ZARA POV"Jeremy, please stop! You're hurting me!" I yelled, my voice barely audible over the sound of my own ragged breathing.His grip tightened, and I winced in pain. "You need to be quiet," he hissed, his voice low and menacing. "If you don't, you won't have to worry about seeing your father anymore. You'll be dead.”The fear that gripped my heart was almost unbearable. I knew he meant what he said. He was capable of anything. I tried to calm my breathing, to still my trembling body. But the more I struggled, the tighter his grip became.We were so far from Hero that he couldn't hear us, but I still yelled and fought back. I punched Jeremy hard on the back, again and again, but it didn't bother him at all. He didn't even flinch."Enough!" he sighed, his voice laced with exasperation. "Hero was absolutely right about you. You're so stubborn, it's unbelievable. You'd rather die out here than see your own father? If you've inherited Daddy's stubborn streak, please, do me a favour and

ZARA POVJeremy pressed his body low to the ground, inching closer to the edge of the woods. I followed closely behind, my smaller size allowing me to move with ease through the undergrowth. We were nearing the parking lot, where their vehicles were parked.The parked cars were a sad sight. They sat up on blocks, their tires missing, exposed to the elements. Someone was scavenging through them, their movements quick and desperate. At the end of the line, a lone figure stood guard, a wolf among the wreckage. A lookout, no doubt. Luckily, the wind was blowing in our favour, carrying the sound of our approach away from the scavengers.Hell no, the rogues had found the vehicles. It thankfully looked like Jeremy would not be driving me to my father. Hopefully Hero hadn't left anything behind that says: Hey, I'm the Alpha king, and I'm going to camp out here in the forbidden mountain for some unknown reason. Hope you guys don't mind me staying for a while?The radio beeped, and one of the r

HEROI didn't panic easily but my heart was pounding so hard right now. Kristina and I immediately swirled our head around. "Something's definitely wrong," I blurted out, as we both glanced back when the wind changed direction. A strange smell caught our attention, making my stomach churn.Wolves. Several of them where coming our way. Instantly, I began to shift, and nobody hesitated as they all shifted too.We swiftly formed a protective barrier around Tabitha, our weakest member, and growled into the thicket of the woods.The attacks came without warning. Seven wolves crept out through the bush, two aiming at me. I considered letting my power out, but it was damn too soon. I just didn't need the whole creatures of the woods to discover my status, so I pulled it in and focused on my strength instead.These wolves didn't seem to have any training at all, but they worked so well together, and they fought raw and wild. Claws ripped into my shoulder, making me groan but I ignored the pa

ZARA POVWe crept silently up the dark, moon mountain, our group surrounding me like a pack of wolves circling their prey. Even the small wolf, who had always been quiet, regarded me with a sidelong glance, her silence more intimidating than any words. I felt like a prisoner, guilty of a terrible crime, though I knew not of what.I knew that Hero wouldn't stoop so low as to put a chain around my neck. Yet, I couldn't deny the recklessness of my actions. No one forced me into this situation. I could have chosen a different path, a safer one. But here I was, entangled with the very man I thought would be my savior, my ticket to a better life.I knew that if I needed to stay with him, I needed to obey him. It was my best bet for now. The safest bet, since it meant I would have more time to plan my escape before he tried to haul me back to my father. The very idea of returning to him sent a shiver down my spine. I couldn't bear the thought of being under his control again, trapped in his

ZARA POVThe icy night air nipped at my exposed skin, jolting me awake. An unexpected shiver ran through me as I pulled my arms tighter around myself, my teeth chattering uncontrollably. A faint rustling sound from the cage caught my attention, and I slowly turned around. To my surprise, I was alone, except for Katrina, the other female in the group. She was staring at me intently, her gaze fixed on my face. I couldn't help but feel a sense of unease creeping over me.“Zara, the woman who'd been nothing more than a fleeting encounter, a one-night stand Hero despises so much.” she uttered and a wave of shame washed over me, a crimson tide staining my cheeks at her statement.She grinned, a mischievous glint in her eyes. "You've got a real knack for taking a joke," she remarked, her tone light and playful. "That's a huge weight off my shoulders.”“I appreciate your sense of humor, but I’d prefer if we kept our conversation focused. I’m not sure jokes would be appropriate in this situati

HERO POV"Humans?" I echoed, my gaze fixed on Kristina. "You think people are actually living in the heart of a Brute rogue mountain?""Yes, we believe so!" Zara snapped beside her. "And since I was the one who smelled them, I don't think you should be directing your questions at her. I realize it's a bit odd, but they're not wolves. They smell... different, I guess. I don't spend a lot of time around humans, so I'm not the best judge of normal."Growling, I spun around and glared at her. She didn't flinch. "And you thought it was the smartest thing to do? You thought tracking that smell on your own was the best decision?"“Yes, Hero. I thought it might be prudent to see why I was having such strange smell. I mean, you don't want to tell me why you are here in an unknown environment searching for… what on earth are you even searching for?” She questioned. Jeremy, sensing the tension in the air, let out a low growl from his spot beside her.But we had discussed it that they stopped ca

