MY SAVIOR.
He stood in the doorway, shoulders squared, eyes burning with something fierce and undeniable. The silence in the hall was suffocating, no one daring to breathe.
Not even me. But I was more breathless from seeing him again.
“Stop the ceremony,” He repeated “This wedding is put on hold.”
Gasps rippled through the crowd, Luca’s face twisting into disbelief and fury. “Father, what the fuck are you doing?”
Julian didn’t answer his son. His eyes locked on mine—and in that moment, everything else fell away.
He was here.
For me.
Even though I had no idea what came next, a soaring feeling of bliss came over my chest.
Father stepped forward, at the same time I stepped away from Luca. He shot m

CHAPTER 12I WAS TOO SHAKEN TO MOVE!A hand, strong and unyielding, caught Luca’s wrist mid-air.The grip belonged to Julian.His eyes blazed with fury, his presence swallowing the clearing like a storm rolling in. “Touch her, and you’ll regret the day you were born.”Luca yanked his arm free, rage and humiliation battling in his expression. “Why do you care?” His voice cracked. “She’s nothing to you, she's nothing at all.”Julian stepped between us, shielding me completely. “Now, that’s where you’re wrong.” His voice was low, dangerous. “What are you turning into? This is not how I raised you.”Julian’s presence was a force, an undeniable wave of dominance that sent chills through my spine. Luca, however, didn’t flinch. His body vibrated

CHAPTER 13DISAPPEAR JUST LIKE POOF! That's what I wanted to do.The way he stared at me made my knees weak, like I would crumble to the ground the next minute, and I'd never be able to ride again.“Alpha…” I managed to say, but he cut me short before I could form the words.“Shhh!" He cooed in my ears. “But I'm not going to force anything, I promise. You came to me that night, and you gave yourself to me." He looked deep into my eyes, “I'll make sure that wasn't the last time, Raven."The burning stare in his eyes made me want to melt. I can't hold this on for much longer, it's killing me.I jerked away from him at that point, hoping that the distance would help keep me sane. “Alpha, what happened that night was a mistake, okay? I was carried away by the pain." I blurted out.It didn't hel

CHAPTER 14ONE WORD, yet it made me feel like I had done a mission more impossible than that of ‘Mission Impossible’.I wasn’t sure what I expected after asking him to stay. Maybe for him to smirk, to taunt me with that knowing look he always wore. Or maybe for him to slip into bed beside me, filling the empty space that somehow felt colder in his absence.But Julian didn’t do either of those things.He stared at me for a moment, something unreadable flickering in his gaze. Then, slowly, he exhaled, his jaw tightening as if making some difficult decision.And then he turned away. "I can’t," he murmured.My breath caught in my throat.I opened my mouth to say something, anything, but before I could, he was already at the door."Sleep, Raven," he said without looking back. And then&md

CHAPTER 15A LIVING DEAD! That's what I was. I sat before the mirror, staring away into space, brushing out the knots in my hair with shaky fingers.I should have never told him.The weight of my confession to Julian—about Luca and Elena’s betrayal—settled heavy in my chest. I had spoken in the heat of the moment, lulled by the quiet safety of his presence, but now? Now, I feared what he would do with that knowledge.What if he exposed it?What if he humiliated her in front of the entire pack?What if… he had planned something far worse?My stomach twisted at the thought.But no—Julian wasn’t like that. He was dangerous, unpredictable, but he had never been needlessly cruel to me. Still, I couldn't shake the unease.I slipped into a modest black dress, one befitting a formal meeting, then made my way to the council hall.The tension in the room was immediate.Luca’s glare was a knife against my skin, sharp and unrelenting. I ignored him with all my will, settling into my seat, but m

CHAPTER 16SLEEP ELUDED ME.I turned onto my side, then my back, then my other side.The blankets tangled around my legs, the pillow felt too soft, too firm, too wrong.I couldn’t sleep. Not after what tonight, not after what Julian had said."I couldn't bear to see another man around you."I squeezed my eyes shut. Ughhhhh!Damn him.Damn that voice of his, smooth and low, curling around my thoughts like a shadow I couldn’t shake.I could still feel the weight of his hands on me, the heat of his touch lingering even now.“You want to fight this, but you can't…”A shiver ran down my spine.I should have pulled away.I should have told him no.But I didn&rsquo

CHAPTER 17I WAS PARALYZED.One by the deep, shuddering need that made my stomach churn, and my heart race so fast that it was almost impossible to breathe. His hand was barely on my waist, and yet, I felt like it belonged there, like I had been claimed in ways I couldn't fathom.Two, was by the noise we heard. This crippled me.I pushed him away from me immediately, with a strength I didn't know I had, my heart hammering in my chest as we both turned towards the sound.Panic surged through my veins. If someone had seen us then…What if it was Luca?Or Elena?I swallowed, straining my eyes further into the dark. Then, we heard the voices again.Julian didn’t think twice. He gripped my wrist, firm yet gentle, pulling me into the shadows behind a thic

