~ Duncan

The door closed behind her.

The sound was quiet,barely anything,but it landed in my chest like weight.

I stood there longer than I should have.

Too long.

The house felt different the moment she left, like something essential had been pulled out of it. The air thinned. The silence stretched. Even the walls seemed to listen, waiting.

I clenched my jaw.

That was the problem

I had let her leave.

I moved toward the window, staring out into the night, my reflection staring back at me,compos

    ~ Kael 3 weeks laterThe training ground smelled like sweat, dust, and challenge.Perfect.I rolled my shoulders once as I stepped into the open field, the early sun casting long shadows across the packed earth. A few warriors were already there, sparring, laughing… living like nothing had changed.Like I hadn’t just walked into their world and shifted the balance.Pathetic.“Who’s first?” I asked casually, cracking my neck.Silence.Then murmurs…They were hesitant.Good.A tall one stepped forward eventually,broad shoulders, confident stance.“Name’s Jace,” he said.I nodded once. “Kael.”He smirked. “Yeah… we know.”Of course you do.He moved first…Fast. Not bad.But not enough.I sidestepped easily, grabbed his arm mid-swing, twisted…Boom.He hit the ground hard, air knocked clean out of his lungs.Gasps.

    ~ Duncan The moment I heard his voice from the other side of the door…Something in me snapped.Not anger, Not just anger.. .Something deeper… Something older.“Can I come in… or are we still pretending I’m not part of this family?”Family.The audacity of that word coming from him.My jaw clenched so tightly I could feel the strain in my skull. My wolf stirred beneath my skin, restless, irritated… ready.U know I shouldn't be feeling this way but he has passed boundaries and I don't see him as my son again.“Stay here,” I told Iris, my voice low.But of course… She didn’t listen.Her hand wrapped around my wrist, firm.“No.”I looked down at her grip, then back at her face.Stubborn and Calm at the same time. Another knock,Slower this time…Intentional.Like he knew exactly what he was doing.I exhaled sharply and pulled my arm free, stepping toward the door.

    ~ Iris The moment the door to our room shut behind us, the tension snapped.Not cracked.Snapped.Duncan didn’t even give me time to breathe before he turned on me, his eyes dark, jaw tight, chest rising and falling like he was barely holding himself together.“You didn’t tell me he was staying this long.”His voice wasn’t loud at first,but it carried weight.Danger.I blinked, caught off guard by the sharpness in it.“I told you he was here,” I replied, trying to keep my tone steady. “You didn’t exactly give me time to explain every detail before hanging up.”“That’s not the same thing, Iris.”His voice rose now.“You made it sound like he just showed up, not like he moved in and started taking over my house.”“Our house,” I corrected immediately.That made his eyes flash.“Don’t do that,” he warned.“Then don’t act like I invited him,” I shot back. “He walke

    ~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

    Chapter 34~Iris I lay awake staring at the ceiling, counting the cracks like they might rearrange themselves into answers if I looked long enough.They didn’t.The bond was still there, quiet now, like an old bruise you forget about until you roll the wrong way. It pulsed beneath my ribs, dull an

    ~iris I didn’t sleep again. I thought I could be over it. I lay awake until dawn, staring at the ceiling while the room slowly shifted from black to grey, my chest aching in a way that felt physical,like something had been carved out of me and left hollow. Every time I closed my eyes, the video

    ~iris One week.That was all it had been,seven days tucked away inside walls that smelled like safety and power. Seven days where fear didn’t follow me into my sleep. Seven days of quiet laughter, lingering looks, and moments I knew I wasn’t supposed to get attached to.But I did.The suitcase at
