The Alpha's Prick:Bond By Oath Torn By Fate
"I am your Alpha," Liard growled, his body pressing dangerously close to hers. "You will not run from me."
Helena’s breath hitched, her fingers trembling as they gripped the edge of the infirmary table. "You made a vow," she whispered, voice laced with fury and longing. "No mates. No love. Or have you already forgotten?"
His jaw clenched, but his hands found her waist, heat radiating between them. "I tried to forget. I tried to fight it. But every time I close my eyes, I see you. I feel you." His voice dropped lower, a rough, desperate plea. "Damn it, Helena. You were never supposed to be mine."
Helena shoved against his chest, her own emotions warring within her. "And I was never supposed to love you, Liard. But fate is cruel." She turned away, biting down the pain in her voice. "Do you know what they’ll do to me if they find out? Do you know what Rhider will do?"
Liard’s grip on her tightened. "I don’t care." His breath ghosted against her ear, sending a shiver down her spine. "Let them try to take you from me. I will burn this world before I ever let you go."
*********
For years, Alpha Liard Stormbane has ruled with a heart of ice, swearing never to take a mate, never to fall into the same weakness that destroyed his father. But when he is gravely injured and taken to the pack infirmary, fate shatters his control—his mate is none other than Helena, the pack’s healer…and his Beta’s mother.

Chapter: Chapter Five: Secrets And SinHelena’s POV Liard’s hands were on me, hot, firm and possessive.His fingers traced the curve of my waist, leaving a trail of heat that burned through the thin fabric of my coral nightdress. A low growl rumbled in his chest, vibrating against my skin as he pressed me back against something solid, immovable.A tree? A wall? I didn’t know.All I knew was him, Liard. My Alpha.His lips hovered just above mine, his breath warm, his scent intoxicating. Woodsmoke and something undeniably strong and masculine.My body betrayed me, arching into him. My fingers curled against his bare chest, feeling the ridges of his muscle beneath my palms. His skin was hotter than it should be, his presence too overwhelming, too consuming.“You want this,” he murmured, his voice rough, edged with restraint.I did.Goddess help me, I did.But—No.This wasn’t right.I opened my mouth to say something, to push him away, to deny what my body already knew…But before I could speak, his lips crashed against mine.

Chapter: Chapter Four: The Forbidden PullLiard’s POVSteel met steel.The sound echoed through the training grounds, filling the cool morning with sharp, unforgiving clashes. I was relentless. Strike after strike, I forced my body to move, to attack, to dodge.Sweat dripped down my back. My muscles burned with exhaustion, my hands became raw from gripping the sword too tightly.Good. I felt satisfied Pain was a distraction. Pain reminded me that I was still in control.I launched forward, swinging my blade in a deadly arc. Caelum barely deflected it in time.“Damn it, Alpha,” he panted, taking a step back. “We’ve been at this for hours.”I didn’t stop. I couldn’t stop.I lunged again. Faster. Harder.Caelum barely blocked me, my blade pushing him back with sheer force.His defence faltered.I saw an opening—but at the last second, something stopped me.Lavender and warm honey.The scent hit me like a fist to the chest.My muscles locked. My breath hitched.And in that moment of hesitation, Caelum struck.The flat of his bla

Chapter: Chapter Three: A Wolf's Instincts Liard’s POV "Something isn't right."Caelum’s voice was low, edged with unease as we scanned the dense forest ahead.I felt it too, the weight of the silence, the stillness that did not belong. Crescent Moon’s borders had always been dangerous, but tonight, the air was different.Too quiet. As if it was controlled.Rhider’s hand tightened around his sword. “They’re waiting.”I nodded once, signaling the warriors. We weren’t alone.Then the wind shifted, carrying the scent of blood and sweat.And all hell broke loose.It was a deadly ambush.The first rogue lunged from the trees, his claws glinting under the moonlight.My sword met his strike mid-air, metal screeching against bone. I twisted, driving the blade through his ribs in one clean motion. He crumpled, but more followed.Dozens.They moved in coordinated strikes, their formation too precise for common rogues.This wasn’t a random attack.This was planned.Beside me, Rhider fought like a beast unleashed. His movements were raw,

Chapter: Chapter Two: The Heartless OathHelena’s POV “This is a mistake.”My fingers curled around the edge of the wooden table, my knuckles white as I watched the warriors gather outside.Across from me, Elara, one of the older healers, exhaled sharply as she tied the last bandage around a wounded soldier’s arm.“You think anyone here doesn’t know that?” she muttered, not bothering to look up. “But it’s not about what’s right. It’s about what’s necessary.”I swallowed hard, my gaze drifting back to the open infirmary doors where the entire pack stood in uneasy silence.The coronation was about to begin.And at the center of it all, Liard stood like a man already carved from stone.It was the coronation of a man without a heart.He wore no ceremonial robes, no crown of silver as tradition demanded. Instead, he was dressed for war. A black armor still smeared with the blood of battles lost.It wasn’t just his clothes that spoke of war.It was his eyes.Hollow. Cold. The eyes of a man who had buried his father and all emotio

Chapter: Chapter One: Blood And FireHelena’s POV The scent of blood was everywhere. It clung to my skin, thick and metallic, mixing with the stench of smoke and burnt flesh. The infirmary walls trembled from the force of battle outside, and my hands shook as I tightened the bandage around a warrior’s gashed chest.“Hold still,” I whispered, my voice low and unsteady.The man groaned, his face pale, but I didn’t stop working. I couldn’t. If I let myself think, if I let my mind drift beyond these walls, I’d break.A deafening roar ripped through the night. The ground quaked beneath me.I froze.Through the shattered window, the sky was burning outside, chaos reigned. Women running to get their pups, our warriors fighting like their lives depended on it because It really depended on it.Crescent Moon Pack had fought wars before. We had defended our lands against rival wolves, stood strong against shifting alliances. But this, this was not a war.It was an onslaught.From the infirmary window, I saw beasts of legend descen
