Masuk~Hyera~At this point, it just feels like Atlas is playing games with me. It’s been long minutes of trying to link our powers, but nothing is working. And I know Luna Lucy warned me—she said it was dangerous, that for some unexplainable reason my powers are forbidden for the Alpha. But I’ve seen what he can do. How many times he’s bent power and time itself. If only he’d take this seriously, maybe we would have already linked our powers. I’m giving it my all, but all he does is mess around with me. “Ah!” I sigh, glaring at him. “Atlas, come on… it’s been hours now.” He shrugs casually. “Well then, I hope you’ve seen for yourself now that your idea is pointless.” “No, it’s not!” I snap, rolling my eyes. “You just don’t want to do it.” He looks at me, his eyes soft. It hurts to see him look at me with admiration, like he’s enjoying watching me struggle. I take a deep breath and sink to the ground, completely letting myself collapse like I’m tired of life. “What are you d

~Atlas’s POV~ Silver. Silver. Silver… I never imagined we would get to this point—the point where I no longer hated her presence… but actually wanted it more. And it’s not because she’s gone from that cowering girl to a confident, successful healer. It’s simply because I’ve gotten to know her more. Months of being trapped with her in the worst situations possible have answered some of the burning questions I had about her. It turns out, she’s as pure as she appears. We haven’t gotten closer… but in my mind’s eye, she’s different. And when she fired back at the interviewers yesterday—intelligent, confident… it turned me on. I couldn’t help but kiss her sweet lips. The more I come in contact with her skin, the more I want to claim her. She’s filled with so much hunger that I want to satisfy, to fill with nothing but my presence so she keeps coming back to me. “Oh Max!” she exclaims, jumping into his arms. She holds him tight as he breathes her in, his eyes closed. That’s m
Several Weeks Later BREAKING NEWS: Silver, Queen of the CrescentMoon Pack, has been praised across the kingdoms for risking her life alongside Alpha Atlas to tackle the deadly plague. Their courage and sacrifice saved thousands of lives, earning them recognition as heroes of the realm. My cheeks flush as I watch the news unfold. Every single day it’s a new headline about how Atlas and I were able to save the villages and even several other packs. I’ve quickly gained so much recognition in the kingdom it’s almost unbelievable. I used to be a servant, a lowly servant who was scorned and deeply hated by an entire pack. My mates rejected me for being an Omega. But how quickly things could change. I’m not only the wife of the most powerful Alpha but also a recognized healer, known, respected, and cherished all over the kingdom. It happened so fast I can’t even process it. When I look at myself in the mirror, I don’t see that weak, fragile girl anymore. I feel confident… powerful, l
We spent the last couple of hours examining, documenting, and going through tests with the doctors and scientists. We were not able to find out what this animal was or how it infects people without attacking them. But the good news is, we were able to find a temporary solution to the problem. We can’t find a cure yet, not until we know exactly what we are dealing with. But using our abilities and the knowledge of the scientists, we were able to create a vaccine that can slow down the process. It wasn’t easy. Atlas is completely drained because we had to use his scent to create the temporary medicines and vaccines while still searching for how it happened. I’m happy, excited even, that the people are in the process of recovering. Lucy and Rhett are outside creating a strong shield that will wade off the dark energy and fog, and at the same time prevent the infection from ever coming in again. But still, my heart is aching. I’ve always been curious about what my wolf is. I’ve
His scent fills the air, wrapping around me like a warm blanket on a cold night. I feel closer to him than I’ve ever felt. My eyes snap open. “You’re awake!” Rhett exclaims, smiling. My eyes land on the man holding my hand, and they pop open wider in surprise. “Uh… w-what happened to me?” I ask, feigning ignorance. I don’t know what’s going on. I don’t understand why Atlas is sitting beside me on the bed, holding my hand as his scent covers me. I feel it deeply in my core—his touch is extracting something from me, and his scent is healing me. “You passed out,” Rhett says. “Why are you holding my hand?” I ask, acting like I don’t like it. No, not like I like it in that sense. What I mean is, his touch, even through with the protective gloves, is soothing and healing. “I’m extracting the infection,” he says, letting go of my hand. “Son—” “No, Father,” Atlas cuts him off. “She is good enough. I don’t need to get everything out of her. I warned her anyway.” Oh. S
~Hyera~“Hyera!” A beastly guttural voice snaps me out of sleep.“Oh my God!” I gasp, my chest rising and falling, eyes wide in stunned disbelief. “Luna!” Aimi exclaims, jumping to her feet. “You’re finally awake!” She rushes to give me a drink. “What happened to me?” I ask, brows pinched as I
~Atlas’s POV~For the first time in so many years, I feel closer to finding our enemy. It was a quiet evening on my seventh birthday. The pack was filled with excitement as people from different parts of the world gathered to celebrate with me. Everyone felt safe and secure—after all, it was the
~Maximus’s POV~I thought I could do it. I told myself it was just a matter of time she would be free and mine for good. Hyera promised to let me mark her as my mate when the contract ends. I was feeling good about the whole thing… until several hours after we came back home. It’s been almost d
Small footsteps approaching my room jolt me awake. I glance around, my face twisted in confusion. “How did I get here?” I whisper, jumping down from the bed. “How did I get in this nightdress?” I ask, sniffing my body. It smells fresh, perfumed. “I had a bath?” I pace anxiously, trying to rec
