“I’m on my way. What happened?” I linked to my Beta as I stormed out of the palace.

“We’re under attack at the Eastern border,” he said, his tone strained. “Some powerful creatures.”

“I’m coming.” I severed the link, my pulse quickening. Zion, my wolf, growled in the back of my mind, his bloodlust igniting like wildfire. He was ready for the kill. I smirked.

“Not yet, Zion. Not yet,” I muttered, gripping the wheel as I sped off. My beast was dangerously impatient, and it had taken years to tame him. If I wasn’t fast enough to act, he’d gladly take over, and when he did, it wasn’t pretty.

The drive was a blur. In minutes, I arrived at the border. Chaos had taken over. The scent of blood and the clash of claws filled the air. My warriors fought ferociously, but the enemy, a pack of towering Lycans…was overwhelming. These weren’t from around here.

I stepped out of the car and scanned the battlefield. Amid the chaos, I spotted Cross locked in a brutal fight with a Lycan who

    Maxwell “This is just the beginning of our attack on your pack, King Maxwell. Release her, and peace will return to your kingdom.” His voice rang like a warning bell, echoing in the silence of the basement. My sister’s words flooded back to me…her warnings, her prophecy. Protect your mate, Maxwell. Challenges will come, but you must remain steadfast. Is this it? The moment she foresaw? I clenched my fists, my wolf, Zion, clawing at my control. The man before me dared to call my mate theirs. The sheer audacity made my blood boil. My vision tinged red, and I could almost feel my hands wrapping around his throat, snapping his neck. But I held back. Not yet. Not here. Without a word, I turned on my heel and left the basement, my steps eerily quiet despite the storm raging inside me. The faint sound of footsteps followed. I didn’t need to turn to know it was Cross. His scent was unmistakable…loyalty and concern wrapped in one. But I wasn’t in the mood for his probing questions. He

    Maxwell I cupped her face, my thumb brushing gently over her soft cheek. “You’re mine, Delilah. And I’ll do whatever it takes to protect you.” With those words, I leaned down, sealing her fate…and mine…with a deep, soul-binding kiss. The passion between us was electric, and her response left me stunned. Even in her fragile state, she matched my hunger, her lips speaking a silent confession of desire that mirrored my own. Pulling back just enough to breathe, I stripped away the barrier of my clothes, leaving nothing between us. Slowly, reverently, I helped her out of her delicate nightwear. The sight of her took my breath away. She was flawless, a vision of perfection that ignited something primal deep inside me. My predatory gaze roamed over her, my wolf clawing at the edges of my control, desperate to claim her. But I wouldn’t let it. She was delicate, and tonight, I needed to be gentle. My restraint was a thin thread, but her glowing golden eyes held me captive. As I knelt be

    Maxwell The realization struck me like a bolt of lightning. My entire world tilted on its axis as I stared into her glowing, otherworldly eyes. The raw energy radiating from her wasn’t just adrenaline or passion…it was something ancient, untamed, and fierce. She wasn’t fragile, as I had foolishly assumed. She was a force of nature, a storm personified. My hands cupped her face with possessive need, my fingers trembling with restraint as I gazed at her. Every fiber of me wanted to claim her in that moment, but I knew there was a conversation we had to have first. My sister’s cryptic words echoed in my mind, now making perfect sense. Her eyes searched mine, filled with questions she didn’t voice. I closed my eyes for a moment, steadying the chaos swirling within me, before I opened them and met her gaze. “You’re a Lycan, Delilah,” I said, my voice low and steady. She didn’t flinch, didn’t even blink. Instead, she nodded, her calm demeanor betraying none of the shock I expec

