I leaned forward, wrapping my arms tightly around his muscular torso, feeling the taut strength beneath my grip.

This mutual detachment granted me a fragile sense of peace, though it was fleeting. Yet, I felt increasingly confined, suffocated by the invisible walls of the pack’s territory.

Chapter: Chapter 9Lysandra POVA shiver ran through me, sweeping across my entire body, and a bead of sweat traced a line down my temple. Slowly regaining control of my senses, I noticed the alpha approaching, his sleeves rolled up to reveal the strong contours of his forearms, his shirt slightly open to display the sculpted muscles of his chest, and the warm, tanned hue of his skin.

Chapter: Chapter 7Lysandra POVAs we stepped into the camp, dozens of scrutinizing eyes instantly fixed on us. In the distance, I spotted Nymeris with her husband, while little Arion played a few feet away from them. A familiar uneasiness crept through me, and for a fleeting moment, I silently begged that this celebration would not stretch endlessly. Every question I had asked earlier had been dodged with the same vague justification that this alliance was crucial for the survival of our people. But why? No one had offered a real explanation, and the mystery behind my own involvement still lingered like a shadow.My gaze drifted across the surroundings.
