Bound By Bloodlines Chapter 51: TORN HEART
Irwin's eyes clouded with memories of the council’s meeting few weeks back. The way they’d spoken about her in veiled tones as if she was not even anybody. The more she thought about it, the more she realized that accepting the council’s offer wasn’t really a choice at all. Refusing them would have only led to more trouble. And now, here she was, on the brink of a life she never asked for, destined to a man who didn’t even want her. A man who likely hated her for the simple fact that she wasn’t full-blooded.The weight of her thoughts pressed down on her chest as she reached the top of a small hill. From there, she could see the sprawling territory of Shadowclaw laid out before her. Tall trees surrounded the area, and within the clearing, several large buildings stood one of them, no doubt. Her hands tightened around the reins of her horse as she continued forward. ************As she rode closer to the gates, Irwin saw the guards stiffen. Their eyes followed her with suspicion

The soft click of her boots against the stone floor echoed through the wide hall as Irwin walked, her shoulders stiff, her heartbeat pounding in her chest. What if Dorian is back, how is she going to face him. The eyes of those around her still tracked her every move. This time, the whispers were louder, no longer hiding behind closed doors.Her skin prickled as she overheard snippets of conversations from passing slaves servants:"The little hybrid, that thinks she's more than us..."" But Why is she back, I thought she left?""Nobody knows? She's just so annoying"" Oh wow... Dorian is never back " she thought within herself as She swallowed hard, the words cutting sharper than usual. The bond she shared with Dorian, a bond that had yet to solidify, felt more fragile than ever. She pushed forward, ignoring the surge of emotions building inside her, fighting to keep her composure. Dorian wasn’t here, he’d left after their last encounter, leaving her to return to an empty packhouse,

Irwin lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling. Sleep didn’t come easily that night. Her mind was too full, her thoughts was too loud. Though weeks had passed since she and Dorian were mated, the bond between them still felt tenuous, like a fragile thread that neither of them had fully embraced. Dorian had kept his distance, never truly accepting the bond, and that lingering tension left Irwin in a state of constant uncertainty.The room felt cold, despite the warmth of the blankets draped over her. The weight of the unresolved connection with Dorian pressed heavily on her chest. She wondered if the bond between them would ever feel whole, or if she was destined to remain in the shadows of his reluctance forever.The door creaked open, pulling her from her thoughts. Maya re-entered the room, carrying a tray of food. "I thought you might be hungry, My Lady. I brought you something nice" she said with a kind smile, her voice soft but knowing. Irwin sat up, grateful for the distraction. "

Laughter filled Irwin's room as Maya kept her entertained with playful stories. "I swear, Lady Irwin, the little boy is always getting himself into trouble," Maya giggled, her hands moving deftly as she straightened the sheets.Irwin chuckled, appreciating the distraction from her otherwise heavy thoughts. "It sounds like he keeps you on your toes. You'll have to introduce me to him someday, Maya. He is quite interesting to be with."Maya beamed, a light blush creeping into her cheeks. "He would love that, seriously. He’s always asking me what it’s like to work in the castle. He thinks everyone here is like the heroes in his stories."Irwin smiled softly at the idea of a child imagining the castle’s residents as mythical heroes. She had once been that child, dreaming of larger than life figures. But reality had a way of dulling those fantasies. Just as Irwin was about to reply, a loud noise pierced the calm. The laughter died instantly, replaced by a stillness that was heavy in the
Last Updated : 2024-10-02Bound By Bloodlines Chapter 55: THE MESSENGER
The air inside the grand hall was suffocating, the thick furs lining the walls doing little to ease the weight of the growing tension. Dorian’s massive frame rested heavily against the fur-covered throne, but his mind was far from at ease. His sharp eyes, void of warmth, stared blankly ahead as thoughts swirled in his mind each more frustrating than the last. Irwin.The name alone stirred a storm of anger or weakness in his chest. A hybrid her they forcefully bound to her as his mate. It felt like an insult, as though the council were testing his patience, mocking his legacy. She wasn’t strong. She wasn’t what he needed. How could they burden him with someone so weak when he had already rejected so many more worthy candidates? Dorian’s jaw tightened, his teeth grinding against each other as the weight of his thoughts pressed down. The faint sound of footsteps reached his ears, pulling him momentarily from his dark musings. Cain, his most trusted lieutenant, approached cautiously.

The sound of bone meeting flesh echoed through the great hall as Dorian’s boot connected with the messenger’s ribs. The force of the kick sent the man flying across the room, crashing into a wooden table that shattered under the impact. Papers, maps, and goblets spilled to the floor, but Dorian’s focus was fixed on the man crumpled in a heap against the wall.Blood trickled from the corner of the messenger’s mouth as he struggled to breathe, his face contorted in pain. He hadn’t even seen the blow coming, but Dorian wasn’t finished. He stalked toward the broken man, his eyes blazing with unrestrained fury.“Did you really think you could deliver his orders to me?” Dorian growled, his voice low and menacing. “Did my father send you here to mock me?”The messenger whimpered, trying to pull himself to his feet, but his body wouldn’t cooperate. His breaths were shallow and ragged. “M-my Lord,” he gasped. “I-I’m just—"“Silence!” Dorian snapped, kicking the man’s leg out from under him, se

