The Enchiridion By Epictetus

Rune Leeder has been demoted to a servant since her father was declared a traitor. Her family was taken away from her, and she has to suffer constant bullying from other pack members. She’s sure she’ll live her life like that until she takes her last breath, but the Moon Goddess has something in store for her. Alpha Kane is the most feared Alpha in all the packs; he’s strict, ruthless, and far from happy that his mate is a servant who was demoted for her family’s involvement in treason. He swears she won’t be the Luna of the pack as it poses a threat should her father come out of hiding and decide to destroy the pack his ancestors arrived to build, but he can’t get her out of his mind, neither can he keep his hands to himself when she’s close. **** “Do you really not know, or are you pretending not to know?” Huskiness lingered in his tone. Zarah growled, and I picked up a faint musky scent, earthy and masculine, that became stronger with each passing second. Alpha Kane smirked. Zarah growled again, this time louder. I sniffed and unconsciously pulled Alpha Kane closer to me. The scent rolled off him effortlessly. I shut my eyes and buried my nose in the crook of his neck, sniffing uncontrollably as though my body had a mind of its own. It did. “MATE,” Zarah growled, and my eyes flew open. “Alright, that’s enough,” Alpha Kane peeled my hands off him, an amused smile on his lips.

Cursed by an old magic, Aravia is forced into concealment behind a veil. Her upbringing at The Mage's Sanctuary has left her meek but proving her power. A secret that has yet to be revealed to Aravia will force her and her Master into hiding at the Moonrise pack. The only problem? They don't trust Mages. And although Alpha Aidan has a particular dislike for Aravia, something draws him to her.

She was afraid to fall in love. He never lowered the walls of his heart, afraid to face betrayal. Both were busy chasing away the demons of their sleepless nights not knowing when their lives entangled and they crashed into each other, seeking solace from the treacherous world. Valerie Ambrose bumped into Damon Lysander at a downtown club. Eyes met, sparks flew, heat rose, and they ended up having a one-night stand. _ "I don't have cash on me. I forgot my wallet." He slurred, his crystal blue eyes bloodshot red as he stared directly into my eyes, for a moment I thought he was sober, but then he leaned in and whispered in my ear, his breath fanning my neck. "Now are you still interested?" Although the music was blasting through the speakers, but I caught up on his hidden implication. I shook my head in exhaustion "You're drunk Damon. Come I will drop you home." "I don't want to go back there. It hurts Val." He mumbled dryly, but his moist eyes said it all, and I couldn't help but pity him. When I failed to respond he pressed his lips to the side of my neck and inhaled deeply. "Please don't leave me alone." He was barely audible and looked like a mess, a beautiful mess. "I can't bear this anymore." And with that said, he pressed his lips to mine.

Years passed, the Academy went well. A war that happened five years ago that was forgotten. No one remembers except the Royal Families. Five years have passed, the said princess of the prophecy was never been found. The last magus user of the forgotten Empire in Azaleus, the Zaffiro Empire. The Magic Realm went well but not the other Realm. The Astral Realm, where werewolves exist. In Magic Realm, werewolves are just a myth, it doesn't exist. A myth that everyone knows. Until it happened. Sa kabilang panig ng mundo, nagkakagulo ang mga mamayanan ng Amavasya. Ang Amavasya ang lugar kung saan naninirahan ang mga lobo sa mundo ng Astral. Sa kabilang panig naman ay ang mga itim na mangkukulam ang naninirahan sa lugar ng Hexe. Mainit ang dugo sa bawat panig na naninirahan sa mundo ng Astral. Matagal ng gustong makamit ng mga sorcière ang buong Astral ngunit pilit na nilalaban sila ng mga Lykos. Naging sakim ang mga sorciere lalo na noong nalaman nila ang naka saad sa propesiya na may isang sanggol na may dugong bampira at lobo ang mag hahari sa buong Astral na walang sino mang nilalang ang makakahigit doon. Isang balita na nagdulot sa mga sorciere upang patayin ang mga bagong silang na sanggol. Hindi naniniwala ang mga Lykos sa nasabing propesiya dahil alam nilang hindi totoo ang mga mga bampira, kung totoo man ito alam nilang nasa ibang dimensyon ito at malabo na makapasok sa kanilang mundo. Ngunit nag bago ang lahat ng malaman nilang isang bampira ang binigay ng Diyos ng Buwan na maging kabiyak ng kanilang Alpha. Isang bampira na may dugong bughaw. Pero imbis na itakwil nila ito, tinanggap nila ito ng buong puso at pinangakuang poprotektahan nila ito hanggang sa huling hininga. Ang bampirang lobo sa mundo ng Astral.

Ryleigh didn’t remember being taken—only the cold bite of night and the blur of snarling shadows. Now she was locked in a cell beneath an unfamiliar pack house, her wrists sore, her memories foggy, and her heart pounding with questions. Her parents were dead, she’d just learned she was adopted, and now this—kidnapped by creatures that shouldn’t exist. Werewolves. Real ones. And someone with the initial D had left her a single note: You’re safe. Trust me. – D But safety felt like a lie. Especially after she witnessed a man shift before her eyes.

Her only comfort came from Dr. Derek Blackthorn, the Alpha’s estranged brother, a healer with kind eyes and secrets of his own. In a house ruled by strict laws, bloodlines, and bitter alliances, Ryleigh must survive a world she was never meant to know. One where love could be her only weapon—or her greatest downfall.

📖 Full Synopsis (Professional, 30-Chapter Summary) In a realm where the abyss bleeds whispers into men’s hearts, Aria, a gifted warrior bound to light, finds herself tethered to Lucien, a man scarred by an ancient mark. Their alliance begins in unease but quickly deepens into fragile trust, even as shadows stir within him. As armies clash and kingdoms fracture, Rowan, the enigmatic elder, and Kael, a fierce commander, fight to keep their ranks united. Yet Lucien’s mark grows restless, seeding betrayal, suspicion, and fear. Aria stands at his side, convinced that his humanity can be preserved, while others believe the abyss has already claimed him.
