Adrian's pov

The council chamber was stifling—thick with incense, thick with tension, thick with the sound of every last noble in the South muttering behind raised hands.

I took my place at the defense table, Kayla on my left, Ingrid just behind her, and Hector flanked by two guards at my right. Shackles still circled his wrists—Augustine’s petty flourish, I suspected—but the key was already in my pocket.

Councilman Augustine rose from the dais, crimson robe brushing the marble floor. His thin mouth curled into what he must have thought was a statesman’s smile.

“Let us begin,” he proclaimed, voice echoing beneath the vaulted ceiling. “In light of Alpha Adrian’s recent… indisposition, this chamber must decide whether Lord Hector remains in custody. Treason against the alpha is not a trifle.”

You’d know, I thought, watching his knuckles tighten on the podium.

He spun toward the benches. “I propose that Lord Hector remain locked up until we conclude a thorough investigation.

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    Wife to be

    Hector’s pov“When,” I said slowly, my voice dangerously low, “did I ever agree to produce an heir?”I really should have expected it. Elder Marcellus had never passed up a chance to undermine or try to humiliate me, but the sound of his laughter. The stupid low, rasping, poisonous sound still made my hands curl into fists.The hall was filled with it now, his mocking voice bouncing off the stone walls.“You truly thought we would allow you to waste your bloodline on a weak werewolf woman? That we would permit an heir tainted with weakness?” He leaned on his staff, his eyes glittering with malice. “We already agreed last year—no weak wolf child born of a weak wolf wife.”The others chuckled darkly, feeding off him like hyenas.I gritted my teeth, swallowing down the sharp rise of anger. I’d fought men, armies, even other Alphas, and none of them got under my skin the way these goddess forsaken rotten elders did.But then Marcellus tilted his head, and the next words cut deep.“And no

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    Hector's broken promise

    Hector’s povI barely had time to breathe when I stormed back to my packhouse.My fists were still clenched from the will reading, my jaw aching from how tightly I’d been grinding my teeth the whole ride back. Fury still burned through me, hot and sharp, though under it there was a heaviness I couldn’t quite ignore.I finally made it to my office but the moment I dropped into my chair, finally—finally—allowing myself to sink down, I caught Sevrin’s face. His eyes had gone distant, unfocused, the way they always did when he received a mind link.Ah Shit!I already knew this wasn’t going to be good.A second later, his expression shifted—no, it didn’t shift. The icy Lycan Sevrin didn’t do expressions. But his lips pressed together, his spine straightened, and when his gaze snapped back to me, it was like staring into a slab of ice.“The elders have summoned you,” he said flatly.Of course they had.I sighed, dragging a hand down my face. “What for?” I sighed.He didn’t answer at first.

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    To trust again

    Ivonne's povFor a while, Hector still didn’t move after Lincoln left. The door had clicked shut, leaving a silence that weighed heavy in the room. My chest rose and fell too quickly, as if the air itself was too thick to breathe. And then Hector moved.Closer. And closer, until he was Too close.I instinctively stepped back, my spine brushing against the edge of the nightstand. “What are you doing?” I asked, trying for a sharp tone but hearing the wobble in my own voice.“My goddamn duty,” he said simply, like that explained everything.I was about to ask again but His hand shot out with strong fingers catching my wrist before I could retreat further. He tugged me toward him, and I stumbled forward, right into the heat of his chest.My breath caught.He scanned me with those sharp eyes of his. They swept over my face, down my arms before lingering too long at my shoulders.His other hand lifted, firm and unyielding as he tilted my chin so he could look even closer. “Are you hurt? Any

    Ivonne’s povThe door slammed open so hard it banged against the wall, making me jolt. My heart skipped and my breath caught in my throat as I saw Hector filling the doorway, looking tall and furious with his eyes sharp as blades.He looked like a storm bottled up in human form, and when his gaze landed on me—no, on me frozen in Lincolns arms, his sneer curled up like it was carved from pure disdain.“Get your fucking hands off of her, Lincoln.” His voice was low, dangerous, like the warning growl of a predator about to pounce.Lincoln didn’t even flinch. His hand was still in my hair, his arm still around me from when I’d woken up sobbing, and his jaw tightened with defiance. “This isn’t your business, Hector. You don’t get to barge in and order me around. Besides, she’s not complaining.”What?! I gaped up at him and suddenly realized that I was actually still in his arms, but it was out of shock, and not the desire to stay.The air between I and him suddenly felt too thick and suff

    Ivonne’s POVMy eyes darted to Lincoln, To Alison then To the faces I barely recognized. Could it have been one of them?Would any of them try again?I shivered violently.“Easy,” Hector’s voice pulled me back. He crouched in front of me, his sharp eyes scanning me like a hawk. “Stay with me, Ivonne. You’re safe now.”I shook my head weakly. “I… can’t—” My voice cracked as another cough tore through me.“You can,” he snapped, but his voice softened at the edges. His hand hovered at my shoulder. “Stay awake. We don’t know if the smoke was poisoned so Don’t you dare close your eyes.”I tried to listen but my body had other plans. The smoke, the panic, the exhaustion—it was all too much and my vision blurred.. then the world tilted.“Ivonne!” His voice sounded far away now, even though he was right in front of me.My last thought before darkness claimed me was bitter, mocking.And once again… he’ll use this against me. Because I didn’t listen to him. Because I refused to move rooms like

    Ivonne’s POVThe moment the smoke started pouring into the room, I knew I was in serious trouble.Thick, acrid fumes clawed down my throat, making my chest seize. I coughed violently, stumbling back, my hand flying to cover my nose and mouth. But It did nothing.The smoke was already everywhere, swallowing the air, burning my lungs and stinging my eyes until tears streamed down my face.I could barely even see two feet in front of me. The whole world was gray, swirling and suffocating.“Goddess… no—” My voice cracked into a cough. I staggered, bumping into the table, knocking over the wine bottle Lincoln had left. It shattered against the floor, mingling with the acrid haze.I felt blind. Absolutely blind. My hands stretched in front of me, grasping at nothing, trying to feel my way toward the door but My heart pounded so hard it hurt.I was beginning to think that their intention was to choke me to death but then suddenly— Strong hands clamped around my arm and yanked me harshly.I s
