Aarhea’s Point of ViewAnother long day.Another set of obligations pulling me away from Crimson. That was the curse of being Alpha, everyone wanted a piece of you.I leaned back in the carved oak chair, rubbing my temples.I looked at the envoys, “Tell your Alpha, that Crimson will honor this agreement, but if Blackthorn shorts us again on supplies, there won’t be a second chance.” I said on them.An envoy bowed stiffly. “Of course, Alpha Aarhea. We’re grateful for your generosity.”Generosity?I hissed. I almost laughed.Nothing about this job felt generous.When the room finally cleared and the doors shut, I let out a long breath.“One week,” I muttered. “It’s only been one week since I left the Crimson for my obligations, and I’m already drowning, and I miss Jake!" I smiled planely while imagining Jake's face.A knock rattled the door. Before I could answer, it pushed open, and Ellias, my Beta, slipped inside. His usually calm expression was pale, and his jaw tight.“Alpha Aarhea,

Aarhea's Point of View:The council room smelled of smoke and damp stone. The firepit in the center burned low, shadows flickering against the carved walls. I stood at the head of the table, Ellias beside me, while the elders filled the benches one by one.Elder Corin sat nearest the fire, his expression hard and unreadable. He didn’t even wait for the last elder to settle before he spoke.“The Crimson is collapsing,” he said. “Our members are weak and dying. The people demand answers to this situation. They demand leadership. What will you give them, Alpha Aarhea?”I gripped the edge of the table. “I will give them the truth. This sickness is not natural—it’s an attack. Roman, Logan, and Amara are behind it! And I will seek the cure for this!”A murmur ran through the room. Some elders frowned, and others looked away.“Do you have proof?” one of the elders asked.“I have testimony,” I said firmly. “A witness saw Roman at the east gate as wolves fell sick. Smiling. Watching. That’s pr

Aarhea’s Point of View"Alpha Aarhea, Alpha Draven is approaching!" One of the waeriors informed me.I looked at Ellias.Ellias kept pace beside me, his jaw tight, hand resting on the hilt of his blade.“Alpha Aarhea,” he called me low, “we can still turn him away at the gate. No law says we have to let him step foot inside," he suggested.I shook my head, “Turning him away makes us look weak. He’ll twist it against us," I did not agree.Ellias muttered something under his breath, but he didn’t argue further.The gates creaked open, and there he was, Alpha Draven.He rode at the front of a small escort of six men, all dressed in dark leather, their expressions flat and unreadable.Alpha Draven dismounted with the ease of someone who owned every space he entered.The sight of him was like a punch to the gut. Tall, broad-shouldered, his black coat dusted with road dirt yet still carrying the weight of authority.His eyes swept over Crimson, taking in the sick, the crumbling strength, th

Aarhea’s Point of ViewThe infirmary was too quiet, the kind of quiet that carried fear in every breath.I stood by the cot where Lena lay, her skin was pale, lips dry, and chest rattling with every inhale. She looked small and fragile.I could not help myself to pity her while looking at her steuggle. I knew this sickness made him weak, and I could see the members of the Pack What they facing.Ellias stood behind me, and his arms crossed tight. “Are you sure about this, Alpha Aarhea?” he asked, while looking at me.I nodded once. “She asked me herself. She said she’d rather take the chance on me than wait for her death without doing anything.” I replied.Lena’s weak smile flickered. “Alpha Aarhea… I trust you. I don’t care if it kills me. At least it’s you trying to find cure this this illness kor the pack!!”My throat tightened. I squeezed her hand whole.looking at her eyea, “Thank you, Lena. You won’t regret it. I will make sure that you will going to feel comfortable.”The head he

Aarhea's Point of View:The smell of ash still hung over the Pack. All the warriors worked silently.They were repairing walls, replacing the burnt fencing, and pretending everything was fine. I knew better. Someone inside my pack had opened the door for the attack.Ellias dropped a folder on my desk. “I talked to every patrol leader. No outsiders slipped through. Whoever passed information did it from here, inside headquarters.” he informed me. I nodded and read the folder. I looked at him. “Which means they sat in the council room with me.”He nodded once, “There is a big possibilities, Alpha Aarhea!” he agreed."Because of that, we need to move, Ellias!" For two days we questioned quietly. no public accusations and no shouting. We investigated and asked the healers, the warriors and even the mbers of the pack. Most looked terrified, not guilty.On the third night, Ellias came in with his jaw set tight.“I found something!"I pooked at him seriosly. I know Ellias was an effectib
