They ruined her, taking away the only thing she cared most about and now she was going to take revenge, she was going to destroy them all, crumble them from the inside and triumph over their destruction, while she watch them beg for mercy before drawing their last breath. It's payback time and no one will be left untouched, not even her mate.

I wasn't hundred percent certain, but remembering that night, the moment Aunt Evelyn was slaughtered in cold blood by the wolves that had ambushed us that night, and pairing with his warning now, he was probably involved in her death. How else would he have known about her?The rising chill in the room as the sun hid away from the sky did nothing to fade off the burning hate building inside me. Once again, I assured myself that I hadn't made a mistake joining forces with Marcus. If Kane was out of the way, I would be free, and maybe solve a little of the mystery that was my Aunt's death.If in any case I were to be betrayed by Marcus who I could begrudgingly agree with Kane on the fact that he was a dangerous shifter wolf, I had to protect myself. I shouldn't trust anyone here; not if I wanted to survive. “Agreed,” Amra uttered in my head, her voice steeled with an angry resolve. T
Chapter 11Threats and TerrorsIt didn't take a while before I was summoned by him again. This time, he was in the palace library, taking sweet time to analyze different books on a particular shelf. I definitely knew he felt my presence as potent as I felt his, even though he didn't acknowledge it in the slightest by turning to give me a glance. “One of your men said you called for me?” I asked, puffing my chest up with an aura of confidence as I watched him move. His hands stopped over a particular book, drawing it out. He didn't acknowledge my words. I was sure he heard me, but his stinging silence pulsed my nerves with annoyance. “We have certain rules in this Kingdom, Sophia,” he began, flipping the pages of the book. His eyes were sternly locked into it, but I could feel the waves of cold repulse emitting him on a different intensity, like he was still angry at me. This wasn't going to be a continuation of our small spit-off earlier, was it?“Do you want to know what happens
Chapter Ten:Under the SurfaceThe faint light of the early morning filtered through the drawn curtains of my room as I sat on the edge of the bed, the events of the night before still lingering in my thoughts. The meeting with Marcus, the pact I’d made in the shadows of the forest, and the weight of it all pressed against my chest, threatening to crush me under its magnitude.I had to be careful. Every move, every word, had to be measured. Marcus might be playing his game, but I was caught in a dangerous web, with Kane at the center of it all. Before I could gather my thoughts, a knock at the door interrupted the quiet. My stomach turned. There was only one person who ever called on me with such intent, and I wasn’t ready for it.I opened the door to find one of the younger pack members standing there, their face tense with apprehension. “The Alpha requests your presence in the main hall,” they said softly, before quickly retreating down the hallway.I took a deep breath, steeling m
Chapter NineSecrets in the DarkAs Kane and I walked side by side, the tension between us was almost tangible, though it was no longer the heat of a fight—it was something colder, a sense of duty forced by circumstance. Even after all he had done to solidify his role as Alpha, I couldn’t shake the resentment simmering beneath the surface. Every victory he claimed felt like it came at a cost I was forced to bear.Kane’s words echoed in my mind: *He’ll be back. And when he does… I’ll be ready.* But a part of me wasn’t so sure that I wanted him to be.The forest was dark and silent as we made our way back to the heart of the pack’s territory. Kane was still breathing heavily, though he tried to mask his exhaustion behind his stoic gaze. I found myself wanting to keep my distance from him, wanting to let my own thoughts settle without his presence lingering beside me like a shadow.“Are you planning to stand by me in this, Sophia?” he asked, his voice low but firm, piercing through the s
Chapter Eight:The Breaking of DawnThe clearing fell into silence as the last of the wolves dispersed, leaving Kane and me alone under the pale moonlight. The tension lingered in the air, thick and oppressive, wrapping around us as we stood there, neither of us moving. I could see the weight of the coming fight etched into every line of Kane’s face, the hard set of his jaw, the storm clouding his eyes.Tomorrow at dawn, Kane would face his father. And if he lost… no, I couldn’t even consider the possibility of him not losing, he had to. I knew how much he’d sacrificed to claim his place as Alpha, how hard he’d fought to protect this pack and I wanted to crush that, his pride and finally get my revenge. “Kane,” I murmured, stepping closer. “Are you… prepared for this?”He turned to me, his gaze softening for a brief moment, the fire of resolve flickering behind his eyes. “I don’t have a choice, Sophia. This fight… it’s something I’ve known might happen ever since I took over. My fath
