And trying to shut up Cronnos, who was still barking about me ruining his chance at love. I decided to take up patrol duty tonight to get her out of my head, but I couldn't stop thinking about those beautiful gray eyes staring at me sadly. — She's out here! I can feel it! — Cronnos started screaming in my head. —What the fuck are you talking about, you old fleabag? I asked my wolf. Then a sweet smell entered my nostrils. I would recognize that smell anywhere. Was her... Chloe was here. But what was she doing so far from home at this time of night? It wasn't safe to run without protection. Anger rose inside me. What the fuck was she doing here in the woods, near the border, alone? - Who cares?! Find her before something happens to her! — Cronnos screamed in my head. I ran toward her scent—anxiety increased as I realized the scent was stronger near our pack border. I arrived at a clearing. Right next to the lake sat a beautiful wolf with fur as white as snow and eyes that spar
I lifted my head and looked at him, perplexed. - What? — I asked, shock written all over my face. — I'm not going to reject you yet, Miss Craton. I have other plans for you. But you won't tell anyone in the village that we are partners. As I said before, if you do this, I will deny it. And I will brand you, and whoever you say, as renegades. With that, he turned his back on me once again. - Come back home. It's too late for a simple omega wolf like you to be here alone,” he said. And he disappeared into the bushes, leaving me there, dazed and hurt. What did he want with me? ** ** Chloe I returned home feeling completely defeated. I could feel exhaustion taking over my body. I thought this is what happens when you turn into a wolf for the first time without having eaten a decent meal in the last **** hours. Now that I stop to think about it, I wasted two days in a row crying non-stop, all because of my supposed soulmate. I walked through the door and almost fell back when som
I turned to look at the only familiar figure I had left. “I don't want to leave you alone,” I told her. And it was true. Even though Montana and I didn't always see eye to eye, she was the one who raised me and took care of me after my father died. “I'll be fine, honey. I'm sure the alpha will allow us to meet. I highly doubted that. — I'm sorry, darling. But we must hurry,” Luna interrupted us. I ignored her and continued looking at aunt. “It's going to be okay, Chloe,” Montana said. — Go ahead and pack your things. We don't want to make the alpha angry. I thought about it. Make that man angry. What difference would it make? He was always irritated. Even so, I shook my head and went up to my room to pack my things, collecting everything I would need, before leaving the place I always called home. As soon as I finished packing my things, I went downstairs and caught part of the conversation between Luna and Montana. —He accused her of stealing yesterday! Why does he want he
Chloe — Okay, honey, here we are. Your new home,” Luna said as we walked down the huge hallway that led to the stairs. We find beta and gamma at the end of the steps. — She's finally here! — shouted the blond. He walked over and picked up my suitcase. — Welcome, Chloe. I look forward to meeting the girl who caught our alpha's eye,” he said, holding out his free hand. — Um, hi, beta Maximus. — I tried to bow, but I was stopped halfway down. — You don't need to be so formal with me. You can call me Max.” He gave me a wink, but was pushed away by Gamma. — You've introduced yourself enough, Max. The girl must be scared enough without your flirting. Miss Craton, I'm Remus Bowman. Welcome to the leader's house. He pushed his glasses up as he spoke, a blunder. “Th-thank you, Gamma Bowman,” I replied, bowing my head. — The alpha requested you as a personal maid. Your room is next door to his,” he said. - There is? — I gaped, but he ignored my shock and continued talking. — You will
I suspected there would be no point in arguing with her about dinner, so I just sighed and nodded. — Arrange your room however you like. I'll come and check on you later, honey,” Luna said. — Thank you, Luna. The elderly woman left, leaving me alone in the huge room, which was decorated with pastel paint and white decorations. In the center, there was a queen size bed with simple white sheets. On one of the walls there was a small fireplace lit to keep the room warm. Next to the bed was a lovely white chair where I could imagine myself reading. And, right behind the chair, there was a glass door with thick curtains that led to the balcony. On the wall opposite the bed, there was a huge TV installed between two doors, hanging above the chimney. The first door opened into a spacious bathroom, which had a beautiful marble bathtub and a shower next to it. The wall had a huge mirror, and the counter was long enough to seat four people. The second door must have been a closet. Each
Since Alpha Aaron took command of our pack, he has a duty to win over as many allies as possible, in order to end the war with the renegades. “Yes,” she sighed. — In other words, we have to put up with Delancy and her quirks. Until later. — She said goodbye and left the room. Delancy Wilhelm. Daughter of the Blue Moon pack's alpha, Colt Wilhelm. She was the epitome of elegance, with her beautiful tanned skin and long, luminous blonde hair. Like her father, she exuded power. The two sides worked together to end the war against the renegades. Renegades generally don't work together. That is, after the battle between the great Alpha Gudolf, Aaron's father, and the leader of the renegades Jacques Roulette, who secretly managed to gather a band of renegades from across the continent. They dominated the warriors of our pack, killing my father, who was the gamma at that time. Alpha Gudolf managed to kill Jacques, but Klaus, Jacques' son, defeated our alpha. Aaron was on the battlefiel
Everyone resumed what they were doing. I followed Luna's instructions and arrived at a beautiful rose garden. The scent was incredible. — It's so beautiful here, Chloe! — Rhea exclaimed in my head. — Yes. Yes, — I thought, as I looked around looking for a place to take off my clothes in secret, so no one would see me naked. Being a wolf, you should get used to people seeing you without clothes all the time. It's normal, since we have to be naked to transform. But I wasn't ready for that yet. I walked around the yard until I reached the edge of the forest. I took a quick look behind me and ran to the biggest oak tree I could find. I took off and folded my clothes carefully, then put them in a small squirrel hole, covering them with a layer of dry leaves. I mentally prepared myself for the excruciating pain I felt last time, but this time it was bearable. Sooner than I imagined, I was in my wolf form. — Very good, Chloe! You're starting to get the hang of it. — Rhea praised me.
