더 보기Kael's POVEverything blurred. Magnus had his hand on Amara’s throat, squeezing. She gasped for air. The sweaty, bloody smell was strong. The ground was rough and cold under me. My heart went wild , but I stayed put, trying to think straight.Pick, Magnus said, sounding calm, like he knew what I’d do. Like I was just a piece in his game.Amara looked right at me, hard and clear. She didn’t beg or cry. But her eyes screamed: Don’t do it.I squeezed my hands, shaking with anger. I wanted to charge, tear Magnus apart, end this mess. But I knew he wasn’t bluffing. If I fought, he’d hurt her in ways I couldn't even imagine.He wanted to break me, to make me break myself.I took a deep breath. Let her go.Magnus smirked. So, what’s your answer?I tried to keep my voice steady. You want me gone, I said, picking each word carefully. But come on, Magnus. You want to control me.”His smirk faded a little.I kept going. If I leave, what’s stopping me from coming back? What if I Come back stronge
Kael’s POVDawn felt super heavy, like it was sitting right on my shoulders. Another fight was brewing, not just some scrap with claws, but a real test of power, who was in charge, and who would live.I could still smell blood in the training area from yesterday's beatdown. Magnus wasn't messing around. This wasn't training. He was trying to break me, plain and simple.But I wasn’t gonna let him.Amara was next to me, solid as a rock in this mess. She looked beat, paler than usual. But she wouldn't let it show. She stood tall, even after all the crap she’d been through.A bunch of fighters gathered around, sizing us up. Magnus was in the middle, looking all-powerful as usual. But today felt different. He had this smirk, like he was secretly enjoying himself, and it set off all my alarms.Today, Magnus boomed, we test who's really loyal.Loyalty. The word made my stomach churn. I'd seen Magnus test loyalty before—making people fight each other, pushing them until they dropped, making t
Kael's POVSun was slightly up when I found myself at the training grounds. The morning was cold, and the wind was sharp. Last night was replaying in my head like a bad dream – Magnus's threats, Amara's hurt, the blood on my hands – I couldn't shake it off.My hands were in tight fists. I was breathing hard, trying to keep my anger down. I had to stay calm, or Magnus would get what he wanted. He wanted me to fall apart, to give in to his games.But I wasn't going to let that happen.Then I saw him through the fog – Magnus. He walked like he owned the place, with that smirk he always wore, like he knew what I was thinking. Some fighters were behind him, looking cold and serious. They weren't there to train; they were there to scare me.Up early, Magnus said, stopping close to me. Trying to show off?I didn't say anything. My jaw was tight as I looked him in the eyes.Magnus chuckled and shook his head. You really think you're untouchable? That you can do whatever you want without somet
Amara's POVStink of blood and sweat was heavy this morning, a reminder of all the fights in the training area. My claws scraped in the dirt as I moved inside Kael’s head, my instincts getting sharper. He was stiff, his muscles tight like a cat ready to pounce. I could feel his feelings—anger, defiance, and a bit of fear he wouldn't admit.Good. Fear keeps you on your toes. But it can also screw you up if you're not careful.I growled softly, wanting Kael to let me take over, even for a second. But he wouldn't, like always.Not yet, Beast.I was annoyed and losing patience. Magnus stood there with a nasty smile. He was happy and thought he’d won. But I knew better. He was too cocky for his own good.“Today is easy,” Magnus said, his voice cold. “Fight until I tell you to stop.”That made the warriors uneasy. This wasn't just training. It was a test—to see how tough they were, how well they listened, and how brutal they could be.Darius stepped up, smirking at Kael with a challenge in
Kael’s POVIts morning, the air bit with a chill as I stood on the training grounds. It smelled of damp earth mixed with the metallic tang of iron. I balled my hands into fists so tight that my fingernails sunk into my skin. All around, the Blackthorn warriors were like wolves about to feed, watching and wanting to see blood. Magnus had made sure they were up for it.Amara stood next to me, still as a stone. Her face was a mask, but I felt the tension radiating from her shoulders. She knew this whole thing was just a setup – I did too. But we couldn't back down. We had to go along with Magnus’s messed-up game.He was standing on a raised platform, looking down on us. His arms were crossed, and he wore this cocky grin that always got under my skin. Today, we will see what you are made of he announced, his voice echoing across the grounds.Immediately, a huge warrior came forward. You could tell he'd been through a lot by the number of scars he had. He cracked his knuckles and sneered a
