LOGINThe voice was soft and gentle, yet there was an undeniable weight behind it. The words carried a plea and the tone revealed desperation.Yoren froze. “Eirene,” he murmured, utterly certain that it was her voice. “What do you mean? Come back to you?” He shook his head in confusion. “I never went anywhere.”The confusion froze in Yoren's mind as another wave of pain suddenly struck, far stronger and deeper than before. It pierced him, spreading like fire, burning him from the inside out.Yoren released a long roar. A deep growl rumbled from his throat as he clenched his jaw shut.Every muscle in his body tightened. It felt as though every tendon were being forcibly torn apart.Yoren was in so much pain that he thought he was about to die. Strangely, a warm sensation emerged a second later, slipping into his body ever so faintly.That strange sensation returned. This time, it circled around Yoren faster and stronger than before, before plunging into him. It flowed through his veins. It f
The sky and the earth were shrouded in endless darkness. Gloom stretched out in all directions, engulfing everything in an unfathomable void with no end.Yoren slowly opened his eyes, but he could see nothing. There was no light, no shape and no sign of anything, leaving him utterly uncertain of where he was.He stood still for a few moments, trying to make sense of his surroundings. Yet the longer he observed, the more he realised there was nothing to see.Everything was empty. Everything was silent—until a low growl echoed from somewhere in the distance.Yoren tensed instantly. His instincts flared to life without warning. He became alert, trying to understand what was happening, when something else jolted him again.A long howl shattered the silence, followed by a rough groan. Then came the sounds of impacts, claws and fighting one after the other.The noises came from every direction at once. Sometimes they sounded so close that they seemed to be right behind Yoren's ear; at other
The final assault from Fabrizio and the elite guards struck Yoren with tremendous force. He fell, crashing into the asphalt with such force that a massive crater formed.Yoren let out a restrained groan. He tried to rise, but this time his body wavered.“Miss Eirene!” Fabrizio shouted, breathing heavily. “Let Alpha go! He's weakened now. We’ll handle the rest.”Eirene remained still. “No,” she answered in a hoarse voice. “This isn't over yet.”Fabrizio asked, “What are you going to do?”Eirene did not answer. Instead, she slowly loosened her grip on Yoren’s neck. She shifted little by little, but did not move away. In fact, she crawled upwards onto Yoren’s body.Her hands held his massive muzzle. She held his head directly in front of her face, the two of them separated by only the smallest distance.Their faces were now incredibly close. Even their breaths collided and pressed against one another.Eirene stayed silent for a moment. She carefully observed Yoren’s condition.His eyes s
“I truly hope Alpha is willing to perform the blood bond ritual before it’s too late. Because if not, he will disappear from this world forever. He will be replaced by his wolf.”Gwyneth’s words echoed loudly in Eirene’s mind. Her words awoke something within Eirene, making her wolf soul howl with determination.Eirene jumped. She lifted her leg high and slammed it into Yoren’s body with all her strength, even though it was futile.Yoren only shifted half a step backwards, further proving that her human body was no match for his gigantic wolf form. He stood firm, as though the attack had never happened.The opposite happened to Eirene. The impact sent her flying instead. Her body crashed against the bonnet of a car with a loud bang before rolling across the tarmac.Eirene let out a soft groan. Pain instantly spread throughout her body. However, she did not stay down for long. She immediately pressed both her hands against the asphalt and forced herself back up.Eirene’s breathing beca
Fabrizio lunged at Yoren from the side. He hit Yoren hard, sending them both rolling several metres away.Eirene coughed violently. Her body trembled as she tried to get up. Her chest felt crushed. It felt as though her bones had shifted out of place. Yet she had no time to dwell on the pain because Yoren attacked again.Fabrizio and Velmora’s elite guards tried to restrain him. However, all their efforts failed. Yoren was far too strong for them.Yoren struck down anyone who approached him, giving them no chance to defend themselves. He flung the large wolf carcasses around.Cries of pain filled the night once more. The sound of flesh tearing echoed out. Blood splattered again, further staining the road.Eirene looked around, breathing unevenly. The chaos was worsening, making her fear grow stronger still.More victims were beginning to fall. Some were moving weakly, while others groaned in agony. At least they were still alive—for now.Nevertheless, Eirene knew that they had to stop
Eirene froze in the middle of the blood-soaked highway. Her breathing was ragged and her trembling eyes stared at Yoren’s figure in the distance.All of their enemies had already fallen. The asphalt was littered with wolf carcasses, mixed with shattered glass and wrecked cars. The scent of blood was so heavy in the night air that it felt suffocating.Amidst the chaos, Yoren stood with heavy breaths. His fangs and claws were covered in blood and flesh. He looked terrifying, yet he still hadn't stopped.His golden eyes no longer looked like they belonged to him. They were too wild, savage and empty.Eirene held her breath as she saw Yoren suddenly lunge at one of Gardeno’s wolves. She had not expected Yoren to attack a Gardeno wolf, even though they were on the same side.The large wolf’s body slammed hard against the ground. It tried to rise, only to be swept away by one brutal attack from four other wolves.Cries of pain erupted at once. Gardeno’s elite guards immediately retreated, l
Sabrina’s apartment always felt too warm in the afternoons, but this would shift into something calming once night fell. Eirene had thought it was because the air conditioning was rarely used or because the windows faced west, but that wasn’t the reason. It was actually the presence o
The private jet landed smoothly on the restricted runway in the Velmora region, to little fanfare. The only sound was the gradual fading of the engines, until silence once again enveloped the morning air.Travis Davenport rose from his seat, straightened the cuffs of his shirt and reached
The residence was known as the Eastern Palace. While not as grand as the Main Palace of Velmora, where Yoren resided, the building was spacious and dignified enough to reflect the status of its occupants. It stood amidst a grey stone arrangement overlooking the valley, surrounded by meticulously
The Ledger never looked suspicious—that was its advantage. From the outside, it looked like an ordinary bar: a fairly well-established, middle-class entertainment venue with a dark façade, dim lighting, a tarnished signboard with gold letters, and thick glass doors that were always n
