Beta Marcus

I bring my thumb to my mouth, biting down on the nail in agitation. I barely notice as I bite through to the quick, the metallic taste of blood filling my mouth. I don't stop. I can't stop.

"What do I do?" I whisper to the empty room. "What the fuck do I do?"

But there are no answers. No solutions. Just the crushing weight of fear and the knowledge that I've made a terrible, possibly fatal mistake.

My entire world has been turned upside down. Everything I thought I knew, everything I believed about power and hierarchy in our world, has been shattered. And in its place is only terror - a bone-deep, soul-shaking terror that threatens to consume me entirely.

I remain there, huddled in the corner, my sanity hanging by a thread. The Feral Alpha's blue eyes continue to haunt me, that moment of connection replaying over and over. And with each repetition, I feel myself slipping further into the abyss of fear and madness.

The night stretches on endlessly, a dark mirror to the terr

    Beta Marcus I take a deep breath, steeling myself for the conversation ahead. "Alpha, they came because Alpha Darius's young son and heir was killed a few months ago," I begin, watching Magnus's reaction carefully. "It happened on their territory. The death was... brutal." Magnus's eyebrows shoot up, genuine surprise flashing across his features. "His son? Isn't that his only child?" I nod grimly. "Yes, Alpha. After decades of trying, it was the only pup they managed to have. Just a little one, hadn't even had his first shift yet." "Damn," Magnus mutters, his brow furrowing. "No wonder he's that wound up about it," Magnus muses, his brow furrowing. "How exactly did it happen?" "The boy was found dead in the woods within their territory," I explain, choosing my words carefully. "As I said, it was brutal. It bears a striking resemblance to those mysterious murders that have been plaguing packs worldwide." Understanding dawns on Magnus's face. "Ah, so that's why they're seeking an

    Beta Marcus I keep my gaze fixed downward, afraid that if I look up, Magnus might see the fear and malice in my eyes. His silence stretches on, oppressive and unsettling. The room feels charged with an energy I can't quite understand. Has he seen through my lies? Is he about to call my bluff? Finally, when Magnus speaks again, his question catches me off guard. "Where is Diana now?" I blink, momentarily thrown by the unexpected inquiry. "I... I saw her outside Garnet City, Alpha," I reply, quickly regaining my composure. "She was with a wolf who fits the description of the Feral Alpha." I pause, swallowing heavily as I dart a quick look at Magnus as I deliver the next piece of information. "Also, according to my sources, she is in a romantic relationship with this wolf. The bond appears strong, and they are most likely going to mate." The sound of shattering glass fills the room, making me jump. I look up in surprise to find Magnus standing, his face ashen with shock. His hands a

    Alpha Magnus I stand in my office, the world around me blurring as my mind struggles to process the information Beta Marcus has just shared. The revelation hits me like a physical blow, leaving me disoriented and breathless. As the door closes behind Marcus, I find myself sinking into my chair, my thoughts a chaotic whirlwind. The first coherent thought that emerges from the fog of my mind is a startling realization. The day Beta Marcus sustained those injuries... it was the exact same day I rejected Diana. The timing, the proximity - it all aligns with chilling precision. I recall Marcus's account of the incident, his words echoing in my mind: "I saw her rummaging through my office and I thought it was quite suspicious. When I confronted her, she attacked me. I suspect she might have been trying to steal something. I didn’t expect it at all Alpha, so my guard was down." At the time, I hadn't given it much thought. Just figured it was some random low ranking wolf who was into pe

    Alpha Magnus "Diana," I whisper her name like a prayer. "What have I done to you?" The weight of my actions, the enormity of my mistakes, crashes down upon me. I remain on my knees, doubled over in pain and remorse, as the full impact of my decisions finally hits home. In this moment, I am no longer the powerful Alpha Magnus. I am simply a man facing the devastating consequences of his choices, grappling with the realization that he may have irreparably damaged the one person he was meant to protect above all others. As my wolf continues its relentless assault, I close my eyes, allowing the pain to wash over me. It's a fitting punishment, I think, for the suffering I've caused. And as I kneel there, broken and remorseful, I wonder if there's any way to make this right, or if I've lost Diana forever. As I kneel on the floor, my forehead lowers and presses against the cold surface when another realization crashes over me like a tidal wave. Diana isn't just on the run; she's abo

