CARLOS POV

As soon as I left the office, I made my way to Roseflower apartment with Justin who was already fully awake.

“ Carl, what if your mate sees us? Your mate is damn scary." He feigned a look of fear, as he stared around.

I rolled my eyes at him. “ She has a name, Justin. Could you stop calling her my mate?”

Listening to people referring to Aria as my mate had always pissed me off for no obvious reason. It was indeed my choice to choose her, but why was I so against her?

" And she is your mate, too. You know, you are the first person I have seen who vehemently denies his mate after accepting her.”

I ignored his ranting, making my way inside the apartment. There was a dimly lit hallway inside the apartment that leads to the main area. As soon as I walked through the long hallway, the sound of blaring music filled the air.

It was a secret clubhouse. I walked briskly to a secluded spot with enough view to see all

I grunted, giving him a morning glare. “ You scared the shit out of me."“ Did I?" He grinned wider.“ Isn't it obvious? And what the hell are you doing in my room so early?" I scolded, sitting my ass on my bed.“ Early? Nora, the sun had risen more than two hours ago." He rolled his eyes, sitting down comfortably on my couch.“ Don't you have work to do?" I asked, trying to get him out of my room.“ I will soon be off. I just came to remind you that your training starts tomorrow morning. You can rest only for today." His tone was final. Why does everyone want me to train badly? “ I think I would just go and jog first." I responded, yawning again. I had woken up a little late after what happened last night. After getting home last night, I snuck back into my room. And not until the early hours of today, did I fall as

    Nora POVAria's grip on my neck had become suffocating and all I wanted to do was push her off but perhaps I used too much force as what happened next was too fast to comprehend.But at that same instance, I felt a presence behind me and without turning my back I knew who it was. What I don't understand was his reason for coming here again.“ Karen-" But before I could even process his presence, he seemed to push my back slightly as if transferring his strength to me. To the onlookers, it would seem as though he transferred his energy to me, shooting out to "push" Aria with a burst of force. Aria stumbled backward, her eyes wide with surprise, as she crashed into a nearby tree trunk.With a loud bang and the shattering sounds of broken bones, I stood frozen, my eyes fixed on the flying figure of Aria. Her painful grunts and growls could be heard all over the training ground.Karen just saved me. The sound of the impact echoed through the training ground, and all eyes turned to the

Walking behind him was Alpha Carlos whose eyes were hooked on the same Karen.“ The beta of the Eagle Pack sure knows how to welcome a distinguished guest!" Karen sneered, placing his hands in his pocket.My brother was about to retort when I quickly delved in." Bro, he was sent by the Lycan King to deliver a message.” That stopped Justin and even got the attention of Alpha Carlos, who stepped forward. Karen must have guessed his Alpha aura and knew that he was my once rejected mate. “ Sorry for the reception. I heard I was getting delegate from the Lycan Kingdom but I never expected to see you here,” Alpha Carlos stated, stretching his hands for a handshake.I could sense hostility oozing from my teacher and my rejected mate. What I don't understand was why Alpha Carlos was getting hostile toward

My parents and brother both have their spare key, so I wouldn't be disturbed. As soon as I got into my room, I quickly laid on the bed like a log of wood. That was how I slowly drifted off to sleep, making sure to savor every single second of my time alone.I wanted to forget everything about what happened. But I guess if wishes were horses, beggars would ride! A sudden knock at the door jolted me awake, and I sat up with a start. Who could be visiting at such an ungodly hour? It couldn't have been my parents because they have access to the house. I tossed on a dressing gown and made my way to the entrance, peering through the peephole to only to find a surprise, looking at the grim-faced Alpha Carlos standing on my porch. His eyes gleaming

Even if the Alpha of the pack was my enemy, I still need to protect the lives of my loved ones.This letter sounded too ominous to be left unattended. I was already having a bad feeling about the meeting. I sat down on the couch, my thoughts running wildly.“ Why are these people being sneaky with scary messages at night?” I kept murmuring non-stop. With my eyes tightly closed again, I tried to focus on my preparations for the ball, but my thoughts kept drifting back to the mysterious note. “ Urgh! What is wrong with me?" As the minutes ticked by, I found myself glancing at the wall clock, my heart racing with anticipation and a hint of anxiety. Who was waiting for me in the garden? Could it be someone in the pack who guessed my secret? No, that was impossible because I was extremely careful. Besides the potion hides my aura very well. It wouldn't be easy to detect even if they are of higher rank. Th