    Farrell “I know the danger is getting worse,” I said, sitting in front of the elders and my security team. “But setting a trap for them is the only way out. I heard they take females from every place they attack. Let’s give them what they want… and that will be their end.” The room filled with murmurs and whispers. They didn’t agree with me. I could feel it. “If anyone has a better idea,” I said, my voice tight, “say it now.” My patience was running out. Ever since I last saw Delilah…my wife…I haven’t been the same. It feels like something is missing inside me, and if I don’t find it, I might lose my mind. I’ve always loved her. Even when I knew she was human. That didn’t change how I felt. She was going to be my Luna, until the goddess twisted fate and gave me a destined mate. A destined mate is rare these days. I had waited long enough. Sandra is a strong wolf. If the goddess herself chose her, who was I to say no? But now… everything’s different. While I was trying

    Farrell The moment we welcomed the Lycan warriors sent by King Maxwell, Raymond and I left the borders of our Pack. Their arrival brought some comfort. For the first time in weeks, I believed my people would sleep safely tonight. But even with that peace, my heart still felt heavy. I couldn’t shake the strange feeling gnawing at my chest. Was it because of what Sandra said? Or… was it something deeper? I kept asking myself the same questions again and again. Could Sandra be right? Was Delilah hiding something? If she was truly a fake, as Sandra claimed, why does every part of me still crave her so much? Why does my heart still beat for her? It wasn’t just longing. It was something fierce, burning through my chest, day and night. I missed her…her smile, her voice, her touch. Every second without her felt like I was missing a piece of myself. I needed to bring her back. Fake or not, she was still my wife. Legally. Spiritually. Emotionally. She hadn’t divorced me. And I would

    Delilah Little by little, I’m uncovering truths about myself I never imagined. I used to think I was human…that’s what I was raised to believe. Whenever I felt strange like this in the past, I would faint. My nanny would always give me some herbal concoction, and after a few days, I’d feel better. But now I understand those episodes for what they were: I was in heat. The realization sends a shiver down my spine. I’ve always felt different, but I ignored it, told myself it was nothing. Now, all the pieces are falling into place, and I’m terrified of what I’m becoming. Since that night with Maxwell at the hotel, everything about me has changed. My body feels different…heightened. It’s as though every nerve in my body is alive, pulsing with energy I don’t know how to control. I can hear Maxwell’s thoughts so clearly, as if they’re my own. But it’s not just him…I can hear others, too. The first time it happened, I thought I was losing my mind. But no, this is real. It’s me. Then th

    Maxwell "Your Majesty, you haven't said a word in over thirty minutes since you arrived. Is something wrong?" Alpha Farrell’s voice broke through my thoughts for what felt like the hundredth time. Still, I had nothing to say. The truth was, I did have a problem. A big one. The Moon Goddess had cursed me with a mate…a woman who was also bonded to another man. If I merely liked Delilah before, now I loved her with every fiber of my being. And if I loved her before, I was completely and utterly lost in her now. Her charm was my undoing. She was supposed to be mine and mine alone, yet here I was, forced to share the one woman meant for me. I left the palace today with only one intention: to meet the man fate had cruelly chosen to share my mate. A part of me wanted to reveal to him that the woman he called his Luna was a fake, but I couldn’t bring myself to do it. Call me selfish…I didn’t care. The moment he knew the truth, he would fight for Delilah. And I couldn’t bear the thought o

    Maxwell What just happened? Who were these people? My mind reeled as my eyes stayed locked on Delilah. She stood like a storm given form, her glowing, laser-like eyes blazing with raw power. This wasn’t defense. This was devastation. The air reeked of charred flesh, and the scorched bodies of wolves littered the ground around her. Yet she wasn’t done. Her strikes came swift, unyielding, merciless. My two bodyguards shifted uneasily, hands on their weapons, ready to act. I held up a hand, stopping them in their tracks. In front of her stood a man, his silver hair glinting under the hot sun. His sharp features bore an eerie resemblance to hers…there was something connecting them, though I couldn’t yet piece it together. But now wasn’t the time for questions. My Lycan beast roared within, clawing to take over, demanding I protect my mate. But Delilah wasn’t helpless. No, she was extraordinary. “You’re not supposed to be able to do that,” the man rasped, his voice breaking with stra

