Krimson's P.O.V

In the midst of the dimly lit alley, an eerie sensation prickled along my spine, a tingling that made my instincts leap into high alert. It was as though something within the shadows beckoned to me, a whisper from the darkness. My steps faltered, eyes narrowing as I caught a glimpse of movement—a shape that darted and danced with the shifting light, elusive yet alluringly present.

Driven by curiosity and a surge of inexplicable fascination, I abandoned caution and pursued the elusive form, my heart pounding in sync with my hastening steps. Each stride pushed me closer, or so it seemed, to the mysterious entity that seemed to playfully taunt my senses.

Yet, no matter how swift I moved, the shadow danced just beyond my reach, slipping through my fingers like smoke on the wind. It defied the laws of reality, a true enigma, leaving me in a frenzied pursuit through the labyrinth of alleyways and corners, my determination to capture it growing with each pass

    Lilac's P.O.V As I walked through the school gates the next day, the familiar hum of chatter and laughter faded into the background. I could feel the eyes of my classmates lingering on me, drawn to the remnants of the skirmish that had left me with a few cuts and bruises. Despite my attempts to conceal them beneath long sleeves and careful arrangement of my hair, the evidence of the fight with Krimson was unmistakable. Del was the first to notice, his concern evident in the furrow of his brow and the worried look in his eyes. He approached me, a mix of worry and curiosity painted across his face. But as he tried to touch the bruise on my cheek, I flinched back, not wanting him to touch me at that moment. I appreciated his concern, his genuine care for my well-being, but I wasn't ready to share the whole story, not yet. Especially when it could lead to the revelation that Krimson was my mate. "Is everything alright?" Del's worry only seemed to increase

    Lilac's P.O.V I couldn't believe my ears. Krimson suggested that I delve into the realm of Silver breeders? It was an unexpected twist in the path of my studies, one that left me utterly stunned. Krimson, who had purposely kept my own identity hidden from me, taking advantage of my naivety about my true heritage…was not the kind of man who would want someone he hates to get the adequate knowledge they need to win against him. And yet, here he was, urging me to explore precisely that…my identity as a Silver Alpha Breeder. "Are you sure about that?" I asked Silver skeptically. "That Krimson really wanted you to teach me more about the Silver Breeders?" "Positive." Silver nodded enthusiastically. "Wanna go find out what books he referred to? It's supposed to be in the mythology section of the library." The mere mention of the mythology section was enough to send a thrill of curiosity coursing through me. It was as

    Lilac's P.O.V "What do you mean?" Silver frowned at my question. Ever since I found out, and ever since I started dreaming about Krimson and Harmona…I had always wondered if there was a connection between these two occurrences. Because if I thought back to the time when the dreams had started…it was around the time I had first used my powers against Serena. Could these two events be related in any form? I had always wondered if I was the sole silver wolf in our midst. Silvers were usually part of a genetic line, right? Probably inherited from one generation to the next? Could unraveling this mystery help me find out more about my dreams as well? "Silvers don't just pop up randomly, right?" I asked, a tinge of uncertainty threading through my words. "I've been wondering if there's any way to find out if I'm truly the only one, you know? Maybe there's a way to trace it, to figure out if there were others before me…in my old pack." I waited anxiousl

    Lilac's P.O.V My heart dropped into the pit of my stomach, a shiver coursing down my spine as the words echoed in my mind. The woman who haunted my dreams, whose presence felt both familiar and distant, was a part of me, woven into the fabric of my existence in a way I never comprehended. The realization hit me like a tidal wave, a forceful collision of truth that shattered the fragile semblance of my reality. But the shock didn't end there. The revelation intertwined with another agonizing thread of truth—Harmona was Krimson's first mate, the cherished partner whose life was brutally ended by my father's hand. The weight of this knowledge bore down on me like a crushing burden, a suffocating realization that the lives of those I held dear were intricately entangled in a web of tragedy and betrayal. My mind raced with an overwhelming sense of disbelief. How could fate be so cruel, weaving such a complex tapestry of connections, entwining the past with the present in s

    Lilac's P.O.V Wrapping my arms around myself, I looked around his posh living area, afraid to get blood or muddy water onto his million dollar carpets as my entire body shivered from the cold. "Take off your clothes." Krimson's voice caught me off-guard as he walked into the room with a large white towel. "You're dripping all over the place." "Just…point me to the bathroom." I spoke past trembling lips, keeping my eyes downcast so I didn't have to look at his face. "I'll change inside." "I've prepared a bath for you with natural herbs, so you don't irritate your wounds." He held out the towel for me and then dropped a laundry basket at my feet. "But you're not dripping muddy water all over my white carpets. Take them off." "Wow, you're just dying to see me naked, aren't you." I muttered under my breath as I gave in and started unbuttoning my shirt. At least he couldn't complain if I stay

