POV: CALLIE
His intense words caught me off guard, sending a shock through my body, as if I had been waiting for them my entire life. Tears streamed down my face. Control my gift to become his eyes?
“What does that mean?” I asked, still lost and hesitant about the weight and significance of such a promise. Could I trust the Alpha to be my eyes? Or was I just preying, used for the wolves’ hunt?
“Exactly what the words say, little wolf. Foresee the future for me; be my vision to keep me steps ahead of my enemies, and I’ll ensure you see the present without missing a single detail,” he growled, rubbing his nose against mine and pulling me to my feet. “Let me show you!”
“Where are we going?” I asked, letting go of his hands and taking a few cautious steps back.
“You’re still afraid of me,” the Alpha stated with a soft growl. “I&
POV: CALLIEAccompanied by the gentle sound of the wind and the fresh scent of nature, we shared that special moment, where he brought the beauty of the world to me in ways I could appreciate differently, but just as intensely. Aaron continued to describe every nuance of the sunset, ensuring no detail was left out. Even without seeing, the magic and grandeur of that moment were truly unique.“This is really beautiful.” I whispered, sipping a bit more.“It truly is beautiful,” Aaron said, placing a finger under my chin, turning me toward him, and capturing my lips in a soft yet commanding kiss. “Hunf, you taste sweeter.”“This feeling is pleasant,” I said with a small smile, still close to his mouth. “Thank you, Alpha.”“You thank and apologize too much,” he growled, massaging the back of my neck. “No one should be de
POV: AARONWe descended slowly from the mountains, with Callie exploring the surroundings, reaching her hands toward the sky, and playing with the cold breeze brushing against her fingers.“Little Wolf, if you focused on the future, could you have a vision?” I asked, admiring her innocence.“I’ve never tried,” she replied, lowering her hands and clasping them together, her fingers tightening slightly.“Why not?” I asked, curiosity lacing my tone as I stopped abruptly when she bumped into me. I grabbed her waist, feeling sparks ignite between us. The intensity of the moment was unsettling.“Forgive me, Alpha,” Callie said, embarrassed, bowing her head. I growled softly, lifting her chin.“Answer me,” I commanded, my lips grazing hers, drawing a faint gasp from her.“I was focused so
POV: AARON“Don't hurt him; I'll take the punishment in his place!” she hurried to say, grabbing my hands in desperation.“Hurt who?” I felt my rage boiling over. “Your fiancé?”She shook her head.“A friend, the only one I've ever had,” she sighed, sadness in her voice. “I don’t even know if he’s alive after the attack.”“What’s his name?” I growled, enraged, overtaken by a strange and dominant feeling.“Orion…” Callie said hesitantly. “I warned him about the attack, told him to run and stay safe.”“What kind of cowardly wolf runs, leaving his pack to be attacked?” I tightened my grip on her shoulders slightly.“He was just an omega. It’s not like he could’ve helped much.&rdq
POV: AARON“Nicoly?” she wrung her hands nervously.“You always evade my questions.” I growled lowly in her direction, sensing her body tremble. My mind conjured countless thoughts, filled with desire for this innocent wolf.“I'm not evading, my Alpha,” she murmured, biting her lips and nervously twirling strands of her hair around her fingers. “The only person who ever read to me was my mother. Her life was taken when I was very young. We never had the chance to talk about romances, and, given my state, it's not as though I'll ever live something as beautiful as that.”I considered her words, observing her posture. My wolf growled in my chest in protest, but logic held firm in my mind. It was a fact: Callie, being blind, was deemed unfit as a wolf. She served no purpose within the pack—at least not as far as the wolves knew. However, reflecting on recent event
POV: AARONI shifted in front of her, standing completely naked, and grabbed her wrist, licking the tips of her fingers.“Still dying for me, are you?” I growled playfully, making her laugh.“Ever the charmer,” she teased, placing a soft kiss on my cheek. “Your scent has changed.”“Changed, has it?” I raised an intrigued eyebrow.Inhaling near my neck, she smiled.“Oh yes, I can tell the Goddess is working on your heart,” Yulli said, her expression brightening as she hugged me. “I’m glad all this war hasn’t completely darkened your soul.”“Why do you witches always speak in riddles? Is it some preordained code?” I growled impatiently, making her laugh aloud.“Is lupine impatience also a predetermined trait of being a wolf?” s
