LYRA’S POV

After receiving a hostile reception from Tyris earlier, his unfriendly eyes cutting through me like winter wind through bare branches, I retired to the safe sanctuary of my room to nurse my wounded pride in solitude. The weight of my cursed fate pressed down upon my shoulders like a burial shroud as I contemplated the circumstances that had led me here. My decision to drain that mysterious liquor had been catastrophically foolish, perhaps the most reckless act of my entire existence.

The cruel irony was that my memories of the previous night remained crystal clear, refusing to fade into merciful oblivion as I had desperately hoped they would. Tyris' pained cries echoed through my mind like a mournful lament, while Rockan's expression of profound regret was seared into my consciousness, replaying endlessly like a torturous loop. Shame crept into my heart like an unwelcome visitor, settling in with the bitter familiarity of an old friend who knew all my secrets.

    Bruno’s pov"Arise and shine, my love. We have a busy day ahead of us." Freya's high-pitched voice echoed through my room as she drew my curtains apart, flooding my space with the golden rays of sunlight. After a sleepless night of thinking about Lyra and my harshness toward her, the last thing I wanted to hear was Freya's grating voice. I pressed the pillow to my ears as I turned away from the windows."Oh, come on, Bruno," Freya whined even louder, her voice taking on that petulant tone I'd grown to despise. "You can't just lie there all day feeling sorry for yourself. You have a lot to do between preparation for our mating ceremony and meetings with the pack elders. The Luna expects us to review the guest list by noon, and we still haven't finalized the ceremonial arrangements.""Please, I beg of you, let me be!" I snapped, pressing the pillow even tighter against my ears. "Can't you see I need some peace? Some quiet?""Peace? Quiet?" Freya laughed, the sound sharp and mocking. "Yo

    Tyris PovI had hoped that this little trick of mine was more than enough to tear Rockan and Lyra apart, but I was wrong. I watched in disappointment as she went running to Rockan after she regained consciousness. My blood boiled with jealousy as they professed an undying love for each other and a promise to stick together. I stormed off, angry that my plan had failed. Fury coursed through my veins like liquid fire. My hands trembled with rage as I slammed my bedroom door, the sound reverberated through the corridor like a gunshot, threatening to rattle the windows. The image of Lyra's tender acceptance of Rockan's scars burned in my mind, each action of hers a fresh wound to my already bleeding pride. Despite my perfect face, I had been unable to win the one woman I cherished. "Damn it all to hell!" My roar was no different from that of a deranged beast as my fist connected with the white wall beside me. The impact sent a sharp pain shooting up my arm, but it was nothing compared to

  • In Love With The Scared Alpha    Not as good

    Lyra’s POVThe pack members are gathered on the training ground, staring my parents down with scornful eyes. They knelt there in the dirt, denying every allegation of the coup. Aunt Rosa stood beside Luna Delilah, whispering something into her ear, eyes blazing with malice. “Please, Alpha, believe me, we would never betray you.” My father pleaded desperately. From his groan of pain, I could tell that the silver bane injected into his system had begun to wreak its poisonous effects on his already battered body. I stared at Alpha Luke, hoping he would believe my parents and pardon them. I could feel their innocence deep within my guts. But I was too little to help them. Four-year-old me could only hide in an obscure corner and watch helplessly as the accusations against my parents intensified. “For what you have done, Maximus, you and your mate must be executed.” Alpha Luke proclaimed.“No, not my daddy and mummy,” I sobbed quietly, closing my eyes in anguish as a warrior stepped forw

    Rockan’s PovI had returned to grab a few things I needed before heading to the human side of the realm, where I had a few business meetings. The maids had told me that Lyra was in the garden with Tyris. Suspicious if that cunning brother of mine, I decided to take a look. Instead, I stumbled upon one of his plots to ruin my relationship with Lyra. The venom in my brother’s voice stirred a fury within me, igniting an inferno of emotions I could no longer contain. As Tyris leaned closer to Lyra, planting seeds of doubt in her mind, I felt the sharp sting of betrayal. How could he turn our bond into a weapon against me? The anger boiled over, and before I could think twice, I stepped into the light, determined to confront my brother.“Tyris,” I bellowed, sending shivers down the spine of the Omegas nearby. They scurried away in fear, and Lyra stepped back, shocked. My eyes blazed like golden orbs of fire as rage coursed through my veins. Tyris stared back at me with eyes filled with ma

    Tyris’s PovAs the elders argued about the pack business, I sat, glaring at Rockan, the man who had betrayed me and broken our agreement. Of course, he spared me no glance, only focusing on pack business, emanating an icy aura. He avoided me just as I avoided him, speaking to me only when necessary. From the corner of my eye, it was evident that Lyra stole glances at me. Guilt was apparent in her eyes. I could feel her emotions, and I knew Rockan could too. The knowledge that he will feel her secretly pining for me was enough to put a little smile of triumph on my face. Nevertheless, seeing her seated beside him as his Luna still hurt like hell. Despite my animosity with my brother, I still carried out my duties as his Beta, organizing meetings and ensuring his territories and businesses remain guarded and safe. That still didn't stop me from coming up with ways to hurt him by destroying whatever he was trying to build with my mate. Rockan needed to suffer as much as I am hurting. I

    LYRA’S POVAfter spending time with the younger cubs, doing Luna duties, I finally got to take a breather. Kael had begun digging into the past, and I feared whatever skeletons he might unearth from the depths of secrecy. What if my enemies were right and my parents were indeed traitors? How then would I be able to face them and exact my revenge? How then will I ever make them burn in hell? These questions churned through my mind as I sat by the window watching the sunset paint the sky in a reddish hue. The weight of my emotions pressed down on me like a heavy cloak. I sighed deeply, collapsing into my bed. I stared at the high ceiling, running a frustrated hand through my hair.A knock drew me out of my reverie. “Lyra,” It was Rockan. “May I come in?” His voice was gentle despite its deep baritone. “Yes, you can, I called out, quickly adjusting my rolled-up skirt and straightening my hair. Lyra, why fuss over yourself for a man you saw a couple of hours ago? I chided myself with my
