~ Duncan

I didn’t go down with Thorne.

Not at first.

I stayed back in the corridor above the cells, hands resting on the cold stone railing, listening to the faint echo of his footsteps as he descended. The pack prison sat deep beneath the compound, carved into bedrock and warded with old magic wards I had reinforced myself years ago. No one screamed down there anymore. No one needed to.

Anger would’ve rushed me there once.

Years ago, I would’ve stormed in.

Now, I waited.

Because some confront

    ~Duncan The moment my phone rang, I knew something was wrong.Not the usual kind of wrong.Not territory disputes or minor council disagreements.No.This felt… heavier.I glanced at the screen, jaw tightening when I saw the name.Elder Varis.I answered immediately.“Speak.”There was no greeting,.no delay. Just silence for a second… then…“You need to come back.”My grip on the phone tightened.“Why? I haven't finished the task here.”A pause.Then…“ you haven't been told? He’s here.”I didn’t need clarification.Didn’t need explanation.Because there was only one he that could make Varis sound like that. And iris had called me days ago.My chest tightened. “…Kael.”“Yes.”The word landed like a weight.I looked out the window of the car, the passing trees blurring into nothing as my thoughts sharpened.

    ~Iris The council chamber felt suffocating,Not because of the heat,Not because of the candles flickering too brightly against the stone walls.But because everything lately…Everything felt like it was slipping just slightly out of my control.I stood at the head of the table well, beside it technically,papers laid out, voices overlapping, elders speaking one after another about territories, alliances, and minor disputes that suddenly felt so… irrelevant.Because none of this was the real problem.The real problem had a name.And he was currently somewhere in this house.Breathing.Walking.Existing.Annoying me.“You’re not listening, Luna,” one of the elders said carefully.I blinked, pulling myself back. “I am.”Mira, standing slightly behind me, leaned in just enough to whisper, “You’re thinking about him.”I didn’t even look at her. “Be quiet.”

    ~Kael Three days.Three days in this house and I already understood one thing very clearly…Nothing here was simple.Especially not her.I leaned against the doorway of the kitchen, arms folded, watching them before either of them noticed me.Iris Rivera stood by the counter, hair slightly messy like she hadn’t slept properly. There were faint shadows under her eyes, but she still carried herself like a queen.Composed,Controlled and Dangerous.And then there was Mira Calder,laughing, relaxed, like none of this chaos bothered her.Interesting.Very interesting.“I barely slept,” Iris was saying, frustration lacing her voice. “Because Kael keeps throwing these late-night parties.”I smirked slightly.So she noticed. Good.Mira laughed,Of course she did.“Why are you laughing?” Iris snapped.“Because,” Mira said, still amused, “he has no friends here. He’s doing it i

    ~Iris povIt had been three days.Three very long, very exhausting days.And Duncan still wasn’t back.I had honestly thought,hoped,that the moment I told him his first son had shown up and was already causing problems, he would drop everything and return immediately.But no.Of course not.So here I was.Stuck.In the same house,With a man who walked like he owned the place, talked like he feared nothing, and looked at me like I was both his enemy and… something else I didn’t want to think about.I sighed as I stepped into the kitchen, the faint smell of toast and coffee wrapping around me.Mira was already there,Of course she was.She stood by the counter, casually flipping toast like she didn’t have a care in the world.“Good morning, Luna,” she said, handing me a cup of coffee.“Hey, Mira,” I replied, taking it. “What are you doing here? You slept over?”

    ~kael.I didn’t slam the door.I wanted to.But I didn’t.Instead, I closed it slowly behind me, the quiet click echoing louder than any noise I could have made.Control.That’s what Eunice taught me.Control before chaos. Always.Still…My jaw tightened as I walked down the hallway, my hands flexing slightly at my sides.I could still feel it.Her.The heat of her skin when I pinned her to the wall. The defiance in her eyes when she should have been afraid. The way she stood there after I threw her,like it didn’t matter.Like I didn’t matter.I let out a low breath, dragging a hand through my hair.“That woman…” I muttered under my breath.She wasn’t what I expected.Not even close.I thought I’d walk in, see someone soft. Manipulative. Maybe even desperate to hold onto power.Instead?I got… that.Someone

    ~ Iris “Kael… what do you want?”My voice came out sharper than I intended, but I didn’t care. I was tired,mentally, emotionally,and he had walked in here like a storm I didn’t ask for.He didn’t answer immediately.Instead, he moved past me like he owned the room, like I was the intruder, and dropped onto the bed with careless ease.“Sit,” he said, gesturing lazily.I blinked.Then scoffed.“I don’t want to. Thanks,” I replied, folding my arms across my chest.He didn’t even look offended.“Suit yourself.”He reached for the glass on the table,my glass,and took a slow sip like he had every right to it.The audacity.“Iris Rivera,” he said after a moment, his gaze finally lifting to me. “You’re even prettier in person.”I didn’t respond.Not to that.Not to him.He smirked slightly, like my silence amused him.“So,” he continued, swirling the wine in the glass, “I’m guessing you want me gone.”I stayed quiet.“You hate me. You don’t want me here.” He leaned back, stretching slightly.

    ~irisThe dorm room was quiet when I finally stepped in, dragging my bag behind me. I thought Alice would be here. My scarf and coat were still wrapped tight, lingering smells of coffee and the only city clinging to me. I dropped my bag near the bed and collapsed onto the edge, pulling my phone ou

    ~ iris Ky walked down the aisle slowly, her boots quiet against the floor. She stopped at the empty seat two rows ahead of me,then hesitated.Her head tilted slightly.Her eyes met mine again.This time, they widened just a fraction.Recognition.My breath caught.No.It couldn’t be.She smiled.N

    ~iris I felt him before I saw him. The air shifted like the mansion itself straightened in attention. My heart skipped as his presence flooded the space, calm and commanding, wrapping around me through the bond. I turned just as Duncan stepped into the hallway, removing his coat. His sharp eyes
