**Twelve Years Ago**Fernanda’s POV"Mom, Dad, look!" I shouted, halfway up a tree. From my vantage point, I could see the vast expanse of our pack lands. My dad warned me to come down before he had to fetch me, teasingly implying that I had climbed too high.Suddenly, everything changed. In a matter of seconds, a group of rogue wolves encircled my parents, snapping and growling menacingly. My parents swiftly shifted into their wolf forms, trying to fend off the attackers. My dad courageously leaped onto the largest rogue, engaging in a fierce battle. But in that crucial moment, two of the rogues diverted their attention to my defenseless mom. Instinctively, my dad turned to protect her, momentarily diverting his focus.That split second became the turning point in my life, forever altering its course. The shattered bond of the mates overwhelmed my mom, leaving her vulnerable. Surrendering to the anguish, she allowed the two wolves to attack her, knowing that her soulmate was gone. "
**Fernanda’s POV**My alarm blares with its piercing sound, a reminder that it's already 4 am. If I don't rise promptly, I won't have time for my morning shower.As the designated caretaker for the pack, I bear the responsibility of cooking, cleaning, and any other tasks the Alpha and Luna deem necessary. If I let a slip of the tongue escape or fail to complete my duties, punishment awaits. The pack members hold nothing but animosity towards me, except for Helen, an Omega. Omegas, positioned at the bottom of the hierarchy, perform the same chores as I do but receive compensation and are spared from punishment. Some warriors safeguard the pack, including a Gamma and a Beta, who work closely with the Alpha and Luna.I swiftly shed my clothes and step under the comforting stream of hot water. Aware of the potential intrusion, I hurriedly shampoo my hair with the meager amount provided, rinsing it out before applying conditioner, allowing it to soak briefly. Hastily, I cleanse my body, an
**Sergio’s POV**I focused on the pleasurable sensations with the blonde beneath me, though her loud and needy demeanor grated on my nerves. She had been a childhood friend, always lingering around, and I occasionally indulged in her company. In her misguided belief, she thought she would become my mate and Luna, but little did she know that I had no interest in such a role. As the Alpha of a formidable pack in the Northeast of Las Noches, I neither sought nor needed a Luna by my side. When I came of age at 18, my father handed over the leadership of our pack to me, expecting that I would find a suitable mate who would assume the role of Luna. However, fate had a different plan in store, as my true mate turned out to be someone unexpected.My parents were remarkable individuals who raised me with wisdom and instilled strength within our pack. Building upon their foundation, I took our pack's power and influence to unprecedented heights. We commanded respect, and other packs sought al
**Fernanda’s POV**Alpha Draxler and his son Damian stormed into the room, instantly filling it with an oppressive atmosphere. I couldn't help but curse under my breath. This dreadful place had become a haunting nightmare for me, with its dark brown walls and a stained gray carpet that bore witness to my pain. It seemed like I was the only one who ever set foot in this room, enduring punishments that were meant only for me."Slave, your incompetence knows no bounds. You dare to create a mess at my breakfast table? Will you ever learn your place? I have no tolerance for lazy and useless slaves," Alpha Draxler bellowed, his voice dripping with disdain. The weight of his words hung heavily in the air, and I braced myself for the impending punishment."As your penalty, and perhaps to satisfy my sadistic desires, you will receive five lashes. In a rare act of mercy, I will allow you to choose the instrument of your torment. But make no mistake, Damian will be the one to administer your pun
**Sergio’s POV**After finishing my training session, which I enjoyed despite not being obligatory since Gamma Kevin handled it well, I made my way back to my room to shower before attending a party I had no interest in. My mother saw it as an opportunity for me to find a potential mate, but my ambitions lay elsewhere. I was determined to lead our pack to great heights and establish our dominance among all others.Upon opening the door to my room, I caught a familiar scent. It was Felicia. Surprised, I asked her, "What brings you here?"She replied, her voice filled with desire, "There's something about you when you return from training, all sweaty and powerful. It turns me on. I want to explore every inch of your sculpted abs, tracing my way down to your already aroused manhood."She approached me, dressed provocatively in a white see-through bra, matching thong, and elegant black stilettos. She knew exactly how to captivate me, and I could feel myself growing more excited. Allowing

*Sergio's POV*The hazy fog lifted from my consciousness, like a heavy curtain slowly ascending, revealing the stark reality around me. The battlefield, a chaotic tapestry of destruction, told a tale of the fierce confrontation that had transpired. My body felt strangely reinvigorated, the energy coursing through me like a revitalizing elixir. Yet, as my senses gradually came into focus, an invisible weight settled over my chest.I blinked, trying to make sense of the world awakening before me. The scent of damp earth and the metallic tang of blood permeated the air, a haunting symphony of war. It took me a moment to register Leo's voice echoing in my mind, the familiar timbre cutting through the disorienting haze."She's gone, Sergio. She performed the celestial rebirth which brought you back to life, but at the cost of hers. She truly loved you, bro."Leo's words hung in the air, a heavy truth that crashed over me like a tidal wave. My heart, once numb from the battle's aftermath, no
