“What do you mean the Alpha isn’t in the pack?”

I stared at Agnes, waiting for her to say she had misspoken… that Kael was simply busy somewhere inside the pack house and would arrive any second.

But Agnes only hesitated.

That alone made dread settle heavily inside me.

“The Alpha…” she began carefully, lowering her voice slightly, “Alpha Kael left before dawn with Alpha Simeon.”

My brows furrowed immediately.

“Left for where?”

Agnes glanced briefly at Maya before answering quietly.

    KaelI stared at the man sitting motionlessly in the wheelchair.The warehouse was eerily quiet, the silence pressing heavily against the walls as my gaze remained fixed on him.I turned my attention toward Greg and Elder Jon."Who is he?"Greg exchanged a glance with Elder Jon before stepping forward."His name is Dan. He's a thirty-two-year-old man that—"For a moment, I thought I had heard him incorrectly."Did you just say he's thirty-two?" I had to ask, cutting him off."Yes, Alpha."There was no way the man sitting before me was thirty-two with his facial features and appearance... absolutely no way."That's impossible."Greg sighed. "I thought the same thing until we discovered the truth."My eyes narrowed."Explain.""Dan was actually involved in the Shadow Vein organization."My expression darkened... the Shadow Vein.This organization was notorious for its illegal black-market activities operating within our pack territories. They specialized in illegal trades, underground d

  • Rejected By The Alpha, Crowned By Fate   Who Is He?

    Kael"Your feet are too close together," I said, circling Lyra as she held her stance. "Spread them a little wider. A fighter who can't balance is already halfway to the ground."Lyra immediately adjusted her footing."Good. Now bend your knees slightly," I continued. "Don't lock them. Keep your weight centered. If someone pushes you, you shouldn't stumble."She nodded, concentrating hard.I stepped closer and lightly pressed against her shoulder. To my surprise, she barely moved.A small smile tugged at my lips."Better."Her eyes brightened at the praise.Honestly, Lyra was a remarkably fast learner. Most people needed hours, sometimes days, to grasp the fundamentals of balance and body positioning. Yet after only a few corrections, she had already begun adjusting naturally.I couldn't help feeling impressed. For someone with little combat experience, she adapted exceptionally well."See?" I said. "Your body already knows when something feels stable. You just need to train it until

  • Rejected By The Alpha, Crowned By Fate   A Beautiful Gift

    MayaThe door burst open without warning.Freya angrily stormed into my room. The handle slammed against the wall with a loud thud, making me pause mid-scroll on my phone.My eyes lifted slowly.She stood in the middle of my room like she owned the space, her chest rising and falling sharply, her arms crossed tightly against her chest. Her face was twisted into an expression of pure irritation—no, not just irritation… frustration and bitterness.“I hate her,” she snapped immediately.“I hate that Lyra girl so much. How can she be laughing and smiling after everything she did to me?” Her voice rose slightly, trembling with anger. “How can she be happy when I feel so miserable?”For a moment, I said nothing. My thumb hovered over my phone screen before I slowly lowered it onto the bed beside me and really looked at her.Freya was breathing hard, her eyes sharp and almost wild with emotion. There was something unstable in the way she stood—like she had been holding all of this in and fin

  • Rejected By The Alpha, Crowned By Fate   The Upcoming Celebration

    LyraThe kitchen was unusually busy this afternoon.Large baskets of vegetables occupied nearly every corner, while the servants moved in and out carrying sacks of grain and spices. The entire pack was preparing for the Red Full Moon celebration in just a few days' time, and the excitement could practically be felt in the air.I sat beside Gwen on a stool, helping her sort vegetables into separate baskets.At least... I was supposed to be helping.The truth was, I had spent more time watching everyone bustle around than actually helping.This would be my first Red Full Moon celebration in Stormfang Pack. The thought alone filled me with curiosity."Gwen? How is the Red Full Moon celebration celebrated here in the pack? This will actually be my first time experiencing it here."I waited for an answer, but nothing came. I turned my head toward her and noticed that Gwen wasn't paying attention to me at all.Her fingers absentmindedly plucked at the vegetables in her hands in a completely

    HarryThe room suddenly felt smaller.No.No.No.If Caleb was here… then…A creaking sound interrupted my thoughts. My gaze snapped toward the large rocking chair facing the window.The chair slowly turned, and my heart nearly stopped.There he was… Ronan… sitting comfortably in the chair, watching me with the same cold eyes and calm expression.He… he had been sitting there all along?A small smile touched his lips.“It’s been such a long time, Harry.”My entire body locked up. I couldn’t move. Couldn’t breathe. Couldn’t think.Ronan was here.For a second, my mind refused to accept it. Then survival instinct immediately took over.My hand went straight to my cross bag.I didn’t think. I just acted.My fingers closed around the gun I had kept hidden inside. In one smooth motion, I pulled it out and aimed it at him without hesitati

    HarryI walked through the apartment door behind Rocky.The moment both of us stepped inside, the door slammed shut behind us with a heavy metallic click.My instincts immediately sharpened.Without thinking, my hand moved to the strap of the cross bag hanging across my shoulder. My fingers curled around it tightly as my eyes swept across the room.The interior wasn't exactly what I had expected.The outside of the apartment had looked abandoned, but the inside was different. It looked very old, but clean.The cream-colored walls showed cracks in some places, but someone had clearly taken the time to maintain them.A large antique clock hung against one wall, and several old paintings decorated the room.Near the far end stood a massive rocking chair that sat directly facing a large window, but the chair's back was turned toward us.I turned toward Rocky."Where's the client?"Rocky offered an awkward smile."Relax," Rocky said quickly. "Exercise some patience. He's here."Just then,

    LyraI gasped.The moment I stepped through the hallway behind Kael and emerged into the space beyond, it felt as if I had walked into another world entirely."What in the world..."My feet stopped moving.I simply stood there and stared.The place before me looked nothing like the building we had

    Lyra"Go and check the newly arrived beddings and rugs for the second floor," Agnes instructed one of the maids."Yes, Madam Agnes."The maid nodded quickly before hurrying away.I stood a short distance away, watching the exchange while pretending to organize a stack of folded towels in my hands.

    LyraI turned sharply at the sound of the voice.Standing behind us was Agnes. Her hands were folded neatly in front of her, and her expression was stern enough to make my smile falter immediately."Oh." I sighed softly, realizing it was her, before offering her a small smile. "Good evening, Agnes.

    LyraI sat quietly on one of the garden benches, staring at the rows of roses and blooming flowers stretching ahead of me.The evening was peaceful.Birds chirped softly from the nearby trees as they settled into their nests for the night. A gentle breeze drifted through the garden, carrying the fa
