บททั้งหมดของ HIDDEN HOWL: บทที่ 1 - บทที่ 10

TRINITYI folded the last of my clothes into the suitcase, zipping it shut with a sigh. My fingers traced the faded fabric of my old pack hoodie, a strange mix of dread and nostalgia stirring within me. You’re just going for a few days, I reminded myself, rolling my shoulders back as if I could physically shake off the nerves. In, out, and back to your life.I dragged the suitcase to the door, taking one last look around my small apartment. It wasn’t much—just four plain walls, minimal furniture, a little balcony overlooking a busy street—but it was mine. Here, I didn’t have to constantly look over my shoulder or hear the whispers of people who saw me as “Trinity the Wolf-less.”Grabbing my keys, I slipped out, tossed my luggage into the trunk, and slid behind the wheel. The streets were quiet, my headlights casting long beams across the darkened road as I set out toward home. A low, creeping sense of unease wound its way through me as I drove, the weight of the past creeping in with

TRINITY My legs burned as I sprinted out of the grand hall, my heartbeat pounding louder than the drums that had echoed through the ceremony moments before. My breaths came in sharp, panicked gasps, and I dared not look back. I hadn’t seen anyone else run; it felt like the entire hall had been watching me bolt as though I were on fire. But I couldn’t stay—not with the glaring eyes of the Alphas and the strange pull that had flooded the air, that haunting scent of something I couldn’t place and didn’t want to understand. My very first day home, and here I was, tangled in something I knew would bring trouble. Always trouble. A branch whipped against my arm, scratching the skin as I pushed through the dense forest surrounding the territory. I barely felt it, the sting dwarfed by the terror snaking its way through my body. I didn’t know where I was running, only that I had to get as far away as possible. I couldn’t shake the feeling that I was being hunted, and in the eerie silence of t

NASIRPathetic.How could the moon goddess punish me this way? How could she give me a mate as weak and pathetic as this one?I paced through the forest; Ren’s paws pounded against the damp earth. The moon above, once a symbol of guidance, now taunted me with its serene glow. My heart seethed with anger, my mind racing with the injustice.Why had the moon goddess chosen a human as my mate? A fragile, vulnerable creature unsuited for the demands of our world. I, Nasir, one of the future alphas of the Crimson Moon pack, required strength and resilience by my side. Not some delicate, breakable thing.I could not stay back at the palace. I had to get some fresh air. I had to get my mind off this rather heart-wrenching discovery. And there were very few things capable of doing that: hunting.As I ran, the wind whipped through Ren’s fur, carrying the scents of the forest. He was not happy to be getting so far away from our mate; he wanted to be around her, he wanted to play with her, watch

TRINITYI lie in bed, staring at the ceiling, heart pounding in my chest. The house is quiet now—too quiet. My aunt and cousins are probably settled in their rooms by now, and I can hear the soft murmur of their voices, the occasional giggle. They’re drifting off to sleep, and with each passing moment, the tension in my chest builds. This is it. Tonight’s the night.Tonight is the night I get out of this hellhole. I am not going to just sit here and wait to get rejected or killed.So, I wait. I have to be sure. Every muscle in my body is coiled tight, ready to spring, but I need the silence. The stillness. I need them to be asleep before I make my move. Finally, the house is silent. No more voices, no more laughter. I wait for a few seconds, holding my breath, and when I’m certain they’re asleep, I slip out from under the covers. My feet barely make a sound on the cold floor. My heart hammers in my chest, too loud, too fast, but I don’t let it stop me. I can’t stop. Not now. I move

LIAMI walked beside Selene, the soft crunch of gravel beneath our feet the only sound in the otherwise peaceful palace garden. It was a rare moment of quiet, just the two of us, surrounded by fragrant flowers and the distant hum of the palace. The sun was lower now, casting a soft orange glow on everything, making the world feel warmer, as if trying to make up for the coldness I could feel creeping in from within.One would consider this a romantic setting, and it would have been. Had she been my mate.Or someone I was actually attracted to.Selene’s presence was always uncomfortable in a way. "You’ve been distant lately, Liam," she said, her voice light, but there was a sharpness in it that made my stomach tighten.I glanced at her, trying to keep my expression neutral. “I’ve been busy,” I muttered, not entirely convinced by my own words. Truth be told, I hadn’t been entirely focused on my duties in the past few days. My thoughts kept drifting to the tension between Trinity and me
