Ardan PoV

The day started with Draven standing at my door with his face as hard as stone. In his hand, he held a tiny, black book that contained his riddles and diagrams. I gestured towards the door, signalling him to come inside.

“You look like hell,” I said sadly, pointing at the chair on the other side of the desk.

“I’ve been having visions again,” he stated uncomfortably. The gravity of the situation was evident in his tone. “It’s about the relic.”

I tensed. “The one that came with the magic that was tied to Gloria?”

He nodded. “Yes. But it is even more dangerous than one could have thought. I think it could bring her soul back to life if it were left with no restraint. But if Evelyn—or Serena comes in contact with it…” he stopped as he contemplated over his next words.

I leaned forward. “We destroy it. Whatever it takes.”

Draven groaned audibly, massaging his temples with his fingers. “It’s not that simple. If a person decides to destroy it, he or she stands the risk of unleashin

    Ardan PoVI stood still in the middle of the area still tensed. Josephine’s words about Evelyn did not leave my ears or the very core of my existence. How could I have allowed her to utter such words about my daughter?As I was about to leave, Zone who by now wore the most sinister of looks on his face, approached me.“Ardan, what the hell was that?” he asked, his tone harsh, but not raised overly so.“I do not wish to talk about it,” I replied, clenching my teeth.Zone interfered and stood right in front of me, ensuring that I could not avoid dealing with this situation. “She’s your daughter, Ardan. You remained immobile as the pack watched Josephine demean her.“I know,” I snapped. “But now isn’t the time.”Zone scoffed. “If not now, then when? Evelyn needs you, and instead, you’re here pouting your lips while Josephine—”“I don’t want to discuss it,” I snapped back. Irritation was heavy in my tone that made him stop.Before Zone could continue his questioning Josephine stepped in w

    Evelyn’s PoVSomething weird was going on. I woke up on the bed, breathing in short, rapid gasps and my heart beating fast. Initially, I assumed that it was just another dream and then, I heard something.A voice.“Evelyn…” it said again.Holding my blanket firmly, I looked around the room and felt a cold sweat running down my spine. That’s when I saw her. A woman’s spirit appeared at a corner.“You are a threat to them,” she declared calmly. “Unstable. Dangerous.”“Don’t get any closer,” I whispered with a quivering voice.She smiled at her adversary, turning her head slightly. “Oh, but I’m not your enemy, Evelyn. You have no one who understands you as much as I do. I am the only one who sees your potential. Against any of them, you are stronger than they can ever know. Even stronger than your own mother.”I covered my ears with my palms. “Stop it! Leave me alone!”“You’re not meant to be controlled by them,” she continued against my efforts to ignore her. “They are scared of you bec

    Evelyn’s PoVI opened my eyes to the morning sunshine streaming through my windows. I yawned and wished this day was as special as it was meant to be. My 18th birthday. I had turned a year older and my mother was still in a coma. I wanted my mother here, awake, smiling at me like she did when she birthed me.“Happy birthday, Evelyn!” I jumped as Luca entered my room, opening the door and carrying a small basket in his arms.I forced a smile. “Thanks, Luca.”“I had the whole day planned for us,” he said with a wide smile. “You’ll love it.”I agreed, though there was little enthusiasm in my gestures. “Sounds great.”He looked at my expression and then leaned back because I did not show much interest at all. “Hey, what’s wrong?”“I just… “ Looking at me and how sad I was, Luca took my hands and I said, “If only mommy were here.”Luca’s smile softened. “I get it. But you’ve got me, okay? Besides, she’d want you to enjoy the rest of your day. So let’s go, okay?”“Alright.” I agreed, gettin

