Once the giggles subsided, Diva leaned back on her elbows and sighed contentedly. "Okay, so spill the tea. How’s the infamous Alpha Black in bed?"I groaned and grabbed a pillow to hide my face. "Absolutely not."⁹"Oh come on!" Dianne whined, nudging me with her foot. "We’re not asking for a play-by-play. Just give us something!"I peeked over the pillow. "Let’s just say... he lives up to the title."They squealed like teenagers, and Diva clutched her chest. "Blessed by the moon herself. I knew it."Dianne nodded sagely. "I mean, the man walks like he owns the wind. I’d be more surprised if he wasn’t good."Diva's face suddenly lit up. "Speaking of mates... I found mine.""What?!" I sat up straight, pillow forgotten.She nodded, her cheeks flushing. "Yeah. Just before the last patrol rotation. He’s one of the warriors from the south ridge. Name’s Kellan. Tall, dark, grumpy."Dianne snorted. "You’re into grumps.""No! Okay... maybe. A little," Diva admitted with a grin."What about yo

Tonight, it was just us—Darius and me, tangled in the heat of our bond, the air thick with the scent of pine and earth and him. His lips moved against mine, slow and deliberate, a kiss that felt like a claim and a promise all at once. My hands found his shoulders, fingers digging into the hard muscle there, grounding myself in the reality of him. My mate. My alpha. Mine.His hand slid further beneath my shirt, his calloused fingers tracing patterns across my ribs, sparking heat that bloomed deep in my core. I arched into his touch, a soft moan escaping me as his lips left mine to trail along my jaw, down the sensitive column of my neck. The mark he’d given me two nights ago pulsed under his breath, a living reminder of our bond, and every brush of his lips against it sent shivers racing through me, electric and overwhelming.“Darius,” I whispered, my voice trembling with the weight of what I felt—the love, the need, the raw instinct of our wolves calling to each other. He growled low

My hands slid down his arms, my nails grazing his skin, leaving faint red lines that made him shudder. I kissed his jaw, his throat, lingering over the mark I’d left last night, now a faint, proud scar that pulsed under my lips. His heartbeat thundered there, strong and steady, calling to me, and I nipped at the skin, teasing, testing.He groaned, his hands gripping my hips, urging me on. “Selene,” he rasped, his voice raw with need, and it sent a thrill through me, knowing I could unravel him like this. My wolf was wild now, clawing at the surface, urging me to reaffirm our bond, to make him mine in every way. I kissed the mark again, harder this time, my teeth grazing the sensitive skin, and his body tensed beneath me, a low moan escaping him.I moved against him, slow at first, then faster, my body driven by the rhythm of our bond, by the need to be closer, to be one. His hands guided me, his touch both gentle and commanding, his eyes locked on mine, filled with a love so fierce i

"It’s here," I whispered. “The markings... they’re real.”But before I could even read the first line, a sharp growl shattered the silence."Rogues!" someone shouted.Snarls followed, loud and vicious, and within seconds, the clearing erupted into chaos. Shapes burst from the tree line—dozens of them—feral, mangled beasts with dead eyes and wild limbs, moving not like wolves, but like shadows stitched together with rage.I turned around, already shifting. Luna surged forward with a growl that tore through my throat, her white fur glowing like a flare in the growing dusk. Darius shifted beside me, his black wolf towering and lethal.The warriors surrounded us in formation, claws flashing, growls vibrating through the earth.I met Darius’s eyes through the mind-link.No holding back, he said.Wouldn’t dream of it.We lunged forward together into the wave of rogues.The air exploded with snarls and the sickening crunch of bone against claw. My wolf, Luna, was a storm of white fury, teeth

He stepped in front of me, his black fur bristling, every muscle tensed for a fight we weren’t sure we could win.The warriors tightened their formation, their growls a low hum of defiance. But I could feel their fear, sharp and bitter, mixing with my own.The creature took a step forward, its claws gouging the earth, and I braced myself, Luna ready to fight to the death if it came to that. But my eyes flicked back to the carvings, to the words that might hold the key to everything.We were so close.The creature lunged, a blur of twisted limbs and glowing red eyes, its movements sharp and deliberate, like it was hell-bent on keeping us from the mountain. Its claws tore through the air, aiming for me, but Darius’s black wolf was faster. He let out a roar that shook the earth, deep and primal, rattling my bones. The sound should’ve stopped anything in its tracks, but this thing—this monstrosity—didn’t even flinch. It moved like it had no mind, no soul, just a hollow shell driven by some

