A red-faced Reylin huffed as she heaved a dirty sack full of hay over her shoulder. Heavy boots trudging two inches into the snow-covered ground a moment later, towards the beaten-down shed.  She exhaled a shaky breath as a particularly cold chill ran down her spine. She frowned, tugging at her thick fur coat with nimble fingers covered in black cotton gloves that may have seen better days. "Rey!" Her attention snapped over to the little curly-haired boy waving frantically to get her attention, a toothy grin spread on his reddened cheeks.  Rey smiled and waved back at him with her free hand, only looking away when he turned back to his friends who were playing in the snow. She shook her head and quickened her pace towards the shed so she could get her little brother indoors where it's warm before the little troublemaker catches a cold.  Pulling open the rickety door of the rundown shed, it made a loud creaking noise. She walked in and dropped the bag, ripping it open and emptying

“Load them up!" the general roared at the soldiers, who immediately sprang into action, forcing the humans into a straight line and beating the rebellious ones into submission. They pushed the last of the villagers into the awaiting trucks, shutting and locking the doors behind them. The door to a cabin was pushed open rather roughly; it almost fell off its hinges. Black combat boots stepped out onto the snow; with each step he took, the snow crunched under his feet, leaving behind large footprints. The general inclined his head in submission when the man came to stand in front of him. "Alpha Orion," he bowed in greeting. "Was that the last of them?" the Alpha asked in a gruff tone, nodding towards the trucks. "Yes, Alpha," the general replied quickly, folding his hands behind his back. The Alpha hummed and nodded. He gripped the small silk scarf he'd been clutching and brought it to his nose; taking a long inhale, he shut his eyes. Cold grey eyes snapped open, a growl rumbling f

Orion watched the female's eyes roll to the back of her head, her small frame going limp in his arms as she lost consciousness. Without a word, he lifted her in his arms, cradling her against his chest while keeping her face from view before turning to the other Lycans behind him. The general had a shocked expression on his face, but when the Alpha's stern gaze met his, he quickly averted his gaze, straightened up, and cleared his throat. "Find the boy; he went that way," Orion ordered, nodding to the other side of the woods. "Yes, Alpha," he quickly sprang into action, barking out orders to the soldiers. Orion turned away from the scene and started towards the village with the human girl in his arms; looking down at her, he narrowed his eyes when he noticed the red fingerprints stark against the caramel skin of her neck and sighed. He hadn't realised he was holding her too tight until she began to lose consciousness. He knew humans were fragile and dispensable, but this was his m

Rey walked out of the room and paused at the doorway to access her surrounding. The long hallway was dimly lit by yellow bulbs randomly placed high on the walls, that she could make out the stone walls that had grime stuck to it. She looked left and right, weighing her options on which path to follow before swiftly jogging down her left in hopes it was the way to the exit. She walked swiftly, looking over her shoulders in paranoia when she heard even the tiniest sound of mice scuttling across the stone floors. From the stale air, she could deduced that she was underground which meant she had to find her way up and out of whatever that place was.  There were closed doors on either side of the walls and what creeped her out the most was how eerily quiet it was. She exhaled slowly, letting the fear dissipate through her pores. She approached a rusted red door which had multiple locks and she sighed in relief, quickly pulling out the keys from her pocket and trying everyone of them until

Orion was beyond livid when he learned that the filthy little human had single-handedly murdered a Lycan in cold blood-a crime punishable by death, one of his own-and was trying to escape, not that she could succeed. Even as he sat in the meeting with his council, he was distracted by the thought of her, and rightly so. The filthy human was unpredictable, but now he had her exactly where he wanted. He knew it was low of him to use her little brother as leverage, but he brushed off those thoughts as soon as they came. He reminded himself that she was just a filthy little human and he could do with her as he pleased. "Alpha Orion," he snapped out of his thoughts at the sound of his name, his heated gaze meeting the eyes of the Clan Head who'd disrupted his train of thoughts. The older Lycan cowered at the intensity of the Alpha's gaze fixated on him and sputtered his words while the other six Clan Heads seated across the oval table grew quiet. "W-we just got news that one of our f

