ELIANA

"Then why are you here?" she asked, her eyes darting backward every few seconds, as if she feared being ambushed. There was something undeniably odd about her, and I found myself growing increasingly uneasy.

Her question caught me off guard, and I felt a spark of defensiveness ignite within me. Did I need permission to be at Axel's?

"I'm here with Axel," I said, arching my brow in query. "Is there a problem?"

The moment Axel's name left my lips, the stranger's expression transformed. Fear flashed across her face, her eyes widening in alarm. Even I, not exactly skilled at reading expressions, couldn't miss the terror etched on her features.

She glanced over her shoulder again, her fear intensifying. Her gaze darted around the room, as if she expected Axel to materialize at any moment. The air seemed to thicken with tension, and I sensed a dark undercurrent lurking beneath the surface.

"He's not interested in you," she whispered intensely, her eyes locked on mine with a desperat

    ELIANAAxel emerged from the corner, his eyes scanning the hallway with an unnerving intensity. His gaze followed the path the stranger had taken, and for a fleeting moment, I thought I saw a flicker of recognition - in his eyes.Axel's gaze shifted back to me, his eyes narrowing slightly as he asked, "Was anyone here?"I hesitated, unsure of how to respond. My eyes darted around to the empty hallway as if searching for an answer. The stranger's sudden departure had left an uncomfortable silence, and I felt caught in the middle, unsure of what to reveal or conceal.I opened my mouth to speak, but the words caught in my throat. Axel's intense stare made me feel like I was withholding a secret, even though I wasn't entirely sure what was going on."Ummm, no," I stammered, the words tumbling out before I could reconsider. I wasn't sure if I had just made a terrible mistake by lying, but it was the best I could come up with on short notice.My mind was a jumble of conflicting emotions and

    AxelI slammed the plates into the kitchen cabinets, the clatter echoing through the room as I struggled to contain the anger boiling inside me. My hands trembled with rage, my fingers clenched into fists as I fought to maintain a fragile grip on my temper.Everything was going well. I hope Anastasia doesn't ruin it for me. If she does, I would thirst for the last of her blood.I gritted my teeth, my anger simmering just below the surface. I had thought my beta had everything under control, but now I wasn't so sure. One of them had escaped, and I had a sinking feeling that they might have made contact with her.I was certain it was Anastasia.She had chosen to keep secrets from me, to lie about the issues brewing within my own walls. The audacity was staggering. Once she left, I would confirm whether any of them had been involved, and if so, there would be consequences.Eliana's actions only made my suspicions stronger. Her deception and dishonesty were proof that I needed to take dra

  • The Alpha's Rejection, The King's Obsession    History Was Made

    ***33 YEARS AGOThe sky was a deep, foreboding grey, like a physical manifestation of the unease that settled over the land. Just minutes ago, the sun had been out and clear on the Nightshade Pack's territory, warming the earth beneath their feet. But now, the air was electric with anticipation, the thunder booming and crackling through the air.It was a storm like no other, one that seemed to draw the very breath from the atmosphere. The pack's elders would later tell stories of a similar storm, one that had ravaged their lands centuries ago when the ruthless Lycan King Azrael had met his end.But this storm felt different. The thunder seemed to vibrate through every molecule of air, the lightning illuminating the dark clouds in eerie, pulsing flashes. The storm's intensity was palpable, and it seemed to be building towards something - a reckoning, a revelation, or a transformation that would change the Nightshade Pack's world forever.Sophia's faint shout echoed through the empty r

    ELIANAAxel's beta emerged from the corner, bowing slightly as he took in our surroundings. "Any issues?" Axel asked.His stern face was back, his expression unreadable. "No," his beta replied, his voice low. “But there is some information I want to pass”“Okay, go on.”The beta leaned in closer to Axel, presumably to whisper the details in his ear. But Axel's gaze never left mine. Instead, he commanded, "Spill."His voice was firm and authoritative, filling the space around us. It was as if he didn't care if I heard the conversation or not.My heart sank. Was it my father? Had they finally caught up with me? But before I could worry more, the news was released: "The Alpha of the Nightshade Pack is making his new mate Luna."My heart dropped like a stone. Axel's gaze locked onto mine, searching for my reaction. I tried to appear strong, to mask my emotions, but a sharp pain pierced my chest, threatening to expose my true feelings."The Luna ceremony will be held in the next full moon,

