The night came by quickly.

Thorran went back to his own manor, leaving us in temporary housing for the night before we would be shipped off elsewhere in the morning. Drayton and I returned to our rooms after we were fed dinner in the Assassin's building which had once been where the trainers resided. It was beyond awkward sitting with them all.

They talked between themselves about things I wasn't clued in on. Drayton kept to himself on the other end of the table and I did the same. I kept my head down, eating my dinner quickly before running back to my room.

Looke, or Blue wasn't at dinner. Naturally, I'm assuming Thorran has found out and is sending him into the depths of prison right now. Or something like that.

I really really hope that's not the case.

Once I made it back to my room, I closed my door and fell onto my bed. Today has been a long day. I found out I won this entire competition right next to Drayton, and that an old friend of mine is here for me. Why exactly, I sti

    I didn't have time to question my dreams the next day. A Assassin whose name I don't know knocked on my door and demanded I get up and met everyone on the front field. I barely had time to get myself together, throw my hair into a ponytail before I grabbed my things and left. Once I closed the door to my room, I realise this is the last time I'll be here. The last time I'll know what is coming next. I didn't see Drayton on my way there, which is a small mercy. Now I'm assuming he's going to try stay far away from me after I tried to find out more about his past. I'm going to take a step back now. He's not the important one. As I walk down the hallway, Thorran lingering on my mind, I can almost feel myself being watched. Not in person though, but something beyond, watching my every move and waiting for me to make a mistake. It was no coincidence that Shinee haunted my dreams last night. All the Assassin's stood in a group when I made it to the field. They all turned to look at me

    I couldn't get to Looke from here. Everyone crowded around him, asking him where he has been. He must be fairly popular if everyone is so interested in where he has been. Of course, they refer to him as Blue, the name he has gone by thus far as a Assassin. It reminds me to keep my mouth shut on what I know and others don't. So without anyone noticing me, I back away from the group and slink back to my tent. When I glance over my shoulder Thorran is watching me, but luckily he doesn't question it, most likely assuming I'm just tired. As I zip up my tent and crawl under my blankets, I plot my plan within my head. There is no way I'm sleeping through the night without finding out where Looke has been. So I wait. With time, I can hear everyone else getting into their tents, conversations outside starting to cease. When all is quiet, I slowly sneak out, the grass slick with dew wetting my hands and knees before I get to my feet. Looking around the campsite, I see an unfamiliar tent t

    Looke paid me no mind the next morning.We packed up all our belongings and started our walk again. Looke didn't come near me, and I didn't come near him. He walked at the front of the group and I stuck to the back, trying to think of how to deal with this. Should I tell someone and get him removed from the Assassins, or should I keep it to myself?It doesn't seem right to tell Thorran about it. He sacrificed everything for me. I might not agree with why he did it, and how he feels now about me, but I can't have his entire career taken from me because of a crush.I look at him up front as we walk. His head is down, staring at his feet. Everyone around us is oblivious to what happened last night. It's decided.I'll just avoid him.We were walking through the brush, pushing it out of our faces when suddenly something hit my ankle from behind, making me stumble forward and nearly fall. I managed to catch myself on the bough of a tree last minute.

    I'm not sure how I'm going to win this.Zara stands in front of me, his grin confident already. She has trained most of her life as an Assassin, which translates to I have no chance. Everyone cheers around, some throwing bets around, obviously in Zara's favor. If I could turn back now, despite the deal we have, I would, but there is no way the crowd will have it."So, do you accept?" she questions, cracking her knuckles. I don't pay attention to her intimidation tactics. I know this is going to hurt, and she doesn't need to prove that to me. "Tell me you accept.""Yes, I do," I say quickly. She knows I don't have much of a choice, even as excitement flickers in her eyes.I'm dead.Glancing around me, I take one last look around me for some help. The crowd surges, so I don't see Looke, who I know is around here. If he wanted to get me out of this, he would have stepped in already. Especially as a senior Assassin. He is clearly leaving me to suffer and ask for revenge for turning him do

    I didn't get any sleep that night.Sitting up in bed, I rocked back and forth, wondering whether I was stuck in a dark, cruel dream or not. It doesn't seem real when I think about all the small details of it. Being mates with an Alpha doesn't even seem in the realm of possibility. I've thought about how much I've hated him before throughout my teenage years, however, unlike the rest of the girls in school, I never considered being mates with him.Thoughts raced through my head about how Thorran would react to this. I mean, if I told him how I found out, he wouldn't be happy. But would he be happy if he found out we were mates? Or does he have too much on his plate already?Morning took eternity to come. The moment the sun rose through my open window, I snuck out, not wanting to confront him until I've collected my thoughts.This is a lot to deal with.Not to mention, the injuries my face has sustained from the fight. I will have to put off seeing Thorran if I can for at least a week w