POV: CALLIEI followed the Alpha like a shadow in the morning, handling combat information as he requested. I tried to focus my mind on gaining visions or signs of danger in every move the Lycan made. But I was forbidden from voicing my thoughts aloud—it was one of our secrets, one of many.At night, I was confined to his quarters, with no access to the rest of the house. Oddly, I felt safer this way. It was comforting to sleep in his arms and be enveloped by his gentle touches at night. The problem was that both my wolf and I had become too emotionally involved. The only ones bound to suffer from this entanglement were us.I paced nervously, wrestling with my thoughts. A fleeting idea crossed my mind: Could there be a possibility that the Alpha loved me?I shook my head, chastising myself for such naivety. I needed to be treated like a true prisoner—or at the very least, I had to distance myself. For
POV: CALLIE“I don't know what you're talking about! Please, Alpha, explain it to me!” I begged, my hand reaching up to his hair and sliding down to his face. “You reek of Esmeralda!”I spoke in shock, trying to pull away, but his grip was unrelenting.“She was right. You can use manipulation magic… Now everything makes sense!” the Lycan King bellowed, releasing my face and grabbing my elbow. “Guards, take her away; lock her in solitary confinement. No one touches my prisoner!”His roar sent waves of terror through me, and violent tremors overtook my body. I fell to my knees, dragging myself toward his woody scent, clutching at his legs.“Alpha, please! Please, don’t do this… I swear, I didn’t do anything!” I screamed in desperation.“Take her away!” the Alpha growled, pulling
POV: CALLIEI was brutally thrown onto the cell floor, the impact making my chin slam against the cold surface as I heard the guard laughing at my misfortune.“Don’t cry, wolf. This was inevitable. Did you really think any wolf could love you?” he sneered with cruel sarcasm. “Looks like your body’s only good for one thing, doll. Once the Lycan King gets tired of playing with you, we’ll convince him to let you serve all the wolves in the pack!”I growled at him in disgust, turning to my side and vomiting. My stomach churned, but it was nothing compared to the pain in my chest. That bastard. How could he believe Esmeralda's lies so easily?In the end, they’re all the same, only wanting to use me in some filthy way. Of all the pains I’d endured, this one was the worst. He didn’t need to seduce me… Why did the goddess allow me to fall in love with the Alpha Supreme?
POV: AARONBy late afternoon, the traitors stood in the center of the town square, drawing the attention of the townspeople who, in their human forms, had gathered in a circle to watch. I remained in front of the water fountain while the prisoners were tied to wooden stakes driven into the ground.“My wolves,” I began, my voice resonating with firm authority, “the prisoners before you have been judged. Undeniable evidence of their treason has been presented. These wolves have been found guilty of their actions—spreading the marks of the Dark God’s sect throughout Convergence, which led to the draining of the local residents’ life force.”“This isn’t fair!” the elder woman cried out, her voice thick with emotion. “That city doesn’t belong to any pack! Who cares what happens to the people there? Alpha King, you cannot punish my son for vandalizing a place that&rsquo
POV: CALLIEI explored the cave we were in, sniffing around to make sure there was no danger. I followed the sound of water, dipping my hand in and feeling its comfortable, inviting temperature.“Yulli?” I called, but the witch seemed unconscious, having used the last of her strength to partially heal the poison that the Dark God had spread through my body.I slid out of my clothes, stepping into the water, feeling its gentle caress against my skin. I scrubbed my body, desperate to rid myself of the scent of Dante and Nocturnus. The darkness that clung to them was repulsive. I needed to figure out what to do next—the Supreme Alpha was the father of my child, the same man from my dreams, seemingly my destined mate.But why did I want to run from him? Why did I feel the need to escape? Aaron wasn’t like the man in my dreams. Had I simply idealized him?“So many ques
POV: AARONI took the chain from Kemilly’s hands, dragging the prisoners effortlessly while glancing over my shoulder at the wolves who dared to protest.“SILENCE!” I roared, making the ground tremble, silencing them instantly. “These wolves will be evaluated. If they are found guilty of treason, I will judge and punish them personally.”“But, Lycan King, we didn’t do any.” The prisoner started to speak, but immediately fell silent when my fierce eyes locked onto him.“Please, Alpha, you can’t possibly believe my son is a traitor… This she-wolf disappeared for days and suddenly shows up with these accusations!” the elder pleaded, glaring at Kemilly, who growled threateningly.“Kemilly left under my command. She has served me for years and was once even considered for Luna. Show some respect, elder.” I growled,
