Diva didn’t look back.

Her legs burned, every step fueled by adrenaline and desperation. The cold wind lashed against her face, but she pushed on. She had no choice.

Breaking the bond might kill me.

Derek’s words echoed in her mind, a warning she should heed. But she wouldn’t.

Because safety was just another word for being trapped.

And she refused to live as a prisoner—not to fate, not to Derek, and definitely not to this bond.

She had to find Ronan.

Even if it meant risking everything.

---

Derek stood in the clearing, fists clenched at his sides.

She was gone.

Again.

His wolf snarled, demanding he go after her, drag her back where she belonged. But he stayed rooted in place.

For the first time in his life, he was afraid.

Afraid of losing her. Afraid of what Ronan would do.

Afraid she would never forgive him.

A sharp voice cut through the silence.

“You let her go?”

Derek turned. Jaxon stood at the edge of the clearing, disbelief darkening his expression.

Derek exhaled. “I didn’t let h

    I stepped toward Ronan.The air between us was electric, crackling with something dark and dangerous. My pulse pounded against my ribs, but I kept my chin high.Behind me, I could feel Derek’s stare. Burning. Unyielding.I didn’t look back.I couldn’t.This was my choice.Freedom.That’s what Ronan promised.So why did it feel like something inside me was unraveling?Ronan’s smirk widened, golden eyes gleaming. “Smart girl.”A low, deadly growl rumbled from behind me.“Diva.”I stopped.Derek rarely said my name like that—like a plea, like a warning, like he was grasping at something fragile.I turned slightly, meeting his gaze.His silver eyes weren’t cold now.They were stormy. Desperate.“I won’t stop you,” Derek said, voice rough. “If this is what you truly want.”A sharp ache bloomed in my chest.I had expected a fight. A struggle.But instead—He was letting me go.Because he knew.He knew if he forced me to stay, I would never forgive him.I swallowed hard. “I have to do this.”

    A fierce, blinding silver light ripped through the darkness.Derek’s roar thundered through the void, shaking the ground beneath me. The shadows shrieked, writhing, but they didn’t vanish. They hovered. Waiting.Ronan didn’t flinch. Instead, he let out a low, amused chuckle.“You never learn, do you, Alpha?” His golden eyes gleamed in the eerie glow. “Always fighting for something that was never truly yours.”Derek’s gaze locked onto me.Not Ronan.Me.I didn’t hear him say my name.But I felt it.Then—Without another word—Derek lunged.The two Alphas collided, the impact rippling through the air.Ronan met Derek’s attack without effort, deflecting his claws with a flick of his wrist. Their movements were too fast, too brutal—I could barely track them.Claws slashed. Fangs snapped. Snarls and growls echoed through the suffocating darkness.But Ronan wasn’t just fighting with his strength.He was using the shadows.Dark tendrils coiled around Derek’s arms, yanking him back.Ronan lau

    Derek’s warning echoed in my ears."Run."But how could I?I was trapped.The room was cold, thick with the scent of iron and something worse—something unnatural. The walls were smooth stone, unyielding. The only way out was the massive iron door between me and him.And Ronan was smiling.“You thought you could fight me?” His voice was calm. Amused. “That was cute.”I clenched my fists, claws biting into my palms. The shadows behind him twisted, restless. The things lurking within them watched me. Waiting for his command.Behind me, Derek groaned, shifting against his chains.I forced myself to stay still. To think.There had to be a way out.I refused to die here.Ronan took a slow step forward, his golden eyes flickering in the dim light.“Do you know what your problem is, Diva?” He tilted his head, studying me like I was some broken thing. “You’re still playing by the rules. You still think there’s a way to win without losing something first.”My jaw tightened. “And what exactly do

    Something was wrong with the air.It was cold. Too heavy.Ronan stood in front of us, his smirk sharp as a blade. But it wasn’t just him anymore.The figures behind him—they wore our faces.One stepped forward.A perfect copy of Derek.The same chiseled jaw, the same piercing gaze. But something was… off.The way it moved—too smooth. Too controlled.Then, it spoke.“You don’t belong here.”Derek’s voice. But hollow.A chill crawled down my spine. This wasn’t real.Derek tensed beside me, a growl rumbling in his chest. “I’m going to tear them apart.”“No.” My voice barely carried. “That’s what he wants.”Ronan was watching us, amusement flickering in his eyes—like he’d already won.“You’re clever, Diva,” he mused. “But not clever enough.”Before I could react, the shadow-Derek lunged.Derek barely had time to brace before it slammed into him, sending them both crashing into the wall.