ZARA POVHero's face wasn't the only one frozen in shock. We all stood there, our mouths agape, our eyes wide with surprise. The tension in the air was palpable, and my inner wolf stirred, eager to react. But I held her back, reminding myself that we didn't need to resort to violence just yet... I was about to say something, ask questions that wouldn't stop dangling in my head."H—" I began, but the petite blonde woman raised an eyebrow, cutting me off. "Obviously, the witches here knew you were coming," she said, her tone matter-of-fact. "They have names, but they couldn't see why you were here. They just knew you needed a little guidance. You all can shift into your wolf form if that makes you feel safer around us.”Hero shook his head, a wry smile playing on his lips. "You have seers among you? I've heard tales of such gifted individuals, but I've never had the privilege of meeting one.”"I suspect that you will be meeting this one, but not today and perhaps not on this particular

ZARA POV"I don't care what went down out here," Olga grumbled, his eyes narrowing. "But my rules are simple: don't touch a single thing or break a single thing. My work is fragile, understand?”.” Olga pointed grumpily.The wolf healers I knew were known for their gentle touch, their soothing words, and their calming presence. They worked with a delicate precision, their hands moving with a quiet grace. But Olga was different. There was nothing gentle about him. His gruff voice and heavy footsteps echoed through the room as he stormed back inside, leaving us to wonder what had upset him so.Jason winked at me before speaking. "He's a big teddy bear deep down," he assured me. "You'll be fine. Just don't take anything he says too seriously." He paused for a moment, then asked, "Do you think you can find your way back on your own, or would you rather I stick around and wait?”"We don't need a bodyguard," Hero said, his voice sharp. But Jason, with a stubborn glint in his eyes, continued

ALPHA KING GRANTThe big wooden doors of the pack house creaked as I pushed them open. Another trip, another empty feeling. I sighed, a long, heavy sound that seemed to fill the quiet hallway. Since I was fifteen, I've been searching. Fifteen! That's a long, long time. I'm the Alpha King, which means I'm in charge of all the werewolf packs. I got this job really young, and now, well, I'm almost a hundred years old. And still, no mate.Everyone around me has found their special someone. My friends, my warriors, even the cooks in the kitchen! They all have their mates, and it makes me feel... lonely. Really lonely. When I turned fifteen, I took a whole year off. A year! I traveled all over the world, visiting every pack I could find. I was so excited. I imagined finding her, my mate. I wanted to give her everything, make her happy, love her with all my heart. I wanted to spend time with her, not just work all the time.But I didn't find her. Not that year. I told myself, "Maybe she's to

ADRIANA POVThe heavy oak door groaned, resisting the frantic assault of Harold’s shoulder. Finally, it splintered inward, a testament to his desperate strength. He stumbled into the room, the air thick with the stench of metallic blood. His gaze, wild and searching, fell upon his brother, sprawled lifeless on the blood-soaked rug.A strangled cry escaped Harold’s lips. He staggered towards the body, his knees buckling beneath him. "No... no!" he choked, his voice raw with grief. "Henry,"Trisha, her face pale and drawn, followed close behind. She gasped, her eyes widening at the gruesome scene. "Oh Goodness," she whispered, her voice trembling. "What… what happened?"Harold, his hands trembling violently, reached out to touch his brother's cold, lifeless cheek. "Henry," he moaned, the word a guttural sob. "Who did this?”He slowly looked up at me, his eyes blazed with fury. The world seemed to tilt. Then, a burning pain exploded across my cheek when he slapped me. I recoiled, dizzy a

This is the story of Alpha prince Grant and how he found his mate. THE ALPHA'S REJECTED MUTE MATECHAPTER 1ADRIANA POVAfter making breakfast for the Luna of the Diamond Pack this morning, I headed back to my room. A big smile spread across my face as I glanced at the calendar hanging on the wall of the room given to me at the pack house. Each ticked-off day on the April calendar brought me closer to my special day. Today was finally the 28th of April, my eighteenth birthday! I couldn't contain my excitement.Turning eighteen for most wolves is a big deal. It's when we usually shift into our wolf forms for the first time and meet our inner wolves. I'm even more excited than most, because I've been Mute since I was born. I had been like this since I was a baby, wrapped in the arms of my dead mother. She had been killed by a pack of lone wolves. Lone wolf...A lone wolf is a wolf that lives and hunts alone, outside of a pack, they don't belong to any Pack. This can happen for various

