My tears kept streaming down my cheeks.
I couldn’t make sense of Enzo’s accusations; not a single word!
But deep down, I knew I should have noticed the signs sooner, like the way his eyes changed color whenever his emotions threatened to get the better of him.
Soren and I had agreed to meet at the lake because it lay closest to the Eastern Pack’s territory. A
A few hours after Rora left the manor, my husband finally returned.I was curled up on the couch with a book when his towering figure stopped in front of me.The moment I looked up, I noticed the redness in his eyes. Rage simmered beneath them.“Rora told me you humiliated her earlier,” he said, his voice as cold as winter.I slowly closed my book and met his gaze. “Idon’teven know her. She showed up out of nowhere and expected me to follow her around theterritory. If she was embarrassed because I refused, thenthat’son you for not introducing her properly.I’mnot in the habit of following complete strangers.”“She belongs to one of the most influential clans in Thornfell,” he said sharply. “Despite everything on her plate, she still made time to welcome you. The least you could’ve done was show her some respect.&r
“I don’t have a mistress!” Kaelen’s jaw flexed.“Oh, really?” I challenged. “Then where did you spend the night?”A slow, infuriating smile tugged at the corner of his lips.“Are you jealous?” he asked, his tone shifting to amusement. “Did you miss having me in our bed?”Heat rushed to my face, though I refused to let him see it.“Don’t flatter yourself! I’m simply reminding you that I’m not some random female wolf you married. If you’re accustomed to warming other beds, that won’t continue in this marriage!”He reached up and gently cupped my chin. Amusement flickered in his golden eyes as he leaned closer.My breath caught in my throat when I realized how little distance remained between our faces.“You want me all to yourself,” he murmured. Warm breath g
A sharp knock on the door startled me awake. I shot upright in bed, my heart hammering as instinct flooded me with fear before my mind caught up.“Lady Kira?”I let out a quiet sigh of relief when I recognized Martha’s voice on the other side of the door.“Come in!” I called.She stepped inside, carrying a pitcher of water. After handing me a glass, she crossed to the wardrobe and began selecting a dress for me.“How was your night?” she asked as though it were any ordinary morning. “You have five minutes to get ready. Alpha Kaelen is waiting for you in the dining hall.”The mention of my husband’s name made my fingers drift to my lips. Heat spread through me, as though his scent still lingered on my skin.Then I rolled my eyes.His scent hadn’t been the only one clinging to him last night. Another woman&rsquo
Alpha Kaelen’s expression darkened as he easily forced me back onto the bed.I glared at him, unable to look away as the mate bond throbbed violently between us. Every instinct urged our wolves toward each other, but all I felt was disgust.“W-what was that?” he asked.Our wolves had recognized one another. But I refused to let mine answer the call.“You...” I whispered, unable to hide my disbelief. “How are you the mate the Moon Goddess chose for me?”“Mate?” His eyes are narrowing.Despite the undeniable pull between us, my anger surged back with full force. With the reputation he carried throughout the territories, there was no way I would let him treat me like this. He literally smelled of another woman!“I’m not going to sleep with someone like you!” I snapped. “You reek of another she-wolf!”
[Kira]After the wedding ceremony, Alpha Kaelen left the manor. His beta had summoned him for pack matters, though I had no desire to know what demanded his attention.I still wasn’t certain what fate I had thrown myself into. Still, one thing remained clear: I would find a way to convince my husband to let me continue my studies at the Lycan Academy.Martha prepared a warm bath for me, and I couldn’t shake the anxiety curling in my stomach over what might happen later that night.“Lady Kira...” Martha began softly as she poured warm water over my shoulders. “Forgive me for asking, but I still can’t believe you chose to come to Thornfell. Didn’t you love Sir Zev? He must be grieving your marriage.”“Please... don’t speak of him again.”She fell silent for a moment before gathering the courage to contin
[Lucian] “What?!” my father roared as the two warriors delivered their report the moment they returned to the pack house. They had only just come back from escorting Kira to Thornfell’s border. “Alpha Kaelen personally escorted Kira and Martha,” one warrior reported, his voice trembling with fear. “No one else was permitted to cross into Thornfell’s territory.” “They also instructed us to hand this over after ordering us to leave the border,” a servant said, stepping forward with an envelope. Inside was the marriage contract bearing the names of Kira and Kaelen Cross. Attached to it was an official treaty from Thornfell declaring that, with Blackwood having fulfilled its obligation by sending Kira as the bride, peace between the two packs would remain intact. “They also sent several boxes,” another warrior added, gesturing toward the crates being carried in behind him. “Gemstones, mostly. Other valuables from their territory. A gesture of good faith, they said.” “Alpha...” I said
Muriel’s eyes brightened the moment she spotted Enzo approaching. At the same time, thunder rumbled overhead, and a flash of lightning split the darkened sky, as if the heavens themselves were reacting to what was about to unfold. “There! That’s the shadow guard Gwen has been flirting with! She’s h
Freya’s jaw tightened, her eyes hardening with barely concealed anger. “How did it happen?”“Don’t act as though you actually care about Ned’s life.” Luna Rosalia let out a cold laugh. “We both know you only used him to escape your mise
Meanwhile… A day passed before Luna Rosalia made her way to Alpha Adrian’s territory. She had to know her daughter’s condition. Zaya and several guards accompanied her. “I want to see my daughter,” Rosalia said the second Adrian appeared before them. The Alpha silently guided them toward a seclud
Seeing the photo left a bitter ache in my chest.Icouldn’tbear looking at it any longer, so I returned to the dormitory building. The moment I stepped inside, the House Matron noticed me.Unfortunately, Icouldn’tstop the tears from gat
