A compassionate Queen

«CLARA»The air is thick with tension as I step into the holding area, my boots echoing against the cold stone floor. When we arrive, shackled and kneeling before me are three rogues, their bodies battered and their clothes torn from days of wandering. Their faces are rugged, streaked with dirt, yet their eyes remain cold and defiant, glaring boldly at me with utter disdain as though I was their mortal enemy. One of them, a tall man with a deep scar running down his left cheek, smirks mischievously as if this entire situation is nothing more than a joke to him.I fold my arms, standing tall before them. "What were you doing near our territory?" My voice is calm but cold, demanding an answer.The scarred man shifts forward despite his restraints and sneering up at me. “We were just passing through,” he answers mockingly. “Relax, my Queen.”A muscle tenses in my jaw. I don't miss the way he practically spits out the title, as if the very idea of me being Queen is laughable. My fingers

The once prideful Alpha

«ADRIAN»The scent of antiseptic clings to the air inside the doctor’s office but I barely notice it anymore. I sit in the doctor's office, my elbows resting on the armrest of the chair, fingers lightly tapping against the wood. The chair felt too stiff beneath me, the room was too quiet. The silence stretches between Doctor Manson and me, thick and suffocating, as I brace myself for the inevitable because, with the look on his face, I already know what he wants to say. "I'm sorry, Alpha," he finally says, his voice cautious and... careful as if frightened I would tear him apart before he completes his statement. "Luna Ophelia’s pregnancy results are negative."A dull ache settles in my chest, but I maintain a neutral expression. I expected this. I prepared for it. Yet, the words still cut deep.“Again,” I murmur wearily, more to myself than him.Doctor Taylor hesitates, likely debating whether to offer comfort but he thinks better of it by choosing to remain silent. Good. I don’t

I killed her

«ADRIAN»I already know the answer, there was no redemption for my sin. My mind drags me back to that day, the day I found out about my –infertility. The news shattered me and I swear I was deeply torn inside. The word alone made my stomach twist in knots. An Alpha who could not bear an heir? It was unheard of. It was disgraceful.My entire life had been built on the expectation that I would lead the Dark Howl Pack with strength, that I would pass my bloodline down to my sons and duaghters, that my legacy would continue long after I was gone. But fate had spat in my face. Desperate, I sought Andromeda, the pack witch, I never liked the witches but I had no choice.It was then Andromeda revealed to me how Ophelia was my chosen mate and could be the only one who would be able to birth my offspring. I clearly remember her words… ‘You cannot bear an offspring, Adrian, but there is a way…. Ophelia. She's the only one who can produce your bloodline.’ And I clung to those words like a

We have come too far

«THIRD POV»Ophelia sits on the edge of her bed, her body curled in on itself like a bird with broken wings. Her arms are wrapped tightly around her knees, and she stares blankly at the floor. Her eyes are swollen and red from hours of weeping, yet fresh tears threaten to spill over, clinging stubbornly to her lashes.The door creaks open, but she doesn’t lift her head. She already knows who it is.“Ophelia,” Tiara softly calls, her presence filling the room. She enters gracefully, carrying a tray with a steaming cup of tea. She moves with elegance, as always, but her eyes darken as they sweep over her daughter with disapproval before she sets the tray down on the nightstand.“You’ve been crying for hours, child,” Tiara observes, her voice edged with impatience. “Enough of that. Take this.” Ophelia sniffles and lifts her head slightly, “Yes Mother,” her trembling hands then reaching for the cup. The warmth seeps into her fingers as she takes a slow sip, the hot liquid sliding down

Chaos in the Dark Howl pack

Tiara doesn’t answer immediately. She lowers her head, clearly deep in thought."Mother, please tell me," Ophelia urges, trying to grab her Tiara’s hand hysterically. "What do you have in mind to do? Do you have a plan? Is there a way to solve this? I don't want to lose Adrian.” Tiara became exasperate and she looked up at Ophelia sharply, her expression hardening. "Will you let me think for a moment?" Her voice rises with irritation, no longer gentle, no longer patient. "I'm not the reason for your fall out with Adrian, it's your fault you're just so weak." Ophelia flinches as though struck, shifting to the farther side of the bed. "I'm weak? So it's now my fault? Do you think I wanted this to happen?""If you didn't want it to happen, then you should have tried harder to get pregnant! This is no longer whether the moon goddess's decision to let you give birth to pups or not!" Tiara snaps.Ophelia’s eyes darken at her mother with resentment. "You think I didn't try harder? Do you h

