It’s been a month since Ember happened to escape from the cruelty of werewolf hunters and within those days it was eerily quiet and peaceful in all of Devonlaire. It was something that Ember finds weird and worrisome.

She knew that those hunters and witches were just hiding somewhere, plotting unimaginable things on how to eliminate them.

Ember felt two warm and strong arms circling her waist and Liam’s fresh scent assaulted her senses. He buried his face in the space between her neck and shoulder, and Ember can’t help but let out a laugh when his stubbles tickled her skin.

“Liam! I’m sweaty all over!” Ember protested.

She’s sweaty from her sparring with Yuri. After Yuri escaped the fire, Ember saw her change. She’s now determined to learn the art of fighting and Ember will give her anything just

    “We need to go. We can’t let the council wait for us.”Liam glanced at Aron, who stood behind him with his usual guarding stance.“Give me one more minute,” Liam said gloomily. His lips were set into a thin line and his pitch-black eyes flickered into a golden glow before returning to their usual color. He was so torn. He needed to be in this place to think things through.Liam heaved out a heavy breath as he stared into the horizon. On this hill, just before the protective walls of Bresmont, was where the ashes of his late wife were scattered into the air. She was here, and he felt her presence through the stillness of the trees and the peaceful sound of birds chirping.“I missed you, Tash,” he silently whispered. His heart felt empty since she was gone. It was never the same again, but he tried to live each day. There was never a day when he didn’t think of her, and with each passing day, his hunger for her presence grew stronger.He missed her so much, and his unborn child who died

    The union between werewolves is not the same as the union of other creatures. As an Alpha, the Lycan King should approve of the union first before they can proceed to the Marking Ceremony, which will be held at Bresmont.Some wolves have mates and some don’t have one. As for Liam, he married Natasha, who was not his mate. Or maybe he hasn’t found her yet. But Liam didn’t actually care about that mate thing, he only wanted Natasha, and no one else.After the approval and blessing from the Lycan King, Liam and Ember went straight back to Bresmont, where the marking ceremony should be held. Liam had requested that it be private because he didn’t want to have a huge celebration.“Congratulations to both of you.” Esmeralda, Liam’s mother, greeted the two as they stepped out from the walls of the King’s Castle. “Ember, dear, you look exceptionally beautiful with that dress. Congratulations on being the new Luna of Bresmont. As the mother of the Alpha, you can always come to me whenever you n

    After helping Dr. Brynn, the pack’s doctor, at the infirmary, Ember was led by the in-house maid to her room. The master’s bedroom, Liam and her bedroom.Tonight, was supposed to be the Marking ceremony, but Ember knew that it would never happen. Liam will never give his mark to her. With the kind of relationship that they had and his hatred towards her family, Ember prepared herself for everyday battle with that hard-headed alpha.But that’s the least of her worries. She can always seduce Liam and make him surrender to her. She will prove to him that she’s better. So much better than Natasha.Ember scanned the room. Her eyes landed on every detail of the room, and she was impressed.The room was very spacious, the king-sized bed looked so comfortable, and the color of the walls was so calming. There's a luxury chandelier that hung in the middle of the room, which added to the majestic ambiance of the room. The design of the room was a combination of old and modern design. It was actua

    Ember gritted her teeth as she sat on one of the infirmary’s empty beds. The rest of the pack was now in their respective rooms, resting and recuperating after the attack after they took her to the infirmary since it won’t heal easily.She was the only one who was left in the infirmary together with Dr. Brynn who was treating her wounds, a wound that was inflicted by her very own cruel Alpha. Ember wanted to laugh mockingly at herself. She was embarrassed on her first night being a Luna.Ember grimaced at the thought that Liam really had hurt her. Now that she had seen his cruel side, she knew that he was a hopeless case.“This will hurt,” Brynn warned her. She was holding a bottle with a black liquid on it. Ember had no interest in asking what was inside that bottle, all she could think of was how painful her wounds are and how she hated the Alpha right now.Doctor Brynn Daniels, the pack’s doctor had been kind to treat her at this hour.Ember just nodded slowly. Pain does not scare

