Seraphina sat beside Theo, cradling his head in her lap, her hands trembling as they gently pressed against the deep gashes on his side. The blood had slowed, but the damage was done—he’d taken the brunt of her fury, trying to hold her back, trying to keep her from doing what she didn’t even fully understand.

She could still feel the rage pulsing beneath her skin, the animal urges lingering just under the surface, like a fire waiting to reignite. But now, in the quiet aftermath, the wolf was silent, retreating into the corners of her mind. Maybe it was just as afraid of what had happened as she was.

Her throat tightened as she looked down at him, her heart heavy with guilt.

Theo’s breathing was shallow, but he was alive. The worst of the wounds were already closing—he was healing faster than a normal human ever could. That was the thing about being a werewolf: even in the worst of pain, the body had a way of mending itself, the blood flowing in ways that humans couldn’t understand. Bu

    The moon hung high above the forest, casting a cold light over the clearing where Seraphina and Theo sat. The rest of the pack had gathered in a loose circle around them, their eyes fixed on Kiera. She could feel their gazes, weighted with understanding, confusion, and something else—something she hadn’t expected.Acceptance.Grayson stepped forward first, his large frame casting a shadow over the group. He was the pack’s enforcer, the one who kept the peace and upheld the rules. But as he looked at Seraphina, his expression softened, and for the first time, she saw a flicker of something human behind the stoic mask he wore so well.“Seraphina,” he said, his voice deep and measured, “this isn’t easy. But you don’t have to carry this burden alone. None of us do.”Her chest tightened at the words, the weight of everything she’d been hiding pressing down on her once more. She had never truly allowed herself to be part of the pack, not in the way that Theo had asked. She had always kept a

    Few days later “Alpha” A voice called Luca from behind, he turned back and glared at the person, it was no other person but Nova.Nova knew where he was but kept it hidden from a lot of people in the pack, ever since Theo, Luca's brother arrived the pack hasn't been the same anymore and Nova? Her loyalty still lies with Luca.“How is Seraphina?” Luca asked.There was a pause at Novas's side. The moonlight slashed through the trees, casting long shadows on the ground. A tense silence hung in the air like the calm before a storm. Nova stood at the edge of the forest, her breath shallow, her heart a battleground of conflicting emotions. In the distance, the pack’s border stretched before her like an unbreachable wall. Luca, the Alpha, stood there, his face a mask of silent anguish, torn between loyalty to his pack and a love he could no longer reach.“Seraphina is becoming stronger,” Nova said, her voice thick with unease. She could see the pain in Luca’s eyes as he stared into the vast

    The forest trembled under the force of the two wolves as they clashed, their bodies ripping through the underbrush, fury and primal instinct dictating every movement. Luca’s golden eyes burned with the fury of an Alpha scorned, his wolf form radiating power as he lunged at Theo with a snarl that echoed through the trees. Theo, equally transformed, met him with a vicious growl, his eyes dark with hatred, his massive frame a perfect blend of strength and malice.Their claws scraped against each other’s fur, sending sparks of aggression into the air. Teeth collided with raw, unbridled violence as the two brothers,the Alpha and his brother Theo—fought not just for control of the pack, but for the soul of everything they once shared. For Seraphina a Luna.Luca’s teeth sunk into Theo’s shoulder, ripping through the fur and flesh with a ferocity born of desperation. Theo let out a guttural roar, his powerful hind legs bucking and sending Luca sprawling. But Luca was quick, rolling to his fee

    Luca stormed into the mansion, his bloody clothes a stark contrast to the lavish decor. The scent of pine and smoke filled his nostrils. Every step felt heavy, weighed down by the battle's aftermath ,the bloodshed, loss, and betrayal that had been eating away at him.Nova walked beside him, her expression unreadable. He could feel her eyes on him, could sense the way she watched him, as if trying to gauge what he would do next. She had always been difficult to read, but tonight, her silence felt like a quiet condemnation. She wasn’t one to hold back her words when she wanted to make a point.“You know this isn’t going to be easy,” she said quietly, her voice edged with a knowing sorrow. “She won’t remember you. Not the way you remember her,she has been bewitched by Theo.”Luca didn’t reply immediately. His gaze was fixed ahead, his eyes searching the crowd of pack members who had gathered in the grand hall. He was Alpha, or at least he used to be, and now he was here, walking back int

