KERES’s POV

The smell of burnt flesh and medicinal herb filled my lungs as I stepped closer to the bed.

My heart clenched painfully at the sight of my grandmother. She… she must have been in pain. It must hurt than hell to be affected this much. She’s the woman who raised me when the world took everything else away but when she needed me, I wasn’t there. My stomach churned at the thought of Ember… it was like that too. I was never around.

I watch her lay there… motionless, skin charred in places and bandages wrapped around her fragile body.

The rise and fall of her chest was shallow…too shallow.

“Grandmother…” My voice broke.

I dropped to my knees beside the bed, reaching carefully for her hand. The parts not burned were ice cold.

“Who did this?” I whispered.

“Just a name… just” My voice broke. Unable to get used to the coldness of her skin. Her fingers didn’t even twitch nor did her eyes move beneath her lids. The silence crushed me.

“Grandmother… please,” I begged, voice cracking.

    SHAWN’s POVThe marriage ritual ended with cheers that were loud and endless.It’s been two weeks since Alpha Leo made us wait, observing and forcing courtship.Weeks of proving something I wasn’t even sure I believed in when this all started. In the name of showing my love for Sasha before everyone, we’ve attended arranged dates, public outings where I had to hold Sasha’s hand as my life depended on it. To prove to everyone I was serious and different from Alpha Kereswhos not even my Alpha.We’ve put up with ridiculous couples games during pack gatherings. Even going as far as cooking together in front of elders like we were some love story they could brag about.There was even one time they made me serenade her.Me.Serenade.If someone told me months ago I would be standing in front of an entire pack singing badly while Sasha tried not to laugh, I would have punched them. But Alpha Leo watched and measured everything and only when he was finally convinced did he agree to the marria

    EMBER~Night swallowed me whole the moment I stepped fully into the forest. Wet branches clawed at my armsas I tried not to let the roots trip me for the hundredth time.I haven’t had time to change because I never stopped running. My chant throughout was that, as long as I kept running, I would be safe. The cold wind bit into my skin beneath the thin maid uniform but I didn’t stop because every time I slowed, I saw Keres’s face in my mind; cold,and distant.Every time I blinked, I saw Elder Maera’s smile… and guilt stabbed straight through my chest so I increased my pace each time.Hours passed and my lungs burned. Aethonerra stayed quiet all through, supporting me from the inside even though she’s been weak with my poor feeding. But I could feel her sorrow sitting heavy inside me.“You’re pushing us too far, she whispered once”“I know,” I whispered back hoarsely. “Just… a little more.”****By dawn, my steps were clumsy but I didn’t stop.By noon, I was barely moving and starving

    KERES~Dayatt was still on the ground when I turned to leave, only to be stopped by the sarcastic voice of her laughter.Even though it sounded weak and hurt, now is not the time to care.She rasped, clutching her stomach, “Do you think you can just throw me away like this? Do you even know the role I play in your pack? Without me… you’ll grow powerless.”I stopped then slowly turned back to her.For a second, I saw the old Dayatt, proud, sharp, and confident.I forced a smile, my hand clenched tight in my pocket.“I put you in that position Dayatt,” I said flatly. “I can replace you just as easily.”When I said that, her face fell. I stepped closer.“You’ll take the mansion I own in the city,” I continued. “Consider it payment for your years of service to the pack.”Her lips trembled.“But every access you have to my trades, my businesses, my networks…” I said, voice turning colder, “They’ll all be cut off.”Her eyes widened. Now the truth was settling in.She never expected any of t

    ALPHA KERES~The night air at the border felt lighter than it had in weeks. And for the first time since the explosion… since the night that shattered everything, I could breathe because the repairs were complete.Two solid weeks of rebuilding roads, reinforcing the bridge, securing the perimeter, and tracking possible rogue trails — all done.I stood outside my tent earlier, watching the last reinforcement beams get hammered into place, and something inside me loosened. Relief, pride, and definitely something warmer.Tomorrow I would return to the pack where I would see Ember.My pulse quickened at the thought because over these two weeks, I had replayed that last moment with her more times than I could count.The hurt and disappointment in her eyes. When she called me unreliable, it burned deeper than any wound.And every night, lying on that hard cot, staring at the canvas roof of my tent, I practiced what I would say to her.I’m sorry. I should have believed you. I was afraid of l

  • The Female Alpha And Her God Of War   Chapter 89

    EMBER~Since the afternoon heat has clung to the walls of my room like a second skin. I decided to sit quietly on the chair facing my balcony, letting the warm breeze brush across my face. Outside, sunlight filtered through the trees, painting golden patches across the courtyard.The only peaceful moment I’ve felt since the day started was when I noticed a bird. It was perched on the branch of the tall tree beside my building, carefully feeding tiny open beaks inside a nest. The little ones chirped greedily, stretching their necks, trusting completely that their mother would return every time.A soft smile touched my lips and for a moment… I forgot everything.Shortly after, reality crept back in.It had been two weeks since Keres left for the border. Two weeks of silence and painful distance. Day of wondering if the mate bond still hurts him the way his ridiculous absence does to me.I stood slowly now, with my hand resting on the arm of the chair to support myself, and turned toward
