last update Last Updated: 2025-03-29 17:34:54

CALHOUN'S POV

“Kill him,” I commanded coldly. A hybrid who dared to invade my land deserves no mercy.

Hybrids, a mix of werewolf and human, often too arrogant to know their place—have always coveted purebred werewolf lands,

It was during a war with their race that I lost someone dear; her death became my driving force to never let any harm come to the citizens of our kingdom.

“Please, spare my life, ple—” His cries were cut short as my beta’s claws tore through his throat, silencing him forever.

“Deliver his head to their king,” I said curtly, adjusting my tuxedo as I strode out of the dungeon, Logan trailing behind me.

“We’ll be late by the time we arrive,” Logan remarked as we climbed the dimly lit staircase leading to the hallway.

“What’s the saying again... hmm.” I paused, smirking.

“Fashionably late is worth the wait,” Logan chuckled, finishing my thought.

I grinned. The thought of seeing my brother, King Everon, at the Crescent Ball intrigued me. “It’s been too long since I visi

What do you say?” His warm breath, which was strongly scented with alcohol, tickled my skin.His contact caused my jaw to tighten and my skin to prickle with irritation. A wave of desire hit me before I could react, it took my breath away. The most stunning dark blue eyes I had ever seen drew my attention to the French doors.It took all of my willpower to resist the want to jump into his arms as a pool of moisture gathered between my thighs.His clothing emphasized his broad shoulders and lean figure as he stood erect. His powerful features and prominent cheekbones were framed by strands of dark brown hair—a living embodiment of perfection.His gaze moved to Asher, and a low growl reverberated in his chest. Then he strode forward and threw a swift punch.“Asher!” I gasped as he staggered back, groaning.“Keep your hands off what’s mine, or I’ll cut them of

    HERA'S POVI tossed on the bed, consciousness creeping in as sunlight sliced through the curtains. Blinking against the glare, I groaned, “Ugh, yesterday was a disaster.”My thoughts drifted to the mate I met last night. Technically, he wasn’t my mate—he was Hera’s. Still, he’d managed to ruin everything I had carefully planned.With a huff, I threw the blanket aside and headed to the bathroom. At least I wouldn’t have to see him again, and hopefully, he had no clue I was from Silverfang. The last thing I needed was him chasing me. Love and mates? Not in this lifetime—or the next, if there was one.After a quick shower, I slipped into black boyfriend jeans and a cropped hoodie. The clothes were new, and thank Goddess Selene for that. Hera’s frilly wardrobe would’ve made me sick.It was 11 a.m. when I stepped into the hallway. The mansion’s ornate decor glared back at me—fancy paintings, stylish fluorescents, all reminders of the life Hera had run away from. Turning a corner, I nearly

Why did you suddenly change your mind?”She turned to look for whatever had caught my attention, but I grabbed her by the shoulder, turning her back. My voice firm, I let my authority seep through. “Let’s go. I’m not done exploring the pack.”She fell silent, but I could see the doubt lingering in her eyes as she led the way.I was lost in thought until Melissa’s voice cut through. “Why did you run from the Crescent Ball last night?”“I got overwhelmed and needed some air,” I said, trying to keep my tone neutral. “It had been a long time since I was in such a gathering.”The silence stretched, but her doubt was palpable. She pressed on. “I saw you being chased by Alpha Calhoun. What was that about?”The realization hit me like a punch. The man I’d been waiting for all night—Alpha Calhoun—was my mate.“U

    CALHOUN'S POV She opened her mouth to speak but snapped it shut when no words came. Perhaps I was too direct. Too bad—I meant every word. “I’ll die before I let you have me!” she snorted, her glare fiery. Something in the way she resisted me made my dick throb with desire. The smile slipped from my lips. I stood and stalked toward her, gripping her chin between my thumb and forefinger. Her body betrayed her, reacting to my touch despite her defiance. “Don’t say that, Tiger. It’s not in your power to decide.” My voice was low, tinged with frustration. “Stop fighting the bond. You’re only torturing us both.” The maddening urge to pin her against the wall, to be buried in her warmth and savour her delicate skin against mine, tested my self-control. Her eyes flicked to my lips, but she yanked her gaze upward, replacing her fluster with a scowl. She pulled away, a storm of emotions swirling in those beautiful eyes. “Stay away from me and don’t get in my way,” she hissed. Flipping her

    HERA'S POV His touch was electric and ignited a fire in me. I wasn’t meant to feel this way, yet every part of my body hummed his name, yearning to be touched. My wolf paced restlessly in my mind, eager for him—this was her fault. I gathered my thoughts and struggled to free myself from his tight grip. “Let me go!” I demanded, my voice breathless. But he didn't listen. His gaze held me captive, indecipherable dark pools, that sent a shiver down my spine. His hands shifted to hold my neck firmly. Every movement caused my heart to race. A teasing smirk pulled at his lips, his voice low, husky, and dripping with want. “If you stripped and got on your knees to beg, maybe I will.” The way he said it sparked a heat inside me that I couldn’t contain, but I refused to let him see how badly it affected me. “Keep dreaming, I would never” I shot back. Shamelessly, I waited, heart pounding as he closed the distance between us. His lips brushed my neck, and I felt my pulse spike, my cente

    CALHOUN'S POV My pants were uncomfortably tight, my throbbing dick painfully hard. The unfulfilled urge to knot Hera, pulsated through my veins, edging me to the brink of madness. But that wasn’t why I was seething at the dining table. My pack had been attacked by hybrids. How they infiltrated us was still under investigation, but the attack had claimed the life of a werewolf and his child. I’d failed them. My wolf howled with rage, a reminder of my duty. Protecting my pack came first, yet Alpha Draco’s shady dealings had stolen my focus. That distraction wouldn’t last much longer. The cold aura I emitted made Draco and my mate visibly uneasy. Their wolves bowed under my dominance, though Draco fought to hide it. Hera, however, avoided my gaze like the plague, her fidgeting only twisting the knife in my chest. Her cold words still lingered in my mind. What had scarred her so deeply? Beneath her tough facade, I saw a woman hurting. My goal was to find out why and take the pain awa
