2025-01-24 20:53:19“Are you alright? Did he hurt you? I’m so sorry you got dragged into this mess.”
A soft voice whispers behind me and I turn around to blink. Beta John. Is he talking to me? “ Yes. I am talking to you.” He had a smile on his face and my cheeks flare. Damn. I said that out loud. Didn't I? His voice is filled with genuine concern, his eyes locked on my neck. “ I am so sorry I-” “ Don’t be. It wasn't your fault.” He offers me his handkerchief and I take it with reluctant fingers. His gaze is soft—so much softer than the cold, stormy grey of….his “ There is a cut. Should I take you to the doctor?” My eyes widen. "Th-thank you. But I’ll manage." My voice shakes, betraying the calm I’m trying to project. I’m not used to anyone caring, but I can’t let it show. My eyes avoid his and I grip the shawl tightly around half of my face. “Are you sure?” he asks, stepping closer, his concern unwavering. "Yes. Thank you, Sir," I say, trying to keep my tone steady. I don’t know what to make of his kindness. It’s too much... too unfamiliar. Does he want something from me? Why is he being so nice? “ Beta John. You can call me Beta John. And you are?” He offers me his palm to shake and I rub my dirty hands on my jeans before shaking his warm ones. He smiles. And my heart thuds. “ Eve.” I stutter out. Before I can say more, he pulls out a pouch from his pocket, holding it out toward me. “This is for you—a token of apology for what happened back there.“ My eyes widened, staring at the pouch. “ No Sir I can’r repay-” Beta John shook his head. “You don’t owe me anything, Eve.” He spoke my name as though we knew each other since years. “Take it. Use it for yourself, for your family.” Hesitant, I accepted the pouch with trembling hands. The weight of it made my knees wobble. “Thank you,” I whispered, overwhelmed. “You didn’t have to—” “I insist,” he interrupted gently. Then, as though reading my thoughts, he added, “Not everyone in this world is as cruel as the people you’ve met today. You shouldn’t have to bear the weight of it alone.” Something warm sparked in my chest, and for the first time that day, I felt like crying for a reason other than despair. He was a great warrior. I am sure. But he was even a better man at heart. “Take care of yourself, Eve.” And just like that, he was gone, leaving me standing there, clutching the heavy pouche filled with more coins than I’d ever dreamed of having. The weight of the coins sinks into me. Wait... What just happened? Did I just get lucky? I look down, eyes wide. There are so many coins. Enough to buy food for the whole group for days, maybe even weeks. This isn’t just a handout. This is... a windfall. A reward. For a moment, it doesn’t feel so bad. I didn’t just walk out of a death trap. I earned something. A smile spreads across my lips. The thought of sharing this with everyone, seeing their faces light up with joy, makes my chest feel warm. But then those eyes flash in my mind. Those cold, merciless gaze. Scary. No, more than scary. Deadly. His eyes—the way they look right through me—like he could take my soul and I will only thank him for it. They burn into my mind. I shudder and push the thought away. It doesn’t matter. His Beta gave it to me himself. These coins are mine now? Right? And now I will use them to spread more smiles and happiness. Just perfect! …. I practically ran all the way back to the shelter, the excitement bubbling up inside me like a child with a secret. Bursting through the door, I found everyone where I’d left them—curled up in thin blankets, huddled close for warmth. The sight always made my chest ache, but today was different. Today, I could make it better. “Everyone, look!” I called out, and the room stirred with murmurs. I emptied one pouch onto the floor, letting the coins spill out like a river of gold. Gasps erupted around me. “Food,” I announced, grinning ear to ear. “Warm clothes. Enough for all of us.” The children cheered first, their small voices filled with joy, and soon the adults joined in, their tired eyes glimmering with hope. Within an hour, I’d returned with bags of bread, meat, and warm clothes. We sat together, eating and laughing like we hadn’t in years. A little girl named Tessa hugged my leg, her face smeared with crumbs. “You’re an angel, Eve,” she said, beaming up at me. For a moment, I let myself believe it. But then I realised it wasn’t me. It was him. Beta John. He was the reason behind everyone’s smile. He is right. Not everyone is bad in this world. Some good souls are still left in this world, and moon goddess will always protect them.

