As soon as Hudson entered his room, a wave of anger hit him. He punched the glass wall, and the loud crack echoed in the quiet space. In his blind rage, he knocked over decorative pieces, shattering delicate porcelain and sending glass flying everywhere. He kicked the table, feeling a rush of satisfaction as it fell over, mirroring the chaos inside him. His anger was intense, but underneath it all was a deeper pain—a heartache that felt like it was swallowing him whole. His wolf was in agony, unable to forget Selena—the warmth of her laughter and the softness of her touch. Even in his anger, a part of him longed for her, making him feel like he was losing a piece of himself with every moment that passed. He sank onto the edge of the bed, gasping for breath. It felt like a dark cloud had settled over him, crushing his spirit. Memories of their special moments together rushed into his mind—the way her eyes sparkled when she laughed, how her hand felt in his. Each memory was like a sha
“I—I’m not betraying my kingdom! I’m trying to save it!” Moora insisted, desperation creeping into her voice. “King Albert has lost his mind. He wants to make Selena the queen of Germany. My mate, Beaker, has always been by his side. He’s given everything for the kingdom, but King Albert never sent my mate as the potential heir, and I won’t let that happen. I’ve told you all the truth. If you are a wise Alpha, you won’t release Selena and King Albert. You can get revenge for your brother’s loss. Selena can pay for betraying you, but my mate will be the king of Germany, and we promise to never attack. We won’t have business with you or your kingdom.”Hudson leaned back in his chair, his expression unyielding. “Hmm, great. Ethan, please escort Princess Moora back to prison,” he ordered, rising from his chair.“Hey, you can’t do that! I told you everything! Why am I going back to prison?” Moora shouted, struggling as Ethan grasped her arms firmly, dragging her toward the door.Hudson ign
Hudson brought Selena to his room in his arms. Selena immediately leaned closer, wrapping her arms around his neck, and pressed her lips against his, freezing him in place. For a moment, he stood there, unresponsive, as she kissed him passionately. Hudson’s hands clenched into fists, fighting the urge to kiss her back. He missed the warmth of her lips, the intimacy they shared. After a few minutes, Selena pulled away, breathless, her eyes searching his. What she saw there sent a thrill through her: a flash of lust and desire. A soft smile graced her lips as she caressed his mouth, leaning in for another kiss. This time Hudson kissed her back. His hand slid behind Selena’s back, prompting her to arch, granting him better access as he tugged the zipper of her red stained wedding dress all the way down. He pulled back just slightly. “ Do you really want this?” he murmured in that deep, melting voice as he noticed the red lace of her lingerie peeking through. Selena nodded her head w
The chill of the morning seeped into Selena’s bones as she slowly opened her eyes, her body feeling heavy and sore. She instinctively reached for the warmth beside her, but her fingers met only the cold emptiness of the bed. She clutched the sheet closer, wrapping it around herself as a shield against the lonely silence that had settled in. Her gaze drifted around the room, her heart pounding with a sliver of hope. But Hudson was nowhere to be found. The place he had lain beside her just hours before was now cold, and the memory of his presence felt like a distant echo. She swallowed hard, trying to steady her racing heart. A thousand thoughts swirled in her mind. Did he left her? She pulled her knees to her chest, feeling the ache in her heart deepen. “Hudson…” she whispered to the empty room, her voice barely above a whisper. Hudson stepped out of the bathroom, his expression cold and unreadable. Without so much as a glance in Selena’s direction, he walked to his closet, pulled
“His heart held love, fierce and deep, Yet wounds ran dark, and trust ran steep.” The guards led Selena down the dim stone corridor, stopping in front of a heavy iron door that led to her father's cell. As she stepped inside, her gaze fell upon Alpha King Albert, seated on the cold stone floor, his hand chained to the wall. He was gazing upward, his eyes fixed on a slice of the bright sky visible through a small, high vent. For a long, tense moment, Selena could only stare, her face unreadable, though there was a storm of emotions within her. She lowered her gaze, feeling shame settle over her. She wanted to speak, to break the silence with words of apology or explanation, but none came. As the sound of the prison door opening echoed in the cell, her father turned to meet her eyes. She braced herself for the anger, the disappointment she thought she'd see in his face—but what she saw shook her. His gaze held only pain, sorrow, and profound sadness. The guards shut the door with
