Ella sat on the examination table in the clinic, her fingers nervously drumming against the cold metal. Her mind raced with thoughts, her heart beating faster than ever. She didn’t want to be here, yet she needed confirmation for what her body had been trying to tell her. The room felt suffocating as the doctor’s eyes flicked between the monitor and her face. The faint sound of the ultrasound machine beeped in the background.

“Congratulations,” the doctor said, his voice cutting through her cloud of thoughts, “you’re having a baby.”

Ella’s world seemed to stop in that moment. Her vision blurred as she stared at the screen, unable to process the words. Her fingers clenched the edge of the bed, her stomach twisting in knots. **A baby?** Her mind raced back to that night, the heat, the passion. Alpha Derek. **Oh no, this is not supposed to happen.** She whispered under her breath, her hand resting instinctively on her flat belly. Panic surged through her veins as flashes of that steamy n

Yet, amidst the chaos,the northern territory stood out as an exception.Northern Wolf Hospital.Within the hospital’s sterile white walls, a doctor moved from bed to bed, tending to the afflicted wolves with a precision and calmness that seemed otherworldly.

    Ella sat in her car at the parking lot outside her homel, lost in thought as she stared at her reflection in the rearview mirror. Her wolf, Lila, stirred inside her."Derek is still our mate," Lila whispered, her tone a mixture of hurt and hope. "He didn’t accept our rejection.”Ella closed her eyes, feeling the familiar stab of grief. Memories from the past came flooding back, and her voice trembled as she responded, "If Derek had accepted me as his Luna… our pup would still be alive." Her words were soaked with bitterness, the pain of her loss still fresh, even after all these years.Lila whimpered softly inside Ella's mind, sharing in the sorrow. "But he didn’t, Ella. Maybe there’s still a reason why we haven’t fully severed that bond.”Ella shook her head, refusing to listen to her wolf. "No, Lila. It's too late. There’s nothing left between us but ashes.”Back at the hospital, Alpha Derek paced the hallway, his mind in turmoil a

    “Doctor South?” Derek echoed, his eyes wide with shock. “You?!”“Yes, I am Doctor South,” Ella said with a small smile, relishing the moment of revelation. She turned to follow Felix inside, leaving Derek and his assistant stunned. They trailed after her, their expressions betraying their disbelief.Inside, Derek's gaze shifted around the room, landing on a portrait of Ella and Alpha Moore. In the image, Moore’s arms were wrapped possessively around Ella as they both smiled contentedly. An uncontrollable surge of jealousy bubbled up inside Derek as he watched Ella take a seat beside Moore, her hand resting on his lap while Moore draped an arm across her shoulders protectively.“I’m Alpha Moore,” Moore spoke first, his voice laced with subtle amusement. “I believe you’ve already met my Luna, Dr. South. Please, have a seat.”Derek, his hands buried in his pockets, stood defiantly as he glared at him, the jealousy bubbling beneath his cool facade. "I’m simply surprised to see that a She-

    Derek stood stunned for a second as he watched her walk away.Derek, however, wasn’t about to let her go that easily.He followed her out, his voice rising as he called after her. "I mean it, Ella! Just give us a chance. Please, hear me out!"Ella stopped in her tracks, her hands clenching into fists as she fought to keep her composure. She spun around to face him, her eyes blazing with anger. "A chance?! What happened to the first chance you had? Please stop using your fake affections!" she shouted, her voice trembling with barely contained fury. "Just get to the point!" ”What exactly do you want from me Alpha Derek?”Derek’s jaw clenched as he took a deep breath, his hands balling into fists at his sides. "Fine," he growled, his frustration evident. "My people are suffering, and there’s nothing I can do but ask for your help."A bitter laugh escaped Ella’s lips as she shook her head, her suspicions confirmed.

    After I left Ella's home, I couldn’t bring myself to head back to the Moonstone Pack—not without taking her along. The thought of leaving her behind, married to another man, was unbearable. The memory of how close they were gnawed at me, twisting my gut.Clenching my hands into fists, I growled low in my throat. "No, she’s mine," I muttered, gritting my teeth. "She can’t belong to another."‘It’s your fault,’ Leo snarled in my head, his anger boiling beneath the surface.I sighed, knowing what was coming. "Why didn’t you accept her as our Luna?!" Leo’s voice was thick with rage. "Now you’ve driven her into the arms of another man!"His words stung, the truth piercing deep, and it took everything in me to calm him down. 'We won’t leave without our mate!' Leo insisted, his voice firm with resolve. 'We searched everywhere for her, and the Moon Goddess finally brought us back to her. She’s still ours! We can’t repeat the mistake from five years ago!'And he was right.Five years of regret

