They had been arguing for what felt like an eternity, circling the same point over and over again. Alexander's voice was a constant hum, but Kael was too lost in his own thoughts to pay it any attention.“How can you even suggest that, Alexander?” Kael said, his voice low but sharp. The frustration in his tone was unmistakable. He wasn’t going to let this go. Not now, not ever.Alexander, always the more laid-back of the two, shrugged as if it were all some joke. His relaxed demeanour contrasted so sharply with Kael’s intensity that it only added to the brewing storm between them. "I'm not suggesting anything, Kael. I'm just trying to see the bigger picture. The wolves want to celebrate. They want something to look forward to. This is more than just some party, you know. It's a tradition, a way to unite them, bring them back together a
Author povArianna’s eyes shot open, her heart hammering in her chest like a wild stallion trying to break free. The sunlight streamed through the heavy curtains, casting a golden glow that made the room feel a bit too warm, too intimate.She blinked, trying to focus, only to find herself in the most unexpected place: Alpha Kael’s bed. Alpha Kael’s bed.A cold chill crawled down her spine as she jerked up, her breath hitching as panic swept over her. What in the hell was she doing here? Her memories from last night were fragmented—flashes of a tense hallway, the unmistakable sight of Kael and Elaine tangled up together, and the crushing weight of jealousy that had practically knocked the air out of her. And then… nothing.She threw a hand to her forehead. Did she faint? She must have fainted. No, no, no, this wasn’t happening.Her heart was still racing when the door to the room creaked open, and she froze, panic surging through her.“Ah, good, you’re awake,” came Kael’s low voice fro
Elaine pov Successfully, I will scratch up everything that sick lady thought she had. The attention of kael will be fully mine. Let's not even talk about his structure that's captivating. I breathed heavily, leaning back into my chair. A smile escaped my lips when the screen of my phone flashed on, and his picture was my wallpaper. As I rose from the chair, my heart skipped a beat. I couldn't believe my eyes - Alpha Kael wanted to take me out? I felt like I was walking on clouds, my feet barely touching the ground. I quickly grabbed my phone and dialled his number, my hands shaking with excitement. But to my surprise, he didn't answer. Instead, the call went straight to voicemail. I didn't let that dampen my spirits, though. I was too busy trying to process what was happening. Alpha Kael, the man who had been ignoring me for days, suddenly wanted to take me out? I felt a mix of emotions - shock, excitement, and a hint of scepticism. What could have prompted this sudden change o
Kael POVI stood by the gatehouse, my fingers tapping against the rough stone wall. The guards were stationed in their usual positions, standing alert, yet there was an unspoken tension in the air that seemed to ripple out from me. I couldn't shake the feeling that something was coming, something that had been building for days now, like a storm on the horizon. Gus had just handed me the car keys, a small, insignificant thing that he passed with a nod as we discussed the need for more patrols. But the conversation felt hollow, like I was reaching for something that had slipped through my fingers.It was then, in the midst of my thoughts, that I heard it. The low rumble of an engine. It started faintly, growing louder as it approached. I turned my head, narrowing my eyes against the setting sun as the silhouette of a car appeared on the horizon. The gates were still closed, the usual routine intact, but something about the speed of the car caught my attention. The driver was not slowin
Elaine POV The cold marble floors of the hallway beneath my boots felt like ice against my soles, each step harder to take as I dragged my bag behind me, the wheels scraping against the floor with an irritating screech. I could hear my mother’s voice trailing behind me, loud and insistent, but I didn’t care. Not anymore. "Elaine!" she called, her voice tight with a mixture of anger and disbelief, like I was the one causing all the chaos. "Don't you dare ignore me!" I didn’t respond. Why should I? It was the same old song, the same tired argument. I had been in this house for too long, and all I wanted was to escape, to leave everything behind. But they never let me. I felt the pull in my chest, the gnawing desire to break free, but I couldn't yet. Not until I was truly free of this place, of these people who only saw me as something to control. My parents, my father especially, had always treated me like I was some tool, some pawn in their chess game. They only cared about thei
