Alpha Apollo’s POV "How can you call yourself an alpha if you can't solve the problem of your pack? Where have you been? Let me guess, you've been out drinking and smoking again?" My father reprimanded me as Seth and I walked into the packhouse. Another day, another round of conversations with seers from other packs, trying to make sense of the nonsense our own pack's seer had been spouting."I don't have time for this, father. I've been out searching for a solution to the drought," I replied, coming face to face with my father. "You're no longer the alpha of the pack. Let me take care of the people for a change and keep your nose out of my business." My tone was cold as I brushed past him, ascending the stairs with Seth silently following.As we reached the upper landing, we spotted Amelia standing there, holding a tray of drinks. "Who are those drinks for?" I inquired hastily. She stole a glance at my father before answering, "They're for the pack leaders. They're in the throne roo

Zelda’s POVI couldn't contain my sheer joy as I gazed down at my little son, his tiny hand grasping my finger while he nursed peacefully on the bed. The soft glow of the room cast a gentle light on his cute face, and it filled my heart with an overwhelming sense of love. This was the moment I had been longing for, and the fact that Alpha Ryder had gone to such lengths, even taking lives, just so I could be here with my son, was almost surreal.August's beautiful blue eyes slowly fluttered closed, and I carefully adjusted his diapers before laying him down, his small body nestled against the sheets. Settling beside him, I gently placed my hand on his back, patting him soothingly as he slipped into slumber. Fatigue washed over me, and before I knew it, I succumbed to sleep alongside my precious bundle.A sudden jolt roused me from my peaceful slumber, and as I opened my eyes, I felt a sharp pain and a presence looming over the bed. My gaze fixed upon a small brown wolf standing over me

Alpha Apollo’s POVOne week later,One week had passed since Ryder severed all ties with me because of Zelda. I couldn't comprehend the spell she had cast on him, but its effects weighed heavily on me. Frustration simmered within as I swung open the kitchen fridge, drawing the attention of the pack chefs. I grabbed the last bottle of water and downed it in one go, sighing with relief."Alpha, you're not supposed to..." one of the chefs began but trailed off, averting their gaze. Water had become a precious commodity in our pack, the drought taking its toll, and Ryder had refused to provide us with any. Determined to make a statement, I deliberately left a drop of water in the bottle before slamming it down on the kitchen counter.Bare-chested, my robe flying behind me, I returned to my office where Seth was buried in paperwork behind the desk. Leaning against the door, I folded my arms across my chest and focused my gaze on him."Any progress?" I asked, my tone demanding. Seth looked

Alpha Apollo’s POV I was abruptly pulled from my slumber by Amelia's urgent voice and the sensation of my pillow being yanked away. With a groan, I reluctantly opened my eyes, squinting in the dim morning light. Amelia's distressed face came into focus, and I couldn't help but feel annoyed by her presence in my room. "What the hell? Why are you in my room?" I grumbled, sitting up and tossing the sheets off my body. I slipped on my nearby flip-flops, ready to face whatever had disrupted my sleep. "You can scold me later, but right now, my father is at the bar and wants to talk to you," Amelia explained, her voice filled with urgency. "The bar? Wasn't he supposed to come two days ago? Why didn't he show up then?" I growled, the inconvenience of the situation starting to annoy me further. "Who visits someone's house this early?" I questioned, making my way down the stairs with Amelia trailing behind me. She struggled to keep up, her worried expression never leaving her face. "My fat

Zelda’s POVHazel tossed me onto the scorching sand of the training field, causing me to groan in pain. I struggled to get up, holding my lower back and gritting my teeth. Hazel extended her hand to help me, but I pushed it away and stood up on my own."You were warned that fighting wasn't your thing, but you insisted on it. Now I'll gladly kick your ass," Hazel taunted, assuming a fighting stance. Since Lexa refused to speak to me after the incident, I decided to learn how to fight to protect myself, even without shifting. Alpha Ryder had told me not to do it, but I was secretly learning behind his back. I didn't want to be a damsel in distress anymore.Hazel threw a punch at me, but I managed to dodge it and aimed for her legs. "If you want to fight, you have to rely on physical strength, but I don't think you have any," she taunted once again. Before I could react to her next attack, she punched me hard in the face, causing me to fall to the ground. She started punching my stomach,
