I summoned the pack doctor. “Is everything okay with her?” I asked.
“Yes, your majesty. Some of her systems are weak and dehydrated, but we’ve given her adequate drips and sleeping medication to calm her nerves… she should wake up soon,” he explained. I nodded, dismissing him.
I bathed, washed my hair, and changed into a fresh set of clothes.
I walked to my office and gathered the evidence proving her parents’ innocence. I needed to pay a visit to the Red Scarred Pack.
“I will follow you,” Shane said as he entered.
“You shouldn’t. You’re just recovering,” I replied. I could handle this alone. Shane’s role was to always be by my side, supporting me, but I didn’t want to exhaust him—he had his own family to attend to.
“I should. This is the time to seek justice. I want to be there,” he insisted, and I eventually agreed.
We mounted our horses and rode toward the Red Scarred Pack. At the border, we were stopped.
“Your identity!” Shane handed over our badges, and they immediately bowed. Their hands shook; this was the first time they would see me. I smirked and rode on to the packhouse.
“We need to see your Alpha,” Shane said as we dismounted. They were shocked—we had arrived during a council meeting. Fortunately, we walked in just in time.
The Alpha approached. “We should talk inside?” he asked, but I waved him off.
“No need. We should settle this discord here.” I handed him the documents, and he went through them.
“We know we have wronged them…” he began, but I cut him off.
“I didn’t come here to hear you admit it. Justice should be served here, right now—before I do it myself!” I said, forcing my wolf to stay in check. We walked to the stage together, the evidence in my hand.
“Some months back, the former Beta Xanzius and his wife Erica were exiled to the desert due to alleged collaboration with the rogues. It has now been proven that they are innocent. Our soldiers will bring them back from the desert,” I announced before the council.
“They have already been brought back. Those who framed them must face justice!” I shouted, a note of anger in my voice.
“The general troop and head secretary should come forward!” the Alpha commanded, and the two men stepped closer to the stage.
“The only way you can save yourselves is to confess everything. I have more than enough evidence here to disprove any lies,” I said, locking eyes with them. Fear made them tremble and fidget.
“It was the head secretary who started it!” the bald general exclaimed, pointing at him. They began arguing violently. I chuckled, irritated.
“Your majesty, have mercy!” they pleaded, bowing.
“Your actions cost a life!” I said sharply. I could still feel Hazel’s heartbreak through the bond.
“They both will be exiled to the desert. Soldiers, escort them there. They will spend the rest of their lives in the desert!” I declared, fully aware they wouldn’t survive.
Justice was served, and I ensured the soldiers carried out the sentence.
*Adrian*
When I became an Alpha, I finally understood how the former Beta had been framed. I had traveled to the desert in search of them back then, but found nothing.
The head secretary and the general troop had always been a threat to the pack. Having been in the packhouse for years, they had helped build the pack alongside my father, which made it difficult to justify their actions. But today, justice was perfectly served—they were exiled to the desert, finally facing the consequences of their betrayal.

