Alex stood at the edge of the training grounds, his sharp eyes following the warriors as they sparred. The clang of steel against steel and the grunts of exertion filled the crisp morning air. He folded his arms, observing their movements, when a low voice interrupted his thoughts.

“They’re sloppy.”

Alex stiffened, turning his head to find Kael standing beside him, his hands tucked casually into his pockets. His expression was unreadable, but his tone carried a hint of amusement.

“Excuse me?” Alex said, his tone sharp.

Kael nodded toward the warriors. “Their form is rigid, predictable. They’ve been taught well, but they’re not thinking like fighters—they’re thinking like students following instructions. Out there, that’ll get them killed.”

Alex’s jaw tightened. “You think you can do better?”

Kael’s smirk deepened. “I know I can.”

Alex narrowed his eyes, measuring the rogue Alpha before him. “And why would you want to help?”

Kael shrugged, feigning nonchalance. “I’m stuck here, aren’t

    The night was quiet, save for the soft crackle of the fire in Kael’s secluded cabin. He sat alone on a weathered chair, his silver eyes reflecting the flames. He leaned forward, elbows on his knees, a faraway look on his face as memories clawed their way to the surface. “Alpha Kael Blackthorn,” he muttered to himself, the title tasting bitter on his tongue. “Once revered, now reviled.” He let out a hollow laugh, his voice echoing in the empty room. The ghosts of his past were relentless tonight. Years ago, Kael had ruled the Blackthorn Pack after picking up the pieces left of the Silver claw pack, one of the most formidable packs in the region. He was a leader who commanded respect, his presence filling any room he entered. Known for his sharp intellect and fierce loyalty to his pack, Kael was a protector, a warrior, and a visionary. Under his leadership, the Blackthorn Pack thrived. He was a man of action, always on the frontlines during disputes or rogue attacks. The pack adored

    The soft hum of the manor was punctuated by the occasional chatter of pack members passing through the halls. Derek stood near the window of his office, sipping a cup of strong coffee as his eyes lingered on the pack grounds below. His mind was restless, caught between the looming rogue threat and Kael’s unsettling presence.A knock on the door pulled him from his thoughts.“It’s open,” he called out, setting the cup down.The door creaked as Alpha Moore stepped inside. Dressed in casual clothes, his posture was relaxed, but his sharp eyes betrayed a deeper intent.“Finally found you,” Moore said, leaning against the doorframe.Derek smirked faintly. “Hiding wasn’t my intention, but I can see how it might look that way.”Moore closed the door behind him, stepping further inside. “You’ve been scarce, Derek. Not just from me but from everyone. What’s going on?”Derek sighed, running a hand through his hair. “Kael’s presence isn’t exactly a small matter, and with sightings of rogues near

    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

    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

    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

    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 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

    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?”

    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. Valen didn’t need to look up to know who it was. The familiar scent filled the air, a scent he’d always find suffocati

    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