CHAPTER 18MY BLOOD PRESSURE SKYROCKETED.The darkness enveloped me, my breaths so rough that it tore through my chest as I struggled against the iron grip on my wrist. My heart pounded, my body tensed, and my mind made up to fight, until I caught his scent. It was him. A slow, shuddering exhale left me just as a low, familiar voice murmured, “It’s me.”Julian. Relief flooded through my chest. “What the hell, Julian?” My voice was breathless. “You scared the life out of me.”His grip didn’t loosen. If anything, he stepped closer, his presence overpowering in the small space.“I had to,” he murmured. “I couldn't watch you walk away.”I scoffed, trying to ignore the heat creeping up my neck, and the goosebumps. “That’s not an excuse to abduct me.”Even in the darkness, I could feel him smirk.He reached out, and I held my breath. However, I never felt his touch. Instead, the room lit up as he flipped the switch on. I scoffed.And he smiled. “What? I can touch you if you want me to."

CHAPTER 19THE AIR IN MY ROOM FELT HEAVIER THAN EVER BEFORE. Julian was just about to leave when Father stepped inside. The moment he saw Julian, he stiffened, his eyes flickering between the Alpha and me. His gaze darkened.I remained frozen in place. Did he hear anything? Julian remained composed, his hands clasped behind his back, but there was a quiet tension between them.“Alpha,” my father greeted stiffly, his voice neutral, but laced with suspicion.Julian gave a small nod, unbothered. “Beta.”I couldn't help but wonder if this was just an act. How could he not be bothered that my father had walked in on us? Or am I the only one losing my mind? My father’s gaze narrowed. “Why are you here?”Julian glanced at me briefly, then turned back to my father, his expression unreadable. “I was speaking with Raven.”I felt my breath hitch. Not your daughter, just Raven. Why did that feel good? My father’s brows furrowed. “Speaking?” He crossed his arms. “And apologizing, from what I o

CHAPTER 51RAVEN'S POVMATE!The moment Julian’s wolf roared “Mate,” I felt my world tilt. Exhaustion, pain, and the weight of everything I had endured crashed over me like a wave. My body gave out, my knees buckling as darkness threatened to consume me. But before I hit the ground, strong arms caught me. Julian’s scent enveloped me, familiar yet intensified by the bond now surging between us.For the first time, it was real—unfiltered, unbroken.Tears welled in my eyes as I forced myself to look up at him. His hands trembled as they held me, his eyes wild with emotion. “You finally feel it?” I whispered, my voice barely more than a breath. Before he could answer, my vision blurred, and the world faded to black.I woke to the scent of herbs and candle smoke. The soft rustling of fabric and hushed whispers surrounded me. Blinking against the dim light, I recognized the healer’s chambers. My body ached, but it was a distant pain—numbed by something far stronger.The moment my eyes flut

CHAPTER 50JULIAN'S POVHELL—The days without Raven felt like hell. The days that passes without seeing her smile, hearing her voice, and just feeling that undeniable presence of hers that kept me grounded—were unbearable.I had always prided himself on being strong, composed, a leader who stood unshaken in the face of adversity. But now? I felt hollow. Empty. And I couldn't even hide it. I wasn't willing to try.It had been four days since Raven left for the woods, and each passing hour gnawed at my sanity. I had tried to convince myself she would return, that she had promised me, but that promise felt like a whisper in a storm. I couldn't eat, couldn't sleep. Every time I closed my eyes, all I saw was her walking away, disappearing into the trees, vanishing like a ghost.What if she never came back?The thought was a dagger to my chest, twisting deeper each time I imagined a world without her. I had already failed once—failed ny wife, failed Luca, failed as a leader. I couldn't a

CHAPTER 49READY OR NOT?These words repeated in my head over and over again as I got ready to leave the next morning. Lucian and Atena were at the borders to see me off.Atena reached out for my hand, her eyes holding a gaze I couldn't quite explain. “Let the moon goddess guide you and Julian. It might seem tough, but the path shall become clearer." My heart melted. “Thank you. For everything." I said, genuinely meaning it.She nodded at me.Lucian gave me a small nod. “Well, tell your mate I said he's one lucky champ." He said with a small smile.I couldn't help a smile of mine. “I will." “Stay safe, okay? I hope to see you again." He added. “I wish you didn't have to leave actually." He said, his voice reduced to a whisper.I laughed lightly, but said nothing. I couldn't wait to return, I had missed Julian a lot.“Alright. I'll see you soon." I said.They bid me goodbye, and I finally set out to leave.The woods stretched before me, endless and thick, but I felt no hesitation. I