    Delilah I was stunned. How could he be in Rut? Was there something about their kind that I still didn’t understand? My mind raced with questions, but I forced myself to respond calmly. “Can it wait until I’m done with Sandra and the two rogue Lycans?” I asked, trying to buy time. Before the King could reply, Farrell’s voice broke through our mental connection, snapping us back to reality. Yet, the King’s interest in our conversation was evident. I could see it in the way his eyes lingered on me, filled with a mix of desire and possessiveness. There is no going back from this. “I’ll have to leave the two of you for now,” Farrell said, his voice tight. “I need to go to the office to see what’s happening there.” “There’s no need for that,” the King responded sharply. “We’re leaving now.” Farrell’s jaw clenched, and his fists balled at his sides. It was clear he was angry at the thought of me leaving with the King. The tension between the two men was palpable, and I found myself ca

    Delilah All eyes turned to him. “What news?” Farrell asked, his tone sharp but curious. “We have over 200 human guests from different countries lodging in our resort as we speak. And the good news is that we have reservations for over 500 more. They’re coming to experience our wildlife park and nature. Tourism is back to our park,” the man explained, his excitement contagious. Raymond stood up immediately, his face lighting up with joy. “Delilah! She’s the luckiest person I’ve ever known. She’s our fortune,” he exclaimed, coming over to kiss my cheeks. But before he could, a low growl filled the room. “Take your hands off my mate,” King Maxwell warned, his voice commanding and filled with authority. Raymond immediately withdrew, his hands raised in surrender. I felt a flush of embarrassment rise to my cheeks. It was becoming increasingly difficult to navigate the possessiveness of my mates. Who was more possessive, Farrell or Maxwell? I couldn’t tell. “Raymond, please go with

    Delilah “Welcome back home, Delilah. It’s good to have you back.” Raymond’s voice startled me from behind as he walked closer to where I stood in the kitchen. This kitchen, once stolen from me, was now mine again. The familiar scent of fresh herbs and the warmth of the stove brought back memories of happier times. I was making breakfast, something Farrell always loved. The sizzle of bacon and the aroma of freshly baked bread filled the air, creating a sense of comfort and belonging. I turned around, and Raymond was already in front of me. “Raymond,” I said softly, and without hesitation, he pulled me into a tight hug. His embrace was warm and reassuring.. He peppered my face with kisses, making me laugh. “Let me have you to myself before your possessive mates come in here,” he joked, his voice light and teasing. I laughed even more, the sound echoing through the kitchen. But the moment was short-lived. “Will you take your hands off her?” Farrell’s warning voice cut through the

    Farrell Stepping out of the shower, I wrapped a towel around my waist and hurriedly made my way out of the bathroom. My mind was still racing from the events of the previous day, the Lycans who had dared to threaten my mate. They would pay for their audacity. But as I stepped into my bedroom, my thoughts came to an abrupt halt. My breath caught in my throat, and I nearly stumbled back in shock. There, on my bed, lay a figure, asleep and serene. My heart pounded as my eyes traced the familiar curves of her body. Delilah? My mind reeled. Was I imagining things? Was she really here, or was my mind playing cruel tricks on me? I blinked hard, trying to clear my vision, but she remained, real, tangible, and breathtakingly beautiful. Her intoxicating scent filled the room, wrapping around me like a warm embrace. It was unmistakably her. My body reacted instantly, a surge of desire coursing through me. I moved closer, my steps slow and deliberate, as if afraid she might vanish if I made a

