In a world where everything is about loyalty, two young werewolves from warring packs must risk it all for a forbidden romance. It would be all too easy to go down the path of the hate to love trope, especially as Luca, the heir to the Lunari pack and Aria daughter of the Umbra alpha have been sworn to hate each other. But when their paths inadvertently collide, their passion ignites a spark that threatens to either destroy or redeem their family’s legacy. Will their love hold the keys to peace or spark sport of war?
View MoreGrabbing a piece of parchment, Luca quickly scribbled a message:Alpha Thane,Your daughter is planning to leave the pack. She is in danger. The Umbra Pack knows, and they are already preparing to intercept her. Stop her before it’s too late.A Friend.He folded the note carefully and sealed it. Then, he called for his most trusted scout, a young wolf named Elias.“Take this to Thane. Make sure he gets it. No one else can see it,” Luca ordered, his voice low and urgent.Elias nodded and disappeared into the night, moving swiftly through the shadows.In the Lunari PackThane sat in his study, going over some old maps when a knock came at his door. He looked up as one of his guards entered, handing him a small, crumpled note.“This was delivered in secret,” the guard said. “No one saw who left it.”Thane frowned as he took the letter. His sharp eyes scanned over the words, and his breath caught in his throat. His grip on the parchment tightened. Aria was leaving? His own daughter was ru
Luca stood frozen in the great hall, his mind racing. His father, Orion, had just revealed that he knew about Aria’s plans to leave the Lunari Pack. The words rang in Luca’s ears like a warning bell. How had he found out? Who had betrayed her?His heart pounded in his chest. He needed to warn her—but how? If he sent a messenger, his father would know. If he tried to leave, he would be followed. There was no safe way to reach her. He clenched his fists, frustration burning inside him. Aria had no idea what danger she was walking into, and now it was too risky for him to contact her.Meanwhile, Orion’s guards were already preparing. He had wasted no time in setting a plan in motion. Luca overheard their hushed conversations as they moved through the hallways, gathering weapons and making quiet arrangements. They were going to intercept Aria, to stop her before she got too far. But Luca knew his father well—this wasn’t just about stopping her. Orion was always looking for an advantage, a
In the heart of the Umbra Pack, tension was thick in the air. The great hall of the Alpha’s fortress was dimly lit, the flickering torches casting long, eerie shadows on the stone walls. The air smelled of burning wood and iron, a reminder of the power that ruled here. Alpha Orion, leader of the Umbra Pack and Luca’s father, sat on his massive throne-like chair, his fingers tapping impatiently against the armrest. His sharp, golden eyes glowed with irritation as he stared at the empty space before him. He had been waiting for news—important news—yet nothing had come. His spies had failed him. And worse, his own son had given him nothing useful. The doors creaked open, and Luca entered, his steps slow but steady. His face was carefully blank, but his mind was restless. He had barely slept the night before, thoughts of Aria clouding his judgment. He had always known she was stubborn, but this—this was dangerous. He couldn’t stop thinking about what she was planning and what could happen
Aria returned home that night with her mind still racing. Sleep did not come easily. She lay awake, staring at the ceiling, replaying her conversation with Luca over and over again. His words had unsettled her, but they had not changed her mind. She had to do this. She needed to find the missing pieces of her past, no matter the cost. The next morning, as the golden rays of the sun poured through her window, Aria made up her mind—she needed to talk to someone else. Someone who might actually understand. Someone who would listen without trying to change her mind. Her sister, Maliya. Maliya had always been different from her. Where Aria was restless and questioning, Maliya was calculated and reserved. They had never been particularly close, but they were still sisters. And right now, Aria needed someone on her side. She found Maliya sitting in the garden, sipping tea beneath the shade of an ancient oak tree. Her dark hair was neatly braided, and her expression was as calm as the still m
Aria sat by her window, staring at the dark sky. The moon shone brightly, casting silver light over the castle walls. But tonight, the moon didn’t bring her comfort. It only reminded her of the mother she never knew, the mother who had loved the night sky, just as she did.Her father’s story still echoed in her mind. The way he had spoken about her mother—with love, with pain, with longing. Aria had always known there was something missing inside her, but now she understood why. She had spent her whole life feeling like she didn’t belong, like she was caught between two worlds. And now that she knew the truth, she felt even more lost.Tears stung her eyes, but she refused to let them fall. She had spent years teaching herself not to cry, not to show weakness. But this wasn’t weakness, was it? This was grief. This was longing. This was the ache of a girl who had spent her entire life wondering who she truly was.She couldn’t keep these feelings bottled up anymore. She needed to talk to
