CHAPTER 83: Ground Zero

Maverick’s POV:

Everything was different here.

Like a whole new world.

We stood at the edge of Lunaria as the city of Humans rose like a crown of steel and glass against the twilight sky, a contrast between our natured world and their technological advancement. This place was called SOLHAVEN, the boundary where wild and untamed land of werewolves met the order and chaos of humanity.

Towering skyscrapers filled the place, stretching towards the heavens. Massive holographic billboards loomed above, projecting images of human achievement: Their advanced AI, medicine, and exploration beyond the stars.

This place; The Solhaven, was humanity's pride, a testament to their ingenuity and ambition.

I glanced back at my companions as we crossed into the bustling metropolis. Minister Blackthorn, ever composed, adjusted his black cloak against his body, blending seamlessly with the human attire, his sharp gaze scanning for potential threats.

Natalie was beside him, he

    CHAPTER 84: Balance Over Dominance Alpha Maverick’s POV: The doors to the elevator opened, revealing a sterile pristine corridor bathed in white light. The walls seemed to shimmer faintly under the floor of the overhead panels, and as we walked in, the smell of something hit me instantly—sharp, synthetic, and overwhelmingly potent. I scrunched up my nose in disgust, my nostrils flaring as I fought the urge to throw up. “Apologies for the smell,” Dr. Monroe said without turning, his voice tinged with amusement. Despite his walking cane that supported his old stature, he moved with a deliberate gait, his cane clicking sharply against the polished floor. “This is my private lab. I suppose you could call it a guilty pleasure of mine. Had I gotten a head start I’d be hosting werewolves In this place, I would have toned it down.”I nodded in response, trying to get used to the foreign chemical smell. I felt Natalie, Minister Blackthorn, and Daemon walking behind me, with Daemon occasio

    CHAPTER 85: Rhella FireHeart Pyra’s POV: It’s been a week since Beta Thane’s unexpected visit to the mansion, and might I say I have been treading carefully ever since his visit. I still hadn’t written that letter to the hospital to officially take a leave due to my condition. Well, courtesy to Veronica who refused my application, insisting she’d cover my shifts, claiming it was better to keep any attention away from me. I agree, she has helped me this far, and I wouldn’t have even gotten to where I am currently without her. She is my angel. I sat on the chair at the kitchen table, cradling a warm cup of tea, specifically brewed by Madraya who had sworn it was the best traditional medicine to take, insisting it was good for my babies’ health. “Eww, Taste like poop,” I grimaced, hating the fact I agreed to her persuasion. Madraya was an odd soul—her presence in the mansion was barely noticeable, rarely leaving her room and only venturing out at night for fear of being

Why didn’t you report yourself to the main pack house in my office?”“And why would I do that?” Madraya spat, her voice like a whip, slicing through the heavy silence. Her gaze was sharp, daring Luna Verona to contradict her. “What did I ever do to warrant reporting myself? No Verona. You’re the one who is and has always been wrong, Verona. None but you.”The tension in the room felt like a storm waiting to break. Luna Verona’s gaze burned with icy intensity, but Madraya stood her ground, her thin frame somehow commanding a presence as strong as Luna's.“You have been so focused on no one sitting on the Crimson throne except your mate that you have neglected what

    CHAPTER 87: A Ploy?Maverick’s POVThe atmosphere in the penthouse was suffocating, thick with unspoken doubts and lingering questions despite no words popping from anyone’s mouth. We arrived at the penthouse, one reserved and bought by my father years ago in case I was ever to venture into this part of the realm. We sat around the kitchen table, the space once a sanctuary now filled with tension.Minister Blackthorn sipped his coffee in silence, Natalie leaned back in her chair with her arms crossed, and Daemon stared at the wall as though it held the answers we all sought.I could practically see the wheels turning in everyone’s head. I couldn’t take the suffocating silence any longer. “Why?” I asked, my voice breaking through the stillness like a crack of thunder. Everyone looked up at me, their questioning gaze even more confused by my questions. “Why what, Alpha?” Minister Blackthorn asked. “Why would someone migrate from Lunaria into the human world and think of generating t

The room was silent as everyone stared nervously at each other. I turned away from Veronica when our eyes met but Madraya was the one to spoil my silent escape. “And Pyra, is there anything you would like to tell Veronica?”Shit. “What’s going on?” Veronica asked, stepping closer into the room. She must have realized something was off as Luna wasn’t even angry that the seer who had been running from her was in her home. Luna t

    CHAPTER 89: Alpha Rhella Pyra’s POVI lay on the bed, staring at the cemented ceiling of the hospital penthouse. My thoughts swirled in a storm, pulling me back to the chaos and events of today. The words of Madraya, the shocked and piercing gaze of Luna Verona’s, the thunder in her voice when she demanded Madraya to stop talking rubbish, Veronica’s appearance, and trembling confession—it all played on repeat in my mind.“What just happened?” I whispered to myself, still staring upwards. Everything was moving just too fast for me to keep track of. No matter how hard I tried to understand, I couldn’t make sense of it. Everything felt too surreal, too overwhelming.They had moved me to a separate room, away from the shared space with Luna Verona. I knew it wasn’t just for my comfort. I couldn’t bear her presence any longer—the way her eyes seemed to strip me of every defense, every ounce of sanity I had.How does she feel to know her daughter is alive? I just couldn’t imagine.

