Katrina’s point of viewHe led the way through the crowd as everyone stared at me. My eyes roamed around, spotting the pit fire in the middle of the camp with the men and women around it.He opened the tent for me to walk in and I lowered my head slightly.I walked into his command tent and was immediately choked by the powerful smell of blood. I tried to hold it in as he led the way.“Damn, this stinks’ Sage remarked.“Well, this is war. People are injured every minute so nothing surprises me’ “It stinks.’ She complains.“This is where you and I should be. You need to toughen up,’ I retorted, my eyes searching and on guard.“No, thank you. Give him his report and get me out of here’ The tent was sparsely decorated and furnished, with bloody bandages and scattered pills everywhere. There was an enormous map on the table. This is the battlefield.It looked very deserted, like a mobile bed on the move, without any trace of home. My eye roamed all over the room but he just stood ther
Katrina’s point of view“You are not the only one in business with Silverfox.”“When I was still a child, I used to go to the Silverfox Pack, where I heard about a very naughty but also very talented little girl called Kat. Everyone at Silverfox spoke highly of her, and she was the one doing all the tricks. Was that you?”I wanted to cry the moment I heard it.“He heard about us?’ Sage asked, raising one of her thick browsSince the tragedy, I was no longer the girl who could do whatever she wanted thanks to the support of her family.“I am not sure. Kat is a very common name, and I'm sure Silverfox has many little girls named Kat.” I retorted,He holds my gaze, but I am the first to look away. My knees are giving in and my eyes are heavy.After five days of non-stop travelling, I was a little tired and felt my legs go weak.I was about to fall to the side, but Lucius caught me before I hit the ground. That was fast. My eyes widened as I looked into his eyes.My heart races when I’m
Cassian’s point of viewTwo months later, Alpha King’s Pack HouseLooking up from my work, something crosses my mind that it’s been quiet the last few months from Katrina after she was taken back to her pack, Snow.I asked Ryan my beta, “Has Luna Katrina made any recent moves?”Beta stifled a smirk and teased me. “If you want to know, you can ask her yourself. Last time I checked, your legs are free.”I scoffed, shaking my head. She's never serious about anything. Of course, I want to know how she is doing, but I just can’t show up on her doorstep to check how she is.“I don’t want to know if she’s fine. Just want to know if she’s still going about making accusations,” I retorted,Lies. Those were lies.I wanted to know how she was doing. I needed to know that she was safe.“Well, no report has come from the men there. It seems everything is normal” he doesn’t look up from his book, which he seems to be buried in these days.Maybe I was too harsh on her, but she shouldn’t have lied li
Xavier’s Point of ViewI’m going to war again. It’s something I thought we would stay away from in our first year of marriage.Katrina had to offer herself to go to Crescent Pack.We still tremble at the pressure of Alpha King’s rage. The man has a way of instilling fear into you that you just can’t help but submit. His aura is just too powerful. Bianca was still immersed in the excitement. Her eyes are full of anticipation for war. I know she has always been born for war, and she is only at her best on the battlefield.I knew from the first moment I saw her on the battlefield that I would never find another she-wolf like her.She was the one for me.She hasn’t stopped taking tactics and what we need since we stepped out of that office. She has everything planned out.This is what I love about her. Once she is going to battle. She becomes this badass who will not let anything stop her.She was so perfect for me.After we left the Pack House, I stopped Bianca, who had been giving me t
Katrina’s point of viewThe wolves fought in the night, and we won again.It had been a long night, but we finally could come out victoriousOne warrior asked me in awe, “Kat, how many wolves did you get?”I said, “Too many to count.” Trying to stretch my arms, my shoulder was aching from that awkward fall I made on it earlier.“Ninety-eight.’ Sage added.“Keeping count now?’ I asked her, trying to catch my breath.“Well, you need a hundred one of these days.’ She added.One of them handed me a bottle of water, and the other young men made some noise. Handing each other some notes.I’m sure it was a bet they had made about my response, which was always my answer after a long night. I looked at the young boy in front of me, who had just come of age, and took it. I open it, gulping down everything in one go.I concealed my identity and joined the squad I’m in now. To them, I’m no longer Luna or Katrina, just Kat.It wasn’t easy at first trying to take orders from someone, but I’m slow
Cassian’s point of viewRyan, my Beta, said excitedly, “Kat is truly the daughter of Alpha Snow! Katrina even burned the supplies of the Crescent Pack with a small team!”I finally smiled as I read the report sent to me by Lucius. A smile tugs on my lips just thinking of what she has managed to do in the little time she has been there.I was furious when I found out a few days ago that she had slipped past the security that Ryan had sent over. Makes me wonder how she could slip past them.“Have Lucius informed her? From now on, she is an official warrior in the army, a first-class captain. Once she helps Lucius banish the Crescent Pack from the south, she will be promoted to full Pack warrior.” I instructed Ryan,I remember that she was always different from the girls I met. From Jamie’s personality, he was calm and careful in everything he did. Ever caused any problems for anyone but Katrina? She has always been trouble.I remember the first time I saw her. I had visited Jamie for t
