Valeria

I wanted to believe Kade when he warned me to stay away from his father, to avoid him at all costs, but Kade himself wasn’t being completely honest with me. His warnings were vague, too protective, as if there was more he wasn’t telling me. And I was starting to wonder if he was keeping something from me on purpose. The more I thought about it, the clearer it became—Kade and his father were both hiding something.

The unease in my chest wouldn’t settle, even as I paced back and forth in the dimly lit corridor. The air in Shadowfang felt heavy, oppressive, like there were secrets swirling all around me. I couldn’t just sit and wait for something terrible to happen. I needed answers, and I needed them fast.

But I couldn’t ask Kade directly. He would either dismiss my concerns or give me more cryptic warnings about his father. No, I needed to figure this out on my own.

I slipped out of the packhouse, careful not to draw attention. The cold night air stung my skin as I made my way

    ValeriaFor the next few days, I avoided Kade and his father as much as possible. There was a tension in the air I couldn’t shake, and every time I saw Kade’s father’s dark eyes watching me, I felt like prey being stalked. His presence lingered like a shadow, always near enough to remind me that I was never truly alone, never out of his reach.I stayed on my guard, but it wasn’t easy. Shadowfang was Kade’s territory, his home, yet somehow, I always felt like I was trespassing, especially now. My suspicions about Kade’s father were growing by the day, but the more I tried to avoid him, the more he seemed to find ways to corner me.One evening, I was wandering through the woods near the packhouse, trying to clear my head. The trees provided some comfort, their towering presence grounding me as I processed everything that had been happening. But my peace didn’t last long. I felt a prickling at the back of my neck—the unmistakable sensation of being watched.I stopped, turning slowly. The

    ValeriaI wandered through the quiet halls of Shadowfang, my thoughts still spinning from my encounter with Kade’s father. His words had rattled me more than I cared to admit. There was truth to what he’d said—about the power inside me, about the uncertainty of who I was becoming. But the idea of trusting him? That was out of the question.As I walked, trying to clear my mind, I felt a strange pull—something almost instinctive leading me toward the outskirts of the pack’s territory. I didn’t know where I was going, but something told me I needed to follow it.The path led me deep into the woods, where the trees grew denser, their shadows casting long stretches of darkness. Just when I began to question if I was making a mistake, I saw him—a figure standing by a small, flickering fire. His back was turned to me, but something about him seemed familiar. He radiated an aura of calm and wisdom, a stark contrast to the turmoil inside me.“Valeria,” he called out without turning, his voice

    ValeriaThe night was quiet as I made my way back toward the house, my thoughts still lingering on everything Alaric had told me. The partial revelation of my so-called destiny hung heavily over me, and I couldn’t help but feel like I was still stumbling in the dark, unsure of where to turn next.But one thing was certain—I needed more answers. And those answers, at least some of them, were with Kade. The more I thought about, the more I felt like he knew more than he was letting on.I hesitated outside the door to his room, the cool night air swirling around me. My heart pounded in my chest, a mixture of anxiety and anticipation coursing through me. Despite everything, despite the secrets and the uncertainty, there was something undeniable between us. A pull I couldn’t ignore, no matter how hard I tried.I raised my hand, knocked softly, and waited.“Come in,” came his voice, low and steady, sending a shiver through me.I pushed the door open and stepped inside. Kade stood by the win

    ValeriaThe next morning, I woke to the soft light of dawn filtering through the window. Kade lay beside me, his arm draped over my waist, his face peaceful in sleep. But my mind was anything but calm.The events of the past few days spun around in my head like a storm. The uncertainty, the secrets, the prophecy—everything seemed to be spiraling out of control, and at the center of it all was Kade’s father. There was something dangerous about him, something that sent chills down my spine every time he was near. And I couldn’t shake the feeling that he was hiding something much darker than we could have imagined.I slipped out of bed quietly, careful not to wake Kade. Pulling on my clothes, I tiptoed out of the room, needing a moment to gather my thoughts. As I descended the stairs, a sense of unease settled over me. There were too many questions, too many things that didn’t add up. And I was determined to find out the truth.Kade’s father had been evasive, to say the least. He’d dropp

    ValeriaThe unease lingered long after Kade’s father left the room. I couldn’t shake the chill that settled deep in my bones, the knowledge that he was plotting something far more insidious than I’d ever imagined. His words echoed in my mind—his alliances with the rogues, his hunger for power. It all felt too big, too dangerous, and we were running out of time.Later that afternoon, I found myself pacing the small study, unable to sit still. Kade was out handling some pack business, but even that seemed like a diversion compared to the storm brewing just beneath the surface. I couldn’t stop thinking about the implications of what we’d uncovered.We knew now that Kade’s father was the mastermind behind rogue activities, but there was more to it than just his control over one faction. I had overheard conversations, picked up on subtle hints during my own discreet investigations. Kade’s father had been meeting with other rogue leaders, making deals, solidifying alliances. It wasn’t just

