It was mid-afternoon when Alpha Dalton and his companions arrived at their pack. He had already called his beta and asked him to inform all the senior officers of the pack about an urgent and impromptu meeting with them as soon as he got back.

Immediately he arrived at the Riverdale pack, Dalton strode into the council chamber with the elders that accompanied him to the Hollow pack, he wore a grim expression as he took his seat at the head of the long oak table. The room was already filled with the elders of his pack, as well as his Beta, Humphrey, and Gamma, Tobias including the head of the pack patrol.

He took his seat at the head of the long wooden table, fingers steepling as he exhaled slowly. “I won’t waste your time,” he began, his voice firm, cutting through the murmurs. “The meeting with Alpha Liam was a disaster. He has unilaterally decided to cancel our long-standing contract without reason. I don’t need to tell you what that means.”

That kind of recklessness isn’t just di

    The office was silent, except for the ornate grandfather clock ticking in the corner. Liam sat behind his heavy mahogany desk, his fingers drumming absently against the polished surface. The detective sat across from him, he kept a poker face as he delivered the news."Daniella has a child," the detective said simply. "A little girl. Almost four years old. Her name is Sophie. She was born abroad, Paris precisely."The words struck Liam like a physical blow. He stiffened, his mind momentarily blank as he tried to process the information. His breath hitched slightly, but he masked his reaction well, forcing himself to maintain a neutral expression."A child?" he repeated, his voice quiet, almost disbelieving. Liam finally forced himself to look up. “Are you certain?” His voice came out strained, raw.The detective nodded, his expression unreadable. “The records are solid. Birth certificate, hospital documents. She was born abroad, just as I said.”Liam swallowed hard. “And the father?”

    Liam shrugged into his coat and stepped out of his office, running a hand through his already tousled hair. His driver approached, opening the car door as per routine, but Liam shook his head."No need, I’ll drive myself tonight," he said, his voice clipped, betraying his mood.The driver hesitated, but with a respectful nod, he stepped back. Liam climbed into his black Honda Jeep, gripping the steering wheel with a quiet sigh. This car—this specific car—had once meant something to Daniella. She’d always preferred riding in it over his other luxurious cars, laughing about how smooth the drive was, how it made her feel free. “I don’t know why, but I really like this one,” she had mused, leaning back in the passenger seat. “It suits you.”He had always ignored her and would usually take another car to undermine her whenever she made the remark.He exhaled sharply, pushing the thought aside. He had no right to dwell on the past—not when he had spent so many years making sure it stayed b

    Daniella’s fingers curled into fists at her sides, her entire body thrumming with barely restrained fury. How dare he? How dare Liam Garvalle stand there, after all these years, and have the audacity to ask if Sophie was his child? His child?A bitter, humorless laugh clawed its way up her throat as she leveled him with a glare that could have burned through steel. “Are you serious?” Her voice, low and dangerous, wavered only slightly. “You—” she took a step forward, her heels grinding into the pavement, “—who never once acknowledged me as anything more than an afterthought? You, who pretended I was invisible in front of your peers, who never had the decency to call what we had a relationship?” Her breath hitched, but she forced herself to keep going, her voice rising with each syllable. “And now, after years of silence, after breaking me in ways I didn’t even know were possible, you think you have the right to stand in front of me and ask about my daughter?”Liam’s jaw tightened, his

    Liam slumped in the grand leather armchair in his study, a half-empty bottle hanging from his hand, its contents sloshing dangerously close to spilling onto the carpet. His tie had been loosened, his shirt unbuttoned, and his once-pristine suit was wrinkled beyond repair. His usually sharp, calculating gaze was now clouded, unfocused.Matilda stood in the doorway, arms crossed, eyes blazing with barely concealed fury as she took in his disheveled form. The powerful Alpha heir, reduced to this—a pathetic, drunken mess, drowning in his own misery over a woman who was beneath him in every conceivable way. It disgusted her.Liam’s voice broke through the silence, a bitter, slurred mumble. “How could she do this to me? How could she look me in the eye for all those years… and lie?” He let out a harsh laugh, devoid of humor. “Sophie’s not mine? That’s a bloody joke.” He took another swig from the bottle, wincing as the alcohol burned his throat. “She betrayed me. Lied to me. All those times

