Alaric’s POV One hour ago: I watched the warriors train with a grim expression on my face. I had been too lax in my methods these past couple of days. If not, how would such an event have taken place so close to my pack. Half of our warriors were out of the pack, and if such battles happen again close to our territory, it was something I could not just ignore. I had to be more prudent. “Alpha,” a guard walked up to me, bowing when he was only a few feet away. “There are letters from Alpha Xavier and Alpha Eric. I frowned slightly, taking the letter and dismissing him with a wav of my hand. I opened the first letter which turned out to be from the Kyrian Pack’s Alpha. As I read, my frown grew deeper and deeper. ‘Alpha Alaric, The news from our scouts has not been encouraging. While it appears that a faction of the rogue camps have broken out on their own, they are no less of an enemy to us and would likely make a move soon. Meanwhile, we have traced the whereabouts of the maj

Alaric’s POVI wasn’t sure of which I felt more: shame or anger.Was it the shame of being tricked by that woman? Or anger at myself for treating my mate that way? At this point it was more likely to be both.The moment I woke up, it felt like a veil had been lifted over my head. I had not questioned it until then, but truly, I felt free.For the first time I could think clearly, without any strange sensation in my body. ‘Master, we have truly returned.’My wolf was ecstatic.I was not unaware of the mystical laws and energies that guided our kind. After all, we were descendants of the Moon Goddess Herself, with our fates and bonds linked to such mystical forces.But I had never experienced it before, not to this extent.Every time I thought about my memories of the past weeks, I realized that I had been controlled by Seraphina.Each time it got worse and worse, leaving me unable to do without her and I had thought it was normal.All of it had started right from the beginning.I recal

Aurora’s POV“He’s fine. Much better actually. He’s been resting, but Elder Miriam has checked on him and so have I. There’s no new poison in his system. But he was affected by some backlash today. Likely because your essence was what’s been protecting him. So Elder Miriam put him in a deep sleep just in case.”“Okay,” I nodded.We talked some more, this time about everything and nothing, before I relaxed enough to send her away.I managed to undress, and as I took off my trousers, the pendant fell out of the pocket. I reached down to pick it up, only for my vision to go black briefly. I fell to the ground, panting heavily.My vision cleared, but my heart wouldn't stop pounding. The hum of that man’s pendant warmed my palm.I stood slowly, shifting my weight with effort until I finally flopped on the bed.The room was dim with only a bedside lamp illuminating the area around the bed.I raised the red-eyed man’s pendant to my face. With my other hand, I tugged at the smaller pendant res

Aurora’s POVMy steps were heavy, because even with over 7 hours of sleep I still felt unsteady on my feet.I walked with my head down, not in a panicked way. I simply didn't want to entertain any talk this morning, because I was headed to Elder Miriam’s cabin.The trial for Seraphina was going to be this afternoon, and between now and then, I had to take the opportunity to check on the man that had been injured before.I wasn't sure why I felt a deep connection with him.I had never met him before. Though my family had perished a while ago, I still held mementos, most of them kept in a locked box with the intention of passing them on to Asher and any other children we might have had in the future.I pressed my lips together, pushing myself to reach the cabin without letting slip the exhaustion I truly felt.Elder Miriam opened the door the second I raised my hand to knock. Not unexpected.“You look tired,” was what she said, pulling the door wider for me to pass through.“Good mornin

Alaric's POV With that she turned and walked away, entering the house while I stood there, reeling from her words as if it was a physical blow that struck me.If it were physical, maybe it wouldn't have ached so much.‘We fucked up,’ my Wolf said in my head.I didn't disagree.Because deep down, that mate bond had begun to treble, and I was fighting to keep it together.I looked down at the jar. Attached to it was a note, written in what I recognized to be Elder Miriam’s handwriting, though it was a little crooked.A sigh left my lips and I shook my head, entering the foyer of the house.Baby steps, Alaric, things are still quite tense.That was what I recited in my head over and over until I could breathe well again.The sound of a door slamming shut upstairs made me wince internally.It was only morning and the chaos had only just begun.Regret gnawed at me like a curse, and I walked over to the dining hall, hoping to get some breakfast before continuing my work.Asher was there, a
