Exalia's POV

The weight of urgency seemed permeable around the clinic, as smells of herbs and blood filled the air.

The clinic was bustling with life and death likewise, with clamors and cries of piercing through the air sharply.

Women clutched their children tightly, with faces covered in blood, dust and tears, each of them having a look of desperation in their pale faces.

Even men were no different, no one pretended to be strong, as they conveyed their fear, grief, and pleas in the most direct way.

“Why aren't you attending to my husband? He's dying!” A woman wailed painfully as she clenched the arms of a young man, who was making his way over.

“Madam, please wait, we will attend to each one of you.” The man tried to placate her gently, but his smile was forced.

They don't even have the cure, so how could they attend to them? He's merely trying to console her. The woman endeavored to grab him again, but he quickly slipped away from her hold.

The young man rushed out of the clinic,

    Exalia’s POVI felt like the world had gone quiet, even as the cries and pleas of people filled the clinic around us. Old man Harrick’s words echoed in my mind, over and over. I might be the cure.A strange chill went down my spine as I tried to process it. “Wait... me?” I asked, pointing a shaky finger at my own chest. “Are you saying I could cure them?”Old man Harrick’s gaze was serious, with a hint of sadness. He nodded. “Yes, Exalia. I believe you hold the answer to this sickness.”Around us, whispers started immediately, sharp and cutting.“What’s this nonsense?” Lucia, one of the pack’s Lunas, scoffed from the back. “How could she, of all people, have the cure?”Others were frowning, shaking their heads in disbelief. I felt my heart sink as a few people murmured, “We’re just wasting time here.”“Have you all lost your minds?” Another voice chimed in. “People are dying, and you’re telling us she is the answer?”I felt doubt and embarrassment rising within me, hot and thick. I co

    Axel's POV.The tension in the room was thick, almost stifling. I could feel the weight of everyone’s eyes on me, but I kept my gaze locked on the old Physician. His words still rang in my head, leaving me shaken. Exalia, the cure? How could that be possible? It didn’t make sense, yet something in his expression told me he believed every word.“Alpha Axel,” the Physician said again, softer this time. “Perhaps we should discuss this in private?”A murmur of disbelief swept through the crowd, and someone scoffed, “Private? What does he mean by that? We all deserve to know!”More voices chimed in, demanding answers. I didn’t blame them; this disease had devastated us all, and they were desperate for hope. But the old man simply shook his head, a steely resolve in his eyes.“This is a delicate matter,” he said firmly. “Not something to be discussed in public without careful consideration.”I could sense the growing frustration around us, but I also knew the old man wouldn’t bend. After a

    Axel’s POV.The Physician’s words kept ringing in my ears. The illness was infectious, and the only hope for a cure lay in Exalia's blood. My gut twisted at the thought of her giving so much of it—enough to heal, but at what cost? I couldn't bear to see her suffer any more than she already had.I ran a hand through my hair, pacing back and forth as I tried to gather my thoughts. The situation had escalated too quickly, and the weight of the pack’s suffering was pressing down on me. Each day, more were infected, and the healer’s methods had failed. Exalia was our last hope, but the cost of her help… it was too great.“Is it really the only way?” I asked, my voice low with frustration.The Physician nodded grimly. “Yes, Alpha. Her blood carries a unique vitality that could counter the illness, but it will take a significant amount. Enough to infuse the antidote with the strength it needs.”I clenched my fists, feeling a surge of helplessness. I hated this. I hated how powerless I felt,

    Alex POV;“Oh, Moon Goddess!” The old man exclaimed, his trembling hands checking the pulse of one of the infected children. His face was pale with worry.Beside him, Exalia moved quickly, her steps deliberate but heavy with exhaustion. Even after giving her blood—the one thing that should have saved them—it hadn’t worked. The kids were getting worse, and so was she.“Kitten, it’s time for you to stop. You need to sleep,” I said firmly, my voice gentle but insistent. “Nothing is working, and you’re overdoing it.”She didn’t even glance at me. Her focus was entirely on the old man and the children, her hands trembling as she checked the kids’ temperature and pulse.“Exalia!” I barked, sharper this time, frustration spilling into my voice. She froze mid-step, her back straightening before she turned to face me.Her eyes were fierce, her exhaustion and desperation making her voice crack. “Are you heartless?” she snapped. “I know this disease is infectious, Alex, but that doesn’t mean I c

