LOGINMia Heather’s POV
“Promise that this love would last forever,Bladen?”
“I promise and when i turn eighteen, i would make you my mate and my Luna.”
His words echoed in my head and the pain and betrayal i felt tore deep into my skin, creating wounds i was not sure would ever heal.
Males are liars.
But my father is not.
He was right about Bladen from the day i came back from training, prancing around from my inner wolf’s elation-i just found my soul mate.
“There is no way your soul mate is the heir to the Blood Moon Pack, he would never get married to you. You are just the healer’s daughter. You are nobody.”
I was so clouded with my love for Bladen since that day that i ignored reality.
The way our purs fit together whenever we are walking hand in hand, the nights when we wold sit together and watch the full moon and the conversations we had about how we would soend the rest of our lives together, ruling over Blood Moon Pack.
Everything was a lie.
“Who is there?”
I heard a deep male voice that brought me back into reality. I rubbed my eyes to clear out the fog of tears that hovered it and looked around.
These trees were not familiar. The soil her ewas drier that the ones i know. The pines were crooked.
I moved back, trying to know my location and my leg slipped on a branch, making a racket.
“Again, who is there? Show your face or we will attack.”
My mouth started deying out and my hands and legs were having tremors. I was scared.
“Hel-lo.”
I tried so hard to force words out of my mouth.
“Who is it?”
The voice became louder, the person was closer to me.
I squinted my eyes, trying to see through the ghick plants but there was no wolf around, not even a silhouette.
“My name is Mia Heather and i think i am lost.”
“What Pack do you belong to?”
The voice was farther now, as if the person talking was moving.
I did not know if the question was a trap or if it was equivalent. What if they were rivals to the Blood Moon Pack?
“Are you dumb now?”
“I-i am from the blood moon pack.”
“Thought as much. Wolves from that pack are always weak and faint hearted.”
There was a loud roar overhead and i saw a dark motorcycle landing beside me, making my heart leap.
Before i could pricess what just just happened, three other motorcycles deove towards me, turning different styles before parking close to me.
The lights from the accelerated motorcycles were enough to create lumination and see who were around.
Four men.
The first man had a blind fold on one eye and tattoos of something that looked like a snake rounded his neck. His leather jacket was buttoned open.
The second man had a very prominent scar on his lip, his eyes were closed with glasses and he was shirtless, his whole chest filled with ink marks.
Man number three looked less scary but the twi of his front teeth were missing and his smile was very creepy.
The last man had his hair in a ounk style, a tattoo on his right arm and his leg was amputated.
One thing was common in all of them, they were all on bikes, bikers.
“Mia Heather, how did you end up in a place like this? A terrain meant only for Rogues.”
I swallowed hard. I have only read about Rogues in my father’s medical books.
They looked scarier in real life.
“I guess i missed my way. I was roaming around.”
“Roaming? Why would a naive pup like you be roaming out in the wild this late?”
“Naive? Do not dare call me naive! And i am not young! I turn eighteen today. I am here because i cried through the paths while running, i probably missed my route.”
“I know natives of the Blood Moon Pack are soft but not to the point of crying. Why were you crying?”
“My supposed mate got married to another woman tonight.”
“Oh, so sad! But maybe you can make yourself feel better by masturbating to the thought of how they would mate. I heard that this mating season would be with so much heat, many wolves from dar and wide are around.”
“You are so mean! I am going back!”
“Back to where? A place that rejected you? The moon is down, you would never find the right path without proper lighting. You might even end up dead before tomorrow.”
“So what am i going to do here?”
“Let us discuss about it.”
They formed a circle, backing me with their motorcycles. The distance between them and i was not much and my wolf hearing could pick up almost everything they were saying.
“What if she is a spy?”
“Why would they send a female spy? Plus she is kind of stupid to be a spy.”
“What if we mate with her?”
“Nah, she is pure and raw blood. We might not enjoy it!”
“True! So what do we do to her?”
“We can trade her to the other rogues, they can taje her in as a slave.”
Their conversation was making me more uncomfortable and i put a stop to it.
“Um, do you guys know that i can hear you clearly?”
They turned to me and gasped.
“Oh! Sorry about that. We forgot that pure breeds have good sense of hearing. How can you be of good help to us,Mia?”
“I am a trained healer.”
They turned around and started talking to each other, whispering this time but i could still hear them.
“Healer? What if she can help Loren with his injuries?”
“Who is Loren”
“He is family and you must help his injuries heal, he is in a really bad state.”
“And what if i don’t?”
“We will kill you and eat you. Not a threat, you have probably heard a lot about Rogues.”
