Seraphina’s POV

I had always known this day would come.

No secret stays buried forever.

Rex was supposed to disappear. That had been the plan. The necessary sacrifice.

I had done what had to be done for Crescent Moon, for Atlas, for the future of this pack.

Because I had seen it even then—the danger in Rex’s eyes, the defiance in his spirit. He was weak. A boy too soft for power yet too stubborn to break.

So I had removed him.

And now, he had returned.

Not as a lost heir, but as a king.

A king who could expose me.

And I would rather burn the world to the ground than let that happen.

I moved through the halls of Crescent Moon’s packhouse, my cane tapping against the polished wood floors. Warriors and Omegas bowed as I passed, their gazes lowered, their voices hushed.

They feared me.

As they should.

I had ruled from the shadows long before Atlas became Alpha, and I would continue to do so long after this mess was cleaned up.

  • My warrior mate's forbidden desire   Chapter 89

    Atlas’s POV Rex had haunted my thoughts for days. Every time I closed my eyes, I saw **flashes of memories I had long buried.** The scent of pine as we ran through the Crescent Moon forest as pups. The way our father had smiled at us—**at both of us.** The warmth of a bond that had once existed, severed before it had the chance to grow. I had spent my whole life believing my brother was dead. I had mourned him. I had moved forward without him. But now… now he was out there. Alive. And I wanted—**no, needed**—to see him. I needed to understand. What had happened to him? Why had he been taken? And most of all—why did he look at me like I was **his enemy?** I couldn’t stop thinking about the way his golden eyes had **hardened** when he saw me. Not with the recognition of a lost brother. But with the **calculating coldness of a man who had long abandoned the idea of family.** And that… That hurt more than I wanted to admit. I st

    Rex’s POVAtlas had sent a letter.I stared at the parchment on my desk, untouched, unread, yet somehow infuriatingly loud.It was strange—how something so small could ignite a fire in my chest, a mixture of rage and something I refused to name.I should have ignored it.Should have burned it.But instead, I had spent the last hour just staring at it.As if it held the answers to the questions I had stopped asking years ago.Why didn’t they come for me? Why was I left behind? Why did Atlas get to live the life that was stolen from me?And most of all—Why was he reaching out now?The room was dimly lit, the flickering candlelight casting long shadows against the stone walls.Shadowcrest had become my home, my fortress. I had built it from the ashes of my suffering, forged it into something indestructible.I took it from the pack forcefully from a traitor who betrayed Alpha Thor,kaida’s father.And yet, no matter how high I built my walls, no matter how much power I gained, there was

    Atlas’s POVThe air between us was thick with silence.I had imagined this meeting a thousand times.In my mind, I had pictured Rex angry, demanding answers. I had prepared for him to blame me, to scream, to tell me I wasn’t his brother anymore.I had prepared for hatred.But I hadn’t prepared for this.For the way he stood there, calm, calculating.For the way he refused to feel anything at all.He wasn’t angry.He was cold.And that scared me more than anything.“You haven’t answered me,” I said, my voice quiet.Rex tilted his head slightly. “What was the question again?”His lack of emotion twisted something inside my chest.I swallowed hard. “Do you hate me?”He exhaled slowly, as if the question bored him. “Would it matter if I did?”The words hit harder than they should have.“Yes,” I admitted. “It would.”Because no matter what had happened…No matter how much time had passed…He was still my brother.And I wasn’t ready to accept that I had already lost him.I took a slow step

    Rex’s POVAlpha Rex the old woman is making a move, she took advantage of your brother’s absence in the pack and mobilized his warriors who are loyal to her. I always knew Seraphina would come for me. She will try her dirty tricks again. She had **tried to erase me once before**—a shadow in the dark, a whisper of death sent to silence me before I could rise. The only difference is that am now matured enough to protect myself from a beast like her. This time, I was ready. And this time, she wouldn’t get another chance. I stood at the edge of my war tent, watching as my warriors prepared. The **Ironfang wolves** had pledged their loyalty to me, and Crescent Moon’s defectors—wolves who had finally seen the truth about Seraphina—had joined our ranks. My brother atlas sent some of his warriors to monitor seraphina’s movement ahead of time as if he knew she will strike and they are now part of my warriors. His simple gesture touched my heart. She thought she could take me down.

    Rex’s POVFor the first time in my adult life, I stood in Crescent Moon territory without a blade drawn, without the weight of war pressing down on my shoulders. Seraphina was **dead.** Her reign of control, of whispers and lies, had **finally ended.** And yet, as I stood beside my brother—the brother I had been raised to hate, to see as my enemy—I felt something I had not expected. **Relief.I had spent so long carrying **anger**, using it to fuel me, to push me forward. But now… There was nothing left to fight. Except, perhaps, for something I had **never let myself hope for.** A **family.** Atlas and I walked side by side toward the packhouse, the silence between us comfortable—no longer heavy with unspoken resentment. I glanced at him, smirking. “So… when do I get to meet your Luna?” Atlas sighed, rubbing his temples as if he already regretted this conversation. “Why do I feel like this is a terrible idea?” I chuckled. “Come on, Atlas.

