Arnold

Even she possesses a strength that surpasses mine; I can sense it. She’s not just any ordinary she-wolf, which intrigues me. Forget the ridiculous notion of the infinity mark; I’m determined to claim her for myself. I just need to devise a careful strategy to make her mine, as I want her by my side. However, there’s a significant hurdle: if I eliminate Drew, she will perish too, so I must come up with a clever plan.

By now, I’m certain she has informed Drew about our encounter. Honestly, I expected him to storm into my room, furious, but to my surprise, he didn’t. I relish seeing him angry; if I can’t outshine him, I’ll use what he holds dear against him.

From the moment he joined our pack, he became the beloved Drew, the one my father wishes he could claim as his own son instead of me. I had hoped we would become great friends, that he would be like a younger brother to me. But everything changed on that fateful day when my father summoned us both for a wrestling match; that w

  • My nemesis turns out to be my mate    Deep seated grudge

    I freshened up and headed straight to Arnold's room, my mind racing. Sleep had eluded me all night, haunted by the thought of that jerk telling Felicity he had feelings for her. What was he trying to achieve? Was it some twisted game to get under my skin? If that was his goal, he certainly succeeded. As I stood there, lost in my thoughts, Abigail appeared, her voice breaking through my frustration. "What are you doing here so early, Drew?" I turned to her, irritation bubbling beneath the surface. "Where's your brother?" I asked, trying to keep my tone even. "My brother? He's with the alpha. Seriously, Drew, these past couple of days have changed you," she replied, concern etched on her face. Abigail had always harbored feelings for me, a fact I was painfully aware of. She confessed her crush the first time I shifted at fourteen, but I had to turn her down, knowing I was already committed to someone else. That moment seemed to spark her obsession, leading her to tell everyone we wer

  • My nemesis turns out to be my mate    Feeling of confinement

    I stirred awake to find Drew's side of the bed chillingly empty. Curiosity tugged at me—when had he slipped out? I stood up from bed and made my way to the bathroom, realizing with a jolt that my impromptu stay had left me without any of my belongings. I reluctantly grabbed Drew's toothbrush, used his soap, slathered on his lotion, and slipped into one of his oversized shirts. Looks like I’d be donning the pants he lent me yesterday once more.Emerging from the room, I padded into the kitchen, my stomach growling in protest. "Felicity, are you skipping class today?" Patricia called out, her voice bright. I approached her as she handed me a plate piled high with fresh toast, beans, and eggs, accompanied by a steaming cup of cocoa. "No classes for me today; they start tomorrow. Thanks for checking in, Patricia." A thought struck me. "Oh, I heard that your mate Matt is returning from his trip."Patricia's face lit up at the mention of his name, a giggle escaping her lips. "Where did you

  • My nemesis turns out to be my mate    Scolding

    Gideon is seated in the living room, enjoying the coffee I prepared for him, while I gather my belongings—just my clothes, jewelry, and essential items like my handouts. I take a final glance around my room and let out a deep sigh. After the mating ceremony, I will have to say an indefinite farewell to this house filled with cherished memories.I wish my parents were here; I miss them deeply. This is why I try to avoid thinking about them, as it brings an overwhelming sadness. If my father hadn't passed away under such mysterious circumstances, would my life have taken a different path? I feel a profound sense of loneliness, but at least I have Drew now—someone I can truly call my own.I quickly wiped away the tears that had fallen, not wanting to cause Gideon any concern. As I stepped out of the room, I noticed he had already finished his coffee. "It seems you left your phone in the car; Master Drew was quite worried," he said with a chuckle, and I couldn't help but laugh along. That

    My cheeks burned with embarrassment, and I felt as if I could faint. He pulled away from the kiss, laughing, while I instinctively covered my face, wishing I could disappear. He led me to the pack house and went directly to his room. "I hate you," I managed to utter. He set me down with a smug grin, and I noticed my bags already in the room. "How did these get here?" I inquired. He glanced at them and replied, "Is this everything you brought? Gideon dropped them off while I was reprimanding you." If that was a reprimand, it wasn't so bad. "Yes, this is all I need," I confirmed, and he hummed in response.His gaze was fixed on me, and I could sense the desire radiating from him; it felt as if he wanted to consume me entirely. "Where were you?" I interrupted his reverie. "There was an issue at the border; I went with my father," he explained. I nodded, asking, "Is it resolved?" "I don't think so, Felicity. It's the rogue from the east," he continued. "They've been involved in illegal ac

