Revenge of the Richest Man free download pdf

The night was colder than usual in the forests surrounding the Shadowclaw pack's territory. A heavy fog rolled in, its tendrils creeping over the earth like an omen of something darker, something inevitable. Darius, the Alpha of the Shadowclaw pack, stood by the edge of the clearing, staring into the heart of the woods, where shadows seemed to move on their own.

"Something feels off," he murmured to himself, his voice low and rough. He had been the Alpha for over a decade, and the weight of leadership had begun to take its toll on him. His pack-once loyal and strong-was beginning to show signs of weakness, a fracture in its foundation that Darius couldn't explain. Even his closest allies, the ones who had once followed him without question, were now beginning to ask questions.

Darius shook his head. He had to remain focused. The pack's survival depended on his strength, his decisiveness. He was the protector, the one who had led them through countless battles, and he would continue to do so, no matter the cost.

But there was something else gnawing at him, something that felt like betrayal hanging in the air, like an invisible thread pulling at the fabric of his world. He couldn't shake the feeling that someone in his pack had turned against him. That someone had aligned themselves with Kael-the rogue who had once been his closest friend and his second-in-command. The man who had been a brother to him.

Kael. Darius clenched his fists at the thought of him. Years ago, they had fought side by side, led the pack together, and dreamed of a future where their wolves would rule the forest. But everything had changed when Kael had discovered the truth-the prophecy, the curse that bound their bloodlines. The Moonbane had marked him, and it was the beginning of the end.

Kael had become obsessed with revenge, convinced that the pack had abandoned him, that Darius had betrayed him by withholding the knowledge of the curse. He had gone mad with power, his transformation into the Shadowbane complete. Darius had tried to stop him, but Kael had already slipped beyond his reach, a creature of darkness, fueled by hatred.

The last time Darius had seen Kael, it had been a confrontation under the blood-red moon. Kael had confronted him with accusations, fury in his eyes, demanding to know why Darius hadn't warned him of the curse that had taken over his body. Darius had tried to explain, but Kael's mind was no longer his own. The shadow of vengeance had claimed him, and he had vanished into the night, leaving behind a pack divided.

Now, years later, the consequences of that night were beginning to catch up with Darius. The pack had splintered. Some had stayed loyal to him, but others-especially those who had once fought beside Kael-were beginning to question his leadership. They whispered about Kael's return, about the curse that still haunted their bloodline, and about the revenge he would seek.

Darius gritted his teeth and turned away from the clearing. He couldn't let his doubts consume him, not now. He had to act. The pack needed him. They needed a strong leader, not a man who hesitated, who doubted himself.

His thoughts were interrupted by a figure emerging from the shadows. Seraphine, his most trusted ally and closest confidante, approached silently, her silver fur glinting in the dim light. Her eyes, always sharp and calculating, met his.

"Alpha," she said, her voice steady but laced with concern. "The wolves are restless. They talk of Kael, of his return. They fear him."

"I know," Darius replied, his voice tense. "They think he'll come for us, to destroy everything we've built. But they don't understand. Kael is lost. He's no longer the wolf we knew. He's consumed by the curse, and there's no saving him."
