LOGINPOV: KEENANI was in my office, surrounded by numerous folders scattered across the desk. The documents and reports in front of me made no sense, despite all my efforts. Many Lupine pups had disappeared over the past few years without leaving any trace. More recently, I had received news that witch children were also vanishing mysteriously.“Who is taking them and why?” I pondered, studying the few clues I had.As I dove deeper into my thoughts, my cell phone started ringing. I looked at the screen and saw the saved name: Trouble! An involuntary smile appeared on my lips when I saw the call, but the smile vanished quickly as soon as I heard her breathless and desperate voice.“Keenan?” she said, agitated, with strange sounds in the background.“Yulli, what happened?” I stood up, feeling worry grow inside me.“Remember when you told me to stay out of trouble? Sorry, fleabag, I couldn’t keep that promise.” I heard the sound of magic being cast, and her panting breath indicated she was r
Years had passed since our union. Councils had been established, and diplomacy reigned among the species. Although there were still many wars and conflicts, we managed to contain most of them with agreements and alliances. Witches and wolves no longer mixed, and human society had built its own government, each group following its own rules.The law prohibiting interspecies involvement had been sanctioned. Romantic relationships or the conception of hybrid children were strictly forbidden, and the punishments were severe—often punishable by death. Unfortunately, the punishments had been dictated by humans and witches as a way to avoid direct attacks on the Lupine packs. We were blamed for every misfortune that befell the world, with the Supreme Alpha being the leader responsible for restoring order according to his destiny. That was how he continued, especially within the packs, getting involved with other species only if they failed to uphold their part of the agreement or if they dis
I nodded, trying to control my nervousness. Aaron approached, unzipped my dress, and undressed me in front of everyone. He laid me down in the thermal waters; the temperature was pleasantly warm. He undressed as well, his strong and imposing body reflecting the light of the full moon that reddened the sky. Aaron raised his head and howled—a deep and powerful sound that echoed through the mountain, announcing the beginning of the sealing of our union before the pack and the Goddess.I kept my eyes on his sculpted body, feeling a profound happiness and fulfillment for having my mate by my side. My wolf stirred in anticipation of being marked and claimed by her destined one. He leaned over me, his strong and steady hands filling with water from the spring. He wet my hair and my face and let the water slide down my body, creating a sensual contrast with the night around us. Furthermore, he picked up floral oils from the sides of the spring and began to massage my body, focusing especially
POV: CALLIEMonths had passed until the night of the blood moon. At the foot of the mountain, an altar had been set up amidst the flora, elegantly decorated and illuminated. The fresh night air made my heart race with anticipation. One of the maids approached, adjusting the final details of my wedding dress, making me feel like a princess straight out of a fairy tale. The fitted bodice, adorned with delicate lace appliqués, gently hugged my body. The long, sheer sleeves, embroidered with pearls, shimmered subtly in the light. The skirt flowed in light layers of ivory satin covered with tulle, moving gracefully with every step.The long train extended across the floor, decorated with lace and small crystals that caught the light, creating a soft glow. The veil, also made of fine tulle, was fastened to my hair with a silver tiara adorned with crystals and pearls, adding a touch of elegance without stealing the spotlight.When I looked at myself in the mirror, I barely recognized the wom
**POV: CALLIE**At first, everything was blurry, as if I were looking through a thick veil of fog. But then, little by little, the shapes began to take form. At first, they were just indistinct shadows, but soon I saw a silvery light spreading across the sky, tracing ethereal outlines against the darkness of the night. It was the lunar eclipse, majestic and imposing, its soft glow bathing the mountain and everything around me in an almost surreal radiance.I sighed in awe, completely immersed in the magnitude of nature at the mountaintop. My eyes filled with tears, reflecting an overwhelming and indescribable emotion. With my heart racing, I turned my gaze to my mate, Aaron.He looked stunning, dressed in an elegant white suit that highlighted his imposing figure. His hair was impeccably styled, his beard neatly trimmed, and his mischievous smile radiated confidence and charm. His eyes shone as he looked at me.&n
POV: AARONA faint grumble in the distance, followed by a soft cry, made me stir, waking slightly. Callie was still asleep, lazily entwined with my body. I kissed the top of her head and gently shifted her aside, careful not to wake her. I walked slowly to Rigan’s room, where he seemed irritated."Hey there, big guy, you’re going to wake the whole pack like that." I smiled at the little one, whose bright, reddish eyes stared back at me. The elders believed his eyes were like that because he had been born prematurely on the night of the blood moon.I picked him up, awkwardly changing his diaper. That thing felt more like a trap than something meant to handle his needs. I grabbed the pre-prepared bottle from the mini fridge and warmed it up. I fed the irritated, hungry little wolf in my arms."You’re fierce," I commented with pride. "Your mother said she saw us as enemies in the futur
POV: CALLIEWhen we arrived at the pack, I felt uneasy being escorted by the Beta. Something about him triggered my wolf’s instincts, growling in warning that he posed a threat. I insisted on accompanying the Alpha to the prisoners’ cell; in some way, I felt safe by his side. His power felt like an
POV: AARONI returned to the shower, letting the cold water cool the heat burning through my body. Callie’s innocence, her intoxicating reactions, the way her eyes seemed to find me even though she couldn’t see—everything about her was driving me insane. I needed to feel her body.My wolf growled c
POV: AARONWe went straight to the cells where the male wolves were separated from the females. As per my orders, all prisoners were to remain in their human form—their weakest state. Any who disobeyed were eliminated without mercy. I stood in front of a cell holding three werewolves. I kept the gr
POV: CALLIE“It wouldn’t be wise to play with me like this; the pack might interpret it the wrong way,” I said, gripping the utensils in my hands tightly. The truth was, I didn’t know how to handle his games—they were a different kind of torture that stirred up very confusing feelings.“What kind o
