Born For The Alpha 41: Will You Have Me Back?
“This pack has a goal,” Cain pronounced with authority. “To unite all the packs under a single Alpha. And within this unified pack, we will establish a monarchy, beginning with me. Then my son will take over. In this new era, humans will learn of our existence. We will rule over them. Our members are already everywhere. The only thing left is the unity of the packs and the elimination of your kind.” His eyes fell disdainfully on Karina. “The full prophecy must be found. The moon child and her sister must be eliminated. The complete prophecy is rumored to be with your pack. That’s why my son had to join that school and get close to you.” Karina sobbed softly, regret and brokenness in her every movement. “It’s nothing personal,” Jacob said, his tone cold. “You should’ve stayed loyal to your pack.” “My Alpha is cruel,” Karina cried out, frustration lacing her words. “You know that already.” “Not my problem,” Jacob responded flatly. Cain let out a mocking laugh. “You’ve lived lon

Hours passed, leading into the night. The full moon had not lost its shape, round and glowing bright as it cast its brilliance onto the earth. Somewhere in the eastern region, mystic creatures—werewolves—wandered far into the surrounding forests in their hunt for food. Among the werewolves, distinct ones glowed, marking them as werewolf vampires. Together, they hunted down unfortunate animals, gathered them, and devoured the fresh meat as a pack. Soon after they were done, Gillow, the alpha of the pack, with a glowing form and intense ruby eyes, began to sniff the air. The others sensed that he was smelling something and emulated him, but he was already advancing further into the bush. The pack followed him, and soon they discovered a retreating werewolf. Gillow immediately led a pursuit, and a chase ensued as they advanced behind the escaping werewolf who spotted a light brown color. The alpha of the pursuing pack rapidly gained on the escaping werewolf. Heavy thuds pounded the e

The cornered spy, Jack, locked eyes with Raina—his renounced mate—his gaze intense. Gillow could sense that Jack was attempting to convey something. The Alpha listened closely, and within moments, he realized the message was telepathic. Jack was communicating with Raina. Jack: “Setting my betrayal aside, we both know you weren’t supposed to hunt tonight.” A confused expression crossed Raina’s face as she stared at him. Gillow, already alert, focused on listening to her response. Raina: “I changed my mind because you refused to tell me why you insisted I not join the pack for tonight’s hunt.” Jack: “That was for your safety. The least I can do now is keep you alive.” Raina’s disbelief was evident. “What are you talking about?” she asked, incredulous. Before Jack could respond, Gillow’s instincts kicked in. His sharp, ruddy eyes scanned the surrounding bushes. The air was thick with tension, and within seconds, he had Jack in his grip. But it wasn’t just Jack that concerned him. H

Inside the dimly lit cell, Arda sat hunched in a corner, her fingers trembling as she typed on her hidden phone. Her message was simple but desperate:“Alpha. Help. Locked in cell. Jacob's pack. Me, Karina, Chester. Punish us if you must, but please... don’t kill us. Please.”She hesitated, her thumb hovering over the send button. Doubts gnawed at her—would Gillow even care after everything? But the alternative was staying here, at Cain's mercy. With a sharp inhale, she pressed send, clutching the phone tightly against her chest as if it were her last lifeline.After a moment, she slipped the phone back between her breasts, ensuring it was concealed. She chose not to tell Karina or Chester about the message. If it failed, she didn’t want to crush what little hope they had left.Her phone buzzed almost immediately, causing her heart to pound. She spun toward the wall, hiding her movements, and glanced at the screen. The message was from Gillow. It was blank.A wave of relief mixed with

Karina sat in the corner of the dimly lit cell, her knees drawn to her chest. The low light cast long shadows across her face, accentuating the lines of worry. Her voice broke the suffocating silence."Arda, now I think you should have contacted the Alpha." she whispered, her tone raw with fear. "I shudder to imagine Cain's execution of his evil plans for us. I know you do too. We all do."Arda froze, her back pressed against the cold wall. She clenched her fists, refusing to meet Karina’s gaze.Karina pressed on, her words tumbling out in desperation. "I’m scared, Arda. Scared of what Gillow will do to me and Chester. He’ll punish you, yes, but we—" Her voice cracked. "We’ll be slaughtered."Chester, pacing the length of the cell, nodded grimly. "She’s right. Whatever punishment the Alpha dishes out for you, we’ll pay the ultimate price. But maybe... maybe if he knew how we feel, he’d show mercy."Karina snorted bitterly. "Mercy? Do you think Gillow knows the meaning of the word? We’

