You Committed Pack Treachery!

(Eliza's POV)I met my grandmother's penetrating gaze without flinching. Her question hung in the air between us, heavy with implication. Did I regret orchestrating William's maiming? The answer came easily."No. I don't regret doing this."The words left my lips without hesitation, my voice steady and clear in the stillness of her chamber.Elder Morgan's face transformed instantly, fury replacing exhaustion as she slammed her walking stick against the floor with surprising force."Foolish!" she snapped, eyes blazing. "He is your brother by blood! Do you know what you've done?"I looked up, calmly facing her anger. Her rage didn't frighten me—I had endured far worse in my previous life."Grandmother, but he never treated me like his sister," I replied evenly. "He tried to kill me several times. I narrowly escaped each time. Next time, I may not be so lucky."My hand unconsciously rose to my throat where William's fingers had once closed, cutting off my breath. The memory was st

A Midnight Cook?

(Eliza's POV)"Miss Eliza, do you still remember the life-saving grace two months ago at Silverlake?" a voice emerged from the darkness. My hand tightened on my dagger."Our master has decided how you can repay this kindness. Please come with me tonight."I recognized the silhouette by my window. The moonlight caught the edge of a familiar silver-edged blade—the same one from that night on the boat when William tried to drown me."Raven Chase," I whispered, memories flooding back. The icy water. The strong arms pulling me from death.I considered my options. I owed this man my life. His ability to infiltrate my heavily guarded Maple Garden proved his skill."What does your master want from me?" I asked cautiously."That will be revealed when we arrive," Raven replied emotionlessly. "No harm will come to you."I put away my dagger. Resistance seemed pointless against someone of his abilities."Allow me to change," I said, gesturing to my sleeping clothes.He turned his back, g

Brother Awakes and Descends into Madness

(Eliza's POV)Five days had passed since the Mid-Autumn Festival. My fake rash had finally "healed" enough for me to leave Maple Garden.I stood before the mirror, arranging my hair. The transformation still startled me sometimes. The frightened girl who'd first been dragged to the Morgan estate was gone."Miss Eliza, are you ready to visit Elder Morgan?" Sparrow asked, entering with fresh clothes.I nodded, selecting a light blue dress. "I've prepared special venison for her breakfast. Is it packed?""Yes, Miss. The kitchen wrapped it carefully."The journey to Green Pine Sanctuary was peaceful. I'd missed these walks during my self-imposed confinement.Nanny Edwards greeted me at the entrance. Her weathered face revealed nothing."Good morning, Nanny Edwards," I said, bowing respectfully."Miss Eliza," she replied with a slight nod. "You're looking well. The rash has cleared completely."I smiled at her subtle acknowledgment of my fake illness. "Yes, thankfully. I've brough

Brother Will Be Driven Mad By Her

(James's POV)I paced the healing lodge, fury radiating from every step. My fists clenched as I fought to control my rage."How could you be so reckless?" I bellowed at William. "You've destroyed everything we've worked for!"William's eyes were vacant. My words seemed to wash over him without effect."Your obsession with Katherine's death has consumed you," I continued, my voice dropping to a dangerous whisper. "Now look at what it's cost us—your leg, your future, our family's standing!"Victoria sobbed quietly in the corner. Her eyes were swollen from days of weeping."Do you understand what you've done?" I demanded. "You attacked Alpha Alexander Hayes! A royal wolf! The King's son!"William's gaze finally flickered with recognition. "I saw her," he whispered. "Katherine... alive.""She's dead, William," I said flatly. "Katherine took her own life. We all saw the evidence."Victoria stumbled forward, collapsing beside William's bed. Her fingers clutched desperately at his re

A Grave Mistake!

(James's POV)I stared at the Blessing Bible passages spread across the table, my mind churning with more immediate concerns.Victoria shook her head. "They've only sent someone to inquire a few times and sent a lot of precious herbs. Gamma, if the Blackwell family really...""Even if they really want to break off the engagement, what can I do?" I sighed heavily, the weight of our family's predicament pressing down on me. "However, since they haven't mentioned it yet, we shouldn't bring it up either."The thought of the Blackwell family breaking William's engagement due to his severed leg filled me with dread. Without this alliance, William's future—and by extension, the Morgan pack's future—looked increasingly bleak.Victoria seemed to read my thoughts. "The Blackwell family values their reputation above all. They won't act rashly, even with William's... condition."I nodded, clinging to what little hope remained. "We'll wait and see. Perhaps they'll honor the arrangement despit

