1: Gold Invite

PHOENIXI stare at the piece gold paper in disbelief, multiple voices in my head telling me what would be the best thing to do. One says to burn it and pretend I never saw it, the other, the more compelling one said to just open it and get it over with. I went with the latter, my curiosity being my worst trait.I break the seal and pull the paper out, reading the letter with my heart in my throat.‘Dear Miss Phoenix Alaric, you are receiving this letter because you have been chosen to be one of the contenders at the Fifteenth Fated Banquet event.Congratulations for being one of the lucky she-wolves deemed worthy to be invited to the most important occasion of the decade, THE FATED BANQUET. As one of the members of the Wolf Community who’s Eighteenth birth anniversary falls on this special month, you are expected to attend, and under no circumstances shall you sit out on this.You are to arrive with this invitation at your Wolf Community Town Hall, no later than 12 noon, tomorrow. A b

2: Betrayal

PHOENIX“Will you tell her or should I?” Lila says with a fake innocent tone. I turn to Jake expectantly and he swallows. I shake my head, not wanting to believe what I am seeing.Not Jake and Lila. My best friend. No, it can’t be. “Phoenix, you know I have needs.” Jake mutters, looking anywhere but my face. I stare at him, trying to see if he is joking but he isn’t.I laugh out loud like a maniac. Trying to convince myself he didn’t just say that of all things. I would much rather believe I’m losing my mind than to find out Jake is cheating on me with Mila, of all people, he picks my best friend.“What do you mean you have needs?” my voice is exuding a calmness I don’t feel.I’d refused to give him my virginity before we got married. We would have before we went to college, as the future alpha of the pack he is expected to find a mate and produce an heir. We have our whole life planned, it seems like I was the only one locked in my fantasy.“Why do you look so dumbfounded? Come on,

3: Little Mission

EZRAHands that have been warm all my life feel cold against my face, my heart shutters as my mother’s hand slips off my face, falling to her side.The whole world stands at a standstill, or just my world. I can’t hear anything but the entirely too loud sound of my heart breaking in my chest. I have lost the woman I love more than anything and everyone. I have lost my mother.A shuddering breath makes it past my lips and I close my eyes, feeling the burn of tears trying to make it past. I don’t let them fall, the voice of my stewardess coming to my mind, even at a time like this, the words I’ve been hearing since the day I was born stop me from mourning my own mother.“Wipe your tears, prince Ezra. You are to be a king and kings do not cry.” I hate Mrs. Penelope. I hate that even at this time I still hear her voice and more than that, I hate that it stops the tears.I get off the side of the bed, looking down at my mother’s once lively face. She looks nothing short of beautiful, and

4: Ex-friends

PHOENIX‘Phoenix, where are you?’ I’m a block away from the wolf community when I hear my mum’s gentle voice in my head. It makes tears spring to my eyes but I try to keep the emotions at bay, knowing she can feel them if she is mindlinking.‘I went out with a few friends. I’ll be back later,’ my tongue feels bitter as I lie.‘Oh, alright. Have fun dear and please come back before dinner.’ I hum as a reply, not having the gall to lie to her again out loud. She cuts off our mindlink the same time I reach the building of the wolf community.There is a very long bus waiting already with a Wolf House logo on it. I suck in a sharp breath and go straight to the back of the bus. I don’t stop until I get to the last seat, not wanting to drag attention to myself.I look out the window, where a few parents are standing with their beloved daughters. Some are crying while others try to seem strong and not break down, mostly the fathers. My heart burns and the tears I’ve been trying to hold back h

5: Tests

PHOENIX I’m shivering like a leaf in winter by the time I get to the door that has the same number as the keypad I was give. My teeth are chattering badly. I unwrap my arms from around me and with shaky fingers, I unlock the door and push it open. A dark haired girl is sitting on the bed when I stumble into the room. She screams in horror before regaining control and moving back, like she wanted to shield herself from me. I only muster a small smile and enter the room, closing the door behind me. She is still watching me cautiously as I rest my back on the closed door, breathing heavily. Her long dark hair forms a veil around her face as she watches me from beneath her lashes. I read her nametag and nodded to myself. Jenny Green of Nightlight pack. The name is familiar to me, they are a small pack, one of the smallest in the country. Much smaller than ours. No wonder she is reserved. I offer her a smile, hoping she would see that I am harmless. “Hi, I’m Phoenix.” She eyes me wari