    Krimson's P.O.V Before I could get up from the floor, Lilac's hand reached out, cupping my cheeks with both hands, and pulled me toward her, crashing her lips into mine. In that fleeting moment, time stood still, and the world around us faded into a blur. The air crackled with electricity, charged with an unspoken desire that seemed to envelop us both. I could feel the heat of Lilac's body so close to mine, the air tinged with the subtle scent of her perfume. Our breaths mingled, creating a delicate dance of anticipation, as if the universe held its breath as we did, too. With a tender hesitation, I reached out and gently brushed my fingers against her cheek, savoring the softness of her skin. The touch ignited a spark within me, a flame that danced and swirled, consuming any remnants of doubt I had left. She moved her lips against mine, a tantalizing sensation that sent shivers down my spine. Lilac's eyes were fluttered closed, her lashes casting de

    Krimson's P.O.V "Goddammit…" I muttered, unable to help myself. "W-what's wrong—?" she began to ask, letting go of my finger as she started to look worried, but I cut her off by capturing her lips in yet another kiss. She didn't protest and melted into my mouth, into my touch. When we finally broke it off, we were both gasping. "I need you, Lilac." I panted, looking into her eyes. "God, I need to get inside you, Lilac. I don't think I can hold back anymore." "Do it," she said, her confidence shocking me yet again. "I need you inside me too." That did it. I got off the bed, unbuckling my pants in the process. Her eyes never left me as I pulled down my pants, along with my underwear and kicked them aside, exposing myself completely to her eyes. "Oh my…" she sighed, her eyes locked onto my shaft. She sat up on the edge of the bed and reached out to touch me, making shivers run up my spine. "You're huge…" She looked up into my eyes. I l

    Krimson's P.O.V The sound of my phone vibrating on the side table woke me up from my slumber. I opened my eyes with some difficulty, but when I felt the soft texture of Lilac's skin under my hands, I let out a sigh of relief. She was still here. She didn't leave. Her body was turned away from me while I spooned her from behind and no matter how much my fingers tingled to run them over the lush curves of her body, I held myself back, not wanting to wake her up. Lilac looked peaceful… Instead, I kissed her shoulders, and slowly got up from the bed, despite wanting to wrap my arms around her tightly because somewhere in the pit of my stomach, I could feel dread settle in. I knew it wasn't going to be easy, even after last night… she was going to regret the spur of the moment decision she made and we might be back to square one…but being able to hold her close for one more night…trying to apologize to her…it was a start.

    Lilac's P.O.V It's been a long ride and a very eventful one at that and anytime I think about what Krimson and I have been through, I'm just grateful we had the strength to go through everything we went through and we were able to come out of it even stronger than how we were before. As the sun cast its warm, golden rays across the university campus, I found myself sitting on a bench, the weight of decisions pressing against my chest. The soft whispers of the leaves rustling in the gentle breeze mirrored the conflicted thoughts swirling in my mind. Krimson, my mate, had offered a future tied to our pack, an enticing prospect for many, but not for me. I gazed at the sprawling grounds, feeling a tug in my heart that wasn't just about academic pursuits. The university held promises beyond the textbooks and lectures. It offered freedom—freedom to carve my own identity, to explore knowledge that extended far beyond the boundaries of our pack's traditions. I yearned to brea

    Krimson's P.O.V I woke up to the pale light filtering through the hospital room, the faint beeping of monitors sounding in the background. My vision was hazy at first, the events leading up to this moment a jumbled mess in my mind. As I blinked and slowly tried to focus, the first thing that became clear was Lilac's form, peacefully asleep in a chair next to my bed. Relief washed over me as memories flooded back, fragments piecing together into a coherent narrative. "Lilac," I whispered softly, my voice hoarse from disuse. She stirred slightly, a faint flutter of eyelashes against her cheeks, but she remained deep in slumber. The sight of her there, unwavering by my side, despite everything that had transpired, filled me with an inexplicable warmth. I couldn't help but recall the chaos of that night—the confrontation, the whirlwind of emotions, and then the blankness as consciousness slipped away from me. But here I was, waking up to her steadfast presence. It m

    Lilac's P.O.V I watched Silver hurl accusations at me, adding to my guilt. I wanted to explain, to make her understand that it wasn't intentional, that the circumstances had shifted beyond my control. But words seemed to desert me in that moment as I grappled with the weight of her accusation. However, Krimson's voice echoed in the room then, commanding even though weak. "Silver, it's not Lilac's fault," he said firmly, his voice carrying the weight of authority. "I made the decision. I took action to protect." Silver's gaze snapped toward Krimson, her eyes filled with disbelief. "What are you saying, Krimson? You hated her, didn't you? Then why would you risk your life to save her?" Krimson shook his head solemnly. "No, Silver. I never hated Lilac, it was our circumstances that I hated. It felt like the Goddess had played a cruel joke on me. But I couldn't run away from a bond fated by the goddess herself, Silver. I had caused Lilac enough pain as it is…I

