Introduction
"Keep me alive? You’re dragging me straight to hell! My exams, my life, even the right to drink a damn coffee in peace，you’ve wrecked it all!"
1820, under a blood moon. Alpha King Aldrich watched his pregnant mate die, his kingdom burn. Rescued from the executioner’s block by rogue wolves, he dug his nails into the dirt and swore: every debt would be paid in blood.
The Great Red Moon Prophecy had promised him an heir，the strongest Alpha to ever walk. He’d believed it. Gambled everything. And lost.
Centuries later, in a London café, final-year nursing student Aiden chugs coffee over his finals notes. One step from his white coat, until a man named Aldrich walks in and drops a secret that makes his hands shake.
"You’re half-werewolf." The man’s voice is ice. "And you’re the one from the prophecy. The ‘strongest’."
Normalcy shatters like his coffee mug. Aiden only knows this: since the man arrived, the weirdness haven’t stopped—wolf howls outside his dorm, emotions spiking out of control, strange eyes watching him from the shadows.
He hates Aldrich. Hates the chaos, hates the weight in his eyes, hates the flicker of something unfamiliar in his own chest.
But when the first threat，claw marks, bloodstained，appears on his dorm door, when he finds his mother’s "accidental death" wasn’t an accident, Aiden has to face it.
Some fates won’t stay buried.
Shadows from 1820. Fangs hidden in modern streets. All of them are hunting the "strongest",hunting "him".
Aldrich says he won’t lose again. But as Aiden stares at the centuries-old king’s back, shielding him from the dark, he can’t help wondering—
What did he lose, all those years ago?
And why… "him"?
Chapter 1
Chapter one: Blood Moon Of War.
England, 1840.
The moon bleeds into the night , visibly red. The blood moon was out. There was an ambush on this , blood spilled on the very white snow.
“Fall back, everyone now. Protect the walls of the kingdom”, King Aldrich barked orders commanding his warriors. He kept yelling orders as the whole kingdom was crushed under chaos.
Aldrich transforms to his beast form as gets surrounded by three wolves. He was outnumbered but managed to kill them off sustaining just a bite by his side of his ribs.
Wolves fangs and teeth snapped at each other, ripping each other into pieces. His warriors were greatly outnumbered.
This attack wouldn't have been possible if someone had betrayed him from inside his courts. He had everything under control, where did it all go wrong?.
His kingdom was under attack by a rival cruel wolf kingdom.
Aldrich ran towards his castle. The fire was beginning to engulf the walls. Even half of the village was disappearing to ashes.
“Liora”, he thought to himself.
His pregnant wife was in the castle.
“I cannot lose you or my child, Liora”
He ran in his beast form towards their room but she wasn't there.
The room was disoriented, like she was forcefully taken away from here.
He changed to his human form, yelling her name desperately.
“Liora!,Liora!”
“Aldrich, help me!”, he heard her scream. He followed the sound where it was coming from.
“Over here, your majesty or should I say Aldrich now?”
It was Regnok, his second in command, best friend and a Beta. He had a knife over Liora’s throat.
“You better let her go this minute, I command you now”
“Aldrich, you just don't get it?. You are not king anymore. You were betrayed by some of the chiefs in your courts. Do you think we're going to open our eyes and let you have the most powerful Alpha”
“You were so focused on your prophecy heir you had on the way, you didn't know what was going on under your nose”, he laughed maliciously.
“Why are you doing this, Regnok. My husband trusted you. Please, this isn't you. ”, Liora cried.
“How about you shut up, Liora. You knew I wanted you first but rejected me”
“All of you are going to pay, how dare you do this to me? Where's your dignity? I made you my second in command, what else do you want from me”
“Being Second is being the first to lose. I have always lost to you, Aldrich. It doesn't matter anymore, the prophecy of having the most powerful heir would never be fulfilled”
Regnok drives the knife deep into Liora’s stomach twice, tossing her off the castle tower immediately as she falls to her demise.
“NO!!”, Aldrich yelled as he launched to go after her.
He got hit by something hard, sending him the opposite direction.
Regnok was already in his beast form. Biting him by the ribs and hind legs so he couldn't move.
“Nahhh, not so fast. She's dead now”
“Seize him but keep him alive. The new king decides what to do with him”
“Burn everything to the ground, everyone I say. Anything valuable you can keep for yourself including the women”,Regnok commands the warriors.
The kingdom and everything Aldrich ever had crumbled, disappearing into ashes before his eyes.
Thrown into a cage as he drifts in and out of consciousness. He cannot die, he had to take revenge on everyone that conspired to take part in the coup that cost him his precious wife and mate with their unborn child.
He failed her, and his kingdom. He lost everything, how can the moon goddess forsake him this way.
The cart rocked gently, taking the cage that Aldrich was held captive away.
“Ah”, he heard a scream from a guard.
Then a sharp snark and howling for somewhere in the dark. But this one wasn't from the guards but from someone else.
“Merrick, he's here.”, a feminine voice but sharp and commanding.
She breaks open the lock of the cage in a blink of an eye.
Aldrick tried lifting his head but the heavy chains on his neck made it difficult.
“Your Majesty, we came to rescue you. Please, stay with us”, he heard that voice again.
The chain broke under claws.
“Grants, make sure you get him to safety. We will cover you.”
“Alright, Fiona”
“Let's deal with these guards now”, said Merrick.
Fiona drew her sword while Merrick transformed to his beast form.
Grants lifts Aldrich up and he runs with great speed into the dark.
No matter how many centuries it was going to take. Aldrich swore under the moon to have his revenge and prayed to the moon goddess to give him a second chance, a second mate to fulfill the prophecy. .

