Chapter: The LunaPhoebeI had never set foot in Dark Crimson before, and the moment our car passed through its front gates, my whole body tensed. The pack house rose like a dark fortress—nothing like the elegant Silver Claw manor or the clean-lined designs of Thunder Bite. This place felt ancient, heavy… dominant.The building looked as if it had been carved from one giant block of obsidian, with deep red accents running along each pillar like dried blood. The Dark Crimson banner fluttered against the gray sky—black and red, marked by a crowned Lycan sigil.The scent of Lycans hit me the second I stepped out of the car. It’s all thickness like a mist clinging to the skin. Their warriors stood in perfect rows—huge, stoic, sharp-eyed. Their gaze carried respect, but not warmth.Zion automatically stepped half a step in front of me, protective instincts rising like a shield. Hayden scanned the area with his usual stone-cold expression. Finley… poor Finley smelled faintly of nerves; even I could pick it u

Chapter: Between Cold and WarmthPhoebeFinley told me that Hayden was preparing a special pavilion for the guests from the three major packs: Mystic Guardian—my father’s pack, Light Walker—Zion’s pack, and Dark Crimson—Adonis’s. Even some Elders from those packs were considering moving to Thunder Bite after seeing me and my four mates together. They said our territory had the potential to become the next great wolf domain, especially if the Elders helped guide it.That thought was still spinning in my head when the snowstorm that had been roaring since morning finally calmed. Heavy footsteps echoed from upstairs—Hayden coming down from his office.“Bee,” he called, leaning down to kiss the top of my head. “Can you make some grilled sausages and ginger cookies? I wanna snack with Henry on the west terrace.”The simple request made me smile. Ever since Anastasia was born, Hayden had been trying so hard to balance his time for the family, even though an Alpha’s work never truly stopped.I prepared the snacks quickly. T

Chapter: The PranksterFinley Unfortunately, I still hadn’t told Adonis about my new status. I should’ve said something right after graduation, but life didn’t give me a single chance to breathe once I was appointed as Thunder Bite’s Beta. Responsibility hit like a nonstop storm. Hayden and I were on site almost every day, making sure the facility project stayed on schedule—which, if you were working with Hayden, actually meant perfect to the smallest detail. He was ridiculously perfectionist. Honestly, the kind of person who made others want to throw a brick at his head. Strangely, I never felt that way. I had grown used to his pace, his pressure, and even stranger… my Beta instincts felt safer under his command. Ever since our e-sports days, I had always followed his lead—even back when I still lived in my old pack. Maybe it was true: a Beta’s blood was made to obey and steady his Alpha. With Hayden, my wolf relaxed. He knew exactly who to protect, who to watch out for, and who sat at the center of h

Chapter: What I Found in the LightZionTwo days after Phoebe gave birth, I stood once again at the gates of the Light Walker Pack—my birthplace, the home that never truly felt like mine. The winter wind tugged at the ceremonial cloak I wore, while my newborn daughter, Anastasia, slept quietly in the white sling Phoebe held close to her chest.Phoebe still looked pale. Two days… her body was nowhere near recovered. But her determination to attend the blessing ritual kept her steps steady. And honestly, that’s one of the countless reasons I admired her.“If you’re too tired, we can postpone this,” I murmured.She shook her head. “Light Walker is your blood, Zion. And now… it’s Anastasia’s too. Besides, I’ve done this whole giving-birth thing before, remember?”Yeah, but this time she gave birth to my child. That made everything feel different.Her gaze softened something in me. Even exhausted, her eyes stayed clear—steady with a quiet resolve. I kept forgetting just how strong this woman truly was.We were escorted to t

Chapter: The Day of Crossing PathPhoebeThree years had passed since that quiet morning in the little rented house, and somehow the world had spun far away from every plan Hayden and I once made together. But as I stood in front of the mirror that morning—staring at my rounded belly and the faint paleness in my cheeks—I realized that some parts of the past never truly left.“If you keep standing like that, the baby might decide to come before the ceremony even starts,” Finley teased, laughing as he picked up a graduation invitation from the table.I let out a slow breath, one hand resting on my belly. “I just want to look… a little normal, Fin. It’s their big day.”“Normal’s a relative term. You’re three months pregnant and still wearing high heels. That’s practically a miracle.”I didn’t get the chance to reply because Henry—my little boy with his ash-gray hair just like his father’s—ran out of the living room, clutching the small gift bag we’d wrapped last night. “Mommy! We’re late!”Finley quickly scooped him into

