Carter, the hunter who managed to escape, ran back to their camp, panting, his face streaked with sweat and dirt.

The other hunters watched him warily, sensing the tension in the air.

Frank, the second-in-command, stood in the center, arms crossed, his piercing eyes fixed on Carter.

“Why have you come back alone? Where are the others?” Frank questioned, his voice low and dangerous. “

“They... they’re dead. An Alpha from another pack came with his warriors and launched an attack on us, they ambushed us. We didn’t stand a chance,” Carter explained, swallowing hard his saliva as he wiped the sweat on his forehead.

“You were twenty in number, armed with weapons. How did one Alpha and a few warriors take you down?”

“They were different. They were stronger than any other werewolves we’ve faced. They had weapons too, even guns,” Carter answered, his voice wavering

“Why didn’t you contact us? You could have called the camp for backup!” Frank said.

“We tried to call for backup, but—”

    Evelyn remained within the confines of Grayson's room till the next day. Her body was still weak from her injury and the poison, although she wanted to go back to her apartment but Grayson was adamant about her staying there, keeping her close.Grayson remained in the room with her, bringing her everything she needed, food, fresh water, and even clothes she could change into. He remained by her side all day, talking to her as if there was nothing more in the world he needed than her company.Evelyn, for the first time, allowed herself to be cared for without hesitation. She had always been independent, strong-willed, and stubborn, but Grayson’s constant attention made her feel something she couldn’t quite put into words. Something warm and tender.Evelyn was sitting up in bed, the next day, the afternoon sunlight filtering through the thick curtains.She watched as Grayson moved around the room, gathering papers on his desk and organizing them carefully.“You know,” she started,

    The whispers began the moment the warriors returned from Stone Moon Pack. What had started as hushed conversations among a few members soon spread like wildfire, fueled by the warriors who’d seen the way Grayson had treated Evelyn back on the battlefield.The talk about Grayson and Evelyn's relationship soon became the words on everyone's lips at the pack.Two ladies, Lucy and Sarah, on their way to the stream to get water were busy talking about what they heard.“You hear what they’re saying about Alpha Grayson and that strange girl?” Lucy said, lowering her voice as though the grasses might have ears.“Yeah, I heard. It’s hard not to. The whole pack’s talking about it.” Sarah replied.Lucy shot her a sidelong glance, clearly uncomfortable. “Do you think it’s true? That he’s been keeping her in his room? I thought that was just a rumor,” She asked.Sarah frowned, a deep furrow creasing her brow.“I don’t know, but Alpha Grayson has never done anything like this before. He’s always

    Jerry’s black SUV arrived at the Shadow Pack and approached the gates.The guards stiffened as he stepped out, their eyes darting nervously. Without acknowledging them, Jerry walked straight towards the Alpha's house, his dark aura clearing a path ahead of him.In the main hall, Alpha Jaxon was holding court, his thin frame hunched over the table as he listened to his advisors. He was barely in his thirties, his youthful face marred by constant worry. The moment the doors swung open and Jerry entered, the air in the room thickened. Jaxon’s eyes widened, and he quickly stood, dismissing his advisors with a wave.“Leave us,” he ordered, his voice quivering.The advisors hesitated for a moment, casting wary glances at Jerry, before scurrying out of the room.Jerry’s eyes followed them until the door closed.“Busy day, Jaxon?” he drawled, his voice dripping with disdain.Jaxon forced a smile, the corners of his mouth twitching, “Routine pack matters, nothing important.”Jerry remained s

    Evelyn stretched her arms, feeling the familiar pull of freedom as she stood at the door to Grayson’s room. She turned to face him, his brow furrowed in disapproval.“You really think you’re ready?” Grayson asked in a low voice that showed concern.Evelyn smiled gently and replied, “I’ve been ready for days. You can’t keep me in your room forever.”“I’m not trying to keep you,” Grayson protested.“Yes, you are,” she cut in, laughing. “And it’s sweet, but I need some air and I also need to take a stroll. My feet feel numb,” Evelyn added.Grayson’s eyes softened, but he crossed his arms. “I don’t like this.” He said.“You don’t have to,” Evelyn replied. She leaned up, pecking his cheek. “I’ll be fine, Alpha,” Evelyn said and made her way out of the room.As she walked down the hall, she noticed the servants whispering. Their eyes flickered to her, then quickly away as she passed. Evelyn smiled as she passed them by. She knew exactly what they were gossiping about — Grayson.Evelyn d

    Grayson sat on the edge of his bed, frustration etched in the tight set of his jaw. His mind replayed the moment Evelyn had pulled away from him earlier, a mix of confusion and longing swirling inside him.“Why are you troubled?” Kyle’s voice echoed in his mind, his presence steady and calm.Grayson sighed, his voice laced with frustration. “I’m trying so hard to be close to Evelyn, but she keeps pushing me away.”“You can’t expect her to open up just like that, Grayson. You rejected her coldly, treated her like she didn’t matter.” Kyle’s tone was patient but firm.“But I’ve changed! I told her I’m sorry. What else does she need?” Grayson’s voice cracked with frustration.“Grayson, she’s not like the others who threw themselves at you. Evelyn is different. She needs to feel safe with you, to trust you, before she gives herself fully.”Grayson’s fists clenched. “It’s not about treating her like the others. It’s just… I can’t control it. Being near her—it’s driving me insane.”“Then pro

