Aiden's Pov

It had been weeks since the attack on my Pack and the taste of defeat left me broken in more ways than one. The ambush was swift, brutal, and unexpected. Mighty didn’t just come for Skylar, he came to destroy me and words had spread across territories, leaving my pack vulnerable to attacks from any other pack. I cried for my own failure at defending my territory and now my pack which use to be one of the most feared and most peaceful pack in Rome is now left stack naked.

I couldn’t bear the humiliation. I buried myself in the room for a while before I could stand feet again. I knew this was not the time to be weak. So I stood up and ready to take responsibilities for everything. I told my warriors to go back into training because now that word had spread across the territories, Alpha’s would wan to claim my pack and they would come with war. I already lost my dignity, I wasn’t ready to lose my pack. Not now, not ever.

I searched every nook and cranny of territories and pack

    Today is the day I accept my role as Co-Alpha. I will be taking on my responsibilities as an Alpha alongside Ethan, and I am excited. I am excited about this new beginning. I stood in front of the mirror, checking myself out as I got dressed for the coronation. Just as I was about to apply the last touch of mascara, my phone started ringing. I rolled my eyes when I saw who was calling, then tapped the green button to pick up.“Hey, bitch,” Lilah echoed through the phone. She had been calling me all day.“Good morning to you too,” I said, putting the phone on speaker and placing it on the table to continue my makeup.“When will you be here?” she smiled through.“After the coronation. I’ll be out,” I said. “Don’t tell me you won’t be here to witness the bonding,” I added, trying to fake hurt.“You know why I couldn’t make it, but I promise to make it up to you,” she said on the other end.“I’ll see you soon then.”“Bye,” she ended the call.Since I met Lilah at the mall the other day, sh

    Mighty's POV“Skylar, you can do this. Push,” Dr. Brenda urged, her voice steady as she encouraged Skylar to push out the baby. I didn’t want to watch—this scene was too intense for me. Watching a human come out of another human was a little too extreme. Skylar screamed in response.“Just one more push,” Dr. Brenda said. With a loud scream, Skylar gave one final push, and the baby emerged. The sound of the baby’s cries filled the room. I gave Skylar a small smile and a nod of acknowledgment before I left.It was a joyful moment for everyone—except for me, of course. She wasn’t the one I wanted a child with. My heart still belonged to a girl I’d fallen in love with back in school in Italy, and I hadn’t stopped feeling that way since. I rejected my mate because of her. It was a shock when I returned to Rome and saw her again, that night, dancing in the rain. It was a magical moment until I realized I wasn’t the only one watching her.Back then, when we were young pups, I was bullied a lo

    Aiden's POVI jumped from the tree above and landed in my wolf form. He ran through the woods for his life, and my wolf followed close behind. Not that I couldn’t catch him immediately and tear him apart, but I enjoyed the chase. I loved watching my victims run and beg for their lives before killing them.I raced after him. He could’ve shifted into his wolf form too, but he was stupid. He just ran like a defenseless human. I pounced, ripping into him and tearing his head from his body. Lucas handed me a shirt as I shifted back to my human form. This was the thirteenth rogue wolf I’d killed this month.It’s been seven years of great torture, and I’ve enjoyed every bit of it. The pain reminds me I deserve all the bad things that have happened to me. Seven years since the Shadow’s attack on my pack. Seven years since my once-safe pack became a haven for rogue wolves. Seven years of trying to regain my dignity by hunting every last one of them.Different Alphas from other territories have

    Aiden's POVAs the evening’s gathering wound down and the Alpha king delivered his final speeches, the room erupted in applause. Packs from across the world were acknowledged, but none more than Alpha Ethan’s pack. To my surprise, the Rock Reel Pack of Paris was hailed for their innovation, prosperity, and strength. They were recognized not just as a powerful pack but as the most powerful pack in all of Paris.I felt a mixture of respect and urgency. This was the ally I had been looking for all along, even if the odds seemed stacked against me because Ethan’s pack was wealthy and independent, and didn’t need anything from my struggling territory. I thought about what I could offer and I resolved to offer him a ten percent share of my territory. Deep down, I knew that would be of little interest to a pack as self-sufficient as Ethan’s.As the formalities ended, I exchanged pleasantries with a few Alphas, making sure to keep my composure, though my mind was already calculating what to d

    Ethan's POVI drove out of the parking lot of Mouris’ mansion and made my way to the airport. Sometimes I love my alone time, which was why I came to Italy alone. I just didn’t want to bring anyone along. I enjoy keeping a low profile wherever I go. I am very famous, both in the werewolf world and in the human world. I was well-known in the werewolf world for having the safest and strongest pack as an Alpha. In the human world, I was ranked as the youngest billionaire. I represent the Roux Group of Companies and have been representing it well ever since I took over. Always being in front of the camera can be exhausting sometimes, which is why I take every chance I get to have some alone time.My mind drifted back to Aiden. Of course, I knew who he was, and I intentionally went to greet Mouris to give him a chance to speak with me. I knew Aiden wanted to say something to me because, the moment I entered the hall, I caught Leo—Emily’s pup’s scent—in the room. I made sure to find him, an

