Darius X Alador Novels & Stories

“We managed to defend our territory without losing any pack members. Seraphina played a big part in our victory—her strategy was brilliant.” Papa looked at me proudly. “Of course. She learned from the best,” he winked at me. “But,” Kaelos continued, his expression slightly serious, "Darius—the Alpha of Blue Ridge—is still missing. He fled after the last attack. We are still searching for him.“ ”Darius...“ Papa frowned. ”I met that young Alpha a few years ago. He was... troubled. There was something dark inside him.“ ”He's dangerous,“ I added softly. ”And now he's desperate. That's a scary combination.“

“What are you planning?” Kaidora’s expression hardened. “Introducing a new person into your life now would raise suspicion. The alpha kings are already paranoid after the attack on Lucien. A mysterious new ally appearing right after Dylan’s death?” She shook her head. “They would investigate and most likely discover things we can’t afford to let them know.” “So what, then?” Aurelian demanded. “How is Darius supposed to help me if he can’t even be seen with me?” “He will be seen with you.” Kaidora moved to the altar, lifting the bowl of Dylan’s blood. “Just not as Darius.”

“Now it would be Nick.” “Charlotte and Jessica can block the stairway with magic,” Malachi said and I nodded. “I’ll be in my cloak,” Kiran said and Adara shot him a glare. “No fire, I promise. I’m never going back to Helheim.” “How many guns do you have in the house?” Malachi asked and Charlotte started to laugh. “Nine in the house and seventeen in the forest,” I said and he shook his head as he chuckled. “I guess I’ll take a gun or two,” Malachi said.

“I am not going to let them hurt you” I didn’t believe it, he had already locked me in one room As we rode in, the men on the gate waved us through and everyone pulled up in front of the packhouse, Maddox and his son Hayden were stood out the front, they didn’t recognise me at first, probably because I was so clean and in fresh clothes. Maddox greets them all, “Welcome to the Black night pack, who is your Alpha?” Daryl climbs off his bike, revealing me “I am Alpha Daryl from the Crescents pack, I believe you know my mate” he spoke powerfully and possessively whilst Maddox and Hayden stare at me

I turn slowly, and there he is. Alpha King Darius. Hair disheveled from the wind. His jaw clenched so hard it looks like it might crack. And those stormy eyes of his? They’re locked on Azaic like he’s prey. His gaze flicks down to Azaic’s hand—still brushing my shoulder. Then back to my lips. “Didn’t realize we were entertaining Princes now,” Darius says, voice smooth but laced with venom. “Especially ones who run from real wars and hide behind parties.”

“I’m the bridge.” Kael’s jaw clenched. “And Darius wants to use you to break us. Not unite. Break.” Before she could respond, the chamber trembled. Dust sifted from the ceiling. Runes on the walls flared crimson, not silver. A low, mocking laugh echoed from the stairwell. Darius stepped into the doorway, alone, unarmed, crimson tunic immaculate despite the bloodbath at the stones. His pale blue eyes glittered with triumph. “You’re predictable, cousin,” he said softly. “Always running to your mother’s grave when you’re desperate.”

“A few years later, Darius happened.” The name hits me like a blow to the chest. Heat rushes up my spine. My hands curl without me meaning to. “You’re saying-” I start, and stop because my voice shakes. “I’m saying the magic that cages his wolf is built on my work,” Kael says. “Not inspired by it. Built on it. Same structure. Same logic. Same binding spiral. I am saying… Darius never betrayed you. He had no choice. He didn't forget you of his own volition.”

He kissed me like he only knew, made me forget everything. Past midnight, I finally left his room and walked past one of the dorm rooms to see them in bed. Valira was slammed from behind, as Cordelia was kissing him, his hand touching her naked body. His face turned. Darius, a warlock from the graduating class, is powerful and arrogant. His blond hair fell on one side of his face. He pulled out from Valira and slapped her ass, turned to Cordelia. His arousal hangs. I wanted to giggle.

Darius’ expression changed instantly. The moment shattered. “What is that?” Lyra asked. “Trouble,” he said. Her stomach tightened. “Kael?” Darius didn’t answer. But he didn’t need to. --- Miles away— Kael stood at the edge of his territory, his gaze fixed on the horizon. Dark. Unmoving. “You’re sure?” he asked. The scout nodded. “Yes, Alpha. There’s increased movement around Darius’ territory. Something’s changing.” Kael’s jaw tightened.

"We cannot let him disrupt this night. He knows the power of fear; he'll use it to sow discord among our people." Just then, a sharp cry pierced the air, drawing their attention back to the revelry. Panic erupted as guests scattered, and Chloe and Dean instinctively moved toward the source of the chaos. They arrived to find Alexander and Mira standing protectively over Lily and Elara, facing Darius, who stood defiantly, a wicked grin on his face. "You think you can build a kingdom on love?" Darius sneered, his voice dripping with disdain. "Love is fleeting, but power—power is eternal. I come to claim what is rightfully mine."
