The Announcement

Forsaken by the Alpha King /Isabel Higgins

The heavy oak doors of the Pack Hall creaked as they swung open, releasing a chill gust of autumn wind. Aveline stood silently near the far end of the hall, her fingers brushing over the polished wood of an old armchair that once belonged to her father. She was waiting with the Elders, Beta Jack, and her best friend Hazel, all of whom wore expressions of mounting unease. The Pack Hall, usually brimming with the warmth of pack camaraderie, felt cold and hollow. “It’s not like him to be late,” muttered Elder Oswin, his voice gravelly with age. He glanced at Aveline with an attempt at a reassuring smile, but even he seemed uncertain. Aveline didn’t respond; she was focused on the emptiness beyond the open door, her chest tightening with every passing second.Hazel, standing beside her, leaned in and whispered, “Are you sure you don’t know what this is about?” Her concern seeped through her words like a leak from a cracked vase.Aveline swallowed hard, her throat dry. She wanted to shake

Broken Promises

Forsaken by the Alpha King /Isabel Higgins

The cold night air hit Aveline’s face as she stepped out of the Pack Hall, but she barely felt it. Her mind was too numb, her chest too tight to notice the sharp chill that stung her cheeks. She moved with mechanical precision, her feet taking her down the well worn path toward the woods at the edge of the Whispering territory. Each step felt surreal, as if she were moving through a fog, her surroundings hazy and distant.The moonlight filtered through the branches, casting jagged shadows across her path. Aveline’s thoughts spiraled, questions and half formed regrets tangling into knots. How could Killian do this to her? Why hadn’t he come to her first, spoken to her, instead of making his announcement like she was just another member of the pack?Was she ever really his Luna? The thought struck her with a pain sharper than any wound.“Wait!” Hazel’s voice broke through the fog. Aveline stopped, her shoulders tensing involuntarily. She turned slowly, meeting her best friend’s tearfill

A Painful Departure

Forsaken by the Alpha King /Isabel Higgins

The forest was deathly quiet, as if it, too, was holding its breath.Aveline stood in the shadows just beyond the pack’s main compound, every nerve on edge. The weight of her decision pressed down on her like a stone. The urgency of the escape buzzed in the back of her mind, urging her to move, but she forced herself to stay still, listening for any sign of danger. The moon was hidden behind a thick layer of clouds, providing just enough darkness to conceal her movement.This is the only way, she reminded herself, clenching her fists to steady the trembling in her fingers. You have to keep them safe.She heard the soft rustle of leaves, and Hazel emerged from the darkness, a small bundle of supplies clutched tightly in her hands. Her face was pale, eyes wide with worry as she approached Aveline.“I couldn’t find much,” Hazel whispered, thrusting the bundle into Aveline’s hands. “Some food, water, a few herbs… I tried to grab extra clothes, but—”“It’s enough,” Aveline interrupted soft

Fear of the Unknown

Forsaken by the Alpha King /Isabel Higgins

Aveline kept her head low as she maneuvered through the dense foliage. The woods were darker than before, the shadows heavier. She moved with purpose, each step calculated to avoid the twigs and dry leaves that could betray her presence. Every sound, every whisper of wind sent her heart racing, but she couldn’t stop. She had to keep moving forward, no matter the fear gnawing at her resolve.As she made her way further into the forest, her thoughts drifted to the years she’d spent within the pack’s embrace. It was once a place of safety, a community that had trusted her and that she had protected. Now, it felt like a distant memory—another life she could no longer claim. Her fingers tightened around the small pack of supplies Hazel had given her, a lifeline to the unknown journey ahead.A branch snapped somewhere behind her. Aveline’s breath caught, and she froze, her senses straining. For several long moments, she listened, her heartbeat roaring in her ears. The darkness seemed to pre

A New Threat

Forsaken by the Alpha King /Isabel Higgins

Chapter 5: A New ThreatThe heavy rain had ceased only hours ago, leaving the air thick with the scent of damp earth and wet pine. In the heart of Whispering Woods, the Pack Hall stood solemn and quiet, its stone walls absorbing the mist that lingered from the storm. Within those walls, murmurs and whispers buzzed like bees, barely contained by the Elders who had gathered in a tight circle around the long, polished table.At the head of the table sat Elder Oswin, his fingers drumming nervously. He exchanged a tense look with Elder Ingrid, who was watching the entrance intently, her lips pressed into a thin line. The others shifted uncomfortably, their faces betraying concern and doubt.It had been weeks since the whispers began—rumors carried by travelers and passed in low voices among the pack members. Whispers of Morgana’s cruelty and Killian’s indifference. Of laws broken and traditions ignored. Of fear gripping the hearts of the pack, spreading like a dark cloud over their once pr
