The Iron Fang ridges cut into the bleeding twilight sky like a row of shattered, rotting teeth.

​We move as ghosts. The dense pine forest gradually gives way to a barren, rocky wasteland of grey shale and rusted, abandoned mining equipment. The air up here is bitterly cold, carrying the sharp, metallic tang of unmined silver and the suffocating, unnatural stench of dark magic. Nightshade. Boiling blood. And the sickly-sweet rot of burning sprite essence.

  • Dagger of the Blood Moon   Chapter 68

    Dax POV​The packhouse study is a battlefield of splintered wood and shattered glass by the time I shove through the door.​The metallic tang of blood—Kai's, mine, the rogues'—is still thick in my nostrils. It mingles with the acrid bite of wolfsbane smoke from the arrows we lost in the chaos of the mine. Rune's grey fur bristles constantly in my chest. His snarls are a relentless echo of the pack link's fractured, grieving howl. Every single mental thread is screaming… Failure. Loss. Hunt. We dragged ourselves back to Blood Moon under the mocking sliver of the dying moon. The blood moon looms closer, its crimson hunger already seeping into our bones like poison.​We lost so many. Good warriors torn apart by silver claws and unseen witch snares, their scents fading into ghosts within the link. Reed had walked beside me the entire trek back, his usually sharp steel scent completely soured by grief. His hands were stained dark with blood from dragging Keira's body out of the cavern. Her

    Liora POV​The world dissolves into a blur of violet agony and silver thorns.​The cursed vines haul me brutally across the cavern floor. The jagged stone scrapes my back like a lover's betrayal. The air is choked with the cauldron's vile fumes, burning my lungs and twisting Aria's furious snarls into pained whimpers.​Pain blooms everywhere. My ankles are rubbed raw from the cursed bindings. My wrists are chafed bloody against the heavy silver chains that hum with fae malice, actively sapping my strength just like the suppression serum once did.​But the physical pain is nothing compared to the absolute agony in my soul.​The mate bond violently snaps.​Kai's earth-shattering roar fades into a hollow, gaping ache in my chest. Atlas's comforting rumble becomes a ghost I claw for in the pitch black.​Kai—​The thought fractures as Cassian's face looms over me. His eyes are fever-bright, entirely consumed by toxic violet magic. The stolen talisman’s glow casts his scars in demonic relie

    Kai POV​The mountain tears itself apart.​A deafening, concussive boom shatters the suffocating silence of the mine. The solid stone ceiling directly above us violently detonates, raining a lethal hail of jagged shale and flaming debris down onto the rusted iron grating.​My instincts are faster than conscious thought.​I grab Liora by the waist, hauling her flush against my chest and throwing my entire body over hers to shield her from the blast. The rusted grating beneath our boot’s groans in absolute agony. The structural supports snap like dry twigs under the explosive force, and the floor simply vanishes beneath us.​We plummet into the cavern.​The world becomes a terrifying blur of rushing air, choking stone dust, and the blinding violet light of the witches' cauldron rushing up to meet us. We hit the cavern floor in a violent tangle of limbs and shattered iron. I take the brunt of the impact, my shoulder absorbing the brutal shock of the stone.​"Liora!" I gasp, rolling to my

    Liora POVThe Iron Fang ridges cut into the bleeding twilight sky like a row of shattered, rotting teeth.​We move as ghosts. The dense pine forest gradually gives way to a barren, rocky wasteland of grey shale and rusted, abandoned mining equipment. The air up here is bitterly cold, carrying the sharp, metallic tang of unmined silver and the suffocating, unnatural stench of dark magic. Nightshade. Boiling blood. And the sickly-sweet rot of burning sprite essence.​The blood moon hangs low and heavy on the horizon, swelling with a bruised, crimson light that paints the jagged rocks in shades of rust.​Kai is a shadow moving seamlessly through the gloom ahead of me. His dark tactical gear blends perfectly with the encroaching night. He communicates purely in sharp, precise hand signals. I stay exactly at his six o'clock, my boots finding the silent patches of moss between the loose scree.​The mate bond is pulled taut between us—a vibrating, hyper-aware wire of pure adrenaline. Aria is

    Elvira POV​The courtyard below my bedroom window is a hive of disgusting, coordinated activity.​I stand hidden behind the heavy velvet drapes, my manicured nails biting sharply into my palms. The late afternoon sun casts long, bloody shadows across the packed dirt of the training yard. Below me, Blood Moon warriors are loading heavy black tactical crates into the backs of reinforced SUVs. I can hear the sharp, metallic clink of silver-laced arrowheads shifting in their quivers.​They are not preparing for a simple border patrol. This is a mobilisation.​A siege.​My breath hitches, the acrid taste of the morning’s pregnancy potion rising in the back of my throat. I press a hand to my magically swollen belly, the false weight of it suddenly feeling like an anchor dragging me down.​Cassian. They found him.​They must have. Reed and Keira, those filthy Gamma warriors, slipped into the packhouse looking like they had crawled through a graveyard this morning. Now, the entire pack is str

  • Dagger of the Blood Moon   Chapter 63

    Liora POVThe charged intimacy of before vanishes the second the heavy oak doors open fully. The air grows instantly thick with the press of bodies, the smell of damp parchment, and the sharp, metallic tang of desperate strategy. Voices overlap like the snarls of a pack preparing for a hunt.​But Kai's concession still hums wildly in my veins.​His touch is a phantom brand burning on my jaw. The almost-kiss lingers in the space between us like smoke. His stormy grey eyes had promised so much more than words. The bond is a thrumming, constant ache that makes Aria pace restlessly in my mind, her tail lashing with impatient want.​Moon Goddess. The way he looked at me. Hunger and absolute restraint warring in those silver-flecked depths. His thumb tracing my skin like he was actively mapping the mating mark he finally intends to leave. It terrifies and thrills me in equal measure. The lingering chill of the suppression serum violently wars with the heavy heat he stirs.​But his faith in

    Liora POVThe world dissolves into a golden haze the moment my blood touches the pedestal, the Silver Dagger’s ruby pulsing in my hand like a second heartbeat. Power surges through me—a searing, binding hum that drowns out the shrine’s musty rot and the sharp tang of silver veins. Pain lances behin

    Kai POVThe shrine chamber is silent except for the low, resonant hum of ancient magic, the silver veins in the walls pulsing like slow heartbeats. Torchlight flickers across the carved wolves and lunar phases, casting long shadows that seem to watch us. Liora steps forward toward the pedestal, her

    Kael POVThe ruins of Shadow Ridge are a rogue’s wet dream and a nightmare rolled into one. Crumbling stone spires jutting from the fog like the bleached bones of some ancient beast, thorny vines snaking across them like veins pulsing with quiet malice. The air is thick with damp mist that clings t

  • Dagger of the Blood Moon   Chapter 27

    Kai POVThe journey to Shadow Ridge’s ruins feels like a gauntlet forged from the land’s own malice, the pre-dawn fog clinging to us like a living shroud, thick and cold. Turning the ancient forest into a labyrinth of whispers and half-seen threats. We left the SUVs at the edge of rogue territory
