Lunar Lake 83
83 (Tyler’s POV) The study was dim, the curtains drawn shut to block out the late morning sun. I sat at my desk, the weight of Marcus’s revelations still pressing down like iron on my shoulders. The more I unraveled Jaxson's plans, the clearer it became this wasn’t just about power, territory, or revenge. This was darker. Twisted. Unnatural. And I hated what I was about to do. I stared at the phone for a long time before I picked it up. I didn’t want to make the call. Not because I didn’t trust Carson I did, as much as I trusted anyone outside the pack but because asking for help meant admitting this was bigger than me. Than all of us. It rang once before he answered. “Tyler,” Carson said, tone wary. “Did something happen to Kate?” “No. She’s safe. This is about Jaxson.” I didn’t waste time. “He’s not just rebuilding a pack. He’s changing it. We’ve had reports of people coming back from his territory… altered. Like they’re being hollowed out.” There was silence on the other end.
Lunar Lake 82
82 (Camerin’s POV) The moon hung high, casting silver light across the stretch of neutral forest that separated our land from what was left of Jaxson’s territory. Wind rustled through the trees like whispers. I stood still, one hand resting on the hilt of my knife, the other buried deep in my coat pocket. I wasn’t here to fight but I wasn’t stupid enough to come unarmed either. Marcus arrived late. His scent hit me before I saw him burned pine and stress. He emerged from the shadows like a ghost, thinner than I remembered, the sharp edges of his face more pronounced beneath the low light. He didn’t look like a Beta anymore. He looked hunted. “You’re alone,” I said, more observation than question. He nodded. “Couldn’t risk anyone seeing me. Jaxson has eyes… everywhere.” I motioned him closer. “You said in your message people were disappearing.” Marcus leaned against a tree, breathing heavy, like every word was a weight. “It started with the weak. The injured. Wolves who didn’t f

81 (Kathryn’s POV) Camerin met me at the door with that look on his face, the one that meant something was about to happen and I wasn’t going to like it. “There’s a girl,” he said bluntly. “From Jaxson’s pack. Her name is Hana. Claims she wants to defect.” “Where is she now?” “Being held. Searched. She asked for you.” “For me?” I frowned. “She said… ‘the Luna sees.’ That’s all.” Camerin’s eyes narrowed. “You don’t have to go. Tyler and I can handle this.” I shook my head. “No. If she came here for help, I need to see her. And if she’s lying, I need to see that too.” Tyler was already waiting in the holding room when I arrived, standing near the door, arms crossed. His whole presence was alert, but tense. He didn’t say anything, just gave me a look that said, Be careful. The girl Hana sat at the far end of the room, her wrists resting on the table, her eyes darting around until they found me. She looked young. Tired. Worn too thin for someone her age. When I stepped inside, s

80 (Kathryn’s POV) The training field was quiet now, the sun beginning to sink behind the trees in hues of amber and violet. I sat on the edge of the platform, my staff resting across my knees. Every inch of me ached, but it was a satisfying ache, the kind that meant progress, not punishment. Celia approached with two bottles of water and a soft smile. She tossed one to me before sitting down beside me, her long skirt pooling around her legs. “You looked like hell,” she said casually, bumping her shoulder against mine. I snorted. “That good, huh?” She gave a soft laugh. “No, I mean it. You looked like hell and you didn’t back down. Not once.” I cracked the bottle open and drank. The cool water helped, but my hands still trembled slightly from the effort. “I’m trying to earn my place. Not just be Tyler’s mate. Not just be… protected.” “You’ve already earned it,” Celia said, her tone quiet but fierce. “What are you doing now? That’s not about proving anything. It’s about preparin

79 (Tyler’s POV) The knock came just after sunrise. It was too precise three short raps, evenly spaced. Not urgent like a warrior reporting for duty. Not casual like a servant. I was already on my feet when the door creaked open and Carson stepped in, holding a sealed envelope between two fingers like it might bite him. “You have a problem,” he said flatly. “Or maybe we both do.” Kate sat up behind me, wrapping the sheets around herself. “What is it?” Carson walked to the desk and dropped the envelope there. It was black. The wax seal is blood red. Jaxson’s pack symbol, warped and jagged, stamped into it like a scar. “No one saw who delivered it,” Carson said. “It was left on my office desk. No scent. No sound. Like it just appeared out of thin air.” I already hated it. I broke the seal. Inside was a single piece of thick paper, the ink so dark it looked like it had bled from the page itself. You brought her into this world. You marked her as yours. You made her a target. S
Lunar Lake 78
78 (Kathryn’s POV) I found them in Carson’s war room, an actual war room. A long table with maps, digital screens showing movement reports, and ranked wolves stationed around the perimeter, all watching closely as Tyler and Carson leaned over a marked-up map of the bordering territories. They both looked up when I walked in. Tyler’s eyes found mine instantly. He didn’t smile, but something in his shoulders eased. He stepped around the table to meet me halfway, stopping just short of touching me. “How’s Scott?” “Alive,” I said. “But just barely.” Tyler nodded. “I’m sorry.” Carson cleared his throat gently. “He was lucky. One of our patrols happened to be sweeping that part of the road. The truck was upside down, crushed. If they’d been five minutes later…” “I know,” I cut in, my voice steadier than I felt. “Thank you, Alpha. For getting him out.” Carson’s gaze sharpened, assessing me differently than before. I wasn’t the shaky human mate in the corner anymore. I felt it, too. S
