[Ezra]Asher picked up her phone and read the news:Bride or luna?In the recent visit to the mortal realm, Alpha Ezra Xipher declared the triplet’s bride as the luna of the Prime Infernal pack in front of the demon and mortal witnesses.Sources claim the triplets have finally found the one they wer
And that’s how, from being the future Luna of the pack, Viella became just one of the potential candidates, a status she didn’t accept.She was confident that she’d become the luna one day, and I wondered where her confidence came from.Yes, she was a powerful woman with wits and best immortality ge
“Huh! How can you be so blind, Asher?” she gritted her teeth. “Your brothers are trying to take away everything you have built. They are a threat to your position. They are weakening your standing as an alpha. They don’t want to deal with the complicated stuff, but they have no problem reaping the p
[Raven]“Ciao, Alpha Raven. It’s been a while,” Draknor, our beta, greeted me with a smile, making his icy gaze feel colder.I just stared back, not bothering to return the fake pleasantries.“It’s so rare to see you around here. I thought you abhorred this place,” Draknor said, his voice dripping w
The High Elder’s seat was in the largest balcony of the first floor. The High Elder represented all the elders’ voices and was also the speaker of the council.The special jury created for the Luna selection sat on the upper balcony, their presence hidden in the shadows. It was because of their fea
I knew she meant every word she said. When she could force herself to give exams with a broken hand, I knew she could do anything for her dreams.Good for her and me. I didn’t have to delay her admission.***Asher got to his feet, and the hall followed him.What a pain.With a heavy sigh, I got to
He didn’t have to change if he didn’t want to. But if he chose to toddle, his brothers would be walking right behind him, crushing everyone who got in his way, breaking every hand that tried to hold him back.‘Imagine everyone before you as sushi.’ I mindlinked with Ezra.Ezra looked at me.I smirke
[Raven]Ezra stopped typing on the keyboard, ending the five heavy minutes that felt like five hours because of all the tension it created in the hall. The wall screen was a mess of complex code and algorithms running independently now.The hall was crammed with an uneasy silence. Every eye was glue
The controllers frequently singled out groups of weak bloods, forcing them into perilous situations before kidnapping the survivors under the cover of night. These survivors were subjected to experiments, injected with various drugs, and then sent back within the walls.Most died, but those who surv
[Xanthea]Asher’s tone grew heavier and I could see why through my mother’s memories.“The weak bloods were promised a permanent secure shelter within these walls…”All the giant gates and smaller exits of the walls were closed, trapping all the weak bloods while they were fast asleep.For the first
Waiting, uncertain if someone would show up, was the worst feeling. I knew because I’d felt it when I called Ezra for help with the kids and waited. Those few minutes shattered me. I couldn’t even imagine what six-year-old Ezra endured, waiting for years.“A girl had been observing Ezra all this tim
The soft flutter in my chest instantly turned into electrifying goosebumps as he wrapped his fingers around mine, his grip tightening, holding my hand with an intensity that sent a shiver through me.We stood at the same distance as before, yet somehow, we had come closer.There were no words betwee
[Xanthea]‘… to cure the curse your mother put upon us because only you can.’Asher’s words hit me like a blow to the chest, leaving me breathless and blank. I stared at him as thousands of thoughts rammed into my mind. I was scared like I had never been before.Although I couldn’t decipher who I wa
There were glimpses and unfinished sentences. Lifeless body of a child, probably a weak blood.‘Another disappointm—’Peeled skin. Severed muscles.‘Burn him, prepare the other—’Eyeballs leaking from the eye sockets. People struggling as her helpers stuffed clothes in their mouth to muffle their gr
Experimenting on living subjects thrilled her. It was all fun for her. It was astonishing how she remained utterly undisturbed by it all. She justified every action with the belief that it was for the advancement of healing and immortality.‘Thank you for your contribution,’ she would say to each te
‘And that is why they will be punished as well,’ Alpha Caelum replied coldly. ‘As for you, you are hereby expelled from the Solvaris pack — and the Celestial realm.’My mother looked devastated, but she didn’t plead for mercy.‘I accept,’ she said brazenly as she strutted out of the court.With a sl
[Xanthea]I stared at Asher, my chest tightening as his words echoed in the air, heavy and inescapable. My mind scrambled to process what he had just said.“No.” The word slipped out, trembling and frail. “That’s not… It’s not possible.”Asher’s gaze remained distant. There was a cruel pity in the w
