The Curse Within Chapter 64
Elara’s POVI don’t know when exactly the man I once knew became someone else entirely. Maybe it happened slowly, like a sickness that creeps in unnoticed, or maybe it was sudden—a break in his mind that no one saw coming. But there’s no denying it now. Thorne has changed. I don’t know if it’s the years of war, the loss of power, or the betrayal that shattered him, but the man who once held me in his arms, promising us a life together… he’s gone.Now, he’s consumed by something darker. Revenge. It’s all he thinks about. The way he speaks of it, the fire in his eyes when he mentions Sofia or the pack, it's almost as if nothing else matters. I watch him, standing there, pacing in the dark corners of our hidden fortress, plotting. His obsession with her—the woman he once claimed to be our enemy’s savior, and now our greatest threat—has taken hold of him completely. He mutters her name in his sleep sometimes, in that broken tone that still shatters me.I should be angry. After all, it was

SOFIA'S POVThe day had barely begun, yet I already felt the weight of it pressing down on me. I hadn’t slept well. Not really. Even after training with Lyra, the fatigue seemed to cling to me like a second skin. My mind felt like a tangled mess of thoughts—some scattered, some persistent, and some that I didn’t even understand. But through it all, one thought kept echoing in my mind: What if I’m not enough?That question had been haunting me for days, maybe weeks now. But last night, after talking with Alaric, it had become louder. What if I couldn’t live up to the legend? What if I wasn’t the person they thought I was supposed to be?I rubbed my temples as I made my way down the stone steps from the pack house. The morning air was cool, but it didn’t do much to ease the tension in my chest. I could feel it there, gnawing at me—the weight of expectations, of a future I wasn’t sure I was ready for. Not just for me, but for the entire pack. For Alaric. Everyone seemed to believe in me,

Alaric’s POVThe days had been blurring together, each one more difficult than the last. Between the constant patrols, the mounting tension with Thorne, and the relentless demands of the pack, it felt like there was no escape. And the hardest part wasn’t even the physical exhaustion. It was Sofia. My mate. The weight of everything she was dealing with—the burden of the legend, the power she hadn’t yet learned to control, the fear that clung to her every time we spoke of the future—was tearing her apart in ways I couldn’t fix.I had watched her since she first arrived, watched as she learned to shift, to fight, to navigate the complicated world of wolves. But nothing had prepared me for how fragile she was beneath the surface. The strength she showed in training, the resilience she displayed when facing challenges, was only half of the story. The other half—the one that weighed her down—was a constant struggle to figure out who she was, who she was meant to be.And every time I saw her

Sofia's POVThe drive to the lake house felt surreal, like a dream I wasn’t entirely sure I was living. The landscape outside the car window blurred into a haze of trees and rolling hills, the world unfolding in shades of green and gold as we left the pack house behind. The familiar sense of dread that often clung to me seemed to lift the farther we went, as if the distance was enough to separate me from everything I was running from.Alaric was beside me, his presence a quiet comfort, but there was a restlessness in the air, something unspoken between us that made the silence feel heavier than usual. He had been insistent on this weekend, on giving me a break, and I couldn’t bring myself to argue. I knew he was right, that I needed it, but a part of me still felt like I was abandoning the pack, abandoning my responsibilities. It was a constant battle in my mind, the voice telling me I needed to be strong, that I couldn’t afford to let my guard down, to let go.But Alaric’s presence b

Alaric's POVThe sun hung low in the sky, casting a soft, golden light across the lake, the water rippling gently as a light breeze whispered through the trees. The world around us felt alive, vibrant, and untouched, as if time itself had slowed to a gentle crawl. This place, this lake house, was a sanctuary, a rare haven away from everything, and today, it felt more like home than it ever had.Sofia was beside me, her steps light, her presence a calming anchor as we walked down the familiar path toward the edge of the water. Her white hair shimmered in the sunlight, catching the light like silver threads, her eyes soft but contemplative as she took in the beauty around us."I can't believe how much I missed this place," she said softly, her voice carrying the weight of the memories that had been tied to this spot. "It feels different this time, though. Like... like I'm seeing it for the first time."I smiled at her words, my heart swelling with a quiet sense of relief. It had been my

Sofia's POVThe warmth of Alaric’s lips lingered on mine, his touch a heady mix of comfort and desire. Everything about this place, this moment, felt like it belonged to another world—one where there were no looming threats, no ancient legends, no impossible expectations pressing down on my shoulders. It was just us, here and now, with nothing between us but the cool evening air.When I opened my eyes, his gaze was already locked on mine, amber depths filled with something raw and unspoken. His hand brushed along my jawline, a soft, deliberate touch that sent a shiver down my spine.“Are you okay?” he asked, his voice barely above a whisper, though I could feel the weight of the question in every word.I nodded, the answer coming easily because, for the first time in what felt like forever, I truly was. “Yes,” I said, my voice steady, though my heart raced in my chest. “I’m more than okay.”Alaric smiled, a slow, knowing curve of his lips that made my breath hitch. He leaned in again,

