The dormitory was quieter than Serena expected.

After days in the forest, the twigs, the mud, the blood and the constant hum of danger — the stillness and quiet felt foreign, almost even suspicious.

She shut the door behind her and leaned against it for a moment, exhaling slowly.

The Gauntlet’s first stage was over.

She had survived, barely.

She moved toward the wash basin, splashed cool water over her face, and watched the reflection staring back at her.

Soren.

She kept the illusion in place

  • The Alpha Queen Who Refused To Kneel    She Shouldn’t Be Here

    Today was another day in this torture of a pack for Serena…The elders swore to make her life a living hell, and to be fair, that was exactly what they were doing.Now she was walking through the long hallways.Servants moved around her carefully, their heads bowed, their voices hushed. Some stole glances and others really didn’t even try to hide it.That’s her.The Alpha’s daughter.The one who got expelled.The one who’s about to be Luna.Luna.The word made her stomach turn.That was the title she had been trying her whole life to outrun, and yet, it had found a way back to her.Maybe, the elder has always been right. Women…just weren’t meant for the Alpha title.One of the maids stopped in front of a large set of carved doors and pushed them open.“Your quarters, my lady.”Serena didn’t respond or acknowledge her.She stepped inside.The doors closed behind her softly.And just like that…It felt real.This wasn’t a discussion anymore.It wasn’t a threat.It was really happening.

  • The Alpha Queen Who Refused To Kneel    A Crown Without Choice

    The moment they announced, a heavy and deafening silence followed.For a full minute, Serena did not move or think…The elders' words were still ringing in her ears. Take the former Alpha’s daughter as your Luna.Her…Who else was there to offer?A flicker of laughter broke through the stillness.Then another.And just like that, the room came back to life.Whispers spread like wildfire.“She should be honored…”“It secures her position…”“She’s lucky he’s even willing—”Lucky.That word hit harder than anything else.Lucky. That was what she was now. Just a lucky person that she was born by an Alpha…Maybe they were right…“Maybe she forced the elders to do this…”“Maybe it was her plan all along to remain in charge ..."“She’s so selfish…”The whispers continued, each one hitting hard.Her breathing began to quicken, the panic stirring up.“I… I just…” “I can’t…”Serena muttered under breath, then she turned and walked out.Later now, Serena had finally gotten a grip of herself. No

  • The Alpha Queen Who Refused To Kneel    Bound by Blood, Not Love

    Damien was going to be their Alpha…No, no, not that. He was going to be her Alpha!!But for a second, just one second…Serena let herself forget how everything ended between them.The grief and the humiliation. The most shameful day of her life.All of it faded…Because Damien was standing in front of her.Her heart betrayed her first.It began pounding loudly in her chest.Too many memories rushed in at once.The forest at and the gauntlet, where he found out about her secret…That was the day she truly felt something for him. Maybe not enough, but she truly saw him as a good person and not an egotistic Alpha like the others.Her breath caught.Maybe…Maybe he didn’t come for the pack.Maybe he didn’t come to take anything from her.Maybe everything that happened at the academy—everything that broke between them—wasn’t the end.Maybe—The thought barely had time to take shape—Before it was destroyed.The carriage door opened again.A woman stepped out.And just like that…Everything

  • The Alpha Queen Who Refused To Kneel    A Funeral Stolen by a New Alpha

    Today was the day…The day Serena had prayed against, she spent so much effort trying to avoid it since she returned.And despite it all, the day still came. The day that she buries her father and rest his soul.The air in the pack was still and heavy.It was as if the world itself had paused to acknowledge what Mooncrest had lost.Their Alpha…Serena stood at the center of the yard, with other pack members gathered behind her..She was at the front, where she didn’t want to be.Where she had no choice but to stand.Her fingers curled tightly at her sides, nails biting into her palms as she stared ahead at the raised stone platform.Her father lay there.He is gone now.A low murmur rippled through the gathered pack members behind her, but Serena barely heard it. Their presence blurred into nothing. Their faces meant nothing.All she could see… was him.A priest stepped forward and then he began reciting the ancient rites of passage.Words Serena had heard before.“…the Alpha returns

  • The Alpha Queen Who Refused To Kneel    When the Last Light Fades

    “It’s your father…”“He’s dying…”Dying? No,no,no:..For a moment those words didn’t register in her mind.Serena just stood there, staring at the maid like she hadn’t heard her properly.Then it truly hit her at full force Her chest tightened immediately.Then she moved.Her legs carried her quickly across the yard.Her boots slammed against stone and dirt alike as she cut through corridors, brushing past servants who barely had time to step out of her way.Her thoughts came in fragments.No…Not yet.He still has time…he couldn’t just die and leave her like that.She pushed harder as her breathing became heavier.By the time she reached the doors to his chamber, they were already open.Too many people were inside.Their voices, movements all laced with panic and urgency.Serena slowed for half a second at the threshold.As she took it in…And everything inside her dropped.The room was chaotic.Healers crowded around the bed, their hands and bodies moving quickly.“Hold him—”“More

  • The Alpha Queen Who Refused To Kneel    Not Just an Alpha’s Daughter

    Serena stood at the edge of the training field, her arms folded across her chest as she watched the men move and train.For her, watching training, fights, meetings… it felt like what she was supposed to do…To be an Alpha….She watched as the men sparred each other, taking breaks, some even laughing and joking around.It was like nothing was wrong.Like their Alpha wasn’t lying on the edge of death.She took a slow deep breath, forcing herself to be calm.Then she watched as one of the men lunged fully…sloppy move.And then another failed to guard his flank, as he took in a sharp hit there.A third got knocked flat on his back, and instead of correcting his stance, he laughed as someone helped him up.Serena exhaled sharply.Pathetic.She could only think to herself… how were these lots of sorry people more fitted to be an Alpha than her.Just because they have a d**k and broad shoulders…She clenched her fists tightly.They were supposed to be warriors.Protectors.And yet—They tra