I glanced around and found out I was not at the same place again. I couldn't find Aria or her minions.As if he read my thoughts, Karen spoke up." Luckily, I was still around when I felt the signal that you were in danger. I rushed here just in time.”" What happened-to them?” I asked, still glancing around." I have taken care of them. When I got here, I saw you lying unconscious and a few other werewolves. I took care of them and brought you here so I could revive your energy. Obviously, you were pierced with wolfsbane.”" Wolfsbane?” I asked, surprised." Yeah. That girl really wants you dead.” Karen said, sighing.I bit down my lips." You said you took car

    NORA POV I left the training ground, making my way back to the house. I wanted to go home and have a good rest before the ball tomorrow. It was also time for my next mission. I only wanted to come to the pack to make my parents and brother leave so I could wage war against it. I also wanted to see if these people had changed their ways. Apparently, they were still like before. Bullying the weak and worshiping the strongest. Aria was the perfect example. The pack members were only obeying her because she was apparently going to be the Luna. That's why they don't mind bullying me, the weak human. And Alpha Carlos? He was no different. Even if he was, I still can't forgive him for wanting to kill me. If I wasn't a Lycan, I would have died on that fateful night. Few minutes later, I got to my house and was welcomed with a big smile from my mother. Her eyes sparkling with excitement. There seems to be something fishy. This woman was definitely up to something. "Nora, dear, I have a s

Alpha Carlos’ smug face stared back at me, his eyes gleaming with amusement. "Nora?"With a quick smile, I bowed slightly to him. “ Oh, Alpha Carlos. I'm so sorry. I wasn't watching where I was going."“ What are you doing here?" He ignored my apologies, his eyes looking at me with a raised brow.“ It's a club, Alpha Carlos," I stated, staring back at him with same expression.“ A club? Just like other clubs closer to the pack. Why here?” His question made me frown. What the hell does he mean by that?I scoffed at his words. What an arrogant person.“ I don't think it's any of your business where I chose to club, Alpha Carlos." With a scowl on his face which clearly stated his opinion, he held my hand tightly. He dragged me to the opposite direction to where I was going and I tried to pull my hands away. “ Let go o

My kids hugged me, excited to finally have me back. After a while, Carlos came to sit beside me. "Nora!" His hands were on me instantly, checking for wounds that were no longer there. "Thank the Moon Goddess. You're awake."My head spun as memories flooded back —the attack in the forest, the children screaming, claws tearing into my flesh. I should be dead. By all rights, I should be dead.Carlos handed me a glass of cold water. "You need this." As I gulped the cool liquid, my eyes caught sight of something across the room a small form lying motionless on the floor, surrounded by my aunt. Blood pooled beneath her.The mute girl. "What happened?" I demanded, pushing the glass away. "Why is she bleeding?"Carlos followed my gaze, his expression grim. "She saved you. Took your wounds somehow."I

Their forms seemed to waver between solid and smoke, power radiating off them in waves that made my wolf recoil. Ancient beings. Powerful. Deadly."Get away from her!" I roared, my voice breaking with desperation.One of them turned slowly, revealing a face that wasn't quite human— eagyes too large, skin too pale. When it smiled, its teeth were needle-sharp."The mate arrives," it said, voice like breaking glass. "Just in time to watch her die."Rage exploded through me. I didn't care if they could kill me with a thought. I wouldn't let Nora die while I stood by. I charged forward, shifting mid-stride, claws extending as I leapt toward the nearest figure.I was still trying to think about my next move. I was confused about everything, and what step to take forward. But I was certain about one thing.

    Carlos POVI moved towards my office window, and saw Griffin walking away from the pack house. I watched Griffin's retreating back, fighting the urge to slam him against the nearest wall. His arrogance was infuriating, but I needed to keep a level head. This wasn't about my personal dislike for the man—it was about protecting Nora and our pack.As soon as he disappeared around the corner, I pulled out my phone and called Elder Silvarum. I needed to speak with him personally. The message I sent to him was not even enough. The phone barely rang once before he answered."Carlos," his gravelly voice came through the line. "I've been expecting your call.""You always are," I said, a warm smile playing on my face despite the circumstances. "I need your counsel. It's about Griffin.""I know that already." I could hear the rustling of papers on his end. "You mentioned him in your letter."I moved to my table, keeping my voice low. "He's in love with Nora. I can use that, turn him against th

