My muscles ached with a dull throb as I slipped into a comfortable set of pajamas, stretching my limbs to shake off the lingering soreness. Even though exhaustion clung to my body, a more pressing need took over—hunger. Not just any hunger, but an all-consuming, gnawing sensation that made my stomach feel like it was running a marathon.

I placed a hand on my stomach as it let out a loud growl. Ever since I awakened my wolf, my appetite had skyrocketed, and now, food was all I could think about.

"Alright, alright, I hear you," I mumbled to myself, making my way toward the door.

The moment I stepped into the hallway, the scent of something mouthwatering wafted through the air. The aroma of grilled meat, warm bread, and rich spices hit me like a tidal wave, making my stomach clench in anticipation. I picked up my pace, hopping down the stairs two at a time. By the time I reached the last three steps, I didn’t even bother with them—I jumped straight down, landing with a soft thud before d

    The spoon hovered inches from my lips when Elijah’s question froze me in place.I looked up at him, wide-eyed, my mind scrambling for a response. Across the table, Cynthia tilted her head, clearly just as interested in my answer.“Uh… not much, really. It was just… like the usual,” I mumbled, quickly lowering my gaze to my plate. I forced a spoonful of soup into my mouth, hoping that would put an end to it.Elijah, of course, wasn’t convinced.“Come on,” he pressed. “There must’ve been something different. I missed being around for your first shift. At least tell me how it felt.”For the first time in my life, I wished Elijah would stop talking to me.I swallowed hard, feeling the weight of Dalton’s gaze. He was watching—amused, entertained, like a king observing a performance at his leisure. I clenched my jaw and forced more food down, trying to think of an answer that would satisfy Elijah without leading to more questions.“Uh… the alphas and betas had a meeting yesterday,” I starte

    The morning arrived earlier than expected, though it wasn’t the soft rays of dawn that roused me—it was something deeper, an instinct humming in my veins, urging me to move. Perhaps it was the newfound presence of Thunder, my wolf, or the weight of the expectations I had set for myself. Either way, the moment my eyes fluttered open, I knew I couldn’t stay in bed any longer.With a quiet sigh, I pushed the covers aside and slipped into the bathroom, the tiles cool against my bare feet. The warmth of the shower was refreshing, easing away any lingering traces of sleep. But just as I reached for the shower gel, a sharp sneeze tore through me."Ugh, I forgot about that," I muttered under my breath, eyeing the bottle warily. Scented products were a risk now—I had learned that lesson quickly. Instead, I grabbed a plain soap bar with the mildest scent I could find.Thunder remained silent, which was unusual. I had expected her to comment, but she seemed content, perhaps resting. The quietnes

    A voice, smooth and annoyingly cheerful, rang through the hallway.“There you are.”I turned to see Cynthia stepping out of the doorway, her sleek dark hair framing her face as she smiled at Dalton and Elijah. She was dressed impeccably, exuding an air of authority. Meanwhile, I probably looked like I had been dragged through a storm—my hair a tangled mess, my clothes slightly rumpled from sleep.Elijah gave Cynthia a friendly wave, but Dalton only spared her a brief glance before turning back to Elijah.“The report you submitted,” Dalton’s tone was measured, serious. “Are you certain the information is accurate?”Elijah nodded, his expression unwavering. “I was there myself, scouting the area. I wouldn’t report something unless I was sure.”Dalton didn’t respond immediately. Instead, his eyes darkened with contemplation.Elijah noticed. “Is something wrong?” he asked, his voice edged with concern.Without answering, Dalton gripped Elijah’s elbow and pulled him aside, lowering his voi

