Semua Bab ALPHA AWAKENED: Bab 11 - Bab 20

Kade The camp was quieter than usual, the air thick with smoke from the central fire pit and the distant murmur of night insects. Wolves patrolled the tree line, their silhouettes weaving between the pines. Kade stood beside one of the lantern posts, phone in hand, issuing orders in a clipped, controlled voice.“Expand the perimeter patrol. I want scouts on the ridge and the old streambed. And dig up everything from the attack eleven years ago—every witness, every scrap of record.” He paused, eyes sweeping the camp. “There’s something we didn’t see then.”He ended the call and exhaled slowly. Sammy prowled beneath his skin, impatient and protective, his wolf senses heightened after the ambush earlier that day.Behind him, canvas rustled. Westin approached, brushing pine needles off his pants. “The patrol is set. Camp’s secure for now.” He studied Kade’s tense posture. “You think today’s attack ties back to the old one?”Kade didn’t answer immediately. His gaze drifted to the far tent

KadeThe celebration was still glowing behind them—lanterns swaying, music drifting—but Kade barely heard any of it. His phone buzzed with the Ironridge seal flashing across the screen.He stepped away from the noise, Wyatt following with a questioning look.Kade answered. “Report.”Ironridge’s intel officer spoke quickly. “We finished cross-referencing the old logs, Alpha. The attack eleven years ago—Silvermoon wasn’t destroyed by rogues. It was hit by a coalition. Multiple packs working together. And one of them was Blackwater.”Wyatt swore under his breath.The officer continued, voice tightening. “The Silvermoon alphas… both were killed. The alpha male and the alpha female. And the female was alpha-born too.”Kade stopped breathing. A dual alpha pair. Silvermoon’s greatest pride… and biggest threat to ambitious packs.“What about their daughter?” Kade forced out.“Age two at the time of the attack,” the man said. “Never found. No remains. No confirmed sightings. Presumed dead.”Ka

They were less than three days from Kade’s territory when the wave of hostile scents hit the convoy like a punch.Dozens.Maybe more.Wyatt swore. “Damn it—Marcus sent them. This is an execution squad.”Before Kade could react, shadows burst from the treeline—wolves large and vicious, eyes filled with the mindless hunger Marcus bred into his fighters. The air erupted into snarls, snapping jaws, and clashing bodies.“Form a circle!” Kade roared. “Protect Sera—GO!”Lyra grabbed Sera’s arm. “Come on, we have to run!”“No.” Sera jerked free, eyes blazing. “I’m not leaving them.”“Sera—!” Kade’s voice cracked with command, dominance, fear.But she stepped forward instead of back.The attackers surged. Kade lunged, taking three wolves at once, claws slashing, teeth bared. Wyatt covered the right flank while Lyra’s wolf ripped through another attacker.Still—they were severely outnumbered.A massive wolf slammed into Kade’s side, throwing him hard into a fallen log. Sera screamed his name an

Kade The week before Sera’s eighteenth birthday arrived faster than anyone expected. Ironridge stirred with a quiet tension beneath its usual rhythm. Patrols doubled. Elders whispered in corners. Everyone sensed something coming—something big.Kade stood before the council table, shoulders squared, jaw tight. The long wooden chamber was lined with banners and torches, shadows dancing across the carved walls. His father sat among the elders today, not as Alpha-emeritus, but as advisor.“What you’re about to hear,” Kade began, “remains confidential until Sera’s birthday.”The council leaned in.He took a breath. “I believe Sera is the missing heir of Silvermoon.”Gasps echoed—sharp, disbelieving.Elder Thalen shook his head. “Impossible. The child died with the pack.”“No,” Kade said, voice steady. “Records from Ironridge cross-referenced with the intel from the attack eleven years ago. There were two alphas—a male and a female. The female was of rare alpha lineage. Their daughter, age

Alternating pov:Dawn had barely touched the horizon when the pain woke me—sharp, rolling, electric. My whole body trembled, skin too tight, bones burning. I gasped and clutched the blankets, trying not to scream.The door flew open.“Sera.”Kade was already at my side, dropping to his knees. He must have been waiting. Watching. Ready.“It’s starting,” I breathed, voice shaking.“I know, baby. I’ve got you.” He swept me into his arms, holding me like I weighed nothing.Every step he took toward the forest sent another pulse of heat through my blood. My wolf clawed at me, desperate, wild, so close I could feel her breath in my mind.KADEShe was burning in my arms—her skin flushed, heart racing too fast. Every instinct screamed to help her, shield her, take the pain for her. But this was something she had to go through herself.I carried her into the sacred clearing, the one our ancestors had used for generations. Lyra and the healer were already waiting, faces solemn but supportive.“
