News of Kodiak's upcoming duel quickly spread across the Great Landmark, and people were eager to witness the alpha of the Dark Edge pack fight for his mate and unborn baby. However, within the pack, things were not good. The elders, who would normally never interfere with Kodiak's affairs, were now willing to risk their own lives to convince him to change his mind. The tension in the room was palpable as Kodiak's eyes carefully scanned his surroundings. It was clear that none of the elders were willing to meet his gaze, but he was slightly amused by their attempt. Despite the opposition he faced, Kodiak remained resolute in his determination to fight for what he believed was right.“So what you are saying is that you want me to stop the duel?” He asked them, “Why?”The room was eerily silent as an elderly man cleared his throat and rose from his seat. No one had spoken for what felt like an eternity, and the tension in the air was palpable. The man, Noah, spoke up hesitantly, his vo

The atmosphere in the room was thick with tension, as the entire pack had gathered to witness Giselle's trial. She stood in the center of the room, her hands bound by silver handcuffs, and her eyes fixed on the man who would decide her fate. Despite her disheveled state, Giselle's eyes were filled with hatred as she glared at Kodiak, the alpha, who stood on an elevated platform with the pack elders by his side. As the trial began, Knox's voice boomed, commanding silence before one of the pack elders started questioning the accused. "Let the trail begin!" A female elder stood up from the alpha's side and asked the accused, "Miss LeWren, you have been charged with the crime of colluding with a dark witch and using sorcery on your ex-fiance, Alpha Kodiak. How do you plead?"Giselle remained silent, refusing to utter a single word about the allegations stated against her because she refused to downgrade herself to the likes of these lowly people in front of her. Only a few days ago, she

In the chilly and dimly lit corridor, Kodiak's eyes were fixed on Giselle's face with a harsh expression. His gaze gradually dropped to her stomach, and he remained silent for a few minutes, lost in contemplation. Giselle felt a pang of nervousness, wondering if he believed her or not. Just as she was about to give up hope, Kodiak lifted his hand and questioned her, "Is it true? Are you really pregnant with my child?" "O-Of course, I am!" Giselle's heart swelled with anticipation as she placed her hand on her stomach, attempting to convince him of her words. She silently thanked the moon goddess for allowing her to be with him a few days ago before he left for the Silver Fur pack to meet Anna. Otherwise, he might have never believed her. The room was filled with an eerie silence, broken only by the sound of Kodiak's deep, booming laughter that echoed through the place. When Giselle looked up at him, she was taken aback by the grin at the corner of his lips and the amusement in his ey

Anna gasped at his words, looking at him wide-eyed to see if he was teasing her but the calm expression on his face told her otherwise. Her heart pounded loudly in her chest as her hands loosened around his neck, hanging loosely on his shoulders.“Anna?” Kodiak's eyes furrowed in concern, wondering if he had shocked her but the happiness in her eyes made him relax slightly and wait for her response. “Sure,” Anna finally breathed out, “Let's get married.” She didn't know what had gotten into her to be so reckless, especially since she knew that they were doing something wrong but she didn't care. She realized that she was feeling insecure about their future, especially since his grandmother had now arrived with the intent to separate them. After all they had been through, the only thing she wanted was to feel the security that came with the status of being his wife. She wanted to be bound by him in front of the Moon goddess, with the elements of nature as their witnesses. His determi

Anna woke up the next morning with a blissful smile on her face after recounting last night's events. She stretched her body lazily like a cat before she opened her eyes to see her mate sleeping soundly beside her. She smiled in satisfaction watching his handsome face after buried halfway in a pillow with his eyes closed and his lips parted slightly. The more she saw him, the more her heart swelled with love knowing that he was all hers. She felt excited by the prospect of the future they would have, and she couldn't wait to build a family with him together. She raised her head from his arm and slowly approached him until they were a few inches apart. Her eyes fell on his red thin lips that were within his reach, their breaths intermingling with each other. Anna suddenly leaned to give him a feathery kiss, her lips grazing his own before she pulled back with a flushed face. A hand grabbed her when she wanted to leave, pulling her back to his hard chest. She yelped in shock as she s
