She turned and caught a glimpse of the stranger's piercing blue eyes, her heart skipped a beat. That face she'd never forgotten, one that had tortured her nightmares for years and continues to haunt her.

"Nora," the stranger said, his voice low.

"It's been a long time my dear Nora."

She glanced at him, shocked and confused.

What was he doing here? How did he know Eve?

"Who are you?" She pretended, attempting to keep her voice steady.

He laughed, crinkling his eyes at the corners. "You don't remember me, Nora?" he inquired, his voice filled with agony.

And then, the memories hit her, they began flooding back, and she felt like she'd been punched in the gut.

"Ryder?” she muttered, her voice barely audible.

Ryder, her first love, her confidant, and everything, had left her hurt and confused after disappearing without a word.

Until Alex discovered her and made her life worth living again.

That same “Ryder” is here, standing in front of her, his eyes burning with such intensity that her heart skipped a beat and burned with pain.

Before she could ask him any questions, Eve came out, her voice full of contempt and hostility.

"Ryder, darling," she exclaimed, her eyes shining with triumph.

"I am so delighted you are here. You've arrived just in time to experience Nora's new life as my maid, so I'll have her serve you right away. Why did I inform Alpha Alex of your arrival...The Alpha of Stone Moon pack. She smiled and walked out, leaving her devastated.

We meet again,” he growled. She jumped back, her Irish eyes bulging out, and pain flashed through her eyes.

“Y-you,” She sputtered, clutching her mini gown.

Ryder sucked his teeth. Was she intentionally seducing him, on realizing that he was now the notorious Alpha of Stone Moon Pack?

She gasped, and the hairs on the back of her neck stood up, and her breath quickened. Ryder chuckled darkly, reveling in her fear.

“You're as ruthless as always.” She sneered, staring at his face.

Ryder growled, he hated the irritation and hatred for him that flashed in her eyes. He needed her back in his life but she didn't. She seemed to detest him. Growling again, he grabbed her into his arms; his mouth automatically found the mark above her chest he gave her years ago and touched it; her breath ceased for a moment.

He chuckled, licking it again to seal it out of eyesight “You're coming home with me.”

“Never,” She retorted, her breath heavy, her eyes fluttering open and close. “This is my pack. I'm Luna.”Ryder Smirked Ex-Luna, but now a maid, you mean?

“No, I will not go with you.”I'm still….

“We shall see.” He said, letting go of her. He was surprisingly pleased as the scent of her arousal swarmed the room as he returned to his place in the packed hall Alex gave him to stay.

He had come up with a simple plan. Immediately after the party was over, he was going to bargain for her with Alex and if he refused him, he was going to bring hell to Zodak. Ex-Luna or not, she was his.

When he got her, he was going to use every means to break the spell she had over him that lured him to her for years.

…………..

Immediately after Alpha Ryder left, Nora fell to the ground shuddering and gulping in air. That was the most intense moment of her life. What the hell did that devilishly good-looking man crawl out from? And why was her body melting under his touch and gaze even after he had said the worst words anyone had said to her in a long time?

"Breathe in, breathe out, " she huffed, fanning her hot face. He also made the most ridiculous statement she had heard in a while. What did he mean by that statement ‘she was going home with him?’

He may be an Alpha, the most ruthless Alpha known to the werewolf world, but Alex was her mate. Despite the disparaging treatment he was giving her, because of the death of his mother, she was still his. They were mates.

"Just breathe," she muttered to herself and placed her hands on her beating heart to calm it.

She couldn't understand why, despite all the assuring words and thoughts she was giving to herself, she still felt afraid. Her body trembled, her heart thrashed within her chest, and how her wolf was going crazy in her subconscious.

"There she is," a snarky voice hissed, as the door of her thin room flung open. She was taken aback by this suddenness and moved further away from the door.

"Where have you been? Do you not know that Alpha Alex has been looking for you all over the place? Have you now forgotten your duties as Luna..oops maid of this house?"

Nora released a breath she didn't know she was holding and gathered herself to her feet. She looked at her intruder for the first time and it was one of the omegas Alex had been with. Nora rolled her eyes, then stared at her feet, pretending to ignore the young girl.

