last update Last Updated: 2024-11-30 16:29:53

SELENA’S POV

The pack territory was nothing like I had imagined.

Rogues were supposed to live in filthiness, in tattered camps with the lingering scent of death and desperation hanging about in the atmosphere. But this place—this hidden haven—was something else entirely.

The forest opened to reveal a sprawling village nestled in a valley. Neat, and well-maintained houses arranged on the winding paths, their wooden exteriors blending harmoniously with the surrounding trees. The air smelled of pine and fresh earth, not the stench of decay I had expected. The people—wolves, I reminded myself—moved about with purpose, their faces curious but not too unkind.

It was... beautiful.

Kai led me down a narrow path, his broad figure cutting through the crowd with ease. His presence was majestic, commanding, and wherever he passed, people bowed their heads in respect, murmuring greetings that spoke of both reverence and admiration.

“Alpha.”

    SELENA’S POVI remember now.I remember every fucking details now. Every memory, every ounce of betrayal, every excruciating pain—I remembered it all. I recall being Irene Blackthorn. That was who I was, who I had been before the silver knife severed my life. And the one who sent it through me was the man I had once called my mate. He was Damon Nightshade. His icy blue eyes flashed in my mind, the same ones I once used to see love in were now poisoned with hatred. He had stabbed me with no hesitation, no remorse at all.And Elara. The witch. She had helped him. I could clearly hear her twisted smile resounding in my ears, her dark magic... they had both torn me apart. But the physical pain I had felt then was nothing compared to the torment of knowing that the love I had offered to Damon so freely had been nothing but a weapon in his hand.I gasped for breath, clutching the blanket around me like it could protect me from the torment surging in my veins. The warmth of the room contras

    KAI’S POVThe moon was full and high in the sky, casting a soft, silvery light into my room through the narrow opening between my black curtains. It was very late in the night, yet sleep eluded me. Everytime I closed my eyes, she was right there—messing with my mind. Selena had taken every space in my head. I couldn't avoid thinking about the rogue we had welcomed into the pack tonight. She was just like a mystery, with a fearless exterior but a pitiful past. Her stormy blue eyes hinted at secrets, and I was determined to understand her, even if it meant getting hurt in the process. When it was finally the dawn of a new day. Immediately the sun roze from where it usually hid from the moon, I found myself standing outside her cabin, the scent of pine and frost sharp in the morning air. My wolf stirred restlessly within me, a low growl vibrating through my chest. He was curious—no, obsessed—with her. It was unlike him to be so drawn to anyone so quickly. He wanted to be near her, to w

    SELENA’S POVMy muscles ached all over from the brutal morning’s training. I really didn’t get why he was training me even when I never asked for it. I could get it well on my own, I knew better than to trust anyone again. But Kai was relentless, and despite my irritation, I couldn’t deny the flicker of admiration I felt for his dedication. He pushed me harder than anyone ever had, forcing me to bring out the strength within me I barely knew existed. Yet the lingering tension between us was suffocating.I clenched my fists, trying to steady my breath. The memory of Kai pinning me against the tree, his body pressed close to mine, replayed in my mind. My pulse quickened at the thought. ‘Get a grip, Selena’. He was dangerous—too dangerous—and I couldn’t afford to let myself be drawn to him. I wasn’t here to make connections. I was here to survive.Kai finally came back after going to get water for both of us. After he passed on the water container to me and I skipped from it, he didn’t s

    SELENA’S POV‘Talk to me.’ My voice echoed through my mind, expecting a response from my wolf. ‘Please, just say something.’I was really desperate for an answer, but all she did was to provide me with silence.She might have been usually quiet except for the times she was emotional, but I had always felt Celestia presence within me somehow. Now I felt distant from her—too far to reach, too quiet to bear. I tried to tell myself it didn’t matter. I didn’t need her. I didn’t need anyone, in fact. But the lie tasted bitter.‘Are you angry?’ I pressed further, trying to coax her as my thoughts became softer now. ‘Or are you just done with me?’But there was still no reply from her.I clenched my jaw, forcing my body to stay upright despite the subtle pain from Kai’s relentless training, two days back. Every bruise and every sore muscle reminded me of how much stress he had put me through. And yet, he was nowhere to be found. Kai had vanished like a shadow in the presence of light, leaving