Daemon sat in one of the chairs around the dining table, his fingers tapping rhythmically on his laptop keys, Natalie sat by the corner, busy with her phone. And Minister Blackthorn, he was somewhere in the house. “Have you seen anything yet?” I asked, stopping mid-step.He paused, his sharp eyes flicking to mine. “Nothing yet, Alpha.”I exhaled deeply, glancing over at Natalie. Despite the calm facade she excludes, I knew she was still seething, her anger simmering just beneath the surface. “Natalie,” I began, my voice softer than usual. “I just wanted to thank you for all of this—for putting aside our differences and focusing on what matters.”Her gaze snapped up, her expression unreadable. “I will do anything to protect my pack, Maverick,” she said evenly, though her words carried a razor’s edge. “Even if the Alph

    CHAPTER 91: Extraction Point Third person’s POVThe smell of smoke lingered in the air. The sharp, icy wind howling across the mountaintop, sweeping almost gracefully past a man as he stood on the rocky ledge of the high mountain. His long, dark hair, streaked with fiery red, danced in the gusts of wind, a striking contrast to his cold, stoic demeanour as he watched the chaos below. The pack’s territory; the Fangborn pack, once a bastion of unity and peace, was now burnt with the orange glow of battle. Screams of anguish mixed with the howls of werewolves, both from his gangs and the Fangborn resistance, their shadows darting through the blood-stained earth.Caspien’s slight crimson eyes scanned the scene below him. His face, devoid of emotion, though there was tension shimmering beneath the surface of such a heartless man. His voice was a whisper against the gush of wind, soft even, but commanding. “Just give him up already. I came here for one thing and one thing only: to take ba

I rushed into Pyra's penthouse of FireHeart, hoping I wasn’t too late. But when I got to the penthouse, Rhaella wasn’t there. “No, no, no.” I turned away, rushing to the halls of the FireHeart pack, shouting to the nearby pack members. “Where’s the Alpha? Where’s my mate?”The pack member opened her mouth to answer, but no sound came. Her eyes widened—fixed on something behind me. I turned, my heart thudding.Luna Verona stood at the top of the staircase, her long blood-red cloak trailing behind her like a storm cloud. Her expression was unreadable, but her eyes—those fierce dark eyes—held something deeper. One I couldn’t decipher. “Where is she?” I demanded before she could even speak. “Where are the kids?”She descended slowly, deliberately, her heeled boots echoing off the stone floor like a countdown to war. “The kids are fine

    CHAPTER 178: DUNCAN ALL ALONGPyra’s POV: It all made sense now. Everything, every piece—like shattered glassware slowly forming a whole again.How didn’t I see this?The lies. The secrecy. The way Steven had always been adamant in knowing everything. The way Steven—no, Caspian—always seemed he was holding back a part of himself like he didn’t belong… because he didn’t. He never did. Not here. Not with us.It all made sense why he was a nervous wreck after I told him he must come with me to the RedClaw pack. “You never know what is around you, Alpha Rhaella. You can sit on your throne, thinking all is safe but oblivious that the enemy can be near.” I recalled one of the strange conversations he had with me. At that moment, it didn’t make sense. I didn’t understand then. But now, I see it all. There was an enemy close by, a wolf wearing sheep’s clothing. And he had always been near. Always been by my side. Always been under my roof and I stupidly trusted this enemy. They had alw

    CHAPTER 177: Into An AmbushPyra’s POV: My boots struck the earth. Even the dust couldn’t escape my wrath. Dust kicked up behind me in silent protest, but I didn’t stop. I didn’t flinch. I didn’t even blink. My mind was focused on getting to one place and they shall feel my wrath. The bodysuit I wore molded my frame like a second skin. Sleek and dull red. The material shimmered faintly under the dimming light—thick enough to shield me in combat, yet light enough to move without restriction. It was the mark of the crimson Alphas. An armor they wore in times of battles. One that designates fear, not for any weapon, but the fire in our blood. The bodysuit clung to my form like armor, laced with leather straps and reinforced at the joints for agility and stealth. The style was ancient—Myrrakai, they call it, just like in the legends told of my ancestors centuries ago. No one has worn it for centuries, until me. A silver blade was strapped across my back, its hilt still warm from my gr

