Katrina’s POV

“Umm that would be a lie,” Amanda said and broke out in a hysterical laugh which to me showed her nervousness. “Who would feed you such information?”

“Are you indirectly calling me a liar?” The man who spoke earlier questioned. His tone icy as his statement held animosity. “I’m the Lycan King and I have people at every corner ready to give me whatever information I seek.”

“When they don't?” He implored, making sure there was silence for some moments. “I tend to investigate matters myself. This is to say everything I speak of has been thoroughly checked and confirmed before I take action”

“Pssss,” an object poked my back and I stared behind me to see the maid with a tray following me. “Why haven't you gone in?”

“Ummm, I-”

“Move,” she jabbed me with the tray. “You are not the only one who hates to be scolded and I’m in no mood for your shenanigans.”

Having no choice I used my right elbow while tightly holding the tray of food and bent the door handle. I heard a click and p

    Katrina’s POV“Then tell us,” Shaun declared after sharing a quick glance with his Elders and Amanda. “Is there someone you admire?”“I wouldn't use the word admire,” he corrected as I was almost at the door. “But yes, I have my eyes out on someone.”“Who might that be?” Luca one of the elders implored.“Her,” Davos announced as my hand reached the handle. For the third time since I came to serve, the room grew quiet and I felt eyes digging into my back. Feeling compelled to turn around, I did just as Amanda screamed, “Her?!”“What?” I blurted the question before I could think, the empty tray in my hand shaking.“Yes,” Davos affirmed as I fully faced him from a distance, his posture relaxed in a short sleeved brown and black designer shirt and black slacks. His chin held high, a small smile playing on his lips. “Why?” Shaun interrogated.“I have my reasons,” he replied, golden eyes I never knew existed raking my form, his gaze still intense and it came off as if he could see beneath

    Katrina’s POVI halted and turned to my left, my eyes narrowing in confusion as I asked. “Why?”“I can see you forgot the motto in this pack,” the guard murmured in reply.“Which is?” I questioned, getting more confused. “I didn't know there was a motto we abide by.”“I guess no one told you then,” the guard scoffed as he appeared at me. “You are no newcomer and should have known it.”“Well I don't so fill me in,” I exhaled in a breath. “The Alpha and Amanda don't like to be kept waiting.”“Which should I do so?” He queried, finger tapping the back of his hand as he held both palms in front of him.“What?” I asked, getting more confused by the second.“You asked me to go ahead and fill you in,” the guard reminded. “I’m trying to ask which question should I do that to.”“Both,” I declared.“The motto I was referring to, goes like this,” the guard started. “Do as they say, asks the questions later or face their wrath regardless.”My eyes widened in surprise at his statement while it san

There was no specific method however I was called into her office at a specific time of the day to receive whatever she had in store for me.The first day was me being held by some maids while she laid me down on the desk in her room and flogged my back with a whip that of course left marks and bruises on my back. Tears poured out of my eyes till there was no wetness left in them.After that I wasn't treated with even an ounce of care or given time to grieve or get adjusted to the pain I was inflicted, instead I was commanded

    Katrina’s POV“I’m sad and happy you are leaving us,” Vanessa said as she escorted me to the black rangerover packed in front of the house, Amanda and Shaun standing a distance away, watching us.“Same way I’m having mixed feelings,” I confessed in a sigh and reached for my satchel which she insisted to help me carry.I had filled her in briefly on what was going on while I put whatever valuables I had in the sizable leather bag. It was difficult for her to understand, nevertheless she felt anger and remorse at my situation.She ended up apologizing after our little talk and I told her the truth about not bearing grudges at her actions however I made it clear that we could never be close again even if our paths managed to cross in the future.It was a far fetched thought to think about crossing parts, but there was only a small bit we could predict about life. Unexpected things could happen at unexpected times.My life was a living testament to that and though it was normal for me to

