*Zander*

"Alpha, I have called the urgent meeting at the last minute because it was necessary," Maddox informed me as I listened to him while reading the reports.

"Hmm! Did everyone gather?" I asked, closing the file and standing up as we headed toward the conference room.

"Yes, Alpha," he replied.

As Maddox said, alphas from different packs of the north had gathered. I threw an intent glance at everyone and found eager eyes watching me with curiosity.

"As you all know," I started addressing the room, "we have gathered here to discuss the issue of rogues. The problem is escalating, and these rogues are growing stronger with each passing day. We need to find a solution because, according to the latest intelligence, they have amassed a formidable army."

The alphas nodded in agreement, their expressions grim with the weight of the situation. I could sense the tension in the air as we contemplated the threat posed by the rogue forces.

    *Zander*As I was about to leave, Maddox came by my side."Alpha, we have a message," Maddox informed me, his voice carrying a sense of urgency. I nodded, and he showed me a video message on his phone. The screen displayed the rogue king, a cowardly figure hidden behind a mask, his voice dripping with malice as he delivered his demands. He taunted me, informing me that he had my son and wanted to see me. I handed the phone back to Maddox and turned my gaze towards the vast expanse of the clear sky above. But ominous signs loomed on the horizon, as dark clouds began to gather, threatening to obscure the sun's rays."Let's prepare to fulfill the wishes of the rogue king and go to meet him," I declared, my voice resonating with determination."What?" Avery gasped, her surprise evident in her voice. "Are you really going to meet him?" Her tone shifted suddenly, filled with worry. I offered her a calm smile."Yes," I replied, meeting her gaze steadily. "He has my son, so I have no choice b

    *Zander*Avery averted her eyes, but it wouldn't lessen the sins she had committed. Elijah had killed my father, and he would pay for his deed, but Avery... I never thought she would betray me. She was my best friend, someone I had known since childhood. I had always counted on her for everything; I even used to discuss every problem with her. But what did I get in return? Betrayal."Why, Avery?!" I bit out, the hurt and anger evident in my voice. "I thought you were my best friend. I trusted you more than anyone else. I believed everything you said. So why did you betray me like this?" I yelled, my voice echoing with pain and disbelief."Zander... I am... sorry," she murmured, her voice barely audible as she bowed her head in shame. But her apology did little to quell my anger; I couldn't bring myself to believe that she truly regretted her actions."How could your sorry bring back the people I've lost because of your sins? You have committed sins, not crimes, and for sins, there is

    *Selena*"Sir Nicholas, I have an urgent need for information regarding Damon," I stated, my voice betraying the urgency of my request. Time was of the essence, and I could ill afford any delays.Nicholas regarded me with a knowing look, his lips curling into a mysterious smile. "Of course, my dear. I am more than willing to assist you," he said, his tone laden with intrigue."Follow me," he commanded, gesturing for me to accompany him. "Where?" I asked, furrowing my brow in confusion."To a place where you can find all the answers to your questions," he replied cryptically, leading the way. I followed him through a long, dimly lit corridor adorned with ancient hand-painted portraits hanging on the walls.We entered a dimly lit room located three layers down in the basement, and the atmosphere felt unsettling. I could sense something off in the air. While vampires typically exuded a dark aura, this energy was different. As I stepped further into the room, the door closed behind me au

    *Selena*My eyes widened with surprise as the figure showed up; Grotesque and menacing.How was it possible? No one had seen him in the shifter’s realm. He never left his dark realm. So why was he here?“Demon King? What are you doing here?” I gasped with shock. Arena was still in pain. The healing was not happening because of the wolfbane.“I was right about it and was lucky enough to encounter a golden wolf,” the demon king said as his eyes glowed with excitement. “It happened in centuries,” The Demon King drawled.“So you are with Nicholas and planned to catch me. But you won't get what you want, and I will make sure of it,” Arena growled lowly."Precious golden wolf, right now you have to worry about your situation," he snickered."It's a misconception that you can make me helpless. I am still powerful without my magical power," Arena howled loudly, but her breath was heavy as she fought against the poisoning effect of the wolfbane."I can't wait to see this," Demon King laughed.

    *Selena*"Selena!" Damon's voice sliced through the tense air as he hurried over to me. His eyes swept over me, filled with concern, as he reached out to touch my shoulder, checking for injuries."I'm furious with you right now," he muttered, his grip tight with worry. "But I'm relieved you're safe. These wounds will heal, but I won't forgive those who did this to you." His gaze turned deadly as he glared at the demon king and Nicholas.Damon closed his eyes briefly, muttering something under his breath. Suddenly, he summoned a golden trident, causing both Nicholas and the demon king to gasp in fear."Wait, that's… that's the warlock king, Zephyr's trident," the demon king stammered, his eyes wide with shock. "How did you get this?"I stared at Damon in shock. But he seemed unfazed as his smirk was smug and confident. "Now you're scared, huh, demon king?" Damon sneered.The demon king shook his head, his gaze fixed on Damon. "Alpha Alexander will come for his mate," he announced, hi

