Alpha Lorenzo

Today is the day. I can feel it in my bones. A new chapter for my pack, for me, and for Alexis. The Luna Crowning Ceremony is upon us, and excitement courses through my veins.

The sun rises lazily over the horizon, casting a golden glow over the pack grounds as I stand on the balcony, overlooking the sprawling domain that I govern. It’s a perfect day for a new beginning.

My heart pounds as I watch the courtyard below, pack members bustling about in preparation for the grand event. Various alphas from neighboring territories and guests from all corners of the supernatural world arrive, their cars and vehicles pulling up one after the other.

From my vantage point, I can see them dressed in their finest…some in formal attire, others adorned in traditional wear from their packs. The air hums with excitement and anticipation.

But no one feels that anticipation more than me.

I can’t help but smile as I turn away from the view and walk back into my room, glancing at myself i

    Unknown's POVConan rushed down the corridor, his mind a tangled mess of anxiety and urgency. His heart pounded as he weaved through the pack house, his thoughts consumed by Lorenzo’s sudden change. There had to be something more to this. It was impossible for Lorenzo to suddenly claim Alexis as his Luna when just days ago, his mind had been focused on finding Raelynn, his true mate. Something dark was at work, something beyond the realm of natural werewolf instincts.As Conan approached the dimly lit chamber where Queen Xylie had taken up temporary residence, he slowed his steps, gathering his thoughts. The Queen of Witches was known for her ancient wisdom, and if anyone could offer a solution to this madness, it was her. He knocked lightly on the door, his chest tightening with anticipation.“Come in,” a calm, velvety voice beckoned from within.Conan stepped inside to find Queen Xylie seated by a glowing fire, her long silver hair cascading down her back like a waterfall of moonl

    Unknown’s POVOnce the ceremony was over, the crowd began to disperse into the reception hall, where drinks and food awaited them. Conan felt numb as he followed the flow of the crowd, his mind clouded with frustration. A drink, he needed a drink. anything to numb the pain in his chest.He grabbed a bottle of whiskey off the bar and poured himself a handsome glass full. He brought it to his lips and smelled. something, something warm and sweet and intoxicating. His wolf stirred instantly, snapping to attention.Mate. Conan’s heart skipped a beat. He set the glass down and scanned the room, his eyes searching for the source of the scent. Then, he saw her.A woman stood near the edge of the room, her pink hair cascading down her back like silk. Her eyes were red like she had been crying and there was just this sadness that surrounded her that pulled at Conan's heart. He moved toward her instinctively, unable to resist the pull of the mate bond.When he reached her, he gently touched he

    Alpha LorenzoThe ceremony was over, and the night was lasting a long time. I went up to my room and just stood by the window and looked out into the darkness of the forest behind the pack house.My mind felt hazy, the events of the past few weeks a blur. The cheers of my pack still echoed in my ears, yet I felt nothing but emptiness.Alexis was somewhere behind me, changing out of her robe, I'm assuming. Her little steps I could hear, the sound of her clothes as she walked.I felt a stir of desire within me, but it wasn’t the overwhelming, all-consuming need that I should have felt for my Luna. Something was wrong. I think I just knew, but couldn't place it. My thoughts were slippery, like trying to hold onto water with my bare hands.Alexis voice called my name, "Lorenzo," in this soft, sultry tone. “Come to bed.”I turned to face her, my eyes taking in the sight of her. She looked beautiful, there was no denying that. Her long, dark hair flowed over her shoulders, and her eyes spar

    Alpha LorenzoI ended the call and looked around the room to see the mess I had made. What the hell was happening to me? Why did I feel so edgy, so quick to blow? Was it the pressure of being Alpha, or was it something more? Was Romeo right? Could Alexis really be an imposter?No. I shook my head, pushing the thought away. Alexis was my Luna, my mate. She couldn’t be an imposter. It was impossible. Romeo was wrong. He had to be.But as I stood there in the wreckage of my rage, a small voice in the back of my mind whispered, What if he’s right?I forced myself to ignore it, to focus on the task at hand. I had to clean up the mess, replace the perfume, and pretend that nothing had happened. Alexis couldn’t know. She couldn’t suspect that anything was wrong.But as I gathered the broken glass and mopped up the spilled perfume, I couldn’t shake the feeling that something was terribly, terribly wrong.So when the replacement perfume came I put it on the dresser too, in the exact same place

    Alpha LorenzoIt had been a few days since I smashed Alexis’s perfume bottles in a fit of rage. So I quickly changed it to the one that she apparently liked the best, and I hoped she wouldn't tell the difference. But what I hadn't expected was the complete change of scene that would ensue.The next morning, when Alexis walked into the room, her usual intoxicating scent…jasmine and honey…was gone. It had been changed to something else, something much less extraordinary, something that borders on mundane, nearly trivial.Well, a veil had been lifted from my eyes. The woman that had at one time mesmerized all of my senses now appeared. The idea terrified me, it chewed on the borders of my mind and I could not shake the doubts that had been lurking in the shadows of my consciousness ever since the ceremony.That was when I knew I needed answers. The weird variations in her aroma, the little differences in her actions, the sensation that something was just not right anymore could not be ig