Lucius’s point of viewThe past few weeks have been surprisingly different from everything that has been happening. Katrina has proven to be more useful than I expected, but I still don’t trust her motives for coming here.“I’m thinking we send over someone to just check the situation on the south,” Noah, my second, suggested, pointing at the map.We were in the pack camp, discussing the strategic plan for the next week. “Perhaps if we sent our scouts to first access. With a day’s ride they might get there and back” Katrina suggested, clearly calculating.She shouldn’t be here. She should be far away from this just like how her mother wanted, but she was here leading a team.“I can’t believe we still haven’t claimed her as ours’ my wolf hissed, making me roll my eyes.“Zane, I have made it clear. Her mother said no.’“Fuck that. She won’t stop us’ He retorted, a smirk on his face.“No! We respect her wishes. And don’t try to fucking claim her without my consent,’ I added.The past few
Katrina’s point of view “Oh no, it’s Xavier! We have to hide!’ My wolf sage was the first to pick up the scent. My heart pounds hard as I try to find a way out of here.There’s only one exit out of here.“We shouldn’t be hiding from them. They wronged us’ Sage insists, but without thinking twice, I spot the guys in the corner.I quickly hid, and even though Lucius looked at me several times, I had no intention of coming out. Lucius glances at me, his eyes narrowing, but I don’t care. I will have to explain to him later about this.He would throw a fit, but I’m fine with it. At least I don’t have to deal with Xavier.He eyes me with a raised brow but does my best to avoid making eye contact with him. He will use this against me. No doubt.For now, I was going to avoid any confrontations with him and Bianca. Lucius gestures for me with his head to join him, but I decided against it.“Can I kill them?’ Sage asked me, her voice calm, but I know she is furious.“Not now Sage, We need to
Lucius’s point of viewI am running late. My phone battery is dead. I forgot to charge it.Fuck.Why did this have to happen today? I checked my wristwatch, and it was half past six. The fucking meeting keeps on going on and on.As Cassian went on about security, my mind kept drifting to Katrina. The thought of her waiting for me made my heart ache.Why did I agree to this meeting? Katrina deserves better. I should be there with her, not stuck here.“Good. Lucius, anything to add?” he asks me, and I shake my head.The asshole acts like he knew I am going on a date with Katrina and trying to stop me. It took everything in me to ask her out despite the circumstances, and on our first date. I am late.What does that make me?‘A man trying his best to juggle so many balls,’ Zane growls‘Yes. But Katrina should come first above everything else. She shouldn’t even be among the balls I am juggling,’ I growl as I tilt my head while they discuss finance.With every passing minute, I felt the w
Katrina’s Point of View“You wanted to see me?” I ask Lucius later in the day when I head over to his office. He seems so busy scribbling something in his document.He stops his scribbling and watches me as soon as he hears my voice. His eyes trail from my boots and then go up to my face.I decided to wear my official uniform today: black trousers with several pockets, a black T-shirt, and a black jacket, the sleeves of which, of course, have my ranks.Three on the left and three on the right. The first one is the crest of my house, then the second is when I was made captain, then the third for deputy commander. I skipped some ranks, hence why I have three instead of five.I should have been a lieutenant, major and then deputy commander“Why do you love black?” He asks me, and I raise my eyebrows. The good part is that without uniforms, you can choose whatever colour you want as long as the colour of your uniform and sleeveless are correct. In my case, I settled for black with gold an
Lucius’s Point of View“So, you and Katrina?” Noah asked me as we sparred in the gym. I threw a punch, and he ducked before throwing his own and landing in my ribs.“Don’t you know how to mind your own fucking business?” I growled before throwing a kick at him and blocking it.“I can’t mind my own business if every time I am around you, you have her scent on you> No wonder Cassian is pissed,” He growls, putting more effort into his punches but I throw a punch just missing his jaw by a fraction.“I don’t care what everyone thinks. My business with her is between the two of us,” I say, doing an ankle sweep, and he falls to the ground, lying on his back.I put my boot on his neck, a smile spread on my lips. “Too predictable”“Yeah. Yes. We know” he pushes my foot away and smirks before coming closer to where I am standing.“People are worried. It might not be their business, but you know a Snow can’t marry into royalty, so why are you forcing this?” he asks me, wiping his face and neck.
