Stephanie stood up, her eyes still red from crying. “What’s the plan?” she asked Chris, her voice was steady but there was an undertone of exhaustion.Chris gave her a long look, his brow furrowed in concern. “We need to move carefully,” he said, glancing around to ensure they weren’t overheard. “If we’re not discreet, words could get out, and that’s the last thing we need right now. Enzo’s already ahead of us, and if he catches wind of any of this, it could put Kayla, Damien, and the others in even more danger.”Stephanie clenched her fists, her body tense. “I’m not going to sit around while my daughter is out there with him,” she muttered, her voice wavering slightly. “I can’t just—”Chris placed a hand on her shoulder, giving her a firm but understanding look. “I know you want to take action right now, Steph, but you need rest. You haven’t slept well in days, and you’re running on fumes. Go home, eat something, and get some sleep. We’ll reconvene later, and I’ll fill you in on ever
As the helicopter soared over the landscape, Chris peered out through the glass, watching the vast wilderness of the werewolf territory beneath him. Dense forests stretched out like a sea of green, interspersed with the occasional rocky hills and rivers that cut through the land like silver veins. The air was crisp, even up here, with the scent of pine and damp earth carried by the wind. Unfortunately he couldn't enjoy the scenario before him as danger loomed.He reached for his phone and dialed Alpha Kai’s number. The line buzzed twice before a deep, gravelly voice answered. "Chris," Alpha Kai said, surprise evident in his tone. "I didn’t expect to hear from you. Everything okay?""Not exactly," Chris replied, keeping his voice calm. "I’m on my way to see you. I need to speak to you in person—alone, with your trusted men."There was a brief pause on the other end. “Alright,” Alpha Kai said slowly. “I’ll make sure we’re ready.”By the time they reached the north of the werewolf territ
Chris smirked as he shook Alpha Kai’s hand one last time. "Thanks again for your support," he said, a gleam of determination in his eyes. "We won’t forget this."Alpha Kai nodded. "Just be sure you hit Enzo hard. There’s no room for mistakes."With a final nod, Chris left five of his guards behind at Crescent Pack. “In case things go sideways and I can’t return,” Chris explained to them. “Coordinate with Alpha Kai. Stay sharp and be ready to meet wherever I instruct.”The guards saluted, their faces set with determination. Chris gave them a reassuring nod before boarding the helicopter. His next destination was Thame Pack, further north, but a good distance away from Crescent. As they soared through the sky, the landscape beneath him turned from the dense, lush forests of Crescent Pack to a more barren, rocky terrain. Thame Pack had always been known for its rugged environment, a tough land that bred tough wolves.Chris placed a call to Alpha Baal, the leader of Thame Pack. The line b
After promising to help them rebuild their pack once the mission was completed, Chris left Thame's pack. As soon as the helicopter touched down on the familiar terrain, the sight of the Crescent Pack troops, already assembled and ready for the mission gave him hope especially after what he saw at the Thame pack. Alpha Kai was also waiting for him at the landing pad, a look of steely determination etched across his face. Chris approached him with quick strides, offering a brief nod before they clasped hands. "How did it go with Alpha Baal?" Kai asked, his voice low but firm, as they walked toward the pack’s war room.Chris exhaled. "Not good. His pack was attacked by wolf hunters just a couple of days ago. The devastation was brutal—scorched fields, burned buildings, and they lost some of their best warriors."Alpha Kai’s expression hardened. "Wolf hunters? This far north? They usually stay closer to the southern human settlements.""Yeah, they’ve gotten bold. Baal and his pack did
Alfred and the Eclipse warriors left for Knight Pack mid-afternoon as Chris had instructed them. He led the charge, flanked by some trusted lieutenants. The warriors moved in silence, the only sound the rhythmic thud of their boots against the soft earth. They knew what awaited them—Chris had briefed them thoroughly. The ambush was to be swift, and brutal if necessary, but they all hoped for a quick surrender to minimize bloodshed.By the time they reached the border where Chris and Alpha Kai were waiting it was already dark; the only light they had came from the full moon."You made it," Chris said, his voice low and steady. "Are the warriors ready?"Alfred glanced back at his men, each one standing at attention, their faces unreadable beneath the shadows of their helmets. "We’re ready. Just say the word."Chris nodded. "Good. Here’s the plan. We attack at 2:00 a.m. when the pack is deep in sleep. It’s the most vulnerable time for them. Our forces will advance from two sides—your me
Alpha Kai stood in the room, his piercing gaze fixed on the beta, gamma, and the leaders of the Knight Pack who sat shackled before him. Their eyes avoided his, knowing that one wrong word could mean their demise. Chris stood to the side, his arms folded, watching intently. This was the moment they had been waiting for—the chance to finally uncover Enzo's plans and bring an end to his twisted ambitions.The silence stretched on, thick and suffocating. Alpha Kai took a slow, deliberate breath, stepping forward. His deep voice cut through the silence like a blade. "You know why you're here," he said, his eyes narrowing at the beta, who glared back with unspoken resistance. "We’ve already defeated your pack. Your alpha is nowhere to be found, and you have no allies left to save you."The beta's jaw clenched, his eyes darting around the room as if looking for a way to escape. He said nothing, but the tension in his body told Kai everything he needed to know. These men thought they coul
Alpha Damien and his men arrived at Harvey Pack around dawn. The silence in the pack lands was unnerving, this coupled with the earlier ambush at the mountains made Alpha Damien worry as he scanned the surroundings, his senses on high alert. Louis walked just behind him, his eyes darting around and uneasy at the calm within the pack. "Something’s not right," Damien muttered, suspicion gnawing at the back of his mind. "Stay sharp. This could be a trap." Louis nodded, signaling to the other warriors to remain vigilant, but before Damien could finish his warning, shadows shifted, and suddenly they were surrounded. Damien and his men drew their weapons, tense and ready, but it was clear they were outnumbered. From the shadows, Alpha Czar stepped forward, his face cold and calculating. He looked every bit the predator, a gleam of satisfaction in his eyes. But that wasn't what made Damien's blood run cold. Following him, like a ghost rising from Damien's past, was Alpha Enzo. “Enzo
Alpha Damien stood there, he had never thought that anyone least Enzo would betray him. He struggled to process what Enzo had just said and what was happening. “We used to be best friends," Damien began, his voice low and strained. "Even if you wanted my pack, my prestige… I would have given it to you willingly. You never had to do any of this, Enzo.”Enzo sneered, his cold, calculating expression never faltering. “Your pack? Your prestige? Do you think this is just about some land, Damien? My ambition is larger than just having the Knight Pack. This isn’t just about power.”Damien blinked, taken aback. He had expected Enzo’s motivations to be driven by power and greed, but there was something more, something he hadn't considered. "If it’s not about the pack, then what is it?"Enzo’s lips curled into a dark smile. "It’s about love."The word hung in the air, Damien’s brow furrowed, confusion written across his face. “Love? What are you talking about?”Enzo’s eyes darkened as he stepp
