~Xavier~

Leaving Timbre's room behind, I decided to take a walk around the house, hoping that the change of scenery would clear my mind.

The aftermath of the ball party had left me feeling completely unlike myself. Neglecting my pack had resulted in the gradual loss of my girlfriend and best friend, and it was all happening too quickly.

I couldn't help but reflect on the unexpected turn of events here in Germany. Who could have anticipated that things would go so awry?

The urgency to take immediate action gnawed at me. I couldn't afford for the pack to perceive me as weak, fearing they might seek another Alpha. Failing was not an option, and organizing a pack meeting became paramount.

As these thoughts swirled in my head, I found myself walking past the rooms on the second floor. One room caught my attention with its slightly ajar door.

Intrigued by the curiosity of the situation, I approached the room, yearning to peek inside. The darkness concealed its contents, but a musty odor

    Timbre~ My heart froze as the guards hurriedly brought Alpha Xavier into my room. His movements were labored, his face flushed, and his eyes emitted a fiery red glow.I had witnessed his moments of panic before, but this was an entirely different experience. It seemed as if he was tormented by something, radiating an intense fear.I was relieved that I managed to calm him down, but what caught me completely off guard was when he expressed gratitude and sealed it with a kiss. I never anticipated such a gesture.Feeling a sense of relief, I watched as he distanced himself from me, breaking our eye contact while standing up. I was too stunned to speak or move, simply staring at him, awaiting an explanation for what had just occurred. However, he remained silent and slowly exited the room without looking back.Left to decipher the event on my own, I rose to my feet and approached the mirror. Standing in front of it, I cautiously ran my fingers over my lips, trying to comprehend the meani

  • The Lone Wolf Is Mine    Pack meeting

    ~Xavier~ I called a pack meeting and sat in the living room and they all assembled. They all seemed very quiet and composed as they sat, waiting for me to address them. When I was sure I could get their attention, I stood to my feet. “Good morning everyone," I greeted the pack, my voice projecting with a mix of authority and warmth. "Thank you for joining me today. I have called this meeting because there are some important matters that we need to discuss."As I looked around the room, I could sense a slight tension in the air. The pack members were focused and attentive, their eyes fixed on me, waiting to hear what I had to say."I want to start by expressing my gratitude for all the hard work and dedication each of you has shown," I continued. "Though I have been so busy, we have faced challenges together, and we have grown stronger as a pack because of it. But there are new challenges on the horizon, and it is crucial that we face them head-on."I paused for a moment, allowing m

    ~Timbre~ I approached the window upon hearing voices emanating from inside the house. Through the glass, I observed several individuals exiting the premises, engaged in a lively and animated conversation. Intrigued, I shifted my attention to the sound of the door opening behind me, discovering Fabian's familiar face wearing a wide smile."Good morning, Timbre," he greeted me cheerfully, to which I responded with a reciprocal smile. "Good morning, Fabian. How are you today?""I have never been better. We just concluded a pack meeting, and your presence became a topic of discussion," he revealed.Surprised, I raised my eyebrows in curiosity. "Really? What was discussed?""Not much, to be honest. They questioned why Xavier brought in a stranger without their consent. However, in the grand scheme of things, it's not their concern. What Xavier does is solely his business. We have always known him to be a capable Alpha, and that should suffice," Fabian explained, prompting me to carefull

    ~Xavier~ Positioned in front of the expansive window in my study room, I held my phone to my ear, anticipating Daniella's response. I needed her to elucidate the perplexing situation involving me and her witch friend. As expected, she answered the call promptly."Hey, Alpha Xavier! Good day! What brings about this pleasant call?" she playfully inquired, causing me to scoff."Please, Daniella. I'm not in the mood for playful banter," I retorted coldly."What's troubling you this time? Is it about that girl? What was her name again?""Timbre. Yes, it concerns her. I don't understand what's been happening to me lately, Daniella. I can't seem to get her out of my mind. Ever since you left, she's been constantly on my thoughts. Why? What does it mean?" I frustratingly inquired, and I could hear a soft chuckle escape her lips."Take it easy, Xavier. I want to grasp the situation clearly. What do you mean by 'she's always been in your head'? What do you see? What thoughts do you have about

    ~Timbre~ As he took a seat beside me, I nervously twiddled my fingers and began to speak. "I'm not sure how you'll react to what I'm about to say, but before I continue, I need you to promise me my freedom."In response, he scoffed and shook his head in disbelief. "Do you honestly believe that whatever you're about to tell me is worth granting you freedom? It's never going to happen, Timbre," he retorted, rising from the bed and heading toward the door."Alison is involved with another man!" I exclaimed, causing him to abruptly halt. Slowly, he turned his head to face me, his face registering anger."What do you mean?" he asked in a low voice, trying to keep his composure."I believe she is cheating on you, Alpha Xavier," I added, prompting him to storm back toward me.Fearfully, I stood up from the bed as he approached me. When he reached me, he grabbed me by the neck, pulling me closer to him."What did you just say, hun?" he muttered, clenching his jaw and tightening his grip arou

