Chapter 4 -The pack's verdict
Terakhir Diperbarui:
2025-06-30 17:40:08Racheal walked through the forest in silence, her heart a battlefield of conflicting emotions. Each step pulled her farther from the bond-sick heat of Jaxon Vale—and closer to the cold fury she knew awaited her in the Moonwatcher Pack.
She’d left Kade without a word. He hadn’t stopped her. Maybe he couldn’t. Maybe the second bond had shaken him more than he’d shown. The trees thinned, and soon the great timber gates of the Moonwatcher Pack came into view. Two guards snapped to attention at the sight of her, scenting the tangled mess of energy still clinging to her skin—two alpha bonds, like smoke and fire wrapped around her body. Their eyes widened, but they said nothing. As she stepped through the gates, wolves paused mid-conversation. The training grounds fell silent. She could feel the weight of every stare. She wasn’t just Racheal Black anymore. She was a problem. She marched toward the packhouse, her boots thudding against the gravel path. She could hear her Beta title echoing in hushed tones. “She’s mated twice—” “To Alpha Kade… and a rogue—” “What does this mean for the treaty?” Inside the packhouse, her mother—Elder Lyria—was already waiting. The aging she-wolf stood at the center of the war room like she’d seen a vision and didn’t like what it showed. “You should’ve come straight to me,” Lyria said, her voice tight with control. “I needed space to think,” Racheal answered. She tried to sound strong. She didn’t feel it. “You’ve bonded with two alphas,” her mother said. “Do you understand what that means?” “I didn’t choose it.” “No,” Lyria said. “But the bond has been acknowledged. And now, the council demands answers.” Racheal’s stomach turned. “I don’t owe them anything. This isn’t some power play. I didn’t go looking for Jaxon—” “Jaxon?” her mother hissed. “You know his name already?” Racheal flinched. She hadn’t meant to say it like that. But the name had already branded itself across her soul. She didn’t need time to know him. Her wolf already did. Lyria stepped closer. “Alpha Kade has reached out. He’s demanding a meeting. He’s... disturbed.” “He has a right to be.” Her mother paused, softening for the first time. “Do you care for him?” “I don’t know,” Racheal admitted. “I thought I could. But then…” “Then the rogue appeared.” Racheal nodded, silent. Lyria’s voice lowered. “You are Beta to this pack. A symbol of strength and control. If the council believes your emotions are... compromised, they could remove you. Or worse.” “They’ll exile me.” Her mother didn’t answer. Racheal turned away, fists clenched. She wasn’t just fighting her heart now—she was fighting her whole future. “I didn’t ask for this,” she whispered. “I never wanted two mates.” “But you have them,” Lyria said. “And whether you like it or not, the entire werewolf order will be watching what you do next.” There was a soft knock on the door. A junior omega peeked in, eyes wide. “Beta Racheal… Alpha Kade is here. He wants to see you. Alone.” Her wolf surged. Not in joy. Not in fear. In preparation. The first bond was demanding her attention again. She took a deep breath, steeling herself. “Tell him I’ll be right there.”

Mated Twice: A Wolf’s Dilemma Chapter 55 – Fire at the Border
The war table in Hollowdeep’s inner chamber glowed with shifting flame.Kaela stood at its head, the fire reflecting in her eyes like twin suns. Racheal was beside her, arms crossed, the tip of her blade tapping against her boot.Around them, their most trusted wolves gathered: Kade, Alec, Mira—bandaged but alert—and three leaders of the Sanctuaries now pledged to the twins’ cause.No one spoke for a moment.Then Kaela broke the silence.> “We strike first.”---The room didn’t erupt—but it shifted.The quiet gasp of unity.Mira stepped forward. “Where?”Kaela raised a hand.Flames danced across the table’s surface, revealing a hidden outpost tucked into the eastern highlands, near the base of the old Ironridge cliffs.It pulsed red on the map.“Ash Hollow,” she said. “Cassian’s fallback stronghold. Old world, underground, no moonlight. It’s where he trains his operatives.”Racheal added, “And it's where he’ll retreat once he realizes we’ve sealed our borders. He won’t go back to the
Mated Twice: A Wolf’s Dilemma Chapter 54 – Messenger in the Snow
