Shenaya’s Pov

I opened my eyes slowly and everything became blurry, I closed my eyes and opened it again so I could see clearly and my blurry sight slowly became clear. The room is small and dimly lit. I noticed the rough wooden walls, a thatched roof, and a simple bed of straw beneath me. The air is thick with the scent of herbs and the nearby fire made from firewood kept the room warm.

As I tried to stand up, pain gushed through my bones and I whimpered in pain.

‘Lily?’ I called out to my wolf

‘We are safe.’ She said through my mind letting me know she’s okay.

I placed my hands on my abdomen and relief washed through me when I feel the faint flutter of the heart of my pup’s heartbeat. As I was still thankful to moon goddess for keeping my pup alive, I noticed a figure moving around the hut, and I sharply became alerted.

The door pushed open and an old is standing right in front of me.

“Shenaya, you are awake” She said with complete glee in her eyes

I walked as fast as I could so I could get away from that spot. The familiar sights and sounds of the Crescent pack stir a mix of emotions within me but I just have to do the for the sake of my pup.I noticed the unusual buzz of activities as I approached the pack.

I became puzzled by the joyful atmosphere.I wanted to just ignore and made my way to the pack house but my curiousity got the best of me.“Excuse me” I stopped a passerby “What’s going on in the here?” I asked what’s.“It’s Luna’s Coronation day” he said excitedly and walked awayLuna?

Grief gripped me like a relentless storm—howling, tearing, and pulling me into an abyss of despair.I couldn’t help but feel pity for my dad because he couldn’t help but just watched me as I fought for my life right in his house. I could see the pain in his eyes every time he brought my food and he came back to pick it up just like the way he left it because I didn’t have the strength to eat anything.My thoughts spiral into darkness, looping endlessly on the image of Aiden’s cold eyes, his harsh words cut my soul deeper each time i recall them in my mind.Dad came in with another tray of food but instead of him to leave as usual, he sat down by the bed side“Please eat something, even if you don’t care about yourself, please care for your pup.” His voice laced with pure concern and if he got triggered he might burst into tears too.Instead

    The moonlight poured in through the large windows, casting an eerie glow over the luxurious bedroom. I stood near the window with my body tensed and my hand balled in a fist. I felt the weight of Smoke's presence in my mind battling to take control of my body. I hate how powerless i felt because the constant push and pull between me and Smoke is really exhausting and because he is the most powerful part of me, he would always win.I knew what Skylar was planning all evening and it made me want to jump out of my skin. If it was left to me, I could resist her but Soke's instinct were primal and hard to resistMy back was still facing her but i could feel her walking slowly over to my side."Why are you so distant, Alpha? You've be so cold all evening." Her voice dripped with sweetness which disgusts me but excites Smoke. She ran her finger down my arm and came to my face to show herself. She was putting on an extremely short revealing net nightdress that clung to her curves. The confide

I needed a plan, a way to regain control of my mind, my body and my pack.“Lucas, we need fast solution if we want to be saved in this pack.” Desperation clear in my voice as I faced Lucas, who was sitting in front of me.“Alpha, we need to tame Smoke first, that’s the only way you can find solution.”“Do you have any idea of how I can do that?” I asked, hoping he has a solution for taming Smoke.“I have no idea but Smoke is the only one that can get in the way of getting solution” his response made Smoke growl and he released his aura which made Lucas jumped a bit.‘Buddy, you need to calm down, he is right after all.’ I tried to calm Smoke down.After several days of research, we discovered a risky but necessary solution to

Today is a different day because I decided not to put Smoke to sleep with wolfsbane as usual. I knew I needed his full strength today. I was already growing tired of the subtle shift in the pack, the changes in hierarchy, and most of all, Skylar’s unchallenged ruling.Everyone knew Skylar was the one ruling the pack. I was just her puppet. She had me threw Shenaya’s father, the head Omega into the dungeon, Killed an omega for spilling her coffee, disrespected my family- Lucy, She fired all of my trusted executives and replaced them with total strangers I assumed are from her pack.

