로그인Elena The metallic scent of the maid's blood that had been haunting the edges of my senses quickened the moment I stepped outside the storeroom, and my gaze followed the blood prints trailing across the ground. My heartbeat immediately picked up as Crystal's claim flashed through my mind. Could it really be a rogue? But, this is CrestStone Pack. The second strongest pack. How foolish could a rogue be to come in here and commit murder? ‘Maybe not foolish, but fearless,’ Crystal purred, nudging forward. ‘Or maybe even in pack.’ ‘Those beasts aren't so fearful when they're in numbers, Elena.’ I flinched, fear twisting in my stomach at Crystal's words. Wait. Crystal knew this? The fact that the murderer could be in numbers. Yet she was willing to lure us—or still, me into this deadly mission. Wow. How convenient of her to put our lives at risk. But then, Crystal's voice came low inside my head, dismantling all my quickly rising apprehension. ‘Stop,’ she ordered and I com
CrestStone Pack, Celebration Hall room. Elena “Never. I’d never, Lyra.” I cut through her words, taken aback. My shoulders dropped and I could hear the faint disappointed sigh of the other maids drift through the air.Persuasion mission failed woefully.The hair at the back of my neck rose as Lyra's furious eyes narrowed, her gaze burning into mine.She held no high authority over me, and I guess she could also feel it. Otherwise, that seething gaze was enough to make me lower my eyes and bare my neck toward her. Regardless of being called a runt since birth—I have Alpha blood running through my veins, a middle-aged Head Maid is nothing to make me shiver in fear. Except that a fight challenge would leave me in the pool of my own blood.Might not get lucky…as I was with Mr Harris.Then, Lyra's brows relaxed, and her seething gaze flicked away before returning to me at once. “And what the hell are you still waiting for, runt?” My eyes widened.Her voice was sharp and concise. Yet,
CrestStone Pack, Alpha Scarlett Pack House.Elena “I never thought you'd attend the ceremony this year, Elena,” one of the maids said, smiling. I think her name is Mia. Is it?She leaned toward me, lowering her voice. “With the rogue incident and stuff…”Like me, Mia was a regular servitude maid sent to high-ranking Packs requiring assistance. Except that she was an Omega from a far-away small pack. I smiled back at her. Attending?As if. “I’m so glad to see you are unharmed,” she added, smiling once again.Always genuine. “Yeah… Thanks, Mia.” I nodded. The girl let out a soft laugh, while her smile grew wider. “It's Margaret, not Mia.” She corrected, and for a second, embarrassment flushed through me.I opened my mouth to apologize, but the words were quickly slammed back down my throat when the door burst open suddenly.With a scowl, I let out an audible groan at the voice echoing through the large hall.I turned back, staring at the figure storming toward me. “What the hell
Logan “Elena Lockwell… Hmm. Interesting.” I looked up from the scroll in my hands, across the maroon-colored surface to the twelve Elders of the Pack seated around the table. I had chosen this particular subject as an exam for a reason. The Unison of all the Packs has flourished in countless areas of civilization—from the invention of sawmills that allow us to put the forest trees to greater use, to the extraction of shiny stones from the soil and their refinement into valuable treasures…and many more. However, we've not quite accomplished the same in the Healthcare section. Normally, we werewolves don't require treatment from herbs or plants. We were already blessed with exceptionally fast healing ability, bestowed upon us centuries ago by the Moon Goddess herself—one of the traits that makes our kind stand out the most amongst every other species on the earth. Sadly, I'd spent decades of my life on the warfront—fighting packs that rebelled against the Unison of all werewolves,
Elena.“Oh yeah, I did.”And I'd do it again. Over and over again. Anyone certainly would… after hearing someone they had once endlessly loved for years say that killing them would be for the best. “Elena...” he took a step closer again in an attempt to touch me.But I stepped backward. “Don't call my name, Thorne.” “You don't mean that,” he let out an exasperated breath, gritting his teeth as he once again forced himself to hold back.“Oh yeah, Thorne. I meant every god-damned word I said!”The pressure in my chest grew so tight that it brought a rush of tears to my eyes. But I held it back. I wouldn't let Brandon see any weak side of me to exploit ever again. Then, he looked past my shoulder, towards the closed door as though he was avoiding my gaze. Slowly, he turned back to me, his hands raking violently through his hair before he rasped a clenched fist onto the wooden bookshelf before him. The action sent many neatly packed books tumbling from the shelf.My brow furrowed in s
Elena “C’mon in and I'll tell you, Elena,” he said, his voice solemn, his eyes watching me expectantly as he waited for me to step toward him.However, I know the man before me too well.Too well to know…that I ought to be afraid. I ought to run from his warm but calculating gesture. He had betrayed me not just once; surely, he wouldn’t hesitate to finish Mr Harris' failed assignment himself.My pulse jumped, and I bit hard on my lower lip, trying to urge myself out of the indecision pulling me in two different directions—run or stay and get the truth…a worthy explanation out of him. Yet, I wanted to give in to Brandon’s demand so badly, that my knee ached with the tension from his authority. But the part of me that had been betrayed over and over again, humiliated and hurt felt Brandon's authority was unworthy to stand firm over my decision. If I gave in now, I'd be giving in not just to him but also to his fucking Alpha Prince authority and sadly I wouldn't win in this confrontat
Logan A wide grin spread across my face as I chopped the deer meat into pieces. I couldn't help but think of the girl— Elena. As much as I wished to get her image off my mind.Her pretty brow that stood right above… those silver eyes, her silky brown hair and above all— her beautiful smile. They c
LoganThe young warrior wanted to hold onto my hands as they gripped his collar firmly but with a pound of my Alpha authority, his hands voluntarily jerked down despite his will to break free. He choked after a few coughs that sent his face reddening in pain as the course wafted over his face. He
Elena“Open up, little one!” I heard a masculine voice called out, the huskiness resonating deep inside my ears.…The man from Crescent Moon Night? My ears twitched at the sense of who possessed the low, husky voice. A shiver scurried down my spine as the realization sank inside my belly— the man I
Elena “Were you hurt anywhere?” Brandon asked, his stern gaze rolling over my body, almost piercing a hole on my skin. I hesitated for a bit before I finally found my word. “Nothing serious enough for you to worry about,” I said, disbelief lingering over my face as I stared at him blankly.Did Br
