The Weight of Leadership
Kai had never imagined himself as part of a pack again, let alone standing beside an Alpha as his mate. But as Crescent Moon’s newly recognized Omega Alpha, he had responsibilities now.
“Leading isn’t just about fighting,” Lucas told him as they overlooked the pack’s lands. “It’s about guiding, protecting, and making hard choices.”
Kai nodded, but deep inside, doubt crept in. He had spent so long fighting for survival—was he truly fit to lead?
A Restless Night
Sleep didn’t come easily. Kai tossed and turned, haunted by memories of captivity.
Lucas woke beside him, sensing his distress. “You don’t have to do this alone,” he murmured.
Kai hesitated before whispering, “What if I fail?”
Lucas pulled him close. “Then we’ll fail together. And rise together.”
Kai exhaled, letting himself believe in that promise.
An Unseen Threat
Peace never lasted long. A scout arrived with troubling news—rogues were gathering beyond the borders.
“They aren’t Bloodfang,” Marcus reported. “But they’re organized.”
Lucas frowned. “Rogues don’t usually unite. Someone’s leading them.”
Kai’s gut twisted. He had seen this before—someone powerful was manipulating the outcasts.
And he had a terrible feeling it wasn’t over yet.
The Gathering Storm
Kai trained harder than ever, determined not to be a weakness. He sparred with warriors, studied strategy, and strengthened his bond with the pack.
One evening, Liana, the rogue omega they had taken in, approached him. “You think this is over, don’t you?” she asked.
Kai turned to her. “No. And that’s what worries me.”
She hesitated. “I think I know who’s behind it.”
Kai’s heart pounded. “Who?”
Ghosts of the Past
Liana’s voice was barely a whisper. “My old Alpha. His name is Soren.”
Lucas’s expression darkened. “Soren was exiled years ago. No pack would take him.”
Kai clenched his fists. “So he’s making his own.”
If Soren was behind this, then war wasn’t just coming—it was inevitable.
The First Strike
Before they could act, the rogues made their move. A Crescent Moon patrol was ambushed. Warriors returned injured, some didn’t return at all.
Rage burned in Lucas’s chest. “This ends now.”
Kai stepped forward. “Not yet. We need to be smart.”
Lucas’s eyes met his, and something unspoken passed between them. For the first time, Lucas wasn’t just leading—he was listening.
Kai wasn’t just an omega. He was an Alpha’s equal.
Into the Fire
Determined to learn more, Kai and Lucas led a small team to track the rogues.
They followed the scent deep into enemy territory, where they found something chilling—Soren’s army wasn’t just made of rogues.
It included former Bloodfang warriors.
And worse… some of them recognized Kai.
Soren’s Proposal
They barely escaped with their lives. But as they returned, a messenger arrived—a rogue, holding a white flag.
“Soren wishes to speak,” he announced.
Lucas growled. “It’s a trap.”
Kai agreed. “But it’s one we need to walk into.”
Lucas turned to him. “You’re sure about this?”
Kai exhaled. “No. But if we don’t face him now, we may not get another chance.”
The Face of an Old Enemy
The meeting was set at neutral ground. Kai and Lucas arrived, flanked by warriors.
Soren stood waiting, his presence suffocating. He was older now, but no less dangerous. His golden eyes locked onto Kai.
“You’ve grown stronger,” Soren mused. “Good. That means you’ll survive what’s coming.”
Lucas snarled. “There won’t be anything coming. You’ll end this, or we will.”
Soren smirked. “You think you’ve already won, little Alpha? This is just the beginning.”
Kai felt the weight of those words deep in his bones.
A War Begins
Soren left them with a warning—Crescent Moon had one week to surrender or be destroyed.
Lucas turned to Kai. “We don’t surrender.”
Kai set his jaw. “No. We fight.”
The final battle was coming. And this time, there would be no mercy.
