I stood my ground, unyielding, as the wolves of the Pack grew increasingly anxious. They were smart enough not to confront me directly, but their anger quickly found a new target—Virelle, the she-wolf who had set this mess into motion.“You’re the one to blame for all this, you deceitful traitor!” one of the lower-ranked wolves growled, his voice dripping with venom. “You didn’t even bother to verify your rumors before spreading them around the Pack!”“Right! You’re the cause of all our problems, and now we’re all at risk because of your reckless stupidity!” another wolf snarled, her fur bristling in anger.“And to think you claimed to be the Alpha’s Mate! Do you have no shame?” a third wolf spat, contempt oozing from every word.“We tried to befriend you, thinking you had some influence, and this is how we’re repaid? You should bear the weight of the consequences for all this destruction!” another barked, fury evident in her voice.“Exactly!” a different wolf joined in. “Don’t even th
The moment my words fell, a heavy silence blanketed the gathering. Virelle and the sycophantic parents who had so confidently stood by her side now wore expressions of sheer horror, their bravado crumbling as realization dawned on them. They had crossed a line they never should have dared approach.I cast them a frigid glare before turning to the Alpha enforcer, my voice sharp and unwavering. "Officer, my pup needs immediate medical attention. I expect this incident to be handled with the utmost seriousness, and I will ensure justice is served."The enforcer gave a curt nod. "Understood."Without hesitation, he ordered his pack warriors to escort the offenders to the Pack station. Before departing, he reminded me to provide documentation—receipts for the damaged property, medical reports detailing my injuries and my daughter’s. Only with a full record could the punishment be appropriately administered.I wasted no time, carrying my daughter to the Pack healer’s den. The scent of herbs
Alpha Bastian, the mate who had once vowed his devotion to me, now knelt at my feet, his head bowed low, his entire frame trembling with desperation.The sight of an Alpha—proud and once untouchable—reduced to this pitiful state sent shockwaves through the gathered wolves. Elders, warriors, and pack members alike stood frozen, their stunned silence louder than any outcry.Virelle, the she-wolf who had claimed my place, stood stiff and uncomprehending, her fingers clenching into fists. "What is this madness?" she demanded, her voice uneven. "Why does Alpha Bastian kneel before this Omega? Why does he call her his Luna?"A ripple of murmurs surged through the crowd, speculation twisting like a wildfire in the wind. Eyes turned to Virelle, their questioning gazes stripping away her once-impenetrable confidence.Her face lost its color, her breath hitched with barely contained fury. When she finally spoke, her words were laced with venom. "Bastian, what game are you playing? Why do you cal
When the long-buried truth clawed its way to the surface, the air around us thickened with tension.The instant Alpha Bastian’s gaze met mine, his entire body went rigid, his face draining of color as if he had been struck by a phantom blow. The arms that had been securely holding his heir, Caius, slackened without warning.Caius, who had been basking in his soon-to-be Alpha status, suddenly found himself plummeting to the ground. A sharp yelp of pain tore from his throat as he landed hard.“Father! What’s wrong with you?” His voice wavered, thick with disbelief.Virelle, his Luna, surged forward, scooping him into her embrace, her voice honeyed with reassurance. “Hush, my pup. Your father is furious at the omega who dared lay a hand on you. He will make her pay.”The gathered wolves murmured in agreement, their whispers a low, expectant growl.“Look at Alpha Bastian—his face is ashen with rage.”“Of course! An Alpha may take a Chosen Mate for strategic reasons, but he would never tole