As if she could reject me. I stared at her, watching as she was startled by something. She stood up and I saw her lower her head. That's when Max appeared, walking towards him. Anger exploded inside me. Why the hell were the two of them out there alone at this hour? I left just in time to catch the last part of the conversation. —... You're a super hottie, — I heard my beta say to my partner. My anger grew. — You already have ****, right? The guy who becomes your partner will be super lucky. — Max continued. I felt a sudden pang in my chest and guilt took over me. Did I underestimate this girl thinking she was totally into me? - YES! — Cronnos screamed in my head. My anger kept increasing Of course. She was an omega wolf. It would be a joke if I introduced her as the future Luna of our pack. I was about to get out of there when I heard Chloe speak. — Do you think Alpha Aaron would mind if I got some of these roses to put in my room? she asked innocently. Max sh
**Chloe"You may have power, Wendell," I said, "but I have something you'll never understand. I have loyalty, love, and the strength of my pack behind me." With a roar, Wendell attacked me, his eyes blazing with fury. But I held my ground, ready to face him head-on.We clashed, each of us using all our strength to gain an advantage. Wendell was a formidable opponent, but I refused to back down. As we fought, I could feel Rhea vibrating in my chest. She was eager to join the battle, eager to sink her teeth into our enemy.Finally, Wendell stumbled, and I saw my chance. With a flick of my wrist, I sent a fireball at him. It hit him square in the chest, and he fell to the ground, writhing in agony. I approached him cautiously, my heart heavy with the knowledge of what I had done. I never wanted to kill, but sometimes the only answer to evil is to end it."Why, Wendell?" I asked, my voice softening. "Why did you do all this?" He looked at me, his eyes filled with pain."My family," he sa
AARON"Rory!" I shouted, following behind. I wasn't going to let her face the witches alone! But the witches weren't doing anything. Instead, they just looked at her with confusion in their eyes."Who are you?" one of them asked."It was me who put an antidote vial in your dinner and made it taste bland. I'm sorry for that," she straightened her shoulders. "Wendell was poisoning you.""I knew it," said the witch we heard seconds ago. "Poison ivy and nightshade."Chloe nodded breathlessly. "We have more antidote. We can give it to you and help your kind heal." The witches were now listening attentively."All I ask is that you return to our pack mansion and help us. We're under attack by Wendell and his hunters. We need your strength.""What do we gain from this? Otherwise, you won't give us the antidote?" Chloe threw our entire stock to them. I almost shouted, but I kept my composure."That's yours," she said. "I would never hide it from you. You deserve to be whole. I just want you to
The trees seemed to close in around me, their branches twisting and turning like gnarled fingers. The air was thick with the smell of damp earth and decomposing leaves. A low-lying mist hovered, obscuring my vision and making navigation on the winding path ahead challenging. It was as if the forest were alive, watching every move I made, waiting for me to let my guard down.A strange energy pulsed in the air, a low, almost inaudible hum impossible to ignore. Sometimes, the mist would dissipate, revealing glimpses of strange and deformed trees that seemed to have been shaped by ancient magic.Whispers in the wind, voices that seemed to call my name. It was as if I had stumbled upon a secret world, a place where the veil between the living and the dead was thin and permeable.The sun began to set, casting long shadows on the forest floor. "Let's camp here," Aaron whispered, uneasy. "It would be imprudent to hunt witches in the middle of the night." Nodding, I anointed the grass around h
ChloeThe trees towered above me, their branches stretching towards the sky. The scent of wildflowers filled the air. But as I ventured deeper into the forest, a sense of unease crept over me. Perhaps exploring alone wasn't such a good idea.I froze; my heart raced as a branch snapped in the undergrowth. I waited to see what would emerge. Then, without warning, a massive black wolf emerged from a bush and advanced straight toward me. With my heart pounding, I braced for the worst. But as the wolf approached, it stopped and looked at me with a gentle, almost human-like light in its eyes.Before I could react, it turned and disappeared into the depths of the forest. What was that? What just happened? My mind was a maze as I returned to the castle.I walked down the corridor towards the east wing, excitement building in my chest. Whatever happened, the library had become my sanctuary. I couldn't wait to explore the opulent space, rich in history and knowledge.Passing through the heavy w
