~Cana’s POV:

“How are you, Davis?”

I asked as I, along with Talia and Zane, walked into the medical wing, heading towards the bed where the younger boy lay.

He had been playing with some Lego toys, but the moment he heard his name, his head snapped up and his entire demeanor brightened.

“Lady Cana!” He called out, happily.

I smiled, relieved that the illness had not dampened his bright personality. I could tell Talia was feeling the same way because of how heavily she sighed.

“Hey little one, how are you?” I asked.

“Better,” He said and turned to Zane, waving his small hands in the air. “Hello, Alpha!”

“Hey Champ, how are you holding up?”

“I’m okay, Alpha. The nurse gave me food, and I’m getting better.”

“That’s good to hear,” Zane smiled. “Keep getting better, okay? So you don’t worry your sister too much.”

Talia’s eyes softened, and she smiled, mouthing a ‘Thank You.’

I smiled at the interaction, before walking closer to Davis and running a hand through his hair.

    ~Cana’s POV:Cassandra stormed into the kitchen and without an ounce of hesitation, she gripped my upper arm, nails purposefully digging into my skin as she yanked me away from the biscuit. I hissed in pain and glared at her. “Are you crazy?” My question stunned her, I could tell. Perhaps, she had expected the Cana who had tucked tails between her legs and ran, the one she was used to seeing, but no, today, she wasn’t dealing with that Cana.“You,” She began as soon as the surprise wore off. Her words were followed by a disbelieving scoff and then a smirk. “You rude bitch, how dare you talk to me that way?” She yanked on my hand once again, as if to prove a point in her next words. “Who do you think you are in this pack? A rouge thing like you dare open her mouth and disrespect me?”“And who are you that I shouldn’t disrespect?” Saying this, I yanked my hand free. “I’d behave if I were you, Cassandra, this isn’t Ivy’s playground. Look around and stop acting like a spoilt brat who ca

    ~Cana’s POV:“Indigestion?” I asked Doctor Maria based on what she had just told me. The Doctor nodded her head, but her attention remained on the bruise on my ankle. “Zane has always been a powerful Alpha since birth, unfortunately, his body couldn’t handle the amount of pheromone, hence the indigestion.” She examined the bruise once more and frowned, but I was too worried by what I had just heard to pay attention to whether her frowning was a bad or good thing. Zane had pheromone indigestion? For many people, it was a sign of showing the Alpha was strong, but I saw this as a means of silent suffering. Not only would the alpha constantly fall sick because his body can’t control the amount of pheromones it produces, but they also have a hard time shifting into their wolf form, because of the overflow.Pheromones were essential for an Alpha to shift, and the more a person produced, the easier shifting became.The only solution was for Zane to constantly take suppressants, and a lo

    ~Cana’s POV:Zane’s kiss was hungry and greedy, engulfing me like a fire burning out of control.It was a kiss that took the breath away from my lungs, caused my brain to short-circuit, and had the heat pooling in my stomach spread out.I had never been kissed so passionately, or even been kissed like this before.The sensation was intoxicating and I couldn’t bring myself to stop it.When his tongue brushed against the seam of my lips, I was hesitant, but I couldn’t deny him, coupled with the compelling scent of his pheromones, it was hard not to get swallowed by him. The kiss lasted only a few seconds before it was broken, and Zane pulled back, a string of saliva connecting our lips, but before it could break, he leaned forward, licking my lips and making me shudder.He pulled back, his gaze fixed on mine.I wasn’t sure what to make of his actions, but the fact that the kiss had taken my breath away was enough to let me know that he wasn’t planning on letting me go.“Cana,” His voic

