Tricia’s POV

The Blood Moon hung high above the courtyard, burning crimson across the sky and turning every shadow sharp, every movement dangerous.

I stood at the edge of the circle, feeling the pulse of the pack. The tension was thick enough to choke. I could sense Blake struggling against the poison that gnawed at him like a living thing. His claws scraped against the stone beneath him, teeth bared, and even from where I stood I could feel the poison tearing through him.

    Tricia’s POVThe Blood Moon hung high above the courtyard, burning crimson across the sky and turning every shadow sharp, every movement dangerous.I stood at the edge of the circle, feeling the pulse of the pack. The tension was thick enough to choke. I could sense Blake struggling against the poison that gnawed at him like a living thing. His claws scraped against the stone beneath him, teeth bared, and even from where I stood I could feel the poison tearing through him.Tristan moved with a confidence I hated. Every motion was precise, controlled, like he had done this a thousand times before. He didn’t hesitate, didn’t falter. The smirk on his face told me he believed victory was already his.The pack watched.And I could feel their fear.Their loyalty wavered, their instincts screaming at them to choose the stronger wolf.The bond between Blake and me strained, stretched tight like a rope pulled over jagged stone. I felt every pulse of his pain. Every twitch of his wolf as it fo

  • The Alpha’s human mate   Chapter 19

    BlakeThe moment Tristan announced his claim, every instinct inside me ignited like wildfire, My wolf roared, claws pushing beneath my skin, teeth aching to tear into him.But the poison fought back.It twisted through my veins, gnawing at my strength with brutal precision. My vision blurred for a heartbeat, and I stumbled forward, nearly collapsing in the middle of the courtyard.Only the bond kept me upright.Tricia’s hand pressed firmly against me, steady and unyielding. The connection between us tightened, anchoring me when my body threatened to give out.Around us, the pack erupted in murmurs—shock, fear, and disbelief rippling through the courtyard.The elders also stared openly now, unable to hide their astonishment. An Alpha faltering before the pack during a Blood Moon was unheard of. An Alpha weakened by poison while standing beside his mate was even worse.Tristan stepped closer.Confidence radiated from him like heat from a flame. Every step he took sent another wave of f

  • The Alpha’s human mate   Chapter 18

    Tricia’s POVThe moment the strange words left my mouth, the courtyard fell into a silence so deep that even the wind moving across the estate seemed to pause.I don’t understand what I just said.The sound of the language still echoed faintly in my ears, but it didn’t belong to any voice I recognized, the syllables carried a rhythm that felt older, by the time the final word faded from my lips, I realized I never chose the language at all.It simply arrived.My hand was still pressed against Blake’s chest when I noticed the change around us.The wolves filling the courtyard moments ago were no longer standing the way they were before. One by one, their heads began to lower. None of them seemed aware of why they were doing that, their bodies responded to the command naturally..Confusion tightened in my chest.I never told them to do anything. I only whispered those strange words without even understanding what they meant.“Blake,” I said quietly, the uncertainty in my voice impossi

  • The Alpha’s human mate   Chapter 17

    Blake’s POVThe tremor hits first as a subtle vibration beneath my feet. The stone of the Blackwood estate feels alive, and instinct tells me this is not an ordinary quake.The Blood Moon.It should not be rising tonight. Every instinct inside me knows that the sky is breaking the natural order that governs the packs. The elders track the moon with obsessive precision because the timing has always been sacred, yet the vibration spreading through the walls of the estate tells me the moon is climbing into the sky far earlier than it should.Tristan moved toward the stairway, and the moment he pushed the archive door open the red light spilling down from the upper levels confirms it.The Blood Moon has begun its ascent.The courtyard turned into chaos instantly. Wolves screamed, stumbled and ran in confusion. By the time Tristan and I reached the upper corridor, the panic among the pack had already begun spreading.The elders arrived moments later.They rush across the courtyard toward

  • The Alpha’s human mate   Chapter 16

    Tricia’s pov The moment Tristan’s blade left my skin, pain exploded through my neck—sharp and violent, like fire tearing through dry wood. A breath rips from my lungs before I could stop it. This is nothing compared to the first cut. That one felt like poison spreading into my blood slowly, deliberate and cruel. This is different. This feels forced. Driven deeper. My knees weaken, but I refuse to fall. Tristan is still watching, and I will not give him the satisfaction of seeing me collapse. Blake moves first. The instant my blood hits the air, fury ignites in his eyes. The bond between us snapped tight as his wolf surged forward with the same violent instinct that nearly tore Tristan apart in the council hall. “Blake,” I managed, though the word came out uneven. The burning began to spread. At first, I expected the same sickness as before—the slow drag into darkness, the weakness that followed the poison’s path through my veins. But this time— Something was

  • The Alpha’s human mate   Chapter 15

    Blake’s POVThe bond between us does not speak in words, yet when fear moves through it, I feel it instantly.I was in the training courtyard with several warriors when it hits—sharp and sudden, like a blade sliding between my ribs. It’s not mine , not the anger that had followed me since Tristan returned.This is hers.Cold. Suffocating.My body reacted before my mind caught up.I turned toward the main building without saying a word. The warriors nearby fell silent the moment they saw my expression. They knew something was wrong, they just didn't know what.Tricia was in danger.The poison inside my veins flares as I move through the corridor, but the pain barely registers because the only thing that matters, was finding her, the bond pulls at me, feeding fragments into my chest.Lower floors.Stone walls.The old archives beneath the western wing.The moment the realization hits me, I break into a run.Servants stepped out of my path. No one speaks. No one dares. Every wolf in thi

    The message Tristan sent had spread through the pack faster than any official announcement could control. Fear always travels faster than truth. Before the sun reached its highest point, whispers of the severed finger and the threat written beside it had filled every corridor of the Blackwood estat

    The entire pack knows about the challenge before the night ends. The whispers spread through the hall like fire moving through dry grass, because wolves do not keep secrets when blood and power are involved. Everyone understands that the Blood Moon trial is not a simple fight but a moment that wil

    Blake’s POVThe silence in the council hall did not break for several seconds after Tristan spoke.It was not the quiet of confusion, It was the quiet of shock. Every wolf in that room understood what those words meant, yet none of them seemed willing to speak first.My half-brother.The phrase ec
