I, Opal, was tossed into the Seven Tower Gate prison by my father, the ruthless Alpha. The world thinks I'm dead- a lie to keep me hidden. Cursed by a witch's hex, I'm a hurricane of destruction. My father wants my power, drained and gone. But I'm his worst nightmare. Six days left with the crescent moon closing in, I catch a scent. My wolf roars, everything shifts. "Mate," it growls, changing the game. Salvation or demise, the choice is mine.

As the prisoner stumbled forward, a hail of gunfire erupted behind them. "Get down!" one of the masked attackers shouted, as they began to pick off the guards one by one.The hail of bullets continued, filling the air with the deafening sounds of gunfire. The guards crumpled to the ground, one by one, their blood pooling on the concrete floor. Amid the chaos, Lyrien remained unscathed, the masked attackers closed in on him.The masked man was hesitant to lay hands on Lyrien, but the other man shouted that he shouldn't be scared. "He's been poisoned, he's weak," the second man said, gesturing to Lyrien. "He's no threat to us."The second gunman used his gun to prod Lyrien forward, herding him out of the room. As they left the room, Lyrien stumbled along, still reeling from the poison. "Who are you? What do you want with me?" he demanded.the gunmen pushed Lyrie
Erin slumped against the cold stone wall of his cell, his rotten hand throbbing with agony. The judgment's adjournment offered no solace.Suddenly, the air seemed to thicken, and the old woman witch materialized before him."Erin," she crooned, her eyes filled with ancient wisdom.Erin's gaze suddenly met hers, he looked with a mix of gratitude and desperation.She reached out with gnarled fingers, touching his afflicted area. A soothing warmth spread through his arm, easing the pain."Thank you," Erin whispered.The old woman's expression turned somber. "This respite is temporary. Your hand will soon be condemned totally if you find no cure."Erin's grip on his injured hand tightened. " I'm trying my best"The witch's eyes clouded. "Seek Aria's body immediately"Erin's determination ignited. "I will soon be able."Uncle Malcolm sank deeper into the warm bath, surrounded by the soft glow of candles and the gentle curves of scantily clad women. Wine glasses cluttered the marble counte
The creaking door broke the silence, and Aria's eyes widened as Arachne stumbled into the cell."Aria!" Arachne exclaimed, rushing into Aria's embrace."Have you been okay?" Aria asked, holding Arachne tight.Arachne's gaze at Aria's eyes. "As you can see... I'm here now."Aria's gaze fell upon Arachne's frail form."What do you mean?" Aria asked, concern etched on her face.Arachne's voice sounded firm. "I'm to be burned alongside you, come morning. After the Council's judgment."Aria's face twisted in anguish. "It's not fair! No one chooses their fate. The Moon Goddess decides everything."Her voice turned bitter. "I hate her for forgetting me, for abandoning me. She created me, yet I'm nothing to her."Arachne's gentle tone soothed Aria's anguish. "Don't blaspheme the Moon Goddess, child. She's still the mother of all wolves, witches, and healers."Aria's tears fell, her voice barely above a whisper. "I only wish my child could survive this."Arachne's expression turned somber. "Pe
Erin seethed, pounding on the dungeon doors. "Uncle Malcolm! How could you do this to me? My pack, the Blackwoods, are the most powerful in the city!"He paced, fury burning within. "Killing Elder Edgard, a lowly family, shouldn't warrant my arrest. He hid the truth about his daughter being a Cursed Wolf, deceiving our pack and others. He deserved death!"Erin's anger boiled over. "I'm the Alpha now! Everyone falls under my rule. I've worked tirelessly to reach this level, to earn my place. Why would you deprive me of my rightful title?"His voice echoed through the dungeon corridors. "I am the future of our pack! You're blinded by outdated traditions and weakness. I will not be imprisoned over this!""Your mentality makes you unfit to lead as Alpha," Uncle Malcolm declared, his voice firm but laced with disappointment. "It's not just physical power that determines a pack's leader. Your father, if he were still alive, would be ashamed of your actions."Erin's face twisted in rage. "Ho
The heavy door's electronic lock clicked, and the metal creaked as it swung open.The fluorescent lights overhead became flickered to life, which brought dimly lit corridor.Gunmen suddenly flooded in, with their boots echoing off on the cold concrete.Erith and Arachne's gazes met, ever since been locked, they are just seeing each other.Their isolated cells, now became exposed, which revealed Lyrien's limp form."Lyrien!" Erith's desperate cry pierced the air.Arachne rushed to Lyrien's cell, horror etched on his face.Lyrien lay unconscious, motionless on the unforgiving floor."Lyrien, no!" Erith's anguish echoed through the corridors.A gunman produced a keycard, unlocking Lyrien's private cell.The door slid open with a metallic screech.They dragged Lyrien out, his limp body bouncing against the floor.Erith and Arachne exchanged frantic glances between each other."Where are they taking him?" Arachne demanded.Lyrien's limp body was shoved forward, landing at Erin's feet.The
