Cara's POV Brian led me through the thick woods, his large hand wrapped around mine, guiding me silently. My heart still raced from our heated, passionate moment in the cabin, and I couldn’t help but wonder where he was taking me. He had just said follow me, and here we are trudging through the woods. The forest seemed endless, but I trusted him, even though he hadn’t spoken much since we left the cabin. His grip was firm yet gentle, and despite the uncertainty and everything, I felt safe with him. “Where are we going?” I finally asked, breaking the silence. I was eager and nervous at the same time with all the mystery. He didn’t answer immediately but gave me a quick, mischievous smile before turning his gaze back to the path ahead. I felt a flutter in my chest at that smile. It was beautiful and full of mystery. Having nothing else to do. I admired his back sight, which was amazing on itself. I thought of running my hands down his broad back that was the size my own times three
Brian's povHappy was an understatement to how I felt, I had kissed Cara all I wanted and had managed to leash my wolf from coming out. It was the most happiest moment of my life. At first it was war with my cursed wolf, he was pushing to come out and claim his mate, but the rational part of me knew that how he sees claiming and how I sees one is not the same. A good example was when he came out controllablly the last time he had wounded Cara, who was an Omega, she was not meant to be mated to an alpha, not to talk of a rogue Alpha. Even though her bloodline is changing her, I could feel it, but she still has a long way before she can handle the rough touch of an alpha wolf. It has always been the law. That was why the elders were skeptical. Well, one of the reasons, another, was they were just looking out for their selfish reasons.I had led her hear, to my safe haven. Only Garreth knew that this place existed, not even Debby knows.I had found it by accident when i was small. afte
Cara pov I was nervous was an understatement, I was pacing up and down the cabin. Worried about the rogue and how it relates to Alice, my best friend in the silver ware pack. Brian, upon my pleas, had gone back to handle the situation before I got out of hand. After knowing of the Rogue that was captured, every detail that was described pointed towards Alice. I had begged him to follow him, but he refused vehemently, even insisting I stay in the cabin to await his return, leaving me with the promise that he will return with her. But now it has been a long time since Brian left, and he had not returned, making me kinda nervous at what had happened. A knock sounded at the door, and like a bee attracted to honey, I rushed to open it, but to my disappointment, it was Debby. “What's the problem, Cara?” She asked me, immediately noticing how tensed and down I looked. “It's my…my best friend is held captive and about to be sentenced to death.” “Wait, you best friend? You mean the spy
Cara's pov “Where is Alice?,” I asked Brian, and I refused to believe or think about any outcome that must have happened. Why was he just standing there like alone and silent?. “Where is she, Brian? What happened? I asked, waving my hands in the air, that sudden quietness and coming back alone, I didn't see anybody with him, meaning that he didn't succeed, which meant one thing… “Cara, cara!” Brian was calling me but I didn't want to listen to him tell me how he couldn't convince his own people to release someone, I couldn't control my hot tears that had already started falling down my eyes. “Cara listen to Brian…” Debby wanted to say, but I didn’t wait to hear what she was about to say. i snapped at her. “No you shut your mouth!!” I shouted at Debby, I was clearly overreacting or letting my rage cloud my head, but I don't care. At this point, I didn’t want to see their faces again. Despite the hurtful look on her face, Brian looked like he wanted to say something, but wha
Emily’s POVI stared down at the old dusty map of the Great Woods, tracing the faded lines with my finger. It had been over two weeks since we left our former pack, we had travelled and wandered through the great forest, and finally, we came here, hiding, barely surviving. It was a kind of a clearing that stretched for miles. I had thought it best to make our temporary tent and refill our stock before continuing our journey. The forest was unforgiving, dense, and full of shadows that seemed to close in around us each night. Which made the clearing safer for us.If it hadn’t been for the betrayal, maybe things wouldn’t have spiralled this way. I felt a surge of anger bubble through my chest as I thought about Jacob, the one person I never suspected would betray us. He was a respected man and very friendly with everyone.Jacob, our pack’s storyteller, the one who tells us our history, our myths, and the strength of our pack’s loyalty. He always organes the pack bonfire, but no one had s