    The mansion was eerily quiet after the healer had finished tending to Luca’s wound. His side throbbed beneath the bandages, a constant reminder of his lost battle, of the fight that had only ended in failure. Even now, as the pain ebbed and flowed, his mind raced—replayed every moment of the fight with Theo, every glance exchanged between Seraphina and his brother, and the crushing finality in Seraphina’s indifference to him.He sat on the edge of his bed, the cool air of the room surrounding him like an invisible wall. His heart was still heavy, the weight of the evening’s events sinking deeper with each passing second.He could hear Nova’s soft footsteps approaching. She always moved with a quiet grace, but tonight, there was something in her presence that made Luca uneasy—something both comforting and unsettling. She had always been there, a shadow in his life, loyal and dependable—until now.Luca didn’t turn when she entered. Instead, he kept his gaze focused on the moonlight that

    Seraphina entered Theo's quarters and she saw him changing his clothes, she saw the clothes which were on the floor filled with blood. “How did this happen?” She said silently but Theo didnt listen, as she gently picked up the dress with a tip of her finger, she smelled it and she noticed that it wasn't just ordinary blood, it was the blood of a wolf. The scent of the blood hung in the air, sharp and metallic. Seraphina’s eyes narrowed as she stepped closer, dropping the cloth she had been using to clean up the remnants of Theo’s injury. His wound was still fresh, though the bleeding had stopped, and her mind raced with too many questions. How did Theo, a seasoned fighter, get injured by a wolf? It didn’t make sense.Her heart pounded as she met his gaze, trying to unravel the layers of lies she knew he was wrapping around himself.“How did you get injured by a wolf?” Seraphina’s voice was steady, but beneath the calm, there was a simmering anger.Theo, lying through his teeth, glanc

    The tension in the room was suffocating. The door closed behind him with a quiet click, and Seraphina didn’t need to look to know it was Theo standing there. His presence filled the space like a storm, electric and overwhelming. Her body was taut with anger, muscles coiled tight under the surface, and her thoughts churned like a maelstrom. She had been locked in this room for too long, the walls closing in on her, her instincts screaming for release.Her eyes flicked toward him, and the moment their gazes met, she felt the shift. It was subtle at first — a tightening in her chest, a sharp pull at her throat. She could feel the hunger rising within her.The thirst.Her blood was boiling, her senses heightened to an unbearable degree. She could feel every shift in the air, the rapid beat of Theo’s heart, the slight increase in his breath as he moved toward her. And then, without warning, his hand shot out, grabbing her by the wrist, yanking her toward him with surprising force.The mome

    The thick scent of pine and earth filled the air as Seraphina entered the grand hall, flanked by Theo. She could feel the eyes on her the moment she stepped inside — cold, assessing, and full of anticipation. The hall was dimly lit, candles casting shadows that stretched across the stone walls. The meeting was about to begin, a pivotal moment for the entire pack. This was no ordinary gathering.Today, they would decide who would rule the pack. The tension in the air was palpable, and Seraphina could sense the brewing storm of conflict.Theo, walking beside her, exuded the confidence of someone who thought the crown was his for the taking. His posture was tall, his expression regal. He didn’t bother to hide the smirk playing at the corner of his lips. She knew him well enough by now to recognize the flicker of arrogance in his eyes. His supporters, scattered throughout the room, waited for the inevitable: Theo would be crowned the new Alpha.But Seraphina didn’t feel that certainty wit

