LOGINThe warriors assigned to watch Ella from the doorway could only sigh wearily and roll their eyes."To think this madwoman is one of the biggest traitors... Why did Alpha Alice order us to keep her alive? Tch," one guard grumbled, looking at Ella with disgust."Because I’m going to ensure she pays for every single one of her sins over a very, very long time."A cold, sarcastic voice echoing from the hallway, startled the guards. They stiffened in unison and immediately bowed their heads respectfully as Alice walked in, accompanied by Ronan. Alice flashed a smirk at the guards."A quick death is too merciful for a woman like her," Alice added casually.Alice shifted her gaze to Ella, who was still pressing her own sharp nails against her neck, drawing a thin trickle of blood.Ella snarled. She began to mutter incoherently, spewing curses at Alice, invoking the name of the now-crippled Victor, and lamenting her father’s humiliating defeat.Alice listened to the hysterical threats with ut
Alice positioned herself directly in front of Ronan, spreading her arms wide to form an absolute shield. Her muscles tensed, ready to force a shift back into her wolf form, even though her energy was utterly depleted and her womb screamed in protest. Her eyes scanned the hundreds of Moonshade Pack members surrounding them like a deadly sea of shadows in the darkness.Yet, instead of lunging forward to tear them both apart, the front line members slowly raised their trembling hands into the air. A moment later, a wave of surrender rippled through the crowd. They raised their hands as well, yielding completely to the new dominance.From the midst of the throng, an elder shouted, his hoarse voice cutting through the night air: "To the new Alpha!"Like a choir rehearsed for decades, voices answered in unison: "To the new Alpha! May glory be with us under the Moon Goddess's protection!"Then, like a cascade of falling dominoes, they all dropped to their knees. Hundreds of foreheads bowe
A raw, brutal blow landed hard against Edmund’s face. The sound of a fracturing jawbone rang out sharply, slicing through the silence of the arena, which reeked of the metallic tang of blood.Ronan’s eyes went wide. His dark pupils seemed to flash with a blood-red light. He had completely lost his sanity. He rained blow after blow upon the monster’s face beneath him. A hoarse, stifled scream tore from the depths of his throat, punctuated by a single word chanted like a mantra of despair."Why?! Why?! WHY?!"As blood splattered across his face, memories of the past, which he had desperately buried in the hellish depths of his mind, suddenly erupted outward, as if forcibly summoned.That night had been his younger sister’s birthday celebration. The entire family had gathered in the dining area near the pool, which glowed with a soft blue light. They were laughing, stacking up glossy, gift-wrapped boxes as part of a silly game. His grandfather, whose hair was as white as cotton, laughed
Ha, is it over now?Someone, please clap and declare that this mad spectacle has ended. Please announce that she now officially holds the dubious honor of being the child who just tore her own father apart.She felt as though the inside of her chest, right beneath her ribs, was being ground down by a millstone. Her eyes burned with searing heat, threatening to spill tears that would ruin the reputation of the ferocious monster she had just established.This was her decision. Her most rational choice to build and protect her new family. Her world certainly had a cruel sense of humor, handing her a script of destiny this wretched.“Please, don't move again, Father.” Alice thought, gazing down at the massive, blood-soaked body of the black wolf beneath her feet.She truly didn't want to launch another attack. Her energy was completely spent. The more brutally she pushed her shifting abilities and gravitational aura to their limits, the more dangerous the consequences became for the fetus
No matter how hard Alice racked her brains, this bloody duel remained the single most efficient shortcut.Crushing the pack’s head and seizing absolute control of the den was the fastest way to secure dominance, and to sever the lineage of a family already rotting from within.Alice glanced toward the edge of the arena. Her heart pounded with anticipation. She desperately wanted to see Ronan’s expression when he laid eyes on her true form, a form he had always regarded as that of a loathsome monster. If he recoiled after seeing it, then so be it; that was only natural.And one more crucial thing... her father. Edmund’s wolf form was a massive, pitch-black beast with a vertical scar running across its left eye. Alice wondered how Ronan would view him.When the corner of her eye caught Ronan’s silhouette suddenly freezing stiff, Alice simply closed her eyes. A storm of emotions raged in her chest.‘I had hoped it wouldn't come to this, yet here we are.’A long, ear-splitting howl erupte
"Ugh, you're so loud."Alice picked at her right ear with her little finger, rolling her eyes in a display of lazy, utter contempt. She clicked her tongue in annoyance as she stared at her own biological father. At the top of the stairs, Edmund’s jaw clenched so tightly that the grinding of his teeth sounded like stones being crushed together.Edmund descended a single marble step. Every movement exuded a forced dominance. "Not only have you betrayed your own blood," he hissed through gritted teeth, "but you also dare to come here and challenge this pack. Have you forgotten—""Shh!" Alice cut him off quickly, raising a finger into the air. "You talk too much, Mister Edmund."Edmund’s eyes widened. Green veins bulged in his neck. His clenched knuckles twitched at his sides. Catching that micro-movement, Alice grinned broadly. Her smile was laced with poisonous provocation."What?" Alice challenged, tilting her head. "Do you want to hit me in front of this new audience of yours?"Alice
From one figure, it became two, then more. Before I knew it, a whole group had gathered in front of me. Their harsh conversation stopped as soon as my shadow fell to the floor. Six pairs of eyes turned simultaneously. Their gazes didn't just stare; they clawed at my skin, stripping away any vestige
This is… crazy.I could hear my heart pounding right in my ears. I hoped he couldn't hear it, and couldn't hear the rattling of my brain trying to lie."Do you really not remember anything?" His deep voice broke the silence.I looked up at him.Morning light spilled across his face, catching on tha
Shit.I tried to move, but my body barely responded. Something heavy pinned me in place. It was wrapped tightly around my waist. A strong arm, hot, solid, and unyielding. It made me wonder, was it really an arm?My back pressed against something firm, and I knew it wasn’t a wall. Then I heard it, a
As the guards grabbed my legs to drag my limp body, the Alpha stepped into the centre of the ground, his voice cutting through the noise."To welcome my daughter-in-law, Ella, into the family, I have brought a special gift for her," he announced delightedly. "The Hunter has been captured! Now you c
