DAISY'S POV

"You brought Lila out to the field? How did I not realize that was her?" I asked him, my voice sharp.

"She's one of the most talented witches we have," Dexter replied. "She masked her identity so you wouldn't know she was the one who murdered the newest love of your life. She was never going to hurt you. The only person allowed to strike you directly was me. You pushed me to that decision, and I haven't been able to live with myself since. I know I've done a lot of things to drive you to where you are now, but if I could go back and change it all, I would. I would give anything to undo what I did—to stop myself from handing you over to Zordon," he said, his voice cracking.

"Handing me over?" I repeated, laughing bitterly. "You say it so lightly, like it means nothing. Is that how you justify it to yourself at night so you can sleep? You keep lying to yourself, and it makes sense because it's you we're talking about. You never take responsibility for your actions, and that'

    ISLA'S POVDaisy walked away, and I immediately saw the relief flood Xavier's face. It was almost pathetic, how easily her presence rattled him. I smiled to myself, savouring the small victory. The moment she disappeared from sight, he rushed toward me, burying his face into the curve of my neck.I hated that a part of me still ached for him, even as the rest of me seethed with hatred. I had hoped to talk some sense into him, but if that failed, I was prepared for the next time we met — and I would kill him without hesitation.I forced myself to relax in his arms. He must have felt the shift because his grip around my waist loosened. He breathed me in, as he always used to, clearly comforted by the scent he loved. A small pang tugged at my chest. I missed that too.He eventually let me go, brushing his fingers through my hair. I didn't flinch. I wasn't afraid of him. Not yet. But I kept my guard up — he had once tried to kill Zordon. I will never forget that."I've missed you so much,

    ZORDON'S POVI called her once. No answer.Panic spiked in my chest as I looked at Stefan. Isla never ignored my calls — not unless something was wrong. Stefan reached for his phone, but I held up my hand, stopping him cold. We couldn't tip them off by making more noise.I called again. My grip tightened on the phone as I muttered a quick prayer.This time, she answered on the second ring."Is that him?" I heard Xavier's voice bark in the background. "Perfect timing. How fucking convenient.""Isla," I growled into the phone. "What the hell is going on? Are you both okay? Is Daisy with you?""We're fine, Zordon," she replied quickly. "We'll be heading back soon. Daisy went to see Dexter alone — thought they deserved privacy. But she stormed outside. I'm almost done here.""You let Daisy go off alone?" My voice was low, controlled but simmering with anger. "In enemy territory? Everyone wants her. Find her. Now.""She can handle herself, Zordon," Isla shot back, steady as ever."I don't

    DAISY'S POVI walked down the hallway, heading back to the sitting room where I'd left Isla. If she wasn't done with her conversation, I was fully prepared to drag her away from it. I didn't care anymore. But just as I turned the corner, I stopped in my tracks. Lila was there.She wasn't wearing a mask this time. She stood with her real face, her own face.I froze, words caught in my throat. At one point, she'd been my best friend.Lila was a witch. When we first met, she was practicing revival magic on dying flowers in the garden. Even though she looked way younger, I was only a year older, but it never mattered. I wasn't a witch and couldn't do magic, which made everything she did all the more fascinating. I used to sit and watch her bring dead petals back to life. Eventually, she noticed me, smiled, and waved me over.Witches and wolves were never meant to mix, but with her, it was different. Her parents didn't care that I was a wolf. Neither did she. She welcomed me with open arms

    ZORDON'S POVI sat on her bed, and she looked at me. I saw it in her eyes. Something dark and distant. I just didn't know what to say or do. I couldn't let her know that I knew she had been spelled. If she realized that, she could put everyone in danger. Daisy was powerful enough to take down the entire wolf force I had built. She was that strong.I reached out and touched her hand. It was cold. She was a wolf, her body was supposed to regulate temperature, but not now. Not like this. I took a deep breath and gave her a soft smile."I just came to check on you. I didn't get the chance to say goodbye this morning, and I want you to know how sorry I am for that," I began. "I was scared... scared that Dexter might convince you to stay. I let my emotions get the best of me. I should've handled things better and I didn't. I just can't imagine my life without you. Making sure you're okay... that's more important to me than anything.""You don't have to apologize for anything," she said flat

