Deadly Alpha Battle Lola’s POV
Jessica approached from behind, her steps careful. “Lola, you should rest.” I turned to face her, noticing the cuts and bruises scattered across her face. I shook my head. “There’s too much to think about. Rest can wait.” She gave me a tired smile. “There’s always too much to think about, but that doesn’t mean you can keep going like this. Come on. Mike wants to see you.” Reluctantly, I followed her back toward the packhouse. The smell of damp earth clung to the air, mixed with the faint metallic tang of blood. I avoided looking at the ground too much—there were too many reminders of what had just transpired. When we reached the main hall, Mike was standing by the window, staring out at the horizon. His broad shoulders were tense, his posture stiff. For a moment, I hesitated, unsure if I should interrupt. “You’re here,” Mike said without turning around, his voice low. “Yes,” I replied, stepping further into the room. Jessica lingered by the door before quietly excusing h

I stood by the window in my room, staring out at the forest. The crystal sat on the table behind me, its faint glow a constant reminder of the power and danger it held. Jessica had tried to distract me earlier, talking about mundane things like the patrol schedule and training rotations, but my mind was elsewhere. There was no denying it anymore: the crystal was changing me. It wasn’t just the strange connection I felt to its power. It was deeper than that. Every time I touched it, I felt stronger, more aware. But there was also a darkness creeping at the edges of that awareness, something I couldn’t quite name. A knock on the door pulled me from my thoughts. “Come in,” I called, turning to see who it was. Mike entered, his presence filling the room. He looked tired, but his eyes were steady, as always. “Lola,” he said, closing the door behind him. “How are you holding up?” I gestured toward the crystal. “Same as always. Trying to figure out what this thing wants from me

“Not hungry?” Jessica asked again, her voice low, a faint worry shadowing her eyes. I shook my head, the tension in my shoulders refusing to ease. “There’s too much on my mind.” Jessica nodded, her fingers absently picking at the edges of her bread. She wasn’t eating either, though she pretended to. “Mike’s been locked in his office all night. Whatever’s coming next, it’s big.” “I know,” I murmured, glancing at the untouched food on my plate. “That’s what worries me.” The room seemed too quiet, the silence broken only by the occasional clinking of utensils against plates. A heavy atmosphere weighed on us all, and the faint murmur of conversations at the far end of the dining hall did nothing to ease my growing sense of unease. The door creaked open, and I instinctively turned toward the sound. Mike stepped in, his presence commanding as always, though this time it was different. His hair was disheveled, and the dark circles under his eyes told a story of sleepless nights and

“The Shadow Caverns are unlike anything we’ve faced before,” Mike said, his voice steady but filled with an undercurrent of warning. “Tom has the advantage of terrain and magic, but we can counter that with strategy and unity.” I stood near Jessica and Marcus, my arms crossed as I absorbed his words. Every part of me wanted to charge into those caverns and put an end to Tom, but I knew the danger was real. “Jessica, Marcus, you’ll lead the second group,” Mike continued. “Your task is to secure the outer perimeter and make sure no reinforcements reach Tom. Lola…” My name caught me off guard, and I straightened, meeting his gaze. “You’ll be with me,” Mike said. “We’re heading into the heart of the caverns. That’s where Tom will be.” The room fell silent. No one questioned Mike’s plan, but the tension in the air was palpable. “When do we leave?” Jessica asked, breaking the silence. “Dawn,” Mike replied. “Get some rest. You’ll need it.” --- I left the hall with Jessica,

"This thing," she murmured, "it’s at the center of everything. Tom, the witches, even the rogues—they all want it."Mike, seated on the opposite side of the table, looked up from the map he was studying. His expression was hard, his eyes clouded with thought. "It’s more than that," he said. "This relic isn’t just a source of power. It’s a key to something much bigger."Lola frowned. "What do you mean?"He sighed, leaning back in his chair. "Our ancestors hid it for a reason. If Tom wants it so badly, it’s because he believes it will give him dominion over every supernatural creature in Tamsin—and beyond."Jessica entered the room, her expression grim. "We’ve got trouble."Mike’s gaze snapped to her. "What now?""Zara’s gone," Jessica said. "Disappeared sometime after dawn. The patrols didn’t see anything, but the guards at the east gate swear they caught her scent heading toward the forest."Lola’s stomach tightened. "You think she’s gone back to Tom?"Jessica shrugged, though her fac

The moon hung low, casting an eerie silver glow over Tamsin’s forest. I couldn’t shake the feeling that, despite our victory, something darker loomed on the horizon. I stared at the relic, now encased in an iron box reinforced with sigils carved by our elders. It pulsed faintly, as if alive, its faint glow teasing the edges of my vision.Mike stood across the room, his frame rigid. He hadn’t spoken much since the battle. The fire in his eyes earlier had dimmed, replaced by an unyielding focus. I admired his strength, but I knew even he had limits.“Lola.” His voice broke the heavy silence. He didn’t turn to face me but kept his eyes on the map sprawled across the table. “We need to find Tom before he regroups.”I stepped closer, careful to avoid the shattered remnants of the earlier chaos. “And Zara? If she’s alive, she knows things. She could be the key to stopping this.”Mike’s jaw tightened. “If she’s alive,” he echoed, his tone sharp. “She left of her own accord.”“You don’t know

