her a strange sense of relief: Luca’s execution had been interrupted. Even the executioner, who only moments before had stood ready to take Luca’s life, had dropped his weapon and joined the panicked crowd, desperate to escape whatever threat loomed over them all.She glanced toward the royal platform and spotted the king himself, hurriedly making his way through the grand hallway that stretched toward his private chambers. She saw him disappear into the shadows, likely seeking refuge wi
Just then, Dylan walked toward her, trying to put on his most sincere expression. He thought comforting her would be the best way to win her over, to become the person she would turn to for solace. But he didn’t realize that her heart had already been taken—taken by Luca, the very man he had just betrayed. He stepped closer, moving with careful intent, and placed a comforting hand on her shoulder. The touch seemed to break something within her. Catherine turned to him, her eyes blazing, and slapped him across the face. “You monster! How could you let them take Luca away?” she yelled, her voice trembling with fury. Dylan winced but tried to keep his composure. "Catherine, calm down. It’s not what you think. It’s… it’s not my fault,” he stammered, clearly rattled by her rage. "How is it not your fault?” Catherine screamed, pushing him back as her fists pounded against his chest, fueled by raw anger and pain. "It’s not my fault, Catherine!" Dylan shouted back, finally losing his pati
“Interesting. So, who’s this wolf you say was spotted at the warehouse?” Orchard’s voice was calm, yet a glint of intrigue sparkled in his eyes as he turned to Dylan. The tension in the room was thick, and everyone seemed to lean in slightly, awaiting the response.“His name is Luca,” Dylan replied. “And… he’s in the palace.”Orchard’s expression shifted, his lips pressing into a thin line. He wasted no time, turning to face two guards who stood stationed nearby, their faces tense and alert.“Go find him,” Orchard ordered, his tone hard and unforgiving. “Dylan, you’ll show them exactly where this wolf is hiding. Catch him. Bring him to me—alive.” The last word echoed through the room, cold and sharp. The guards nodded, a flicker of determination in their eyes as they followed Dylan.*************Meanwhile, Luca sat silently, his eyes fixed on the bathroom door as he waited for Cathrine. The minutes stretched out like hours, each one slower than the last. He could hear the faint sound
"It's because I love you, Cathrine," Luca finally admitted, his voice trembling with emotion as the words spilled out. He stepped closer to her, his gaze intense and unrelenting. "I love you. I always have."Cathrine’s breath caught in her throat, her heart skipping a beat at his confession. She blinked, trying to process his words. He loves me? It was a surprise—one she hadn’t anticipated. For so long, she had suppressed her own feelings, burying them beneath the weight of everything else happening around them. She liked him too, but she had always kept it within her, hidden beneath layers of doubt and uncertainty.“I know it may sound strange because I’m not your mate, but…” Luca’s voice faltered, as if the next words were too difficult to say.Before he could finish his sentence, Cathrine acted on impulse. She closed the gap between them, crashing her lips against his with an urgency that took them both by surprise. She kissed him fiercely, silencing whatever hesitation had lingere
Cathrine’s footsteps echoed in the dark as she approached them, her eyes glowing, burning with a rage that couldn’t be contained. Her body moved with purpose, each step filled with the promise of destruction.One of the men, clearly the bravest or the most foolish of the group, raised his gun, aiming directly at her. His finger barely touched the trigger when Cathrine blurred into motion. In a heartbeat, she closed the distance between them, grabbing the gun from his hands and crushing it as if it were made of plastic. The man’s eyes widened in shock, disbelief etched on his face. He hadn’t even had time to process what happened before her fist connected with his jaw. The force of the blow sent him stumbling backward, his balance lost as he crashed to the ground.The other men stood frozen for a moment, shock rippling through them like a wave. But shock quickly turned to anger. They charged at her, their expressions twisted in fury, but it was a mistake. These men didn’t stand a chanc
