ALPHA KING EDEN

The dungeon was cold and damp, the air thick with the smell of mold and the faint metallic tang of blood.

The flickering torchlight cast long shadows on the rough stone walls as I and Aldo descended the winding staircase.

My expression was hard, my eyes sharp with purpose. Aldo, though still limping slightly from his own recent ordeal, walked beside me, the betrayal we had uncovered weighing heavily on both our minds.

As we reached the bottom, my gaze fell upon the woman who had served in the palace for so many years, now reduced to a bloodied and bruised figure chained to the wall.

The guards had done as I’d ordered, and Gloria was barely recognizable, her face swollen from the beatings.

But despite the pain etched into her features, there was no remorse in her eyes. Instead, she looked up at me with a chilling calm, a twisted satisfaction lurking beneath the surface.

I stepped closer, my presence imposing as I stood over her. Aldo remained a step behind, his own fa

I needed this; time to relax, to breathe, and to forget the recent turmoil that had clouded my life. As I sat on the grassy bank, I felt a sense of contentment I hadn’t experienced in weeks. I leaned back, allowing myself to absorb the serenity of the moment.But just as I began to drift into the calm, a familiar voice called out to me from the path leading to the lake.I turned to see Aaron approaching, a warm smile on his face. “ Sara, I’ve got something special to show you.” he greeted, a hint of excitement in his voice.Curiosity pique

    SARAAs I heard his footsteps fading away, after telling him it was over between us. I stood frozen for a moment, my hand resting against the door where he had just been.The weight of my words settled in my chest like a stone, heavy and unyielding. I had meant what I said, but I didn’t make it any easier to bear.I moved slowly away from the door, my steps unsteady as I crossed the room and sank onto the edge of the bed.The silence around me was deafening, a stark contrast to the storm of emotions raging inside me. I buried my face in my hands, my heart aching with a pain so deep it felt like it might never heal.How did it come to this? I wondered, my thoughts racing. I had always believed that Eden saw me as his equal, that he trusted me as much as I trusted him. But his actions had shattered that belief.He had kept me in the dark, made decisions that affected both of us without so much as a word. It was as if he didn’t trust me… didn’t see me strong enough to stand by his side

I am grateful for her kindness.As I approached the door, I noticed a basket of peonies; my favorite flower, delicately arranged and waiting for me.A soft smile tugged at my lips as I bent down to pick it up, wondering who could have left such a thoughtful gift.Once inside, I closed the door behind me and brought the basket to the table. The soft, sweet scent of the peonies filled the room as I leaned in to inhale their fragrance, the petals brushing against my cheek.The simple beauty of the flowers made me smile, a rare moment of peace and joy easing into my heart.But then, something caught my eye. Nestled among the blooms was a folded letter.

    ALPHA KING EDENThe kiss between Sara and I deepened, fueled by the intense emotions that had been building between us during our time apart.The warmth of my lips against hers, the way I cradled her so protectively, unleashed a flood of longing she could no longer contain. She moaned softly into my mouth.Hearing her moan, I felt a primal surge of desire course through me. I had missed everything about her; the taste of her lips, the feel of her body against mine, the way she responded to my touch.Driven by that longing, my kisses became more urgent, more demanding, as I let my hands roam over her curves, reacquainting myself with every inch of her.With a low growl, I gently laid her back onto the bed, my body pressing down against hers as my lips traveled down her neck, sucking lightly at the sensitive skin there.She arched beneath me, her breath hitching as I spread her legs apart, the need between us palpable.My eyes darkened with desire as I looked down at her, and without

I stood beside Eden, his expression was a mask of authority and determination, while my hand tightened around his, my instincts screaming that something was amiss.Gloria was brought to the platform, her hands bound and her fate sealed.

My grip on him tightened, my mind reeling from the revelation.The thought of losing my child was unbearable, and yet, the thought of the child being the one to bring about the end of all werewolves was just as terrifying.Fisher’s eyes narrowed as he considered his words. “The future is never set in stone, Alpha, But if the moon goddess has shown you this vision, then it is a warning; a path that might be taken.“We must tread carefully, for the choices you make now will determine which path your child will walk.” he said softly.Eden nodded, his face grim. “I’ll do whatever it takes to protect my family… and our kind. Even if it means my life.” I shook my head vehemently, tears filling my eyes. “No… there has to be another way. We’ll find it together. I won’t lose you or this child.”Fisher placed a comforting hand on my shoulder. “There may be other ways, but they will not be easy. We will n

I stood in the center, my gaze steady as I watched Fisher prepare the ritual.I had sent Aldo a message to Fisher for this ritual, as it was the only way to save my daughter and the pack from the prophecy. Aldo protested but I told him I had made up my mind.The chronos amulet that had been in Fisher’s possession after using it to remove Sara’s curse was my only option.The chronos amulet, an ancient relic known for its power to alter fate, lay on a small pedestal before us. Its gemstone pulsed faintly, as if alive, resonating with the power it held.Fisher’s eyes clouded by age yet sharp with wisdom, turned to me. “Are you certain about this, Alpha? The consequences could be grave.“The prophecy is not something to be taken lightly. This could cost you your life.” he asked, his voice gravelly, echoing with years of knowledge and forewarning.My jaw tig

He had arrived in the early hours of the morning.His elderly figure draped in a layer of ceremonial robes, stood in the throne room. His eyes, clouded with the wisdom of countless years.He spoke softly, yet his words carried the weight of ages, echoing through the room like a quiet, unbreakable command.“Alpha, your daughter’s powers are unlike any we have seen in generations. They align with the prophecy of the old, a prophecy that foretells the rise of a child born to end the era of wolves.“Her abilities are growing, and without proper guidance, they will become uncontrollable. He said, his voice as steady as stone.I tensed, my jaw clenching as I listened. I had feared these words, yet hearing them aloud made my blood run cold.

Our hearts beat in sync, a silent reminder of our bond.Just then, a sharp knock sounded at the door. Eden sighed, reluctance weighing on him as he pulled away from my embrace.He walked over to the door, his posture stiffening as he opened the door and found Aldo standing there, his face pale and etched with worry.“Alpha, It’s… it’s about Elena.

Her breathing became slow and even, and she drifted into sleep, cradled in my embrace.I remained still, staring out into the darkness beyond the windows of my study, my thoughts racing even as my heart beat steadily.I looked down at Sara, her face peaceful in sleep despite the tear stains on her cheeks. I brushed a strand of hair away from her face, pressing a gentle kiss to her forehead.At that moment, I made a silent vow. Whatever it took, I would protect my family.

My eyes locked onto his, a silent understanding passing between us.The heat in his gaze mirrored mine, and without a word, we both began to strip away the barriers that had kept us apart for so long.The air was thick with anticipation as we hurriedly undressed, clothes discarded carelessly onto the floor.Months of pent-up frustration, longing, and unspoken words fueled our actions, our movements almost frantic, desperate to reconnect in the most intimate way possible.As soon as the last piece of clothing fell away, Eden moved over me, capturing my lips in a passionate kiss that spoke of all the nights we had spent alone, yearning for each other’s touch.Our bodies met in a hungry embrace, skin ag
