Aria's pov….

I was so hungry

That was what kept me awake.

I shifted slowly in bed, one hand instinctively resting over my stomach. The room was still dim, early morning light just beginning to seep through the curtains.

Beside me, Kaelen was still sleeping, his breathing deep and even.

For a moment, I simply watched him.

He looked much happier and still young as ever.

A faint kick pressed against my palm.

I smiled.

“Alright,” I whispered softly. “I hear you.”

I kissed Kaelen's forehead and car

  • The Alpha king and the Hunt   Chapter 028: new territories new problems

    Nyra’s POVI slowly rose to my feet, my eyes fixed on the tree line. Those glowing eyes hadn’t moved neither had we.The fire crackled quietly between us. Its warm light barely reached beyond the clearing, leaving the wolves hidden beneath the cover of darkness.Beside me, Caelum rested one hand on the hilt of his sword.Aria had already nocked an arrow onto her bow.The wolves growled again and then they stepped into the firelight.One.Two.Five.Ten.By the Goddess… There were at least fifteen of them, all large wolves bigger than ordinary rogues.Their ribs showed through their patchy fur, but their eyes burned with hunger. They circled us slowly.“They’re starving,” I whispered.Caelum nodded. “Which makes them dangerous.”Very dangerous. A starving wolf didn’t think, it only hunted.One wrong move and we’d be surrounded. The largest wolf stepped forward. A deep scar ran across its muzzle.It bared its teeth, it’s growl vibrated through the clearing then it charged.“Move!” Cael

  • The Alpha king and the Hunt   Chapter 027: Hunting fishes

    Caelum’s POVI had never crossed the border before.I didn’t expect I would cross it like this, without my parents and without a pack of warriors surrounding me.Not without knowing that the moment I stepped over that invisible line, I was leaving the protection of the Alpha King’s territory.Ahead of us stretched an unfamiliar world and behind us was home..I tightened my grip on the steering wheel as the car rolled toward the stone marker separating our land from the neighboring country.The marker was old. A weathered slab carved with the crest of both territories.Years of wind and rain had worn away most of its markings.Even so, it stood proudly as a reminder of old alliances and old wars.Aria leaned against the passenger window.“So were here ” she said “This is it.” Nyra saidI nodded. “This is it.”Aria grinned. “I expected it to be more dramatic like a huge marking of sorts.”“You wanted lightning?” I asked She glanced at my hands. “Maybe not.”I laughed.The guards st

  • The Alpha king and the Hunt   Chapter 026: Doing it Alone

    Luna Aria’s POVI stood outside the nursery, gently rocking my daughter in my arms. She was asleep and looking do peaceful, completely unaware of the troubles the world carried outside these walls.Her tiny fingers wrapped around mine and I smiled softly. “You chose quite a time to be born.”She yawned and then settled deeper against my chest.Just then someone knocked “ Luna?” “Come in.”One of the servants stepped inside, bowing respectfully.“Breakfast is ready.”“I’ll be down shortly.” She nodded before leaving.I glanced toward my daughter once more.“I suppose your father is already waiting.”As if she understood me, the little girl stretched and let out the tiniest squeak.I laughed. “You already have him wrapped around your finger.”Not that I blamed him she had all of us wrapped around her finger.The dining hall was unusually peaceful. Kaelen sat at the head of the table reading reports. Several council members occupied the seats nearby.“Morning” I mumbled and kissed his c

  • The Alpha king and the Hunt   Chapter 025: The hunt begins

    Nyra’s POVEverywhere was still dark when we finished the meeting.I adjusted the strap of my travel bag across my shoulder and it was suprisingly light, the witch thr Luna used must be very skilled.“You’re having second thoughts?.”I turned around and Caelum stood a few paces away with his own backpack slung over one shoulder.His sword rested comfortably against his hip, and despite the early hour, he looked annoyingly handsome like he was going for a runway show instead of a mission.His silver hair shimmered beneath the morning light.For a brief second, my eyes drifted to his hands.The same hands that had blasted me with crimson lightning only days ago.He noticed. “They haven’t sparked again.” He said “I wasn’t looking.” I lied and looked away “Liar.”“I was checking if they were normal.”He grinned. “So you were looking.”I rolled my eyes. “I already regret agreeing to travel with you.”“You agreed before knowing I’d be this charming.”“I don’t remember that part.”“Selecti

  • The Alpha king and the Hunt   Chapter 024: Saying goodbye

    Caelum’s POVI knew something was going on the moment a messenger interrupted my training. I lowered my sword and the messenger bowed.“Luna Aria wishes to see you immediately.”“Am I in trouble?”The messenger wisely refused to answer which was a sure sign that I absolutely was.The pack was peaceful again. The rogue attack had ended several days ago and the few dead pack mates had been buried.The wounded were still recovering but life was slowly returning to normal at least on the surface.Underneath?I wasn’t so sure mThere was darkness creeping through the world and causing things like the Moon Goddess disappearing and my strange lightning, even Nyra’s curse.Nothing was normal anymore. As I crossed the pack grounds, I spotted Uncle Kael walking toward the meeting hall.He immediately looked unimpressed.“You’re summoned too?”“Unfortunately.”He groaned.“That’s never a good sign.”“Nope.”We exchanged a look and then continued walking suddenly a familiar voice suddenly called

  • The Alpha king and the Hunt   Chapter 023: Catch the demon

    Nyra’s POVThe first thing I noticed was that the pack had changed, not physically I mean. The walls were the same, the training grounds were the same even the warriors still laughed too loudly.Uncle Kael still barked orders like everyone was deaf.nCaelum was still irritatingly handsome and sneaking grapes to me daily.The change was something else, even my mum had it, The rogue attack had ended and a new baby had been born.The pack seemed happy, my mum baked cookies everyday and gave it to the Luna.I sat near one of the kitchen windows, helping mum sort some herbs while pretending not to think about everything that had happened.Which was impossible because every time I closed my eyes I saw the black wolf and lightning from Caelum.I Saw Caelum standing there with red sparks dancing across his hands. No matter how many times I replayed it, it never made sense.Wolves didn’t shoot lightning, at least they weren’t supposed to.His mum was the first wolf to ever have powers and th

  • The Alpha king and the Hunt   chapter seventeen: choice of wolves

    (Aria’s POV) The night smelled of blood and smoke. The ground was churned with dirt and crimson where wolves had fallen, and the cries of the wounded carried into the trees like a haunting dirge. I could still hear the echo of Kaelen’s growl in my head, the way his voice had commanded not just me,

    Kaelen…The most damning discovery came as dawn bled into the world. In a hollow near the water we found an altar, and on its stone a smear of ink and blood arranged in a sigil the old priests used to call storms. It was not random runes but a pattern: a center point ringed by smaller crescents—the

    Aria’s POV) The kitchens were a cave of warmth at that hour, a place of steady, honest labor where night swallowed the rest of the keep and only the hearth remained witness. We’d finished the last of the evening pots; the clatter of serving had faded hours ago. I liked the quiet the way heat thinn

    Kaelen’s POV — I stood on the balcony at dawn, winter light silvering the world. Beneath me, the fortress moved—soldiers running drills, servants hauling supplies, mothers corralling children whose eyes were too old for their faces. The watchers in the tower scanned the lines of trees beyond the