"Bitch, are you listening to me? Are you deaf or are you dumb? Alpha Alex has requested that you set the table for the party to welcome the warriors from Stone Moon Park, and you should also dress up to accompany his new Luna to greet the visitors. And you are ignoring me!" She ranted. Scoffing, Nora continued to pretend like she was adjusting her gown.

The young werewolf growled, "You're cocky, huh? You are cocky because you know I can't do anything to you right now. Well, watch what happens after the party."

With that, she stomped out of Nora's room and banged the door close. It took Nora a whole lot of self-control to keep herself from bursting into laughter. She always enjoyed putting those nasty girls in their places, even though she knew the repercussions would be dire.

She chose not to worry about that now and even ignored Alex and Eve. She allowed herself to fall onto the small foam in her thin room and then exhale.

The past few days had been a total hell for her. Alex had used all forms of punishment to make her pray for death. With the visitors around she will be lurking in the shadows and avoid him completely.

"Ugh," she groaned. "I know the torment will continue when that ruthless Alpha Ryder and his warriors return to his pack."

She massaged her temples with her eyes shut, wishing that, by some miracle, something would happen and change her new fate. At least that way, she would retain her position as Luna and Ryder would forget what they had in the past. At the thought of alpha Ryder, a cool shiver snaked up her spine, causing her to sit upright immediately.

Why was the mere thought of him making her body react like that? She laughed grimly as she remembered his threats. He was not only rude and wicked, but also out of his mind. Why would a normal-thinking person believe or even threaten to take away the Luna of a pack?

It was hilarious, and if she hadn't been so pissed off at him and too tired of the day's chores, she would have laughed harder. Her ears picked up the sound of thundering footsteps heading toward the thin room and she jumped to her feet Immediately

    "Nora!" Alex growled, flinging open the door, "Are you crazy? What the hell are you doing in here after I summoned you about an hour ago?"Nora's eyes went around with fear. Her heartbeat became irregular, and her breathing became labored."I-I," she stuttered, shifting slowly until she was leaning on the wall.Alex sneered, the veins on his neck looked like they were about to bust open. He balled his fists, pushed away the chair in front of her, and growled at her."How dare you bitch? How dare you disregard me! How many times do I have to warn you about your disrespect to me? Do you think I will not find out? The girl I sent to you told me everything. You called her names, you defied me, and you dared to stand here and stare at me in those eyes!" he yelled before closing the gap between them."I see you've begun to develop wings again. Because I've been busy for a few days, do you think you are now free? Have you forgotten your place so soon? Have you forgotten your new fate? Stupid

  • Torn Between Two Alpha's    CHAPTER 5 DESIRE REAWAKENED

    Ryder was enraged by Nora's statements by the time he arrived at the Zodak pack hall for the celebration prepared by Alpha Alex to celebrate his arrival. Many attractive damsels made signals and threw themselves at him. It made him giggle as he recalled the limitless number of ladies who thought they could tame and mate him, only to get fascinated with his physique and be discarded when he grew bored of them. As the party continued, other attractive women piqued his interest, and he resolved that if he couldn't have Nora at his side tonight, he'd vent his frustration on them in bed. Ryder didn't like Alpha Alex, but he was impressed by the splendor of the party.Alex was powerful and ruthless, but not at his level. However, Ryder was aware that he needed to be restrained lest he develop wings and become arrogant. After all, Zodak had formed tight bonds with the pack he had recently subdued. Ryder's disgust for the pompous Alex was exacerbated by the fact that he was only concerned wit

    Ryder's focus remained solely on Nora as he sailed through the crowd, his long strides swiftly closing the gap between them. Although Eve continued to speak, Nora's focus was unwavering, her eyes reflecting a tumult of feelings directed at Ryder. As Ryder approached closer, Eve’s gaze turned to the floor, unable to maintain his smile, before stepping back. She anxiously glimpses between him and Nora. The announcer was echoing throughout the place. “Let’s have our last dance for the night…”Ryder grabbed Nora’s hand and said, “Would you grant me the pleasure of dancing with you?" "D… d… don't think…” was all she blurted out. At this point, Alex had appeared next to Ryder, whose voice was dangerously low. "What is going on here, Ryder?” “Because I merely want to dance with her,” Ryder answered, still looking at Nora. Alex permitted it with a flick of his wrist, but his eyes were filled with envy.“Nora, I think we should have a conversation, don’t you think? Nora?” Nora blinked i

