All Chapters of Fated To My Best Friend's Alpha : Chapter 31 - Chapter 39

THE SILENCE AFTER THE STORM The council hall remained silent long after Chris left. No one seemed willing to move or speak. The weight of what had just happened hung heavily in the room.Anna stood frozen for several seconds before finally turning toward the gathered wolves.Their faces told her everything. She could see the fear, concern and uncertainty written over their faces. They were beginning to worry about their Alpha.Steve was the first to break the silence. "Meeting's over."His voice was firm enough to snap everyone back to reality. Slowly, the wolves began filing out.Tyler lingered near the doorway, guilt written plainly across his face.Anna noticed it immediately. "Tyler."He stopped. For a moment he looked like he wanted to run.Instead, he turned back. "I didn't mean for that to happen."Anna sighed quietly. "I know."His expression twisted. "No, you don't." He rubbed a hand over his face. "Every time I challenge him, things get worse."Anna remained silent because

THE WARNING FROM THE NORTH The pain hit Anna so suddenly that her knees nearly gave out. One second she was standing beside Steve outside the cabin, and the next, a wave of shock crashed through the mate bond hard enough to steal the air from her lungs. She grabbed the railing. Her vision blurred. Something was terribly wrong, she could feel it. "Anna!" Steve caught her before she fell. The concern in his voice sounded distant. As though she were hearing him from underwater. "What happened?" Anna pressed a trembling hand against her chest. The emotions flooding through the bond weren't hers. They belonged to Chris. Her heart began hammering. "Chris." Steve immediately straightened. "What about him?" Anna didn't answer. She was already running. The bond pulled her forward like an invisible thread. She ran past the cabins. Past the training grounds, toward the council hall. Steve followed her close behind. By the time they reached the building, wolves had already begun gatheri

THE BETA'S BURDEN The words seemed burned into Chris's mind.Beware the wolf closest to your son.The journal lay open on the desk between him and Anna, its aged pages illuminated by the dim lantern light. Neither had spoken for nearly a minute.Outside, the wind rattled against the old building's windows.Inside, silence pressed heavily around them. Chris stared at the final entry again. As if reading it enough times might somehow change the words.Anna watched him carefully. She could feel his emotions through the mate bond. He was confused and fear clouded his thoughts. She felt the doubt that lingered, not toward Steve but toward everything.If his father had truly known about the Moonborn bloodline, what else had he hidden?"What are you thinking?"Chris finally looked up. His expression was troubled."I'm thinking my father chose a terrible time to leave answers."Anna almost smiled. The situation was too serious to be smiling about it."You don't believe Steve is involved."It

THE ENEMY WITHINThe silence inside the healer's cabin lasted several long seconds after Maya's revelation. Nobody moved or spoke.The words seemed to echo endlessly through the room.Someone inside Blood Moon already told him. The words replayed in her mind. Anna felt her stomach knot.Deep down… She had known Draven's knowledge was too precise, too personal.He knew her name. He knew about her visions. He knew where to strike.And despite all their precautions, he always seemed one step ahead.Chris's expression hardened into stone."Tell me everything."Maya swallowed. Her hands trembled slightly as she pulled the blanket tighter around herself."I don't know who the informant is.""No," Chris said quietly. "But you know something."She looked away. Fear flickered across her face, the kind that came from remembering horrors.Then slowly she nodded. "I heard them talking."Steve immediately stepped closer. "Who?""Draven's wolves."The room grew still.Maya took a shaky breath. "The

THE TRAITOR REVEALED The army arrived at Blood Moon before sunrise. A cold fog hung over the territory, creeping between the trees like ghostly fingers. The camp was already awake, no one had slept. Warriors sharpened blades around dying campfires. Scouts moved rapidly between defensive positions. Mothers gathered children into reinforced shelters beneath the eastern cliffs. The entire pack waited and somewhere beyond the northern mountains… Draven was coming. Anna stood beside Chris at the main watchtower, her cloak fluttering in the wind. Neither had spoken since her vision. Draven isn't trying to become stronger. He's trying to become immortal. The realization haunted her, immortality wasn't something normal wolves sought. It wasn't natural. It wasn't part of the Moon Goddess's design. Which meant whatever D