The journey back to the packhouse was tense. The forest seemed more alive than before, every shadow a potential threat. Zara’s unconscious form lay draped across Mike’s shoulders, her fragile frame a stark contrast to his unyielding determination. Jessica walked beside me, her hands still clenched around her daggers, while the rest of the warriors kept a tight formation around us.We said little during the trek. The attack had drained us, and Zara’s cryptic warning lingered in my thoughts. If the witches no longer needed the relic, what were they after now? And how could we possibly stop them?The packhouse loomed into view just as the first rays of dawn pierced the sky. Exhausted but alert, we crossed the threshold, the familiar scent of wood and stone offering little comfort. Marcus was waiting, his sharp gaze softening as he assessed our state.“Report,” he said briskly.“Zara’s alive,” Mike replied, setting her down gently on a cot in the corner. “But she’s unconscious. And we’ve

Her laughter cut through the chaos like a blade, sharp and chilling. The woman from my vision stood before me, the glowing sphere pulsing in her hands, casting strange shadows on the stone walls of the fortress. Her green eyes locked onto mine, daring me to come closer.“You fight with such tenacity,” she said, her voice smooth as silk. “But you’re wasting your energy. The veil is already weakening. There’s no stopping it now.” My grip tightened on my dagger. Every instinct told me she was lying, that there was still time to stop her. But doubt clawed at the edges of my resolve. “Who are you?” I demanded, keeping my stance defensive as I moved to flank her. “Why help Tom destroy everything?” She tilted her head, amusement flickering across her features. “I am Elara. And I’m not helping Tom. He’s helping me.” Her words sent a jolt through me. “So you’re the one pulling the strings.” Her smile widened. “I’ve been pulling strings for centuries, dear. Tom is just another pawn in

