ElaineTrevor and I were ready for bed. It was almost 10 p.m., and the Silver Rose Pack had settled in for the night. Outside, the only sounds were the distant hoots of owls and the soft chirping of crickets.The palace was far from our apartment, but Alpha Earl had put effort into making it as cozy as possible.“I remember the cabin I went to when we had a fight,” Trevor suddenly said. “It looks similar to this. Nature is just outside the window, and it’s quiet.”I didn’t fully catch what he said because my mind was drifting away. The conversation we had with Alpha Earl still lingered. I thought about the people of Wolfsilver. Everything stirred up inside me.“Elaine?” Trevor’s voice broke through my thoughts. “Are you okay?”I barely registered his concern at first because I was still lost in my own worries.“What was that?” I murmured, blinking. “Say that again, Trevor.”Trevor looked at me for a moment, then repeated himself. “I said this place reminds me of the cabin I went to wh
ElaineA warm breeze drifted into my room, carrying the fresh scent of morning. A beam of sunlight streamed through the window and gently touched my skin. The cheerful chirping of birds filled the air as I slowly opened my eyes.“Good morning, honey,” I murmured. I stretched my arms and let out a big yawn.Still half-asleep, I turned over and reached for Trevor. My fingers searched for the warmth of his body, but all they found was the blanket. My arm stretched farther, tracing the bed to its edge. And yet, Trevor wasn’t beside me.I sat up and blinked away the drowsiness as I looked around. The bed was empty. Trevor was nowhere to be seen.“Honey?” I called out, feeling a slight pang of panic. But then, as my mind fully woke up, I remembered where we were.I took a deep breath and grounded myself. We’re still in the Silver Rose Pack. He must be out somewhere.With that thought, I decided to tidy up the bed. I folded the blankets and arranged the pillows. Once everything was in order
ElaineHis eyes locked onto mine. It looked like he was searching for something deep. It felt like he could see something inside me, something that even I didn’t know about. And though all of these, he still didn’t let go of my arm.“Silvermare…” he whispered again.He stepped closer. His wrinkled eyes shone with surprise and excitement. His grip was firm but not painful, as if he had found something precious.I didn’t know what to say. The way he looked at me felt strange, almost as if he knew me from long ago. His gaze was full of wonder, like a child seeing something magical for the first time.“Yes…” His voice trembled, but his words were sure. “I am certain now… You are a Silvermare.”Then, suddenly, he shouted—“A SILVERMARE!”His voice was loud and full of emotion. The sound echoed across the training ground.The word spilled from his lips repeatedly, almost like a chant. His loud declaration caught the attention of the warriors nearby. One by one, they turned toward us. Their
ElaineWhen I turned my gaze back to the old man, he seemed lost in his own world and stared off into the distance.“Please take Alpha Eddie back to the packhouse,” Warrior Ken ordered.One of the warriors stepped forward and carefully assisted the former Alpha. But just a few steps away, he suddenly froze and turned to look at me again. This time, I offered him a small smile.The old man showed no reaction. Without another word, he continued on his way.His behavior didn’t bother me much. It wasn’t fear that I felt. Rather, just surprise. His outburst had caught me off guard, and I hadn’t known how to react. He had grabbed my arm so suddenly but it hadn’t been anything to be wary of.I turned to Trevor and explained everything. His concern faded as he listened.“I see… Yeah, Warrior Ken is probably right,” Trevor said thoughtfully. “Maybe he was reminded of someone from his past when he saw you.”Warrior Ken then turned to address the gathered warriors.“All right, guys! Training is
TristanAlpha Earl and I sat at his table inside the packhouse, enjoying a morning tea served by his attendants. The tea was freshly picked from their garden. Its aroma perfectly suited for morning meetings like this.At the very least, a cup of tea helped lighten the weight of our problems. Somehow, we could discuss the greatest conflict facing Wolfsilver over a simple drink.“So, Alpha Tristan… what’s your next move?” Alpha Earl asked, taking a sip from his cup.I held my own cup, the heat of the fresh tea rising to my nose as I took a careful sip. Jared sat with us as well. After all, he was the only warrior I could truly rely on from my pack.“I only have one thing in mind: to train and grow stronger,” I said firmly. “I can’t reclaim my throne with my current strength. That’s why I wish to train here, under your guidance.”My grip on the cup tightened, my hands shaking slightly as the mere thought of Travis filled me with rage.“I will beat him. I will send Travis back to where he
TristanI thought of Alpha Earl as a man of composure. But today, I saw something different. He wasn’t just an Alpha of the beautiful Silver Rose Pack. He was also a loving and patient son to his aging father. “Son, you have to believe me. I saw a Silvermare, and a very beautiful one!” The room fell silent. Alpha Earl’s hand never left his father’s shoulder. I could see the strain behind his composed facade. The way his jaw clenched just slightly was an indicator that he was holding back a wave of emotion inside of him. And yet, he didn’t scold his father or dismiss his ramblings. Instead, he gently patted his arm and reassured him. “I understand, Father. We’ll talk about this later. It’s time for your meal.” Alpha Earl looked over to the warrior standing by the door. “Take Alpha Eddie to his room. Tell the omegas to bring his favorite food.”The warrior nodded and moved to escort the old Alpha out. Alpha Eddie resisted at first and was still muttering about Silvermares and powerf
