Calla's Perspective

I woke to the sound of hurried footsteps in the corridor outside my room, followed by familiar voices getting closer. The medical wing. I was in the packhouse medical wing, and judging by the quality of light filtering through the windows, it was either very early morning or late afternoon. My body felt like I'd been hit by a truck, then trampled by whatever supernatural equivalent of a stampede existed.

"We are awake," Lyra said with relief so profound it made my chest tight. "I was beginning to worry you had retreated too far into yourself."

The door burst open and Maya rushed in, still wearing workout clothes and looking slightly out of breath. Thorne was right behind her, also looking like they'd been interrupted in the middle of something physical.

"How long?" I croaked, my voice barely more than a whisper.

Maya's face broke into a grin that was equal parts relief and exhaustion as she hurried to my bedside. "Two and a half days. You scared the hell out of all

  • The Prophecy of the Golden Wolf    Chapter 26

    Alpha Kieran's Perspective The road to Moonveil territory stretched ahead of us like a ribbon of possibility, and my wolf, Dominion, was practically vibrating with anticipation as our convoy approached the border markers. I'd pushed my pack to travel through the night, arriving twelve hours ahead of schedule, but the urgency wasn't born from diplomatic necessity—it was born from opportunity. "The Golden Wolf," Dominion said with hungry satisfaction. "Finally, we will meet her." "Patience," I murmured, though my own excitement was barely contained. "We need to assess the situation first." "Alpha," came my Beta Jasper's voice from the passenge

  • The Prophecy of the Golden Wolf    Chapter 25

    Alpha Sebastian's PerspectiveI stood at the window of my guest quarters, watching the early morning mist rise from the Moonveil forest, but my mind was far from the peaceful scenery. The events of yesterday had shifted the entire political landscape in ways I was still processing, and my wolf, Atlas, was practically vibrating with a mixture of satisfaction and strategic anticipation."Our Beta has found her mate," Atlas said with deep approval. "The bond between our packs is now sealed in the most sacred way possible."The mate bond between Connor and Aoife changed everything. What had begun as exploratory diplomatic negotiations had suddenly become something far more significant—a permanent alliance sealed not by treaties or political agreements, but by the unbreakable bond between destined mates.A soft rustling from the other side of the room interrupted my thoughts. Madiso

  • The Prophecy of the Golden Wolf    Chapter 24

    Beta Connor's PerspectiveThe morning of the Howling Ridge pack's arrival brought a restless energy that had nothing to do with diplomatic negotiations. I stood at the edge of the training grounds, watching the early patrol teams return from their rounds, but my wolf Sterling was pacing with an agitation I couldn't explain."Something's different today," Sterling muttered, his awareness stretched taut like a wire about to snap. "The air feels charged."I'd felt it too—a subtle shift in the atmosphere that made my skin prickle with anticipation. As Beta, I was responsible for coordinating pack security during the diplomatic meetings, which meant I'd been running on three hours of sleep and too much coffee for the past week. But this restlessness

  • The Prophecy of the Golden Wolf    Chapter 23

    Calla's Perspective (Same Day)I stood at my bedroom window watching the expensive convoy pull up three hours earlier than expected, my stomach dropping as I realized I wasn't mentally prepared for this moment. The formal green dress Anya had chosen for me hung on the closet door, still waiting while I stood in jeans and an oversized sweater, feeling more like an overwhelmed teenager than a legendary Golden Wolf."We are ready," Lyra said firmly in my mind. "Whether we feel it or not.""Easy for you to say," I muttered, rushing to change clothes. "You don't have to worry about accidentally starting a diplomatic incident."The mindlink explosion from downstairs made me wince—multiple voices overlapping in urgent mental chatter about the early arrival. I could feel the pack's nervous energy like electricity in the air, which only made my own anxiety spike higher. 

  • The Prophecy of the Golden Wolf    Chapter 22

    Alpha Finn of Silvermoon's PerspectiveThe forest road leading to Moonveil territory brought back memories I hadn't expected. Twenty-five years since I'd last driven this route, and the towering pines still looked exactly the same—ancient sentinels guarding secrets I'd once been privileged to share. Beside me, Lydia adjusted her blonde hair for the third time in ten minutes, her nervous energy filling our rental car despite her outward composure."You're fidgeting," I observed with fond amusement, reaching over to squeeze her hand. "It's just Alric and Anya. You've known them for decades.""I'm not fidgeting," Lydia protested, then immediately started smoothing her dress. "I'm... preparing. There's a difference. And it's not just Alric and Anya anymore, Finn. We're here to meet a Golden Wolf who's apparently created some kind of supernatural communication network. That's not exactly a casual social

  • The Prophecy of the Golden Wolf    Chapter 21

    Calla's Perspective: "I still don't understand how it works," I admitted to Iris a few days before Silver Moon was set to arrive. We sat in the packhouse garden, surrounded by Maya's magically enhanced flowers that seemed to bloom more vibrantly whenever she was nervous about something. The afternoon sun cast long shadows across the carefully tended beds, but I barely noticed the peaceful setting—my mind was too occupied with the impending diplomatic meeting that could determine the future of werewolf cooperation.Iris set down her tea cup with careful precision and studied me with those pale blue eyes that always seemed to see more than they should. At seventy-three, she carried herself with the quiet confidence of someone who'd spent decades understanding magical complexities that others couldn't even perceive. "Before you meet with other pack leaders, you need to understand your own abilities completely. Tell me exactly what you remember from the battle with Kane. Step by step, ev
