Panic surged through me. No. No, no, no. This wasn’t supposed to happen. I wasn’t supposed to be running for my life again. The sound of boots pounding the ground grew louder, sharper. They were coming for me.

I didn’t have time to think. I didn’t have time to plan. I just ran. My feet carried me faster than I had ever run before, the city’s streets becoming a blur as I darted between alleyways, desperate to stay one step ahead of the guards who were already hot on my trail.

I could hear them shouting orders to each other, their voices cutting through the night. "Spread out! Don’t let him get away!" It felt like the whole world was closing in on me. The weight of the key in my pocket seemed to grow heavier with every step, a constant reminder that I had made a deal that might have just been my downfall.

My heart pounded in my chest as I pushed myself harder, feet slamming against the pavement, lungs burning from the effort. I didn’t know where I was going, but I couldn’t stop. I

    Marcus POVThe room was dimly lit, the heavy curtains drawn, allowing just a sliver of moonlight to creep in through the gaps. The air was thick, the kind that pressed against your skin, making you feel like you were trapped in a space too small, too tight. But I was used to it.I sat across from the priestess, her calm demeanor barely hiding the sharpness in her eyes. She was beautiful in a way that made people forget who she truly was, but I never did. I had seen what she could do, the kind of power she held beneath that serene exterior. And I knew, deep down, she was just like everyone else in the council—a tool to be used, a pawn in a game far bigger than any of us realized.“What’s the status?” I asked, my voice quiet but firm, the kind that demanded attention even in the silence of the room.The priestess didn’t look up from the altar in front of her. Her hands moved delicately over the old texts, her fingers brushing across the ancient symbols, as if they held some kind of secr

    Priestess POv Tesla, lying on the altar, was still, save for the rise and fall of her chest. She had already given so much—her body, her spirit—everything that was needed to bring this moment to life. But even with her power, I could sense she was nearing her limit.Her face was pale, beads of sweat clinging to her forehead as she clenched her teeth, her hands gripping the edges of the altar. The ritual’s magic was coursing through her, but she was fading, her strength slipping away faster than I had anticipated.I glanced over to the table where Marcus stood, watching with that insatiable hunger in his eyes, the same hunger I had seen in countless others before him. The hunger for power, for control, for more than they could handle.“This is it,” I whispered to myself, even though I knew it was a lie. This was only the beginning. But the child. Tesla’s child. She was the key to everything, the reason we had gone through all this trouble. I could feel her stirring, already reachin

    Marcus POVThe air in the chamber crackled with tension, as if the very walls could sense the turmoil unfolding around us. I had spent too long preparing for this moment. The ritual, Tesla’s sacrifice, everything. It was supposed to be clean, controlled. But now, everything felt like it was slipping through my fingers, the power of the child an uncontrollable storm.I barely heard the knock at the door. It wasn’t the sound of an intruder, but of a messenger, and I was already too far gone in my thoughts to notice the difference. Still, I couldn’t ignore the urgency in his voice as he rushed inside.“Lord Marcus!” The messenger gasped, out of breath. “They’re coming. The enemy. They’ve crossed the border.”I froze. My pulse quickened, and for a brief moment, the swirling magic in the room faded from my focus. Enemies? It didn’t make sense. The city was fortified, its defenses unbreachable. And yet, here we were, being attacked in the middle of everything.“Who dares?” My voice was cold

    Marcus POV but before I could finish him off, he managed to break free with a violent thrash, his claws slashing through my side, just grazing me. I recoiled, blood seeping from the wound, but the pain only fueled my rage.I growled, my eyes locking onto his. This wasn’t just a fight—it was a statement. A statement that I was the alpha. I was the one in control, and no one—not even Henry—could take that from me.“You’re finished,” I growled, my voice low and dangerous.With a final surge of power, I tackled him to the ground once more, pinning him beneath me. He was no longer fighting back, his body trembling with the effort to stay conscious. I had him. There was no escaping it now.“You will never take anything from me,” I whispered, my breath hot against his ear. “Not now. Not ever.”The moment my claws dug into Henry's throat, I felt the rush of power surge through me, and it was intoxicating. His struggles weakened with each passing second, and I could hear the ragged breaths te