    DEXTER'S POVI watched her walk out of the study. I knew she wouldn't listen, so I had already put some precautions in place. Zordon had his claws deep inside her, and the only way she'd break free was if she killed him herself. I smiled, knowing it was only a matter of hours before the unthinkable happened.I sat patiently, waiting for the rumor to spread like wildfire. Xavier walked into the study and sat down, looking at me with that smug expression, clearly impressed with himself. I stared back, wondering if he truly knew what I was up to. Bringing the witches into this war had been his idea, but he had no clue they had brainwashed an entire pack to follow my orders. Xavier wasn't exactly a man of high morals, but I had a feeling he wouldn't agree with that part of the plan. That's why it was better to keep him in the dark.There was no other way.He told me to be willing to do whatever it took to win this war—and that's exactly what I did. I did whatever was necessary.

    LILA'S POVAfter bumping into Daisy in the hallway, a heavy guilt settled in my chest. Something about her words... they felt real. Too real. A part of me wanted to believe her. But that couldn't be true, Dexter would never lie to me. No matter the situation, he always told me the truth.The truth was that Daisy ran off to Zordon. She hated Dexter for making Kendra his Luna, but what choice did he have? He told me he got drunk, mistook Kendra for Daisy, and slept with her. They conceived a child, though the baby was lost. Still, he couldn't let his blood exist outside the pack, unprotected. It was too dangerous. He chose the future and safety of his child over his own happiness. Any reasonable man would've done the same.He made a mistake, and now he was paying the price. But he didn't run from it. He didn't deny the child. He stepped up, held his head high, and accepted his fate. That made him the hero, sacrificing his own joy for the greater good.Yes, it wasn't an easy choice. But

    KENDRA'S POVWhat was I even expecting?I sniffled as I lay on my bed, scrolling through my phone in a desperate attempt to distract myself from what had just happened in the hallway. Of course, he was going to choose her over me. There was no version of this story where he would look at both of us and pick me. Never.This was supposed to be a mission. Just a mission. I was supposed to help my father ruin him. I knew it was a bad idea from the start. But Dexter’s charm... it worked its magic on me. Now here I was, hopelessly in love with a man who was still obsessed with another woman.I couldn't do this anymore.I wanted to go home. I wanted to call Tony and tell him I'd made up my mind—that I wanted to be with him. That I was done holding out hope for Dexter. Done waiting for him to change. I was tired of being humiliated. Tired of being a placeholder in his life. He was never going to love me the way I needed him to.I wasn't going to keep stroking his ego or warming his bed like I

    ZORDON'S POVI held her tightly, feeling her life slowly drain away in my arms. The pain she felt became mine, sinking deep into my chest. There was no way to explain why I had to drive a dagger into her heart—no version of this story where my actions could be justified. But I had been faced with an impossible choice: her life, or the lives of everyone in this pack.I carried her to my room, gently placing her on my bed. I sat beside her, numb and silent. Moments later, Isla entered with Stefan and Dustin. No one spoke. No one could.We had just managed to contain another attack from the Pinewood pack. I was reaching my breaking point. One more push, and I'd stop holding back. Retaliation was becoming inevitable."Since no one wants to ask the obvious question, I will," Isla said coldly. "Why the hell do you have a spelled dagger in your room? Where did you even get something like that?""It belonged to my mother," I replied quietly. "A witch made it for her, specifically for me. She

