The creature lunged at me with impossible speed, its claws extended like knives.

I didn't have time to scream.

Ace threw himself between us, taking the full force of the attack. The creature's claws raked across his left arm, tearing through flesh and muscle like paper. Blood sprayed across the forest floor.

"Ace!" The scream tore from my throat as he stumbled backward, crimson streaming down his arm.

But he didn't fall. Instead, he shifted mid-stumble, his human form dissolving into the massive black wolf I'd seen before. The transformation was so fluid, so natural, that for a moment I forgot to be terrified.

The creature whatever it was snarled and circled him. It looked like a wolf, but it was wrong. Too big, too angular, with eyes that glowed sickly yellow and fur that seemed to absorb light rather than reflect it.

Ace lunged forward, his jaws snapping at the thing's throat. They rolled across the forest floor in a tangle of teeth and claws, snarling and snapping at e

  • Luna To Alpha Ace   Chapter 76: Lily

    We moved to the bed still damp, our bodies fitting together perfectly as we had so many times before. My head found its place on his chest, his heartbeat steady under my ear. "I want to come with you," I said into the darkness. His body tensed immediately. "No." "Ace—" "No, Lily. Not." "Why?" "Because it's dangerous. Because I need to focus on the fight, not on keeping you safe." "I can keep myself safe." "Against four Alpha wolves in combat frenzy? I don't think so." I pushed up on my elbow to look at him. "I'm not asking to fight. I'm asking to be there." "Same thing." "No, it's not. I'm asking to be close enough to know you're alive. To be there if..." I couldn't finish the sentence. "If I lose?" "If you get hurt." "I won't." "You can't promise that." "I can promise that having you there will distract me. That knowing you're in danger will make me vulnerable." "And being separated from you makes me vulnerable too." He was quiet for a long moment

  • Luna To Alpha Ace   Chapter 75: Lily

    Three days until the challenge. Three days until the man I loved would face four Alpha wolves in combat that could end his life. I watched from the training room window as Ace worked with the Alpha King ring, his movements becoming more fluid with each passing hour. The ancient power was bonding with him, transforming him into something magnificent and terrifying. But also something that might not come home to me. "He's getting stronger," Marcus said, appearing beside me. "Is it enough?" "It has to be." That wasn't the reassurance I needed. I'd been living on "has to be" for days now, and the uncertainty was eating me alive. Ace moved through the training sequence again, the ring pulsing with dark fire as he channeled its power. His body was changing—more defined, more powerful, more dangerous. The gentle man who held me at night was becoming a weapon forged for war. "I need to be there," I said quietly. "Luna—" "I need to be there, Marcus. I can't sit here wonderi

  • Luna To Alpha Ace   Chapter 74: Ace

    The neutral ground felt like a battlefield before the first shot was fired. Twenty-three pack leaders sat around the massive oak table, their scents mixing into a cocktail of tension, aggression, and barely contained violence. The Alpha King ring pulsed on my finger, responding to the electric atmosphere. I'd known this moment would come. The question was whether I'd be ready for it. "Let me make this simple," growled Alpha Thorne of the Silverback Pack, his grey eyes fixed on me with open hostility. "You're not our king. You're a pretender who got lucky with an ancient trinket." "The ring doesn't choose pretenders," I replied, keeping my voice steady despite the adrenaline coursing through my veins. "It chooses leaders." "Leaders are earned, not appointed by magic jewelry." Alpha Reeves of the Ironwood Pack leaned forward. "We've been governing ourselves for over a century. We don't need some upstart telling us how to run our territories." "And we sure as hell don't need

  • Luna To Alpha Ace   Chapter 73: James

    The wolf inside me stirred restlessly as I paced Derek's living room, waiting for him to finish his phone calls. Three days had passed since my transformation, and I still felt like I was wearing someone else's skin. The rage that came with my new nature pulsed beneath the surface, begging to be unleashed. But I had to be smart about this. Patient. The old James would have rushed in without a plan. The new James—the one with supernatural strength and centuries of inherited fury—knew better. "Found someone," Derek said, hanging up his phone. "Her name's Maria. She's raised six kids of her own, and she's discreet. Won't ask questions about where you got the baby or where you're going." "Good. When can she start?" "Tomorrow. But James, are you sure about this? Using your daughter as bait—" "She's not bait." The words came out sharper than I intended, and Derek took a step back. "She's my child. My blood. And she's going to help me get back what's mine." "By manipulating L

    The morning light filtered through our bedroom curtains, casting soft shadows across Ace's face as he stirred beside me. For a moment, I allowed myself to simply watch him sleep, memorizing the peaceful expression he wore so different from the weight of authority he'd been carrying lately. His eyes opened slowly, meeting mine with that lazy smile that still made my heart skip. "Morning, beautiful," he murmured, his voice rough with sleep. "Morning." I traced my finger along his jawline. "How are you feeling?" "Better. Much better." He stretched, and I could see the tension that had been knotting his shoulders for days was finally starting to ease. "Today feels... different." "Different how?" "Like maybe we can get through this." I wanted to share his optimism, but something in my chest felt tight. Maybe it was just the stress of everything we'd been through, or maybe it was intuition warning me that our peace wouldn't last. "Come on," I said, pushing the feeling aside.

  • Luna To Alpha Ace   Chapter 71: James

    The white walls of the asylum had been my prison for a month. A month of pretending to be insane, of taking their pills and nodding along with their therapy sessions. But I wasn't crazy. I was planning. Every night, I stared at the ceiling and thought about her. About Lily. About how that bastard Ace had poisoned her mind against me. About how Zoe had helped destroy everything we had. They thought they'd won. They thought putting me in here would end it. They were wrong. The bang echoed through the corridor at exactly midnight, right on schedule. I smiled as alarms began blaring throughout the building. Security guards shouted orders, their heavy footsteps pounding down the hallways. "Time to go, James." Derek Voss stood in my doorway, his rogue scent filling the small room. Behind him, three other wolves waited in the shadows. "About time," I said, pulling on the clothes he'd brought me. "We've got maybe five minutes before backup arrives," Derek said as we moved