The world was bathed in a golden light, and there, at the end of what seemed to be a vast meadow, were my mother and Selene, holding hands. I approached them, my heart full of admiration."Good job." My mother smiled. "We knew you could do it."Selene clapped her hands. "And now, because you believed, you've opened yourself to the greatest gift of all." My eyes gleamed as she handed me a ring with a unique moonstone."Whenever times get tough, dear daughter, plant your lips on this stone," she whispered, placing the ring on my index finger. This will connect your heart to mine through a silvery thread.I was momentarily blinded by the ring's glow, then my mother tenderly kissed my forehead. In this realm, she was very tangible."It's time for you to go."I looked at her eagerly, savoring every little detail. I had to store her in my memory, to cling to every bit of beauty her form contained."I wish I could take you with me." This was the child in me, saying things that reflected the
AaronRory dragged me away before I could say anything else to Eleanor, or mistreat her, just to be sure. She waited until we were in our room."What was that?" she growled. "How did you know what we were talking about?"I shuffled my feet. I didn't want her to know that I had mentally connected with her without her consent. But she had been so down in the past few days that I just wanted to know if I could help. She interpreted my silence as the worst."When are you going to stop playing?" she shouted at me, clenching her fists. "Whenever you stop this madness," I retorted. "Are you insane? How can you think that death is the answer? That witch is lying to you."Chloe turned towards the door, ready to storm out in anger. I grabbed her hand and pulled her towards me."Please, Rory, please, listen to me.""Just leave me alone."**The annual Iliamna fair was in full swing as I walked through the bustling crowd, still weighed down by the last encounter with Chloe. The aroma of fried doug
He responded with calm determination, his eyes never leaving mine."You're weak, Aaron," I spat. "If you run, it means you're choosing your own life over hers. You're not a true alpha!"Aaron's eyes gleamed, and he growled, "I am a true alpha.""And I will never leave Chloe. She is my mate, my love, my everything."We continued to fight, our bodies colliding and exploding with ferocity. The forest trembled with the strength of our magic and limbs, and the air was thick with the smell of sweat and blood.Suddenly, we were interrupted by a voice, and we both turned to see Chloe standing behind us, her eyes wide with fear and confusion."Stop this! Both of you! This isn't helping anyone!"Aaron and I halted, our eyes still locked on each other. Slowly, we lowered our hands, and the magic dissipated. We stood in silence, panting, our bodies tense and ready to fight.Chloe took a step forward, her eyes moving from me to Aaron and back. "What's happening?" she asked, her voice trembling.Aa
"So, you might want to return this baby to where she belongs." I sighed, exhausted. "What's wrong with these hunters, Kala? How can they separate children from their homes?"Her voice trembled as she replied, "Heartless, that's what they are."I nodded. I had more business to take care of. — "I'll trust you to ensure she gets home safely. Do you know where Eleanor is?""I saw her heading towards the northern edge of the forest, Alpha. She seemed determined to walk by moonlight. She's funny."I growled in frustration. The last thing I wanted to do was wander through the forest now. I wanted to be with Chloe. Cronnos suffered for her, and so did I. But I needed this to happen too. Because what if this was the antidote? What if this could help bring the witches' collective to our side? It would be a significant victory against Wendell.I looked at my clothes. Sure enough, I had the baby's hair on my shirt. Well, the final ingredient, ready.So, I gathered the ingredients and headed to th
She was all alchemy, magic flying at the tips of her fingers, her touch was fire and soul. I pulled her close and kissed her back, letting my tongue dance against hers. Our hands rose to embrace each other, mine firmly entwined around her waist. She sighed my name. Before I realized it, I laid her down on the ground, and my lips were on her nose, eyes closed, forehead and neck, traveling up to the delightful curves of her chest."I love you," I murmured against her neck, lovingly licking the place where I marked her as mine. "I love you today, tomorrow, and in a thousand other universes.""Well, isn't that touching?" The mature and melodious voice sounded as if someone had stabbed a knife into a stone. I gritted my teeth and sat up.Chloe seemed visibly disturbed. "Eleanor! I thought you had retired for the night."She looked from her to me, disapproval and a strange gleam in her eyes. "Yes, but the night was so beautiful that I felt like a walk was in order."Why did she always have
