«CLARA POV»

Adrian stopped instantly on his track upon the hear of my voice, but he didn't turn back to look at me.

The battlefield was a mess. Bodies of warriors—both rogues and Dark Howl pack members lay scattered across the blood-stained ground.

The air smelled of sweat, blood, and death.

The fight had gone on for hours and had been brutal, but I knew the truth. Adrian had the upper hand.

His pack was stronger. His warriors were still plentiful and well-trained. If he had wanted to, he could have crushed us completely.

So why?

Why didn’t he fight me?

But he didn’t.

And that enraged me.

I took a step forward, my chest rising and falling with deep, angry breaths. My eyes locked on hunched back as I shouted, “What’s the matter, Alpha Adrian?! Are you truly scared of me?”

Adrian didn't turn and didn't show any sign of reaction. He remained steady, unaffected.

That only fueled my bitterness.

I wanted him to fight me. I wanted him to hate me enough to strike me down, to show me I wa

    «ADRIAN POV»The Dark Howl Pack was quiet now. My warriors had pulled back, and the rogues had begun retreating as well. But I remained frozen in place in the building where I hid, I hadn't fully left, and my red eyes centered on Clara’s fading figure.My mate… my beautiful mate. I could have fought her. I could have taken her down. But I didn’t.Not because of guilt. Not because of pain.But because of what I smelled.It was faint, mixed with the the the stench of blood and cinnamon, but unmistakable.She was pregnant.I clenched my hands, my chest tightened painfully.Clara was pregnant with Pups.She was carrying someone else’s children.I couldn’t breathe for a moment. The realization hit me harder than any blow ever had.I had spent months drowning in regret, believing the Moon Goddess had punished me by taking my mate away. I had thought Clara was dead, and that I killed her.But she didn't die.She was alive. Thriving. She'd moved on. And now, she carried another man’s pups.

    «CLARA POV»Everything is happening so fast.One moment, I am in the car, struggling to breathe through the sharp pain in my belly. The next, I am being wheeled into the Rogue Hospital, my vision blurring from the sweat dripping down my face. My body trembles uncontrollably.Pain rips through me, making it impossible to think clearly. My clothes cling to my skin, soaked in sweat.I barely notice the rogue nurses around me as they wheel me through the hospital wards. My stomach cramps painfully, and I let out a sharp cry, my hand gripping Brandon’s arm tightly.“Clara, just hold on a little longer,” Brandon says, his voice filled with worry.I want to answer him, but I can’t. The pain is too much. It feels like my body is being torn apart.Brandon bites his lips, and then he says with struggle, as if he can't bear to leave me alone, “I will be right back, Clara. I just need you to keep holding on.”Before I can muster a word, he is already marching out of the ward. The nurses bow and g

    «ADRIAN POV» I lock myself in my office for days, drowning in paperwork, trying to distract myself from the storm raging in my mind. But no matter how hard I work, I can’t escape the memory of seeing Clara again—standing before me, stronger than ever, leading an army of rogues against my pack. And then, the worst part. She is pregnant. With Lusaka’s pups. The thought sends a sharp pain through my chest. I tell myself I don’t care, that I have moved on too. But deep down, I feel… betrayed. Has she really loved me at all? Has she already known Lusaka before I banished her? Or has she run into his arms the moment she left? I hate these thoughts. I don’t want to believe she cheated on me when she was still my Luna. But the questions won’t stop. I clench my jaw and push those thoughts away. Now isn’t the time to dwell on the past. My pack is in danger. The calamity that started with Dark Howl is spreading fast, and the other packs—both neighboring and far away—ar

    «ADRIAN POV» Alpha Bennet’s face pales. His body jerks back, and he staggers before crashing into his seat. His throat bobs as he gulps hard, his arrogance disappearing in an instant. The courtroom is silent for a moment. Then, like a pack of hungry wolves, the other Alphas pounce. “Alpha Adrian, Bennet is right. Clara should have been executed the moment she was found guilty of being the wolf cursed by the Moon Goddess!” one barks, slamming his fist on the table. “This is all your fault, Adrian!” another accuses, his voice harsh with anger. “You spared her, and now look at what she has become—the Queen of Rogues!” A murmur of agreement spreads across the room. I sit still, my face unreadable, my hands still clenched into fists beneath the table. I let them speak. I let them spew their rage. “She attacks our packs!” a deep voice roars. “She takes our land! Steals from our people! My warriors died at the hands of those damn rogues she commands!” “And if that wasn’t eno