    Derek paced the hallway of the Northern Pack hospital, his patience wearing thin. He had been waiting for Ella for what seemed like hours as she finished her rounds. The sterile smell of antiseptic hung in the air, and the sound of soft footsteps echoed through the nearly deserted hallway. He hated hospitals—the coldness, the desperation that lingered in the air. But for her, he would wait a lifetime.Finally, the door to one of the patient wards opened, and Ella walked out, looking completely exhausted. Her hair was slightly disheveled, and the dark circles under her eyes only made her look more worn out. She rubbed her neck absentmindedly, clearly lost in thought."It doesn’t help that you check on me every day, Alpha Derek," Ella said, her tone unconcerned as she spotted him waiting.Derek’s lips curved slightly. "You look exhausted," he replied, ignoring her clear annoyance. "Can we discuss things over dinner? I already booked a place, and I’m sure you’ll love it."Ella scoffed, b

    Ella walked into Alpha Moore’s office, the familiar scent of leather and aged wood welcoming her. As usual, he sat behind his large mahogany desk, composed and focused on a document in his hands. His face, though calm, had a glimmer of intensity in his eyes as he read. Without thinking, Ella moved toward him, her exhaustion weighing her down. She leaned slightly against the edge of his desk, seeking comfort in his steady presence.“A patient lost his wolf today,” Ella said softly, her voice laced with frustration. “I don't know how I could have helped him. I…”Alpha Moore’s eyes softened as he looked up at her, gently placing his palm over her hand. His touch was warm, grounding her. “We’ll sort that out later, my dear,” he said in a soothing tone cutting her off. “Right now, we have a more urgent matter to deal with.”Ella raised an eyebrow in question her attention shifting as Moore slid a letter across the desk toward her, its edges slightly crumpled from his earlier handling..

    The soft clink of glass against marble echoed in the dimly lit room. Valen sat on a leather stool in his personal mini-bar, a sleek, modern space tucked away in his manor. The polished counters gleamed under the soft glow of pendant lights, and the shelves were lined with an assortment of bottles.Valen reached for the frosted glass in front of him and took a slow sip of the chilled animal blood he had stored in the fridge. It wasn’t as satisfying as fresh blood, but it was enough to keep his urges in check. His thoughts wandered as he stared at the faint crimson color in the glass.Ella.She was everything he never expected. The mere thought of her brought a flicker of warmth to his otherwise cold demeanor. He clenched the glass tighter, thinking of the obstacles still in their way.His quiet moment was interrupted by the soft click of heels against the marble floor.

    The night sky above Silvercrest's pack lands was eerily quiet, but that silence was about to be shattered. Derek stood at the front of the combined armies, Kael by his side. Warriors from various allied packs, their eyes glowing with determination, formed ranks behind them. Derek’s wolf, Leo, huge and menacing, shifted impatiently beneath his skin, eager for the fight ahead.Derek’s voice broke the silence, calm but firm. “Tonight, we end this. Alpha Kevin thought he could betray us and get away with it. He underestimated our strength and unity.”Kael nodded, his sharp eyes scanning the sea of warriors from various packs. “His pack isn’t ready for us. They have no idea we’re coming. We strike hard and fast before they can organize.”A low rumble of agreement traveled through the ranks.“Take your positions,” Derek commanded through the mind link, his voice reaching every wolf in their army. “Stay sharp. Fight as one. No unnecessary risks.”Kevin’s pack was unprepared. Derek and Kael h

    The grand hall of the Alpha Council brimmed with an air of unease. Alpha Derek and Kael stood before the semicircle of Alphas, their expressions hardened. The council’s golden insignia glinted from the walls, an otherwise symbol of unity now overshadowed by the tension gripping the room.“Let’s begin,” Alpha Gideon, the senior member of the council, announced. His voice carried authority, though the faint quiver hinted at his own apprehension. “Alpha Derek, Kael, you’ve requested this session to present evidence against Alpha Kevin. Make it quick; we cannot afford to delay action if what you claim is true.”Derek nodded and gestured toward Kael. “Kael has firsthand knowledge and proof of Kevin’s betrayal. I’ll let him speak.”Kael stepped forward, bowing before the council, his sharp eyes scanning the room. He had expected skepticism, but the weight of their stares still pressed on him. “I’ll get straight to the point. As I earlier said during the last meeting, Kevin has been orchestr

    The room was dimly lit, the flickering glow of a single candle casting long shadows on the walls. Sebastian sat on a black leather couch, his shirt discarded and his chest gleaming with a faint sheen of sweat. His hand gripped a small vial filled with a crimson liquid, its contents shimmering in the light.Sandra leaned against the edge of the table, completely naked, her hair fell in loose waves over her shoulders, her curves illuminated by the candlelight. Her eyes darted to the vial in Sebastian’s hand, curiosity and greed burning in her gaze.“What’s that? Is that what I think it is?” Sandra asked, her voice soft but laced with intrigue.Sebastian’s lips curled into a smug grin as he held up the vial, tilting it slightly so the liquid swirled inside. “Yes,” he said, his voice dripping with satisfaction. “It’s the healer’s blood.”Sandra took a step closer, her movements slow and calculated, her fingers twitching as though she wanted to grab the vial.“You’ve had it all this time?”