    The past few days have been quite challenging, though I did enjoy the time spent with Drew. Attending college alongside Gideon, who is like a warrior by my side, This has been an experience that I really do not like. I’ve been participating in lectures aimed at preparing me to become the future Luna, taught by the instructor selected by the Luna herself.To be honest, the tasks they’ve outlined aren’t as daunting as they portray. The Luna’s responsibilities seem minimal compared to the weight they place on them, making it feel as if my entire future hinges on this training. Drew often finds humor in my situation, teasing me about the weight I’ve lost in just four days under the guidance of his mother and my instructor.Right now, I’m in class, and guess who’s sitting in the corner? Gideon. It’s amusing that he, a man with his own family, has been assigned to me. It’s not as if I’m incapable of taking care of myself, but I suppose I can understand the Luna’s reasoning; I don’t often di

    I turned to the warrior named Reggie, who was trembling in sheer terror at my discovery. Little did he know, my initial plan was to eliminate him and seize the drug for myself. But then a more cunning thought struck me: instead of killing him, why not extract information about how he acquired it? I approached him as he instinctively recoiled."There's no need to be afraid, Reggie. Where did you get this?" I inquired, fully aware that it couldn't have come from the stash my father had confiscated—its location was a mystery even to me. Reggie's expression shifted to one of surprise; he likely expected his life to end at that moment. "I got it from one of the suppliers, young alpha. Please, don’t turn me in! I’ll do anything you ask," he pleaded, desperation lacing his voice. A sly grin spread across my face; I realized I could manipulate Reggie to serve my needs.From that day forward, Reggie became my go-to supplier. He would procure the substance from shadowy figures and deliver it to

    Maya pleaded with her parents and brother, her voice trembling as she said, "Please don’t go, don’t leave me. I can’t face this without you. Take me with you." However, they all wore the same serene smile, which left her confused. She couldn’t comprehend their expressions; they had been taken from her, and she felt desperate for them to take her along. Instead, they were offering her their final farewell. Suddenly, she caught a familiar scent in the air, one that enveloped her senses. This wasn’t the moment to be distracted by a fragrance. As she opened her eyes, she realized the room was completely dark. "Is this a dungeon?" she wondered, but then a voice broke the silence, saying, "Oh dear, this is not a dungeon. Are you implying my room isn’t suitable? I can’t complain, though, since it’s not really mine." She sat up, straining to see the source of the voice. Closing her eyes and reopening them didn’t change her surroundings; she was still enveloped in darkness. Was this some

    As alpha Kendrick emerged from his shock, he demanded, "What did you just say to me?" She reiterated, "I said your offspring will die when they turn sixteen." In response, one of the warriors struck her, causing her to collapse to the ground. She realized she had to kill alpha Kendrick before she is completely knocked out."Bring her to me," he ordered, and they pulled her across the floor toward him. A smirk appeared on her face as he seized her by the hair, glaring at her with contempt. "Repeat what you have just said," he insisted. She met his gaze, and instead of fear, he was met with a smile. In an instant, she cast a spell, causing him to release her hair and clutch his throat, gasping for air. "Alpha!" the warriors shouted in alarm.Alpha Altair stood frozen, observing the scene unfold before him. Before she was dragged in, her scent had enveloped him, she probably is his Kendrick's prisoner, but then his wolf had recognized her as his mate.He struggled to maintain his composu

    In a fog-laden forest, a woman lay bound, her legs and hands restrained, her mouth gagged, she who is teetering on the edge of consciousness. Two warriors guiding her while four others prepared their evening meal, laughter echoing through the trees.Struggling to breathe, she had been a captive for days, deprived of food and water. One soldier, noticing her frailty, taunted, "What? Thirsty? Should I offer you my piss instead?" Their laughter rang out, mocking her plight.Exhausted and devoid of strength, she could neither fight back nor respond. A dark thought crossed her mind: if only death would come for her."You’re fortunate that the alpha of the Full Moon pack desires you; otherwise, you’d be dead alongside the rest of your family," one warrior remarked. The mention of the pack sent a shiver through her; her only desire now was to kill the alpha of the Full Moon pack.She longed for the moment she could confront him, to avenge her family’s death. His insatiable lust had led to th