  • Mate? Or Die!   Chapter 202 Serena’s Awakening

    Ardan’s PoVI was seated in Josephine’s room with an uncomfortable silence. She realised that I didn’t care about her feelings and just wanted her to remove the baby. She fumed near the window, folding her arms across her chest. Now she was sure she was pregnant and I didn’t know what else to do.“We cannot keep this baby,” I retorted, attempting to stay as strong as possible.Josephine looked at me with determination in her eyes. “This baby is your opportunity to have your own child, a child that genetically belongs to you. I’m not removing it, Ardan. You have already had to nurture someone else’s child as if he/she is your own. Now you get to have one that’s truly yours.” Josephine expressed.The words she said deeply affect me, yet, they were merely words of consolation. “You are not aware of the countless questions I will have to answer the moment Serena opens her eyes. Evelyn already has known that I am not her father. She knows she’s cursed. If Serena finds out about you and thi

    Serena PoVNo matter where I went, people stared at me. People looked around, exchanged glances, and discreet murmurs rose from the audience, and then, involuntarily, everyone started to come to me.“Serena!” a woman shouted as she reached out with quivering hands to grab my arm. “You’re alive!”“Yes, I am,” I replied with a faint smile on my lips, while my spirit was sinking inside me.It tried to not to get overwhelmed as they all enveloped me with words of astonishment and relief. I could hardly manage it but I had to make an effort to be polite and reached out for their hand to shake. These were my people, I felt as if even after 18 years of separation I was obliged to take care of them.Upon the exchange of pleasantries, my eyes met her—Josephine. She stepped to the side, standing with her arms crossed and looking at me with an enigmatic stare. The moment I saw her, I had to detach myself from the others and walked headed towards her.“

    Serena’s PoVIsiah and Alpha Joachim sat across from me with tense expressions written all over their face.“The rogue pack’s threats of war are not empty,” Alpha Joachim began grimly. “They’ve been moving closer to our borders, and their scouts have been spotted in our hunting grounds.”I nodded, keeping my composure. “I was briefed about it all. I’ll address the elders of my pack. They will listen to me.”Isiah leaned back in his chair and fixed his eyes on me. “It’s admirable that you’re throwing yourself back into duty so quickly after everything, Serena. But it’s not your burden alone.”“This isn’t just a burden,” I said firmly. “This is my duty. My people deserve my full commitment, no matter what.”Isiah smiled faintly and softened his expression. “I can see what Ardan sees in you. You’re exceptional. Too

  • Mate? Or Die!   Chapter 205 GLORIA MANIFESTS

    Evelyn’s PoVIt had been days since I learned the truth: I was wolfless. A defect. An outcast. That knowledge weighed me down and it made me feel like I was isolated from the rest of the world. I had distant myself from my mother, Marcus, and even Rachel. The feeling of being cursed, of being a loser, weighed me down and I couldn’t bear it.For long hours, I remained on the edge of the camp with averted eyes, and a concerned face. But Marcus found me. Sitting on a tree trunk, daydreaming, the sound of his voice jerked me back to reality.“Evelyn,” he said my name again.When I looked down, he was climbing up. I could see worry on his face. “What do you want, Marcus?”“To talk,” he said, sitting a few inches away from me. “You have been hiding from everyone, particularly me.”“Perhaps that is because I require liberty,” I retorted, folding my arms across my chest.Marcus sighed, coming closer to me. “It does not matter that you need space, Evelyn. I wanna hold your hand. I wanna hug yo

  • Mate? Or Die!   Chapter 206 ROGUE PROBLEMS

    Serena’s PoVMy own child, my Evelyn, had become so cold to me. I’ve tried my best to get close to her after that fateful day when she learned that she was wolfless, but she rebuffed all attempts. I also attempted to talk her, to look for her, and to engage in conversation, but all in vain.It hurt.But I could not allow myself to be distracted, not with a rogue pack standing at the brink of war. I swallowed it down and told myself that if Evelyn did not wish to speak to me at this time, I would let her be. But my responsibility towards the pack was still an issue and so I focused my efforts on making us stronger so that perhaps, never would there be a need for war.I had to consult the elders regarding the proposed alliance with the new rogue pack, so I convened a meeting. My intention was to advocate for peace before the onset of conflict. While I was with the elders in the council room, everyone was seated in a circle and there was tension in the air. Ardan sat beside me, not sayin