I raced into the building with Zoey in my hand. I didn’t even bother to wait for Isla and Other pups, they know their way up and I wanted Emily to see them immediately.The Roux Fashion Studio is a Marvel of modern designs. The large floor-to-ceiling windows bathed the white room in natural light, and the sleek furniture was arranged artfully around the spaces. The mannequins were draped in Emily’s latest designs. The perfectly tailored garments resonate with the sophistication and classiness she was known for. The place smelled of fresh fabric and the subtle scent of lavender gave it a calm and creative ambiance.Cynthia, Emily’s assistant was roosted behind the sleek white desk checking through papers. The floors are smooth, polished concrete which made every of my footstep echo in the vast space. Cynthia raised her h

  • Alpha's Unwanted Bond    A Pact With The Past

    Emily's POVI was so scared when Ethan dropped the news about Zoey being a witch, but I was even more terrified when I witnessed her raising a ball in the air. What?!!Zoey is only six. Usually, werewolves don't develop any form of ability until they get their wolves, which happens when they turn sixteen. So, it’s shocking to see a six-year-old practicing magic. Her parents must have been incredibly powerful witches.“Where are Isla and the other kids?” I asked Ethan when I realized I hadn’t seen Midrar or Leo. Isla took the three kids to the airport to welcome Ethan home, but he came back with only Zoey.“I thought they’d come up here with us, but I guess they wanted to stay in the car. Leo and Midrar have been going back and forth about something, though I’m not sure what,” he said.“Zoey’s case aside for now, we have other matters to attend to,” Ethan said, his expression turning serious. I guessed this had something to do with his trip to Italy.“What’s up?” I asked.“Let me start

She waved at me, smiling as I made my way towards her. I couldn’t help but notice how malnourished she looked. Her petite frame seemed even smaller and skinnier than it used to be. I never liked her mate, and I was so against it when she decided to move with him to Paris, but of course, she wanted to follow her mate. I suspected something foul was going on, but I wasn’t ready to push it just yet.After I sort out my issues with Alpha Ethan, I’m going to find out what’s up with her.

  • Alpha's Unwanted Bond   The Legacy Of Zoey Caesar

    Zoey's POV (10 years Later)Three years ago, everything changed. Everyone I knew got their wolves, a monumental rite of passage that marked the transition into adulthood for those of wolf blood. But for me, there was nothing—no surge of power, no howling spirit joining mine. The realization hit like a dagger to the chest: I was wolfless. I was sitting in front of the mirror while on the edge of my bed and could only see my reflection, candlelight started to flicker. My loose, thick, brown hair had fallen on my face framing it loosely, and my blue eyes gleamed fiercely, as they did when I was young. I became the most powerful witch in the entire region; a position that attracted both reverence and horror. But it wasn’t enough. My heritage lay heavily on my chest like a weight rapping me around the fingers that I was a witch – a witch whose blood ran thick with power. All charms, all enchantments, all lost sorcery of my forefathers was given to me in trust of the command. And yet, he

    The sun hung low in the sky, casting a golden hue across the rolling hills surrounding our pack lands. It was one of those rare days when duty could wait, and family took precedence. Since Leo expressed his feelings about being overshadowed, Shenaya and I had made an unspoken vow to ensure our pups knew they were cherished. Today was about them, about us. A day without war councils, patrol strategies, or territorial disputes—just a family date to remind ourselves of the simple joys in life. I stood in the courtyard, watching as Shenaya helped Zoey into the wagon. The little girl’s laughter rang out as her mother tickled her sides, her bright blue eyes shimmering joyfully. Shenaya’s red hair glowed like fire under the sunlight, her smile more colorful than any star. "Papa, can I sit up front with you?" Leo’s voice broke my thoughts. I had to look at him, he had messy black hair, and he looked at me with anticipation and apprehension. Leo had been more open since our conversation, bu

    Shenaya’s POVThe warm scent of vanilla and lavender filled my room as I stood in front of the mirror, smoothing my navy blue dress. It was simple yet elegant, perfect for a family dinner. I glanced at the perfume bottle on the table and picked it up, I sprayed a bit more to mask my new scent. My hand lingered on my abdomen for a moment—a silent acknowledgment of the tiny life growing inside me. Today was special. Not just because I had something monumental to share about my career but because the second announcement would change everything for our family after going through so much chaos that could tear us all apart but we still stand tall regardless. The din of laughter and chatter greeted me before I even reached the dining area. The large room was alive with energy, the long oak table nearly groaning under the weight of plates and bowls of food. Isla and one of the Omegas were bustling about, adding finishing touches to the spreads, their faces glowing with pride at the beauti