    SELENA’S POVI should have ran away after the first fault trial, I should. The fire made a noise through the trees I had burnt, and though the scent of burning wood was thick in the air—almost choking—my attention was fixed on the shadow emerging from within.Yes, it turned out to be Silas who stepped out from the smoke, untouched with his coat blowing behind him making him look like an agent of darkness. His face was scarily calm, too calm but the gleam in his eyes said something else—something like curiosity and hunger.“So,” his velvety voice came out. “You are indeed special.”I clenched my fists, trying to prepare more power to my fingertips, but Celestia’s energy was fading fast. She cowered within me, the usual strength I relied on was nowhere to be found. ‘You can't do this to me now, Celestia!’ I yelled at her, but she only made sad sounds.My hands trembled as I tried to summon more crimson energy, but it showed only weakly like a dying flame.“Go on,” Silas said, his tone

    KAI'S POVMy instincts told me she might be in trouble, and I was right. When I found her standing against Silas, barely able to invoke her power, something deep inside me stirred. Did she have no idea that there were dangers all around when she wandered off alone? She should have—She ought to have known that the other wolves were just getting used to having a stranger around them.And of all people, she had to fall into the trap of Silas. That goddamned betrayal I had no idea how he fathered me. Anger, fear or maybe the dangerous combination of the three had stirred within me, twisting my patience until I had to let out a loud roar.And now, as we walked through the forest together, I kept glancing at her. She was still shaken, though she tried to hide it behind a mask of confidence. Typical Selena. Always putting up walls.“When will you stop checking me out,” she looked up, taking me aback by looking me in the eyes. “Purr, I know I'm pretty but your gaze burns, please.” She chuckle

    DAMON’S POV“Yes, Damon! Yes.” She screamed, her voice harmonizing to the creaking sounds of the bed movements.Moans were supposed to fan the flame of desire, but the one that escaped her own mouth turned me off. Eventually, when she reached her peak, I pulled out of her, falling to her side of the bed as I tried to stabilize my breaths with the lingering aroma of passion.Elara let out a satisfactory sigh as she lounged in my bed, her white hair spilling over the dark sheets like a pool of blood. Her bare shoulders glistened in the dim light, and a smirk played on her lips as she traced lazy circles on her stomach.She ought to be my peace, yet even with her so close, my mind wasn’t at ease.“Still restless?” Elara purred, her voice silky and teasing. She rolled onto her side, propping her head on her hand. “You never did learn how to enjoy the moment, Damon.”I didn’t answer. Instead, I stood up and paced near the window, staring into the endless expanse of the forest. There was th

    SELENA’S POVTraining the cubs had been bringing a strange kind of peace to me over the days. For a while now, the heaviness that the past had planted in my chest disappeared, replaced by the innocence of their laughter. Today was no different, as I knelt beside a trembling pup, coaxing her through the transformation back to her human form. Her small body shimmered, and with Kai’s soothing encouragement, she shifted back, breathless but she was able to eventually.“Well done, Mira,” I praised, brushing a stray lock of hair from her face. Kai stood beside me, arms crossed, his gaze soft as he watched the cubs. His presence was steady, like the earth beneath my feet, and I hated how much comfort it brought me.“You’re good at this,” he murmured, his voice low enough for only me to hear.I tilted my head, offering a small smirk. “What? Turning cute pups into functioning wolves? It’s a talent.”Kai chuckled, the baritone sound rumbling deep in his chest. “I meant the way you guide them. P