    Felicity The following day, our pack readied itself to confront the Arcade pack, having received word that they were en route. Even the Luna expressed her desire to join the battle, vowing to eliminate Alpha Winter if the situation escalated.I remain unaware of the specifics regarding Luna Lagartha's situation, but it is evident that she has been subjected to her worst fears, which she undoubtedly deserves. In truth, I felt a twinge of sympathy for her which was why I considered handing her over to Luna Claire. If it were up to me, I would ensure her suffering was prolonged as I drained her life force.The alarm rang out, and in the distance, the Arcade warriors became visible, some in human form while others had shifted to their wolves. Leading them was Alpha Winter.Finally, the prey had arrived at the site of his demise, I mused.Drew stepped forward, poised to attack Alpha Winter, when the latter suddenly declared, "Release my wife,

    Gavin The children appeared utterly worn out, and I quickly understood her true intention for approaching me; it was not to seek assistance but rather to take the children away. She was more than capable of managing Lagartha and her followers on her own.Once the children had cleaned up and I had given them fresh clothing, I cast a spell to induce sleep. The spell worked almost instantly, primarily because they had not enjoyed a proper night's rest since their abduction.They looked frail and disheveled, having endured experiences that even adults struggle to comprehend, and they would carry the scars of their trauma for a long time.I sincerely hope that Lagartha faces severe consequences for the suffering she has inflicted on these young ones. As I settled down with my coffee, I sensed Felicity's presence once more, but this time she was accompanied by her partner."Is everything resolved?" I inquired, to which Drew nodded. "Unfortunat

    Lagartha I sprinted through the forest, my magic inexplicably failing me at the worst possible moment. I had to reach the pack house urgently to warn my mate. As I dashed through the trees, I hoped the witches could delay Felicity, even though I knew she could eliminate them in an instant. Still, any delay would buy me precious time.I was nearly at the pack house, just a few feet away from Winter, when I suddenly heard someone call my name, "Lagartha." My pace quickened, and tears began to well in my eyes. This was not the moment for tears; I needed to reach Winter without delay.But then, all my hope shattered as a powerful gust of wind lifted me off my feet, and I crashed into a tree. I felt a rib snap and winced in agony.I couldn't succumb like this; I still had my revenge to claim. Struggling to rise, the pain was unbearable. With the last remnants of my magic, I attempted to heal myself while hiding beneath the tree. "Lagartha, hiding won'

    FelicityRecognizing that I couldn't tackle this challenge on my own, I approached Gavin before taking any further steps.He was in his small corner preparing a cup of coffee. It struck me how much he had matured into a man, and I felt a pang of regret for not embracing him when we last met. I had left him to navigate this world alone, succumbing to the grief of losing my mate, Damien.He remained unaware of my presence until I cleared my throat, prompting him to spin around in surprise. "Oh, wow, what are you doing here? How did you get in?" he exclaimed, bewildered as he scanned the area. "I reinforced this place so that no one could just walk in like..." His voice trailed off as he stared at me in disbelief.I offered him a warm smile. "Hey there, I could really use your help. Time isn't on my side," I said. In his shock, he accidentally dropped his coffee, spilling it on the floor. "You remember?" he asked, prompting me to nod my head.

    FelicityWe laid alpha Dominic to rest among his ancestors, and it was undeniably a somber day for everyone involved. Drew masked his pain well, but I could sense the turmoil within him, echoing my own sorrow.Luna Claire, on the other hand, chose not to attend her husband's funeral. The reality of his death weighed heavily on her, and while I empathize with her grief, I cannot fathom why she seeks to place the blame on me.I felt a surge of gratitude when Drew defended me, yet it does little to change the way she regards me with such bitterness.As soon as the burial concluded, Arnold's image dominated the media—every magazine, every article, every news broadcast. I remain uncertain about my mate's intentions regarding the Arcade pack.At this moment, he is an enigma, reminiscent of his former self. "What will you do now?"
