The Alpha’s Bane Summoned.
The night smelled different here. Thicker. Ancient. Kael shifted back to his human form as the towering gates of the Council fortress stood ahead, his six guards doing the same behind him. They were silent, their breathing steady, their eyes fixed on the stone walls that stretched toward the sky.“Alpha Kael of Nightfang,” the sentries at the gate announced, their voices echoing through the walls. The doors opened with a light groan and the first thing Kael saw was firelight, the torches lined the path ahead, and drummers stood on either side, beating a slow, heavy rhythm.Then came the dancers.They stepped into the path barefoot, their bodies painted with the colors of the Council. Every movement was deliberate, calculated. The arms swaying, feet striking the ground in time with the drums, it was a dance of welcome, one Kael had seen a hundred times before, but never enjoyed. Nightfang was a pack of warriors. They didn’t dance. They conquered.Kael walked forward anyway, his blac
The Alpha’s Bane Whispers In The Yard.
Aria, Mira and Lira walked into the Shadows training hall. Wolves lingered around in the hall as they walked in quietly. The hall felt different today. Less sharp. Less watchful.“Warm-up laps,” General Thorne barked.The Shadows started jogging. Mira groaned under her breath. “Tell me why I have to do this every morning.” “To keep your legs from turning to sticks,” Lira shot back, smirking as she ran past her.Aria stayed quiet as she jogged behind them. But her mind wasn’t on the laps. It kept circling back to what Lira had seen; Kael, gone before dawn with guards, no explanation.By the third lap, Selene appeared, her boots hitting the ground. She didn’t even look tired.“Enjoying private dinners with the Alpha now?” Selene said as she passed Aria, voice low enough to sound casual but it carried a sting. Aria didn’t flinch. “You seem more bothered about it than I am,” she shot back.Selene smirked, slowing her pace just to jog beside her. “Oh, I’m not bothered. Just curious what
The Alpha’s Bane The Council’s Call.
The Beta Chamber was quiet. Selene sat cross-legged on a low stool behind Laura, her fingers pulling through Laura’s long brown hair, weaving it into a tight braid. Laura had one leg hanging up on the edge of her chair, lazily sharpening her dagger against a stone. Lucan lay across the couch by the wall, one arm resting on the side rest, tossing a coin and catching it as it fell.“Stop pulling,” Laura muttered, wincing slightly.“I wouldn’t have to if you’d stop moving your head every two seconds,” Selene replied dryly.“Maybe if you weren’t trying to braid it like you’re prepping me for war.” “It’s practice,” Selene cut in smoothly, pulling the braid tighter. “One day I might be doing this in the middle of a battlefield. You should be grateful I’m fast.”Lucan snorted. “Remind me never to let Selene braid my hair. I’d come out bald.” Selene smirked. “You don’t have enough hair worth braiding.”Before Lucan could talk back, the door creaked open.Beta Darian stepped in, calm as eve

The smell of sweat and dust lingered in the Shadows training hall. Aria rolled her shoulders, ignoring the burn in her muscles as she faced Selene in the combat ring. Mira stood off to the side, her arms crossed, watching closely. Lira leaned against the post beside her, also watching. Selene smirked. “What’s the point of being the Golden Wolf if you can’t stay on your feet?”Aria tightened her fists. “You talk too much.”“Oh? Then hit me,” Selene said, frowning. “If you can.”The other Shadows lingered around lazily. Sparring wasn’t unusual, but when Selene stepped in, it was always a show—one they’ll like to watch. Lucan’s voice called out from the edge of the circle. “Breathe, Lyra. She’s fast, but predictable. Use it.”Aria gave him a quick glance, then focused on Selene.“Eyes here, pup,” Selene said, and then she bent, moving slowly, aiming for Aria’s ribs.Aria blocked, barely. Selene’s fist hit her arm, but she didn’t drop.“Better,” Lucan called out.Selene came at her aga
The Alpha’s Bane Quiet Tension.
Aria pushed the door open quietly, hoping they’d be asleep.No such luck.“There she is!” Mira’s voice cut across the room before Aria even stepped in fully.Aria groaned. “Do you ever sleep?”“Not when my roommate decides to skip dinner and disappear all night.” Mira sat cross-legged on her bed, hair tied up, she was still in her training boots. “We were about to start a search party.”Lira was leaning against the wall with a book in her hand. She closed it slowly, her eyes scanning Aria like she was studying a suspect. “You didn’t eat.”“I’m fine,” Aria muttered, kicking off her boots.“Fine,” Mira mocked, throwing a pillow at her. “That’s what people say when they’re absolutely not fine.”Aria caught the pillow and tossed it back. “You’re dramatic.”“And you’re avoiding us.” Mira leaned forward, her eyes narrowing. “So? Where’d you go? Don’t tell me you’ve been lingering in the training yard. Or…” Her voice pitched higher. “…don’t tell me you were with the Alpha.”Aria froze for ha
The Alpha’s Bane Duty And Desire.
The dining hall was quiet as always, save for the cutlery clinking against plates. The smell of roasted meat and spiced broth filling the air.General Thorne sat at the high table, his arms crossed and his eyes sweeping the room. His daughter’s seat was still empty.“Where’s Laura?” he asked finally, his voice cutting through the silence. Beta Darian didn’t look up from his meal. He smirked faintly. “With Lucan, I’d imagine.”General Thorne’s jaw tightened. “Again?”Selene, seated across from them, leaned back with a cunning smile. “Oh, not just ‘with Lucan,’ General. I was with them in the hall earlier. Looked like they had no intention of coming to dinner.”General Thorne frowned. “That girl… she’s not married yet.”Beta Darian chuckled. “They’re not pups anymore. You can’t watch them forever.”General Thorne gave him a hard look. “That’s exactly what a father does.”Selene’s smile widened, enjoying the stir she’d caused. “You should be worried about more than just your daughter, G
