Rayne POVKael stood in my room, the moonlight cutting through the thick/heavy darkness, illuminating the sharp angles of his face. His expression was unreadable, but the tension in his body spoke up for him.“What do you mean about the darkness’?” I asked, my voice trembling despite my attempt to keep it steady and totally on the low. He closed the door behind him, his eyes meeting mine with a rare look. “You’ve trusted me this far, Rayne. I need you to keep trusting me and make this relationship go far. What I’m about to say... it might be hard to hear.” I stepped back, my heart pounding so hard. “What are you hiding from me, Kael?” “I’m not who you think I am,” he said, his voice barely above a whisper. The words hit me like a punch to the gut. I wanted to deny them, to tell him he was wrong, but the doubt that had been gnawing at me since the attack was impossible to ignore. “Then who are you?” I demanded with a serious look. “Because right now, I don’t know what to be
Rayne POVThe battle surged around us, a storm of snarling wolves and flashing steel. Every breath was a struggle as I pushed forward, my blade swinging wildly. My muscles screamed in protest, but I refused to stop. Not while my pack needed me. Kael and Mateo fought back-to-back, their movements almost in sync despite their mutual hatred. Kael’s blade glinted in the moonlight, a blur of lethal precision, while Mateo’s sheer strength left crushed wolves in his wake. “Rayne, stay close!” Kael barked, cutting down a shadow wolf that lunged toward me. “I can handle myself!” I snapped, slashing at another wolf. “You’re not invincible!” Kael growled, his tone sharper than his blade. Mateo shoved a wolf off him and glared at Kael. “Focus on the fight, lover boy, or she won’t have to worry about invincibility.” “Shut up, Mateo!” I shouted, frustration boiling over. “Enough!” Kael roared, his voice echoing over the chaos. For a moment, even the wolves seemed to pause. “We don’t h

The weeds had grown thick around the base of the packhouse, making my task harder than it needed to be at a usual time, but I didn’t mind at all.

The words from there tongue. The strange sense that I was at the center of something far bigger than myself, was everything.And the pack was noticing it as days passed.Everywhere I went, whispers followed me like the air that I take in. Whenever I passed a group of pack members, conversations would abruptly stop, only to resume in hushed tones once I was out of earshot. They were talking about me in my presence.

"You don't need to fear your power. Let it flow. Let it guide you on what to do."I nodded, my breath shallow.

Chapter Twelve: Shadows of the PastCrystal point of viewI barely slept that night, my mind racing with everything that had happened. Orin’s attack had left a scar—not just on my body but on my soul. Every time I closed my eyes, I could feel the shard’s darkness lingering, a shadow waiting to consume me. It was a chilling reminder of how close I had come to losing control.As the first light of dawn filtered through the trees, I forced myself to get up. The pack was already stirring, preparing for the day ahead. I could hear the low murmur of voices, the shuffle of feet as they moved about the camp. They were watching me now, but it was different. There was a new tension in the air, a mix of respect and fear that hadn’t been there before.I walked outside, the cool morning breeze brushing against my skin. Dante, Ezra, and Ryan were already awake, talking quietly near the edge of the camp. They looked up as I approached, their expressions unreadable.“Morning,” I said, trying to sound
Chapter Eleven: AwakeningCrystal point of viewThe darkness was suffocating, a heavy weight pressing down on me, pinning me to the ground, making me feel pressured. My mind and body struggled to fight through it, but it felt endless and meaningless—cold, empty, and filled with whispers I couldn’t understand. Somewhere, deep in the void, I could hear voices calling my name, but they were distant, muffled by the shadows swirling around me.Then, suddenly, a sharp pain shot through my chest, jolting me back to reality. My eyes flew open, and I gasped for air, my lungs burning as I choked on the cold night air. I was on the ground, lying in the clearing where the battle had taken place. Everything was a blur, but slowly, I began to focus. The pain in my chest was intense, and I instinctively reached for it, only to find the dark shard that Orin had stabbed me with still embedded there, pulsing with an unnatural energy.I tried to pull it out, but the moment I touched it, a searing pain s
Chapter Ten: Betrayal in the Shadows.The howl rang out, cutting through the night like a blade. My blood ran cold as I recognized it—Cole’s rallying cry.“Cole’s coming back,” Dante said, his voice low and dangerous as his wolf senses sharpened. His posture was tense, ready for battle.I took a deep breath, trying to steady myself. My heart raced, not from fear but from the anticipation of what I knew was coming. Cole wasn’t going to accept my ascension quietly. He’d rally whoever he could and challenge me head-on. But what unnerved me wasn’t just his impending attack. It was that haunting howl, the unmistakable call for war.“Crystal, stay close to us,” Ryan said, his eyes scanning the treeline. Ezra stepped forward, positioning himself in front of me.“He’s not alone,” Dante muttered, his voice grim.I could feel the tension ripple through the pack as they all turned their attention to the trees. Shadows flickered, and suddenly, from the forest’s edge, Cole emerged, flanked by a do
Chapter Nine: A Queen’s CommandThe pack knelt before me, the tension hanging thick in the air. I could hardly believe it. Me? Their Queen?The words sounded foreign in my mind, yet the power still hummed beneath my skin, undeniable.Dante stepped closer, his voice low but firm. “Crystal, you need to speak. Show them who you are.”I swallowed hard, glancing at the wolves who had once mocked and banished me. Now, they were kneeling, their heads lowered in submission. My hands clenched at my sides, unsure of what to say, but Dante’s presence grounded me. This wasn’t about them anymore. This was about me stepping into what I was destined for.I took a deep breath. “Rise,” I commanded, my voice stronger than I expected.The pack hesitated, exchanging nervous glances before they obeyed. Slowly, they stood, keeping their heads low, refusing to meet my gaze. The weight of their submission pressed against me, but I wasn’t going to let it crush me.Cole, still on one knee, finally stood as wel
Chapter Eight: Bonds of BloodCrystal point of viewThe moment the wave of power exploded from me, everything around us seemed to freeze in the thin air. The harsh light from my energy bathed the forest in an eerie glow, and I could hear nothing but the faint crackle of power still coursing through me like a river flowing water. For the first time, the wolves hesitated. Their snarls were replaced with uncertainty, their eyes wide with something I hadn’t seen before or even gotten from them before;fear.They were scared of me already.Alpha Dante, Beta Ezra, and Gamma Ryan stood by my side, their eyes glowing with intensity and low Word's to me. Their whole presence was more than just comforting to me, it was empowering.

"The pack won’t wait long before they strike again.”He was right about those words. There was no time to rest, no time to gather my thoughts together. The pack was out for blood, and I was their target and there pawn in there big game.“We have to leave now,” Alpha said, his voice low but firm and controlling. The other men were already moving, preparing for what was to come up next. “They’ll come in full force, and next time, they’ll be better prepared to fight for themselves.”I nodded, my heart still racing from the confrontation.
