Ember Frost's POV

I felt a wave of relief wash over me, thankful for his thoughtful kindness that helped lift the sudden sadness I’d been feeling.

"I've been judging you all wrong," I said quietly. "It’s never right to judge someone you don’t truly know. Thank you for being there for me today, for giving me a shoulder to lean on, and for your kindness."

He laughed again. "Come on, it’s nothing. If anyone dares to bully you again, don’t hesitate to come to me. I’ll take care of them for messing

  • Rejected by the Alpha, Claimed by the Crown   Missing Pathways

    Ember Frost’s POVThe whole space looked worse by the second.Large void distortions had opened across the system space, spreading in unstable clusters. Some were small. Others expanded far enough to make my chest tighten just looking at them. They didn’t stay stable. The edges kept flickering, like the system was struggling to keep them contained.A cold feeling crawled up my spine.“What do we do about those?” I asked quietly, unable to take my eyes off them. “Can they even be fixed?”Eira’s expression turned serious. For once, she didn’t answer immediately.“Normally, Henry can self-repair through the system,” she finally said. “Slow process, but it stabilizes over time.” She looked at the spreading void distortions ahead and exhaled slowly. “But it seems his condition is far too unstable. This system barely has enough integrity left to maintain itself, let alone run proper recovery cycles.”“So there’s nothing we can do?” I asked.“I didn’t say that.” She rubbed her forehead. “Eld

  • Rejected by the Alpha, Claimed by the Crown   The Breaking Point

    Ember Frost’s POV“Watch its pattern,” I said. “Mark every shift.”I closed my eyes briefly and expanded Lunaris again.This time, I didn’t push it aggressively.I let it spread quietly, controlled and precise.It moved through the lower structure—through fractured links and unstable spatial threads. Instead of targeting the fragment directly, I focused on the paths it used to shift itself.One by one, those routes began to lock down.Broken connections sealed.Unstable channels narrowed.Open pathways between distortion layers closed gradually, limiting its movement completely.Suddenly, a violent pressure slammed into the sealed zone, like something striking from the inside with full force. The containment held—but it groaned under impact.My pulse jumped.It was fighting inside the seal.Eira’s expression tightened.“This isn’t good,” she said. “It will affect Henry.”Another surge hit.The entire structure shook.The seal rippled under strain. Even the system beneath reacted to th

  • Rejected by the Alpha, Claimed by the Crown   The Compression Point

    Ember Frost’s POVThose two words stopped me cold. Had she found it—the thing controlling all of this? I really hoped she had.For a moment, she said nothing.Her eyes still burned red. If she had found the source, why hadn’t she pulled out yet?A knot tightened in my chest.I started pacing. The room was cold, but sweat had already gathered on my forehead. Every second stretched longer than the last.If she didn’t say something soon, I was pulling her out myself.Then Eira hissed, “Oh… so you can transform. You keep surprising me.”Her fingers pressed harder against Henry’s chest.The air around her shifted.“Calm down, Ember,” Elder Anna said quietly. “Your worry is making it harder for her.”A cold pull swept through the space, faint at first, then growing stronger.Elder Anna and Ellan moved closer to check on Eira and Henry.“What’s going on?” I asked, my voice tight.“We don’t know,” Ellan replied, still watching carefully.“I can’t just sit here doing nothing—I need to see what

  • Rejected by the Alpha, Claimed by the Crown    Looking Too Close

    Ember Frost’s POVI knew almost at once that I wouldn’t be able to finish this by myself.What I found inside Henry was far more tangled than I had expected. Every time I thought I had cleared one part of it, something else slipped out of reach. The longer I stayed, the harder it became to keep hold of what I was doing.A sharp ache ran through my head. My breathing turned uneven.Then, suddenly, something tightened around my throat. It felt like an invisible hand closing around my neck. My body convulsed. I heard voices calling my name, but they sounded distant, blurred, as though they were reaching me from very far away. I tried to answer, but no sound came.Then the pressure broke. A violent pull tore me free.I opened my eyes and jerked back.The room felt strangely cold when I came back. For a moment I could only stand there, gasping, trying to steady myself. I was still caught in the memory of what I had seen—and what had happened—the layers, the resistance, the way everything

  • Rejected by the Alpha, Claimed by the Crown   At the Threshold

    Ember Frost’s POVThe darkness had spread deep into the void of Henry’s system. It wasn’t just clinging to the surface anymore. It had settled into every part of him, woven so tightly through his being that it felt like it had always been there. One careless move could upset the balance, and that was a risk I couldn’t take. But standing there and doing nothing wasn’t an option either. So I kept going.At first, I thought it would be slow work—careful cleansing, peeling the darkness away little by little. But the deeper I went, the more that plan began to unravel. What I found wasn’t simple. There was intention behind it, something deliberately set in place.The further I went, the clearer it became that everything was connected by a single design. Not broken pieces, but one network spread across different layers, all drawing from the same hidden source. That realization changed how I moved.I stopped treating it as isolated points of corruption.Instead, I let Lunaris expand outwa

  • Rejected by the Alpha, Claimed by the Crown   Crossing Into Him

    Ember frost’s POVElder Anna gave a short nod and stepped closer.For a heartbeat, nothing changed.Then I felt it. A quiet pull, light but steady, settling somewhere deep inside me. The connection had taken hold. “Please step outside. We need room to work.” Eira moved to stand beside me. Axel stopped so suddenly the others nearly stumbled. “Isn’t she coming? Why does she get special permission? Just because of her status?”He jabbed a finger in Eira’s direction, then swept it back toward me.“This isn’t about privilege. We all care about Sir Henry. Don’t act like you’re the only ones trying to save him.”Axel took a step forward again. “If anyone should be here, it’s all of us,” he said. For a moment, no one else spoke.The last bit of patience I had was gone.“I never said anyone cared less,” I replied.My voice stayed even.“If you were willing to sacrifice yourself for him, I wouldn’t argue that.” He went quiet for a moment.But I didn’t give the silence space to turn into

  • Rejected by the Alpha, Claimed by the Crown   Mist at Sunrise

    Ember Frost POVI sat quietly in the study room.The air felt heavy. Everyone carried the same pained look; my father and Duke George kept glancing at the Northern Duke with guilt and sorrow burning in their eyes. But he seemed trapped far inside his grief, barely aware of any of us. It was like he

    Seraphina’s POVThe confinement cell was damp and freezing, the air thick with the sour smell of decay. Every breath felt rotten.The werewolves didn’t even bother to torture me. That, somehow, was the cruelest part. They brought me food. A roof over my head. A bed that barely passed for comfort in

    Ember Frost’s POVElder Marcus exhaled softly, his expression clouded with worry. He didn’t argue or question anything; he simply fell silent, lifted his hands, and summoned a small flame that reduced the strand of hair to powder. Then he pricked the Northern Duke’s fingertip, took a drop of blood,

    Ember Frost’s POVEira and I were halfway through breakfast when the news hit like a slap to the face: Seraphina had lost her mind.“That makes no sense,” I blurted out. My first thought was that she was playing another trick. “Overnight? Just like that? She’s gone mad? Who would she even be preten
