A hushed silence fell over the crowd as she continued to speak in a low, menacing tone, "But, first, you may now pull and open the envelope stitched into your pockets, and unveil the personalized codenames we have assigned for each you." As if reflexes clouded my mind, my hands reached nervously into pockets, my fingers fumbling as it automatically groped the hidden pocket of my dress. And there inside, I felt a a simple card with cursive etched script urging me to pull it out. The invitation sat heavy in my pocket, as if it was ticket to this masquerade of lies. And as Ruby Fridays, I was... my curiosity got the better of me, and I found myself pulling out the small card with my assigned co

" He had never done that in his life, but this was the first time, for the sake of having a woman named Valerie. The next day, Valerie was ready in her simple office clothes. Dressed to the nines, she left for the office by bus. She traveled on foot to get to the bus stop, where the bus he often rode would pass. After getting on the bus, Valerie immediately took a seat in one of the window seats. She put both handsets to her ears and played a playlist of slow songs while enjoying her journey to the office, which was something Valerie often did to accompany her. She was just a poor Valerie, born to a mother who did not consider her existence. Valerie's mother was a famous model, and her face

She stated, interrupting me. “No, I guess not. But like I explained, I’d happily spend my days never having to interact with her if she left me alone”. “Good point!”. Leo chimed in as he eye-rolled his mother. “What are you doing with your life now, Raven, since you left school?” Alpha Caleb asked. “I go to the college where I study art. I’m a good student and Professor Colin believes I have real potential. I hope to become an art professor myself or even a substitute whilst working at our museum”.

The room fell silent, the weight of the system's response crushing their hopes. Whispers and murmurs fell over the council, a mix of shock and desperation lingering in the air. Then Aethon asked, his voice laced with a hint of hope, "Who can?" Slowly, one by one, pictures appeared on the screen, each one revealing a mighty warrior who could make a difference. The first was a picture of Raven, beautiful and radiant, her pregnancy glowing with an otherworldly light. Aethon's face lit up with pride as he said, "This is my Mate." The council members stared at her image, their eyes wide with wonder, their whispers turning to gasps of amazement. "She is captivatingly beautiful," one of them breath

Nearly three hundred? I knew Valentine was old—he carries himself with that kind of ancient, tired composure—but three hundred? My heart sputters. Valentine’s voice is low, irritated. “We’ve had this conversation before, Mother.” Mother. I peek around the corner, and—oh. She looks just like him. Regal. Pale, impossibly smooth skin. A sharp beauty that isn’t delicate but lethal. She wears deep red, her gown flowing like liquid velvet, and she smells of jasmine. Jasmine and something sharper—blood.

However, I kept quiet and watched and eventually took a glass of water and gulped it down my throat. Annoyingly, she turned back. It was at that point that Alpha Kelly heard her footsteps and raised his head; before he could say a word, she disappeared out of sight. “W..wh..is she?” I eventually found myself asking him. “You don't have to worry about her. What is your name?” he asked, staring into my eyes. “Valera!” I responded in a low, soft voice. “Do you care for a glass of wine?” he asked to reach out to one of the big bottles of colored red water.

Raven replied in a meek voice, her hands trembling in nervousness. She had never attracted attention as huge as this in her entire life. As an introvert, she naturally felt uncomfortable to be under the spotlight. Besides, she had never even met the Luna and Alpha personally before even though they are her best friend’s boyfriend’s parents. “Raven Stein, it is a perfect name for a Luna.” Raven raised her head at them with her eyes wide. Although she is Lorcan’s mate and technically the future Luna of the Moonvalley Pack, there’s no way that Lorcan’s parents would accept her for that position and for their son.

I said curtly, shoving my phone back in my pocket. Her eyes lit up, but there was a flicker of something else—jealousy, maybe, or frustration. She was the school’s queen bee, but her rank couldn’t touch mine. I didn’t care about that right now, though. My attention slid back to Val, who was slipping his phone into his pocket, his face unreadable. “What is wrong with you?” Raven snapped, her voice low but venomous. She followed my gaze, her lips curling into a sneer when she saw Val. “You’re staring at him? That nobody? Are you serious?”

The raven tattoo at her throat was dark against pale skin. The mark beneath it warmed the second I stepped outside. Romy’s eyes flicked toward me immediately, but Valerie kept speaking. “You don’t even try,” she said tightly. “Every dinner. Every meeting. Every room you walk into—you act like all of this annoys you.” Romy stayed still. “You embarrass council members without caring what it costs Rowan afterward. You antagonize allies. You barely participate in pack matters unless someone forces you to.” Valerie laughed softly, bitter around the edges. “And he still stands beside you every single time.”