    «ADRIAN POV» The pack witch turns to the elders, addressing them like I’m not even in the room. “I ask you all,” she continues, “how long will we let this calamity destroy us while we wait for an Alpha who refuses to act?” Whispers erupt around the room. Some of the council members nod in agreement. Others hesitate, their gazes glancing toward me. She stands and takes a step forward. “Our packs are suffering, just like the rest of the other packs too. Our people are dying. Yet our Alpha,” she pauses, her lips curling, “hesitates.” I clench my fists. She turns to face me directly, her eyes filled with false concern. “This is not an easy decision, Adrian, I understand that,” she says, her voice low but loud enough for everyone to hear. “But an Alpha must make sacrifices for the good of his pack.” I stare at her silently, but deep inside, I know what she’s doing. She wants me to crumble. To break. To give in and accept Clara’s death as the only way to keep my title

    A faint smirk appears on the side of my mouth as I drum my fingers playfully on the table while watching them display their foolishness. “Come on, Adrian,” Ryan quickly walks back to my side, speaking with urgency. “For goddess fuckin’ sake, say something,” he mutters through gritted teeth, his voice tight with anger. However, I remain quiet, my cold eyes calculating as I observe the council while they drown in their own feat. I let the weight of the moment sink in. I look intently at Uncle Marcus, then at Andromeda, then at the elders who have stood by my side for years… And now? They have all turned their backs on me, and I immediately feel something churn inside me… Something that makes me question everything. The prophecy. Clara. Is it even real, or have I been played all along? Is Clara really the curse, or is the real curse sitting right in front of me? A slow, bitter realization settles deep in my bones. I have been lied to, and that has made me betray my mate.

    «ADRIAN POV»The court meeting is over. The Alphas have returned to their packs, and the council of elders has left, but their words still echo in my head. They want Clara dead. I step out of the courtroom, taking a deep breath as the cool evening breeze hits my face. My feet carry me toward the village town, away from the suffocating weight of politics and betrayals. As I look around my pack, I see the destruction spreading. The once-thriving land looks cursed. Burnt patches of earth stretch across the territory. Houses are cracking, falling apart. The air smells of smoke and decay. The people pause when they see me, and I feel their cold stares. Some talk among themselves. Others turn away, as if my presence disgusts them. I know why. Someone has told them about my decision in the courtroom. Someone has twisted the truth, making me look weak, like a traitor to my pack. Making it seem like I’m not concerned about their well-being. My suspicion leads to Andromeda and M

Something that hurt.“She poisoned your mother,” he said. “She planned it with Andromeda too… so she could take her place beside your father.”My chest tightened.The air felt thin.“No,” I whispered. “That can’t be true…”But deep inside… I knew it was.All the times Tiara talked badly about my deceased mother. The cold looks. How fast Tiara married my father. How fast she made me feel like I didn’t belong.She hated me. She hated my mother.And she did it.She took her away from me! Tiara was my mother's omega servant. But her greed to climb her made her kill my mother and she took over her place. I slowly looked down at Tiara again. She was groaning now, still crying. Her face was covered in blood and dirt. But there was no guilt in her eyes. Only fear. Only disdain.She didn’t regret what she did.She was only scared because she got caught.I didn’t feel bad for her. I didn’t feel anything except one thing. Anger.

For a moment, no one said a word.The silence was loud.Lusaka’s eyes blinked in confusion. Ravenanna’s mouth was wide open, like she had seen something shocking. "Clara… y-you… Adrian…” Only then did I realize how close I was to Adrian. My hands were still on his back. My body pressed against his.It looked... wrong.I hurriedly stepped away as if I’d been caught doing something I shouldn’t. I pulled away fast, my face burning with heat. Then walked quickly to Lusaka’s side.“It’s not what it you think, Lusaka,” I quickly try to explain, my words stumbling out. “W-we were just talking, that’s all.”Ravenanna glance between me and Adrian, still quiet, and suspicious.

