Seraphina's calm command settled over the training ground, carrying enough authority to silence every remaining voice. The afternoon breeze stirred lightly through the trees surrounding the clearing, lifting strands of hair and carrying the familiar scent of earth, pine, and worn leather.

Only a handful of trainees remained. Those dismissed earlier had already returned to their duties, leaving behind a quieter training ground where every movement became easier to observe.

  • The Alpha's Greatest Mistake    CHAPTER THIRTY

    Unlike the busy council chamber or the disciplined training grounds, there was one place within Bluemoon where Alpha Kael occasionally allowed himself moments of quiet reflection. It was a secluded stone pavilion overlooking the lake, hidden beneath towering willow trees whose long branches swayed gently above the calm water. Very few wolves knew about it. Fewer still had ever been invited there.Alpha Kael stood alone beside the carved stone railing, watching the fading sunlight dance across the surface of the lake. His hands rested calmly behind his back, yet his thoughts refused to settle with the same discipline his expression displayed.The past several weeks had altered the rhythm of his life more than he wished to admit. Matters of leadership still occupied most of his attention, but beneath every report and every meeting lingered one question he could never entirely silence.His wolf stirred quietly, you thought about her again. Alpha Kael kept his

  • The Alpha's Greatest Mistake    CHAPTER TWENTY-NINE

    Unlike previous mornings, Lina awoke with a quiet determination. The uncertainty remained, but today she would finally seek answers instead of carrying her questions alone.She dressed slowly, choosing simple training clothes that allowed easy movement before tying her hair neatly behind her shoulders. Her reflection appeared no different from the day before, yet she knew appearances no longer reflected what she had been feeling inside.A soft knock sounded at her door. Lina opened it almost immediately. Elena stood waiting with an encouraging smile, dressed in her light warrior attire rather than full combat gear. She looked calm as always, though Lina could sense the quiet concern she continued trying to hide.Ready?Lina nodded. As ready as I can be. Together they left, walking through the peaceful streets of Bluemoon while the pack slowly settled into another productive morning. Merchants arranged baskets of fruit outside their shops while cra

  • The Alpha's Greatest Mistake    CHAPTER TWENTY-EIGHT

    Lina had been awake for hours. Sleep had visited her only in fragments, interrupted by unfamiliar sensations she could neither explain nor ignore. Every time she closed her eyes, it felt as though something deep inside her shifted quietly before disappearing again the moment she tried to understand it.She remained seated on the edge of her bed, staring absentmindedly toward the open window. The breeze carried the comforting scent of pine trees, damp earth, and fresh morning dew.Normally, she barely noticed those scents. Today they felt unusually vivid, almost overwhelming. She frowned. Perhaps she had simply become more observant after everything that had happened during the past few weeks. The strange evaluation, the growing whispers throughout the pack, and the confusing bond connecting her to Alpha Kael had left her emotions constantly unstable.That explanation seemed reasonable. Yet something inside her refused to accept it completely. She stood slo

  • The Alpha's Greatest Mistake    CHAPTER TWENTY-SEVEN

    Near the northern side of the Pack House stood the Hall of Elders, one of the oldest buildings in the Bluemoon pack. Unlike the grand council chamber where official meetings were held, this place carried quiet dignity. Thick stone walls, ancient wooden beams, and carefully preserved carvings reflected generations of wisdom that had guided the pack long before Alpha Kael's birth.Many younger wolves rarely entered the hall. It belonged to those whose strength had been earned through experience rather than battle.Inside, several elders had already gathered around a circular wooden table polished by decades of use. Cups of steaming herbal tea rested before them as they discussed harvest preparations, patrol rotations, and the approaching change of seasons.Elder Cedric, the oldest among them, listened more than he spoke. His grey hair and weathered features reflected a lifetime devoted to Bluemoon, while his sharp eyes missed very little despite his advancin

    The first rays of dawn spilled across the towering walls of the Pack House, bathing the stone structure in soft golden light. Before most of Bluemoon had begun its morning routines, Alpha Kael was already awake, standing beside the wide window of his office overlooking the peaceful territory.From that height, he could see smoke rising from the kitchens where breakfast preparations had begun. Patrol wolves returned through the eastern gate after guarding the borders throughout the night, while servants moved quietly between buildings to begin another day.To many, the pack appeared calm. To Alpha Kael, calm demanded constant work. He left the window and crossed the spacious office, where several neatly arranged scrolls, maps, and written reports covered the large oak table occupying the center of the room. Every document represented another responsibility that required his attention before the day truly began.A gentle knock sounded against the heavy woode

    Lina remained where she stood, her attention drawn toward the quiet laughter drifting through the evening garden. The sound carried a warmth that felt strangely unfamiliar, gentle enough to invite curiosity yet intimate enough to make her wonder whether she should simply continue walking.The central garden rested beneath the fading glow of sunset, where soft amber light filtered through flowering trees and painted long shadows across carefully trimmed hedges. White blossoms swayed gently in the evening breeze while the fragrance of roses and jasmine lingered peacefully throughout the grounds.She hesitated for only a moment before taking another careful step. Not because she wished to intrude. Only because the pathway leading back to her quarters passed beside the garden, leaving little choice but to continue unless she turned completely around.As she rounded a hedge covered in climbing roses, the voices became clearer. One belonged to Alpha Kael and the

    The silence after the crash did not feel like absence. It felt like pressure.Like the world itself had leaned in, waiting to see whether she would break.Lina stood motionless for a moment, her chest rising in uneven pulls, each breath sharp and unsteady as though her lungs had forgotten their rhyt

    It was a calm and quiet afternoon. Lina’s door banged open again.“What do they want this time?” she murmured under her breath.“Stand up,” the guard said.His voice was firm, but not harsh this time.Lina stood slowly, her body already tense with expectation. She had learned enough to recognize pa

    After the day of the assembly, every week one or two girls were sold. Armed men in cars came to buy them. One of the girls who cooked and served both the men and the girls in the camp told LinaThe girl moved quietly, almost blending into the background. She was of average height, slim but not weak

  • The Alpha's Greatest Mistake    CHAPTER ONE

    Lina was woken by a heavy strike on her head, the impact sharp and brutal, sending a sharp pain through her skull. A broken gasp tore from her lips as her body jerked violently, her hands instinctively flying up too late to shield herself.For a moment, she could not breathe. Her chest tightened pa