Alexander pov“Arianna's fate is already sealed. She’s already dead in the eyes of the world, Kael. You’ve broken her in ways I can’t even begin to understand. And yet, you still treat her like some pawn in your game. It’s sick. It’s beneath you. You’re a man with power, with options, and yet you’ve chosen this. You’ve chosen to twist her, break her, and push her to the edge of sanity."Kael’s lips curled into a mocking smile, his eyes cold, devoid of any remorse. "Is that so? You think I owe her something, Alexander?" He stepped closer, his tone dropping to a deadly whisper, as if daring Alexander to challenge him further. "I don't owe anyone anything. Certainly not her."The words hit like a slap, and Alexander clenched his fists harder, his knuckles whitening. The anger roiling within him threatened to boil over, but he forced himself to steady his breath, to ground himself."You’re a coward," Alexander spat, his voice trembling with barely-contained rage. "You have everything, and
Author povArianna’s eyes welled with tears again, but she didn’t let them fall. She nodded weakly, her throat tight, her heart breaking all over again.But Kael wasn’t done.“Get me a glass of wine,” he ordered, his tone cold, detached, as if nothing had happened between them. “You’ve got work to do.”Arianna opened her mouth to protest, but then she closed it again. What was the point? There was no point in trying to argue. She had already lost whatever ground she might have gained. She had already lost him.As she turned and walked toward the garden house, her steps slow and hesitant, she could hear Kael’s voice behind her, the bitter edge still present.“Don’t take too long,” he called. “And don’t think I’ve forgotten what you’ve done.”Arianna didn’t answer. She didn’t know how to. All she could do was keep walking, feeling the weight of his words pressing down on her, the promise of her punishment looming like a dark cloud.Arianna returned to the garden moments later, a glass o
Author povAlpha Kael walked into the garden with the weight of the world pressing down on his shoulders. The sun had already begun to set, casting the courtyard in golden hues, but it did little to ease the fire that raged inside of him. His temper was on a short fuse, fueled by the endless whispers, the unresolved anger at Arianna, and the strain of leadership that seemed to demand more than he had to give. He needed a moment of peace, just a brief respite where he could breathe.The garden was empty save for a few scattered flowers and a lone stone bench beneath an ancient oak tree. The breeze swayed the branches gently, offering the promise of serenity. Kael, still in his full regalia, clenched his fists, pushing his frustration down as he made his way toward the bench. The thought of sitting there, even just for a few moments, felt like a small act of rebellion against the demands of his position. He needed to reclaim some semblance of himself.But then he saw her.Arianna stood
Arianna pov My breath caught in my throat as I stood in the center of the room, the tension thickening with every passing second. The entire pack had been talking, murmuring under their breath about the decision to suspend the rituals meant for the alpha’s redemption, and I felt it like a storm closing in. Every whisper, every footstep on the stone floor, echoed in my mind. The heavy silence that had settled in the room only made the pressure on my chest worse. I turned my gaze to the new head maid who stood before me, her eyes sharp and assessing as she scrutinized every person in the room. Her silver hair was pulled tightly into a knot, and the wrinkles on her face only made her expression look even more unforgiving. She held a long, cold rod, something I couldn’t quite name but knew instantly could bring pain if she decided to use it. Her gaze locked on mine, piercing through me like a blade. “Are you with us, Arianna?” she asked, her voice cool but laden with an unspoken threa
Arianna's POV I woke up to the scent of freshly baked cupcakes wafting through the air. I snapped my eyes open and flexed my arms, feeling a mix of excitement and dread. Today was my 17th birthday.I ran a hand through my hair as I sluggishly rose to my feet and dragged my legs towards the bathroom for a quick shower. As I got dressed, my mind wandered back to the conversation I had with my father five years ago, He had taken me to the old oak tree in the woods, his eyes serious and somber."Arianna, you are growing up, and it is high time you knew the truth about your fate," he had said, his voice low and gravelly. "When you turn 18, you will be required to fulfill an ancient prophecy. You will be the key to unlocking the werewolf king's true power."I remembered feeling like I had been punched in the gut. A sacrifice? Me? I had found it extremely hard to believe that my life would end when I turned 18th. From that day on, I slowly reminded myself each day that my days had been num...
