Daeira POV

I woke up to the sound of running water, a servant humming, and sunlight slipping through the curtains. For a heartbeat, I forgot the world I’d crawled out of, the blood, the sneers, the hunger that made my hands shake.

Lunaryn nudged me sleepily. “Come on, lazy goddess. There’s work to do.”

Tarin knocked gently before bursting in, armed with towels and smug domestic authority. She fussed over my hair, braided it half up, and plied me with breakfast I couldn’t refuse. I devoured pancakes like a woman reclaiming stolen time.

Velwyn bustled around the suite like a general disguised as a grandmother. Royce was downstairs fussing over maps, Bennick rearranged schedules like he was conducting an orchestra, and the staff peeked in at me like I was a comet that finally returned to orbit.

If someone had told me a month ago that I’d be eating real food in silk sheets with servants calling me Alpha, I would’ve laughed myself sick. But here I was.

After breakfast, Tarin led me on

  • The Last White Wolf & Her Chosen Kings   #99 The Pack Grows Stronger

    Daeira POVThe war room crackled with tension as I leaned over the table, my palms flat and my gum snapping furiously. Thessaly had just reported that Kade went out hunting on his own and brought back food for an entire village.I blinked at her. Huh.Lunaryn purred in my mind, "Well, well. Maybe the little Bloodmark pup isn’t all rotten after all. Still smells like trouble though."“Interesting,” I muttered. “But that doesn’t change shit. Roach is still out there pulling strings, and we need to figure out how to cut him off at the knees before he spreads more rot.”The room erupted. Riven slammed his hand down. “Fuck Roach. He’s a parasite. Let me hunt him down and carve that smug look off his face.”Kael growled low beside him. “No. Roach will expect rage. He thrives on it. We need precision, not a hot headed suicide mission.”Across the table, Auren tilted his head, ever curious. “What puzzles me is why Roach hasn’t moved directly against us yet. He has an army, but he’s stalling.

  • The Last White Wolf & Her Chosen Kings   #98 Redemption

    Kade Bloodmark POVTwo bedrooms. A little porch. A crooked chimney and a garden plot in the back that looked half dead but stubbornly alive. Hartfell had stood beside me, his arms crossed and his eyes unreadable, and said only, “It’s yours. Start fresh, Alpha Bloodmark.” Then he’d left me standing there with the key in my hand and silence thick around me.The cottage looked like it had been forgotten by time. Moss crept up the wooden beams, and ivy curled around the porch posts like lazy fingers. The roof sagged a little in the middle, but not enough to collapse. It was small and rough, but honest.Inside, the place smelled of old wood, dust, and faint herbs, sage, maybe. Not rot. Not blood. Not fear. Not like the keep I’d grown up in, where every wall whispered violence and ambition.Garian practically howled in joy the moment we stepped inside. “Ours,” he breathed, his voice soft for once. “Finally. Ours. No chains. No commands. Just… home.”Home. The word hit hard.I stood in the c

  • The Last White Wolf & Her Chosen Kings   #97 Probationary Period

    Kade Bloodmark POVI thought I was ready for war.Thought I was built for it, born from power, forged in brutality, and destined to rule through fear. I’d waited my whole life for this moment, standing at the head of thirty thousand wolves, armor gleaming, the Bloodmark crest burning red across my chest. Every heartbeat in my pack thudded in rhythm with mine, tethered by the bond of blood and magic.I was Alpha. Finally.And yet, the first time I saw her again, Daeira Seralyn, standing behind that radiant ward like a living sun wrapped in a storm, I felt my entire soul fracture.She was a goddess made flesh, wrapped in gold and moonlight, surrounded by monsters who looked ready to tear the world apart for her. Her aura rolled over the battlefield like thunder. The ward behind her pulsed with divine light, alive, connected to the land itself.Garian, my wolf, went wild inside me. “There she is,” he breathed, his voice trembling with awe and agony. “Our moon. Our true Luna.”My knees hi

  • The Last White Wolf & Her Chosen Kings   #96 Past...Meet Queen

    Roach POVI always preferred the quiet.Not the absence of sound, but the hush that comes just before a slaughter, like the world is holding its breath, pretending not to notice what's coming. I had the Bloodmark heirs right where I needed them. Power drunk. Angry. Easy.They thought they planned this. They didn’t.I moved through the back corridors of the keep with the ease of a shadow, until I reached my private chamber. Black drapes. Iron runes. Circles carved into the stone floor with tools not meant for mortal hands. In the center sat my prized possession: a glass mirror rimmed in jagged obsidian. A gift from Hell.I knelt, pressed my palm to the circle, and began to whisper. Words that would make lesser wolves bleed from the ears. Words that unlock doors better left sealed.Marik Bloodmark was never just cruel. He was possessed, by a high ranked demon I’d helped summon years ago. But where others made deals, I made promises. I swore myself to the deepest dark. And tonight, I cam

  • The Last White Wolf & Her Chosen Kings   #95 Fallen Alpha

    Kade Bloodmark POVRoach’s voice kept looping inside my skull like a devil’s mantra: They’re weak. They’re old. It’s your time now.I sat at the dining table beside Saria pretending to be calm, my elbows on polished mahogany, while my parents, Alpha Marik and Luna Danika, laughed over their wine goblets. Their plates were full of roast, potatoes, gravy, and the poison I’d personally stirred in.Roach leaned against the doorway, his arms loosely crossed and his eyes gleaming with that coiled snake readiness. Now or never, he had said. I lifted my fork to my lips, and looked across the table at Saria. She gave a tiny, vicious nod.Showtime.“So,” I said casually, turning to my father, “I’m ready to take over the pack.”He barked a laugh so loud the silverware rattled. “You? Lead my wolves? Pup, you haven’t earned shit!”My mother sipped her wine and sneered. “Neither of you are ready. You’d ruin everything we built.”They laughed at me. Mocked me. Right up until their throats began to c

  • The Last White Wolf & Her Chosen Kings   #94 New Daughter

    Daiera POVTwo hours later...The keep glowed bright well past midnight.Auren stood shirtless in the moonlit armory courtyard, his wings spread wide and his face serene in a way that made him look otherworldly. Holy golden light poured off his skin, bleeding into the barrels as he whispered celestial words I couldn’t even hear properly, only feel vibrating in my bones.With every pulse of his palms, the waters in the barrels churned into a glowing shimmer. Holy water. True, pure, and mighty.Beside him, soldiers dipped blades, arrowheads, spears, and anything sharp into the barrels, until the entire stockpile of Seralyn’s weapons thrummed with angelic magic.“Next,” Auren said, his voice hoarse, but his smile was soft. “Bring more.”Across the courtyard under the western awning, Thessaly and I sat cross legged in a circle of chalk and moon sigils, our skirts dark with spilled moonwater and chalk dust.We pressed shimmering moonstones and silver charms into warm wax seals, charging ea
