AMELIA

"The candle didn’t go out after you left.” Starlette said, and my suspicion grew immediately. “Which means…”

“They are here.” I finished for her, feeling a sudden surge of dark magic. Even though he wasn’t here physically and was only present through vessels, his magic was overwhelmingly powerful. I could only imagine how strong he truly was. I feared he might be even more powerful than my father, the clan leader.

“We’ll wait for you at the spell circle.” My father glanced at me. “Amelia, let’s go.”

Flicking my gaze toward Starlette, worry filled me. "Please be careful," I urged, dropping my gaze to her belly. It was a bit concerning that she wasn’t showing yet, but that was a discussion for another time. “You know you can’t stress yourself.”

She nodded with a tight smile, and I followed my father, taking his hand as he led me out of the room and through the halls of the packhouse. It was total chaos—women and children were panicking, finding their way to safety, while the warr

    LUCIUSWe all gathered around the spell circle, all eyes locked on the dozens of men trapped in it. I was supposed to stay focused, but my gaze kept shifting to the witch. The force pulling me to her was strong, and I was barely able to hold it together. All I wanted to do—all I could think about was rushing over and claiming her as mine. My wolf was no help, either—he was practically vibrating with excitement, urging me to get closer. He craved to be near her as much as I did.“She`s beautiful.” Kai mumbled. I couldn’t agree less. Dressed in a black lace dress that hugged her figures, Amelia was mesmerizing. She had wide green eyes that captivated me and rosy lips that were so tempting. She wasn’t too tall, nor was she too short; she just had the perfect height. Oh, my mate was indeed beautiful. But everything was still too hard to fathom. And with the way she was also stealing glances at me, I could tell she was as shocked as I was.“Amelia, darling. Let`s begin.” Her father said, b

    STARLETTEI had truly hoped this would work; we all did. But despite our best efforts, we were outmanoeuvred by the very person we sought. Despite our plan, he was one step ahead of us. And when did he even enter the park? The thought of that was troubling. He knew where we lived and could strike whenever he pleased. But we knew nothing about his whereabouts or what his mission really entailed. If we don’t act faster and smarter, it was only a matter of time before he succeeded.My gaze settled on the dozens of men before us. “What would we do with them now?”“Kill them. They are all useless.” Maximus unsheathed his sword and was about to lunge towards them. But I held him back.“Max.” I called after him. “They could still be useful.”He paused and thought it over. “Okay. Warriors. Take turns guarding them. Tom, you’re in charge.”My gaze shifted to Lucius, who was still unconscious on the floor. "Please, some of you should take him to the hospital.”I couldn’t help but wonder when he

    MAXIMUSWhatever truth she intended to reveal, I wasn’t sure I was ready to hear it. I dreaded the possibility that that pup might not be mine. After years of hoping, it had felt as if my wish had finally come true—only to risk being taken away from me again. The truth terrified me, but I couldn’t avoid it; I had to face it.Folding my arms across my chest, I asked. “What do you have to say?”“The warrior you killed—Jeremiah—was my mate.” She admitted. Before I could say anything, she continued. “But he is not the father of my baby. I only met him after I had conceived, but I couldn’t tell anyone. I tried to stay away from him.”“That doesn’t seem like it!” I growled, rage building up within me. I hated her with everything in me.“What would you have had me do when you neglected me?” She shot back. “I was bored, frustrated, and depressed. I didn’t have anyone to talk to. That was why I started entertaining him.” She burst into tears. “Max, please believe me. I am not lying. The baby i

    LUCIUSI opened my eyes to find Amelia by my side. Thinking I might be dreaming, I closed my eyes briefly, trying to erase her image from my mind. But when I looked again, she was still there, her beautiful face warming my heart. The scent of honey and cinnamon drifted to me, soothing and comforting. I loved this feeling, yet at the same time, I was confused. What was she doing here? In my room?A wide smile spread across her lips. “You are awake.”“What are you doing here?” I voiced out my thoughts.“I was just making sure you are okay. But since you are awake, I’ll take my leave now.” She stood up and turned to leave, but I quickly stopped her.“No. Don’t leave. Not yet.” I muttered. She turned to look at me, her wide green eyes mesmerising me. “How was it? Were you able to trace the magic?”She shook her head disappointedly. “Gabriel was one step ahead of us. He altered the spell and made it that the invisibles’ magic would seize to exist the second they step into the circle.”“Dam

