Kairos’s POV

“Alpha, we found blood at the eastern border.”

The knock came before dawn.

Silence followed three sharp raps. I woke up suddenly from sleep and sat at the edge of the bed. I stared at the floor looking for answers I didn't have.

“Enter,” I said.

Rowan pushed the door open, breathless, dirt streaked across his arms. “Alpha, check and see this.”

His voice carried an edge that got me on my feet before I could think.

I stepped outside with the cold air enough to bite. Warriors had gat

  • FALLING FOR THE ALPHA'S SHADOW   Chapter 236

    Kairos's POVThere are confessions you spend years preparing to make.And then there are the ones you pray will never be necessary.I had imagined telling Seren the truth a thousand times.In some versions, she screamed.In others, she walked away without looking back.Sometimes, she cried.Sometimes, she simply stared at me with those beautiful eyes, and I watched the last piece of trust between us disappear.But in none of those versions did I imagine telling her while standing in the middle of a dying mountain, with an ancient creature wearing her brother's face and the corruption threatening to consume us all.I had always hoped for a better moment.A quieter one.A moment when I could hold her hands and explain everything.But there was no better moment.There was only the truth.And the woman I loved deserved to know it.Seren stared at me.Her lips parted, but no words came.Behind her, the First Anchor's silver light continued gathering.My father-in-law looked as though someo

  • FALLING FOR THE ALPHA'S SHADOW   Chapter 235

    Kairos's POVThe first thing I noticed was the silence.Not the silence of an empty room.Not the silence that followed a battle.Something worse.Something that should not have existed.Seren was gone.I could see her.I could hear her screaming my name.I could see her reaching for me, her face twisted with terror, her fingers stretching desperately toward mine.But I couldn't feel her.The bond was gone.One moment, she had been there—her warmth, her fear, her stubborn determination pressing against my soul.The next, nothing.I had known pain before.I had watched warriors die in front of me. I had buried friends, lost territory, and carried the weight of an entire pack on my shoulders.But this?This was someone reaching into my chest and ripping out the part of me that knew how to breathe."Seren..."I heard myself say her name.It sounded distant.Like someone else was speaking.Then something laughed inside my head."How unfortunate."I stiffened.The voice was everywhere.Ins

  • FALLING FOR THE ALPHA'S SHADOW   Chapter 234

    Seren's POVI forgot how to breathe.For several seconds, all I could do was stare.The wolf stood at the far end of the chamber, half-hidden by the darkness spilling from the broken Core.Its body was enormous, covered in silver-grey fur. Black markings ran along its shoulders and down its spine, shifting beneath its coat like living shadows.Its eyes were familiar.Too familiar.I knew those eyes.I had seen them across dinner tables, in old photographs, in the memories I sometimes revisited when sleep refused to come.My brother.My brother was dead.I had watched him die.I remembered the blood.The screaming.The unbearable silence that followed.I remembered my father holding me back as I fought to reach him.And I remembered promising myself that I would never forget his face.Yet here he was.Alive.Or something wearing his shape."Seren?"His voice came through the chamber.Not the voice of a wolf.My brother's voice.My fingers went numb."No."He took one step forward."Lit

  • FALLING FOR THE ALPHA'S SHADOW   Chapter 233

    Seren's POVThere are some voices the soul remembers even when the mind has forgotten them.This was one of them.I couldn't move.Couldn't breathe.Couldn't even convince my fingers to tighten around Kairos's hand.The voice had called me by name.Not as a stranger would.Not as someone who had discovered it.But as someone who had been waiting a very, very long time to say it again."Who are you?" I whispered.The darkness beneath the Core stirred.A faint silver light emerged from the cracks in the stone, spreading like veins across the chamber floor.Then came a laugh.Soft.Familiar.Wrong."You really don't remember me?"My stomach twisted.Kairos stepped further in front of me."Show yourself."The darkness seemed to consider him.Then—"Ah. The successor."Something shifted beneath the mountain."How disappointing."Kairos's fingers tightened around mine."Careful."The voice laughed again."Still confusing strength with authority. I suppose some things never change."The Firs

  • FALLING FOR THE ALPHA'S SHADOW   Chapter 232

    Seren's POVNo.The thought came before I could even speak.No.I knew that look.I knew what the silver fire beneath his skin meant.And I knew Kairos well enough to recognize the particular kind of madness that came over him when he thought he was about to lose something."Don't."His eyes never left the First Anchor."Take it from her."The words were quiet.Terrifyingly quiet.My stomach dropped."Kairos."He finally looked at me.There was so much pain in his eyes that I almost forgot the agony tearing through my body.Almost."Take the corruption," he repeated, stepping between me and the Anchor. "Take it from her and put it in me."The First Anchor did not move.Its silver eyes studied him.The roots beneath the chamber floor began to tremble.My father, still suspended against the far wall, let out a strangled sound."Don't be a fool."Kairos ignored him."The successor mark," my father continued, his voice barely audible. "You don't understand what you're offering.""I underst

  • FALLING FOR THE ALPHA'S SHADOW   Chapter 231

    Seren’s POV“The most dangerous people are rarely the loudest. They are the ones who walk into revolutions smiling.”The High Alpha had not changed.That should have been impossible.The last time I saw her, I was fourteen and still small enough to mistake elegance for kindness.Now I knew better.Everything about her was controlled.The way she sat her horse.The measured tilt of her head.Even the slight smile on her face looked intentional enough to cut someone.Beside me, Kairos went utterly still.The successor mark beneath the Thread reacted sharply to hers.Recognition.Ancient.Instinctive.The courtyard felt it too.Wolves shifted uneasily below us, not out of forced submission—but because power recognized power even without command woven into the bond anymore.The High Alpha noticed the difference instantly.Of course she did.Her silver gaze swept across the territory slowly.The wolves standing freely.The loosened Thread.The absence of compulsory pressure.And then—Inte

  • FALLING FOR THE ALPHA'S SHADOW   Chapter Seventy-Five

    Kairos’s POV“I will tear this realm apart if it keeps her from me.”The barrier crackled under my palms, burning hot and cold at the same time. Light pulsed in slow breaths, opening and closing like the ribs of a beast. Every time I struck it, the whole clearing shook.But it did not break.Seren

    Kairos’s POV“She fell out of my hands before I could catch her breath, and that was when the world outside the door began to shake.”Seren didn’t just faint.She collapsed like the Thread cut every cord holding her up. The silver light left her eyes all at once, leaving her limp in my arms, cold a

  • FALLING FOR THE ALPHA'S SHADOW   Chapter Sixty 

    Seren’s POV“Kairos, something is wrong with the sky,” Rowan said, and the fear in his voice made my heart twist.The sky kept changing.Even after the sigil faded, the clouds stayed streaked with thin blue veins, like lightning frozen in place. The wolves around us whispered as they drifted back f
