ログインThe Blackridge Alpha stood directly before the messenger, his expression cold. “Has this information truly been confirmed, or are you bringing me another rumour? I’ll have your head and the head of your bloodline laid before me if it turns out to be a lie.” The messenger lowered his head, visibly frightened. “My lord, I wouldn’t dare bring false information before you.” “Then speak carefully. Where did this information come from?” “It came from warriors and travellers who witnessed what happened at Garrick’s settlement. The reports have reached several territories, and the details are consistent.” The Alpha narrowed his eyes. “Explain everything.” The messenger swallowed before beginning. “Two visiting Alphas arrived at Garrick’s settlement some time ago. They challenged the settlement’s leader and attempted to provoke a conflict. Alpha Deucalion was present and intervened before things became worse.” The Luna exchanged a glance with her husband. “Deucalion was there?” she a
Inside the Blackridge mansion, the Alpha sat beside the fireplace while the Luna stood near the tall windows. Neither seemed interested in the quiet evening around them. Their conversation had returned, once again, to the future of their family. “How much longer are we expected to wait?” the Luna asked. The Alpha looked up from the cup in his hand. “We have spoken about this many times.” “And nothing has changed.” He set the cup down. “Deucalion knows what is expected of him.” “Does he?” She turned from the window. “He has had years to give this family an heir. Yet we are still in the same position.” The Alpha’s expression tightened. “Celine was supposed to secure that future.” “She failed,” the Luna replied sharply. “And Deucalion has done nothing to correct it.” “He cannot be forced to choose a Luna simply because we are impatient.” The Luna gave him a hard look. “We are not asking him to choose carelessly. We are asking him to understand what is at stake. The Blackridge b
“My lord?”Deucalion finally blinked and turned towards the warrior sitting opposite him.The man straightened slightly.“I have called you several times, my lord. Is something troubling you?”Deucalion looked at him for a moment before turning his attention towards the carriage window.“Why do you ask?”“You have been unusually quiet since we left the settlement. Even when I spoke to you about our journey, you didn’t seem to hear me.”“I’m fine.”The warrior hesitated. “Forgive me for asking, but you don’t seem fine.”Deucalion gave no response.The warrior understood that his Alpha wasn’t ready to speak, so he settled back into his seat.However, Deucalion’s mind remained occupied.He had a son.A son he had never known existed for more than six years.The thought still felt strange whenever he considered it. Somewhere beyond the walls of Blackridge, he had a child who had grown up without knowing his father. A boy who had learned to protect his mother without anyone teaching him th
“What?”Lucius seemed to realize how shocking his question sounded. He straightened in his chair, looking at me as though he was searching for the right words.“Malia, I didn’t mean it the way you understood it.”“Then what did you mean?”He rubbed his palms together before answering.“I only want you to be safe. You’ve been worrying so much since Deucalion appeared. I can see how much this whole situation is affecting you, and I don’t want you to keep living like this.”I stared at him.“So your solution is for me to give Derek to Blackridge?”“No. That’s not what I’m saying.”“Then what are you saying, Lucius?”He opened his mouth, but I didn’t give him the chance to answer.“So I should leave my son behind for my peace of mind?”“Malia, please. Listen to me first.”“Listen to what? That I should hand over the child I’ve protected all these years because his father suddenly wants him?”Lucius lowered his eyes.I couldn’t believe he had said something like that. Of all the things I e
The news still travelled farther than anyone expected.By the time it reached Lucius’s family, the story had already changed in several ways. However, one detail remained the same wherever it was told.The mysterious boy who had defeated several Red Fang warriors was believed to carry the Blackridge bloodline.Inside a large mansion belonging to Lucius’s family, his father, the alpha sat behind a wooden table, listening to a messenger who had travelled from a neighbouring territory.“Repeat what you just said,” he ordered.The messenger bowed.“The boy who defeated the Red Fang warriors is believed to have Blackridge blood. Some wolves are saying he may be Deucalion’s son.”Lucius’s father’s expression changed slightly. “Deucalion’s son?”“Yes, my lord.”He leaned back in his chair, rubbing his chin thoughtfully.For years, the Blackridge family had been desperate for a strong heir. Deucalion and Damien were their only sons, and the continuation of their powerful bloodline had become
The news did not remain within Garrick's settlement for long.It began with a few travellers who had heard about the mysterious boy who defeated several Red Fang warriors. At first, the story sounded unbelievable. A child defeating grown warriors was already difficult to accept, but the details surrounding his strength had made many wolves curious.Now, another piece of information has been added to the story.The boy carried Blackridge blood.That single detail changed everything.In one territory, a group of warriors gathered around a fire, discussing the news they had received from a passing traveller.“Did you hear what they are saying about that boy?” one of them asked.“The child who defeated Red Fang?”“Yes. They say he carries the Blackridge bloodline.”Another warrior frowned. “Are you sure? That is a serious claim.”“That's what the travellers are saying. Apparently, Deucalion himself encountered the boy and the boy did not back down?”“Deucalion?”The warrior nodded. “Then