Aria sat on the edge of her bed, her fingers twisting the ends of her long, dark hair. Her father, AlphaThane, sat across from her in a heavy wooden chair. The room was quiet except for the soft crackling of the fireplace. She had waited a long time to ask this question, but tonight, she couldn’t hold it in any longer.“Father,” Aria said, her voice firm but careful, “tell me about my mother. My human mother.”He looked at her for a long moment, his eyes dark with memories. He sighed deeply, then leaned forward, resting his hands on his knees. “I knew this day would come,” he said. “You deserve to know.”Aria straightened. “Then tell me everything.”Her father’s gaze drifted to the fire. “Her name was Evelyn. She was kind, stubborn, and full of life. She wasn’t afraid of anything.” He smiled a little. “I met her many years ago, long before you were born. I was traveling through the human lands, hiding my true identity. I wanted to see the world beyond our kingdom.”Aria listened close
The morning after the full moon ceremony, the Umbra pack stirred with restless energy. Life in the territory resumed—wolves trained, markets buzzed with activity, and children played in the open clearings—but an undercurrent of tension lingered. Everywhere Aria walked, she felt the weight of their eyes and the pull of their whispers.In the marketplace, the air was thick with the mingling scents of fresh herbs, cured meats, and the earthy tang of wolf fur. Merchants called out their wares, but their voices carried a strained edge, their attention frequently flickering toward clusters of wolves engaged in hushed conversations.“I can’t believe Orion defied the council like that,” muttered one merchant as she arranged a row of clay jars.A customer leaned in, glancing over his shoulder to ensure they were unheard. “He’s putting the entire pack at risk. If Aria isn’t of pure blood, how can she defend us? How can we trust her to lead?”“Do you think Loki was right?” A younger wolf asked a
Council members gathered in the Umbra Pack meeting hall, beneath a crescent moon, their eyes turned toward the presidium. At the head of the table stood Loki, his face a mask of smug self-assurance. He was boasting about being given the honor of presiding at this critical assembly, hence taking pleasure in it. Voices spoke over one another, now loud and now low, as each council member clearly gave an opinion on who should lead their pack in the future."The matter is already settled," Loki cut in, his voice a blade lashed out against the noise. "Aria is just not suitable to lead the pack. Her heritage, if one may call it that, becomes a serious hazard."A low, guttural voice opposed, but she is still Orion's daughter—does it count for nothing? Can we so easily turn our backs on her?'"She carries tainted blood," Loki snapped emphatically, and his hand slammed onto the table. "With tainted blood comes a tainted future."The debate continued, other voices rising above the heated argumen
Word of Aria's mixed heritage ran through the land as the raging flame locked on the wind of discord. It wasn't long before this speculation breathed its way into the Lunari pack. Through the long stone table, Thane sat at the head, and his lieutenants surrounded him. Flickering fire lit his weathered face, flashing forth his golden eyes with some devilish kind of cunning."Well, so the half-caste should be the great Orion's heir," said Thane, raising one side of his mouth in an unexpected smirk.One of his lieutenants was leaning forward, his face solemn. "The Umbra pack will be divided. Orion's judgment for keeping it secret will come under huge scrutiny.""And with each doubt, their unity cracks," Thane said with a cold and calculated voice. His fingers drummed rhythmically on the table. "This is a chance. If they lose faith in Aria, their leadership could, by mere implication, be weakened.And this we shall exploit and assert our domination."Luca, who was standing near the edge o
Dusk was creeping over the forest, causing life to suddenly emerge from its depths. Its immense pines towered high like guardians. The heart of the forest, consisting of two feuding realms, namely Lunari and Umbra, was as much of a business as the rivers and roots that intertwined there. Upon a hilly area that was drenched in sunlight, there was the Lunari pack, whose territory facilitated a cluster of cabins and enormous open areas. Although the settlement was somewhat makeshift, it still had a disciplined air to it. Each construct was made with an intention, every single inch of the land signifying their pack's historical undertakings.Thane, the alpha of the Lunari tribe, stood on the wooden platform in the center of the village while the village elder trained the young wolves in sparring. ombination of both enabled him to master all fields as he possessed motivation.
