The Alpha King’s Gifted Mate 76
MelanieThe night of the Lunar Love Festival was supposed to be a time for celebration. A time for unity. A time for hope, to remind the Royal Crimson Pack of everything we had fought for, everything we had overcome. But as the sun sank below the horizon, leaving the sky bathed in hues of purple and gold, a sense of dread clung to the air like a thick fog. I could feel it in my bones, in the heavy silence that stretched across the festival grounds, in the watchful eyes of my pack. We were all waiting for something.The distant howls of the rogues had been on my mind all day, but I couldn’t let it show. I had to stand firm. I had to show them that I was still the queen they needed me to be. As the ceremonial fires flickered to life, I tried to push aside the sense of impending doom. I walked toward the gathered crowd, trying to project confidence, to project control.But deep inside, I felt it. The dark cloud that hung over us. The festival wasn’t going to go as planned. I could sense

MelanieThe battlefield was chaos. The Lunar Love Festival, once a symbol of unity and renewal, had devolved into a savage display of bloodshed and violence. I watched from the shadows, where I had retreated to assess the damage. The ground was littered with the bodies of warriors—wolves, rogues, and bears alike—each fallen in the pursuit of their own twisted goals. The air was thick with smoke, the sound of clashing steel and growling beasts echoing in my ears.Marcus and Maxine were locked in a brutal clash, their fangs bared, their claws swiping at each other with deadly intent. I could feel the intensity of their hatred radiating from them, each strike more vicious than the last. Their ambitions had collided head-on, and it was clear neither of them would back down. Maxine wanted power—she wanted to rule the wolves, to bend them to her will. Marcus wanted control, too, but for him, it was about survival. He was willing to do whatever it took to secure his place in the world, even

MelanieThe night air was thick with tension, the smoke from battle still lingering over the royal palace grounds like a suffocating fog. The Lunar Love Festival, once a symbol of unity, had descended into a nightmare of blood and betrayal. Bodies lay scattered across the field, the clash between rogues, bears, and wolves relentless, each side driven by motives that twisted and distorted the very essence of everything we had once stood for.I could feel the weight of it pressing against me, suffocating me, each breath a reminder that nothing would ever be the same again.But there was one thing I knew for sure—I couldn’t let Iris win. I couldn’t let her destroy everything we had fought for, everything we had built. She had been manipulating us all from the start, her dark magic weaving through the fabric of our kingdom, poisoning everything it touched. Now, she was on the brink of achieving her ultimate goal: the sacrifice of the gifted wolves, and perhaps even herself, to gain unimag

MelanieThe air in the chamber crackled with tension, charged with an unnatural energy that seemed to vibrate against my skin. My body was battered and bruised from the struggle, but my heart burned with a determination that wouldn’t waver—not now, not when the fate of our kingdom rested in the balance. I had made my choice. I had decided to destroy the moonstone, and I would see it through, no matter the cost.Iris’s magic pressed in on me, squeezing the life out of me as I struggled to break free of her hold. Her cruel laughter echoed through the room, filling my ears with her twisted satisfaction. She was close to victory, I could feel it. But she hadn’t won yet. I refused to let her.With every ounce of strength I had left, I reached out to Delona and Aveline, my gifted wolves, my only hope in this war. They had stood by me through so much, and now, they were the ones who would help me break free. We had made the choice together—if we were to destroy the moonstone, we would do it

MelanieViktor stood at the edge of the battlefield, his breath coming in ragged gasps, his fists clenched so tightly that his knuckles had turned white. The sounds of war raged around him—clashing steel, the screech of war cries, the howl of wolves and the roar of bears—but it all felt distant. It all felt so far removed from the burning fury that consumed him now. Grief. Rage. Betrayal. The three emotions had fused within him into a singular, unstoppable force. He had believed the worst of the wolves. He had believed they were the cause of his daughter’s death. But now—now, with the evidence laid bare before him—he knew the truth. His enemies were not the wolves. No, the real enemy had been standing right beside him all along. Quincy Otto, the very wolf who had promised him victory and revenge, had been working behind his back. It wasn’t just the wolves or the rogues. No. It was Quincy Otto himself, pulling strings from the shadows, manipulating Viktor’s every move for his own be

Chapter: The Weight of VictoryI couldn’t breathe. I couldn’t move. The weight of the moonstone’s energy had drained every last ounce of strength I had. The battlefield around me had become a blur of smoke and chaos, the sounds of war muffled by the deafening thrum of power that was still coursing through my veins. But I could feel it slipping away—like sand through my fingers, like the last breath of a dying star.The rogues had retreated, their forces splintering under the weight of my attack, the last, desperate push that had cost me everything. The moonstone's energy, the very source of the wolves' connection to our ancestors, had been the catalyst. I had used every last shred of it to break their lines, to force them to run. I had done it. The rogues were retreating, running like the rabid animals they were, but the victory felt hollow. There was no triumph in the way my body collapsed to the ground, drained and broken.I didn’t even have the strength to open my eyes. I could fee

