šŸ”„ Aron POV

I can’t let this continue.

No matter the orders.

She’s become unstable. Dangerous—for everyone.

I need her out.

The road to the capital stretched long and quiet beneath the car.

I didn’t rush.

There was no need.

Everything that mattered had already been set in motion.

The Alphas gathering at the palace gave me the perfect opportunity to execute my plan.

    šŸ•·ļø Vaerion POV I did not need screams right now. Not here, at least. And it would be suspicious to take her to my wing. ā€œSo you questioned her for me?ā€ I asked him before he reached the handle. ā€œOf course, my lord.ā€ ā€œShow me.ā€ He turned around and came back. Not eager. Not reluctant either. He knew the pain that would follow. He did not hesitate. I had somehow started tolerating that pet. He had strength, ruthlessness, and decisiveness. More than most of the wolves I had met. At times, more than the king himself. And he knew his place perfectly well. Marking that trash was his first real mistake. Arria Crestwood, I reminded myself. If she was the heir, as I now suspected, then I had misjudged one thing at the time. I had been searching for someone strong. Someone who had probably displayed power already. Not a weakling. I placed two fingers against his temple. I could do it from a short distance once my plant was well rooted. But I would have to sift through

    šŸƒ Arria POVI had finished my morning training session an hour ago, and now,freshand physically spent, I was going through the pile of documents I had postponed for the last two days.The housing arrangements were moving swiftly, and all families in the gathering already had their own place. So now I was prioritizing which building should come next—a new school, a packhouse, three more one-family houses, or an actual healing house instead of home visits.A loud knock startled me.

  • Born to shineĀ Ā Ā 94. The EchoĀ 

    🌘 Fenrir POV Arria was shocked. She needed time to think it through, so I pulled away from her and started moving around the kitchen, preparing the table and reheating the food. It gave my hands something to do. ā€œThis can’t be part of the curse,ā€ Arria said eventually. ā€œAlaric had a mate back then, right?ā€ ā€œYes,ā€ I confirmed. ā€œA chosen mate.ā€ ā€œChosen or not, it doesn’t matter if he wasn’t forced to take her. And the king’s Beta being forced is out of the question.ā€ ā€œYou are right. He wasn’t.ā€ I set a plate on the table. ā€œThey had been friends from a young age. Neither he nor she had found their fated mate by twenty-five, so they had decided to try courting for a while. Eight months later, they had been officially mated.ā€ā€œThat doesn’t sound bad,ā€ she said slowly.Uncertain.ā€œNo. It had been good. She had always been respectful, understanding, and soft around him, and the Beta had reciprocated her feelings and actions.ā€I took a moment.ā€œIn time, they had grown affectionate wit
