Luna Awakening: Claimed By Her Three Alphas 55
Valeria As the night grew darker and quieter, I found myself wandering the grounds of the packhouse, trying to make sense of the chaos that had become my life. The moon hung low in the sky, casting a pale glow over the trees, and the crisp air filled my lungs, helping to clear my head. I needed this. A moment to breathe, to think, to figure out what the hell I was going to do next.Returning to Shadowfang with Kade felt like my only option. With the council and half the pack against me, staying here was too dangerous. And yet, the thought of going back to Shadowfang didn’t exactly fill me with relief either. Kade had lied to me. He had kept the truth about who I was hidden, and while I understood his fears, it didn’t erase the betrayal I felt. I didn’t know how to feel about him now.And then there was Rylan. I sighed, rubbing my temples as I remembered the confrontation earlier.“Do you still want to reject me?” Rylan had asked, his voice raw with emotion. His piercing eyes searched

ValeriaThe journey to Shadowfang pack was shrouded in a thick, uncomfortable silence. I glanced at Kade from time to time, his profile hard and unreadable as he drove us through the dense forest that separated the two territories. The tension between us was palpable, almost suffocating, but I wasn’t ready to break it just yet. There was so much left unsaid, so much I didn’t know how to address. His betrayal still stung, the fact that he had kept such a monumental secret from me,my identity, my powers,made it difficult to trust him fully again.I crossed my arms and leaned back against the seat, staring out the window at the blurred scenery. My mind was swirling with thoughts about everything that had happened,the council’s dissent, being named the Luna Queen, the mysterious figure from last night who claimed to know more about my power than I did. And then there was Rylan, whose question still echoed in my mind: Do you still want to reject me?I sighed softly, trying to clear my head

ValeriaThe night air felt thick as I stood before Malachai, my heart pounding with the weight of his words. Valeria Nightshade. The name echoed in my mind, unfamiliar and unsettling. I crossed my arms, narrowing my eyes at him, trying to keep my composure.“I don’t know what you’re talking about,” I said firmly. “I’m Valeria Blackthorn. The Nightshades are… they’re dead. The royal family was wiped out… the Alpha King and his entire bloodline.”Malachai’s lips curled into a smile, dark and knowing. His eyes, gleaming with amusement, seemed to pierce through me. “Is that what you think?” he asked, his voice low and mocking. “Do you really think that’s the whole story? Or do you just believe whatever you’ve been fed by those around you?”I clenched my jaw, resisting the urge to snap at him. His arrogance grated on my nerves, but there was something else there, something unsettling, as if he knew more than I could comprehend. He was toying with me, playing on the doubts that had alread

Valeria The moon hung high in the sky, casting a silver glow over the forest as I shifted into my wolf form, my fur rippling under the cool night breeze. The events of the day weighed heavily on me… Mikaela’s incessant jabs, the constant whispers of doubt from those around me, and the looming threat of Malachai’s words still echoing in my mind. I needed space, a moment to breathe away from all of it.The ground beneath my paws was soft, the familiar earth giving me comfort as I ran through the woods. The wind rushed past me, and for a brief moment, I felt free… free of expectations, of doubt, of the burdens that had been placed upon me. It was just me and the wild, a part of me that no one could take away. But as much as I wanted to lose myself in the peace of the night, something in the air felt off, like the shadows themselves were watching.Suddenly, I caught a scent. It was faint at first but unmistakable, Malachai. A low growl rumbled from deep within my chest as I slowed my pac

Valeria The trek back to the packhouse was slow and heavy, my limbs aching with fatigue after the confrontation with Malachai. The adrenaline that had kept me going now seeped away, leaving me drained, both physically and mentally. His threat echoed in my mind, and no matter how hard I tried to push it away, I couldn’t shake the dread creeping into my chest.When I reached the packhouse, the familiar stone walls no longer felt as safe as they once had. The night was still, but it was the kind of stillness that promised a storm. I walked through the doors, the weight of Malachai’s words pressing on my shoulders. His admission of killing the Alpha King and his family played over in my head. The horror of it, the cruelty, was something I couldn’t comprehend. And his determination to destroy me—destroy everything—made it worse.As soon as I entered the main hall, I caught sight of Kade standing near the fireplace, speaking quietly with Callan, his beta. Their faces were drawn, concern ev

ValeriaThe first sign of trouble came with a gust of wind that sent a shiver down my spine, colder than any breeze I’d felt before. I was standing by the window, watching the patrols make their rounds just outside the packhouse. The doubled defenses Kade had ordered were in place, and everyone was on high alert, but somehow, it didn’t feel like enough. There was an undercurrent of unease, a feeling that something was brewing just beneath the surface, waiting to strike.I had barely turned away from the window when the attack began.The ground trembled beneath my feet, a low rumble that quickly escalated into a violent quake. The air filled with a thick, oppressive energy, the kind that made it hard to breathe, as if the very atmosphere had shifted under Malachai’s dark influence. I raced toward the door, my heart pounding in my chest. I knew without a doubt that this was him—Malachai had come.Shouts and snarls erupted outside, and as I threw open the door, I saw chaos unfold before

Valeria The next morning, I awoke to the sound of soft murmurs outside my room. My body ached from the events of the previous day, and my mind was no better—rattled by the lingering darkness of Malachai’s attack and his chilling threats. I dragged myself out of bed, feeling like a weight had settled on my chest, making it hard to breathe, let alone think clearly.As I made my way downstairs, I found Kade, already deep in conversation with his beta, Callan. They were discussing last night’s defenses and the extent of the damage Malachai had caused. But before I could ask any questions, the doors to the packhouse opened, and Jeric walked in, followed closely by Rylan and Aiden.Their presence brought a sense of relief and anxiety all at once. Aiden’s eyes found mine instantly, his face a mixture of concern and frustration, while Rylan looked equally tense. The tension in the room shifted the moment they entered, like everyone was waiting for something to happen.Aiden was the first to

Valeria The night we left Shadowfang, the air was thick with tension. Aiden and I rode in silence for a while, the dark woods surrounding us like a veil, hiding the uncertainty of what was to come. I could feel Aiden’s eyes on me now and then, checking on me, probably trying to gauge how I was feeling, but I didn’t have the energy to offer much.My mind was spinning with thoughts of Kade and his pack—left behind to deal with whatever hell Malachai would undoubtedly unleash.Every time I closed my eyes, I saw Kade standing at the entrance of the packhouse, his strong silhouette illuminated by the dim light from inside. He had tried to be strong, assuring me that everything would be fine, that he and Callan would handle things. But I knew better. I knew that leaving them behind meant putting them in more danger than ever before.“Aiden,” I finally broke the silence, my voice barely above a whisper, “do you really think leaving was the right choice?”He glanced at me, his brow furrowing

Luna Awakening: Claimed By Her Three Alphas 170
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
Luna Awakening: Claimed By Her Three Alphas 168
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
Luna Awakening: Claimed By Her Three Alphas 167
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
Luna Awakening: Claimed By Her Three Alphas 163
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
