Audden alert howl from the guard perimeter crackled through the warriors
Rogues Spotted near the eastern border
Within seconds, the calm shattered into swift, decisive action.
The Alphas moved immediately, their wares following without hesitation.
Francesco didn’t waste a breath–he gave a few sharpmands in his deep,manding voice, summoning his Fourth Warrior to his side.
Meanwhile, six of his elite warriors remained close, circling protectively around me and the other Lunas gathered inside the Alpha mansion
<b>Despite </b>the walls and the number of trained fighters surrounding us, a prickle of unease traced down my spine. It was a dangerous situation
But more than fear for myself, my heart ached with worry… for him. For Francesco,
I knew he was powerful–stronger than <b>any </b>Alpha here- but i had just found him. I couldn’t bear the thought of losing him now, not when we had barely begun.
The tension in the air was palpable. Lunas huddled closer, whispering prayers or sending silent mind links to their mates. The warriors stood at full alert, their bodies tight, ears straining for the faintest hint of threat.
Through the windows, I caught glimpses of movement–shadows darting among the <b>trees</b>, snarls cutting through the stillness
The robes must have caught wind of the gathering of Alphas and sought to unleash chaos
But what they didn’t know what they couldn’t have known–was that among these gathered leaders was a force far beyond their reckoning
A Lycan Alpha.
A monster… a storm cloaked in wolf skin.
Francesco Totti Lycaon…
And tonight, they had made the fatal mistake of endangering his Luna.
Something ancient and primal stirred in the air–a shift so palpable it made every werewolf in the mansion stiffen.
A low, vicious growl, bigger than usual werewolf, echoed from the battlefield.
Francesco had joined the hunt.
I pressed my hand against my chest, feeling the fierce rhythm of my heart as the band between us pulsed stronger than ever.
His fury radiated through the link, a white hot ze that promised devastation to any who dared Lay a threat before me
Outside, the battle had already turned. ”
Those rogues hadn’t prepared for what they faded.
Francesco moved like a phantom among them a blur of raw, terrifying strength. One after another, the rogues fell, barely having time to realize thin

The other Alphas, seasoned warriors in their own right, could only watch in stunned awe as Francesco tore through the enemy ranks with brutal
Now they say
They saw why, once, he had been called the Monster Alpha
Why, once, even the basest warriors had bowed their heads when he passed.
Why the Moon Goddess had created a fated one for him to tame the storm, to soften the beast.
Because without that anchor, Francesco was unstoppable. Dangerous not just to his enemies but to the world itself.
Three hours.
That’s all it took. Three hours to sweep the territory clean, to tear apart everyst rogue foolish enough to step foot into ckpinends tonight
Francesco’s scent–sharp,manding, uniquely <b>Lycan- </b>lingered thick in the air, a warning no sane creature would dare ignome

Inside the mansion, I stood near the window, my hand trembling slightly against the ss.
Tears blurred my vision, but they weren’t bom from <b>fear </b>
No. They were tears of awe.

He was mine. And I was his
Behind me, the other Lunas whispered in stunned amazement, their warriors murmuring prayers of gratitude for having someone like him among their
ranks.
But amidst the triumph, one figure stood isted consumed by bitter despair.
Ruben.
I caught sight of him across the room, his face pale, twisted with something between rage and helplessness.
He had seen it too. He had witnessed with <b>his </b>own eyes the sheer force of the being I now belonged to. A power he could never match.
A mate he could never be. And he hated it.
He hated knowing that I had found someone stronger. Better.

And for the first time in what fell like forever, Tumiled.
I quickly turn my head the moment the front doors of the mansion creaked open, every sound in the room seemed to vanish,
My beat lurched violently in my chest
And there he was. Francesco…
He stepped inside, towering andmanding, every inch the victorious Lycan Alpha.
His ck shirt was torn at the shoulder, works ripped across the fabric, and streaks of blood–not his own–stained his hands and arms.
His hair was disheveled, his sharp jaw set hard, his golden eyes burning with a raw, feral light that hadn’t yet dimmed.
And yet… when his gaze found me across the room, something shifted.
The fury melted away, reced by something achingly tender. A low, rumbling growl vibrated from deep within his chest–not of anger now, but of need. Ofrelief.
Without thinking, without caring who watched, Iran to him.
The warriors around me parted instinctively, sensing the urgency between us. I crashed into <b>his </b>chest, my arms wrapping tightly around him.
He caught me effortlessly, lifting me off the <b>ground </b>as he buried his face in the crook of my neck, breathing me in like I was the only thing keeping him

“I’m here,” I whispered, tears slipping down my cheeks. “I’m safe,”

He pulled back just enough to look at me, onerge hand cradling my face with such gentleness it shattered something inside me.
His thumb brushed away my tears,
“You are mine,” Francesco rasped, his voice horse and heavy
y with emotion. “No one… will ever touch you, harm you. Not while I breathe”
The bond between us pulsed like a living thing, thrumming with fierce love, pride, and overwhelming possessiveness
Around <b>us</b><b>, </b>the world blurred.
It didn’t matter that dozens of Alphas, Lunas, warriors were still present.
In this moment, it was just us.
Francesco leaned in, his forehead resting against mine, his breathing ragged.