    *Selena*Zander stood there, flanked by his beta, Maddox, and gamma, Ethan. His aura exuded intimidation, demanding submission from those around him. Despite the urge to run and jump into his arms, I resisted. He still held that effect on me. But then he dropped the bombshell: he claimed that Damon and my mate bond was fake. How could he say such a thing? I knew what I felt, and the undeniable pull of the mate bond between Damon and me confirmed its authenticity."What are you saying, Zander?" I retorted, my voice laced with confusion. "I can feel the bond too. How can you claim that Damon is faking it?""Because it's true. Avery revealed it before she died," he declared solemnly."What? Avery has died?" I gasped, my heart sinking. "H...how? What happened to her?""It's a long story, Selena, and I'll explain everything. But now is not the time. You need to leave from here," he demanded, his tone firm."So you're trusting Avery over me?!" I countered defensively, incredulous that he wo

"See, you made our mate run!" he accused me, his voice laced with anger and frustration."She is not your mate," I snapped back, my own emotions boiling beneath the surface. "And you made her upset and run, you asshole."Damon's eyes flared with fury, and he took a menacing step forward. "Don't dare to disrespect me in my kingdom and my palace and think you can get away alive," he threatened, his voice low and dangerous. But I didn't flinch at his words. I damn care about his threat. "You think you can threaten the Alpha king?!" I challenged, my voice rising with authority. "Your territory or mine, it doesn't matter because I only need my two bare hands to rip your head apart from your body, and you'll be dead," I declared boldly, Lyon surfacing and trying to take over me to show him who the true alpha was. “You want to see who is the king!” Damon roared, baring his teeth and picking u

    *Zander*“My alpha, this seems to be just an altar and nothing special about it. Are you sure we could get some links about it from the past and that it’s worth our time?” Maddox asked.I understood his curiosity and confusion because what I could feel was beyond what he could see. I knew I felt a connection with this altar as if every stone on its wall wanted to tell me something.“Yes, Maddox, I am very sure. I need to know what other secrets it’s hiding,” I admitted, affirming my resolve.“Okay, my alpha, let’s leave this place. I will send a sample and information about it to our research team. I’m certain they will uncover everything about it,” Maddox assured.“No, I won’t leave without Selena, Maddox. My instincts are telling me that something is about to happen and she isn’t safe here,” I declared, the restlessness still lingering in my chest.“But she is the true descendant of the moon goddess, and no one can harm her,” Maddox said, looking at me as if I had lost my mind. “She

    Austin was burning with a fever! Knowing my baby boy was in pain, I couldn't stay there any longer. Before Zander could say anything, I dashed toward Austin's room. As soon as I opened the door, his desperate cries echoed through the air."Mom! Mom!"Anne and Blair were sitting beside him, trying to comfort him, but their efforts were in vain. Anne gently caressed his forehead, but he angrily shrugged her hand away.“No! I want my mom!” he wailed.My eyes stung with tears, and all my resolve shattered seeing him in such a condition, needing me more than ever. I couldn’t stop myself. Nothing and no one could hold me back now.“Yes, sweetie,” I whispered, my lips trembling as I rushed to his side. Blair got up from the bed, giving me space to sit beside my son.“Mom is here,” I assured him, placing my hand on his head. Leaning, I kissed his forehead, silently praying in my heart. The moment I touched him, I broke into tears, feeling the intense heat radiating from his tiny body—my baby

    My heart pounded so loudly in my chest as I recalled my vision of Zander as the Dark Alpha.Oh, Moon Goddess, why this confusion? Why was I being tested so relentlessly by life? I closed my eyes, trying to focus, hoping to summon another vision—something, anything—that could offer clarity. But nothing came. Was it something that happened on its own? Could I not control it?Oh Goddess! How much more did I have to learn about this new identity, this new life? And yet, here I was, burdened with a mountain of problems to face all at once. What was I supposed to do?I rubbed my head in frustration just as the study door was yanked open, and Zander’s commanding presence filled the room.“What are you doing here, mate?” His deep, threatening voice sent a shiver down my spine as his piercing eyes locked on mine, each step he took toward me brimming with raw dominance."I came here to learn more about your pack, Alpha," I replied softly, breaking eye contact and looking away so he wouldn’t see

    I watched as a male omega handed Zander a T-shirt. He nodded in appreciation and walked off with Maddox, who had also finished his session for the day. Blair turned to me with a mischievous smile, her eyes glinting with playful intent."So, how was it?" she teased, winking at me knowingly."What? Your alpha brother is a good trainer, you know," I said, trying to dodge her question, feeling the heat rise to my cheeks."Oh, yeah?!" she laughed. "Tell me something about it!" Her grin widened as she shrugged nonchalantly, clearly enjoying my flustered state.Before I could muster a reply, Anne's voice cut through the moment like a sharp blade. "Selena, how shameless you are!"Startled, I turned to find her standing behind me, her face contorted with fury."What's wrong, Anne?" I asked with genuine concern, though her anger made me uneasy."What's wrong?" she spat, her scowl deepening. "What's wrong?! Huh?" Her teeth clenched as she stepped closer. "You snatched my fiancé, and now he's can

