เข้าสู่ระบบ~AMARISI didn't step a single foot outside the heavy mahogany double doors of the master suite throughout the rest of that day.The fortress around us had remained in a state of suffocating lockdown, the distant, muffled shouting of pack guards and the occasional heavy rumble of vehicles echoing from the lower courtyards. But inside the sanctuary of the bedroom, Alpha Varg had built a silent, defensive wall against the chaos.He had made sure the pack nurse returned under heavy guard to deliver the proper antiseptic treatment for my torn scalp, and he personally ensured that every single meal throughout the rest of that day was delivered to my bedside exactly on time. He had watched over me like a dark, possessive shadow, his massive frame shielding my weak body from the political firestorm he had provoked downstairs.But the stolen peace of the night couldn't freeze the terminal clock winding down in my chest lines.The next morning, the fragile illusion of safety completely shatter
~AMARISThe blinding light of the fireplace didn't bring any warmth, it felt like a wall of roaring, dangerous flames trapping me in the dark.I was backed against the headboard of Alpha Varg’s massive canopy bed, the clean white bandage gauze around my head throbbing with a sharp, heavy pain.Suddenly, the heavy mahogany double doors of the master suite didn't just slide open…they were violently shattered off their hinges. Ember broke into the room. She was completely unraveled, her face swollen, but her eyes weren't crying anymore. They were burning with a terrifying, wild rage that looked entirely monstrous. In her right hand, a long, silver-tipped combat knife caught the flickering glare of the hearth, the sharp blade gleaming with a lethal promise.My eyes widened in pure, unadulterated horror. My vocal cords were completely frozen, the dry sand of the Silver Decay clogging my throat as I tried to scream for Commander Kael or the guards outside.Before I could even attempt to t
~VARGThe echo of the heavy cedar doors slamming shut behind me was the last normal sound to grace the grand council chamber.I stood in the center of the vast, circular room, the freezing draft from the high slit windows whipping against my collar, carrying the bitter scent of pine and impending ruin. The seven elder alphas sat arranged in a rigid crescent before me, their ancient leather coats draped over the high backs of their mahogany thrones like shrouds.These were the men who had spent their entire lives treating our pack heritage as an absolute religion, prioritizing the ledger lines of ancient laws over the beating hearts of their own bloodlines.The air in the chamber was already thick, saturated with a heavy, suffocating static as the chief elder raised his iron gavel. He didn't strike the wood, he merely held it steady, his blind white eyes staring straight through my soul with an unyielding, clinical severity that demanded an execution of the law."Alpha Varg," the old m
~VARGThe realization that my own blood had pulled the pin on my house didn't make me panic. It froze the remaining heat in my veins into an unyielding, lethal armor.I spun away from the grand floor-to-ceiling windows, my combat boots silent against the floor as I strode toward the mahogany nightstand. I grabbed the sleek plastic receiver of the internal intercom, dialed the private security frequency, and slammed the button down."Standby by the western arch," I yelled into the speaker, my voice a low, gravelly snap that left absolutely no room for hesitation. "Send Commander Kael and Lieutenant Jaxon to my master suite immediately. Fully armed. Double the watch on the internal corridor. Move!"I slammed the receiver back onto its cradle, the plastic cracking slightly under the pressure of my scarred hand. I didn't wait for a confirmation. The elite guards of the Iron-Howl inner circle didn't ask questions when the Alpha king used that specific, militaristic tone, they simply moved.
~GRAYThere is a profound, almost intoxicating beauty in watching a grand architectural structure collapse from the shadows, especially when you are the one who loosened the foundation bolts.I stood completely pressed into the dark, recessed alcove at the end of the upper hallway, my hands casually shoved into the pockets of my dark trousers, my breathing shallow and silent. The air in the corridor still smelled faintly of burnt copper and spilled herbs from the absolute explosion that had just detonated in the kitchen between Amaris and Ember.From my vantage corner, I had a perfect line of sight through the arched stone doorway, watching the immediate aftermath of the trap I had carefully laid out.Seeing Ember crash out so violently…tearing into the very man who had spent her entire life shielding her from the harsh realities of the pack world, showing her nothing but unyielding royal love…was quite literally the most relaxing thing I had ever experienced.She had been magnificent
~VARGThe air in the kitchen didn't just feel cold after the door slammed shut, it felt entirely depleted, like a chamber after an explosion.My fingers were still clenched into tight fists at my sides, the thick muscles in my forearms throbbing from the sheer, violent restraint it had taken to keep from wrapping my hands around my own daughter’s throat.My chest rose and fell in heavy, ragged rumbles, the rabid beast in my bloodline roaring against the iron bars of my control.Disrespect. Pure, unyielding disrespect thrown directly into the face of the sovereign, right under my own roof. I had spent decades enforcing absolute compliance throughout the borders of the Iron-Howl Pack, breaking the wills of rogue packs and rival alphas without moving a single finger, yet my own blood had just stood across the central counter and called me a whoring failure to my face.I cut my dark eyes down to the girl trembling against my side.Amaris was completely unraveled. Her small, weightless fr
~EMBER The heavy wood of my bedroom door slammed shut, the vibration rattling the glass vanity jars across the room. I hurled my designer heels furiously across the room, watching them thud heavily against the mattress alongside my discarded silk purse. “Finally!” I muttered, the word tasting lik
~AMARIS The blatant greed in his tone made my stomach twist into a hard knot of panic. Before I could call out to anyone nearby, he yanked me forward again, dragging me past the open doorway where Ember had passed through with those two massive Alphas flanking her. As we walked down the hallway,
~AmarisHeat rose between my thighs every second I subconsciously took one step back, his gaze burning into my eyes. Sharp as a sword.With the intimidating edges of his face that left me wondering if he was here to fuck me, or watch me suffer.For a second, my gaze dropped to his chest before I c
~Amaris“Ember, I already told you it's the pool. There is no need to say things like that,” I said weakly, moving back.I'll do anything to avoid that conversation completely. But she swam toward me.“We should go out and mingle with hot male wolves so you can find someone to satisfy your ache. H
