Serena did not move from the doorway as her eyes landed on the scene in her dorm.

Damien’s hand was tangled in the girl’s hair, with her back pressed against the stone wall beside his bed.

His mouth was on hers and all over it.

Serene didn't really put much into the sex happening in front of her, but on the fact that there was a girl…

Inside an all-boys academy.

For half a second, Serena thought she had stepped into the wrong room.

Then Damien opened his eyes and he saw her.

And instead of sh

  • Rejected By My Mate, I Returned As Alpha Queen    No Longer the Prisoner

    Darkness has swallowed the forest now…It was night time now, and for Serena it meant one thing…revenge.The fortress of the Veil Order stood among trees… its structure imposing as ever.Serena stood among the trees and watched it closely… not even blinking…Once, they had dragged her through those gates in chains, barely even conscious after they beat the hell out of her…Now she returned on her own feet and with a purpose…for blood.It’s time.She closed her eyes and let memory guide her.They changed guards every quarter bell on the east wall.The western tower had a blind turn where guards didn’t always want to check…There was a servant entrance behind the lower kitchens, hidden behind some rocks…, used for waste carts and deliveries.They had taught her these things carelessly, never believing a prisoner would matter enough to remember.That was their first mistake.Serena opened her eyes.Tonight they would learn what it cost.And then, she moved into the darkness…**********T

  • Rejected By My Mate, I Returned As Alpha Queen    The Return of the Alpha

    The morning after the war..arrived, eventually…Damien walked through what remained of Mooncrest Pack in silence, his boots crunching over the ground.The air still carried that faint smell of smoke from the burnts… and blood..His eyes carried through his pack… taking in everything.The destruction, the chao… every building, carriages, all burnt down… gone.People moved slowly around him.Some gathered what belongings the fire had spared, while stacked bodies beneath cloth.Some simply sat where they were, staring at nothing.No one cheered when their Alpha passed and no one even bothered to even call his name.They bowed because duty demanded it. That was worse.Damien stopped near the western lane where three warriors were building makeshift stretchers. One of them had fought beside him since youth. The man glanced up, met Damien’s eyes, then looked away.A small knot tightened in Damien’s chest.A child no older than seven stood nearby clutching a charred wooden toy.“Alpha,” the

    “No…”The word tore from Damien’s mouth as he dropped to his knees.Grey… no…His heart felt like something cracked in it… his best mate, his Beta…his friend!Damein stood up again, a harsh aura now oozing off of him…Then grief he had before soon became rage.“I’ll kill all of you!” The energy came… the strength he thought he lost fighting Prince was back and ten fold more!In a flash…he moved.The two Death Valley warriors standing over Grey barely had time to turn before Damien was on them.The first one raised an arm, but that was very slow.Damien’s claws ripped through the warrior’s throat in one savage sweep, tearing flesh and spraying blood across the floor. The man dropped without a sound.The second stumbled back, his eyes wide with fear, then he tried to retreat…Damien caught him by the jaw.“You touched him.”Then smashed his skull into the courtyard wall hard enough to crack stone.The warrior dropped down lifeless.For a heartbeat, everything around them seemed to stil

  • Rejected By My Mate, I Returned As Alpha Queen    The Day Mercy Cost Everything.

    Prince’s claws descended toward Damien’s throat slowly.. inevitably.Damein couldn’t move now… his body has betrayed him… he was just spoiling for the taking now to Prince.So this was it.Prince’s grin widened as the killing strike fell.Then something hit him from the side like a storm.Prince was ripped away and hurled across the clearing, crashing through brush and rolling hard through mud.Damien sucked in a deep breath and pushed himself up onto one elbow.Then he saw her…A figure stood between him and death.Serena…Her eyes never left Prince as he rose slowly from the ground.“He is mine to kill,” she said. “No one else’s”Prince wiped blood from his mouth and laughed, his tone low.When his eyes locked on her, his brows lifted. “ Wait…”“I remember you.”Serena did not answer him but still, Prince was sure of her face…Then it hit him… Veil Order…She was the girl they showed, the Serena they talked about…‘ Kill Damien. If Serena interferes— Kill her too.’He rolled his sho

    Once the screams and the shouts tore out into the nightThe tension suddenly spiked up…Serena’s heart did so as well as she crossed to the tall window in two strides and looked down into the courtyard below.It was total and absolute chaos!She saw armies… a large number of warriors pouring into the gates, trying to break it down…She recognized the symbols on their chest immediately…Death Valley Pack!Serena watched as defenders of the MoonCrest Pack rushed from barracks still partly dressed and some even half asleep.., only to be met by charging attackers who had come prepared for slaughter.Bodies began dropping and falling like flies…The sound of Sandy’s whimper from behind her, maybe Serena turned…Sandy was still on the floor, one hand pressed to the thin cut on her throat, tears streaking her face. She looked pathetic. What fear could cause…For a long moment Serena simply stared at her.The woman had poisoned her, lied against her…tried to make her life a living hell.Sere

    It was barely dawn when Damein was up. He was already dressed in plain black, something light and easy for what he was about to go do.Just then.. the doors of his chamber open.“You planned to leave without telling me. Even after I told you not to go…”Grey stepped in, his tone sharp.Damien did not look up immediately when he entered…, he just sighed under his breath.“I planned to leave before you could try to stop me again..”Grey exhaled, stepping closer...“This is madness Alpha! You know this!”Damien finally turned.“Maybe it is. But it is necessary.”Grey stepped farther inside, shutting the door behind him.“You found an old book about something and now you ride into an unknown forest chasing ghosts.”“They are not ghosts.”“It could be a trap.. a lure.”“Either way… they are enemies and I have to deal with them...”Grey’s frustration grew more, seeing how Damein was being right now…Once he had his mind set on something, there was hardly swaying him.Especially when that s

    Their eyes locked in Ike that for a moment x the tension rising up…And then, he pulled off and walked in the other direction to the door.“I need air.” he muttered before slamming the door shut. The silence stretched long in the room after Damien stepped away.Serena remained exactly where he had

    Serene’s POVThe silence in the room felt heavier than armor.Serene sat on the edge of her bed, her fingers curled around the broken pieces of the necklace.Across the room, Damien stood by the window, staring outside.Neither of them had spoken in several minutes.Outside, the academy was awake a

    Warm sunlight filtered through the canopy, as Serena slept peacefully through it.She laid fast asleep inside the tent with one arm flung over her face to block the light. For a moment, there was peace.Then—A splash of icy water hit her square in the face.She bolted upright with a gasp.She gav
