We both threw on our clothes and made our way down to the restaurant, only to walk into what was clearly some kind of standoff between Max and Violet. Though honestly, it was less of a standoff and more of Violet staring Max down while he just stood there looking like he wanted the floor to swallow him whole.

“Ethan, make your fucking beta accept my rejection!”

Violet’s voice was way too loud for that hour of the morning, carrying all the energy of someone who hadn’t needed sleep at all, and Et

    SophiaWhen I followed Ethan back to Embermoon Pack, he took my hand and practically broke into a run through the palace, heading straight for his room without slowing down for a single second.“Ethan, slow down — what’s the rush?” I squeezed his fingers.“You know exactly what needs to happen, and you made me a promise,” Ethan said, turning just enough to raise an eyebrow at me, his eyes dropping briefly to the exposed skin of my neck above the gown.My face went hot all at once. The memory was perfectly clear — I had promised him that once Lila’s situation was handled to my satisfaction, I would finally accept us as true mates. And that meant letting him mark me as his.How did I feel about it right now? Honestly, I wasn’t entirely sure. There was a nervousness there, yes — but underneath it something warmer was already taking over. Something closer to excitement. The thought of being fully, completely committed to Ethan — really and truly his — made something bloom quietly in my ch

    Marcus’s POV“Please, Marcus! You have to listen to me!”“There is absolutely nothing to explain!”I stood on the outside of the cell, the iron bars the only thing between me and the red-haired woman huddled inside. Even with tear stains streaking down her face, she was still as beautiful as she had always been. There was a time when seeing her like this would have made me pull her straight into my arms without hesitation — but that time was gone. It would never come back. Never once in my life had I entertained the thought that the woman I had shared everything with, my fated mate, was actually a witch living right under my nose.“Marcus! Marcus, listen to me — I’m half werewolf! I’m not just a witch!”“How is it possible for the Luna of Nightfall Pack to be an impure werewolf?! You’ve humiliated me in front of everyone! Do you have any idea what you’ve cost me?!”Lila’s wailing kept tearing through my head, and my thoughts kept pulling me back to the room full of Alphas and the look

    With the jewelry situation put to rest, the banquet settled back into its natural rhythm. The band I had arranged began filling the hall with warm, flowing music, and people gradually paired off and drifted toward the center of the floor to dance, while others made their way to the dining area to enjoy the desserts I had put together.I slipped over to the dining area, picked up a bottle of red wine, and walked calmly toward Marcus and Lila. I lifted an empty glass from the side table, filled it from the bottle sitting nearby, and held it out to Lila with a pleasant smile. “I never got the chance to properly congratulate you — on becoming Luna.”The three of us standing there like this was almost a mirror image of my third wedding anniversary, only everything had shifted. This time, it was my hand holding out the glass — with a little something extra added to it.Lila didn’t know what was in the drink, but that had never stopped her from being watchful around me. She had always been

    SophiaEthan walked over to me holding a glass of red wine and thoughtfully handed me one he had already picked up for me.“Alpha Ethan…” Marcus greeted him through clenched teeth and gave a stiff, reluctant salute.I slipped my arm through Ethan’s, having no desire to spend another second engaged with either of those two. “Ethan, I have the dessert menu — come and take a look.”I steered him toward the dining area, and his mood lifted just slightly once we were away from them. “So is everything sorted? No more problems?” he asked, his voice carrying a trace of confusion.“Everything’s fine, but what I ended up doing to fix things might catch you off guard a little.” I sighed, thinking back to what I had used to replace the centerpiece.“Catch me off guard?”“You’ll see soon enough.” I gave him a small wink and Ethan smiled, letting it go without pushing further.By now nearly all the guests had arrived and the exhibition was about to get underway, so I excused myself from Ethan for a

    SophiaToday was without a doubt one of the biggest days of my life. A collection of jewelry I had poured everything into was about to be presented to Alphas and Lunas from packs across the continent at the exhibition, and…I smoothed out the gem-encrusted dress I had chosen for the occasion. On the inside of the bustier, tucked carefully behind an intricate panel of gems, a small secret pocket had been sewn in — and sitting inside it was the little purple potion bottle Violet had given me.Today, I was finally going to have my revenge. For every insult from my previous life and this one.“Miss Sophia, should I throw this out?” The maid approached me holding something up, and when I looked over I saw it was the tie Ethan had brought with him last night.“Put it in the cupboard.”I had a nightmare last night — the same one that kept finding me, the one where that witch took my life in my previous life. The fear and fury from it were still sitting fresh in my chest, and if anything, it

    Ethan’s POVI was more than a little irritated about the Pasquale Pack interruption, and the moment I was done dealing with the fallout alongside Max, I took the bouquet of flowers from the maid who had been waiting with them, straightened the suit I had taken care to pick out for today, and headed out the door with the flowers in hand. “I’ll go and find Sophia myself. No need to follow.”Even though Sophia had told me she would be pretty tied up over the next few days with the jewelry exhibition and wouldn’t have much room for dates, I couldn’t stand the idea of going that many days without seeing her.Not wanting to cause any trouble for her by showing up unannounced through the front, I used Jax’s ability to move quietly through the woods behind the pack and slip past the guards without anyone noticing.If I remembered right, Sophia had mentioned her room was on the second floor. I tilted my head up toward the balconies above, trying to figure out which window was hers.You look li
