LOGINAfter waiting in the hot line for over two hours at the Council Hall, my spirit is fuming with pure rage to learn from the clerk that Gali has once again changed his mind about the divorce. I am so angry my claws could strangle his big neck right then and there! To break one's spoken word makes his wolf worse than a wild animal. Despite our bad past, my heart had held a tiny bit of respect for the Alpha, but today, my internal thoughts just curse his name up and down the mountain.It takes ages for my lungs to calm down, my breath heavy with anger as my boots storm straight out of the grand Council Hall. If it weren't for Blossom and my sweet triplets waiting for my body at the lodge, my feet would have marched straight into the Blackmoor Crescent Keep to fight his face! What kind of game is his beast playing, agreeing to a divorce and then refusing to sign the scroll? It is outright bullying against a lone female wolf!Taking a transport back to the den, my heart feels another sad pi
Alpha Gali Blackmoor POV“Sandra is not going anywhere outside our borders,” my voice says like pure ice.My words sound super sure to the room.“Huh? Why not, Alpha?” Benjamin looks highly confused. “Her mouth just said her boots are leaving Myhill CrestHALL today.”My eyes are full of deep mockery right now. “Leave the territory without getting a single pack resource in return? That is a very bad deal for a cunning female wolf.”Benjamin scratches his neck fur. “What do your claws mean by that, Gali?”“Her dress keeps coming after my armor for no real reason,” my mouth snaps back angrily. “Her spirit is definitely after our pack resources.”“But my heart does not think Sandra is that kind of bad wolf at all.”“Outer skin can be super deceiving, Benjamin. Every wolf in this territory is just a big actor.”Benjamin hesitates for a short second. “Gali, why does my mind feel like your beast is particularly angry and resentful toward Sandra today?”The secret DNA blood results make my ha
Benjamin gratefully takes the small bottle into his palm, inspecting the contents through the glass. “What is this medicine, Sandra?”My mind hesitates to admit that my own fingers had concocted the medicine from secret forest plants, so my tongue improvises a quick explanation. “I got them from an old wise herbalist wolf in the deep valleys. They work wonders for the nerves; my own body has tried them before. If your pack doctors are skeptical, feel free to consult another high herbalist in Myhill CrestHALL.”“Thank you, Sandra,” Benjamin says super quickly.“No worries. My line won’t be changing my phone number after my boots leave the city. If the little pup runs into serious trouble under the moon, give my device a ring. My claws will help his mind if I can.”Malek’s big eyes remind my heart so much of my sweet Kairo’s face—it is a spiritual connection my soul just cannot ignore. Plus, my name owes their keep a giant debt of fifty million silver coins. My lips might not admit it w
Sandra Ashbourne POV“Has little Malek Thorncrest not woken up from his dark wolf fit yet?” I ask the room, but Alpha Gali Blackmoor remains completely silent, his big lack of response serving as a quiet yes.My lips press together tightly, but my voice presses on anyway. “Did Dr. Benjamin Lawson examine his spirit?”Gali, clearly super irritated by my presence, snaps right back with a deep rumble. “What the heck do you want from my territory, female?!”I purse my lips and get straight to the true point. “Do your claws have a granddad? Or some old high family elder? Someone who doesn’t quite look like your exact frame but has a huge resemblance around the eyes. A tall, lean wolf, looks to be in his late winters, maybe seventies or eighties?”Gali’s brow furrows super deep as his eyes stare right at my face, and my mind knows he recognizes the old wolf instantly.“He came to see my dress at the coffee den today, but my brain didn’t recognize his rank, so I thought I’d ask your own mout
Sandra Ashbourne POV“He is not giving you silver coins right this second, but his claws will give it later,” old Gideon Blackmoor says, his voice sounding super dark and mean. “And your brain will understand the resource deals perfectly when his mouth gets you to talk about the pack terms and lets your eyes see young Malek Thorncrest.”My mind is left utterly baffled by his strange words. Then my confusion gets even deeper because the old alpha suddenly pulls out a giant sack of rare silver pieces and places it right on the table before my dress.“Consider this small token a little gift for our first meeting in the territory,” his mouth says with a sneaky grin.My jaw drops open wide. “What on earth are your claws getting at? My head has absolutely no idea what your spirit is up to right now.”Gideon continues talking fast as though his ears had not heard a single word from my lips. “Let’s keep our little forest encounter between our own two beasts for now. My device will be in touch
Grandfather Gideon POV“Our scouts need to track down this anonymous rogue genius immediately, because that mysterious wolf is our only real salvation to overthrow Gali's power,” my mouth declares firmly to my main pack confidant.“Our elite tracker wolves have been sniffing around every dark forest network, sir, but so far, absolutely nothing has come up to our eyes,” the confidant answers with a highly worried face. “It seems even Alpha Gali himself hasn't sniffed out a single scent or lead on this hacker. Whoever this creature is, they are a total pro beast.”My old jaw clenches tight as my lungs exhale a sharp, angry breath. “Of course they are a pro beast! Do your brains think some random omega would dare to square off with Gali’s claws if they weren’t a master of the web?”My eyes narrow into tiny slits as my thoughts plan a sneaky move. “Go straight onto the dark web channels of the rogue network and reach out to the legendary user known as ‘Baby ET’S Support One’. Whatever gia
Alpha Gali Blackmoor“Lowell, my wolf really hopes your paws stop tracking little Malek’s birth female,” Lowell tells my ears in a super quiet whisper as our boots pace the stone floor of the pack healing house. “Six long winters have slipped right past our territory without a single trace of her s
Leori Ashbourne“You will not touch my mommy,” I mutter, lurking quietly in the deep shadows of the bushes, my little wolf spirit seething with pure rage.If it were not for my big brother Kairo Vale's strict instruction to covertly protect Mom but never reveal our young faces unless it is absolute
Sandra Ashbourne“Empty this entire jug of fire-wine right now, and my pack will cover your daily silver coin fee,” drawls a greasy older wolf sitting on the stone bench.He is Gage Slater, the second uncle of Sade Wintermere. Every rogue in Myhill CrestHALL knows his foul scent because he is the m
Sandra Ashbourne“Alpha, we got her!”Gali Blackmoor looks through the thick glass of the war transport right at my face.Then he takes a second look and his big brow turns into a super hard knot.J'onn Cute had just sent him a message about a very soft, gentle female wolf being stolen off the dirt
