“What are you doing here alone, again?” he asked, his voice calm.

“I’m… I’m only resting and taking in some fresh air, Alpha,” she responded.

“You should go to bed. Tomorrow, you train to join the Shadow Warriors,” Kael said, his voice deep yet calm.

“Yes, Alpha,” Aria responded.

She stood still, her head bowed, waiting for the Alpha to walk out before she did, but he didn’t.

“Go on,” he said, after he realized she was waiting for him to leave. “I want to watch you leave,” he added.

Aria nodded as she walked away swiftly. She was confused.

“Why would the Alpha watch me walk out on him?” she thought.

Kael watched her leave, then he headed for his chamber.

Aria lay in bed, reflecting on all that had happened in just one day. She still had her eyes on the mission, but something deep inside her felt uncertain about Kael.

“What’s this about? I’m sure I saw him on the day my pack fell… so why this uncertainty?” Aria thought.

Back in the Alpha’s quarters, Kael lay down, rubbing hi

    Aria and Beta Darian had trained the whole day; the air in the training hall was heavy with fatigue. Aria sat in the ring, her heart pounding and her sweat dripping to the floor. “That’ll be all for today. You should get enough rest in preparation for tomorrow’s drill and initiation,” he said as he buckled up his shoes and headed for the door. “Thank you, Beta,” Aria replied. Weakness in every word. “You’re welcome.”“Beta,” Aria called as she stepped out of the ring to meet him halfway into the hall. “Yes.”“Can I bring my mentor for my initiation? I promise I’ll be back by morning. I just have to inform him, please, Beta,” Aria said, putting her hands together in an attempt to beg Beta Darian. “If I let you go now, you have to be back before morning bells tomorrow. Can you do that?” “Yes, sir. Thank you, sir,” Aria said happily. “Hold on.” Aria paused. “Just one, we don’t normally allow rogues in our territory, but since he’s your mentor, the Alpha can put up with that.”“Y

  • The Alpha’s Bane     The Day Before.

    Down in the middle of the hall was Aria, still trying to wrap her head around what had just happened with the Alpha. Her hand found it’s way to her neck—the exact spot where Kael had earlier buried his face. “What’s going on? Why would he do that to me? Why did I let him touch me? I could have protested…, but I sat still like a figurine.”Aria wrestled with her mind. She was here to kill this Alpha so why did she let him get so close. “Does he feel something for me? What on earth is this tingling in my tummy?” Just then, Kael stormed out of the watch tower. Beta Darian followed behind. Aria’s stomach tightened as she lowered her gaze. Kael walked passed Aria, unbothered—like nothing had happened. His dark eyes fixed on the door, his black cape sweeping the dusty floor as he went, his aura—commanding. He walked out of the training hall in a split second. Aria watched him leave, almost lost in her thoughts until the slam of the door jolted her back. “Lyra,” Beta Darian called ou

  • The Alpha’s Bane     When Eyes Lock.

    His dark stormy eyes met hers. In Kael’s mind, there was only silence, until a surge of electricity ran through him, just like at midnight. He clenched his fists and tried to get a grip on himself. Just then, Aria’s voice pierced through the silence. “Alpha,” she called out again. “Ly…Lyra, the mew moon is tomorrow night. You need to train for your initiation,” he said, running his hand through his hair as he struggled to put his words together. “What is she doing to me?” “Yes, my lord,” she responded. “Why was he staring at me like I’m a ghost?” she muttered. “What are you saying?” “Nothing, Alpha,” Aria replied, lowering her gaze quickly. “Beta Darian would be here any minute. He had to give a speech to start the purification rites,” he said as he walked further towards her. Aria stood still, confused. “Why does he have to come here? I can just wait around for Beta or he could have sent for me when he’s here not now,” she thought. “Come,” he said, grabbing her wrist befo

  • The Alpha’s Bane    Heat In-between

    “You can’t get me,” little Aria laughed as she ran through the woods. “Don’t slow down, I’m right behind you,” Cassian said running behind Aria. Cassian was the fastest wolf in the pack, but he let his little sister believe she could meet him at a race. They’d normally run through the woods and play around. That’s what silvermane was about — peace and quite. Then, a herd of birds flew all at once. Little Aria yelled. Cassian stopped. Then, a loud blast — the war horn. Tears streamed down Aria’s cheeks as her brother grabbed her, placed her on his back and ran back into the village. “Cassian, I’m scared,” Aria whimpered, burying her face in her brother’s fur.“Its going to be alright,” he assured, his breath shaky as he ran at his top speed. Last thing he ever wanted was to watch his little sister get hurt or be in any form of pain. By the time they reached the village, warriors were already assembling. Her father stood at the front, belts fastened, sword and armor in place.

  • The Alpha’s Bane     Blades and Burdens.

    The morning bell rang at its usual time—enough of the celebration. Wolves were back to their routines. Aria jolted awake at the sound of the bell. She hadn’t slept well since her conversation with the Alpha. The dining room swarmed with wolves. Aria ate her meal rapidly, barely tasting the food, and in no time the next bell rang — a call to training. Aria made her way to the training hall and sat on a bench in the right corner. She sat still and watched other wolves train as commanders barked orders. Then a voice called out — it was General Thorne. “Lyra Vane!” he called out, his voice loud and sharp. He walked towards her. Aria stood up, and walked towards him without hesitation. “You no longer train in this hall. Come with me.”General Thorne led Aria out of the hall. The thumping of their boots echoed against the stony floor as they moved down the corridor. “Congratulations on your promotion, Lyra. You’ll now undergo several training phases for the shadow warriors before your

    A few minutes later, she left for her room. A smile played on her face. She had never been this happy since she entered this pack. But today, she was a step closer to her goal —the Alpha’s inner circle. “Congratulations, Lyra,” a young wolf said as Aria walked into the room. “Thank you.” “You’re glowing differently today,” a She-Wolf complimented as Aria walked past her. Aria kept smiling as she made her way to her bed. She had barely settled in when the medics walked in. “Lyra Vane?” the medic called. “Yes, that’s me,” she responded. “Please let me tend to your wounds,” she said, moving towards her. “Yes, please,” she replied. Aria groaned as the medic cleaned the wounds, but a soft smile sat on her face — memories from Silvermane, of all she’d lost, and of all she would reclaim. ——————————————————Aria stretched out as she sat up the next morning. No morning bells, it was an unusual morning. Wolves lingered around, some chatting while others were still asleep. Aria ti