ZARA POVGrant finished his meal, a happy little mess of baby food smeared around his mouth. Hero, with a gentle smile, lifted him into his arms. "Okay, little man," Hero said, his voice soft, "tell Daddy all about your day."Grant, in response, let out a series of excited baby noises, a mix of gurgles and happy babbling. He waved his tiny hands, as if trying to tell a grand story that only he understood. Hero chuckled, bouncing him lightly up and down. Grant's laughter filled the room, a sweet, pure sound that made my heart melt.I couldn't help but smile. It was like watching magic happen. Before, Hero had been so unsure, so worried about being a father. But now, seeing them together, it was clear he was a natural. Grant absolutely adored him. His eyes lit up whenever Hero was near, and Hero, in return, spent every free moment with his son.Every time I saw them together, Hero had this big, open smile. It was like he'd found something he never knew he was missing. It was a smile tha
The Alpha's Hostage Pregnant Bride EPILOGUE ONE
ZARA POVONE YEAR LATERThe bright summer sun streamed through the window, making the dust motes dance in the air. A warm breeze carried the scent of freshly cut grass, and the sound of birds chirping filled the garden. Inside, the living room was a cheerful chaos of baby toys and soft blankets.Kristina was sitting on the plush sofa, her eyes wide and sparkling as she cradled Grant in her arms. He was almost a year old now, a chubby little bundle of joy with big, curious eyes. He gurgled happily, reaching out tiny hands to tug at Kristina's bright pink shirt."Oh, he's just the sweetest thing!" Kristina sighed, her voice full of pure adoration. "Look at those eyes! And his little hands! He's absolutely perfect."I smiled, leaning against the doorway. "He is, isn't he? He gets those eyes from Hero.""And that hair! Just like Hero's too," Kristina added, gently stroking Grant's soft, dark curls. "He's a mini-Hero. You're so lucky, Zara. I swear, if I wasn't your best friend right now,

HERO POV"Hero..." Zara's voice, usually so strong, trembled. She clutched her stomach, her face paling. "Hero, I... I think my water broke."My breath hitched. "What? Are you sure?"Her eyes, wide and filled with a raw, primal fear, locked onto mine. "Yes! I'm sure! Oh, it hurts, Hero. It hurts so much!"She swayed, her legs buckling beneath her. I reacted instantly, leaping forward and catching her before she could fall. "Zara! Hold on, hold on.”"Oh, it's coming, Hero. It's really coming!" she gasped, her voice thick with pain. "It's… it’s like a fire inside.""Jeremy! Guys! We need help!" I yelled, my voice cracking with urgency. "Now!"Instead of the swift, coordinated response I expected, they walked towards us. A wave of cheers erupted, and my eyes widened in disbelief. Jeremy and the others stood there, beaming, holding bottles of sparkling wine and brightly colored balloons. "Congratulations, Hero! Congratulations, Zara!”They started clapping, oblivious to the chaos unfoldin

HERO POVMy hands were shaking. I mean, really shaking. I tried to smooth down my shirt, but it didn't help. I was standing right in front of the place. We had put up lights, flowers, everything. It was supposed to look like a dream, the kind of place you see in movies. I had spent all day, every single minute, trying to make it perfect. I wanted it to be just right for Zara.I took a deep breath. It didn't do much. My heart was pounding like a drum. I kept thinking, "What if she doesn't like it? What if it's not good enough?" I looked around again. We had hung little lights everywhere. They twinkled, even though it wasn't dark yet. We had put up her favorite flowers, the bright yellow ones. I had even gotten some special candles that smelled like vanilla, her favorite."Man, you look like you're about to jump out of your skin," Jeremy said. He was standing next to me, trying to look cool. He always looked cool. I wished I could be that calm."I'm nervous," I admitted. "Really nervous

ZARA POVI felt so much better. My body was strong again. Hero had taken care of everything. He made Paul and Alvira tell everyone what they did. The whole squad saw it, even Kira. They told the truth about trying to hurt me. Because of this, my father was going to lose his position as Alpha. He was in big trouble.But we had a big problem. We couldn't tell everyone about the mountain. It had too much magic. If other packs found out, they could use it for bad things. So, we all agreed to keep the mountain a secret.I knew Mascold wasn't happy about us leaving the mountain because they were torn between the fear of letting their secret out. Paxton and his mate tried to talk to us then and we had refused. I felt glad I had turn them down because right now, I was walking back into my old house to confront my father finally. It should have been my home, but it never really felt like it. I walked tall and proud. No one dared to touch me.I wondered why. Maybe they knew Hero was my mate, an

HERO POV"Are you alright?" I asked again, my voice low. I looked at her wrists, at the marks left by the cuffs, and at the rough collar around her neck. A wave of anger washed over me, a hot, burning feeling. Even though Weston was gone, I wanted to hurt him again, just for touching her like this. How could anyone do this to her?She blinked slowly, her eyes looking tired. "Yeah," she whispered, "I'm... I'm okay." She paused, her eyes fluttering. "But... I think I'm going to faint.”And then, just like that, she went limp in my arms. I felt a surge of panic. "Zara!" I called, but she didn't respond. I held her close, carefully lifting her into my arms. She was so light.I walked out of the cabin, the wooden floor creaking under my boots. The night air was cool, and the moon was bright, casting long shadows. I held Zara tightly, my heart pounding.Suddenly, I heard a soft rustling sound from the trees nearby. It was a subtle sound, like leaves moving, but my senses were sharp. I stopp
