LOGINHis breath is hot against my ear, his voice a low, seductive murmur. “Even if you carried Medusa’s curse, I’d still want to stare into your eyes so my stone body could gaze into perfection for eternity.” His words send a shiver down my spine, igniting a fire I never knew existed.Isabella, a Luna cast aside by her pack for her inability to conceive, finally discovers she’s pregnant—only to catch her mate in bed with someone else.

View MoreEpilogue: Five Years LaterThe morning mist clung to the ancient oaks of Moon Valley, but it didn't stay still for long. A streak of silver and gold blurred through the tall grass, moving with a speed that shouldn't have been possible for a child.I stood on the balcony of the estate, my arms wrapped around Bella’s waist as we watched the chaos below."Liam! Stay within the sensory border!" I called out, my voice carrying that effortless Alpha resonance.The streak stopped instantly. Standing in the middle of the meadow was a five-year-old boy with a messy mop of dark hair. He turned around, his mismatched eyes—one icy blue, one glowing amber—shining with pure mischief."But the butterflies are fast today, Papa!" Liam shouted back, his voice already carrying a hint of the power that would one day lead nations.Bella leaned her head against my shoulder, a soft sigh of contentment escaping her. "He’s getting stronger, Asher. Yesterday, he accidentally shifted his hand just to reach a c
Asher’s POVThe stone walls of the estate felt solid for the first time in years. It had been over a month since I’d dragged Zachary’s broken body through these halls. The Council had grumbled, their faces souring when they learned of his human alliances and the refugees he’d sold out, but they’d had no choice. My credibility was written in the blood I’d spilled to protect Moon Valley. They still whispered about my hybrid nature in the dark corners of the pack house—fear masked as judgment—but I didn't give a damn. No one dared step within ten feet of me.Most importantly, Bella was home."Careful, it's hot," Bella murmured, sliding a ceramic mug into my hands.The steam from the coffee curled between us, but my focus was entirely on her. I didn't take a sip; I reached out, hooking a finger in her belt loop and pulling her into the space between my knees. She let out a soft, melodic chuckle that did more to settle my beast than any sedative could. I set the mug on the side table, opti
Asher’s povThe atmosphere in the cave shifted from cold to suffocating. Zachary stood over the kneeling wolves, his eyes narrowing as they landed on the man he knew only as a silent, invisible servant.“What is this?” Zachary’s voice was sharp with confusion. “Why the hell is my butler in here? Did you follow me, you pathetic dog?”I didn’t answer. Instead, I stood up slowly. As I did, the shimmering veil of the glamour—the magic that had hidden my true face for months—began to crack. It started at my jawline, a golden light fracturing the skin like glass, until the image of the stoic, aged butler dissolved into the sharp, lethal features of a King.Zachary stumbled back, his face draining of all color. His breath hitched in a wheeze of pure, unadulterated terror.“Asher?” he whispered, his voice trembling. “No... no, that’s impossible. You’re dead. I saw the ruins. I saw the blood! How are you alive?!”“I am the Alpha of Alphas, Zachary,” I said, my voice vibrating with a dual-tone
Asher’s POV “This looks… weird,” Zachary mutters the moment I drop the plate in front of him. He stares down at the food like it personally offended him. I can’t even blame him—I barely know what I’m doing. I’ve never cooked before today; the kitchen still smells like burnt something and desperation.He lifts his gaze, studying me with a faint smile tugging at his lips. “I think you’re getting really old.”I scoff under my breath and reach for the plate. “I’ll make something else.”“Stop.” His hand comes down over mine, firm but not harsh. That faint smile grows, softens. “You know what? It’s been forever since you cooked for me. I’ll eat it with love.”He scoops a spoonful and shoves it into his mouth without hesitation. For a second he goes completely still, and I brace myself for him to spit it out. Instead, his eyebrows rise in surprise.“Hm. Surprisingly… this tastes good,” he says as if he’s trying to convince himself. “I knew you hadn’t lost your touch.”More like his taste bu
