Alpha Darius’s POV The war drums had fallen silent since I returned to my territory…I had ordered the war quiet, and every strike halted. My soldiers didn’t understand, but they obeyed.. I could feel their unease and their hunger for blood denied. Wolves were creatures of instinct, and mine had been honed into weapons. But weapons without release rust, and I knew the pressure building behind their restraint could erupt into chaos. And yet… I had no choice. Selena's face haunted me in the silence.. The girl who had once been clinging to my youth was now the flame burning through my thoughts. I had sworn to conquer Karren, to topple his pack and prove to the Elders that I was the one true Alpha but that didn't matter anymore. I have turned to a man, bleeding with a love I hadn’t expect
