The Council's Demand

Chapter 141: The Council's DemandPOV: AsherI walked into the council chamber with a leaden heart.The council chamber was filled to capacity. Elder Marrek had crossed his arms. Elder Maela was examining scrolls. The rest looked up at me with vacant faces, waiting for the meeting to start.I sat at the head of the table. I was Alpha. Today, though, I felt helpless."Alpha Asher," Elder Marrek began as soon as I took my seat, "this week, we have to discuss next week's High Moon Gathering."I nodded intentionally. "I know. That's why I'm here."He hunched forward. "You'll be expected to bring your mate. Both of them."My jaw hardened."You want me to fetch Zarina and Cara?"Marrek did not blink. "Yes. You marked Cara. Either because you were coerced or otherwise, the mark stays."I shook my head. "Zarina is my true mate. I marked Cara because you made me. You informed me that the pack needed her father's alliance. I did not select her.".Older Maela rose. "That is possible, Alpha, but

Hideness

Chapter 142: "You Don't Have to Hide"(Zarina's POV)Moonlight streamed through the window as I tucked the twins into bed. Their little hands clutched their pillows, eyes sliding lazily shut. Peaceful. Innocent. They had no idea what storm was gathering outside these walls. No idea how everything was changing again.I kissed their foreheads, pulled the blanket up, and whispered, "Sleep well, my loves."Then I tiptoed and closed the door.It was late, but Asher had not returned from the meeting yet. I could feel something in the air—a tightness in my chest, like a storm had already passed through. And it was not the weather.I went downstairs and sat in the living room, the silence closing in around me. I lit a candle. Then I blew it out. Then I lit it again. My hands couldn't stay still.Something had happened, I knew.Finally, close to midnight, the door opened.He came in, weary, his shoulders heavy as if he'd been carrying the whole world."Asher?" I said softly.He stood in the do

Even The Strong Gets Tired

Chapter 143: "Even the Strong Get Tired"Zarina's POVThe mornings had been getting harder.I would rise before the sun, shining so bright and strong, to care for my children, face the pack, and hold my head up even when I didn't feel like it. But lately… things were different. My body felt heavier. My head spun when I got up too fast. I was tired—more than tired, actually.But I didn't want to talk. Not yet.Asher already had enough to worry about. The meetings. The elders. Cara. The pressure of being alpha. I didn't want my name to be the addition on the long list of problems.So, I kept going.I smiled through it.I fixed breakfast for the twins and sat with them as they laughed over corny jokes. I kissed the twin's heads and braided my daughter's hair, despite the trembling of my fingers. I read to them at night even when my voice was reed-like. I did everything I could to protect the harmony we had just starting to build.But I knew something was wrong.And so did my body.That m

Questions

Chapter 144 Questions Only a Child Could Ask"Third Pov The soft sunlight streamed through the windows as Zarina sat on the window seat, gently stroking her daughter's hair while her son sat cross-legged on the floor, flipping through his picture book.It was a peaceful morning, for once. Asher had gone out early to conduct a patrol, and Cara was mercifully out of view. Zarina luxuriated in such moments — the calm in the center of the storm, the seconds that served as reminders of why she stayed, struggled, and lived.Her daughter leaned into her, small fingers playing with the edge of her dress. "Mama?" the child whispered."Yes, my love?" Zarina smiled, gently braiding the girl's hair."Are you still sick?"Zarina paused for a moment, taken aback by the question. "I feel better now," she whispered, kissing her daughter's head. "Daddy took care of me."There was a silence."Is that why he didn't go to Cara's room yesterday?" her son asked suddenly, not even looking up from his book.

The Challenge

Chapter 145- The Fire They Lit in Me(Zarina's POV)Whispers carried weight.I'd never known that before… not quite. I'd always thought that words were mere air — until I started to feel them drop like stones in my heart.It began small. A few glances. A few wolves who used to smile at me now took pains to not meet my eyes. A low rumble when I brought the children into training grounds.I thought maybe I was just dreaming.But today… I knew I wasn't.I'd just finished helping my daughter with her reading when one of the warrior she-wolves — she was Malia — passed by with two others. They weren't even trying to hide it."That's her? The outsider they call Luna?""I've heard she's just a weak little human girl that Asher fancied once.""No one ever saw the mating mark. Maybe she doesn't have one."Their laughter fell flat. My daughter looked up at me, confused, and I pressed my lips into a fake smile, pretending not to hear. But deep down… something broke.I didn't go see Asher.He alre

