Cursed Alpha, Chosen Love A New Threat in the Shadows
“Kaelan, you need to come outside,” Rhea’s voice was sharp, almost trembling, as she stood in the doorway of the cottage. Her hands clutched the edge of the wooden frame, her knuckles turning white. Kaelan glanced up from where he was sharpening a blade at the kitchen table. The sound of the whetstone scraping against steel halted mid-motion. He noticed the tension in her posture, the way her shoulders tensed like a drawn bow. Something wasn’t right.“What is it?” he asked, his voice low, cautious. Her lips parted, but no words came out immediately. Instead, her eyes darted to the forest behind her, the thick shadows of the trees almost swallowing the edges of the clearing. Finally, she managed, “I don’t know who they are… but they’re asking for you.”Kaelan rose in one fluid motion, his instincts kicking in before his thoughts had time to catch up. He slid the blade into the leather strap at his waist and strode towards her. “What do you mean, ‘they’? How many?”“Two,” Rhea said, s

"Do you really think they’ll follow you after everything you’ve done?" Rhea’s voice was sharp, cutting through the stillness of the moonlit clearing. She stood rigid, her arms crossed tightly over her chest, her eyes locked onto Kaelan’s. The tension between them was palpable, thick as the fog that rolled in from the dense forest around them.Kaelan turned his gaze away from her, his jaw tightening. The silver light of the full moon bathed his face, highlighting the deep lines of worry etched into his features. He said nothing, his silence speaking volumes."Kaelan," Rhea continued, her voice softening but still firm. "You can’t just stand there and hope things will fix themselves. The pack—they don’t trust you. They don’t even like you. Hell, I’m still not sure I understand why I’m standing here with you."His head snapped back toward her at that, his piercing blue eyes meeting hers with an intensity that made her take a small step back. "You’re here," he said, his voice low and raw,

The scent of damp earth and pine filled the air as Kaelan and Rhea moved deeper into the forest, their boots crunching over fallen leaves. The moon, partially veiled by thick clouds, cast eerie silver streaks between the branches. The deeper they went, the more unnatural the place felt, as if the shadows themselves were alive, watching their every move.“I don’t trust this,” Rhea murmured, her fingers brushing the hilt of her dagger, a reflex born from countless encounters with danger. The markings on her skin, once dormant and merely decorative, now pulsed with faint silver light, a sign of the magic that ran through her veins—a magic that was both a blessing and a curse.Kaelan exhaled sharply, his breath misting in the cool night air. “Neither do I. Something’s watching us,” he replied, his voice low and tense. He could feel the prickling sensation at the back of his neck, a warning from his instincts that something was amiss. His wolf stirred beneath his skin, itching to break fre
Last Updated : 2025-03-11Cursed Alpha, Chosen Love The Seer’s Test
"You are not worthy."The seer’s voice was barely more than a whisper, but the words hit Kaelan’s chest like a blade, piercing through the layers of his resolve.His hands curled into fists, knuckles white against the dim candlelight. “What?” he demanded, his voice rising in defiance.Before them stood the old man, cloaked in deep blue robes that seemed to absorb the flickering light around him. His face was shrouded in shadow, but the aura of his presence was unsettling, an unnatural stillness surrounding him that felt more like a spirit than flesh."You seek my help," the seer continued, his tone unwavering, "yet you carry the weight of your sins like a noose around your neck. Do you truly believe you are strong enough to face what lies ahead?"Kaelan’s jaw tightened, the words striking a nerve he had tried so hard to bury. He had expected resistance, but not this. "I’m not the man I used to be," he replied, his voice low, almost pleading."Then prove it," the seer challenged, his e

"You knew and didn’t tell me?" Kaelan’s voice was sharp, edged with betrayal, cutting through the heavy silence of the chamber like a dagger.The seer’s eyes, clouded with age yet piercing with wisdom, held steady against his ire. "It was not my place to tell you before you were ready." Her tone was calm, but there was an undercurrent of something deeper—perhaps remorse, perhaps resolve.Kaelan clenched his fists, the knuckles turning white as he fought to contain the tempest brewing within him. He had come here seeking answers, a glimmer of understanding to illuminate the darkness that surrounded him, but every word from the old woman only deepened the storm inside him. "Ready? You let me walk blind into this!" His growl reverberated through the dimly lit chamber, the words fueled by frustration and a sense of betrayal that gnawed at his insides.Rhea flinched beside him, her fingers curling into her palms as if she were bracing herself for the fallout. "Kaelan, we need to listen."