Chapter: The Beginning of Thunder BitePhoebeIt’s been a month since everything finally settled down—since that evening filled with hopes and quiet relief in our little house, since the world seemed to pause just to let us breathe again.The days that followed found a new rhythm—peaceful, simple, and real.This morning, Hayden asked me to sit with him on the porch, under a soft stretch of sunlight. He studied me for a long time before speaking quietly.“You don’t want to continue your studies at the academy, Phoebe?”I hesitated, staring into my cup of tea. The offer sounded tempting, even exciting—but it wasn’t what I wanted anymore.“No,” I finally said. “I’ve learned enough. Now I want to learn something else—about home, about being a mother, about being a Luna who’s worthy of you and of them.”Hayden smiled and reached for my hand, squeezing it gently. “If that’s what you want, I won’t push you.”He lowered his gaze and took a thick folder from his lap. Inside was a folded letter, its seal glinting faintly in the morn

Chapter: El Día del Cruce de CaminosPhoebeHabían pasado tres años desde aquella mañana tranquila en la pequeña casa de alquiler y, de algún modo, el mundo había dado un giro muy lejano a todos los planes que Hayden y yo habíamos hecho juntos. Pero mientras me miraba en el espejo esa mañana —contemplando mi vientre redondeado y la leve palidez de mis mejillas—, me di cuenta de que algunas partes del pasado nunca se marchaban del todo.—Si sigues quedándote ahí de pie, puede que el bebé decida nacer antes de que empiece la ceremonia —bromeó Finley, riéndose mientras recogía una invitación de graduación de la mesa.Solté un lento suspiro, con una mano apoyada en mi vientre.—Solo quiero parecer... un poco normal, Fin. Es su gran día.—Normal es un término relativo. Estás embarazada de tres meses y sigues llevando

Chapter: El comienzo de Thunder BitePhoebeHa pasado un mes desde que todo finalmente se asentó; desde aquella tarde llena de esperanzas y un tranquilo alivio en nuestra pequeña casa, desde que el mundo pareció detenerse solo para dejarnos respirar de nuevo.Los días que siguieron encontraron un nuevo ritmo: pacífico, simple y real.Esta mañana, Hayden me pidió que me sentara con él en el porche, bajo un suave manto de luz solar. Me observó detenidamente durante un largo rato antes de hablar en voz baja.—¿No quieres continuar tus estudios en la academia, Phoebe?Vacilé, contemplando mi taza de té. La oferta sonaba tentadora, incluso emocionante, pero ya no era lo que quería.—No —dije finalmente—. Ya he aprendido suficiente. Ahora quiero aprender otra cosa: sobre el hogar, sobre ser madre, sobre ser una Luna que sea digna de ti y de ellos.Hayden sonri&oac

Chapter: La Cuarta Marca: Zion GlassPhoebeAcababa de dejar la tetera sobre la mesa cuando algo se tensó en mi interior. No era miedo; era más bien como una onda cálida que subía desde el bajo vientre y se extendía por todo mi pecho. Quizá fuera la temporada de apareamiento de los lobos que Hayden mencionó ayer. O tal vez mi pequeño cachorro empezaba a expresarse con mayor claridad.Phoenix probablemente se estaría volviendo loco en este momento. Tyra estaba en su etapa más agresiva y, si tuviera que adivinar, la habitación de Phoenix ya debía de parecer el escenario de una batalla.Sonreí para mis adentros, frotando mi vientre cuando mi cachorro dio una patada en respuesta.Hayden me rodeó con sus brazos desde atrás, apoyando la barbilla en mi hombro.—¿En qué piensas, cielo?—Me da lástima Phoenix —dije, dejando la tetera a un lado—. Tyra lo ha estado atacando sin parar. Él quería venir corriendo aquí, pero le dije que voy a ir contigo a los grandes almacenes. No puede esconderse para siempre.Hayden soltó una carcaja