    ~Cana’s POV:The bed was empty when I woke. Zane was nowhere to be seen and the scent of his pheromones had reduced, dwindling to its normal state.I stretched and was about to get up when the door was pulled open, and Leah came walking in, a tray in her hands and a worried expression on her face.“Lady Cana, are you okay?” She rushed to ask, placing the tray on the nightstand.I didn’t say anything, confused by her actions, but scrambled into a sitting position, hoping she didn’t think bad about seeing me lying in Zane’s bed. “Why wouldn’t I be okay?” I managed to ask once I had sat up. Leah hesitated and bit her lower lip, a habit I had noticed she had whenever she was nervous.“Well,” She started, wringing her hands together. “I-I don’t know, the Alpha…he, didn’t do anything to you, did he?”The confusion I felt slowly melted away and I smiled, silently appreciating her care and worry for me. “No, Leah, he didn’t.” I beckoned her over and when she was close enough, asked. “So yo

    ~Cana’s POV: I turned around to see Callahan, Sheila, and Lionel standing behind me. The first two had their hands folded, a glare present on their faces as they stared at the scene before them, While Lionel, well, his expression, for once, was unreadable. But I was damn sure, with Cassandra’s convincing act, looking the most pitiful and terrified I had ever seen her, he was buying it. “What do you think you’re doing, Cana?” Callahan repeated, his voice dripping with venom. “Do you think just because the Alpha has taken pity on you, you can bully members of this pack?” Saying this, he gestured for Sheila to go to Cassandra. She did so, violently brushing shoulders with me as she walked past. She knelt beside Cassandra, taking her hands in her as she questioned. “Are you okay? What happened?” Her voice sounded so tender that I would have mistaken her for a good person if she hadn’t picked on me several times in the past few days. Cassandra, being the good actress I only jus

    ~Cana’s POV:Less than an hour later, Lionel took the initiative to see to it that I was walked back and left within the comfort of my room. “Callahan can be a little…unpredictable at times,” He explained, grimacing at just the thought of the older wolf. It was surprising how he and Zane thought so differently about Callahan, though; I chuck that up to being the fact that Callahan was related by blood to Zane, while in Lionel’s case, I assumed him to be just a fellow pack member. “Stay in your room for a little while, at least until Zane returns and they’re completely powerless.”“And how long will that be?” I asked and watched Lionel glance at his watch. He frowned. “In the next four hours or so.”The news had me frowning along. Four hours of staying in my room didn’t seem all that pleasurable. But then, if I thought hard about it, a similar situation had once happened to me when I was in the Orleans pack. My father…Derek had been having visitors over, other high-ranking Alpha’s

    ~Zane’s POV: I approached Cana’s room with speed, the news Lionel had shared with me ringing in my head. She had magic, I mused, a smile pulling on my lips. I had been right. As usual, I had been right. My moment of jubilation was broken by the sound of Cana’s scream and a loud thud coming from her room. At once, I charged at the door, pushing it open without thoughts of even knocking. “Cana? Are you alright-?” The question died on my lips as I found her on the floor, leg held up by her bed and book planted flat against her face. What…what was going on? Cana, who seemed to have heard me, turned and pulled the book away, revealing a red mark on her face. “Oh, you’re back.” She said, sitting up and grinning at me as if nothing had happened. I, however, was not convinced. “Are you alright? What are you doing on the floor?” She blushed and scratched the back of her neck, looking shy. “Well, I was reading a book and…then…well, I lost concentration and fell.” She giggled nerv

    ~Cana’s POV:Sheila, along with Callahan, had both been sent off to a different branch of the pack house and Cassandra had been punished severely before being banished from the pack. Or so I heard. The whole thing had happened less than twenty-four hours after the altercations between us four, and when I stepped out the next morning, neither of them was anywhere to be seen. “Sheila’s been sent away,” Talia was gracious enough to tell me when I visited Davis in the medical wing. She then went on to tell me how Zane had given that as their punishment and even apologized for not being around to stop the entire thing.I didn’t know what to make of their punishment, and I wasn’t even sure I wanted to know the details of the other’s punishment, so I didn’t bother questioning any further.Dismissing Talia’s unnecessary worry and apology, I chose to focus on Davis, whose last day in the medical wing it was. “Feeling better?” I asked, watching as the kid who was playing with his usual Leg

