The alphas dead mate A table of wolves
The evening bells echoed across Blackthorn Keep. Their deep, steady chimes rolled through every corridor and courtyard, announcing the evening meal. In the Moon Wing, Lyra stood motionless before the tall window. Outside, snow drifted gently across the mountains, turning the fortress into a sea of silver and white. Below, servants hurried between buildings carrying lanterns that glowed warmly against the growing darkness. Everything looked peaceful. Too peaceful. It was hard to believe that only hours earlier, someone had tried to kill her inside the Moon Temple. Her reflection stared back at her from the glass. She barely recognized the girl looking back. No patched cloak. No worn leather boots. No windblown hair. Instead, she wore a simple sapphire-blue gown that flowed to her ankles. Silver embroidery shimmered along the sleeves like tiny stars. Her dark hair had been brushed smooth and tied back neatly with a matching ribbon. She looked... Different.
The alphas dead mate whispers in the keep
The Moon Wing fell silent the moment Alpha Kael closed the doors behind him.The echo of his footsteps faded down the corridor until Lyra could no longer hear them.She was alone.Completely alone.Slowly, she turned back toward the room.It was unlike anything she had ever imagined.The fireplace was carved from white marble, its mantel decorated with wolves chasing the moon through flowering vines. Tall bookshelves lined one wall, each shelf packed with leather-bound books that looked too old to touch. Silver curtains framed the towering windows, and beyond them, snow drifted gently over the mountains surrounding Blackthorn Keep.The room was beautiful.Too beautiful.Lyra walked carefully across the polished floor, almost afraid her worn boots would leave marks.She stopped before the ruined portrait hanging above the fireplace.The silver frame gleamed despite its age.The painting inside was another story.Someone had destroyed it.The woman's face had been slashed beyond recogni

The Council Hall remained silent long after Alpha Kael's words settled over the room."My decision is final."No one dared challenge him.Not after that.The declaration echoed against the towering stone pillars before fading into an uneasy silence.Lyra stood near the entrance, suddenly aware of every pair of eyes fixed on her.Some were curious.Some fearful.Others openly resentful.She lowered her gaze.The feeling was painfully familiar.At Grey Hollow, people whispered because she was without a lone wolfHere, they whispered because she might not be.The elderly councilor slowly lowered himself back into his seat, his weathered face unreadable."So be it."His voice carried through the chamber."But remember this, Alpha."His sharp eyes shifted toward Lyra."If this girl brings ruin upon Blackthorn... history will remember who welcomed her inside."The warning lingered in the room.Kael gave no reply.Instead, he turned."Come."Lyra hesitated only a moment before following him.

The temple bells refused to fall silent.Their relentless toll rolled across the mountains, each strike echoing farther than the last until it seemed the entire kingdom could hear them.Not a blessing.A warning.Outside the Moon Temple, wolves rushed through the courtyards with drawn weapons. Messengers mounted waiting horses, their cloaks snapping violently in the cold wind as they rode toward the territories of the Seven Great Packs.Within hours, every Alpha would know.The Moon Goddess had chosen.The Royal Moon Crest had returned.And an assassin had struck inside sacred ground.Inside the temple, the once-orderly ceremony had dissolved into controlled chaos.Families clung together, ushered toward the side exits by anxious priests.Lyra stood exactly where she had been since the bells first changed.She couldn't make herself move.Her fingers drifted unconsciously to the back of her neck.The skin there was warm.No...Hot.Not painful, but alive.As though the crest hidden ben

The temple bells continued to ring.Their frantic toll echoed across the mountains. _Dong. Dong. Dong._ Fast and sharp and wrong. It wasn’t the blessing toll. That one was slow. Deep. Reverent. This was warning. The sound rolled down the slopes and into the valleys. It warned every wolf within miles that something had gone terribly wrong. In the villages below, mothers pulled children inside. In the forests, hunting parties stopped and lifted their heads. In the seven Pack territories, Alphas would be hearing it now.Inside the Moon Temple, chaos threatened to spill over.It was in the way people moved. Too fast. Too sharp. The way voices rose half an octave. The way no one was looking at each other in the eyes anymore."Seal every entrance!" one captain shouted. His voice cracked on the last word. "No one leaves!"Blackthorn guards rushed toward the massive silver doors. Their boots were loud on the marble. They moved in pairs, checking each handle, each lock. The doors were anci

The silence stretched until it became unbearable.It was a thick silence. The kind that filled your ears until you could hear the blood moving in your veins. The kind that made every small sound feel like a shout. Every eye in the temple remained fixed on Lyra.There were hundreds of them. Alphas in their ceremonial robes. Nobles with jewels at their throats. Priests with silver staffs. Young wolves who had come for blessings. All of them staring.She could feel their stares like invisible hands pressing against her skin. On her face. On her shoulders. On the faded gray cloak that suddenly felt too thin. Her pulse was in her throat. "The birthmark," the old elder repeated, his trembling voice barely above a whisper. "Please... show us your neck."The words cut through the quiet. Lyra instinctively reached up, her fingers brushing the back of her neck. The hair there was cool. She didn’t know what they were talking about. She’d never thought about the back of her neck before."My n
