Marked By The Four Chapter 98 - We Are Not Ready
Maddox POVThe walk back should’ve taken ten minutes. It took three.Because the moment the smoke cleared and the packhouse came into view, every muscle in my body locked.“What the actual fuck,” Jaxon breathed beside me.Rafe slowed to a stop, eyes wide, expression caught between awe and suspicion. “It was burned. Completely. Maddox, you saw it.”“I did.” I scrubbed a hand through my hair, still sticky with enemy blood. “Unless we all collectively hallucinated charred walls and caved ceilings, something happened.”Something big.Because the packhouse - the same half-ruined corpse we’d been sleeping in last night - now stood tall. Clean stone. Repaired beams. Windows intact. Like the fire had never touched it.Magic.And a shitload of it.Calder was the only one not with us. Which meant-Rafe snarled. “If something happened to him-”“Easy,” I muttered, tightening my grip on my blade. “Their scents are inside.”Not distressed. Not fighting. More like… intense. Focused. And Evelynn’s sc
Marked By The Four Chapter 97 - See Me
The world yanked sideways. Not painfully. Just suddenly. One heartbeat I was staring at Elara. The next I stood in a forest clearing.Night air. Wet moss. The faint burn of old ward magic.A place I’d never seen. Except… my wolf murmured, “No. We have been here.”A small stone cottage crouched under twisted oaks, half-hidden by thorns so thick they looked grown, not planted. Moonlight dripped over its roof like silver blood.A secret place. A safehouse.I took one step forward and the vision snapped sharply into focus. A woman stood at the door. - Not Elara. Not the witch. - My mother.My heart tripped. She looked younger than I remembered. Fierce. Determined. Holding a tiny bundle wrapped in a moon-patterned cloth.Holding me.Her voice was a whisper, breaking with fear. “Hide her. Please. She cannot be found.”A man continued, deep and sorrowful. My father.“She’ll come for the child,” he said. “She always comes for Thornborne blood.”My mother pressed her forehead against the cotta
Marked By The Four Chapter 96 - Unmark Me
Evelynn POVElara’s fingers hovered over my ribs, never touching, but somehow still brushing against every nerve ending I owned.Her magic felt like static lightning - sharp, silvery, humming just beneath my skin. Even Calder’s wolf leaned forward from across the room, suspicious but fascinated.I exhaled, closing my eyes for half a heartbeat. “Okay. Let me make sure I’ve got this straight.”Elara’s lips twitched. “Go on, Luna.”“Right,” I said, sitting up a bit despite her pushy witch-hand trying to keep me lying down. “So - when I touched that witch… I destroyed her body.”“Yes.”“But apparently I did not destroy all of her. Because I also accidentally freed her shadow.”“Mmhmm.”“And her shadow,” I continued, raising a brow, “is now somehow stuck to me.”“Correct.”“And she works for a twisted death goddess called the Hollow Mother who - what?- wants me for reasons we haven’t figured out yet?”Elara nodded calmly, as if I’d just recited a grocery list.I threw up a hand. “Oh, and l
Marked By The Four Chapter 95 - Magic
Evelynn POV The moment the front doors shut behind the boys, the packhouse fell into a strange, humming quiet.Too quiet.Elara rolled her shoulders once, the air shimmering faintly around her. Calder stood between us like a silent, broad-shouldered guardian, but even he couldn’t pretend he wasn’t curious - or wary - of the witch’s power.Elara inhaled deeply. “Alright,” she said, her voice shifting - not louder, but heavier. “Let’s get to work. There is no time to waste.”Before I could ask what she meant, she stepped forward and pressed her palm against the nearest burned wall.Calder stood beside me like a silent wall of muscle and tension. His hand hovered near my back without touching - torn between giving me space and wrapping me in his arms. His wolf was so close to the surface I could feel its heat.I didn’t miss the way he watched Elara either. - Not with lust. But with wary affection. Familiarity.The same way someone might watch an old friend they trust to walk straight
Marked By The Four Chapter 94 - Debt
Maddox POVI hit the ground hard, air punched from my lungs. A blade pressed to my throat. I snarled, half-shifted, ready to rip the one who attacked me apart.Then the voice hit me. It was low. Female. And full of venom.“Tell your Luna…” she breathed into my ear, hot and furious “…that debts always come due.”The blade dug in just enough to draw blood. And then she vanished. The bitch disappeared into the trees like she’d never been there at all.Rafe reached me in a full sprint. “Maddox! Who the hell was that?!”I wiped the blood from my throat, fury boiling so hot it tasted like lightning.I wiped the smear of blood from my neck - it stung - and forced myself upright. “Don’t know,” I growled. “But she sure as hell knows Eve.”Jaxon spun a full circle, inhaling deep, muscles coiled. “Her scent - shit. It’s already gone. Like she covered it.”Or like she wasn’t entirely… wolf.My wolf rumbled, tail low, hackles raised. “Danger. Wrong. She carries death on her skin.”Rafe’s gaze sna
Marked By The Four Chapter 93 - Red Moon, Red Warnings
Maddox POVThe moment Calder stepped outside to greet Elara, the sky shifted.The moon - normally silver-white even on its worst nights - bled into a deep, unnatural crimson. A heavy, low hum rippled across the land, and every wolf in a fifty-mile radius felt it. My own wolf lifted his head and snarled, hackles up.Rafe stiffened beside me. Jaxon halted mid-step, eyes locked on the treeline. The air dropped ten degrees.“Red moon.” Jaxon muttered, voice low. “That’s never good.”“No shit,” I growled.Elara’s arrival had barely settled the dust, and already the night was deciding to test us.We stood outside the ruined packhouse, watching the forest line where shadows prowled between the trees - too many footsteps, too many scents. Not friendly.Rafe’s nostrils flared. “Rogue pack. North ridge.”“No,” I corrected, my voice dropping darker. “Three packs. And they’re not here to negotiate.”Jaxon cracked his neck, grin sharp and vicious. “Let me guess. Word spread that Varrick is dead,