MelanieI had expected victory to feel different. I had imagined it would be like a light lifting from my shoulders, the weight of an impossible struggle finally being cast off. But instead, the air around me was thick with tension, with uncertainty. The shards of the moonstone lay scattered at my feet, their light dimming as the last vestiges of Iris's power crumbled. Yet even as her magic unraveled, I felt a gnawing emptiness within me. The sacrifice had been great. Too great. The battle, however, was far from over.Iris’s power—her dark, twisted influence—was no longer the force it once was. The enchantments she had placed upon the land, upon us, were now flickering and dying, unraveling like fraying threads. But she wasn’t going to give up easily. I could feel the desperation radiating from her as she stood across the battlefield, her eyes wild, searching for a way to regain control.The rogues, too, were retreating. Their ranks had been broken, their leadership shattered by the fa

MelanieThe battlefield was eerily silent, the kind of silence that follows a storm, when the thunder fades but the clouds still hang heavy in the sky. I stood among the remnants of battle, watching as our warriors tended to the wounded, clearing the debris, and accounting for the fallen. The once-vibrant colors of the Lunar Love Festival had been replaced by ash and blood, the scent of burnt wood and flesh lingering in the air like an unshakable memory. I looked around at the faces of the survivors—some of them bloodied, others weary beyond measure. The pack was still intact, for now, but the price had been steep. There were too many faces that were missing. Too many who would never return to us. The gifted wolves, too, were scattered across the field, their abilities now gone with the shattering of the moonstone. I had no way of knowing if that sacrifice would haunt us forever, or if it would, in time, be a small price to pay for the chance to rebuild.I stood apart from the rest,

The Alpha King’s Gifted Mate 104
MelanieThe return to the Royal Crimson Pack’s territory was bittersweet. The sun was rising as we crested the last hill, painting the blood-soaked horizon in shades of gold and crimson. It felt like a cruel irony, the beauty of the dawn juxtaposed against the pain etched in every step we took. The pack lands were quieter than they should have been, the air heavy with grief and exhaustion. Our warriors bore the weight of loss, and though they moved forward, their eyes told the stories of the friends, brothers, and sisters we’d left behind. Rook, still unconscious, was carried by a pair of strong wolves. He looked fragile in their arms, a stark contrast to the overwhelming power he’d wielded as the Alpha of Shadows. I walked alongside them, refusing to leave his side. Oswald stayed close to me, his steady presence grounding me. His hand brushed against mine, a silent reassurance that I wasn’t alone. As we passed through the gates of the Royal Crimson Pack’s stronghold, the rema

MelanieThe ground trembled beneath us, cracks spiraling outward like jagged veins across the temple floor. Dust filled the air, choking and thick, but I didn’t care. My eyes were locked on him—Rook, standing tall in the center of the crumbling ritual circle, his body radiating dark power that rippled through the air like a storm. The sky above the temple churned, dark clouds roiling in an unnatural vortex, blotting out the moon and stars. The world seemed to hold its breath, suspended in the shadow of the Alpha of Shadows. “Rook!” I shouted, my voice hoarse but defiant. He turned toward me, his glowing eyes piercing through the gloom. For a moment, I thought I saw the man I had come to know—the fierce, determined wolf who had fought alongside us against the cult. But that glimmer of familiarity was swallowed by the overwhelming darkness. “You shouldn’t have come,” Rook said, his voice resonating with a power that wasn’t entirely his own. It was layered, twisted, as though ano
The Alpha King’s Gifted Mate 102
Quincy OttoThe air was suffocating, thick with the weight of ancient power and an oppressive darkness that gnawed at the edges of reality. The temple walls trembled, their runes bleeding crimson light as the cult's ritual surged toward its peak. At the center of it all was Rook, bound in chains of dark energy, his form writhing as the magic engulfed him. The moonstone hovered above him, its light pulsing in time with the ritual’s chants, casting eerie shadows across the chamber.I stood in the shadows, watching it unfold. For all the years I had plotted, schemed, and waited, the moment was finally here. My son, my legacy, stood on the brink of transformation, poised to become the Alpha of Shadows. But this was not a moment of triumph—it was a culmination of pain, regret, and a darkness I could no longer control.Rook’s screams echoed through the chamber, his voice raw with both fury and anguish. I could feel his resistance, the fierce battle within him as he fought against the chains

MelanieRook’s capture weighed heavily on me, a constant ache in my chest that I couldn’t shake. He had warned us, risked everything to fight against his own bloodline, and now he was in their hands. The image of him being dragged away by those cultists haunted me, even in my waking hours. But I wouldn’t let his sacrifice be for nothing.Oswald and I stood in the war room, the map of the Blackspire Mountains spread out before us. The air was thick with tension as we plotted our next move. Hazel stood to my right, her fingers tracing the lines of the map, while Quincy Otto lingered near the edge of the room, flipping through an ancient, tattered book.“They’ll take him here,” Quincy said finally, pointing to a spot on the map marked with jagged peaks. “The Temple of the Veil. It’s where the cult conducts its most powerful rituals. If they mean to turn Rook into the Alpha of Shadows, they’ll need the temple’s energy to do it.”Oswald’s hands clenched into fists at his sides. “Then we’ll