    DAMON’S POVThe stench of blood and failure was all wafted in the air like a bitter perfume as I stepped into Silas' shrine. Right next to the altar, he laid like a discarded puppet, crumpled on the ground, barely conscious, face bloodied and bruised. For a man who had promised me so much, he looked more like a battered animal than the cunning strategist I had reluctantly trusted.“What a fool you are,” I growled, my voice cold and sharp enough to cut through any metal. My wolf, Demon, growled low in my mind, his disdain echoing my own. ‘This is the man you chose to align with? Pathetic.’“Silas!” My voice snapped across the clearing like a whip. He stirred in his unconsciousness, groaning as his broken body attempted to rise. “Look at you. You dared to carry out a plan behind my back, and this—this is the result? You have failed me!”Silas coughed, blood spilling from his lips. His gaze met mine, filled with defeat and desperation. “You don’t understand,” he coughed again. “I was so

    SELENA’S POVSo there I was, tied up like some damsel in distress, watching Kai go full beast mode on Silas. The ropes dug into my wrists, burning and biting with every movement I made, but watching my mate break free? Totally worth it.That smug jerk’s body was spread on the ground as he coughed and spat out blood when Kai loomed over him. His face was twisted in that classic villain look, the kind that says, ‘I should’ve won this, but I didn’t plan for the part where you would fight back.’“You don’t understand what you’ve unleashed,” Silas growled, his voice shaky but still laced with arrogance. “You can’t control it. You can’t control me.” I couldn't believe that even in his devastating state, he would still be choking out nonsense about how Kai didn't know about his own power. Typical monologue. But Kai? He wasn't having the least of it. Kai grinded his teeth, his eyes glowing with an intense kind of energy. It wasn’t just anger anymore in those eyes—I could see something prima

    KAI'S POVAlright, here was the deal: waking up to the mother of all migraines, tied to a rock, drenched in sweat, and oh yeah—my bond with Selena was being ripped apart like some cosmic breakup I didn’t sign up for. Cool, right? No, it wasn't. Let's go back in time for a moment.****At that moment, I felt like someone had tried to download a cursed app directly into my brain. My arms burned all over from the enchanted ropes, my head pounded like I had a bad hangover, and I was about two seconds from flipping my lid when I heard her.“Selena,” I croaked, my throat dry like I had been screaming for hours. Her scream had sounded desperate, and it yanked me out of the fog blinding my eyes. I forced my eyes open, barely managing to lift my head. And there she was. My mate, tied up, struggling like the badass she was.Except, something was wrong.The bond. Our mate bond. The connection that had always been there, like a pulse in the back of my mind, was… flickering. Weak. And that’s when

    SELENA'S POVOkay, so picture this: I woke up, tied to a freaking rock, and not in some fun, harmless way that could've turned out to be a prank. No, this is the “sacrificial lamb in an ancient evil ritual” kind of tied up. My first thought? This had to be a nightmare. Maybe this was just another flash of memory from my past life. But when I blinked, and the cold jagged surface of the big rock pinched my behind, I realized this wasn't a memory. This was real. And that brought me to my second thought: What the hell was going on?!The air surrounding me smelled wrong. I could perceive burnt herbs, sulfur, and something metallic like blood. I blinked, but twice this time as I tried to make sense of the scene around me. Dark shadows swirled across the rough cliffs that we were feets away from, the moon—my moon was barely visible behind what looked like a glow of crimson. It then hit me that we were in the middle of a lunar eclipse.Great. Just great. Perfect, in fact.I struggled my bes

    SILAS'S POVEvery atom in the air held magic—my magic. And as I walked through the corridor connecting my chamber to the entrance of the pack's territory, it clung to me like a shadow.I paused when I got to the gate, inhaling deeply as I prepared to proceed in my journey to Kai’s pack. The scent of the silver moon werewolves was all around me. Their scent was repugnant but tolerable, like animals in a poorly kept pen. Soon, it wouldn’t matter. None of this would matter when I take over. Damon’s recent instability worked to my advantage. Chaos always did.“Careful,” I murmured to myself, in a voice close to a whisper. “Patience wins wars.”I tightened the leather strap of my satchel and pressed forward. *****Present time…I reached the door I had been looking for. I could feel a faint golden glow of energy radiating from its edges, I could tell that Kai and Selena were near. Perfect, I muttered to myself. My lips curved into a smile as I retrieved a small glass vial from my satchel,

