TRINITY

I had wandered through the palace for what felt like hours, drawn by the sprawling, labyrinthine halls that seemed to stretch on forever.

I still wasn't over the little hunt Nasir placed on me. I had no idea how I ended up in my room. I suppose it must have been Xerxes’ doing. He was the one who hid me under the berry Bush in the first place.

I am just glad all that is over now.

The scent of polished wood and aged stone mingled with the faint perfume of something ancient, as though the air itself held the stories of centuries past. Every step I took echoed in the silence, and I couldn’t help but feel that the palace was alive, watching me.

I’d passed the same grand staircases, towering columns, and gilded doors so many times that I began to lose track of where I was. The place seemed to change every time I blinked—another hallway that turned into an open space, a door that led to somewhere unfamiliar. It was disorienting, but there was something exciting about it. Something

  • HIDDEN HOWL   Chapter 139 – Bound by Fire

    Nasir's POVHer voice is weak just like a whisper but hers. Trinity's voice."Hold on, Nasir… hold on" she saidThe voice tore through me like lightning cutting through darkness above. In one instant, I forgot shadows closing around me, forgot poison dripping off Morgana's lips, forgot the choking shroud of hopelessness she was trying to wrap me in.She was alive, then the bond between us flickered weakly like embers smoldering beneath ash but embers would continue to smolder. Embers would continue to set the darkness alight.I snarled at eyes that were not hers but still claimed her flesh "I heard her" I growled, my voice harsh and low with rebellion "You don't claim her, Morgana. You never will"Her smirk faltered for the first time and by mere hair's breadth but I saw it and I felt it then a crack in her ever-present haughtiness."You believe a whisper will rescue you?" she spat, shadows curling like snakes around her fingertips. "She's weak. She's floundering and i'm the one keepi

  • HIDDEN HOWL   Chapter 138 – Queen of Shadows

    Morgana's POVOh, the sweet silence and their bond flickered again, tenuous and frail, and I felt it run through me like strands of silk being pulled asunder. The Alpha's terror sluiced off him in waves and I drank it in like a desiccated wolf savoring blood for the first time in ages.Poor battered Trinity fought from inside but her little fists against my cell barely left a scratch. She was a bird in a cage, flapping wildly as I opened her wings to make my own escape.Nasir's amber eyes burned with wild rage. He shook the body we shared, like Trinity would somehow reappear if he shook her hard enough Dumb man.I nipped her lips into a sneer "That vacancy in your eyes suits you, Alpha. Does it hurt losing her piece by piece?"His grip on my wrists grew tighter "You won't win cos she's stronger than you think"I laughed a laugh that sounded in the room like breaking glass "Stronger? Oh, I've enjoyed her strength. Bitter, sweet, twisted with fear and that girl is drowning in self-doubt

  • HIDDEN HOWL   Chapter 137 – Firestorm of Shadows

    Nasir's POVThe world froze the moment her hand burst forth, black fire charring in a mad arc and for an impossible beat, I could've sworn to see every flicker of that damned flame albeit, alive, hungry and writhing with Morgana's venom. It wasn't Trinity, it couldn't be but it was her hand, her fingers and her power."Trinity" The word tore from my mouth like a war cry and my wolf churned inside me, struggling against my ribs, demanding I protect her at all costs. My instincts were screaming at me to dodge, to survive but my heart anchored me to the ground and to flee would be to let Morgana believe she had already won. The fire hit and it wasn't sun-warmth or flame-burning from a regular fire, this was not the same, it burrowed inside the skin, clawing for bone, drawing breath in blasphemies that twined themselves around my veins and my knees buckled but i straightened them, clenching teeth so hard i thought they'd break.Out of the smoke haze, her gaze crossed with mine. Not Morga

  • HIDDEN HOWL   Chapter 136 – The Caged Soul

    Trinity’s POVIt was like being buried alive and I could see and feel everything, the cold night air against my skin, the heat of Nasir’s grip still burning on my arms and the ragged breaths tearing through my lungs but I wasn't the one moving. My body belonged to someone else now...Morgana.Her laughter rippled through my chest, spilling from my lips, it wasn’t my voice anymore as it carried a richness, a venom that wasn’t human.Nasir staggered to his feet, his chest heaving, blood dripping from a wound across his ribs. His eyes glowed like molten amber, fixed on me with disbelief and dread “Trinity” His voice cracked on my name.My lips curled into a smile. I didn't choose “Not anymore” Morgana purred, stepping toward him and each stride was mine but not mine “You’re staring at the end of your world Alpha.”No, I screamed inside, beating against the walls of my mind. Don’t listen to her Nasir. It’s me and I'm still here but he couldn’t hear me.Nasir’s jaw clenched, fury sparking i

  • HIDDEN HOWL   Chapter 135 – Chains in the Mind

    Trinity's POVFire....that was what it felt like. Not the golden kind that flickered in fireplaces but the one that devoured forests, burning and merciless. It ripped through every vein, reducing flesh and bone to ashes, destroying reason."No!" The scream tore out of me but it wasn't mine, it was a strangled one as Nasir's arms clamped over me like steel chains, his voice a guttural snarl in my ear "Fight her, Trinity. Stay with me and don't let her in!"But Morgana was already there and a voice crept into my mind like a snake, smooth and lethal. "Why struggle?" he asked "You've always been weak, always a stranger and let me show you what true power is.My chest heaved, my fingernails clawing at my own skin like i might rend her from it "Get out of my head"Nasir's grip turned firm, holding me in place, his scent inundating my senses with dirt, storm and wolf "Think about me alone, you hear me, doll? You're mine and not hers" i saidBut Morgana laughed. Not out loud inside me. Every

  • HIDDEN HOWL   Chapter 134 – The Alpha's Vow

    Nasir's POVNight wind carried the smell of something not of this world.My wolf stood on end the moment it reached me, pungent ash, frozen dirt and something older than death. I came to a halt on the northern ridge, nostrils flared with every instinct howling.Lucian caught the shift a fraction later. His shadow-dappled eyes flashed to me, blade-sharp "You can smell it too."Not a question."Yes" I growled "She's here."Trinity's face exploded in my mind, wide eyes and exposed. My chest knotted, rage and terror careening into each other. Morgana's presence was no rumor anymore; it was a fresh wound spilling onto our soil. Behind us, warriors shifted uncomfortably. Kael stood among them and his gaze on the forest boundary. For once, he wasn't taunting me. He appeared ready to rend the woods asunder.A snarl of warning low in my chest "We hold her in the wards until i say so with no exceptions.""She won't like that" Kael growled, begrudgingly meeting my eye.I whirled on him, amber b