The Discussion

Chapter 146- The DiscussionZarina's POVThe house was too quiet that morning. I stood by the window, watching the dawn light slowly spread across the sky. The garden below appeared peaceful, almost inviolate, as if the pack wasn't about to go through a storm. But in just two days, they would. The Luna challenge.My name would be called. I would be made to fight in front of all the wolves who still doubted me, wolves who wanted Cara to win, and those who didn't know what to think. But I wasn't fighting to prove myself to any of them.I was fighting for myself.And for my children.For my mate."Zarina," Asher's voice was behind me, low but tinged with something I had not heard in a long time — fear.I turned. He was there shirtless, with a towel around his neck from the morning run he never finished. His dark hair was still damp, and his eyes were fatigued, as if he had not slept."Can we talk?" he wanted to know.I nodded.He stepped closer to me and took my hands in his. "I don't

The Gate

Chapter 165: The Past at the GateZarina's POVI'd just finished a reading with the kids when one of the guards knocked on the door."Luna Zarina," he said, scowling. "Alpha Asher needs to see you at the border… Alpha Kael is waiting. He asked to speak with you."My heart ceased beating.Kael.The name broke over me like a wave I wasn't ready for.I stood there, my mind blank for a second. Kael? All these years later? After I'd turned him down when I'd given him everything?I blinked. "I'll be there," I said calmly, though my hands had begun to tremble.Asher met me at the periphery of the pack. He was bristling. I could feel the tension radiating from him, even before he spoke. "I don't like it," he growled. "He has no business showing up here. You don't need to see him.""I'm okay," I replied gently, placing a hand on his arm. "I want to see him."His jaw muscle flexed. "He rejected you. He doesn't deserve one minute of your time.""I'm not going to give him anything," I panted. "Bu

Until The Challenge Ends

Chapter 148: Until the Challenge Ends(Asher's POV)The air in the pack council chamber still hummed, hours after the meeting had ended. I had not gone back to the pack house yet. I sat alone in my office, looking at nothing, my mind everywhere. Papers went unattended on my desk. Reports blurred before my eyes. The meeting had stirred something dangerous—and not just among the elders. It was starting.The very thing I had feared.Cara had stayed too long. And now her presence had become known to her father.My Gamma, Elias, knocked and came in. "Alpha," he said quietly. "There's. something you need to see."I looked up sharply. Elias was never flustered, but now he held out a sealed letter in a trembling hand."What is it?" I asked already rising.It was delivered by courier line. It's from Alpha Lennox… Cara's father."I froze.Cara had done it. She'd called her father.I grabbed the letter, tore it open, and read.\tAlpha Asher,I have been informed that my daughter, whom you mate

No More Secret

Chapter 149e: "No More Secrets"Zarina’s POVI was sitting by the window in our bedroom, gazing at the trees swaying gently under the early morning sunlight. Everything was quiet except for the singing of birds and the slow tick-tock of the wall clock. But my heart… my heart wasn't quiet. It throbbed hard in my chest, carrying thoughts that I couldn't shake off.Asher had said barely a word since the meeting. I could tell that something had happened—something deeper than politics or pack business. I could feel it in the way he moved, slower than usual, quieter. As though something within him was pulling him inward.I did not need to turn when the door opened to know that it was he."Asher," I said softly.He didn't respond right away. He stood in the doorway for a few seconds, then entered, closing the door behind him with a soft click."I have to tell you something," he said, his voice low and heavy.I turned, facing him. He looked tired. His eyes had that distant look, the one he g

The

Chapter 159-The Storm Before the Crown(Asher's POV)Morning was like any other. Birds chirped outside the windows, wind blew through trees, and my warriors were practicing in the courtyard early. I normally loved watching them in the morning. It relaxed me… brought things into perspective regarding why I fought so hard to protect this pack.Today, however, I was not able to relax.I remained at the office window, arms crossed, watching her move. Zarina was among the group, sparring with the others. She was dressed in her training gear—skin-tight black pants and dark top—and she moved through the air with precision and strength. Each strike, each block, each movement she made was perfect.She wasn't just good—she was powerful.She did not fight like one who had been a warrior. She fought like one who still was a warrior.It made me proud. It made me scared.I felt it coming. Something huge.And it did.A guard knocked at my door, voice strained. "Alpha Asher. Alpha Lennox is here. He'
