Chapter 302
Chapter 302
I’m diving back into the Silver Crescent Pack universe to uncover what’s unfolding in Ben’s world after Kennedy’s departure with Ryker. This story will unfold more slowly, as I juggle this alongside two other projects. You can expect fresh chapters on the weekends, and if I manage to squeeze in a bonus installment midweek, you’ll be the first to know!
Here’s a glimpse into their story:
Ben had convinced himself that his chance was gone forever. Watching Kennedy walk away—leaving for another pack, another male’s embrace, and all by force- was nearly unbearable. She didn’t choose him. Instead, she chose freedom. And though it pained him deeply to admit it, Ben understood why. Kennedy had never wanted to be bound—not to him, not to anyone. She was wounded by the fact that everyone she trusted simply let her go. No one intervened when Ryker claimed her as his mate, as his property. Ben’s heart was torn between the woman he had loved quietly from afar for as long as he could remember and the responsibilities he owed to his Alpha and their pack.
So, he buried his pain beneath his obligations.
Now, as Beta of the Silver Crescent Pack, Ben stands firmly at Alpha Jeremiah’s side, his loyalty unwavering. Their pack is strong, stable, and flourishing under Jeremiah’s leadership. But peace is a fragile thing.
Tensions simmer to the west, where neighboring packs clash over ancient territorial boundaries. What began as minor skirmishes escalates into violent confrontations. When the death toll rises too high, Ben and Jeremiah are summoned to negotiate peace.
It’s during this uneasy truce that Ben sees her.
Elara is like fire draped in silk—stunning, sharp, and exuding undeniable authority. As the daughter of an Alpha, she’s been groomed to lead, raised to command. She is bold, fierce, and utterly untamed. She rejects the idea of mates outright and mocks the notion of destiny. She has her own path to forge, one that leaves no room for the whims of the Goddess.
But fate is indifferent to their desires.
When Elara’s parents are murdered under suspicious circumstances, she is left carrying the heavy burden of a grieving pack—and no male heirs remain to claim the mantle. Though she is the youngest potential Alpha and too young to officially take the throne, she is fiercely determined to protect her father’s legacy from falling into the wrong hands. With whispers of betrayal swirling within her own ranks, Elara finds herself forced to seek help from the very person she once rejected.
And Ben? After a year of numbness, something stirs within him—a spark he believed died the moment Kennedy left.
Desire.
Hope.
A mate’s bond reigniting with fierce intensity.
Yet, between Elara’s unyielding pride and Ben’s guarded heart, fate will have to fight hard to bring them together. Some wounds run too deep, and some destinies come wrapped in thorns. Both have packs to protect and duties to fulfill, with countless obstacles standing in their way.
Can two fractured hearts find strength in one another? Or will pride, betrayal, and the ghosts of their past tear them apart before they ever have the chance? Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on ⓝovelFind.net