    My lord, Dear, don't you think it is time you rest for the day? Eve's hands ran through the hair of Alpha Alex, trying to break him free from the tight grip of his hands over Nora's waist as they danced to the melody's beat that echoed in the hall… Giving Nora enough space to escape.Excuse me…she murmured and walked straight to her tin room….“Whore” she heard the omegas whisper as she brushed past them. She stared at them, intentionally rolled her eyes, and rushed down the corridor.“Make sure you go head down the corridor, and to your left is your rat room remember to come out here afterward to clean the left over from the guest, and when you are done cleaning, you can freshen up…..Alpha Alex will soon demand of you to peel off your flesh from your tonight display of shame…another omega shouted”.She nodded in affirmative but in her mind, she reckoned not to go. Somehow, she reassured herself that whoever it was that assigned this little omega to talk to her this way would not kill

    Nora's breath fastened as Ryder's lips left her mouth and traveled down to her neck and the sensitive part of her ear lip, which made her shiver in divine pleasure.Brushing his teeth and grazing the spot where a mate mark should have been.The heat of his breath sent hot shivers down her spine, arousing something deep and passionate within her-something she had believed was long buried.His breath was like droplets of steam along her body.“She gasped.”... He passed himself into her, and she felt how aroused he was.She moaned and tangled her hair in his silky hair, something she had wanted to do when he asked her for a dance, looking freaky hot. She has been damned ever since. She moved her hips and knowingly grounded her crotch against his, her breath flattened against his broad hairy chest. Seductively, she tangled a leg around his waist and pulled him closer, her hand playing on the waistband of his blue Calvin Klein underwear. He moaned out a sexy, predatory sound that made

    The sound drew closer and closer, Ryder swing Nora around and quickly hid her beneath his arm just behind the refrigerator. The door swung open, accompanied by a shining bright torch light.“There's no one here,” Alpha Alex's husky voice broke the silence….I saw her walk in here, and I watched Alpha Ryder crip in afterward….Eve reassuredHe took more steps, closer to the refrigerator and stopped…. Nora felt like a sharp knife had been pierced into her heart and Each step brought deeper fear into her…shaking her of her every being…“What if we're caught ““All hell will be let loose,” she murmured within her.The fear of what Alpha Alex would do to her skin made her almost want to pee on her pants….she shut her eyes tight on Alpha Ryder's shoulder, waiting for it to happen.Suddenly…the door of the kitchen swings open… A loud noise of warriors trilling them was held in the corridorMy lord…We saw a trace of Alpha Ryder in the mini hut behind the park house… the husky voice said“Qui

    Alpha Ryder ran quickly through the underground tunnel, his wolf senses sharp, his mind a tangled mess of emotions drilling him down. He knew Alpha Alex's warriors were searching the Zodak Moon Pack for him, but they wouldn't find his oozing scent. He had been conscious, using the secret underground escape path his warriors had prepared in case of casualties.But his thoughts weren’t on his escape—it was on her. “Nora” his true mate.His heart tightened painfully at the recall of her in his arms, the way she had melted beneath his touch, her body responding to him regardless of her challenge. She still desired him. He could feel it in the way her breath fastened, in the way her hands gripped him like he was her lifeline support system. Yet, she had pushed him away, refusing to escape with him."R.ryder I have to go back to my room, or he’ll come after me with worse torment." Those were her exact words.Ryder grated his teeth, his murderous wolf growling in frustration. Just thinking o

    She tossed and turned in her bed, staring at the clock as it crept towards midnight, the guilt gnawing at her chest".Every time she shut her eyes, she felt Alex’s piercing stare, the ghost of Ryder’s warmth, and the far howls of Alpha Alex's warriors searching for him.Her body still reacts to Ryder’s kiss, her mind at war with itself. “She shouldn’t have let him touch her, She shouldn’t have responded”. But goddess helped her, she did; she couldn't rest her wolf yarning for him.She buried her face in her small pillow, desperate to stop the memories from flooding in, but it was difficult. His scent still clung to her skin regardless of her attempts to wash it away.Her wolf was restless. He’s back for us. He won’t leave us again, her wolf growling."But I can’t go with him," Nora argued within.

