34 years later…

Today was supposed to be one of the best days of my life. Today, my brother was supposed to be crowned as the new Alpha, a day we both have been waiting for since we were kids. My brother’s biggest dream was to claim his throne as an Alpha, and mine was to see him as one. And today was the day it was supposed to happen.

But now he lay here, on the cold hard floor.

Dead.

“Ivan!” I shook him violently, my body burning with unspeakable pain, blood trickling down the corner of my lips and from almost every part of my body. But I could not care about any of that at the moment.

“Ivan! Please wake up!” I sobbed, hoping, praying with all I got to the Moon Goddess that by some miracle he would wake up.

But he lay there, still and silent, his body slowly turning cold. Coughing and fighting to keep myself from falling apart, I gazed around and all I could see was destruction, my pack burning to the ground.

A few hours ago, this place was bustling with people ready to celebrate; my mom, dad, brother, his mate, and all the pack members. And now…everything was just destroyed. Just like that.

I didn’t know where everyone was. The only thing I could see were dead bodies and everything destroyed to the ground.

“This is the girl.” I gazed up, and two gigantic men loomed in front of me, staring down at me with a steely gaze. One was platinum blonde with piercings and the other one had caramel hair.

“Take her,” the platinum guy said. “Alpha must be waiting for her,” the caramel one leaned down to grab my arm, his eyes deadpan. I quickly moved away and shot him a glare.

“Don’t you dare touch me,” I sneered, tears spilling down my eyes. “Who the f**k are you?!”

The platinum one looked bored, and giving me a look, nodded to someone behind me. I whirled around and blinked, a blinding pain shot through my neck as someone stabbed me with something sharp.

And before I knew it…the world turned dark.

When my eyes opened, I found myself in a plush bedroom, lying on an enormous bed. My entire body ached as I pushed myself into a sitting position. The room was dimly lit, but once my vision adjusted to it, I froze as unfamiliar hazel eyes peered back at me. He had a crystal glass in his hand, which he twirled around as he sat back and appraised me in silence.

“Who are you?” I hissed, discreetly moving back. I immediately felt repulsed by whoever this guy was, half of his face visible and half hidden by the darkness. “Where am I?”

“Ivyanka…fascinating name you got there,” his voice was heavy and deep.

Slowly, like a wolf ready to pounce on his prey, he moved closer, emerging from the darkness. I blinked and I can’t remember ever seeing him before. He had a sharp face, an extremely sharp face, messy sandy-blonde hair, piercing hazel eyes with hues of gold, and deep-set dark eyebrows.

“What do you want?” I repeated. “Did you attack my pack? Where is my family?” He stood up with a graceful movement and walked over to sit down beside me. I shot him a dirty look when he ran his knuckles on my cheek. His hands were icy. And his scent... there was something not right with it. Something repealing.

“Yes, I am the one who attacked your pack,” he answered, locking his hazel eyes on mine. “You are now in my pack and your family…is dead. My men killed them, all of them.” I froze, my entire body recoiling as I blankly stared back at him.

“I am alpha Killian Price, beautiful,” he added.

Killian Price? Who was that? I have never seen or even heard of him before.

“What do you want?” I sneered, my hands itching to hit him. But somehow, I felt too weak. “I am going to kill you, whoever the f**k you are.”

“Hmm, I thought you’d be more interested in negotiating how you can save your father who is…still alive.” I blinked at him, a brief glimmer of hope rising in my heart.

“Daddy…” I whispered. “Wh…where’s my father?”

“Safe…for now. And it depends on you for how long he will stay safe. Rather…how long he would get to live,” he replied, c*****g his head to the side.

“What do you want?” I repeated. “Why are you doing this to us?”

“Your father refused to accept my proposal earlier, little Alpha, against my warning. Typical Alpha ego got in the way, I believe. And Killian always gets what he wants, does not matter how.”

“Why would you want our pack? We aren’t big or wealthy or even powerful. We are just a small pack of warriors…that’s all.” His lips twitched a bit while his eyes darkened as he leaned closer to me.

“Who said I wanted your pack?”

“Then what is it you want?” The stranger reached out and ran his icy thumb across my bottom lip.

“You. All I wanted was…you, little Alpha,”

What?

“Why?”

“Because you are going to help me with something I have been waiting years for. If only your father had listened to me, your pack and your family would be safe. But look at what his stupid ego did. I hope you won’t repeat the same mistake, Ivyanka. If you do as I ask, I will make sure your father stays alive and well, in return.”

“What do I need to do?” I whispered.

“You are going to help me destroy my biggest enemy ever, one of the strongest and largest packs in the world. I have some old accounts that need to be settled.” I blinked at him, not sure if I heard him right.

“Wh…which pack?” I demanded. Killian’s eyes darkened, and his lips sneered evilly.

“GrayCrest,”