The next night came cloaked in an eerie stillness, broken only by the metallic clang of the cell doors opening. Cain strode in, flanked by his men, his presence a toxic mix of arrogance and cruelty. “Well, well,” he said, his voice smooth and condescending, “it’s time for a special treat. Tonight, you’ll witness the unification ceremony between the Northern and Western packs.” Arda stepped forward, her voice trembling but resolute. “Where’s Jacob?” Cain’s lips twisted into a mocking grin. “My son?” He leaned in, relishing her frustration. “He’s busy enjoying his honeymoon.” Arda’s heart sank, her fleeting hope of reaching Jacob shattered. She had prayed for a chance to speak to him, to appeal to the part of him not yet consumed by his father’s influence if it existed. But now, that chance was far from reach. "But don't look so sad, he is somewhere around. With so much going on, he can't afford to be far from the pack. After Gillow's defeat, we can all have a sigh of relief." "You

The atmosphere crackled with tension as Gillow dominated Cain’s domain with his presence.His expression was stone cold, his presence radiating power, eyes blazing crimson in confrontation.Cain's stood at the center of his territory, his smirk a blend of mockery and unease, his ruby eyes as an alpha, matching Gillow's.In this confrontation, the werewolves eyes had turned to various shades of colors, matching their ranks in the pack. Low snarls and visible dark veins threatened to break loose. The look was thesame with Gillow's daunting frame as he bravely stood, surrounded in the enemy territory.“You’re not welcome here,” Cain growled, his words sharp and dismissive.“I’m not here for your welcome,” Gillow replied, his voice low but firm. “I’m here for my people. Release them. Now.”Cain glanced toward the three prisoners bound tightly to poles. Their faces were pale with fear and exhaustion. His laugh was cruel, resonating in the uneasy crowd.“Your people? They came here of their

The journey back to the Southern territory had been swift, the hum of the engine filling the heavy silence between them. Outside, the world rushed by in a blur, but inside the car, the tension was palpable, hanging in the air like an unspoken storm. Every stolen glance Arda dared to take at Gillow revealed nothing; his expression was a mask of stoic control, his crimson eyes focused on the road ahead.When they arrived, the grand estate loomed against the twilight sky, its towering walls offering both safety and a reminder of the power Gillow wielded. He exited the vehicle and moved to her side without a word, pulling open her door. Before Arda could protest or even gather her strength, he scooped her up effortlessly. His grip was firm, protective even, but careful as though she were fragile, a porcelain doll teetering on the edge of breaking.He carried her through the mansion’s grand entrance, the silence inside echoing their unspoken emotions.

Born For The Alpha 62: A New Path
Chapter Title: A New PathArda caught a glimpse of her newly manicured nails and smiled. She liked the way they looked, but the sight also brought back a memory—Gillow’s earlier refusal to let her fix them in the first place.“Alpha,” she said quietly.“Yes, mate?”“About my nails… Did you tell Karina to discourage me from fixing them?”Gillow didn’t even pretend to feign ignorance. “Sure.”Of course, he wouldn’t deny it. That was just how Gillow was.“She mentioned you were entertaining the idea during one of her sessions, so I told her if you tried it, I would have her head.”Arda’s heart skipped a beat. “But it wouldn’t have been her fault if she couldn’t stop me.”“True. But I didn’t care.”“That was mean, Alpha.”He chuckled. “I know. But… with my understanding today, you have my permission to do it. No more than twice every quarter of the year.”“Is it negotiable, considering I have the right to—”“Let’s not talk about rights now, mate. Let’s enjoy the moment and visit rights la
Born For The Alpha 61: A Kiss to Rewrite the Past
As the car rolled to a stop in the park’s parking lot, Arda took in the lively fast-approaching evening scene outside. People were scattered across the grounds, some walking, others lounging on benches, while children ran about, their laughter mingling with the rustling of the evening breeze. The atmosphere was warm, inviting—yet for her, this place held memories she wasn’t sure she wanted to relive.She reached for the door handle, but before she could push it open, Gillow's hand gently stopped her.“Allow me,” he said smoothly, a teasing glint in his eyes. “I want to be the perfect gentleman tonight.”She couldn’t help but smile at his playful tone. With that, he stepped out, walking around to her side. True to his word, he opened the door for her and extended his hand. She took it, feeling the strength in his grip as he helped her out.As he shut the door behind her, she noticed Gillow’s men discreetly taking strategic positions throughout the park. It was subtle but unmistakable—h
Born For The Alpha 60: New Memories Await
When Arda's nails were done, she admired the result, turning her hands under the light with a pleased smile. The polished, glossy sheen made the short length artificial fingers look elegant, and she felt an undeniable satisfaction. Gillow, watching her, chuckled softly. “They look perfect.”She grinned. “I agree. Thanks.”The beautician beamed when Gillow tipped her generously. “Thank you so much, sir!” she gushed, her gratitude evident.Gillow nodded in acknowledgment before guiding Arda out of the salon. As they settled into the car, she continued admiring her nails, twisting her fingers and tilting them at different angles. She had truly enjoyed the day so far.Gillow stole a glance at her, amused by her fascination. It pleased him that she was happy.Arda, however, soon realized she had no idea where they were heading. Lowering her hands, she turned to him.“Where are we going now?” she asked curiously.He smirked, eyes still on the road. “Has someone forgotten something?”“What?
Born For The Alpha 59: His Word, Her Choice
Gillow held her close, whispering words of encouragement into her ear. His voice was low, warm, and steady, a grounding presence against the storm of emotions she was struggling to control."It's okay, princess, everything will be fine," he murmured. Then, with a teasing lilt, he added, "Don't cry, or I will join you."The thought of Gillow crying was so absurd that a small chuckle escaped her, breaking through the lump in her throat. He liked that—her laughter, however faint—and pressed a kiss to her forehead, his lips lingering for a moment as if sealing the comfort between them.She was beginning to compose herself, and with a handkerchief from his pocket, he lightly dabbed her face, wiping away the traces of her earlier distress.Then, taking her hand in his firm yet gentle grasp, he led her toward the section for pedicures. The soft hum of music played in the background, blending with the quiet conversations and the rhythmic sound of water bubbling in foot spa basins. Without h