MelanieThe air was thick with tension as we gathered in the central hall of the Royal Crimson Pack’s fortress. The wariness that clung to the room was palpable. Every face around me—Oswald’s, Quincy’s, Hazel’s, and even Rook’s—carried the weight of what lay ahead. The cult wasn’t just a threat to us anymore; they were a threat to everything we had fought to protect.“Let’s get this straight,” Oswald said, his voice tight as he folded his arms across his chest. “We’re trusting a rogue who’s the son of the enemy and a traitor who once conspired against the pack. Tell me how that doesn’t sound like the worst idea we’ve ever had.”I glanced at Rook, who stood rigid near the corner, his jaw clenched but his gaze unwavering. He wasn’t fazed by the hostility, which only added to the enigma he’d become. Quincy, on the other hand, smirked faintly, clearly enjoying Oswald’s skepticism.“Because if we don’t,” I said, breaking the silence, “we lose any chance of stopping this before it’s too lat
The Alpha King’s Gifted Mate 99
RookThe battle had settled into uneasy silence, the air thick with the acrid scent of blood and the sharper sting of betrayal. Rogues lay scattered across the battlefield, their bodies lifeless, but it wasn’t a victory. The cult leader—my father—had escaped, and with him, the artifact that could doom us all. I stood in the eye of the storm, my heart warring against my instincts as I turned to face Melanie and Oswald.Their eyes bore into me, a mixture of fury and mistrust. They had every right to question me. My past was steeped in lies, half-truths, and bloodlines I wished I could sever. “You need to explain yourself,” Oswald growled, his tone low and dangerous. “Now.”I took a step back, holding up my hands in a gesture of surrender. “I will. But first, I need you to understand that I’m not here to hurt you. I never was.”“You expect us to believe that after what we just saw?” Melanie’s voice was sharp, but beneath it, I could hear the tremor of uncertainty. Her golden eyes search
The Alpha King’s Gifted Mate 98
MelanieThe sound of howls pierced the still night air, a chilling harbinger of the storm descending upon us. My heart raced, a drumbeat in the chaos as the pack mobilized. Every wolf—strong or wounded, young or seasoned—stood ready to defend our home. I could feel the energy humming in the air, dark and unnatural, an unwelcome intrusion into our sacred land.Beside me, Oswald barked orders, his voice carrying authority and resolve despite the tension etched into his features. His hand briefly brushed mine, a fleeting but steadying touch. I drew strength from it, pushing aside my fears. The rogues were here, and there would be no turning back.The first wave hit hard. The rogues, eyes gleaming with an unnatural light, were faster and more coordinated than any enemy we’d faced before. Their movements were sharp, their attacks precise, as if they were being guided by an unseen force. I shifted into my wolf form, joining the fray with a feral growl. My claws tore through the flank of a

MelanieRook stood at the edge of the firelight, his silver eyes catching the flicker of flames as he paced. The weight of his presence was palpable, and the silence between us stretched like a taut wire. Oswald leaned against the nearby table, arms crossed, his gaze sharp as he waited for Rook to speak. I stood beside him, my thoughts racing. The pendant, the shard, the whispers of the Shadowstone—all of it was beginning to form a picture, but the edges were jagged, incomplete.Finally, Rook stopped pacing and looked at me. His jaw tightened as if the words he was about to say physically hurt to utter. “You want the truth? Fine. My pack, the Shadowfangs, is gone. They were wiped out by a force unlike anything you’ve ever faced.”My breath caught. Though the devastation of war wasn’t new to me, the bitterness in his tone carried a weight that made my chest tighten. “What kind of force?” I asked.“A rogue Alpha,” Rook said, his voice low and cold. “Not just any rogue. This one isn’t ac
The Alpha King’s Gifted Mate 96
MelanieThe silver pendant lay on the table in front of me, its faint glow casting eerie shadows across the room. I couldn’t take my eyes off it. Its intricate wolf design shimmered with an otherworldly energy, a reminder of the forces we had yet to understand. Rook’s sudden disappearance and the organized rogue attack weighed heavily on my mind. This pendant was more than just a clue—it was a thread connecting us to the growing storm.I reached out to touch it, hesitating when my fingers hovered above the surface. Even without making contact, I could feel the power radiating from it, a strange resonance that felt both familiar and foreign. It reminded me of the moonstone, the ancient relic we’d fought so hard to destroy. Could it be connected to that same magic?“Don’t,” Hazel said sharply, breaking my trance. She stepped forward, her expression grim as she glanced between me and the pendant. “We don’t know what it’s capable of.”“I wasn’t going to,” I said, pulling my hand back. My
