Astrid’s POV

I woke up feeling different. Not confused or disoriented the way people were supposed to wake after trauma. Just more aware like every sense had been turned up and suddenly the world was louder and sharper than it had been before.

I could hear heartbeats coming from different parts of the building.

My body felt right in ways it hadn’t in weeks. No burning in my chest, no weakness dragging at my limbs. Just strength and the strange sensation of being whole for the first time since

    Astrid’s POV“That’s the bond settling.” She gestured for me to sit but I stayed standing. “The extraction was successful. No residual corruption, no magical scarring. You’re completely free of Anthony’s mark.”“And the replacement?” I asked looking directly at him.“Stable.” His voice gave nothing away. “You’re under Crown protection now. Legally, magically and politically. Anthony has no claim to you anymore.”“Just you do.”“It’s not the same,” he said finally.“Isn’t it?” I moved closer, watching his expression for cracks in that controlled facade. “You marked me. Bound me. Made decisions about my body and my bonds without asking permission. How is that different from what Anthony did?”“Because I’m not using you.” His jaw tightened. “I’m protecting you.”“By taking away my choice?”“By keeping you alive.” His voice went harder. “You were dying. Days away from the mark reaching your heart. I did what needed to be done to ensure you survived long enough to reclaim Silvermist and wa

    Astrid’s POVI woke up feeling different. Not confused or disoriented the way people were supposed to wake after trauma. Just more aware like every sense had been turned up and suddenly the world was louder and sharper than it had been before.I could hear heartbeats coming from different parts of the building. My body felt right in ways it hadn’t in weeks. No burning in my chest, no weakness dragging at my limbs. Just strength and the strange sensation of being whole for the first time since I’d been reborn.I sat up slowly and the room came into focus. Not Anthony’s bedroom. Somewhere else entirely, furnished with dark wood and simple elegance that screamed power without needing to prove it.Davian’s suite. My hand went to my neck automatically and I felt smooth skin where the mark should have burned. No pain, no degradation, no black veins spreading toward my heart.Just a mark that felt different under my fingers. Cooler and settled instead of fighting. I needed to see it.The b

    Davian’s POVThe journey back to my suite felt longer than it should have. Astrid remained unconscious in my arms, her breathing slow and her heartbeat strong but her body completely limp. The new mark on her neck had already settled. I’d sent Daniel and Ian ahead to secure the route and kept Serra close in case Astrid’s condition changed. Vincent had returned to his own territory with Mirabel to establish alibis and begin damage control on his end.Ondine walked beside me in silence, her expression unreadable but her presence making it clear she wasn’t leaving until she’d said whatever she’d decided needed saying.I carried Astrid through the door and straight to the bedroom, laying her carefully on the bed. Her head settled against the pillow and her hair spread out in waves. I should have left immediately. Should have returned to the other room to coordinate next steps and handle the political fallout that was undoubtedly already building.Instead I stood there watching her breat

    Davian’s POVSerra had Astrid positioned in the center of the clearing, sitting on a flat stone with her neck exposed. The mark was visible even in moonlight, black veins spreading down toward her collarbone like corruption trying to reach her heart.I stood a few feet away watching Serra prepare her instruments, silver tools that gleamed with magic meant to cut through witch work. Ondine observed from her position against the tree, arms crossed and expression unreadable.She knew we were mates. I could tell from the way she watched me instead of Astrid, from the slight curve of her mouth that suggested amusement at something I hadn’t said out loud.“This will hurt.” Serra told Astrid quietly, her professional mask firmly in place. “The mark has been part of you for four years. Tearing it out will feel like tearing out part of your soul.”“I understand.” Astrid’s voice came out steady despite the fear I could scent on her.“Your Majesty.” Serra looked at me. “I’ll need you close. When

    Astrid’s POVThe clearing felt too quiet for something this permanent.There are no decorations or celebration. Just witnesses standing in a loose circle around us while moonlight filtered through branches overhead casting everything in silver.Like the Moon goddess herself was watching. Vincent stood to my left with Mirabel beside him, both of them watching with expressions I couldn’t read. Serra had positioned herself near the edge with her medical kit, ready for what came after. Daniel and Ian flanked the opposite side. And Ondine leaned against a tree observing everything with that same clinical interest she’d shown during Tiana’s failed ritual, power radiating off her in waves. No pack gathered to celebrate. No families witnessing the union. Just the people who needed to know, the ones who could be trusted to keep this quiet until Davian decided otherwise.“Ready?” Davian asked quietly.I nodded not trusting my voice. I’ve gone through a lot for the past forty eight hours and

    Astrid’s POVI drank the vial because refusing would raise more questions than I could answer.The liquid burned going down so bitter and wrong in ways that made my stomach turn. But I swallowed it all and handed the empty glass back to Tiana meeting her eyes squarely.She took it without speaking and returned to her table, pulling out more supplies. Her movements had changed since Ondine walked in, slower and less efficient like she was second guessing every choice.“This will take some time.” Tiana said not looking at anyone specifically. “The bonding magic needs to settle properly.”“Take all the time you need.” Anthony’s voice carried forced patience. “We want this done correctly.”Ondine made a soft sound that might have been agreement or amusement. She hadn’t moved from her position against the wall, hadn’t interfered or interrupted. Just watched with that wring interest that made everyone in the room hyperaware of her presence.Tiana began the ritual. Her hands moved through th

    “You’ve been busy” he added.My wolf stirred the moment his scent reached me — cedar and something darker, heavier.I forced it down before it could rise any further.“Enjoying the show?” I asked.“Educational I’ll say.” he said lightly. “You held your ground longer than I expected.”My jaw tighten

    Astrid’s POV I needed air! The room felt too small after Mira left, the walls pressing in with the weight of what I now knew. So I did what I always did when my mind raced too fast, I went to check on training. The yard was busy with warriors running drills, the clang of practice weapons and sho

    My pulse spiked.Oh no he heard.I turned the water higher, scrubbing the sink quickly, forcing my breathing to steady.“I’m fine,” I called out, but my voice came out rougher than I wanted.“I didn’t ask if you were fine.”Another cough tried to rise—I swallowed it down hard, gripping the edge of

    Astrid’s POVPain woke me from my nap. It was not the dull kind that I have been ignoring or the ache from training that makes your muscles weak. This was sharp and burning like my blood was on fire. My hand flew to my neck before I was even fully awake. It was the mark! It felt all shades of wro
