I opened my eyes, the silver glow of my laptop illuminating the dark den. A notification pinged—a message from Collins. I didn't scan the words immediately; instead, I checked the global pack clock. It was eight in the evening in Mysticfall, which meant the sun was just rising over the Skydrivee ice.

I tapped the link.

[I am repaying the credits. I don't have the full sum available immediately, so I will settle the debt in installments.]

I knew this was coming. Collins had the pride of a lone w

    “You’re absolutely pathetic, Ethan!” I said, looking at him with a sharp, defiant grin. I was vibrating with a mix of adrenaline and annoyance. “Did you really think a little ice-scouting trip and ghosting my calls would work? You forced me to hunt you down at your own den. Between the two of us, you’re the one acting like a lost pup!”The cold amusement on Ethan’s face died instantly. The shadows in the room seemed to lean toward him. “Is this how you intend to ask for my favor, Collins? With insults?”“I didn’t come here to beg,” I countered, tilting my head back. “Don't let the weight of your crown go to your head. Just because you control the Kingdom’s ice doesn't mean you get to dictate who breathes and who doesn't. If you don't call off the hounds and restore Charles’s career by dawn, I’m going back on the stream.”I paused, watching the predatory amber flare in his eyes.“I don't think even a High Alpha would be foolish enough to blacklist me,” I added, leaning in.He wouldn't.

    I stood center stage in a plunging V-neck silk tunic that didn't just hint at my frame—it showcased the curve of my abdomen for the entire Kingdom of Valeria to see. My pup was no longer a secret.Standing right behind me was Charles Whitaker. He was meticulously smoothing the heavy train of my formal gear, his presence a silent wall of support.The digital viewership for the Yaya Indus stream spiked instantly, the numbers climbing like a wolf on a scent trail.The comments section was a blur of motion. [When Yaya Indus was facing a hostile takeover, Charles was the one who held the line on the ice! Now Charles is being blacklisted and Collins Parker is lancing the wound! This bond is legendary!][I’m marking every brand that tore up Charles’s contract. I’m burning my gear! I’m a Yaya Indus loyalist from this breath forward!][Charles is absolute fire! No one exiles our star! No one!][Wait... is that a bump? Collins is carrying! Who sired that pup? Is it Charles?!][Can't be Charles.

    I logged back into the mainframe at Yaya Indus and slammed the door to my office. Moments later, Chloe Bennett tapped twice and slipped inside without waiting for a growl of permission."Ethan, I heard you dragged Collins Parker into a medical exam today. How did that mess turn out?" Chloe’s voice was like velvet over gravel. Then, her eyes snagged on the ultrasound scan sitting on my mahogany desk.She snatched the image before I could block her. I watched her pupils contract as she stared at the pup’s silhouette—it was a mirror image of my own bone structure. I could smell the sharp, metallic scent of her jealousy from across the room."This little pup is a carbon copy of you, Ethan. A true Alpha heir, isn't he?" Chloe forced a smile that didn't reach her cold eyes.I stood up and snatched the scan back, sliding it into a secure drawer. "What are you doing in my office, Chloe?""It’s Noah’s first shift at Silvercrest Holdings. I thought I’d give you the heads-up." She kept that holl

    “I’ve been hearing whispers around the rink that he’s gone into total hibernation. Hasn't laced up his skates or left his den in days.” Natalie couldn't suppress a sharp, jagged laugh as she poked at her meal. “Honestly, Collins, the rage is gone. Seeing a High Alpha from a lineage as ancient and loaded as the Carters feeling more pathetic than a runt? It’s pure comedy. I love it.”I wanted to share her amusement, but my chest felt like it was packed with dry ice. Still, seeing Natalie’s spirit return brought a ghost of a smile to my face.“Anyway, enough about that beast,” Natalie said, leaning in. “How’s the inner wolf holding up? You get the lab results from Dr. Harris in a week, right? I literally woke up in a cold sweat dreaming about that file last night.”“I’m managing,” I told her. “I’m eating enough for a pack and sleeping like I’ve been hit with a tranquilizer. No pain, no shifting issues.”I’d already steeled myself for the worst-case scenario. If the pup’s genetics were un

    "Get the kids out of here," I whispered to JESS, my voice sounding hollow even to my own ears.I watched JESS usher Charles and Isabella toward the back of the den, their small boots thumping against the wood. Once the heavy doors clicked shut, the silence of the house rushed in, heavy and suffocating. I sank onto the edge of my bed, my palms flat against my stomach. I could still see the glimmer in Ethan’s eyes before he stormed out—the look of a wolf who had been gutted. I hated that about myself; no matter how deep the scars between us ran, the moment his armor cracked, my own defenses turned to dust.A wolf with a heart of ice like his doesn't let a tear fall unless his soul is literally tearing in two.I held my breath, the silence ringing.He had lost his mind just because I was holding a card for Victor Brooks. What would happen if I actually moved on? If I took another mate into my territory? Ethan was out there parading Chloe Bennett around the rink like she was the new Luna,

    "I'm coming for you! Just hang on—seeing you like this is killing me!" Victor’s voice cracked over the line as he sprinted toward his truck.He was dying to howl at Ethan and demand to know why he’d laid a hand on a pack member, but he couldn't bring himself to break the connection with Natalie. In all the seasons they’d run together, he had never heard her soul sound this shattered.Thirty minutes later, the headlights of his truck caught her hazard lights gleaming against the dark edge of the Mysticfall highway."Victor!" Natalie collapsed against his chest the moment he opened her door, her voice a ragged whisper, worn thin by the grief. "Sever the bond with him! I never want to scent him or see his shadow in our territory again!"Victor pulled her tight, using his sleeve to catch the tears staining her face. "Anything you want, Nat. Just breathe. You’re going to make yourself sick."Natalie leaned into his warmth, her breath hitching in jagged rhythms."weren't you supposed to be