"Happy birthday to you!" "Happy birthday to you!" Rey snapped her eyes open at the sound of singing voices to see her parents standing by the side of her bed, their mouths stretched out in a wide grin that lit up their eyes, with a cake in her mother's hand, lit up by a bunch of colourful candles. "Happy birthday, little bean," the middle-aged man murmured, reaching down to caress her cheek ever so softly as soft dark eyes held hers. "Thank you daddy," Rey responded, her smile wide but it quickly turned down into a frown when she heard the sound of her own voice. She realized it sounded different from what she remembered, almost like she'd aged a decade backward. She quickly sat up on the bed; the pink comforter that she'd been clutching slowly slid down to her waist. She pushed it off, climbing down from her bed only for her father to engulf her in a bear hug. She grinned, relishing in the warmth his familiar scent provided. "Come, honey, you have to make a wish." The woman chu

Rey was jolted awake by the sound of her cell door opening the next morning. She remained huddled against the farthest corner of the cell, her back against the cold, hard wall. Two guards stepped into the cell, their expressions menacing as they sneered at her, evident disgust etched on their faces. She eyed them warily, her back taut, alert and ready to defend herself if it came down to it. They exchanged glances, almost like they were having a silent conversation. And she frowned, curious as to why they were there in the first place. One of them stood by the open cell door, his back pin straight, while the other began to stomp towards her, his boot-clad feet resonating against the cement ground like thunder ripping through the clouds. "S-stay away," she stuttered, her hand gripping the chain around her ankle as he bounded closer. He ignored her, reaching for the chain around her ankle and ripping it off in one go. She gasped in horror as the metal bit into her skin sharply,

Orion was flipping through some important paperwork when a rasp of knocks sounded at the door. He looked up from the thick file his attention had been buried in to glance at the door"Come in," he grunted in response, and not a moment later, the handle turned, and the door was pushed open.A guard walked in gripping Rey's arm and pulling her roughly into the Alpha's office, followed by the other guard.Orion reclines against his chair, his steely gaze riveted on the human who had her eyes downcast, her damp curls framing her face."Alpha," the guards said in unison, inclining their heads in reverence and not daring to meet his eyes."Leave," he ordered in a deadly calm tone that left no room for questions.They bowed, shuffling backwards before slipping out and shutting the door behind them, leaving Rey standing alone in the belly of the beast.Slowly, his eyes swept down her form, noting that she seemed cleaner than the last time he had seen her in the cell, covered in filth and grim

Rey visibly recoiled at his statement, subconsciously gripping her broken wrist to her chest, and he chuckled darkly before plopping down on his seat.He enjoyed toying with her far too much for his own good, but what could he do? It gets boring at some point being alive for as long as he has. She was the best source of entertainment he didn't know he needed until he met her."You're looking at me like I'm a monster. Don't be ridiculous; monsters aren't nearly as charming as I am." He grinned, flashing his elongated canines like this was just another game, which it was for him, but she didn't find it funny.At all.She was scared shitless being alone with that monster, but inasmuch as she tried to hide her thundering heart, she was acutely aware that he could smell her fear.She threw a quick glance at the door behind her, her instincts urging her to flee before he did something to her.A few more steps and she could run from here before he decided to hurt her for his sick pleasure, s

Miller's stomach dropped, his pulse stuttering in shock. If that was what he thought it was... then the Alpha hadn't just claimed her, he'd marked her and that changed everything.His mouth opened, then closed. His brows furrowing as deep lines creases his usually friendly face."He bit you?" he asked again, this time softer, like he wasn't sure he wanted to hear the answer a second time."Yes." Her voice was barely above a whisper.His chest lifted with a sharp breath. It looked like it cost him something. "That wasn't just a warning," he muttered, more to himself than to her. "He marked you... as a mate."Reylin blinked. "What?""Nothing," he said quickly, too quickly. "Nothing at all." But she didn't miss the tremor in his hands as he packed up the ointment in a silent rush.Before she could press him further, the door creaked open behind them, and they both turned. A she-wolf strode into the room, her blond hair pulled up in a tight ponytail that made her features seem sharper and
