เข้าสู่ระบบ~ IrisTwo months later, but before that, everyone had reconciled both Duncan and kael.FLASHBACK!!It was late,one of those nights where your thoughts refuse to leave you alone.I didn’t expect him to be there.Kael.Standing on the balcony outside my room like he always found his way to me… no matter how much distance I tried to keep.“You’re avoiding me,” he said without turning.I sighed softly, stepping closer. “I’m not.”“You are.”I folded my arms slightly. “You shouldn’t be here.”He laughed under his breath. “That’s not new.”“Kael…”“Iris,” he cut in gently.He finally turned to face me,and just like that…Everything in me stilled.“I don’t want to fight you,” he said quietly.“I’m not fighting you.”“You are. Just not with words.”I swallowed.Because again… he wasn’t wrong.He took a step closer
Iris The healer’s room still smelled like herbs and ash.After the war, we were alive, all of us.FLASHBACK!! AFTER THE WAR.“I shifted, Mom!”Alice’s voice had burst into the room before the door even fully opened.I turned to her immediately, ignoring the sharp protest in my leg.“I saw you, baby.”She scoffed dramatically, flipping her hair back. “You didn’t see it well. My wolf was golden.”“We’ve heard,” Rowan, Mira, and Thorne said at the same time from behind her.I couldn’t help it,I smiled. Even Kael let out a soft chuckle.“Oh, some people are jealous,” Alice added, walking further in like she owned the place.She raised her hand and Kael,who had been unusually quiet, lifted his and high-fived her without even looking away from me.That’s when I noticed it, his eyes was still on me.And his hand…still gently stroking my hair.Like he didn’t even realize he was doing it.
IrisEverything was happening too fast to think.Too fast to breathe properly.Too fast to even feel fear the way I normally would.One moment, I saw Duncan being targeted, and Rowan was already there.He moved like instinct itself, throwing himself between Duncan and the attack.Steel clashed and bodies crashed, and Duncan was safe.“Rowan!” I shouted.But he didn’t even look back,Because another attacker came in from the side,aiming straight for him.My heart jumped into my throat.“Rowan!”And then….Kael.He came out of nowhere, Literally nowhere.One second the space beside Rowan was empty.The next,Kael was there.He didn’t hesitate, didn’t even blink. He Just grabbed the attacker and sent him flying into the wall with a force that shook the ground.Seriously? Wasn't he supposed to be upstairs, he wasn't healed yet. I should have locked him.
~ KAELI lay flat on the bed, staring at the ceiling like it had personally offended me.Everything hurt, so bad.My ribs.My chest. My pride.Mostly my pride.I can't believe I told iris, that I wanted to stop fighting for the Thorne.What was wrong with me? This wasn't me?I wouldn't leave a fight, for a boy I'm older than.But what was done was done.Some healer had already passed by earlier, muttering something about “rest” and “no movement,” like I was suddenly the type of man who listened to instructions.I wasn’t.I shifted slightly and immediately regretted it.A sharp pain shot through my side.I exhaled slowly.“…Rowan wins,” I muttered to myself.Then I let out a dry laugh.“Unbelievable. I’m actually lying here admitting Rowan wins.”I stared at my arm.“I’m not going to be Alpha,” I added, more to the room than
Chapter 221~ IrisAfter I had escorted Kael to the healer’s room, the noise from the hall felt distant… like it belonged to another world entirely.Up here, everything was quiet. The scent of herbs filled the air, mixed with blood and something faintly metallic. Healers moved around us, efficient, calm..used to chaos in ways I would never fully understand.But my focus stayed on him.On Kael.He sat on the edge of the bed, shoulders tense, jaw tight, like he was trying to convince his own body that nothing had happened.Typical.Stubborn boy.“Sit properly,” one of the healers said, pushing him lightly.“I am sitting,” he muttered.“Not like you want to run away.”That almost made me smile.I stayed near the doorway at first… watching. Observing, Like I always did.Like I didn’t care.But I did.And that was the problem.They started cleaning the woun
~ IRIS The moment Rowan and Kael stopped fighting…It didn’t feel like peace.It felt like a pause before something worse.Both of them were still breathing hard, still staring at each other like the argument wasn’t finished,it was just interrupted.And honestly… I didn’t know which one of them scared me more when they got quiet.Kael wiped blood from the corner of his mouth, eyes still sharp even in pain.Rowan stood a few steps away, chest rising slowly, like he was forcing himself not to continue.I was surprised at Rowan's behavior, this wasn't my son. He wasn't the reckless one.The tension between them wasn’t gone, It was just buried under silence.I stayed beside Kael without thinking.That alone annoyed me.But I didn’t move.Because he was still standing, still stubbornly pretending he wasn’t hurt.“You’re enjoying this too much,” I muttered at him.He gave a weak smirk
~ KyI knew Iris was drunk the moment I saw her.Not sloppy-drunk. Not loud.The dangerous kind. The kind where her eyes went soft and unfocused, where her walls slipped without her noticing.Alice noticed too. Everyone always did when it came to Iris. She drew attention without asking for it. With
~ AliceThe pack house smelled faintly of polished wood and leather, the faint musk of wolves lingering in the corners like a memory. Eunice was already at the head of the table, standing tall, radiating control as though she had been born to command. My father wasn’t here, and her confidence thriv
~ IrisThorne and I stepped outside, and that’s when I saw Alice and Ky standing nearby.They both looked worried.“Iris, where have you been?” Alice asked. “Ky told me you were drunk.”“I was,” I admitted. “But I was with Thorne.”They both turned to look at him.“Who is he?” Ky asked.“That’s Tho
Chapter 39~irisI sucked in a shaky breath as her words settled, heavy and poisonous. Anastasia straightened, pacing slowly in front of me like a lecturer savoring her point.“A father,” she said calmly, almost thoughtfully. “And his daughter.”She stopped and looked at me,her head titling.” Do yo
