MasukCHAPTER 104: A NEW BEGINNINGThe palace had finally become quiet.For days, the sound of weapons, desperate cries, and hurried footsteps had filled its corridors. Now, the warriors were no longer rushing towards battle, and the messengers no longer arrived with reports of fresh attacks.The war was over.But the victory had come at a terrible cost.Arden lay in his chambers resting, his wounds have covered but he still felt the exhaustion from several silvers used during the war.“Your Majesty, you need to rest,” one of the healers advised.Arden glanced at Hazel.“Tell her that.”Hazel immediately frowned.“Don’t even try it.”He chuckled.“I haven’t said anything.”“And you won’t. You need to rest.”The healer smiled discreetly before gathering the remaining medical supplies.“His Majesty is recovering well. The wound was serious but of course he’s the wolf king so he healed properly. He should regain his strength with enough rest.”Hazel released a breath she hadn’t realised she wa
CHAPTER 103: THE FALL OF RYDER The news of Darian’s defeat had not yet reached Shadow Moon Pack.Inside the pack house, Alpha Ryder sat comfortably in his office, examining a few documents.Unlike the people outside, he appeared to have no worries whatsoever.He had deliberately stayed away from the war, claiming that he needed to remain behind to coordinate his warriors and protect his territory.In reality, he had no intention of risking his life for a battle he wasn’t certain he would win.A knock interrupted his thoughts.“Come in.”The door opened, revealing Raymond and the head warrior.Ryder looked up.“What is it?”Raymond stepped forward.“Alpha, we need to discuss something.”“Then speak.”“Why haven’t our warriors been sent to join the battle?”Ryder frowned.“Who told you they haven’t?”“We’ve been waiting for instructions, but nothing has come. The other packs have already joined the war, yet we’re still here.”Ryder leaned back in his chair.“Arden refused to allow
CHAPTER 102: VICTORYDarian could hardly believe what he was witnessing.The mindless wolves he had spent so much time creating were no longer under his control. The creatures that had once obeyed his every command were now free, and some had even turned against his forces.His carefully prepared advantage was disappearing before his eyes.“Impossible!” he roared.Hazel stood in the middle of the battlefield, her powers still surrounding her.Ethan stared at her in disbelief.“What has she done?”Darian turned towards him.“Do something!”But Ethan had barely recovered from the shock of watching his forces crumble.Arden noticed the confusion among the enemy warriors and immediately seized the opportunity.“Everyone, advance! Push them away from the palace!”The warriors responded immediately.The northern soldiers moved forward, joining forces with Arden’s men. The rogues who had previously overwhelmed the palace were now struggling to defend themselves.Caden fought his way towards
CHAPTER 101: MARA’S DEATH The palace grounds had become almost unrecognisable.Warriors were scattered across the courtyard, some still fighting while others struggled to recover from their injuries. The air was filled with the sounds of shouting, clashing weapons, and gunfire.Arden stood near the inner entrance, his sword firmly in his hand.Darius was beside him, while Caden and Gaius were trying to reorganise the remaining warriors.Darian, however, seemed to be enjoying every moment.“What’s wrong, Arden? Have you finally realised that you cannot win?”Arden ignored him.His attention was on the approaching rogues.Darian shook his head.“You know, I almost feel sorry for you. You had everything, yet you allowed yourself to become vulnerable.”“Enough talking.”Arden advanced, forcing Darian to step back.Their swords collided, and the battle between the two kings began.Darian was powerful, but Arden was equally determined. Neither seemed willing to surrender, and their mov
CHAPTER 100: ATTACKED!!! The palace was unusually quiet that morning.Arden and his commanders had spent the previous hours ensuring that every warrior was in position. The new arrangements had been completed, the reserve forces were ready, and the northern warriors had settled into their assigned positions.For the first time in days, Arden felt they had finally gotten ahead of their enemies.Unfortunately, their enemies had other plans.A loud horn suddenly sounded from outside the palace.Arden, who was discussing something with Darius and Gaius, immediately raised his head.“What was that?”Before anyone could respond, the doors burst open, and a guard rushed inside.“Your Majesty! We’re under attack!”Everyone immediately stood.“From where?” Arden demanded.“Rogues! They’ve breached the outer defence!”Arden exchanged a look with Darius.“Impossible. Every entrance was secured.”“We don’t know how they got in, Your Majesty, but they’re already inside!”Arden grabbed his swor
CHAPTER 99: SUSPICIOUS MARA Piper hurried down the palace corridor, holding a small list of items Caden had requested.He had been in the war room for most of the afternoon, and she had promised to bring him a few documents he needed.As she approached the entrance, she noticed that the door was slightly open.She pushed it gently.“Mara?”The person inside immediately turned around.Mara was standing beside the large table, flipping through some documents. The moment she heard Piper’s voice, she quickly dropped the papers back into place.“Oh!”Piper stopped at the entrance.“What are you doing here?”Mara looked startled for a moment before quickly composing herself.“Nothing.”Piper glanced at the documents on the table.“Nothing?”“I was just looking around.”Piper stepped further into the room.“Looking around?”“Yes. Is that a problem?”Piper frowned slightly.“Not necessarily. But this is the war room. What exactly were you looking for?”Mara’s expression changed.“Wow. So
Chapter 6: THE JOURNAL.The castle corridor stretched endlessly before Caden as he made his way towards the dungeon. Two guards flanked him, their boots echoing against the floor in rhythmic thumps. “Check the eastern border first”, Caden ordered “ the guards who brought in the rogue are statione
Chapter 5: WHO IS SHE ? “Can I come in?” he asked again. Hazel regained her grip. She had initially lost herself in the wonderment of his face. "Yes, you…can.” she said, stammering. She was feeling an intense heat from within. Arden stepped a few feet inside giving her space, his silver eyes sw
Chapter 2: BRUTALLY REJECTED. Hazel panted hard. She was running through the dense forest, her feet pounding the earth, her breath coming in ragged gasps. She kept running, her heart racing with fear. Every few seconds, she'd turn back, and there they'd be - three black wolves, their eyes fixed o
CHAPTER 1: THE UNWANTED OMEGA. Hazel crouched on the cold stone floor, her body worn from endless chores. The Shadow Moon pack's mansion loomed above, a place of cruelty and indifference. The scrub brush felt heavy in her hands, a reminder of her desperation. The three maids s