    Diana The world fades away as Dominicus lifts me into his arms, cradling me against his chest as if I'm the most precious thing in the world. His warmth envelops me, chasing away the chill that had settled deep in my bones. With each step he takes towards the cabin, I feel the tension in my body slowly uncoiling. Inside, he gently lowers me onto the soft couch. Before I can miss his touch, he's back, now wearing a pair of trousers. He settles beside me, pulling me onto his lap with tender care. I curl into him, seeking the comfort of his presence. "I've got you," he murmurs, his voice a soothing balm to my frayed nerves. "You're safe now, Diana. I won't let anything happen to you ever again." The day passes in a haze of gentle touches and whispered reassurances. Dominicus tends to me tirelessly, his patience seemingly endless. He coaxes me to eat, wraps me in soft blankets, and holds me close when the memories threaten to overwhelm me. Slowly, under his attentive care, the trembli

    Diana "No! I mean, yes, but..." I stumble over my words, desperate to explain. "At first, I was scared and confused. I went to work to clear my head, to try and make sense of it all. But Dom, I promise you, it was only for a moment. I don't believe those things now. I know you're not that person." I grab his face in my hands, forcing him to look at me. "Please believe me. I was wrong to doubt you, even for a moment." He stares at me not saying anything for a moment before, "Diana," he whispers, pain lacing his voice. "I was the one who gave you those books." He looks down, falling silent, but I can feel the sadness radiating from him. The realization hits me like a physical blow. Of course, he knows what's the content of those books. He gave them to me because he trusted that I wouldn't believe what was written. He had confidence in me, and I had let him down. "You already knew?" I ask softly, feeling foolish even as the words leave my lips. He nods slowly. "Yes... But you

    Dominicus I lead Diana through the dense forest, my mind clouded with memories I've long tried to suppress. The woods are thick, untamed, with no clear path to guide us. But I know exactly where I'm going. Every tree, every rock, every scent is etched into my memory, a painful reminder of a past that has haunted me for almost a century. Finally, we break through the treeline, and I feel Diana's sharp intake of breath beside me. "It's magnificent," Diana breathes in amazement. I can't help the bitter twist of my lips. "It used to be," I think to myself, the words too painful to voice aloud. I stare at the ruins, lost in a haze of memories. The laughter that once echoed through these halls, the warmth of family, the sense of purpose and belonging – all gone now, reduced to rubble and regret. "This... this used to be my home," I finally manage to say, my voice barely above a whisper. Diana squeezes my hand gently, a silent gesture of support. She doesn't push, doesn't rush

    Content Warning: Depictions of violence, death and bloodshed. Dominicus The shrill ring of the phone cuts through the silence of my office, startling me from my paperwork. I reach for it, a slight frown creasing my brow. It's unusual for anyone to call at this hour unless it's urgent. "Alpha Dominicus speaking," I answer, my voice crisp and authoritative. "Sir," comes the reply, and I immediately recognize the voice of Samuel, one of our most trusted Betas. There's an edge to his tone that sets me on alert. "We have a situation here at the Pack grounds." I lean forward in my chair, instinctively tensing. "What kind of situation, Samuel?" He hesitates for a moment, and I can almost see him running a hand through his hair – a nervous habit of his. "It's... it's hard to explain, sir. Things are getting heated. I've personally broken up at least five fights today alone, and those are only the ones I've seen." My frown deepens. Fight breakouts aren't uncommon in a pack as lar

