Cara’s POVThe air was thick with tension, my breath coming in short, shallow gasps as I faced the chaos unraveling before me. The lifeless bodies on the floor, the metallic scent of blood, and the cold, taunting gaze of Ryder filled me with dread. Emily was fighting valiantly, but Ryder’s strength was terrifying. He toyed with her as if she were a mere annoyance.I gripped the broken pipe tighter, my knuckles white from the effort. My body trembled, my fear nearly paralyzing me. My mind screamed for me to do something, anything, but I was frozen, helpless as the fight raged around me.Debby?She stood with blood dribbling from her small sharp blade. She snucked from the back of the man. Killing him instantly and catching everyone by surprise. Even Ryder had to pause to see what was going on. He seemed caught off guard, his usual smirk replaced with a look of mild surprise, and the way his eyes widened didn't escape my notice.She was garbed in a loose, simple white gown that had an e
Caras povHer glowing aura flickered, then faded as she fell to her knees. I caught her before she hit the ground, tears streaming down my face.“You’re going to be okay,” I whispered, my voice trembling. “You have to be okay.”“Not all strong again, hahaha. Ryder laughed, “Nothing will stop me from taking the bride”But as he took a step forward. A loud, feral roar echoed through the tunnel, shaking the very walls. It was like something I had ever heard. Ryder froze, his expression unreadable. For a moment, he hesitated, but then when I thought he would pounce. He turned and fled into the darkness.“Cara,!!” Emily called my name, making me snap out, focusing on Debby, who was now unconscious but was still bleeding from her wound.“Common, Debby, you have to heal. Please” I chanted nonstop like a mantra in my head. I held her head as I begged her to heal. I tried using my abilities, but still the same empty response. I felt a hand on my shoulder. “Cara, it's too dangerous out here. L
Cara’s POVHe had not considered our love. Or at least what we had. Brian threw it all away just to satisfy his guilty conscience. These thoughts kept repeating in my head, for I was knelt in the rubble outside the town hall, my knees buried in the cold dirt, staring at nothing. The sun rose and fell, the air shifting from frigid to unbearably hot, but I didn’t move. I couldn’t. The world around me blurred into an indistinct haze of sorrow, pain, and the heavy scent of ash and blood.Two days had passed, though time had lost its meaning to me.I could hear them. The people. Wailing for their dead, crying for those they would never see again. Mothers screamed for their children; fathers searched desperately for their sons. It was a communion of heartbreak, piercing through the already suffocating silence of a battlefield long abandoned.A man’s voice rose above the cries. his hoarse and broken voice resonated with my heart that was already broken. “No! No, it can’t be her! Please, not
Cara’s POVThe forest loomed around me, its towering trees stretching toward the sky like skeletal fingers. Their thick canopies blocked out the light, casting everything in an eerie dark gloom. Each step I took was cautious, careful, yet my mind was anything but steady.Debby’s final words echoed in my thoughts, she had used her last strength to whisper a plea in my ears. “The Cupbearers, go to the mountains and they will locate you”I had promised her that I would go. More like I had no choice than to agree to her request, to find the secret pack hidden deep in the mountains. They were my only hope now. She believed they could help me unlock the power that had betrayed me, the same power that refused to heed my call when I needed it most. My wolf altogether with my abilities looked like they were Inna consensus to ditch me. She had been silent throughout the war. But I could feel her gloominess. I could tell she misses her mate.I tightened the cloak around my shoulders, the chill of
Cara’s POVI shook my head, too stunned to speak. The masked figure was offering me a strange vial. I was speechless.“Your abilities” she repeated. This time, there was an urgent tone in her voice. But I was still skeptical about accepting the strange gift. I racked my head to know why she looked so familiar, but it came out blank.I took a step back instinctively, weary of the content in the vial. I am not a fan of secret substances that's in a vial. But looking at the figure who just stood there, staring at me intensely, I didn't perceive any animosity from her. Besides the fight, she was so powerful that if she wanted, she would just force the vial down my throat without seeking any consent.Taking a deep breath, I accepted the gift.“Good,” she said, then like how she had come. She disappear into the bushes, making me as confused as I could ever be. But my mind was already made up. I sniffed the substance, but it had no smell. It was just a colorless liquid, the size of the drop
Cara’s POV“Welcome to the community.”The leader of the group, a man with graying hair and a voice that held quiet authority, announced these words with a smile that softened his otherwise rugged features. His name, as he later introduced, was Martin.“Community?, desserter?” My confused gaze collided with his shiny eyes. It was subtle, and it would have meant anything, but He nodded. Confirming my suspicions.I blinked in disbelief, his words echoing in my head. The community? My heart raced as realization struck, I’d finally found them. Or rather, they had found me. The Cupbearers.I felt like crying or shouting. At least do something that I have not done in a week now, but I could find the strength to do any of them.The journey here had been grueling and filled with uncertainty and danger. Every step through the forest had been weighed down by doubts, fears, and the constant feeling of being watched, coupled with my dangerous encounter in the forest with the werewolf psychopaths.