Dorian felt Irwin’s touch like a shockwave, her grip firm yet strangely calming. His breathing was labored, his mind racing. "How did she calm me?" It didn’t make sense. Just moments ago, rage had consumed him, his anger at the hybrid messenger burning inside him. He had been ready to kill without a second thought. But with a single touch, Irwin had stopped him.He took a step back, eyes fixed on her, his body still tense. "What was happening?" Irwin, the weak mate, the one everyone dismissed, the one he never wanted, was now standing in front of him with a quiet authority he had never seen in her before. It wasn’t loud or forceful. She wasn’t commanding with power, but with something far more unsettling an invisible presence that radiated from her.The hybrid messenger, still crumpled on the ground, struggled to crawl out of the room, blood spilling from his lips. His eyes flicked between Irwin and Dorian, filled with fear and confusion. Dorian’s heart raced as he kept his distance,
Last Updated : 2024-10-04Bound By Bloodlines Chapter 58: A MIND OF TURMOIL
Dorian locked himself in his chamber, pacing restlessly, his mind spinning with confusion. The scene with Irwin kept replaying in his head, and each time, it left him more unsettled. His hands trembled—not from fear of the message, not from the looming threats they faced, but from something far more troubling: Irwin.How did she hold me down?The memory of her touch haunted him. She hadn’t used force or any kind of magic he recognized, but with just one gentle touch, she had drained away the fury that had been burning inside him. He had been ready to kill, to unleash his anger on the hybrid messenger without hesitation, but then she had stopped him, and he had no idea how or why.Dorian clenched his fists, trying to shake off the feeling. He was the Alpha, feared and respected by all. No one could calm him when he was in that state—not even himself. But Irwin had. Dorian kept pacing, his heavy footsteps echoing in the silent room. Irwin was changing, that much was obvious. There was

