I felt a surge of anger building up inside me as I watched her intently. She was staring at him while he cooked, and a familiar sense of irritation took hold. I didn’t like the way they were looking at each other, nor did I appreciate the way she smiled at him.

The sight of her expression only fueled my anger. “So, you really like this, huh? A man who can cook for you and do things that you enjoy?” I asked sharply.

She turned to me, confusion evident on her face. “I don’t mean it like that,” she said quickly. “I just think it’s nice that he can do things on his own and isn’t just waiting around for someone else to do them for him.”

“So you think the others can’t do things for themselves?” I interrupted, not giving her a chance to finish. She tried to clarify, but I wasn’t in the mood to listen. Instead, I grabbed an apron and tied it around myself, ready to jump into the situation.

“Let me show you what a real man can do in the kitchen,” I said with determination.

    Otsana "You absolutely have to teach me how to make this dish! I need to know the recipe because it tastes just incredible," I exclaimed, savoring every single bite as the flavors danced on my tongue. Alec chuckled softly, watching me with a look of amusement in his eyes as I devoured the meal with enthusiasm. His gaze lingered on me longer than I expected, and I suddenly felt a bit self-conscious. Was I eating too fast? Did I have something on my face? Or maybe I was doing something wrong that I hadn’t noticed? "Is everything okay?" I asked, unable to hide the growing unease I felt under his steady, almost intense, stare. He shook his head slightly and smiled. "Don't worry about it. I'm just... fascinated, I suppose. It's not often I see someone enjoying my cooking this much." I couldn't help but laugh, finding it hard to believe that anyone wouldn't appreciate his culinary skills. "You must be joking! This is absolutely amazing," I said, my voice filled with genuine admiration.

    ~Ralph At that moment, I felt completely lost. The weight of everything that was happening was pressing down on me, threatening to crush me under its sheer force. The situation was spiraling out of control, and despite all the power I wielded as the alpha, I felt helpless. There was only one person I could think of who might be able to help, and the thought of relying on him made my stomach turn. Alec, with that insufferable grin plastered across his face, sat down across from me. It was as if he was enjoying my misery, relishing the fact that I was now the one coming to him. The smug look in his eyes made me want to rip him apart, but I couldn’t afford to let my emotions get the better of me. I had to play this carefully. “What’s up?” he asked casually, as if we were old friends catching up over drinks instead of facing a life-and-death crisis. His nonchalance only fueled my anger, but I forced myself to remain calm. Losing my temper wouldn’t do me any good right now. I glanced ov

    ~Otsana "A day into the Rogue attack" I felt my heart racing as I ran through the forest, with Kate by my side. The sounds of battle echoed around us as the rogues attacked our pack. I could hear the snarls and growls of the enemy wolves, their vicious attacks on my fellow pack members. I knew I had to find somewhere to hide, but where? Every direction I turned seemed to lead to danger. I looked at Kate, her eyes wide with fear. "We have to find somewhere to hide," I whispered, my voice shaking. "They're everywhere." We ran deeper into the forest, branches and leaves scratching at our faces as we tried to escape the chaos. The sounds of battle grew more distant, but I knew the rogues were still close. Suddenly, I heard the rustling of leaves behind us. I spun around, my heart in my throat. There, standing just a few feet away, was a rogue wolf, its fur matted with blood. I let out a scream and stumbled backward, tripping over a root. As I fell, I caught a glimpse of the rogue lun

    ~Ralph The tunnel was darker and more foreboding than I had ever imagined. Shadows seemed to swallow the dim light from the flickering torch I held, leaving everything else in a thick, oppressive blackness. Each step echoed ominously against the damp walls, a constant reminder that danger could be lurking in any corner. I was thankful I had brought Callan with me—his presence behind me provided a small comfort in this eerie place. He had stayed close throughout our journey, silent but steadfast. There was no other light but our torch, no sound but our breathing and the distant, unsettling whispers that seemed to come from the walls themselves. The uncertainty of time gnawed at me; I couldn’t tell whether it was day or night anymore. The darkness in the tunnel was all-consuming, leaving me disoriented. "Alpha," Callan's voice broke the silence. I turned to face him, curiosity mixed with a hint of irritation. "What is it, Callan? Don’t tell me you’re thinking of backing out now," I s