    Rex’s POVWalking through Crescent Moon’s territory felt strange.It was both **familiar** and **foreign**, like the echoes of a past I had long been forced to forget. I passed the old training grounds, where Atlas and I had sparred as pups. The scent of pine and damp earth filled my nostrils, pulling me deeper into lost memories—ones I had buried beneath years of war and vengeance. But before I could sink further into the past, **something changed.** A scent. **Sweet. Addictive. Intoxicating.** My wolf **snapped to attention** so fast it nearly made me stumble. *Mate.* The word slammed through my mind like a bolt of lightning. *Mate. Mate.

As if, despite everything, **she was starting to want him too.** I stood behind Piper in my bedroom, carefully adjusting the fabric of her dress as she stared at herself in the mirror. Her expression was **unreadable**, her hands fidgeting slightly at her sides. "Okay, what’s that face for?" I asked, tilting my head. Piper sighed. "This just feels… weird." I arched a brow.

    Piper’s POV The night air was thick with celebration. Laughter, music, the scent of roasted meats and sweet honeyed drinks filled the courtyard. And yet, I could barely focus on any of it. Not when Rex was looking at me like that. Like he wanted to devour me whole. I swallowed hard, my body still buzzing from our earlier kiss. I had kissed him. And now, I wasn’t sure if I had made a **huge mistake or if I was already too far gone to turn back. Because the moment his golden eyes locked onto mine, I knew— I was in trouble. I tried to step away from the crowd, to put some distance between us, but Rex was already there. Blocking my path and Towering over me. His heat pressed against my skin, his scent wrapping around me like a wildfire. "Piper," he murmured, his voice rough and thick. I clenched my jaw, trying to ignore the way my stomach tightened. "I need air," I muttered. He smirked. "Then let me join you." "It’s not necessary—" But he was

    Atlas’s POV The sun rose over Crescent Moon, its golden light bathing the bloodstained battlefield** in an eerie glow. For the first time in weeks, the air was silent. No growls. No screams. No sounds of war. Just… silence. And yet, my body remained tense. Because this wasn’t over. Not yet. I stood on the balcony of the packhouse, overlooking the aftermath. **Scattered bodies** of fallen rogues lay across the courtyard, some already being removed by our warriors. The scent of smoke and blood still clung to the wind. Crescent Moon had survived. But at what cost? A part of me should have felt victorious. We had fought. We had won. Silas had been forced to retreat. And yet, as I watched the warriors move through the rubble, tending to the wounded, I didn’t feel victorious. I felt… exhausted. Drained in a way that had **nothing to do with battle wounds. Because Silas was still out there. And deep down, I knew he would return. A warm **hand touched my shoulder**,

    Atlas’s POV Silas’s claws **clashed** against mine. He was **faster and stronger than I thought . And worst of all—he was **playing with me.** I could see it in his **silver eyes**, the cruel amusement beneath every dodge, every **calculated strike**. He wasn’t fighting to kill. Not yet. He was **testing me. And that terrified me more than anything. I dodged a sharp swipe aimed at my throat, twisting and landing a solid punch to his ribs. Silas barely **flinched.** Instead, he grinned. “Come on, Atlas. You were raised to be better than this.” I **growled**, shifting into my wolf form, my golden fur **bristling** under the moonlight. Silas followed instantly, his **massive** form shifting—his silver fur **darker**, almost *shadowed.* Then, before I could react— He **lunged.** His fangs **clamped down on my shoulder, pain **exploding** through me as I hit the ground hard. Damn it—**he was faster than me. I roared, kicking him off, blood **dripping** from

  • My warrior mate's forbidden desire   Chapter 98

    Rex’s POV The scent of burning wood and blood filled my lungs as the courtyard erupted into chaos. The welcome party had transformed into a battlefield within minutes, and I knew immediately this wasn’t random. This was coordinated. Planned. My claws sank into the throat of the rogue in front of me, the crunch of bone sharp beneath my grip. I threw the lifeless body aside, my golden eyes scanning the battlefield. Where was Piper? The moment the attack started, my wolf had gone insane, demanding we find her. And when I finally spotted her, A snarl tore through my throat. She was surrounded. Three rogues circled her, their growls **low and taunting. Piper’s emerald dress was torn, the fabric stained with blood some of it hers, most of it theirs.** She stood her ground, her breath heavy but steady. And in one swift movement, she sidestepped, dodging the attack before **plunging her claws into his chest. He dropped like a stone. The other two hesitated.

    Kaida’s POV Laughter still echoed through the air as the celebration continued, but my focus was elsewhere. The figure in the shadows had vanished, but the unease in my chest remained. I knew peace wouldn’t last forever. **It never did.** I glanced at Atlas, who was laughing at something Axel had said, his golden eyes alight with happiness. I wanted him to have this. I wanted all of us to have this. But something was coming. And I could feel it like a storm on the horizon. As the party stretched into the late hours of the night, I decided to step away from the crowd, letting the cool night air clear my mind. The packhouse loomed in the distance, lanterns flickering against the walls. And then, just as I reached the gardens— A voice whispered from the darkness. “He’s watching." I froze, my heart slamming against my ribs. Slowly, I turned, my wolf threatening to come out when she sensed danger. "Who’s there?" I demanded, my wolf stirring uneasi
