Lila's POV

I had never been one to believe in fate, destiny, or any of those made-up ancient stories that supposedly guide people toward their true paths. Life seemed more like a series of random events, chaotic and out of control. But ever since the night that massive wolf showed up at my clinic, it felt like the universe had decided to involve me in something much bigger than I was ready for.

That wolf, with its intense eyes and unnatural presence, wasn’t just some wild animal. Something about that encounter gnawed at me. And then there was Ethan Blackwood, the man who showed up right when I needed help. Our paths kept crossing, and each time, it was like the universe was nudging us closer together. Whether I wanted it or not.

Today was no different.

I had gone to the local café for my usual cup of tea, needing a break from work. The moment I walked in, my eyes were drawn to him. Ethan sat in the corner, talking quietly with Marcus. I tried to ignore him, not wanting to appear like

  • THE ALPHA'S TRUE MATE    Chapter 24: Conflict within

    Lila’s POVThe early morning sun broke through the dense canopy of trees, casting warm, flickering patches of light over the small kitchen table where Olivia and I sat. The world outside was still quiet, and the silence between us was charged, thick with everything unsaid."You're sure he's… safe?" I asked, struggling to keep my voice steady.Olivia’s fingers tightened around her coffee mug, her gaze drifting as she considered her answer. "Jaxon’s not a threat, Lila. I know what you're thinking, and it's not like that," she said, a bit defensively. Her tone softened when she saw my worried expression. "I wouldn't put us in danger. I… I trust him."The weight in her voice made me pause. Olivia wasn’t one to make reckless choices; she was careful, thoughtful. But love—or whatever it was between her and Jaxon—could make even the best of us irrational. With everything going on. I told her about the supernatural world. It was all too much for her to take in but later she understands. "An

  • THE ALPHA'S TRUE MATE    Chapter 23: The Rogue’s Proposal

    Lila's POVThe moon hung low in the sky, casting long, haunting shadows across the clearing as I made my way toward the place Ethan had chosen for our late-night meeting. The air was cool and heavy with anticipation, and I could feel a pulse of energy in the night, something that set my senses on edge. Beside me, Ethan walked in silence, his eyes sharp and focused, though his jaw was clenched with tension.A rogue werewolf offering help? It didn’t sit right with either of us. According to what ethan told me Rogues rarely wanted anything to do with pack matters—they stayed on the outskirts, managing themselves. This one, though, had come with a proposal, one that had piqued Ethan’s curiosity and, more importantly, his caution.We finally reached the edge of the forest where the trees opened up to reveal an abandoned cabin, isolated and blanketed in shadows. My pulse quickened as we approached, the weight of the night settling heavily on my shoulders. Ethan glanced at me, his face serio

  • THE ALPHA'S TRUE MATE    Chapter 22: The Rogue

    Ethan's POVThe crackling fire in the middle of the lodge was casting shadows across the room, lending an intensity to the tension that filled every corner. A low hum of murmurs and grumbled complaints echoed, each voice blending into the next. I could see the divide forming between the packs already—Silverwood’s pack stood closer to me, wary of the others, while Zara Moon’s warriors kept to themselves, watching our every move with sharp, critical eyes.Gabriel Pierce had sent word he was withdrawing any support after our last confrontation, and I couldn’t pretend it didn’t sting, knowing his decision might influence others to hold back, too. Now, even with Zara’s support, the challenge of uniting these packs was bigger than I’d anticipated. Every alpha here had their own agenda, their own needs and demands, and no one seemed particularly willing to bend.I glanced over to Lila, who was leaning against the wall, her arms folded tightly across her chest. Despite her exhaustion, she was

  • THE ALPHA'S TRUE MATE    Chapter 21: Gathering Allies

    Lila's POVThe quiet after last night’s ambush was almost eerie. Silverwood was on edge, the forest thick with a sense of foreboding, like a storm waiting to break. Ethan had called for a meeting at dawn, gathering the remaining pack members to strategize, and everyone was running on the fumes of little to no sleep. My head pounded, but there was no time to rest; the ritual had shown us exactly how real the threat was. If we didn’t find more support, there was no way we’d be able to hold Dominic off.I stood next to Ethan in the clearing, feeling small amidst the powerful energy humming through the crowd. He was rallying them with that unmistakable intensity that made him a natural leader, his voice calm but firm, pressing on the urgency and the dangers of Dominic’s forces. He made eye contact with me now and again, grounding me with a subtle nod, but I could tell he was as stretched thin as the rest of us.After the meeting wrapped, Ethan and I slipped away to the edge of the pack’s

  • THE ALPHA'S TRUE MATE    Chapter 20: The vision

    Lila's POVThe air in the room felt suffocating after Marcus’s revelation. Fenris. The first werewolf. Even the name carried an ominous weight, like saying it aloud would summon him. Ethan was already barking orders, his alpha presence commanding the room. Meanwhile, I stood rooted to the spot, my mind racing.I wasn’t ready for this.The pack’s training area buzzed with tense energy, everyone sharpening their skills, memorizing plans, and exchanging nervous glances. Most of them avoided looking at me directly, unsure, no doubt, what to make of the human girl suddenly thrust into their supernatural world, although now i knew i was no longer a normal human girl, not with everything happening lately. I did my best to ignore the stares, focusing instead on practicing a new control technique Ethan had shown me to rein in the flickering energy c

  • THE ALPHA'S TRUE MATE    Chapter 19: Ethan’s dark past

    Ethan’s POV The weight of Marcus’s accusations hadn’t lifted since the night of the fight. His words haunted me, echoing in my mind every time I closed my eyes. My father’s legacy was a shadow I’d always carried, but now it felt heavier, darker, and more dangerous than ever. Lila deserved the truth, and I couldn’t avoid it any longer. She was part of this now, whether she wanted to be or not. The bond we shared was undeniable, see that she fated to be me forever, and if I didn’t come clean, it would only fester between us like an open wound. As I stumbled into the night air, the chill hit me like a slap, clearing my head enough to take stock of my surroundings. The night was still, save for the sounds of the struggle in the cabin, and the faint rustling of leaves as other figures approached.Lila’s voice called out softly from the shadows, and I turned, finding her there, her face etched with worry. She must have doubled back after reaching safety with Nathan, unwilling to leave
