~ Alice POV ~

I didn’t mean to go to the library.

That’s what I told myself later.

I was just walking.

Clearing my head.

Avoiding the Moon altar construction that felt like a public countdown to my humiliation.

The east wing was quiet at night. Most wolves avoided it. Too many old council records. Too many ghosts of decisions that shaped bloodlines.

That’s when I heard voices.

Low.

Familiar.

    ~ Iris POV8:00 p.m.I stood before the mirror, fastening the silver clasp of my necklace behind my neck. The moonstone pendant rested lightly against my collarbone, cool against my skin.Tonight’s meeting had been called by Elder Varis himself. When an elder summoned the council under a full moon, it was never for something trivial.And as Luna, my presence was not optional.“Mom! How do I look?”Alice burst into the room, spinning in a circle. Her gold gown flared around her like sunlight caught in motion.I crouched down and gently held her chin, studying her.“You look… beautiful,” I said softly. “I’m jealous.”She giggled proudly.Just then Rowan barged into the room, chewing loudly with a mouth full of pancakes.“Mom!”Alice immediately folded her arms.“Rowan! Go get dressed.”God.She reminded me so much of my best friend. The same stubborn c

    ~Iris Blackwood Ten years had passed since the world tried to rip us apart. Ten years since blood had stained the clearing, since Alice had saved me at the cost of her own life. Ten years since Duncan had claimed me under the full moon, binding me as his Luna, mate, and partner in a legacy I had never imagined I would inherit. Ten years since I saw Eunice blackwood.The estate was quiet now, a sprawling sanctuary tucked between rivers and hills, far removed from the shadows that had once stalked us. Peace hummed through the air in a way that felt fragile yet exhilarating. The kind of peace you held your breath for, aware that even a whisper of movement in the wrong direction could shatter it.The twins, Alice II and Rowan were six years old, and they were already uncontainable forces of nature. Alice II, fiery, loud, and unapologetically dominant, chased her brother across the gardens, her small hands attempting to shove him while laughing. Rowan, qu

    ~ Iris POV ~“Congratulations, Iris.”Her voice was smooth.Too smooth.Like silk wrapped around a blade.For a second, I couldn’t breathe.Eunice.Standing there as if she hadn’t vanished months ago. As if the world hadn’t burned and rebuilt itself in her absence.She looked… unchanged.Same dark hair cascading over her shoulders. Same sharp eyes that missed nothing. Same calculating calm.Only now, there was something else in her gaze.Interest.I swallowed slowly, forcing my spine straight.“Eunice,” I said evenly.The cashier shifted awkwardly between us, sensing something she couldn’t name.Eunice’s eyes drifted down.To my stomach.Her smile widened slightly.“So it’s true,” she murmured. “Twins.”My hands instinctively rested over my belly.Protective.Always protective now.“Yes.”

    ~ Iris POVThe estate was quiet that evening. The full moon hung low over the hills, silver light spilling into the gardens, casting long shadows over the stone paths. I sat on the veranda, my hands resting on my stomach, feeling the twins shift gently within me. Their tiny movements reminded me that life had a way of continuing, even after pain, even after loss.Duncan approached silently, as he always did, his presence commanding without being loud. He stopped behind me, hands resting lightly on my shoulders, and I leaned back into him instinctively. The scent of him,leather, cedar, and that unshakable Alpha essence,made my heart beat faster.“You’ve been quiet,” he murmured, voice low, warm.“I’m just… thinking,” I admitted, glancing up at the moon. “About everything. About us. About the pack. About the twins.”He smiled faintly, brushing a loose strand of hair behind my ear. “You don’t have to carry everything alone.”

    ~ Iris POVThe months that followed Alice’s sacrifice were the longest I had ever endured. Every day, every night, I felt her absence like a wound that refused to heal. I watched Duncan struggle to recover, watched his body broken, his chest scarred from the wolfsbane and poisons that had nearly ended him. The pack healers worked tirelessly, their chants, herbs, and silver remedies keeping him alive when even I had begun to fear he wouldn’t make it.I sat by his side for weeks, refusing to leave. Every breath he drew was a relief, every blink a small victory. I held his hand, pressed my forehead to his chest, whispered encouragements I wasn’t even sure he could hear over the pounding of my own fear.“Stay with me,” I begged one night as the firelight flickered across his face. “You promised. You have to stay.”His eyes fluttered open, glowing faintly even in weakness, and he reached for me, voice hoarse, “I’m not leaving… not w

    ~ Iris POVThe world went silent.Not completely, not truly, but enough that the screaming, the shifting, the chaos around the clearing felt distant, like it belonged to someone else.All that remained was her.Alice.Her body fell into my arms with a weight I wasn’t prepared for. Warm. Fragile. Broken. Blood bubbling from her lips, staining her skin, her dress, her innocence, all mingled with the scent of iron and fear.“No… no, no, no,” I whispered, shaking violently, my arms tightening around her. My fingers dug into her shoulders, my heart thrumming like a war drum in my chest, threatening to shatter from the intensity of it all.“I… I’ve got you,” I croaked, tears streaming freely now, hot and unrelenting, soaking her hair, her cheeks, my own hands. “I won’t let you…”But she coughed, weak, broken, and I felt the heat of her life slipping away. The poisons,wolfsbane, silver, whatever Cassian

    Iris' POVThe cell was cold.Not just the metal bench or the concrete walls but the kind of cold that crept into my bones and stayed there. I sat with my knees pulled to my chest, arms wrapped tightly around myself like that could somehow keep everything from falling apart.I couldn’t believe this

    ~ Alpha Duncan“Thorne, wait here!” I ordered.The night air followed me as I strode into the hospital, each step measured. I passed the nurses’ station and one of them looked up, smiling and twisting her hair nervously.“Good evening, sir… how may I help you?” she asked.“I’m looking for a boy. He

    ~Alpha Duncan I ended the call and stared at my phone for a long moment before setting it down.Eunice was angry. I could hear it beneath her carefully chosen words. Good. Let her be. Anger made people careless and Eunice was dangerous only when she felt in control.I remember when we were little,

    ~AliceI swallowed hard, the words sticking in my throat like glass shards.Iris stood there, arms crossed loosely, waiting for whatever I had to say.I stared at my plate, fork pushing noodles around in circles.“I don’t have a good excuse,” I said finally, voice barely above a whisper. “There isn
