FAZER LOGINDarkness held me for a long time.Not the kind that felt empty... not the simple darkness behind closed eyes. This one felt heavy, almost alive, as if the world had drifted very far away and left me somewhere deep beneath it. Sound came and went in strange waves. Warmth touched my skin, then faded, then returned again.For a while I did not know if I was awake or still falling.Then I felt it.Something warm wrapped lightly around my wrist.A steady pressure.Fingers.Someone was holding my pulse.Voices drifted through the haze.“…reaction to the aura clash.”Beta Nial.His voice sounded tighter than usual. Not annoyed this time. Not dry. Tense.“It should not have affected her this severely.”Silence followed.Then Alpha Kael’s voice came, low and controlled.“My aura has never harmed anyone before.”Something in the way he said it pulled at me. I wanted to answer. I wanted to open my eyes and say I was here, that I could hear them, that I was not gone... but my body would not liste
The palace did not remain quiet for long.At first it was only a distant noise somewhere beyond the office walls... the sharp echo of raised voices, boots striking stone, the clatter of something heavy hitting the floor.Then came the unmistakable sound of fighting.A shout.Another.The scrape of metal.Beta Nial’s head lifted immediately.Alpha Kael did not move.But the air in the room shifted.The noise in the corridor grew louder... closer... moving quickly through the palace like a storm rushing through narrow halls.Servants cried out somewhere outside.Boots pounded.Someone shouted orders.Another voice shouted back.Then came the unmistakable thud of a body striking stone.My stomach tightened.“What is happening?” I whispered.No one answered.The fighting was already approaching the office.A heavy impact struck the doors.Once.Twice.Then the doors burst open.The wooden panels slammed violently against the walls.The man standing in the doorway was breathing hard.Ruiz’
The next morning felt almost too peaceful.Sunlight spilled through the tall windows of Alpha Kael’s office, laying pale gold across the polished floor. Papers were arranged neatly across his desk... reports, letters, sealed documents, and a map marked in dark ink.Yesterday had been chaos.Raised voices in the council chamber. Fear. Punishment.The kind of silence that only came after someone powerful reminded the room who truly ruled it.And yet this morning everything felt calm.Orderly.'Yesterday everything was chaos... and now it's quiet again.'I sat quietly across from him, hands folded in my lap, trying very hard not to stare.I was failing.'I should probably stop looking at him.'I did not.He was focused on the documents before him, reading, signing, setting each aside with quiet certainty. No hesitation. No wasted movement.Even sitting behind a desk in silence, he looked powerful.But this Alpha Kael was different.Not the tyrannical Alpha on the council seat yesterday.
Alpha Kael did not stop walking after leaving the council chamber.He simply pulled me along with him.It took me several steps to realize something strange.Our hands were still intertwined.For a moment my ears still rang with the memory of raised voices and the scrape of chairs across the floor. The smell of old parchment and iron had followed us out like a ghost.But Alpha Kael did not pause.He did not even look back.He simply kept walking through the corridor with long, steady strides.My mind was still tangled inside the council chamber... inside the punishment he had delivered so calmly... inside the cold silence that had followed.Then my gaze dropped again.Our hands.Still joined together.His hand held mine firmly as he walked through the corridor, long strides confident and effortless.Not hesitant.Not questioning.As if this had never been unusual at all.As if my hand had always belonged in his.My chest tightened slightly.'He really does whatever he wants.'My eyes
The chamber did not breathe.For several long seconds after Alpha Kael gave the order, no one moved. The council hall, which only moments ago had been filled with raised voices and shifting chairs, had fallen into a silence so deep that I could hear the distant echo of armor in the corridor outside.Ruiz was being dragged away.The warriors held his arms firmly as they pulled him toward the doors. The sound of his boots scraping against the stone floor seemed louder than it should have been. No one tried to stop them. No one spoke.Even the elders who had been arguing earlier now sat perfectly still.My fingers tightened helplessly in my lap.I could not tell if the room had grown warmer…or if it was only him.I had not moved either.Slowly, almost without meaning to, I glanced toward the man beside me.Alpha Kael looked completely calm.Not angry.Not even irritated.If anything, he looked almost bored.As though he had merely given a small correction… not a punishment that could cr
The silence after Alpha Kael spoke felt strange. “Unless you would rather sit where I sit.” No one in the council chamber moved. For a moment, it was as if the entire room had forgotten how to breathe. I suddenly became very aware of where I was sitting. Not across the chamber. Not standing among the advisors like before. But beside him. Close enough that the warmth from his body reached me through the small space between our chairs. My hands rested quietly in my lap, but my shoulders had stiffened without my permission. 'Why did he say that…?' Several elders exchanged brief glances. One of them shifted forward slightly, clearly debating whether to continue speaking. The tension in the chamber felt thick. Finally, one of the older council members cleared his throat. “My lord,” he said carefully, his tone respectful but strained. “The seat beside the Alpha is not a place casually occupied.” The meaning was obvious. That seat was meant for the Luna. Not for someone lik
