Katherine was sitting in her room, looking through the window. She was watching Sammie walking around the packhouse. It has been three days since they saved the girl from her abandoned pack. It was also two days since Greg marked her and mated with her. It was a magical night, and Katherine was still on cloud nine. The next day, she officially introduced her mate to the whole pack. She was petrified to do it, but her members were very compassionate. All of them seemed to be genuinely happy for their Alpha. Probably, King Marcus being a part of an alliance helped as well. One way or another, Katherine could finally enjoy being mated again. And her wolf was not agitated anymore. Having her mate close was calming her and making her happy. Lucy deserved to be loved just like Katherine. Now Alpha was focused on the girl they saved. There was no doubt Sammie went through a colossal drama. She did not talk much and preferred to stay alone, even if other pups tried to approach her occasiona

King Marcus looked at his son sitting before him. - I am proud of you, son. You found yourself an acceptable bride. I am sure the two of you will do great things together. - Thank you, Father. I can't stop thanking the gods for mating me with Katherine. She is a loving, caring person. She will be an extraordinary leader for both our kinds. - Greg replied with a soft smile. Whenever he thought about her, his heart melted. Katherine was unique to him from the day they met. She did not hesitate to save the vampire's life, even if that could endanger her. His bride always put others' needs before hers. - I would like to invite Katherine to introduce her officially to the members of the coven.- King interrupted his thoughts. - That is a very kind gesture, but are our people ready for this? Many of them are still old-fashioned. - Greg replied carefully. He did not want to admit that it was his mother's reaction he feared the most. The last visit did not end well. Only Katherine's extrao

Sammie looked at Katherine and Greg like an adult could look at two not-very-smart kids. Alpha felt shivers running down her spine. She grabbed Greg's hand to add courage. This little girl in front of her was terrifying. It was hard to believe this girl was a child. Her look was severe, cold, and calculating. - Close your mouth as you may catch the fly. - Sammie said, glancing at Katherine. - How is this possible? - Alpha mumbled to no one in particular. - It must be shocking to a lowly developed creature like you. Witches are born very smart. - The girl chuckled. The next moment, Greg was holding her throat. - You had to be unfortunate then. - Vampire hissed. - I have warned you once, and you disobeyed me. Now, it is a second time. If you insult my mate again, it will end your life. The girl seemed unfazed by his actions when she burst into laughter. - She is your mate? And you call me unfortunate? Mighty vampire prince bonded to a wolf. That is hilarious. - You are walking

In the first moment, the silence was so overwhelming that you could hear a pin drop. Katherine's eyes widened in shock. She glanced at Greg, but he was stunned, just like her. What made her feel better was Camille's facial expression. It was clear she did not expect to see her either. The only person who found it amusing was Xavier. He stood next to the car with a grin on his face as if he had just heard the best joke ever.All of that happened in a split second. Then all of them heard the loud voice of King Marcus. - What the hell is she doing here? - He asked, looking at Camille. - I would instead ask what she is doing here. - His wife was eying Katherine with hatred. ~ Yep, no change in here. ~ Lucy said in Alpha's mind. ~ I would say it is worst than it was. ~ Katherine replied. - Let's get inside; we will discuss it in the office. - King Marcus ordered and turned around. The Queen glanced at them for the last time and followed her husband. -I had no idea about that. - Greg

Megan was boiling with anger. The simple attack that should be a great success turned into a catastrophe. Thirty warriors end up dead, instead of the werewolves. Martha stood next to her leader, trying to avoid her anger. It was hard as she was the one in charge of this mission. They were supposed to throw this victory into Mother's face, showing her how the old methods should be replaced with the new ones. And now they had nothing. - For the last time, I am asking why did you fail? - Megan hissed, looking at her right hand. Everything was planned in the tiniest details. The alpha couple left the pack. There was nothing that should stop them. - They had help from vampires. - Martha replied to what she already said at least five times. - There were ten vampire warriors. And the Alpha couple returned to the pack. Or they never left. Our spies informed us they had entered the vampire's lands. Yet somehow, they were back soon after the fight started. - It means that your spies are wor
