A Taste of my best friend. Chapter 010
The air was thick with tension as the aftermath of the ceremony settled around me like a heavy fog. Though the celebration had been meant to unite us, I couldn’t shake the feeling of unrest that clung to my heart. Elias's warning echoed in my mind, a reminder of the darkness that still lingered in my past.The next day, the sun filtered through my window, casting warm rays across the room. I stretched, feeling the remnants of sleep ebbing away, but the weight of my thoughts was still there, pressing down on me. I couldn’t ignore the promise I had made to avenge my family— to bring down those responsible for their deaths.As I got dressed, determination settled into my bones. I wouldn’t let fear dictate my life any longer. I needed a plan, and I needed allies—people who understood the depths of betrayal and the thirst for vengeance. I had already begun forming connections within the pack, but I knew there was more to do.Downstairs, the scent of breakfast wafted through the air, mingli
A Taste of my best friend. Chapter 011
The aftermath of our confrontation with Elias and Shayla still hung in the air like smoke from a fire that had just died down. It was a tense, fragile calm—one that promised both potential for healing and the threat of further conflict. In the days following our victory, I found myself wrestling with emotions I hadn’t anticipated. I had claimed some measure of justice for my family, yet a part of me felt lost in the aftermath.I leaned against the balcony railing of my room, staring out into the moonlit forest that surrounded our territory. The trees swayed gently in the night breeze, and I inhaled deeply, letting the cool air fill my lungs. I was grateful for the newfound peace, but it was tainted by the uncertainty of what lay ahead. The idea of vengeance had always been clear-cut in my mind, but now I realized it had only scratched the surface of deeper issues.“Selene?” Jax’s voice pulled me from my thoughts. He stepped onto the balcony, the warmth of his presence wrapping around

The sun dipped low on the horizon, casting a warm golden hue over the sprawling grounds of the Salvatore estate. I leaned against the large oak tree at the edge of the property, my thoughts tangled in a web of confusion and regret. My heart still ached from Selene's rejection, a wound that seemed to deepen with each passing moment. I had never expected to feel so lost after being so certain of my feelings for her.“Roy!” The sharpness of Declan’s voice sliced through my thoughts. I turned to see him striding toward me, a scowl etched across his face.“What do you want, Declan?” I asked, annoyance bubbling to the surface. My brother had been a thorn in my side ever since Selene had chosen to stand by Fenriz's side.“You need to stop moping around like a lovesick puppy,” he snapped, crossing his arms over his chest. “You think this is going to win Selene back?”“Maybe I don’t want to win her back,” I lied, forcing a casual shrug. The truth was that my heart was still tangled up in memor

The tension hung heavy in the air as I made my way through the grand hall of the Salvatore estate. Shadows loomed in every corner, mirroring the unease that settled deep in my gut. Fenriz and Selene’s growing bond was not just a personal concern; it was becoming a strategic nightmare for our pack. I could feel the weight of impending conflict, a storm brewing just beneath the surface.“Roy!” Declan’s voice broke through my thoughts as he strode toward me, his expression serious. “We need to talk.”I nodded, my mind racing. “About Fenriz?”“About everything,” he replied, glancing around as if ensuring no one was eavesdropping. “We can’t ignore the signs any longer. The Blue Moon pack is mobilizing, and it looks like they’re preparing for something big.”The realization hit me like a slap to the face. The peace we had fought for was crumbling, and I could feel the anger rising within me. “What do you mean? Are they planning an attack?”Declan nodded grimly. “Word on the street is that F

The dawn broke over the Salvatore estate, casting a warm golden glow that felt almost surreal against the backdrop of the brewing storm. I stood on the balcony of my room, staring out at the horizon where the first light met the encroaching shadows. It was a peaceful morning, but I couldn’t shake the feeling of unease settling deep in my bones. The calm was deceptive, a brief respite before the inevitable chaos would unfold.“Roy?” Selene’s voice drifted through the open door, pulling me from my thoughts. I turned to see her standing there, her hair catching the sunlight, framing her face in a halo of warmth. “You okay?”“Just thinking,” I replied, forcing a smile. “About the meeting last night and what’s coming.”She stepped inside, wrapping her arms around herself as if seeking comfort from the impending conflict. “I can’t believe things have escalated so quickly. It feels like one moment we were just living our lives, and now…”I stepped closer, placing a hand on her shoulder. “I k

