Chapter One Hundred and Ten

POV: Kael Dravon

I found out Sera had left the settlement before dawn from Kelvin, who woke me with the news already half-apologizing for not stopping her, and I was dressed and moving toward the north gate before he finished the sentence.

"She took no escort," he said, matching my pace. "The guards at the gate said she moved like she did not want to be stopped."

"She would not have been stopped," I said. "Not by them. Not by me either, if I had been awake to try."

    Chapter One Hundred and TenPOV: Kael DravonI found out Sera had left the settlement before dawn from Kelvin, who woke me with the news already half-apologizing for not stopping her, and I was dressed and moving toward the north gate before he finished the sentence."She took no escort," he said, matching my pace. "The guards at the gate said she moved like she did not want to be stopped.""She would not have been stopped," I said. "Not by them. Not by me either, if I had been awake to try."We were halfway to the marker stone when we met her coming back, Reuel walking beside her, close enough that my first instinct was territorial before I registered the expression on both their faces and understood that whatever had happened between them in that clearing had nothing to do with the fear I had carried the entire walk out."Sera.""I am fine," she said, before I could ask. "Kael, we need to talk. Somewhere private."I looked at Reuel. "You brought her back safely.""I followed her th

    Chapter One Hundred and SevenPOV: Reuel AshtonI watched Sera walk back through my gate until the trees swallowed the last of her, and only then did I let myself sit back down, because standing that steadily through the entire conversation had cost me more than I wanted her to see.The papers on my desk were still folded closed, exactly where I had left them, and I opened them again slowly, staring at the same lines I had been staring at before she walked in, as if enough repetition might change what they said.They did not change.The eastern border reports were not about Damien anymore, not directly. They had started there, the same financial trail I had been following for months, but three weeks ago the trail had led somewhere I had not expected, somewhere that made every conversation I had ever had with Kael Dravon about their shared enemy feel considerably more complicated than it had felt at the time.A knock sounded at my study door."Come," I said.My steward entered with a

    Chapter One Hundred and Eight POV: Kael Dravon The council chamber filled faster than usual. I noticed it the moment I walked in, the elders already seated, their expressions carrying the particular stillness reserved for decisions already half made before the discussion began. Reuel sat among them, quiet, his eyes moving toward me once before settling forward again. I took my seat near the front, aware of every gaze that followed me across the room. Word traveled quickly through this pack, and by the time I arrived it was clear most of the council already knew where I would stand before I said a single word in my own defense. Elder Voss opened the session without wasting time on formalities. "Two sets of tracks near the marker stone remain unidentified," he said, his voice carrying easily across the chamber. "Both deliberately concealed. Given the sensitivity of the breach, the council proposes an immediate restriction on the Veilborn's movement near the border." "What kind of

    Chapter One Hundred and SevenPOV: Reuel AshtonSera's questions carried more weight than she let on.I noticed it the moment she stepped through my door, the tightness in her shoulders, the way her eyes moved across the room before settling on me, cataloguing rather than simply seeing. I had known her long enough to read the difference between a visit born of comfort and one born of purpose. This was the second kind.It was not the first time I had watched her carry a question she was not yet ready to ask directly. Sera had always circled her fears before facing them, testing the ground with smaller questions before she trusted herself to ask the one that mattered most. I recognized the pattern because I had taught myself to do the same thing, years before she was ever born into this pack's troubles.I let her ask about the vision. I let her describe the markings, the woman with white hair, the words she could feel but never hear. Every

    Chapter One Hundred and SixPOV: Sera AshwoodReuel's home sat at the edge of the settlement, close enough to the tree line that the morning light barely reached his windows. I had visited this house more times than I could count over the years, back when his presence meant comfort instead of a question I did not yet know how to ask.The walk there gave me too much time to think. I kept turning Kael's words over in my mind, the way he had said someone we trust without hesitating, without softening it for my sake. He had never been a man who protected me from difficult truths, and that was one of the reasons I trusted him now. But trusting his instincts about the tracks meant sitting with the same fear he carried, and I was not ready to let that fear attach itself to a name yet.I told myself I was only going for the lore, nothing more.The vision at the marker stone still sat unresolved inside me, the woman with white hair and golden mark

  • EVEN ALPHAS KNEEL: The Rejected Mightiest Luna    Chapter One Hundred and Five

    Chapter One Hundred and FivePOV: Kael DravonThe tracks near the marker stone told two stories, and only one of them made sense.One set belonged to our patrol member. He had confirmed it himself, standing in front of me with his arms crossed and his eyes steady, explaining exactly when he checked the stone and exactly which path he took to reach it. Nothing about his account wavered.The other two sets did not belong to anyone who had reported being there.I crouched at the edge of the clearing, studying the ground Zara had marked the night before. The prints were shallow, careful, placed with the kind of restraint that came from someone who understood how easily a trail could betray its owner. Whoever left them had known we would search this ground.I had walked this border more times than I could count, in every season, under every kind of weather the mountains could throw at us. I knew which roots caught a boot at the wrong angle. I knew which patches of soil held a print for day
