Valeria

The ride back to Rylan’s pack was quiet, the tension between us palpable. After finalizing the last plans for my coronation, I had returned with Rylan, eager to set everything in motion, but deep down, a lingering unease gnawed at me. There were so many moving pieces, so much still unresolved, and I couldn’t shake the feeling that something was about to go terribly wrong.

Rylan had been by my side every step of the way, his loyalty unwavering, but that didn’t ease the uncertainty in my heart. After everything that had happened—the threats from the rogues, Jeric’s death, the accusations against Kade—it felt like the world was closing in on me. I’d made up my mind to become Luna Queen, no matter what, but I would have to wait for the right moment to make my move.

That night, the packhouse was unusually quiet. The wind outside howled through the trees, making the night feel even more ominous. I sat by the window, staring out into the darkness, my thoughts drifting back to Jeric.

    Valeria The door to Rylan’s room slammed open with a force that shook the walls, and I stormed inside, my heart pounding with fury and betrayal. Rylan stood by the window, his back to me, but I could tell by the way his body tensed that he knew something was wrong. He turned slowly, his brow furrowed in confusion, but there was no trace of surprise in his eyes.“Valeria?” he said, his voice calm, as if nothing in the world could be amiss. “What’s going on?”I didn’t bother with pleasantries. I didn’t have the time or the patience for it. My chest felt tight with the anger I had been bottling up since my conversation with Malachai. That one name—Rylan—had sent my world crashing down, and now I stood here, face to face with the man who was supposed to be my mate, the man who had betrayed me in the worst way possible.“Did you really think I wouldn’t find out?” I spat, stepping closer to him, my fists clenched at my sides. “That I wouldn’t discover what you’ve been doing behind my back?

    ValeriaThe air in the council chamber was thick with tension. I stood before the council elders, the weight of the truth heavy on my chest. This was the moment I had been waiting for, the moment I had to set everything straight, no matter how painful it was.“I have called this meeting because the truth about Jeric’s death must be revealed,” I began, my voice steady despite the storm swirling inside me. “Jeric was not killed by Kade. He was killed by Rylan Darkridge.”The room fell into a shocked silence. The elders exchanged uneasy glances, their expressions a mix of disbelief and confusion. But I held my ground, my gaze unwavering as I met each of their eyes.“You all trusted Rylan as one of our own,” I continued, my voice gaining strength with every word. “But his betrayal runs deeper than any of us could have imagined. He worked with the rogues to sabotage my coronation, to prevent me from becoming the Luna Queen. And when Jeric stood in his way, he had him killed.”Elder Marcus,

    Valeria After the coronation, the air buzzed with the energy of new beginnings, but beneath that, a darker current was brewing. The war I was about to declare would shape the future of my reign. As Luna Queen, I had to show strength, decisiveness, and a relentless drive to protect my pack. There was no room for hesitation.Standing before my pack, gathered in the grand hall of the packhouse, I raised my voice so all could hear. “The rogues who conspired with Rylan to kill Jeric are enemies of this pack and every pack under our alliance. They threaten our peace, our way of life, and the future of our packs. They have murdered without remorse and plotted to divide us. But they have underestimated us.” I felt the eyes of my pack members on me, some anxious, others filled with the same determination that fueled me. “From this day forward, I declare war against the rogues. We will hunt them down, crush their rebellion, and restore order.”The room erupted with murmurs and nods of approval

    Valeria The cold air of the night brushed against my skin as I made my way to the edge of the packhouse, where Kade had been avoiding me since my announcement. I had been prepared for this—knew it was coming—but the weight of what I was about to do still clung to my chest like a vice. When I reached him, he was standing by the tree line, staring out into the darkness, his back to me.“Kade,” I called softly, but the word felt like it barely made a sound in the night.He stiffened at the sound of my voice, but he didn’t turn around. His silence was more painful than any argument we could have had. I took a deep breath and stepped closer, trying to will myself to find the right words. Words that wouldn’t break him any more than they already had.“I’m sorry,” I whispered, my voice barely audible. “I didn’t want it to be like this.”He turned slowly, his eyes locking with mine. The raw emotion in his gaze hit me harder than I expected—pain, frustration, and something I couldn’t quite pl

    ValeriaI watched as Rylan was led toward the holding cells, his hands bound in silver chains, his head hanging low. The once-proud Alpha, who had once stood by my side, now appeared utterly defeated. But there was no sympathy left in my heart for him. The betrayal still burned like an open wound, and I couldn’t find it in myself to offer him any kindness—not after everything he had done.He paused in front of me, and for a moment, our eyes met. There was no defiance in his gaze, no trace of the arrogance he once wore so easily. Instead, he looked resigned, perhaps even remorseful. I had to force myself to stay still, to keep my expression cold and detached. I wouldn’t let him see how much this affected me.“Valeria,” Rylan’s voice was hoarse, barely above a whisper, as if the weight of everything he’d done had finally caught up to him. “I’m sorry.”I clenched my fists at my sides, trying to keep my emotions in check. Sorry? He thought sorry would fix this? After everything he had don