  • Torn Between Two Alpha's    CHAPTER 31 – Journey Back to the Zodak Pack

    The forest around them pulses with the silence of anticipation, broken only by the rare whistling of an owl or the scratches of dry leaves beneath their feet. The moon hung high in the sky, radiating pale beams of blurred silver that filtered through the canopy trees, lighting their path as Nora, Alex, and Ryder moved through the woods forest, creating a path in the bushes.She adjusted her shoulder, her body still ached and her wrists were still red and raw from the silver chains. But Nora minds? Was sharp, clear and focused. There was no going back to that fragile wolf she was. Not after everything Eve had made her gone through in the hands of Alpha Alex.“I…I think we should stop here and rest for the night,” Ryder said suddenly, his voice steady as he gazed at Nora. His eyes held the concern of a man who hadn’t stopped watching her since they left the cave after fighting the deadly rogues.Nora nodded, appreciative but speechless. She was super tired, yes. But mostly, she was thin

    Her heart continued to pound tightly in her chest as the event before her unfolded like a scary nightmare, everything around her was strange. Dreadful rogues moved in, their glowing red eyes filled with evil, surrounding her and the masked man like a pack of hungry predators that have seen a prey to devour. The scent of blood and groans thickened in the air. Despite the danger, her eyes were fixed on the masked figure standing protectively in front of her.Nora inhaled, she knew that scent. That dreaded, powerful and familiar aura. The way he moved with precise, lethal grace with royalty.Yes, it was “Alex”.B..but why was he here? Why had he come to save her after everything he had done? Was Mary right when she said Alpha Alex still has feelings for me?Just before she could fully process it, a deep, harsh growl echoed through the cavern. Another massive figure springs into the battle, fur that's dark as midnight, fangs bared with deadly intent sound.It was “Ryder”.He storms the b

    Everywhere was dark when she woke up, she was no longer in the Zodak packhouse.Nora's head pounded, her body felt weak, and the sharp scent of earth and damp stone filled her nose.“Where am I?” She asked, opening her eyes slightly. With chains bounding her wrists tightly, which glow faintly with silver runes that suppressed her wolf within. She could feel a scary shadow loomed over her, she closed her eyes and reopen them again for a clearer vision, then she found herself staring at a face she hadn’t seen in years.A face that sent t chill through her spine.“Hello, Nora,” the man said, his voice smooth and deadly. “Did you miss me?”Her heart skips seeing the face standing before her, dressed in dark robes and exuding raw, terrifying power….Was the rogue Alpha who had once sworn to destroy the Zodak pack and behind him was Eve, smiling. “This is your new home Nora” A cave, this is where you belong. Eve said.Fear shoots up in Nora’s chest. A cave. That wasn’t just any punishment…w

  • Torn Between Two Alpha's    CHAPTER 28 Eve's Power

    In the morning, Nora moved through the packhouse as if nothing had changed. She kept her head low, avoiding Eve and Alex as much as she could. But inside, she was counting the hours until she could retrieve the tracker stone from Eve’s room without being noticed.And If it worked, she would finally have proof.That evening, a sharp knock on her door made her blood cold. She turned the handle slowly and found herself face-to-face with two of Alex’s most powerful warriors.“Alpha Alex wants to see you,” one of them said, his face unreadable.She swallowed the hard lump in her throat. Was it because she declared she and Ryder had been together? Or did they catch her sneaking into Eve’s room the other day? Oh, maybe the tracker had been found? Whatever it was, seems urgent and important than whatever she had disclosed yesterday.She forced herself to nod. “I..I’ll be right behind you.”Her heart kept racing, as she followed them through the corridor.What if this was it? What if Alex was