In the solitude of grief, I felt an unexpected presence behind me. It wasn't the mortal scent of Lycans; it was something that harmonized with the very essence of Nature itself. The energy surrounding this presence intensified with each passing second, casting a mysterious aura in the air. Curiosity, like a dormant flame, flickered to life within me.With Sergio's still form beside me, I turned around slowly to face the enigmatic force. The figure that materialized before me was ethereal, its demeanor transcending mortal boundaries. It held an otherworldly grace, as though it were a deity descended to the earthly realm. My senses tingled with an unfamiliar energy as I tried to comprehend the nature of this being.As I observed, I realized a peculiar similarity between its essence and mine. The realization dawned slowly, like a gentle sunrise. Was this figure my predecessor, a manifestation of celestial ancestry? The confusion swirling within my mind became a tempest of uncertainty.The
*Fernanda's POV*I lay there on the cold, unforgiving floor, my breaths coming in ragged gasps as I struggled to regain composure. Damian, the embodiment of malevolence, circled me like a vulture reveling in its imminent feast. He seemed amused by my vulnerability, his eyes gleaming with triumph. As he towered over me, I couldn't summon the strength to utter a single word."Catch your breath, Fernanda. We have all the time in the world," Damian mocked, a wicked grin etched across his face. The pain in my abdomen still pulsed, a constant reminder of the recent battle I had fought so desperately to survive."Cat got your tongue?" he taunted, oblivious to my silent suffering. I felt his strong grip on my throat, lifting me effortlessly. The world blurred around me as I choked on both physical and emotional pain. His words cut deeper than any physical wound."You shouldn't have escaped that night," Damian accused, his voice dripping with venom. "Now all the people you love will die because
Sergio's POV*The moon hung in the sky, casting an ethereal glow over the battlefield strewn with shadows of the combatants. Breathing heavily, I felt the weight of the shifting tides of the fight. Beside me, Charles and Trevor fought valiantly, their fur matted with sweat and blood. The stench of the ongoing battle lingered in the crisp night air.As we clashed with Draxler, the realization slowly crept upon me – stamina, that elusive fuel of strength, was depleting. A subtle exhaustion coursed through me, and my limbs began to protest. Glancing at Charles and Trevor, their struggles mirrored my own. We were warriors, but even warriors had limits.My lips parted, and a muttered realization escaped, almost a subconscious whisper to Leo, my faithful wolf companion. "Running out of stamina," I confessed quietly, as if sharing a secret with my loyal confidant. Leo's eyes gleamed with understanding, a silent acknowledgment of the shared burden we bore.Alpha Draxler, sensing our vulnerabil
Grinjo's fur bristled with confidence, and his red eyes bore into mine with a mix of arrogance and challenge. I couldn't help but feel a surge of adrenaline, my senses heightened in the primal dance of the battleground. The clash of our packs served as a chaotic backdrop, but in that moment, it was just Grinjo and me, two betas bound by loyalty and duty.He started the conversation, his deep growl carrying a hint of mockery, "You know, Jake, you've got so much potential. It's a shame you're throwing it all away for such a petty reason."I shot him a puzzled look, the words hanging in the air like a lingering challenge. "Petty reason? What's that supposed to mean?" I questioned, my fur prickling with curiosity.Grinjo's lips curled into a snarl, his gaze narrowing. "Protecting your Alpha's woman, that's what. You think that's worth risking everything for?"The accusation hung heavy between us, and I couldn't comprehend how safeguarding my Alpha's mate could be deemed petty. My loyalty w
Breaking the silence, Jake's voice reverberated through the night. "Which one of you wants to come at me first?" he challenged, his tone carrying the weight of authority. Grinjo, smirking with confidence, stepped forward, ready to accept the challenge. "Don't get so cocky now," he retorted. "You're still young and inexperienced. What makes you think you could take me alone, much less along with Damian? I think you're getting ahead of yourself, and it'll be my pleasure to put fools like you in your place."The tension between the two wolves simmered, the air thickening with the promise of impending confrontation. Grinjo, with a determined glint in his glowing red eyes, began the transformative process into his own wolf form. A massive ash wolf emerged, its red eyes gleaming in the moonlight. While as large as Jake, Grinjo lacked the same intimidating presence.Turning to Damian, Jake challenged him to join the impending clash. "And you? Aren't you going to shift? Or are you scared?" he