    ValeriaI couldn’t shake the frustration that gnawed at me after my search for Alaric led to nothing. Days had passed, and I had scoured the pack lands and beyond, seeking any trace of the man who had once seemed to have all the answers. He had warned me, given me cryptic advice, and then disappeared without a trace. Now, I was left to face the looming threat of Kade’s father and the second trial alone.Eira found me near the edge of the forest, pacing as my thoughts spiraled out of control. The trees swayed gently in the wind, the sounds of nature doing little to calm the turmoil in my chest.“You’ve been looking for him again, haven’t you?” Eira asked softly, her voice carrying a weight of knowing.I stopped pacing and turned to face her. “I thought I could find him. Alaric. He seemed to know so much, and I… I need answers. But he’s vanished.”Eira shook her head, her expression both gentle and firm. “Valeria, I’ve asked around. No one here has seen or heard of a man like the one yo

    RylanStanding at the edge of the balcony, I stared into the distant horizon, where the sprawling forests of Blackridge met the sky. The pressure in my chest was growing tighter by the day. It wasn’t just the constant demands of the pack—it was the relentless pressure from my father and now my mother, too, to marry Seraphina. I thought coming back home would give me some peace, a chance to regain control, but I hadn’t been able to stop thinking about Valeria. She was still in Shadowfang, with Kade, of all people. My every instinct screamed at me to go back and protect her, but my father was not giving me that choice.“Rylan,” my mother’s soft voice broke through my thoughts, pulling me back to the moment. “You need to think about the future, the pack. Seraphina is a good match.”I clenched my jaw. This was the same conversation we’d had for days now, and I was tired of repeating myself. “I’ve already told you, Mother. I’m mated to Valeria. I can’t marry Seraphina.”“You’ve also told u

    RylanI stood in the center of my room, staring at the letter in my hand, the official seal still pressed into the wax. The second trial. It had arrived.Valeria’s name was all over the letter, her fate intertwined with the words, and I couldn’t shake the weight that came with it. I had known this moment was coming, but I didn’t expect it to feel so… final. It wasn’t just about the trial anymore. It was about everything that had been set in motion since Valeria came into our lives.“Are you planning to leave without me?” Seraphina’s voice echoed from the doorway, her calm, collected tone pulling me from my thoughts.I turned to face her, my chest tightening. Seraphina stood there, arms crossed, watching me with those sharp eyes of hers. She had this way of making me feel like I was under constant scrutiny, like every move I made was being analyzed.“I need to go to the wolf pack ,” I said, trying to keep my voice steady. “The second trial is happening, and I need to be there for Valer

    Valeria Stepping into the packhouse, I let out a breath I didn’t even realize I was holding. My mind was still spinning from what had just happened. Rogues… they had threatened me, and if that was true, it meant something far more disturbing—Jeric hadn’t been killed by Kade, but by the rogues. The weight of that realization settled heavy in my chest as I walked forward, the packhouse looming before me in the night.Outside, I spotted Rylan. His tall, broad figure was unmistakable, even in the shadows. He was pacing, looking tense and worried, his eyes scanning the darkness as if he were searching for something—or someone. Probably me.I took a deep breath and steeled myself. There was no time to dwell on the fear gnawing at my insides. I had to tell someone, but the pieces of the puzzle still didn’t fit perfectly. Why would the rogues care about me becoming Luna Queen? What was the real reason behind all this?“Valeria?” Rylan’s voice broke through my thoughts as he spotted me. His e

    Valeria The rogue leader’s grin widened as he leaned against the stone wall of the small, dark room they had thrown me into. His eyes glinted with amusement, like he was enjoying my confusion. I narrowed my gaze at him, refusing to let fear take root in my voice.“Why should I give up the coronation?” I demanded. “What could you possibly gain from stopping me?”The rogue leader crossed his arms, tilting his head as if considering my question. His features were sharp, hardened by years of living in the wild, away from the structure and protection of a pack. There was a wildness in his eyes that unnerved me, but I kept my composure.“I could ask you the same question, Luna,” he said, his voice low and gravelly. “What’s in it for you? Power? Control? Or is it something more personal?”I kept my face neutral, refusing to let him bait me into an argument. “Becoming the Luna Queen isn’t just about power. It’s about protecting my pack, uniting the wolves against Malachai. You know what he’s

    Valeria The morning of Jeric’s funeral came far too quickly. The air was heavy with the weight of loss, and as I stood in front of the mirror, adjusting the simple black dress I had chosen for the day, a dull ache settled deep in my chest. The Beta of our pack—Jeric, my friend and one of my most loyal supporters—was gone. It still didn’t feel real.I took a deep breath, trying to steady myself. Today was not about me; it was about honoring Jeric and his service to the wolf pack. But deep down, the growing storm of uncertainty and betrayal gnawed at me. Who could have done this? And why?A soft knock sounded at my door, pulling me from my thoughts. I opened it to find Rylan standing there, his face a mixture of concern and determination. His presence always brought a strange comfort, though today, I couldn’t shake the tension that seemed to hang in the air between us.“Valeria,” he said softly, stepping into the room. “I wanted to check on you before the funeral. Are you alright?”I f