    Evelyn PoVMy past choices pressed heavily on me during my walk through the camp. Every move I made was accompanied by the memories of my victims and the people I harmed. Gloria's comments sounded louder than ever in my thoughts with her gentle and convincing tone. She assured me that I possessed the potential to achieve great things.Her pledges started to break down under pressure.As I gazed at the night sky Gloria softly noted "Your power comes from our bond. Without me, you’re nothing. Remember that, Evelyn.”Her words initially, would have provided me comfort and guidance toward my goals. But now it felt like I was in a prison since she held me in her grip and kept me from making free decisions. Gloria took advantage of me just like Caden did.I clenched my fists. Did the pursuit of power need to destroy lives this way?“You didn’t need to scare my mother away. I think I’m getting the hang of it now. My mo

    Serena PoVThe room was filled with tension. On the table, the map was spread with Ardan and Alpha Joachim facing each other while arguing about their next military move. I rested my back against the wall with my arms folded while my head itched from the mounting stress.“I think we should make our first move from this area.” Ardan proposed, circling an area on the map. “Striking this location will split the the red blood moon pack’s military divisions.”Joachim shook his head. “Ardan you fixate solely on using power in your approach. Caden's wolves learn to handle strife during physical confrontations. Our strike must be slow and deliberate to reach Evelyn since moving too quickly would cost us many wolf lives.”Evelyn. I remembered how our last conversation went. My love for her hurt deeply but I couldn't find a way to be with her. Gloria took complete control of Evelyn's mind and every time I thought about her

  • Mate? Or Die!   Chapter 214 THE POINT

    Evelyn PoVI stood in Caden’s war room with tension thick in the air and my hands shaking at my sides. Territory maps of various packs, slashed through in red to show how many we’d been able to bring under our control, were spread across the table. At the head of the table, my father, Caden gripped the map with his shining bionic arm as he laid out our next move.“After we claim the Eastern moon pack,” Caden said coldly, “we will have power over all major territory in a hundred-mile radius. The rest will be compelled to fall in line.”I couldn’t take my eyes off him; I was disgusted. “And if they don’t?” I asked, though I knew the answer.Caden turned to me, narrowing his eyes. “Then we crush them. No one defies us, Evelyn. This is what it takes to unite the wolves and ensure peace.”“Peace,” I repeated bitterly. “Is this what peace feels l

  • Mate? Or Die!   Chapter 213 A VOW TO BRING ME BACK

    Evelyn’s PoVI was standing at the forefront of Caden’s soldiers, with my father staring me down from across the battlefield. His words from earlier rang in my ears: “This is not just another battle, Evelyn. It’s about sending a message. We have to make them understand that whoever dares to side with Ardan cannot withstand us.”I realised that it was not merely a matter of asserting one’s authority - it was much more personal. And now, I was leading the charge.I was afraid. My hands shook slightly and I had to hide it. Gloria’s whispers had decided to take a break but I know I was doing this on my own accord. Her whispers or not, Gloria was forever present.“Ready, Evelyn?” Caden asked in a commanding tone.I simply bowed my head, swallowing the disgust that rose from deep within my heart. “I’m ready.”The attack started off as being vicious and unrelenting. Wolves foug

  • Mate? Or Die!   Chapter 212 THE FIRST ATTACK

    Evelyn’s PoVThe night was dark, and the atmosphere was rather oppressive, as if everyone was expecting a fight. I was by my father side, Caden, at the forest and across from us was the rogue pack which we were enemies with. We had encroached their territory and we wanted war. I felt my pulse quicken, but it was not due to any kind of apprehension. It was something else—a feeling of anxiety intertwined with adrenaline and Gloria’s spirit was all I needed to charge up.“Are you ready?” Caden asked.I could not escape the doubt I felt but I attempted to mask with a nod. Was I truly ready? Is this the road I am to travel?“This isn’t just about war. It’s about making sure our pack is going to be safe from threats that may exist in the future. If left unaddressed, ‘they’ will be a constant thorn in the side of everything we are trying to construct here.”I forced myself to believe him, a

