LOGINScarlet's POVNine months. Nine long, agonizing months of constant pain and suffocating whispers.The palace had become a breeding ground for betrayal, the elders circling me like vultures waiting for a carcass to drop. The stress was a physical weight pressing down on my chest, leaving me utterly exhausted.“Luna, how much longer do you think the pack will fall in line?” my personal maid, Ariel, asked quietly. She was kneeling before me, gently massaging my swollen, aching feet while I leaned back against the hard stone of the throne.“For as long as I refuse to break,” I answered, my voice thick with fatigue. My eyelids felt heavy, every limb weighed down by lead.The medicinal herbs the physician had prescribed to keep my strength up were entirely gone. I knew what the court was doing—they were playing a waiting game, counting down the days until these children were forced into the world.“Where is Joel?” I murmured, shifting slightly.“He’s out on the field, training the warriors,
Damien's POV“We don’t call it a ‘naked party’ here, stranger,” the princess murmured, her voice laced with a warning as she squeezed my hand.Almost instantly, a heavy hush fell over the massive hall. The ambient noise of laughter and clinking glass died down, replaced by dozens of eyes locking onto me. The women in the room stared with unabashed hunger.I couldn't help but take them in. They were striking—flawless, sun-kissed skin, completely bare and unmarked, bodies sculpted to perfection. If temptation had a physical form, it was walking the floors of this hall. All around us, men casually touched them as they served drinks, laughing at jokes that weren’t funny, completely consumed by lust.Ahendrilla’s grip tightened around my hand, her knuckles turning white. It felt less like a gentle touch and more like a predator marking its territory. But my mind couldn't be swayed by the flesh on display. Every instinct inside me screamed to get back to my lands. To get back to my mate, Sc
Damien’s POVThe war with Morgathis had been an absolute bloodbath. I had held on with everything I had, desperately believing my pack and I could overcome her, but her magic was just too suffocating, too powerful.“C’mon, Alpha! We need to pull back now!” one of my frontline soldiers had roared, desperately dragging me toward the escape route.I wouldn’t listen. “You can’t handle her alone! We fight!”The soldier gripped my arm tighter, his face pale. “We can't win this, Alpha! We need to go!”But the thought of abandoning my pack—the men and women I had bled with through thick and thin—gutted me. I couldn't do it.“We fight until death!” I snapped, a savage growl tearing from my throat as I wrenched my arm free and charged back into the fray. I threw a lethal glare at the soldier who had begged me to run, commanding him to stand his ground.Together, we threw ourselves back into the meat grinder, fighting hand to hand...“He’s awake!”A startled masculine voice echoed right in front
Scarlet's POVThe days following the first time we crossed the line had been a blur of maddening intensity.I could have sworn the elders noticed the heavy, charged glances we traded across the courtroom, over the dinner table, and even out on the training grounds while he commanded the warriors. Every second away from him was a slow burn.“My queen,” Joel murmured, his voice a low vibration. He cast a sharp glance around the secluded corner of the grounds, ensuring we were entirely alone. Dropping his broadsword onto the dirt, he pulled me flush against his chest and hoisted me onto the stone ledge. His mouth crushed against mine in a bruising kiss, his hands already parting my thighs, fingers burning trails up my skin.“Fuck…” I gasped against his lips. “Just how I wanted it, you naughty boy.”I knew exactly what was at stake. My reputation, my throne, the legacy of my unborn pups—I was risking it all. But in his arms, the consequences blurred into background noise. I didn't care. I
Scarlet's POV“Scarlet, if I do this, there’s no turning back.” He locked his heavy eyes on mine, gently enveloping my hand in his, careful to avoid the tiny little baby bump that hadn’t even begun to show itself yet.Questions like, what if I’m being selfish? Questions like, what if Damien returns one day? These doubts kept hammering at my mind, but then I decided to completely force them out of my thoughts. Maybe for once in my life I should try and just choose myself regardless of the whole situation—and for once forget about whatever the consequences were going to be.“Just kiss me,” was all I responded with, a reply that only spoke of a woman who just wanted to get laid and absolutely nothing else.“You want to use me, Scarlet.”“You can say that—”“I can,” he countered, his brows furrowed and his lips slightly parted as he started to back off, but I was quick to swallow my words, making sure to calm his already hot head.“I’m not trying to use you, Joel. I just want us to enjoy
Scarlet’s POV“How’s she doing?”I heard a muffled masculine voice, my vision blurry as I tried to rub my eyes.“She’s stable for now,” the pack doctor replied.I finally managed to open my eyes, forcing myself to gather some strength. It suddenly dawned on me what had happened—the maids I had asked to bring the hot water and the seed hadn't delivered it before I fainted. But right now, I just needed to be sure I was physically okay.“Luna, are you alright?” Joel asked. His eyes were fixed on me as he gently lifted me, helping me sit up against the headboard.“Yes,” I answered, trying hard to remain calm even though I was visibly shaken.“Good.” Joel heaved a sigh of relief. He thanked the doctor, who reminded me that I needed plenty of rest before he finally took his leave.As soon as the door shut behind him, Joel walked over and helped me lie back down, holding my hand tightly in his.“Damien—”“I tried my best, Scarlet. We couldn’t find him.”“Then we still can't pronounce him dea

Scarlet’s POVThe moon shone at its peak, his claws destroyed my designer white overflowing gown, ripping it off and tossing it across the room. I felt what seemed like an electric spark light up all over my body, causing my skin to burn a deep red. My whole body spun, my heart racing faster. I t
Scarlet’s POV“Oh, I was just talking about the bond I had with…um…”My voice trailed off, my mind scrambling for something, anything that wouldn’t destroy everything in one breath.“The former person that trained her at Theandor,” Joel cut in smoothly.The lie landed between us like a blade disgui
Scarlet’s POV“Run! Save yourself! I’ll hold them back,” Joel assured, struggling to get on his feet as he snapped the arrow lodged in his chest, breaking it shorter.Blood streamed down his armor and onto my hands as he drew his sword and lifted me onto the horse.“I’m not leaving you here alone!”