    The soft morning sun filtered through the curtains of their modest home in Ashbrook, painting the walls with warm hues of gold and pink. Cana stirred awake, the sound of tiny footsteps pattering down the hallway pulling her from her dreams. A soft giggle followed—a giggle she could recognize anywhere.Cana smiled and turned toward Zane, who was still fast asleep, his face relaxed and peaceful. She reached over to nudge him.“Your daughter is up,” she whispered.Zane groaned but smiled, keeping his eyes closed. “Our daughter,” he corrected, but he didn’t make any effort to move.Cana chuckled and threw the blanket off. “Fine, I’ll get her. But you’re on pancake duty.”That got him to open one eye. “Deal.”As Cana walked toward the living room, she found Peace sitting in the middle of the floor, surrounded by her stuffed animals. She had one of her birthday presents—a small toy piano—in front of her and was pressing random keys, creating a chaotic but delightful melody.“Good morning, m

    EpilogueThe soft hum of laughter and the gentle clinking of glasses filled the air as a warm breeze swept through the backyard. The space was alive with celebration, a reflection of a life rebuilt from the ashes of chaos and pain. Cana adjusted the balloons on the arch for what felt like the tenth time, ensuring they were perfect. She stepped back to admire her handiwork and smiled as her gaze landed on Zane, who had their daughter, Peace, perched high on his shoulders.Peace squealed with uncontainable delight, her tiny hands gripping her father’s thick black hair as he prowled around like a pretend wolf.“Rarrrr! The big bad wolf is coming for you!” Zane growled playfully, eliciting another round of giggles from his daughter.“You’re spoiling her,” Cana teased from across the yard, her tone light and affectionate.Zane looked over, his mischievous grin softening. “She deserves to be spoiled, especially today.”Cana chuckled and shook her head. She loved seeing Zane like this, care

    The house was eerily quiet as Cana stood in the middle of the living room, a half-packed box of belongings at her feet. The walls that once bore memories of battles, fleeting moments of laughter, and unshakable grief now felt foreign to her.Her fingers rested there as Zane entered the room, his arms full of folded clothes. He set them down on the couch and studied her face.“You sure about this?” he asked softly, breaking the silence.Cana nodded. “I’ve never been more sure of anything.”Zane sighed, leaning back against the couch. “I’ll miss this place, you know. Not everything that happened here, but the good parts. It was home for a while.”“Home isn’t a place, Zane,” Cana replied, her voice steadier now. “It’s us. Wherever we go, that’s home.”Zane smiled at her, but there was a trace of sadness in his expression. He knew leaving the pack was necessary, but it didn’t make saying goodbye any easier.Lionel appeared in the doorway, his ever-present smirk subdued for once. He held a

    The sun dipped low on the horizon, casting a warm orange glow over the forest that stretched beyond the small town Cana and Zane had called home. The evening breeze rustled through the trees, carrying with it the faint scent of pine and damp earth. Cana sat on the back porch of their cabin, a blanket draped over her shoulders, her hands cradling a steaming mug of tea. Zane leaned against the railing, his arms crossed over his chest, his sharp eyes fixed on the setting sun.Now that Axel is behind bars for the first time in what felt like years, there was silence. No battles, no cries for help, no looming threats. And yet, the quiet carried its weight.“You’ve been quiet,” Cana said, breaking the silence. Her voice was soft but carried a trace of concern.Zane turned to her, his expression unreadable. “Just thinking.”“About?”He hesitated for a moment, then pushed off the railing and sat down beside her. “About us. About what comes next.”Cana frowned, setting her mug down on the smal