    Kael’s POVThe air grew heavy, thick with the tension of a fight that had gone on for far too long. Marcus was on the ground, blood staining his fur, his breaths shallow but defiant. Henry and I stood over him, panting but resolute. Victory was within our grasp, yet I couldn’t shake the sense that it wasn’t over. Not yet.Just as I prepared to deliver the final blow, the world shifted. The sun, bright and unyielding, dimmed. Shadows stretched across the battlefield, and within moments, the day plunged into darkness. A solar eclipse.A piercing cry broke through the unnatural silence—a baby’s cry, sharp and filled with a power that made my fur stand on end.Marcus, beaten and bloodied, began to laugh—a low, menacing chuckle that sent chills down my spine. He shifted back into his human form, his dark eyes gleaming with something that could only be described as madness.“Yes,” he hissed, rising to his knees despite the weight of his injuries. “Yes! It’s happening. Finally, it’s happenin

    Marcus’s fury was palpable. “Cowards!” he roared at his men. “You dare betray me? After everything I’ve done for you?”One of his soldiers, a burly man with a scar running down his face, stepped forward. “We followed you because we believed in your strength, Marcus. But now? Now we see you for what you are—a man blinded by his own arrogance.”Marcus’s face contorted with rage, but before he could respond, the baby’s cry echoed again, louder and more insistent.“What is that?” Henry demanded, his eyes darting toward the direction of the sound.Marcus’s lips curled into a sinister smile. “That,” he said, his voice trembling with excitement, “is the future. My future. And no matter what you do, you cannot stop it.”I stepped forward, my gaze locked onto his. “You’re wrong, Marcus. We can and we will. Whatever dark power you’ve unleashed, we’ll find a way to stop it.”He laughed again, but it was weaker now, his injuries catching up with him. “You’re a fool, Kael. Always have been. Always

    Tesla's POVThe heat woke me. It wasn’t scorching, but it was stifling enough to make me stir. My eyelids felt heavy, and my limbs ached as I shifted on the soft surface beneath me. For a moment, I thought I was still in the labor room. Hadn’t I just given birth?My heart jumped at the thought. The baby. I had given birth before the pain overtook me and darkness swallowed me whole.I forced myself upright, the ache in my body protesting every movement. The room was dimly lit, with a faint flicker of firelight dancing on the walls. It smelled of herbs and something earthy, unfamiliar. My surroundings were sparse but cozy. Then I heard it—the soft clicking of pots and the faintest coo of a baby.My baby.I turned my head toward the sound and froze. Kael.He stood by the fire, cradling the baby in his arms. His movements were gentle, deliberate, as though he feared the slightest wrong step might harm the tiny life in his hold. The sight struck something deep within me. Kael, the hardened

    “You’re a stubborn little thing,” I murmured, my voice softer now. She gurgled in response, her laughter fading into soft coos.I sat beside the makeshift cradle, watching her slowly drift off to sleep. Something in my chest tightened, an unfamiliar ache that made it hard to breathe.“Guess we’re stuck with each other, huh?” I whispered.The sound of a saw cutting through wood snapped me back to the present. I reached the factory gates and nodded at one of the workers as I entered. The men here were rough, their lives shaped by hard labor and harder circumstances. But they didn’t ask questions, and that was exactly what I needed.I swung the axe off my shoulder and got to work, each strike a release for the thoughts swirling in my mind. Tesla was probably awake by now, maybe even glaring at me for keeping her in the dark. She didn’t trust me, not fully, and I didn’t blame her.Then there was the child. Henry’s blood. That fact gnawed at me like a thorn in my side. Protecting her felt

