Maera“Congrats Maera, you're carrying the Alpha's pub,” the pack's witch told me. Asta was the witch of our pack. Ulfsang(Wolf Song) was a small pack of shifters that lived on the northern side of the realm. She was called a witch because people believed she could cast spells and turn people into squirrels.But for me, she had been my messiah. For five years after being married to the Alpha, I had been unable to produce an heir. Now fate had smiled down on me. I was pregnant, certain a sacrifice would be made to the goddess. Mostly I wanted to see the look on my Alpha's face. The excitement. I had already imagined it.“Oh Asta, you are a real-life saviour,” I responded. “How can I ever repay you?”“You can start by taking the good news to Alpha Derek,” She replied.“Of course,” I responded, my heart gleaming with joy. I got up and took the little belongings I had brought with me to the witch's hut and left for Derek's chambers.I had found him pacing about in his room. His hair was

Maera I kept running, never looking back. The sounds of howls in the air indicated one thing—I was being chased. I could feel the stitched part under my belly rip open. I had never fully healed, but that did not stop me. I ran until I passed the borders of my pack.It never really occurred to me that I was deep in another wolf's territory. I had only realised that when they howled. I knew one more second would definitely lead to my demise. But where else did I have to go?I crossed from one wolf border to another, skillfully evading being sighted, eating whatever carcasses I had found, trying my best to stay alive. But death seemed like the better option. I shifted back to myself, as being in wolf's form drew too much attention. I kept pacing about looking for where I could lay my head and die in peace. Then it snapped. I had ventured into a wolf trap. The two curved steel jaws slammed into my ankle, tearing my flesh as it pierced through my bone. Every twitch sent a fresh wave of

Maera We entered into another's chamber. Krishna paused. So did I. The room breathed down on my neck an untamed power. But amongst it was a calming presence. Cushioning and gentle. Unlike the Lycan, Korran.It felt like something I could lean on. It felt like protection—a powerful kind. But amidst that deep cinnamon smell laced with a hint of strawberry, something else lingered in it. Metallic. Dark. And filled with secrets. I turned to see Krishna conversing with someone, tall with almost the same posture as Korran. Then it registered on my mind that he produced that raw power and intoxicating scent. He was the second Lycan brother.I quickly took to my knees. For the second time, I had gotten lost in my thoughts. I hated myself at that moment. But a thought registered in my mind.“Were all the Lycans like this—beautiful and strong facial features with a physique meant to kill?”“Why do you kneel?” He said. His voice, deep and masculine, filled with power, but softer on the air and

MaeraThe night was short. I kept having these dreams. Ever since I touched Lord Fenrik’s shoulder, something in me changed. I kept seeing blood. A knife. And Lord Korran is lying on the floor. Then I would wake up just to go back to the same dream. The last one had awakened me to a fully bright day.“Goddess! Am I going crazy,” I said to myself.My head pounded. My throat felt sore. I touched where he had wrapped his hand and wrinkled at the discomfort. Then my door came apart and Krishna walked in. I quickly sprang to my feet. “Morning, Housemistress,” I said, bowing my head.She looked at me like she wanted an explanation for why I was still in bed and undressed to carry out my duties.“Forget about cleaning for today,” Krishna said. “You're needed somewhere else.”I stared at her back like the answers to the questions in my mind were embedded in her face.“Needed somewhere else?” I questioned. “The Lycan Kings are going on a hunt and have demanded you join them,” she replied.

MaeraI ran off back to my room, without thinking about getting the trays from the other Lycans. I shut the doors behind me.“Poisoning?” I said to myself. I was done for. Lady Krishna would certainly have my head once she hears about it.Lord Korran had only let me go because I turned down his offer for sex. Certainly, the matter would be brought up. No one served him food except me.“What should I do, Astari?” I said.“You could go to Lord Zarek's chamber and plead your case,” she replied. “He might believe us.”“You're right,” I responded. Lord Zarek was the only one that could intervene for me, that is if only Lord Korran had not already found me guilty. I doubted he would choose my side over his brothers.I left my room and headed for his chamber. Suddenly a hand pulled on me, grappling me as his hand covered my mouth to prevent me from screaming. I fought back. I bit on his hand as I grabbed it and tossed him over. Suddenly a huge blow landed on the side of my face. I had been