    STARLETTEMaximus was the most handsome man I’d ever seen, even while he was asleep. He looked so sexy, laying only in his briefs, the sight of his toned muscles making me wet. Surprisingly, I woke up before him this morning. I figured he must be exhausted—after everything that happened yesterday, he still had to go back to his office to work. I’d already fallen asleep before he came to bed.His eyes shot open, and a smile spread across his lips. “Good morning, love.”I leaned in and kissed him on his cheek. “Good morning, Max. Slept good?”He nodded. “And you?”“Yes.” I muttered softly.A mischievous smile crept onto his face, and I knew immediately he was up to something. He sat up, his hands sliding to my waist, lifting me smoothly onto his lap.“Max!” I gasped, laughter bubbling out of me.He grinned and brought his lips close to mine. “You don’t just kiss me on the cheek, woman. I want everything.” He captured my lips in a gentle, slow kiss. Heat rushed through my body, and I f

    MAXIMUS“Well, good evening, Alpha.” Silas greeted.“Good evening. Why are you calling?” I asked gruffly.He cleared his throat. "It has come to my attention that your pack has been under frequent attacks lately by certain invisibles, and you’ve been unable to stop them."“You shouldn’t have to worry about my pack, Alpha. Worry about yours.” I spat.“I have every reason to worry about these attacks, because once they are finally successful, they’d take over the whole of North. Which region do you think they’ll target next? The south. That’s why we have to work together to get rid of them for good.”"Focus on your own pack," I insisted. I wasn’t about to give him a chance to infiltrate mine; that’s exactly what he was after. He didn’t give a damn about the North.“What if I told you that I know how to catch them?” He pressed.He had my attention now. “How?”“I’ll tell you in person. When would you be available to meet?” He asked.“Tomorrow. My Luna’s coronation ceremony is tomorrow eve

    STARLETTEI followed Lucius and Amelia, calling after them. “Lucius. Amelia.”They stopped and turned to look at me at the same time. I cast my gaze downward, noticing their linked hands. “Explain.”“Explain what? Amelia asked. She knew exactly what I was talking about.“Both of you. Why the sudden closeness?” My eyes narrowed as I put forward my suspicion. “Are you guys… mates?”Silence ensued, and they averted their gazes, looking everywhere but me. And that gave me my answer. “Oh, my.” I gasped, finding it hard to believe. “Since when?”Luicius cleared his through. “When the invisibles attacked. Just after I got my wolf.”“We’ll talk about you getting your wolf later. But... first…” I opened my arms wide and hugged them both at the same time. “Congratulations. I am so happy for you guys.” I was confused but happy for them regardless.“Thank you.” They muttered in chorus.“But…” My brows furrowed as I tried to make sense of the situation. “How is it possible?

    STARLETTEThe traditional robe laid out on the bed was pristine white, symbolising purity. It was the same robe worn by Maximus' mother and countless Lunas before her. Today, it would be mine. And after I took my oath, I would wear the crown that every Luna before me had worn with pride."I can't believe this is finally happening," Bella beamed, her eyes sparkling as she took in the sight of the majestic robe on the bed. She turned to me with a radiant smile, prancing over and resting her hands on my shoulders. "You're going to be a perfect Luna."“Thank you, Bella.” I blushed as I looked at my reflection through the mirror. The makeup artist did a really great job on my face. The hairstylist also. My hair swept up in a tight bun, and I couldn’t help but imagine how beautiful the crown would look on it. Bella straightened up, giving my back a light pat. "Alright, get up. Let's get you dressed—the ceremony is about to start."I took a final glance at my reflection, then rose and follo

