I let out another roar—deeper this time. Not a howl. A command.

It ripped through the trees, rolled over the hills, and echoed back to me like thunder bouncing off the spine of a god.

And then I waited.

Five heartbeats later, the first came crashing through the brush.

Brad.

Followed by Crawl.

Then Leo and Dex.

Joseph arrived last, panting, barefoot, fists clenched like he was ready to punch Death in the teeth.

They circled me in the snow, joining Wallace and Grimm. Eyes scanning the woods,

  • The Bane And The Alpha Beast   Chapter 128 – Threads Converging

    EliraMovement returned to Shadowhearth quickly.Where there had been tension and hesitation only moments ago, there was now purpose. Caelan’s men and their mates began filtering in from the outer edges of the pack grounds, their attention shifting toward the newcomers with quiet efficiency as they prepared to help everyone settle. Voices carried across the open space—directions, greetings, the low hum of people stepping into something new together.It should have felt overwhelming.Instead, it felt… right.Like something long delayed was finally falling into place.I was watching it all unfold when something in my chest shifted.Not sharply. Not painfully.Just… there.A pull.Familiar.My breath caught before I could stop it.Caelan noticed immediately.“What is it?” he asked, stepping closer, his attention narrowing on me.I didn’t answer right away. I tilted my head slightly, trying to place the sensation, trying to understand it without forcing it into something it wasn’t.“I thi

  • The Bane And The Alpha Beast   Chapter 127 – The Weight of a Crown

    RonanThe realm had fallen into order, though not in any way that could be called peaceful.What Ash had unleashed onto the surface had been dragged back where it belonged, forced into submission under a rule that did not allow for hesitation or negotiation. Every demon that had crossed over had been accounted for, pulled back through portals I could now open and close with growing ease, their presence lingering at the edges of my awareness like threads I could track without effort.The ones who resisted did not last long.There were no dungeons waiting for them, no prolonged punishments meant to make a spectacle of suffering. Defiance was handled cleanly and swiftly, not out of cruelty, but because anything less would have been seen as weakness. The first few who tested it had learned that quickly, and word spread faster than any decree ever could.Now the realm held.Not because they trusted me.But because they understood what I was.And more importantly, what I would do.Time move

  • The Bane And The Alpha Beast   Chapter 126 – What She Sees

    EliraThe silence lingered for only a moment after Zane’s words faded.Then he exhaled sharply and glanced around, finally seeming to notice that he had an audience.“Show’s over,” he muttered, dragging a hand through his hair.It wasn’t loud, but it carried enough.People shifted almost immediately, turning away, pretending they hadn’t been watching, hadn’t been listening. Conversations picked back up in low murmurs, movement resumed, and within seconds the moment dissolved into something that looked almost normal again.Almost.I stayed where I was, watching Zane walk away without looking at Dex again, watching Dex remain exactly where he stood for a second longer before forcing himself to move as well.Neither of them had resolved anything.They had only made it real.Beside me, Caelan let out a quiet breath.“Well,” he said, his tone thoughtful as his gaze followed them, “I think it’s safe to say everyone knows now.”I glanced up at him, then back toward the space where Zane and D

  • The Bane And The Alpha Beast   Chapter 125 – You Don’t Get to Ignore This

    ZaneI knew.That was the part I couldn’t get past, no matter how hard I tried to push it down or pretend it hadn’t happened.From the moment I saw him in that cabin, something in me had recognized him in a way that didn’t ask permission and didn’t wait for me to catch up. It hadn’t been confusion or curiosity. It had been immediate, sharp, and absolute, like something inside me had stepped forward and claimed him before I had a chance to think.Mate.The word had hit me just as hard as it had hit him, and that was exactly why I didn’t want to deal with it.I moved on instinct when we stopped, swinging down from the horse and reaching up to help Bella without thinking too deeply about it. My hands settled at her waist as I lifted her down, steadying her as her feet hit the ground.She slipped—just enough to make it believable—and fell into me with a soft laugh.“I’ve got you,” I muttered, catching her easily.Her hand lingered against my chest, her body still close, and I let it happe

  • The Bane And The Alpha Beast   Chapter 124 – The Ride Back

    EliraThe journey out of the wastelands felt longer than it should have.Not because the distance had changed, but because everything between us had.The cart rolled steadily beneath us, the rhythm of the wheels blending with the soft, uneven cadence of hooves against dry ground as we moved farther from the harsh stillness of the wastelands and closer to something that resembled life again. The air shifted gradually, losing that hollow, watchful edge, but the tension inside our small group didn’t ease with it.If anything, it tightened.Caelan sat beside me, one arm resting loosely along the back of the cart, his posture relaxed enough for anyone looking to think nothing was wrong—but I felt the subtle awareness in him, the way his attention kept drifting forward without him fully turning his head.Because of them.Dex rode ahead of us on his own horse, his back straight, his movements controlled in a way that didn’t match the usual easy confidence I had seen from him earlier. There w

  • The Bane And The Alpha Beast   Chapter 123 – Not What He Wanted

    EliraSomething shifted the moment Zane stepped through the door.Dex went still in a way that would have gone unnoticed if I hadn’t been watching him already. It wasn’t obvious, nothing dramatic enough to draw attention from the others, but it was there in the subtle tightening through his shoulders, in the way his focus narrowed too quickly, locking onto Zane as though the rest of the room had quietly fallen away.Zane didn’t notice at first. He stepped inside like he had any other time, his attention moving through the space, taking in the supplies, the people, the shift in atmosphere without giving it much thought.Then his gaze landed on Dex.And held.Not long enough to be called out, not long enough for anyone else to question it, but just long enough to feel like something had passed between them without a single word being spoken.Caelan and I had been the only ones to hear Dex’s whispered declaration. I felt the shift in Caelan beside me, the subtle turn of his head as he c

    AshTime bends in my realm.It coils around itself like a serpent devouring its own tail—sometimes stretching thin, sometimes folding in tight, cruel loops. On the surface, perhaps a single day has crawled by.Here?She has lived a

    EliraI stopped asking how long I’ve been here.It doesn’t matter. Not in this place.Not when the hours melt into each other like candle wax—slow, warm, and irreversible.I don’t even remember what my voice used to sound like when I screamed.Now, when I speak, the air obeys.Today, I turned ash i

    RonanThe Alpha’s Hall was quiet. Not silent—never silent. You could hear breath, boots, the creak of old wood, the steady beat of war-trained hearts under the surface.Caelan stood at the head of the room, arms crossed over his chest like he was ready to snap them apart into claws if anyone so muc

    CaelanThe door shut with a quiet click, sealing us inside the strategy room.No ears. No whispers. No distractions.Just five men I trusted with my life—and now, maybe with something far bigger.Ven stood to my left, arms crossed, tension etched into his jaw. On my right sat Hank and Samson. Acros