    Kael stood outside the Moonstone pack’s war room, staring at the map on the table inside. Derek was leaning over it, running his finger along a line near the northern edge of Kevin’s land.“This spot right here,” Derek said, his voice calm but firm. “It’s his weak link. If Kevin’s hiding something or someone, this is where we’ll find it.”Kael nodded. “He has camps along that border, but they’re not easy to spot. He’s using rogues to keep them hidden, and trust me, they’re good at blending in.”Derek raised an eyebrow. “You sure about this? You’re asking to lead a team right into enemy territory.”Kael didn’t hesitate. “If we don’t act now, Kevin will only get stronger. I’ll lead the strike. I know his territory better than anyone.”Derek studied him for a long moment before nodding. “Fine. Take a small team. No more than six. This isn’t a war—yet. It’s a recon mission. Get in, confirm the camps, and get out.”Kael grinned faintly. “I didn’t know you cared so much.”Derek didn’t smile

    Kael froze under Derek's cold, penetrating gaze. His heart pounded, knowing he was caught with no clear way to explain himself. The Alpha of the Moonstone Pack stepped closer, his voice cutting through the tension like a blade.“What are you doing out here, Kael?” Derek’s voice was cold, and his posture screamed suspicion.Kael straightened, forcing himself to meet Derek’s eyes. “I have something important to tell you,” he said carefully.Derek’s brow arched, his expression unreadable. “Important enough to sneak in and out of my territory in the middle of the night?”Kael exhaled sharply, knowing he had no time to dance around the truth. “I’ve been to Kevin’s hideout. I heard him talking about the plague…”Derek’s eyes narrowed, his stance remaining defensive. “And why should I believe anything you say? You’ve been working with him.”Kael felt the weight of those words. He couldn’t deny the truth, but there was more at stake now. “Because I know what he’s planning this time,” Kael rep

    Kael moved briskly through the dense forest, the cool night air brushing against his skin. He wasn’t expecting trouble tonight; his purpose was simple. Kevin had been silent for days, and Kael was tired of waiting. He needed to know what the next step was. It wasn’t unusual for him to show up at Kevin’s hideout unannounced. They were allies, after all—or so Kael believed.Reaching the secluded hideout, Kael instinctively slowed his pace. The flickering light of torches cast long shadows on the rough stone walls of the underground entrance. He knew this place well. It was where Kevin gathered his most trusted conspirators, planning moves that would shake the werewolf world to its core.Kael didn’t bother announcing himself. Kevin had always encouraged a sense of informality between them, but tonight felt different. Something in the air made Kael’s senses tingle. The muffled sound of voices reached his ears as he descended the narrow stone staircase. He paused. The tone wasn’t one of ca

    The forest was quiet, the crisp night air heavy with tension. Kael moved swiftly through the trees, his sharp senses guiding him toward the rogue who had slipped past the Moonstone pack’s patrols. He spotted a figure crouching near the border, hidden in the shadows.Kael’s lips curled into a grim smile. Got you.With a burst of speed, Kael lunged, pinning the rogue against a tree. The rogue struggled, baring his teeth.“Who sent you?” Kael demanded, his grip tightening around the rogue’s neck.The rogue bared his teeth. “What's this? Some kind of show or what?Kael’s gaze darkened. “Humor me.”The rogue stared at Kael's expression, seeing that he's serious, fear gripped him. “You’re slipping. Siding with these mutts now? What’s your intention?”Kael grinned. “Why don't you guess?”The rogue sneered. “Kevin doesn’t like loose ends, Kael. If he finds out you’re playing both sides—”Kael’s grip tightened on the rogue’s throat. “You don’t get to ask questions.”The rogue laughed bitterly

    The soft rustle of the wind carried an ominous weight as Derek stood on the training grounds, observing his warriors spar. The afternoon sun cast long shadows, the rhythmic clash of weapons punctuating the otherwise serene day. His Beta, Alex, approached with a clipboard in hand, detailing patrol routes and recent findings along their borders.“Rogues are getting bolder,” Alex muttered, scanning the notes. “They’ve been testing our perimeter more frequently.”Derek nodded, his expression grim. “They’re watching us, probing for weaknesses. I need more patrols, especially near the northern ridge. That’s where the terrain works to their advantage.”Before Alex could respond, a voice cut through the air.“They’re not just probing,” Kael said, stepping into view. His presence seemed to draw every eye on the training grounds, the warriors momentarily halting their drills to glance at him. “They’re planning.”Derek turned to face him, his gaze steady. “Planning for what?”Kael crossed his ar