Sofia's povThe morning light filtered through the curtains of the lake house, casting a warm glow on the wooden floorboards. I lay in bed, staring at the ceiling as the memories of last night replayed in my mind. My skin still tingled from Alaric’s touch, my heart pounding at the thought of how completely he’d made me feel seen, cherished, and whole.But beneath the warmth of our intimacy was a lingering sense of unease. It wasn’t Alaric’s fault. If anything, he was the only person who made me feel like I could breathe through the storm. Still, the weight of everything—the legend, the pack’s expectations, the growing danger of Thorne—pressed heavily on my chest.I sat up slowly, pulling the soft blanket around me as I looked out the window. The lake shimmered in the morning sun, its surface calm and inviting. For a brief moment, it felt like the rest of the world didn’t exist, like this place was separate from the chaos waiting for us back home.The door creaked open, and I turned to

Sofia's POVThe sunlight streaming through the windows was soft and golden as I stretched out on the couch, a cup of tea in my hands. Alaric had insisted I take the morning for myself, saying he needed to handle something outside, though he didn’t elaborate. I had tried to protest, but the way he’d kissed my forehead and told me to relax left little room for argument.The lake house was quiet, save for the gentle rustle of leaves outside and the distant chirping of birds. It was the kind of peace I hadn’t known I needed. For once, there were no training drills, no meetings, no one hovering around me, waiting for me to live up to some expectation I didn’t fully understand.But as much as I wanted to enjoy this calm, my mind refused to stay still.I kept thinking about the pack, about the responsibilities waiting for me back home. Every time I thought I was beginning to grasp the weight of it all, something new would come along to remind me how much I still didn’t know. The legend, the

