Orion’s POV

I never imagined I’d be lucky enough to meet Ember. She was like a rare diamond, once lost and broken, but still shining brightly in each of her pieces. That was her; she never backed down, no matter what life threw her way. She was never bored; she was always pushing forward. The first time we met, I saw how fragile her heart was, as if it could shatter at any moment.

I was lucky enough to meet her and gain her trust. Over time, our conversations became more frequent until one day

  • Rejected by the Alpha, Claimed by the Crown   The Face of a Fallen God

    Ember Frost’s POVI had never witnessed magic like this before.Streams of power tore across the altar, each spell more unsettling than the last. My pulse hammered in my ears as I watched. For the first time, I understood why ancient sorcerers had been feared for centuries.Compared to this, the magic most werewolf elders wielded felt almost ordinary. Powerful, yes, but familiar.Nothing behaved the way it should have. Attacks that looked certain to hit somehow missed. Others vanished before they could reach her. No matter how closely I watched, I couldn't figure out how she was doing it.Around me, every werewolf remained tense. Not a single person dared lower their guard.The black mist never stayed still. It drifted around the High Priestess in slow, restless waves, sometimes concealing her before revealing her again. The sight of it made me uneasy.What frightened me most was how little effort she seemed to be using.Attacks that should have forced anyone onto the defensive were b

  • Rejected by the Alpha, Claimed by the Crown   The Devouring of Souls

    Ember Frost’s POV"When your souls merge with His divine power, you will never be separated from Him. His strength becomes your strength. His eternity becomes your eternity."Her eyes gleamed with fanatical devotion."You wished for eternal life, did you not?"An uncomfortable silence followed.No one agreed with her, but no one seemed brave enough to challenge her either.The smile on her face faded slightly."You wanted rewards without sacrifice," she said, her gaze sweeping across the crowd. "You wanted blessings without paying the price. How selfish."I almost laughed.The woman was preparing to feed them to a nightmare from another realm, and somehow they were the selfish ones.Then she raised a hand.At first, nothing happened. A few confused glances passed through the crowd before several fanatics suddenly stiffened. Their bodies began moving toward the High Priestess against their will, their expressions twisting with panic as they struggled to resist.A chill settled in my st

  • Rejected by the Alpha, Claimed by the Crown   The Offering of Souls

    Ember Frost's POVI threw myself at the High Priestess, but I wasn't fast enough.She slipped away before I could reach her, moving with an ease that made my stomach drop. Her eyes flicked toward me for the briefest second, almost amused, and then she spoke the final words of the incantation.The world changed.A column of black energy shot into the sky.The force of it hit me like a physical blow. The stone beneath my feet trembled, my ears rang, and for a second I couldn't breathe.Then the entire altar fell still.The battle that had filled the chamber with noise and chaos vanished in an instant. Wolves stopped fighting. Fanatics stopped running. Even the injured struggling across the ground froze where they were.A cold shiver raced down my spine, and every muscle in my body locked up.Something had arrived.I didn't know what it was, but the dread that swept through me felt older than fear. I had faced rogues, monsters, and death before. This was different.My mind was still tryi

  • Rejected by the Alpha, Claimed by the Crown   Blood on the Altar

    Ember Frost’s POVThe order was pointless. Most of them were already on their knees, heads lowered and backs bent, looking more like livestock waiting for slaughter than worshippers waiting for a blessing.Then the sky changed.The clouds slowly drifted apart, and moonlight spilled down onto the altar, turning the entire stone platform a pale silver. A murmur passed through the crowd, low and uncertain, but it didn’t last long.The High Priestess drew a knife without hesitation and sliced her palm. Blood dripped onto the stone as she began to chant, low and steady at first, then rising with each word.I didn’t understand any of it, but something about the sound made my skin crawl. It felt wrong in a way I couldn’t explain, like I wasn’t supposed to be hearing it at all.Then a scream cut through the night.The chanting stuttered for half a beat, and every head snapped toward the darkness.Something burst out from the edge of the forest.Wolves.The order was pointless. Most of them wer

  • Rejected by the Alpha, Claimed by the Crown   The Hour Before Dawn

    Ember Frost's POV Something kept bothering me, but I couldn’t tell what it was.I kept glancing around, trying to catch whatever was wrong, but nothing looked out of place. Everything was exactly as it had been.Maybe I really was just imagining it.Honestly, I wouldn’t have been surprised.I was freezing, starving, injured, and trapped on an altar in the middle of nowhere. If my mind decided to give up before the rest of me, that would honestly make sense.Still, the feeling wouldn't go away.Neither did the pain.Everything hurt. The cuts across my skin burned, the bruises ached, and the wounds that were supposed to be healing felt like they'd stopped halfway through the job. Just standing there was exhausting.I was starving too. My stomach had been empty for so long that the hunger didn't even come in waves anymore. It was just there, gnawing at me constantly.Still… none of that was what bothered me most.Something felt wrong.I tried to brush it off as exhaustion, but the longe

  • Rejected by the Alpha, Claimed by the Crown   The Waiting Ritual

    Elder Harriet’s POVI wasn't concerned about the history, though.What bothered me was something else.The location.The old witch settlement wasn't anywhere near this place.That made no sense.When we'd searched the ruins, we'd found journals, magical tools, and sacred objects scattered everywhere. Many of them were valuable enough that no witch would willingly abandon them.Yet they had.Why?If they had enough time to travel all the way here, they should have had enough time to recover at least some of their belongings.Unless something stopped them.The thought lingered in the back of my mind.Before I could follow it any further, voices drifted through the tunnel.Everyone froze.Orion lifted a hand at once.The group stopped moving.We listened.The voices were close. Close enough that we could hear individual words.Slowly, we moved toward a bend in the passage and pressed ourselves against the wall.Voices drifted toward us from somewhere beyond the bend in the passage."How

  • Rejected by the Alpha, Claimed by the Crown   Ice and Insight

    Ember Frost’s POVWhat struck me most wasn’t what had happened—but how my parents reacted to it.They weren’t shocked. Not even a little. If anything, they looked like people who had been expecting this day for a long time. There was a quiet understanding in their eyes… and, strangely enough, relie

    Ember Frost’s POVI woke to a wide, empty stretch of land that seemed to go on forever. The grass was short and dry, pale in places, and it bent softly whenever the wind passed through. Between the blades, small glimmers of yellow drifted and flickered, like dead firefliesFor a while I just lay th

    Ember Frost’s POVWe didn’t talk at all, even as we made our way onto the plane.Orion still acted polite. He took my suitcase, held the door, and did everything a gentleman should do, except speak. He didn’t even glance my way. It felt worse than shouting.I kept hoping for some kind of rescue, so
