The fire hadn’t touched her in hours, but it still lingered beneath Racheal’s skin like a heartbeat that didn’t belong to her.

She kept her hands clenched beneath her cloak as she walked through the Ashroot camp. Every step felt heavier. Every whisper louder. Wolves bowed their heads in respect now—but some did so with fear in their eyes.

Not fear of Veyrus.

Fear of her.

Kade and Jaxon stayed close, their presence grounding her. She’d asked them not to speak of what happened in the tent. The fire in her veins. The loss of control. Not yet.

Not until she understood what it meant.

A raven dropped from the sky as they approached the Assembly tent. It landed on Racheal’s shoulder, eyes burning red for only a second before blinking away.

A messenger.

She plucked the scroll from its claw and unrolled it.

Her breath caught.

> Come to the southern ridge. Alone. Midnight.

Bring no weapons. Or he dies.

There was no sigil. But the symbol scratched into the wax was unmistakable.

  • Mated Twice: A Wolf’s Dilemma   Chapter 55 – Fire at the Border

    The war table in Hollowdeep’s inner chamber glowed with shifting flame.Kaela stood at its head, the fire reflecting in her eyes like twin suns. Racheal was beside her, arms crossed, the tip of her blade tapping against her boot.Around them, their most trusted wolves gathered: Kade, Alec, Mira—bandaged but alert—and three leaders of the Sanctuaries now pledged to the twins’ cause.No one spoke for a moment.Then Kaela broke the silence.> “We strike first.”---The room didn’t erupt—but it shifted.The quiet gasp of unity.Mira stepped forward. “Where?”Kaela raised a hand.Flames danced across the table’s surface, revealing a hidden outpost tucked into the eastern highlands, near the base of the old Ironridge cliffs.It pulsed red on the map.“Ash Hollow,” she said. “Cassian’s fallback stronghold. Old world, underground, no moonlight. It’s where he trains his operatives.”Racheal added, “And it's where he’ll retreat once he realizes we’ve sealed our borders. He won’t go back to the

  • Mated Twice: A Wolf’s Dilemma   Chapter 54 – Messenger in the Snow

    Mira ran.Her boots slipped over iced roots and jagged stone, cloak tangled in wind and frost, lungs burning with every breath.But she didn’t stop.Because in her satchel, beneath runes of concealment, lay the sealed scroll—the one she stole from the Assembly war table.She didn’t understand all of it.But she understood this:> Cassian Vire was coming.And he wasn’t coming alone.---Snow lashed her face as she crossed the Bloodhowl Ravine, the narrow bridge creaking underfoot. Thunder cracked far off to the east—a storm chasing her shadow.She had a head start.But not by much.She knew Cassian. She studied him once, before the purge.The Beta they erased from the history books.The one who disappeared when the godflames were first sealed.He had no rank now.But he had power.And worse, he had followers.---By the time Mira reached the Hollowdeep border, her legs were shaking.Wolves howled in the distance—not Sanctuary wolves.She cursed under her breath.Then reached into her s

  • Mated Twice: A Wolf’s Dilemma   Chapter 53 – The Quiet Fang

    The Council chamber was empty.But the shadows were not.High Alpha Devrin of Hollowroot stood before the flickering crest of the Assembly, jaw clenched, eyes fixed on the crimson ember slowly dying in the ceremonial brazier.“They’ve made a mistake,” he muttered.Behind him, someone stepped from the dark.“Elide would say it’s evolution,” the voice rasped. “I say it’s infection.”Devrin didn’t turn. “You’re late.”The figure emerged—a tall male wolf with silver scars across his jaw, wearing no sigil, no rank, and no scent.He had burned that away long ago.Cassian Vire.Once Beta of the First Flame.Now, the Assembly’s quiet fang.“I’m always where I’m meant to be,” Cassian said.---They stood in silence for a moment, listening to the wind shift through the ancient vents carved into the Assembly dome.“Two flamebearers,” Devrin finally said. “Do you know what that means?”Cassian’s lips curled. “That you’re all cowards for letting them walk out alive.”“They rewrote the prophecy.”“

  • Mated Twice: A Wolf’s Dilemma   Chapter 52 – The Assembly’s Verdict

    Word of their survival traveled faster than fire.Within a day, ravens flew across the northern ridges.By nightfall, spy flares bloomed in the sky.And by morning, the Four Alpha Lords had called an emergency council in Vire Hollow.They were told Racheal had died in Hollowdeep.That Pyra had claimed the prophecy.That the flame was contained.They were wrong.---Racheal and her sister walked into the Assembly’s chamber with ash-streaked skin, matching marks still hot on their palms, and fire in their veins.Kade and Alec flanked them like twin sentinels.Mira carried a single scroll—the updated prophecy, rewritten in flame-ink.The room fell to stunned silence.Corin of Redfang stood slowly. “This… isn’t possible.”Vana of the Iron Tundra whispered, “You’re both alive?”Racheal’s gaze swept the room. “No. We’re not just alive. We’re awakened.”---The Assembly leaders had prepared for a threat. A weapon. A reckoning.They weren’t prepared for two wolves reborn.Lady Elide of Nights

  • Mated Twice: A Wolf’s Dilemma   Chapter 51 – Trial of the Split Flame

    The silence after the blade split was unbearable.One half pulsed in Racheal’s hand—its familiar warmth now heavier, conscious.The other half flickered gently in her twin’s grasp, as though waking from centuries of slumber.Around them, the fire in the chamber burned with twin-colored light—gold and crimson, dancing like breath and blood. Balanced. Waiting.“What now?” Kade whispered, his voice reverent.Pyra stepped forward, eyes alight with awe. “Now, the Trial begins.”---Beneath the Throne Chamber lay a hidden path—sealed until the moment the flame chose.Carved in bone and lined with scorched roots, the spiral passage opened with a sound like weeping stone. Racheal descended first, her sister behind her.Neither spoke.The bond between them buzzed silently, like two stars sharing gravity for the first time.Kade and Alec remained above. This was not a battle.It was a rite.---They reached the bottom.A chamber of obsidian and ancient flame.At its center: a molten pool ringed

  • Mated Twice: A Wolf’s Dilemma   Chapter 50 – The Flame Lies

    The entrance to Hollowdeep stood open.No guards.No chants.No resistance.Just firelight flickering along blackened stone and the soft sound of wind humming through deathless roots.Racheal stood at the threshold with Kade on her right, Alec at her back, Mira clutching the edge of her notes like a shield.“This feels wrong,” Alec said quietly.“It is wrong,” Kade muttered. “She wants you to walk in blind.”Racheal stared ahead, Ashweaver humming quietly on her back. The blade had not spoken in hours, as if waiting.She stepped forward.And Hollowdeep swallowed her whole.---The flames guided her downward.Spirals of heat. Paths carved by rituals older than memory. Murals of wolves consumed by light and fire and shadow.Each step she took, the cave grew warmer—not physically, but inside. Like her heartbeat no longer belonged to her.And then the hall opened.The Throne Chamber.A circle of fire-pools glowed around a single obsidian seat.Empty.At its base stood Pyra.Alone.Unarmed