    The old man’s smirk widened at Kael’s accusation. His sharp, calculating eyes gleamed in the dim firelight, reflecting the carnage around them. His hands, still clasped behind his back, twitched slightly—just enough for Kael to notice. Tesla’s trembling grew more violent. “You…” Kael’s voice was low, almost a whisper, but filled with restrained fury. “You did this to her.” The old man inclined his head, as if entertained by Kael’s discovery. “Indeed.” Kael clenched his fists. His body ached from the battle, but rage burned through him stronger than pain. “You turned her into… *this*.” A slow, amused chuckle rumbled from the old man’s throat. “Turned her?” He shook his head. “No, no, boy. I simply *unleashed* what was already there.” Tesla snarled, her body still locked in place, trembling, fighting something unseen. Her silver eyes flickered between recognition and complete void—between her and the monster clawing for control inside her. Henry gritted his teeth. “We’re s

  • I don't want you Alpha!    Chapter 126

    The battlefield was still. Only the crackling of burning trees and the heavy breaths of wounded wolves filled the night. Scar, now in his monstrous wolf form, towered over Tesla, his golden eyes gleaming with malice. He took slow, deliberate steps toward her, his massive paws sinking into the bloodstained ground. Kael and Henry stood at a distance, watching tensely, their bodies aching from battle. “This isn’t good,” Kael muttered. Henry growled lowly. “She’s strong… but Scar is something else.” Tesla’s white wolf didn’t move. Her silver eyes burned with something primal, something ancient. She stood firm, shoulders squared, her fur bristling as the wind swept through the clearing. Scar bared his fangs. “You think because you unlocked some hidden power, you can stand against me?” His voice was deep, laced with arrogance. “I am your end, little wolf.” Tesla didn’t respond. She lunged. The force of her attack sent shockwaves through the ground. She was fast—unnaturally

  • I don't want you Alpha!    Chapter 125

    The air grew tense. The moment Henry and Kael heard the snapping of branches behind them, they knew—Scar had caught up. A low, guttural growl rumbled through the darkness. Kael barely had time to shift before something massive slammed into him, knocking him sideways. Henry roared, his body already shifting mid-motion. Bones snapped, muscles expanded, fur sprouted along his skin. By the time he landed on all fours, his white fur gleamed under the moonlight. Scar’s men came like a storm, their snarls ripping through the night. Shadows moved fast, fangs flashing, claws striking. Kael barely had time to dodge the first attack before another wolf lunged. He twisted, kicking off a tree trunk, launching himself into his enemy with deadly force. His jaw clamped down on the wolf’s shoulder, his claws raking down its side. A yelp. A thud. But there was no time to breathe. Another came at him—then another. Henry was already deep in battle, his powerful form tearing through en

    The night stretched long and cold, the air thick with the scent of blood and damp earth. The battle had ended, but the war was far from over. Scar emerged from the shadows, his towering frame moving with deadly grace. His fur, a deep shade of charcoal, gleamed under the moonlight. Scars littered his body, marks of past battles, proof of his dominance. His golden eyes flickered with something unreadable as he stopped in front of the crumpled figure on the ground. Aldric. He was barely conscious, his breaths ragged, his body sprawled in the dirt, the wooden shard still embedded in his ribs. Blood pooled beneath him, dark and thick. He had lost. Scar tilted his head, a slow, measured movement. Then, without a word, he crouched down, gripping Aldric’s throat with one clawed hand. “Where are the others?” His voice was low, dangerous. Aldric’s lips curled into a weak snarl. He was in no condition to fight, no strength left to even lift his head. But he still had his pride. Sca