    ~Xavier~ I stood in front of the door, anticipating her emergence, completely disregarding Fabian due to my intense fury.Alison confessed to me that she was indeed involved with someone else, expressing her remorse. However, my anger consumed me, rendering me unable to listen to her. Instead, a strong urge compelled me to take a walk around the house with Timbre to further explore her abilities.As she stepped out of the room, I pondered, "Does vision constitute her sole power, or does she possess more hidden abilities?"Surprised, her gaze locked onto mine. "Are we really going for a walk around the house?" she inquired as she approached me.I seized her hand and started pulling her along. "You're a witch. If you could perceive that Alison was unfaithful to me, then this should be no issue," I declared as I stormed towards the room where my sister's belongings were stored."Wait...

I asked, feigning ignorance of his question."Why was Alison claiming that you were all over Xavier? What happened?" he pressed."Nothing happened, Fabian. You know how Alison can be. We entered that room, and Xavier's panic episodes resurfaced. I had to intervene and that's when she assumed we had become close. Did she expect me to keep my distance and merely calm him down from afar?" I explained, shaking my head in frustration as I sat on the bed.He released a sigh as he approached me. "Alison can be quite irrational at times. She must have taken out her frustration on you, being in such a vulnerable position.""Yes, definitely," I replied, lowering my head."Don't worry, Timbre. It will all be over tonight," he said, causing me to abruptly look at him."What do you mean by 'it

After a few minutes of silence to honor the deceased, the pack started howling.As they howled, I turned to leave and noticed Fabian approaching me."How are you holding up?" he asked, causing me to let out a sigh."I'm not sure. I'm still worried about why this had to happen right after my father's death. I don't want my leadership to be seen as bad luck," I replied with concern."Come on, Xavier. No one would ever think that. This is an unfortunate event that hasn't happened before. Perhaps it was meant to be, so don't dwell on it too much.""So, that's it? We acknowledge t

  • The Lone Wolf Is Mine    The Sacrifice

    The night was thick with tension, the air sharp with the scent of fear and uncertainty. Timbre stood at the edge of the clearing, the full moon casting an ethereal glow over the pack. Shadows danced among the trees, whispering ancient truths she had only begun to understand. Her fingers trembled as she traced the lines of energy that pulsed beneath her skin—an energy that now felt foreign, even to her. She had spent the last few days learning to harness the ancient power within her, with Alison guiding her every step of the way. But tonight, she faced the impossible truth. In order to save Xavier, in order to save herself, she would have to let go of the very thing that now made her whole.The pack gathered around her, their eyes full of suspicion, fear, and something else—hope. They knew Xavier was close to breaking, his episodes growing more violent with each passing day. The Alpha they once revered as an untouchable force of nature had been reduced to a shadow of himself, his mind t

  • The Lone Wolf Is Mine    The trial

    The weight of the revelations still hung heavily on Timbre’s shoulders as she made her way back to the main hall, her mind spinning with the images she had seen in the vision. The rise and fall of the forgotten wolves played over and over again in her head, each scene more haunting than the last. The echo of their destruction, the devastation they had wrought upon the land, clung to her thoughts like a persistent shadow. She couldn’t help but wonder: would she follow the same path as her ancestors, consumed by the power that now thrummed through her veins? Or would she be able to control it, to wield it without falling prey to its destructive potential?As she entered the hall, she was greeted by Xavier, who stood at the far end of the room. His tall, imposing figure radiated authority, but there was a softness in his eyes when they landed on her. He had been waiting for her.“Timbre,” he said, his voice calm but laced with concern. “Alison told me what happened. You saw them, didn’t yo

    The days that followed were a blur of intense training and preparation. Timbre could feel the weight of the power inside her growing stronger with each passing moment, as if the ancient energy was slowly waking up, stretching its limbs after centuries of sleep. But despite the growing intensity, she still had no idea how to control it.Alison had taken the lead in guiding her, bringing forth old texts and artifacts the pack had kept hidden for generations. The forgotten wolves were an enigma, even to the most learned among the council. Their legacy was shrouded in mystery, with only fragments of stories passed down through whispers and shadows. But what was clear was that they were beings of immense power, beings who had once stood at the top of the natural order before their fall.“The forgotten wolves weren’t just feared for their strength,” Alison explained one evening, her voice quiet but firm as they sat in a secluded part of the pack’s vast library. Scrolls and ancient manuscripts

