Kael

The clang of metal echoed faintly across the arena as warriors moved in circles, sweat dripping down their bodies beneath the harsh afternoon sun.

I stood in the center of the training grounds with my arms folded behind me, watching them carefully.

“No,” I barked sharply, and Jack, the warrior nearest to me, froze instantly. “You are relying too much on brute force.”

Jack lowered his head slightly, breathing heavily.

“Your wolf is not merely claws and fangs. It is instinct. Power. Speed.

  • Rejected By The Alpha, Crowned By Fate   The Cruel Price of Escape

    MayaI slowly opened my eyes.For a few seconds, I remained still, staring blankly at the ceiling above me. A familiar pattern immediately caught my attention—a snow-white wolf carved into the pale surface, its sharp eyes and majestic features standing out against the clean, icy background.My heart stopped.That ceiling.Damn it!I shot upright so quickly that the room spun around me.No.No, no, no!I was back here.Back in Snow Jade Pack.The realization hit me like a punch to the stomach. My hands clenched into fists as the memory of everything that had happened came rushing back.That bastard had brought me back!My gaze swept frantically around the room, already searching for an escape route. Every part of this place suddenly felt suffocating—the walls, the furniture, even the air itself. It was as if the room had shrunk around me, trapping me inside it.There was no way I was staying here.Not again.If I had to claw through a wall, I would do it. If I had to fight every guard

    MayaI stood there, my knees nearly buckling as my gaze remained locked on Alaric.The sight of him standing there in front of me felt so impossible that my mind struggled to process it. My heart pounded hard against my ribs, while every instinct inside me screamed that I needed to run.But there was nowhere to run.“How did you find me?” I demanded, my voice sounding a bit strained and shaky. “And what are you doing here?”Alaric didn't answer immediately and simply stared at me.The moment the words left my mouth, I instantly regretted not leaving this pack when I had originally planned to. Maybe he had found me because I had stayed too long here.Damn it!Isabella's death had hit me so hard that I forgot about everything else and only wanted to grieve her death.Before I could think further, Alaric let out a dark chuckle that sent a chill crawling down my spine.“Are you finally done with your little escape drama?” He clicked his tongue against the roof of his mouth, shaking his he

  • Rejected By The Alpha, Crowned By Fate   The Ghost I Couldn’t Escape

    MayaI lay on the bed, staring blankly at the wall in front of me.There was nothing particularly interesting about the wall. It was the same pale-colored wall I had stared at countless times before, the same faint mark near the corner, the same shadows cast by the dim light in the room.Yet somehow, I couldn't bring myself to look away.My mind felt empty.Or perhaps it was too full.So full of memories, regrets, pain, and questions that I no longer knew which one to hold on to.A brief knock sounded on the door. I didn't pay attention to it. Another second passed, then the door opened.“Luna…”The familiar voice reached my ears, and I finally blinked.Amira stepped into the room, carrying a tray of food in one hand and a bottle of water in the other. She walked quietly toward the small table beside my bed and placed everything there with the same carefulness she had shown ever since she came to stay with me.“Your dinner is ready,” she said softly.“I'm not hungry.”Amira glanced at

    RonanThe siphon's power surged through my veins.It was wild, hungry, almost alive. A dark, invisible force gathered around my hands, responding to the rage burning inside me. Every instinct screamed at me to release it.Kael stood only a few feet away, close enough. All I had to do was unleash the power.I didn't care about the consequences.All I wanted was to see Kael suffer."Ronan!"Caleb's arms suddenly wrapped around me from behind. His grip tightened around my chest as he desperately tried to restrain me."Don't you dare use the siphon's powers here!"I struggled against him."Let me go.""Ronan, listen to me!" Caleb leaned closer, his lips almost touching my ear."You know what will happen if you use it outside. You know exactly what will happen once Kael finds out! You know what fucking happened ten years ago!"My entire body went still. That sentence struck something buried deep inside me.Ten years.My jaw clenched.I knew exactly what had happened. My mind drifted backwa

    RonanThe moment I realized Lyra was in danger, I didn't waste another second.I rushed straight toward the infirmary, ignoring the dull ache that still lingered throughout my body after three days of being unconscious.When I reached the infirmary, I pushed the door open so hard that it slammed against the wall.Gwen, who was inside arranging a few things around the hospital room, flinched violently.“Sir Ronan!”“Where's Lyra?” I asked the moment I set my eyes on her.Gwen stared at me for a moment before shaking her head.“I don't know.”“What do you mean you don't know? I was told she was here. Where is she?!”“I brought some food for Ms. Lyra earlier,” she explained quickly. “But she suddenly left in a hurry after asking me where the Alpha was. I thought she would return, so I've been waiting for her ever since.”I stood completely still.“She left? When?”Gwen glanced toward the wall clock.“About an hour ago.”“An hour?”“Yes.”“And where's the Alpha?”She hesitated briefly. “T

    Kael“Fucking asshole!”I rubbed my temple in irritation as Asher's furious voice exploded inside my head.“Will you shut up already?”The damn mutt had been yelling at me nonstop ever since I left Lyra's room.“No, I won’t shut up!” Asher barked furiously. “What the hell was that?”I shot back, “Y

    LyraGrowing up, I had always been told that there was no greater love in the world than the love in a matebond. It was deeper than love, stronger than loyalty, and more powerful than anything else.But then, I had also been told about the darker side of the bond. A love this strong could become a