    «CLARA’s POV»Adrian didn’t say a word, he simply just held my hand. And, I didn’t stop him.I know I should have pulled away. I should’ve reminded him of the distance we needed. He has a Luna, and I have a husband. Plus, I also wanted to remind him of the cruel way he rejected me. But right now, none of that mattered. His hand was warm. It felt real. Steady. And a little broken, just like me.We kept walking.Past the building, past the gardens, then deeper into the woods.I didn’t know where he was taking me. I was quiet at first, but the farther we walked, the darker it got, and the more unsure I became.“Adrian…” I finally spoke up, glancing around at the tall trees and thick shadows. “Where are we going?”The alpha king didn’t stop walking. He didn’t look at me either but he let out a low laugh. “Now you're scared, huh? Don't worry, You’ll see,” he told me. “Just wait until we get there.”I frowned, unsure if I should be scared or curious. Maybe both. We kept going. The woods

    «CLARA’s POV»I ran into the pack mansion, ignoring the way my heart thudded in my chest like it wanted to break free. My boots echoed loudly against the staircases, each step rushed, each breath tight.“Adrian!” I called, but no one answered. My voice bounced against the empty walls, hollow and small.Where was he?I ran down the hallway, pushing open doors, turning corners too fast. Panic clawed at my chest the more I searched. My eyes darted around wildly—everywhere I searched, he wasn’t there.“Where is he?” I muttered under my breath, stopping in the middle of the hallway. My hands flew to my hair, tugging at it in frustration. I didn’t even know what I would say when I found him—I just knew I had to find him.Defeated, I turned to head back and then… I slammed right into something solid.Fuck! My head hit it hard and I hissed in pain, stumbling backward.“Ugh! What the hell—”But my voice died in my throat.It wasn’t a wall, it was a chest. A broad, warm chest.I blinked, start

Meanwhile, Marcus lay flat on the ground outside the hall, bleeding and barely breathing. His once-proud wolf form now looked weak, trembling and broken. Blood soaked into the dirt beneath him, and his fur was ripped in many places. “Haha, scared to kill me?” He growled lowly, his voice full of tease, but the sound held no strength.“I want to torture you so hard you'd beg for death before I kill you, Marcus…” Magnus stood tall above him. His body was huge, muscles stretched tight with rage. His eyes glowed gold, wild and burning with fury. His chest rose and fell heavily, breath coming in rough puffs. He wanted to kill. To end this. To rip Marcus apart just as Marcus had done to his father! He lowered his head, lips pulling back to reveal long, deadly teeth.One bite. That’s all it w

He took a slow step back, like he couldn’t believe what he was seeing.The other alphas standing beside him also started backing away. Their proud faces turned pale, and their bodies tensed as if danger had just entered the hall. Disbelief was written on their faces. Clara noticed their sudden change. Confused, she looked from one alpha to another. Why were they scared of Adrian so intensely? Could something have happened before they attacked the Dark Howl pack? Something she didn’t know yet… Andromeda, who always looked calm and full of control, suddenly snapped. “This can’t happen!” she shouted, her eyes sharp with anger and shock as she rushed toward Adrian. “How did you get out of the silver chains?!” Clara gasped loudly, her eyes jumping to Adrian. “Silver chains?” she whispered to herself in disbelief.

My bullet tore through her shoulder before she could move. She screamed, collapsing against the wall. "YOU CRAZY—""Next one goes between your eyes," I said calmly. "Talk." Lusaka eyess widened in realization and he stormed forward, his claws out. "Who else knew?" Jasmine's bloody grin was answer enough. "Too late." Shit. We'd walked right into a trap! Before I could reply, another voice entered the hall.“Well, well, well…”Magnus.He walked in with slow, confident steps like he owned the world.