Kael’s POVI walked out of those old, broken-down buildings, and my skin felt buzzy, like I was plugged into something. This energy wasn't mine. I could feel it inside me, like an animal pacing in a cage. Everything was sharper. I could smell things better and hear things I normally wouldn't. It was like someone cranked up the volume on the world.I wasn't the same person who walked in.Whatever happened in there, it changed me.The air was freezing, but I barely noticed. I kept hearing those words in my head, over and over: You're not his son anymore. You're part of something bigger.A small part of me wanted to say no, to push back against this thing that had gotten inside me. But another part of me—the part that remembered Magnus destroying everything—welcomed it. Why?Because now I had a shot at taking him down.I started running, the trees turned into green streaks. I was lighter, quicker. It felt like I could bend the air around me.It felt amazing.But nothing's free, is it?I
Kael’s POVThe night felt heavy, still. My heart was the only drum beating. I slipped through the woods, straying over the border, ignoring the stink markers that screamed, 'Danger!' Didn't belong there, but I didn't give a damn.Magnus came out on top.His taunts looped in my head, a nasty soundtrack of doubt and shame.You're never going to be strong enough to keep her safe.You're nothing.She'll fall apart, just like your mom did.I squeezed my hands into fists so hard my nails bit into my skin. I had spent years trying to show him up, but I now saw the truth plain as day—no matter what I did, he would always stay one step ahead. He just knew how to get under my skin, how to make things hurt so bad I couldn’t catch my breath.And I just let it happen.I stumbled forward, gasping for air.I couldn’t let it end this way.I just wouldn’t.That’s why I was here, in this forsaken place.The ruins rose up ahead, broken stone walls covered in nasty vines. Nobody ever visits. Not because
KAEL POV Kael’s world fractured around him. The woman before him—regal, unyielding—radiated power beyond anything he had ever witnessed. Shadows twisted and coiled at her feet, responding to her presence like living things. The air itself seemed to vibrate with the weight of something ancient, something eternal.His mate. His Amara.And yet… not.Magnus’s smirk widened as he stepped closer to her, his voice laced with dark amusement. “Do you feel it, Alpha?” he taunted. “The shift in the air? The weight of destiny pressing upon you?”Kael barely heard him. His entire focus was on Amara—on the way her golden eyes flickered with something unrecognizable, on the eerie stillness of her expression. The markings on her skin pulsed, illuminating the dark chamber with an ethereal glow.“Amara.” His voice was hoarse, barely above a whisper. “It’s me.”She bowed her head slightly as if studying him, but no warmth flickered in her gaze. “You say my name as though it holds power over me,” she mu
KaelKael’s muscles coiled tight as his wolf clawed to break free, but chains of uncertainty held him back. The scent of burning torches mixed with the metallic tang of blood, thick in the air. He couldn’t afford to lose control—not now.Not when Amara was gone.A growl rumbled in his chest, his vision sharpening as he locked onto Magnus. The bastard stood there, arms crossed, amusement playing at the corners of his lips as if this was all some twisted game. And maybe, to him, it was."Where is she?" Kael demanded, his voice raw with rage.Magnus chuckled, shaking his head. "You alphas are all the same—so predictable. Always chasing after a mate you can never truly possess."Kael took a threatening step forward, but the hooded figure beside Magnus shifted slightly, their presence sending a ripple of unease through him. A new player had entered the game, and the power rolling off them sent a warning through his instincts."You feel it, don’t you?" the cloaked figure murmured. Their vo
Amara’s POVThe floor beneath my knees felt ice-cold and unforgiving, much like the life I lived. I crouched low, scrubbing away the grime that had built up overnight. My fingers ached, raw from the coarse bristles of the mop, but I didn’t dare slow down. There was no room for imperfections here, not in Alpha Derrick’s pack.A creak behind me made me freeze mid-scrub. My heart leaped, fearing that my sluggish pace had already caught someone’s attention. When I glanced over my shoulder, it was only Tara, another maid, standing in the doorway.“Alpha’s asking for you,” she said curtly, her tone a mixture of pity and warning.The mop slipped from my hands, clattering to the floor. My stomach churned. Alpha Derrick rarely summoned me unless he had a reason to make my life even more unbearable.“Did he say why?” I stammered, standing on shaky legs.Tara shook her head, avoiding my gaze. “You’d better not keep him waiting.”I didn’t need her reminder. Hastily wiping my hands on my ragged ap...