    The days blurred together as I pushed my body past its limits, training like my life depended on it. Strength, endurance, agility—I worked on everything. Every second was spent either running, lifting, or perfecting my combat techniques. If Elijah was with me, fine. If Dalton passed by without so much as a glance in my direction, I ignored it.I repeated their workouts, added new ones, and even watched videos to refine my technique. But today, my body had finally given in. Lying flat on my back, drenched in sweat, I gasped for breath, my chest rising and falling erratically. My lungs burned like fire, my limbs ached, but I refused to complain.Thunder, my wolf, was my only source of comfort. She urged me to keep going, to be strong. Even when the world made me feel like I was fighting alone, she reminded me I wasn’t.“Oh my god, girl, give yourself a break already,” Cynthia’s voice rang out as she strolled onto the field.I didn’t bother lifting my head. “Don’t waste your breath,” I m

    Cynthia’s words gnawed at me, their truth sharp and unwelcome. I didn’t want to admit it, but she had a point. I couldn’t keep running to Dalton for every little thing. He had all but said it himself.A bitter laugh slipped from my lips. Had Cynthia put those thoughts in his head? It was too much of a coincidence that they both had the same opinion.Frustration burned in my chest as I yanked out my phone and dialed Matt. The ringing tone only fueled my impatience.“Hello?” His voice was laced with surprise. “Oliver? What’s up? I’m a little busy—”“El isn’t here, and that’s not why I’m calling,” I cut in, not in the mood for pleasantries. “I heard you’re handling the trials. I want to register.”A brief silence stretched between us before Matt exhaled. “That’s not possible. The participants were preapproved. The list is set. No changes can be made.”“Preapproved by who?” I pressed.“The Alphas and the Lycan King himself.”I clenched my jaw. “Did Dalton specifically say my name should b

    The next few battles passed in a blur, each one fueling our confidence. That first victory had set something ablaze within us, and even when our team split into smaller groups, Team A continued to dominate most of Team B’s opponents.But as the matches wore on, it became obvious that Team B’s opponents were losing—badly. The crowd, once buzzing with energy, began to lose interest. The excited cheers dulled into disapproving murmurs. A few spectators even started booing.Matteo, always quick to notice a shift, took action. He brought his whistle to his lips and blew sharply, cutting through the noise.“Alright, listen up!” His voice carried across the arena. “Instead of facing separate opponents, Team A and Team B will now fight each other. Only the last five standing from each team will advance to the semifinals. After that, we move on to a one-on-one match.”A ripple of excitement spread through the crowd, whispers rising in anticipation. Matteo had just turned the game upside down.

    My lungs burned as I stumbled back toward the bench, each breath ragged, my body aching from the fight. Sweat dripped down my face, mixing with the traces of blood on my skin. Caroline’s excited shriek cut through the noise of the crowd as she jumped up and down, eyes bright with victory.“Damn, girl! You did it!” she hollered, hands in the air like we’d won a championship. Her loud excitement drew a few curious stares, but I could only manage a weak smile in response.Before I could even sit, Matteo was at my side, his brows furrowed with concern. “Are you okay?” His voice held the sharp edge of worry, his gaze scanning me for injuries.I nodded, swallowing the lump in my throat as Caroline and a few others helped me lower myself onto the bench. “Yeah. I’m fine.”Matteo crouched beside me, pulling out a first-aid kit. He set it down next to me and sighed. “Sorry, I couldn’t step in. They weren’t breaking any rules.” His jaw tensed as if he hated admitting it.For a moment, I wanted t

    My chest rose and fell in ragged, desperate breaths, my lungs burning as if they had been set on fire. The final whistle had blown, signaling the end of the battle, yet my body remained tense, frozen in the aftermath.The arena erupted into an uproar—cheers, gasps, and shouts blending into a distant hum. It all felt surreal, like I was trapped in a moment stretched too thin, suspended between exhaustion and disbelief.I had won.Me.The girl who had spent years being ridiculed, trampled on, and treated like a speck of dust beneath the feet of those who considered themselves superior. The girl everyone had mocked and dismissed as weak.I had stood my ground. I had fought.And I had won.A shaky breath escaped my lips, but it wasn’t enough. No amount of air felt enough. My body screamed for rest, for relief, but I forced my legs to remain steady, my hands gripping my knees as I hunched forward.A sudden warmth pressed against my back."Easy," Caroline murmured, her voice both soothing a

