Ember Frost’s POV

After a while Eira said, “I think I’ll side with Orion this time,” Eira said at last. “You need to go back to the palace. Let them examine you, test what’s happening inside your body, and figure out how to stop the backlash. I refuse to watch my best friend lose her mind. And if you end up like Seraphina, locked in a quiet room and losing touch with reality, I won’t come see you.”

I groaned softly. “That’s harsh. What if some overconfident doctor decides my brain needs trimmin

  • Rejected by the Alpha, Claimed by the Crown   Fractured

    Ember Frost’s POVNo one argued with me this time. No one even tried. Whatever differences we had, none of us could stand there and watch Henry die.“That might work,” Ellan said, but his tone didn’t match the words. “There’s still something you’re not seeing.”He stepped forward before anyone could respond. “This is exactly why rushing in blindly will get us all killed.”The air around him shifted as he raised his hand. What he’d been showing us—the shape of Henry’s soul—began to change. At first it just trembled, then it twisted in on itself, losing form. It no longer looked whole… no longer looked human.It turned into something shapeless and uneven, like a mass that had lost all structure. Weak. Barely holding together. The room fell silent.Ellan glanced back at us. “That,” he said, “is what’s left of Henry’s soul.”For a moment, no one spoke. I felt my chest tighten.He went on, more serious now. “It’s not complete. What you’re seeing here… it’s only a piece. A small piece.”Th

  • Rejected by the Alpha, Claimed by the Crown   Beyond Human Means

    Ember Frost’s POVEllan hesitated for a second before speaking. “This… isn’t something ordinary,” he said, rubbing the back of his neck. “I’m not sure it should be discussed in the open. If you want, I can seal the area so only a few of us hear it.”I almost laughed in disbelief.If it was meant to be private, why bring it up like that in front of everyone? He’d basically announced it already.A faint shift in the room made me pause.People had gone quiet.Then I noticed it—one by one, their attention settled on me.I frowned a little, confused at first. Why were they all—“Ember,” Eira said, her tone calm but firm, “you decide. Do we keep this between a few people, or does everyone hear it?”For a moment, I just stared at her.Since when was I the one making that call?But no one else stepped in. No one questioned it.The weight of it sank in slowly, pressing on my chest in a way I couldn’t ignore.At first, it felt strange… then it clicked.This wasn’t just a casual question they we

  • Rejected by the Alpha, Claimed by the Crown   Hidden Strain

    Ember Frost’s POVWe didn’t waste any time and started preparing to head out for Henry.Orion was still organizing people—handing out supplies, checking what we had, making sure nothing was missed.Waiting wasn’t an option. Standing still only made things worse. We gathered more people than usual and set out together. If something was waiting for us out there, we weren’t going in unprepared.Orion stayed back to coordinate things from here. Elder Harriet and Elder Marcus stayed with him, keeping watch over the situation and handling anything that came up in our absence.Elder Anna joined us. With her link to Harriet, she could pass information quickly between both sides without delay, which made her presence more useful out here than staying behind.Everything was set. All that was left… was to move.To my surprise, Eira—still looking a bit out of it—suddenly stepped forward and asked to come with us.Her voice wasn’t fully steady, but there was something firm underneath it.“I can s

  • Rejected by the Alpha, Claimed by the Crown   A Narrow Chance

    Ember Frost's POVMy mind raced back to what might have caused this. Only one place came to mind—the hemlock forest.She had been alone that night… the same night she left the cave. I had convinced everyone to go after the demon seal, thinking we were doing the right thing.That had to be it. That was the only moment it made sense.Something must have happened to her there… something we didn’t see. Something we weren’t aware of.And it’s my fault. My selfishness did this to her.Eira said something about giving in to dark powers… …Does that mean Lilian knows what she’s becoming?I looked at Eira. “You said she gave in to dark powers… does that mean Lilian is aware of what she’s turned into?”Eira shook her head. “No… her body couldn’t fight the demon, so she gave in. Now she’s being used as a cradle… for demonic rebirth.”The words didn’t sit right with me.A cradle for demonic rebirth… like something growing inside her, using her?Was it possible that whatever was inside her wasn’t

  • Rejected by the Alpha, Claimed by the Crown   The Point of No Return

    Ember Frost’s POVEira remained like that for two days—quiet and distant. She was with me, yet it felt like she was somewhere else entirely. No one dared to say much. We all saw it, but kept silent. It felt like anything we said might break whatever little calm was left. Everyone who knew what we’d found carried the same uneasy silence. And just when it couldn’t feel heavier—The third day came carrying its own troubles. A messenger arrived from the palace carrying a wrapped bundle. He didn’t speak at first. Just stood there, like whatever he had brought was heavier than his words.After a moment, he finally spoke.“The king instructed me to deliver this,” he said, handing the bundle to Elder Anna.We opened it carefully.Inside were sketches.And a note.The note came first.Lilian has woken up. But something is not right.A chill ran through me.“What does that mean?” I whispered, more to myself than anyone else.Then I saw the second line.She is not human anymore.My attention

  • Rejected by the Alpha, Claimed by the Crown   A Gift or a Curse

    Ember Frost’s POVThere was no way out of this. No right answer—just choices that all came with a cost, and none of them kind. When I looked up, Eira hadn’t moved.She looked distant, like she wasn’t fully there anymore. But I didn’t need to ask to know why.No one needed to ask what was wrong. You could feel it in the way she stayed quiet. And the truth was, her situation wasn’t any easier than Medina’s.And just like before, there were no good options.She had a quiet strength to her, the kind that didn’t break easily. Her kindness wasn’t weak—it was firm, steady. Like clear water that refused to hold even a speck of dirt. Once she believed something was right, she wouldn’t turn away from it.But her world had already been stripped down to almost nothing. Her grandmother. Her mother. And somewhere out there… her father—the one person she had never met.But there was one cruel truth we couldn’t ignore.If there was any chance at all, it had to come from her wizard father.The man w

    Ember Frost’s POVThere was truly no way to tame the Astral Eyes.No matter how I tried to steady myself, that harsh truth slammed back into me all over again.And if that was true… What about Eira? Was she going to meet the same early death Medina did?Elder Marcus placed a calming hand on my shou

    Eira's POVThe werewolf elders were already in place, each one braced for what was coming. Their leader shot Ember a firm look—his silent way of saying everything was ready. Ember didn’t hesitate. She turned toward me, her voice trembling with urgency.“Eira—go! Do it now!”I forced myself to conce

    Ember Frost’s POVI went to check on Eira.She had just regained consciousness a moment earlier. Her body seemed fine, but her eyes had taken the worst of the damage. She needed more time to heal, and the bandages couldn’t come off anytime soon. The thought of what her life might look like after th

She was on the ground, bound so tigh