My heart is off-limits

The atmosphere in the Rogue's pack dining hall was lively, the sound of laughter and chatter lightened up the mood of everyone. I take another bite of my food, chewing slowly before speaking up. "In two days, I will be leading the attack myself."The people around my table fall silent.Lusaka, Savanna, Brandon, Zack, and Ravenanna all freeze, their gazes snapping toward me. Even the faint sound of their cutlery scraping against plates comes to a halt.Lusaka is the first to react. He leans forward, resting his arms on the table as he studies me with a mix of concern and curiosity. “Why would you do that, my love? Don’t you trust our rogue warriors to handle it?”A small chuckle escapes me. I nudge him playfully in the ribs before answering, “Of course, I trust them to do a perfect job. But if I'm there and with my assistance, victory would be guaranteed. I want to see the look on Adrian's face when meets his defeat." "Ah, I was worried for nothing," Lusaka exhales, shaking his head

The make-out session

«CLARA» Lusaka moves toward me, his steps hurried, no one can see tell the look on his face. "Do you know what Lusaka hates most?" I feel Shantel’s presence behind me, hovering like a venomous snake, her words slithering into my ears. "He hates liars. Deceivers. And you just did that to him, you betrayed him and you won't get away with it." Goddess. What is this idiot saying? I didn’t turn to face Shantel. I didn’t react as I remained unfazed. If there was one thing I’d learned about people like her, it was that they thrived on getting under your skin. They fed on attention, on seeing you are scared to your wits. So I stood still.Behaving as though I wasn't the one she was speaking to, I didn't even spare her a single glance. "Haven't you have always been cocky, Clara?" she continued, "Seeing you've outraged the Rogue King and he hates you now and wants to punish you, you must be frightened right?" She whispers, her voice low and mocking, meant only for me to hear.Then, Lusaka

The Rogue council

«CLARA» As Lusaka and I hopped out of the car, stepping on the grounds of the council building, a mix of emotions swirled inside me. The building is large, its walls painted in dark red and black. It was smaller than the Dark Howl pack’s headquarters, but its presence was no less imposing. That hardly matters. This is the domain of the high-ranked rogues, toughened, merciless old wolves who answer to no one but themselves. And now, I am walking straight into their den.“Let's go, my love,” Lusaka, by my side, takes my hand and offers me a reassuring smile, but I couldn’t shake off the feeling of unease that had been building up inside me since I received the summons from the rogue high council.I took a deep breath, trying to calm my racing heart. It had been a while since I felt this way, nervous and uncertain about what lay ahead of me. Although Lusaka and the others might have been kind to me, even though they were still people who had yet to accept me, I knew that the high-ra

Now they know better

«CLARA» After my response, low murmurs start to brew in the atmosphere in the council hall."This was a mistake.""She doesn't belong here.""I heard she's an omega rogue, doesn't even have her wolf.""This is an insult to the council.""A cursed rogue sitting in that chair... ridiculous."Ah. There it is.I cross my legs slowly, placing my hands on my lap, my expression impassive even as my blood simmers beneath my skin.They aren’t just questioning me as Queen.They still believe I am the cursed wolf.I tilt my head, pretending to be bored as I let them talk. Let them get it out of their systems.Then, Lusaka’s voice cuts through the noise with loud authority. "Enough!"His blue eyes sweep across the room, daring anyone to challenge him.Silence falls instantly."I assume there was a reason for summoning me and my queen here," the rogue King continues, his voice calm but hard. "Elder Oswin, you may speak…" "Forgive my bluntness, my King," Elder Oswin, who happened to be Shantel’s

The Dark Howl Pack Courtroom

«ADRIAN»Tension fills the atmosphere like a thick, suffocating fog, so heavy it’s hard to breathe.The courthouse is crowded, including, pack members, the council of elders, and high-ranked wolves. Their hushed, panicked voices fill the space, their faces pale with worry.The Dark Howl Pack, my pack, has been suffering for weeks now. Pups fall sick. Crops and livestock die, and even the strongest wolves begin to weaken.It’s not just our pack. Other packs deal with similar disasters, and rumors spread like wildfire.One could feel the tension in the atmosphere. Some of the women held their children tightly, whispering prayers to the Moon Goddess. Others cast wary glances at the council of elders, as if expecting them to magically fix everything.Uncle Marcus sits among the elders on the long table, his face grim.Sitting at the head of the large table, my arms crossed, and my face unreadable. But Inside, though, frustration builds. Why is this happening? And more importantly, why no
