ELARA

Darkness releases me and I find myself laying once more in my palace.

I drifted upwards from the floor, coughing through the sharp tang of blood. My pale hands shimmered with a deep impossible red.

“You’re dying,” I snapped my head up in shock.

That voice…

“My baby girl,” her voice was exactly the way I remembered it. My eyes burned. I held the tears hostage.

This wasn’t real.

I breathed shallowly, afraid the grief would spill if I let it in too deep.

Suddenly, cool hands glided over my shoulders and the tears dropped when they enfolded me in an embrace.

I buried my head in her neck, her warmth like it had never been missed before.

How was this even possible?

“Mom” my voice trembled. She shushed me. Gently touching my cheeks as she caressed them softly.

She was still the same. Blue eyes the colour of calm sea. Moon-white hair that used to fall over my face when she hugged me.

Guilt ate at my heart. I couldn’t bear looking into the eyes of a woman so p

    114—DamonThe air felt taut, every fibre in my system burning with intensity. I held the pose long enough until I was sure Gerald had disappeared. I raised my head slightly above the pillar—emptiness, he was gone. "What the—" My voice trailed off into the distance. My eyes bulged, my heart palpitated faster in my chest. I couldn't believe what I had just witnessed. "Or was this some sort of dream?" I pinched the skin around my wrist to ensure this was reality. I forced the bile in my throat, snaking its way down to create a pit in my stomach. I got up and immediately headed for the dorm room, hoping and praying that I would meet my brothers. I couldn't shake the image of Gerald standing rigidly on both feet—no faltering—no signs of weakness or that he suffered deadly injuries to his body just days ago. Worse, the image of Principal Horrow flinching before Gerald was burrowed into my mind like screws. Hastening my pace towards the dorm, the sound of the distant voices in the cour

    KAEL I didn’t know how I’d made it back to the academy. My body was still buzzing with the remnants of the forest, the storm, and the bond pulsing through me like molten fire. Every step I took toward the dorm felt heavy, loaded with urgency. Elara’ small weight in my arms was grounding, her pulse faint but steady. She was quiet. Unusually quiet. I could feel her defiance, simmering just under the surface, but she allowed me to carry her. That alone made my wolf stir, claws unsheathed, restless. Protect. Protect. Protect. The dorm came into view, windows dimly glowing. I could feel every shadow as though it whispered secrets. My hand tightened slightly around Riven’s waist, just enough to remind her—and myself—who I was. The bond pulsed beneath my skin, sharp and hot, telling me she was aware of every thought in my head. I didn’t dare let her see the fire in my eyes. Not fully. Not yet. We stepped into the hallway. I could feel the tension coil around me even before I saw him.

    KAEL I couldn’t breathe.Not properly. Not when she was there, standing just beyond the firelight, shadowed, trembling, but daring. Daring to look at me. Daring to know that I had exploded, torn into my brothers, torn into the very air with my fury, and she had heard it all.My wolf growled low in my chest, every hair on my body rising, claws scraping invisible surfaces. Protect. Protect. Protect. It wasn’t just instinct anymore—it was blood, it was fire, it was hunger that had nothing to do with desire and everything to do with ownership.She turned slightly, and my stomach twisted. Elara. My Elara. My Riven. My mate. And yet… the word tasted strange on my tongue, too sacred to speak aloud. And here she was, defiant, fiery, refusing to cower, refusing to apologize, refusing to let me take control.I wanted to drag her to me. Hold her until she understood that no one—not Gerald, not anyone—could touch her, could look at her the way I had. I could feel Gerald’s presence like a thorn u

    CASSIDAN I had never felt a night so heavy.Rain still clung to the forest leaves outside, dripping onto the ground with a slow, persistent rhythm, but inside the small room, the air was thicker. Charged. Kael’s fury radiated like heat from molten rock, Damon’s restraint was taut like a bowstring ready to snap, and I—well, I was caught somewhere between reason and rage.“She should’ve never been pushed this far!” Kael’s voice was a low growl, teeth bared, eyes flickering gold at intervals as if his wolf demanded blood. “Do you hear me? Never!”I rubbed my temples, trying to focus. “Kael, yelling isn’t going to fix this. She’s alive, that’s what matters.”“Alive?” Kael spat, his words sharp, slicing the air. “Alive doesn’t mean she isn’t dying inside! Alive doesn’t mean she’s not screaming while we argue like idiots over a ritual we barely understood!”Damon stepped in, slow and deliberate. “We didn’t know the bond would react like this. None of us did. Kael, you can’t—”“Don’t!” Kael

    ELARASound came back to me before sight did.Muffled. Fading in and out like someone was speaking through water.Then came pain—sharp, pulsing through my ribs, down my spine, curling into my hands. Every breath I took hurt, like something inside me was clawing its way out.“Elara,” a voice said. Not a whisper. Not a shout. Just raw, breaking. “Please.”Kael.My eyes fluttered open, the world tilting in and out of focus. There was mud on my cheek, and rain dripping from Kael’s hair as he hovered over me, his face pale and wild. Damon knelt beside him, trying to steady me, while Cassidan paced in the background, muttering under his breath and gripping his head like he could crush the guilt out of it.“Kael,” I croaked. My voice sounded foreign, cracked and distant.His head jerked toward me instantly, eyes burning gold at the edges. “I’ve got you. You’re okay.”No, I wasn’t. Everything hurt. My skin felt like it was splitting, my heartbeat too slow, too wrong.“What… happened?” I whisp

    ElaraThe forest was quieter than it should’ve been. Too quiet.No crickets, no rustling leaves, no sign of night life—just the whisper of rain-soaked wind slicing through the trees.Cassidan led the way, torchlight trembling in his hand. The glow cut across his sharp jaw and the edges of his coat, casting his face in pieces of gold and shadow. Damon followed beside him, and Kael was right behind me. Too close. Every time his boot crunched the ground, I felt it at the base of my spine.My heart wouldn’t stop pounding.“We’re not supposed to be here, Cass,” I said, my voice sharper than I intended. “This side was restricted for a reason. You remember what happened here, don’t you? The attacks. The bodies. Gerald—”“Gerald is the reason we need to be here,” Kael cut in from behind me.I turned to glare at him, my eyes burning. “Oh, of course. Because you always know better, right? You always know what’s best for everyone but yourself.”His eyes flashed, wolf-dark and cold. “Don’t start,
