Yewa’s P.O.V

The morning of the rites should have felt like a beautiful dream come true, but instead, it felt like a weight pressing on my chest.

I was happy that I was marrying or rather, becoming his but as hands fluttered around me, tightening fabric, braiding my hair, dusting my skin with powders and herbs. Women I barely knew leaned in with smiles that didn’t reach their eyes, whispering things to each other I couldn’t quite catch.

My reflection stared back at me in a polished bronze mirror propped against the wall, but it hardly looked like me.

It looked like some goddess they were creating for show, for the tribe, for Eric, and I couldn’t stop the questions spinning in my mind.

These were the same people who had once snarled at me when I walked past.

The same people who had whispered outsider under their breath, who had glared as though I was stealing something that belonged to them.

For weeks, I had felt like prey in their midst, tolerated only because the General demanded

    Yewa's P.O.V Today was the big day and as soon as I woke up, my whole body trimmed with the thought that I was finally getting together with himIt was the day of the final rites.After today, I was his and he was mine.The same me that swore to never engage in matters of the heart after mine was shattered to the fire.From the second I woke up, my whole body hummed with happiness and power. It was like my mind, my wolf, my body and my soul was awake for this.“Skylar!” I warned out loud as her joy and pacing around was making me lose focus and memory of all the things I was told by Dahlia to prepare me for my big day but she wasn't listening.The wolf was totally gone in love, and honestly I couldn't blame her.Most wolves are with their partners from age eighteen.The day passed in a flash and before I knew it, it was almost time.The evening air was cool and fragrant, touched with the sweetness of pine and the faint scent of the ceremonial incense that floated through the Tiger tr

    Yewa's P.O.V I immediately melted as he cupped my cheeks, his thumb brushing lightly across my lips, I could barely stand the storm he stirred inside me.'Caution yourself woman!' I yelled to myself as I steadied my breathing“I still don’t understand how you do this to me.” He murmured, voice low, eyes tracing my face as if he could memorize every line. “I’ve led warriors into battles that lasted for days. I’ve faced beasts that would crush men with a swipe. Yet, one look from you, and I’m undone.” He sais like he didn't just say similar words some minutes ago.I wasn't complaining though. Who doesn't want to hear the man they love tell them just how much he wants them every second.Love.I wanted to say that I was so sure that I was in love with him but I wasn't so sure yet.I liked him, he's.I was attracted to him, yes.He was perfect and I was willing to spend the rest of my life with him as I knew I could not get it any better than this.But could I say it out loud that I lov

    Yewa's P.O.V Inside, my heartbeat was the loudest sound I could hear.Eric stood a few feet away with his back half-turned to me, the orange-and-gold reflection of the flames painting his tanned skin like the stripes of the beast that lived within him. His broad shoulders were tense, his breathing heavier than usual. Still steady, controlled, but tight. Too tight.Something about tonight felt different. The air was charged, thick with something unsaid, something primal.When he turned, his eyes were as golden and deep as molten amber, and immediately they found mine, I forgot to breathe.There was no mistaking the hunger there, no mistaking the way his pupils dilated as they locked onto me. He wasn’t even trying to hide it anymore. The air between us pulsed like invisible cords stretching and trembling, about to snap under the weight of the tension that had been building between us since I’d said yes.“You’ve been quiet all evening.” I swallowed hard and forced my voice out, ner

    Yewa’s P.O.V“You think I traded something for you.” He said flatly. “How else do you explain it? They hated me, Eric. They wanted me gone. And now, overnight, they act like I’m theirs. What did you do?”I asked, folding my arms, my heart hammering.For a moment, he just stared at me which further added to my anxiety of how wondering how he felt about what I said. Then, to my shock, he laughed, a sharp, incredulous sound. “Spirits, Yewa, you think so little of me?” He asked, still smiling with adoration in his eyes.“I think enough of you to know you’d sacrifice for me without blinking.” I bristled.He stepped closer, his eyes burning now, not with anger but with something deeper. “I didn’t trade anything for them to accept you. I commanded it.”I blinked. “What?”“I am the Grand General.” He said quietly but firmly, as if reminding me that he was not just Eric.“They don’t give me terms. They don’t bargain with me. I told them who you are. I told them you were mine and made sure th

    Yewa’s P.O.VThe rites were a blur of sound, color, and movement, yet every detail seemed sharpened in my mind. The drumbeats thrummed through the earth, rattling up my legs until I could feel the rhythm in my chest. Fires roared to life around the sacred circle, flames dancing against the twilight sky. The air smelled of smoke, herbs, and wildflowers, some sweet, some bitter.People lined the perimeter, warriors and elders alike, their faces turned toward me. Some looked on with genuine curiosity. Others, with thinly veiled disdain, and others still wore expressions so practiced that I couldn’t tell if they were real or false.I stood at the center with Eric’s hand wrapped firmly around mine. His grip was warm, steady, and strong. The sight of him, broad shoulders, ceremonial armor shining in the firelight, eyes bright with purpose, should have reassured me.Instead, my heart pounded harder.I forced my eyes to the ground, to the pattern etched there in powdered herbs and symbol