    KadeReturning to Shadowfang after Valeria’s coronation was like walking into the coldest, darkest night of my life. The weight of it all pressed down on me—the announcement, the betrayal, the gut-wrenching pain of watching her choose Aiden. My heart still ached, and I couldn’t shake the feeling that she was making the biggest mistake of her life, aligning herself with the wrong man.The ride back was silent, but my mind wouldn’t stop. Valeria—my mate—was supposed to be by my side, not his. How could she throw us away so easily? Every time I thought of her standing there, announcing her decision to marry Aiden, it felt like a blade twisted deeper into my chest. But no matter how much it hurt, I knew this wasn’t just about me. Valeria was putting herself and her entire pack at risk.I clenched my fists as the packhouse came into view. The familiar stone walls were supposed to be my sanctuary, a place where I could clear my head, but today they felt more like a cage. My duty as Alpha pu

    KadeThe moment I stepped back into Shadowfang territory, the air felt heavier. The tension, the whispers, the sideways glances—it was all there, hanging over me like a dark cloud. My pack wasn’t the same. Not after the fallout with Valeria. Not after everything that had gone down with the rogues and Jeric’s death. I could feel their doubt, their suspicion, like a pulse in the air. They questioned my leadership. And I couldn’t even blame them.I knew what they were thinking. Some of them probably believed I’d had a hand in Jeric’s death. Others thought I’d lost my edge, distracted by Valeria and the mess surrounding the Luna Queen coronation. They weren’t wrong about one thing—I hadn’t been focused on Shadowfang, not the way I should’ve been. But how could I focus on my duties when Valeria was out there, aligning herself with Aiden and preparing for a war she wasn’t ready for?As I made my way to the packhouse, I caught the whispers—low, barely audible, but there. They didn’t need to

    KadeIt was late, and I couldn’t sleep. The familiar pull of my mate bond with Valeria still tugged at me, even though I knew it was a one-sided ache. She had severed it emotionally, distanced herself, but the connection lingered, refusing to be broken entirely. My mind replayed our last conversation on a loop, every word, every moment. I kept wondering if there was something—anything—I could have said or done differently. Maybe I should have fought harder, said more, begged if that was what it took. But Valeria was headstrong, and once she made up her mind, it was near impossible to change it.She had chosen Aiden. My chest tightened every time I thought of it. She was going to marry him. How could she not see the danger she was walking into? Aiden wasn’t to be trusted, and even if he wasn’t the one pulling the strings, there were darker forces at play. And now, she was aligning herself with him, distancing herself from me, from the mate bond, from everything we could have been.I go

    Valeria The sun was setting, casting a golden hue over the rolling hills of our land. I stood at the edge of the valley, watching as the horizon stretched out before me, peaceful and calm for the first time in what felt like an eternity. Malachai was gone. The prophecy, the endless fear, and the war that had nearly torn us apart were finally behind us.Yet, as I stood there, I couldn’t help but feel the weight of everything that had happened still lingering in the air. The scars of war were everywhere—our people were still healing, physically and emotionally. The land, once ravaged by battle, was beginning to bloom again, but it would take time before the wounds fully closed.Aiden came up beside me, his presence quiet yet strong. “It’s beautiful, isn’t it?” he said softly, his voice low and thoughtful. “A reminder of what we fought for.”I nodded, feeling the warmth of his words settle into me. “It is. But it still feels surreal.”He didn’t respond immediately, but I could feel the

    ValeriaThe battlefield felt like a living, breathing entity of chaos. Bodies clashed, blades rang out in the air, and the ground trembled beneath the weight of war. My heart pounded in time with every step, every breath, as we closed in on Malachai. He was a towering figure in the distance, cloaked in shadows that seemed to stretch into eternity, feeding on the destruction around him.And yet, for the first time since this war began, I felt an odd sense of clarity. I had spent so much of my life fearing the prophecy, its every word haunting my choices and decisions. But now, as we faced the monster who had manipulated us all, I realized something profound—the prophecy wasn’t a binding force. It was a reflection of potential, a set of paths laid out before us, not an inescapable fate.It was always about choice.The roar of the battle faded into the background as I focused on the task ahead. Aiden, Rylan, and Kade flanked me, their presence a constant reminder that I wasn’t alone in t

    ValeriaThe night before the final battle was heavy with anticipation, but as I stood among the gathered forces of our united packs, I felt a quiet resolve settle over me. The stars above us twinkled like distant watchers, indifferent to the war we were about to wage. My heart was steady, though. I had faced impossible odds before, but this time, I wasn’t alone. Aiden, Rylan, and Kade stood with me, their presence a reminder of the strength we’d built together. The pack—our pack—was ready to follow us into whatever hell Malachai had prepared.The wind shifted, carrying the scent of danger on the breeze, a prelude to the battle that awaited us at dawn. I could sense Malachai’s army just beyond the horizon. His power had grown, infecting the land like a spreading disease. Every day we delayed, he became stronger. The prophecy still loomed, a dark shadow hanging over our heads, whispering of betrayal and ruin. But I had made a decision—I wasn’t going to let fear dictate my choices. The o

