At Sinclair’s question, I furrowed my eyebrows, wondering about the edge in his voice, an edge that was barely there.

I didn’t think he was even aware of it.

We had both agreed that personal questions were off the bet. That had been the reason I hadn’t asked him about the thriving issue between him and Raul.

Yet, here he was talking about me and Raul like we had something going, like he was curious about knowing what exactly we had going on.

I ignored him.

“I want to go to college when I’m done here, or rather I want to use it as an avenue for exploring the world, before taking up my responsibility. But my parents want me to take up my responsibility after school.”

I stopped my movement then and looked at Sinclair in shock.

He had answered my question, the first I had asked him earlier, after my registration at the principal’s office.

I had asked him what his plans were after school, and he had told me that he didn’t owe me an answer.

My ignorance of his questions must have no

    SAGEI knew the fight wouldn't happen the moment I heard the bell toll.The sound was deep, ancient—a slow, heavy clang that rolled through the air and seeped into my bones. It pulled me out of the kind of sleep that had no dreams, just exhaustion. For a moment, I didn't know where I was. The ceiling above me blurred, shifting between the witches' white stones and the darker ceilings of the pack's quarters. Then Isla's voice came hammering against the door."Sage! Wake up! Something's happening!"I groaned, rolling over and burying my face in the pillow. "Go away."But Isla wasn't the kind to take hints. Her knocking only grew louder, more desperate. "Didn't you hear the bell? The whole pack is on fire. You need to come out—""Then go," I muttered, eyes still closed. "Go and don't come back."Truthfully, my body felt like it had been torn apart and glued back together. The teleportation from the witches' territory had drained more energy than I'd expected. I'd barely managed to throw

    SAGEThe warmth of the fire filled the center hut, wrapping around me like an old memory. I leaned back against the soft sofa, a slow smile pulling at my lips as I let my gaze wander around the space that had once been my haven. The walls were still etched with faint symbols Diana and I had drawn when we were being magically adventurous. The air smelled faintly of herbs and smoke, with the soft murmur of evening insects seeping through the cracks in the window slats.Diana sat beside me, her eyes bright and questioning. "So?" she pressed, nudging my arm. "How's the mission going? You've been gone for weeks. Did the queen make progress? Or—" she lowered her voice, eyes twinkling, "—do you need me to come help you deal with those Lycans?"I laughed. "The last thing I need is you marching into the pack grounds and getting yourself caught," I said, leaning forward to flick her forehead. "Besides, you wouldn't survive five minutes with their egos."She pouted. "You're underestimating me a

    ADAMEdward Brekan, ex Alpha King of our kind in this regions, and self-proclaimed historian of everything worth knowing, looked at me like I had just grown a second head. His eyes flicked from me to my brothers, disbelief thick enough to cut through."Don't you three do any research at all? Didn't you hear what I said earlier?" His voice thundered through the meeting room. "Or do you think the old books in the library are there for decoration?"I bit back a groan, exchanging a glance with Noah and Daniel. We'd spent the years training armies, managing colonies, and pulling the pack out of debt—but apparently, not reading enough dusty books made us ignorant fools.None of us replied.The silence stretched long enough that even the candle flames seemed to lean away from it. Finally, Edward exhaled and rubbed his temples, muttering something under his breath that sounded a lot like 'spirits save me from my own offspring.'"The Ancients," he began again, his tone softer but no less grav

    ADAMThe air in the meeting room was thick enough to choke on. The kind of silence that felt alive—pressing, listening, waiting.Maps lay spread across the table, dotted with ink marks where the attacks had been reported. Names of colonies, forests, villages—places that had once been peaceful now painted red with blood. The scent of wax from the burning candles mixed with the faint metallic tang of unease.We'd gone over the facts again and again. The conclusion was the same: the vampires were out for us.And yet, I couldn't understand why.My mind circled the question until it bled into another—one I didn't want to entertain. Sage.Her name slipped through the cracks of my concentration like smoke. I clenched my jaw, forcing my thoughts back to the table, to the vampires, to anything that wasn't her. But my wolf wasn't cooperating. It growled softly in my head, restless, whispering her scent which still lingered in my nostrils from the last time I'd seen her.Shut up, I snarled inwa

    ADAMRestless. That's what I'd been all evening.The moon hung somewhere behind the clouds, its faint light slipping through my office window and glinting off the pile of books scattered across my desk. Some were ancient, their spines cracked, pages yellowed with age. Others were newer, filled with recent research from scholars who barely understood what they were writing about. But all of them had one word in common—vampires.Creatures that had no business being here. Not in this land. Not after nearly a century of absence.My fingers drummed against the table as I stared at the words swimming across the open page before me. The ink blurred; my thoughts didn't. What were they looking for? What did they want from my lands?The reports from the colonies hadn't been exaggerated—I'd confirmed the evidence myself. Two dead, both drained dry. The scent of blood had lingered thick in the air when my men arrived. And the bodies—those had been the worst part. No claw marks. No burns. Just… pu

    SAGE"What the hell are you doing with a vampire?"Darius' voice, when I ignored his question, was like the crack of a whip, cutting through the night's quiet. His eyes burned then with something sharp—rage, maybe, or disbelief. Either way, it was intense enough to make the air between us hum.I didn't flinch. I just shrugged, keeping my usual mask of nonchalance firmly in place. "Didn't realize I had to explain my strolls to you," I said evenly. "Mind your business."But Darius didn't move. His expression didn't soften either. If anything, the tension in his shoulders deepened. He took a step closer, eyes glowing faintly in the dim light, shadows bending subtly toward him as if responding to his anger."I asked you a question," he said, his voice low, controlled. Too controlled."And I ignored it," I replied, tilting my head. "Take the hint."That only seemed to fuel him. He reached out again, his hand shooting for my wrist, but before his fingers could touch me, I summoned a thin sh