Erin swayed to the melancholic melody filling his room, his eyes closed in bliss. but the creaking door broke the spell. The old witch woman entered, her gnarled hands grasping her staff. "Erin, I sense an unusual aura," she said, her eyes narrowing. "You seem... triumphant." Erin's smile widened. "Of course, I always get what I want." The old woman's eyes widened. "You can't mean... Aria?" Erin's fingers flicked. A hidden door slid open, revealing a glass enclosure. Aria lay within, eyes closed, surrounded by ice. The old witch gasped. "Erin, how?" His smile twisted. "Now, my power will multiply. This body will be my vessel. Erin's eyes gleamed with anticipation. "Now, it's time for you to fulfill your end of the bargain," Erin said, his voice dripping with entitlement. The old witch's gaze lingered on Aria's frozen form. "Ah, the legendary cursed wolf," she whispered, awe etched on her face. "Stories of her kind have been passed down for cent
Lyrien crashed onto the cold, damp stone floor, darkness enveloping him.The pungent scent of wolvesbane choked him."Aria!" Lyrien bellowed, desperate.Only echoes replied.Then, a faint voice pierced the void."Lyrien...is that you?" Erith's tremulous voice barely reached him.Lyrien's heart leapt."Erith! Where are you?""Near, I think," Erith replied. "Our cells seem adjacent."But the darkness obscured everything."Do you know where Aria is?" Lyrien pressed, urgency etched in his voice.Arachne's voice floated from a nearby cell."No...Aria was taken separately," she called out, her tone laced with worry.Lyrien's anxiety spiked."Where?" he demanded, his voice echoing off stone.Arachne's voice faltered."I don't know...they separated us during transport."The dungeon gate's rusty hinges creaked, shattering the oppressive silence.Lyrien, Erith, and Arachne remained statue-still, their senses heightened.A lone flashlight beam sliced through the darkness, casting eerie shadows.
Arachne nodded."The fetus's energy resonates with yours, Aria. You're approximately six weeks along."Aria's mind reeled.Pregnant?How could this be?Lyrien's face transformed from shock to awe."Aria, this changes everything," Lyrien said, his voice filled with determination.Arachne nodded."The child's presence amplifies Aria's powers. We must protect them both."Aria's thoughts swirled, torn between fear and wonder.Arachne's expression turned somber."Aria, your curse threatens the child's survival. The darkness within you may consume it."Aria's eyes pleaded with Arachne."Please, there must be a way to save my child."Arachne's voice held a hint of desperation."We need the saliva of the Seven Tower gate chains. It's the only antidote."Lyrien sprang up, his face was set in opposition."Absolutely not! Those chains are poison to Aria. Drinking their saliva could destroy her."Aria's gaze locked onto Arachne."What would happen if I drank it?" she asked, her voice laced with t
Victor stood over Eluned's lifeless body, his eyes were fixed on her pale face. Josh approached him, his eyes was wide with curiosity."Who is she?" Victor asked, his voice was so low and even.Josh stared at Eluned, his expression unreadable. "I don't know," he replied finally.Just then, one of Victor's men shouted from across the room. "Over here!"Victor turned, his interest piqued. He walked over to the man, who was standing near a bookshelf."What is it?" Victor asked.The man gestured to the bookshelf. "I think I found something."Victor's eyes widened as he saw a small opening behind the bookshelf. "A secret passage," he breathed.He turned to Josh. "This might lead to the outside of the house. Maybe they used this passage"Josh's eyes flickered, but he said nothing.Victor's smile grew. "Let's find out.""Alright, guys! Gather around!" Victor called out, his voice echoing through the room. "This might be the passage Aria and the others used to escape. Let's move, now!"His te
Aria PovIn six days I shall be destroyed by the crescent moon.I am cuffed with the metal closing round my wrists, feeding off the energy of my wolf. Before me is the Seven Tower Gate, a dark monolith whose ancient power smothers mine. I'm a mutant-an impending bomb-a danger to my pack.The whispers of 'Born unclean, Threat to self / society,' still follow me. On my face, but also on my flesh, my body littered with scars from my time as their prisoner, their brand. Once each new crescent, and my strength explodes with little care of what it destroys.The gate groaned as it was slowly opened, and a mouldy piece of bread was thrown at my feet. A pitiful gesture to the monster they’d been conditioned to see me as. My father, the infamous Alpha had thrown me in the dephts of the Seven Tower Gate, a prison inside the Organization’s clutches.