    The shrill ringing of his phone cut through the oppressive silence. He stared at it for a moment, his mother’s name flashing on the screen. With a sigh, he pressed the answer button and brought the phone to his ear."Liam," his mother’s voice was sharp, clipped with barely restrained fury. "I take it you've seen the papers?"Alpha Liam said nothing. He had no words, no strength to argue."Of course you have. Everyone has. The Garvalle name dragged through the mud because of that—that woman." The venom in her voice was palpable. "I always knew she was trouble. A two-timing gold-digger with no morals, no honor. And you—blind and foolish enough to believe she ever cared about you."Liam inhaled deeply, but still, he said nothing. His fingers curled into a fist on the desk, his knuckles turning white. He had no patience for this.His mother, undeterred, pressed on. “She played you, Liam. She had her sights set on your status, on your wealth. And all the while, she was sneaking around wit

    Jessica stretched lazily, letting out a yawn as she placed her phone down. “Matilda, darling, let’s have a late breakfast,” she said. “I am famished, and i missed breakfast as I was in a hurry to get here before my brother left for work.”Matilda smirked. “Of course. I always have time for family.” She picked up her keys, twirling them between her fingers. “Let’s take my car. I feel like driving today.”Jessica nodded approvingly as they stepped out. Matilda’s sleek black car sat waiting in the driveway, polished to perfection. She slipped into the driver’s seat effortlessly, revving the engine as Jessica settled in beside her.As they cruised down the road, they remained in comfortable silence. That was, until they passed a particular store. Matilda slowed the car, a twisted smile creeping onto her lips. “Look, Jessica,” she drawled, tilting her head towards the elegant storefront. “Daniella’s precious little dream. The place she thought would solidify her pathetic independence.”Jes

    The atmosphere inside Joshhill stores had come back to normalcy, a stark contrast to the earlier chaos stirred by Matilda and Jessica. The store employees, though initially shaken, had resumed their tasks with quiet diligence, assisting customers with the precision and warmth that Daniella demanded of her staff. Business was thriving despite the uninvited spectacle from earlier, and for a brief moment, Daniella allowed herself to believe that the day could end without further incident.Then, the doors swung open, and a group of men entered, clad in stiff suits with badges pinned to their lapels. Their expressions were as rigid as their posture. The room quieted as the staff and customers turned to observe the newcomers. One of the senior staff members, noticing them first, exchanged a wary glance with another employee before stepping forward.“Can I help you?” the store manager Gregory asked, his voice measured.They produced an identification badge. “We’re from the State Quality Con

    Daniella stormed through the grand entrance of Garvalle Enterprises, her heels clicking sharply against the marble floors. Heads turned, and hushed whispers rippled through the office as employees, both new and old, recognized her. She didn’t pause to acknowledge them. She had no time for pleasantries or awkward reunions. There was only one thing on her mind—Liam.Liam’s assistant, Anna, rose abruptly from her desk, eyes widening in alarm. “Miss Thornhill—”“Move,” Daniella ordered, not even breaking her stride.Anna hesitated, but before she could protest, Daniella had already pushed open the heavy mahogany doors to Liam’s office.The force of her entrance sent a stack of neatly arranged documents fluttering to the ground.Liam looked up, startled. For a fleeting moment, shock flickered in his piercing eyes, but it was gone just as quickly, masked by a slow, knowing smirk. He leaned back in his chair, fingers steepled under his chin, exuding the infuriating arrogance that made Danie

