Howl of the rejected Shared moments
Kieran and Seraphina carried their freshly cooked pasta from the kitchen to the dining room, the warm aroma of their meal filling the air. The dining room, usually bustling with pack members, was quieter now, but a few people were still around, passing through or chatting in small groups.As they set the table and took their seats, Elara and Ryan, two pack members, walked by and noticed them. Elara raised an eyebrow, curiosity gleaming in her eyes.“Hey, who cooked? The maids?” Elara asked, her tone light and teasing.Seraphina shook her head, a proud smile spreading across her face. “Nope, we did! Kieran and I made this,” she said, gesturing to the plates of pasta.Ryan's eyes widened in surprise, and he exchanged a glance with Elara. “Seriously? You two cooked this?” he asked, clearly impressed.“Yep, it was a team effort,” Kieran added with a grin, feeling a sense of pride swell within him.Elara and Ryan shared a look before nodding and taking seats at the table. “Well, we have t

Back at Alpha Cade’s mansion, Cade was deeply frustrated. His pack had spent hours searching for Zyra, but there was no trace of her. The exhausted and disheartened looks on his pack members' faces mirrored his own feelings. Today was the last day they had to find Zyra, and as night drew nearer, his pack members' hunger became more evident.“We've run out of food and snacks, Alpha. What do we do now?” one of them asked, breaking the tense silence. Cade stared at him, feeling the weight of their collective frustration.“Are you seriously asking me this right now? I’m as confused as hell. I have no idea where that girl took her little legs to,” Cade replied, running his hand through his hair in frustration. His voice carried the weight of his desperation.Gaia, his sister, sighed and stepped forward. “You all should go home then. It’s clear that we can’t find her today,” she said, her voice tinged with irritation at seeing her brother so distressed.“Really? Home again?” Cade asked, his
Howl of the rejected Day of reckoning
The morning sun peeked through the curtains, casting a warm glow over Alpha Grayson’s bedroom. His wife, Mrs. Grayson, had been up for hours, meticulously planning a surprise for his birthday. She tiptoed around the room, arranging the final touches of the breakfast tray she prepared herself. It was filled with all of his favorites: freshly baked croissants, scrambled eggs, crispy bacon, and a steaming pot of coffee. A small bouquet of flowers adorned the tray, adding a touch of elegance to the heartfelt gesture.“Happy birthday, my love,” she whispered softly as she leaned over and kissed his forehead, gently waking him from his slumber. Alpha Grayson stirred, blinking his eyes open, and a smile spread across his face as he realized what day it was.“Good morning,” he replied, his voice still heavy with sleep. “This is quite a wake-up call.”Mrs. Grayson beamed at him, her eyes twinkling with love and excitement. “You deserve every bit of it. And there’s more to come.”Jus

Everyone in the hall froze at the sight of Alpha Marcus standing among them. "Alpha Marcus?" someone gasped, the disbelief clear in their voice."What brings you here, Alpha Marcus?" Gaia asked, stunned, as she rose from her seat. The rest of the hall bowed their heads in respect, acknowledging the presence of the formidable leader.Marcus stepped further into the room, his demeanor calm and commanding. "I am not alone. I brought some company to join your celebration," he replied, his voice steady.Cade interjected, his tone laced with suspicion. "Uninvited? Something else brought you here."Just then, the rest of Marcus's pack members entered the hall, their presence adding to the tension in the room. Alpha Grayson, the birthday celebrant, turned his attention to Marcus."You brought your people?" Grayson asked, a mix of curiosity and concern in his voice."You must be the birthday man, Alpha Grayson. Happy birthday to you," Marcus said with a slight nod."Thank you," Grayson replie

The sun had set, casting the landscape in hues of twilight, as they finally arrived at the imposing gates of Marcus’s mansion.The grand structure loomed ahead, its impressive facade illuminated by soft lights that gave it a warm and welcoming glow. Marcus, leading the group, glanced back at Zyra, who walked beside him with a composed expression. Despite the events of the evening, she held her head high, a testament to her inner strength.As they approached the mansion, the gates swung open to reveal the pack members standing in formation, awaiting their Alpha’s return. The atmosphere was one of reverent anticipation. Murmurs spread through the crowd as they saw Zyra at Marcus’s side. Marcus raised his hand, and silence fell over the assembly."Tonight, we welc
Howl of the rejected Revenge
Back at the Nightshade pack, the members continued to revel in the festivities. The party showed no signs of slowing down and seemed destined to stretch into the early morning. However, Alpha Cade, feeling weary, excused himself and made his way to the family meeting room. His mother had summoned him and his sister, and they both knew what the meeting would be about.As Cade entered the dimly lit room, he noticed his parents already seated, their faces stern and serious. He swallowed hard, mentally preparing himself for the conversation ahead."Hi Mom, hi Dad," Gaia greeted as she stepped in."Both of you, take a seat," their mother instructed, her tone leaving no room for argument. Cade and Gaia complied, sitting down with a mix of apprehension and resignation. Cade glanced at his mother, then his father, before fixing his gaze on the table in the center of the room."I assume you both know why I called you here?" she began, reaching for her glass of wine."Not exactly, but I can gu
Howl of the rejected Trainings
As Alpha Cade made his way to his room, he couldn't help but agree with Lukas, though he hated to admit it. Lukas was right; Cade thought he was the one who had done the most damage. The memories of how he treated Zyra flooded his mind. He shook his head vigorously, trying to dispel the thoughts, and poured the remaining alcohol from his bottle into his mouth."Ya’ll are petty! How could you be scared of that little thing called Zyra!" he yelled aloud, running his hand through his hair in frustration. As he headed towards the bathroom, contemplating spending the rest of the night drunk in the bathtub, a knock on the door interrupted his thoughts. He frowned, annoyed at the persistent knocking."Haven't you guys had enough?" he muttered, rolling his eyes. The knocking continued, and with a sigh, he walked to the door to see who it was. When he opened it, he found Aria standing there with an unreadable expression on her face."Hey..." he greeted softly."Hi..." she replied quietly, her

The sun was just beginning to rise, casting a golden hue across the Pack’s training grounds. Zyra stood there, feeling a mix of anticipation and nerves. The training ground was vast, with different sections for various types of training. There were obstacle courses, sparring rings, and weapon racks filled with swords, daggers, and bows.Marcus stood beside her, exuding confidence and strength. He wore a tight black training outfit that showed off his muscular build. Zyra couldn't help but notice how his presence seemed to dominate the space."Ready for your first day of training?" Marcus asked, a playful smirk on his face.Zyra nodded, trying to match his confidence. "As ready as I'll ever be."Marcus chuckled. "Good. We'll start with some basic combat skills. Follow me."“It would be best to start with physical training, we are yet to discover your abilities you know.” He said to her and she nodded her head.They walked to a large mat where Marcus had set up for hand-to-hand combat t
