ANTALYA'S POV

"Never," I whispered.

Dominic's smile was sharp enough to cut glass. "We'll see about that, my beautiful little runaway. We'll see about that."

This can't be happening. The man I was supposed to marry... it's him. The monster everyone fears.

The shock hit me like a physical blow, making my knees weak and my vision blur. All this time, I'd been running from an arranged marriage to some faceless stranger, never realizing that the predator hunting me was my actual intended husband.

Dominic Blackwood. I was supposed to marry Dominic Blackwood.

"You look pale, little wolf," Dominic murmured, his thumb stroking across my cheek with mock tenderness. "Don't tell me you're having second thoughts about our reunion."

Second thoughts? I'm having a complete mental breakdown.

"You're a monster," I breathed, staring up at him with undisguised horror. "Everyone knows what you are. What you've done."

"And yet here you are," Dominic replied with that cruel smile, "responding to my touch l

    Antalya's POVThe crisp air bit at my cheeks, but I barely felt it. The roar of the crowd was a physical thing, vibrating through the ice beneath my skates. Across the center line, Dominic loomed, a dark mountain of intensity in his gear, his focus entirely on me. The annual pack hockey tournament had become our unlikely battleground, a place where all our pent-up passion and competition found an outlet.“Ready to lose, little wolf?” he called out, his voice a low growl that carried over the ice and went straight to my core.I grinned, adjusting my grip on the stick. “You wish, Alpha. My team’s got this.”The puck dropped. It was chaos after that—a blur of swinging sticks, spray of ice, and the thunder of bodies checking against the boards. Dominic was a force of nature, powerful and relentless, but my ladies—Lina, Sasha, Chloe, and me—we were swift and clever. We moved as one unit, a whirlwind of strategy against raw strength.He was everywhere, his dark eyes tracking my every move.

    DOMINIC POVThe cold edge of Greeley's blade against Antalya's throat is the only thing in the world. My heart is a frozen, heavy stone in my chest. Every primal instinct screams at me to lunge, to tear his throat out with my teeth. But I'm frozen. One twitch, one wrong move, and he'll end her. The tiny bead of blood under the silver tip is a promise of that.Stay calm. One wrong move and she dies.I take a slow, measured step forward, my hands held out to show I'm no immediate threat. "This is your grand plan, Greeley?" My voice is a low, controlled growl, hiding the storm of panic and rage inside me. "Holding a woman hostage? You've already lost. Everyone here sees you for the coward you are.""They'll see me as the victor who eliminated a traitor and his whore," Greeley sneers, his arm tightening around Antalya's torso. She gasps, a small, pained sound that feels like a physical blow to my gut. "Your pride or her life, Dominic. I won't ask again."I see it then. The briefest flicke

    DOMINIC POVThe sight of my brother, my own blood, holding Antalya as a shield made my vision bleed red. He was a fool, a blind, arrogant pawn, and he had his hands on what was mine. The air in the grand hall was thick with tension, but all I could see was the pale, terrified face of my mate over his shoulder."You won't escape this, Dominic," Raymond spat, his voice tight with a fear he was trying to mask with false courage. "The pack council will see you for what you are—a killer. Unfit to lead. You always were too volatile, too dangerous."A cold, mocking laugh escaped me. It wasn't a pleasant sound. It was the scrape of stone on stone. "Is that what they told you, brother? That I'm the monster? Look at yourself. Holding a woman to protect you from the truth you're too much of a coward to face."I will break every one of his fingers for touching her.His grip on Antalya tightened, and a low growl rumbled in my chest."I am the Alpha here," Raymond insisted, his eyes darting toward

    Antalya's POVThe elder's question hangs in the air, a death sentence waiting for my signature. I do. Two simple words that would seal my fate and end Dominic's. The shouting from outside grows louder, punctuated by another sharp crack that is definitely a gunshot.Raymond's head whips toward the main doors, his triumphant mask slipping for a fraction of a second to reveal sheer shock. His grip on my hand becomes crushing, a bone-white brace of fear and anger. A wave of murmuring ripples through the assembled crowd, heads turning, people rising from their seats in confusion.He's here.The thought is a lightning strike of pure hope. It floods my veins, washing away the paralyzing fear. My spine straightens. I yank my hand from Raymond's grasp."What is the meaning of this?" the elder stammers, looking from Raymond to the commotion at the doors.Raymond doesn't answer him. His eyes are locked on the entrance, his face like a thundercloud. "Guards! Seal the hall!" he barks, but his voic

    Antalya's POVThe night is endless and suffocating. I don't sleep. I don't even try. I just lie there, staring at the fancy ceiling, my mind trapped in its own terrifying thoughts. Raymond. Greeley. Their plot. It plays on a horrible loop behind my eyes. Dominic, weak but free, hunted like an animal. Dominic, cornered. Dominic, falling under a blade held by his own brother's command. The images are so vivid I can almost smell the blood, hear the final, sickening thud.It's not just his life he's risking.My hand flattens against my stomach, over the hollow ache that will never truly leave me.It's his soul. Raymond is walking blindly into his own destruction, and he's taking everyone down with him.My fear for Dominic is a sharp, physical pain, but my disappointment in Raymond is a dull, heavy weight. He could have been so much more. He chose to be a puppet and a murderer.I can't let that happen. I have to find a way to stop this, even if it costs me everything.The first grey light

    DOMINIC POVThe last of the poison's fire finally faded from my blood. I drew in a deep, full breath—the first one in weeks that didn't feel like broken glass in my lungs. The weakness was still there, a ghost of what I'd suffered, but it was fading fast. I flexed my hands, feeling the strength slowly returning to my muscles.Good. I'll need it.Marcus watched me from across the safe house's main room, his sharp eyes tracking my every movement. He hadn't spoken much since my... outburst. The memory of my hand grabbing his shirt, the absolute command in my voice, hung between us. He understood now. Antalya was the line. The one nobody crossed."The medic says your system is mostly clear," he said, his tone carefully neutral. "The worst is over.""The worst is just beginning," I corrected him, my voice a low rumble. I walked to the window, pulling the heavy curtain aside just enough to look out at the gloomy dawn. "I wasn't just lying in that dungeon waiting to die, Marcus. I was listen