The first time I met Alpha Bastian was at my own pack's territory.At the time, I was working as an intern, starting from the bottom to gain experience in the pack’s administration. Of course, no one knew my true identity. To the outside world, I was just another low-ranking Omega intern trying to find my place.Alpha Bastian was also an intern, joining at the same time as me. Unlike me, he wasn’t hiding anything—he was just an ordinary Omega, a little rough around the edges, and not particularly bright.Coming from a rural background, he had endured hardships, which shaped his strong work ethic. He was the most diligent intern, tirelessly focused on his tasks. No matter when I looked, he was always hunched over his computer, immersed in his work. His perseverance intrigued me.He was at risk of being let go due to slow progress, but with my secret assistance, he was promoted ahead of schedule to Beta. That day, he was overjoyed, his entire being radiating excitement and pride.After s
The sudden disturbance rippled through the pack, sending a wave of tension through the air.The once lively gathering stilled, a heavy silence falling over everyone, as if they were all holding their breath.The wolves who had been restraining me loosened their grip, standing upright, their attention drawn to the approaching scene.Virelle pulled her foot back, her eyes fixed on the convoy of sleek black SUVs adorned with the Alpha's insignia.I quickly rose to my feet, stepping in front of my daughter, my heart thudding fiercely in my chest.Under the watchful eyes of the pack, a man in a sharp black suit moved forward, his actions respectful as he opened the door to the lead vehicle.Out of the SUV emerged Alpha Bastian, dressed in an impeccably tailored suit that seemed to echo his formidable Alpha presence. His power surged in the air, sending an electric jolt through the crowd.His chiseled features, coupled with an undeniable air of dominance, demanded immediate attention, and th
The moment Virelle spoke, a wave of applause and cheers erupted from the gathered parents.“That’s why you’re Luna! You deal with everything so decisively and fairly!”“Exactly, this is a prestigious Pack. Not just anyone can belong here.”“Why would an Omega’s daughter need schooling? You should be teaching her how to seduce Alphas, like you did. Maybe she’ll even outdo you and find a more powerful mate!”Virelle’s audacity grew even bolder.“See that? This is what happens when you’re an Omega rogue. You and your daughter will always be at the bottom of the Pack, despised by everyone!”The crowd’s jeers and insults rained down on me. The more they spat their venom, the broader Virelle’s smile grew.The teacher, a timid Beta, saw an opportunity to flatter her. “Mrs. Blake, the Alpha mentioned that if you’re pleased with how things have been handled, he hopes you could do us a favor.”“You know we’re planning to expand the Pack’s territory, and all the land around here is owned by Serro
The sharp slap left me dazed, a sudden shock coursing through me.The pack members gathered around, their laughter cutting through the air as they pointed and jeered.“You don’t look like much, so why are you stooping to be with a rogue? And having a pup, too?”“Some wolves act so innocent, but the second they see a strong Alpha, they’re desperate to submit and be claimed!”“Rogues are a disgrace to the pack, and their pups are even worse!”The insults piled up, drawing more onlookers who began to point and laugh. A few even pulled out their phones to take videos, adding fuel to the fire. Some spat in my direction, their contempt thick in the air.Fury bubbled within me as I ripped off my custom-made Luna cloak and tossed it aside, the fabric crumpling into the trash. Turning to face Virelle, I spoke with cold precision.“You had your son bully my daughter, and now you slap me in front of everyone. Who do you think you are to act like this with no consequence?”Virelle’s response was d
My five-year-old pup staggered into the house, her small body quivering as she fell to her knees in front of me. Her arms wrapped around my leg, desperate, as she whispered with trembling lips, "I never want to go back. Please, don't make me go." I knelt to her level, gently cupping her tear-streaked face. "What’s wrong, sweetheart? What happened at daycare?"Her golden eyes shimmered with unshed tears, but she didn’t speak, shaking her head in fear. Instincts flaring, I carefully lifted the hem of her shirt—and my heart clenched at what I saw. Her soft skin was marred with deep gouges from claws, bruises blooming around the wounds. My wolf snarled within me, a growl rising in my throat. I snapped a quick photo, sending it through the pack’s communication link with a fury that could not be contained: [Who did this?!]The response came within seconds. [I told my son to do it!] The name that followed was Virelle.I growled louder, two more images appearing in quick succession. The fi
