Dorian’s grip on Irwin tightened as he lowered her gently onto his bed, his fingers brushing her bare skin with hunger. Irwin’s heart raced as his mouth found her neck, his lips tracing the path of her pulse. The intensity of his touch made her gasp, her hands gripping him instinctively, her nails digging into his back.Dorian’s desire was fierce, his body pressing against hers with urgency. His lips moved lower, finding her nipple and sucking with an almost primal hunger. Irwin arched beneath him, torn between wanting to pull him closer and the lingering confusion about why she affected him so much. She wasn’t supposed to feel this, yet the tension between them had grown stronger with every passing moment.Suddenly, a knock at the door shattered the intensity.Dorian’s head snapped up, his muscles tensing as a growl escaped him. His eyes darkened with irritation as he pulled away from her. Irwin lay on the bed, panting, her body trembling from the abrupt shift in energy. The moment w

The tension in the hall was thick as Ashina caught sight of what had grabbed Dorian’s attention. Her laughter, light and playful, cut through the silence like a knife. "Oh, there she is," she teased, her eyes glittering with a mix of curiosity and amusement.Dorian’s gaze dropped immediately, his jaw tightening. He hadn’t wanted anyone to notice Irwin, least of all Ashina. He could feel his control slipping, and that was the last thing he needed.Leo sighed heavily beside him, running a hand through his hair. "Ashina, must you always make a scene?" His voice held a thread of irritation, though it was mostly for show. He knew better than to try and control Ashina.With a mischievous grin, Ashina ignored Leo and quickly made her way down the hallway toward Dorian’s chambers. She pushed open the door and was greeted by the sight of Irwin standing near the entrance, looking startled. Their eyes met briefly before Irwin quickly looked away, her confusion evident. "Hey," Ashina said casua

Irwin’s heart felt heavy in her chest as she stared out of the small window in her room. The night was still, yet her thoughts were anything but. She ran a hand through her hair, trying to silence the doubt that clawed at the edges of her mind. What had happened earlier with Leo she just met for the first time, left her feeling unsettled, and the weight of being Dorian’s mate didn’t help. No matter how much time passed, the sense of not belonging never left her.A soft knock echoed through the quiet room, startling Irwin from her thoughts. She wasn’t expecting anyone, especially not at this hour. Her pulse quickened, but she forced her voice to remain steady as she called out, "Come in."The door creaked open, revealing Ashina standing there, a gentle smile playing on her lips. Irwin felt a small sense of relief wash over her at the sight of the familiar face. Ashina stepped inside, closing the door behind her with a quiet click."Hey, I hope I’m not disturbing you at all, Irwin," Ash

The sound of the bell rang out across the Shadowclaw castle like an alarm in the night continuously, a sharp, relentless call to action. The tension in the air was palpable as Dorian stormed out of his chambers, fury written across his face. His mind was racing, but his body moved with a singular purpose.As he stepped into the courtyard, guards immediately rushed toward him, their breath heavy with anticipation. The soldiers lined up in perfect formation, their faces a mix of fear and readiness, waiting for their Alpha’s command.“Alpha!” the head of the guards called out as he rushed toward Dorian. “We’ve spotted wolves, ones that doesn't belong to our clan, roaming near the borders. They’re moving fast and it looks like they’re on a mission.”Dorian’s eyes darkened, his body vibrating with fury. “How many?” he growled, his voice sharp like a blade.“At least six, but there could be more. They’re fast, and we couldn’t catch them. We think they’re scouts.”Dorian’s eyes darkened agai

The room was dimly lit, and shadows flickering against the stone walls as Alpha Valen sat alone, his hands resting on the edge of the dark, and ancient table. The air around him hummed with energy, a low, vibrating pulse that seemed to throb with every breath he took. In front of him, a swirling orb of mist and shadow hovered, reflecting the scene in the woods where Dorian and his pack were gathered.Alpha’s lips curled into a dark smile as he watched Dorian’s frustration mount. “You think you’ve got control, don’t you, Dorian?” Alpha murmured under his breath. “But I’m always one step ahead of you.”A low chuckle echoed through the room as the relic.hidden and unseen by Dorian.glowed faintly in the woods. Vendetta’s magic had done its work. The Shadowclaw would never know the true source of their fear, nor who had been pulling the strings from behind the veil.“Let him suffer,” Alpha whispered. His voice, though soft, was dripping with venom. He clenched his fists as the swirling mi
