MasukKaida Pov The laughter of my baby could be heard in the room. It sounded so sweet and cute that it could melt the strongest hearts. I sat on the couch, trying to rein in my laughter as I watched my husband, Kabir, struggle to change my daughter, Kehlani’s diaper. But no matter how he tried, the mischievous little girl either turned or tried to crawl away, making her father grit his teeth in annoyance. One moment, he’d look like he had had enough and was about to hit her, but the next second, he’d be laughing happily at her tactics. I shook my head as I looked at Kehlani’s chubby face and little butt. She really had her father wrapped around her little finger. “Little princess, just hold on. Can you just stay still and let me cover your little butt?!” Kabir’s roar echoed through the room again, followed by Kehlani’s toothy laughter. Then, as if he couldn’t take it anymore, Kabir raised his head and showed me a face covered in baby powder. He looked at me like he’d faint if I did
Ken PovI sat in the wheelchair as Americ pushed me, albeit reluctantly. Though I was in so much pain, my face remained blank as if I could feel nothing.Americ had taken a quiet road where we wouldn’t come across any pack members, and I couldn’t be more grateful for that. I didn’t think I could bear the hatred on their faces now.My fingers clutched the papers tightly, yet they still continued to tremble. To be honest, I didn’t know why I was looking for Audrey. Maybe… I just needed a lie that could stop me from completely breaking down.“We’re here.”Americ’s voice jolted me out of my thoughts. I immediately looked up and saw the house I had given Audrey when I brought her back.I stared at the house in a daze. It was like I could still remember the excitement. The love and warmth I had felt when I saw the tears of happiness in Audrey’s eyes after hearing I had put the house in her name.My face trembled, but I refused to let the tears fall. I couldn’t cry anymore. I couldn’t.Fuck!
Ken PovIt’s been two days since I regained consciousness, but I remained in a daze. I stared at the ceiling blankly. My mind was clear. I could hear sounds and move, but somehow, everything around me felt unreal.It felt like I was surrounded by darkness, and my world had changed the moment I woke up. According to the healer, I had been unconscious for a week, which means a week had passed since the big war. A week had passed since I lost everything, including my left eye and right leg.The room felt strangely quiet. There were no guards greeting me, no elders waiting to ask for orders, and no warriors standing outside my door. For the first time, I truly felt alone.My body trembled as anguish filled my heart. The urge to burst into tears filled me, but I couldn’t even cry if I wanted to. I could only stare dumbly at the ceiling.Where had I gone wrong exactly?How did I lose to him when I had planned everything thoroughly? I had spent nights and days making plans, but everything fe
Kabir Pov A heartbreaking scene was playing out before me, yet not an ounce of emotion appeared on my face. One hand pressed against my blood-soaked shirt while my eyes rested indifferently on Old Man Alaska, who sat on the ground holding the body of the son I had just killed. Blood continued pouring from the wound in his throat. The old man desperately tried to stop it with both hands, but it was useless. Beside him stood Ken. He stared blankly at the scene before him. He must have been shocked as he had never expected their carefully planned attack to end like this. Although I was injured because I had chosen to take that wound instead of losing my life… looking at the result before me, it had been worth it. My jaw tightened after I finally managed to stop the blood flowing from my wound. I stood there with my blade still dripping with blood while my eyes glowed as red as the blood staining the ground. Just then, Ken finally came back to his senses. He glared at me with burni
Kabir PovThe battleground descended into chaos. Loud growls mixed with painful cries echoed through the sky. After my growl, my warriors who had been silent exploded into action. The ones who hadn’t shifted did, and like a tide, they all rushed into the fight.The warriors behind Ken weren’t pushovers either. They let out deafening growls and met the brutality of my warriors with their own.Standing tall in the middle of the chaos, my wolf’s red eyes shone with bloodthirst. I let out growls as I tore necks away from heads. Most of them didn’t even have the chance to react before they were torn into two.I moved through the battlefield with ease. Every step was brutal. Every attack was wild. This was the way of the North.A gray wolf pounced toward me with his jaws wide open. I didn’t dodge. I welcomed him.My canines sank deep into his neck and his bones snapped between my teeth.At the same time, my front paw swept sideways and slammed another wolf hard into the ground. The force of
Alpha Kabir Pov Noises could be heard around me. It was already late at night, but none of the warriors had fallen asleep. It was like everyone was waiting for that big moment. The secret base had been taken over, so my warriors and I were waiting here. I knew Ken and his warriors would surely come here. I stood by the window of one of the available rooms, the air around me calm but dangerous enough that even the people waiting behind me dared not breathe too loudly. I narrowed my eyes as I watched Benson leading some of the warriors to treat the serious injuries of the others, while the ones with lesser injuries didn’t need to be treated as their wounds would heal in a few hours anyway. “Alpha, we visited the Alaska home but found no one. It seems Elder Alaska had also escaped to meet with Alpha Ken and the others.” My fingers, which were tapping on the window, paused. My eyes became colder, but then… they became calm once again. “Hm.” This was actually not a surprise to me. I
Kaida Pov “What do you want, Audrey?” I swirled to address the person behind me. Who else would it be if it's not the one true love of my husband—Audrey Stanley? She stood in front of me proudly as if she had won, or maybe she had. Her eyes that glared at me contained the usual mockery which I
Kaida Pov “Mama!” I twirled around at the excited call of my son, and a smile bloomed on my face as I watched him run towards me with a carved toy in his hand.“See, Mama. Papa carved little Leo.” He giggled excitedly as he showed me the toy that looked like him.I smiled gently and nodded and ju
Kaida’s Pov“What?!” Ken exclaimed in confusion.My heart skipped. I raised my head, forcing the tears back.“You heard me. Leo…” My lips trembled. “He—he is dying.”The words scraped painfully out of my throat.Silence filled the line. I could hear my uneven breathing and the faint sound of his.M
Kaida’s Pov“Luna, after a thorough test and research, it is concluded that what little Leo has isn’t just a cold or any heart disease but Wolf Heart Disease.”The room fell silent.For a moment, I forgot how to breathe.I swallowed and reached for the result sheet. My fingers trembled as I took it
