Damien's POVThe air grew heavy with her scent—a sweet, intoxicating scent that drifted through the air like it mattered—marking her presence undeniably and unapologetically. What the hell was she even doing here? I drove a sharp punch right into the heavy leather bag, and it swung lazily away from me—evidence of weak punches sent to the bag.I could vent my anger on it all day, but it was useless; every breath I took was already saturated with her scent, making my focus impossible and messed up. I shouldn't have been surprised. Humans had always disrupted, weakened, and contaminated everything they touched.My wolf growled fiercely deep inside me, and a name I'd rather lose the whole fortune to the Remington bloodline and die than let it exist as it reverberated through my skull—uninvited, dangerous.This was it. Wherever the hell she had existed before tonight, she was better off there because I never wanted her here. She was human after all. A fckig human.No better than the

Rea's POVThe door slammed shut, with a thunderous bang and a sudden silence pressed hard against me.My eyes were tied with a thick piece of cloth that replaced my vision with a heavy darkness and left terror clenched around my chest.Then I heard it—strong fist stricking on a heavy leather bag; each strike rattling the whole room in such a way that left me flinching at every sharp jab delivered to the object. Every nerve tangled with curiosity, not knowing what awaited in here me since I'd just been dragged in to meet the Alpha—Damien or whatever his name was. I mumbled a few prayers to heavens hoping it would relief the tight grip of terror in my stomach.In a few minutes, I'd be staring at a man I was warned about and coaxed into meeting him by circumstances, rather than choice—waiting while he decided what he'd do with me.Then.The sound stopped and I heard heavy strides approach me. It was unhurried; it was measured, like he had calculated each step and it almost seemed

Rea's POVThe air wasn't just chilled; it smelled faintly of damp leaves as I raced far into the wolves' domain.Cold winds sliced across my face as I forced my way through brittle twigs, letting the snow bite my skin, while withered leaves and broken branches clung to my pullovers until, finally, I found the gate.The gate!The massive iron gate shielding the alpha's space exuded so much power and authority that the sight alone sent shivers down my spine. A warning that no one could cross the territory recklessly and go scot-free, let alone me, a mere wolfsbane thief.I stared at the gate for a while, exhaling deeply and convincing myself that I needed this more than anything in the world, and therefore, fear had no place in my heart.My eyes stayed glued on the gate that towered above, my heart hammering against my chest, so loud I could hear it, thoughts racing in my head. How do I get in?The night was quiet except for distant howls and small rodents chittering, then suddenly a

Rea's POVThe air was thick with the sharp stench of antibiotics, iodine, and phenol, the kind that made you think you had just stepped into a hospital or a drugstore, not a rustic cabin where a family of four lived. Mum sat at the edge of the bed, leaning over Dad's chest as she gently rubbed his chest in slow circles, trying to ease the pain coursing through him. I sat alone on the two-seater armchair just beside the old wooden bed where Dad lay, while Riley leaned on the framed artwork hung low by the wall, hands clutched tight around her little Barney like that would ease the ache in her heart.Our eyes were swollen and red-rimmed from too many tears, and our faces were contorted with fear and worry as we both watched the dying man writhe in pain from his illness. "The wolfsbane...I…" Dad managed to speak in a hoarse whisper before his voice cut off abruptly as if the words cost him blood to form. He took a labored breath and continued, eyes struggling to stay open. "No hum