  • Mate? Or Die!   Chapter 211 A VISION OF DESTRUCTION

    Serena PoVI had learned about the changes that took place in Evelyn and the revelation was eye-opening for me. My daughter—the one I had wanted to shield from the reality of the world—was now a part of an immeasurable force. But it was not only power, it was power stained with blood. Caden had manhandled her and had exploited her strength for his own gain. Worse still, the spirit of Gloria had successfully taken over Evelyn and is determined to finish her off as well.I sat in my room, with the curtains drawn and my mind tormented by guilt and sorrow. How had it come to this? Evelyn was meant to be protected, enveloped in affection, but what I had offered her was anything but that. Now she was beyond my reach, entangled with Caden and manipulated by Gloria.I tried to reach her. With my eyes shut tight, I focused on our connection and communicated with her via my wolf mother link.“Evelyn,” I said through our telepathic connection. “It’s me, your mother. Please, talk to me.”At that

  • Mate? Or Die!   Chapter 210 POWER AWAKENS

    Evelyn’s PoVThe change that happened in me was not sudden like a snap of the fingers; it was a slow process like the encroachment of night over day. At first, it was subtle: was always accompanied by a keener sense of presence, a liveliness that surged through me, making me feel as though I were unstoppable. But as days turned into weeks, I began to know other things.Although, when I concentrated, I realised that I could control the wind. I could also feel with my mind the thoughts and intentions of people around as if they were exposed to me like an open diary… something akin to what my mother can do. It was rather daunting, but at the same time, it was liberating.I first felt this transformation while going through an attack with pure wolves like my mother and me. We were caught off guard while patrolling the outskirts of the territory. Caden had taken me along with a group of his pack to check on my commitment and ability to survive in his pack, which was a pack of killers.Our

  • Mate? Or Die!   Chapter 209 A NEW HOME

    Evelyn’s PoVIt wasn’t long before Caden came to pick me up. His rogue wolves stood next to him, their faces cold and emotionless. My mother, Serena, stood firm in front of me, her aura protected me and prevented the wolves from coming any closer to me.“I will personally cut your genitals off if you dare to lay a finger on her,” she snarled.Caden smirked, unfazed. “Relax, Serena. She’s my daughter. I am taking her to her rightful place.”“She is my daughter too,” Serena replied heatedly her eyes burning with anger. “And I’m warning you, Caden. Evelyn is more than what meets the eye.” Then she lowered her tone. “Evelyn is in contact with Gloria. Someone like you can use that to your advantage but not when my daughter’s life is at stake.”Caden’s expression turned from one of annoyance to a cool one. “You worry too much, Serena. I’ll handle it.”“Caden, this isn’t some joke!” My mom yelled.I placed a hand on her arm. “Mom, it’s okay. I’ll be fine. I promise.”She relaxed her eyes. “P

    Evelyn’s PoVCaden proposed a second meeting, calling his people in. As we all came together for the second meeting, the room was filled with an uneasy tension. The rogue pack talked in hushed tones, and my mother fidgeted uncomfortably next to Ardan, looking like they wanted to be anywhere else in the world but here. At the head of the table, Caden leaned forward, his features were unreadable but his authority was unmistakable.“Let me tell you my plan,” Caden said immediately, “I‘m willing to retract my threats for war. What I want is peace—but on my terms.”A light squeaking sound filled the air as the people present in the room shifted to get closer in the room and listen intently.Caden’s eyes settled on me. “I will cancel the war proposal, but only if Evelyn accepts to relocate to my home. She will be the link between my pack and your pack. This remains my price, and on this issue, there cannot be any compromise.”I could only open my mouth in surprise and my heart started flutt
