Zahra's POV

Floating, I feel like I'm suspended on a soft cloud gliding through warm air, encased in silk. This floaty, silky sensation is warm, comfortable, and weirdly safe—a stark contrast to the norm. I’ve never felt anything like this. If this is what dying feels like, I might be okay with it.

As clarity slowly infiltrates my mind, the mist morphs into distinct shapes, and a forest clearing bathed in moonlight materializes around me A beam of moonlight in the centre intensifies, the air around it shimmering with a silver glow. Standing before me is a figure cloaked in a robe shimmering with the colours of the night sky, radiating an otherworldly glow.

She smiles, and when she speaks, it’s like a melody. “Zahra,” her voice is both a caress and a command.

My heart does a weird skip. Holy shit its the moon goddess! "Am I dead?" It’s the first thing that tumbles out of my mouth.

Selene smiles gently, a soothing presence that calms my racing heart. "No, my brave child, you're very much

    Zahra's PO“Wow!” Felix’s voice cuts through the pounding in my ears. I glance up, clutching the stitch in my side, and see the stunned expressions on the faces around me. Well, except for Uncle Nicholas and Tobias, who are both grinning like they’ve just won a bet.“What was my time?” I ask between gasps, directing my question at Baxter. He doesn’t respond right away, still looking at me weirdly.“We’ll check in a minute,” he finally says, shaking his head in amazement. “Not many people finish this course. It’s designed to be nearly impossible. Well done, Zahra.”Huh. I assumed it was just impossible for shorty me, but I guess even the taller wolves struggle. When you’re a midget, you learn to get creative. I smile and shrug, trying to play it cool despite the fact that

    Zahra's POV‘Stay calm, Z. You’ve got this, and I’m here with you.’Zanthe’s voice is steady and reassuring. Honestly, where would I be without her?“Morning, little one. Did you sleep well?” Tobias’s voice pulls me out of my thoughts. His tone is quiet, almost intimate, and I notice Jasper shooting him a look. What’s that about?“Yeah, good, thanks,” I reply with a small smile.Tobias gestures to the two massive men standing nearby. “I’d like you to meet Elite Trainers Eduardo,” he says, indicating the larger of the two, “and Blake.” The shorter one scowls slightly as he offers his hand. Great, he looks thrilled to be here.“Eduardo, Blake, this is Zahra Larkin, Beta Female

    Zahra's POVI wake up to the warm sunlight streaming into my room, just as I’d expected. I knew I’d regret not drawing the curtains last night, but honestly, I don’t care. It’s a beautiful day, and excitement is bubbling under my skin.The thought of possibly seeing Zach and the others today adds to my anticipation. Even if I don’t run into them immediately, I know I will at some point, and that eases a little of my tension. But the dinner conversation from last night keeps playing in my head, stirring up fresh nerves. I know why I’m here—to be assessed and trained—but the thought of doing it in front of the entire Royal Ranked teams makes my stomach churn. I can’t shake the image of them watching my every move, silently judging whether I’m good enough to belong here. No pressure or anything.I push those thoughts aside and pull on my workout clothes—black cycling shorts, a hot pink sports bra, and a loose white sleeveless shirt. It’s functional and comfortable, which is all I need ri

    Zahra's POVWhat the fuck is happening?!Zanthe is preening smugly in my head, practically crowing that this is where we belong.Conceited wolf.Meanwhile, I’m sweating enough to fill a small swimming pool.Everyone takes their seats. Tobias sits on my other side, with Queen Sophie directly opposite me. The rest of the ranked members and their families fill in around the table in a casual, relaxed way. There’s no rigid seating plan, which is refreshing given the grandeur of everything else here.“So, Zahra, how’s the Blood Moon gang getting on?” Felix asks once everyone is settled. “Did they arrive for camp today?”“They’re good, thanks,” I reply. “Yes, we all drove in convoy. I expect they’re settling in now.”“Excellent. I’ll go say hi tomorrow before everything kicks off.” He smiles at

    Zahra's POVOh, my Goddess, I feel like my feet haven’t touched the floor since I arrived. Alice is like a bubbly tornado—funny, energetic, and seemingly incapable of pausing for breath. She hasn’t stopped talking since we entered my room, and I’m pretty sure she has a massive crush on Tobias. Her constant questions about him make me squirm a little, so I do my best to steer the conversation elsewhere whenever possible.Lunch was lively. The whole family was warm and welcoming, peppering me with questions that made me feel like they genuinely wanted to know more about me. It’s bittersweet, realizing what I’ve missed out on by not knowing them sooner. Just another lovely hand-me-down from thefucktard Beta.After lunch, Alice took me on a tour of the West Wing. The library left me speechless, though the gym—with its state-of-the-ar

  • Scarred by fate    Chapter 170

    Zarah's POVAfter a lovely evening giggling with Sienna and Abby, I barely slept. My excitement was through the roof. I can’t wait to see the palace, test myself against some truly skilled opponents, and experience the Alpha King’s training camp. At least, I hope I get to go. No one has explicitly said I’m allowed, but surely… right? If not, does that mean I won’t see the guys all summer? I suppose that wouldn’t be much different from every other summer. Still, I hope I’m included.As soon as the first rays of sunlight peek through my window, I give up on sleep. I get up, make my bed, and check through my wardrobe one last time to make sure I’ve packed everything. After a quick shower, I dress in a pair of white denim shorts and a light blue T-shirt with delicate, see-through lace detailing over the shoulders and neckline. It’s practical but also a little girly. I’ve been enjoying dressing more femininely now that I’m not stuck wearing all my brother’s hand-me-downs.I pull my hair in