Every order I gave was from Mighty. I gradually replaced Aiden most trusted executives with like the Gamma, the Delta and the stupid head Omega with Mighty’s Loyal warriors. I needed to know everything going on in the pack so Mighty’s attack on the pack can come smoothly. But something wasn’t right.The first problem was when I tried to connect to Smoke but I couldn’t reach him. I started to panic because his connection was weak and unstable. If something had happened to Aiden, I would have known but it felt like Aiden was okay and his wolf was not.I was extremely shock when Aiden finally made it known that he has been poisoning his wolf just to be in control of his body. I never thought he could go that far.I’ve been dizzy all day and by the time the afternoon sun began to dip, I noticed a subtle and undeniable change in

    Aiden's PovI leaned back in my chair, I stared back into dark sky outside the window. The thought of Shenaya came to me. I couldn’t face her father since I was still trapped in my body and I haven’t even heard of anything from her. She would have given birth by now but she didn’t reach out to me to tell me anything about my pup.How could she? I accused her of carrying a bastard child even though I knew she had no one else but me. Talking about bastard child, I wasn’t sure if Skylar’s pup belonged to me. I had never caught her with someone else but I couldn’t help but feel it that she was seeing someone else. That was why I had Lucas and his men followed her every move ever since she announced the pregnancy to me.The main reason why I wanted them to follow her was majorly because I wanted her to slip up and reveal where she had hidden the concoction that bound Smoke to her but so far, they found nothing and it’s beginning to frustrate me.I raised turned my head to look in the direc

One thing I know for sure is that the pregnancy she claimed was mine wasn’t mine but I’ll pretend pending the time I break free from this shackles. What could be that shadow?Just as I stood up from the edge of the bed, a sudden thought struck me like a lightning bolt. If Skylar was cunning enough to keep something hidden, where would she keep it? She would keep it somewhere I would never think to look, somewhere hidden, somewhere she knew I would never suspect. What if it’s in this room with room with me? I mean it’s an obvious and simple place. I would never think she would put something as powerful in the same room we shared.I scanned the room with fresh eyes. I started my search from the most obvious places like the closet, the bathroom, the bookshelves, my personal library, I even checked through the drawers because it’s been a while I used the library. I couldn’t

    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.

    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

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.

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 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

He was in a coma, lying in the infirmary, his once formidable strength now silent and still. The doctor had said his wolf, Smoke, had sacrificed himself to save Aiden’s human side. The blow was heavy, but I knew it was what Smoke would have wanted—to keep Aiden here with me, even if only in part. But without his wolf, Aiden was more vulnerable than ever, and the emptiness gnawed at me with each passing day.My, Lily, had fallen silent in grief, her sorrow mingling with my nominee's loss of her mate had hit her hard, and now, in the long hours I spent patrolling the pack grounds and handling pack business, I felt her absence as acutely as Aiden’s.In Aiden’s stead, I had taken charge of the pack, managing the day-to-day challenges of leadership while also keeping a wary eye

Darkness wrapped itself around the cold stone walls, and Alenjro’s muffled gasps for air echoed within. The silence in between each scream was thick, and heavy with the weight of what was unsaid. I could hear him attempting to hold back his agony, but it was useless. His control shattered each time I pressed the searing iron that was already wrapped in wolfbane vines, against his skin. “Ahhhh!” Alenjro’s scream filled the room again, slicing through the air, raw and broken. A satisfying chill crawled up my spine as I watched his body convulse against the restraints, his skin blistering from the poison.When his scream died down to a low moan, he lifted his head, eyes glazed with defiance but flecked with terror.“Do you think this will erase what you are?” he spat, a mocking tone laced with an undertone of pain. “Do you think it’ll change the fact that your ‘precious’ son was father
