“Run, Amanda!”

My father’s voice tore through the night like a thunderclap.

I tried.

Goddess, I tried.

But my legs betrayed me.

The old injury that had plagued me for months burned with every step, sending sharp pain shooting through my body. My limp slowed me down, turning every stride into a struggle. Behind me, screams echoed across the battlefield, mixing with the clash of steel and the snarls of wolves.

The Academy of the Moon was burning.

Flames climbed the stone walls that had once felt untouchable. Smoke darkened the sky, swallowing the stars above.

I stumbled over a fallen branch and nearly crashed to the ground.

My chest heaved.

My vision blurred.

The scent of blood was everywhere.

Blood.

Death.

Decay.

The smell was so strong it coated my tongue.

I forced myself forward.

Just a little farther.

Just a little more.

My father appeared ahead of me, his clothes torn and stained crimson. The sight alone made my heart stop.

I had never seen my father look that afraid.

Not once.

Not until now.

His eyes locked onto mine.

Fear.

Pure fear.

"Amanda!" he shouted again. "Run!"

A growl echoed through the forest.

Deep.

Ancient.

Wrong.

The earth trembled beneath my feet.

Then everything went silent.

Even the wind stopped.

Every instinct inside me screamed.

Danger.

I slowly turned around.

A massive shadow stepped from between the trees.

The rogue Alpha.

His black cloak dragged across the ground like darkness itself. His silver eyes glowed unnaturally in the moonlight, and the cruel smile stretching across his face sent ice through my veins.

This wasn't a man.

This was a monster.

The wolf who had spent years searching for me.

The wolf who had slaughtered entire packs for information.

The wolf who believed I held the key to something terrible.

His gaze swept over me possessively.

Like I already belonged to him.

Like I was prey.

"There you are," he murmured.

The smile on his face widened.

"You've been very difficult to find, little healer."

My heart pounded painfully against my ribs.

I took a step back.

Then another.

He laughed.

The sound made my blood run cold.

"You don't even know what you are, do you?" he asked softly.

His eyes glittered with madness.

"All these years they called you cursed."

He moved closer.

"They feared you."

Closer.

"They mocked you."

Closer.

"And yet none of them realized the truth."

My wolf whimpered inside me.

I could barely breathe.

The rogue Alpha stopped only a few feet away.

"You were never cursed."

His smile turned vicious.

"You were chosen."

A chill raced down my spine.

Chosen.

The word felt wrong.

Dangerous.

Before I could react, his hand shot out and wrapped around my wrist.

Pain exploded through my body.

A scream rose inside me, trapped behind lips that could never form the sound.

Golden light burst beneath my skin.

The rogue Alpha's eyes widened with triumph.

"There it is," he whispered.

The forest seemed to hold its breath.

"The power of life itself."

Terror gripped me.

No.

No.

No.

I didn't understand my abilities.

I didn't understand the strange healing gift that had awakened inside me.

But I understood one thing.

If this wolf got what he wanted, countless people would die.

The stories whispered among the elders suddenly made sense.

The missing graves.

The stolen corpses.

The dark magic.

He didn't want to heal the living.

He wanted to command the dead.

An army that would never tire.

Never surrender.

Never die.

And somehow...

I was the key.

"You belong to me now," he said.

His grip tightened.

My knees nearly buckled.

If he took me, I would never come back.

Not whole.

Not alive.

Maybe not even human.

Tears burned behind my eyes.

I thought of my father.

The only person who had ever truly believed in me.

I thought of the Academy.

Of the friends I had finally begun to make.

Of the life I was only just starting to build.

And then I thought of him.

My mate.

The Alpha who looked at me like I was both a blessing and a challenge.

The Alpha who made my heart race.

The Alpha who didn't yet know how much he meant to me.

What if I never saw him again?

What if he realized who I was and rejected me?

What if he hated me like everyone else once had?

Fear clawed at my chest.

But beneath it, something stronger stirred.

Determination.

I wasn't the frightened girl who had arrived at the Academy months ago.

I wasn't the cursed mute everyone pitied.

And I wasn't going to die here.

I would survive.

I would fight.

I would become stronger.

No matter what it cost me.