6: Scores

PHOENIXThe next morning, I wake up with a feeling of crippling anxiety. The breakup with Jake and Lila’s betrayal feels like nothing, the only thing that is running through my mind is what the scores would be, what the future has in store for me.My only hope right now is for my score to reach even if it’s six. That is the pass mark which would help me not end up being a breeder. I’ve never wanted to go to the palace so my prayer is to get at least six, so I can be taken by hopefully a nice man. It wouldn’t be easy and it almost seems like wishful thinking but it is my only hope and I don’t want to lose it.Jenny and I dressed in silence, both of us lost in our thoughts, knowing in just a few minutes, our lives are going to change, it would either be a good change or a bad one. One thing is certain, and that is there is nothing we can do about it.We all gather in the square like yesterday. The entire hall is quiet as a graveyard, everyone standing with bated breaths, waiting for the

7: Unfair Treatment

EZRAI drove down to a small apartment on our way there where we changed into simple clothes. He doesn’t ask why the change until we’re back in the car and I give him one answer.“We need to blend in.” I don’t know when the date of the cursed event will be but I know I have to get there before they send the girls off to the breeding houses. The date wasn’t written on the letter but it should be very soon, since they’ll bring the winner or whatever to the palace.The car is filled with plans on how we are getting in there without any invite and since we’re hiding our identity, there won’t be any special favors. I tell him we’ll figure it out and it is the least of our problems.When the looming building comes into view, my body stiffens and my wolf shifts, seeming restless for some weird reason. Nate notices.“Are you okay man?” he asks as we exit the car. We parked a few blocks away from the building to avoid bringing attention to ourselves.“Yes,” I clear my throat and motion for him

8: Abolishing The Banquet

EZRAThe chatter dies down after I say those words but seconds later, a full-blown argument breaks out in the large hall. Some are screaming yes, it is a disgusting tradition while others disagree.It’s a good thing this isn’t a public debate and it is not like I’m asking for their input. I’m going to do what I set out to do and they can’t stop me.“This is an age-old tradition. You as the prince have no right to end it just like that.” a man’s loud voice speaks from the high floors. They aren’t visible to the girls but I felt their eyes the moment I stepped into the hall.I wish I could see their faces, just so I can mark it and deal with them after.“Only the lycan king has the right to give that order.” I hold back a scoff. Well, my father isn’t going to be king for very long. They seem to keep forgetting that.I don’t bother with a response, I feel Nate shift from behind me. He hates this as much as I do.“If we allow them freedom and give them the reins to choose whatever they wa

9: I'm Not Your Mate

PHOENIX My eyes snap open and I’m almost blinded by how bright the place is. I blink a few times to get used to the light and when I stop feeling like my head is going to be torn open. I turn to my left, my brows creasing when I see the unfamiliar room. It is not my room back at home, but I know I’m not at home. I’m at the Wolf House, and this doesn’t look like my dorm. I try to search through my memories for what must have happened.I remember Jenny, she was crying, she was about to be hit but I tried to cover her as much as I could with my body. I wince through that part. At least the pain I’m feeling everywhere has an explanation. Black shoes. Yes! I remember black shoes, a sweet scent before everything went black. There is no one in the room with me and it makes me more scared. Where is the man that saved me? Why did he have such a nice scent? Why do I want to see him again? My rounds of questions get interrupted by the door being opened and a tall man walks in. I’m immediatel

10: I Don't Want To Stay here

PHOENIX Prince Zanders throws his head back and laughs. “God, if you’re going to just claim your girls, do it. You don’t have to make stories about them being your mate.” he says, mockingly. The hands of the man behind me tighten around my waist. The tension around us is so thick that you can cut it with a knife. It feels like forever before the man lets me go and I take a step away from, then I turn to look at him purely out of curiosity. My breath catches in my throat when I see his face. His hair is dark, not as long as Zanders but longer than Nate’s, his eyes are a glowing amber and I don’t think I’ve ever seen eyes look that good. He is much taller too, towering over me completely. “Sweetheart, you can find me whenever you get bored, I’ll be waiting.” Zanders winks again then turns and walks off. The tension disappears as he does too. I look between where he disappeared and where the other man that I still don’t know the name of stands. Now that I’m much calmer, I recognize h