    His eyes strained from the darkness of the forest, his lungs burned as he forced air into his lungs and the sharp claws of his feet dug deep into the muddy floors of the forest. Alpha Liam may not be the fastest in the pack but his one of the strongest Devonlaire ever had.Liam was beyond angry, he was enraged by what happened back at the mansion. It was past midnight and he should be in the comforts of his own bed right now, but here he is, running like crazy deep into the forest, seeking refuge in his sanctuary like the coward that he is.His anger was directed towards Ember who had the audacity to act like she was the queen of the pack. He already hated the fact that he has no choice but to marry her, and now she was acting like a bitch that she really is.His movements were lightning-fast as he climb up that hill. He was in his wolf form.Once there, he sniffed the air to determine whether there was another creature aside from him, and when he found no traces of any scent, Liam le

    It’s been almost a week since she moved to Bresmont. She was originally living in the castle as one of the Lycan King’s elite soldiers and the strongest amongst the rest in Devonlaire.When her father said that she was chosen by the council to be wed to a grumpy, old Alpha, Ember couldn’t seem to understand why they chose her. She’s already committed to serving the King, but then when the King agreed, Ember could not say no anymore.She just has to deal with it. After all, she really has no say in anything in this realm dominated by Alphas. Ember knew she will regret it.And now she’s suffering from his icy stares and cold treatment whenever they bumped into each other. Not that she minded being ignored by the Alpha, she just can’t figure out how William Ashdown became an Alpha of the Pack. He’s a bit childish and immature for his age. For Ember, Liam is not suitable to be an Alpha. He mainly uses his emotions and not his brain and instincts.“There you are! I practically looked for y

    Ember was lost for words at what she saw in front of her. Her heart pumped a little bit than it should as she scanned the young wolves lined up on a platform. She estimated their age ranges from thirteen to sixteen, so young but also very determined to learn how to combat and protect the realm. Her heart was filled with adoration for these young wolves because she was once like them. Though she really was not into fighting and self-defense before, she learned to love it since it will ensure the safety of the people of Devonlaire.“So, how do you like this place? I thought you might like it here since you are part of the King’s soldiers.” Solana crossed her arms in front of her chest as she looked at those young recruits with pride. We trained them and taught them how to be strong. Because we all know not werewolves were born with the ability to fight, some of them were omegas, but they are learning.” Solana explained.“Wow, this place is so beautiful. Where is this place?

    Liam got out of his car the moment they arrived back at the mansion. He has a lot of questions running inside his head and it agitates him that he has no answers for them, only Ember can answer those questions. That means he has to talk to her now, not a good idea for him since he has been doing great avoiding her.“Alpha, Fulker deployed additional soldiers on the west border. Craig already brought the new recruits into the camp for the registration, he said your presence was needed there.”Javier, one of Bresmont’s elite soldiers told Liam as they made their way inside the mansion. He almost forgot about the new recruits this week. He has a lot of things on his mind right now, and the thing that occupies his mind the most was how to avoid Ember at all costs.Liam nodded in approval. “Good, I will be there in a minute. I just had to talk to the Luna for a moment.” Yes. He calls Ember luna. She doesn’t want to rise issues about treating her badly. He realized that after their fight on

    Somewhere deep in the forest outside the walls of Bresmont, a group of werewolf hunters gathered to take refuge in a cave that was not inhabited by any creatures. After the chaos that happened in the camp, few survivors were able to escape and that includes their leader, Robert Kingston, and his sister, Rolyn.A loud cry reverberated through the walls of the cave as Rolyn cried in pain. She was chained to the wall, blood dripping from her wounds while Robert punished her.“Please, stop,” she begged him to stop. But Robert has no plans in listening to his little sister.She’s been a pain in the ass, and now Robert got full of her dumbness.Robert laughed. “You want me to stop?” An edge of mockery can be heard in his tone.Robert went to Rolyn and grabbed her hair forcefully so that she