    Katrina’s POVAfter we drove for two more minutes, I caught sight of large walls in the distance. My curiosity sparked and I couldn't stop myself from asking. “What’s that?”“The walls surrounding the Lycan kingdom,” Mathew answered after I asked and I turned to see him focused on the ipad in his hold, not bothering to lift his head to reply.“They are huge,” I declared, my actions and words showing my lack of exposure and knowledge of certain things.“Yes,” Thomas murmured in a small laugh. “They are.”Soon we reached tall iron gates that opened up as our car approached and a man in black cap and a casual attire stood there. He granted the vehicle a salute regardless of the tinted glass aa we rode past the barrier.The image that surrounded me appeared surreal as we entered the kingdom. Tall buildings and architectural structures were scattered everywhere I looked.Minutes later the car came to a stop and I heard the sound of clicks indicating the car had been unlocked. I gazed at my

    Katrina’s POV“Beside the king’s what?” I asked, my voice breaking as I ran behind her while she tugged me in whatever direction she thought was correct.I could only catch a flashing glimpse of spiral staircase with golden handle as we climbed to the floors above and beautiful lights as I moved at that speed. Soon we came to a halt and she beamed at me, we were standing in front of an intricately carved door with shiny mahogany wood which from one glance you could tell was very expensive.Thomas and Mathew were no where to be seen and I couldn't blame them. I was shocked by her rapid movement in dragging me, her excitement a bit contagious and hard for me to resist as she felt like a burst of sunshine to my previously dark world.I could faintly hear them from downstairs but Ariana wasn't paying attention. She was too focused and elated by the matter at hand. Mathew probably knowing his sister and deciding to leave her be as he didn't bother to join us upstairs and accompany us.“Op

Different scents filled the bathroom as I rinsed my skin from the soap which I used to scrub my body clean.At some point I discovered I had been crying which didn't surprise me thus I was so overwhelmed with joy and relief as I did so. I knew it was too early to be happy, nonetheless my body and mind couldn't help succumb to the peace and calmness of the new environment I had found myself in.The past hour felt like heaven and I could say the difference was clear from where I was coming from.

    Katrina’s POVThe wind howled through the valley, carrying the scent of blood and smoke, even after all this time. The battle was over, but the land still bore the scars of war—charred earth, shattered weapons, and graves upon graves stretching farther than my eyes could see. I stood at the edge of the ridge, my cloak billowing behind me. The sun was setting, casting an eerie golden glow over the ruins below. It should have been beautiful. Instead, it felt haunting, as though the land itself mourned what had transpired here. Jax stood beside me, his large frame unusually still. He wasn’t the same man who had charged into battle with reckless confidence. None of us were the same anymore. Mira knelt beside a small grave, placing a single white flower upon the fresh mound of dirt. “She was only eighteen,” she murmured, her voice tight with grief. “She was supposed to see the world, not…” Her voice trailed off as her fingers traced the name etched into the stone. Shaun was further

    Katrina’s POVAside from the distant moans of the injured and the crackle of dying fires, the battlefield was eerily quiet. Staring at the Crimson Alpha's lifeless body, his once-imposing figure reduced to a heap of broken bones and lost force, made my heart race. The victorious moment, however, felt unjust. hollow. I felt a shudder go through me as a slow, purposeful clap reverberated over the field. When I turned, I saw Lucy Hawthorne standing there. Her icy-blue eyes gleamed with laughter, and her scarlet cloak hardly stirred in the wind. As she stepped forward, her boots stomping on the blood-soaked grass, she exclaimed, "Well done." "You really did a favor for me." Mira tensed up next to me, her hand clenching over her knife. With a low growl, Jax's muscles tensed, poised to attack. Shaun's amber eyes blazed with anger as he took a defensive step forward. Davos, however, was the one who spoke at last. His voice was like steel as he said, "You were never here for him." “You

My body was screaming for me to stay down and breathe, but I was unable to do so.With Mira out there, no.She was in charge of a mission that had the power to alter everything, somewhere beyond the mayhem.Shaun squatted next to me, his expression tight. "You ought not to be moving."I cleaned my mouth of blood. "I have no other option."His eyes grew gloomy. "Mira will take care of it."I forced myself to stand up despite the pain in my limbs and let out a sharp exhale. "She must."Because we would all fail if she did.The night was thick with tension and pressed against my skin.Somewhere out there, Mira and her crew were sneaking through the enemy's fortifications, moving like ghosts in the dark. Destroying their supply chains wasn’t just a mission—it was our only chance. If they fa