The Curse Within Epilogue
Three Years Later.The sun was low in the sky, casting a warm, golden glow over the lush green fields surrounding the pack's new home. The once-barren land now flourished, the earth rich with life, much like the bond between Alaric and Sofia. The house, built with stone and wood, sat at the edge of the forest, just far enough to feel the wildness but close enough to the pack’s heart. It was a symbol of their triumph, of their new beginning, and their unwavering strength as leaders.Sofia sat on the porch, a soft breeze ruffling her hair, as she watched her two pups playing in the yard. Sifa, the older of the two, bounded around with the energy of a small wolf, his dark eyes gleaming with mischief. His fur, a deep, rich brown, gleamed under the sunlight, much like Alaric’s. Sara, a one-year-old bundle of joy, followed her brother’s every move, her golden curls bouncing as she tried to mimic his every action, though she was still finding her feet. Her laughter filled the air, a sound so
The Curse Within Chapter 105
The day after the battle dawned clear and bright, the air cool but filled with the promise of a new beginning. The landscape before them, once marred by the carnage of war, now seemed to pulse with life, as if nature itself was rejoicing in the peace that had settled, albeit temporarily. The ground was still littered with the remnants of war—broken weapons, the bodies of fallen warriors—but in their midst stood something more powerful, something that couldn’t be erased: hope.Alaric and Sofia stood together, shoulder to shoulder, on the rise above the battlefield, watching as their people began to gather. Their pack, their family, was rebuilding, and a sense of unity hummed in the air. The battle was over, but the war was not the end. It was only the beginning of something bigger, something they had only begun to understand.Alaric's grip tightened on the hilt of his sword, the weight of it a constant reminder of the burden he carried. His eyes, those intense blue eyes that had seen s
The Curse Within Chapter 104
The once chaotic battlefield now lay in eerie silence. The sounds of growling, snarling, and clashing claws had faded, leaving only the sounds of heavy breaths and the occasional cry of the wounded. The scent of blood still hung thick in the air, mingling with the dust and smoke rising from the fire-lit remains of the battle. It was over. Thorne was dead, but the cost had been high.Alaric stood amidst the wreckage, his eyes scanning the field. His fur was matted with blood, some of it his own, some of it from the warriors who had fought against him. He had been at the center of the storm, leading his pack through the carnage, and now, with Thorne’s death, a semblance of peace had returned—at least for the moment.But peace was an illusion.As his eyes flickered over the fallen bodies of Thorne’s warriors, some who had fought fiercely, others who had simply been swept along in the madness of their leader’s ambition, Alaric couldn’t shake the weight of the future pressing down on him.
The Curse Within Chapter 103
ALARIC'S POVThe battlefield had become a blur of motion and chaos. The scent of blood, sweat, and fear clung to the air, mixing with the sharp tang of adrenaline. Warriors fought in wolf form, their bodies flashing in the dim light, their howls and growls reverberating through the chaos. The air was thick with tension, the earth shaking beneath the ferocity of their battle.Alaric’s heart pounded as he moved through the battlefield, each step purposeful and calculated. His silver fur gleamed, an unspoken symbol of his power and dominance as the Eclipse Wolf. His eyes, sharp and focused, scanned the horizon, knowing the final showdown was approaching.In the distance, he saw him—Thorne. The leader of the enemy forces. His once-proud form was bloodied and battered, his fur matted and torn from the ongoing conflict, yet his eyes burned with the same fire of madness that had driven him to this point. Thorne had lost control over his army, and now, in the final moments of the battle, he s
The Curse Within Chapter 102
The battle was chaos, a flurry of fur and fangs as warriors collided in wolf form, each one fighting with a ferocity born of survival and loyalty. The ground trembled beneath the thunder of paws, and the air was thick with the scent of blood, sweat, and fear. But amidst it all, Sofia's heart beat with a steady rhythm, her instincts sharp, her senses heightened as she fought beside Alaric.Her fur was dark, shimmering under the light of the moon as she darted through the battlefield, her mind focused on the task at hand—breaking through Thorne's ranks. Every time she pushed her claws into the earth, a surge of power rippled through her, her connection to her wolf form deepening as her strength grew.She caught a glimpse of Alaric ahead, his silver fur flashing as he tore through Thorne's forces. His eyes were focused, his movements calculated, a deadly force in their own right. The Eclipse Wolf had fully emerged within him, and with every strike, Alaric's dominance over the battlefield
The Curse Within Chapter 101
Alaric’s POVThe air was thick with tension, a heavy, oppressive atmosphere that settled over the battlefield like a storm before the rain. I stood at the forefront of my forces, eyes scanning the horizon, searching for any sign of movement. My warriors were ready, their weapons sharp, their expressions determined, but the waiting was always the hardest part. It was a necessary evil, the calm before the chaos.Sofia stood beside me, her gaze equally sharp, though there was an unreadable depth in her eyes. She wasn’t just a warrior anymore. She had embraced something darker, something more powerful. Her dream abilities, her growing control over the shadows, had shifted the tides in our favor, but now, with the battle at hand, we would need to rely on more than just influence from afar."You’re ready," I said, my voice low, though my words were an attempt to reassure both of us. Sofia met my gaze, a slight nod confirming my words, though I could see the flicker of uncertainty behind her
The Curse Within Chapter 100
Sofia's POVThe night before the battle felt heavier than the previous days combined. The weight of everything—our entire future, the future of the pack, and all those who had fought by our side—hung in the air like a thick, oppressive fog. It was a moment of quiet before the storm, but in that silence, I could hear my heart pounding in my chest, the steady rhythm of nerves and determination. Tomorrow would change everything, but I wasn’t sure if I was ready for it.I stood outside the camp, away from the hustle of preparations, allowing myself a few moments of solitude. The night was cold, but the chill didn’t bother me. I was too caught up in the whirlwind of thoughts, doubts, and the growing unease that was gnawing at me. It was the feeling of knowing something was coming, something I couldn’t control, and the fear that I might not be able to handle it when it did.I could sense Alaric before I even heard his footsteps. The air shifted, and there was a presence at my side. He wasn’
The Curse Within Chapter 99
Sofia’s POVThe night felt heavy, oppressive, as if the very air around us was thickening, suffocating. The calm before the storm, I thought, though it didn’t feel like calm at all. I had been walking around the camp for hours, unable to settle my mind. Too much had happened in too little time, and now everything seemed poised on the edge of breaking.Thorne was becoming more erratic by the day. His decisions were rash, his temper volatile. But it wasn’t just him—it was his army, too. I could feel the tremors of doubt creeping through their ranks, a quiet undercurrent that threatened to pull everything apart. His warriors were beginning to question, to falter. The cracks were widening, and I knew it wouldn’t take much to shatter everything.I felt Alaric before I saw him. His presence was like a weight in the air, grounding, comforting. He had become my anchor in this chaos, the one constant I could rely on, even when everything else seemed to be slipping through my fingers. His foots
The Curse Within Chapter 98
Sofia's POVThe cold wind whipped across the plains, biting at my skin as I stood near the edge of the camp. The feeling of unease hadn’t left me for days, but tonight it felt heavier, more palpable. There was something about the stillness in the air, the way the sky seemed to stretch on forever without a single cloud to break the vast emptiness, that made it feel like we were on the cusp of something monumental. We were about to change everything, and yet, in my heart, I couldn’t shake the feeling that we were teetering on the edge of disaster.I couldn’t help but glance toward the horizon, where the faintest glow of the setting sun reflected off the distant mountains. It was hard to reconcile the peaceful beauty of the scene with the violence we were about to face. I had always known that this day would come, that the battle against Thorne and his army would be inevitable, but it didn’t make the reality of it any easier to accept. In the past few days, I had pushed my fear aside, fo