    Whispers of Grayson’s acceptance of Evelyn as his mate spread like wildfire through the Silvermoon pack. Servants, warriors, and pack members carried the news, their words laced with curiosity, judgment, and shock. Around the pack grounds, small clusters of wolves gathered, murmuring about the Alpha’s unprecedented declaration.Some were bewildered, unable to reconcile the image of their strong, unyielding leader with his choice of mate—a woman many still deemed unworthy. Others expressed outrage, citing the drama from the New Moon Festival and questioning Evelyn’s intentions and capability to lead as their Luna.As the tension simmered, petitions began to pile up on Grayson’s desk. They were penned with bold words of disapproval, underscoring the pack’s division. Many argued that Evelyn, as an outsider, could not possibly uphold their traditions or understand the sacrifices required of a Luna. Others warned of potential unrest, hinting that her acceptance would fracture the unity of

    James’s lip curled. "You are willing to sacrifice the pack for your happiness? I can't believe it."“What sacrifice have you ever made for the pack, James? Of all people, you are the least qualified to lecture me about sacrifice. You’re nothing but a selfish old man,” Grayson fired back, his voice sharp and cutting.James’s face turned red with fury as he stood abruptly, his chair scraping loudly against the floor. “What did you just say to me?” he growled, stepping toward Grayson with clenched fists.Elder Demas quickly rose from his seat, moving between the two men in an attempt to diffuse the tension. “Calm down, James! Don’t act in haste,” Demas urged, his tone firm but steady.James ignored him, his focus locked on Grayson. “Take it back!” he demanded, pointing a trembling finger at the Alpha. “Take it back, or—”“Or what?” Grayson interrupted, rising to his full height and stepping forward.

    “I heard you fought with the council of elders because of me, and you even stripped one of them of his position,” Evelyn said as she entered Grayson’s office, her expression a mixture of worry and gloom.Grayson looked up from his desk, his brow furrowing. “Is that why you look so sad? Who told you?”“Does anyone need to tell me? It’s already the talk of the town,” Evelyn replied, folding her arms across her chest.Grayson motioned to a chair. “Come here, sit down.”“I’m not sitting down, Grayson,” Evelyn snapped, pacing the room. “The pack members hate me. I can’t walk through the pack without hearing whispers or seeing fingers pointed at me. And now that you’ve fought with an elder, they’ll despise me even more.”Grayson sighed and stood up, walking over to her. “I didn’t fight with him because of you. He was disrespectful to me. Look, Evelyn, don’t let what’s going on in the pack bother you. Sooner or later, they’ll get over it.” He wrapped his arms around her, pulling her into a c

    “Did someone just try to kill me?” Evelyn asked Beta Luke as he came back to join her on the field, her voice trembling slightly.Luke nodded, his jaw clenched. “It was too close for coincidence. Whoever it was, they wanted to send a message.”“I told you whoever is writing those notes meant business, Evelyn, This is a warning. We need to tell Grayson!” Viola’s voice echoed in Evelyn’s mind."We need to inform Alpha Grayson immediately," Beta Luke said, his tone leaving no room for debate, as though he had read Viola's thoughts.“No,” Evelyn whispered aloud, drawing a confused glance from Luke. She quickly added, “I mean… I don’t want to cause unnecessary panic.”Luke folded his arms, narrowing his eyes at her. “Unnecessary? Evelyn, someone just tried to hurt you. Possibly worse. If I hadn’t been here…”“I can handle it,” she interrupted, her tone sharper than intended. “I don’t want Grayson to think I can’t deal with anything on my own.”Luke sighed, rubbing the back of his neck. “Th

    Evelyn walked back home, her thoughts heavy with the unsettling feeling that someone was watching her. The eerie sensation clung to her as she reached her apartment, her mind drifting to the notes and the conversation she had with Lisa."Who could be doing this to me?" Evelyn murmured to herself, her voice tinged with frustration.“You need to tell Grayson,” Viola’s voice echoed softly in her mind.“No, I don’t want to burden him,” Evelyn replied. “He has too much on his plate already.”“But this is serious, Evelyn. Someone is threatening you right under his nose. Whoever is leaving those notes is bold enough to follow through on their threats,” Viola insisted.Evelyn frowned, considering the possibilities. “Could it be Diana? Not many outsiders have easy access to Grayson’s house.”“Do you think Diana would go that far?” Viola asked, her tone skeptical.Evelyn sighed. “She’s the first person who wants me out of this pack. She’s also the one who doesn’t want me to be her brother’s bri

Her lips curled in disdain as she muttered, “Huh! So you’re not so different from the others.” She hissed and stormed off, leaving Evelyn mortified.Grayson’s face darkened as he moved to the door, closing it behind Diana. “Ignore her,” he said firmly, turning back to Evelyn.Evelyn looked down, her embarrassment palpable. “It’s not just her, Grayson. It feels like the whole pack is watching and judging me. And now this…”Grayson placed a gentle hand on her shoulder. “I don’t care what anyone thinks, Evelyn. But let’s talk about earlier—about you.”Evelyn hesitated before meeting his eyes. “Yes, I am a virgin. I've never been with a guy before.”Grayson's lip curved into a mischievo