“Bound in chains, her spirit stood tall, Loyalty unshaken, though fate could fall.” The royal cars stood ready to leave, their engines humming softly in the tense air. Inside one car, Betty fidgeted, stealing nervous glances at Ethan. He looked calm, but the tightness in his jaw showed he was worried. Across the lot, Elara sat beside Aldric in another car, her eyes fixed straight ahead, filled with unspoken thoughts. Hudson lingered with his pack, feeling the weight of their loyalty. He exchanged serious goodbyes, their eyes filled with a mix of admiration and sadness. Finally, he turned toward his car, sinking into the plush leather seat. The world outside felt heavy, and unease settled in his stomach. Through the rearview mirror, he spotted Alpha Albert. The powerful figure walked forward, surrounded by guards, chains clinking loudly with each step. The chains were laced with wolfsbane—sharp and cold, meant to weaken him. But what hurt him the most was seeing Selena, barefoot
A crown of thorns, a heart turned to stone.The Kingdom of Euphoria was a place of pure beauty, like a paradise shaped by nature’s finest touches. Rolling green hills stretched far and wide, sprinkled with colorful wildflowers in shades of purple, gold, and red. Clear rivers wound their way through the land, making soft, soothing sounds that blended with the gentle rustle of leaves in the tall, ancient forests.The palace sat proudly on a hill, built from shining white marble with gold details. Its tall towers reached into the sky, decorated with carvings of mythical creatures that seemed almost real in the warm glow of the setting sun. Around the palace were beautiful gardens filled with roses, lilies, and lavender, filling the air with a sweet scent carried by the soft breeze.The kingdom’s villages and towns were filled with life and joy, their cobblestone streets lined with cozy homes painted in warm, inviting colors.As soon as the cars entered the kingdom, Selena felt a wave of
“Surrounded by beasts and blades, her spirit refused to kneel—loyal only to the bond that bound her heart”As soon as Selena entered, the Alpha king’s elite guards surrounded her, their presence a solid, unbreakable wall. Her heartbeat echoed in her ears, each beat steady yet heavy. She kept her steps firm, but she could feel the eyes of the court officials and other nobles fixed on her. Head held high, she let her floral scent drift softly through the room. It was impossible to miss how some of the other alphas’ nostrils flared as they caught it. Wolves were always curious, especially when it came to scent—a personal signature. Yet, openly sniffing someone else’s scent was considered rude. Noticing how the guards shifted to shield her from the others’ gaze, she felt a small flicker of reassurance. Her omega wolf, though restless inside her, settled a little, appreciating the guards’ subtle protection. In this grand room, however, that sense of safety felt out of place. She still had
As the night deepened, Selena sat propped against the rough bark of the tree, her body trembling from the exertion and pain. Lina stayed by her side, her hand steady on Selena’s back, offering quiet support. The younger girl’s face was etched with concern, her brows furrowed in guilt as if she bore the blame for Selena’s suffering.Selena finally pushed herself upright, her breathing shallow but determined. “We can’t stay here,” she whispered, her voice hoarse. “If anyone finds us—”“They won’t,” Lina interrupted softly, her tone resolute. “I’ll get you back to the maid’s quarters. Just lean on me.”Selena hesitated but relented, allowing Lina to loop an arm around her waist. Each step back toward safety felt like an eternity. The palace grounds, so vast and gilded, now felt like a labyrinth of shadows and danger.As they neared the maid’s quarters, Selena’s legs gave out, and she stumbled against Lina. The pain in her abdomen flared again, sharp and unyielding. She gasped, clutching
The courtroom fell into a stunned silence, the weight of Ethan’s words pressing down on everyone present. All eyes turned to Minister Kang, whose face flushed with a mixture of anger and embarrassment. He opened his mouth to retort but seemed to think better of it, sinking back into his seat with a frustrated huff.Alpha King Thomas’s icy gaze swept over the courtroom, commanding absolute attention. “Proceed, Beta Ethan,” he said, his voice calm but carrying the weight of authority.Ethan bowed his head respectfully before continuing. “As I said, Lady Moora is alive and currently being held in the palace dungeons under tight security. She has been thoroughly interrogated and confessed to her crimes. Her goal was not only to harm the Second Princess but to sow chaos and discredit the crown. Her actions were not just a personal vendetta but a calculated move to destabilize Euphoria.”The crowd erupted in whispers once more, the shockwaves of the revelation spreading through the room.Al
Are you out of your mind?” A women hissed, her voice barely above a whisper but sharp enough to cut through the stillness of the night. Her eyes flickered nervously toward the dimly lit corridor, scanning for any signs of patrolling guards. The man before her shifted uneasily, his hood casting shadows over his face. “Didn’t I tell you not to show your face to me again?” she snapped, her words was mix of anger and barely, contained fear “There’s tight security everywhere! Alpha Hudson’s men are actively searching for you. Why would you risk coming here?” “I had no choice,” he replied, with frustration in his voice . “I can’t leave the palace. There’s nowhere safe for me to hide. What if they catch me?” She stepped closer, her fingers curling into fists, her fury barely masked by her calm facade. “That’s not my problem. Do you have any idea what will happen if they find me with you? If Hudson discovers this…” Her voice wavered for a moment before she forced herself to continue.
