Ella.

"You need to know what could happen if you complete the primary bond first and never complete the secondary bond," Jason said, pulling out his phone. "And Kyle either doesn't realize it or he's pretending not to care."

I watched him scroll through something on his screen. My heart hammered against my ribs.

"What are you talking about?"

"Triad Bonds are rare. Really rare. Most packs go generations without seeing one. Which means there's not a lot of research on them. Most of what we know c

    Kyle.My wolf surged forward. Protective. Furious. Every instinct screaming to hunt. To eliminate the threat before it reached my family."He's coming here.""That's why I needed to tell you immediately. I wanted to warn you earlier, but I needed confirmation. I needed to be sure."Ella sank back onto the couch. Processing everything. The color had drained from her face completely."He's coming for me because of something that happened before I was born. Something I had no control over. Something my mother did."I knelt in front of her. Took her hands. They were ice cold despite the warm room."He's not getting anywhere near you. I promise.""Kyle, he's dangerous. He almost destroyed your pack once. He knows how you think. How you fight.""And he failed. He'll fail again. We're stronger now. Better prepared."Thomas stood. Paced to the window. "I should have told you sooner. As soon as I found the documents. But I wanted to verify everything first. I thought maybe I was overreacting."

    Kyle.I excused myself from the conversation and stepped away from the crowd. Ella followed, concern crossing her face."Thomas?""Kyle." His voice was tight. "I need to talk to you and Ella. Privately. It's urgent.""What's wrong?""Not over the phone. Can you come home tonight?"I glanced at Ella. She was watching me with worry in her eyes."We're in DC. We can catch the first flight tomorrow morning.""Make it tonight if you can. This is important."The call ended. I turned to Ella."Your father needs to see us. Now.""Is he okay?""He sounded scared."We left the reception immediately. I called the driver while Ella gathered our things from the hotel. The drive to the airport felt endless. Traffic crawled. Red lights seemed to last forever."What do you think happened?" Ella asked."I don't know. But Thomas doesn't scare easily.""Maybe something with Jane? The baby?""He would have said that over the phone."We caught a late flight home. The plane was nearly empty. Just us and a

    Kyle.Kieran woke up next. The twins were identical, right down to the worry in their eyes."Is she okay?" Kieran asked immediately."I'm fine," Rachel said softly."You are all going to be fine," I added. "But you need to stop fighting the bond.""The elders say it's wrong," Kieran said. "That nature doesn't work this way.""Nature created the bond. That makes it natural, no matter what the elders think."Over the next few days, I worked intensively with all three of them. Teaching them meditation techniques Ella and I had developed. Showing them how to channel bond energy instead of resisting it. Helping them understand that their situation wasn't a curse but a gift.We practiced breathing exercises. Visualization techniques. Ways to synchronize their energies instead of fighting them.Rachel struggled at first. "It feels wrong. Like I'm betraying one of them by loving the other.""You're not betraying anyone. The bond connects all three of you equally.""But society says...""Socie

    Kyle.My phone rang at two in the morning.I jerked awake, reaching for it before the second ring could wake Ella or Maya. The caller ID showed an unfamiliar number with an area code I didn't recognize."Hello?""Alpha Kyle Torres?" A male voice, rough with exhaustion."Speaking.""My name is Alpha Caleb Wilder from the Cascade Pack in Oregon. I apologize for the late hour, but we have an emergency situation. We need your help."I sat up slowly, careful not to disturb Ella. She stirred slightly but didn't wake. "What kind of emergency?""We have a young she-wolf experiencing a triad bond. She's eighteen years old, and the bond is killing all three of them. We heard about your experience with Luna Ella and Alpha Jason. Your expertise could save three lives."The words hit me like a punch. A triad bond. Someone else going through what we'd survived."How long has this been happening?""Three weeks. The deterioration is accelerating. We've tried everything we know, but nothing's working.

    Ella.The ceremony ended with more cheers and celebration. Guests threw flower petals as Marcus and Elena walked back down the aisle together, officially married at last. Their faces glowed with joy.The reception started immediately. Pack members had transformed the adjacent area into a celebration space. Tables loaded with food appeared. Music played from speakers hidden among the decorations. Dancing began almost instantly.Maya found Marcus and Elena quickly, tugging on their joined hands. "Can I dance with you? Both of you?""Of course, sweet girl," Marcus said, lifting her up.They moved to the dance floor, all three of them. Maya stood between her grandparents, holding both their hands as they swayed to the music. Her laughter rang out, pure and joyful.Kyle appeared at my side, offering his hand. "Dance with me?""Always."We joined the others on the makeshift dance floor. Kyle pulled me close, one hand at my waist, the other holding mine. The familiar warmth of his body press

    Ella.The dress fit perfectly.I stood in Elena's guest room, adjusting the soft blue fabric while she fussed with her veil in the mirror. Her wedding day had finally arrived, and nervous energy filled the space between us."Stop fidgeting," I told her gently. "You look beautiful.""I can't help it. What if I trip walking down the aisle? What if I forget my vows?""You won't. And even if you do, Marcus will be too busy staring at you to notice."She laughed, some tension easing from her shoulders. "Thank you for being here. For standing with me today.""Where else would I be?"Outside, I could hear the growing crowd. Pack members arriving. Chairs being filled. The ceremony would start in twenty minutes.Maya burst through the door, her white flower girl dress swishing around her ankles. "Grandma! Everyone's ready! Uncle Ethan says it's almost time!""Almost," Elena confirmed. "Are you ready, sweet girl?""I've been practicing all week. I know exactly how fast to walk and when to throw

    Ella.The woods swallowed us whole.One moment we were at the tree line behind my house, the next we were deep in shadow and silence. Kyle moved like he could see in the dark, his hand steady in mine as he guided me over roots and around low branches."How much farther?" I whispered."Not far. Mayb

    Ella.Dad came over immediately. "How did it go?""Fine.""You two were holding hands the whole time.""We're mates, Dad. That's kind of the point.""I still don't like this.""I know. But you're letting it happen anyway. That counts for something."Dad sighed and sat down across from me. He picked

    Ella."They will," Kyle said."The Triad Bond makes you powerful. More powerful than most wolves. And once they see us together, see how the bond affects pack stability, they'll understand." I wasn't convinced but I nodded anyway. "What time?""Tomorrow evening. Six thirty. Wear something nice. No

    Kyle.The wolfsbane was wearing off.I could feel it in my bones, in the way my wolf clawed at the edges of my consciousness. Three days of that poison in my system to keep me calm enough for this meeting. Three days of feeling half-dead so Thomas Morrison wouldn't see me as the threat I actually w
