“Is the team ready?” I asked, my voice calm but cold as I walked out onto the clearing behind the mansion, where a dozen vampires were waiting—geared, silent, focused.“Yes, they are,” Nerissa replied smoothly, her crimson eyes narrowing in the moonlight. “I hope you bring something useful back this time,” she added, her tone clipped with disdain before turning on her heels and striding away, her cloak trailing behind like spilled ink.I didn’t reply to her jab. Instead, I chuckled under my breath and turned to face the group. “Let’s move.”We moved fast—silent shadows through the forest. The night was thick, wrapped in the hush before a storm. Leaves whispered beneath our boots, the trees parting only slightly as we passed. We didn’t speak. We didn’t need to.This wasn’t just a hunt. It was a test.Last time, I’d brought back nothing but rogue werewolves—scraps, as Nerissa called them. This time, I was going to give her what she truly wanted: chaos. Blood. Fear. Proof that I belonged

The room was thick with tension, the air heavy with anticipation as I sat in Lucas’s office, surrounded by maps, charts, and paperwork. A large map of the territories lay spread across the desk, marked in red and black ink, showing border patrol routes, supply chains, and possible evacuation points. It was all real now. This wasn’t just about finding Xavier anymore. It was war. And we had to be ready.Lucas sat across from me, flipping through a checklist of food supplies and medical inventory. Saya paced near the window, her brows furrowed in deep concentration as she noted down training schedules. The atmosphere buzzed with urgency, the kind that doesn’t need to be spoken aloud. We had elders and children to protect, mothers with newborns to shelter, and a whole generation of young wolves who’d never seen a battlefield before.“We need to start training the women for self-defense. We can’t afford to rely on just the warriors,” Saya said, finally breaking the silence.“I agree,” Luca

“I need to see him.” I held Lucas’s arm, grabbing his attention.“No Ari. It’s too dangerous. I can’t let you go there.”“No, I need to see him. This can’t be Xavbier. There might be a mistake. He might be coerced to do something like this.” I tried to knock some sense into Lucas.“Ari, I can promise you that I won’t kill him. But if he lays his hands on my pack, I can’t stop myself from hurting him.” I took a step back instinctively. Lucas sensed the hurt in my eyes and he stepped forward to convince me when he was called back.“I promise not to kill him. I shall get him for you and you can talk to him. But you are not stepping out of this room at any cost.” Before I could protest, Lucas mindlinked two guards and they were at my doorstep, ready to guard me. “I am hungry. I need to go to the kitchen.” I spoke and they looked at each other. I didn’t know if they were contemplating their decision to let me eat or mindlinking Lucas, but I didn't care. I walked to the kitchen with them i

I woke up with a blissful smile on my face. Why would I not? After all, it's my birthday today. I turn 18 today and I finally get to choose my mate. Throwing off the covers, I jumped out of the bed and quickly ran into the washroom to get ready. Pulling out a white sweater and a white skirt, I wore it with my white stockings. Wearing my pink shoes to fit my outfit, I quickly applied my lipgloss and blush. Grabbing my bag, I rushed out of my room and ran down the stairs to meet my family who were waiting at the dining hall. My mom hugged me on seeing me and wished me.“Happy Birthday Ariana.” My dad wished me looking up from his plate. He is not a big hugger or even a man who shows his emotions.“Happy Birthday dear.” This was my mother. I put my bag on the floor and sat on the stool at the kitchen counter, beside my brother.“Happy Birthday Ariana.” This was my brother.“Thank you Augustus.” I gave him a smile which he didn’t return. But nothing could kill my mood today.“Are you exci