    ~Otsana I gazed up at the faint sliver of sunlight that pierced through the small peephole in my dungeon. It was a cruel reminder of the world outside, a world I hadn’t seen for nearly three days. My throat burned with thirst, and my stomach twisted painfully with hunger. It felt like an eternity since I had tasted food or water, and my strength was rapidly fading. Cabin, the man who held me hostage, was a monster. That much I knew for certain. The mere thought of him filled me with a deep, seething hatred. He was the kind of man I couldn’t stand to be around for even a second. The resentment I harbored for him was overwhelming, and it only grew with each passing hour in this miserable place. Suddenly, the heavy door to the dungeon creaked open, and I squinted against the sudden influx of light. My heart skipped a beat when I saw who stood in the doorway. It was Callan and Jasper. Relief surged through me at the sight of them, but a pang of disappointment followed when I realized R

    ~Otsana It's been two days since Ralph returned, and I couldn’t shake the persistent urge to check on him. I didn’t exactly know why. It wasn’t like he cared about my sympathy or would even acknowledge it, but the need lingered. Maybe it was my subconscious trying to connect with him in a way that defied logic. Regardless, I found myself standing outside his office, heart racing. The thought of entering his office made my nerves jangle. I wasn’t sure what kind of reaction I’d get from him. Would he be cold? Dismissive? Or worse, angry? Still, I couldn’t seem to let it go. I had already brewed him a cup of coffee, something simple, yet it felt like an offering, a peace gesture that I wasn't even sure he would appreciate. I took a deep breath, then another, gathering my strength before knocking on the door. When the door finally opened, my anticipation plummeted. It wasn’t Ralph who answered, but Callan. He stood there with a welcoming smile, his presence immediately putting me somew

    ~Ralph I couldn’t shake the thought of the rogues lurking out there, planning their next move. Every fiber of my being screamed that they were waiting, biding their time, waiting for the perfect moment to strike again. I sat in a dimly lit room with Callan and my brother, Jasper, discussing strategies. My frustration was reaching a boiling point. “We can’t let them strike again,” I yelled, slamming my fist down on the bed, the anger consuming me. “We need to find them before they come for us again.” I tried to get up, to do something, anything. But my body, weakened from the brutal journey back, betrayed me. I collapsed back onto the bed, my muscles trembling with exhaustion. I hated this—hated feeling so powerless, so vulnerable. Every part of me wanted to get out there and hunt them down myself, but I was still too weak from the battle, the long, arduous trek back that nearly killed me. My mind was sharp, but my body refused to cooperate. “I have to get up,” I muttered through g

    ~Otsana Ever since I discovered that Alpha Ralph enjoyed the coffee I made, I’d been secretly sending him a cup every morning, though I had to use another maid to deliver it. He disliked me now—no, he hated me—and I was sure that was the reason he never wanted me near him. Still, I wasn’t trying to force myself into his life or expect a sudden change in our relationship. I just wished he would acknowledge me like he used to, I feel his current situation was my fault, I pushed him to that journey, if only I hadn't been captured by the rogues, maybe Ralph would still be nice to me. Even a little recognition or a small nod of approval from him, would’ve meant the world to me. Instead, he always kept his distance, treating me like I was invisible or worse, a nuisance. But still, I sent him the coffee, hoping that one day it might change his view, even if just a little. “Hey!” Kate’s voice broke through my thoughts like a splash of cold water. “Are you alright? You’ve been cutting that