    The room fell silent, all eyes shifting between me, Cynthia, and Aleksander. His expression revealed nothing as he considered my judgment."Mercy," he finally remarked, "can be mistaken for weakness.""True mercy requires greater strength than vengeance," I countered calmly. "To heal rather than destroy, to rebuild rather than discard—these are not the actions of the weak."Something flickered across his face—not quite approval, but perhaps reassessment. "The judgment seems... appropriate," he conceded. "Though I would add one condition."I raised an eyebrow, waiting."During her year of service, she will spend one month in my territory, assisting our healers with the spring birthing season. She will see firsthand how packs can differ yet still respect each other's ways."The proposal surprised me—it was both a punishment and an opportunity, a chance for Cynthia to expand her understanding beyond the narrow confines of her prejudice.I glanced at Dalton, who gave a subtle nod, then at

    The formal welcoming ceremony for Aleksander's pack was a masterpiece of carefully orchestrated pageantry. Every detail had been planned to demonstrate our pack's strength while honoring our guests—a delicate balance struck between power and hospitality.I stood at Dalton's side before the great stone archway that marked the entrance to our central compound, dressed in ceremonial garments that blended traditional pack symbols with subtle elements that marked me as Dalton's mate. As promised, I wore no magical protection, though Dalton had insisted on having Eliza work subtle strengthening spells into the embroidery of my jacket—"Not protection," he'd argued when I'd raised an eyebrow, "just enhancement of your natural abilities. Even Aleksander can't object to that."The distant sound of drums announced the Winter's Edge pack's approach. They moved with military precision, Aleksander at their head, his tall figure imposing even at a distance. Behind him marched his highest-ranking pac

    Victor's expression was stone. "Enough, Cynthia.""The matter will be settled according to both our packs' laws," I interjected, unwilling to see her executed despite everything she'd done. "As the wronged party, I'll have a say in her fate."Aleksander's eyebrows rose again. "Mercy from an omega. How... unexpected.""Justice," I corrected. "Not revenge. That's the difference between leadership and tyranny."Something flickered in his cold eyes—not warmth, exactly, but perhaps a reluctant reassessment. "We'll see if you maintain that philosophy after spending more time as an Alpha's mate." He gestured to his pack members. "We return to our camp. The formal meeting will proceed tomorrow as originally planned."As they turned to leave, Cynthia was firmly escorted between two of Aleksander's guards—clearly now his prisoner rather than his informant. She twisted to look back at me, her expression a complex mixture of hatred and fear."This isn't over," she hissed.I met her gaze steadily.

    My stomach dropped at the sight of her. She looked different—her usual polished appearance replaced by something harder, her blonde hair pulled back severely, her posture rigid with purpose. Her eyes found mine immediately, a small, triumphant smile playing at the corners of her mouth.The two groups halted a respectful distance apart, the morning breeze carrying scents between us—the unfamiliar, pine-and-snow smell of the Winter's Edge pack mixing with our own forest-and-earth scent.Protocol dictated that as the junior Alpha's representative, I should speak first, acknowledging Aleksander's status and thanking him for agreeing to this meeting. But before I could open my mouth, Cynthia stepped forward."This is the one I told you about," she said to Aleksander, her voice carrying clearly across the clearing. "The omega who ensorcelled our Alpha."A ripple of tension went through my escort. Victor's hand twitched at his side, his expression unreadable as he watched his daughter.Aleks