    I swear I saw the possessiveness swirling in his blue orbs as he stepped closer.“As you wish, mate,” Zander's voice turned husky, his possessive eyes raking over me as he grabbed my wrist and led me to the training area.By now, everyone had gathered around the practice area where their alpha was going to train me. Meeting his eyes with confidence, I grabbed the hem of my white top and was about to pull it over my head when he grabbed my hand.“Don’t!” he ordered sharply. “You can practise in these clothes.”I smirked. Two could play this game, Alpha.He didn’t bother covering himself in front of the hungry eyes of the she-wolves, yet he wanted me to stay modest. Such a hypocrite.“But my clothes will get muddy,” I pouted, letting my voice drop just enough to hint at the mischief dancing in my mind.“They won’t,” Zander replied curtly, his gaze narrowing. “I’ll be careful.”Oh, my Alpha—pretending not to care but still caring. It was adorable, really.“So,” I murmured, tilting my hea

    Zander finished training with the male warriors, and now it was time for the female warriors to begin their session. The female warrior trainer stepped forward as Zander walked out of the wrestling ground, accepting a towel handed to him by one of the male omegas on duty at the training grounds to attend to the Alpha and other officers.In the far corner, Maddox was practicing in another training area, and I couldn’t help but notice Blair’s eyes fixed on him.Watching Blair and Maddox’s love story unfold right before me was so sweet; it felt like witnessing a romantic tale come to life.But my happy moment disturbed when I heard the voice of one of the female warriors.“Alpha, can we not have the honor of your training as well? Or is your perfection reserved only for the male warriors?”My eyes darted from the female warrior to Zander, whose expression was unreadable and stern.“Of course, I will train you. For an Alpha, all his warriors are equal,” Zander declared firmly.His words b

    *Selena*I thought he would jump at the opportunity after hearing my proposition, but what happened was the exact opposite of my expectations.“You’ll get your laptop today,” he said in a dismissive tone, and I was left utterly shocked.“Are you sure you don’t want anything in return?” I asked, my voice dropping to a teasing whisper as I observed him intently. But he didn’t even glance in my direction.“I’ve had a long day. I want to rest,” he said, his tone detached, leaving my jaw practically on the floor.My mate—Alpha King Zander Blake—refused the kiss. Refused me. He didn't know but I might have been willing to offer more than just a kiss if he had pressed.What was that? Did he hit his head somewhere, or was something seriously wrong with him?Seeing that his mood wasn’t good, I quietly followed him to the room. Without a word, he entered the bathroom, leaving me alone. I stared at the closed bathroom door for a few moments before walking over to the cupboard, selecting his clot

    I stood before my pack house, my legs threatening to give out beneath me as my heart and mind waged war against each other.‘Come on, Zander. Do you really think Selena is behind those deaths?’ Lyon growled in frustration. ‘I’m not ready to believe she could do something like that.’I let out a long sigh, a wave of defeat washing over me. I didn’t want to believe it either. But as a ruler, I couldn’t ignore the facts—and the facts were pointing in a direction I couldn't refuse to accept.Taking a deep, steadying breath, I pushed open the doors and entered the pack house. The sight that greeted me eased a fraction of the weight on my chest.Austin’s cheerful laughter filled the room as he sat cross-legged on the floor, his tiny hands gripping crayons. Anne knelt beside him, patiently helping him with his kindergarten coloring assignment. Seeing my son happy melted away some of the stress that had been clawing at me, even if only for a moment."Zander," Anne greeted me with a warm smile

    *Zander*I received a mind link from the border security team, alerting me that something was wrong. Without wasting a second, I rushed to the headquarters. The air was thick with tension as I entered, and the grim faces of my team only deepened my unease.“Report,” I commanded, my voice sharp as I approached Freya, who stood examining the scene on the monitors.Freya’s expression was grim. “Alpha, we found several people dead in the peripheral regions. Their bodies were discovered in strange and unnatural conditions.”“What do you mean by unnatural?” I demanded, my brows furrowing.“It’s unlike anything we’ve seen before,” she admitted hesitantly. “At first glance, it resembles a plague, but we haven’t been able to identify the cause or source. The tests are inconclusive.”I clenched my fists, anger boiling beneath the surface. “I didn’t appoint the best team to hear vague explanations, Freya,” I growled, my voice carrying the weight of my frustration. “You’re the best in your fields

She ascended to Asgard, the celestial realm where the gods and goddesses convened, their thrones casting an ethereal glow over the star-studded expanse.The chamber was a grand spectacle, with a sky-like dome swirling with constellations, the air shimmering with divine energy. Seated on their ornate thrones were the gods of the realms.Kaelvor’s deep voice echoed through the hall as his piercing gaze fell upon the High Priestess. “Why did you send Selena back?