    CHAPTER 176: A Name To The Gray EyesMaverick’s POV:I walked into my mother’s chamber, still feeling the remnant of her perfume lingering in the air. It was faint now, almost to the point of disappearance. Almost like a fading memory, but unmistakably hers—warm lavender and crushed rose petals. The scent clung to the silk sheet, the walls, the drapes… as if the room itself was infused entirely by her and refused to forget her. My chest tightened.The more I thought about it, the more I realized that she was truly gone. Forever. Yet, everything in here screamed her presence. My heart screamed for her. I stared at everything in the chamber. Her crystal paintbrush she cherished so much, her favorite painting bearing an image of her, me… and my father. Everything now stayed untouched, preserved like relics of a time I’d do anything to return to. I hated this feeling. I stood, watching everything like it was the first time I saw them before finally, I walked deeper into the room and sa

    CHAPTER 175 : Commanders Of Stealth Pyra’s POV:The atmosphere was gloomy, and every breath I took felt heavy with grief.No one spoke. No one dared to. The entire pack was in peril, everyone felt the sorrow of loss. Even the air dared not disturb the thick silence that enveloped the whole place. All around me, faces were etched with pain—eyes red from the constant crying, lips trembling with the weight of the looming silence. Even the strongest among us were brought low by the tragedy that had befallen the pack.My two sons stayed beside me, watching the event unfold. I dared not allow them a few feet away from me after what happened to Zerek. Never. Everything was happening too fast. Too fast for me to control. It was like everywhere I turned, danger, pain, and loss filled there already. I should be the anchor to fix everything happening in these packs, but how could I when I was most broken and affected?It hurts to be back here at Fangborn Pack. I thought I was ready to face my

I opened my eyes, and the small light of the morning filtered into my eyes from the window.I blinked against the sting, groaning softly as I stirred from sleep. It was still too early in the morning but I was awake, energized. My body felt heavy, like it wanted more sleep—even though I knew I overslept. I turned on my side, dragging a hand over my face to wipe off the remnants of the strange unease clinging to me. Something felt… off.I didn’t know how to explain it as I stared at the ceiling but I felt that today wasn’t just going to be a normal day. I sat up slowly, rubbing my temples. The scent of the morning breeze drifted in, mixed with the faint perfume of pine from the woods beyond. My throat itched with thirst and I reached for the bottle of water beside my bed only to feel something crisp. I frowned, turning to see a letter sitting right there. What the hell?I turned on the ligh

    CHAPTER 173: An Empty CradlePyra’s POV:Cold. That was all I could feel. It slipped into my bones, tearing at me from the inside. I couldn’t move, barely able to breathe except for the cold moisture that was so dense that it felt like I was breathing in water. I took another painful breath in, choking on it immediately. My choking seemed to snap me out of whatever I was in because one moment I could feel my eyes closed permanently shut, and air as thick and dense as liquid entering my lungs, and the next moment, I stood before a forest.The trees towered over all, animals ran into their hiding spots as if running from something dangerous. The branches of the towering trees crept like hands, promising a destructive hug but even with that, nothing could hide what hung prominently in the sky, casting red lights that bathed the ground. The moon. It was bleeding a bright crimson red. I veered around, searching all around me. As strange as this place was, it was familiar. I didn’t kno

    CHAPTER 172: Revenge Served With A Syringe Third person’s POV:The darkness was persistent, not a ray of moonlight sipped through. The lands of Lunaria were bathed in total darkness. Not even the stars dared to blink. The once lively whispers of the wind had grown still, and even the wolves, proud guardians of the night, were silent—watching, waiting.And the lands of the FireHeart pack were not immune to this. Deep in the darkness, a pair of dark eyes blinked, making his way straight into the path where a lady waited patiently for him. He stopped before her, their eyes locked into each other, no words being spoken. After what felt like forever, Alpha Rhaella shifted, giving access to Alpha Maverick into her penthouse. Immediately he was in, she shut the door. “I’ve been waiting for this,” Maverick said, impatiently going to hold Rhaella’s hand, his body almost gluing to hers. Rhaella didn’t respond with words—she didn’t need to. The way her breath hitched, the way her fingers t

Banners of crimson and gold fluttered in the wind coming from the windows, strung from every pillar in the heart of the territory. In their celebratory halls, Soft Music drifted through the air, a cheerful tune that tried—desperately—to fill the silence that hung over the pack like a thick fog.A performance for the Alpha and his newly appointed Ministers who sat watching from their raised platform. The scent of roasted meat and sweet wine mingled with the heavier stench of anxiety. Eyes darted nervously. Voices were hushed. It was meant to be a wedding, after all.Natalie’s wedding.A dream she had always sought. Achieving what she always wanted; to be Luna. But not to the Alpha she wanted. She is, after all, now the bride to Alpha of the RedClaw pack. Natalie sat at the center of the highly perched table, different meals present and she was cloaked in white silk that shimmered lik