Cara’s POVAlice and I walked through the Mafian wolf pack, and I couldn’t help but smile at her reaction. Her eyes were wide with admiration and surprise as she took in everything around us. The pack was hidden away, almost seamlessly blending with the natural world around it. No matter how many times I saw it, it always left me a bit amazed. There was something so peaceful about it, yet it held a powerful energy, like it was in harmony with every tree, every rock, every inch of the forest.“Beautiful, right?” I grinned at Alice, who still wore a dumbstruck look.“It’s… I can’t believe something like this exists,” she said, her voice a mix of awe and disbelief. “The rogues have this kind of place?”I chuckled and waved her concerns away. “There’s a lot you don’t know, Alice. Life in the rogue pack isn’t what you might think. Look around, yes, they’re rogues, but they live together, in peace, in harmony. The outside world has its own view, but there’s so much more they don’t understan
Cara’s POVStepping into the grand hall for the party, I felt a wave of emotions. surprise, nervousness, and something I couldn’t quite name. A wave of nostalgia hit me, I cringed at the thought of my first ever party. That was the party where I was supposed to be sold as a slave. Back in my old pack, that party was an auction meant to sell me as a slave. This, though, was something else entirely. It was a different ball game altogether.The hall was transformed beyond recognition. It used to be a cold, imposing place where the elders held court, judging anyone who dared defy them. Remembering the thought of standing over the platform enduring the pressure from a hundred years old werewolf elder, I almost turned my back to go home.“Omg. This place is so beautiful” Alice voice came from behind. She was wearing one of my dresses Debby had gotten for me when I came to the pack. With the help of Debby, her scent has been masked. Debby had given her the cream to make her smell like a rog
Cara’s POV Mark was wearing jeans topped with a shirt to match.not like I had ever seen him again since when he left me for good in a new strange place. He smiled, though there was something serious in his gaze that I couldn’t quite place. “Yeah, I’ve been… around. I'm just busy with some things.” He hesitated, as if he wanted to say more but wasn’t sure how. I leaned against the wall, crossing my arms. “You’ve been missing a lot. This place has changed so much.” Mark nodded, glancing back toward the hall. “It really has. It feels…okay” hrs Saif awkwardly, shifting from feet to feet. “So you were so busy as to forget about me in the Den, I almost got hurt, Mark, because you ran, was I some game for fun or a bet you made with your fellow guys to fool me” I poured out my mind, I was not really buying the am busy crap. “Mark?” I repeated my questions, “Where have you been? You disappeared without a trace. Was it just a joke.” A strange expression crossed his face, almost lik
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 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 pov“Surprised to see me, you didn't think I would still be alive” Ryder laughed an evil smile.You…, how did you know about this place” I asked, wanting to know how he got here in the first place. Was he the one that killed the secret guards?. But ye laughed.“I have my way around , Cara. You are still blind and foolishly naive” he said, taking a step forward, causing me to back away cautiously. Emily was standing beside me, her sword drawn ,but she was still surveying the surroundings.“Hahaha, you didn't think that I would ever back away after I couldn’t get you the first time. Did you?” he asked, flashing an evil smile.I ignored his question. Choosing not to answer him. “How did you know about this place. You are working for the council.” I questioned him. By now, we were backed up against the wall of the hall. Ryder still stood a few meters from us, his hands behind him, like he was not in a hurry. A sinking feeling started spreading inside my stomach.“Dear cupbearer. Yo
Cara's POVThe piercing sound of the war drum echoed through the air, sending chills down my spine. All around me, the arena descended into chaos. Brian stood tall, unwavering, his piercing gaze scanning the scene with the sharpness of a predator. The once vibrant faces of the Mafian pack, the people who had gathered for what should have been a resolution to Jules’ rebellion, were now etched with fear and determination.A sudden cry rang out. That was the shout of war acceptance. Warriors and rogues in their wolf form. streamed into the clearing, their weapons glinting in the dim light. I instinctively moved closer to Brian, my heart pounding as adrenaline coursed through my veins. Garreth’s arrival with Brian’s elite warriors was supposed to have tipped the balance, but fate had other plans. Emerging from the shadows like a tidal wave, enemy forces flooded the arena, their banners bearing the mark of the Council. And another symbol I can not make out. Like a sign of three wolves inte