    Alex POV.A week has passed, and this strange illness that has befallen us hasn't stopped. We found a way to hold it back by keeping strict boundaries.The sick ones were taken to a refuge where they had to be kept isolated.However, Exalia and the old man left the pack in search of something that could hold the sickness off.I sat in my office, my face not a pleasing sight to behold.“Alpha,” my Beta said, and I sighed, turning my attention to him.“It’s been two days since Miss Exalia left, and there has been no communication—nothing! The infected numbers are increasing. Yesterday, 50 more kids got infected!” he reported, and I growled. Not from anger, but from a weakness I never knew I had.I slammed the pen down on my desk, frustration boiling in my chest. The reports weren’t adding up, and no matter how much I tried to focus, my mind kept drifting back to the chaos outside these walls. The pack was falling apart, and I had no answers.“Moon Goddess, I can’t take this anymore!” I

    Exalia; I stood there, unsure of what to say as the old man’s words echoed in the quiet room. “Well, it seems that there’s no cure after all,” he muttered, his tone heavy with defeat. I could feel the weight of his disappointment in the air, like a suffocating fog. Alex, standing beside me, let out a deep sigh, his gaze distant and unreadable. We had returned just a few days ago, but the sight before us was something I couldn’t have imagined in my worst nightmares. The village was a scene of utter devastation. The air was thick with grief. Mothers, young girls, and old men were crying, their voices breaking as they begged for help. The illness was sweeping through the village like wildfire, claiming anyone it touched, and the sight of it made my heart ache. Was this what the Moon Goddess meant by testing me? I closed my eyes briefly, trying to steady my thoughts, but they were scattered. There had to be something I could do

    Alex’s POV.I stood anxiously as the guards escorted another infected adult into the room. His body was riddled with boils, grotesque and pulsating, a haunting reminder of the disease that plagued us. The guards ensured he stayed far from the rest of the uninfected, their spears glinting with readiness.“Exalia… are you ready?” Harrick’s voice cut through the tense silence, his expression unwavering.She nodded firmly, her gaze locking with mine. Her confidence faltered for a moment, but I gave her a reassuring smile, silently telling her she could do this.Exalia approached the man, placing her hands firmly on his shoulders. Her eyes shut tightly as she drew on her energy, her body trembling with the effort. Then it happened—a low, guttural growl tore from her lips, sending shivers racing down my spine.Her wolf was growing stronger. I could feel it. Being her mate, I was attuned to her every shift, her every surge of power. A strange warmth coursed through me, almost as if I were te

Once I finished showering, I wrapped myself in a towel and made my way to my room. But I froze in my tracks when I saw him. Alpha Alex. He was leaning casually against the doorframe, his piercing gaze fixed on me like I was his next conquest. Those eyes… they always managed to unravel something deep inside me. “Alpha Alex…” I started, my voice trailing off. He didn’t respond right away. Instead, his lips curved into that infuriatingly charming smile as he stepped closer, his presence overpowering. “You did amazing today,” he murmured, his voice a velvety whisper in my ear. My wolf purred at his praise, betraying me as her excitement surged. She was far too drawn to him, and it made me uneas

    Exalia’s pov As Eldric told us his story, we listened, well i listened attentively, each word he said hit my consciousness and made me wonder. With the way he talked and told the story, every living thing around us seemed to listen too. From the birds chirping on the trees to even the forest trees, they all seemed to listen to Eldric’s tale. From the way the leaves rustled when he spoke to the whispering of the winds, you would know that they all listened and payed attention. Eldric paused for a few seconds and continued his story. “The legendary White Wolves you all hear about they’re not a fable or a myth, they’re not a folklore or folktale they’re real life. They were our ancestors, and they were more than just leaders, they’re more than anything you have ever heard about them before now; The White Wolves were the ancient gate keepers of balance in the entire werewolf kindred, the guardians of nature's inabitrary laws. But just like any other dynasty in the history, there w

I could see that some of them seemed to agree with Eldric’s approach to the issue, meanwhile others seemed to look at me with an expression I could call skepticism.Alex took my hands in his hands and his grip upon me was very very firm and reassuring. “If Exalia is going then I’m going with her, I go too and that’s on period. It’s either we stand together, or we gladly stand against you.”Eldric’s gaze finally for the first time moved from me to Alex, and he seemed to be appraising him. “Very well, Alpha, no problem at all since that’s your decision. Then we shall see if unity can truly be forged from this division. But you people should be warned, because I must say that the path ahead will definitely come with trials. These trials will test the bonds of pack and lineage too, and I’m very serious about it.”Alpha Alex stared at Eldridge, but he didn’t

