Fiona's pov

“Something’s wrong,” Kael said.

He was crouched in the dead grass, gloved fingers brushing the edge of the circular stone embedded in the earth. The seal was so faded it barely looked like anything at all, just another forgotten mark worn down by wind and time.

But I could feel it.

I didn’t need to see the runes. I could feel them under my skin.

I stepped closer, ignoring the sharp whisper of Logan’s warning behind me.

“Careful,” he said, rising to his feet.

I went to my knees in the dust beside Kael. The seal was smooth, unnaturally so, and ice-cold under my fingertips. A low vibration hummed through it, like a heartbeat buried miles deep.

“This is it,” I whispered.

“The tether?” Nira asked quietly, standing at Logan’s side.

I nodded. “The twin of time. It’s underneath us.”

Logan’s hand settled on my shoulder. “And what exactly does that mean?”

I looked up at him.

“It means the other half of the first realm. The one Mia corrupted. The one I sealed.” I swallowed. “That re

  • A DEAL WITH THE ALPHA DEVIL   Inner conflict

    Fiona's povThe courtyard hadn’t cooled since Rowan’s retreat. Every step I took left a mark in the soot.Logan was somewhere behind me, silent as the shadows. He hadn’t said a word since Gwen vanished.I didn’t ask. I didn’t trust my voice to hold steady.Inside the hall, healers worked in silence. Wounded wolves lined the walls, faces pale under torchlight. One of them tried to bow when I passed. I told him not to.The fire in me hadn’t gone out. It only changed shape.When Serena met me near the stairwell, she didn’t speak. She just studied my face — her eyes sharp, her mouth set.“She’s real then,” she finally said.“Too real,” I answered.“She’s dangerous.”“So am I.”Serena stepped closer, her scent cutting through the smoke. “He froze when he saw her.”“I noticed.”“You’re going to let that go?”I looked past her, toward the shattered courtyard. “I don’t let go. I wait.”Serena’s lips curved, not quite a smile. “That’s worse.”Hours later, the hall emptied. The moon crept acros

  • A DEAL WITH THE ALPHA DEVIL   Darkness ungolds

    Logan's povThe wind outside Whiteclaw shifted like the type that carried a warning long before the messenger arrived. I felt it before I heard the horns.The guards dragged a body through the gate. One of Rowan’s soldiers, half-dead, trembling. His message came out broken,“He’s coming again… not alone.”I should’ve felt anger. Instead, I felt something heavier settle behind my ribs.Fiona stood beside me. “He won’t stop, will he?”“No,” I said. “Not until he believes I’m broken.”She looked at me for a moment too long, as if searching for a piece of the man I used to be. I couldn’t give it to her.When the soldier finally died, I caught his scent, mixed with something familiar. Something I hadn’t smelled in years.Gwen.The name hit me like an echo I wasn’t ready for.She’d been gone long before Fiona. I buried her in my memory and never looked back. But now, that faint trace clung to Rowan’s man like a ghost wearing perfume.Fiona noticed the change in me. “Who is it?”“No one,” I

  • A DEAL WITH THE ALPHA DEVIL   Take the bow immidiately

    Logan's povThe next dawn found Whiteclaw uneasy. Every wolf in the stronghold moved like someone listening for a sound only they could hear.Logan walked the inner wall alone. From up here the pack looked smaller, corners empty, sentries keeping their eyes on one another instead of the trees. He could smell fear everywhere tangled together.Below, Fiona was training a fresh patrol. Her voice carried through the chill air, calm but edged. Serena moved among the recruits, her movements precise, her expression unreadable. Watching them side by side unsettled him in a way he couldn’t name.He was still watching when footsteps approached behind him.Amaiya.She had no right to be in his territory, and yet she walked straight toward him, cloak snapping in the wind, eyes cold. “You didn’t finish the job,” she said. “Your pack still looks broken.”“I should throw you off this wall,” Logan answered.“You could,” she said lightly, “but you won’t. You still want to know who opened the gates for

  • A DEAL WITH THE ALPHA DEVIL   Beyond shadows

    Fiona's povWakanda watched the fire rise from the ridge. The clash below had already died down , screams fading, steel buried in silence. His soldiers waited behind him, restless, the scent of blood hanging in the air.“They slipped through,” one muttered.Wakanda didn’t answer. His eyes burned through the haze, searching for movement among the ruins. He could still feel her power, his daughter’s , a wild, pulsing thing that should have died under his command but hadn’t.He closed his hands behind his back. The iron rings on his fingers cut into his skin. “Pull the men back,” he said.The soldier hesitated. “But, my king....”“I said back,” Wakanda snapped. His voice carried the kind of weight that crushed obedience from air.The men retreated, boots cracking over ash and stone.When the ridge cleared, Wakanda sank to one knee, the mountain wind pulling at his cloak. The soil was warm where Fiona’s flames had touched it. He pressed his palm against the earth and felt the echo of he

  • A DEAL WITH THE ALPHA DEVIL   Enemies halted before us

    Logan's pov“Keep your head low,” I said, voice rough from the long run.Fiona didn’t reply, her steps cutting through the dirt road, cloak trailing behind her like a shadow. The old border stones of Whiteclaw rose ahead, cracked and half-buried under frost.“This isn’t home,” she murmured.“It was,” I answered.The air smelled wrong, smoke and fear and something sharp beneath it. From beyond the gates came voices, hushed and broken, the kind of murmuring that dies when you turn your head. Faces peered out from half-open doors, vanishing as fast as they appeared.Fiona slowed, jaw tight. “They’re afraid of you.”“They should be,” I said, and kept walking.The gates loomed taller than I remembered, patched with iron, our old crest slashed through and replaced by another, Rowan’s mark, sharp and proud.Fiona’s tone sharpened. “He really took everything.”I stared at the new sigil until my hands ached to tear it down. “Not everything.”A cluster of guards stepped from the shadows, armor

  • A DEAL WITH THE ALPHA DEVIL   Apologies that isn't working

    Fiona's pov“Don’t come closer.” My voice yelled against the stone.Logan didn’t stop. His boots ground over gravel, silver eyes catching the faint light of my fire.“You think I’ll let you push me off again?” he said. His tone wasn’t mocking. It was a promise.“You think this bond means you get to cage me like the others?” I spat.He tilted his head, jaw tight. “No cage holds you. Not even me. But you keep pretending you don’t want this.”I threw my flames higher, the cavern walls flashing red. Shadows clawed across his face. “I want answers. Not your touch.”He snorted, wolf bleeding through his laugh. “Liar.”“Logan....”“Don’t.” He closed the last step and seized my wrist. The heat of him met my fire, skin against flame. He didn’t flinch. He squeezed harder, forcing me to feel the roughness of his palm, the tremor in his grip. “I don’t care how much you burn me. I won’t let go.”“You should.”“Then tell me you don’t feel it.” His eyes locked on mine. Not pleading. Demanding. “Tell
