Later that day, I was called to the throne room. There, I met Torren, a few Elders, Tim and Alpha Kade.In sighting the stern faces Torren and the elders present, I knew that I was in trouble. The coward had reported what I had done to him. I raised my head up high. Torren had done worse. They had to punish him for the warriors he had injured and killed ‘accidentally.’I bowed my head in greeting to the Alpga, Beta Tim and the elders, acting like Torren did not exist in the room.“There she is. She made mockery of a warrior. This is why she wolves should not be warriors.”Tim scoffed. “All I heard from the story was that she whooped your ass and now you are whining like the brat that you are.”Torren made a fist but he dared not say a word to the Beta. “My Alpha, she should be punished heavily for what she did to Torren. She disrespected someone that would possibly be the head of warriors tomorrow. She should he punished for humiliating someone the masses see as a hero. Torren is one

Days passed and soon, I became Alpha Kade’s favorite spar partner. I was happy with the new development but I needed more than just being Kade’s spar partner. I sighed at the thought. I was the only one who wished to be a consistent figure in his life. He probably had never thought about it.Especially now that he had forgotten a whole lot of his later memories about us. I shrugged. It was probably for the better. There was just a lot of tension between us when he still had his memories intact.Perhaps, but this was a chance to write a whole new chapter. Just that the uncertainty and wait was killing me. Sadly, I could do little to nothing about it. I just had to focus on my new role as the warrior of this pack. ‘But you want to be promoted from warrior to Luna so badly,’ I heard my wolf say. She was mostly always silent. Most times, I forget that I had a being whose thoughts were totally different from mine in my head. My wolf rarely spoke but whenever she did, I always get reminded

The announcement came the next morning. I was in the training grounds with Tim when Fenrir strode toward us, his expression unusually serious. A hush fell over the warriors as he climbed onto the raised platform at the center.“Attention,” he said, his voice carrying easily across the grounds. “The position of head warrior is now open for contest.”A ripple went through the gathered wolves. My stomach twisted in anticipation. This was it. This was my chance to solidify my place here, to prove that I was more than just Alpha Kade’s spar partner.Fenrir continued. “Any warrior who wishes to claim this position must step forward.”I felt eyes on me immediately. Alpha Kade’s gaze lingered a little too long, though he kept his face calm. My chest tightened, and for a second I wished I could ignore him entirely. But I couldn’t. I could never ignore him. Torren was the first to step forward. His smirk was infuriatingly self-satisfied. “I will take the position,” he declared. His voice was l

The pack grounds were quieter that evening.Most warriors had gone to rest after the trials. The excitement from the day had slowly faded, leaving behind a tense silence that hung in the air.I remained in the training grounds long after everyone else had left. My muscles were sore but I continued practicing with my blade.My wolf was restless inside me.‘You already proved yourself,’ she said.“That wasn’t the final decision,” I muttered under my breath.‘But it will be.’I paused and wiped the sweat from my forehead. Across the grounds, I could feel a familiar presence. Alpha Kade.He had been standing there for a while now, leaning against the wooden fence like he always did when he watched our sparring sessions. I had sensed him earlier but pretended not to notice.“You’re going to wear the ground out if you keep going like that,” he said.I lowered my blade and turned toward him. “Are you here to criticize my training?”A faint smile appeared on his lips. “I’m here to see if you

I stepped back the moment Tim appeared, my body stiffening instantly. The heat of being near Lyra vanished like it had never existed. I could feel the weight of Tim’s gaze on me. “Good morning, Alpha,” Tim said slowly. He looked at me like he was expecting an answer to the question he had asked. “Morning,” I replied shortly, keeping my distance from Lyra. Every instinct in me screamed to reach for her, to close the space between us, but Tim was here. And I knew better than to challenge him.Tim raised an eyebrow, the faintest smirk tugging at his lips. “Training together so early, huh?”I swallowed, trying to keep my voice steady. “Yes. We were… practicing.”Tim’s eyes flicked to Lyra, then back at me. “You look like you were getting a little too close for comfort.”I clenched my fists without realizing it. “We weren’t doing anything wrong,” I said quickly.“Why are you quick to defend yourself? I did not mention anything about anybody doing something wrong.” I looked away without s
