Charles’ POV "Soldiers!" With a mighty shout from Billy, the hundreds of fighters on the training ground rushed to Billy and me. They crowded around us, watching us eagerly, waiting for what we would say next. "I know you've all heard something recently. There was a tragedy in our pack that wa
He immediately bowed. "Yes, Alpha!" I put my arm around his shoulder and clapped, "Oh, man, you just became captain, and our pack had a terrible murder... it's not easy." My action made poor Kevin flinch visibly, but he couldn't hide the smile on his face. "Well, I was just doing my job, but you
Charles’s POV "Ah!" Kevin gave a short cry. His voice sounded strange, as if there was a bone in his throat that could not go up or down. Apparently, he didn't know this was the scene of the previous murder. He felt guilty when he heard what I said. His trembling voice and legs betrayed him. I
Billy’s POV I've been having some hung up these days, and one thing keeps popping into my head. It's like a seed that's about to break out of the ground but still hasn't been exposed. I think about it when I eat, when I brush my teeth, when I take a shower, even when I sleep... ... A few days ag
The words "old Place" made me feel happy for a moment, and then I was tangled up again. She was referring to the South Street Cafe & Bakery on the south side of King's Road, where I used to accompany her. Penelope loved the coffee and food there. When we were teenagers, we used to sit idly in our
Billy’s POV Penelope froze for a second, then lifted her butt out of the chair and quickly sat back down. "Oh my moon goddess..." her long red nails covered her plump lips, "That girl is Amelia!" Her eyes were full of a teasing smile. "Billy, you have unique taste... Oh, I mean, I know her quite
I was shocked beyond words. "Penelope, this is all about you being jealous of Selena!" I shook my head, determined to break her dream. “When are you going to learn the simple truth? Charles doesn't love you! Even if he wasn't married to Selena, he wouldn't love you!” Penelope struggled and broke f
Selena’s POV Under Charles's supervision and care, I rested for a few days. My wounds had mostly healed, leaving only pale pink scars. Dr. Jonny gave me some scar cream and told me to put it on my body every day after I took a shower. I forgot to do this occasionally, but Charles would aggressivel
Selena's POV "Selena, what are you waiting for? Do it!" Charles growled through gritted teeth. I held the scepter steady, its Moonstone pulsing with a fiery red light, coursing through my hands, filling my body with an unbearable force. My eyes locked on Ryan—this man who had shattered my sister
Stella's POV “We’re not true fated mates. I married you only to get the Moonstone.” Ryan’s words hit me like a punch to the gut. The lips that once kissed me, whispered sweet nothings into my ears, now uttered the cruelest truth. The tears stopped. A strange calm settled over me. “What do you
Selena stepped onto the battlefield, the Moonstone Scepter in her grip, leading her Red Moon warriors. The scene was chaos—three packs locked in a standoff. “Selena, you’re here.” Ryan’s voice was almost affectionate, as if they were still allies. But to Charles, freshly wounded and barely stand
Quinn shifted into his wolf form, a flash of gray and white fur streaking through the rain-drenched battlefield, leaping over the heads of the Fjord pack warriors. “Alpha, watch out!” Billy shouted. Charles tried desperately to break through the lingering effects of the wolfsbane, but his wolf,
It was late at night, and most of the soldiers were already preparing to rest for the next day's march. That’s when the flap of one of the tents was pulled open from the outside. Inside, a few disgruntled warriors sat up, their faces twisting with irritation as they spotted the intruders: a bearde
As Charles slipped into Black Valley Pack under the cover of night, he was surprised by how easy it was. No guards stopped him, and the paths to the pack were eerily quiet. It was almost too smooth. Once inside, the reason became clear: the pack was nearly empty. Only a few older warriors were sta
Selena's POV After my chat with Stella, I honestly have no idea how I even made it back to the packhouse. Somehow, I ended up in my room—my little "safe space." Pushing open the door, I was met with quite the sight: Charles, shirtless, checking the bandages around his waist. Even though I’d seen
Selena's POV The first battle had gone smoothly, though some of our warriors were injured. After making sure Charles was settled, he asked me to stay with him a little longer, but I declined. Right now, Red Moon Pack needed me more than anything. I headed to the makeshift hospital where the woun
Third-Person POV “What are the casualty numbers?” Ryan demanded, meeting Quinn the moment he returned to Fjord Pack. Quinn responded with deference, “Black Valley’s losses are much higher than we anticipated. Strangely, Red Moon’s warriors weren’t as weak as we thought—they fought with surprisin