    THIRD POVThe attack came at dawn, when the mist still clung to the ground and visibility was poor. Not with armies or weapons, but with whispers.The guards patrolling the pack borders heard them first—soft, melodic voices calling their names, luring them into the tree line. Two guards disappeared before the others raised the alarm.By mid-morning, the pack house was in lockdown. Carlos had doubled the guard, positioning his strongest fighters at every entrance. No one entered or left without his direct approval."We do not understand what happened. We just heard whispers, and some of the guards were already gone without trace," one of the guards reported to Carlos. Carlos's jaw tightened. "They're testing our defenses, looking for weaknesses.""But who are 'they'? We've seen nothing, no tracks, no scents."The pack was beginning to panic. They spent time trying to figure out what was going on and how to stop whatever danger was lurking. Carlos was more worried than everyone else.

    THIRD POVGriffin leaned against the wall outside the dining hall, waiting. He'd been strategically positioning himself in Nora's path for days now, trying to catch a moment alone with her. He had become a regular face at the pack house. No one bothered themselves with his presence that much anymore. When she finally emerged, he straightened."Nora," he called, his voice softer than usual. "Can we talk?"She glanced his way, her expression hardening instantly. Without a word, she turned in the opposite direction."Please," Griffin said, catching up to her in a few long strides. "Just five minutes.""I have nothing to say to you," Nora replied coldly, quickening her pace.Griffin reached for her arm but stopped himself before making contact. "You've been acting cold towards me for no reason. If it's something I did wrong, then don't you think we should talk about it instead? Nora scoffed. "Talk about it?" She asked. "Why do you even think you did anything wring? I mean, no one has a

  • Nora: Rejected Lost Princess    Shocked

    THIRD POVGriffin moved stealthily through the west wing of the house, keeping to the shadows. Three days of careful observation had finally paid off—he now knew the identities of at least four of the sorceress's spies embedded within Nora's pack. Most of them were unimportant, and I had not decided what to do with the knowledge yet. But the main spy, the one coordinating it all, remained elusive. It was more difficult to find out who it was. The sorceress and the main spy were being too careful with their interactions, so it was more difficult to find out. "Damn it," Griffin muttered, ducking into an alcove as footsteps approached. He'd been so close to discovering who was reporting directly to the sorceress, the puppet master controlling the others.As the footsteps faded, Griffin slipped out again, heading toward the garden where he could think without interruption. His head throbbed with the effort of keeping up appearances, pretending loyalty to the sorceress while secretly wor

    NORA POVI sank onto the edge of my bed, fingers still trembling from what I'd seen in the forest. My chambers offered little comfort tonight, I buried my face in my hands, trying to steady my breathing. I tried to convince myself that what I heard was not real. It was all my imagination. But then, no matter how I tried to convince myself, it would not change the fact. I was struggling to steady my breathing and my heart rate. A knock came at the door, interrupting my thoughts. I felt indifferent about it. Someone was finally here to help take my mind off the thoughts. Again, I felt like I needed time alone to think about everything I had seen. The knock came again, and immediately, Carlos voice followed. "Nora?" Carlos's called hesitantly. "May I come in?"I didn't answer, but he entered anyway. That was Carlos, always assuming he knew what was best."I saw you walk into your room, looking disheveled," He crossed the room and sat beside me, careful to keep some distance between

    NORA'S POVI stared out the window of my chambers, watching Carlos train with his warriors in the courtyard below. His movements were precise, and powerful.How could I reconcile these two versions of him? The gentle Carlos who I love so much, and the ons in my memory.The past two weeks had been a nightmare of confusion. Ever since I'd touched the pendant in that hidden room, memories had been returning in disjointed flashes. Scenes of violence and loss that left me breathless with grief and rage. And always at the center of these visions was Carlos, giving orders that resulted in flames and death.Yet something deep inside me resisted fully embracing these memories. Something whispered that there was more to the story, pieces I was still missing.A lot had been going on lately. I had intentionally kept my distance from Carlos.

My lycan form moved with speed no ordinary human could match, leaping over fallen logs and weaving between trunks with fluid grace.Gradually, the blind rage and frustration began to fade. My breathing evened, and my mind cleared enough to think. I slowed my pace, eventually coming to a stop beside a small mountain stream. The water ran clear and cold over smooth stones, and I lowered my muzzle to drink deeply before shifting back to human form.Naked and exhausted, I sat on a boulder by the water's edge, letting the cool night air dry the sweat from my skin. My thoughts inevitably turned to Nora.Despite everything. Despite the bind thaf the sorceress had me in, despite my hatred for Carlos, I couldn't deny that something
