The Den hadn’t changed.

The concrete walls that resembled stone were the same. The scent of food, dirty socks, and wolf still the same except for the hint of lavender that now tasted sweet on my tongue.

A pup ran out of one of the rooms, and almost bumped into me as another two were shifted, one with a white fur coat and the other in a grey and brown coat. I skillfully side stepped them and smiled.

My nerves started to kick in at the realization that I was in fact back with the pack. It was a good thing but it came with rules and regulations and a fuck ton of don't. Not sure how I felt about that since I wasn't one for listening to someone tell me where to drink my coffee. I was a detective. We were the fucking law.

I walked into the war room on the right without knocking. My boots hit the floor hard and steady. I didn’t pause at the threshold. Didn’t ask permission as I took a seat, crossed my denim pantsed legs and lifted my arm slightly over my shoulder.

  • How to Catch a Mate   Chapter 171

    AshlynThe world had gone still.No wind, no sound, just the faint hum of power between us. Krav stood a few feet away, his wings folding back, his body still half-shimmering from the flight. The air around him crackled with cold; frost clung to the grass, creeping toward me like his presence alone bent the elements.And still, I couldn’t move.I wanted to run to him, every part of me screamed to ut the moment I met his eyes, I knew it wasn’t just him standing there. The god lingered in the hollow edges of his stare, something vast and ancient flickering behind the man I loved.The tears came before the words. “I want to run into your arms and know you’re you,” I whispered. “But I can’t. Can I, Krav? Because you aren’t only you anymore.”The last word broke. I hated how small it sounded.Krav’s jaw clenched. His breath came out in a rush of frost. The gold in his eyes flickered, warping into that unnatural blue for a heartbeat, then back again. He looked torn—like two versions of him

  • How to Catch a Mate   Chapter 170

    AshlynThe coffee in my cup had gone cold an hour ago, but I was still pretending to drink it. The break room at the Den always smelled like burnt caffeine, pine soap, and sweat. It wasn’t glamorous, but it was home.Conan leaned back in his chair, boots up on the table like he owned it. “You really think Haden’s gonna hold the border this long?”Penny snorted. “If anyone can, it’s him. Man’s too stubborn to die.”Conan grinned. “Fair. I heard he made the new recruits scrub the south wall with toothbrushes.”“He did,” I muttered. “And if you two don’t stop talking shit, I’ll make you do the same.”That shut them up for a minute.Across the table, a young Sentinel, Tara, barely twenty if that tried not to laugh. “You’d really do that?”I looked up at her. “Try me.”Her smile vanished. I didn’t mean to scare her, but the truth was, the humor in this place always came out forced. Nobody laughed easily anymore. Not with half the pack on edge, not with a god loose in the world, and not wit

  • How to Catch a Mate   Chapter 169

    Krav I don’t know how long I’ve been here.The air smells wrong, stale, old, like stone that’s been sealed away from sunlight for centuries. The ground under me is hard, cracked. My wings ache like they’ve been torn out and put back in the wrong sockets. My knees sting, blood crusted over where I landed too fast. My throat burns, raw from shouting her name.Ashlyn.I’ve tried to call her again and again, through the bond, through the air, through whatever this place is. Nothing answers. It’s like screaming into a wall that eats sound.But I can feel her. Faint, far. A pulse of warmth in the distance. The mate bond still hums under my skin, quiet but alive. It’s the only reason I know I’m not dead.I drag myself up to my feet. The ground groans under me, echoing like I stepped into the ribs of a hollow beast. The place around me isn’t dark exactly—there’s a pale blue glow that leaks from the cracks in the stone, like veins of light running beneath the surface.My hands shake as I reac

  • How to Catch a Mate   Chapter 168

    Keiral The vision hit like lightning. One moment I was standing in the lab, halfway through reading a report on Mira’s latest bloodwork. The next, the world tilted and spun, and the ground under me wasn’t real anymore. Flashes of white, gold, blue. The air burned cold and hot at once. I saw chains made of light snapping one by one, heard voices like thunder rolling across a storm that had no end. Then a whisper—low, ancient, and sharp as glass—slid through the noise and wrapped around my spine. (Sever the bond and claim what’s lost. The broken must be bound, for only a true blood can claim a god.) I gasped and stumbled back, grabbing the counter. The sound of my own heartbeat drowned out everything else. When I blinked, the vision was gone—but the words burned behind my eyes. I’d had visions before. Small flashes. Warnings. But this was different. This felt like something had reached into me and left its mark. My hand shook as I grabbed my slate, writing the words before

  • How to Catch a Mate   Chapter 167

    Ashlyn It had been six days since Krav left.Six days of silence.Six days of trying not to break.The first night, I’d waited on the roof of the Den until the moon sank and the horizon paled with dawn. Every gust of wind that shifted the trees, every shadow that passed over the valley, I thought it was him. I told myself he’d come back when the storm inside him calmed, when he remembered that he belonged here—with me.He didn’t.By the second night, I stopped lying to myself. He wasn’t coming back because he didn’t want to be found.Dragons were like that. They could disappear between worlds, blend into storms, vanish into the cracks between light and shadow. Krav more than any of them—his power wasn’t just physical, it was elemental. When he didn’t want to be seen, not even the gods could find him.Still, I tried.We searched the mountain ridges at dawn, followed every wind current that carried even the faintest scent of frost. The Sentinels patrolled for hours. Curt said I was was

  • How to Catch a Mate   Chapter 166

    Haden The ceiling fan spun lazy circles above the bed, the steady hum filling the quiet room. Desiree’s breathing was soft beside me, her hair tangled over the pillow, the sheet half-slid down her hip. The scent of her perfume mixed with the faint musk of sex, sweet and heavy. It should’ve been peaceful. It wasn’t. Sleep wouldn’t come. My head wouldn’t stop replaying the last few weeks. Ashlyn’s face every time she said his name, Krav’s face every time I wanted to punch him. The two of them standing side by side like they’d always been written that way. I turned onto my back, one arm over my eyes. The bed creaked, Desiree shifted closer, tracing a finger down my chest. “Can’t sleep?” she murmured. “Couldn’t if I tried.” She propped herself up on one elbow. “You’re thinking about her again.” It wasn’t a question. I let out a slow breath. “You don’t have to say it like that.” “Well, you are,” she said, sitting up fully now, sheet falling to her waist. “You get this l
