Zack moved quickly through the chaotic palace grounds, his arms wrapped securely around Selene’s unconscious body. Her head rested against his chest, her breathing shallow and uneven. The faint scent of her skin mixed with smoke and blood made his wolf restless. He kept his eyes sharp, scanning every shadow for more rogues as he headed toward the safer inner palace area.

His heart still raced from what he had seen. The silver glow. The power that had thrown Alpha Rafael and his men like they we

  • THE ALPHA'S CURSED BRIDE    Strength in Silence

    The next morning, Luna Astra walked down the quiet corridor toward the royal chamber, her steps light but filled with worry. She carried a small basket of fresh fruits and a new soft blanket she had finished embroidering late last night. She wanted to see how Selene was doing after the terrible fall. The poor girl had been through too much already.She knocked softly on the door. No answer. She knocked again, then gently pushed the door open.The room was empty.The bed was neatly made, but Selene was nowhere to be seen. Astra’s heart skipped a beat. She stepped inside, looking around frantically. The balcony door was closed. The bathing chamber was empty. Panic rose in her chest.“Selene?” she called, her voice trembling. She rushed back into the hallway and grabbed the nearest guard. “Go find Alpha Kai immediately! Tell him Selene is missing!”The guard ran off. Astra stood in the corridor, her hands shaking as she clutched the basket tightly. She couldn’t lose another person she c

  • THE ALPHA'S CURSED BRIDE    Her Only Hope

    Selene woke up later in the night, her eyes blinking slowly in the darkness of the royal chamber. The room was quiet, only the faint light from the moon slipping through the curtains. She had slept for a long time. Her body felt heavy, but her stomach was the one complaining now. It grumbled loudly, a sharp, empty sound that made her groan softly and press a hand against it.She sat up slowly, rubbing her eyes. All she wanted was food. Something simple. Anything to fill the hollow feeling inside her. She swung her legs off the bed, her bare feet touching the cold floor. The palace felt too still. Too empty.She walked to the door and opened it gently. The corridor outside was dark and silent. Most of the maids had already retired to their quarters. Only a few lanterns burned low on the walls, casting long shadows. Selene moved carefully, one hand resting on the wall for support as she headed toward the stairs. She planned to go down to the private living room where snacks were someti

  • THE ALPHA'S CURSED BRIDE    The Cruel Plan

    Kai sat beside the bed for a long time, watching Selene sleep. The rise and fall of her chest was steady now, her face peaceful in a way he rarely saw when she was awake. He finally stood up slowly, careful not to wake her, and walked out of the royal chamber. The door clicked shut behind him with a quiet sound.A guard was already waiting in the hallway, standing straight and respectful.“Your Highness,” the guard said, bowing low. “Luna Astra requests your presence in her chamber.”Kai gave a small nod and headed down the corridor without a word. His footsteps echoed softly against the stone floor as he made his way to his mother’s private rooms. When he pushed open the door, he found her sitting near the window, the afternoon light falling gently across her shoulders. She was embroidering tiny clothes for the baby small stitches forming delicate patterns on soft fabric. Her fingers moved fast and sure, like she had done this a thousand times before.Kai walked over and sat in the

  • THE ALPHA'S CURSED BRIDE    She Simply Fell Asleep

    Selene’s eyes opened slowly the next morning. Soft sunlight streamed through the tall windows of the royal chamber, warming the silk sheets around her. She lay still for a moment, one hand resting gently on her belly. The room felt quieter than usual. Peaceful.The door pushed open without a knock. A group of maids walked in, their steps light and careful. They bowed low the moment they saw her awake.“Good morning, Luna Selene,” the head maid said softly, her voice respectful. “We are here to help you prepare for the day.”Selene sat up slowly, surprised by how gentle they sounded. These were the same maids who used to whisper cruel things behind her back. Today, they moved around her like she was made of glass. One maid pulled back the curtains to let in more light. Another brought a basin of warm water and fresh towels. They helped her out of bed and guided her toward the bathing chamber without a single harsh word.In the bathing room, they undressed her carefully, mindful of her

  • THE ALPHA'S CURSED BRIDE    His Luna, His Pup

    The room fell into heavy silence after the healer’s words. Selene lay on the bed, her hand resting gently on her stomach. Pregnant. She was carrying a pup. The news felt like a small light in the middle of all the darkness.But Elara’s face twisted in shock and anger. She stepped forward suddenly, her voice loud and desperate.“What do you mean she is pregnant?” she burst out, staring at the healer like he had lost his mind.Luna Astra turned to her sharply. “What are you talking about, Elara?”Elara’s hands shook as she pointed at Selene. “If she is truly pregnant, she must be cheating on the Alpha! He hasn’t even touched her before. How is it possible that she is pregnant?”The words hung in the air like poison.Luna Astra’s eyes narrowed. “How do you know he hasn’t touched her before? Were you with them in their private chamber?”Elara’s face turned red. She opened her mouth and spoke without thinking. “Alpha Kai will never touch someone like her. He just married her to get the thr

  • THE ALPHA'S CURSED BRIDE    Blood And New Life

    Selene’s eyes fluttered open the next morning. Soft sunlight filtered through the tall windows of the royal chamber, casting a warm glow across the room. She felt different. The heavy fog in her head was gone. The burning pain in her arm had dulled to a faint ache. She took a slow, deep breath and realized she could breathe easily again. The poison that had been spreading through her body like fire seemed to have disappeared overnight.She turned her head slowly to the side.Kai was there.He was sitting in a chair beside the bed, his upper body slumped forward. His head rested on the edge of the mattress near her hand. His eyes were closed, dark circles visible under them. He looked exhausted, like he hadn’t slept at all. His hair was messy, and his clothes were the same ones from yesterday, wrinkled and stained with blood and dirt from the fight.Selene stared at him, unable to believe her eyes. He had stayed. He hadn’t left her alone. The big, powerful Alpha who always acted cold a

  • THE ALPHA'S CURSED BRIDE    Ashes Of Crown

    Throughout the ceremony, Selene stood silently, tears falling down her face. She remembered how kind Alpha Lysander had been to her. How he had defended her against Rafael. And now he was gone. She felt responsible. The pack's hateful stares only made it worse. Only one person noticed how truly br

  • THE ALPHA'S CURSED BRIDE    The Funeral

    The next day, the palace was wrapped in a heavy, suffocating silence. Black banners hung from every window and balcony. Servants moved quietly through the halls, their faces pale and eyes red from crying. Everyone was preparing for Alpha Lysander's funeral. Flowers were being arranged, the grand ha

  • THE ALPHA'S CURSED BRIDE    Blamed

    The three of them walked out to the carriage. Selene climbed in last, still holding the small box tightly to her chest. She sat quietly in the corner, her face calm even though her cheek was red from the slap. She looked out the window, saying nothing. Kai couldn't stop watching her. He noticed h

  • THE ALPHA'S CURSED BRIDE    Unwanted

    The carriage stopped in front of Selene's family home later that afternoon. It was a big, beautiful mansion that showed the wealth of her parents. As soon as Kai stepped out, Selene's parents rushed outside with wide smiles on their faces. "Prince Kai!" her father exclaimed happily, bowing deeply.
