Forsaken by the Alpha CHAPTER 77: WHAT THE PACK FELT
Silvermoon had not returned to normal after the pursuit began.It only became quieter.And somehow, that felt worse.The castle corridors no longer carried their usual rhythm. Conversations lowered when footsteps approached. Servants moved carefully, eyes avoiding one another for too long.Because everyone had heard it.That howl.Even those who did not understand what it meant had felt what it did to the pack.The full moon still hung above Silvermoon, pale light spilling through the high windows of the eastern hall. Shadows stretched long across the stone floor, restless beneath flickering torchlight.Near the servant wing, whispers moved faster than orders.“They said the dungeon bars were damaged—”“No first-shift should have that kind of strength—”“She escaped past the lower grounds—”“Was it really her?”Maela turned sharply toward the younger servants.“That’s enough.”The girls immediately lowered their heads.Maela rarely raised her voice.Which made it worse when she did.O
Forsaken by the Alpha CHAPTER 76: THE PURSUIT
The forest beyond Silvermoon did not sleep.It listened.Every branch held a memory of movement. Every patch of earth carried scent trails that were already fading, shifting, rewriting themselves under the pressure of the full moon.And now—Silvermoon was moving into it.Not as chaos.As structure.At the front line, Damian moved without hesitation.The cloak around his shoulders caught against the wind, but he did not slow. His presence alone changed the rhythm of the wolves behind him. No one spoke unless necessary. No one broke formation.This was not a search.It was a pursuit.Liam moved slightly behind and to the side, eyes scanning the terrain as he spoke in low, controlled intervals.“Three tracking lines deployed north-west. Two cutting south ridge. Perimeter widening every five minutes.”Damian didn’t look at him.“Any scent lock?”“Not stable,” Liam replied. “It’s… fragmented.”That made Damian’s jaw tighten slightly.Fragmented meant movement without pattern.Instinct with
Forsaken by the Alpha CHAPTER 75: THE PACK RESPONDS
The alarm did not sound like war.It sounded like interruption.A break in order.And in Silvermoon, that was more dangerous than violence.Within minutes, the lower corridors of the castle shifted into controlled movement. Wolves moved with precision, not panic—armor adjusted, routes assigned, tracking formations prepared.But beneath it all, something restless lingered.Not confusion.Instability.Liam stood over the stone table marked with the forest grid, already issuing commands.“West ridge sealed. East corridor remains open for tracking units only. No one crosses the southern boundary without clearance.”A guard nodded quickly and moved.Another stepped forward.“Beta… the southern border units are reacting.”Liam’s eyes lifted.“Define reacting.”The guard hesitated.“The newly turned wolves. They’re unstable. Pacing, agitation, loss of control in some cases.”Liam’s expression sharpened slightly.“Contain them,” he said firmly. “Keep formation tight. Do not let instinct overr
Forsaken by the Alpha CHAPTER 74: AFTERMATH OF SILENCE
The silence after the escape did not feel empty.It felt wrong.Like the castle itself was holding its breath and refusing to release it.Damian stood in his study without moving for a long time, eyes fixed on nothing in particular. The air around him was still, but the tension inside it was not.Liam closed the door behind him quietly.Neither of them spoke at first.Because speaking meant accepting what had just happened.And neither of them had fully done that yet.Then Liam finally broke the silence.“You shouldn’t have confined her like that.”The words were not loud.But they landed heavily.Damian didn’t react immediately.His gaze remained steady, but something behind it tightened.“She was unstable,” Damian said finally.Liam exhaled slowly, shaking his head once.“No,” he replied. “We called it instability because we didn’t understand it.”That made the air shift slightly.Damian’s jaw tightened.Liam continued anyway.“She wasn’t acting out of control,” he said. “She was sh
Forsaken by the Alpha CHAPTER 73: MOONLIT AND THE ALPHA
“…The servant girl.”The words settled heavily into the corridor.For a moment, no one moved.Then Damian turned sharply toward the confinement wing.Fast.Controlled.The guards immediately stepped aside as he passed.Liam followed close behind, tension already tightening across his expression.Another low growl echoed faintly from deeper below.Not human.Not entirely wolf either.Something between restraint and instinct.The deeper they moved into the lower confinement corridor, the more obvious the damage became.Claw marks carved deeply into the stone walls.Broken cracks spreading through the floor.Bent iron bars.One of the torch brackets had been torn completely from the wall and now hung crookedly beside the cell entrance.Silence filled the corridor again afterward.Heavy.Contained.Like the danger inside the confinement chamber had merely paused to breathe.Then Damian saw her.And stopped.The wolf stood at the far end of the cell beneath the fractured shaft of moonlight
Forsaken by the Alpha CHAPTER 72: BELOW THE CASTLE
The second howl did not fade quietly.It dragged itself through the castle halls like something alive, slipping beneath doors, curling around stone corridors, unsettling every wolf that heard it.Then silence followed.Not peaceful silence.Waiting silence.Alpha Damian stopped at the center of the western corridor, his gaze fixed toward the lower grounds beneath the castle.The air felt wrong.Heavy.Charged with something unfamiliar.Behind him, Liam slowed as well, his expression tightening faintly.“That wasn’t normal,” Liam said quietly.Damian said nothing.His wolf had been restless since the first howl.Now it was alert.Awake in a way that unsettled him more than he cared to admit.A faint pressure tightened beneath the wolf sigil spread across his chest.Once.Then again.Not pain.Recognition.His jaw tightened immediately.No wolf in Silvermoon should have sounded like that.Not from the lower confinement.Another distant sound echoed faintly below.Not a howl this time.M
Forsaken by the Alpha CHAPTER 68: BECOMING
Selene woke up like she had been dragged out of something deep.For a moment, she didn’t know where she was.Cold stone.Low light.The smell of damp air and iron.Then memory returned all at once and her body tensed sharply.The lower chamber.Confinement.She sat up too fast and immediately regre
Forsaken by the Alpha CHAPTER 67: BEFORE THE MOON RISES
The lower chambers were colder at night.Selene realized that almost immediately after the iron door shut behind her.The sound echoed heavily through the narrow stone corridor before silence settled again, thick and unmoving. One torch burned weakly outside the chamber bars, its dim light barely r
Forsaken by the Alpha CHAPTER 71: THE FIRST SHIFT
Silence did not return after the crack in her bones. It deepened.Selene stayed on the floor, but her body no longer belonged to stillness.It shifted on its own. Weight redistributed, balance corrected, posture lowered without instruction.Not human adjustment. Animal alignment.Her breathing chan
Forsaken by the Alpha CHAPTER 69: WHEN THE MOON FINDS HER
The chamber had become too small for her breathing.Selene sat curled against the corner of the stone wall, knees pulled tightly to her chest while uneven breaths slipped past her lips. The torch outside the iron bars had long burned lower, its flickering light throwing restless shadows across the