Bianca’s point of view“Did you do it?” Xavier barged into my room as I applied concealer to my scars, which were now healing.“I don’t know what you are talking about” I replied reluctantly, turning my head left and right to check how I had done with the makeup.Maybe the concealer? To hide the scars. Misty was still weak, and the damage was already done, so there was no point in trying to fix it anymore.He slapped the bottle of concealer so hard everything spilt to the ground. I lifted my gaze, clenching my fists tight.“What the hell is wrong with you?” I snapped.He grabbed me by my arm, his nails digging deep into my skin as I looked into his eyes.“What is wrong with you?”“I didn’t do anything!” I snapped, pulling out my hand from his grip, but he pulled me back, making me hit me in his chest.My eyes met with his and those eyes that looked at me with so much love and desire were just filled with—hatred and disgust.“Xavier stop. You are hurting me” I complained, and he cont
Katrina’s Point of View“You have been quiet” Becky says the following day in the evening when she joins me in the living room where I am sprawled on the couch with my hands under my head while I watch the latest episode of my favourite series.She plops down on the couch, her eyes still on me as I close my eyes, shaking my head. Then shifted my attention back to the TV.“Is everything okay between you and the commander?” She tells me as I inhale sharply.Turning my attention to her. I would love to talk about everything happening with someone, but I am not sure she is the right person I should be talking to.“It is nothing. Pretty sure, just exhausted” I force a smile, and she nods her head, just staring at me without saying anything.I shift about to grab my stuff so that I can rest in my bedroom.“You do not have to leave because of me. I can go” she says grabbing her things and about to stand up and I stare at her.I have never been good at discussing my problems with anyone. But
Katrina’s point of viewOnce we get back in the car, Lucius does not say anything but drives back to the house. “Get some rest. I will pass through later” he says to me as I purse my lips together, thinking of what he said earlier to me.“I will quickly change. I want to be in that meeting,” I say getting out of the car. “Kat, wait. You do not have to come with me”“I know more about Dark Wolves than you think. Give me a minute” before he can even say no., I rush into the house heading straight to my room.I throw Joshua’s clothes on the bed and pull on black baggy jeans and a t-shirt before rushing out of the room.“Kat” Bray Calls before I can leave.“Not now, Bray” I throw over my shoulder, wanting to walk away, but Joshua and Taylor are behind him.“Please, Katrina. Let me at least say something” He pleads as I sigh heavily, crossing my hands over my chest.“Yes?”I was tired of all of this and just wanted to get rid of everything and then move on back to my pack.Now I understand
Katrina’s Point of View“Kat, wait!” Lucius prevented me from following the car, but my friends were in it. I saw them drive by a few minutes ago.“Kat, Calm down. I just linked to Noah. They are fine” he assured me, as I turned to look at him, tears streaming down my cheeks.I do not think I can handle losing any more people. Especially those three. I shook my head as he held my hands tight.“There! They got out” he pointed behind me and I snapped my head towards the car and Joshua and Becky with Bray were walking out of the car towards us.“Wait, did you just call me friend?” Joshua’s sarcastic voice came as I rolled my eyes. Wiping my tears, I peeled myself from Lucius, turning to look at Bray, who looked like he had just seen a ghost.Well, he did just cheat death.“I didn’t say that”“Guys, she just said we are her friends. Friends to the mighty Katrina Snow,” He laughed, coming closer to me as I sighed heavily, shaking my head.“What the hell happened?” Lucius’s voice snapped at
Lucius’s point of view“What did he want?” I ask Katrina as soon as she gets in the car. She looks out the window and then shakes her head.“Kat. You are many things but a good liar? Don’t think so” I turn to her, and she sighs heavily, turning to look at me.“Did you know?”I furrow my eyebrows, wondering what she is talking about. “Know what?”“What’s this Lucius? Your way of having fun? Does it make you powerful knowing that among the three it’s you I... I...” she stutters.“The three? I thought it was only me and the king” I smile, and she just stares at me, about to get out of the car, and I grab her hand pulling her back into the car.“I didn’t know I was in a competition” I state, and she just stares at me.“And I didn’t know I was in a fucking game. Can we just go? I have to check on Bray today” she growls looking out the window. I start the car driving away without saying anything.When we get to the borderlands. I pull over and get out. Noah and other people have already arr
Katrina’s point of viewThe next morning, I had my morning run, and once I was back. I had my shower and got into my jeans and sneakers with an oversized T-shirt.“Hey, Becky?” I shouted after coming out of the bedroom, braiding my hair into a single braid.“Good morning” she beamed with a smile as I shook my head. Getting closer to her.“you said something about a snow not marrying into royalty. What was that about?” I asked her and she glanced at Joshua, who was sitting by the countertop.“Didn’t you learn this during your high school days?” She asked me, as I faked a smile.“No. I skipped high school,” I lied.“Really? I thought you used to go to that boarding school in Silver Fox,” Joshua says as I force a smile.“Don’t believe everything you hear, Joshua.” I say when my phone chimes. My alarm reminds me that I am late for my meeting.“Let’s chat later, okay?” I wave at her before running out of the house. I need to go to the Alpha King’s library and check for myself.Once I get t