TristanAlpha Earl pointed to some text on the page.“Here, read this,” he said as he slid the book toward me.I took it cautiously. My eyes landed on the bold, ancient script and started reading.“Silvermares have enhanced skills not comparable to a regular spirit wolf. Their power goes beyond anyone’s wild imagination.”Shock coursed through me, and I couldn’t tear my gaze away from the next paragraph. Jared leaned closer and read it aloud.“But this gift is only possible to possess if the wielder learns how to navigate it.”He turned his eyes toward Alpha Earl. His face was a mixture of confusion and disbelief. Alpha Earl simply nodded, as if they shared some unspoken understanding. I felt a flicker of frustration and glanced between the two of them.I was left in my own thoughts and struggled to make sense of it all. Elaine? A Silvermare? It didn’t add up. As far as I knew, Elaine was wolfless. She was just an ordinary she-wolf who worked as a secretary. Nothing about her hinted a
ElaineTrevor handed me a warm cup of herbal tea.“One of the Omegas gave me this. It’s a fresh tea they make from scratch.” He took a sip and smiled. “Do you like it?”I carefully pressed my lips to the lid of the cup, letting the warm tea flow into my mouth. The taste was completely different from what we had in the city. It tasteed so authentic and earthy.“Wow! I’m amazed at how they make things from scratch.” I took another sip, and Trevor’s smile grew wider.“I’m glad you’re really not affected by what happened earlier,” he said suddenly.So, Trevor was still worried about Alpha Eddie.“Of course not,” I assured him. “Alpha Eddie is sick, and he didn’t cause any harm. Maybe he was just overwhelmed by the emotions that seeing me brought back.”“Maybe.” Trevor refilled his cup.“It’s no big deal, honey,” I told him again.The old man’s face crossed my mind, and I suddenly felt comfortable enough to ask Trevor a question that had been lingering in my thoughts.“If my dad were here,
ElaineAt last, after so many crazy things had happened in our lives, the scene I had always dreamed of day and night was finally happening right before my eyes.I stood at the end of the aisle wearing the most elegant white wedding dress full of sparkling stones in it. Everyone stood up on their chairs as I made my entrance.Nancy, whom I never thought would be a forever friend, was standing with her cute dress. She suited the role of the maid of honor. She deserved to be part of the happiest day of my life. After the things we’d been through, I wanted her to witness this joyous moment. Along with Mr. Smith and his wife, who were holding my arms lovingly, walking me down the aisle.“You look lovely,” he whispered and smiled.“Trevor is such a lucky guy. I wish you the best,” Mrs. Smith said.“Thank you,” I uttered. Even if the Moon Goddess hadn’t let me experience growing up with my parents, I was happy she had sent them just in time in my life and served as my second parents.A fami
ElaineThe usual smiles of the people of Wolfsilver were back. Slowly, everything turned to the way it should be.I walked around checking the aftermath of the war. The pack was in ruins. The damage was beyond imagination. A lot of families lost their homes. Most of the things that built Wolfsilver were lost during the war. But the good thing is, the people’s faces lit up. They were full of life and joy after the defeat of Travis. There’s no more terror in their hearts. Fear was replaced with joy. The nightmare was finally over. And along with everyone, we all could start again.I was on my way to the infirmary. I brought some fruits and snacks to hand over to the warriors who risked their lives for our cause. The wounded warriors welcomed me with smiles.Most of them were recovering greatly. Of course, we suffered from casualties too. It couldn’t be avoided. But thanks to the prosperity of this great pack, everyone’s needs were given.I was on my way to visit my friends to the infirm
ElaineEverything happened so fast.Rogues rushed at us. They were hungry for our blood. The wolves fighting on our side howled and a few seconds later, the first drop of blood spilled the ground. I barely ducked as a rogue’s claws swiped at my face. Good thing Jared was at my side in a second and knocked the attacker away."Stay close!" Jared shouted.I gripped my dagger tighter while my hands were shaking. I wasn't a strong fighter like Jared or Elsa. But I had to help somehow.Elsa fought like a hurricane. Her blades were covered in blood and yet i didn’t see her slow down for even a second. Mike, Ruther and the rest of the warriors from Silver Rose Pack moved as if they take war for breakfast.Tristan was fighting Travis up ahead. The two of them clashed. Travis was bigger and stronger. But Tristan was faster. He dodged Travis' attacks and hit him with quick, sharp blows."You’re getting slow, Travis!" Tristan shouted with a bloody smile."You’ll die slow!" Travis growled back a
