Born to shine   201. Lifeline
đŚ Melanie POVI slammed the bond shut.I couldnât take another feeling, another thought, another glimpse of something Aron had kept buried beneath that impossible calm.Not now.I didnât know what to say, so I turned back toward the road and started walking.Aron didnât ask a thing.Didnât push.Simply fell into step beside me and walked home in silence.By the time we reached the house, I had convinced myself that work would help.It usually did.The documents I hadnât finished reviewing about the distribution of medicines were still waiting for me on the table.I sat down, opened the first one, and began reading.But by the time I reached the end of the first page, I hadnât absorbed a single sentence.My thoughts kept circling back.Again.And again.To everything I had felt through Aron.To everything I had refused to see before.Since the day the court had found him not guilty, Aron had changed the way he treated me.And I...I hadnât.Not at all.The shared dinners hadnât matter
Born to shine   200. For Me
đŚ Melanie POVAron finished presenting the plan for protecting the civilians in case part of the enemy forces attempted some kind of diversion.No one had anything else to add.No objections.No corrections.Perfect.I hated how easily the word came to mind nowadays.âDismissed.âFenrir ended the meeting with his usual lack of ceremony.Chairs scraped against the floor.Conversation rose in small clusters as people began filing out of the room.I stayed in my place, waiting for Arria.We hadnât had a chance to talk properly since they had awakened her wolf, and everything I knew had come secondhand from others.Aron didnât move either.I turned my head and gave him a critical look.I wanted some time alone with Arria.Alone being the important part.Ever since Aron had returned from his so-called sparring session with Fenrir, he had been attached to me like a shadow.If I went to the school, he walked me there, and when I came out through the gates later, he was already waiting for m
Born to shine   199. Battle Plan
đ Arria POVSeven days.That was all we had left until the full moon.Until the elven invasion.Until the war that would decide the fate of our realm.âWhy donât we attack the palace before the full moon?â one of the Alphas around the table asked.âIt would be easier to win without the elves supporting Vaerion and the King, wouldnât it?â another chimed in.âIt makes sense,â several more agreed.âDivide the enemy and defeat one group after another.âA wave of small, approving nods moved around the table.âA prophecy was made a little over a month ago,â I told them. âIt stated that on the full moon, the world shall burn.âUneasiness moved through the room.Several expressions tightened.Then one of the Alphas frowned.âA prophecy? Really? By whom? Werewolves donât have prophets.âI turned my head toward him.âI see you already know the answer. It was made by an elf,â I pointed out. âSo what exactly are you implying?âHe shifted uncomfortably beneath my scrutinizing gaze.âItâs just tha

đ Arria POVFenrir took a sharp turn halfway down the corridor and pushed open the door to his office instead of carrying me to our bedroom.'Absolutely not,' Fiona said, thoroughly offended.Before I could decide whether I was irritated too or simply amused by her outrage, he set me down on the edge of his desk and stepped away.Then he crossed to one of the cabinets, opened it, crouched in front of a lower drawer, and began pulling things out with maddening calm.âWhat are you doing?â I asked, still a little breathless from the way he had just carried me here.Fenrir didnât answer immediately.'He kissed us half senseless, carried us off like prey, and then brought us to the office?'I laughed despite myself.'If he gives you work, I am going toâ'What?Scream through the mindlink?Manifest?Go on. Tell me.'You! You...'I shook my head indulgently.'You are not supposed to be on their side.'It is all our side.You are just dragging out the inevitable.And just so you know, your s

đ Arria POVI ducked beneath Fenrirâs fist and immediately turned into another attack.He wasnât there anymore.Of course.My own punch cut through empty air, and I barely managed to twist away before his hand came toward my shoulder from the side.'This is ridiculous,' Fiona complained.I bit back a smile.I warned you.I threw another sequence.Fenrir blocked the first strike, stepped effortlessly out of range of the second, and made me miss the third altogether.Again.Not once had I managed to touch him.Not properly.And Fiona was getting increasingly furious about it.Not that the morning had started much better for her.After Fenrir had kissed me until I was breathless, thoroughly distracted, and all needy, he had simply stopped.Just like that."If Fiona doesn't want to speak with me, then we'd better spar instead of... this," Alaric had stated while pulling me out of bed and toward the door.Apparently, having a wolf now meant I had officially lost every excuse not to join h

đ Fenrir POVAre you really going to sulk instead of doing something about the situation? I asked Alaric.'I am not sulking.'Sure.A low growl rumbled through him.The curse was still burning inside us, waiting for the slightest opportunity to overpower us.The way Fiona had unceremoniously thrown Alaric out of Arriaâs mind would have unleashed it on the spot if Arria hadnât fainted.The moment her body swayed, Alaric's focus had snapped back to her.Away from rage.And now that Arria had finally woken up and explained Fionaâs reasoning to us, Alaric seemed defeated in a way I had never thought possible.He was the unstoppable force everyone considered unbeatable.I had always thought of him the same way.Until now.We donât deserve her if youâre planning to give up on her so easily, I told him.'Giving up?' His voice sharpened. 'Fionaâs assumption is most likely correct. I am going to kill the mate I marked willingly simply because she is equal to meâor stronger than meâin rank.'Y
Born to shine   6. Pain
Chapter 6 The whip lay coiled on the stone bench beside Aron. For a moment, no one moved. The evening air felt colder than it should have been. The courtyard walls trapped the silence, pressing it down over all of us. I wanted to scream. To tell them how unfair it all was. How none of it had ev
Born to shine   5. Accusations
5 days later When I arrived, the yard was empty. The laughter that usually greeted me was gone. Inside, the children were sitting in rows behind desks while an instructor stood in front of the room. âExtra lessons,â one of the caretakers explained when she noticed me standing by the door. âThe

In the days that followed, changes began to appear everywhere. Patrols along the borders doubled. Training sessions started earlier and ended later. Warriors who had once joked with one another in the yard now moved with a sharper focus. At first the pack welcomed it. Strength always brings comfo
Born to shine   3. Duty Calls
The pack was left in the hands of the Beta family. Again. And I was left to think about what to do from now on. There was a huge possibility that I would never be truly a werewolf. In fact, according to our history 18th was the last threshold. My parents' obsession with believing I had a wolf w