Grandmother Also Yearns for Something Unattainable

(Eliza's POV)I knew little about the prominent families in the Northern Territory. Most of my knowledge came from snippets of conversation overheard at formal events or brief mentions in Elder Morgan's lessons. What I did know was that my grandmother came from the prestigious Blackthorn family. Their reputation for producing exceptional warriors was legendary throughout the Northern Territory."I've heard that Grandmother's marriage to James's father was considered a step down," Sparrow had once whispered to me. "The Morgan pack, despite its current standing, pales in comparison to the Blackthorn family's status."I had stored this information away, curious but hesitant to ask Elder Morgan directly. Her past seemed to be a source of pain, evident in the shadow that crossed her face whenever the Blackthorn name was mentioned.Now, sitting across from her at breakfast, I watched as her eyes grew distant with memories."I had three brothers," she began, her voice softer than I'd e

The False Heiress's True Sister

(Sparrow's POV)I pressed my ear against the door, straining to catch snippets of conversation. Miss Eliza and Nanny Agatha were discussing someone in hushed tones again."Are you sure she's the one?" Miss Eliza asked.Ivy nudged me, her eyes wide with curiosity. "What are they saying?"I shook my head, gesturing for her to be quiet. This wasn't the first time I'd overheard them discussing a mysterious she-wolf. A month ago, Miss Eliza had tasked Nanny with finding someone. The details were scarce—just that it was to remain confidential unless Elder Morgan inquired directly."It's Ruby Pearson," I whispered to Ivy. "Katherine Morgan's younger sister."Ivy's mouth fell open in shock. "Katherine had a sister? A real one?"I nodded solemnly. "Katherine's biological parents had three children: Katherine herself, Ruby, and a brother named Ryan."The door suddenly opened, and I nearly tumbled forward. Nanny Agatha stood there, arms crossed, eyebrows raised."Eavesdropping again, a

Asking Her to Be a White Moonlight Substitute?

(Ruby's POV)I clutched the small handkerchief in my hands, staring at my clumsy embroidery. The crooked stitches seemed to mock my fall from grace."What happened after you arrived in the Northern Territory, Ruby?" Eliza asked, her voice surprisingly gentle despite our past.The memories rushed back, bitter as wolfsbane. I swallowed hard, forcing myself to meet her eyes."I arrived full of hope," I began, my voice barely above a whisper. "I believed Katherine would welcome me with open arms. After all, we shared the same blood."The bitter laugh that escaped my lips surprised even me. How naive I'd been."When I finally found her at a garden party, she looked right through me as if I were invisible," I continued, anger rising in my chest. "When I called her name, she turned with such disdain in her eyes."I could still see her face—so much like my own, yet transformed by wealth and privilege into something cold and unrecognizable."'Who are you?' she asked me. As if she didn't

She Is Indeed the True Blood of the Morgan Pack

(Eliza's POV)I stared at the blacksmith, surprised by his eager recognition. His professional demeanor had vanished."Your designs," he explained, pointing to a workbench. "I've been waiting for more. The dual-purpose dagger blueprint was extraordinary."Relief washed over me. For a moment, I'd feared he recognized me from somewhere else."I hadn't realized my design was so impressive," I said, maintaining my male disguise.The blacksmith's eyes lit up. "In thirty years of smithing, I've rarely seen such innovative work. My master was particularly intrigued."This caught my attention. "Your master?"He nodded eagerly. "Would you care to meet him? He's asked about you several times."The blacksmith led me through a narrow doorway. The master was wrapped in layers of clothing despite the forge's heat, only his pale face visible.A persistent cough shook his frame as we entered. "So you've finally come back. I was beginning to think you'd abandoned your talent.""I've been occu

He Cannot Ignore Eliza Morgan Any Longer!

(James Morgan's POV)I stared at Victoria, my patience wearing thin. Her constant complaints about Eliza had become insufferable."This constant comparison between Eliza and Katherine must stop," I said firmly. "It's absurd, especially considering William's insistence that he's seen Katherine alive!"Victoria's face paled instantly. Her mouth opened and closed like a fish out of water."You can't possibly believe—" she stammered."I don't know what to believe anymore," I cut her off sharply. "But I do know we can no longer ignore Eliza's potential value to our pack."I moved to the window, watching autumn leaves dance across the courtyard. The red and gold reminded me of blood and wealth – two things our pack desperately needed to secure."The Hawthorne pack has shown interest in her," I revealed. "Zachary Wilson himself has inquired after her multiple times."Victoria scoffed loudly. "Zachary? The same man who once despised her?""People's feelings change," I replied coolly.