    The ceremony had reached its climax. The sacred vows had been spoken, and Matilda now stood beside Liam as the official Luna of the Hollow Pack. A hush had settled over the congregation as they waited fr their alpha to speak.Alpha Liam, stoic as ever, took a step forward and addressed the gathered pack. His voice, deep and authoritative, carried over the sea of faces, each member standing in respectful formation before the Moon Goddess Shrine.“I want to thank you all for your loyalty and dedication to our pack,” Liam said, his gaze sweeping across the crowd. “It is through your hard work, resilience, and unity that we have remained strong. The Hollow Pack has thrived because of its people, and I expect that strength to continue.”A roar of approval erupted from the crowd, chants of “Alpha Liam” ringing through the night as the pack clapped and howled in solidarity. The moment was powerful, a show of devotion to their leader, their alpha. But then, Liam turned to Matilda and gestured

    The day of the Luna ceremony arrived with the first golden rays of the morning sun stretching across the Hollow Pack’s vast lands. It was a day steeped in history, one that had been celebrated for centuries in honor of the mate chosen to stand beside the Alpha, to bring unity, strength, and prosperity to the pack.The venue had been prepared days in advance, set before the sacred Moon Goddess Shrine, a towering marble structure veined with silver, standing proudly in the heart of the pack's sacred grounds. The shrine was built centuries ago by the ancestors, honoring the divine spirit that guided their kind. It was a place of reverence, surrounded by towering oak trees, their gnarled roots pushing through the earth like the veins of time itself. A river ran nearby, its waters glistening like liquid silver under the light of the sun. Ancient symbols, carved deep into the shrine's stone walls, whispered of prosperity, fertility, and the unbreakable bond between mates.For generations, t

    The low hum of the pilot’s voice crackled through the cabin speakers."Ladies and gentlemen, we are beginning our descent into New York. Please fasten your seatbelts and prepare for landing."Matilda stirred from her slumber, groggy from the indulgences of the previous night. Her temples pulsed with the dull ache of too much champagne, too little sleep, and an overdose of self-satisfaction.Jane, ever the dutiful maid, hovered close, waiting for instructions."We’ll be landing soon, Ms Matilda," she said softly.Matilda let out a sigh, stretching before running her fingers through her slightly tousled golden curls."I need to change," she muttered, rubbing her tired eyes. "I refuse to step foot in New York looking anything less than spectacular.""Fetch my gold sequin dress. The one with the slit," she ordered, her voice slightly hoarse from the night of partying in Paris. Jane scrambled to retrieve the garment from the carry-on.Matilda’s movements were meticulous as she reapplied he

    Matilda sat across from Liam in his study, her manicured nails tapping rhythmically against the polished oak desk. She was dressed immaculately, as always, her emerald-green dress hugging her curves, her blonde hair cascading in perfect waves. A woman who knew the power of appearances."I’m going to Paris," she announced, a satisfied smirk playing on her lips.Liam, who had been reading over some pack documents, barely glanced up. "For what?"Matilda’s smirk deepened. "To get my Luna gown, of course. And the jewelry to match. I will not be wearing anything less than perfection for my ceremony."Liam exhaled, setting down the paper in his hand. "You could find a dress here. We have designers—"She scoffed. "In this town? Please. The future Luna of the Hollow Pack deserves the best. And that means the fashion houses of Paris, not some local seamstress who stitches prom dresses."Liam studied her for a moment. He was a man of few words, but Matilda could see the irritation flickering in

    After Mrs Garvalles's speech, Alpha liam addressed his subordinates again.“Thank you all for being here,” he said, his voice carrying over the sea of faces. “I know these past few weeks have been trying, but I want you all to know that as your Alpha, my top priority is the safety and well-being of this pack. Tonight, we have taken an important step forward, and I trust that we will continue to stand together. Now, I invite you all to head to the field for a light refreshment.”A roar of excitement erupted from the pack, the tension that had filled the air dissipating into laughter and chatter. The crowd slowly began to disperse, heading towards the open field where tables had been set up with food and drinks under the soft glow of overhead lights.As Liam turned to step down from the stage, the elders of the pack approached Mrs. Garvalle, their expressions a mixture of solemnity and gratitude.“Queen Mother,” Elder Harris began, his voice warm and filled with gratitude, “we thank you

