"He is finally stepping through that door after making Mother wait half the evening?" I mutter, my voice dropping into a sharp, dry edge as I slide my phone into my pocket and rise from the velvet couch in the Whitlock Moon Suite.

Lorelei rushes toward the entryway of the Davis Alpha Residence, her tired face lighting up with a sudden, desperate hope as she reaches for the heavy oak brass handle. "I told you he would come, Joxie! Baylor never breaks his promise to family."

    "He is finally stepping through that door after making Mother wait half the evening?" I mutter, my voice dropping into a sharp, dry edge as I slide my phone into my pocket and rise from the velvet couch in the Whitlock Moon Suite.Lorelei rushes toward the entryway of the Davis Alpha Residence, her tired face lighting up with a sudden, desperate hope as she reaches for the heavy oak brass handle. "I told you he would come, Joxie! Baylor never breaks his promise to family."The door swings open with a sharp click, but the broad-shouldered figure standing in the dimly lit hallway is not my musician brother. Merritt Whitlock stands there in a dark leather jacket, his sharp jaw clenched tight, his golden eyes flickering with a cold, frantic energy that makes the hairs on my arms stand on end."Merritt?" Lorelei breathes out, her hands freezing mid-air, the smile instantly draining from her face. "What are you doing here this late? Where is your brother?"Merritt doesn't answer her right a

    "He is not stepping foot back in Whitlock Cottage tonight?" I ask, my voice dropping into a flat, ice-cold thread as I lean my broad, heavy frame against the wooden doorframe.Hollis Crane, standing on the threshold of our cottage with an armful of expensive silk-wrapped boxes, blinks in sudden unease. He clears his throat, his eyes scanning my full, heavy figure, taking in the wide curve of my hips and the thick strength of my shoulders beneath my linen tunic. My dark human eyes stay fixed on him, completely unreadable, while my mother, Lorelei Whitlock, bustles in the kitchen behind me, the rich scent of roasted boar and wild herbs filling the air."Baylor is... extremely occupied with the Lamont Media House broadcast schedule," Hollis stammers, taking half a step back into the gravel driveway of the Moonridge Residential Quarter. "He wanted me to drop off these rare alchemical teas and northern furs for your mother and father. As his lead agent, I assured him I would deliver them p

    "Look at the digital board in the main corridor, Joxie aced the damn trial!"The loud scream echoes off the high stone walls of the Wolf Biology Wing, cutting straight through the tension in the hallway. I keep my heavy, broad frame moving forward, my thick shoulders squared beneath my leather tunic as every shifter student in Mooncrest Academy freezes to stare at me. My dark human eyes stay fixed straight ahead, completely unbothered by the whispers rippling through the crowd like wild wind."A perfect score of one hundred and fifty points? A non-shifting human female?""My wolf must be blind. I thought Ace Marlow brought her in through Whitlock Hollow connections!""How does an unshifted human get top rank in shifter territory law and medicinal alchemy? Did Briggs Whitlock steal the answer scroll from the Davis Alpha Residence?""Or she cheated. She was sleeping thirty minutes into the exam while the rest of the Prodigy Class was sweating blood!"I step through the arched wooden doo

    "So you actually think Joxie Whitlock failed the Silverpine prelims just because she closed her eyes halfway through the morning testing session?" Ace Marlow growls, his broad, scar-covered hands slamming onto the mahogany surface of Headmistress Birdsong’s Office as his heavy wolf-aura flares, thick with the scent of pine needle and burnt ash.I stand near the heavy velvet curtains, my broad, heavy frame resting casually against the stone pillar. My thick arms stay crossed tight over my chest, my dark eyes watching the pack instructors fight over my name like dogs over a dry bone. My linen tunic stretches tight across my thick shoulders, my human blood completely unbothered by the heavy Alpha pressure rolling through the room.Mr. Booker stands his ground near the hearth, his yellowed canines bared in a bitter, mocking sneer. "Look at the testing parameters, Ace! The alchemical formulas for silver-leaf suppression draughts are designed to crush full-grown warriors! Walker Reed could

    "Arrogant nonsense!" Mr. Booker barked, slamming his fist onto the wooden desk. "You handed in your paper last! If you finished early, why didn't you hand it in first?""Because your rules state candidates cannot leave the hall until the hour bell tolls," I replied, my dark eyes locking onto his with cold, terrifying calm. "Why would I stand at your desk for thirty minutes when I could rest my eyes?""Enough of this circus!" the Vice-Rector shouted, his patience completely snapping as he pointed a trembling finger at the door. "Human arrogance or not, she is expelled! Drag her out of the Mooncrest Iron Gate before the Davis Enforcers arrive!"Before any of the guards could take a step toward me, a violent, deafening explosion rocked the entire building.The heavy, iron-reinforced outer doors of Headmistress Birdsong's Office were instantly blown inward, shattering into thousands of jagged wooden splinters that rained across the room. The sheer force of the impact blew the heavy velvet

    "You expect me to believe an unshifted human walked into the BrainSpark Nationals prelims and fell asleep because the questions were too hard?" Ace Marlow barked, his heavy iron broadsword clattering against his hip as his Alpha wolf aura flared, filling Headmistress Birdsong’s Office with the thick, suffocating scent of ozone and scorched oak.I stood in the center of the office, my broad, heavy frame anchored firmly to the rug while the air practically vibrated with shifter aggression. My thick arms remained crossed over my chest, my dark eyes completely indifferent to the chaos.Mr. Booker sneered from behind his stack of trial ledgers, his yellowed canines flashing in the dim light. "I do not expect you to believe anything, Ace. I saw her with my own eyes. Thirty minutes into the prelims at the Wolf Biology Wing, she dropped her pen and went fast asleep on her desk! While every pure-blood shifter from the Prodigy Class was sweating blood over the alchemical formulas, this... this