    Alpha LorenzoIt's been a week since Alexis was incarcerated and I discovered the truth. A full week of searching and scouring every inch of our territory, and then some. The feeling of desperation claws at my insides, a gnawing ache that won’t go away no matter how many leads we chase, no matter how many faces I growl at in frustration. Every day without her feels like an eternity, every moment a fresh wound reopening. Max is restless, prowling just beneath the surface, ready to break free and tear apart anyone who gets in my way.I shouldn’t be here, pacing in my study with my phone clenched in my hand. I should be out there, tracking her down myself. But even alphas have duties, responsibilities, and meetings they can’t avoid. Today, it’s the damn council meeting, and if I don’t show up, there’ll be more questions than I’m prepared to answer. I need to keep up appearances. I need to make them believe everything is fine, that my world isn’t shattering around me piece by piece.“E

    RaelynnThe sun shone through the thick velvet curtains of our room and illuminated everything with a warm, golden light. The warmth of it kissed my skin, reminding me that this was no dream...this was my reality.A reality that only a few years ago, seemed like a world impossible to conceive, completely shattered into pieces that I would never be able to pick up. Yet here I am, so much stronger and smarter and more at peace than I have ever been in my life.As I lay in bed, listening to the soft rustling of the leaves outside and the distant chirping of birds welcoming the new day, I couldn’t help but reflect on how far I’ve come. The memories of my past, once sharp and painful, now seemed like faded shadows in the back of my mind.The pain of loss and betrayal, the paralyzing fear that I experienced during those days of darkness seemed like a dream…a nightmare that I had finally woken up from.My life had changed so much since those days. I thought of the darkness that had so nearly

    Alpha LorenzoI wait outside the door to the dungeon the cold stone walls closing in around me. My hear beats faster the rage just below the surface.I need to do this. For Raelynn. For my pack. For all those who have been tormented by the life of valentine and his warped disciples.The door squeaks and I enter the somewhat dark hallway. It is damp and musty in there, with the drip of water bouncing off the walls.The guards nod their heads to me, with a very serious look on their faces. They know why I’m here. They know what I’m about to do.Valentine's cell is all the way at the end of the dungeon, away from all the others. I would have wanted him alone, removed from the rest of his nasty little gang. The man deserves no comfort, no company. Not after everything he’s done.I stand before his cell holding the cold iron bars. Valentine sits in there, perched on a little bench with his hands cuffed together in front of him.The look of pride and arrogance is no longer there, but instea

    Alpha LorenzoWe step outside of the building and the heat from the fire engulfs us, and at that moment, I feel Raelynn's body drop from my arms. She's out of breath, out of energy, and I pick her up and carry her the remainder of the way.“Conan, take care of Valentine and his scientists, I shout over my shoulder as we make our way to the waiting SUVs. “Round them all up. No one gets away.”Conan nods, his expression grim. “You got it, Alpha. We’ll make sure they pay for what they’ve done.”I nod, my focus on Raelynn as I lay her gently in the back seat of one of the SUVs. She’s unconscious, her breathing shallow, and I feel a surge of panic. I can’t lose her. Not now.“Go! I shout to the driver, and the SUV speeds away from the burning building, the flames reflected in the rearview mirror. I cradle Raelynn in my arms, my heart beating hard against my chest.“We’re almost there, I whisper, brushing a strand of hair from her face. “Just hold on a little longer, love. You’re going to b

    Alpha LorenzoSo I pound my fist on the aluminum door as hard as I can, and I keep pounding and the door starts to cave in. Every hit vibrates up my arm, but I bite down on my tongue and continue. Raelynn is on the other side. I can feel her presence through our bond, faint but unmistakable.My entire body is on fire from the exertion, beads of sweat drip from my face into my eyes, but I will not give up. I can’t. Not when I’m this close. The dent in the door is minor, almost unnoticeable, but it is there. So I put all of my strength, and my anger, and my hopelessness into one last punch and I hope that it is.Then, without warning, a rush of warmth washes over the door. I yank my hand back, startled. The metal is red hot and I have to back up so I don't get burnt.I stare in disbelief as fire dances around the border of the door and the metal contorts and melts like some unseen force is wrenching it asunder.“What the hell…” I mutter, my eyes wide. This isn’t just fire; it’s somethin

    RaelynnI’ ve been planning this for weeks. The smallest mistakes could cost me everything, so I’ve waited, watching, studying every guard’s routine. I’ve observed their movements, noted their shifts, even the way they carry themselves when they think no one is looking.One guard, in particular, caught my eye…small, unassuming, always on edge as if the very walls were closing in on him. I could see it in his eyes, the fear, the sweat above his brow whenever he was around me. And that made him my target.Well, this morning he was on walking post by my cell and I just knew it was time. He did not even realize how easily he was being played with.The shadows that had been my friends in darkness reached out to take his thoughts, pushing his focus away. A ripple of my fingers and the shadows told him of distant cares and his mind floated just enough for me to move.I moved silently, my fingers deft and quick, slipping into his pocket as he turned away. The cold metal of the key against my
