The pack members gathered outside the square, there was tension in the air, my heart pounded in my chest matching the echoing howls that surrounded us. A knot tightened in my stomach as everyone's gaze fell on Magnus. The accused stood at the center. His black hair fell over his face, covering most of his features, his gray eyes that always glistened now looked dull by the weight of accusation.Magnus was accused of treason against the Alpha, the very leader we were bound to obey. Such crimes were unforgivable. I stood in uncertainty observing silently what judgment would be passed. My heart ached for him. I knew he was innocent, but my words held no strength as I couldn't prove his innocence. The judgment came, Alpha Lucas, a commanding figure with an aura of authority, stepped forward. I braced myself for the sentence that would seal Magnus' destiny. The Alpha, his voice a low growl, declared "Magnus Kade, accused of treason against the Alpha, by the sacred laws of our kind, you a

Taken aback, I stepped away, meeting the gaze of the young man lounging on a tree branch above. His intense stare sent shivers down my spine, and I realized I still didn't know his name."Do you live in the woods?" I questioned, my voice carrying a mix of curiosity and a hint of exasperation."I own a condo in the city with a breathtaking view. But I had a feeling we'd cross paths again," he responded, descending from the tree with a feline grace."I'm Magnus Kade," he introduced himself, extending his hand. "Audrey Smith," I replied, accepting his hand.Standing in front of me, his tall figure cast a shadow, evoking a mixture of emotions—fear, longing, and intense curiosity.I looked up at him with nervousness. "What brought you here the other day?""Avoiding fate," he responded, leaning against a tree and observing me. "It becomes exhausting trying to force my own happiness. And you?"I paused, trying to find the right words. "I usually come here for some quiet time," I said defen

Days went by, filled with the dull routine of being alone and the constant replay of my own thoughts. One morning, I walked into the gardens, hoping to find comfort among the greenery. Out of nowhere, a voice broke the silence, catching me off guard."Hey, Audrey, right?" he said, smiling at me."Yeah, that's me," I replied, turning around to see Jaxon, Magnus' ally, the Alpha of the Blue Moon Pack."How are you holding up?" he asked, looking concerned."It's been tough, you know? But hey, I'm surviving," I said, trying to keep things light with a small smile."Surviving is a good start. I'm Jaxon, by the way," he introduced himself in a friendly way."Nice to meet you, Jaxon," I replied, feeling a mix of curiosity and caution."Umm, where are you headed?" he asked, still looking concerned."Nowhere in particular, just taking a walk," I said, glancing around."Is it okay if I join you?" he asked politely. I shrugged, trying to seem indifferent, and said, "Sure."As we walked, Jaxon's

CHAPTER SEVEN.MAGNUS' POVHis question caught me off guard. Why does he want to know about Audrey? I hope for his sake he wasn't getting any idea about Audrey. She was mine!“Why do you ask?“ I said in a hard tone.“Nothing.“ He tried to cover his curiosity with nonchalance, but I knew better. “I just want to know why you made her your mistress while you still sneak around with other girls."“What I do in my free time is none of your business.“ I set him straight. “We have an alliance. As long as I'm not doing anything to jeopardize our alliance, you'll keep away from what's mine. Audrey is none of your business.““Chill out, man!“ He laughed and flopped down on a seat. “It was a harmless question. I have a little sister, you know? She reminds me of my sister, that's all.““Hmm.“ I gave him no response after that. Audrey was the love of my life, there was no doubt of that. Yes, we were mates, but I'd like to think that we had a connection aside from the mate bond. I would still love

AUDREY'S POV. After the conversation I overheard, I locked myself in my room until I could think of a plan. Another part of me was hoping Magnus would send for me and explain himself, but he didn't.That night, I made a decision. I was going to leave Magnus. I won't ever stop loving him, but I am done being his doormat. I sought out Jaxon. He's the only person that can get me out of this hellhole. He's an Alpha too, so I'm sure he has somewhere I can stay hidden. “Audrey ? What are you doing here?“ He was visibly surprised to see me.“Can I talk to you?““Sure.“ There was no hesitation in his voice. I suspected he had feelings for me but this just confirmed it. He was the only one that actively made an effort to speak to me. “Come in.““I need your help,“ I said bluntly.“Anything. What do you need?““I need to leave this place.“ He went still for a few minutes.“What…what do you mean?““I mean I need your help with running away from this place. You're the only one that has enough r
