The pack members were done for the day and began to go their separate ways to their various rooms. Kieran took a walk with Seraphina since neither was ready to go to bed. They concluded on spending the rest of their time on a stroll around the mansion.As they walked, the night air was cool and refreshing. The stars twinkled brightly in the sky, casting a gentle light over the surroundings. Kieran glanced at Seraphina, noting how the starlight made her features soft and almost ethereal."You know, tonight's training went really well," Kieran said, breaking the comfortable silence.Seraphina smiled. "It did. Zyra is a fast learner, and everyone seemed to have a good time. It's nice to see the pack coming together like that."Kieran nodded. "Yeah, it’s important, especially with everything that’s going on. We need to be united."They continued walking, eventually finding a quiet spot on the ground where they could sit and watch the stars. The mansion loomed behind them, but out here, it
At Nightshade pack, Alpha Cade rolled over to the other side of his bed for the fourth time. Sleep eluded him, and frustration grew with each passing minute. Glancing at the clock, he saw it was only 2 a.m. A deep, inexplicable sadness gnawed at him, leaving him confused and restless."Why do I feel so empty?" he muttered to himself, sitting up in bed. He scanned his room, hoping to find something to occupy his mind, but nothing seemed to help. Finally, he decided to step outside for some fresh air. He walked to his balcony, hoping the cool night breeze might bring some clarity.As Cade leaned against the railing, gazing at the moonlit landscape, the air around him began to shimmer. He blinked, unsure if his tired eyes were playing tricks on him. Then, before him, a figure materialized—a woman of otherworldly beauty, her presence radiating power and serenity."Alpha Cade," she spoke, her voice like a melody that resonated deep within his soul, "I am the Moon Goddess as you know, and
Zyra patiently waited for Marcus to come out of the bathroom. She needed to speak with him and uncover what he was keeping from her. Now that they were mates, she believed there should be no secrets between them.She sat still until he emerged, surprised to see her waiting. He sighed and made his way to get his clothes, but she spread her hands on the bed and tilted her head, calling out, “Marcus?”He heaved a sigh, replying, “Not now, Zyra.”She rolled her eyes in frustration. “Why? What are you not telling me?” she demanded, watching as he turned his back on her, revealing his tattoo again.“Is it behind your tattoo? Tell me, I want to know…” she pleaded, her voice soft yet insistent.He groaned softly. “Zyra, you don’t need to know all of this,” he said, trying to brush off her questions.She shook her head, standing up and walking towards him. She cupped his cheeks in her hands and stared into his eyes. “What is it?” she whispered.“I am your mate; you should tell me…” she said g
The training session progressed with ease for hours. Every member of the pack trained effortlessly, pushing themselves to their limits. Eventually, Zyra grew tired and decided to take a break. She reached for a bottle of water, took a long drink, and sighed in relief.Feeling the need to escape for a moment, Zyra decided to explore the pack’s garden. The garden was a tranquil haven, filled with vibrant flowers and lush greenery. As she entered, the peace of the garden enveloped her, and she paused to smile at the beautiful flowers around her. She crouched down to admire a cluster of particularly vibrant roses, their petals a brilliant shade of red.As she reached out to touch one of the roses, something strange happened. A warm, tingling sensation spread from her fingertips, and she felt a deep connection to the plants around her. To her astonishment, the roses began to grow and bloom even more vibrantly under her touch. She gasped, pulling her hand back in shock."What...what just h
Zyra huddled in the corner of her small den, her heart pounding in her chest as she tried to drown out the sounds of her pack mates running and playing outside. She knew that it was only a matter of time before they would find her, and she would once again become their target.The young she-wolf had always been different from the others in her pack. Her parents' sacrifice left her alone and isolated. Despite her efforts to make friends, she was constantly ignored or even outright bullied by the others around her. With her mating ceremony only weeks away, Zyra had come of age to get a mate. There was always a special day in their pack when mateless wolves found their mates. Other wolves would get their mate next week, assuming they eventually got one. Zyra knew that things were only going to get worse.She had caught the eye of the pack's alpha son, a handsome and popular wolf named Cade. But despite his interest in her, it was clear that he didn't truly care for her. It was all about
Zyra's POVI watched as they approached me with malice in their eyes, feeling a sense of dread wash over me. I tried to back away, but they closed in, encircling me in slow motion. These two were always a pain in my ass."What do you want from me?" I asked, my voice trembling with fear.Gaia, Alpha Grayson's daughter, sneered at me and replied, "We just want to have a little fun with you, Omega. You know how much we love playing with our toys." Her mocking tone sent a shiver down my spine.To be referred to as a toy once again – it was all too familiar. Cade had treated me the same way, playing with me as if I were just an object, and now his sister wanted to do the same.Elara laughed heartily at Gaia's statement and began to circle me, adding to the humiliation. "What a pathetic thing you are," Elara taunted."You should be dead by now.""Your parents are just as dumb as you are. It runs in the family," Gaia laughed, finding amusement in belittling me."There are more than a thousa
Zyra POVCade’s hand roamed over my body slowly, from my chest to my hips. He ran his hands back up and my boobs in his hands. I swallowed heavily and turned away to look at the window as I let the tears flow down my eyes slowly. “Do you have to do this?” I ask him and heard him scoff“Are you questioning me?” he laughs and pinned me down to the bed. I was forced to turn back at him.“You will see me f*ck you Zyra. You don’t deserve to be this beautiful when you are useless” he replied as he slid his down his hands down to my waist. I folded my lips in as I whimpered lowly and felt his fingers around my womanhood.“You are still a virgin right?” he asks and I nod my head hoping he wouldn’t go any further but he chuckles instead.“Sweet” he replied and slowly sent his two fingers inside of me.“Ah!” I yelped out in pain.“Yes, feel it” he snickers and lowered his face to my neck and began trailing kisses around my neck while he kept sending his fingers back and forth inside me.I am n
Cade's POV"Alpha Cade!" the crowd cheered as I walked in, my head held high. My father proudly placed his hands on my shoulders, a smile lighting up his face."Double celebration for us, Nightshade. Alpha Cade is plus one today!" he announced, and the room erupted in applause.I smiled, scanning the room until my gaze met Zyra's. Instantly, my smile faded as I noticed the stern expression on her face. She quickly looked away before I could react.Looks like someone has some guts now.I watched as she made her way back into the mansion, determined to get under my skin. Well, I would deal with her later.Amidst the congratulatory wishes from pack members, I grew tired of the noise. The celebration filled every nook and corner, and I decided to retreat inside the mansion. Kevin and Alex walked beside me as we made our way to the hall where the birthday festivities were taking place.Everything was going well—I had assumed my rightful position as the Alpha, the birthday celebration was i
