Aldric'They really think they could keep me confined here, don't they?' I chuckled lightly as I watched Destiny leave.'Well, you are kind of helpless right now,' my wolf chirped.'Helpless! Don't make me laugh. I am merely waiting. Those fools didn't know what they were doing and didn't get their timing right. If they were smart, they would've done this much earlier,' I said.My wolf laughed along with me as they knew exactly what I meant.The next day, Nathan came inside the dungeon to visit me."Ah, Beta Nathan," I jeered, "so faithful and loyal. What brings you here? Do you come to gloat about your victory?"Nathan didn't smile. "Today is your trial, Alpha Aldric. So I wouldn't be so cheerful."I raised an eyebrow. "A trial for what? It seemed that you had already found me guilty. So this trial is just for show, isn't it? I didn't think you were the type who likes theatrics.""I only agreed to it because of Destiny. She is Aria's sister and the Luna of this pack as of now. So, I
NathanAnger and frustration boil up inside me as I realize that the Blue moon is rising tonight, and I'm too late. How could I have been so stupid to be consumed by my need for revenge and lose track of time?I watched with horror as Alpha Aldric began to transform into a monstrous beast. His body stretched and bulged grotesquely, the snarls emanating from his throat deep and harrowing until he stood before me in the shape of a werewolf, unlike anything I had ever laid eyes on.The rumors were true, and he was no ordinary wolf shifter like we were. I turned to Baron, who was staring at him too with his eyes wide."I fucking knew not to underestimate Alpha Aldric. And yet, I listened to Destiny and let him leave. I should've killed him," I barked in frustration."What...what is he?" Baron said in a hoarse voice.I clenched my fists, my nails digging into my palms as I fought to contain the rage within me. "It seems like he is a Blue Moon Lycan, Baron. A cursed breed, born only under t
DestinyMy heart raced, pounding in my chest like a relentless drum. The air felt thick, almost suffocating, as I struggled to catch my breath.I've been kidnapped by my own mate.But that wasn't the main problem here. The bigger problem was that my mate was no longer a regular werewolf. He was now the epitome of monstrosity.His eyes glinted with a red-hot fury that I had never seen in them before. Not even when he was cruel to me in the past. His fur was matted with the blood of his victims. It was as if he was possessed by some dark force, a force that had consumed his soul and transformed him into a beast beyond recognition. His once-muscular physique was now grotesquely distorted, his veins bulging and pulsating under his skin.What the hell happened to him?My mate growled deeply, baring his razor-sharp teeth as he carried me through the woods. He hadn't hurt me yet, but I knew he was capable of doing that.I could feel the rough bark of trees against my back as he carried me, e
AldricI jolted awake with a sudden, shuddering gasp. My muscles twitched painfully as I tried to move my arms, my entire body trembling from the intensity of the previous night's transformation. My skin felt slick and clammy with sweat.Ah, the Blue Moon transformation...the timing of it couldn't have been more perfect!Those fools thought they could defeat the Alpha King because they had no idea what I could become under that special moonlight. Only Selene had seen me transform into a Lycan beast in the past, but she had kept me chained underground so no one else knew about my power.The handful of people who witnessed it were dismissed for spreading rumors.Morons.I tried to sit up but felt something pressed against me. There was someone sleeping on top of me. Looking down, I saw that it was Destiny's figure, her hair cascading down her back like a waterfall of soft black silk.The little traitor! What was she doing here, resting her head on my chest like I was her teddy bear?My
Aria"Th-that monster. What was that?" I collapsed on the ground.Nathan put his arms around me and scooped me up. "The Blue Moon. I didn't realize it would have that kind of effect on Alpha Aldric. I've never seen anything like this," he replied."He took Destiny. He will kill her," I sobbed. I did everything to protect my sister, but in the end, it didn't matter because now she was gone."Nathan's grip tightened as he carried me away from the chaotic scene. The air was thick with tension, and my mind raced with fear for Destiny's safety."We need to regroup and come up with a plan," Nathan said, determination in his voice. He gently set me down, and we found a secluded spot away from the wreckage caused by Alpha Aldric's unexpected power surge.I wiped away my tears, trying to regain composure. "What do we do now? How do we stop him?"Nathan paced back and forth, his brow furrowed in thought. "The Blue Moon's energy has a unique effect on him, but in the morning, it should wear off.
Destiny"Where are we going?" I asked as Alpha Aldric kept going deeper into the woods."Somewhere safe," he said vaguely and kept moving.I sighed and followed him. But after walking for hours, I couldn't do it anymore, so I sat down under a tree."What are you doing?" Alpha Aldric turned to me and barked.I looked up at Alpha Aldric, frustration bubbling within me. "I can't keep going like this. We've been walking for hours, and you still won't tell me where we're going. I need to know what's happening."Alpha Aldric's piercing gaze bore into mine, and for a moment, I saw a flicker of hesitation. But then, his expression hardened, and he spoke with an air of authority, "There are things you don't understand, and for now, it's better that way. We are going to be pursued, and I can't risk anyone finding out about our destination.""But I am tired," I whine.Alpha Aldric let out a frustrated growl and then suddenly bent down toward me. I yelped as he scooped me up in his arms."What ar
AriaI gasped and stumbled back as the woman in the tomb opened her eyes and started moving."Who are you?" I asked as she stepped out of the box. She looked at me and grinned as if she knew me already."Don't be scared," she said. Her voice was soft and sweet like melodic bells ringing. "I've been waiting for you."I took a step back, my eyes widening as I looked more closely at the woman before me. She was tall and breathtakingly beautiful, with pale skin and big, emerald-green eyes. But there was something off-putting about her demeanor -- a slight tilt to the shoulders, a slight wariness in her gaze. And yet, underneath it all, she seemed to emit a strange sort of allure."What do you mean you've been waiting for me?" I asked."My name is Selena," she said, in a voice that was almost sing-song. "What's yours?"I hesitated. There was something oddly familiar about her name. "Aria," I eventually said. "Wait...Selena...I heard that name before.""Did you? Well, I am not surprised. My
AldricSomething didn't feel right when I woke up this morning. I felt as if something terrible was about to happen. I never ignored my instinct, and this time, it was no different."Get up!" I shook my sleeping Luna.Destiny groaned and turned to her side. "Ugh...let me sleep for five more minutes.""No, Destiny, we don't have time. Something's off," I urged, my tone urgent.She opened her eyes, the sleepiness fading as she registered the seriousness in my voice. "What's wrong?""I don't know, but we need to leave," I instructed.I could see the questions in her eyes, but she didn't argue with me."What are we running from?" Destiny finally asked after we walked out of the cabin."I wish I had a clear answer," I admitted, the uncertainty of the situation weighing on my shoulders. "All I know is that something feels wrong, and I won't put us in danger by staying here.""If it's my sister, Nathan, and Baron you are worried about, then you are the only one in danger. They just want to s