    Cana stirred awake, her body aching and her mind clouded with fragmented memories. The last thing she recalled was the overwhelming rush of power coursing through her veins, her hands shifting into claws, and her body morphing into something primal. She felt the pull of the wolf—a force so ancient and raw that it left her trembling. The familiar scent of cedar and leather told her she was in Zane’s cabin.Her eyes fluttered open to see Zane sitting beside her bed, his elbows resting on his knees, his face etched with worry. His knuckles were bruised, his clothes torn, but his relief was palpable as their gazes met.“You’re awake,” he said softly, his voice heavy with emotion.“What happened?” Cana croaked, her throat dry. She winced as she tried to sit up, every muscle in her body screaming in protest.Zane reached for a glass of water on the bedside table and handed it to her. “You shifted, Cana. Fully. Into a wolf.”The words hung in the air, and Cana’s heart raced. She clutched the

    Seven Months AgoThe cell was dimly lit, the air heavy with the scent of rust and despair. Ashley sat slumped against the cold metal wall, her wrists shackled and her expression weary but defiant. She heard footsteps echoing through the corridor and turned her gaze toward the source. Lionel stepped into view, a sly smile curling his lips.“What do you want now?” Ashley snapped, her voice dripping with disdain.Lionel leaned against the bars of her cell, his posture relaxed but his eyes calculating. “You’re the one who replicated wolfsbane,” he began. “What was your intention?”Ashley snorted. “I had no intention. I was just following Jeremy’s orders.”Lionel tilted his head, his smirk unfaltering. “And now that he’s gone? What’s the plan?”Ashley’s lips twitched in a mock smile. “I’ll think about that part when I’m free of these chains.”Lionel chuckled, a low, almost sinister sound. “You know, we don’t necessarily have to be enemies here.”Ashley narrowed her eyes. “What’s that suppo

    Axel stormed into his house, his mind swirling with anger and disbelief. The Elders had banished him, taking everything from him without a second thought. He gritted his teeth, trying to keep his temper in check, but it was impossible. Everything he had worked for, every plan he had carefully laid out, seemed to be crumbling beneath his feet.“Just wait,” he muttered under his breath, his eyes narrowing. “I’ll make them all pay. But first, Zane... you will finally pay for always standing in my way.”The next morning, Axel woke to a loud knock on his door. His head was pounding, and his frustration hadn’t waned in the least. He trudged to the door, swinging it open to reveal three figures standing in his doorway: Lionel, Larz, and Akam.They exchanged brief greetings before stepping inside. Axel didn’t bother with pleasantries; his mind was focused solely on one thing.“So, tell us, Axel,” Lionel asked, his voice calm but curious. “Why the rush to kill Zane?”Axel clenched his fists,

    The air in the dimly lit room was thick with tension. Five Elders, each radiating authority, sat in a semicircle as Axel stood before them. His expression was calm, almost smug, as he prepared to deliver what he believed was a triumphant announcement."My Elders," Axel began, his voice steady but laced with an undertone of pride. "I bring good news. I will soon have an heir."The room remained silent for a moment, the Elders exchanging glances. Finally, one spoke. "Why tell us this?"Axel straightened, confidence surging through him. "Because I want to lead my pack again. An heir solidifies my claim to the title of Alpha."A scoff broke the silence. Another Elder, his eyes sharp and unforgiving, leaned forward. "Even after killing your kind? One of your pack?"Axel's confidence faltered, his eyes narrowing in suspicion. How did they know? He wondered, his mind racing."How did you find out?" Axel asked, unable to hide the shock in his voice."That doesn't concern you," the Elder snapp

    Cana hadn’t expected Axel to find her so quickly. She had chosen this small, nondescript motel for exactly that reason—to be far enough from the chaos of her past life to be safe, to think, and to plan. But the moment she heard the knock on her door, her stomach sank. She didn’t have to look through the peephole to know who it was.The deep, almost predatory knock sounded again, and with it came the familiar sense of dread that always seemed to follow Axel. She’d seen his manipulations, his lies, his promises. She knew what he was capable of—what he was still capable of, and she couldn’t afford to be caught off guard.Cana opened the door, and there he was, standing in the hallway with a smug smile that made her stomach twist with disgust. Axel, the man who had once been everything to her, was now a reminder of all the worst decisions she had made. His eyes gleamed with that same cold, calculating look that always came right before he dropped the hammer. The same look that had broken