    Maxwell I felt warmth enveloping me, a comforting heat radiating from somewhere deep within. My body instinctively sought more of it, craving the solace it brought. My hands moved across my bare chest, and her name slipped from my lips like a prayer. “Delilah,” I whispered, my voice trembling with longing. The sensation of wet kisses along my jaw and nose felt so real, so vivid. Her intoxicating scent surrounded me, pulling me deeper into the illusion. But the pain of her absence was a constant ache, a blade twisting in my chest. It was unbearable, yet I couldn’t let go of this fleeting fantasy, no matter how much it hurt. The kisses grew more intense, and I moaned her name again, louder this time. “Delilah,” I breathed, my voice breaking. “My King, I am here with you,” her voice echoed in my ear, soft and reassuring. It was so real that I chuckled in my sleep, though my eyes remained closed. I was awake, yet I clung to the dream, unwilling to let it fade. Morning would come so

    Farrell The pain I’ve endured is beyond words. Ever since I discovered that she was my mate, my soul has been in turmoil. The ache of her absence has been a constant torment, a gnawing emptiness that refuses to fade. And yet, she is my wife. The irony is cruel, a twist of fate that mocks me every day. How can she be so close, yet feel so far away? How can she be mine, yet not truly mine? But tonight, everything changed. The heavens opened, and the rain poured down in sheets, as if the skies themselves were weeping for us. It was in this storm that I finally found her, truly found her. The moment our lips met, it was as if the world ceased to exist. There was only her, only us. I kissed her hungrily, desperately, pouring every ounce of the longing, the pain, and the love I had carried for so long into that kiss. And she kissed me back with the same fervor, the same need. She wanted me, just as I had always wanted her. The rain soaked through our clothes, clinging to our skin, but n

    Delilah “Your Majesty,” Farrell called, his voice steady but laced with urgency. “Now that we’ve cleared the air, can my mate stay with me, just for today? I need time alone with her to resolve our differences.” His request hung in the air, directed at King Maxwell, who stood rigid, his jaw clenched tightly. Maxwell’s silence spoke volumes. Jealousy burned in his eyes, though he fought to keep it hidden. Under normal circumstances, I would have refused without hesitation. But after what i had witnessed today, i felt powerless to deny either of my mates anything. “Alpha Farrell,” Rowan interjected, her tone diplomatic yet firm. “We understand your desire to bond with your mate. It is your right, as the goddess has willed it. However, don’t you think it’s best to ask Delilah herself?” Her words were cautious, a strategic move to avoid conflict. I understood her reasoning all too well. Farrell’s gaze shifted to me, and I found myself unable to look away. If the decision were mine al

    Delilah Then, just as I was about to surrender to the void, a whisper echoed in my mind, faint, urgent, and achingly familiar. “Not yet.” A surge of power pulsed through me, jolting me awake. But this wasn’t my world. It was another realm entirely. The seven women I had seen before were there again, just like the time I was with Farrell. This time, however, they turned to me, their expressions softening as they welcomed me. I felt fear clawing at my chest. One thing was certain: I might as well be dead now. Suddenly, a shining figure appeared from nowhere, joining us. The light radiating from them was so intense that I couldn’t make out their features, but something about their presence felt feminine. As the figure approached, I shut my eyes tightly, unable to bear the brilliance. But then, her voice washed over me, calm and reassuring. “Do not be afraid. Accept the fate I have chosen for you, Delilah. Only then will you understand your true purpose and identity. Now, open yo

    Delilah We arrived at the Blue Moon Pack. Our convoy came to a halt right in front of the place I once called home. The memories rushed back like a flood, each one sharper than the last. I blinked rapidly, forcing back the tears that threatened to fall. The convoy consisted of six sleek, black luxury vans, more than I had expected. I never imagined I would return to this place, let alone accompanied by people I barely knew. In my van, King Maxwell sat beside me, his presence both a comfort and a reminder of my purpose here. His sister, Rowan, occupied the seat behind us. Rosa and Zod were also with us, despite Zod’s injuries not having fully healed. For reasons unknown, he had insisted on coming. The Beta, Cross, rode in another van, along with some of our pack members. The rest of the convoy was filled with warriors. “Are you ready to walk into your home?” Maxwell’s deep voice broke through my thoughts. I turned to glare at him. He chuckled, amused by my reaction. I swatted hi