    Alex’s POV I stood in front of the White Tribe Elders, keeping my voice steady. “If Exalia is going to be your Lunari, you’ll have to accept my terms.” One of the Elders frowned. “And what are these terms, Alpha Alex?” I didn’t hesitate. “You’ll let her stay here for a week. During that time, she will become my legal wife and the Luna of this pack. After that, she can return to your White Tribe pack, but only if this condition is met.” The Elders looked at one another, their discontent clear. “Ridiculous,” one of them snapped. “The Lunari must mate with a White Tribe wolf if she is to return. This is the only acceptable path.” “Then no one is taking her from me,” I replied firmly. Another Elder shook his head. “This is absurd. Tradition dictates that she must choose one of us.” Exalia, standing beside me, spoke up. “I won’t reject Alex. You all know this. He’s my mate, and I won’t go against that bond.” I gripped her hand, feeling the strength in her words. “And I won’t reje

    Exalia Pov That night, I spoke with Alex. “If I go with them, will you come with me?” I asked. He looked conflicted. “I can’t leave the pack,” he said. “But I won’t let them hurt you.” I realized I couldn’t ask Alex to choose between me and his responsibilities. The decision had to be mine alone. The next morning, I met with the pack council. “I’ll go with the Lunari,” I said, my voice steady. “But on one condition—they leave the pack alone.” Alex’s eyes burned with anger. “You’re not going anywhere without me,” he said. “You have to stay,” I replied. “The pack needs you.” “And I need you.” He said, holding out my hands. I shook out my head, moving backwards. “This isn't right. “ I muttered and held my cheeks, looking straight until my eyes. “I love you okay…and I'm doing everything in my power to keep our love bond.” “I understand you. But you can't stop me from being who I'm supposed to be. For the moon goddess sake. I'm supposed to be a Lunari. No one in the pack acknow

    Exalia’s pov The rest of the night, no one slept at all, we spent it in preparation and training and this training was not only physical, it was also mental training. I learned from Isolde about the lore of the white wolf, i learned about the legend and the power that dwelled within me that I had just started to understand.As the dawn drew nearer and nearer I stood by myself and I watched as the first ray of sunlight touched the land. There were a lot of emotions in my heart and it pounded and pounderd.Emotions like fear, determination, insecurity and curiosity. I was at the brink of stepping into the unknown and this wasn’t just about confrontation of a tribe but uncovering truths about myself , fate and Destiny.As the day broke, i spoke positive words to myself and told myself I was going to conquer.The kingdom soon became a fortess of tension and uncertainty as the sun rose high in the sky.Alpha Alex had called for an emergency meeting as the tribe’s elders were visiting our

I loved him so much . Isolde came in and joined us, her face was stiff with strength and determination and she advised us. “See, we need to set up a plan at once, this was not an attack but it was a message. These people know exactly what they’re doing. They want to test how we can withstand what they just did and we need to now show them we are better and stronger and we can destroy them.” The next few days was spent in hard training and preparation. We didn't just train for combat, we also trained for diplomacy. Isolde started to teach me about the ancient rites of the forefathers, she taught me about the lore of our kind and this wasn’t just for me to fight, but for me to become a great leader in future. Now, me chal

The weird old woman smiled, it was kind of like a knowing and sad smile, her face became sober as if she was losing all hope. “Exalia child, something is coming, and that something will require you to be fully prepared and be able to make use of your powers in ways that you yourself have not even thought about.” She looked at us before continuing, “all I offer is to teach you, I’m an old woman and I have no intention of watching a kingdom get destroyed because a little girl couldn’t use her powers.” Alpha Alex kept on being unsure and his skepticism was very very obvious. “Give us a reason why we believe you won’t betray us immediately you get what you want?” He asked, a sign of authority and responsibility in his thick voice. Isolde’s eyes became calm and softened up a bit, and I felt it was in acknowledgement of his duty as an Alpha. “Well, let me tell you that I have a lot more to lose if this child falls to the great evil that is coming. And I’m not lik

    Exalia’s pov.The next morning came very fast, and life definitely went on as usual. I got up from my bed and started my normal early morning routine which included saying my prayers, after that I would proceed to brushing my teeth, and then taking my bath. There was always something about Fridays, maybe something special I wouldn't say for sure but I lived Fridays. I didn’t like Fridays because of anything in particular at all, It’s just that it was the closest day to the weekend and all work would close earlier on Fridays. The sun had not fully risen, but the skies were getting bright and it was almost dawn. I stepped out of my room into the crisp air of the morning. “Good morning My lady,” dear Mabel greeted me and bowed politely. Her voice was so sweet and beautiful, as If it carried the warmth of the approaching early morning sun. “Hey Mabel dear,” I’m so happy to see you this morning.” I said with a smile on my face and I gave her a friendly pat on her chest.“My la