As the car rolled out of the school premises, Arda turned to Gillow, curiosity in her eyes. “Where are we going now?”“To transform your hair,” he said, a hint of amusement in his tone. “Did you think I was joking?”She perked up, excited. “Really? I like that. Thanks.” She gave him the address of the small salon where she usually got her hair done. It wasn’t fancy—just a low-end place with no air conditioning, but the stylists knew their craft, and they always gave her a discount.Gillow arched a brow. “We’ll be going somewhere else.”Arda frowned. “But I’ve been going there for years. They know me, and I always get a discount.”He smirked, clearly amused. “You’ll like the new place. Now that cost is no longer a problem, let’s do it right.”Arda liked the idea but felt a pang of guilt at ditching the people who had been doing her hair for years just because Gillow was paying better. She bit her lip, debating whether to protest further, but when they arrived at the salon, her argument

The professor’s voice finally broke through, thin and shaky. “B-but you’re so…young. I don’t under—” His eyes widened as a deeper realization struck. He stumbled back, his face ashen. “You’re a…vampire…” His trembling worsened. “Please…please don’t kill me, sir. I have a wife…children…two daughters and two sons”"And if a lecturer harrases your girls, would you like it?""I'm sorry, Sir. It...it won't happen again."Gillow’s voice was ice. “You’re fired, professor. You have until tomorrow to clear your office and vacate these premises.”The professor fell to his knees, desperation overtaking him. “Please, sir! This is the highest-paid university. My family depends on this job. I swear, I promise, it will never happen again!”Gillow didn’t flinch. His voice was cold as steel. “Direct your apologies to her.”The professor turned immediately to Arda, crawling toward her on his knees. “Madam, please, I am deeply sorry. It will never happen again. I swear it.”Gillow moved with lightning s

Arda trailed far behind Gillow, her legs struggling to keep up with his long, determined strides. The bright corridor of the administration building seemed to stretch endlessly before her, sunlight streaming through the tall windows, illuminating the polished floors. People passed by on their own errands, their chatter and footsteps filling the space, but all Arda could focus on was Gillow’s imposing figure moving steadily ahead.His shoulders were taut, his fists clenched at his sides, radiating a fury she didn’t dare interrupt. She wanted to call out to him, to ask him to slow down, but she swallowed the words. The thought of drawing the attention of the people around them, of exposing whatever this was in public, made her hesitate. Instead, she hurried as best as she could, her breaths coming in short, anxious gasps.By the time she reached the professor’s office, Gillow had already disappeared inside. The door was ajar, and she paused just outside, gripping the edge of the frame a
Born For The Alpha 55: Protectiveness Unleashed
Gillow reluctantly ended the kiss, his lips lingering near hers for a moment before he pulled back, a small smirk on his face. “We don’t want you being late for school, mate,” he said, his tone calm but teasing.Arda nodded, her fingers brushing her lips briefly as she followed him to the car. When she saw him heading for the driver’s side, her brows lifted in mild surprise, though she didn’t comment.He opened the door for her, gesturing to the passenger seat. “Your throne, for now.”She slid in, a small but genuine smile pulling at her lips. This time, it was different—no other passengers, no Sue’s mate at the wheel. Just them.As they hit the road, Gillow glanced at her, catching the subtle but pleased look on her face. “You look content,” he remarked, smirking.She tilted her head slightly, feigning innocence. “Do I?”“You do,” he replied, a knowing glint in his eyes. “And I think I know why.”Her lips curved faintly, but she didn’t say anything, letting him take the bait.“You li