TEMPTING THE DARK MAN Chapter 46
The final chapter The pack celebration lasted for three days. From the moment the news of the Alpha heir spread, wolves from distant territories arrived — some on horseback, some in royal convoys, some by foot, each bringing gifts, blessings, and promises of loyalty to the newborn prince of the pack. The palace courtyard was transformed into a sea of lanterns and silver banners, the moon symbol glowing everywhere. Hazel stood beside Orion at the entrance of the hall, Rowan resting in her arms, wrapped in the white blanket her mother had woven for him. The cheers of the pack rose like thunder. Then Hazel saw them. Adrian and Mira stepped forward from the crowd, a little girl standing between them, her tiny hand clutched in Mira’s gown. The child’s dark curls bounced as she looked around with wide curious eyes. “Mira…” Hazel whispered. They met halfway, Hazel handing Rowan carefully to her mother before pulling Mira into a warm embrace. “I missed you,” Hazel said. Mira smiled
TEMPTING THE DARK MAN Chapter 45
*Hazel* I lay on the hospital bed feeling both weak and strangely strengthened, as if something inside me had shifted forever. “Congratulations to us,” Ayla’s voice echoed inside my mind. I rolled my eyes, not in the mood for her games. “You shouldn’t mess with my mental health, Ayla. You weren’t there when that servant was trying to hurt me.” She laughed softly. “Exactly. I wanted you to face her yourself. And be careful, Hazel — our baby boy is still fragile.” I froze. “Baby… boy?” I whispered. “Ayla, don’t joke about this.” But she was already fading away. “You’ll see,” she said, leaving me with a racing heart and too many thoughts. Moments later, Orion walked in with a smile so wide it looked like he had just conquered the world. He leaned down and kissed my forehead. “Congratulations to us,” he said again. My eyes widened. “You too?” He laughed. “The doctor told me. We’re having a baby.” The room felt like it was glowing. I wrapped my arms around him, laughing and cry
TEMPTING THE DARK MAN Chapter 44
*Hazel* Life had been good for a while. I had grown closer to Ayla, learning to control myself and protect my emotions. I had become stronger and more powerful. I often wondered if being Luna was truly worth it, especially when my personal life felt overwhelming. But I soon realized that without stability in my own life, I could never properly lead the pack as its Luna. So I became more consistent — checking on the servants, attending to their needs, visiting the pack’s children at their schools, and taking part in pack activities. It was exhausting at first, but I eventually found it enjoyable and always looked forward to it. Sometimes I even accompanied my mother when she delivered her handmade gifts and artwork. Today had been especially busy, and my body felt unusually weak. I decided to return early. I mindlinked Bella and Frost — the new servant who had replaced Mira. She had passed the final test and earned her position. While Bella arranged my room, I asked Frost to escor
TEMPTING THE DARK MAN Chapter 43
*Orion* We hid within the bushes until night fell, waiting for the right moment to strike. This was the final mission — to eliminate their packhouse. They had become a plague to the surrounding packs: attacking borders, killing hunters, and committing unforgivable crimes against innocent wolves, especially young females. Many had tried to track them, but they were clever, hiding near the desert where no pack dared to remain for long. Tonight, it ended. When the moon stood high, I ignited the paper in my hand and sent it drifting toward the roof of the packhouse, channeling my power into the flame. The fire spread swiftly. The night glowed with heat and light as the structure was swallowed whole. *Hazel* We stood together and watched. Watched the home of monsters collapse into ash. Watched years of fear burn away. Watched justice take its final breath. No rogue pack remained. My heart was heavy — but for the first time since my father’s death, it was steady. Jus
TEMPTING THE DARK MAN Chapter 42
*Hazel* The decision was made before the sun reached its peak. We would return to the desert. The desert that had swallowed my parents’ hope. The desert that hid the rogues from every pack. The desert that would now expose their sins. My mother stood beside me as we prepared. She was quiet, but there was a fire in her eyes I had never seen before. Not grief. Not fear. Resolve. “They always passed through the southern ridge,” she finally said. Orion lifted his head. “You’re certain?” “Yes. If I saw the one who killed my husband. I would recognize him anywhere.” My chest tightened. The wound in my heart reopened — but this time, it bled purpose. We rode before nightfall. The desert air was heavy and cruel, but we pushed on. Wolves shifted when needed. The sand cut at our legs, the wind clawed at our faces, yet none of us slowed. We followed the route my mother remembered. Every turn… every ridge… until at last— “There,” she whispered. Her hand trembled as she poin
TEMPTING THE DARK MAN Chapter 41
*Hazel* I woke up the next morning feeling the warmth of Orion beside me. The sunlight streamed faintly through the curtains, and I could hear the soft breathing of his wolf echoing in my mind. I stretched languidly, smiling at the scent of him filling the room. My legs were still sore from yesterday, but my body craved him again. “Morning, my lady,” he murmured, nudging me with his nose playfully. I giggled and pounced on him, tangling my fingers in his hair, tugging him closer. He growled low in his throat, rolling us both onto the bed. My hands roamed his body while his hands kneaded mine, the heat building quickly. After several stolen kisses and soft moans, we finally disentangled, laughing breathlessly. I slipped into the bathroom, my body aching but yearning for normalcy. The water cascaded over me, washing away yesterday’s tension. Orion was nowhere near silent either, teasing me through the steam, catching my attention with glances and fleeting touches. I dressed in a sim