    The wolves lunged. A blur of furs clashed under the moonlight, fangs bared, claws tearing at the earth as they collided with bone-crushing force. A snarl ripped through the air. Henry struck first, fast and brutal, his jaws snapping dangerously close to Aldric’s throat. But Aldric was faster. He twisted at the last second, his massive paws striking Henry’s side, sending him skidding across the dirt. Lina let out a small cry behind me, but I didn’t turn. I couldn’t. My eyes were locked on the battle unfolding before us. Henry recovered in seconds, his white fur now streaked with dirt and blood, but he didn’t hesitate. He launched himself at Aldric again, jaws snapping— Aldric dodged, but Henry was relentless. He struck again. And again. Each attack more brutal than the last, his fangs sinking into Aldric’s shoulder— Aldric snarled in pain, but it didn’t slow him down. If anything, it only made him angrier. With a vicious growl, he twisted, his claws sl

    The blade came down. A sharp gasp lodged in my throat, but before I could make a sound, something clamped over my mouth. A hand. Strong. Unrelenting. I thrashed, my fingers clawing at the grip, but Aldric’s hold was ironclad. "Shh," he whispered against my ear, his breath cool, his voice eerily calm. "You don’t want to wake them just yet." The old man lay still. Unmoving. For a moment, my chest seized with fear, but then I saw it—his shallow, uneven breaths. He wasn’t dead. Not yet. Aldric must’ve realized he didn’t finish the job because his grip on me tightened, his frustration seeping through. I bit down. Hard. He let out a sharp curse, his hand jerking away just enough for me to suck in a deep breath— But I didn’t get the chance to scream. Because before I could, he yanked me backward, dragging me toward the barn doors with inhuman strength. I kicked, elbowed, fought— But he was faster. Stronger. I barely registered the doors swinging open b

    The forest had a way of making you feel small. The towering trees, the endless darkness stretching beyond where the eye could see—it swallowed you whole, made you feel like you were nothing but a fleeting presence in a world that had existed long before you and would continue to exist long after. I sat with my back against the rough bark of a tree, Lina curled up beside me, her breathing deep and even as sleep finally claimed her. I wished I could rest as easily. But exhaustion was a weight on my shoulders, pressing down, dragging me toward unconsciousness, yet my mind refused to let go. I wasn’t the only one. Kael sat a few feet away, sharpening a blade absentmindedly, his eyes trained on the trees, as if daring something to step out. Henry was on the other side of the clearing, lying down but not quite asleep, his arm resting over his eyes, lost in thought. Aldric sat against another tree, silent, unmoving. He hadn’t said much since earlier, and I wasn’t sure if I preferred

    TeslaOur footsteps were quiet, barely rustling the undergrowth as we moved through the forest, but the silence between us was louder than words. I kept my focus ahead, keeping close to Lina, who clung to my hand. Henry walked on my right, his jaw set in quiet determination, while Kael led the way with an unshaken confidence that made it seem like he always knew exactly where we were going. Aldric was behind me. Not too far. Not too close. Until he moved forward. I tensed. “I know you don’t trust me,” his voice was calm, even. “But you have to believe me—I didn’t do anything.” I didn’t answer. Didn’t even look at him. But he kept walking, his presence drawing closer, his voice lower now, just enough for me to hear. “I don’t expect you to trust me, Tesla,” he murmured, as if reading my mind. “But at least don’t see me as an enemy.” My fingers curled into a fist. “I never said you were my enemy.” Aldric exhaled softly. “But you think I could be.” I didn’t

    TeslaScar’s growl echoed in the night as he ran off, his wounded pride as deep as the gash across his chest. His brother limped beside him, their figures disappearing into the darkness like ghosts, leaving behind only the scent of blood and bitterness. I watched them go, my breath still uneven, my muscles aching from the fight. But there was no time to dwell on it. Henry shifted back into his human form beside me, his skin still marked with the traces of battle. Without hesitation, he crouched down, lifting the blind old man onto his back. “We need to move,” Henry said, his voice firm. Aldric gave a small nod, silent as ever. We left without looking back. Kael took the lead, moving through the darkness with his usual quiet precision. Aldric walked beside me, his senses sharp, still wary of another ambush. I kept my eyes ahead, my mind a whirlwind of unanswered questions, lingering doubts, and the weight of everything that had just happened. But the moment we stepped int