    “Are yous sure you can do this?”Liam asked Ember for the third time. He’s not entirely convinced that Ember is already fit to go to Devonlaire.Ember took the passenger’s seat while Liam slid into the driver’s seat. The Council of Claws had Ember summoned to Devonlaire. The Lycan King wanted to personally talk to Ember about her experience while she was captured by the hunters, something Liam was opposed to.Ember gave Liam a tight smile as she buckled up. She propped herself towards Liam who was starting to revive the engine.“You worry too much, Alpha. Have you forgotten that I defeated a whole army of hunters and find my way back to Bresmont?” There was an edge of pride in her voice. “Standing in front of the council and the King will not have me budge.”Emb

    Ember often asked herself before if soulmates were true. Is it really true that the Moon Goddess grants every werewolf a mate, someone who will be with them for the rest of their lives?Ember never really thought that she has a soulmate, until now. She believed that Liam is her soulmate. It may sound weird but she can feel it, deep inside her she can feel how Liam clawed and caged her heart.Liam pushed Ember to lie on the bed, Ember didn’t protest at all. They were both consumed by the fire that they were feeling. Though she finds it weird that Liam is this aggressive towards her, she just went with the flow, she likes it anyway.A soft moan escaped from her mouth when Liam slipped his lips to her neck. His body was pressed against her and she could feel how hard he is right now. Liam’s hands were all over her, squeezing, caressing, and feeling her every skin

    Ember woke up in an unfamiliar room. The blinding lights made it hard for her to see where she actually was, but the scent was quite familiar to her.High ceiling, huge, comfortable bed, and the scent of someone she knew assaulted her senses when she turned and buried her face in the pillow.“Oh, god!” She groaned. Pain shot through her body when she tried to move out of bed.Then she remembered everything that happened. The hunters attack Bresmont, she was captured and taken to their camp and she was tortured. She escaped. She remembered it all too vividly, how she killed almost all of those hunters in the camp and how much she tried to go back to Bresmont despite the wounds she sustained.She strained her eyes and let them roam around the room. The design was familiar.Liam. She can smell Liam's scent

    “He’s out of his mind.” Chris closed and rubbed his eyes in frustration and annoyance.How can Liam, an Alpha of one of the districts of Devonlaire, go to ask help from a witch? Sure, that witch was not like the others who like to wreck chaos in the realm, but dealing with them is prohibited, not if the King permits. And given Liam’s situation right now where the King wanted him to go back to Bresmont, it will be a disaster.“Someone has to stop him, or else we will all be dragged by this. We all know how cruel the Lycan King is. He’s not gonna take this easy.” Kean was edgy. “We need to go now.” He glanced at Solana who was also pacing back and forth, uneasiness was consuming her.“Go. Bring him here. Drag him if you must.” Chris pursed his lips into a thin line.This is what h

    “Damn you, Liam!” Kean cursed when he tried to connect with Liam again through their mind link but he was already blocked by the Alpha. “Hard-headed asshole!”Kean felt hopeless as she tried again, but to no avail. His brother is really determined to save the Luna all by himself, even with the King’s command not to find Ember. Kean was sure as hell that Liam will be in great trouble if he’s not going to obey the King’s command, not only will Liam be compromised, but also the whole Ashdown name.Liam might be convicted of Treason and the worst part of it is that there’s a possibility that he might be executed.“The King ordered him to come go back here at Bresmont, but Liam has other plans.” Kean looked at his father, Chris, helplessly.Kean may be the naughty and the not-so-serious type between the two brothers, but he’s the more logical thinker tha

    Liam dropped on his knees as he bowed in the presence of the Lycan King. He believed that there’s no one except the King who can help him find where Ember is right now. He asked the King to help him locate Ember since the Lycan King knew everything about Devonlaire. He’s more than a century old, he knew a lot of things about his kingdom, especially about his enemies.The King chuckled when Liam begged him for help.“Don’t you have any faith in Ember Jacobson?” The King is amused. He could still remember how this alpha disagreed with his marriage with Ember. The King wanted to laugh, he couldn’t believe how weak this alpha to fall in love that easily.The Lycan King didn’t believe in love. For him, there’s only hate in this world full of cruelty and sadness. His hundreds of years of existence had taught him that love does not exist, it is only a product of one’s imaginatio