    DianaI don’t say anything. I can’t—because part of me agrees with him.He searches my face, voice cracking.“I already lost your mate. And for 13 years, I believed I lost my child too. I won’t lose you.”The silence between us stretches again. The grief in his words coils around my ribs like a vice.After a long moment, I exhale.“I promise,” I say softly, reaching for his hand, “we’ll talk about this. We’ll figure it out. But right now… let’s go back inside. There’s still more Eleanor has to tell us.”He looks at me for a long moment. Then, finally, he nods.We walk back together, quiet and heavy with unspoken thoughts. Inside, the room is just as we left it—Dominicus and Eleanor still seated, their faces somber.Billy crosses his arms as he steps in, his tone dry but edged in steel.“Might as well just leave her with the humans. She was safe there. Let her stay hidden.”Eleanor tilts her head slightly.“Yes, she’s safe,” she says calmly. “But for how long?”He frowns but doesn’t an

    Diana The room goes quiet. I blink in confusion, taken aback and not understanding why he’s so angry. My brows furrow as I watch him in confusion. He seems to be getting more furious by the second. It’s a fury I don’t think I have ever seen on him before. My mind races a second more and it clicks. My heart stutters before dropping to the pit of my stomach. I hadn’t thought of that. Not fully. Shit! Blood drains from my face and I suddenly feel sick. Billy asks again, slower this time, the words like steel. “Who the fuck did you say was gonna fight him?” Eleanor’s expression crumples into something close to guilt. She looks down. I bite my lower lip. Dom’s brows draw together. Billy’s voice is calm but dark. “Three people, right? That’s what you said?” He points at Dominicus. “One is the Amadeus Alpha. He’ll fight the physical battle.” Then he points at me. I flinch. “Second is the Castellanos Alpha and Priestess. That’s you.” I can’t meet his eyes. “And the third…

    Diana He starts pacing toward the door like a man possessed. I glance outside—the sky is pitch black, the moon high and silver. “Billy,” I say gently, “it’s late. Why don’t we go tomorrow?” But he shakes his head, already reaching for the doorknob. “I can’t wait. Who knows where she is? What kinda situation she’s in? If she’s far, the sooner I leave, the sooner I’ll reach her—” Eleanor lifts her eyes to Dom in a silent signal. Dominicus stands immediately, moves forward, and catches Billy by the shoulders before he can bolt. “Wait,” he says gently but firmly. “Where are you going? You don’t even have the tracker yet. How will you find her without it?” Billy blinks. “Right. Right, right.” He lets himself be guided back, still jittery, heart pounding in his chest. He turns to Eleanor again, eyes wide and pleading. “Then give it to me. The… the thing you said. What is it?” “I’ll make you a Scrythorn,” Eleanor replies. “It’s an ancient charm, carved and imbued with s

    Diana Billy hasn’t moved. His eyes are bloodshot and shining, and when he finally speaks, his voice is hoarse. “You said you used dark magic, too,” he rasps to Eleanor. “But you’re still here. Still… you. Why couldn’t she do the same?” Eleanor’s face softens. “Because she wasn’t strong enough. Six years of dark magic, even in small doses, is too much. I stopped after one spell. I cut myself off. Let the darkness bleed out slowly over time. But your mate…” She sighs. “She didn’t have that luxury. The curse had corrupted her too much”. But I know the rest. Eleanor is the Primarch Arcana. Stronger than any light witch alive. That’s the difference. That’s why she survived. Billy lowers his head, shoulders slumping. He doesn’t speak for a long time. My chest aches with a pressure that builds and builds until I can barely breathe. All those years, I thought no one loved me. That I meant nothing to anyone. I was wrong. Now I know—my parents, the witches who could have teleport

    Diana Eleanor folds her hands in her lap, her face as gentle as ever, but I see the flicker of regret in her eyes. “I’m sorry, Billy,” she says softly. “What I’m about to tell you might be hard to hear. But I believe it will answer the questions you’ve carried for a long time.” Billy glances between Dom and I, seeing the corresponding seriousness on our faces and sits straighter, “Go on,” he says. Eleanor nods. “Just as I was explaining to Diana and Dominicus, your mate—Myralie—was the one who suppressed Diana’s wolf. It was the only way she could keep her from shifting, and from being found.” Billy’s head jerks slightly. “Myralie?” he repeats, his brow creasing. “You mean… Myra?That her real name?” I watch the flicker of pain flash through his eyes. He once told us he didn’t know much about her. Only her name. And now it turns out… even that was only half true. There’s a bittersweet sadness in his face as the realization sets in. His mouth parts slightly, but no words come. “S