I sat at the head of the council table, watching the flicker of uncertainty in every pair of eyes surrounding me. They didn’t trust me. After everything I’d done, every fight I’d led, the bond that once tethered us as a unified pack felt tenuous, like a thread on the verge of snapping. It was the hardest thing to accept—that despite my intentions, the seeds of doubt had been planted. And now, they were growing like weeds in the hearts of my pack.As I shifted my gaze to Declan, he wouldn’t meet my eyes. I had known Declan my entire life; he was not only my Beta but my closest friend, my brother in all but blood. And yet, in that moment, the distance between us felt insurmountable. He knew something was wrong—hell, *everyone* could feel it. I couldn’t tell them the truth. Not yet. Not while everything hung in the balance. I cleared my throat, preparing to address them. “We move at dawn,” I began, the weight of the lie pressing down on me like a heavy cloak. “Fenriz will expect an atta

The sun rose slowly over the horizon, painting the sky in shades of orange and pink. A new day, a new battle ahead. As I stood on the balcony of the Salvatore estate, the crisp morning air filled my lungs, but the taste of dread lingered in my throat. Today, everything would change.I had never felt the weight of leadership like this before. The responsibility of my pack rested heavily on my shoulders, and yet, I had chosen to lead them into a trap. My heart ached at the thought, but I pushed it aside. Selene's life depended on this. She was worth every sacrifice, even if it meant betraying my own.The faint sounds of movement stirred within the estate as the pack began to wake. I turned back to the room, where Selene still slept, her chest rising and falling gently beneath the covers. She looked peaceful, a stark contrast to the storm raging inside me. I wanted to wake her, to hold her, but I couldn’t bear the thought of her questioning me about today’s plan. Not yet.I slipped out o

I could still hear the echoes of the battle resonating in my ears—the shouts, the clash of swords, and the cries of my pack. The smoke from the explosion still hung in the air, choking us and masking the reality of the chaos around us. My heart raced as I frantically searched for Selene, my thoughts spiraling with fear.“Roy!” a voice called out, cutting through the confusion. I turned to see Declan staggering toward me, his face smeared with dirt and sweat, his expression frantic. “We need to regroup! Fenriz won’t give up; he’ll chase us!”“Where’s Selene?” I demanded, my chest tightening at the thought of her caught in the fray. I couldn’t lose her—not like this. “I don’t know! We got separated!” he shouted, panic edging his tone. “But we can’t linger. We have to get everyone to safety!”“Right. Let’s move!” I said, pushing past him as I tried to block out the dread building in my chest. We gathered the remaining pack members, forming a tight unit as we retreated into the woods.As

The dawn broke slowly, bathing the world in soft hues of gold and lavender, as if the universe itself was acknowledging the monumental shift that had taken place. I stood at the edge of the clearing, the remnants of the battle still fresh in my mind, but as the sun rose, so too did a sense of hope within me. The night had been long and filled with uncertainty, but the light now filtering through the trees felt like a promise—a new beginning for my pack, for me. As I took a deep breath, inhaling the crisp morning air, I could feel the weight of the past begin to lift. Fenriz’s reign of terror had ended, and with it, a darkness that had loomed over us for far too long. I turned my gaze toward the horizon, where the sun peeked above the trees, and for the first time in ages, I felt a flicker of excitement. “Selene!” Roy’s voice broke through my reverie, pulling me back to reality. He approached with a warmth that mirrored the sun’s embrace, his face lit with determination. “We need to

The battle had ended, but the echoes of chaos still reverberated through the air. The ground was littered with the remnants of our struggle—broken swords, fallen warriors, and the unmistakable scent of blood. As the last vestiges of the blood moon began to fade, I stood among the wreckage, my heart heavy with the weight of our victory.I looked around at the faces of my pack members, their expressions a mix of exhaustion and triumph. We had fought hard, and the victory was sweet, but it came at a cost. Lives had been lost, and the scars of this battle would run deep. “Selene!” Roy’s voice broke through my reverie, pulling me from my thoughts. He was approaching, his face smeared with dirt and sweat, but the light in his eyes sparkled with pride. “We did it!”I forced a smile, though the weight in my chest made it feel heavy. “Yes, we did. But at what cost?” I gestured to the battlefield, where our fallen lay. “We lost so much.”He stepped closer, taking my hands in his. “We won. Fenr

The air crackled with tension, thick with the scent of blood and sweat. I stood beside Roy, our backs pressed together as we faced the chaos erupting around us. The moon hung low in the sky, casting an eerie glow that painted everything in shades of crimson. It was a blood moon, and its presence felt like an omen of the violence that surrounded us.I had always heard stories about the power of the blood moon, how it brought forth strength and ferocity in wolves. I could feel that energy pulsing through me, igniting my spirit as I prepared to face Fenriz. There was no fear; only a fierce determination to protect my pack and avenge those who had fallen.“Selene!” Roy’s voice cut through the din, grounding me in the chaos. “Stay close!”“I’m not going anywhere,” I replied, my heart racing with adrenaline. With each strike of my sword, I felt the weight of my purpose. Fenriz would not take any more from us. He had already caused enough pain.The sound of clashing steel rang in my ears as