    LUCY'S POVThe cold, damp air of the dungeon wrapped around me like a suffocating shroud, but I didn’t care. Not anymore. Alenjro was shackled to the stone wall, his once-proud figure reduced to a trembling heap. His screams had dulled into a low, guttural groan after hours of torment. I pressed the hot silver bar into his back once more, and the satisfying sizzle of his skin made me smile bitterly. "No matter how much torment you give me, you will never get your wolf back," he spat out, though his voice shook. I chuckled darkly, crouching down to meet his bloodshot eyes. "I would have left you," I said calmly, "but your mouth wouldn’t allow it. You’re not in the position to torment anyone right now." He glared at me, but the fire in his eyes had long since burned out. Good. He deserved every ounce of pain I gave him. Every scar. Every burn. Anika stirred faintly in the back of my mind. My wolf, my constant companion, had been silent for far too long. Alenjro’s betrayal had shatter

    Skylar's POVI stood at the edge of the forest, staring at the Crescent Moon Pack grounds from the shadows. My heart was heavy with a weight I had carried for years—a burden born of betrayal, power, and regret. The whole betrayal thing had scarred me, it drove me to chase power to fill the void left. In the process, I had betrayed everyone, hurt Shenaya, and nearly destroyed everything I once held dear, just because of Andrew's fuel for power.I feel so lonely, I live in isolation, no one talks to me, and I live as a shadow that was why I insisted on having Zoey around. Deep down I want to have a purpose too, I wanted respect but all the power I possess right now keeps radiating without using it. Watching the Roux and the Casaer family from afar for years, I could see the consequences of my actions. Aiden was no longer the man I once wanted. Shenaya, his chosen Luna, had become the Alpha I never thought she could be, so strong, commanding, and loved by the pack. And I, a rogue in spir

    Shenaya's POVThe air was thick with anticipation as I prepared for the journey that lay before me. Aunt Belle’s hut was filled with the scent of herbs, their pungent aroma lingered in the air as she arranged them into intricate patterns around a large circular tapestry. The room was very heavy with energy, the air tingled with the magic that would guide me to Aiden’s mind where I would search for his lost wolf and his broken memories.“Shenaya,” Aunt Belle said gently to balm against my frayed nerves, “I hope you still remember that this is not a physical Journey. It’s a journey within your mind. It's a place where memories are intertwined with emotions and spirit. I’ll be here to guide you, but only you can reach him.”I nodded slightly as I knelt on the tapestry, and my hand began to shake. My thoughts kept drifting to Aiden’s face, his empty eyes when they looked at me. His eyes used to be very warm whenever he looked at me but now they are filled with distance which I hate so muc

  • Alpha's Unwanted Bond   The Missing Part

    Aiden's POVThe sun was setting in faint, soft hues over the horizon, casting long shadows over Skylar’s garden. The fading light made the colors dimmer, the sky was heavier than usual. I sat under a tree, alone, lost in my thoughts, still feeling like a stranger within my own skin. I was near Skylar, my mate yet I felt hollow, like I was adrift, floating in a place I didn’t recognize, I recognized Skylar to be my mate but the emptiness I felt within me since the day I decided to follow her could not be comprehended. Her presence felt distant, as though I were standing in a foreign city, lost among faces that should have been familiar but weren’t.Memories flitted through my mind, strange and elusive. Images of Skylar were clear, I knew that we’d been through so much. I could recall being bonded to her, yet somehow, I felt as if someone else was missing, as if part of me was struggling to break free, to remember. Shenaya’s name floated to the surface of my thoughts, insistent, and wi

Aiden had finally woken up after days of unconsciousness, but the man who opened his eyes wasn’t the one who had promised me forever. Now, it has been a week, which had been a week of empty sorrow and true suffering despite the fact that Aiden was alive. A week today he stared at me with that blank look on his face and then walked out with Skylar.I slid my hands along the edge of the bed where he once slept, and I suddenly realized there was no one. Aunt Belle had tried to reassure me, she tried explaining how Aiden’s memories had returned jumbled, woven with pieces of his past with Skylar. She’d assured me that the things he remembered doing with her were our memories, they were things he did with me, our moments but somehow, he saw Skylar’s face in them. I clung to that explanation, but it didn’t ease the ache. It did

    Aiden's POVSlowly my lumbering eyelids dragged themselves apart and I stared at the harsh glare of the hospital ceiling light above. I could feel the slow pulse that spread dull and aching behind my eyes as if my very brain was aching with pain. My body finally responded, alert and rigid, as if the heavyweights of lead had draped around my bones and as a trial to flex my muscles, shooting spasms of lingering pain.The surroundings of the room were bleached and motionless, the steady sound of appliances providing me with a clear sensorium of time. For a moment, I understood that I was in a hospital, and while that much was clear, the why eluded me like a shadow that slipped across the grass just as one turned to pursue it. Something was amiss, there must have been a big hole in my head that I couldn’t locate or perhaps fill. Irritation started to build up beneath the thick layer of confusion when I tried to find something in my head that wasn’t there.Before I could breathe, thinking