    DAISY'S POVAlpha Godfrey was standing there, looking at me through marble-black eyes that shone like laser beams.My claws stayed out, my body ready to strike, but something inside me needed to know.I took a slow step forward, my voice steady despite the storm churning in my chest."Why?" I asked him. "Why are you doing this?"Godfrey didn't answer right away. He studied me with his dark and ancient eyes, like they'd seen too many winters and too much blood. He looked at me the way someone might look at an insect they couldn't quite squash, curious, detached, and completely without mercy."It's nothing personal, child," he said finally, his voice low and almost... kind. "It never was."My jaw clenched. "You're trying to kill me and take my child, and you think that's not personal?"He gave a small, cold smile. "Well, you're at war with mine, and I'm not taking it personal." He casually gestured to Kendra. A low chuckle spilled from his chest. His gaze slowly crawled to my belly, and

  • STOLEN BY THE RUTHLESS ALPHA   154: Alpha Godfrey

    DAISY'S POVZordon didn't wait.He charged forward with a growl that sent a shiver through the ground. His body twisted midair, fur ripping through skin, bones reshaping as he shifted faster than I'd ever seen. When he landed, the black wolf that emerged was massive, terrifying, and entirely focused on blood.Isla was right behind him. Her armor clanged to the ground as her body folded into itself, reshaping. Grey fur that seemed silver at first glance bloomed across her back. She hit the dirt running, a flash of steel and teeth.Then Stefan. He let out something between a battle cry and a roar as he leapt, his russet form exploding forward, golden streaks lighting his fur as he collided with a corrupted wolf mid-sprint.Just like that, the front line was chaos.Wolves clashed. Witches shouted spells. Steel met shadow, and blood sprayed into the night air.But I hadn't moved.I stood there, heart pounding, breath caught in my throat.She was awake.My wolf.For the first time in years

  • STOLEN BY THE RUTHLESS ALPHA   153: My Wolf Wanted To Be Set Free

    DAISY'S POVThe moment the words left my mouth, the world seemed to still.We fight now.The silence before the storm was thick and charged, as if the air itself was holding its breath. Then the roar came, with thousands of voices howling in one unified cry that echoed across the valley, shaking the ground beneath our feet.I stood at the head of the formation, the silver crest of the Deathclaw banner flapping behind me. My heart pounded with a fiery purpose. I wasn't just walking into battle. I was walking into fate.Zordon stood to my right, his tall and steady frame towering over the field like a shadow. He was one who always commanded gazes, but this time, the army's eyes weren't just on him.They were on me.The woman they'd once whispered about behind closed doors. The orphan girl, the wolfless Luna, the scorned Luna sold to pay off a pack's debts.Now I was their leader.Our leader.I raised my newly formed sword, which had runes carved into its blade by Lila herself. I demande

  • STOLEN BY THE RUTHLESS ALPHA   152: This Was Destiny

    ZORDON'S POVThe fortress burst into movement. Wolves howled. Witches began chanting. Soldiers strapped on armor, sharpened claws and blades. The heartbeat of the Deathclaw pack thundered through the stone.That's when I heard her voice."Alpha Zordon."I turned.And there she stood.Olivia. Dressed in black leathers. Her braid pulled back like it had been in her warrior days. Her chin high, shoulders squared. But it was her eyes that stopped me. Not pleading. Not angry.Resolved."You are staying," I said, uncertain whether it was a question or a statement.She nodded once. "At first... I came back for you."Isla stilled beside me."I thought maybe we could fix what was broken," Liv continued. "But I see now... some things aren't meant to be." Her eyes flicked toward Daisy, who stood nearby with a protective hand over her stomach."But if my pack is going to war," Olivia said, her voice steady, "then I'm not staying behind. I'm still a warrior. I won't watch others bleed while I hide

  • STOLEN BY THE RUTHLESS ALPHA   151: Tonight We End This

    ZORDON'S POVThere are moments in a man's life when the ground shifts beneath him, when the air stills before the storm and all he can do is brace himself for what's coming.This was one of those moments.The sky had darkened earlier than usual, thick clouds rolling in like they too sensed blood in the wind. I stood on the highest balcony of the fortress, staring out across the land that had belonged to my ancestors for generations. Deathclaw territory. Ours by birthright, kept by honour. But this wasn't just about land anymore.It was about cleansing a rot that had gone unchecked, Xavier's lies, Dexter's tyranny, and witches who thought themselves gods.Behind me, the fortress pulsed with purpose. Warriors sharpened blades. Healers bustled between rooms. Elders chanted protective spells. The scent of steel, smoke, and magic mixed in the air.Somewhere inside, Daisy was getting ready. Her heartbeat steady. Her spirit still glowing, crackling with the light of the child we nearly lost.

