Isobel:

I walked out before my composure shattered completely.

The corridor felt too narrow, the walls pressing in as fury burned through my veins. My son had drawn a line, one he had never dared to draw before. Not with the Council. Not with the pack. Not even with those who were superior to him… not to his father who he stood against.

With me.

The one person who stood by his side when others turned against him.

The one person who taught him how to fight, to hold his stance, to lead.

I had raised him to rule. To understand sacrifice. To know that love was a weakness when wielded without discipline.

And now he was choosing her.

A rogue.

A girl who had slipped into his orbit and wrapped herself around the one part of him I had spent a lifetime controlling.

The one part that I was sure that he never deviated from… reminding him of the danger that it could oppose if he chose just one.

This was not rebellion.

This was war.

And worse, it was a war I never wanted to fight.

But one I now had

    Marcel:“Luna, the Alpha specifically said…”“Get out of my sight and I am going to see my son.” My mother snapped at the men by the door. Lia looked at me, her eyes meeting mine as she squeezed my hand in assurance.“I’m right here.” She whispered, and I nodded, knowing what was to come. But I also knew that there was a line that I was going to draw. And it was one that Lia didn’t know about yet.The door burst open before I could say a word.“Marcel.”My mother’s voice, tight, urgent, afraid. Her eyes scanned me first, then the room, then the shattered window, the cold air still bleeding inside.“How are you feeling?” she demanded. “What happened? Are you hurt? The room is freezing, how are you sitting in this cold weather?”I laughed.It was sharp. Bitter. Nothing about it was amused.“I almost killed a man,” I said coldly, getting up from the bed and taking a step toward her. “His wife. His children. I didn’t even blink, not once. The man was going to die and he knew that his fami

    Marcel:I woke to a heavy feeling in my chest.But the warmth that surrounded me was one that I couldn’t ignore. And I knew that it wasn’t the weather. It was snowing out, and the broken window had its way of showing it.It wasn’t the kind born of heat or desire, but something steadier. Anchoring.My head rested in Lia’s lap, my hand still curled around hers like I’d been afraid she would disappear if I let go. She was asleep against the headboard, chin tilted slightly down, hair falling loose around her face. Her breathing was slow. Even.Vladimir was out cold on the couch, one arm thrown over his eyes like the night had finally claimed its price from him too.I shifted.The movement sent a spike of pain through my temple, memories crashing back in all at once, rage, glass shattering, the man’s throat in my hand, the children screaming, his wife hiding them behind her, shielding them with her body. The father telling her to run, knowing well that it was a losing battle, and yet, stil

    Lia:He didn’t speak when we got back to his room.“Here you go.” Vladimir said, helping Marcel walk toward his bed.Marcel sat on the edge of the bed at first, shoulders tense, breathing heavy, the monster still too close to the surface. He stared into space as if processing that this was his room, his territory, and that he was not hurting anyone now.“Do you want me to get you a glass of water?” I asked, my voice careful as I spoke. He shook his head, not bothering to look at me. It was as if looking at me was painful for him right now.“He needs to lay down. He needs to allow himself to relax.” Vladimir said, and I nodded, cupping Marcel’s cheeks, making him look me in the eye, reminding him that he was safe… that I was by his side.He looked me in the eye, getting lost in my gaze for a second…Then, slowly, like his body finally remembered exhaustion, he lay back, allowing himself to relax.I pulled the blanket over him.The window was shattered, glass scattered across the floor,

    Marcel:Fury rode me like a second skin.It burned hot and relentless as I stormed down the corridor toward my quarters, every step heavy with the promise of violence. Servants shrank back. Guards stiffened and looked away. They all felt it, the thing in me that the Council had named, sharpened, and unleashed when rogues needed to disappear… when I knew that they needed to die.“Alpha... you told me to wait for you” Theia’s voice reached me just as I entered my quarters. “Should I bring Lia?”The growl that tore out of my chest wasn’t a warning.It was a threat.And I knew that she read through it easily… much like everyone else.“No.”She didn’t hesitate. She bowed her head and vanished down the corridor.Good.Tonight, Lia would only get hurt.And she was the last person that I would have wanted to harm.I shoved the door open, rage slamming against my ribs like it wanted out. My vision burned gold, the glow bleeding into something darker, something older. This was why I was who I w

    Lia:I waited.The consort hall was louder than usual, voices curling around me like smoke, sharp with amusement and hunger. The girls circled close enough to watch, far enough to pretend they weren’t.“So,” one of them said lightly, eyes flicking to my neck, then back to my face. “Every night, was it?”Another laughed. “Bold words to say in front of Elara. I almost admired it.”“They say that the gathering is already done. You should have been called by now, but you know… the Alpha must be enjoying his chosen Luna rather than dealing with a consort.” Another said, looking at me as if I was some kind of game that they found themselves enjoying.I didn’t rise to it. I stood straight, calm on the surface even as my pulse ticked louder with every passing minute. Even as doubt crept through me in a way that I knew should be deemed and considered unhealthy.“He’ll call,” I said simply. “Once he is done with whatever duties he has to take care of as Alpha.”The certainty in my voice made a