    MAXIMUSI hadn’t been here in a very long while. But everything, everywhere, still looked the same. I was very skeptical about coming here, but I didn’t was to risk letting any opportunity that could help us in catching Gabriel slip through my fingers. He was getting out of hand, and he had to be stopped.Starlette and I were shown into a spacious living area, where we waited for Silas. Amelia who was cloaked, also quietly sat down in one of the couches. The room felt overly grand, its ornate furnishings clearly meant to impress rather than comfort.We didn’t have to wait for long before Silas showed up with a crown on his head, a face-splitting grin tearing his lips apart. My gaze subconsciously lingered on the crown heavily encrusted with diamonds, wondering if it wasn’t so heavy on his head for him to be wearing it so casually around his pack when there wasn’t an important event. I always used to avoid wearing mine unless it was utterly important. “A king must always wear his crow

    STARLETTE“You’re so unbelievably sexy. I can’t emphasize it enough,” Maximus whispered in my ear, his deep voice sending a shiver down my spine. His strong hand curled gently around my throat as he sought my lips, kissing me ever so passionately as water cascaded down our bodies. We were under the shower and had gone two rounds now, not able to get enough of each other. I could never get enough of him.“Should we go again?” He asked after he pulled away from me, sucking his bottom lip into his mouth.As much as I would love that, we both had a lot of work to do for the pack, and we couldn’t spend the rest of the day making love with each other.I pressed my lips to his. “I wish I could say yes, but...”“Then say yes.” He cut me off, grinning.“No,” I said with mock sternness, laughing softly.“Such a pity,” he murmured. Before I could respond, he lifted me effortlessly by my thighs, his strong arms holding me steady. Turning off the shower with one hand, he stepped out and carried m

    71| Golden Lights.AMELIAI blinked repeatedly, trying to make sense of what Father had just said. “What do you mean?”He looked away, facing the window again as he began. “When you were born, we realized how powerful you are. As a newborn who didn’t even know the world yet, you almost set the entire house on fire. It took the efforts of me and five other elders to stop you.”I gasped in shock. He glanced at me briefly and nodded. “Yes, that’s how powerful you were. We knew the destruction such power could bring if left unchecked. So, we decided to take most of it away and leave you with only a fraction.”“Where is that power now?” I whispered, still trying to process what he had just told me.“It is hidden in plain sight. You wouldn’t even know.” He finally moved away from the window, and I trailed behind him as he walked to my bed, picking up the pink teddy bear I had owned since I was a child. I grew so attached to the teddy bear that it was the only one I frequently played with,

    AMELIAThe moment I got home, I grabbed my grandmother’s grimoire and began to comb through it with fervor. There had to be something in there—some ancient spell that could free Lucius. The more I searched, the more frustration gnawed at me. No matter how many pages I flipped through, I couldn’t find a single spell for releasing a human form trapped within its wolf. The only related spell I came across was the one I already knew—the one designed to free a wolf bound within its human form. The frustration ripping through me filled to its brim, and I flung the grimoire across the room, groaning in my hands. I hated this!The door to my room creaked open, and my father stepped inside. “Ah, I was right. I sensed my princess’ presence and decided to—” He froze mid-sentence, the color on his face draining the moment he saw my state. What’s wrong?” he asked, his tone laced with concern as he strode over to me. “I need help!” I exhaled shakily, running my fingers through my hair, frustrati

    STARLETTEI stirred in bed, reaching out instinctively to cuddle with Maximus, but my hand met only the cool sheets. The empty space beside me made my heart sink for a moment, and I snapped my eyes open, scanning the room. He was nowhere to be found. Stretching, I yawned and mind-linked him. “Working already?”His voice came through immediately, warm and teasing. “She’s awake—my sleeping beauty.”My lips curled into a smile. “I wanted to have you all to myself today.”"Well, I could drop everything and come to you right now. All you need to do is ask."I giggled, shaking my head even though he couldn’t see me. “As tempting as that sounds, I know you have to work. Someone has to keep the pack running smoothly, and these are my people now too. I care about them. So, I’ll see you later.” He chuckled. “I love you.”“I love you too.” I replied before cutting off the mind link. Sliding out of bed, I grabbed a robe and wrapped it around my body. I felt no need to change into a proper outf

