MAISIEAs minutes passed, several doubts began to form in my mind when Maxwell did not appear as I had anticipated. I prayed to the moon goddess that he would because if he didn't, that would only mean that this old woman's life held no value and that would mean my death, along with my mate. Was she truly Maxwell's mate? I didn't really know. I had concluded after pondering why he would keep such a mistress for a long time despite having a wife already. And there was the fact that everyone knew that cheating on one's mate was bad, but Ryena had yet to receive any divine punishment from the moon goddess after having such an affair for a long time. So that could only mean that they were mates who couldn't be together for some unspoken reason.When Xavier did not see his father appear, his tense muscles relaxed before he raised his silver gun to aim at me, "How strange, I didn't see you drinking any alcohol during the party so why are you saying nonsense all of a sudden?" He shook his he

As we finally made our way across the border of the Frost Fang pack, Ryena unexpectedly came to a sudden stop. I had already sensed her unease, so I gently nudged her to keep moving. She stumbled slightly over the weeds on the ground but managed to regain her balance. Turning around to face me, she fixed me with a glare and asked, “Are you really intent on taking me to the Dark Edge pack?”With a firm tone, I responded, “Yes, I am.”“That's preposterous!” she retorted, clearly agitated. “I am a servant of the moon goddess dispatched to this territory-”“If you hadn't betrayed our location to your lover, I would have set you free long ago,” I interrupted, a slight smile playing on my lips as I saw her freeze. “I know you've been leaving rye seeds along our path, which means they could be tracking us as we speak.”She denied it immediately, “I have no idea what you are talking about.”“I also know you have no powers right now, or else you wouldn't be like this,” Soft laughter escaped my

MAISIEAfter my long conversation with Kodiak, he kindly escorted me to his house and offered me a comfortable room for the night. Despite my exhaustion, I found it difficult to fall asleep, and as the hours passed and dawn approached, I was finally on the verge of drifting off when a sudden knock shattered the silence.A muffled voice came from the other side of the door, "Mrs. Cardinal, Kodiak wishes to see you. You have ten minutes to join him."Struggling to sound composed, I replied, "I'll be there in ten minutes!"I got out of bed and immediately showered before I went down to see him. Kodiak was not the first person I wished to see today but I knew I had no choice. Although there were a lot of things still left unsettled between me and his brother, those grievances seemed nothing compared to the current state he was in. He raised his head the moment I descended from the stairs but remained quiet until I entered the room. Different aromas from the food served on the table drift

MAISIEI knew it was a risky move but I desperately wanted to save him no matter what. That was why I was prepared to use the mate bond to try and prolong his life. Apart from the motion that he was the only one who could overthrow Xavier and take back his pack, I just couldn't imagine a world without his presence now. So I took his hand and tried to enter his psyche, hoping to check on the situation first. I hoped I wouldn't be forced to use my last resort and that the pack priestess would be able to treat him before then but I kept having a bad premonition that things wouldn't go the way I wanted. After a few moments, I shut my eyes and then fluttered them open, hoping to focus and achieve a certain outcome, but to no avail. Previously, it seemed as though an impenetrable barrier had been erected in our mental connection, although I could still perceive his existence on the other side.But now, there was nothing. No sound, no breath. It felt like he was truly dead. When Anna ca

ZAYN"Wait, so let me get this straight... that woman over there is supposedly my wife, and I have a son?" I questioned my identical twin, studying his every move while he, in turn, observed me with great intensity.The atmosphere in the room was heavy with silence, tension, and an unidentifiable quality that seemed to hang in the air. It felt as though everyone else in the room was privy to a secret, and the most troubling aspect was that the secret seemed to directly concern me.“Yes, she is,” Kodiak reaffirmed as he ran his fingers through his hair, “Look, I understand what you are thinking but you know that I won't lie to you about something like this...”“No, you won't,” I cut him with a firm voice. It wasn't only because I trusted my twin completely but also because he knew the consequences of playing such a dangerous trick on me. I dismissed him, “You can go now.”Kodiak looked like he wanted to say something but at the end, he simply nodded, “Alright, we will go. Have a good r