Hudson's eyes flashed red and in an instant, he lunged for her neck. Selena bared it, her eyes falling shut when she felt Hudson's fangs sinking over the sensitive part of her sensitive gland. From there, they were a mix of tangled limbs with Hudson rubbing his scent everywhere on her body. He bit and sucked on her scent gland until Selena started to smell like him. She found herself spread on top of their discarded clothes. Hudson hiked one of his legs, his cock nudging at her entrance that was growing wet. The alpha panted above her, eyes fixated on the mark on her neck. His voice was laced with a growl and his eyes fully red. "This belongs to me." He entered her with one firm push. Selena arched her back with a loud, drawn-out moan.nHudson hand slid down to cup her ass, squeezing it as her heat pulsed around his length. He began to move with quick, shallow thrusts, avoiding her g-spot purposefully. Hudson growled against her lips. “All mine." With that, he began to thrust m
Selena’s eyelids fluttered slightly, her breathing steady but lighter now. Slowly, she opened her eyes, blinking against the soft light of the room. Hudson’s wolf watched her every movement intently, his golden eyes tracking each flicker of expression on her face. She sat up, her hand instinctively massaging the back of her neck, a faint wince briefly crossing her features, pain visible in her expression.As she tried to rise from the bed, a sharp knock sounded at the door. Hudson’s ears perked, and he immediately let out a warning growl , rumbled from the wolf's throat, vibrating through the room . As his powerful form moving toward Selena possessively. Before she could react, the wolf moved swiftly, gripping the edge of her robe with his teeth. He bit at the loose fabric, tugging it gently .This action startled Selena, her wide eyes darting to the wolf, confusion clear on her face. Following his gaze, she glanced down, It was only then that she realized the fabric of her robe had f
The grand doors to Alpha King Thomas’s chamber burst open with a resounding bang, the echo through the royal hall. Two guards, clad in gleaming armor, fell to their knees just beyond the sheer curtains that veiled the King’s private quarters from the main entrance."Your Majesty!" one of the guards gasped, bowing so low his forehead almost touched the polished marble floor. "The royal healer has reported—" his voice trembled, "the Second Princess has been poisoned!"King Thomas shot to his feet, his towering form radiating an aura of power and authority. His golden eyes, burned with a dark, dangerous fury. The air around him seemed to crackle as his emotions surged."Who dares?" he growled, his voice low and menacing, sending shivers down the spines of all present. A sudden commotion erupted outside Alpha King Thomas’s chamber, the sound of angry voices and the clash of steel breaking the tense silence. Moments later, Alpha Albert, Selena’s father, stormed in, his towering frame bris
Behind her stood the wooden post, its surface rough and scarred from countless punishments delivered in the name of justice. Selena’s shoulders drooped slightly. Suddenly, the sharp sound of metal hitting metal rang out, breaking the tense silence. A sword flashed , slicing through the iron chains that bound Selena. The chains fell to the ground with a loud crash, the noise echoing through the room. Selena flinched, startled a little. Hudson stood off to the side, his expression unreadable but far from calm. His jaw clenched so tightly the muscles ticked, and his hands were fists at his sides. His wolf clawed at the edges of his mind, growling, snapping, and demanding to take over. Don’t let them hurt mate! You can’t let this happen! The pack gathered around, whispering amongst themselves, their faces a mixture of pity, curiosity, and quiet satisfaction. They knew the punishment was harsh, but no one dared to question the Alpha kings decree—or so they believed. The whip hung
Authors Pov The rustling of dried leaves and the mournful wail of the cold strong wind signaled the chill of an approaching storm. Dark clouds loomed low in the sky, casting everything into shadow. Yet, Selena stood in the middle of it all, still and unshaken, like a statue carved from stone. Her face was blank, showing no emotion, but her glassy, distant eyes told a different story. They stared past the crowd, as if she wasn’t really there anymore. Her hair flowed loosely, a few strands falling forward to partially cover her face. Her lips, dry and slightly cracked, were pressed into a thin, silent line, making no sound or plea. Her hands were tied tightly in an iron grip, forcing her into submission. She was made to kneel on the cold, hard ground, prepared to accept her punishment. Behind her stood the wooden post, its surface rough and scarred from countless punishments delivered in the name of justice. Selena’s shoulders drooped slightly. Suddenly, the sharp sound of metal