  • The Lone Wolf Is Mine    The councils warning

    By the time Timbre reached the grand hall, dusk had already settled over the pack’s territory, painting the sky in hues of deep purple and grey. The oppressive weight of her encounter in the forest clung to her like a second skin, and though her limbs felt leaden with exhaustion, she knew there was no time to rest. Her steps were purposeful as she crossed the clearing toward the hall, though her heart thundered with uncertainty.Inside, the council members had gathered, their faces etched with concern. The air was thick with tension, a palpable unease rippling through the room. Xavier sat at the head of the long wooden table, his golden eyes fixed on her the moment she entered. He looked stronger, more present than he had in days, but there was still a shadow behind his gaze—an echo of the darkness that had been consuming him. Alison stood beside him, her silver eyes studying Timbre with a mixture of worry and curiosity.Timbre hesitated only for a moment before stepping further into th

  • The Lone Wolf Is Mine    whispers in the dark

    The morning sun filtered weakly through the dense canopy of trees as Timbre made her way toward the outskirts of the pack’s territory. After the intensity of the previous night, she needed space—space to breathe, space to think, and space to figure out what the power inside her was truly capable of. Her thoughts were a jumble of confusion and fear, swirling in a tempest that wouldn’t let up.She wasn’t just Timbre the lone wolf anymore. She was something tied to the forgotten wolves, beings who had once wielded untold power but had been erased from history. It was as though the very ground she walked on was shifting beneath her feet, and she didn’t know how to stop it.The forest was quiet this morning, unnervingly so. Normally, birds would sing in the trees, and the rustle of small creatures moving about would fill the air, but today, there was nothing. The silence unnerved her, and she found herself glancing over her shoulder more than once.She hadn’t gone far when she felt it—a prese

    The quiet that followed their shared connection was unsettling, like the eerie calm after a storm. Timbre remained seated beside Xavier, her hand still in his. She could feel the bond between them, stronger now, more intense than before. It was a living, breathing thing, and yet she couldn’t fully understand it. The depth of it frightened her. This was no ordinary mate bond, and the power she had drawn from it had barely scratched the surface.Xavier looked at her, his golden eyes filled with a mixture of relief and wariness. He shifted on the bed, slowly sitting up as if testing his strength, and Timbre quickly moved to support him, her grip tightening around his hand.“I’m fine,” he muttered, though his voice was still raspy. “Whatever you did, it’s like you pulled me back from… something dark. I can feel it—I'm not completely free of it yet, but I can think clearly again.”Timbre swallowed hard, her pulse racing. “I don’t know what happened either,” she admitted, her voice soft. “I fe

    Timbre stood at the edge of the cliff, her heart racing in time with the powerful winds whipping around her. The ancient energy coursing through her veins had been restless all day, urging her toward something unknown. Beneath her, the expanse of the forest stretched endlessly, the faint glow of Xavier's pack settlement just visible in the distance. She closed her eyes, drawing in a deep breath. The air felt charged with magic, much like the energy within her, swirling, growing, and waiting to be harnessed.She had come to this cliff to find peace, to clear her mind, but instead, the pressure inside her only intensified. The bond she shared with Xavier was like a heavy weight, one that pulled at her, reminding her that she wasn’t alone anymore. The thought of him—strong, commanding, yet fragile in a way no one else saw—stirred something deep within her. He had changed since their first meeting, and so had she. But was she truly ready for the responsibility of the bond, and the power it

  • The Lone Wolf Is Mine    Unknown fate

    The forest felt alive as Timbre stood at the center of the clearing, the energy coursing through her veins unlike anything she had ever experienced. It was as if the earth beneath her feet pulsed in rhythm with her heart, and the air around her buzzed with an electric charge. Her senses heightened—every rustle of the leaves, every distant howl of the wolves, every whisper of the wind seemed magnified tenfold. The power within her was vast, untamed, but for the first time, it did not feel like something to fear. It felt like an extension of herself.Alison watched her carefully, her eyes narrowing as she studied the changes taking place. The power that Timbre was channeling was ancient, older than the pack, older than any of the wolves in their realm. And now it was awake, coiling and uncoiling like a serpent within her.“Good,” Alison murmured, breaking the silence. “You’re in control.”Timbre opened her eyes slowly, exhaling in relief. “It doesn’t feel as wild anymore,” she admitted, he

    Timbre stood at the edge of the forest, the moonlight filtering through the tall trees and casting eerie shadows on the ground. Her chest heaved with labored breaths, her mind still buzzing with the intensity of the power that had surged through her earlier. It had been weeks since she had discovered that she was not merely a lone wolf but something far more ancient and powerful. The realization still unsettled her, and each day, the weight of what she had become pressed down harder on her shoulders.She glanced behind her, feeling the presence of the pack looming in the distance. Even though they were far enough away that she could not see them, she knew they were watching her, waiting. Xavier's pack had been on edge ever since the night she had been captured, and now, with Xavier himself on the brink of a mysterious ailment, the tension was palpable. Her connection to him was undeniable, something she could no longer deny or fight. He was part of her now, inextricably linked to the p