"This is just another trick, isn’t it, Kaelan?" Eryn’s voice was sharp, cutting through the tense air inside the gathering hall. The flickering torches on the stone walls cast restless shadows across the faces of the pack members, illuminating their uncertainty and fear.Kaelan stood in the center, jaw clenched, his hands tightening into fists at his sides. He had expected resistance, but the bitterness in Eryn’s tone burned like silver against his skin, igniting a fire of frustration deep within him. He had fought tooth and nail to return to the pack, to earn back their trust, and yet here he stood, facing the walls of doubt that had been erected during his absence."You think I would lie about something like this?" he shot back, his voice edged with frustration, fighting the urge to roar in defiance. "Why not?" Eryn stepped forward, arms crossed defensively across her chest. "It wouldn’t be the first time you manipulated us to maintain control." Her words dripped with accusation, a

"They’re here."Kaelan barely had time to react before the first howl split the night. It wasn’t the kind of howl that called to the moon—it was a war cry. His muscles tensed as he sprang from his chair, knocking it over in the process. The sound echoed through the village, a prelude to the chaos that would soon unfold.Outside, the village was already in turmoil. Flames licked at the edges of wooden roofs, casting eerie shadows across the dirt roads. The scent of smoke, sweat, and blood filled his lungs as he sprinted toward the center, heart pounding like a war drum. His mind raced with thoughts of the villagers, the families, the children. This was not just a raid; it felt like an invasion, a declaration of war.Wolves—twisted, unnatural things—snarled as they tore through homes and defenses alike. Their fur was matted, their eyes glowed with a sickly yellow light, and their movements were too fast, too erratic. Kaelan's instincts kicked in, sharpening his senses as he shifted mid-

"This is a mistake," Eryn snapped, arms crossed tightly over her chest. Her usually sharp, calculating eyes flicked between Kaelan and Rhea with a barely concealed scowl. "We’re barely holding together as it is, and now you want to bring outsiders into our territory?"Kaelan exhaled slowly, his patience thinning. The tension in the room was suffocating, thick with resentment and unspoken grudges. The remnants of the attack still lingered—scorched earth, the metallic scent of blood, and the ghosts of those they’d lost. Their pack had fought together, but the unity had been fragile, forced by desperation rather than true loyalty."We don’t have a choice," Rhea cut in, her voice firm but controlled. She stood beside Kaelan, her fingers curled into fists at her sides. She wasn’t afraid to stand her ground, not even against werewolves who looked ready to tear each other apart at the slightest provocation. "If we want to survive the Elder Wolf, we need allies. Other packs have fought him be