    Valeria Sitting on the stone ledge of the balcony, I watched the sky above me, dark and heavy with clouds that threatened rain but never delivered. The stars were barely visible through the blanket of gray, and it felt as though the world was mirroring my internal turmoil. The night air was cool, biting against my skin, but I didn’t care. I had too much on my mind to even notice.Jeric was dead. Kade was being accused of his murder. And now, just days before I was supposed to be crowned as Luna Queen, everything felt like it was falling apart.I rested my head in my hands, my chest tightening as the weight of it all pressed down on me. This wasn’t how things were supposed to go. Jeric was supposed to be by my side, helping me navigate the political minefield, guiding me through the challenges of leadership. And Kade—how could anyone think that Kade would kill him? It didn’t make sense. Kade and Jeric had been brothers in everything but blood. To believe that Kade would betray him, be

    KadeJeric’s body had barely gone cold, and already I felt the weight of the world pressing down on me. My heart was shattered, and my mind spun in chaotic loops. Jeric—my best friend, my brother in arms—was gone, ripped from this world by an assassin’s blade. I hadn’t been able to save him, and that failure sat heavy on my chest like a boulder.But even in my grief, one thing was clear: this wasn’t just an attack. It was a deliberate, calculated strike meant to unravel everything we’d been working for. The timing, the location, the swiftness of the blow—it was all too perfect. Jeric’s death was designed to stop Valeria’s coronation and plunge us into chaos. And I could already feel the noose tightening around my neck.The moment I stepped foot back into the pack’s territory, the whispers began. Eyes followed me with suspicion, and the once-familiar faces of my pack members now seemed hostile, accusing. I gritted my teeth, trying to hold it together as I made my way to the heart of th

    The night air was thick with anticipation as I made my way to the meeting point. The moon hung low, casting a pale glow over the forest clearing. The coronation was less than twenty-four hours away, and every muscle in my body was coiled tight, ready to spring at the slightest hint of danger.I hated this feeling—the gnawing uncertainty that had settled in my gut over the past few days. I tried to push it down, but the closer we got to Valeria’s coronation, the louder that inner voice became. Something wasn’t right. I could feel it.As I approached the clearing, I spotted Jeric standing by the fire we’d set up for these late-night strategy sessions. His silhouette was tall and steady, the flames casting shadows across his face as he rifled through some papers. Jeric, ever the politician, ever the confident leader, always looked so damn composed.“Kade,” he called out, not looking up from his notes. “You’re late.”“Had to check on security,” I replied, coming to stand beside him. “You

    KadeThe sun was setting as I stood by the window, staring out at the training grounds below. Pack members moved with purpose, preparing for Valeria’s coronation. Despite the outward display of unity, I could feel the tension simmering beneath the surface. It was subtle, but it was there—whispers, side glances, moments of hesitation when Valeria’s name was mentioned. Some still doubted her, questioning whether she was strong enough to lead us, to unite the packs and face Malachai’s growing threat.I shook my head, pushing those thoughts aside. Jeric and I had come too far to let doubts derail our plans now. We had the support of most of the key leaders, and once the coronation was done, Valeria would have the authority she needed to solidify her position. Still, something gnawed at me. Seraphina’s presence lingered like a shadow, always on the edge of things. She was no longer openly defiant, but I knew better than to trust her sudden silence.“Something’s not right,” I muttered to my

    KadeThe room was quiet except for the soft scratching of pens on paper. I glanced at Jeric across the table, his brow furrowed in concentration as he scribbled notes in the margins of the coronation agenda. His dedication to Valeria’s future as Luna Queen was unwavering, a quality I both admired and relied on. He believed in her, just as I did. Her ascension was not just about securing the future of the pack—it was about standing strong against the threat Malachai posed to all of us. If Valeria could unite the packs under one banner, we’d have the strength we needed to crush him.“We need to make sure the northern pack leaders are on board,” Jeric said, not looking up from his notes. “Without their support, it’ll be hard to get the others to fall in line.”I nodded, leaning back in my chair. The coronation was less than a week away, and the opposition was growing. There were those who still questioned Valeria’s capability, who whispered that she wasn’t ready to lead. But I knew bette

    RylanThe night was thick with shadows as I moved through the dense trees, the silence broken only by the soft crunch of leaves beneath my boots. It had taken time to make the necessary arrangements, to ensure that no one would notice my absence from the packhouse. This was a dangerous meeting, one that would raise too many questions if anyone found out. But I didn’t have a choice. The stakes were higher than anyone realized, and I had to take control of the situation before it spiraled beyond our grasp.The rogues had agreed to meet me at the edge of the forest, far from any patrol routes or prying eyes. It was neutral ground, but there was always an underlying tension when dealing with rogues. They weren’t bound by the same rules or codes that governed the packs. They thrived on chaos, on breaking the very order I was sworn to uphold. But tonight, I needed them.As I stepped into the clearing, I saw them waiting. Three rogue leaders, each with their own reputation for violence and c