    ~OtsanaI hummed a cheerful tune as I soaked in the warm, fragrant bath. The thought of spending the evening with Alpha Ralph filled me with excitement and anticipation, my heart fluttering like a bird in flight."I can't wait to see him," I murmured, a smile playing on my lips. "I can't believe I'm in love."My mind drifted back to the first time I'd met him, my heart racing with the memory."I knew from the moment I saw him that he'd be the love of my life," I whispered.I slipped deeper into the warm water, my muscles relaxing as the fragrant soap bubbles surrounded me. I closed my eyes, letting the heat of the water soothe away the day's stresses.Suddenly, I heard a strange voice calling my name."Otsana?"I sat up in the water, my eyes wide with alarm."Did I hear that right?" I asked myself, my heart racing. "Was that my imagination?"I listened carefully, the only sound, the gentle gurgling of the water in the tub."It must have been my imagination," I whispered, my heart stil

    ~RalphI stood on the balcony of my Chambers, surveying my pack with a sense of pride. The sun was bright overhead, the sky a brilliant blue.As I stood there, I saw a car approaching, its engine rumbling as it made its way toward the compound.I turned to Callan, my Beta, who stood beside me."Are we expecting anyone today?" I asked, my brow furrowing in confusion.Callan shook his head, his expression serious."No, Alpha," he said, his voice tense and cautious."We aren't expecting anyone," he continued, his eyes narrowed with suspicion. "But I've already sent word to all the neighboring packs, including Noah, the Lycan king. They should be arriving any moment now. The battle is in five days, after all."My jaw tightened, a sense of unease washing over me."Keep an eye on whoever it is," I said, my voice firm and commanding. "And send word to the guards."No one enters or leaves this compound without my permission."I rushed to the gate, my heart pounding with anticipation. As I dre

    ~SophiaI sat in the moonlight oack's garden with my father, my mind swirling with questions and doubts."Father," I said, my voice hesitant. "Why are you so determined to marry me off to Alpha Ralph? You seem so bent on this alliance."He smiled, a cold and calculating gleam in his eyes."Sophia," he said, his voice low and smooth. "I am doing this for the good of our pack. You see, if you marry Ralph, it will create a powerful alliance between the Moonlight and Greyhound Pack."And with that alliance," my father continued, his voice taking on a conspiratorial tone, "we can conquer the Dark Shadow Pack." "The Dark Shadow Pack sits on a valuable piece of land that would greatly expand the territory of our own pack. And with you married to Ralph, we will have the manpower and resources to take it."I swallowed hard, my stomach churning with fear.As if on cue, my phone began to ring in my hand. I smiled, grateful for the distraction."Excuse me, Father," I said, standing from my seat.

    ~RalphI stumbled through the forest, my steps unsteady as I made my way back to the pack. "Otsana," I muttered, the name a whisper on my lips. "Otsana, Otsana, Otsana."Suddenly, I bumped into a solid form. "Alpha!" a voice cried, and I realized it was Callan"Callan," I said, my voice slurring. "Where's Otsana?"Callan looked at me with concern."Otsana?" Callan asked, his voice puzzled. "She's in the maids' quarters, I believe. Why do you ask?"I steadied myself against him, my hands gripping his shoulders. "I need to see her," I said, my words thick with need. "I need to make sure she's safe."Callan frowned. "Alpha, are you sure you're okay?" he asked, his eyes narrowed with concern. "You're not acting like yourself."I shoved away from Callan, my determination fueling me as I stumbled through the pack grounds, my feet thudding against the earth."Otsana," I murmured, the name a chant in my head. "I can't do this. I can't betray the prophecy, I do not wish to die."Finally, I re

