ASHER

The private meeting room was smaller than the council chamber. No windows. One door. A single table with four chairs.

This was where the real decisions were made. Not in the grand chamber with its ten seats and formal debates. Here. In the dark. With the three men who had been building the future of this kingdom long before the rest of the council knew what was coming.

Lord Kael sat across from me. To his left was Lord Harlen. To his right was General Maddox the head of the kingdom's mili

    MAYAI felt it the moment the bond went silent.Not broken. Not severed like it had been with Damien. This was different. Muffled. Suppressed. Like someone had thrown a blanket over the connection and was slowly suffocating it.Wolfsbane.My hands tightened on my blade. Around me the fighting continued. Rogues scaling the southern wall. My unit holding them back. Blood and screams and the chaos of war.But all I could focus on was the bond. Trying to push through. Trying to reach Asher. Trying to feel him.Nothing. Just fading warmth. Like watching a candle die."Your Majesty."I turned. A young soldier. Palace guard. Maybe seventeen. His face was white. Blood running from a cut above his eye. He was breathing hard. Had run from somewhere."What?""The palace. Lord Kael. He ha

    ASHERI knew something was wrong the moment I entered the palace.Too quiet. The usual bustle of staff and guards replaced by an oppressive silence that made my wolf snarl. I had left the eastern wall in Ethan's hands to check on Maya. To make sure she was still breathing after the chaos of the last hour.Through the bond I felt her. Alive. Exhausted. Fighting somewhere in the southern quarter. But alive.Then the bond flickered. Not severed. Suppressed. Like something was blocking the connection.Wolfsbane.I reached for my blade. Too late.They came from both sides. Ten men. Not palace guards. Mercenaries wearing neutral colors. Kael's colors."Seize him" a voice commanded from the shadows. Kael's voice. Calm. Controlled. Like he was ordering dinner instead of treason.The mercenaries moved with

    DAMIENI woke to darkness and pain.Not dead. Should have been dead. Gabriel's blade had found something vital. I felt it. The cold spreading from the wound. The weakness in my limbs. The way my heartbeat stuttered.But my wolf would not let me go. Stubborn bastard. Even betrayed. Even broken. Still fighting to keep this pathetic body alive."Alpha. Stay still. We are getting you out."Hands under my arms. Dragging me. Rough. Urgent. Voices I recognized. My personal guard. The few who stayed loyal when Gabriel turned."Leave me" I tried to say. It came out as a wheeze. Blood in my mouth. Copper taste."Not happening Alpha. We did not follow you this far to let you die in the dirt."They pulled me through mud and bodies. Away from the battlefield. Away from the smoke and screams. Into the treeline wher

    DAMIENGabriel stood five feet away with my blood on his blade.Not much blood. A shallow cut across my ribs. He could have gone deeper. Could have finished it. But he wanted me conscious. Wanted me to understand."You were always the muscle" he said. Voice calm. Clinical. Like he was explaining basic strategy to a slow student. "Never the brain. Father knew it. I knew it. Everyone knew it except you."Around us the battlefield churned. My army collapsing. Loyalists fighting Gabriel's faction. Lycans pressing from the walls. Chaos I no longer controlled."How long?" I asked. My voice was steady despite the rage building in my chest. "How long have you been planning this?""Since you told me about Maya. Since you became obsessed. Since I realized your emotions made you controllable." He circled me. Predator assessing wounded prey. "Every suggestion I made.

    GABRIELThe moment had come.I stood on the ridge overlooking the battlefield. Chaos below. Damien's forces pressed against the Lycan walls. Blood and smoke and the sounds of thousands dying for a cause only one man truly believed in.My brother. Fighting for a woman who would never love him back. Leading an army into a meat grinder because he could not accept that some things could not be taken by force.Pathetic. Predictable. Perfect.I raised my hand. The signal my loyalists had been waiting for.On the left flank three hundred fighters stopped advancing. Turned. Drew weapons. And attacked the command unit from behind.Damien's officers never saw it coming. They were focused on the wall. On the Lycans. On coordinating the assault.They did not notice their own men turning until steel found their backs.

    DAMIENI saw her through the smoke and chaos.Fighting on the southern wall. Blade flashing. Moving with a precision I had never seen in her before. She dropped a rogue fighter with a strike so clean it could have come from a trained warrior.I stopped. Mid-swing. My opponent forgotten. Every cell in my body oriented toward her like she was magnetic north and I was the needle that would always point her direction.She was covered in blood. Dirt smeared across her face. Her armor was dented. Her hair had come loose from its braid. She looked like she had been fighting for hours.She looked magnificent.This was not the girl who used to flinch at raised voices. Not the broken thing I kept on my bedroom floor. Not the fragile creature who needed me to protect her from the world.This was a warrior. A queen. Someone who had learned to protect herself.Someone I barely recognized.My chest ached. Pride and rage and something that felt dangerously close to grief tangled together until I cou

    MAYAThe messenger arrived during my morning session with Rhea.I was mid-strike when I heard the commotion at the edge of the training grounds. Raised voices. The scuffle of boots on packed dirt. A sharp commanding bark from one of the Lycan guards stationed at the perimeter.I lowered my fists. R

    DAMIENBryce delivered the report at sunset.He stood in the doorway of my study with the paper in his hand and a look on his face that told me everything before he opened his mouth."Just say it" I said.

    MAYAWe walked back to the palace in silence.Not the comfortable silence we had shared on balconies and in corridors. This was different. This was the silence of two people who had just been turned inside out and were still trying to fig