    JEZEBEL'S POVThe black flame candle twisted sharply.Then it screamed.I shot up from the circle, my robes brushing the stone like wings. For a second, the flame glowed bright silver then it vanished into a thin coil of smoke.But it wasn't smoke.It was cold.Ice.I rushed to the altar, my heart was pounding. The mirror I'd used for the spell was already frosting over, thin cracks of white spreading across its surface.No, this wasn't how it was supposed to go.The child's spirit that I thought was painstakingly crafted from shadow and bone, stitched with blood and forbidden runes, should've been drawn cleanly from Daisy's womb. It should've settled into Kendra without resistance. That was the plan. That was the promise.But something pushed back.I hissed and sliced open my palm again, pressing the blood to the edge of the mirror. "Show me," I snapped. "Show me her."The mist inside the glass shifted and Daisy came into view.She was on the floor, pale and trembling, her hands grip

  • STOLEN BY THE RUTHLESS ALPHA   149: Elder Elric

    ZORDON'S POVThe hall was dim and lined with silent warriors. Everyone could feel it. The coming storm, the weight of tomorrow's battle pressing on every wall, every breath. Even the torches seemed to burn more quietly, as if the flames themselves held their breath.I found Isla in the sitting room, her laugh soft, her posture relaxed as if this morning were any other. She spoke to the man draped in deep, midnight robes stitched with stars and old runes. His silver beard was braided, his presence impossible to ignore.Elder Elric.The man who recently saved my life from a poisoned dagger.He stood slowly as I entered, his every movement calm, deliberate. But his eyes were sharp and bright, held the weight of something far heavier than time."Alpha Zordon," he said, bowing slightly. "Sorry for my intrusion.""I owe you my life," I replied, inclining my head with respect. "If you say it's urgent, I listen."Isla looked between us, her expression shifting. "He says he had a vision.

    DAISY'S POVI woke up to a chill that didn't belong.It wasn't the soft kind that curled against your skin after a restless sleep. This was like ice forming inside my stomach. A creeping, unnatural frost that clawed its way through my womb like a curse reborn.My hands shot to my stomach. My breath hitched."Zordon," I whispered, panic building like thunder beneath my ribs.His arms were around me before I could cry out again. His presence always calmed the storm inside me. But not this time. His touch did nothing to chase away the cold gnawing at my core.He looked into my eyes, and I saw the shift, the fear and the helplessness."What is happening?" I asked, my voice shaking. "Why does it feel like... like my baby is turning to ice?"Zordon pressed his palm to my belly. His magic, usually soft and golden, flared faint and flickering, like a candle struggling in a windstorm. He didn't say anything right away, but I could see it on his face—he felt it too."The magic inside you," he m

    JEZEBEL'S POVThe moment I finished eating my meal, I tasted it.The air shifted.A ripple moved through the ancient bonds that tethered me to life and death. Something pulsed in the ether. I closed my eyes and inhaled deeply, savouring it like blood on the tongue.Life.Not just any life.Her life.The Moonblood's womb had stirred. The child had taken hold.A wolf blessed by the heavens... and touched by shadows.I smiled. My deal with Zordon had brought me everything I needed. His desperation had opened a door. Now, I would walk through it.I reached for my mirror, bone-framed and rimmed in hair. A cruel thing made from a dozen betrayals. I whispered Kendra's name, and the mirror flared to life.She answered on the second ring, lips already painted red like blood in bloom."Jezebel," she said, her voice sharp. "Why are you calling so late?""It's time to get you pregnant."Kendra's breath caught."Now?" she whispered. "But Dexter is getting ready for battle tomorrow.""Yes now. It's
