LOGINA flash of genuine amusement dances in his dark eyes as he looks down at my fragile frame. She is so small, yet she speaks to the Supreme King with total authority. If he presses too hard, will she break? His golden eyes darken with a sudden wave of heat, and his grip tightens instinctively."You are squeezing too hard..."I squirm against his hold, feeling highly uncomfortable with our physical closeness.I place both of my palms against his massive shoulders, trying to push myself up and climb off his lap. But the moment I lift my weight, his iron arms jerk me right back down."Ah..."My body smacks hard against his rock-solid thigh muscles.This position is incredibly embarrassing and improper. I plant my hands over his big wrists, using every ounce of my weak strength to push him away, but his body does not budge a single inch. My wolf grows furious at being pushed around all night long. "Supreme King Leonidas, we are supposed to be conducting a professional pack transaction!""Ar
Gorgo Lykaon POV "Supreme King Leonidas, we are discussing serious pack business right now!"I pull my eyebrows together tightly because this giant male is completely spacing out."Supreme King Leonidas, are your royal ears even listening to my words at all?"I have absolutely no idea what magical spirit has possessed his mind.I bend my head down to see what his golden eyes are targeting, but his massive frame shifts suddenly."An extraction formula?" Leonidas rumbles deeply."Yes! The secret refinement method for the sacred pack herbs."My expression becomes completely focused as I guide the topic back to our arrangement."The elite beauty remedy under your Silverclaw Trade Alliance, the Vanjilin elixir..."Leonidas' gaze turns incredibly dark and heavy. "How does your young wolf know the secret name of the Vanjilin elixir?"That specific fur-purifying potion is a top secret project deep within his pack development labs. Up until this very sunrise, the project has never been reveal
Gorgo Lykaon POV "Why do you keep snapping your jaws like that, Gorgo? Is your inner wolf suddenly feeling a phantom chill on its neck?""Yes, Master Leonidas..."I squeeze my hands into tight fists, reminding my beast that I will never bow my head before the Supreme Alpha King of the Silverclaw Throne again."I will not cut off my connection with my pack friends, Master Leonidas. You do not need to use your alpha dominance to dictate my circle.""That hostile young wolf, you call him Dilios Moonfang?" Leonidas rumbles, his eyes darkening. "Very handsome? Very manly in your eyes? Ah!""You want your wolf to perish?""So what if he is handsome... Ah! What are your claws doing?"I freeze as his massive palm presses down. My beast thrashes in panic, and I immediately twist my frame, pressing my palms behind me to push his heavy hand away from my body.However, my weak strength cannot budge his iron alpha grip at all!"Leonidas Argyros, does your wolf only know how to use physical force
"Gorgo...""We will speak when the sun rises, Terry."I slip through the door, checking the digital clock. The verbal exchange has already wasted two minutes. I have exactly five minutes left to reach the subterranean cavern of the lodge. I sprint toward the lifting cage, relieved to find the shaft empty as it plunges downward.With thirty seconds to spare, I step into the cold air of the parking garage and approach the massive, armored royal carriage.Peter immediately opens the heavy door from the outside. The moment my boots clear the frame, he slams the door shut and walks completely away into the shadows of the garage, leaving an eerie, suffocating silence inside the vehicle. Why did the Beta retreat? Are we going to be confined in this carriage for the entire night?The interior of this royal transport is larger than an ordinary den, lined with thick black wolf furs and plush leather cushions. Leonidas is sprawled across the rear seat, his massive chest rising and falling slowly
Gorgo Lykaon POV"This, this... was not hunted by my beast! Zack, you cannot leave me to face this bill alone!"Amy stands frozen, her face completely losing its color as she looks at the massive, empty wooden trays on our mat. Zack’s silver scent has completely vanished from the tier; he followed the Supreme Alpha King into the inner council war room without a single backward glance."The silver mine of your mate has run dry, Ms. Winston," Nyra barks, crossing her arms over her chest as she looks down from her cushion. "This is an elite Eclipse Moon Lodge feast. The token calculation for this game is at least twenty-five thousand silver trade-tokens. Surely the high-born daughter of the Winston bloodline doesn't need to beg like a rogue pup?""You loud-mouthed omega!" Amy shrieks, her fingernails digging deep into her silk robes as she trembles. "Zack Argyros was the one tearing into the stag meat! My wolf didn't consume a single shred of the kill! Why should my den be the one to cle
But tonight, standing in the shadow of my calm posture, he sees Amy as nothing more than a brainless pack clown! Even if my face is marked with the deep spots of a rejected moonborn, my inner wolf carries an undeniable grace and royal composure. It takes a truly powerful female to dominate a crowded room without ever raising her voice or flashing a claw.If it weren't for the fact that Artemisia possesses a face that is a hundred times more radiant, he thinks that with my current commanding aura, even the false Luna candidate would look like a lesser wolf beside me!Looking at the trembling female seated across from him now, his stomach turns with pure nausea! Amy senses the heavy alpha danger rolling off his frame, and no matter how much her pride is bleeding, she doesn't dare to let out another peep.When the giant silver trays of meat are placed on our tables, Amy simply pouts her lips, refusing to touch the food or utter a single word.She is drowning in her own childish fury! She
Gorgo Lykaon POV"Drive the car now," Leonidas Argyros says.The territory rider gasps very loudly. His eyes are big because he sees the red blood on the supreme alpha king's neck. But Leonidas does not yell. He does not even look mad. He just looks out the black glass at the two bad wolves who are
Gorgo Lykaon POV"Lock the outer door and make sure the camera is ready to take the photos," Artemisia Lykaon says outside.I shake my head hard. My brain feels full of heavy fog. I look at my hands. I look down at my long dress with the bad cuts that show too much skin. I look at a big mirror on t
“Let’s break this lunar bond, right now,” I say.I stare at Leonidas Argyros, the supreme alpha king, the wolf every female in Sparta Moonhaven wants. He’s got dark hair, a powerful build, and this intimidating aura that hangs around him like a storm. But he’s never wanted me. For three winters, I
GORGO LYKAOON POVI jerk awake, heartbeat wild. “What the… what’s going on? Where am I?”Weird angle, weird cushion. I squint around, empty. Totally alone.I glance down. My ceremony gown is shredded to bits. Ripped cloth everywhere. My stomach turns over.What did I know? Did I do this? Did I real