The street buzzed with life and I hummed a tone, feeling lighter after seeing the smiles and laughter of everyone back at the shelter. Through I knew my happiness was borrowed at best but we should enjoy the little we get, right? “Scar,” Lilly’s voice cut through my thoughts.“You can fool them,” she said, her voice low, almost conspiratorial. “Not me. Where did you get all those coins, Scar?”Busted.We had been together since we were 7 at the orphanage. Of course she would know. “I didn’t do anything wrong, Lilly. I swear,” I said quickly, holding my hands up in defense.“Did you steal again, Scar?” Her voice was steady, but her suspicion was a blade, her eyes narrowed at me.I sighed, stepping closer to her and sliding an arm around her neck, gently tugging her toward the side of the street, away from prying eyes. “Stop overthinking,” I said with a small grin. “How about I treat you to drinks and some yummy food? My treat.”Her expression softened slightly, though her skeptici

I woke to the sting of cold, hard tiles against my cheek. Something… no everything was wrong.My ribs burned, the dull throb spreading through my side like a slow, creeping poison. My head pounded, heavy and disoriented, but the taste of blood was sharp and metallic on my tongue—impossible to ignore.For a moment, I stayed still, hoping the pain would fade if I didn’t move. But it didn’t. The sharp ache in my ribs worsened when I shifted, and fear followed close behind. Cracked ribs. Maybe worse. The thought coiled in my stomach like a viper.But I ignored it.My fingers brushed my forehead, flinching at the dried blood crusted over my skin. And the realisation hits bad.No one had come to help me. Not a single soul. They’d left me here, broken and bleeding on the diner floor, like trash waiting to be swept away.Talk about humanity.Its really dead.No one wants to deal with the murder of an ugly begged in a diner. Gritting my teeth, I planted my palms on the ground, forcing my b

"You’re bleeding. Eve, sit down. Come—"Beta John’s voice was calm, but I didn’t have the patience to hear it. My hands shot up, grabbing his arm, gripping him like he was my last lifeline."Sir, please," I rasped, my voice trembling. "They took her. I don’t know what to do—"“Eve," he interrupted, his brow creased with concern. "You’re not fine. You’re injured. First, let us—"“No!" The word erupted from me, sharp and raw. I didn’t care if my voice cracked or if my ribs screamed in protest. Desperation surged in my veins like fire. "Why don’t you understand? I am fine! But she’s not! God knows what those men are doing to her! I need you to find them—I need you to do something! Talk to your highness for me, sir! Please!”My outburst left him momentarily stunned. His hand dragged through his hair, his expression shifting to one of reluctant defeat.“Fine," he muttered. "Tell me her residence number, and I’ll send my men to search thoroughly.”My heart plummeted. Panic clawed at my ches

“ Thousands of woman were trying to charm him with their skin and curves, yet he fell for the one most covered.Thousand of eyes staring at him, begging for attention, yet all he could look at was the one with her eyes lowered.”…. Lub. Dub. The pounding in my chest grew deafening, a visceral rhythm of fear and something darker—something I didn’t want to name. Those silver-grey eyes were liquid steel, cold and unyielding, pinning me to the spot with a predatory intensity that drained the air from the room. It felt like the world had stopped spinning. My mind screamed at me to look away, to run, but my body refused. His presence was suffocating, a tangible force that coiled around me like chains. The shawl I always carried hung loosely, hiding most of my head, face, leaving only my wide, terrified eyes visible. And then he spoke, his voice cutting through the silence like a blade. "Who the hell are you?" His tone was frigid, devoid of any humanity. "And how did you get in

I have felt helpless before. The feeling was not new to me.When the kids in the orphanage kicked and bullied me. When my favorite teddy bear was ripped to shreds by one of the boys there. When I slept on the street, curled into a ball as rain drenched me. When I ate expired food from the dumpster and suffered stomach cramps so bad I vomited for an entire week, only to end up in a community hospital.Life has never been easy.I was used to harsh.But right now? Slammed onto a bed, restrained by his unyielding grip, my body exposed and trembling, I felt utterly weak and breakable.And then it hit me.The first sharp slap landed on my bottom. My entire body recoiled, the sound ringing out like a cruel echo of dominance. A desperate cry tore from my lips, and I thrashed uselessly against his iron hold.My bottom jiggled from the force. My legs trembled under the weight of his authority.Before I could even register the searing sting, another sharp pain followed, this time on the other ch

“Will he kill me?”I questioned John as we walked toward the office. His exasperated gaze shifted to me, his lips pressing into a tight line.“Kill is unpredictable. Can’t say. Just stay quiet inside, and I’ll try to handle this.”I nodded, swallowing my thanks as my palms turned clammy. My jittery legs betrayed the resolve I desperately tried to cling to. What had I been thinking, entering the Alpha King’s chambers at 1:30 in the night?Yes, I was desperate to save Lil, but my actions? Reckless. Stupid.We stopped in front of the door, and John turned, his eyes heavy with warning.“Keep your eyes lowered. His Highness hates eye contact. And don’t—under any circumstances—touch him. He despises a woman’s touch more than anything.”A cold shiver slithered down my spine as I begrudgingly nodded. The logic behind those commands escaped me, but his words echoed in my head.Despises a woman’s touch?I hugged myself, memories of earlier crashing into me. The warmth of his palm trailing over