Cara pov“Cara, be strong.” The words kept repeating in my head. I could not believe that this was happening.Have I been tricked only to be dumped into the lion's den?. This horrifying ran through my mind as I tried to take cover. Within a moment, the metal warrior was beside me swinging his sword.I dodged it by a hair breath. I gasped as Strands of my own hair fell to the ground. I had narrowingly escaped death.“Get me out of here!!” I screamed,running up and down the grand hall, but there was no response. I wondered what I was supposed to do. I was not strong enough to even best a child warrior, not to talk of this. At that moment, I felt like crying. My emotions are getting the best out of me.Is this how it will end?. I will die in this forgotten and unknown place. I thought of Debby, Garreth, and Brian. Garreth won't even know we're looking, as I was thousands of kilometers away.The sound of a metallic voice broke me out of my thoughts.“one minute down, the second warrior act
Cara povThe enigmatic and mysterious leader that Martin has been telling me all about was no other person than Emelda, the female elder of Brian's former pack. I stared in shock, not believing what I was seeing, as I tried to connect how I could have seen it coming.When I was summoned by the elders, they all wanted to control me. At that time, Emelda was in between , acting as the only mediator between Brian and the elders, but It couldn't have shown anything about her being a cupbearer. And let's not forget the pull I felt to Debby, even without knowing, I had unconsciously been drawn closer to her, but Emelda…“I know what you are thinking.There are lots of things that are beyond knowing just from instincts” she said softly.“Do you?…, can you also read my mind?” I snapped, but she smiled at me, waving the now rigid warriors who were rigid from my earlier outburst.“Leave us” she commanded.“But leader she…” a commander stepped forward.“Are you saying I am too weak in front of an

Cara’s povOne week later.The war was over. Derek and his cohorts have been defeated. And following his death His remaining warriors had fled seeing that their commander was gone.I was told that we chased them through the great woods, making sure that we weakened their forces, even as they fled deep inside the great woods. That was as good as dead, and because of that, we had stopped pursuing them. We were back to the east. Our home is currently in Brian's former pack. Everywhere was a beehive of activities as the pack was being rebuilt. From my position, I could see Garreth. His loyalty and dedication to his duty are worthy of commendation. He is directing some pack members on what to do.Also, there is Emily and Emma, with their mates. They have survived the war. They are in control of their people and together helping to rebuild the mafian wolf pack.“Enjoying the view” I turned, at the sound of the voice. It was Alpha alexander.His body was covered in earth from all the work.
Brian's povThe silence in the hall was deafening, broken only by the faint, uneven rhythm of Cara's shallow breathing. My hands were stained with her blood, and Derek's blood, who lay at the end of the hall, dead.Cara was dying and dying fast. Her heart was barely beating, slowly going to a stand still.Her body was so still, too still. My heart pounded violently in my chest. It felt like my heart was giving up. This is all my fault. Derek taunting words haunted me like a persistent shadow. I had shown compassion.This is my fault.If I hadn’t hesitated, if I hadn’t let my feelings cloud my instincts, none of this would have happened. Cara would have been alive and well. We would have won the battle and gone back to east ellorin filled with happiness, but my moment of weakness had caused her to be on the brink of death.I cradled her closer, her head resting on my chest. “Cara…” Her name escaped my lips as a broken whisper. “Please… please don’t leave me.”My wolf howled in anguish,
Cara povThe moment I jumped into the battlefield to help my people who were struggling, a loud sound rang throughout the battlefield. I stopped dead in my tracks, looking at the new arrivals from the west. And what I saw left me speechless. They were not more than twenty, but I could feel the faint connection through my fire.“Cupbearers…, no the forbidden,” like Debby had called them. They were cupbearers that had changed faction. Julia had told me that the discovery of the cupbearers that were sent on a mission, whereas a result of the betrayal of this group of cupbearers. They were given the ne the forsaken because they had forsaken their belief and helped to kill their own people.Everything now made sense. The mysterious would on Brian when he came back from the council. It was inflicted by the cup bearers and to think they have been working for Derek.The moral of the west troops rose as they saw their backup. They started pushing us back with great vigor, as casualties began
