Dying Was Easier Than Loving Him Chapter 119
Lucas's POVDawn broke over the pack grounds with a pale, cold light that offered no real warmth, casting long, stark shadows across the grass where every enforcer in Silverpine stood poised and silent.I waited at the center of the clearing beside Damien, the atmosphere thick with a low, collective hum of nervous tension as every wolf in the pack sniffed the wind for any hint of danger. A few steps behind me, Amelia stood with her hands clenched into fists at her sides, her human scent sharp with unmasked anxiety, stretching the invisible thread of our mate bond taut against my ribs.I had spent my entire life walking into dangerous rooms alone, refusing to let anyone share my burdens, yet the strangest part of this morning was how badly I wanted to pull her behind me and how clearly I knew she would refuse to stay there.After Aldric's warning in the archive, none of us had slept properly. The thief was inside Silverpine's walls, wearing a face we trusted. Every familiar voice, eve

Gabriella’s POVThe diner was dead quiet at closing time, save for the rhythmic squeak of my sponge moving back and forth across the sticky formica tabletop.My golden hair had long since been cropped short and dyed a dull, mousy brown to blend in with the greasy atmosphere of a coastal town two states away from Silverpine. My hands were rough, blistered and perpetually smelling of industrial dish soap and stale coffee... a life of honest physical labor that the old Gabriella would have sneered at with venomous contempt. I didn’t look at myself as a redeemed soul and I certainly didn’t think I was a good person. I was simply tired, carrying an exhaustion that went straight down to my bones. Yet, delivering that frantic warning to Amelia at the pack border months ago remained the single thing I had ever done that served zero selfish purpose. The strange, quiet hollow in my chest since that night was the closest thing to peace I had ever known.“You’re burning the midnight oil again,

Amelia's POVI barely noticed the scent as I stood in the doorway with my mother's hand still warm and trembling in mine.Aldric studied me with an aching tenderness, looking at me the way a man might look at someone he had waited three long centuries to meet. He didn't rush his words, choosing instead to let the heavy silence settle over the room before he spoke.“Your wolf was never taken by the Hollow,” Aldric said plainly, his golden eyes steady as he crossed his arms over his chest.A sharp breath caught in my throat. “What do you mean?” I asked, my fingers tightening around my mother's wrist. “The guardian said the price had to be paid.”“The Hollow's price was paid in full the exact moment the doctor took the keeper's seat,” Aldric explained, shaking his head. “What happened afterward had nothing to do with the mountain. It was theft. In the precise instant the seal closed, a thread of your wolf's spirit was pulled out through the fissure in the earth.”He paused, pressing a ha

Damien’s POVThe gray, pale light of pre-dawn hung over the ancient grove like a shroud of wet wool as I stood at the perimeter with every enforcer in Silverpine lined up at my back.My wolf was bristling aggressively right beneath my skin, scratching at my ribs with a restless panic that made my hands twitch against the hilt of my blade. The fissure in the earth, which should have been locked tight after Evans paid the debt, was glowing with a blinding, ethereal silver radiance. A tall, gaunt figure staggered out of the rising mist, its skin as pale as polished bone and its eyes burning with the soft, endless gold of the founders’ spirit wolf.It moved with the clumsy, careful uncertainty of a newborn deer learning how to use its legs for the very first time. Each step seemed to demand an effort it barely understood, as though its body had forgotten the simple act of walking during centuries of confinement.My animal instincts screamed that it was a threat, a parasite crawling out

Lucas's POVThe doors of the infirmary slammed against the wall as I rushed inside with Amelia right beside me, holding Marianne's trembling, ashen frame between us.My surgeon's hands remained entirely steady out of sheer habit, even as a cold band of terror tightened around my chest at the sight of the woman who had given my mate life. She looked so fragile and broken, clutching the open leather journal like a drowning sailor holding a spar.I lowered her onto the examination table with practiced efficiency, stripped off my jacket and reached for the saline drips and emergency monitors while Mabel hurried over with fresh towels. I stabilized her vitals within minutes, forcing a steady rhythm back into her shallow breathing, but the moment her eyes fluttered open, she batted my hands away and refused to rest.“Don't waste medicine on an old debt,” Marianne rasped, her voice catching on a wet cough as she gripped my wrist with surprising strength. “Listen to me, Lucas. I have to say

Amelia's POVAfternoon sunlight pooled across the rumpled sheets of the safehouse bed, casting long, golden bars of light over the blankets while our daughter finally drifted into a deep, exhausted sleep against the pillows.I sat on the edge of the mattress, staring down at my hands and trying to reach inward for the familiar, comforting presence that had lived under my skin since the night of my very first shift.There was nothing there.No low growl at the edge of my consciousness, no sudden spike of instinct when the wind shifted outside the window, not even a faint hum of energy. There was only a smooth, aching quiet where my wolf used to be, a vast, hollow emptiness that felt entirely wrong.Mabel had examined me for hours inside the infirmary, running her fingers over my arms and checking my pulse with a furrowed brow, but she found no physical wound, no hidden curse and no trace of biological damage. Her final conclusion came with quiet, devastating certainty: the Hollow had ta
