ZADEN'S POV

Moonstone pack

The sudden screech of the car tyres pulled me back from my reverie.

"Sir, we’re here,” my butler announced.

I turned my head toward the tinted window, my gaze steady as it settled on the sprawling estate beyond the glass, its presence as commanding as the name it bore.

That familiar knot in my stomach tightened again.

Right then, the sound of tyres pulled in behind the car, one after the other, announcing the arrival of the convoy.

  • The Cry of a Lycan   Chapter 48: Against all odds

    LEINNA'S POV Hours stretched into an eternity, my fingers digging into the matted knots of my hair. My only task had been simple: watch the deer roasting over the fire.But as the acrid scent of burning meat began to taint the air, it was clear I was failing.“Where are you?”The question echoed bitterly in my mind as my eyes scanned the clearing for the hundredth time. The surrounding woods remained unnervingly still, offering nothing but the hollow sigh of the wind through the canopy.Alaric and the others were still out hunting, clearly indifferent to my absence. Even Mehan was likely hovering over Kael, too consumed by him to remember the friend who had only just opened their eyes after three days of unconsciousness.The sting of their abandonment tasted like ash.I was completely, utterly alone, without a single soul to lean on; the thought made me weary.With passing time, my eyelids grew heavy. I was only a second away from succumbing to sleep when the sound of a noise shatte

  • The Cry of a Lycan   Chapter 47: The cure

    LEINNA'S POV A cacophony of overlapping voices clawed at my consciousness, a jarring wall of sound that grated against my raw nerves. You tried to turn my head, my eyelashes fluttering, but a heavy, unyielding hand pinned me in place. My instinct overrode reason as my body fought against the restraint, jerking violently forward to wrench myself free from my invisible captors. “Leinna." The voice cut through the chaos, but I kept fighting. “Leinna, listen to me. You're safe." "Alaric?" The name was like a key that made the rigid tension in my muscles snap, and my resistance collapsed. My eyes fluttered open, instantly squinting against the blinding lances of sunlight pouring through a nearby window. As I gasped for air, the rich, sharp scent of damp earth flooded my senses. The cool oxygen rushed into my lungs, revitalizing my aching body with a strange, electrifying intensity. Blinking rapidly against the glare, my focus shifted from the wooden ceiling down to the figure h

  • The Cry of a Lycan   Chapter 46: Flashback

    Melani’s Pov Riverstone pack 10 years ago The first slap didn’t even register as pain; it was just a sudden, blinding white flash. My head whipped sideways, a piercing shriek echoing in my eardrums as the room smeared into a dizzying blur. I kept my eyes locked on the floor as I withdrew. I knew the rules. "Look at me." My stomach dropped, but I forced my chin up. Mother’s face was a mask of pure venom, her lips curled in a sneer of utter disgust. "You humiliated me." "I'm... sorry, Mother." “Sorry?" she hissed, stalking forward like a predator. "Do you think a pathetic apology rewrites today?" I bit down on the inside of my cheek until the metallic tang of blood flooded my tongue before choking back the sob burning my throat. She despised tears and saw them as a fatal weakness. “Fayal decimated her opponent in front of the entire clan," Mother spat, her voice dripping with envy. "They cheered for her. They called her a true heir to Alpha Kayak's blood." I backed a

  • The Cry of a Lycan   Chapter 45: Training (3)

    ENISA'S POV Silverstone pack "Well, if this is what training looks like, it really must be blissful for you, Enisa." A cocky smile curved Melani's lips as she spoke, her tone dripping with amusement. Zaden's grasp on me loosened, and he helped me back onto my feet. "What brings you here?" He hummed. "Curiosity." The answer came easily. She strolled leisurely into the training pit, her hands clasped behind her back, her spine perfectly straight, and was wearing the same combat attire I had changed into, paired with black leather boots. Her gaze drifted upward toward the vaulted ceiling high above us. Sunlight poured through the openings near the roof in thick golden columns, cutting through the haze of dust suspended in the air. The drifting particles danced lazily around her as she walked, giving her the appearance of someone stepping onto a stage rather than entering a training ground. "Tell me, Zaden. How long has it been since you fought someone at your l

  • The Cry of a Lycan   Chapter 44: Training (2)

    ENISA's POV The wooden practice blade sliced through the humid morning air, stopping a fraction of an inch from my throat. I was already bent double, hands on my knees, gasping for air. Zaden's breathing remained steady, entirely unaffected by the grueling hour we had spent in the training pit. "Drop your chin, Enisa," he said, his voice leveled but laced with the sharp edge of experience. "You leave your neck exposed like that, and you're dead in the water.” I pushed myself upright, arms trembling. I forced my foot forward into a defensive stance, but my muscles screamed in protest. I simply couldn't keep up. My reaction times were lagging, my boots dragging heavily through the packed dirt. "I'm trying," I panted, wiping the sweat from my eyes with the back of a dirt-streaked forearm. "Everything just moves too fast." "Combat isn't about speed," he countered, taking a slow step closer. "It's about anticipation and the economy of movement. You're wasting energy by overthi

  • The Cry of a Lycan   Chapter 43: Training

    ENISA'S POV Silverstone pack The first thing I registered was the cold. It wasn’t a gentle, creeping chill, but a violent, gasping shock that slammed into my chest, stealing the air right out of my lungs. I bolted upright, choking on a lungful of water that burned my nose. My eyes snapped open as a freezing torrent of water crashed over me, turning the world into a blinding, soaking haze. Cascading down my wet, matted hair, into my nightgown and plastering it against my shivering body. Drenching the blanket, pillow, and every inch of my exposed skin. I sputtered, coughing as a stray rivulet rushed up my nose and itching down the back of my throat. My heart hammered against my ribs like a trapped bird. Disoriented and blind, I frantically swiped the wet hair out of my eyes, the motion doing nothing to stop the heavy droplets from stinging my cheeks. I was drowning on dry land. "What in the name of seven hells!" I shrieked, the words catching on a sob of pure, unadulter

    ENISA'S POV “Zaden.” It was Melani who called out to him. Hearing her voice up close sent a chill crawling down my spine. Zaden halted in his tracks before finally lifting his head to look at her, just as she stopped directly in front of him. Everyone else had already gone inside; no one remained

    ENISA'S POV “Dreadlock.” The way he called his name awakened something in me, undiluted fear. A gunshot fired into the air, the sound reverberating through the estate like a distant echo. Alpha Dreadlock remained perfectly still, unfazed by the turmoil around us. “Kayak, you honor me with your