    AXEL I needed her to feel at ease around me, to trust me implicitly, and to obey my every command without hesitation. That's what I craved. She smiled back at me, revealing her flawless teeth, and for a moment, I felt a spark of excitement; this wasn't just going to be another revenge; it would be an exciting journey.I couldn't help but wonder why that asshole had left her. The new Luna, the woman I'd seen earlier, was a far cry from the genuine article. All she seemed to care about was power, and it was painfully obvious. The fool probably thought she loved him, but I wasn't buying it.It was laughably obvious, and yet he claimed to be an alpha? It was a joke. He couldn't even detect the most basic of manipulations, and that was a pathetic display of leadership. What a shame.Perhaps fate had other plans; events had fallen in order to bring her into my life at the perfect moment. It was as if fate itself had conspired to deliver her into my hands, and I couldn't help but feel a sen

    ELIANAI sprinted for my life, desperate to escape the two enormous wolves hot on my heels. With every passing second, they closed in, their panting growing louder. My heart racing, I pushed my legs to their limit, but they felt like lead, threatening to buckle beneath me. Refusing to give in, I summoned every last ounce of strength and kept running.Although the larger wolf was closing in on me, I found myself fixated on the smaller one. Despite the bigger wolf's proximity, I felt a greater sense of fear towards the smaller one.Just as the larger wolf was about to pounce, I braced myself for impact. But instead of attacking me, it gently swept me up in its thick, luxurious blue fur. The unexpected tenderness brought instant relief, soothing the temporary pain and leaving me stunned.We thought we'd escaped, the large blue-furred wolf and I fleeing together from the relentless pursuit of the smaller wolf. But soon, the smaller wolf caught up, and to my shock, the tables turned. The l

    ELIANAAxel reappeared in an instant, his eyes scanning the room as he took in the scene. "What's wrong?" he asked, his brow furrowed with concern.I was still gasping for breath, my chest heaving up and down. Axel's gaze locked onto mine, and he sat down beside me on the bed, his movements fluid and gentle. He shifted closer, his presence a comforting warmth that enveloped me.Axel's hand gently lifted my chin, guiding my gaze to meet his. I was certain he could see the fear lingering in my eyes, but he searched for something more. "What happened?" he asked again, his tone laced with concern, yet edged with a hint of frustration that I wasn't opening up to him. His eyes seemed to bore into mine."I... I had a nightmare," I admitted, feeling an overwhelming urge to rest my head on Axel's chest, but hesitating, unsure if it was too intimate.Axel's brow arched in curiosity. "A nightmare, huh? What happened in the nightmare, exactly?" he pressed, his eyes locked onto mine.Just as I was

    ELIANAI slowly opened my eyes to find the morning sun peeking through the gap in the curtains. It was morning already? The day seemed to have flown by, with the night feeling eerily short. I stretched languidly, feeling the comfort of the bed, and trying to shake off the sense of urgency that had settled in my mind.The heat was oppressive, making a morning bath a necessity. I got out of bed and headed to the bathroom, but as I reached for the doorknob, I found it wouldn't budge - the door was locked. Confusion etched on my face, I wondered, "Didn't I just...?" But my train of thought faltered, and I couldn't shake the feeling that something was off.I had just used the bathroom last night; how come it was locked? Was the door knob spoilt or something… I thought.A knock on the door broke the silence, and I called out, "Come in." A woman entered, her smile faltering for a moment before she regained her composure. I could tell it was forced."Good morning, ma'am," she said, her tone p

    AXELThe full moon had risen once more, a reminder of the time that had passed since I last spoke with Eliana. I had given her a clear order to be here, but when the moment came, she was nowhere to be found. Frustration settled in, and I knew I couldn't let this slide. I sent Tom to fetch her, determined to ensure she understood the importance of her presence. This meeting was not just a casual visit; it was a significant moment that demanded her attention.The full moon hung heavy in the sky, a silent reminder of the promise I'd made and the punishment I'd vowed. Eliana should have been here, standing before me.But she wasn't. I'd sent Tom, a man who wouldn't fail, to bring her back. This wasn't just a meeting.it was a reckoning.I had chosen the forest because it drew me in with its haunting beauty, its twisted limbs and whispering leaves resonating deeply within me.

