Chapter 31 Close Combat

VALENTINAAn alarm gently roused me from my reverie, and I awoke to the soft caress of a gentle breeze in the clearing. Despite its soothing touch, my spirits remained low.I let out a deep sigh and lay on the ground with my eyes closed.One month has passed, and I've made no progress connecting with Kira or nature. In fact, since that day, I have tried to reach out to Kira and reconnect with my core strength many times, but I felt even more distant each time.Now, I have begun questioning my own stability. Am I even worthy of anything?Dad's words from a month ago still linger in my mind like a lash. ‘We don't have much time.’ Those were his last words, and since then he has not shown up.Whenever I tried to ask Papa, he said he wasn't responding and changed the topic. I always felt Papa wasn't being entirely truthful.On top of that Carmella and her daughter. Ugh! I just want to strangle the bitches! While Carmella refrained from further significant mistakes after that, aside from s

Chapter 32 The Cursed Den

VALENTINA“It was great today.” Rey hooked her arm through mine as we headed toward the pack house in the evening.“Hmm, you did well as well,” I said lightly, feeling the night breeze. I'm a little absentminded about my own strengths, thinking if I should go to the clearing under the moonlight.I glanced up at the evening sky. Tonight also is the full moon…"Hey, did you hear the latest news about King Andres?" Rey suddenly spoke, startling me.“Huh?” My thoughts were interrupted."His visit to the east is almost over; soon he will head south!" she said excitedly. "Oh my, I'm so thrilled and I'm waiting for the day he visits our pack!”“Ebonn Moon is one of the powerful packs, I'm quite sure he'll come to our pack! Oh my! Can't wait to see him in person!” She exclaimed."Goddess, he is so damn good-looking! I wonder who the lucky girl is…” She just wouldn't shut up about that Lycan King, and it made me think of some weird dreams I'd had. Or should I say wet dreams?It wasn't just one

Chapter 33 Rey's Crush!

VALENTINAHer questioning gaze almost tempted me to share my recent risky experience, but I hesitated. Carmella's situation is becoming increasingly dangerous, and it would be best to keep Rey uninvolved.Therefore, I shook my head. “Nothing serious; I was just trying to guide my own training under the moonlight.”"Oh?" Her eyes were still watching me, trying to detect lies in my words. "You mean waking your wolf?”"Hmm, nothing happened, though," I said. "So, did you eat dinner?" I asked, changing the subject."Nah," she sighed. "After you left abruptly, I waited for you to return and then came out to look for you.”“I thought you went back home,” I said as we entered the pack house and were greeted by the servants who crossed our path."Not yet," she responded, looking a little uncomfortable. "I have something to talk about.”"Alright," I muttered lightly, not taking her uneasiness into account and making her more hesitant. Instead, I pulled her along. "Let's have dinner first; I am

Chapter 34 A girl from Olivia's clique

VALENTINAThe next morning, Rey left after receiving a call from her mother. Her mother needed help attending to some—in her language ‘unwanted’ guests. Thus, I went downstairs for breakfast alone.However, I met my father and uncle on the way. They were also heading to breakfast and gladly joined them.As our breakfasts were being served, my mind diverted to last night's conversation with Rey. My best friend was crushing hard, and her expression showed it, it seemed more than just a crush.Kyder Hastings—The second Gamma. From what I have heard from Papa and Uncle Sam, he is a good one. Although I do not know him personally and only saw him a few times, he is attractively built with charms, and also famous among young girls.In that case, he has many options to choose from, and if it happens, it will break Rey's heart. No! I won't let it happen! I must do something!“Ahm—a penny for your thoughts princess?” Papa's sudden voice broke my thoughts, and I blinked, only to find Uncle and

Chapter 35 Was it Kira?

VALENTINAI paused and looked back. She was still staring at the ground, her arms hugging herself protectively. Tears were running down her cheeks.“They're no friends but think of them as superiors.” She said again.I quietly sat beside her and heard her deep, trembling sigh.“I followed them because that's what they had promised—friendship and safety, but when the time came, their true nature was revealed.” She paused again.I remained patient for her to open up further, and she did, eventually.“I only have my mother as family. Although we have no luxuries, we are happy with our lives. Mom works at the traditional herb centre, one that holds prestigious sources in Ebonn Moon. However, recently, she fell ill, and after checkups and tests, we discovered her critical illness. One that needed expensive treatment.” She paused briefly, took a sniff, and then continued.“We used up all her years of savings, which wasn't enough at all. Running out of options, I went to Olivia and her mothe

Chapter 36 Who is he?

