POV: Kael

For a single, suspended moment, the battlefield forgot how to breathe.

Steel lowered. Claws stilled. Even the wounded stopped their groaning as if the instinct to survive had been overridden by something far older, something that did not care whether we lived or died.

It cared only that we witnessed.

The fracture in the courtyard widened with a grinding roar, stone splitting apart as though the earth itself had been forced to yield. Dust surged upward in thick waves, swallowing the lo

  • Alpha’s Deceptive Mate   Chapter 130: The Blood of the First Luna

    POV: LioraMalakar's words echoed across the Heart Chamber long after his voice faded, each syllable settling over the ancient sanctuary with the crushing weight of an inevitable prophecy. His enormous form continued emerging from the shattered prison, forcing apart stone that had remained sealed since the dawn of the First Kingdom. Every movement sent violent tremors racing through the mountain, while crimson fire poured from the widening cracks beneath his feet. The Moonstone pulsed frantically above us, its silver brilliance flickering as darkness struggled to swallow the blessing that had protected the world for thousands of years.A cold sensation swept through my body the instant his crimson eyes settled upon me. They carried neither surprise nor curiosity. Recognition filled that ancient gaze, as though he had known my face long before I was born. The certainty behind his smile unsettled me more than the immense power radiating from his towering figure.Kael stepped forward unt

  • Alpha’s Deceptive Mate   Chapter 129: The rising of Malakar

    POV: LIORAThe colossal hand gripping the edges of the shattered prison tightened with terrifying strength, sending fractures racing through the ancient stone like lightning splitting the night sky. Every crack released another torrent of crimson mist that swallowed the Heart Chamber in an eerie haze, turning the silver glow of the Moonstone into little more than a distant beacon struggling against an endless tide of darkness. The entire mountain groaned beneath the strain, and the ground trembled so violently that broken pillars collapsed into the abyss surrounding the ancient sanctuary.A crushing force pressed against my chest, making every breath feel heavier than the last. The fragment sleeping inside my blood responded instantly, surging through my veins with blazing silver energy that spread beneath my skin. The mark behind my shoulder burned with such intensity that I instinctively reached toward it, only for the Blade of Ardyn to blaze brighter in my grasp. The weapon hummed

  • Alpha’s Deceptive Mate   Chapter 128: The Prison Beneath the Moon

    POV: KaelThe voice rolled through the Heart Chamber with such overwhelming force that the mountain itself seemed to recoil from its presence. Ancient pillars groaned beneath the crushing pressure, while rivers of silver light flowing through the cavern darkened around their edges, as though even the blessing of the Moon Goddess struggled against the power awakening beneath the shattered seal.Every instinct within me erupted at once.My wolf threw itself against the walls of my mind with a fury I had never experienced before. Every hair along my arms stood on end, while the bond connecting me to Liora blazed hotter than it ever had, urging us closer together as though our combined strength offered the only protection against whatever had spoken from the darkness.Ardyn's grip tightened around his sword.For the first time since meeting the legendary king, I saw genuine concern shadow his expression.His calm had vanished.His confidence remained, yet something far older than fear res

  • Alpha’s Deceptive Mate   Chapter 127: The Throne of Shadows

    POV: LioraThe journey through the buried city ended at the edge of a cliff that overlooked the deepest place beneath the First Kingdom, and the sight waiting beyond stole every remaining breath from my lungs.The Heart Chamber spread beneath us like the center of another world. Its ceiling disappeared into darkness, while rivers of silver light flowed through enormous cracks in the stone like veins carrying life through the mountain. Countless pillars circled the vast chamber, each carved with ancient wolves kneeling before the Moon Goddess. Suspended high above the center floated an enormous crystal unlike anything I had ever imagined. The Moonstone glowed with breathtaking beauty, its surface shifting between silver, blue, and white as streams of pure energy spiraled around it like living stars.Beneath that magnificent light stood another throne.Unlike the throne we had discovered above, this one radiated an entirely different presence. Black stone rose from the earth in twisted

  • Alpha’s Deceptive Mate   Chapter 126: The Last King’s Burden

    POV: KaelThe world seemed to lose its balance the moment the ancient warrior removed his helm.Every story I had heard as a child suddenly became real.Every legend whispered around winter fires.Every tale dismissed by scholars who believed time had buried the truth forever.They all stood before us in flesh and blood.Ardyn.The first king.The warrior who forged peace among rival packs.The Alpha whose name had survived thousands of years after his kingdom vanished from history.For several heartbeats, silence ruled the ruined city beneath the mountain.Even the distant tremors seemed to pause as though the mountain itself recognized its first ruler.The silver-haired king studied us with calm, unreadable eyes. Time had carved wisdom into every line of his face, while countless battles had left their mark across the scars visible above his armor. Blood stained the edges of his silver breastplate, and several deep cracks ran across the ancient metal, revealing fresh wounds that sho

    POV: LioraMatthias’s voice lingered through the corridor long after the words faded, wrapping around the ancient passage like smoke drifting through ruins.A cold feeling settled deep within my chest.Every instinct I possessed reacted immediately.Danger, hatred and violence.The bond connecting me to Kael tightened as his wolf responded to the same threat. Power moved through him like a gathering storm, controlled yet fierce enough to tear apart mountains if given a reason.The corridor stretched endlessly ahead of us.Silver flames burned along the walls, illuminating carvings older than any kingdom still standing. Images covered every surface. Ancient battles. Moon-blessed rulers. Great cities that once dominated the continent. Massive beasts bowing before crowned wolves.History surrounded us.History and warnings.The deeper we walked, the more the mountain seemed alive.The stone pulsed faintly beneath our feet.A steady rhythm.Almost like a heartbeat.I tightened my grip on

    POV: LioraThe mountain did not sleep.Even in darkness, the ancient city breathed around us.I could hear it in the distant crack of steel against steel far below the lower terraces, in the echo of hurried footsteps through stone corridors older than most kingdoms, in the low chanting of priests s

    POV: KaelThe moment we stepped fully into the circle, the world stopped pretending this was still a battlefield.The sound collapsed inward.Not vanished, but pulled tight, as if everything beyond the edge of the forming seal had been forced into silence. I could still see movement at the edges of

    POV: LioraI woke to the scent of cedar smoke and crushed wolfsbane.For a moment I did not know where I was.Pain drifted through me first, dull and heavy, before memory returned in jagged fragments. The courtyard. Matthias. Bram’s betrayal. The arrow. Kael’s arms around me. His voice breaking in