Bound By Bloodlines Chapter 132: I WILL BREAK YOU DORIAN!
The rain tapped lightly against the small, cracked windows of the cabin. Inside, the air was thick with the scent of damp wood and the faint odor of burning incense, meant to mask the staleness of the place. A fire crackled in the hearth, casting flickering shadows against the stone walls.Valen sat in a worn wooden chair, his body slumped and exhausted, his hands hanging loosely by his sides. His appearance was far from the man he once was — strong and unyielding. The battle scars on his face, his dark eyes filled with a thousand stories of pain, now reflected only the weariness of one who had been fighting for too long. His once sharp posture had given way to a slump, a man crushed by the weight of his own thoughts.A small figure approached him. It was Rania, a child no older than ten, with dark eyes that seemed far too mature for her age. Her small hands held a simple wooden cup, filled with water she had just fetched from the nearby well. She had grown up faster than any child sh
Bound By Bloodlines Chapter 131: THE DAWN OF UNITY
“This is the beginning of a new chapter for Shadowclaw,” Dorian says, his voice powerful and commanding. The wolves around him stop in their tracks, their eyes fixed on him. They hang on to every word.“We will no longer live in fear of enemies from outside or from within. We are strong, and together, we will ensure our pack’s legacy.”Dorian’s words linger in the air as if the very earth beneath them acknowledges the gravity of what he says. Irwin, standing beside him, feels a surge of pride. She grips his hand, the power of their bond pulsing through her.Irwin takes a step forward, her gaze steady and filled with conviction. “Together, we will lead this pack into an era of peace and prosperity. The future belongs to us, and it begins now.”The pack howls in agreement, a thunderous chorus that reverberates through the forest. For the first time in years, there’s no fear, no anger—only a unity that fills every wolf with pride.As the echoes of the howls fade into the distance, the at
Bound By Bloodlines Chapter 130: THE HEART OF THE PACK
Irwin stood on the balcony of the pack’s main hall, her eyes scanning the vast expanse of forest. The stillness of the night enveloped her, but inside, her heart was anything but calm. The weight of the responsibility she now carried as Luna, Dorian’s equal, and the heart of the pack, settled heavily on her shoulders.She had spent so many years running, hiding from her nature, afraid of being rejected. But now, after the battles, the heartache, and the triumphs, Irwin had come to accept her role. She was not just Dorian’s mate anymore; she was the leader of Shadowclaw, standing beside him to guide the pack into a future they would shape together.Dorian approached her from behind, his footsteps quiet but sure. As always, his presence was commanding yet comforting, the silent strength of a leader that everyone followed. He placed a hand on her shoulder, his fingers warm against her skin."How are you feeling?" he asked, his voice low, yet filled with concern.Irwin turned to face him,
Bound By Bloodlines Chapter 129: THE RETURN OF PEACE
The winds had calmed, and the ominous clouds that had once hung over Shadowclaw had dissipated. The storms, both literal and metaphorical, had passed. It was an unspoken truth among the pack: the worst was behind them. Dorian stood at the edge of the pack’s territory, his eyes scanning the horizon. The distant mountains loomed under the soft rays of the setting sun. The earth beneath his feet felt solid, the familiar scent of pine and earth grounding him in this moment of calm. But even as the peace settled in, he knew it was only the beginning of a new chapter. The scars of war were deep, both in the land and in their hearts.Beside him, Irwin stood silently. Her presence, once a source of uncertainty and raw power, was now a comforting constant. Her gaze was fixed on the horizon as well, but her thoughts seemed far away, lost in the same weight Dorian carried. It was in moments like these that words were unnecessary between them. They both knew the struggles they had faced, the bat
Bound By Bloodlines Chapter 128: A BATTLE WON BUT NOT FINISHED
The air around Dorian was thick with the scent of blood and smoke, the remnants of the brutal battle that had just taken place. The once-pristine forest floor was now a chaotic mess of broken branches, torn earth, and the shattered remnants of what had once been an unstoppable force. It was the aftermath of a battle that would mark the end of an era for the Shadow Fang pack and the beginning of a new reign for Shadowclaw. Yet, as Dorian stood over the defeated pack, the weight of what had transpired was not lost on him.His massive wolf form towered over the field, every muscle rippling with the aftermath of battle. His fur, normally sleek and dark, was matted with blood and dirt. His breathing was heavy, his chest rising and falling with each intake of air. The fight with Valen had taken everything out of him, but he had emerged victorious. He had shown Valen who was the true Alpha, the one who commanded respect, who wielded power not only through strength but through strategy, leade
Bound By Bloodlines Chapter 127: IRWIN'S POWER UNLEASHED
Irwin stood still, her breath coming in ragged gasps, her body trembling with the aftermath of the intense conflict. Her once-glowing hands now dimmed, the power she had just unleashed still surging beneath her skin, begging for release.She had done it—she had defeated Vendetta, the dark witch who had threatened to tear apart everything Irwin held dear. But the victory came at a price. Irwin could feel the energy inside her—wild and uncontrollable. It was crawling beneath her flesh like a living entity. It was her power, but it was more than she could fully comprehend. It was as if the magic inside her was a force of its own, no longer confined by the rules of the world.Her heart hammered in her chest, the weight of the battle settling over her like a cloak of exhaustion. She had felt the dark magic surge inside her during the fight with Vendetta, pushing her beyond the limits of what she thought possible. And now, she stood at the edge of the forest leaving Dorian her mate behind,
Bound By Bloodlines Chapter 126: THE FALL OF THE SHADOWFANG
The once-proud Shadow Fang pack was now crumbling under the weight of defeat. The clash of paws, the screeches of wolves, and the harsh growls of battle filled the air as warriors on both sides fought fiercely. The forest was alive with the bloodshed, but it was clear: the Shadowclaw pack had the upper hand. The Shadow Fang wolves, those who had once prided themselves on their strength and savagery, now found themselves overwhelmed by the sheer power of Shadowclaw's resolve.Cain fought valiantly, his massive wolf form crashing through the enemy lines, his claws slicing through flesh. His eyes were wild with rage, each strike fueled by the anger and desperation that surged within him. The head guard of Shadowfang snarled as cain lunged toward him, as his fangs sank into the enemy's throat with swift precision, tearing out the life force in a flash. .Elder Lucian, watching the battlefield from a distance, knew they were losing. His senses, honed from years of experience, told him eve
Bound By Bloodlines Chapter 125: THE CLASHES OF FATES
The sky above was darkening with the promise of a storm, the air heavy with tension. The sounds of battle filled the air as claws were clashing, growls reverberating, and the sickening sound of flesh tearing. Irwin stood in the center of the storm, her heart pounding in her chest as she stared across at Vendetta. The witch’s twisted grin was unsettling, a mockery of her confidence. Behind her, the remnants of the Shadow Fang pack rallied, but they were losing, their warriors broken and retreating in fear.Vendetta’s magic swirled around her like a thick, toxic fog. Dark tendrils of power lashed out, aiming to strike at Irwin, to break her down. The witch had once been a powerful adversary, a threat that seemed insurmountable. “Why are you still here, Vendetta?” Irwin’s voice rang out, steady despite the rage that burned within her. “You’ve already lost.”The witch’s eyes gleamed with malice. “Lost?” She laughed, the sound like broken glass. “I’ve won everything, girl. You think you’re
Bound By Bloodlines Chapter 124: THE AWAKENING OF IRWIN
" forget Dorian, he can't penetrate into here Valen. We need to focus on Irwin now" Vendetta said as she took a glimpse of Irwin by the corner of the room.The air was heavy in the darkened chamber, a very palpable tension suffocating the space. Chains forged of shadow and fire glimmered faintly in the dim light, binding Irwin to the stone pedestal at the center of the room. Her once-bright aura was muted, suppressed by the oppressive magic woven into the chains. Her head hung low, golden hair cascading over her face, hiding the determination brewing in her eyes.Valen stood to the side, his golden eyes gleaming with triumph as he watched her struggle. Beside him, Vendetta observed with a twisted smirk, her hands resting on the obsidian staff she wielded.“You know she’s still fighting,” Vendetta remarked, her voice dripping with amusement. “But it’s pointless. The chains are bound to her very soul. She won’t break them.”Valen tilted his head, a shadow of doubt crossing his face. “Sh