VALENTINAAgain, that roar boomed through the woods. My heart leapt again, and I frantically searched for my wolf's connection, but weirdly, I felt nothing—like it was some other spirit, not mine.“He-ello?” My voice strained and trembling, barely registering a whisper; a profound sense of unease washed over me as I tried to look through the woods.As if in response to my call, another howl tore through the forest depths. And then, came a voice…“It's you…” The spirit communicated, and at that moment, I understood why I hadn't sensed a connection. It wasn't Kira, but an unfamiliar spirit; a male wolf spirit.“Wh-who are you?” I called out this time, surveying my surroundings, but I saw nothing at all.“I'm Czer, I…” His deep, raucous voice resonated again, then cut off. The sound was there, but too hazy for me to grasp.“I can’t hear you, Czer. Where are you?” But then I heard nothing as if it had never happened.No, no, no! I must know who he is.I closed my eyes and slowly let my en

Chapter 37 Mate!

ANDRES DONOVAN'S POV ...The pack border lights flickered in the sky as I stood on the east border base, inspecting the surroundings with my men.“What do you think about it, Your Highness?” Alpha Jordan asked, lowering his head in a respectful bow. “I hope it is all in good shape.”“You think so?” I scoffed. “Do you think it’s in better shape with the border guards assaulting a refugee she-wolf?”The vibration of my tone stiffened him, and I watched him flinch for a moment. His head lowered further before me, visibly shaking.“Your Highness, the number of refugees is increasing these days. Besides, we do not know if she is a spy from the other pack. Please, my lord, be a little considerate.” His voice trembled.“Considerate of what, Alpha Jordan? To the clearing scene where I walked into your warriors, who almost raped that weak she-wolf?” My tone fell like thunder as my gaze coldly lingered on the pathetic man.The scene was still fresh in my heart. The woman's wail was agonizing, y

Chapter 38 The next step

VALENTINAI returned home around 5:00 a.m., slightly tired after my shuddering adventure. My excitement, however, surpassed my fatigue. I have just been reunited with my wolf, Kira!As I returned to the pack house and headed to the Alpha's quarters, I bumped into Papa.He frowned. “Here you are! I was looking everywhere for you.” He sounded a little disappointed at first, but then his gaze fell on me, noticing my tired and slightly dishevelled appearance."Wait—what happened?" he asked, worry replaced by displeasure as he saw me. “Where did you go? Is everything alright?”I couldn't hide the grin plastered on my face, and I nodded vigorously like a child. “Yes! I'm fine! And I'm coming from the clearing. Actually I was there the entire night!”His eyes widened. “You didn't return home the entire night?”“Nope!” My smile only deepened.“And?” He raised an eyebrow at me, perhaps realizing the jolt of excitement within me."And I have connected with nature, Papa! I have finally awakened

Chapter 39 Am I not good enough?

VALENTINA“What?” I gasped in disbelief. Masking my scent? Is that even possible?For a second, I believed Papa was joking, but his serious demeanour made me realize he wasn't kidding at all.In fact, he gave me a firm nod, confusing me even more.“I'm puzzled; how could that be possible?” I eventually asked, frowning. “Don't wolves possess a keen sense of smell? Even if some average wolves missed the scent, shouldn't the Alpha's superior olfactory abilities have detected it?”Papa nodded solemnly. "Come with me; you'll have all your answers.” Saying, he turned around and started walking away.“Okay?” I was still suspicious but followed him. Besides, many magical things had already happened to me, so I would not be surprised anymore if this were possible.My father and I began venturing into the dark forest, heading towards the clearing. We were both quiet all the way until Papa raised his hand near the clearing and said, "What's that?”“Wait, what?” I hurriedly followed Papa's direct

Chapter 40 The Lycan King

VALENTINAI gently lifted my head from the water, keeping my eyes open, and observed my father surveying his surroundings, alert and discreet.I made a move, my eyes fixed on my target. My movement was quiet and calm, not disturbing the regular flow of the water. Thanks to Mama, I have learned to master water assassination.Targeting Papa, I went underwater again and waited for him to turn away. Once he did, I moved and got out of the water, not making any sound.I hid behind a tree; he was just a few feet away, still unable to detect my scent. My confidence grew, and I slowly climbed the huge tree like a snake. All of these were a part of my teenage training. For some reason, my parents wanted to perfect me, and I obliged with interest.I climbed onto the branch closest to my father, over his head. He was still looking for me while I was closer than a foot to him.A proud smirk arose on my lips. Finally, I did—Ogh! A gasp escaped me involuntarily when I was suddenly grabbed by the ar