Elaine“What the hell are you doing here?” I shouted, the sight of her face after all this time lighting a fire inside me.All the hardships she caused came crashing back into my mind. My blood boiled. Heat rose in my chest. The anger I felt begged me to lash out. I clenched my fists. I was ready to attack her anytime.Jared gently grabbed my arm and shook his head.I understood immediately. If I lost control now, I could ruin everything. And worse, it could lead us straight into unnecessary bloodshed.Of course, I wouldn’t want that. I forced myself to stay still. But I didn't take my eyes off Megan. I tried to be calm, but seeing her smug face was making it hard to do so. She noticed. Of course, she did. Like before, she relished seeing me powerless and furious. That evil smirk of hers was enough to make me want to rip it off her face.Megan grabbed Travis’s face suddenly and kissed him. Passionately. Shamelessly. Right in front of everyone. The kiss dragged on for a whole painful
ElaineWe set foot outside the Silver Rose Pack. It had been a long time since we ventured beyond the safety of our haven. Today, we would take back what was ours. With the strength of our newly forged alliances, we would throw Travis out of Wolfsilver."Keep your pace! We're almost at the pack borders!" Tristan shouted to everyone.The army was led by Tristan and Elsa, running at the frontline, ready to take down anything that blocked our way. Jared stayed close beside Tristan, while Ruther and Mike supported Elsa on the flanks."You better be alive, Trevor. We’re on our way," Tristan said suddenly.His concern tightened something inside my chest. I couldn't help but ache for Trevor, imagining what hardships he might be enduring at the hands of Travis.My mind locked onto our mission. The battle ahead would test us all. But I'd face anything—anything—just to hold the love of my life again."Hang on a little more, Trevor," I whispered into the wind, praying somehow the words would rea
TristanThat night, Elsa and the others decided we would leave early in the morning. Some of the warriors in the army were fired up, eager to avenge Alpha Earl. I overheard them talking about how it had been a long time since they felt their blood burn with this much passion. It lifted my spirits to know morale was strong. It would definitely help us win the war.Of course, a few warriors were more cautious. Word had spread about my defeat and the fall of Wolfsilver. They took Travis seriously, preparing themselves for the worst. Travis wasn’t someone you could underestimate.After a short meeting, I headed to the training ground alone. I needed to let off some steam and prepare myself for the rematch against Travis.I stayed up all night, throwing punches, imagining his movements from our last battle. Memorizing them. Preparing to counter them."I see you’re in good shape," Callum said in my head."I have to be," I replied. "I’ve got an ass to kick back home. It’s now or never, Callu
Tristan“How long should we wait here?!” I exclaimed in frustration, hitting the door with my bare fist. “We can’t just stand here doing nothing!”It had been a week since Travis captured my brother. A full week, and still no progress on Trevor’s rescue. The cabin was thick with the heavy stench of frustration and fear. Travis was too unpredictable to guess his next move, and I couldn’t bear the thought of regretting not doing something after everything Trevor had sacrificed for all of us. Including me.Ruther just sat there, his disappointment mirroring mine. Meanwhile, I could tell from Mike’s clenched jaw that he was trying his best to hold his emotions together. The whole Silver Rose Pack knew what Trevor had done for us. Even if they didn’t show it the same way I did, I knew they were ready to fight for him.“Calm down, Alpha. Emotions won’t get us anywhere,” Jared said cautiously.“Calm down?!” I snapped, turning on him. “You’ve been saying that all week! How can I calm down whe
TrevorMy eyes widened at the unexpected scene. I held my breath as I watched Megan being lovingly escorted by Travis."My love... What brings you here?" Travis kissed her hand and smiled."I got bored in my quarters," Megan said, crossing her arms as she stood beside Travis’ throne. "I didn’t expect to meet an old acquaintance."I scoffed, feeling disgusted just by the thought."In your wildest dreams."Megan walked towards Travis. When she reached him, she casually sat on his lap."Do you miss me already?" Travis whispered. He buried his face into her neck."Is there any reason why I shouldn’t miss you?" she teased.Without shame, Travis kissed her neck in front of everyone. Megan, devoured by his lips, smirked at me like she believed she'd climbed back into power. "I’m sure you’re not blind to see the result of your petty revenge," I said while clenching my fists. "Tell me, Megan, was it worth it?""Shut the hell up!" Megan screamed. "Don’t pretend you know nothing about my suffer
TrevorWolfsilver was beyond anything I had ever imagined.And not in a good way.My heart sank. Everything was in chaos. The moment I stepped onto the pack’s territory, I had to fight the overwhelming urge to stand up for the oppressed wolves around me."Please stop. I'm begging you," a woman whimpered. One of the rogues laughed cruelly before slapping the poor omega across the face."You're here to serve us! Do you want to die?" he shouted.Another rogue grabbed at her and tore her clothes. While a third pinned her to the ground.“No! Please…Don’t—”Travis' men were worse than animals. They were monsters. Soulless. Heartless. Driven by nothing but their twisted desires.It was broad daylight, and yet no one stopped them.The omega cried silently, humiliated and broken, as the rogues violated her.The warriors stood by and did nothing. They turned their eyes away and let hell swallow one of their own.This... this was normal here now.For the rogues, this was life.And Travis was th
