Every step I took, I could feel them. Every step I took, I could feel them.Draven on my left, steady and quiet, his presence like something solid I could lean on without even trying.Darius on my right, sharper, heavier, like a storm pressing too close to my skin.It wasn’t just awareness.It was… connection.It pulsed faintly in my chest, tightening every time one of them moved closer, easing just slightly when they didn’t. I hated it. I didn’t understand it.And worst of all…I didn’t want it to stop.No one spoke.The silence stretched between us, thick and charged, like something was building and none of us wanted to be the first to break it.We reached the door.My door.The same one I had stood in front of weeks ago, shaking, terrified, trying to figure out how to survive inside a place that had take
LUNA I knew something was wrong the moment she walked back in. It wasn’t just the way the room quieted.It wasn’t even the elders going still like they had just realized they were no longer the ones in control.It was them.The way they stood around her like she was the center of the universe, like she was above everyone else, like she was a fragile glass that they needed to encircle to protect. My gaze moved slowly from Draven to Darius.Draven was close to her. Too close. His attention never left her, like the rest of the room had stopped existing the moment she stepped in.That wasn’t new.Draven had always been predictable when it came to her.But Darius…My eyes narrowed slightly. Darius wasn’t looking at me, not once. He didn't look at me when she walked in or when the elders spoke, or even when he saw me standing beside Malrik! I had wanted him to look at me. I wanted to get his attention because I thought I knew him but that damned human girl was ruining everything! A fa
AURORANo one moved immediately after the knock. Except of course, Darius who was swearing under his breath. Even Draven seemed upset with the interruption. The silence came back, but it wasn’t the same.It felt stretched and tense, like something had been interrupted before it could finish.My lips still tingled.My chest still felt tight, like whatever had snapped open between us hadn’t settled. It was still there… lingering, pulling, waiting.I swallowed slowly, trying to steady my breathing.It didn’t work.Because they were still close.Too close.I could still feel both of them.I managed to hide the small smile that threatened to creep up my lips. I was enjoying the attention from the two of them even though I felt frustrated by the interruption too. Draven stepped back first. Not far, just enough to give me space, but his eyes stayed on me like he didn’t trust the distance.“You should go,” he said quietly.I nodded.But I didn’t move.Because part of me didn’t want to.Dari
AURORAI’ve always been comfortable in silence. Growing up after my mom died the house was quiet a lot mostly because my dad threw himself into his work to provide a better life for me. But all that seemed like a different life after the werewolves took control of our world. It was never quiet again but today I just enjoyed the peaceful silence. Even though it felt like something was pressing down on all of us at once, tightening with every second none of us moved. I could hear everything.Draven’s breathing in front of me, slow and controlled, like he was holding himself back.Darius is behind me, quieter but sharper, like a storm waiting to break.Mine was uneven, fast, and loud. I swallowed, trying to steady myself, but it didn’t work because the closer they were the worse it got.“Why does it feel like this?” I whispered.Draven didn’t answer immediately. His eyes stayed on mine, searching, like he was trying to figure me out without breaking me.But Darius moved closer. The
AURORAThe walk back felt longer than it should have.Every step echoed too loudly in my head, even though the path was familiar. I had walked this same route before with my head lowered, trying not to meet anyone’s eyes, trying not to give anyone a reason to notice me.Now I couldn’t avoid it.They were all staring at me. Not the way they used to. Not with cruelty or indifference.This was different.Their gazes followed me like I had become something they didn’t understand. Some of them stepped aside as we passed. A few lowered their heads slightly. Others just stood there, watching, like they were waiting for something.For me to prove what I was. Or what I wasn’t.My chest tightened as I kept my eyes forward, pretending like I didn’t notice any of it.Draven walked on my left, quiet and steady, his presence calm like always. Darius stayed on my right, silent but alert, his gaze moving over the surroundings like he was expecting something to go wrong at any moment.But it wasn’t th
AURORA“What?!”The word left my lips before I could stop it.The entire hall erupted.Voices rose all at once, overlapping, clashing, filling the space with confusion and disbelief.“That’s impossible!”“She’s human!”“The Moon Goddess would never—”“Two Alphas?!”The noise pressed against my ears, but I barely heard any of it. My heart was pounding too fast, my chest rising and falling as I stared at the elders.Mated.To both of them?My fingers curled slightly at my sides as I shook my head.“That doesn’t make any sense,” I said, my voice quieter now but firm. “That’s not—”“You felt it,” the elder cut in calmly.My words died in my throat.Because I had.The thread.The pull.The connection that didn’t feel imagined.Real.Too real.Before I could say anything else, a slow clap echoed through the hall.Every head turned.Malrik.Of course.He stepped forward, his expression unreadable but his eyes sharp as they moved between me, Draven, and Darius.“Well,” he said smoothly, “this
AURORAThe moment I knelt it felt like a part of me had died. A part of me that I had shielded and protected in that dungeon for days. But I knew I couldn't watch Mimi get hurt for something she had no hand in. Despite how badly I hated my father for what he did I still didn't want to see him get
AURORAI waited, holding my breath wondering if I would hear the howling sound I had heard before in my mind but no matter how long I held my breath the sound didn't return. I let out a breath and finally decided to look around the room. Malrik’s footsteps had faded down the corridor, the howling
AURORANo matter how I tried to stay awake I dozed off. I drifted into a dreamless sleep as the warmth I felt wrapped around me like a cozy blanket. But I had barely closed my house when I heard the thunderous sounds of boots before my cell door was harshly opened. Six guards stepped in, sneers on
DRAVENI didn’t mean to shift, it just happened.One moment I was in the training room taking out my anger and frustration at the punching bag because Malrik hadn't allowed me or Darius to see Rory since the courtyard.Then the next thing I knew I was in the woods behind the packhouse, tearing thro