    DAMON'S POVPain.That was all I felt, and It was all-consuming. The ache felt like flames of fire licking at my insides, burning intensely at every muscle and bone. I gripped the edge of the ornate desk in my room, my knuckles turning white as I struggled to walk closer to the bed. I had no idea how I managed to put up a good act during the meeting with the pack elders, but now that I was alone, the pain penetrated into me like a thousand needles in my heart.And I knew why.I knew exactly why I was going through this agonizing moment. I knew that it was as a result of the dark energy I had stolen through Yasmine just to defeat Elara. Now I was ‘enjoying’ the side effect of having an unmatched power within me as it was ripping me apart from the inside.“You’re losing control,” Demon, my wolf whizzed inside my mind, heavy disapproval laced in his voice. “I told you this would happen.”“Shut up,” I growled aloud, my voice coming out hoarsely. “You think I don’t know that?”Another rus

    SELENA'S POVThe energy swirled about inside me. They felt like tiny sparks of fire dancing at the end of my fingertips. I could feel it growing, expanding, and threatening to escape out of control. My chest moved up and down as I tried to wind it with my energy. I tried pushing it outward in a steady beam of light, creating a barrier between me and the training dummies.“Focus, Selena,” Celestia urged, her voice strict but encouraging. She had been a good company throughout my training evening. “You need to concentrate on control, not force.”“I am focusing,” I muttered through gritted teeth in reply as sweat dripped down my eyebrow. My power was unpredictable sometimes, it would refuse to answer itself to my inner command. Every time I tried to push harder, it would backfire, quenching into nothingness. ‘Maybe you would do better if you weren’t thinking about him,’ Celestia sighed in such a way that I could sense the irritation in her.I stopped for a few seconds after she spoke a

    KAI'S POVI could still remember how exactly Renn had reposted Selena's reply to me. His tenoric voice echoed in my mind, and each syllable being replayed felt like a sharp blade in my chest. “She said she’s done chasing you, Kai.”Her rejection shouldn’t have stung as much as it did, but I have to admit, it hit me harder than I cared. Nyx snarled in frustration as we both reminisced about our rejection. ‘You’re a damn fool, Kai,’ he growled. ‘She’s your mate. The only one who will ever understand us, and you’re letting her slip away from your fingers.’“Don’t start again, Nyx. Give me a break.” I muttered under my breath, pacing to and fro the length of the dimly lit hallway outside the war room.‘Oh, I will start,’ Nyx snapped at me. ‘Do you know how hard it is to sit here and watch you push her away? Every time you shut her out, you shut me out too.’I clenched my fists, trying to ignore the guilt rising within me. “It’s not that simple,” I hissed, though it felt easy. “You know

    SELENA'S POVKai was avoiding me again.It shouldn’t have surprised me, but it hurt more than I wanted to admit. Every passing day without a word from him felt like a fresh rejection.I paced the grass field near the training grounds, clenching my fingers in frustration. ‘What was his problem? Why was he so distant?’ I thought back to the moments we had shared alone. The way his gaze lingered on mine, the way his touch had felt warm, protective, and… confusing, he had even kissed me!“He's such a stubborn idiot,” I muttered under my breath as I got closer to the training ground.‘He’s your mate,’ Celestia reminded me gently, her voice echoing in my mind like a soft melody. ‘And you love him.’“Love him?” I scoffed, running a hand through my dark hair. “How can I love someone who acts like I don’t exist half the time?”‘Because you see him for who he really is, Selena,’ Celestia replied in that annoyingly patient tone of hers. ‘Even when he’s pushing you away, you feel his pain.