    Diana Dominicus stares at her, brows drawn. “So… you’re not dying,” he says, voice low, suspicious. “I’m not dying,” she insists, looking directly at him now. “I swear it.” He holds her gaze for a beat longer. Then, finally, he nods. I feel the tight coil of tension in his body loosen, the faintest ripple of relief coming through the bond. I exhale too, only now realizing I’d been holding my breath. “It’s not fair,” I whisper. The words slip out before I can stop them, soft and aching. Eleanor looks at me with kind eyes, and then gives a small smile. “Magic isn’t a person, dear. It has no consciousness to look into the facts surrounding the incident and decide whether or not it’s fair. It doesn’t think or feel. It simply is.” She sets her teacup down gently, the sound barely audible. “Light magic doesn’t coexist with dark magic. It won’t. The moment I used it—even to save someone—I knew what it meant. My days as the Primarch were numbered.” Her smile turns wry. “The fac

    Diana She lifts her eyes, and they shimmer with something like wonder. “I felt it. A divine ripple. Like something ancient had stirred. Like the pattern of fate had twisted slightly on its axis.” Her fingers curl around the porcelain cup. “I didn’t know what it meant. But I knew—something was coming. I didn’t know what, or who, but… I hoped.” She looks at me now. And her expression softens into something almost reverent. “And then, one morning… a girl walked in.” My throat tightens. Eleanor’s voice drops into a hush, as though telling a sacred secret. She gives me a small smile. “A werewolf… a werewolf with a sealed wolf”. “A beautiful girl,” she continues. “Her eyes were haunted and it was obvious she was running from something.” My stomach tightens. Eleanor’s expression softens again. “It took me just one look. I knew exactly who you were. The Castellanos Alpha heir. The one who escaped the massacre. I was… stunned.” She shakes her head with a quiet chuckle, bu

    Diana I swallow the lump in my throat. For the longest time, Dom had no one. I’m so glad is finding more family and loved ones. He doesn’t answer. But his eyes shine, and he reaches up, catching her wrist. “You should’ve told me,” he murmurs, his voice thick, “I wasn’t in the right state of mind for a long time, but when I got better-“ She looks at him with weary affection. “Because you’d already suffered enough,” she says softly. “You were just starting to come back to yourself. I didn’t want to pile all this… this heavy, dark mess on your shoulders.” Her eyes flick over to me, and a teasing smile tugs at her lips. “And you had just started falling in love, too. I couldn’t bear to spoil it.” My cheeks warm instantly. Eleanor chuckles. “After nearly a decade of pain and silence, you deserved a little reprieve. Both of you. Watching it happen—watching you fall for each other—it was so cute. And awkward.” I let out a tiny, strangled sound and cover my face with my hand

    DianaShe stops in front of him.“The witches at the Castellanos pack…” she says, voice quiet, “they did reach out to me.”I bite down on my lower lip. Hard.“But not to ask me to come. They weren’t calling me for help.” Her gaze flickers to me. “They just wanted me to know what was happening. That the dark witches were there. That the Castellanos were preparing to fall.”Her voice dips, heavy with the weight of regret.“I wanted to go. I swear I did.” Her hands tighten at her sides. “But I knew… I knew if I went like I was, I’d only be a burden.”The words hit like a cold wave.“I couldn’t use my magic properly,” she continues. “It was still tainted. I was still walking that razor’s edge. And if I stepped into a battle like that—drew onto the bulk of magic to battle- the dark magic inside me would’ve stirred violently… fed on the chaos”Her throat tightens.“I would’ve had two choices: fight it or give in. If I had resisted, it would have killed me. If I had given in…” She looks up a
