Her voice wasn’t raised, but every word struck like a blade.

“So that’s it? If I had been like you, If I had glowed or shifted or had a wolf hidden inside me, you would’ve loved me? That’s what it would’ve taken for me to be enough for you?”

He didn’t speak. He couldn’t. His silence gave her the answer she needed.

She laughed bitterly, the sound hollow.

“You’re not upset because you still love me,” she said, her voice like cracked glass. “You’re upset because he has me now. And I’m something more than what you thought I was.”

Her words landed hard. Evan’s lips parted to respond, but again, nothing came out.

Cassandra stepped back, her eyes narrowed with clarity, not tears.

“You’re just jealous,” she said. “Which makes no sense, Evan. You should be happy with your new lady. Isn’t

    Is that really all of it? she wondered. It feels like there’s still more he’s not saying. Like he’s holding something back.But she didn’t ask. She could see it in his eyes, how hard it had already been for him to say what he had. She didn’t want to push him. Not yet.So instead, she offered a small smile.The rest of the evening passed more gently.After all the heavy truths Darius had just shared, Cassandra could still feel the weight of them lingering in the room, but it was no longer suffocating. Instead of diving deeper into the pain of the past, they quietly let it go for the night, as if they both agreed, silently, that they needed something softer to hold onto for now.“So,” Cassandra said, tilting her head as she leaned back against the cushions. “What were you like as a teenager? Let me guess, brooding, serious, impossible to talk to?”Darius scoffed lightly, t

    “When war came, everything shifted,” he said. “Tensions with the northern packs escalated. My brother was no warrior. He never had the stomach for blood, or the instinct for battle.” He paused. “So he handed me the title. Declared me the better leader. Claimed the people trusted me more.”His voice lowered, bitter and flat. “But it wasn’t a gift. It was a death sentence.”Cassandra frowned. “What do you mean?”Darius’s lips pressed into a grim line. He stared at the fire, as if it held the truth in its flickering depths. “He sent me to die,” he said simply. “He named me Alpha so he wouldn’t have to be the one to fight. And if I died in battle? Well… then the threat would be gone. Clean hands. No blame.”Cassandra felt a chill crawl down her spine. “That’s... unforgivable.”He didn’t respond. The silence stretched betw

    A moment passed, filled only by the faint crackle of the candle flame. Then Darius’s tone shifted slightly, more serious, more deliberate.“Rowan has already processed the name change. From this moment forward, to everyone in the pack, you are Ashera.”Hearing it aloud made it feel real. Her new name. Her true name. She inhaled slowly, letting the syllables settle in her chest.“Thank you,” she whispered, fingers curling lightly around her wine glass. “I… I also think it’s time I see my adopted father. There’s so much I don’t understand. So many questions that only he might be able to answer. I used to avoid him, but now…” Her voice faltered slightly. “Now I need the truth.”Darius didn’t look surprised. “I assumed you’d say that. I’ve already asked Rowan to arrange a meeting. I know you haven’t spoken in years.”Cassandra blink

    Later that evening,After Nia had left, Cassandra made her way downstairs, her soft heels barely making a sound against the polished floors of Darius’s grand mansion. Soraya followed a few steps behind her, quiet and watchful as always.Cassandra's long dress flowed gently with every step she took, and she glanced down at herself, self-conscious. Was this too much for just dinner? she wondered, brushing her hand over the smooth fabric of her gown. Her hair had been styled with care, her makeup subtle but elegant. It was rare for her to dress up like this and rarer still to feel nervous about it.It’s just dinner, she told herself, but the flicker of doubt didn’t go away. But with him? Is anything ever really just dinner?As she turned the corner and stepped into the dining hall, the breath caught in her throat.The table had been set like something out of a romantic film. A single long candle burned betw

    Nia stared at her, eyes wide, one hand gripping the pillow like it was the only thing anchoring her to reality. “I’m sorry, what?”Cassandra couldn’t help it, she laughed.She lifted her hand slowly and let her wolf’s power flicker through her, just a sliver. Her pupils dilated, glowing with that haunting gold that only showed when her wolf was awake beneath the surface.Nia gasped and clutched her chest. “Girl, what the actual hell!”Cassandra blinked, letting the glow fade. “Still think I’m joking?”Nia was still frozen in place. “I… I don’t even know what to say. You’re telling me… you’re a werewolf. Like a full-on, moon-howling, shift-at-will, can-heal-fast type of werewolf?”Cassandra nodded.“And Darius…” Nia looked around the luxurious room again as if it were the backdrop of some royal drama. “So he&

    Elena’s eyes narrowed, her smile fading just a little.“That respect is a problem,” she said flatly. “And that’s where you come in. Evan might admire Darius, but his love for you is newer, fresher. Emotional bonds influence men far more than old loyalties do.”Lyria nodded slowly, thoughts churning in her head.So that’s the angle.She was supposed to be the voice whispering doubt into Evan’s ear. The one who reminds him that Darius stands between him and what should have been his future. The one who convinces him he deserves more. That he deserves the title. The throne. And her.Elena’s voice softened again, but her eyes stayed sharp.“He needs to see that Darius is not his friend. That even blood can become an enemy when it stands in your way. And you,” she added with meaning, “will become his reason to fight for that throne.”Lyria shifted slightly on the