    As the room cleared, Dalton maintained his grip on me, silently indicating I should remain. Once we were alone, his carefully controlled expression cracked, revealing the turmoil beneath."You can't seriously be considering this," he said, his voice low and intense."It's our best option," I replied, trying to sound more confident than I felt. "If I face him directly, on my terms—""He could kill you," Dalton cut in harshly. "Do you understand that? This isn't just pack politics, Oliver. Aleksander considers omega males an abomination. In his territory, they don't survive presentation."I swallowed hard. "I know. But that's exactly why this might work. He's expecting me to be weak, to hide. If I show strength—""He might respect it," Dalton acknowledged reluctantly. "Or he might see it as a challenge to his worldview that must be eliminated."I stepped closer, placing my free hand against his chest, feeling the strong, rapid beat of his heart. "Then we make sure elimination isn't an o

    "Aleksander's pack approaches," Dalton began once we were seated, Dalton at the head of the table and me to his right. "And Cynthia has fled, likely to join them with false accusations against my mate.""False according to whom?" Victor challenged, his voice tight with barely controlled rage. "My daughter has served this pack loyally for years. She was raised to be your mate, to stand at your side as Alpha female. Instead, you publicly humiliate her for—" His eyes flicked dismissively toward me, "—this."A low growl rumbled from Dalton's chest, a sound that made the hairs on my neck stand on end. "Choose your next words carefully, Victor."The older wolf didn't back down. "The pack has a right to question your judgment in this matter. Aleksander certainly will.""My judgment is sound," Dalton replied, his voice dangerously even. "And your daughter attempted to kill my claimed mate. She's lucky exile is all she faces."Murmurs spread around the table at this. Exile was one of the harsh

    Chapter"To check my injuries," I explained. "And to warn me about Aleksander."Dalton's expression darkened. "What exactly did she say?""That sometimes love isn't enough. That it takes strategy, too." I moved to the window, looking out at the pack grounds bathed in the day's fading light. Members were already moving with purpose, responding to what must have been Matteo's alerts. "She's right, Dalton. If we face Aleksander head-on about this, we risk everything—the alliance, the pack's safety, your authority.""What are you suggesting?" His voice was cautious.I turned back to him, an idea forming—one I wasn't sure I had the courage to voice. "What if... what if Aleksander doesn't see me as your mate when he arrives?"Dalton's eyes narrowed. "Absolutely not. I won't hide you, Oliver. I won't pretend our bond doesn't exist.""Not forever," I clarified quickly. "Just until the alliance is secured. Until we can find a way to introduce the idea more... gradually.""Deception isn't my wa

    He turned to me, his golden eyes fierce. "Their opinions don't matter. I am the Alpha.""But their cooperation does matter," I pointed out gently. "Especially with the Northern Alliance meeting coming up."Dalton's expression darkened. "Matteo told you.""Cynthia did, actually," I corrected. "Right before she tried to cut my throat with a piece of broken glass."He winced, setting down the plate he'd been holding and moving closer to me. His hands came to rest on my shoulders, thumbs brushing against the fabric of my borrowed shirt."I should have told you," he admitted, his voice dropping. "I just... I didn't want to taint what we have with pack politics. Not yet."I leaned into his touch despite myself. "I need to know what we're facing, Dalton. All of it."He sighed, then nodded toward the dining table. "Let's eat. This conversation requires sustenance."We settled at the table, the domesticity of sharing a meal together still novel enough to send a ripple of warmth through me desp

    I spent the rest of the day in a state of anxious anticipation. After cleaning up the broken glass and attending to my bruises—which were already fading thanks to my werewolf healing—Dalton had reluctantly left to deal with Cynthia and inform the pack council about the incident. He'd been hesitant to leave me alone again, but I insisted. I needed time to process everything that had happened.The Northern Alliance. The treaty negotiations. The fact that our relationship might trigger political consequences I hadn't even considered when I'd surrendered to the bliss of our claiming.I paced the length of Dalton's quarters—our quarters—trying to organize my thoughts. The initial euphoria of being chosen, of finally belonging, had been tempered by the harsh reality of what our union might cost the pack. Cost Dalton.A knock at the door interrupted my spiraling thoughts."Come in," I called, half-expecting it to be Dalton returning.Instead, Eliza—the pack's healer and one of the few who ha