Chapter: La Mañana TranquilaPhoebeLa pequeña casa que alquilamos estaba a las afueras del pueblo, no muy lejos de un pequeño lago cuya superficie siempre brillaba con un tono anaranjado cada tarde. A veces pensaba que Hayden había elegido este lugar a propósito, para que yo pudiera por fin respirar después de todo lo que había pasado. Sin ruidos, sin caos. Solo el viento y el suave zumbido de los insectos.Hayden acababa de terminar de pintar la valla trasera. Tenía las mangas arremangadas y la cara empapada de sudor, pero podía ver la determinación en sus ojos.—Esta valla va a marcar el límite de tu pequeño jardín —dijo, dejando el pincel en el cubo—. ¿No dijiste que querías plantar fresias?Me abracé a mí misma, tiritando un poco por el frío de la mañana a pesar de que no había nieve.—Solo espero que no se mueran.

Chapter: El Encuentro de los VínculosPhoebePor fin estaba en casa.Después de todos esos meses fingiendo ser Phoenix y estudiando en la academia, había regresado al lugar donde todo empezó. Nuestra casa se erigía silenciosa en el borde del bosque de pinos que enmarcaba la frontera oriental del territorio de Mystic Guardian. Solía resultarme pequeña, pero ahora… se sentía como el lugar más seguro del mundo después de todo lo que había pasado.El director Hartman me había dado permiso para posponer mis estudios durante tres meses. Dijo que era para ayudarme a recuperarme.Sin embargo, yo sabía la verdad: quería darme tiempo para afrontar lo que ya no podía ignorarse. Estaba embarazada.

Chapter: Caminos separadosHaydenEl cuerpo de Phoebe se quedó flácido en mis brazos. Por un segundo, el tiempo simplemente... se detuvo.—¡Phoebe!Se me quebró la voz al mirar su rostro pálido. Su respiración era superficial, apenas perceptible. La voz aterrorizada de Tyra resonó a mi espalda, seguida por el ajetreo de pasos de quienes llamaban a los médicos. Pero yo no podía pensar en nada más que en una sola cosa:¿Qué demonios le había pasado?Minutos después, Phoebe ya estaba en la sala médica entre bastidores. Yo caminaba de un lado a otro en el exterior, inquieto. Mis manos no dejaban de temblar; no de miedo, sino por una culpa que me ardía como ácido en el pecho. Debería haber estado allí para ella. Debería haberla protegido.Tyra apareció con rostro preocupado.—¿Cómo está? &m

Chapter: Dorian's CurseLuluI had to find a safe, reinforced place inside the pack house to hide Elijah—somewhere magic couldn’t easily break through.My feet pounded against the ground as I ran along the perimeter of the stone fortress. Up ahead, I spotted a low side window of the Great Hall that had been left slightly open to let in the morning air.With a powerful leap, I burst through the window, landing hard in the dim corridor leading towards the residential wing.The moment my feet touched the polished floor, I shifted back into my human form, panting as I held the trembling Elijah tightly against my chest.I sprinted down the corridor, heading straight for Dorian’s room.He could protect Elijah.But before I reached the heavy wooden door leading to his wing, panicked voices echoed from the main staircase.I rounded the corner and nearly crashed into Dorian as he rushed down the stairs.His face was pale, and his eyes were filled with a panic I rarely saw.“Lulu!” he called, breathless.His gaze imme

Chapter: RunLuluThe deep, deliberate claw marks under baby Elijah’s cot sent a massive rush of adrenaline surging through me. I shot up straight away, my heart hammering with worry at the thought that the Dark Sorcerer might’ve already slipped into the room.“Elijah…” I muttered, my voice shaking as I bent back over him.I checked my son thoroughly, making sure he was okay. I felt his tiny hands, his little limbs, then gently stroked his chin with my thumb, right where those small white tips were just starting to poke through his gums.He seemed completely fine — actually perfect. His big, innocent eyes followed my every move with this weird calm that no normal baby should have. He wasn’t crying or fussing; he just let out soft little breaths that still smelled of milk.When I carefully lifted him from the cot, my fingers brushed against something hard and gritty scattered across his bedding. I frowned and pulled back the soft blanket. Tucked in the folds of the sheet were several small shards o

