Gavin's POV Marrok pulled his horse to a stop ahead of me. His chest heaved. "This is it." I reined in beside him. "What? You dragged me all this way for WHAT?" "Just…" He dismounted. His boots hit the ground hard. "You need to see it yourself." "See what?" I stayed in my saddle. "Your paranoia?" His jaw tightened. He tied his reins to a branch with quick, jerking movements. "I'm not paranoid." "Then tell me." I gestured at the empty forest around us. "Why are we out here? In the middle of nowhere?" "I can't." He pushed through the undergrowth. Branches snapped under his hands. "Can't or won't?" I called after him. He stopped. Turned. The moonlight cut across his face, turning his eyes to steel. "The evidence is you seeing it. But you're too blind." "Blind?" I finally dismounted. My hand went to my sword

Lily's POVI made it back to the servants' quarters, my shift still damp, my lips still burning with the memory of his touch.Marathiel looked up from her pallet. "Lily, where have you…"The door slammed open.Kia stood in the doorway, Seraphina and Zaryth flanking her. Behind them, I caught a glimpse of Mira's face, pale, frightened, satisfied.She'd seen. She'd told."You," Kia said softly. Dangerously.My blood turned to ice."On your knees."I didn't move fast enough. Seraphina's hand clamped on my shoulder, shoving me forward. I stumbled, my back screaming as the whip wounds tore open."My lady, what did I…" I started."Silence!" Zaryth snapped.Hands grabbed me. Forced me down. Pain exploded through my back, fresh blood soaking through my damp shift.Kia walked forward slowly, something bronze gleaming in her hand. Shaped like a ser

Lily’s Pov“What is going on here?” Kia’s voice holds suspicionMy blood turned ice. Elta bleeding, Marathiel and I restraining her, the three of us tangled on the floor.Fenric stood in the doorway, His eyes swept around. “You’ve broken the first rule, stay invisible!” Seraphina barked“She had a nightmare” Marathiel said quickly“We were trying to calm her…” Zaryth cut me off “Quiet!” Zaryth stepped inside. “On your feet, Now!”Elta’s sobs reduced to low whimpering. Marathiel released me, scrambling backward. I pushed myself upright , head spinning , blood sticky on my face.Fenric raised his hand, and I felt it. The scorchveil spread like invisible fingers through the air, tracking my scents.“Shit!” His growl made me flinch. “Her damned blood masked their scents” He roared, fury bleeding through his voice. “I can't tell if any of them were in the corridor earlier.”Kia moved closer “A Tervin?” Kia's lips curled. They remember the future but not their own death.” She smirked

Lily’s povMy head clutters with thoughts, “Why did I wait? I saw Gavin’s betrothed in the arms of a Beta. “What was I after?” My mind raced as Fenric power bled from him in waves, hot and suffocating. A hand seized my waist, tugging me to the corner. My lips curled at the touch.“Shh.” the hand didn't let go. “ Stop screaming, unless you wish for death” The hand slowly released my mouth “What, How , Who” I squirmed, my pulse pounding in my ears, every muscle tensed.“I was curious as hell as to how you got yourself into shit but that would be later” the voice replied “Can I at least see your face?” I whispered frantically, trying to turn and see his face.“Please, you could have let him catch me with his scorchveil but why help me” I muttered desperately“Trust me, I don't want to, but I am tired of blood stench, and honestly you don't know what he does to people whose eyes, ears or lips wander around” My eyes adjusted to the darknessFenric’s footsteps paused nearby.“Did you c

Lily’s PovWakie, Wakie!Water crashes over my head, piercing through my ear and my body freezes against the cell floor. Shivering violently as I lazily open my eyes. Seraphina glares at me, her face pale. She clutched an empty bucket in her hands.Zaryth's voice cut through the haze from the corridor.“Slaves are still sleeping?” She hissed, standing outside the cell’s iron barred door with ten other figures.Marathiel coughed as though her throat was burning.The Overseers stood in two neat lines, five on either side of her, some masked, some bare but all devoid of mercy.“Up,” Seraphina barked.I tried to rise, but agony tore through my shoulders. The wounds had scabbed over during the night, and now every movement threatened to tear them open again. I bit down hard on my lip to keep from crying out. “Out. Line yourselves horizontally in front of your cells,” Zaryth's eyes gleamed like poisoned glass.I stumbled to my feet, using the wall for support. Each breath sent fresh waves

Gavin’s povThe night air tasted sharp, the moon carved silver into the treetops, painting shadows that shifted like watchful spirits. Beneath my paws the ground was soft, layered with fallen leaves and the faint trails of animals that had come to drink from the stream earlier that night.“Keep your distance,” I murmured, my voice rough but steady. The wolves nearest to me dipped their heads, ears flicking in acknowledgment. Obedience. That was what kept us alive, discipline, not frenzy.Marrok padded at my side, silent for a long while before finally speaking. “Alpha Gavin, do you ever think about it?”I glanced at him. “About what?”“Whether the deer has a family waiting. Whether it feels what we would feel, if one of us didn’t return.”The question was strange from him. He’s sharp-minded and merciless in battle. Yet now his eyes glimmered with something heavier.I did not answer right away. My gaze flicked to Fenric, who trotted just behind us, muttering something under his breath