“The last digit,” he explained, his tone amused. “I design the sequence myself. For men, the number always ends in even digits; for women, odd. And this?” He held the paper closer. “This ends in two.”He tilted his head, his silver eyes gleaming with amusement.“You can fool my Beta, but not me, little mouse. You’re a liar. And a very interesting one at that.”My eyes widened.Damn it. This is spiraling out of control. At this rate, I might not even leave here alive. Is this why he sent John away?My tongue felt useless, frozen in my mouth, as my body stiffened. The sound of his steps echoed ominously.Thud.Thud.Thud.I saw his shoes before I felt his presence—towering, overwhelming, and far too close.“I had… no choice,” I muttered, my gaze dropping to the floor.“Everyone has a choice, rogue.”“I didn’t. I had to survive.”“And you’re doing a pathetic job of it.”Tears stung my eyes. How dare he? How dare he look at me like that, with such cold disdain?He didn’t know what I’d bee

“ There are ones who enjoy making others suffer, sadist as we call them.And then there are those.The ones who just watch you burn, doing nothing to help. And once you have given up?They come to collect the ashes. The demon.That's what they call him.” ….The air was suffocating, thick with invisible chains that seemed to pull me back with every step. My lungs screamed in protest as I sprinted through the grand, endless halls of the castle. My footing faltered, my heart lurching as I glanced down.Damn it!The sole of my shoe had split, flapping uselessly against the cold marble. I kicked them off, abandoning them in my desperation, and continued to run. My bare feet slapped against the unforgiving floor, every step echoing in the vast emptiness around me.Helpless, I skidded to a halt at a dead end, my breath ragged as I slammed my fists against the wall.What the hell is this place? A goddamn maze?My frantic eyes darted around, searching for

Killain’s POVMore.Deeper.Mine.The words ricochet in my skull as Ragnar sinks his canines deeper, his jaw locked, his body trembling with something more than just possession. A primal urge—dark, twisted, insatiable—breeds in his bones.He's never been this way before. He despises she-wolves. Their scents repulse him, their touch is filth.Especially after her.But this one?He’s different with her. His rage is not just rage—it’s something sick, possessive, obsessive. And I know why. That sight. That fucking sight.Her, helpless beneath those vermin. Their filthy, lecherous eyes eating her up like prey.She was supposed to be mine.Not theirs. Not anyone else’s. Mine.So I let Ragnar have his way. Let him claim her in the only way that matters. Let him ruin her so she remembers who she belongs to.But then—She goes still.Her white fur, once untouched, is now tainted. Blood-red. Her body limp.I feel the first twinge of something unpleasant crawl into my gut."Ragnar, enough."A de

I didn’t get the chance to shift.Because death came first.A shadow tore through the trees, a blur of darkness moving faster than thought, faster than fear itself.The rogues barely had time to react.One moment, they were leering, salivating, circling me like scavengers—The next, their bodies were flying.Ripped apart.Slaughtered.I couldn’t even track his movements. He was lightning, striking without warning, without mercy. Teeth sank into flesh, bones cracked, blood splattered. My white fur turned crimson, warm and wet, soaked in the remnants of his violence.A sickening crunch.A howl cut short.Then—silence.I gasped, my breath ragged, my body trembling.The scent of death curled thick in the air.And above me, standing tall,his massive black frame blocking out the moon—Was him.The black wolf.Power coiled through every muscle, a force too deadly to be restrained. His paws crushed the earth beneath them, his jet black fur glistening with the blood of those he had just ended.

Eve’s POV I don’t know how long Luna has been running. Hours probably? Time had blurred into nothing and the sound of her ragged breaths and the violent pounding of her paws against the earth was the only sound I have been hearing. The cold night air burned in our lungs, each inhale sharp, each exhale heavier than the last. She ran without looking back. Through rivers, across borders, past territories I didn’t recognize. It didn’t matter. Nothing mattered except putting as much distance between us and him. I knew there was no escape from him. He will find us eventually. But Luna didn’t know that. She was naive, like I was earlier. She didn’t wanted to give up without a fight. I admire her bravery. Her will. But in the past few weeks, I have realised that when it comes to Kill. All these things feel too minuscule. We were nothing in front of him. Harsh , but it’s real. He can crush someone like me within seconds without feeling a beat of pity. Even kill me, i