Mia’s POVMorning came softly.No alarms.No screams.No ancient voice calling my name.Just sunlight.Warm sunlight spilling across the valley.I opened my eyes.For a moment, I didn’t know where I was.Then I remembered.The new world.The river.The village.Kael.Lyra.The Witness.The Crown.Everything.I sat up slowly.For so long, waking up had meant preparing for something.A battle.A prophecy.A decision.A loss.But this morning—there was nothing to prepare for.I smiled.I was free.I walked toward the river.The village was already beginning to wake.Smoke rose from the first few houses.People moved between them.Children ran through the grass.Someone was laughing.Someone else was arguing.A woman was carrying a basket of flowers.A man was trying to build something that looked like a table and failing miserably.It was imperfect.It was noisy.It was alive.And it was beautiful.“Mia.”I turned.Kael was walking toward me.He looked different.Not physically.But som
Mia’s POVNight came quietly.That was the strangest part.No warning.No darkness swallowing the sky.No ancient voice announcing the end of another world.Just night.The first night of our world.I sat beside the river, watching the stars appear one by one.Kael sat beside me.Lyra had fallen asleep a short distance away.For the first time, none of us were afraid to close our eyes.I looked at the sky.“Do you think it’s really over?”Kael was quiet for a moment.“Yes.”I smiled.“You sound very sure.”“I’ve watched you break the impossible too many times.”I laughed softly.“That’s not an answer.”“It is for me.”I looked at him.He was staring at the stars.Then he said,“But I don’t think we’re alone.”My smile disappeared.“I know.”The heartbeat returned.Thump.Thump.Thump.The stars stopped moving.Every single one of them froze.Kael stood.“Mia.”I rose slowly.The air around us changed.Not darkness.Not light.Something in between.The river stopped flowing.The trees
Mia’s POVFor the first time, there was no road ahead of us.No golden path.No ancient doorway.No voice telling me where to go.Just grass beneath my feet and an endless horizon.I stood there for a long moment.Waiting.For something to happen.For the sky to crack.For the darkness to return.For someone to tell me what came next.Nothing happened.Kael looked at me.“You’re waiting for something.”I smiled faintly.“I think I’m used to everything going wrong.”He stepped beside me.“Maybe nothing is supposed to go wrong.”I looked at him.“How do we know?”“We don’t.”His answer surprised me.Then he smiled.“And that’s the point.”Lyra walked ahead of us.She stopped beside a small hill and looked down at the empty valley.“We really are the first people here.”I looked around.The thought was overwhelming.There were no kingdoms.No packs.No wars.No ancient bloodlines.No prophecies.No enemies waiting in the shadows.Nothing had happened here yet.This world had no history.
Mia’s POVThe first thing I noticed was the silence.Not the terrifying silence I had known before.Not the silence that came before destruction.This silence was different.Peaceful.Almost unfamiliar.I opened my eyes.A blue sky stretched above me.Real clouds moved slowly across it.The grass beneath my hands was soft.I sat up.For several seconds, I simply stared.No golden light.No Crown.No darkness.No voices.Nothing.I touched my chest.My heart was beating normally.Thump.Thump.I smiled.I was alive.“Mia.”I turned.Kael was sitting a few feet away.He looked just as confused as I felt.His sword was gone.I stared at his empty hands.“You don’t have your sword.”He looked down.“I noticed.”A laugh escaped me.It was small.But it felt strange.I couldn’t remember the last time I had laughed without something terrible happening afterward.Kael stood.He looked around.“Where are we?”“I don’t know.”Lyra suddenly sat up behind us.She looked at the sky.Then at the gr
Mia’s POVI heard the heartbeat again.Thump.Thump.Thump.It wasn’t coming from me.It wasn’t coming from Kael.It was coming from everything.The Beginning.The worlds.The darkness.The light.All of it.The shattered pieces of the Crown floated around me like golden stars.I reached for one.The moment my fingers touched it, a thousand voices screamed inside my head.I saw worlds.Millions of them.Some were beautiful.Some were broken.Some had never existed long enough to become anything at all.And in every world—There was a Mia.A different face.A different life.A different choice.But the same ending.Failure.I pulled my hand away.“No…”A voice answered me.“YES.”I looked up.The First Hunger was still there.But it had changed.The enormous eyes were no longer hidden behind darkness.Its entire form was beginning to emerge.It was larger than anything I had ever seen.Larger than the First Will.Larger than the Unmade.It felt like staring at the space between existen
Mia’s POVI couldn’t move.She looked exactly like me.Same face.Same eyes.Same voice.But there was something different about her.She didn’t carry the uncertainty I felt.She didn’t look afraid.She looked like someone who already knew how everything would end.Kael stepped in front of me.His sword came up.“Stay behind me.”The other Mia smiled.“You still do that.”Kael froze.I looked at him.“You know her?”He shook his head.“No.”The other Mia laughed softly.“You don’t remember me.”Kael’s grip tightened around his sword.“I’ve never seen you before.”“You have.”She stepped forward.The space between us cracked.“You just don’t remember.”Lyra moved beside Kael.“What are you?”The other Mia looked at her.“I am what she was before she became what she is now.”My stomach dropped.“What does that mean?”She looked at me.“You were supposed to remember.”“I remember enough.”“No.”Her smile disappeared.“You remember what they allowed you to remember.”The Crown inside my c
Mia’s POV Morning came too quickly.I barely slept.Everytime I closed my eyes, I was back at the overlook, standing beside Loren with the city lights below us and his voice is too steady, too honest, saying things I had been trying hard not to think about.When something happens, you are the firs
Alpha Bladen’s POV“So what happened this time?”My face was stern but also pitiful. I was expecting a good reply from the face her was, i could tell that it was not going to be a good response.“The doctors are not sure but they baby is gone.”Her face was pale, like she just came out of a fight a
Mia Heather’s POVThe heavy scent of exhaust pipes and leather hit my nostrils as i got up from the hatch that was provided for me to sleep in.I rubbed my eyes, getting myself to be fully awake and watching the solid flakes fall off from my eyes.I cried myself to sleep and the migraines i woke up
Alpha Bladen’s POV“So tonight, you would tower over me with your erected man inside of me, taking control of my wet floors and rough walls?”“What a weird way to describe mating.”“Do you know what is weirder?”“What?”“The fact that your pack invited us over four hundred kilometers and they expec