    STARLETTEWithout a second thought, I asked Iris to take over, my chest squeezing so tightly that I could barely breathe.“Max. What happened?” I quickly asked.“What do you mean?” He asked, confusion lacing his tone.“You’re—you’re—” I stammered, trailing off as I realized I was overthinking. The trauma of witnessing Lucius being trapped seemed to have taken deeper root than I had anticipated. I shook my head and forced a smile. “Nothing. I just didn’t expect to see you shift.” He took careful steps forward, his wolf nuzzling affectionately against Iris. “Nile wants to run.”“Me too!” Iris howled excitedly before spinning around and darting off. “Catch me if you can!” she called after them. “Piece of cake.” Nile yelled back as he began chasing after us. Iris glanced behind her and realizing he was gaining on her, pushed herself harder. She sprinted faster than ever, taking sharp turns to outmaneuver Nile. Her speed and agility were impressive, her joy infectious as she danced thr

    MAXIMUSSomehow, I was worried about Lucius, and helping him had become one of my priorities. Even though our relationship was far from perfect, he was still my blood. Starlette stared at Amelia, curiosity in her eyes. “What do you plan to say when we get there?”“I don’t know.” She shrugged. “I just want to say something that would make him feel even a fraction of the pain I’m feeling right now.”I suddenly felt something weird within me—pity. The more I looked at Amelia, the more I understood the pain she was passing through. I didn’t need a special announcement to know that Starlette’s theory was indeed correct—she was Lucius’ mate. And having one’s mate go through such a difficult situation takes a toll on the other. If anything ever happened to Starlette, I would lose my mind.Sighing heavily, I took a step closer to Amelia. “I get how hurt you are,” I said, choosing my words carefully. “But it’s best to avoid doing anything rash. If we let him know that we’re aware, it could co

    STARLETTEThe moment Gabriel vanished, Amelia was released, and she collapsed to the ground, letting out a rapid succession of coughs. After catching her breath, she looked up, her eyes widening in horror as she sprinted over to Lucius. Tears poured down her cheeks as she hugged his form.“No!” She let out a screeching scream.I stood frozen, unable to process everything that had happened. It felt like a dream—a dark, twisted dream that I desperately wanted to wake up from. I shook my head repeatedly, hoping to shake away the horror, but the reality only became sharper. Lucius had truly been trapped in his wolf form.A tremor coursed through my body, and my first instinct was to go to the only person who could bring me comfort."Max..." I mind-linked him, my fear pouring through my voice. "Where are you?" His voice echoed in my mind, laced with urgency. He could sense the terror in my voice. "You’re mind-linking the whole pack. Try to focus only on me when you answer."I pressed my

    STARLETTEThe moment Maximus reached us, he pulled me to his side, his arm tightening around my waist with a possessive grip. His gaze held a steely edge as he glared at Silas, who only smirked in response, as if he hadn’t just been shamelessly flirting with me.“Good evening, Alpha,” Silas greeted, sounding almost amused.“Good evening,” Maximus replied, his voice strained and his jaw muscles visibly tensed. “I thought you weren’t going to make it.”Silas gave a casual shrug. “I encountered some unexpected delays.” He spread his arms wide in a grand gesture. “But here I am. I knew how important this meeting was, so I had to make sure I attended.” He glanced at me, “Would you keep my Luna company while I discuss with him?”Just then, a red-haired woman appeared by Silas’s side. Freckles dotted her face, giving her a delicate look. I raised an eyebrow as I took in the scene. Silas had dared to flirt with me while his own Luna was nearby. The audacity was astounding.“Good evening,” she