Chapter Seven:Unforeseen BetrayalThe journey back to the pack’s territory was silent, but it wasn’t the comfortable kind. I could feel the weight of Kane’s unspoken words as he walked beside me, his gaze fixed on the path ahead. Even though he’d thanked me, his rigid stance and the barely veiled frustration in his expression told me he wasn’t pleased with how things had played out. But I didn’t regret stepping in. If I hadn’t, I was almost certain Lucas would have pushed him past the breaking point.As we neared the boundary of the pack’s land, the dense forest surrounding us seemed to close in, the trees stretching their shadows across the path like dark fingers. Something about the night felt… wrong. A chill crept up my spine, and I caught Kane’s wary glance over his shoulder, his sharp eyes scanning the trees. “Do you sense that?” he murmured, voice barely a whisper.I nodded, though I wasn’t sure what exactly I was sensing. My instincts—raw and new as they were—seemed to be scr
Chapter Six: Confrontation with the Rival Alpha“Well, well, what do we have here?” The voice was thick with arrogance, its cold timbre cutting through the darkness.My heart froze. Standing before us was a towering man, his dark eyes glinting with malice. He exuded a powerful aura, one that made the air feel thick with tension. This had to be him—the rival Alpha who Kane was so intent on handling. But here he was, already waiting for us, as if he’d anticipated our every move.Kane’s posture immediately shifted, his stance tense, every muscle coiled as he stepped slightly in front of me. He didn’t have to say it, but his stance screamed a silent warning: *Don’t make a move.*The rival Alpha’s gaze flicked from Kane to me, his smirk widening. “Ah, Kane, I expected you to come alone. But you’ve brought… company,” he said, his eyes lingering on me. “And such a delicate one at that.”Kane’s jaw clenched, his voice a growl. “Leave her out of this, Lucas.”Lucas’s grin only grew wider, as
Chapter Five:Tension and BetrayalSOPHIA'S POVI stood by the massive wooden doors, watching Kane from the corner of my eye. He was in the middle of a tense conversation with a messenger from a neighboring pack, one that I’d never heard of before. His voice was calm, too calm for what I knew was a serious situation. "Tell him we’ll handle it," Kane said, his tone hard as stone. His eyes flickered to mine for just a second before he turned away, his expression unreadable. "I don’t take kindly to threats on my land."I had no idea what the messenger had said, but it didn’t matter. I wasn’t going to stay here and be Kane’s prisoner much longer. Every second I was with him, I could feel the walls around me closing in tighter. But today… today something was different. The way he looked at me when he thought I wasn’t paying attention—there was something in those eyes that made my skin crawl and my heart race, though I couldn’t name it. "Don’t even think about it," Kane warned suddenly, h
Chapter Four: A Taste of Fire POV: SOPHIA The brightness streaming through the window hit my eyes hard, dragging me out of sleep. I blinked, pushing against the soft bedding beneath me—a bed I hadn’t chosen, in a place I never wanted to be. The scent of his pack house clung to the air, an irritating reminder of who claimed control here. I took a long breath, letting the resentment simmer inside me. Amra stirred, reminding me she was there, and I felt her quiet acceptance of the bond pulling us toward Kane. It didn’t matter that she could sense him as her mate. I wasn’t falling for any bond—especially not one that belonged to Kane. The door creaked open, and there he was. Kane leaned against the door frame, the same arrogant confidence in his stance, like he owned everything in this room, including me. My glare only seemed to amuse him, and I hated the smirk that curled on his lips. “Comfortable?” he asked, sounding almost too pleased. “Wouldn’t call it that,” I shot bac
CHAPTER ONE *Sophia’s POV* I tore through the dense woods, my legs slamming against the ground, heart pounding as if my life depended on it—because it did. Somewhere behind me, a howl sliced through the silence, echoing through the trees, then… nothing. I strained to hear any movement, any sign of what might be following me, but only an eerie, unnatural silence lingered in the air. My sprint slowed, my body hesitating, senses on high alert as I scanned my surroundings. Then, a flicker—a blur—whisked past the corner of my eye. I whipped around, but whatever it was had vanished, leaving only the unsettling notion that I might be seeing things. Swallowing hard, I took a step back, nervously twisting in every direction. A low, menacing growl rumbled behind me, and a cold wave of dread washed over me. I turned, heart racing, and found myself face-to-face with a wolf. Its piercing green eyes glared at me, hunger gleaming in its stare. My fingers fumbled in my bag for the pepper spray, h...
