GIDEON'S POV

The Pack Investigations team called me on Monday morning.

Not through the official Alpha channel. My personal line. That told me right away they wanted an actual conversation, not some formal statement on record.

The investigator’s name was Osei. She had the kind of voice that comes from doing the job for years. No polish, no extra deference because I was the heir. Just direct and steady.

“We’ve been reviewing the rogue attack files,” she said. “Formation patterns. The hockey strat

    GIDEON'S POVThe Pack Investigations team called me on Monday morning.Not through the official Alpha channel. My personal line. That told me right away they wanted an actual conversation, not some formal statement on record.The investigator’s name was Osei. She had the kind of voice that comes from doing the job for years. No polish, no extra deference because I was the heir. Just direct and steady.“We’ve been reviewing the rogue attack files,” she said. “Formation patterns. The hockey strategy accesses logs.” She paused. “And the timing comparison document that came through your Alpha clearance.”“Yeah,” I said. “Liam Ashford put that together. He’s on the team.”“We’ve spoken with him. And with the coach about the strategy file.” Another pause. “We’d like to talk to you directly about Kenneth Petty’s involvement.”“I’ll come in,” I said.“Today if possible.”“Two hours,” I told her.I called Tanya as soon as I hung up. She answered on the second ring. I could hear the lab hum beh

    GIDEON'S POVSunday felt like the first day in weeks that didn’t have an agenda taped to it. No new updates on the inquiry. No security pings. No meetings I had to prep for, no wards to set, no evidence to line up just right. Liam was back home with his family for the weekend. Seraphine had texted her dad’s team that she was taking the day and meant it. Max had grabbed the blue pickup and headed out to the neutral woods three hours away, saying he just needed to walk somewhere that didn’t feel like campus.I texted Tanya at nine. What are you doing today?She wrote back almost right away. Biology reading. And I was thinking about walking the north ridge path in actual daylight. Without anything happening on it.I typed fast. I’ll come.I know, she sent back, and I could hear the smile in it even through the screen.We met at ten. The campus was in full Sunday mode—everyone sleeping in, fewer people out, that lazy quiet that settles over the whole place when nobody has anywhere to be.

    TANYA'S POVI actually slept last night. Like, really slept. Not the half-awake, wired kind I’d been doing for weeks since that stupid phase-two symbol showed up in my drawer. Just deep, dead-to-the-world sleep. The kind your body gives you when it finally believes the worst is over, and it can stop bracing for impact.I woke up at seven-thirty to this weak winter light sneaking through the service road window. For a minute, I just lay there, staring at the ceiling, letting the quiet sink in. No buzzing phone. No mystery texts. No symbols to decode or old records to dig through. Just the familiar smell of cardboard boxes and that weird old-carpet dorm scent, plus the usual campus noises drifting up from outside. It felt... normal. Weirdly, perfectly normal.My brain kept circling back to Victoria standing at the back of the social hall last night. She’d shown up, looked straight at us, and left. That was it. Three quiet beats across a noisy room. I kept turning it over in my head, try

    TANYA'S POVGideon got back right at five. He knocked that same four-beat pattern on my door, and when I opened it, he was just standing there in the hallway, still carrying the whole estate on him. Not wrecked or anything. Just quieter. Like the air changes after you finally open a window that’s been stuck for weeks. “How did it go?” I asked. He shrugged one shoulder. “It went.” A beat. “She said her piece. I said mine. Nobody changed anybody’s mind, but I guess that was never really the point.” He rubbed the back of his neck. “I told her about the letters. She didn’t deny them. Just… reframed everything. Called it standard pack intel stuff, said the dissolution was justified anyway, that the whole claim was shaky, and tough calls had to be made for the greater good. She said it all really smoothly. She’s good at that.” I waited. “I told her it was done,” he went on. “The management, the leverage, all of it. I used your words exactly—said you were handling the transplant li

    TANYA'S POVHe knocked on my door at 7:45 in the morning.I’d been up since six, dressed and ready like some kind of nervous wreck who couldn’t sit still. The little room still had that faint cardboard-and-dusty-carpet smell, but after all these weeks, it was starting to feel like home in a weird way. You stick around a place long enough and it just… becomes yours, I guess.I opened the door.He looked different. Not the usual campus hoodie and jeans he’d been living in lately. This was deliberate—shirt tucked in, jacket on, the kind of outfit you pick when you know the day’s going to ask something hard of you. His face was tight, the way it gets when he’s locked everything down so he can actually say what he needs to say.“I’m going to the estate,” he told me.“Today?” I asked, even though I already knew.“This morning. She answered right away. She’s waiting.” He stopped for a second. “Max found something this morning. Old emails between the Foundation and Ginna’s coven. Eleven years

    GIDEON'S POVI didn’t sleep well.Not because of the work. That was gone now, the pressure lifted, the suite air finally clean in a way I’d almost forgotten it could be. Not because of the social tonight or the inquiry or Kenneth. I just lay there in the dark at two in the morning, staring at the ceiling and thinking about my mother. Really thinking about her, the way I’d been avoiding for weeks until I finally ran out of excuses.The gaps she’d left. The testimony timestamp. The housing record. The way she’d used Kenneth for logistics without ever considering that the formation tactics could be traced back through the hockey file. Three mistakes in twenty years of running everything like clockwork. Not careless slips. She didn’t make those. It was something else. The kind of blind spot that happens when you’ve been operating alone at the top for so long that you stop looking for things you can’t control.She hadn’t seen Seraphine’s father moving. She hadn’t seen the testimony sitting

    TANYA’S POVThe silence of the dorm room was heavier than any textbook I’d ever lugged across campus. I had spent the last four hours staring at the cracks in the ceiling, trying to force my brain to shut down, but sleep was a ghost I couldn't catch. Every time I closed my eyes, the darkness didn't

    GIDEON’S POVThe heavy oak doors of the lecture hall creaked as I shoved them open, the sound echoing through the tiered room. Every head snapped in my direction. The air was thick with the scent of old paper, floor wax, and the nervous sweat of fifty different wolves. I didn't slow down. I didn't

    TANYA’S POVThe mid-term break was supposed to be a relief. It was the first time since the semester began that the campus would actually be quiet, a reprieve from the whispers, the glares, and the suffocating pressure of being the "Omega" everyone was afraid of. The hallways were already buzzing w

    Tanya’s POVEverything just… tilted.I stared at Gideon as my brain had short-circuited. This was my woods. My hiding spot. The place I came when everything else got too loud. Not Moonstone. Not some downtown bar. Home. And there he was, Gideon Hemisphere, hockey captain, fated-bloodline golden boy