POV: CALLIE“How did you manage to break free?” I asked the witch, alarmed.“I’m not an ordinary sorceress. Besides, Dante isn’t as smart as he thinks. The mana stone that repels magic needs to be bathed in pure cave water to maintain its power. I guess he doesn’t know that.” She let out a soft laugh. “And he wanted to become the Supreme Alpha with such foolishness.”“Yulli, why are you helping me? You know you’re putting yourself at risk… You could escape without me. I’m blind…” I sighed. “I’ll only slow you down!”“Why do you think I’m here?” The sorceress gently touched my hand, and I felt the chains vibrate as they unlocked. “The ancestors sent me to you. Besides, it’s my friend’s child you’re carrying. I can’t ignore that and abandon you.”&
POV: AARONI woke up to soft touches on my body, but unlike in my dreams with Callie, they didn’t send shocks or shivers through me.Amused, I caught her slender wrist.“Taking advantage of me while I sleep?”I pulled her into my arms, inhaling her scent—different from before.Strangely, my wolf rejected her, forcing us apart.I shot up abruptly, frowning.It was odd. My inner beast roared for his mate, yet whenever we were physically together, he became fierce and defensive toward her.“Why is your wolf rejecting me?” she asked, confused, lowering her head, sadness in her voice.“I don’t understand, Lycan King. I thought you wanted me. Did I misunderstand?”Something about the way she spoke felt off, but I still didn’t know what h
POV: ESMERALDA“Damn it, Dante, you idiot! How could you turn me into this repulsive thing?” I snarled, pacing back and forth, furious. “Then again, the Lycan King isn’t bad at all. He actually seems to like this blind she-wolf.”I ran my hands through my hair, stepping in front of the mirror.Despite the magic and my identical appearance to Callie, I could see. Those who looked at me, however, only saw blind eyes, unable to perceive the magical veil cloaking my face, shaping it into that of the insignificant little wolf.“Enjoying your new look?”Jaxon entered the room, laughing.“You look even better like this!”“Go to hell, Beta!” I growled, irritated, glaring at him through the mirror’s reflection.“What do you want? Did you come here just to mock me?
POV: CALLIEShe felt his back against her as she hugged him from behind, fearful of losing this sense of security—even if only in a dream. Her mind raced through the next steps, thinking of how to return to the Alpha.I nibbled lightly on his back, making him sigh, then trailed kisses upward, inhaling his addictive, woody scent. My nails glided over his shoulders and arms in slow, rhythmic strokes.“I still can’t give you the answers you want, but please, Alpha... Here, at least, can we just be you and me?”Aaron turned, cupping my face with his open palm. I let my head rest against him, closing my eyes to absorb his warmth.“Please...”His hand slid to the nape of my neck, pulling me forward, guiding my body onto his. He bit my stomach and ran his tongue along my hip, slowly moving inward as I sank down onto his length, inch by inch.
POV: CALLIE“Aaron?” I looked down, confused.Was my involvement with the same wolf who had hunted me causing my memory loss? Was he the father of my child?“You’re the Supreme Alpha they’re trying to take down.”“Who’s trying to take me down?” Aaron took a few steps back, his gaze wary. “Are you on their side? Why won’t you talk to me outside this dream?”“The followers of that so-called god, Nocturnus.”The moment I mentioned his name, sharp, needle-like pain pierced my mind. I groaned in agony, my legs giving out beneath me before I collapsed—only to be caught by the striking man in front of me.“The person who came to you isn’t...”I screamed as the pain became unbearable, a violent sensation rising in my stomach. Turning
POV: AARONI walked with firm strides toward the Beta, who was yanking the chains forcefully. He stopped when he noticed me.“My king...” Jaxon said, offering a slight bow. “I found the blind she-wolf wandering near the mount, close to the moss lands. I brought your prisoner back.”I stepped closer, sniffing in her direction. Though her scent had familiar traces, something about it felt off. However, the same had happened in my dream.“Callie?” I called.She kept her head down in silence.“Why isn’t she speaking?”“I couldn’t say, Alpha. Even when I captured her, she didn’t utter a single word,” the Beta responded curtly, staring at her. “Maybe she has nothing to say.”“Release her chains!” I ordered, irritated at seeing her in tha