    ~RalphThe council chamber was silent, the air heavy with tension. The elders sat in a semi-circle, their faces carved with age and wisdom, their eyes fixed on the confrontation unfolding before them."I will not marry your daughter, Sophia," I declared, my voice a hammer to the table. "Whatever agreement the council made, I will not abide by it."Alpha Grayson slammed his fist on the table, his face twisted in rage. "This is an insult," he snarled, his eyes blazing. "I saved your life, and you repay me with defiance?""I do not owe you my life," I growled, my own fury rising to meet his. "And I certainly do not owe you my future."Grayson stood, his body rigid with indignation. "You are a fool," he spat, his voice trembling with rage. "You think you can defy me, and there will be no consequences?"The elders exchanged worried glances, their eyes darting between us like a spark of flame."Enough," one of the elders said, his voice a balm to the heated argument."We did not bring you h

    ~RalphI woke with a start, the room coming into focus in a haze of shadow and muted light. As my eyes adjusted, I saw a figure sitting at the edge of my bed, their features blurry and indistinct."Alpha Ralph?" a voice said, the words sickly sweet.I blinked, my voice emerging as a raspy croak. "Nicole?"I tried to sit up, but my body felt weak, the effort draining my already meager strength.Nicole reached out a hand, her touch cool against my skin."Don't try to move, Alpha," she said, her voice cloying "You've been through a lot."I recoiled from her touch, my stomach churning with disgust. "What are you doing here?" I demanded, my voice dripping with venom. "You have no business being in my room."Nicole's smile faltered, her eyes narrowing in anger. "I was only trying to help," she hissed, her hands balling into fists."I see you finally took the antidote," Nicole purred, her voice dripping with smug satisfaction. "The moon goddess must be pleased."Rage coiled through my body,

    ~OtsanaI walked through the pack, my steps sluggish as I grappled with the mixed emotions swirling inside me. Alpha Ralph's dismissal had left me feeling dejected, I was a fool to ever think he'd fall in love with someone like me."Otsana."I turned, surprised to see Tabitha, the head maid, standing behind me. "Someone from Moonlight Pack, wishes to speak with you."My heart quickened in my chest. Someone from the Moonlight pack? That's my former pack, what could the person want?"Tabitha extended a hand towards the Alpha's residence, her expression enigmatic. "They are waiting in the study," she said, a curious lilt to her voice. "I cannot say more than that."I followed her down the path, my mind racing with possibilities. Who could it be that wanted to speak with me? Had I offended someone without realizing it? Or could it be something more?I stepped into the Alpha's residence, my gaze falling on Kate, as she struggled with a tray of used plates. For a moment, I thought she might

    ~RalphI slipped out of Otsana, quickly pulling on my pants as I crossed the room. My hand reached for the sword at my side, my eyes darting around the room, searching for the intruder.Otsana's face was pale, her eyes wide with fear. "What if someone had been spying on us all along " she whispered, her voice trembling.I pushed past the open door, scanning the hall for any sign of the intruder. There was no one in sight, the only indication of their presence the faint sound of retreating footsteps.I followed the sound, my steps quick and silent, my heart beating in my chest. But as I rounded the corner, the hallway was empty, no sign of the intruder."Show yourself," I snarled, my voice echoing through the hall. "Who dares to spy on me?"The silence that followed was deafening.I took Otsana's hand, leading her down the hall. "Come on," I said, my voice low and reassuring. "We need to get back to our quarters."Otsana nodded, her eyes still wide with fear. As we turned a corner, a c

    ~Ralph As the light faded, I saw that the hall had changed. The fighting had ceased, and all of the wolves were standing in a circle around Jasper and me, their eyes wide with wonder. Jasper lay on the floor, his body broken and bloody. He was panting, his eyes glassy with pain. "No more," he whispered, his voice hoarse and strained. "You win, Alpha Ralph. I yield." I nodded, my body still trembling from the exertion of the fight. I turned to face the crowd, my eyes sweeping over the wolves that had rallied to my side. "We have won," I said, my voice loud and clear. "Jasper has conceded defeat, and the throne is rightfully mine once more." The wolves howled in celebration, their voices rising up into the rafters. The Seer stood at my side, her eyes shining with pride. "But the fight is not over," I continued. "We must ensure that Jasper is held accountable for his crimes.