    Katrina's POV With the exception of the distant crackling of flames devouring the remains of the dead, the battlefield was strangely quiet. The ground was slippery with the remains of soldiers who had sacrificed their lives for this conflict, and the air was heavy with the smell of blood and burned flesh. I walked over corpses, some I recognized, others I didn't, and my heart ached. The never-ending cycle of violence had taken another person, and each one was a loss. And yet there he was, in the middle of the slaughter. The Alpha Crimson. Despite the devastation all around him, he remained tall and intimidating. His posture eased as if he were just a spectator to the mayhem he had created, and his crimson eyes burned like coals. My body cried out for me to fight, to put a stop to this once and for all, and my grasp tightened around my blade. However, he held up a hand. "We need to talk, Katrina." My whole body hummed with stress as I tightened my jaw. "I have nothing to say to

    Katrina’s POVUnease was in the air at the war camp. The tension was oppressive and unavoidable; it adhered to my skin like a dense mist. There was a problem. The absence of food supply had been the first clue. When additional warriors joined our army, we first believed that the rations were being stretched thin, which was a simple error. Weapons, however, disappeared. Our strategy tent's plans outlining our next course of action vanished. Worst of all, fighters were vanishing into thin air. I looked around the camp as I stood outside my tent. Long, unsettling shadows were thrown over the restless warriors by fires that flared in the darkness. They experienced the paranoia and the feeling that something was falling apart inside of them as well. Shaun came over, his face serious. "Last night, another fighter disappeared. a top scout for us. No indication of a fight. It seems as if he just left. Mira folded her arms. "Someone is helping the enemy." I let out a deep breath, my thoug

    Katrina's POVEven the most courageous soldiers were hesitant to enter the safehouse since it was tucked away in the deepest area of the forest. It was an area unaffected by conflict or the mayhem engulfing the world beyond the woods. My youngster was protected here.That's what I kept telling myself, anyhow.As the last of the sunshine slipped behind the tall trees, I watched from the doorway of the little wooden home. The soft sound of my son's laughing reverberated within, a tune so innocent that it didn't fit with the burden on my chest.I balled my fists up. The Crimson Alpha's soldiers were gaining momentum as the conflict reached its climax. My troops continued to fight without me for every second I was here. They lost another second life. But leaving was a total gamble. Leaving him was necessary.I turned and stepped inside, feeling a chill. With the flickering fire creating gentle shadows on the walls, the cabin's warmth enveloped me. Mira gave my kid some wooden sculptures t

Every time my heart beat, it served as a harsh reminder of how much depended on us. We had arrived to the deserted Lycan ruins, a location lost to time, thanks to the mystery. I felt the old carvings under my fingertips as I moved them over the stone walls. Relics from the past. Back when werewolves and lycans weren't adversaries. When they were one, that is. Shaun was standing next to me, looking over the ruins with amber eyes. "This place gives me a bad feeling." Mira let out a loud sigh. "Whether you like it or not, this is where the puzzle took us. Here is the solution. I looked to a big archway at the far end of the room and nodded. Beyond it, the blackness went on forever.

    Katrina's POVThe air shifted around me, thick like a heavy mist, pulling me under. My body no longer felt like my own. The world faded, the ground dissolving beneath me until I was floating in an endless void. I wasn’t sure how I got here—one moment, I had been gripping the scroll the temple guardian had given me, reading its cryptic words, and the next, everything had gone dark. I took a slow breath, steadying my nerves. This was part of the trial. I had known there would be one. The moment I touched the scroll, I felt something pull at me, dragging me into a place beyond the physical world. But I hadn’t expected it to feel so... real. A soft whisper echoed through the void, a voice both foreign and familiar. "You're not prepared." I spun, searching for the source, but there was only darkness. Then, out of nowhere, a figure stepped forward. My breath caught. It was me. Or rather, it was a version of me—one twisted, darker. Her eyes blazed an unnatural red, her lips twisted
