AARON “The doctor's diagnosis was that the mixture the witches threw in was a combination of dogkill and nightingale serum,” Remus explained. “He said it wasn't a strong dose of dogkill, so it wasn't that harmful, but the affected pack members may be debilitated for a few days,” he continued. We sat in my office, assessing the situation that occurred the night before. He and I took less damage than the rest of the pack. Max was seriously injured because he received most of the scams aimed at his newfound partner, who happened to be Chloe's best friend. What were the chances? “There haven’t been many casualties so far?” I asked my gamma, inspecting the papers the pack doctor had sent me. “Very few, alpha. Just the trackers and warriors who were on guard and Delancy Wilhelm,” he replied. He hesitated. “We still haven’t been able to contact the Blue Moon gang. My guess is that the pack disbanded when Delancy failed in her task.” I was also sure that was the case. So far, our attempts
"Don't be so sure about it, Chloe. You were lucky last night, but that hunter is far from defeated. He's determined to exterminate your kind forever." “My species?” I repeated "Royal members." I hesitated a little with your pronouncement . We already suspected this, but I heard her confirm... “How are you so sure,” I asked her. “I'm a witch, Chloe. And gossip travels quickly among my kind.” She winked at me and rolled up her sleeves. “So, have you mastered any elements so far?” “Element?” I had to ask. What did she mean by that? “As a member of royalty, you have the power to control the elements Earth, wind, fire and water. Once you master all four, you will be the most powerful wolf in all of creation,” she explained. This explains the purple flames and the what you did to Delancy, Rhea butted in. “Does that mean I’ll be able to walk on water and stuff?” I asked, excited by the prospect of being able to do incredible things. She laughed. “Well, I’m not sure about walking on
“So, Mr. Alpha, would you mind explaining to me why you treated my Chloe the way you did when she found out you two were partners?” she asked, taking a sip of her tea. “It was a misunderstanding, but we're getting over it. this,” Aaron said with a serious expression. Are you kidding me! We are not even close to getting over this! “So, is it okay for you to make fun of my little girl, running around with another wolf, harassing her and even threatening to turn her into a renegade? However, you question whether my intentions are sincere or not?” Eleanora's skin tone changed to a pale green. She seemed to be transforming into some unknown creature. Then his eyes turned gold and the house began to shake. Aaron, Remus and I stood up, on guard. What little sunlight came through the windows was quickly covered by rumbling clouds, casting an ominous shadow inside Aaron's office. If not for our enhanced vision, I might not have seen the beast transforming before us. “You were gifted with
CHLOE “Again!” Eleanora shouted, waiting for me to concentrate and go over my training once again. We had been in the backyard of the pack house since dawn. I was completely exhausted. Aaron had come home for dinner as promised, and he and Eleanora had been fighting non-stop ever since. It was like living with two small children who fought for their mother's attention. Even Luna got angry and practically ran out of my house as soon as dinner was finished. After eating, I excused myself and went to bed too. I was completely exhausted as I almost didn't. I slept nothing after the attack and the emotion of meeting. Eleanora this morning made me forget to even rest. So I went to my room, but not before I heard Eleanora tell me that we would begin training before dawn. Here I was now-it's past noon and we only stopped for a quick snack, then continued on. She's trying to show me how to channel my emotions into my powers in a healthy way, but I'm terrible at controlling my feelings
“A little, considering you're the big bad alpha who won't let anyone on your territory. I’m surprised you know someone from outside our lands, especially a human.” She took a sip of her wine, eagerly awaiting my response.“I saved him from a cruel vampire once while I was on patrol. He was in the forest surrounding the territory when he came across those bloodsucking cretins who were invading our area. The smell of blood led me to a cave with no way out. Where they cornered him,” I said, remembering the day I met old Riz.“Blood” had they already started to.. ?”, she asked, to which I shook my head"No. Luckily they didn't catch him. While running from them, he fell from a high cliff and got injured,” I said.“I managed to kill two of them, but the leader of the litter took me by surprise and held me tightly, leaving me unconscious.Fortunately, Max and Remus arrived in time.They t
AARON I didn't expect that... When Chloe came to me, I thought my determination had somehow moved her and she was willing to forgive me, but the burning sensation on my cheek and the ringing in my ears left me dumbfounded. His eyes were filled with hatred and resentment. “YOU ARE OUT OF YOUR MIND,” Chloe roared in complete anger. I must have looked like a fish out of water with my mouth opening and closing, lost for words. “You can’t just say you’re going to hand over your title and position as alpha of the pack because you feel sorry for me! Do you know what that would do to the gang? “What would our enemies do the moment they found out that you have stepped down from the throne of alpha and named yourself an omega? This is almost equal to being kicked out and cast as a rogue! You would be the immediate target of all gangs!” She snorted as she grabbed the collar of my shirt, her weak little hands shaking with rage. “ And... And... I...” I stuttered, still not knowi
“Um...” I said as I looked at his hand that had an iron grip on my wrist. Goosebumps ran down my arm as sparks burned me at his touch.Suddenly, a flash of the day we were together flashed through my head, and I remembered how he had marked me in that moment. My body shuddered involuntarily at the bittersweet memory and he noticed it.He quickly let go of my hand and almost jumped out of his chair as he put distance between us.“Sorry, Chloe, I didn't know it was that time of the month. I swear I’m not willing to touch you without your consent,” he stammered as he spoke.“I usually try to stay away when you're going through this phase. I will leave immediately.I’ll tell Emma and Aspen to come keep you company.” He said as he headed for the door.For some reason, I didn't want him to go. I didn't want him to leave me. He was about to walk out the now open door when I closed it in his face. I go
WOLFANG Last night, I almost had my companion in my arms. For the first time, she was the one who initiated the kiss. If it weren't for that damn witch, we could have done it right there in the passage. I knew she was starting her heat phase. She was giving off a lot of pheromones, but I wanted to believe that she was willing to be with me because she wanted it too. She could have let me go when I was going, right? But she held me and kissed me anyway. After dinner, I decided it would be best for me to leave. Somehow, after the kiss, her heat increased, and the smell was driving Cronnos crazy, making it difficult to control him. Back at the mansion, I had to take a very cold shower to control myself. The next day, I decided to avoid her while she was still in heat and would keep myself stuck in the office. Since she was going through this, I doubted she would even leave the house. She was marked by me and everyone in the village knew she was my mate, but still, as the mating was
**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