    The wind howled through the dense forest, rustling the trees as dawn broke over the horizon. The sky bled shades of orange and pink, casting a golden glow over the dewdrops clinging to the grass.Seraphina sat by the riverbank, her knees drawn to her chest, watching the water ripple against the stones. Her fingers absently traced the curve of her stomach, a slow, steady smile forming on her lips.She had felt it—faint but unmistakable.Life.Her pup.Their pup.Kael’s scent drifted toward her before she heard his footsteps. He was cautious, quiet, still not used to approaching her without expecting a fight. But this was different.She turned before he could speak, her golden eyes locking onto his.Kael froze. “You’re smiling.” His voice was wary, laced with disbelief.Seraphina exhaled a soft laugh, shaking her head. “That’s a normal thing, you know.”Kael arched a brow. “Not for you.”Her smile widened. “Maybe that’s changing.”Something in his expression shifted—uncertainty melting

    The forest was alive with whispers.The wind rustled through the trees, carrying the scent of damp earth and distant rain. My breath came fast, my pulse still erratic from our escape. Every step sent a sharp ache through my ribs, but I didn’t stop. Couldn’t stop.Kael moved beside me, his presence steady, his gaze sharp. He didn’t speak, but I could feel the weight of his thoughts pressing between us.We had escaped Varian. For now. But that didn’t mean we were safe.I glanced at Kael, his face half-lit by the rising sun. His jaw was tight, his movements tense. He wasn’t used to running—at least, not like this.“We need to find shelter,” he said finally, breaking the silence.I frowned. “Shelter? You realize we don’t have the luxury of stopping, right?”“You’re injured.”“I’m fine.”He shot me a look. “You were half-conscious five minutes ago.”I rolled my eyes. “I was dramatic five minutes ago.”Kael exhaled sharply, muttering something under his breath. “Stubborn.”I smirked. “You j

    The first thing I noticed was the cold.It seeped into my bones, numbing the pain in my side where Kael’s blade had struck. My wrists ached from the silver shackles, burning against my skin. My head throbbed from whatever magic had knocked me out.But I was alive.Unfortunate for them.I cracked my eyes open, blinking against the dim torchlight. The stone walls around me were damp, lined with old runes that pulsed faintly. A prison.Footsteps echoed.I turned my head, forcing myself to stay still as the cell door creaked open.Kael stepped inside first. Behind him, Varian followed, moving like a king surveying his kingdom. His sharp, golden eyes locked onto me, filled with something dangerous.“You don’t look as dead as I expected,” Varian mused.I bared my teeth. “Disappointed?”Kael exhaled, rubbing the bridge of his nose like he had a headache. “Can we skip the part where you antagonize the person who holds your life in his hands?”I grinned. “Where’s the fun in that?”Varian chuckl

    ---Seraphina’s POVThe corridor was cold, damp, and far too quiet. My breath came in short bursts, my body screaming in protest with every step. But I moved, ignoring the sharp throb in my side. Mara was right behind me, her footsteps light but hurried.Kael led the way, moving like a shadow—quick, precise, eerily calm. He knew exactly where we were going. That should have reassured me. It didn’t.Mara leaned in, her voice barely a whisper. “Tell me again why we’re not stabbing him and running?”Kael didn’t even bother looking back. “Because I have the keys, and you don’t.”Mara made a face. “Smug bastard.”“Yeah,” I muttered. “That’s his whole thing.”Kael suddenly halted, pressing a hand to my stomach to stop me. Pain flared through my ribs, sharp enough to make me suck in a breath. He glanced at me—too quickly, too full of something dangerously close to concern—before shifting his attention forward.“Guards,” he murmured.Mara tensed. “How many?”“Two. Armed.”I exhaled through my

    SeraphinaPain.That was the first thing I registered when I surfaced from the darkness. A deep, burning agony in my side, pulsing with every shallow breath I took. It was a constant, throbbing ache, reminding me that I was still alive. Unfortunately.The second thing was voices. Low, distant murmurs threading through my hazy thoughts.“…should have been more careful.”“I got the shot in, didn’t I?”“You nearly killed her.”“She’ll live.”Their words floated around me, barely registering through the fog of pain and exhaustion. My head lolled to the side, and I forced my eyes open, blinking against the dim torchlight. The room was blurry at first—just dark stone walls, shadows flickering across the damp floor.I shifted, or tried to. Something heavy and cold bit into my wrists and ankles. Chains.Well, that wasn’t good.I exhaled sharply, my throat dry and raw. “If you’re done talking about me like I’m not here, maybe one of you could be polite enough to tell me where the hell I am?”T

