ISABELLA WEST…..Looking at my reflection in the mirror for one more time, I went out of my room, satisfied with my look. I was wearing a red sequin long dress with a slit, Mermaid spaghetti strap. I groom myself with a small diamond necklace with small diamond earrings and a bracelet. I was looking elegant.I was feeling nervous because the man I always loved since childhood was going to attend the full moon ceremony this time. He was away for studies and finally returned home this week. He also didn't find a mate like me. I hope we are a couple.I was near the stairs when I noticed Cassian waiting for me downstairs. He's been with me for two years. Dad appointed him as my bodyguard when I was kidnapped by his enemy. Cassian was like my shadow. He never leaves me alone.I descended the stairs gracefully and reached Cassian. “How am I looking, Cassian?” I asked him and he looked up at me.He always looked down and never met my eyes unless it's necessary. His eyes scanned me from head

ISABELLA….“Dad, why did you punish Cassian? He just followed my order." I balked, unable to control the irritation bubbling inside me.He sat behind his desk, buried in paperwork, not even sparing me a glance at first. “He deserved that punishment. I'm his employer. I appointed him for your protection, he should only follow my orders.”Then he finally looked up, his blazing eyes locking onto mine.“What if something happened to you last night? We would lose you forever. Do you even realize the seriousness of this matter? You are going to take over the Alpha title in some days. If you make such a foolish decision then I'm afraid I have to choose another candidate for this role.”I stared at him, stunned, hurt cutting through me like a blade. Yes, I’d made a mistake. Yes, I shouldn’t have gone alone. But he didn’t even bother asking why. He didn’t ask what broke me so deeply that I ran into the woods alone.He always threatened me with Alpha position. He knows how precious it was to me

By the time Sadie caught up with him inside the packhouse, Reece was walking stiffly, his jaw tight and brows drawn low.“Reece! Your room is this way!” she called from behind him.He didn’t slow down. “I know.”Sadie raised a brow. “You’ve never been here before.”He stopped abruptly. “I can smell her scent upstairs. I was heading that way.”Sadie blinked. “Her…? Oh. Bella’s scent?”He nodded once. His shoulders relaxed slightly, as if just hearing Isabella’s name made him breathe easier. But irritation still clung to him.“Reece,” Sadie said carefully and curiously, “don’t tell me you’re jealous of Cassian?”His jaw tightened. “Why was she worried about him?”“Because Cassian got punished for disobeying Alpha orders earlier,” she explained. “He left her alone as per her order and then she ran into a group of rogues. She would be dead by now if you didn't show up that night. He got punished for neglecting his duty. Isabella always cares about her pack members. She felt guilty that he

Gamma Victor smirked. “Alright, mystery wolf. Let’s see what you can do.” He gestured for Reece to follow him into the sparring ring.Gamma Victor circled him slowly. “No weapons. Just hand-to-hand.”Reece gave a short nod. The moment Victor moved, Reece’s body reacted. Fast. Too fast.He dodged the first punch like he had predicted it before Gamma Victor even threw it. His feet glided across the sand with the fluidity of someone trained for years, no hesitation, no panic, just instinct.Warriors watching nearby murmured.“Did you see that?”“Who moves like that without training?”“What is he?”Gamma Victor narrowed his eyes, intrigued. “Not bad. Again.”He lunged with more force, testing the newcomer’s limits. Reece blocked the hit cleanly. Then he countered. A swift movement, controlled, precisely aimed not to injure, but to disarm.Victor stumbled back half a step, shocked. Alpha Jason’s eyes sharpened. Isabella’s breath caught.Reece’s expression didn’t change. He looked neither p

The campus was buzzing louder than usual that morning. Students were scattered in little clusters, whispering excitedly about some “new transfer” who was joining mid-semester. Jules barely paid attention because transfers came and went. It wasn't something new. She had better things to think about, like what dress she would wear for tomorrow’s royal birthday banquet. And how to catch Cassian's attention.She walked through the courtyard, adjusting the strap of her bag, when she heard some noise coming from somewhere, soft, trembling sniffles.Jules stopped.A few feet ahead, near the side of a building, a girl stood with her books pressed tightly to her chest. Three seniors had cornered her. The new girl looked fragile, with a tiny frame, soft round face, hair tied in a clumsy braid that made her appear even younger than she probably was. Her eyes were wide, scared, and glistening.“Aww… look at her. She’s about to cry.”One of the girls mocked, tapping the new student’s chin with her