    The grand Hall of the Garvalle Pack was almost filled to the brim, the murmuring of voices of pack members echoed off the high wooden beams. Wolves of all ranks including the warriors, healers, scouts, elders, and even the civilians, all stood together, waiting with bated breath. It was rare for Alpha Liam to call for a full pack gathering, and even rarer that it was held under such tense circumstances. The scent of burning wood from the distant farmland still lingered in the air, a stark reminder of the chaos that had erupted not long ago.Liam stood on the elevated stage, his commanding presence highlighted by the bright overhead lights illuminating the hall. His sharp blue eyes swept over the pack, noting the wary expressions, the unspoken fears, and the silent accusations simmering beneath the surface. He knew there were whispers—rumors of internal discord, of power struggles, of betrayals lurking in the dark corners of their home. It was time to put an end to it.Clearing his thr

    As the night stretched in the Alphas’ mansion. Liam stood in his office, his fingers pressing into the cool wood of his desk as he tried to organize his thoughts. Midnight was approaching, and with it, a conversation he had dreaded but could no longer avoid. He had sent a mind link to his mother earlier, requesting a private meeting. She had not questioned it, but he knew she had sensed the gravity of the matter. She was too seasoned, too intelligent not to recognize when something was deeply amiss.At precisely midnight, Liam made his way to her chambers. Liam inhaled deeply and made his way down the dimly lit corridor. His footsteps echoed slightly against the marble floors. He entered without knocking, knowing she would be waiting.His mother’s room was warm and elegant, the soft glow of the bedside lamp casting a golden hue across the polished furniture. Mrs. Garvalle sat on a velvet chair near the fireplace, a book resting open in her lap, though it was clear she had not been rea

    Murmurs passed through the elders. One of them, Elder Reginald, leaned forward. “This urgency better be justified, Alpha,” he said. “This better not be another political affair concerning—”“This is far beyond politics,” Liam cut in sharply, his patience thinning. “This is a direct attack on our pack.”A hush fell over the room.Liam took a breath, steadying himself before he spoke the words that would change everything. “The explosion today at the farmland was no accident. It was orchestrated by Alpha Seth.”Gasps rippled through the room. Some warriors exchanged alarmed glances, while others clenched their fists. The elders, however, remained still, their expressions darkening. They were wise enough to know that Seth had always been a dangerous man, but this was outright provocation.Elder Vaughn narrowed his eyes. “You are certain of this?”Liam nodded grimly. “He told me himself.”More murmurs. A few of the warriors visibly stiffened. Vaughn exhaled through his nose, his fingers t

    The phone rang twice before Beta Adam picked up, his voice sharp and alert. “Alpha, I was just about to call you. There’s a situation at the farmland—an explosion. I’m overseeing it now.”“I know,” Liam said, his voice tight. “Leave it and come to my office. Now.”There was a brief pause, the sounds of shouting and urgency in the background. “Alpha, with all due respect, this is serious. We need to assess the damage and—”“I said now, Adam,” Liam cut him off, his tone brooking no argument. “Hand it over to someone else. I need you here immediately.”His Beta hesitated for a second before exhaling sharply. “Understood. I’ll have Gamma Lucas take over.”Liam could hear Adam turning away from the chaos, issuing rapid orders. “Lucas, you’re in charge. Secure the perimeter, report any unusual findings, and make sure the fire doesn’t spread. Keep the warriors on high alert until I return.”Gamma Lucas’s voice crackled faintly over the line. “Understood. I’ll handle it.”Liam ended the call,