    My fingers burned just touching it.Looking around, I try again to see through the trees to see who had made the shot, deciding to have me see the letter rather than anyone else. Maybe it's because I'm the only one standing here, or if they had shot, but regardless, whoever they may be, they have disappeared into the forest, not coming back.Was it really Thorran's mother? The thought makes me shiver. If so, she found Thorran's private institute and is using me as a messenger to get her note to Thorran. I'm just not sure why they chose me.Looking down at the note, I consider what to do next. There is no way I can keep this from Thorran, as curious as I am to look at it.I can't do that.The last thing I want to do right now is see Thorran. Not with these injuries littering my face with no explanation that won't get me in trouble. However, this might be the first contact he has had with his mother, who the entirety of the Discipline Pack believes died in an accident along with his fat

    It wasn't as if I had much of a choice.It wasn't as if I was going to tell Thorran no. Not when he has been so kind to me, and not when I know he is my mate. Maybe on this trip I can find out how to tell him. First, I need to know how I'm going to deal with it, since being the Luna of the Discipline Pack doesn't appeal to me so much.I'm not going to lie about being nervous about how Thorran will react, either. He doesn't seem like he wants a companion, despite how nice as he's been to me. Maybe he will cast me out, or send me back to the prisons to hide me and my secret from the public.The thought makes me shiver. EIther way, I have to face this problem one way or another. There is no escaping a mate bond.It's my fate, after all.Thorran crosses the room in front of me after I agreed. I'm hoping to prove to him he can trust me. That I'm not going to go out and tell anyone about his mother, and the fact that she is still alive. That means as curious as I am about why she went missi

    We departed that afternoon, ready for however many days we might be out there.Looke didn't agree to come right away until Thorran demanded it and he noticed Alpha Archer was also coming. Naturally, he wants to impress the other Alpha, putting his hatred toward me aside. If hatred is even the right word. It sure seems like he feels that way, with the way he ignores me and almost seethes in my presence.Drayton seems nervous about coming, but would never disobey Thorran. Neither of the two Assassin's know anything about what we are doing. All Thorran told them was that they were tracking something, and they were there for backup only.I'm just pleased Thorran trusts me enough to bring me along. It's important he trusts me. Especially since we are mates, and I'm planning to tell him on this trip.Hopefully, we will get some time alone.Archer walks at the front of the group, tracking in a way I don't understand and he hasn't been willing to talk about yet. Looke is behind him, avoiding

  • ALPHA GOD   Chapter 63: The Unsettling Prophecy

    As dawn’s first light crept over the horizon, casting long shadows across the Stonevale forest, an unearthly silence settled over the camp. Rayka and Sylvester could feel the weight of Bael’s betrayal bearing down on them. Their alliance with Stonevale was more fragile than ever, and the threat of the Steelclaws loomed dangerously close. Just as they were about to join Thorne for a strategy meeting, an elder wolf, bent and cloaked in heavy robes, shuffled into their path. “Alpha Rayka, Alpha Sylvester,” the elder rasped, her voice as brittle as dry leaves. Rayka blinked, taken aback. She hadn’t seen this wolf before; her fur was a grizzled silver, and her eyes were clouded with age. She leaned heavily on a twisted cane, her steps slow but deliberate. Sylvester tensed, recognizing her as a seer—a figure of reverence and mystery among the packs, rumored to carry glimpses of the past and future. The elder’s gaze fixed on them, though her eyes seemed to look beyond, as if she saw things

    The atmosphere in the Stonevale territory was tense, the air filled with the weight of recent battles and hard-won alliances. Rayka and Sylvester had just returned from a skirmish with the Steelclaws, the relief of victory tempered by a newfound alliance with Stonevale. It had taken all their strength and diplomacy to secure this partnership, and now that they had it, they knew the cost of failure was even higher.Rayka sensed the underlying unrest even as they met with Thorne and his senior advisors, sitting around a council fire deep within the Stonevale woods. Stonevale’s warriors watched with wary eyes, their trust in the Moonshadow Pack still fragile, and rightly so. Only days earlier, their neutrality had been threatened, and whispers of betrayal still lingered.As the meeting began, Thorne addressed the tension, his voice somber. “It has come to my attention that some of my own pack members are not entirely pleased with our alliance. Their discontent runs deeper than I realized

  • ALPHA GOD   Chapter 61: A New Alliance

    As dawn broke over the Moonshadow territory, a renewed sense of purpose filled the air. Rayka and Sylvester had spent the last few days recovering from the battle, but they knew that rest would have to wait. The Steelclaws’ persistent threat lingered, and they had only narrowly managed to hold their ground. Now, they needed something more—a definitive edge that could help them secure the future of their pack.Rayka looked at Sylvester as they stood on a ridge overlooking the northern forest. “We can’t keep fighting like this, Sylvester. We need allies—someone strong enough to counterbalance Mordaen’s forces.”Sylvester nodded, his gaze scanning the horizon. “Agreed. The question is, who can we turn to? Most of the nearby packs have already chosen a side, either with us or the Steelclaws.”Rayka's eyes sharpened with resolve. “Then it’s time we approach a neutral pack.”There was only one group that had the power and resources to truly tip the scales in their favor. Known as the Stonev

