Chapter One Hundred And Forty Four: (When Alphas Collide)

ONE HOUR AGO

Damon exhaled deeply as the plane finally touched down in Australia, the impact reverberating through his bones. Still, no matter how many times he thought about it, or how hard he tried to suppress it, he still couldn't quite believe it.

He was here.

In this part of the world.

In that man's territory

Marcus Westwood.

Alpha of the Dark moon pack.

The man he had once been fiercely jealous of.

The one who had helped Amber during the years she'd been away from the pack—the man who had come dangerously close to becoming her future.

The name alone stirred something ugly in his chest.

He could still remember how much he had hated him after Amber returned to New York, and at the same time, how terrified he'd been of losing her to him.

Until things had finally worked out between him and Amber, and Marcus had faded from their lives for good.

Or so he had believed.

Now here he was—back in Marcus's region—swallowing his pri

    Chapter One Hundred And Forty Six; (If He Walks Away)It wasn't long after Damon stormed out of the grand hall that the black oak doors of the pack house swung open and he stepped outside, the cold, crisp air slamming into his faceThe car was still waiting outside.The driver stiffened the moment he saw him and hurried to open the door.Damon slid into the backseat without a word, leaning back against the leather."Drive," He ordered.The driver nodded quickly and started the engine, pulling away toward the airport.The long drive felt long and endless.Cars honking as they passed through the city.Damon stared outside the window, his thoughts drifting, as the city lights blurred past him in a streak of colors.This was a mistake.He never should have set foot in that man's pack in the first place. He should have known the bastard would turn him away, not with the grudge he still carried.How ironic, that the one time he swallowed his pride and asked for help, it ended in disaster.N

    Chapter One Hundred And Forty Five; (A storm on the Horizon)The silence that followed was deafeningFor a long moment no one moved, all eyes fixed on the two Alphas standing mere inches apart, their dominance crashing together, raw power rippling through the hall until the air itself seemed to hum.A few seconds dragged by, and then... Marcus slowly released Damon. He staggered back, threw his head up, and let out a dark, bitter laugh.The sound echoed through the room, lasting far too long, until every gaze shifted to him.And then… the laughter died.The color drained from Marcus's face, his expression hardening into something cold, something lethal. The temperature in the room seemed to drop."You barge into my territory uninvited, disrupt an alliance that took weeks to secure. And then you stand there and demand I go to war at your side?" he growled, his alpha tone rolling off him in heavy waves.He took a step forward, eyes blazing."Tell me, Damon... what gives you the audacity

  • Once His Mate, Now His Rival   Chapter One Hundred And Forty Three

    Chapter One Hundred And Forty Three; (The Alpha's Reflection II)Marcus didn't know how long had passed since Aaron left the room, or how many times he had clenched his jaw that evening.His thoughts kept drifting back to that bastard.Back to Damon Cross.The man he hated more than anyone else on the planet.The one responsible for the constant ache in his chest.If it weren't for him, Amber never would have left.If it weren't for him, maybe… just maybe, things would have turned out differently.He exhaled deeply, bracing his hands against the edge of his desk as he tried to force the thoughts away. Dwelling on Damon—or on Amber—served no purpose now. Not when he had a pack to lead.Still, his mind refused to cooperate.Why would Damon come to this part of the world?As far as he was concerned, Damon had no business anywhere near this region. New York was miles away, far outside his territory. And with Amber in his life now, the Lycan King had everything he could possibly want.Powe

    Chapter One Hundred And Forty Two; (The Alpha's Reflection)Marcus stood before the wide glass window of his office, dressed in black trousers and a long-sleeved shirt, staring out at the pack grounds where his wolves moved with purpose and efficiency.Some were training in tight formations across the open field.Others engaged in brutal hand-to-hand combat.A few sparred with mock, wooden swords and staffs, moving in coordinated pairs and trios.Orders were barked and obeyed without hesitation. The pack no longer looked like the mess it had been when he arrived.It was stronger now.Organized.Ready for whatever threat might come their way—just as it once had been.Nearly two months had passed since his return.At first, everything had been chaos.In his absence, rumors of Magnus escaping Black reach and unleashing destruction had reached the pack, spreading fear through every rank. Stories of destruction followed—pack after pack falling to his forces, their Alphas slaughtered withou

    The phone vibrated again in Damon's hand.Once.Twice.The unknown number glowed on the screen like a challenge.Damon stepped away from Jake's bedside, his grip tightening as he answered."Talk."A low chuckle rolled through the line."Straight to business, I see," the voice drawled. "I almost forgot how charming you are, Alpha Damon."Damon didn't respond, his gaze fixed on the city lights beyond the ward window, distant and cold, just like the voice in his ear.Silence stretched between them.Five seconds.Eight seconds.Then ten.The man on the other end wanted it that way. Wanted Damon to fill it with fear.Slow, measured breathing followed. The sound of someone utterly at ease. Unbothered by the chaos he’d unleashed in a single night."I thought you'd be louder," Magnus said at last. "After discovering what's left of your pack."He paused, letting the words sink in."No howling? No threats? I'm disappointed."Something old and feral stirred in Damon's chest, a growl vibrating be