Four Years laterA knock sounded on the door.“Xav! Who is it?” I yelled from the kitchen.“Coming.” He yelled back from the stairs and ran to open the door.I could hear some muffled dialogue but apart from that I couldn’t make out who it was. Oh, right. It should be Mrs. Paul, she said she wanted some recipes from me and she would visit us in the afternoon.Wiping my hands on the kitchen towel, I walked towards the door. “Is it Mrs. Pau—”Words got stuck in my throat.It was him.Lucas Klein in flesh, at my doorstep.“What the hell are you doing here?” I barked and Xavier held me back before I could kill him.“I–I just wanted to talk to you.”Wow, Lucas Klein and stuttering. I never thought that I would get to see the day where I would see the mighty and proud Alpha stuttering. Hell, I didn’t even think that he would want to see me after all that he said and did to me. “Then talk. Why are you here?” I folded my hands in front of my chest and his gaze fell onto my boobs.“Eyes up he

Walking towards him, I wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed him. He immediately wrapped his hands around my waist and pulled me closer, deepening the kiss. Pulling apart I rested my head against his and whispered. “I love you.”“I love you too.” He kissed my forehead and I smiled.“Sometimes, you cannot undo certain things. And one of those is betrayal. I lost something very precious to me when I met him and I can never ever get it back. And with you I found pieces of me that I didn’t even know existed. I am not talking about choosing but it’s always you for me.” He smiled and hugged me tightly and I hugged him back discreetly wiping my tears. “Thank you for telling me that. That’s the sweetest thing ever.” He kissed me all over my face, making me giggle at the wet, ticklish feeling.I escaped his grip and went back to the kitchen.Xavier followed me and hugged me from behind, kissing me on my neck. He bit my skin there and I hissed. “Don’t leave a hickey. I can’t cover it in s

I woke up to someone raining kisses on me. I tried to shield my face and sleep but I couldn’t. He was relentless. Sighing, I opened my eyes and there he was. Straddling me but without touching me. I pouted seeing him so energetic and active while I felt tired and sleepy.He kissed my pout and I pushed him away playfully.“I am sleepy. Let me sleep.”“Come on baby, you must be hungry. Let’s get you some food and then come back here.” I ignored his comment and pulled the comforter over and closed my eyes.“Are you tired?” I nodded without opening my eyes. “I am sorry for being so harsh last night.”I opened my eyes and looked at him. He was feeling bad and demeaning himself in his head.Caressing his face I spoke. “I loved what we did yesterday, but it’s probably this pregnancy that’s making me so tired and lazy.” He leaned into my touch and I smiled at his act of his.“Sleep for a little while. I shall grab our breakfasts and be back.” He kissed my forehead and pulled the comforter up

“Can I come in?” He asked and I stepped aside from the doorway and let him in. “I got these for you. I didn’t know what flowers you like but I hope you like Tulips.”“Now just because you got me something, I must like it?” I snapped back, feeling a sense of frustration building up.“No. I am sorry, that’s not what I meant. I can take them back if you—”“No, it's fine.” Xavier cut him off and I glared at him. He glared back at me and I knew what he meant. He was asking me to remain composed. He picked the bouquet and walked to the kitchen to place them in a jug of water. I sat on the couch and he sat in front of me. Xavier came back with a bottle of water for me and kissed my head. Sitting beside me on the armrest, he wrapped his arm around me and I leaned into him. Lucas was clearly uncomfortable with the way he was fidgeting in his place seeing us. He tried to look here and there to hide his discomfort but he was doing a poor job at it.“I want to let you know that we are coming to C

I had called for an All-Alpha meeting. Enough was enough now. Taking the help of the Elders, technically threatening them to interfere and help us out of this, we were all seated in the conference room adjacent to my office.The Alphas had also been given accommodation, if the circumstances demanded. Ariana was beside me, wearing a loose gown to hide her pregnancy and avoid any unnecessary questions.“Gentleman, we know that the threat from the Vampires has reduced for the past few months. Like they expected us, we have let our guards down and gone back to normalcy.” My voice boomed in the room. “We need to gear up now before it’s too late. There is going to be a war. A deadly one at that. We need to be prepared for that.” The other alphas looked at each other, murmuring in confusion.“Why now? And what is this war for? And since the threats have been neutralised, why are we unnecessarily doing this?” Alpha Raiden, from the Moon Beam pack asked. This is why I needed the Elders. The w

