The Rise of the Half-Rank Wolf Chapter 66
AriFeeling Kristoff's embrace, his arms tenderly holding me from behind, a conflict raged within me. My initial instinct was to tell him to let go, reminding him of his marriage and commitment to someone else. It felt wrong, and I believed those feelings needed to be disregarded and halted before crossing a line."Enough, Kristoff. You are already married. Someone already owns you. This is not right. Those feelings need to be suppressed and stopped. Before it’s too late," I voiced my words a feeble attempt to rationalize the situation.Kristoff remained silent, continuing to hold me close as he closed his eyes.“Please, Kristoff. They might see us in this state. It would not be good for either of us. Please, let me go.”But Kristoff held me tighter as if he no longer cared about anything. In my mind, the desire to push him away lingered. But my heart betrayed me. Instead of pushing him away, my body seemed to have a mind of its own, surrendering to his loving embrace and succumbing t

AriLast night, I tasted heaven. But as the sun goes up, I'm back to my reality.“Start packing your things; we’re leaving.”Ulric asked everyone to prepare to leave. The memory of last night’s encounter still lingered inside my mind. I can't believe I gave myself to a married wolf. It bothers me, and it's something I would never be proud of.I'm talking to myself, feeling remorse about the mistake we both made. But still, something inside me is satisfied with what I did. I gave my precious first intimate time to the wolf I once dreamt of being with forever. The man who owned my heart from the beginning, the one who owns my soul and now my body.I was happy I did it with the man I love. But still, it didn’t make anything right. A sin is a sin, even though it was happily done. Or even if it was something right from someone’s point of view, a mistake is a mistake. Nothing could ever change that. Love was never forbidden, not until it was between a married wolf. The moon goddess's comman

AriThe news spread like wildfire. My heroic actions towards the daughter of the Ironwolf became the talk of the whole pack. Now, my name was known all over the place.One morning, as I went downstairs to start my day, gifts were scattered all over the place. It was a bewildering sight. I glanced at Ulric and Lady Aleria, who seemed to be waiting for my arrival."Good thing you're here," Ulric said as I approached. I walked beside him, eyeing the gifts piled at the doorsteps."Why are we flooded with gifts? Is there any occasion?" I asked, trying to make sense of the situation.Ulric scoffed, his disgust evident. I stared at him, waiting for an explanation."It's not. Those are from the high-ranking wolves, and every gift is written under your name," he explained.I gasped, confusion swirling in my mind. I didn't understand why I was receiving such attention. I grasped Ulric's arms, urging him to face me."WHAT? ME?! You know my origin isn't here. I know no one, Ulric. Especially thos

AriAs they approached, I couldn't help but notice the irritating smile etched on Maddie's face. Kristoff, on the other hand, remained indifferent, his expression giving nothing away. Despite the bitterness I felt towards them, I greeted them with the courtesy befitting their rank."Greetings, Jarl Kristoff, Lady Maddie."Despite the uncomfortable feeling I harbored towards Maddie and Kristoff, I knew I had to show them respect due to them being part of the Alpha family. I couldn't avoid facing Kristoff, especially considering his position within the pack as the future Alpha of Ironflame. And that goes the same for my sister, Maddie.Ulric's gaze was fixed on me as if he could sense what Maddie was thinking. Stepping forward, he positioned himself in front of me, shielding me, and responded to their greetings playfully." Greetings, Jarl Kristoff. How fortunate we are to have your presence bestowed upon us at this moment."Ulric bowed his head in a gesture of courtesy, all the while

KristoffOnce I was inside the room with Maddie, I lost myself and swept everything on top of the desk with my arms. The sight of Maddie’s face boiled my blood. My eyes were completely locked on her, and Maddie seemed intimidated as she took a step away from me. But I also took a step forward, chasing her.“Did you even realize what you did? You embarrassed me in front of the Ironwolf! You made me look like a fool in front of everybody!” I yelled, pointing my finger straight at Maddie's eyes. She looked terrified, stuttering as she tried to explain.“Don’t yell at me! It’s Ari’s fault! She’s the one you need to punish, not me!”I scoffed, running my hands through my hair. I felt stuck between yelling or just giving up the conversation because it seemed pointless. Maddie’s attitude was beyond terrible.“You are the worst,” I muttered, watching as Maddie's fear vanished from her eyes. Instead, they grew with indignation. Her eyebrows furrowed, and her jaw clenched.“HOW DARE YOU SAY THA

MaddieI stood up from the floor, my tears flowing like wild streams. Kristoff's words struck and pierced my delicate heart. I walked towards the mirror and saw my pitiful state. "I never thought fate would bring me into this misery."My spirit wolf, Greta, heard my suffering. I continued to cry as I remembered my life choices. "Tell me, Greta. What led me to this? Where did I go wrong to deserve this fate?"All I wanted was to experience love like everybody else. I wanted to feel the loving touch of someone. I wanted to feel safe in someone else’s arms, someone who would stand for me no matter what. "I've been loving him for so long... And yet his eyes were still locked on my sister."I sat on the small chair and cried, reminiscing the past years of my life. Unlike other she-wolves, I wasn't eager to meet my fated mate. For me, it was unnecessary. I was one of the very few wolves who believed that fated mates are not essential to a wolf’s life. As a wolf, we shouldn't be confined

AriLife in Skagi continued, and it was my sanctuary, away from those who might have wished me harm. Here, I felt safe, surrounded by people who cherished me. Skagi was my haven, but it also filled me with sadness, for it kept me apart from my own people."I'm sorry, everyone. It was the only way I could protect you," I whispered to myself, a heavy weight on my heart. Despite my longing to see my people, I had heeded Ulric and Lady Aleria's counsel. Avoiding the capital for the time being was the wisest choice, they said. It was to shield my people from the potential cruelty of Maddie and Seraphina, who wouldn't have hesitated to harm them to spite me. As my status had suddenly risen, I had become untouchable, but it only made them more vindictive towards those I cared about. It was a bitter truth, one I wished I hadn't had to accept."I just wished there was a way to reassure them why I had been absent," I murmured, hoping for a solution to bridge the distance between us.As long as

MaddieI couldn't take much more of it. Lady Joanna's lectures dragged on like a never-ending nightmare. Each day, her words sliced deeper into my patience, feeling even worse than enduring a flogging or being locked away.As Lady Joanna's lecture droned on, I stared blankly ahead, my mind wandering far from the suffocating lecture hall. Why bother with this training? It's been the same old lessons since I was a child. Greta's silence only added to the weight of boredom pressing down on me. I knew these lectures by heart, thanks to my mother's teachings, but they offered nothing new, only serving as punishment rather than education. The idea of revenge simmered within me, fueled by frustration. Lady Joanna promised to shape me into a future Luna, yet I gained nothing. Was she merely using me to cozy up to the Ironwolf? It felt like she volunteered to teach me to make herself look good in his eyes.Then, her voice cut through my mental fog. "Are you with us, Maddie?" Lady Joanna's qu