    Her breath fastened as Ryder’s lips moved against hers, slow and steady……it deepened into something rough and intense as if he was trying to prove a point with every touch that he meant what he said. His hands cupped her face gently and romancing it with his fingers, his touch both familiar and dreadful. A storm of unexplainable emotions raged inside her…anger, longing, betrayal, and something deeper, something terrifying or maybe something she couldn't explain.Nora inhaled as his hands slid to her waist, pulling her against him. She could feel the beating of his heart against hers, the warmth of his body wrapping her like a promise he would never break again.She should push him away. She should remind herself of the pain he had once caused her, of the nights she had cried herself to sleep, cursing his name, the several calls and messages without reply But the moment his fingers trailed down her arm, sending shivers across her skin, she melted into him, lost with desirable pleasure.

    Nora’s heart continued trembling as she walked back into her room, her pulse racing from what she had just seen. Eve’s reflection… changed and twisted dark…the thought burned in her mind. She had suspected her stepsister of having wicked intentions, but this was something far worse.How could she be using dark magic? Something forbidden and deadly.If Alpha Alex knew this, would he eventually see Eve’s true colors? Or was he too lost under her spell to care about the truth?She shut the door silently behind her, resting against it to catch her breath. The smooth stone Elder Moscus had given her felt like it weighed a hundred pounds in her pocket before she placed it in Eve's floorboards. Oh dear lord “ I hope it works.” If it worked, it would expose Eve once and for all. But if it didn't work…N…No it couldn’t fail.A cracking sound near her window brought her out of her thoughts. Her heart froze to her throat as her wolf senses flared up, scanning the room and looking toward the win

    It was a cold night and the cool air brushed against Nora’s skin as she moved silently through the thick lonely forest. The moon hung high in the sky, radiating an eerie silver glow over the tangled tree branches. Her heart flumped against her ribs with each step she took toward the eastern border, following the direction on the parchment.This could be a trap, it kept resounding in her head.B..but if it wasn’t… and the Elder had answers,… she had to know and she didn't mind taking the risk.A twig snapped beneath her legs, and she froze, looking around the dark forest. The air felt unease with tension, and her wolf stirred up uneasily inside her. She tried to control her heavy breathing, she swallowed hard and she kept pushing forward. She had no choice now, she needed answers.When she reached the clearing, a tall, shaded figure stood waiting. His wide shoulders and the weight of authority in his position made her breath seized. It was him….Elder Moscus. One of the oldest and most

    Nora frowned as she walked back toward the packhouse. The moment she reached her room, she shut the door and relaxed against it, breathing angrily. Her blood still boiling from the confrontation with Alex and Eve, if she had not known Alpha Alex, she would have said he was already bewitched by that evil girl Eve. Damn him!What has come over him? He was letting the pack so vulnerable and the painful aspect was his I don't care attitude. Alpha Alex had always been careless and had left majority of the pack affair for her to be in control but not to this length. Something strange was fishing….Why was she still here? Why was she still putting up with this torment and humiliation she get from Alpha Alex every day?She had no true place in this pack anymore.

    Nora had walked quietly out of the pack, veiled, hoping that no one noticed her. Although all her wounds had healed up, her body was still tender and her mind was still raw with pain.“Luna,” an elderly woman called out, tapping her back affectionately. Nora stifled a whimper and ground her teeth as pain rippled through her nerves. Slowly she spun around and plastered a false smile on her face.“Zara,” she greeted.He gave her a wry smile, “Thank you. My mate told me how you helped her yesterday with foodstuffs for our pups. You're the best thing that has happened to this pack,” she said. Tears welled in Nora's eyes, her aching heart broke a little more pieces. Her smile faltered and she struggled to keep it up. “Don't mention Zare,” She croaked, “That's what a Luna is for, isn't it?” Nora asked.Zara grinned and squeezed her shoulders, “Yes, but you're humane about it. It's heartwarming. You are a true Princess, thank you.” She finished, smiling and hobbled away. The moment she wa
