The moment I heard the pack fighter, I took a step back. As I gazed around with my eyes wide open, I came dangerously close to falling down, but I managed to keep myself up by the wall next to me.My mind was unable to process anything that was going on. Fear started to make my heart beat faster. One by one, I turned my gaze to the members of my family.My parents looked shocked by the news. I slowly moved my gaze to look at my little babies.My eyes were filled with tears, and I couldn't even suppress them anymore because I didn't have the strength to do so at this moment.A war meant the dead bodies of so many people. Most of them would belong to Alpha's family. I could not lose any of my family members. What about my children? They were so little. How could they survive the war?As fury grew within my heart, I experienced a feeling of being pierced into my heart."Backstabber," I muttered while clenching my jaw.How could Adrian do that?My parents and my brother turned their heads
I turned my gaze away from Eric because I was at a loss to think of anything. Even though I did not have any feelings for Adrian anymore, that did not mean that I wanted him to die.However, how dare he attack my pack?Not only that, he attacked the pack when my brother was sick. He knew if he called out a war against us right now, it would be easier for him to win.'What a loser you are, Alpha Adrian! If you hurt my brother or give him a single wound, I swear I won't let you go,' I thought.I saw my brother leave the pack house with Eric. All of his officials, who came to take him, also left with him.When they left, I was staring at the door, which had been shut shortly after they had left. It was Jason's command that the door needed to be closed until he gave permission for it to be opened.In addition, there was a door in the back of the pack house. The establishment of this was done with the intention of protecting the lives of the royal family from those who would seek to take t
Third POVUnder the silvery light of the moon, all of the wolves were fighting as if it were not only a war for their territory but also a battle between life and death.As the growls and groans rocked the trees in the forest, the temperature of the air started to slowly decrease.The rivalry of years was the only thing anyone could describe by watching the war.The smell of blood was present in the air, and it was combined with the odor of destruction and disaster.Natalia tried to pace faster so that she could reach the war as soon as possible.She tried to contact her pack's gamma."I'm coming," she said in the mind link."Don't do that. Go back. We can't secure your safety. It's not a battle against—"She closed the mind link, as she did not want to hear any excuses."Nancy, it's your time to show who you will choose," Natalia reminded her wolf.Nancy was silent as she let Natalia take over. It was like she did not want to fight against her mate.Natalia got mad at her own wolf. S
After being informed by his pack fighters that there was a big alpha who had joined the war, Adrian turned around to see who the Alpha was and who frightened his pack fighters.However, when his eyes fell on the wolf standing afar from him, his entire body froze.The fact that the wolf that had been hunting him in his nightmare actually existed was a complete and utter surprise to him."Adrian, I'm on my way to you. As you have ordered, I have instructed our main fighters to make their way to the pack house."He heard his beta, Patric's voice, in the mind link. But his eyes were fixed on the black wolf. All this time, he thought the wolf's eyes were kind of mysterious. However, they looked familiar to him."Who are you?" he asked."Your death," the wolf replied.He could not be more shocked. The voice was familiar to him. He recognized the voice but could not believe that it was hers.He thought it was a male wolf, but it turned out to be an alpha she-wolf. But not only that, it was ac
Natalia could not believe what she was watching. Alpha Leo, whom Jason referred to as his friend, was attacking him!She did not give it a second thought as she jumped to that side and rushed toward Alpha Leo. He had not shifted yet.It seemed like he did not come here through the forest, but he was already in the pack, waiting for a chance to attack Jason.As soon as Natalia proceeded to him, many wolves came to her to stop her from reaching Alpha Leo.Natalia glanced at Jason, whose wolf was crawling on the ground. She noticed Eric trying to fight with Alpha Leo. But Leo had other stakes in his hands.Natalia tried to shove the wolves in front of her. Nevertheless, they attacked her altogether. Though she was giant in size, the way they kept biting her made her feel excruciating pain.At that time, a black wolf jumped on them, making them fear him. They were already losing strength by tackling a giant wolf. Now, handling another massive wolf was out of their ability.Natalia turned
Natalia's body jerked at the pull. The feelings of pain that she experienced were indescribable.Adrian drew closer to her and started to lick the spot where the stake had pierced her neck."What are you doing?" she asked him, trying to move her head away from him.Wrath was visible in the eyes. He appeared to be in a rage. When she was getting her consciousness back, she realized that he was healing her.But why?Could it have been his wolf that was trying to save his mate? Because it was impossible for Alpha Adrian to have any interest in saving her.There was a growl of caution coming from Patric. When Adrian heard that, he instantly turned around. When he looked, he spotted a wolf running in the direction of the pack house, which was close to them. It was then that he shifted his gaze to the people who had emerged from the pack house.Alpha Martin shifted to save his wife and his grandchildren from attacks."Dad!"Natalia yelled over the mind link in an attempt to prevent him from
Natalia's POVI was feeling horrified. How did the spell of the years break just by one growl?I could see Aria got his father's eyes, and Noah got mine. They had no idea what was going on there.For the sake of protecting them, my mother tucked them behind her. They peeked at the fight to look at it clearly.I assumed it was the other pack's fighters who tried to attack my family; that was why they came out of the pack house.But why didn't they run away from the back door?There were so many questions that captured my mind. However, when I heard Adrian's another angry growl, it shook me a little."They are my children!"I realized that he had finally learned the truth. What should I do now?When I glanced at him, I saw nothing except pure hostility directed against me, which had not been present there a while ago.He made a turn toward my children and began to sprint in their direction.I was shocked. There was no way I would let him get my children.I had the intention of going aft
I tried to say that he could back out of the war in our mind links. We still had time. Alpha Leo would die soon since I had bitten him enough. So the throne would be mine directly.If Adrian backed out, I would not have to kill him. I did not have any wish to make my children orphans, though I would never let them go with him as long as the pack was mine.To my surprise, he shut down all the links as if he were done listening to everyone.His red eyes were declaring that he was not pleased with learning the truth.I stared into his eyes after I stopped attacking him."Natalia! Save your brother!"I heard my mother's piercing scream in our mind link. I heard my father's growl when his body was shoved to the ground.I turned in Jason's direction and saw Alpha Leo had already stabbed another stake in Jason's other leg using his mouth. Jason was senseless on the ground.Even after losing one leg, Alpha Leo was limping, preparing to bite Jason's neck to kill him.No one around him was tryi
