Valeria

As we arrived at the packhouse of the wolf pack, a strange blend of familiarity and unease washed over me. The towering structure with its rustic stone walls and heavy wooden doors felt like home, yet beneath that comfort lay an undeniable sense of danger, as if unseen eyes were watching me.

My heart pounded, and I couldn’t shake the feeling that something was about to go terribly wrong. I don’t know what it was about but the feeling wouldn’t shake off my mind. It was as if the dangers were lurking in the shadows, waiting for me to make a mistake or for me to come to it, almost like that undeniable pull I felt as it drew me back to the wolf pack on that night I came back here.

The moment I stepped out of the car, I was greeted by the comforting presence of Rylan and Aiden. Their faces were solemn but kind, both of them exuding a warmth I clung to. Their faces weren’t masked with stern expressions unlike Kade who looked like he had just finished fighting in a war.

    ValeriaI couldn’t shake the chill that crept up my spine as I watched one of the cloaked figures disperse into the shadows. Had they seen me? My heart was racing, and I could barely keep my breaths steady as I stayed hidden in the darkness. But then, just as I was about to turn and slip back into the packhouse, something caught my eye. One of the figures had broken off from the group, disappearing into the woods behind the courtyard.The other person had disappeared out of sight just before I could poke my head out again.I hesitated for a moment. I knew it wasn’t wise to follow someone into the forest, especially someone I suspected was involved in the Alpha King’s death, but my curiosity burned hotter than my sense of self-preservation. Without thinking, I found myself stepping into the moonlit path, trailing behind the cloaked figure at a safe distance.Each step was calculated, my feet moving as silently as possible on the dirt path. The figure ahead of me moved swiftly, like they

    Valeria My legs ached with every step, the soreness from the fight with the rogue gnawing at me, but I forced myself to keep going. The sight of the packhouse brought a rush of relief, but it was fleeting. As I drew closer, I saw Kade standing outside, his eyes scanning the darkness. There was an unmistakable look of worry etched into his features. It was a look I hadn’t seen from him before, and for some reason, it made my chest tighten.The moment he spotted me, he rushed toward me, his brows furrowed in concern. “Where have you been?” he demanded, his voice sharp with worry. “You disappeared from your room all of a sudden. I thought—”“I just needed to get some fresh air,” I interrupted, forcing a small smile, though it was nowhere near convincing. There was no way I was going to tell him the truth—not about the rogue, the fight, or the strange power that had burst out of me again. He wouldn’t believe me anyway.Kade’s eyes roamed over me, taking in my disheveled appearance, the c

    Valeria The next morning arrived with a thick, heavy cloud of sorrow hanging over the wolf pack. The air itself seemed to mourn the loss of the Alpha King and his family. As I dressed for the funeral, a somber chill ran down my spine. There was a hollowness in my chest, a strange ache that throbbed with every breath. I couldn’t explain it, but the closer we got to the time of the ceremony, the more unsettled I felt.Rylan had insisted on accompanying me, and I was grateful. As much as I tried to stand strong, something about this day made me feel as if I might crumble at any moment. We walked in silence, and I found myself unconsciously leaning into his side, seeking comfort in his presence. He didn’t say anything about it, but his arm brushed against mine, and it was enough to ground me.When we reached the ceremonial grounds, my heart clenched. The sight of the Alpha King and his family being laid to rest was overwhelming. A strange familiarity swept through me, as if I knew them,

    ValeriaWith Kade gone, the packhouse felt strangely quieter, more still than usual. I spent most of my day with Rylan, trying to distract myself from the weight of everything looming over me: the trial, the prophecy, the questions swirling in my mind about the rogue, and my growing connection with my mates. Rylan, as always, was steady and reliable, his calm presence offering a kind of solace I desperately needed.We took a walk through the woods in the afternoon, and I found myself laughing more than I had in days. Rylan had a way of making me feel lighter, as if the world wasn’t quite so heavy when he was around. We talked about everything and nothing—the trials he’d been through as a pack warrior, my childhood memories, and even mundane things like our favorite foods. I appreciated that he didn’t bring up the trial or the prophecy, choosing instead to focus on the present, on just being with me.By the time night fell, the air had cooled considerably. We returned to the packhouse,

    Valeria The early morning light seeped through the curtains as I forced myself out of bed, already feeling the warmth of the day ahead. I hadn’t slept well after everything that had happened with Rylan the night before. My mind was still tangled with thoughts of the mate bond, the trial, and the strange prophecy Jeric had mentioned at the funeral. I wasn’t sure what to make of any of it, but I knew I didn’t have time to dwell on it now. A pack member had come to my door with a summons from Jeric. Great. Just great.I sighed, pulling myself together, and headed to Jeric’s office, preparing myself for another round of accusations or smug remarks. As I entered, I kept my expression neutral, waiting for whatever new insult he had in store for me.But to my surprise, Jeric didn’t launch into any tirade. Instead, he leaned back in his chair, a curious expression on his face. “Valeria,” he began, his tone strangely calm, “do you know anything about the prophecy of the coming Luna Queen?”I

    KadeThe ride back to Shadowfang’s packhouse felt longer than usual. Every mile stretched on, weighed down by thoughts of Valeria. Leaving her behind felt like tearing a part of me away—like there was something vital missing. But I couldn’t let myself stay, not after everything that had happened. Not with everything I still carried.Callan, my beta, glanced at me from the driver’s seat. I could feel his eyes on me, though I kept mine on the passing trees. “You sure leaving her like that was the right move?” he asked, breaking the silence.I exhaled slowly, trying to rein in the storm of emotions swirling inside me. “I don’t know, Callan,” I admitted, running a hand through my hair. “What’s the right move in a situation like this?”“She’s your mate, Alpha,” Callan said. “You can’t keep acting like she doesn’t matter. She needs to know where you stand, and so far, you’ve shown her nothing but nonchalance, reticence and closed-off.”“She’s still under suspicion, Callan, don’t forget,” I

    Kade “You should learn to lighten up, boy,” he chuckled deviously. “Want some smoke?”His eyes were sharp as ever, studying me with a cold, calculating gaze. The room felt like it shrunk the moment I had stepped inside, my heart pounding in my chest as the familiar tension between us settled like a thick fog.“I didn’t know you were in town,” I replied instead, keeping my tone as neutral as possible. My stomach twisted in knots. The last time we’d spoken, things hadn’t ended well. It was a conversation that still haunted me, one filled with harsh words, threats, and ultimatums.“Business,” he said simply as he lit up his smoke, as if that was what mattered to him the most. But of course, I knew more than anyone that he could only come back to the pack for a reason… and what that reason could be, scared me. I stayed silent, waiting for him to continue. He never showed up without an agenda, and I wasn’t about to play into whatever scheme he had planned. My father had always been a ma

    Valeria The day of my first trial had come. The pressure of it hung heavily in the air as I stood before the council, every gaze in the room focused on me. My pulse throbbed in my ears, but I couldn’t let them see my fear. Rylan and Aiden stood at my side, their silent support a small comfort in the midst of the chaos swirling around me. Jeric, of course, was the first to speak, his voice sharp and biting.“What was your relationship with Prince Darius before he rejected you as his mate?” Jeric’s tone was accusatory, as if he already knew the answer and was waiting for me to fall into a trap.I met his eyes, keeping my voice steady. “We weren’t close, not even after discovering we were mates. There was no bond between us.”Jeric’s lips twitched, as if he were amused by my response. He was like a predator, circling me, waiting for the right moment to strike. Another member of the council, an elder with grey streaks in his hair, leaned forward and asked the next question.“If that was

    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