"Silver…" I called out to her slowly, making her head snap in my direction. "Please…you need to stop all of this." But Silver's face twisted in a sinister smirk. "It's too late to stop any of this, Lilac. This ends with one of us." "It doesn't have to be that way, Silvia." I shook my head, pleading with her. From the corner of my eyes, I saw Del approaching her steadily from behind her, while I kept on engaging her in conversion. "It does, Lilac." Silver snapped at me, turning her body around so she was facing me completely. "You don't understand-" It was all Del needed, for her to turn away, so that our plan worked. Without wasting a second, he came up behind Silver and wrapped his arms around her body, holding her in place as he took her by surprise

    Lilac's P.O.V For a moment, time seemed suspended, the tableau frozen in an eerie stillness. Silver hesitated, her gaze flickering between me and Krimson, the dagger held poised in the air, its lethal purpose momentarily forgotten in the face of Krimson's interruption. "Step away from her, Silver," Krimson's voice cut through the tension, unwavering and authoritative. His stance was firm, commanding obedience without question. The grip of Silver's magic lessened, the pressure easing just enough for me to draw a ragged breath. My muscles protested as I struggled against the binds anew, though I didn't dare to take my eyes off Silver, her expression a maelstrom of conflicting emotions - anger, desperation, and a hint of something I couldn't quite place. "Krimson, you shouldn't be here," Silver's voice wavered, a tremor betraying the turmoil within her. Her grip on the dagger faltered, uncertainty clouding her features. "You know I couldn't stand by and

    Lilac's P.O.V The air was thick with tension, a palpable energy that crackled around us like a storm waiting to break. "Silver, you're fooling yourself if you think you can wield that kind of power," I said softly, my gaze fixed on the gleaming knife in her hands. "You're not a true Silver Alpha Breeder, you never will be. You can't ever access my full potential." Silver's laughter cut through the serene air, a sound that held a hint of something darker beneath its surface. "Oh, you have no idea, do you?" Her eyes glinted with an intensity that sent a shiver down my spine. "You underestimate what a witch can do, what I can do. I'm part wolf, part witch. I'm a hybrid that is already stronger than both a wolf and a witch! There's nothing I cannot do, Lilac!" "You think I chose you to lead our pack because of some noble sentiment? No, Lilac." Her voice was cold, devoid of any warmth. "I chose you because I knew the stronger you became, the more that dormant p

    Lilac's P.O.V My eyes brimmed with confusion and hurt as I confronted Silver in the dimly lit room I was being held captive in. "Did you…ever really consider me a friend, Silver?" my voice trembled with a mixture of fear and desperation, my heart aching with the weight of betrayal. Silver, her gaze heavy with sorrow and a haunted past, met my eyes. "I used to belong to a peaceful pack, a pack that had been my home since the day I was born," she began, her voice tinged with a raw emotion that spoke volumes of her pain. "We lived in harmony, in unity. It was everything to me." Tears welled up in Silver's eyes, reflecting the agony of memories etched deep within her soul. "Your father," she whispered, the words heavy with anguish. "He... he attacked our pack. In the dead of night, when darkness cloaked the land, he led a brutal assault." I felt my heart ache for the woman that I had once considered my biggest alley, but now, she had turned out to be my bigges

Del and I were on a mission—racing against time to reach Silver's apartment. It was imperative that we find Lilac before anything sinister unfolded. "Alpha Krimson, step on it!" Del's voice cut through the adrenaline-charged air, urgency lacing every word. His grip tightened on the door handle as we swerved through the dimly lit alleys, the neon signs blurring into streaks of color. "I'm pushing it as hard as I can!" I shouted back, my eyes fixed on the road ahead. The weight of worry pressed on me like a leaden cloak. We had to reach Silver's place, and had to find Lilac safe and sound. Finally, screeching to a halt outside Silver's building, we leaped out of the car. Breathless and tense, we dashed up the stairs, each step echoing the pounding of our hearts. As we reached Silver's door, our hopes soared, but a hollow silence gre

    Lilac's P.O.V As I slowly arose to consciousness, I found myself grappling with the weight of my heavy eyelids. My mind sluggishly pieced together the fragments of reality, pushing through a dense fog of disorientation. The air felt heavy, each inhale a laborious effort that failed to fill my lungs as it should. A peculiar lightheadedness swept over me, a disconcerting sensation akin to floating on the edge of a dream. My initial attempt to stretch my arms, to move, met an unexpected resistance. Panic flickered through my drowsy mind as the realization hit home—I was restrained. My fingertips brushed against something coarse and unyielding, confirming my fear. The sensation sent a jolt of adrenaline through my groggy state, clearing the haze momentarily. I tried to rise, only to discover the cruel truth of my predicament: bound, not just by ropes or chains, but tied firmly to what appeared to be a marble table. The cool surface pressed against my skin, a s