The cavern buzzed with energy, the witches’ chants echoing in the damp, stony space. The relic in my pocket hummed louder, a sharp vibration that felt like it might tear through me. The air was thick, crackling with a tension that pressed down on my chest. Tom stood in the center, his hands outstretched, his red eyes glowing brighter than ever. Zara lingered behind him, her head bowed, her hands trembling at her sides. “Lola,” Tom said, his voice carrying over the noise, calm yet commanding. “Give me the relic. Now.” I tightened my fingers around the pouch, glaring at him. “You’re wasting your time, Tom. I’d rather die than hand it over.” He tilted his head, studying me like I was a puzzle he couldn’t quite solve. “You say that as if I’m giving you a choice.” “I’ll never help you,” I shot back, my voice firm. “You can threaten me all you want, but I won’t let you destroy everything we’ve worked for.” Tom laughed, the sound cold and sharp. “You think this is about destructi
Deadly Alpha Battle Lola’s POV
Pain shot through my body, dragging me back to consciousness. My shoulder burned, my head felt heavy, and the faint metallic taste of blood lingered in my mouth. But I wasn’t dead. Not yet. When I opened my eyes, the world around me was a blur. My vision cleared slowly, revealing the cold, damp interior of a cavern. The atmosphere was thick, carrying the scent of decay and damp stone. Chains rattled as I tried to move, and I realized my wrists were bound. “Awake already, Lola?” That voice. Smooth and mocking. It sent a chill down my spine. I turned my head, wincing as the movement sent a sharp pain through my neck. There he was. Tom. He leaned against a jagged stone wall, his red eyes glowing faintly in the dim light. “Where… where am I?” My voice came out hoarse. Tom smiled, stepping closer. “Welcome to my little sanctuary. Don’t bother trying to escape; those chains are spelled. Not even your precious Alpha could break them.” “Where’s Mike?” I demanded, my voice gainin
Deadly Alpha Battle Lola’s POV
No one smiled. No one spoke without purpose. Everyone was preparing for the battle they knew was coming. I stood in the council room, staring at the map spread across the table. Red pins marked where we had defeated Tom’s forces before—three times. Each time, we thought we had stopped him, but he always came back stronger. Jessica walked in, carrying two mugs of tea. She set one down in front of me. “You’ve been staring at that map for hours. You need a break.” I shook my head. “We need a plan, not a break. Tom’s not just coming this time. He’s coming to win.” Jessica sat down across from me, blowing on her tea. “We’ve beaten him before. We can do it again.” “Have we really beaten him?” I asked, meeting her eyes. “The first time, we destroyed his advance group, but he regrouped. The second time, we ambushed his camp, but he escaped. And the third time—” “We pushed him back at the eastern border,” Jessica interrupted. “We won.” “Did we?” I pressed. “Or did he let us think
Deadly Alpha Battle Lola’s POV
I stood on the balcony, staring at the quiet forest. The moon was bright, and the air smelled fresh, but my thoughts were a mess. My fingers brushed the pouch at my side, the black crystal inside pressing against my palm. “Why aren’t you asleep?” Mike’s voice broke my thoughts. I turned to see him leaning in the doorway, his broad shoulders filling the space. He looked tired, but his eyes were sharp, watching me carefully. “I can’t sleep,” I said. “There’s too much going on.” He stepped closer, the floorboards creaking under his boots. “You’re worried about the battle.” “Of course I am. You heard Jessica. Tom’s forces are on the move, and they’ve got something… different with them. What if we’re not ready?” Mike leaned on the balcony rail beside me. “We’ll be ready. I’ve been through enough battles to know one thing: we fight harder when we have something to protect.” I sighed, looking out at the trees. “But this time, it’s different. He’s not just sending rogues. He’s s
Deadly Alpha Battle Lola’s POV
The packhouse stood silent, a sense of unease creeping through its halls. The echo of our footsteps on the wood floor seemed louder than it should be, the air thick with tension. We had returned from the eastern border, but our minds were still on the mission. The rune we had discovered, the rogue attack—it was all a warning that we couldn’t afford to ignore.As the warriors prepared for another night’s rest, I found myself back in the war room with Mike, Marcus, Jessica, and Zara. The map sprawled out in front of us, a web of paths, borders, and unexplained marks.“We’ve neutralized the rune,” I said, breaking the silence that had settled over the room. “But something doesn’t feel right. I can’t shake the feeling that it’s not over.”Mike nodded, his eyes narrowing as he stared at the map. “We’re not dealing with something ordinary here. Elara’s magic is still out there, scattered, but it’s building up again. It’s as if it’s waiting.”“Waiting for what?” Jessica’s voice cut through t
Deadly Alpha Battle Lola’s POV
The packhouse was quieter than usual. After the events in the Shadowed Glade, the warriors were resting, regrouping for whatever might come next. But quiet wasn’t peace. It felt more like the calm before another storm. Mike called a council meeting shortly after we returned. I knew it wasn’t just to debrief—it was to figure out our next steps. As I made my way to the war room, I caught Jessica pacing in the hallway. “Can’t sit still, huh?” I asked. She stopped, folding her arms. “I don’t like waiting. Every time we take a breath, something worse happens.” “I get it,” I said, placing a hand on her shoulder. “But we need to regroup. Rushing in blind won’t help anyone.” Jessica sighed, but she nodded. “Let’s see what Mike has planned.” --- Inside the war room, the atmosphere was tense. Marcus stood by the map table, his arms crossed, while Zara hovered near the back, flipping through a small notebook. Mike paced at the head of the table, his face set in deep thought. “Fin
Deadly Alpha Battle Lola’s POV
Elara was gone—or so it seemed—but the shadow of her actions lingered like a storm cloud over Tamsin. The packhouse was bustling with activity as repairs were made to the damaged walls and warriors patched their wounds. It should have been a time for celebration, but unease simmered beneath the surface. As I walked through the courtyard, my gaze drifted to the young trainees sparring under Marcus’s watchful eye. Their movements were sharp, but their exhaustion was evident. Everyone felt the weight of what had happened. “Lola!” Jessica called out, jogging to catch up with me. Her usual playful demeanor was tempered by the somber mood. “Jessica,” I said, offering her a small smile. “How’s your arm?” “Better,” she said, flexing it slightly. “The healer said it’ll be fully functional in a day or two.” She paused, her expression turning serious. “But that’s not why I came to find you.” “What is it?” “It’s Zara,” Jessica said, lowering her voice. “She’s been acting... strange. I
Deadly Alpha Battle Lola’s POV
The glow of the crystal dimmed as I tucked it away, yet its presence remained heavy in my mind. For weeks, it had been the focus of our battles and strategies—a beacon of power Elara wanted desperately. Now, as silence settled over the packhouse after the meeting, I couldn’t shake the feeling that our time to act was running out. I stood on the balcony outside my quarters, watching the moonlight bathe the training grounds in a pale silver hue. Below, the pack worked tirelessly, repairing the walls and tending to wounds from our latest skirmish. Their determination was admirable, but even I could see the exhaustion etched into their movements. “We need to end this,” I murmured to myself, gripping the railing tightly. “You’re not wrong,” Mike’s voice came from behind me, low and steady. I turned to find him leaning against the doorway, his arms crossed as he studied me. His presence, as always, was both reassuring and commanding. “You should be resting,” he added, his tone sof
Deadly Alpha Battle Lola’s POV
For weeks, Elara had been uncharacteristically silent. No attacks, no cryptic threats—just silence. But silence from her wasn’t peace. It was preparation, and we all knew it. I stood at the edge of the training grounds, watching as the warriors sparred in the late afternoon light. Their movements were sharp, their focus unyielding. They trained like their lives depended on it—because they did. “Lola!” Jessica’s voice cut through my thoughts. I turned to see her jogging toward me, her usual playful grin absent. “What’s wrong?” I asked. “Mike needs you in the war room,” she said, her tone serious. I nodded, my pulse steady as I followed her inside. The war room was buzzing with activity. Maps and reports covered the large table, and the senior warriors surrounded Mike as he issued orders. His commanding presence filled the room, but when his eyes met mine, they softened briefly before hardening again. “Lola,” he said, motioning for me to join him. “We’ve received intellige
