Calder’s POV

Evelynn was weightless in my arms.

Not because she was small. She wasn’t. She was strength wrapped in skin, fire wearing flesh. But right now… now she felt like a dying ember I was terrified to breathe on.

Her head lolled against my shoulder, silver streaks of magic still flickering faintly beneath her skin.

“Upstairs,” I growled to the others. “First room that’s intact.”

Maddox nodded, jaw clenched hard enough to crack teeth. Jaxon kept scanning the halls, adrenaline shaking through him. Rafe hovered beside me like a shadow ready to rip open the world if I dropped her.

The packhouse was a skeleton around us. Walls charred, floors cracked, air thick with smoke and dust. But I kept moving, boots crunching over debris.

“Calder,” Rafe said low, voice tight. “Her pulse?”

“Still there.”

Barely.

My wolf pressed hard against the inside of my chest.

“She’s fading. Move faster.”

I swallowed a curse, adjusted my grip, and pushed up the stairs two at a time. Stone held under my fee

  • Marked By The Four   Chapter 76 - The Beta’s Betrayal

    Rafe POVThe room smelled of lavender and ash, like someone had tried to polish a ruin. I held my ground by the bed, every muscle coiled. The photograph still smoldered at the edge of my vision - Luna in a gown, perfect and naive - and I hated how human that made her, how much I wanted to protect that impossible, fragile thing.Aldric stood in the doorway like a ghost who’d found a place he’d been allowed to haunt. He didn’t look like a traitor; he looked like a man who had spent his life convincing himself he was not one and who finally belived it. Ash smeared his jaw, sleeves singed, eyes hollow with a hunger that felt like religion.My wolf told me to kill him. The feeling rang in my bones, a raw, black thing that wanted blood for scent. But I wasn’t an animal with a single action. I was an Alpha, and I had a Luna breathing under this roof who’d bled for these people whether she remembered it or not.“Step away from the bed,” I said, voice steady and hard as flint.Aldric didn’t mo

  • Marked By The Four   Chapter 74 - The Devil You Made

    Rafe’s POVVarrick moved faster than I thought a half-burned bastard could.He slammed into the witch mid-lunge, their bodies colliding in a burst of violet fire and smoke. The sound was wrong - like metal shrieking under pressure - and the magic exploded outwards, throwing me back into the wall. Stone cracked behind me.“Rafe!” Evelynn’s voice cut through the chaos, sharp and wild.“I’m good!” I grunted, rolling to my feet. Pain flared down my arm where her spell had grazed me, but I didn’t have time to care.Calder came in from the right, silver daggers drawn, slicing at the air where the witch had been a heartbeat ago. Maddox followed, shifting halfway - claws out, fangs flashing, fury incarnate.Jaxon’s voice hit through the mind link, a snarl behind every word. “What the hell is that thing?”“A witch who just outlived her welcome,” I answered.The flames in the room dimmed for a second, long enough for me to see Varrick. He was on his knees, smoke rising off his back, blood str

  • Marked By The Four   Chapter 73 - Burn the Sky

    Rafe POVThe world went white.For a heartbeat, I thought the packhouse was collapsing. The air shimmered, symbols of molten gold twisting through the smoke, and the scent - gods, the scent - was pure magic. Wrong, burning, electric. I raised an arm to shield my eyes and pushed through the doorway.“Evelynn!”She stood frozen in the middle of the room, her hands clenched around a blackened book that glowed like it wanted to eat the world. Across from her Varrick stood.My wolf surged in my chest, growling low. “That’s him. The rot. The one who broke her.”I felt it too - the rage, the bone-deep urge to tear him apart. But before I could move, Varrick lifted his head. His eyes burned wild, blood crusted on his jaw, and he was smiling.“She’s coming,” he whispered.The glow intensified. I barely had time to process before I felt the change. The air went colder. Heavy. And then a shadow flickered behind me.My wolf snarled, “Move!”I spun just as the light collapsed inward. Something s

  • Marked By The Four   Chapter 72 - Ash and Madness

    Evelynn POV He stood there. Alive.My breath caught, chest locking around a thousand memories that should’ve stayed buried.Varrick.His name was a curse. And yet here he was, leaning against a half-collapsed column like he hadn’t clawed his way out of the grave. His once-golden hair hung in filthy strands, his skin gray with soot and blood, and those eyes - those damned molten eyes - still burned with that same infuriating arrogance.For a moment, I couldn’t move. Couldn’t breathe. My wolf was dead silent in my head. Then, quietly, she whispered:“Kill him. Before he speaks.”My fingers itched toward the dagger strapped to my thigh.He saw the motion and smiled, slow and cracked. “Ah, there she is. The lovely Luna. Come back to finish what you started?”“I should,” I said, voice scraping low and sharp. “I should tear your throat out and end it properly this time.”Varrick chuckled, a dry, broken sound. “You always said that, didn’t you? So dramatic. But you didn’t. You came back.

  • Marked By The Four   Chapter 71 - Codex

    Evelynn POVThe packhouse loomed like a ghost in the half-light - half-ruin, half-memory. Its stone walls were blackened but unbroken, defiant even in death of . Smoke curled through shattered windows like restless spirits, and every step closer felt like walking into my own grave."This place remembers you", my wolf murmured, her voice a tremor inside me. "It remembers what you were."“I know,” I whispered, though the words burned my throat. “But I’m not her anymore.”The front doors groaned when I pushed them open. Inside, the air was thick - a mix of ash, damp soot, and something older. Regret, maybe. The scent of burned oak and blood hit me in waves, stirring fragments of the past I didn’t want. A flash of laughter. The echo of footsteps on marble floors. A younger version of me, standing proud beside a man I once thought I loved."Don’t go there", my wolf warned, low and sharp.“I’m not.” I lied.I stepped forward, boots crunching over shards of glass and debris. The foyer was