The other warriors—Thorne, Ewan, Lira, and Cale—were still in their wolf forms, their eyes scanning the trees for any sign of more threats. The air was thick with the scent of blood and magic, but the rogues were gone, and the creature… whatever it was, it was no more.I stepped back from Darius, my hand lingering on his arm, and turned to the mountain.The carvings were still there, etched deep into the stone, their ancient lines calling to me like a heartbeat. I felt Nora stir inside me, a quiet nudge, urging me forward. “Darius,” I said, my voice steady now, though my body still buzzed with adrenaline. “We need to read the carvings. Now.”He nodded, his jaw tight, his eyes flicking to the mountain. “Agreed. But we stay alert. That thing… it wasn’t random. Something’s guarding this place.”I swallowed, the weight of his words settling in my chest. He was right. The rogues, the creature, the magic—it was all connected to the mountain, to the secrets carved into its stone. I glanced at

He is… something else.”I shook my head, my mind spinning, trying to grasp the edges of this nightmare. “How do I stop him? How do I kill him?”She sighed, the sound heavy with centuries of exhaustion. “I don’t know, child. No one has ever come this close to him and lived. But you have one advantage—he wants you alive, not dead. That gives you time to learn what he seeks, to find the crack in his armor.”“Time?” I snapped, my voice rising, sharp with frustration. “You’re telling me to play games with some ancient monster? I didn’t sign up for this!”Seraphina’s eyes narrowed, her voice cutting like a whip. “None of us choose, Selene. Your mother didn’t choose to die to protect you. I didn’t choose to wait lifetimes for you to wake. The world doesn’t care about your wants—it cares about what you’ll do.”Her words stung, slicing through my anger and leaving me raw. Darius’s grip on my hand tightened, his warmth steadying me, and I took a shaky breath. “What do I do, then? Where do we go f

The love between them was obvious, a bond so strong it made my chest ache with recognition. It was like looking at Darius and me, mirrored across time.But then the scene shifted, like a page torn from a book, and the air grew heavy. They were somewhere else now, a stone chamber lit by torches, the walls etched with runes that pulsed with faint power. Maradona’s face was drawn, her eyes pleading as she faced the same man, but his warmth was gone, replaced by a coldness that made my skin crawl.“I can’t do this, Kas,” she said, her voice soft but firm, trying to reach him. “This plan of yours—it’ll destroy our people. It’ll wipe out everything we’ve fought for.”His eyes, once so full of love, hardened, and he stepped back, putting distance between them. “You will do as I say, Maradona,” he roared, his voice shaking the air. “If you have even an ounce of love for me, you’ll stand with me.”Maradona flinched, shock flashing across her face, but she held her ground. “Kas, please,” she sai

Maradona—my mother. She was with Kasamaan, arguing. He wanted her to do something, something that would destroy their people. She refused, stood up to him. And then…” I swallowed, my throat tight. “I saw her with someone else. A man, and a woman—her friend. She was pregnant. With me.”Darius’s hand tightened on mine, his eyes searching my face. “What did she say? Anything about him? About how to stop him?”I shook my head, frustration burning in my chest. “She didn’t say how to kill him. But she stood up to him, Darius. She wasn’t afraid, even when he turned on her. She called him out, called him Kasamaan.”His jaw clenched, his voice low. “Then we know he’s not invincible. If she could stand against him, so can you.”I nodded, but the weight of the vision pressed down on me. My mother had fought, had loved, had carried me knowing what was coming. And now it was my turn. I looked around the chamber, the runes on the walls glowing faintly, their power still calling to Nora, to the bloodli

She raised her staff, and an invisible barrier shimmered into place, a wall of magic that held back the tide of snarling, shadowy figures trying to cross into the pack lands.But then she faltered, her knees buckling, blood dripping from her mouth and side. I gasped, my heart lurching as I saw her friend—the woman from the balcony—standing behind her, a sword in her hand, slick with Maradona’s blood. Maradona turned, her eyes wide with shock and betrayal. “Why?” she whispered, her voice breaking.The woman’s face crumpled, tears streaming down her cheeks. “I’m sorry,” she sobbed. “They said they’d free my father if I did this.I had no choice.”Maradona shook her head, her hand pressing against her side, blood seeping through her fingers. “You always have a choice, I course you and your generations to come you python” she said, her voice soft but cutting, even as she sank to her knees.The barrier shimmered and faded, and across the battlefield, I saw him—Kasamaan. His eyes burned with a