Mira ran.Her boots slipped over iced roots and jagged stone, cloak tangled in wind and frost, lungs burning with every breath.But she didn’t stop.Because in her satchel, beneath runes of concealment, lay the sealed scroll—the one she stole from the Assembly war table.She didn’t understand all of it.But she understood this:> Cassian Vire was coming.And he wasn’t coming alone.---Snow lashed her face as she crossed the Bloodhowl Ravine, the narrow bridge creaking underfoot. Thunder cracked far off to the east—a storm chasing her shadow.She had a head start.But not by much.She knew Cassian. She studied him once, before the purge.The Beta they erased from the history books.The one who disappeared when the godflames were first sealed.He had no rank now.But he had power.And worse, he had followers.---By the time Mira reached the Hollowdeep border, her legs were shaking.Wolves howled in the distance—not Sanctuary wolves.She cursed under her breath.Then reached into her s
Mated Twice: A Wolf’s Dilemma Chapter 53 – The Quiet Fang
The Council chamber was empty.But the shadows were not.High Alpha Devrin of Hollowroot stood before the flickering crest of the Assembly, jaw clenched, eyes fixed on the crimson ember slowly dying in the ceremonial brazier.“They’ve made a mistake,” he muttered.Behind him, someone stepped from the dark.“Elide would say it’s evolution,” the voice rasped. “I say it’s infection.”Devrin didn’t turn. “You’re late.”The figure emerged—a tall male wolf with silver scars across his jaw, wearing no sigil, no rank, and no scent.He had burned that away long ago.Cassian Vire.Once Beta of the First Flame.Now, the Assembly’s quiet fang.“I’m always where I’m meant to be,” Cassian said.---They stood in silence for a moment, listening to the wind shift through the ancient vents carved into the Assembly dome.“Two flamebearers,” Devrin finally said. “Do you know what that means?”Cassian’s lips curled. “That you’re all cowards for letting them walk out alive.”“They rewrote the prophecy.”“
Mated Twice: A Wolf’s Dilemma Chapter 52 – The Assembly’s Verdict
Word of their survival traveled faster than fire.Within a day, ravens flew across the northern ridges.By nightfall, spy flares bloomed in the sky.And by morning, the Four Alpha Lords had called an emergency council in Vire Hollow.They were told Racheal had died in Hollowdeep.That Pyra had claimed the prophecy.That the flame was contained.They were wrong.---Racheal and her sister walked into the Assembly’s chamber with ash-streaked skin, matching marks still hot on their palms, and fire in their veins.Kade and Alec flanked them like twin sentinels.Mira carried a single scroll—the updated prophecy, rewritten in flame-ink.The room fell to stunned silence.Corin of Redfang stood slowly. “This… isn’t possible.”Vana of the Iron Tundra whispered, “You’re both alive?”Racheal’s gaze swept the room. “No. We’re not just alive. We’re awakened.”---The Assembly leaders had prepared for a threat. A weapon. A reckoning.They weren’t prepared for two wolves reborn.Lady Elide of Nights
Mated Twice: A Wolf’s Dilemma Chapter 51 – Trial of the Split Flame
The silence after the blade split was unbearable.One half pulsed in Racheal’s hand—its familiar warmth now heavier, conscious.The other half flickered gently in her twin’s grasp, as though waking from centuries of slumber.Around them, the fire in the chamber burned with twin-colored light—gold and crimson, dancing like breath and blood. Balanced. Waiting.“What now?” Kade whispered, his voice reverent.Pyra stepped forward, eyes alight with awe. “Now, the Trial begins.”---Beneath the Throne Chamber lay a hidden path—sealed until the moment the flame chose.Carved in bone and lined with scorched roots, the spiral passage opened with a sound like weeping stone. Racheal descended first, her sister behind her.Neither spoke.The bond between them buzzed silently, like two stars sharing gravity for the first time.Kade and Alec remained above. This was not a battle.It was a rite.---They reached the bottom.A chamber of obsidian and ancient flame.At its center: a molten pool ringed
Mated Twice: A Wolf’s Dilemma Chapter 50 – The Flame Lies
The entrance to Hollowdeep stood open.No guards.No chants.No resistance.Just firelight flickering along blackened stone and the soft sound of wind humming through deathless roots.Racheal stood at the threshold with Kade on her right, Alec at her back, Mira clutching the edge of her notes like a shield.“This feels wrong,” Alec said quietly.“It is wrong,” Kade muttered. “She wants you to walk in blind.”Racheal stared ahead, Ashweaver humming quietly on her back. The blade had not spoken in hours, as if waiting.She stepped forward.And Hollowdeep swallowed her whole.---The flames guided her downward.Spirals of heat. Paths carved by rituals older than memory. Murals of wolves consumed by light and fire and shadow.Each step she took, the cave grew warmer—not physically, but inside. Like her heartbeat no longer belonged to her.And then the hall opened.The Throne Chamber.A circle of fire-pools glowed around a single obsidian seat.Empty.At its base stood Pyra.Alone.Unarmed
