Semua Bab The Alpha's Quiet Mate : Bab 1 - Bab 10

Alpha Kieran Blackwood.His presence sucked the warmth out of the room. He didn’t need to say a word; his gaze did all the speaking. Cold, sharp, and piercing, like it could see through skin, flesh, bone, straight into whatever was left of my soul.His dark eyes flicked over me, unreadable, indifferent, like I was nothing more than a transaction. A name on paper. A deal sealed.Alpha Kieran stood well over six feet, his body carved from years of relentless battles, not just training. His features were sharp and unforgiving—high cheekbones, a strong, chiseled jawline dusted with stubble, and a jagged scar slashing across his right brow, disappearing into his hairline like a permanent reminder of violence. It didn’t mar his face; it completed it.But it was his eyes that rooted me to the spot—crystal green, cold and piercing, like shards of ice buried deep in a winter forest. They held no warmth, no flicker of kindness, just an emptiness that swallowed everything whole.His scent hit me

Freedom.It sounded so strange in my ears. I couldn't believe it. I walked disoriented behind Mira, barely listening to her happy chatter. Everything felt... surreal.Then she stopped and placed a hand on my shoulder. “Are you okay?” she asked, her voice gentle but firm.I stared at her for a long moment, and then, without warning, the tears came. A sob tore from my throat, and I crumbled. I didn’t know why. Maybe it was relief. Maybe it was exhaustion. Maybe it was just gratitude—for her, for this moment, for the chance to breathe again.Mira didn’t hesitate. She pulled me into a tight hug, holding me as I broke down. “It’s fine,” she murmured, stroking my back. “Everything will be fine.”For what felt like hours, I let myself cry, let the weight of everything spill out. When I finally stopped, I felt lighter—emptier, but in a good way.Mira smiled warmly, wiping a stray tear from my cheek. “It’s a good start, Hun. I’m here now, so whenever you feel overwhelmed, just cry. Crying is a

Kieran’s POVI could feel her determination through the link, but that wasn’t the only thing.I felt her pains, too. Every time Astrid struck her, I felt it. The blows weren’t even that strong, so why did they hurt her so much? And more importantly, why wasn’t she leaving?Then she fell and I could feel her weakening, the bond pulsing violently against my wrist. She was in danger.“That’s enough,” I told Astrid, my voice sharp, commanding. Final. “It’s her first day.”Astrid lowered her hands immediately, stepping back.I turned to Elara, starting to speak. “There’s no –” when she fell again. My breath caught.“Elara!”I shouted as I caught her before she hit the ground, my arms locking around her too-thin frame. I couldn’t feel her anymore. The bond, which had been thrumming with pain and exhaustion, went silent.The moment the bond went silent, my heart slammed against my ribs, panic twisting through me like a blade. I didn’t like this feeling.For the first time in years, I felt sc

I woke to a strange sensation, like my body was vibrating with energy. My skin tingled, and my muscles burned. I was a werewolf, so heightened senses and reflexes were normal, but today… today felt different. It was like my energy reserve was overflowing, and I needed to release it.In Mooncrest Pack, I was only allowed to shift four times a year, and I had learned to live with it. It wasn’t April yet, which meant I wasn’t due for another shift. But this urge—this uncontrollable need to run—was impossible to ignore.I jumped out of bed, throwing on whatever clothes I could grab because I knew I’d be taking them off in a few minutes anyway. Without hesitation, I bolted outside.The cool morning air hit my skin as I sprinted toward the Blackwood Forest, a massive stretch of land behind the packhouse. It was so vast that even running at full speed, it would take hours to circle it. Once I reached a large tree deep in the forest, I hid behind it and began to strip.“Nyx, are you ready?” I

Kieran’s POV “What are you doing here, Magnus?” I growled, shifting back into my human form. Magnus followed suit, standing tall with that same smug expression I despised. “Hi there, Pup. Good to see you too.” I clenched my fists. I never really understood why he called me that, but it fueled a deep rage deep inside me. Fenrir snarled, eager to take control. The wolves around me started growling and moved in surrounding him. We stood there naked and I scanned the area behind him. “You’re alone.” He smirked. “I don’t need an army to take you down, Pup.” Alex snapped his teeth at Magnus, but Magnus just chuckled. “Whoa, whoa, control your little friends, Pup. I came to introduce myself. I doubt these pups know me.” “What are you doing here?” I asked again, my voice dropped low. Magnus laughed. “Whoa, scary. You’re a grown man now.” When I didn’t react, his grin faded. “I heard you got married.” My eyes narrowed. “And how is that your business? You trespassed into my territory