Sleep didn’t come easy that night for me. I was lost,tired and exhausted. I felt my tears clogging my eyes and my chest constricting again. I felt helpless all over again. All these days of training, trying to be strong for all of us, trying my best to be optimistic.But everything came crashing down on me. I felt too burdened by everything. Nothing ever felt right again. I didn’t know if it ever would.I sat up on the bed and leaned against the headboard. I tried the breathing exercises we were taught in our prenatal classes. I was attending a few between everything to look after myself and destress my body.I opened my eyes and my gaze fell on the piece of fabric that Lucas had brought back with him. Tears welled up in my eyes and I couldn’t stop them this time. I walked

I sat at the dining table, my appetite long lost. Aurora was playing on the floor, with the other pups. Some kids had found a special liking towards her and decided to make her their friend. I smiled, looking at them, sharing toys and food, enjoying this phase without a care in the world.My stomach stirred, uneasily and I rubbed my belly. My son kicked me hard, as if he was complaining about forgetting about him. “Don’t worry baby, Mamma didn’t forget you.” I whispered to my stomach.In spite of the cheery mood set up in the pack house, there is a nagging feeling of dread. Something is wrong. Something isn’t right.I sighed, the smell of pancakes making me forget everything momentarily. I gulped down the food as Saya prepared it for me, smiling as she saw me eat well. I had difficulty eating food, and if I ate, I had difficulty stomaching it down. But today seems to be different. I could eat as well as keep it down. Maybe my son was similar to his mom, who loved pancakes more than cer

The nights here weren’t silent. They were haunted. Not with ghosts, no. I would have preferred ghosts. These walls were drenched in screams, soaked in betrayal, and painted with the stench of blood. No matter how hard I tried to shut it out, the whispers found me. But when I closed my eyes, she was there.Ari.Not the one they talked about here. Not the ‘whore’ I’d accused her of being to keep up my pretense. No. The real one. My Ariana. My girl who looked like spring and smelled like home. The one who held my hand and promised to stay even when the world broke me. The one who brought Aurora into this world and made me a father.I missed them. My soul physically ached from the emptiness they left behind. Sometimes I wondered if they missed me too, or if I’d become a passing thought in their new life. Was Aurora calling someone else “dada”? Was Ari smiling again? Was she eating properly, sleeping enough, laughing like she used to?My chest tightened.I remembered the first time I watche

I felt her eyes on me. They always have been. And I knew that her intentions weren’t pure.Sitting in the court, listening to the plans of taking down the werewolves, starting with the Blood Bound pack. The pack ruled by Lucas. Pack where Ariana was born into. There was a sacrifice. A sacrifice that made the vampires invincible. Invincible from their arch enemies the werewolves and get unlimited access to their elixir–human blood. I sat on the chair assigned to me, at the coven, where Esteben sat. The king of vampires.He looked ugly. The pale face that was almost white, from drinking so much blood and remaining hidden in the dark. He was a great king but a poor ruler. He knew the art of influencing people well, but rarely took a step, dipping his hands in dirt. He stood at the end, placing his people in front of him as a s

They came just before dawn.I was asleep when the alarms went off. At first, it felt like a dream. A strange buzz, loud but distant, like a warning that never truly reached the ears. But then I woke up with a strange pressure in my chest—a mother’s instinct or maybe Luna's bond with her people. Either way, something wasn’t right.By the time I got Aurora dressed and made my way down the stairs, Saya had already rushed in, eyes wide. “There was a breach,” she told me breathlessly. “A group of vampires tried to get through the north perimeter.”My blood ran cold.We had increased security after the last attack. Warriors rotated in shifts. No one got in or out without passing three checkpoints. So how did this group manage to get so