A hush fell over the pack. Rhea’s fingers curled into a fist at her side, but she said nothing. She knew this was Kaelan’s battle to fight—not with claws, not with strength, but with the truth.Kaelan exhaled slowly, his voice even but firm. “Because I’m not the same Alpha I was.”Garrick scoffed, arms crossed over his chest. “Words mean nothing. Zane is gone, but what stops you from turning into him?”The weight of the question pressed against Kaelan’s ribs. It was a fair challenge, one he would have once met with violence. But not now.He took a step forward, his gaze unwavering. “You do.”Murmurs rippled through the pack. Garrick’s brow furrowed.Kaelan continued, his voice carrying strength without intimidation. “All of you. This pack is not mine to control. It is ours to build.” He glanced at Rhea, then back at the faces before him. “I have made mistakes. More than I can count. But I will not repeat them.”Garrick studied him, the firelight reflecting in his eyes. Then, after a l
Cursed Alpha, Chosen Love The Price of Victory
"You have to let me do this, Kaelan."Rhea’s voice cut through the howling winds, her hands trembling as she traced glowing sigils in the air. The ancient power coursing through her veins crackled like a storm contained within flesh, her body a conduit for something far greater than she was ever meant to bear. Her skin had paled, veins darkening with the creeping corruption of the Elder Wolf’s essence.Kaelan’s grip on his bloodstained sword tightened. "No. There has to be another way." His breath came in sharp, ragged bursts, his muscles burning from the relentless battle. Around them, the remnants of the cult still writhed in the aftermath of the ritual, their forms twisting in agony as the fragment of the Elder Wolf flickered, struggling to maintain its hold on the physical plane."There isn’t," Rhea gasped, barely holding herself upright. "If we don't finish this now, it will return stronger. You know that."Kaelan's jaw clenched. He knew she was right. The fragment had already pu
Cursed Alpha, Chosen Love The Battle Begins
The clash of claws and steel roared across the valley like an unstoppable storm. Kaelan ducked under a sweeping blade, his instincts razor-sharp as he drove his claws into a cultist’s chest. The man let out a strangled gasp before crumpling, lifeless. A grim satisfaction surged through Kaelan, but there was no time for celebration. The battle was just beginning, and the stakes had never been higher.“Push forward!” Kaelan bellowed, his voice cutting through the chaos that enveloped them. This was not just a fight for survival; it was a fight for the very soul of their land. The air was thick with the acrid scent of blood and sweat, mingling with the pungent aroma of burnt offerings that the cultists had laid in their dark rituals. The remnants of Alaric’s forces, battered but determined, surged ahead alongside Kaelan’s pack and their allies, a motley crew of warriors united by a common cause.The sacred site had been desecrated, its once-pristine ground now drenched in blood, illumina
Cursed Alpha, Chosen Love The Light in the Dark
"This is insane, Rhea!"Kaelan's voice was rough with frustration, his fists clenched at his sides. His normally guarded expression was stripped bare—raw concern etched into the tense line of his jaw.Across the dimly lit chamber, Rhea stood her ground. Her hands trembled, but she didn't step back. Not this time. Not when she had finally found a way to end this nightmare."It's the only way," she said evenly.Kaelan exhaled sharply. "No. We find another way.""There is no other way!" Rhea snapped, her patience thinning. "I've read the texts over and over. If we don't sever the connection before the ritual, the Elder Wolf will fully awaken. We can't let that happen."Kaelan paced like a caged animal, his shoulders taut with restrained energy. He raked a hand through his dark hair before fixing her with a hard stare."And your solution is to sacrifice yourself? That's what you're saying, isn't it?" His voice was quieter now, but no less intense.Rhea’s throat tightened. She had expected
Cursed Alpha, Chosen Love Gathering Strength
"We are running out of time."Kaelan’s voice cut through the tense air, and the gathered werewolves straightened. The fire in the center of the meeting ground flickered, casting shifting shadows over the hardened warriors, healers, and scouts who had come to listen.“We barely survived last night,” he continued, stepping forward. His piercing gaze locked onto each pack member. “And the Elder Wolf is still out there. You all saw what it did. You felt it.”A low murmur swept through the crowd. The wounds from their last encounter were still fresh. Some bore visible scars—claw marks across chests, bandaged arms, bruised faces—but the worst wounds were unseen. The fear. The doubt. The knowledge that they had faced something beyond any Alpha’s strength.Kaelan inhaled sharply. “I won’t lie to you. We are facing a power that even our ancestors feared. But we will not let that fear break us.” His voice was steady, commanding. “This is our land. Our home. And we will fight to the last breath
Cursed Alpha, Chosen Love The Awakening
"This isn't just a ritual site. This is a warning."Kaelan’s voice was edged with restrained fury as he surveyed the grotesque display before them. The clearing was littered with symbols scorched into the earth—runes older than any known werewolf script. The stench of blood and decay clung to the air, thick and suffocating. At the center of it all, a massive carcass of a stag lay in a grotesque offering, its ribcage splayed open, organs meticulously removed."They've been busy," Torin muttered, stepping beside Kaelan. "This isn’t just some rogue cult playing with forbidden magic. They knew exactly what they were doing."Alaric’s remnants, now part of the fractured pack, stood in uneasy formation. Some of them muttered under their breath, unease rippling through their ranks like a cold wind. The alliance was already fragile—this only worsened the tension.Rhea tightened her grip on her dagger. She had seen death before, but something about this ritual site set her on edge. The symbols…
Cursed Alpha, Chosen Love Fractures Within
"Kaelan." Torin’s tone was measured, but there was no mistaking the wariness in it. His fingers twitched at his sides, a wolf barely restraining its instincts. For a moment, neither leader moved. Then, Torin’s gaze shifted to Rhea, who stood just behind Kaelan’s right shoulder."You’re the one who called for this meeting," Torin noted, his expression unreadable."I am," Rhea confirmed, stepping forward. "Because I believe this fight is bigger than whatever grudges remain between us."Torin let out a low, humorless chuckle. "Grudges? That’s putting it lightly."Kaelan bristled. "If you're just here to revisit the past, save your breath."Torin's expression hardened, but he didn’t rise to the bait. Instead, he glanced back at his own people. One of them—a younger woman with dark braids and wary eyes—gave a barely perceptible nod.Torin exhaled. "We’ve seen the movements near the old border. We know the kind of threat you’re talking about. And we know we’re not strong enough to take t

The patrol burst through the main gates, breathless and bloodied."Alpha!" Jareth called, urgency laced in his voice. "You need to see this."Kaelan was already moving before Jareth had finished speaking. The sight of his warriors returning in such a state sent ice through his veins. He met them at the center of the village, where torchlight flickered against their mud-streaked faces."What happened?" he demanded.Jareth swallowed hard. "We found something… unsettling. Near the eastern border."Rhea appeared beside Kaelan, her presence a quiet strength. "What do you mean, unsettling?"Jareth hesitated. His fingers twitched at his side, and Kaelan didn't miss the faint tremor in them."Show me," Kaelan ordered.The eastern border was shrouded in thick mist, the towering trees casting twisted shadows under the moonlight. The scent of damp earth mixed with something sharper, something wrong."Here," Jareth said, stopping near a clearing.Kaelan's gaze landed on the markings first. Dark s

This isn't over, Kaelan."Kaelan’s fingers clenched around the armrest of his chair. Zane’s last words still echoed in his mind, a ghost refusing to be exorcized. Even in defeat, the bastard had found a way to haunt him. The village had begun to rebuild, but the scars—both seen and unseen—would take far longer to heal.Rhea sat across from him, her hands curled around a warm mug, eyes distant. The dim candlelight flickered, casting shifting shadows on the walls of their shared home. For the first time in a long while, Kaelan didn’t feel the weight of solitude pressing against his chest. And yet, the silence between them now felt heavier than ever.“You’re brooding again,” Rhea murmured, taking a sip of her tea.Kaelan exhaled sharply. “I’m thinking.”She arched a brow. “Same thing.”His lips twitched, but the amusement didn’t reach his eyes. “You don’t believe Zane is truly gone, do you?”Rhea’s grip tightened around the mug. “He didn’t die with regret. He died with vengeance in his e