    ---“You’re bleeding.”I blinked, my vision still swimming from the exhaustion. Luca’s face hovered in front of mine, his brows furrowed.“It’s not my blood,” I muttered, wiping at my forehead and smearing more of the crimson mess across my skin.Mara snorted. “Yeah, that’s comforting.”Luca didn’t look amused. “You need to rest.”“I need to get out of here,” I shot back. “Then I’ll rest.”His jaw clenched. “Seraphina—”“Don’t start.” I pushed past him, ignoring the way my limbs screamed in protest. The Raven Clan was still behind us, and standing around debating my health wasn’t going to keep us alive.We moved in silence, our steps quick but cautious as we wove through the thick forest. The sounds of pursuit had faded, but that meant nothing. The Raven Clan didn’t make mistakes. If they weren’t right on our heels, it was because they wanted us to think we were safe.And I wasn’t about to fall for it.“Do you think they’ve given up?” Mara asked quietly.I scoffed. “Have they ever giv

    She walked with them as they stepped outside. Seraphina’s vision blurred as the adrenaline that had fueled her through the fight began to drain from her body. The cool night air was a shock to her system, and the faint scent of damp earth and smoke filled her lungs. The battle had ended, but her own war was far from over.Luca didn’t slow down. His grip on her was firm, and though she was barely conscious, she could feel his resolve. He wasn’t going to let her fall behind, not now, not when they were so close to freedom. He kept moving, his warriors at his side, sweeping the area as they made their way toward the hidden exit from the compound.“I’m sorry, Luna,” Mara’s voice came from beside them, soft but filled with concern. “We didn’t—”“Don’t apologize,” Seraphina cut her off, her voice hoarse. “You did your part. All of you did.”Luca’s pace quickened. The sound of pursuit wasn’t far behind, but he was determined to get them out of the Raven Clan's grasp. The distant echoes of th

    “We need to move,” she said, her tone urgent. She looked at the wounded scouts. “Can you fight?”One of the scouts, a woman named Mara, nodded, her face grim but resolute. “We’ll follow your lead, Luna.”Seraphina nodded once, then turned to the rest of her team. “We’re heading for the exit. Keep your eyes open. The Raven Clan won’t just let us walk out of here.”They moved quickly through the hallways, but the further they went, the more the tension in the air thickened. The sound of distant shouting reached their ears—someone had discovered the break-in."Stay close!" Seraphina commanded, her voice firm. “We’re not out of this yet.”Suddenly, a loud crash echoed through the corridors, followed by the rapid pounding of feet. More guards were coming.Seraphina’s warriors formed a defensive line in front of her, weapons drawn, ready for the fight. She could feel the pressure mounting, but she refused to let it show. Not now. Not when they were so close.“Luna, we can’t keep them at bay

    Luca’s eyes narrowed as he weighed the situation. "We can't just rush in blindly, Seraphina. The mountains are treacherous, and if the Raven Clan has set up defenses—""We don’t have time for caution," Seraphina interrupted, her voice low and sharp. "Those scouts are counting on us. Every minute we waste, they’re one step closer to death."Luca clenched his jaw but didn’t argue. He understood the urgency just as well as she did. “Fine,” he said. “We’ll go in prepared. But we need reinforcements. And a strategy.”“I’ll lead a smaller group,” Seraphina suggested, her eyes flashing with determination. “We’ll move quickly, hit them hard. You stay back with the main force. If anything goes wrong, we’ll need you to coordinate the backup.”Luca hesitated for a moment, clearly torn. But in the end, he nodded. “I don’t like it, but I know you won’t back down.” He placed a hand on her shoulder, his grip firm, his gaze unwavering. “Just come back to me.”Seraphina looked up at him, her expressio
