Kael's POV

The explosions were not random.

I realized it in the first three seconds. While wolves screamed and scattered in every direction, my mind catalogued the blast patterns. The locations. The timing.

Strategic. Calculated. Designed to maximize casualties among our allies.

The pillars closest to Magnus and his warriors went first. Then the section where Celeste had gathered her pack. Then Derrick's position.

Every explosion targeted our supporters. Left the Council's forces untouched.

    Kael's POVThe library door opened without warning.The Seeker stepped through. His silver eyes swept across our circle. Across our still connected hands. Across the ancient text Thorne held."You performed a vision quest." Not a question. An observation laced with something I could not identify. Concern? Fear? Guilt?"You lied to us." Sabine's voice was cold. Sharp as broken glass. "You told us the origin realm was unified. That all pure-bloods wanted our help. You never mentioned factions. Never mentioned opposition. Never mentioned wolves actively working to prevent us from crossing."The Seeker's expression shifted. Became weary. Ancient. Like the weight of centuries pressed down on him."I did not lie." He said carefully. "I omitted. There is a difference.""Not from where I stand." Evander rose. Protectiv

    Sabine's POVRiven's confession shattered me.Visions of separation. Of me calling for help while he could not reach me. Of barriers and distance and terror I could not imagine."How long have you carried this alone?" My voice broke. "How long have you watched us die in your mind while pretending everything was fine?""Since the binding." His voice was hollow. Empty. "Every night. Every time I close my eyes."Guilt crashed through me. I had been so focused on my own struggles that I missed his suffering. Missed the way exhaustion carved lines into his face. Missed the constant vigilance that never relaxed."We need to understand these visions." Evander's voice was firm. Decisive. "Need to determine if they are prophecy or anxiety. Real threat or fear manifestation.""How?" Kael asked. "How do we analyze visions

    Riven's POVKael's question hung in the air like an accusation."How do you really feel?"I felt nothing. Everything. Terror compressed so tightly it became numbness. That was how I felt."I am fine." The lie tasted familiar. Comfortable. Safe. "I am focused on protecting all of you. That is what matters.""No." Kael pushed harder. "That is not an answer. That is deflection. Your turn to be vulnerable."Vulnerable. The word felt foreign. Wrong. Vulnerability was a luxury I could not afford when Sabine's safety depended on my constant vigilance."Riven." Evander's voice was gentle. Concerned. "Kael shared his fears. I shared mine through my father's letter. Sabine has been honest about her struggles. What about you? What are you carrying?"Everything. The answer clawed at my throat. Every fear. Every vision. Every glimpse of futures that terrified me beyond words."I have no doubts about following Sabine." Truth was easier than lies. "My entire existence centers on protecting her. Prot

    Kael's POVI should not have said anything.The words hung in the air like a confession at trial. Like an admission of weakness, I spent years hiding behind jokes and smiles and pretending everything was always fine."I have been hiding similar doubts."Evander stared at me. Riven stared at me. Sabine stared at me. All three were looking at a wolf who was supposed to be an easy one. Happy one. One who never struggled with anything serious."What doubts?" Evander's voice was careful. Gentle. Like I was a fragile thing that might shatter. "What have you been hiding?"Everything. The answer clawed at my throat. Every fear. Every terror. Every moment of panic I masked with laughter because that was my role. That was what they needed from me."The origin realm." The confession tasted like failure. "I am terrified of the origin realm. Of what it means. What happens if we cross permanently?""We saved it." Sabine moved closer. "We stabilized reality. We prevented collapse. Why does that terr

    Evander's POVCyrus's words shattered everything.Nightbane burning. Garrett victorious. Alliance destroyed. Everything I built was reduced to ash while I saved a realm full of strangers."You are lying." My voice was hollow. "You are manipulating us. Creating panic.""Am I?" Cyrus's smile was poison. "You abandoned your pack. Left them leaderless. What did you think would happen?"The silver eyed pure blood signaled guards. Two massive wolves dragged Cyrus away. He went willingly. Smiling. Satisfied that even in defeat he had wounded us deeply.I could not breathe. Could not think past the horror. My pack was suffering while I played hero in another realm. My wolves were dying while I saved strangers."Evander." Sabine caught my arm. "Whatever happened, we face it together. We return. We fight. We reclaim what is ours.""I chose you over them." The confession tasted like betrayal. "Choose this realm over my own. Chose bond over hundreds of wolves who trusted me to protect them.""You

  • Betrayed By My Mate, Now Mated To Three    CHAPTER 125

    Evander's POVCyrus's words followed me like ghosts.Your father would be ashamed.I stood frozen in the origin realm's ceremony chamber. Reality crumbling around us. Sabine preparing to sacrifice herself. And all I could hear was that accusation echoing through my mind.Would my father be ashamed? Would he see my choice to follow Sabine as abandonment? As weakness? As betrayal of everything he taught me about duty and leadership?The questions paralyzed me when I needed clarity most."Evander." Sabine's voice pulled me back. "Whatever he said, ignore it. Cyrus manipulates through doubt. Through guilt. Do not let him win.""He murdered my father." The words tasted like ash. "Everything I built. Every choice I made. I did it to honor his memory. To continue his legacy. And now Cyrus tells me I am destroying it. That following you makes me unworthy of that legacy.""Your father loved you." Riven moved beside me. "Whatever else was true, that was absolute. He would want your happiness. Y