Then—

A powerful growl shattered the silence.

The rogue Alpha stiffened.

The bond inside me flared.

Every nerve in my body came alive.

And a voice rumbled through the darkness behind me.

One word.

One impossible word.

"Mate."

My breath caught.

The rogue Alpha's smile vanished.

And my world shattered.

  • THE ALPHA'S FATED MUTE   THE SILENT MATE

    Yesterday was over and it was another day.Another day for me to experience a new bout of humiliation.Pain blooms across my ribs with every breath, a dull throb that mocks me long after the sparring ring has cleared. My knees ache from the fall, my pride aches worse.The other trainees laugh as they file out, their voices sharp as knives.“Beta’s daughter? More like Beta’s disgrace.”“She can’t even stand without wobbling.”“Maybe she should stick to mixing herbs instead of fighting.”Each word cuts deeper than the bruises. I bite my tongue until I taste iron, forcing myself not to flinch, not to let them see how their laughter tears me apart.I will not cry. I’ve shed enough tears in secret.“Again.”The instructor’s voice snaps across the yard. Sergei, his silver eyes cold, throws a wooden staff at my feet. It clatters against the dirt.“I said again, Amanda.”My fingers tremble as I reach for the staff. My legs shake when I stand. Every bone in my body screams for rest, but I squa

  • THE ALPHA'S FATED MUTE   Warrior's Camp

    The first morning in the warrior’s camp was nothing like I could have ever imagined.The sun had barely risen when the sharp blast of a horn jolted me awake. I scrambled from my bunk, my heart pounding, only to be shoved aside by another trainee rushing past. My heart flew t my throat and it tightened, but no sound could escape of course, since my voice, as always, locked away.“Move, mute!” one of the girls hissed, shoving her again as they lined up outside. Laughter followed, low and cruel, and Amanda bit her lip hard enough to taste blood. Even here, she wasn't free from her bullies. She thought to herself, and her wolf growled in defiance at the back of her mind.A towering figure strode forward, his presence alone silencing the whispers. His hair was dark, cropped close, and his eyes—steel gray—cut through the line like blades.“Sergei Volkov,” someone muttered under their breath. “The General of Hell.”Amanda swallowed.“Line up straight,” he barked, his voice like thunder. “You

  • THE ALPHA'S FATED MUTE   LEAVING HOME

    The night was restless. I tossed and turned in my bed, staring up at the faint cracks in the ceiling where the moonlight slipped through. My father’s words echoed in my mind.Warrior’s camp.The phrase alone was heavy enough to press against my chest like a stone. I wasn’t foolish; I knew what was going on there. Grueling training. Brutality masked as discipline. Wolves are fighting to prove their worth, their strength, their right to stand among the pack’s elite.What place did a mute girl have in a place like that?My hands clenched against the thin blanket. I wanted to scream, but the only sound that left my lips was the silence I had known my entire life.By dawn, the house was already awake. I could hear the muffled clatter of pots from the kitchen, the low hum of my mother’s voice. She always hummed when she cooked—something sweet on the surface but sharp when you listened too closely, like she hummed to keep from saying what she truly thought.I stepped inside quietly. She look

  • THE ALPHA'S FATED MUTE   FIRST, INTRODUCTION

    “Deaf, and dumb… I don't know why the beta didn’t just throw someone like you in a cage and leave you to rot.”The words struck my back like knives, but I didn’t flinch. I’d long learned that showing pain only fed the hunger in my packmates’ eyes.I bent my head lower, scrubbing the wooden floor of the training hall until my knuckles stung raw. My silence wasn’t stubbornness; it was all I had. Even if I wanted to shout, to curse, to tell them I wasn’t useless, I couldn’t. My voice had never existed.Mute. Broken. Cursed.That’s what they whispered.That’s what I was.I remembered once asking my mother why I had been born this way. Why the Goddess had chosen silence for me. Her answer still cut deeper than any claw could.“I don’t know, Amanda. Why is anyone born the way they are?” she had said, eyes cold, tone dismissive. For a moment, I had believed she hated me. Perhaps she did.My father, however… he had been my shield. A Beta of the Nightfang Pack, respected and feared. He had ref
