ALARIC“ I am saving his life. ” She said, and made me step back.I watched her blood trickling down the length of her arm and dropping everywhere on the bed. I couldn’t fucking make sense of it.How was she trying to save Kael by shedding so much of her own blood?A frown settled between my brows as I fought the urge to step forward and stop her bleeding.But to my surprise, she looked unfazed as she reached for a glass filled with water on the bedside table. She dropped the water on the floor and then put the side of her wrist over the mouth of the glass. The blood started filling the glass instantly.“ What the fuck is this? ” I muttered under my breath.I had never seen anything like this before. No healer had ever wounded themselves this way in history.Then what was she trying to do?Was she stalling for time?Unconsciously, I stepped ahead and grabbed her elbow, pulling her wrist away from the glass. My gaze flickered towards her face, which was turning pale.“ What the fuck ar

ALARICI was about to pull her out of bed and get her started on the goal at hand, but Kael mindlinked me.‘ Lucien is on the border again. ’ He informed in a grim tone.Instantly, anger surged through my veins. I gritted my jaw and stepped away from Elara.‘ Is he trying to attack? ’ I questioned, already walking towards the door.‘ I don’t think so. He is just sitting there as if he is waiting for us. ’ He replied.A frown etched between my brows. ‘ Gather the warriors. We are heading to the border. ’‘ Yes, Alpha. ’I blinked, focusing on the door before me. Before I could step out, she called out to me.“ Alpha. ”I glanced at her from over my shoulder. Inevitably, my gaze fell on her messy hair and wide eyes. She looked so innocent when she was like this, just sitting in my bed, and all sleepy.She licked her lips, forcing my eyes to watch that movement. Those plump, pink lips…I gritted my jaw. My nose flared as I looked into her eyes again.“ At least, you do know now that I di

ELARAThe towel slipped soundlessly to the floor. My breath stopped and the room seemed to freeze around us.Alpha Alaric didn’t move. Neither did I.The only sound was my own heartbeat, pounding so violently that I was certain he could hear it too.His grey eyes remained fixed on me for one long, unbearable second before they slowly dropped to the floor. I squeezed my legs together and crossed my arms over my chest, hiding it from his view. He was not looking at me but I still felt my skin tingling. His jaw tightened. The muscles beneath his skin flexed once before he released a slow breath through his nose. Without saying a word, he crouched down. I yelped, jumping in my spot. My eyes followed him, confused.His large hand reached for the towel lying around my feet. His fingers brushed against the soft fabric before he lifted it effortlessly from the floor. When he stood again, the towel hung loosely from his hand. He didn’t look at my body–not even when I was standing

ALARIC“ Help me understand what the fuck is happening?! ” Kael hissed, running his restless fingers through his already messy hair.Right after I entered my study, he came rushing as if he couldn’t wait any longer. I just frowned after seeing him and took a seat on my chair behind the desk.Since then, he kept pacing around, mumbling rubbish and running his fingers through his hair.Now, he was finally talking to me. It was clear to me that he could understand what had happened to Stephanie, but…he didn’t want to admit it to himself. After all, how could he believe that his sweet little cousin sister abandoned his Alpha and ran straight into an enemy’s arms?“ Alaric… ” He whispered.“ How about this? ” I joined my fingers, giving him a thoughtful look. “ First, you tell me something, Kael, and then I will tell you what Stephanie did. ”“ What do you want to know? ” He came to stand in front of the desk and put his hands over it before leaning down and looking into my eyes. “ Just as

ELARAI paced around his room, still dressed only in his black T-shirt. A prominent thought kept making me restless.If Lucien was still looking for me, this meant…he wanted to kill me himself. He didn’t want me to share my powers with any other Pack, so he was going to drag me back and then end me.I sighed and rubbed my forehead. For now, I was safe in Alpha Alaric’s Pack, but Lucien had so many spies here. If someone delivered the news of my presence to him, he would declare war if that’s what it would take to get me back.Alpha Alaric must have realized all this, and so he would force me to heal his Pack members faster.A knock sounded on the door, breaking me out of the trance. I paused close to the bed and stared in that direction until the door opened and a young girl stepped inside.She was wearing a plain black dress that reached her knees and was carrying folded clothes in her arms.“ Miss, can I come in? ” She asked, still standing in the doorway.I nodded but didn’t say an