Cara’s POVThe pressure and immense tension that fell over the arena was so thick it could be cut with a knife. At the center of it all stood Elder Jules, his signature smug grin plastered on his face, his arrogance radiating as strongly as the midday sun. He carried himself like an untouchable monarch, reveling in his perceived invincibility.I clenched my fists, forcing myself to meet his gaze. “This isn’t your pack, Jules. It’s Brian’s.”Jules chuckled, the sound cold and sharp, slicing through the fragile silence. “Slow down, young Omega. I am a respected elder of this pack. As such, I have every right to do what I am doing.”A collective intake of breath rippled through the gathered crowd, as though his words carried an unspoken threat. The elders, revered as symbols of wisdom and justice, held an unshakable authority. Even now, despite the undercurrent of fear, no one dared challenge him.“You’re sowing seeds of doubt and chaos,” I said, my voice steady even though anger churned
Cara povI wiped the sweat from my brow and sighed, leaning against the edge of Brian's bed. The clinic was quiet except for the faint rustling of leaves outside. It had been a week since Brian fell into a coma, it was like a gloomy veil covered the whole of mafians wolf pack. the pack had sunk into a gloomy, restless state. Cases of theft and robbery were a predominant situation these days.The once-unshakable Mafian Wolf Pack felt fractured, its foundation weakened without its Alpha.My gaze lingered on Brian’s face, pale and motionless, his strong frame looking smaller and more fragile than ever. I reached out, brushing a strand of hair from his forehead. “You’re stronger than this,” I whispered, my voice barely audible. “You always have been.”But no matter how many times I said those words, no matter how many sleepless nights I spent trying to heal him with the powers I had come to fear, nothing changed. Rather I would exhaust my strength and fall asleep by hisside, only to conti
Caras povDebby looked at me with pity in her eyes, but she didn't try to stop me again.I placed my trembling hands on Brian’s fur, leaning closer to his ear. “Brian, listen to me. You have to shift. I know it’s hard, but you can do this. You’ve faced worse before. Please come back,... come back to me.”The fire inside me surged, brighter and hotter than ever, as if responding to my desperate plea. My connection to him felt stronger, deeper, as though our very souls were intertwined, bound together by something neither of us could deny. I pressed my forehead gently against his fur, feeling the warmth of his battered body. “Come back to me,” I whispered again, tears streaming freely down my face.I closed my eyes, focusing on the bond between us, the bond that had always been there, even when we’d fought it, denied it, ignored it. The mating bond. I reached out, not with my hands but with my mind, calling to him through the invisible thread that tied us together.Brian. Can you hear m
Cara povThe once powerful Rogue King, the wolf who had dominated my thoughts and haunted my dreams, now lay before me, a shadow of his former self. His breaths were shallow, each one a struggle as though life was slipping through his grasp.“Brian!” I screamed, pushing through the crowd. The pack members stepped aside, their expressions a mix of fear and despair.When I reached him, I dropped to my knees, my hands trembling as I reached out to touch his bloodied fur. I felt electricity tingling from his body to mine, following my hands coming in contact with him, but I was not in the right state of mind to give it a second thought. His body was limp, his strength drained.“Brian,” I whispered, tears streaming down my face. “What happened to you?”He opened one eye weakly, and a red orb in place of eyes stared at me with a dim light. “Cara…” he rasped, his voice barely audible.The crowd murmured, going into a frenzy, but I didn’t care. My focus was entirely on him.At that moment, Ga
Cara’s POVIt’s been two days since we returned to Mafian wolf pack, and I could feel the weight of hatred in every corner of the pack. The once warm smiles and nods of acknowledgment and reverence I once received before everything were replaced by cold glares and whispered insults. People stared at me with malice in their eyes, their disdain palpable.Even Debby, who had always been a source of comfort and guidance, was keeping her distance. I had not seen her since I came back, only sending in other nurses and maids to attend to me. The betrayal cut deep, and though I had the sisters, Emily and Emma, by my side when they weren’t busy, their absence was felt too. Emily was now a commander in mafian wolf pack as well as acting as a leader for her own people, she was burdened with responsibilities that kept her occupied, while Emma was often off with Siden, like two runaway lovers, their bond growing stronger each day.I tried to focus on small tasks to keep myself distracted in the ca