    ValeriaThe preparations for the ceremony were unlike anything I’d ever imagined for myself. Growing up as an Alpha, I’d always known that duty would take precedence over personal desires. The idea of a grand union or formalizing any bond had always seemed like a distraction, something that could weaken my resolve. Yet here I was, standing before my mates—Aiden, Rylan, and Kade—ready to pledge myself not just as their partner but as a leader who understood the power of unity.I never thought I would reach this point, where personal love and leadership could coexist in harmony. But now, as I stood alongside them, I knew this wasn’t just for me. This was for the pack, for the future we were building together.We had chosen a sacred place in the heart of the forest, where the borders of our packs converged—a symbol of the unity we were about to solidify. As the evening sun cast its golden light through the trees, the air around us buzzed with anticipation. Both packs—mine, Aiden’s Stormc

    ValeriaKade’s presence was like a wildfire, unpredictable and consuming, always threatening to pull me out of the rigid control I kept over myself. He had been my constant reminder of the passions I often pushed aside in favor of duty and leadership, and there was no denying the electric connection that sparked between us whenever we were near each other. Yet, despite everything, I had resisted him. Resisted the bond that tied us together, just as I had with Rylan and Aiden.Now, as I stood facing him, feeling the intensity of his gaze, I knew I could no longer run from the truth. He was a part of me, a part of the strength I had yet to fully embrace. And Kade, with all his wildness and fire, knew it too.“Valeria,” he said, his voice low and steady, though there was an undercurrent of emotion there that I couldn’t ignore. “You’ve been keeping me at arm’s length for too long.”I swallowed hard, the truth of his words hitting me deep. I had kept him at a distance. I had feared the par

    ValeriaRylan stood beside me, his sharp eyes scanning the map laid out in front of us. Every line of his body radiated confidence, strength, and a sense of calm that had always been a source of comfort for me, especially in times like this. But there was something different now—something between us that had shifted. It wasn’t just the shared battles or the way he had become the glue holding our pack together in my darkest moments. There was a deeper connection, one that I had been resisting for longer than I cared to admit.For so long, I had seen Rylan as my Beta, my trusted second-in-command. His loyalty to me had never wavered, even when I had doubted my own leadership. But now, standing so close to him, I realized that what lay between us went beyond loyalty. It went beyond duty, beyond the bond of pack leadership. The truth was undeniable, no matter how much I had tried to ignore it. He wasn’t just my Beta. He was my mate.Rylan caught me staring and raised an eyebrow, a small s

    ValeriaThe moment I saw Aiden approaching, my heart clenched, a swirl of emotions rising to the surface that I had tried to bury for so long. Anger, hurt, relief, and something else—something deeper, something I had been too afraid to name. His steps were measured, careful, as though he was unsure of his place in my world now. And after everything that had happened, I couldn’t blame him.We hadn’t spoken since the fallout, since the day our paths had diverged in opposite directions. I had chosen unity, alliances, and cooperation; he had chosen isolation, dominance, and the old ways. We’d been too stubborn, too set in our beliefs to bend for one another. And now, here we were again, standing on the edge of something new, but the scars of the past lingered.Aiden stopped a few feet away from me, his gaze meeting mine. There was a storm of regret and determination in his eyes, and I couldn’t help but notice how much he had changed. The weight of the prophecy, the battles he had faced al

    ValeriaThe weight of everything that had happened—the rogue attacks, the betrayal, the doubt—pressed down on me like a heavy cloak. I had always prided myself on being strong enough to carry that weight alone, to lead my pack without faltering. But as I sat in my quarters, my head in my hands, I realized that I couldn’t do it by myself.I needed help.It wasn’t an easy realization to come to. My pride had always been a fortress, keeping me standing tall, keeping me independent. But now, that same pride was isolating me, closing me off from those who wanted to help. I had resisted fully embracing the mate bond with Aiden, Rylan, and Kade, thinking it would somehow make me appear weak. I didn’t want anyone to think I couldn’t lead without leaning on them.But the truth was, I needed them.With a deep breath, I pushed myself off the chair and wiped the remnants of tears from my face. I would seek them out. Despite everything that had happened, they were still my mates, and I knew they w

    Valeria The rogue attacks came like a storm—relentless, unpredictable, and brutal. My warriors fought valiantly, but each clash left us weaker, more uncertain. And the worst part? It wasn’t just the enemies outside our borders that I had to contend with; it was the growing unrest within my own pack. Doubt had taken root, spreading like wildfire among my people.I could see it in their eyes as they returned from battle, bloodied and exhausted. They looked to me for answers, for direction. And for the first time in my life, I wasn’t sure if I had any to give.It started as murmurs, whispers in the shadows. Some believed I was too focused on diplomacy, on maintaining alliances and seeking unity when what we needed was brute strength and aggression. Others feared I was leaning too heavily on the prophecy, trusting in an ancient foretelling instead of leading with action.I stood in the center of our war room, staring down at the map that detailed our territory, the areas where the rogue
