"I believed that I would be set free if I broke the Thread. Rather, it left something empty and something that was still paying attention.
There was silence when I woke up.
It's the cold, heavy sorting that hums in your bones, not the gentle kind that comes with tranquily. The type that resembles that instant following thunder.
Every nerve in my body hurt like it had been scorched and built. My arm began to hurt when I attempted to move. There was the lingering smell of ash combined with a cleaner scent of smoke, steel, and cedar.
Kairos.
My eyes snapped open. This time, instead of the infirmary, I was in his quarters. Low in the hearth, a fire crackled. Slow, sluggish flakes of snow fell outside the window.
He sat in the corner, head bowed, elbows resting on his knees. His sword lay against the wall beside him, still streaked with blackened ash. His eyes were closed, but his jaw was cle

FALLING FOR THE ALPHA'S SHADOW Chapter Ninety-Three
Seren’s POV“I woke to the sound of the wind crying, and for a moment I thought it was me.”The room was dim. The fire had burned low. A faint blue glow seeped through the cracks of the window shutters, mixing with the warm orange light. It painted strange colors across the floor.My head throbbed. My chest felt tight, as though someone had pressed their hand inside my ribs and twisted.But the first thing I noticed was weight.Arms. Warm. Strong. Holding me.Kairos.My cheek rested against his chest. His scent wrapped around me like a blanket. Woodsmoke. Cold air. Something ancient that steadied my breathing.My fingers were tangled in his shirt.I must have held on even in sleep.For a second, I stayed still. The bond between us felt softer now, the pull less sharp. But there was something else inside it. Something heavy. Something he was hiding from me.He was awake.I felt it in his breathing.“Kairos,” I whispered.He shifted, resting his chin lightly against the top of my head.
FALLING FOR THE ALPHA'S SHADOW Chapter Ninety-Two
Kairos’s POV“The moment Seren collapsed into my arms, I knew something inside her had changed.”Her body trembled against me, cold and weak. I sank to my knees in the snow with her cradled against my chest. The scent of her fear hit me first. Sharp. Raw. It clawed through my control. Marek pushed forward inside me, restless and angry.Rowan reached us in seconds. “Alpha. What happened. She vanished. The whole forest shook.”“I know.” My voice came out tight. “She was pulled.”Seren lifted her head weakly. Her eyes flickered with silver light. Not normal silver. Brighter. Wilder. It made the hair rise on my neck.I brushed a thumb over her cheek. “Seren. Look at me.”Her gaze struggled to focus. “I came back.”“You did.” I pressed my forehead to hers. “You did.”But even while holding her, I felt the echo of something else. A presence. A shadow clinging to her through the Thread.It was faint.But it was there.Lily ran toward us with two healers. “Alpha. Her aura is shaking. We need
FALLING FOR THE ALPHA'S SHADOW Chapter Ninety-One
Seren’s POV“The darkness did not feel empty when it took me. It felt like someone was waiting for me inside it.”At first, everything was silent.Not quiet.Silent, like sound had been removed from the world.The cold wrapped around me. My body felt weightless. My breath fogged in front of me, then vanished into the black air. I tried to step back, but my foot did not touch ground. There was no ground at all.Only floating shadow.A faint crackling sound rose behind me. I turned slowly. Blue lines glowed across the darkness. They curled like veins or threads and pulsed in time with my heartbeat.The Ravager’s voice filled the space.“Little Threadbearer. You have come home.”“I did not come,” I whispered. “You dragged me.”A soft chuckle rippled through the dark. “You tied yourself to the Alpha. You opened the path yourself.”I clenched my fists. “I did not open anything for you.”“Yet here you are.”The shadows thickened ahead of me. They twisted like smoke being pulled into a shape
FALLING FOR THE ALPHA'S SHADOW Chapter Ninety
Seren’s POV“The moment I heard his voice inside the air, I knew I had pushed the Thread too far.”**My body jerked as if someone pulled a cord inside my spine. The world blurred into streaks of white and silver. Kairos held me close, but I felt like I was slipping through him. The Thread inside me pulsed, wild and sharp. It hurt. It burned. It clawed at my chest like it wanted out.Then his voice echoed again.Strong. Cold. Deep enough to shake the trees.“You cannot hide her from me.”The Ravager.He was not speaking from the forest anymore.He was speaking inside the Thread.Inside me.I gasped and grabbed Kairos’s cloak. “He is in my head.”Kairos’s arms tightened around me. “Seren. Look at me.”But I could not hold focus.The world tilted sideways.My heartbeat slammed against my ribs.Lily cried out, “Her eyes. Kairos, look at her eyes.”Kairos cupped my face. “Seren. Stay with me.”I tried.I truly tried.But the Thread pulled me toward a different voice.The Ravager’s voice.“
FALLING FOR THE ALPHA'S SHADOW Chapter Eighty-Nine
Kairos’s POV“If he is already here, then every second we stand still is a mistake.”The moment the words left my mouth, the forest shifted. Not with sound. Not with movement. With pressure. Heavy. Slow. Cold. Like something enormous was pushing against the world from the inside.Seren’s breath caught beside me.She grabbed my sleeve. “Kairos. Do you feel that?”“Yes.”The ground under our boots trembled. Not enough to shake snow loose, but enough that I could sense the wolves in the kernels stir and whine.Lily backed away. “This feels wrong.”Rowan drew his blade. “Where is he?”“Everywhere and nowhere,” Seren whispered. “He is not walking. He is reaching.”The Thread inside her glowed faintly. I hated how it pulled at her. I hated how it sensed him even from here. I moved in front of her without thinking.“Stay behind me.”She shook her head. “No.”“Seren.”“Kairos.”We stared at each other in the cold wind. Snow swirled around us like restless spirits. The forest pressed in tighte
FALLING FOR THE ALPHA'S SHADOW Chapter Eighty-Eight
Seren’s POV“If he thinks I will let him fight alone, he does not know me at all.”That was the first clear thought I had as soon as Kairos stepped out of the healer’s room. The door clicked shut behind him. Mira gave me a sharp look.“Do not move,” she warned. “You are barely holding steady.”“I am fine.”A lie.My hands were still trembling.“You are not fine,” Mira said. “Your pulse is weak, your thread is unstable, and your entire body feels cold. Do not pretend you can walk out of here like nothing is wrong.”“I can and I will.”She placed a firm hand on my shoulder. “Seren.”I exhaled sharply. “He is preparing to face the Alpha Ravager alone. You expect me to stay in this room while he does that?”“For once,” Mira muttered, “yes.”But the moment Kairos closed the door, the Thread inside me stretched again. It tugged toward him like a cord pulled tight. Mira’s face blurred for a second, and I grabbed the side of the cot to steady myself.Mira’s expression softened. “Seren… sit do
