The Girl He Banished

Accused of treason and banished from her pack, Eirene Waters was left for dead. Ten years later, she is Viper, the masked leader of rogues, striking fear into the hearts of packs. When her path crosses with the Alpha King who cast her out, Mateo, their intertwined past and volatile present ignite a battle of wills, hatred, and an undeniable, dangerous connection. Will vengeance consume them, or can a shattered bond ever be mended?

The air in the Redmoon Pack's courtroom hung heavy, thick with anticipation and the scent of fear. All eyes were fixed on Eirene Waters, a mere girl of seventeen, silver chains biting into her wrists, her face a mask of pain. Whispers of "traitor's daughter" snaked through the hushed crowd.

The council member's voice boomed, condemning her father, Derek Waters, for his "betrayal." Eirene's grip tightened on the banister, the brutal image of her father's lynching flashing before her eyes, a fresh wave of tears blurring her vision.

"Do you, Eirene Waters, know of your father's scheming to collude with the rogues?" The question pierced the silence. Her subconscious screamed, 'Lie!' But she couldn't. "I did," she whispered, the truth a raw wound. Gasps erupted, anger burning in the onlookers' eyes. She met the speaker's gaze, her voice cold. "Because he was right. My father did nothing wrong by killing the Alpha."

Chaos erupted, guards struggling to contain the enraged crowd. "You say your father was right in planning the attack and getting our Alpha killed?""Yes," she answered without hesitation, signing her own death sentence. A shiver ran down her spine as the final judgment approached.

"Eirene Waters is hereby declared a traitor... to be hang—"

A commanding voice cut through the clamor. "Stop!" The crowd parted as Mateo King, the new Alpha, strode in, his grey eyes locking with Eirene's brown ones. He was no longer her childhood friend, but the unforgiving Alpha King, son of the man her father murdered. The judgment was far from over.