“Don’t say that, Eve. You are beautiful inside and out. Believe me." Her voice echoed in my mind, soft yet certain. My eyes burned. This was the first time someone had ever called me beautiful. My own wolf. "Thank you, Luna. Do you want to take control?" Silence. She didn’t agree right away. My brows furrowed. Why? And then I saw the reason. Him. Something flickered in Killain’s gaze. A moment. Barely a second. Something unreadable, something dark. Then, just as quickly, it was gone. He rose to his feet, movements slow, deliberate, calculated. A predator taking his time. I tried to stand, my legs buckling beneath me, my new form still foreign. The ground tilted, breath unsteady, and then—Killain was there. Boots crunching against the dirt to stop in front of me. The scent of smoke clinging to him. His silver eyes were molten steel. Angry. I didn’t even do anything. Why the hell were his boxers always in a twist? Wait. Did he even wear boxers— A rough h

The next entire day was wasted with just one feeling.Dread.It was evening. The night was thick with the scent of sweat and earth, the air thrumming with the raw energy of testosterones as I step towards the training grounds. Vast open area sprawled before me with a sea of shifting shadows beneath the cold moonlight. Men—bare, gleaming, their bodies slick with exertion—moved in violent unison, grunts and growls blending with the rhythmic crunch of feet against dirt.And at the center of it all, towering and immovable like a god of war, stood Killain.“ Again! Faster!”His voice was a whip, sharp and merciless, lashing through the night. Every command was met with immediate obedience, every syllable dragging submission from those before him. The men flinched under his gaze, muscles coiling in tense reverence and I was not immune to him.Gulping, I forced my feet forward, each step heavier than the last. The clock had struck eight. I would not be late. I could not afford those stup

I hurried down the halls, each step a frantic whisper against the marble, my breath shallow, uneven. My pulse hammered, thrumming in my ears as I reached my chambers and shoved the door closed behind me. The lock clicked into place, and I sagged against the wood, pressing my forehead against its cool surface. A shuddering breath left my lips.I was safe.I was back.No one knew.Zane.I swallowed hard, clenching my hands into fists. His name was a brand in my mind, seared into my very being. The ghost of his touch still lingered, scorching and sweet, a temptation I should have never given into.A mistake.A beautiful, intoxicating mistake.My fingers moved up before I could stop them, grazing my lips—still swollen from his kiss. A sharp exhale left me as my chest heaved, torn in two. My heart and mind waged war, brutal and unrelenting.It felt so right.Yet so wrong.I should forget him.But how could I, when his touch still clung to my skin like a whispered sin? When my body trembled

We both continue to stare at each other, as if struck by the brutal hand of fate itself.I can hear my own heartbeat hammering in my ears. Then, a voice.His voice."Mate?"The single word ignites something inside me—something that had been long dead. Something I’ve never felt before.My wolf.She growls in my mind, a sound of unfiltered happiness, of longing fulfilled. A surge of something raw and overwhelming rushes through my veins, making my knees tremble.No.This can’t be happening.Mate.I never thought I’d be gifted with one. Never dared to dream of it. And yet, there he stands—handsome, powerful, wealthy. Everything a girl could ever wish for. Everything I was never meant to have.My breath catches as he moves.Deliberate. Unhurried. As if he has all the time in the world to reach me.And the world holds its breath. The chaos around us fades into nothingness. Every eye is on us, watching the cruel, inescapable design of fate unfold before them.One step.Two.His eyes do not

Eve’s POVThe night air was damp with the lingering scent of rain as I moved through the shadows, every step careful, every breath controlled. My heart pounded against my ribs, a wild, erratic rhythm as I watched over my shoulder again and again.No one was following me. I sneaked out from the castle without a trace.The realisation made a deep sigh leave my lips.But a strange nagging stayed in my chest. Something doesn’t feel right. It somehow seemed too easy to escape the most guarded place in the world.I was over thinking.Shrugging my shoulders, I look ahead and the crumbling structure at the edge of the city enters my vision.It was barely standing, but to those inside, it was home.Just like it was for me.I may have become the Queen of the werewolves. Wife of the Werewolf King of kings. But this was still my home.Something I could call my own.Slipping through the broken doorway, I barely had time to take in the familiar, dimly lit room before a cry rang out."Eve!"Before I

Average human reflex is 250 milliseconds.For werewolves, it’s around 100.But with him, it was even faster.Before I could even react to his words, my chest was slammed against the wall, my hands pinned above my head. The silence between us hums, thick with tension, the only sound audible being the relentless drum of my heartbeat.My cheek presses against the cold wall, and I can feel his presence hovering behind me—an oppressive weight that leaves no room for defiance. Damn it. This is getting worse."I’m telling you, I’m not lying—""Shhh. Another word, little mouse, and I won’t mind shutting your pretty little mouth like last time."Memories of his thumb forcing my mouth open flicker through my mind, making my body freeze. I bite my lip to swallow the words I almost foolishly let slip.Damn it!It was a threat, yet why does it knot my stomach and wet the space between my thighs?The air crackles between us, charged like the storm outside.
