Three days before I was supposed to begin my infiltration, Kieran arrived at the settlement.

I knew he was coming before anyone announced it—the mate bond practically sang with his proximity, and the pendant burned against my skin with an intensity that made me gasp.

He didn't come alone.

Marcus was with him, and they both looked furious.

"We need to talk," Kieran said when he found me in the training area.

"Now."

I dismissed the warriors I'd been sparring with and followed Kieran to a private clearing at the edge of the settlement.

Marcus stayed behind, giving us space, but I could feel his concern through the bond he shared with his Alpha.

"You knew," Kieran said the moment we were alone.

"You've known about my heritage all along, haven't you?"

I felt my stomach drop.

"What are you talking about?"

"Don't lie to me, Laila."

His silver eyes were blazing with hurt and anger.

"I can feel it through the mate bond—you're hiding something about me. Something important."

  • BLOOD MOON BETRAYAL: A FORBIDDEN WEREWOLF ROMANCE.   CHAPTER SIXTY FIVE: THE FINAL TRUTH REVEALED

    We stayed at the battlefield that night, too exhausted to make the journey back to Shadow Ridge. Wolves from various packs set up camp, tended fires, and shared food while processing everything that had happened.I was helping Maya organize sleeping arrangements when Dominic approached with an urgent expression."Laila, there's someone here who says she has information about Damien. Information you need to hear before he's found.""Who?""One of the Council operatives we captured. A woman named Claire. She's asking to speak with you specifically."I followed Dominic to where the prisoners were being held under guard. Claire was young—maybe mid-twenties—with hollow eyes that spoke of deep regret."You wanted to talk to me?" I asked."I need to tell you the truth," Claire said. "About Damien Grey and what he's really been doing. Because if you don't know, you can't stop him.""What do you mean?"Claire took a deep breath. "Damien wasn't just working for the Council.

  • BLOOD MOON BETRAYAL: A FORBIDDEN WEREWOLF ROMANCE.   CHAPTER SIXTY FOUR: SERAPHINA'S TRUTH

    The cleanup after the battle took hours. The wounded needed healing, the prisoners needed securing, and the dead needed honoring—both ours and theirs.I spent much of that time using my healing abilities on our injured fighters. Each healing took energy, but I paced myself this time, remembering Maya's warnings about burning out.It was late afternoon when Marcus approached me with a grim expression."Laila, we found something in Theodore's belongings. Something you need to see."He led me to where they'd gathered the Council leaders' personal effects. Among Theodore's things was an old leather journal, similar to Seraphina's diary but more worn, more sinister."It's his record of kills," Marcus explained. "Every person he betrayed to the Council, every family he helped eliminate. But there's an entry about Seraphina that you need to read."I took the journal with trembling hands and opened to the page Marcus indicated. Theodore's handwriting was neat, clinical, recording murders

    The clearing exploded into chaos.Council operatives shifted into their wolf forms and charged, but they were immediately met by our forces. Kieran led the charge, his massive black wolf tearing through enemies with brutal efficiency.I dove behind a fallen log as weapons fire erupted around me. Theodore and the five Council leaders had retreated to the center of their defensive circle, protected by their most skilled fighters."Laila!" Maya's voice called out. She appeared beside me in wolf form, then shifted back to human. "We need to separate the Council leaders from their operatives. As long as they're together, they're too well protected.""I have an idea," I said. "But I need to get close to Theodore.""That's suicide—""Trust me," I interrupted.I stood up and let my power flare, silver light exploding outward from me like a beacon. Every wolf in the clearing turned to look as I began walking toward the center of the fighting, my magic creating a shield around me that def

  • BLOOD MOON BETRAYAL: A FORBIDDEN WEREWOLF ROMANCE.   CHAPTER SIXTY TWO: UNCOVERED DECEPTION

    That night, I barely slept. Every hour felt like an eternity as I waited for dawn, knowing that everything I'd worked for would come down to the next few hours.The mate bond hummed with constant activity—Kieran was moving, organizing, preparing. I could feel his determination mixed with fear, his rage at what the Council had asked me to do, his desperate need to reach me before something went wrong.Around midnight, I heard footsteps approaching my cell. Not the regular guards—these were quieter, more purposeful.The door opened to reveal Marcus."How—" I started to ask."Theodore left to make preparations for tomorrow," Marcus said quietly, slipping inside and closing the door. "I convinced the guards I was here on official pack business. We don't have much time.""Kieran sent you.""He wanted to come himself, but we needed someone who could move through Theodore's territory without raising suspicion. As a visiting Beta, I have that access." He pulled out a small bag. "Suppli