This was something else—something Ronan had twisted him into.“Derek,” I whispered.He smirked. Not his smirk.Ronan’s.“Diva,” he murmured. “You still think you can save him?”I clenched my fists. I had to.I took a slow step forward. “Derek, fight it. I know you’re still in there.”His smirk didn’t waver. “He’s gone, Diva.”“No.” My voice wavered, but I refused to believe him. “You’re lying.”I reached for him—And he struck.His claws sliced through the air, barely missing my face as I leapt back.The wind howled around us.My mate—the man I loved—was trying to kill me.But I refused to accept it.Derek lunged, moving faster than I’d ever seen.I barely reacted in time before he slammed me into a tree, the impact knocking the air from my lungs.His claws pressed against my throat.He leaned in, voice barely a

Something you’ve always lacked.”Derek’s fists clenched. “You allied with an outsider?”Alec shrugged. “Call it an alliance. Call it a takeover. The Blackfang Pack needs a leader. A strong one. And Magnus has proven himself worthy.”I stepped forward, my pulse hammering. “You mean you sold your own pack for power.”Alec turned his gaze on me, smirking. “Diva Crest.

  • Bound To The Fearful Alpha    The Shattered Dawn

    Diva's heart thudded in her ears as she sprinted through the broken gate of the devastated courtyard. Dawn light fought through the dark clouds to cast a deserted battlefield strewn in chaos. Wolves—her loyal pack—poured rapidly around her, their eyes blazing with determination, but in their trail, a wire of tension crackled like lightning. Every step echoed with the urgency of a last stand. Abruptly, without precursor, a low, rasping bellow shredded the air. From ruin and wreckage, the foe appeared—faces twisted by shadow and terror. In this instant, Diva seized her sword in white-knuckled resolve. She rushed forward like a flood, fluid and untamed in action. Her cry, tempered from sheer will, rang out, "For the light and for our future!" The voice itself was a vow that the very darkness looming could not consume. Derek, bloody and marred but with the flame of a true Alpha still burning fierce inside him, stood beside her. His battle-worn eyes blazed like a guardian's whenever they c

    The eyes of Diva flew wide as war disappeared into heavy silence. She shuddered in released energy everywhere she looked out over Chapter 83's field of war. The walls of the fortress reverberated with the din of old wars, and broken stone at every splintered pillar reverberated with the history of pain and suffering. But here in the heavy stillness, another noise erupted—a thudding, pounding boom out of the depths of darkness. Her own heart boomed like a mad drum as she moved ahead, her bare feet squelching through rain-sodden passage. Memory of betrayal surrounded her, of hope betrayed that still smoldered beneath. For every step there was the wordless cry of rage and fierce hope that had driven her this far.His resolute and confident eyes now sparkled with uncertainty. She could feel the unspoken anguish from his eyes—a mix of frustration and helplessness—as if their mutual burden of fate had finally begun to break him from the pretence. Each spasm of the enemy lurking in the darkne

    Diva closed her eyes and breathed. The process was agonizing—a flood of memories, loss, grief, images, and love threatened to overwhelm her. She wept, the anguish running through her like an arrow. With each tear she wept, something else retreated into hiding. Finally, her heart and spirit opened to show a seething, raw energy that ran through her, full to brimming from the depths within. As she opened her eyes, they glowed with focus and determination. "I am ready to fight for our future," she murmured. As if on cue, the war horns of the enemy rang in the distance. The pack was getting ready to make one final push. Time was short. Diva stepped into the room, moving with slow determination. Derek stood waiting, his gaze sweeping hers with a silent vow and a fear. For a moment, as the initial light of morning sliced through darkness, their union stood whole and unbroken amidst all the earlier trials. "Both of us," Derek whispered, voice soft and obstinate. "Together," she repeated once

    Diva's heels pounded the wet road as she rushed down the winding corridors of the citadel. The bewildering events of last night still echoed with every inhalation. She was driven by bitter betrayal and fear of an uncertain tomorrow. Chapter 81's cryptic warning haunted her—the ominous warning that success earned with blood and toil was vulnerable and shadows clung only at an arm's distance. Behind her, the ferocity of battle receded into the distant, persistent hum—a reminder that there were still threats out there, waiting just beyond reach. Her heart racing in her chest, she gripped her sword tightly, every step the result of raw desperation. The pack had regrouped after the last attack, but suspicion and wariness seethed beneath their hides. Every wolf's eye showed the tension, the underlying fear of the unseen threat. Diva's mind remembered Derek's wretched, desperate face as he had promised to live. His heart-rending voice which had once given them a future now was besmirched

