LOGINPhoenix’s life takes a disastrous turn when she wakes up in a grimy hotel room just two days before her mating ceremony. Her life is ruined, and she didn’t need a soothsayer to tell her because not only is their a lingering smell on the sheet, which indicates that she has been unfaithful, Dylan is in the hotel room yelling profanities at her. By her unexplained actions, she has become disgraced, banished, and may have sparked a war between her pack and Dylan’s. Werewolves mate for a life, and a broken mating arrangement is an unforgivable sin. At 16, Phoenix was promised to Dylan as a way to unify their packs after years of rivalry. An alliance now broken by her infidelity. Although she would have preferred to wait for her chosen mate, she has long accepted that being Dylan’s chosen mate and Luna of his pack is a fate she can endure. Now branded as a disgrace and banished, Phoenix has been replaced by her half sister as Dylan’s mate. Exiled from the home she has always known, Phoenix is left to wander the forests as a rogue. Her central thought is to survive and navigate life alone whilst looking for a pack that will take her in, but she must face all her fears one at a time. Her life in exile takes an unexpected twist when she finds her true mate in the most unexpected way. How does she keep the secret of being the fated golden wolf? How does she stay away from her chosen mate to keep her secret? Will she learn to harness her powers and save her kind from a looming war with the hunters? Like her name, will she rise from the ashes?
View MoreThe sun dipped low across the horizon, casting golden streaks through the arched windows of the Beta’s wing. I’m sitting perched on the edge of my balcony railing, the gentle breeze tugging at my curls as I watch Aeron pace the garden below. He hasn’t said a word since we returned from the Lair, and I can feel the tension humming through our bond.I leap down gracefully, my boots touching the grass with practiced ease. “Aeron?” I call out to him softly. He turned at the sound of my voice, his stormy gray eyes flashing with frustration. “Mira,” he breathed, running a hand through his tousled hair. “We need to talk.” I braced myself, though Sera stirred anxiously beneath my skin. “Yeah, go on.” “I don’t think the Alpha is ever going to accept me for you.” He says bluntly, his tone quiet but heavy. “He hasn’t said much but the way he looked at me tonight, like I am some intruder threatening to tear down everything he’s built. And those questions, he is testing me.” I crossed the dis
The morning light slanted across the polished stones of the Lair, painting golden patterns against the walls as I paced just outside the main hall. My heart is beating faster than it should be. Today, Aeron will make an official appearance before my family, he is not just coming to see me as always but to see Talon, Phoenix, and Hosea. For days, whispers swirled through the pack like wolf smoke, gentle murmurs filled the hallways, and suggestive stares were cast in the training fields. Everyone is suddenly suspicious of something. My closeness with Aeron had not gone unnoticed for a single day. And now, with my new solidified position as Beta, the idea of mating stirred excitement, curiosity, and scrutiny among the pack. My shoulders straightened immediately when I entered the main hall. Talon and Phoenix are already seated at the long dining table, with Hosea at Phoenix’s side, all of them waiting in solemn anticipation. Well, so it seems. Phoenix gives me a warm smile, through h
The soft patter of morning rain fades into the background as I step out of my quarters and into the sun-washed courtyard of the Moonstone pack house. A light breeze danced through the trees, carrying the scent of pine and new beginnings. I clutched a scroll of daily activity log under one arm, but my mind wasn't on duties today, not entirely. My thoughts keep drifting back to the warm-eyed steel-willed wolf I had met during the summit and have been talking with. The memory of his name sends a quiet thrill Through my chest. He had a presence that filled the room, his deep voice, deliberate, calm. A wolf of few words but commanding respect. Now standing in the territory that has known too much betrayal and enough softness, I knew it was time to bring into my world fully. I make my way to Talon’s quarters, where we will be reviewing patrol adjustments. Hosea is likely already there, helping to manage new initiatives. The door creaks open gently as I enter the large hall. Phoenix
The sun filters through the ancient pines as I step out of the pack house, the crisp scent of pine needles and earth grounding me. My duties as Beta had been relentless over the past few moons, but I welcomed the challenge. After Cain's betrayal had torn at the fabric of our family and almost cost Moonstone everything, I had promised myself that I would protect the pack at all costs. My brother, Talon has given me his trust, and I am not going to waste it.Still, I had never imagined that my path of duty would lead me to him. Aeron! His name sends a flutter through my chest every time I think of it. I could still see him clearly in my mind, how he stood tall and unintimidated, representing the Hollowpine pack at the recent leader's summit. His silver hair had shimmered under the sun, and his moss-green eyes had held an ancient wisdom that made my pulse race. We had met by chance, no, by fate, I like to think, when I had entered the large clearing set up for Beta dialogues. I had be