    The day had dawned with a clarity that brought both hope and trepidation to Rayka and Sylvester. As they prepared to leave for the council meeting with the neighboring packs, the weight of their responsibilities pressed down on them, thicker than ever. The looming threat of the Steelclaws remained, but today was a pivotal moment—one that could shape the future of the Moonshadow Pack and their allies.Rayka paced the small tent that had become a temporary command center for their operations. Maps sprawled across a table, markers indicating pack territories and possible routes of Steelclaw incursions. Sylvester stood by the entrance, scanning the horizon as if anticipating trouble. “We need to ensure that our presence is felt at this council,” Rayka said, her voice steady but charged with urgency. “If we can unite our packs against the Steelclaws, we can show them that they’re outnumbered and outmatched.”Sylvester nodded, his brow furrowed in thought. “But

    The first light of dawn filtered through the dense forest surrounding the Moonshadow Pack’s territory, casting a soft, golden glow over the settlement. After the tense confrontation with Gareth, Rayka and Sylvester felt the enormity of their responsibilities settle more heavily on their shoulders. The betrayal, while quelled for the moment, had shaken the foundation of trust within the pack. As leaders, they were expected to restore stability and protect the pack’s future, yet they knew it wouldn’t be easy.For days, the atmosphere was tense but hopeful. The pack’s loyalty had been tested and reaffirmed, but the whispers of unrest and doubt hadn’t entirely vanished. The Steelclaws, though momentarily pacified by Gareth’s removal, were a looming threat. Everyone sensed that the balance of power was fragile, and one misstep could bring everything crashing down.Rayka awoke that morning with a quiet resolve. She gazed over at Sylvester, who was already awake and watch

    The tension following Gareth's bold challenge hadn’t yet dissipated. The air in the Moonshadow Pack's clearing was still charged with the emotions from the confrontation, with every pack member on edge, their loyalty now a silent declaration that spoke volumes. Rayka and Sylvester knew they had to act fast to prevent Gareth’s divisive rhetoric from gaining more traction. But amid the turmoil, an unexpected turn of events brought a ghost from their past back into their lives.That night, as Rayka and Sylvester retired to the strategy room, Calder and Lara followed close behind. The four of them had spent the past few days planning every angle, every possible step they could take to neutralize Gareth’s influence without alienating the pack members who had started listening to his promises. But as they were poring over the details, there was a soft knock at the door, a knock that resonated oddly in the quiet of the stronghold. Rayka exchanged a look with Sylvester be

    The cool night air was thick with tension as Rayka and Sylvester paced outside the stronghold, each lost in thought, the echoes of Gareth’s defiance still ringing in their ears. The sparring display was more than a challenge to their authority—it was an open invitation to rebellion. It was only a matter of time before the pack’s younger, more ambitious members began questioning the leadership they had fought so hard to secure. Sylvester clenched his jaw, his hand reaching out instinctively to rest on Rayka’s shoulder. “We can’t let Gareth’s influence spread any further. He’s planting seeds of dissent, and they’re taking root faster than we anticipated.” Rayka nodded, her gaze fixed on the dark expanse of trees stretching beyond their territory. “He’s smart, I’ll give him that. He knows exactly what to say to stir doubts, especially with the younger wolves. They haven’t seen the battles we’ve fought or the sacrifices we’ve made. To them, Gareth’s promise

    The sun bathed the vast expanse of the Moonshadow Pack’s territory in a golden glow as Rayka and Sylvester stood on the ridge, overlooking their home. The once-constant tension of leadership and impending danger had subsided for now, replaced with the quiet hum of daily life. It had been months since the final confrontation that secured their leadership and family’s future, yet the journey ahead remained far from simple. Rayka placed a gentle hand on her stomach, where the last remnants of her pregnancy had passed into memories, and now a small, healthy child awaited them at the stronghold. She could hardly believe how much had changed. The responsibilities of parenthood had transformed her, as much as it had strengthened her bond with Sylvester. Together, they had led the pack through political upheaval and personal sacrifice, and now they faced a new era—a balance of power and family, peace and vigilance. “Are you ready for another day of juggling diplomacy and diaper changes?” S

    The first rays of dawn broke over the mountains, casting a golden hue across the landscape as the Moonshadow Pack stirred to life. The morning chill hung in the air, but within the stronghold, a different kind of cold had settled in—one borne of uncertainty and lingering tension. Rayka stood at the window of their chambers, watching the sun creep over the horizon, her thoughts a tangled web of worries and plans.In the weeks since the scout had returned with news of a rival pack forming alliances, Rayka and Sylvester had been tireless in their efforts to fortify the pack, both in strength and strategy. Every move they made now was crucial—one misstep, and everything they had fought for could come crashing down. The safety of their child, their leadership, and their future hinged on how they navigated this delicate time.Behind her, Sylvester stirred awake, his arm reaching out instinctively for Rayka before he realized she was already out of bed.
