Se connecterElise POVI was seven years old the first time I learned fear could smell like blood back then, the palace still felt warm not cold like it did now.Back then Elliot still laughed all the time.“Catch me if you can!”I snarled loudly before sprinting after him through the palace gardens while snow crunched beneath our boots.“You cheated!”“I’m faster than you!”“You’re literally older by three minutes!”“That still counts!”I threw snow at the back of his head and Elliot yelped dramatically before slipping sideways into the frozen bushes.I burst into laughter instantly.“You look stupid!”“You’re evil!”“You started it!”He tackled me into the snow immediately and we rolled down the small hill screaming and laughing while winter wind whipped around us violently.For one tiny moment everything felt normal. We were just children, not heirs or future generals Just twins.“Elliot, Elise.”Our laughter stopped instantly, it was mother.She stood near the garden entrance wrapped in a dar
Knox POVThe evacuation started before sunrise. Cold grey light stretched across the mountains while hundreds of warriors, families, children, and supply wagons filled the roads leading from my kingdom toward Elise’s territory.Everything moved in an organized form we couldn’t risk anything going wrong. The entire pack was moving and every second I felt the pressure crushing heavier against my chest.Because if Bastian attacked now thousands of people would die.I stood near the front lines beside Conrad and Caleb while soldiers organized the final groups.Snow drifted softly through the freezing air.Conrad checked another map.“The northern route is safer.”Caleb frowned beside him.“Too narrow for this many people.”“We split the groups then.”“We don’t have enough warriors for that.”I rubbed a hand over my face tiredly.“We keep everyone together.”Conrad looked toward me immediately.“That makes us move slower.”“It also makes us harder to isolate.”He hated that I was right an
Marie’s pov..I don’t know what I was doing but I knew my feet led me to Sasha’s room. Call me stupid but one day I could wake up dead and i didnt want to die still being in denial.My heart hammered against my ribs as I lay back on the silk sheets, completely naked, wrists bound loosely above my head with a soft black scarf. Sasha stood at the foot of the bed, her dark eyes devouring every inch of me. She was still half dressed with her black lace bra hugging her full breasts and matching panties riding low on her hips.“Why are you here rabbit” she asked “Are you going to deny me Sasha” I purred She smiled and put on a black strap on harness already buckled around her waist. The thick, realistic dildo jutted out obscenely, veined and glistening with the lube she’d just applied.“Marie,” she purred, her voice low and commanding, “look at you, so fucking wet already and I’ve barely touched you.”I shivered at her words, my thighs pressing together instinctively. From my perspective
Mila POVI hated training, not the normal kind or the “run around until your legs fall off” kind Sasha loved.Not even the brutal combat training Conrad enjoyed way too much.No.I hated Marcus training.Because Alpha Marcus trained like he wanted to kill me.“Again.”I glared at him from across the snowy training arena.“You’ve said that thirty times already .” I whined“And you’ve failed thirty times.”“That sounds rude.”“That’s because it is.”I scowled.The mountain wind whipped around the high training grounds while silver banners snapped violently overhead, it had only been two hours.TWO HOURS.And I already wanted to throw myself off the mountain. Marcus stood opposite me in all black, and he was calm and annoyingly composed while I looked like I had survived a natural disaster.Sweat clung to my forehead despite the freezing weather while my lungs burned from exhaustion.The mark on my arm pulsed beneath my skin.Marcus crossed his arms.“Focus.”“I am focused.”“You’re di
Mila POVElise’s kingdom looked like something pulled out of a fantasy story. Even after hours of arriving there, I still couldn’t stop staring.Massive mountains surrounded the territory like protective walls built by the Moon Goddess herself, their snowy peaks piercing through the clouds while silver rivers curved around the kingdom below.Everything here felt powerful, Rina felt comfortable here and I liked it.Cold air brushed against my skin as I stood near one of the palace balconies, wrapped in a black cloak Knox had practically forced onto me earlier.“You’re staring into air again.”I smiled before even turning around i knew it was Knox.“I can’t help it.”He walked toward me slowly, his hands tucked into the pockets of his black coat while pale winter light caught against his hair.The moment he reached me, his arms wrapped around my waist naturally from behind and he was warm around me.“Elise’s kingdom is impressing you that much?” he murmured near my ear.“It’s beautiful
General Eric’s POVFor the first time in years i woke up to see the light not the pitch black darkness.The realization hit me before my eyes even fully opened i could see sunlight again.Golden and soft through the curtains.I stared at the ceiling above me for a long moment, almost afraid to blink because every time before this, there had only ever been blackness.But now I could see.I slowly sat up on the bed, breathing unevenly while morning light stretched across the room.The colors almost overwhelmed me.The world was beautiful and my chest tightened painfully. I never realized how much I missed something I barely remembered.A knock sounded against the door.“You awake, blind boy?”It was Elise.A smile pulled at my mouth immediately.“Technically that insult no longer works.”The door opened before she answered and then for the first time i truly saw her not through imagination.I actually saw her and Moon Goddess nothing could have prepared me. She stood against the doorwa
Mila's POV…By the time I got to my room, my legs felt like they were made of sand.The moment the door shut behind me, I leaned against it, closing my eyes.Everything from today crashed into me all at once.Everything was stressful I couldn't even think properly anymore.I ratted out Kreda to Bas
Mila's pov…I stood there for a moment longer after Knox spoke, the tension between us was still thick enough to choke on.“The investigation has already started,” he finally said, his voice calmer now. “No one leaves the premises without being questioned.”I didn’t respond immediately i just… loo
Knox's POV….The plane landed smoothly, though my stomach had twisted from hours of anticipation. My hands clenched the edge of my seat as Caleb and Conrad guided me through the protocol for the meeting. Every detail mattered every gesture, every word was very important I couldn’t afford to make
Mila's POV…By the time I got back to the pack house, my legs felt like they didn’t belong to me.Everything felt… heavy.My chest, my thoughts.Everything.Like I had just signed something I could never take back.Rina was quiet again.And that scared me more than anything.Because normally, she w