Chapter: CrackLuluThe next second, my eyes widened as I watched the surface of the jewellery slowly change. The shiny silver colour gradually dulled, replaced by a deep, inky black, as if invisible ink was seeping out from inside the ring.“What… what’s this?” Rohan asked, the worry lines back on his face.“This is a Dark Sorcerer membership ring I used to own,” Dorian explained. “It detects the presence of other Dark Sorcerers. The colour changes like you just saw.”Dorian pointed at the ring, which had now turned completely pitch black, like a lump of coal.“This colour change proves one thing,” he continued, staring at me sharply. “The Dark Sorcerers aren’t just getting closer. They’re already here. The group your guards let camp in our territory. One of them has to be them.”My blood ran cold instantly. Seer Esthenel’s warning echoed loudly in my head. One small mistake could trigger a massive bloodbath.We’d just let the enemy into our own backyard because we’d been careless.Panic tried to

Chapter: Next Forty-eight HoursLuluI couldn’t let fear get the better of me while Caspian wasn’t by my side. Taking a deep breath, I forced down the anxiety that had been gripping my chest for the sake of Elijah and the entire pack.The nerves running through my body suddenly turned cold, replaced by complete focus as I locked my gaze on Beta Rohan.“Calm down, Rohan,” I said, making sure every word that left my lips sounded firm and steady. “Panicking will only cloud our judgement. We can’t come up with a proper defence plan if our minds are filled with fear.”Hearing my calm, controlled voice, some of the tension seemed to leave Rohan’s shoulders. His ragged breathing gradually steadied, influenced by the aura of composure I deliberately projected.As Luna, I had to be an example for the pack while our Alpha was away.“My apologies, Luna,” Rohan said, straightening his posture. “You’re right. Based on the initial reports, those witches are moving quickly. I suggest that one of the Gammas and I head to the wester

Chapter: InterruptionLulu“Did I ever say I agreed?”I teased Caspian playfully. He became a completely different man whenever desire took hold of him.The next second, my back was pressed against the cold wall as his eyes glowed a deep blue, filled with the passion of a wolf caught in rut.My heart fluttered wildly. I could feel the same challenge stirring inside my chest. A pull I'd been holding onto ever since I first met Morpheus in this very room.“You know what? I actually prefer it when you're in Morpheus mode rather than Caspian. Your water elemental magic is so cold that I don't feel nearly as overheated trying to keep up with you.” My fingers traced across his broad chest.“Well then, if that's what you want.”Caspian shifted into Morpheus's form. He didn't really look that different, except his hair was longer than the appearance he usually wore as Caspian. He used Dylan's appearance as a disguise while acting as the Alpha of Sapphire Water Pack.“You like it?”“Yeah. Especially when you frown

Chapter: Alpha's PheromoneLuluThe moment my eyes fluttered open that morning, the cold air of the forest brushed against my skin. I quickly adjusted my clothes and tidied a few things after feeding Elijah.At the mouth of the cave, Caspian’s tall figure was already standing there. The exhaustion and tangled emotions from last night had vanished from his piercing blue eyes, replaced once again by that cold, sharp gaze of a supreme Alpha.His dominant Alpha aura rolled off him as he gave instructions to one of Sapphire Water’s finest Gammas.“Sweep the path ahead. Make sure the route’s clear and keep an eye on even the slightest movement,” Caspian ordered Gamma Oliver. His voice was low, commanding, and left no room for argument.Gamma Oliver bowed deeply before disappearing into the misty trees in the blink of an eye.I walked over to Dorian, who was trying to get up in the corner of the cave. His body still hadn’t fully recovered, and his movements looked stiff.Before he could lose his balance, Gamma Timothy