    She looked at Derek. His own eyes, still burning with determination even though he was hurt, reflected her own horror and shock. They both felt that moment of wordless comprehension that every second now counted.The stranger went on, "Three days from now, judgment will be upon you. Until then, you need to prepare and gather your spread light. Only thus can you try to overcome the darkness that will cover you.".Diva's brain went haywire. Three days. The countdown has begun. Each second was a precious, clockwork moment that could rescue her or nothing. Her heart thumped with adrenaline and utter terror. "And what is your price?" she snarled, voice steady over the tempest raging within her.The stranger's eyes clenched and he gave no swift reply. He extended his hand—a gesture in silence full of potential and threat. The air was charged with tension.Diva hesitated, hand hanging between the palmar calluses of destiny and trembling skin. She knew that to take it would reverse everything

    The beat of Diva's heart was a war drum pounding as she led the pack into the ruined courtyard of the stronghold. The sunrise on the horizon-painted with red and gold—a bitter reminder that even a morning plucked from the darkness had horrors yet Chapterunimagined. Every step a battle cry, every breath a challenge of the shadows that would consume them.Diva's gaze scanned the horizon, where morning's earliest light and smoke from burning fires were combined. The enemy was advancing again. From that chaos, the Void awoke from slumber—its strength always on standby, devouring at her whim. She gripped her sword firmly, with brute strength flowing through her, a skill she'd had pounded into her veins and given.By her side, Derek strode with desperate circumspection, his gold eyes blazed hot though welts on his battered frame testified to a struggle of another sort. His hand is still fast around hers, a promise that they should never be parted, no matter what. They had fought for this fl

    Diva paused in the doorway of an enormous room. The ground was strewn with shards of broken mirror, each with partial reflections of the past—a past of love, loss, and endless struggle. In the center of the room, balanced atop a pedestal, sat a glowing fragment of mirror. Its beam was peaceful, nearing in upon her.Varin invited them in. "That is the Fragment of Light," he said to them. "It holds in it the promise of rebirth, but at a price. To claim it, you have to let go of that which binds you to your sorrow."Diva's stomach pulled in. Every memory, every sob, every whispered promise was hers. To let it go…was like erasing her very being.She looked at Derek. His eyes silently pleaded with her—a mix of love and sadness that nearly shattered her determination.She closed her eyes for a moment, drawing a jagged breath. When she opened them again, they burned with a fierce resolve. "I choose our future," she whispered. "Not the pain of the past."A brilliant light poured out of the sh

    Diva's heart thrummed as she sprinted down the stronghold stone corridor. Every step echoed like a rebellious drumbeat. Wind sliced across her cheek, mixed with the foam and purpose. Before her lay the dark threat beating like a living shadow; behind her lay the pack's warriors in a wall of growls and biding talons.Derek charged at her side, his golden eyes afire with a fierce determination that belied his battered body. His eyes, usually steady and reassuring, now blazed with urgency. During the fleeting interludes between battles, their eyes spoke all that needed saying—a silent vow to hold on, to fight on, no matter the cost.The enemy was no longer dark threat. Mutters had evolved to bellowing. The Void—the hoary, amorphous monster described in halcyon recollection of old myth—came into being. Its presence squeezed against the ramparts of the fortress like a hug of vengeful haze, distorting reality in fiendish, chaotic ways.A slam from the outside wall jarred the fortress brutal

    Diva's heart pounded against her ribcage as she sprinted down the fortress corridor, blinded by the black-outs. Every step a frantic trot through the silence of the aftermath. The devastation of the previous day's battle—scorched dirt and acrid shreds of broken vows—remained etched on the walls. Every burst of torchlight made her jump, every figure vanishing into the shadows reminded her of decisions now weighing on her conscience.She gripped her side where the bruise pulsed with pain, but not pain that hindered her—it was betrayal, the cold sting of doubt in her veins. Her mind whirled back to Caelan's words moments before, a poisonous truth that questioned her who she was. Even as the pack bayed her name in triumph, she felt a void gnawing in her chest, as if something was ripped away from her.Derek's dark form emerged from the corridor down the hall. His gait was uneven; each step a tell-tale for a man fighting the battle against fatigue and hidden grief. When his gaze met hers,
