LOGINZackary's POV
I couldn't help but smirk at Sade's face; it flushed in various shades of red before settling into a sickening white.
I reveled in her discomfort deep within my soul. I was thrilled at the idea of scheduling her so-called training, as she had no idea what was in store for her.
As I leaned back in my chair, I envisioned the expression on her face when she finally grasped what she was up against. The anticipation of her reaction fueled my excitement, and I cou
Lilly's POV"Evening, Mother; evening, Father," Adira sang as she approached. Her voice was a sweet melody that traveled a short distance, drawing smiles from her parents."Welcome back, dear daughter," her father said, his gaze flickering toward me."Who's your friend?" her mother asked, curiosity evident in her eyes.Four pairs of eyes stared at me, frozen in place, and something that resembled fear flickered in their expressions."Oh, that's Asena," Adira chirped excitedly, gesturing for us to get closer. "Come on, don't be shy. Come and meet my family. They wouldn't bite..."Asena moved closer but abruptly halted when a sneer appeared on one of Adira's brother's lips."But she might..." he mumbled just loud enough for me to hear.Everyone stiffened at his words, and a chill ran down my spine.I hesitated, glancing at Adira for reassurance. Her smile faltered, and I sensed the tension in the air as her brother's gaze
Lex's POV"Why does it feel like everything is spiraling out of my control?" I muttered as I stared at the moon from my bedroom balcony. "Why are you allowing such events to happen? Is this some kind of punishment, some kind of test?"I sighed, my heart heavy.The cool night air brushed against my skin, but it did little to alleviate the turmoil inside me.I closed my eyes, hoping for clarity, but all I found was a growing sense of uncertainty that wrapped around me like a thick fog."Why are you allowing this impostor in my life?" I asked.Since we left Asena in the clearing, I have carried this dreaded feeling with me. As if the very shadows were listening, a shiver ran down my spine. Each unanswered question deepened the chasm of doubt, leaving me to wonder if I would ever find peace amidst the chaos.The situation was slowly eating me alive... and I was on the verge of erupting like a volcano.I felt miserable, irritated, a
Lilly's POVAnxiety coursed through my veins as we followed Adira. I wasn't sure where we were going or if we were still within the Royal Pack territory. All I knew was that we were venturing deeper into the dark forest.The sudden sound of rushing water caught my attention, and I turned my gaze toward the source of the noise.It sounded like a waterfall, and I could already imagine the magnificent downpour.Adira seemed focused elsewhere, moving gracefully down the narrow, overgrown path. She brushed her fingertips through the grass, humming an unfamiliar tune that almost resembled a lullaby.I found it odd that she appeared so comfortable around a werewolf.I knew she was a witch; I had sensed her magic—raw and powerful—before I even laid eyes on her.But I was uncertain about her intentions toward me and why she remained so calm in the presence of wolves.Still, I could sense that Asena trusted her with my life.Sudde

I was thrilled at the idea of scheduling her so-called training, as she had no idea what was in store for her.As I leaned back in my chair, I envisioned the expression on her face when she finally grasped what she was up against. The anticipation of her reaction fueled my excitement, and I couldn't wait to see her squirm under the pressure I intended to unleash.Goddess, I was eager to start drafting her daily tasks..."Beta Zack will provide me with feedback on your progress," Lex said seriously, locking eyes with me.The thought of her facing the upcoming challenges filled me with exhilaration. Each task would be crafted not just to test her limits but to reveal her true potential, and I was eager to witness whether she would rise to the occasion—or not.
Lex's POVI have never seen the pack members this upset. Most of them didn’t even glance at Sade when she entered; others shot her enraged glares. Her presence undoubtedly ignited a flurry of emotions, and I could sense the tension thickening in the atmosphere.I knew I had to intervene before things escalated further, but how could I calm them down when their anger was so palpable?I took a seat on the small stage at the back of the dining room, the usual venue for our internal announcements and meetings.As I cleared my throat, the room fell silent, all eyes now on me. I hoped my voice would carry enough authority to soothe their frayed nerves and restore some semblance of order to the chaos unfolding before us.An older wolf named Johnathan stepped closer and handed me a paper listing their complaints.I took a deep breath and scanned the list, feeling the weight of their grievances settle on my shoulders. This was my chance to address th
Lex's POVLotus stood, staring at the spot where Asena had just vanished. I could sense his urge to ignore her plea and follow her.I felt the same way.But I knew he wouldn’t; he would stick to his promise to her.“She’ll be okay, buddy,” I said, attempting to soothe his aching heart. “She’s in good hands. She’ll be back.”Even my words did little to ease the pain in my heart.The thought of her leaving me again drove me insane.I had so many questions that needed answers. There were so many things I wanted to ask.Yet, the main questions gnawed at me.Why did Asena refuse to reveal my mate's name? Why did she want to keep her identity hidden? Was her past that terrible?“I guess so,” Lotus replied, his heart heavy. “We just found her, and now she’s gone again. Will we ever be able to settle down and be together?”It was a question I couldn’t answer, but I sensed that Asena had a point about Sade’s sudden
Lilly's POV"Urgh," I moaned as I slowly dragged my eyelids open.My head throbbed uncontrollably, and my hand instinctively shot to the side of my head. I winced at the sharp pain radiating through my skull. The light filtering through the curtains made me squint. Everything around
Lex POV"It's done!" Lotus chirped excitedly as he released the girl, who collapsed to the ground. Suddenly, the atmosphere shifted, and something cold brushed against me from above."What's happening?" I asked, looking up at the sky. White, cold, wet flakes drifted down from the sk
Lex's POV"Lotus, what the hell are you doing?" I yelled as he crashed into the wall. Paintings tumbled to the floor, the sound of shattering glass ringing in my ears, and the unmistakable scent of blood filled my nostrils."Stop! Stop this madness!" I ordered. "There's no way we ca
Lilly's POVCurious gray eyes locked onto mine, and for a moment, I felt captivated by their stormy depths. They shimmered like liquid mercury beneath the dim yellow light of the foyer.My gaze swept over his features—he appeared even more handsome in person than he had in my dreams.The massive wo