Cara’s POVSound of blaring war whistles and horns started blasting immediately, and we reached 10m of the gigantic pack. I divided my troops into two based on the agreed tactic we will use. Garreth, with the other commanders, led half of the tropes into the middle of the pack. Although it was risky and far more dangerous. Garreth had agreed without hesitation, and now they were in position patiently waiting for my signal despite the chaos going on in the pack.The other half of my troops led by alpha Alexander were back at the camp, in case of retreat. We exercised caution, knowing that the West was a foreign land to us. I was at my position. An undercover entrance to a mountain. The mountain wolves had disclosed a secret pathway I to the pack. That is where I will follow. I was following our mating bond that was still pulsing weakly.“On your command,” she said, hiding beneath shrubs. She had insisted that she would follow me.I nodded, “we attack” , The sound of the whistle rang
Cara’s POVThe weight of leadership was heavy, far heavier than I could have ever imagined. I stood at the edge of my tent, watching as our faction, which has now become the strongest fighting force of Eastern Ellorin, prepared for the long march ahead. After my bold declaration, some factions had come to join me on my quest to wage war against the western district. Currently, my faction is made up of the mafian wolf pack , which is the first group of people, then the pack of alpha Alexander ruled by the two sisters. The third is the mountain wolves that alpha Alexander came with. They are a group of wolves that secluded themselves from the activities of ellorin. Choosing to live in the mountains. But on hearing the legend of the pureblood, they had come out of their hiding shell. Plus, three others have come to join us. Making it a total of six different factions out of the twelve factions in the eastern district.Fires burned low, and the air was thick with tension. The once-vast E
Cara povThe voice of Emma pierced through the battlefield.“Brother”Wolves of different sizes jumped out of the nearby hills and mountains. They were viciously wolves, and of course, their peculiar scent of rogues permeated the air. But that was not the most stinking and distinguished thing that gave me a momentary pause. The main thing was the fine young man leading the wolf's.“Alpha Garreth!”His name left my mouth before I could stop it. Even the spiky haired warrior had to stop. Because of the sudden intrusion. He was still the same. His curly hair stood out, making him presentable. He wore a thick animal skin as an armor that did nothing to hide his bulging muscles.“How dare you bully my sisters” he scowled at Alpha Black and his cohorts before lunging at them in an intense battle of the strongest. The tempo of the war changed as I spotted a frown on the spiky warrior's face.“Plan not going as planned?” I taunted, now that the pressure had been moved away immensely, especial
Cara povAlpha Black was a strong alpha. Even though he likes to bite and run, it doesn't mean that he is weak. He chooses to hide his power and feign weakness so as to make you underestimate him, but it wasn’t for me. I have lived with him, and I know him and every trick he has up his sleeve. That was why I poured my strength in our first clash. meeting his charge head-on. Our blades clashed, the force of the impact sending a shockwave through the air.My sword vibrated from the impact. The force pushed me two steps back, but he only took a step back. To show you the disparity of strength.“foolish girl,you think you can stand against the Master’s will?” he snarled, his strength pressing against mine. As he charged for the second time.I had even underestimated him again. His strength was way above mine, without my bloodline being active. His words made me reconsider this Master from the western district. If alpha Black van willingly serves him as hid slave, that goes a long way to t
Cara’s POVThe Bluecreek Pack loomed ahead of us. The fortress ahead of me was nothing like the pack I grew up in. Its borders are marked by tall trees and a faint trail of smoke rising from within. From what I have heard, they were a combination of the Alliance. The merging of different neighboring packs and their Alpha into what they called the Alliance. It was them that led the attack on the mafian wolf pack. We had come for our revenge.I stood on a small hill overlooking the whole pack. the weight of the moment pressing against my chest. Behind me, a sea of rogue warriors stretched far, and they faced a mixture of determination and uncertainty. These were my people now, the Mafian Wolf Pack. The ones that remain to be exact. They had reluctantly accepted me as their Luna, and I knew some of them still doubted me.But I would prove them wrong.Garreth stood at my side, his presence a steadying force. He had become more than just an ally, and more than a friend, he was my anchor in