He reached for the back of my head and pulled me up just enough to reach my neck. When his fangs slid into me, the pain was instant, electric. I couldn’t breathe. I couldn’t think. My hands found his shoulders, clawing for something to hold. My legs kicked. Tears streamed down my cheeks.

I fell to my knees, the cold marble digging into my skin. I had studied for years in the flickering candlelight, memorizing every herb and poison to pass the healer's exam. I wanted freedom. I wanted to save my mother from the servant's quarters. I placed second. I thought I had won my life back.
But the King didn't give me a badge of honor. He gave me a death sentence.
"Raven Thorne shall be wed to the King of Grok," he announced, his voice echoing in the silent hall. Princess Ellie, the woman who had tormented me for years, slapped her hands over her mouth to hide her cruel laughter. She was supposed to marry the Beast. Now, I was the lamb being sent to the slaughter in her place.

I sold my body and soul to a monster to save her. But when the carriage door opened and I finally looked into the Beast's golden eyes, I realized the terrifying truth...
He wasn't a stranger. He was the man I met in the woods.

She lay before him in all her magnificent beauty draped across his king-size bed in the most compelling and provocative way known to man or beast. And for Alpha Zayne, it was the most captivating view he had ever had the pleasure of seeing with his own eyes.
She stared at his every movement, lips slightly parted, her stunning brown eyes scanning every inch of his gorgeously toned and glorious body while heat radiated off of hers. He was HERS.
Her body trembled in delight and anticipation; she was ready and wanted to be with him in every way.

Human Capture (Up North #2)
Raised in a starving settlement choked by a vast, unforgiving forest, Lara learned early that survival has a price. To keep her family alive, she became a master hunter—agile, silent, and deadly with an array of mismatched blades. But the forest has eyes, and one evening, the shadows dragged her away.
Nine months later, Lara breaks free from a concrete dungeon, only to find herself stranded in the lawless, rogue-infested wilds of Avers Land alongside four captured werewolf girls. Seeking refuge in the neighboring territory of Illyen, she expects to find a way back to her human life. Instead, she is brought face-to-face with Alpha Rowan, the terrifying, ruthless ruler of the frozen North.
One look into Lara’s eyes, and the Alpha’s world shatters. His eyes turn an absolute shade of black. The bond is undeniable. She is his fated mate.
But a human cannot survive the brutal political landscape of the North, and Rowan openly rejects the bond, dragging her onto a warship bound for a kingdom that views her as a fragile liability. Trapped between a mate who refuses to love her and a court of monsters waiting for her to break, Lara must use every hunter's instinct she possesses. Because in the realm of wolves, a human must either grow claws of her own—or perish in the snow.