    ELIANA"Okay, I should pack my clothes then," I said, trying to convey with my expression that he should give me some privacy and let me pack. However, Tom didn't take the hint. Instead, he just stood there, staring at me with an unwavering gaze that made me feel like he was waiting for something, or maybe even searching for something in my reaction. His eyes seemed to bore into me, making me feel uncomfortable and self-conscious. I shifted my weight, feeling a growing sense of unease under his intense scrutiny."You wouldn't be needing much, a uniform will be given to you," Tom said, his words dripping with an air of finality. My heart sank, drenched in disappointment and a sense of loss. But I steeled myself, refusing to let my emotions get the better of me. I reminded myself that this was still a better fate than being back at Herold's estate, a place that held nothing but pain and misery for me. I took a deep breath, trying to find solace in the fact that I was moving forward,

I still couldn’t comprehend.The knock was like a shockwave, snapping me back to reality and forcing me to confront the unease that had been building up inside me. I felt disoriented, like I'd been pulled out of a nightmare, but the sense of dread lingered, refusing to dissipate. Something about the knock seemed ominous, like a harbinger of bad news, and I couldn't shake the feeling that whatever was on the other side of the door was going to make things worse. I hesitated for a moment, my heart racing, before I slowly got up to answer the door, my mind still reeling from the darkness that had consumed me just moments before."Come in," I said, my voice wavering slightly as I tried to compose mysel

    ELANAToday was the full moon, and I was supposed to meet Axel – the anticipation had been building up inside me like a stormy weather. As the appointed time drew closer, my emotions swirled in a complex dance, each step carefully choreographed by uncertainty and curiosity. What did Axel want to show me? Was it something he'd been planning for a long time, or was it a spontaneous decision? The questions swirled in my mind like a vortex, making it hard to focus on anything else.As I waited, anxiety crept in, its presence subtle yet palpable. What if this was something life-changing?

  • The Alpha's Rejection, The King's Obsession    Can’t Comprehend

    ELIANAThings were different between us now, but it hadn't been a fairytale. Even after all this time, I still felt a surge of protectiveness towards her that was both infuriating and undeniable. It was as if my instincts had been hardwired to shield her from harm, no matter how much logic screamed otherwise. The memories of it lingered, refusing to be extinguished by the passing of time or the complications that had grown between us. Every glance, every word, every shared moment seemed to tug at the threads of a bond that neither of us fully understood. And yet, despite the depth of these feelings, the reality was far from perfect. Life had a way of testing our resolve, of pushing us to confront the parts of our relationship that were fragile, frayed, or broken. Still, the protectiveness remained—a stubborn, maddening part of me that refused to let go.If I ask you ‘if you were in my shoes what will you do?’ of course I know what your response will be.If I were in your shoes, I'

But the most unbearable part was the weight of Axel's disdain, a palpable force that pierced my very soul. It wasn't as though we had ever been close or even particularly fond of each other; in fact, I had always gotten the sense that he tolerated me at best.Yet, there was something about the way he looked at me now that was different. The disdain had always been there, simmering just below the surface, but now it had erupted into full-blown hatred. His eyes, once perhaps just cold or indifferent, now burned with an intensity that made my skin crawl. Every glance was like a dagger to the heart, a reminder that I had somehow managed to incur his wrath.As I navigated the treacherous landscape of our relationship, I couldn't help but wonder what had triggered this shift. Had I unknowingly crossed a line? Had something I did or said sparked this fierce animosity? The ques
