POV: Corin

Night settled over the forgotten village like a shroud.

The ruined cottages had gone dark, their broken windows staring blankly into the forest as the others rested inside the central hall. A small fire burned low near the entrance, its glow barely strong enough to keep the shadows at bay.

Corin had volunteered for the first patrol.

Truthfully, he had not wanted sleep.

Not after what had happened with the map.

Not after the stone had answered the twins.

  • His Rejected Mate's Secret    CHAPTER 61 – The Red Hunter

    POV: CorinNight settled over the forgotten village like a shroud.The ruined cottages had gone dark, their broken windows staring blankly into the forest as the others rested inside the central hall. A small fire burned low near the entrance, its glow barely strong enough to keep the shadows at bay.Corin had volunteered for the first patrol.Truthfully, he had not wanted sleep.Not after what had happened with the map.Not after the stone had answered the twins.The forest beyond the ruined settlement felt wrong.Too still.Too aware.He moved silently between the trees, boots barely disturbing the carpet of fallen leaves. Moonlight slipped through the branches in fractured streaks, painting pale lines across the earth.The silver moon was high.But now and then, through breaks in the canopy, Corin caught the red one.Watching.His hand rested near the hilt of the blade strapped across his back.The deeper he walked, the quieter the forest became.Then he noticed it.There were no b

  • His Rejected Mate's Secret    CHAPTER 60 – The Forgotten Village

    POV: AfnanBy nightfall, the forest had changed.The towering pines that had lined the mountain road gave way to older woods, deeper, darker, and heavy with the hush of forgotten things. Branches twisted overhead in thick arches, blotting out most of the moonlight, while long curtains of moss swayed gently in the cold wind.Even the wolves had gone quiet.The horses slowed as the path narrowed into what had once been a road.Afnan felt it before she saw it.A lingering hum in the air.Ancient.Dormant.Watching.Then the trees opened.And the village appeared.It lay swallowed by vines.Broken stone cottages leaned into one another like weary ghosts, their rooftops caved in beneath years of rain and neglect. Thick ivy crawled across shattered walls, threading through empty windows and cracked chimneys. The remains of wooden doors hung crooked on rusted hinges, and old wolf carvings had been etched into nearly every threshold.A settlement once alive.Now abandoned to time.The twins g

  • His Rejected Mate's Secret    CHAPTER 59 – The Road East

    POV: DelphMorning came wrapped in mist.It rolled down the mountain slopes in pale ribbons, spilling over the stone walls of Bloodstone Fortress and curling around the courtyard like ghostly fingers. The dawn sun had barely broken over the horizon, its light soft and gold behind the thick silver haze.The courtyard below was alive with quiet motion.Horses stamped against the cold ground, their breaths rising in white clouds. Leather saddlebags, bedrolls, and provisions were being fastened with practiced hands. Wolves moved in disciplined silence, securing supplies and checking the harnesses one last time.The air smelled of damp stone, pine, and the sharp promise of departure.Delph stood near the lead horse, adjusting the strap of his cloak against the morning chill.For the first time in many months, he was leaving Bloodstone not for war,but for answers.Still, the weight settling across his shoulders felt achingly familiar.This journey carried too many unknowns.Too many things

  • His Rejected Mate's Secret    CHAPTER 58 – Under Two Moons

    POV: AfnanNight returned to Bloodstone clothed in wonder.The fortress rose from the mountains like a sleeping giant, its black stone walls silvered by moonlight, its towers sharp against the vast heavens. Yet tonight the sky was unlike anything the pack had seen in generations.Two moons hung above Bloodstone.One shone in its familiar silver brilliance, cool and serene, pouring pale light across the courtyard stones and the surrounding forest.The other glowed red.Not fiery, not violent, but deep and ancient, a crimson orb suspended beside its silver twin like a wound in the heavens.Afnan stood at the top of the courtyard steps and looked upward, the cold night air brushing against her face.Around her, the entire pack had gathered.Warriors.Healers.Children clinging to their mothers’ robes.Elders leaning on carved staffs of mountain ash.Even those who had once doubted the old prophecies now stood in silent awe beneath the twin moons.Whispers moved through the crowd.“It’s a

  • His Rejected Mate's Secret    CHAPTER 57 – Lessons in Light

    POV: DelphMorning arrived wrapped in silver mist.The training fields behind Bloodstone Fortress lay hushed beneath the pale breath of dawn, the grass jeweled with dew that caught the first hints of sunlight. Wooden practice posts stood in neat rows, dark with dampness, and the stone walls surrounding the yard loomed like silent sentinels against the waking sky.Delph stood at the center of the field, boots planted firmly in the wet earth.In front of him, the twins faced him with solemn expressions far too serious for children their age.Their small chests rose and fell quickly, more from excitement than effort. Barely awake an hour, and yet their eyes glimmered with the same silver light he had seen in Afnan’s the night before.Power.Ancient.Unpredictable.He softened his expression.“Again,” he said gently.The twins nodded in unison.They were so alike it still startled him sometimes, same dark curls kissed by morning light, same bright eyes, same stubborn set to their little m

  • His Rejected Mate's Secret    CHAPTER 56 – The Twins’ Dream

    POV: AfnanNight had draped the fortress in silver silence.Beyond the tall arched windows, the storm that had battered the halls earlier had passed, leaving the sky washed clean and luminous beneath a full, radiant moon. Pale light spilled through the curtains of the twins’ chamber, pooling across the stone floor in soft sheets of silver.Afnan stood at the doorway, one hand resting lightly against the carved wooden frame.She had come only to check on them.A habit she had never quite abandoned.The chamber was warm, scented faintly with lavender oil and the clean sweetness of linen dried in the mountain air. Two small beds stood side by side near the eastern wall, draped in pale blue canopies embroidered with crescent moons.Her twins slept there.Perfectly still.Too still.Then she heard it.A whisper.Soft.Breathy.A melody.Her heart paused.The twins were murmuring in their sleep.Not random words.Not restless murmurs.A song.Their voices rose together in eerie harmony, so

    (Afnan’s POV)Night pressed close, heavy and velveteen, as the valley gathered around the spring. Lanterns of woven willow hung from low branches, their flames tremoring like watchful eyes. The air tasted of wet earth and crushed herbs; it hummed with expectation, as if the land itself had paused t
