THE THORNVEIL OUTCAST

ANYA The Thornveil estate glimmered with lanterns and ribbons that night, the grand hall filled with chatter and laughter. It was supposed to be my night, my eighteenth birthday, the night I would finally discover my mate. Being Beta’s first daughter meant the entire pack was invited. The Gamma family and their kin stood among the crowd, watching with keen eyes as the celebration unfolded, waiting to see who fate had chosen for me.“Poor Anya.”The whispers rippled as I made my way toward the cake.“Such a shame… Beta’s daughter cursed with that face.”My younger sister, Juliana, stood among the crowd, radiant as always, her golden hair catching the light. Even tonight, my night, her beauty stole every eye. I felt her gaze brush over me, sharp and mocking rather than sisterly.Juliana’s laugh cut through the hall like glass.“Honestly, Anya, did you even look in a mirror before coming down tonight? Goddess, even if your dress could save you, your face won’t. Not without makeup.”A ri

PAIN AND DETERMINATION

ANYAI ran deeper into the forest, forcing back my tears, forcing down my wolf. I masked my scent so no one could find me. The thought of escaping to the city and pretending to be human crossed my mind, but I knew it wasn’t possible. That life wasn’t mine. All I could do now was find another pack, far from my pack, far from my family, and begin again.Hours passed before I stumbled upon a waterfall. Its silver curtain of water glimmered in the moonlight, soft and inviting. My legs ached, my body weary, so I laid my blanket on the grass, set my bag aside, and slipped into the cold pool beneath the falls. The icy water stung, but it washed away the dirt, the sweat, and some of the shame clinging to me.When I dressed again, I lay back on my blanket, staring up at the sky. “Is this what I’ve become?” I whispered. “A runaway… soon to be branded rogue if I don’t find a pack fast enough. The Moon Goddess gave me a mate only to take him away. Why?” My words faded into the night, carried by t

THE MATE HE NEVER EXPECTED

ALARICThe night was still, yet heavy with unspoken weight.At twenty-five, my life had become a cycle of duty and bloodshed, victories that left me emptier with each passing day. Others spoke of fate and bonds, of love that steadied the soul, but mine was a path paved only with responsibility. Power and loyalty I had in abundance, yet there were nights, like this one, when the silence pressed in too tightly, and I wondered if this was all the Moon had left for me.“She’s out there,” Orion, my wolf, whispered in my mind. His deep, rumbling voice carried conviction I couldn’t share.“You’ve said that for years,” I muttered, dragging a hand through my dark hair as I stared at the forest stretching beyond the palace walls. “If she were truly out there, I’d have found her by now.”Orion growled softly, not in anger but in warning. “You’re impatient. The Moon does not rush destiny.”I scoffed, though part of me wanted desperately to believe him.Behind me, the heavy wooden doors creaked op

THR WEIGHT OF FATE

ALARICThe hallways of Valemont Hall fell silent as I strode in, my mate cradled against me. Her scent was faint, her breathing shallow. The blood smeared across her skin filled my mouth with the taste of iron, and every step I took pressed fury deeper into my bones. Servants lowered their heads, guards stepped back, and the heavy chamber doors opened before me.I carried her straight into my chambers and laid her on my bed, her body looking far too small against the dark furs. My jaw clenched as I saw the cuts on her arms, the dirt marring her cheeks. She looked as though the world itself had tried to break her.Orion stirred inside me, his voice low, steady. “She needs you. Not as Alpha. Not as Lycan. As her mate.”I opened the mind-link, sharp and commanding. Physician. Now. To my chambers. Bring everything."Yes, Alpha" , the physician replied instantly.Within minutes, Evelina and Dorian slipped in behind the physician, who entered quickly, bowing. The scent of herbs and tinctur

THE SECOND BOND

ANYA Pain. It was the first thing I felt before I even opened my eyes. A sharp, splitting ache started at the base of my skull and pulsed through my entire body. My head felt as though it was on fire, every breath scraping like glass through my lungs. A broken sound escaped me, then a full scream before I could stop it. The noise ripped from my throat, raw and desperate. Somewhere close, a deep voice cursed softly. The sound of a chair scraping, heavy footsteps rushing closer. “Are you okay?” My eyes fluttered open. Brightness stabbed at me, making the pain in my head explode all over again. I groaned and shut them tightly, trying to curl away from it, but a warm hand was suddenly at my back, steadying me. “She’s awake,” the same voice said again, but it cracked this time. I forced my eyes open once more. The first thing I saw was a man, no, not a man, something more. He was standing at the edge of the bed, his eyes an impossible storm-gray, his dark hair mussed as though he h

SHE BELONGS TO ME

KIERANShe had only just opened her eyes before the color drained from her face. Panic flickered in them, and before I could reach her, she fainted again, her body going limp against the sheets.A growl rumbled in my chest as I mind-linked the physician immediately. Get here. Now.Within minutes, the man was at my chambers, bowing before approaching the bed. He checked her pulse, her breathing, and his brows furrowed.“What’s wrong with her now?” I asked, sharper than intended.He hesitated. “My lord… there is no physical injury beyond what I’ve already treated. Perhaps she was startled or overwhelmed, and her body could not handle the stress. That could explain her fainting.”My eyes narrowed. “Is she mute?”“I cannot say for certain,” the physician admitted. “We will only know when she wakes again. I’m sorry, Alpha.”“Leave.” My voice was low, firm, leaving no room for argument. He bowed quickly and retreated.The room fell silent except for the sound of her soft, uneven breaths. I

BEFORE HE COULD BREAK ME

ANYA When I opened my eyes, the room was quiet, too quiet. Soft sunlight filtered through the curtains, painting the walls in faint gold. My head ached, and every part of my body felt heavy, but the pain was nothing compared to the ache in my chest. Slowly, everything came rushing back, the forest, the rogues, the blood... and then him. The man who had found me. The man whose scent still lingered faintly on the sheets. My mate. My breathing hitched as I sat up slowly, clutching the blanket around me. How was that even possible? The Moon Goddess had already given me a mate, one who broke me in front of everyone. Was this some kind of mistake? "He’s not a mistake," my wolf whispered softly in my mind. He’s our true one. “No,” I murmured, shaking my head, though my voice trembled. “I can’t go through this again. I won’t.” He was powerful, I could feel it even in his absence. Whoever he was, he wasn’t just a man. The way his energy filled the air... it was commanding

ECHOES OF REJECTION

ALARICThe words echoed through my head, cutting through the silence like a blade. “I reject you.”For a moment, I thought I’d misheard her. The room went still, and the sound of my own breathing was the only thing that existed.Orion stirred in the back of my mind, a low growl rumbling through our shared consciousness. "She didn’t mean that, he snarled. Our mate wouldn’t reject us. She’s just scared."Yet there was no sharp pain, no tearing of the bond. Just… emptiness.Still, it hurt.Not the way the bond was supposed to hurt, but something deeper, something that clawed at my chest.She stood there, fragile and trembling, yet her eyes held a quiet fire. The very thought of her rejecting me after barely waking up felt unreal.I took a step forward. “Why?” I asked, my voice low, rough. “Why do you want to reject me?”She didn’t look at me. Her gaze stayed fixed on the floor, her hands clutching the sheets as if she could disappear into them.“Because it’s better I reject you before