CHAPTER 48HAUNTED.The darkness surrounded me like a suffocating shroud, pressing in on all sides. A chilling wind howled through the trees, whispering words I couldn’t understand. I turned in every direction, searching for something—someone—but all I saw were twisted shadows stretching toward me, clawing at my skin with unseen hands.A figure stood in the distance, barely visible through the thick mist. Their voice was like an echo in my mind, deep and resonant.“Your journey is not over yet.”The moment the words reached me, pain shot through my wrist, searing hot, as if something branded my skin. I gasped and clutched my arm, but the pain only intensified. The symbol burned bright blue against the darkness, pulsing in time with my heartbeat.I jolted awake with a sharp inhale, my body drenched in sweat. My chest rose and fell rapidly as my eyes darted around the dimly lit room. I was back in Atena’s home, lying on a soft bed. The scent of herbs and aged wood filled the air. My wri

CHAPTER 47A PROPHECY?With my heart in my hands, I asked, “What prophecy?" She held my gaze. "Written deep in those scrolls is an ancient saying which somehow metamorphosed into a prophecy to be fulfilled in our time.When I said nothing, she continued. “A prophecy that speaks of a forbidden bond—one that, when realized, will unlock the true potential of the werewolf race.”My breath caught in my throat. “A forbidden bond?”Atena nodded. “Two wolves, meant to be together, but forced apart by unnatural forces. Their unity would have changed everything… but someone feared that power.”My blood ran cold. “You’re saying this… has to do with Julian and me?”Atena nodded. “You and Julian were never meant to be ordinary. Your connection was forged by fate itself. But someone interfered.”A deep unease settled in my stomach. “Interfered how?”Atena closed the book. “There was one among your own people who feared the prophecy, who sought to prevent it from coming true. A spell was cast—dark

CHAPTER 46RAVEN'S POV DEEP INTO THE WOODS.The moment I stepped past the border of the forest, the air thickened, wrapping around me like unseen tendrils. The towering trees stretched endlessly into the dark, their branches twisting like skeletal fingers. The silence was unsettling—not the calm quiet of nature, but an eerie stillness, as if the forest itself was holding its breath.I exhaled, pressing forward, following the invisible pull that had led me here. It tugged at my soul, an unspoken command I didn’t understand but couldn’t ignore. The further I went, the more distant the outside world felt. The forest had its own rhythm, its own presence—watchful, ancient, alive.The sun dipped below the horizon, and the darkness thickened. Then I saw them.I was barely seconds into the forest, were they waiting for me?I turned immediately, my instincts rising. I could run back to the pack. Maybe asking to do this alone was a bad idea. I could really use Julian's help right now.However,

CHAPTER 45JULIAN'S POV FLASHBACKI leaned back in my chair, the dim lighting of the bar casting long shadows over my features. The woman in my lap trailed kisses along my jawline, her hands wandering with an eagerness I barely acknowledged. I had picked her out of the crowd without much thought, seeking nothing but a temporary escape from the ghosts that haunted me.But as her lips pressed against me, something inside me recoiled, like I was repulsed. The touch was wrong. It wasn’t what I wanted. It wasn’t who I wanted.I grabbed her wrists and pulled back, my expression darkening. "Get out."The woman blinked in confusion, her lips still parted from our unfinished kiss. "What? But I thought—""I said get out," I repeated, y voice laced with a growl. She rose to her feet, a disbelieved scoff escaping her lips. “I thought they were all rumors, turns out they were true after all." I shot her a glare, my eyes cold, but she didn't seem phased. A courageous one. "What does that mean?"

CHAPTER 44I KNEW WHAT I HAD TO DO.The words left my lips before I could second-guess them. Julian’s reaction was instant.“No,” he said sharply, shaking his head. “Absolutely not.”“Julian, listen to me—”“I don’t need to listen,” he snapped. “You’re not going into those woods alone.”I reached for his hand, pressing it against my wrist where the mark still burned. “It won’t stop,” I whispered. “You saw Dorian’s reaction. This isn’t just some random nightmare, Julian. It’s real.”His jaw clenched, his body taut with tension. He wanted to fight this. “More reason you shouldn't leave, Raven. Come on! All of the signs are there before you, and yet you want to walk right into the pit. That's reckless.”"Well, what else am I supposed to do?” I snapped, at the edge of losing control.He turned to me, his eyes softening. "We could just ignore this, act like none of it is happening. It'll stop eventually. If they realize they can't get to you, they'll give up.” I scoffed. "Easy for you to

CHAPTER 43THE TRUTH. I parted my lips to tell him the truth, but I was interrupted.A knock echoed in the room, and both of our attention was immediately captured. “Who's there?" Julian called.A voice returned an answer. “Alpha, there's a problem." The heavy urgency in his tone attested to his words.“Come in." Julian said, rising to his feet.The moment the scout burst into the room, his face pale and his breathing ragged, I knew our peace had been short-lived.Julian stiffened beside me, his muscles coiling with tension. "Speak," he commanded, his voice sharp as a blade."A rogue group, Alpha," the scout panted. "We noticed a rogue group. Near our borders. Their numbers are growing."My pulse quickened. The room went deadly silent.Julian exchanged a glance with me before turning back to the scout. "Reach out to the elders, arrange a council meeting. We meet now."Moments later, we were seated in the council chamber, the air thick with unease. Some of the elders believed these ro
