The man trembled uncontrollably, sweat pouring down his face as he knelt before Mason.

“M-My brother… he said he took a job from a werewolf. I thought he was just being paranoid—until they killed him. I saw it… with my own eyes,” he choked, voice breaking.

Mason’s eyes narrowed.

“We were supposed to meet… he was going to hand me a video. A recording of his deal with that man,” the man continued. “But as I neared the meeting spot, I saw several black cars parked along the street… something felt wrong. So I didn’t go in—I hid. I watched.”

He swallowed hard, the memory visibly tormenting him.

“My brother got there earlier than we agreed. They ambushed him… they shifted. Right there in the open. They tore him apart like he was nothing. Then they staged the scene. Made it look like a bear or a rabid animal killed him.” His voice cracked. “But it wasn’t. It was a cover-up.”

Mason’s jaw clenched, his eyes burning with fury, but he said nothing.

“They took the recording. But before he died, m

    Mason claimed Aria’s lips with an urgency that ignited fire between them, raw, hungry, and unstoppable. His kiss wasn’t just passion, it was desperation, like a man starved for air finally tasting oxygen. He devoured her mouth, exploring her with a fervent intensity that stole her breath and left her trembling.His tongue swept into hers, tasting every sigh she released, every moan she couldn’t suppress. And still, it wasn’t enough. He wanted more, he needed more.His hands moved across her body like he was mapping sacred ground, memorizing every curve, every quiver of her skin under his fingertips. He was lost in her, completely and willingly.Aria clung to him just as fiercely, her hands roaming over his chest, his back, holding him as if he were the only anchor in a world spinning too fast. The heat between them was undeniable, burning wildly, consuming every inch of space that dared separate them.Mason finally tore his lips from hers, only to trail hot, open-mouthed kisses down

    It was the second night since Shaman Orun had been summoned back to the city to assist Mason and Julian, leaving Aria in the care of his apprentices. Though the young shamans followed his ritual to the letter, the process was slower—less refined—and far more draining. Each session left Aria’s limbs trembling, her body sore, and her spirit cracked open a little wider than before. But it gave the same result, so she was fine with it.Still, she kept to her routine. After every cleansing, no matter how weak she felt, she would drag herself to Nina’s room. That quiet ritual, reading a book under the warm glow of the bedside lamp, Nina tucked into her little cocoon of blankets, was the only thing that felt right and gave her peace in her life right now.But tonight, as she returned to the guest villa, weariness clinging to her like a second skin, she was met with the sound of laughter. Cecil and Samantha were sprawled on the sofa, faces lit up by the flickering screen, the echoes of a com

    Aria stared down at the flowers in her hands—fresh, fragrant, and unexpected. Her fingers tightened around the stems as a storm of emotions twisted in her chest. Confusion. Gratitude. And something far more dangerous… hope.She wasn’t ready for hope. It was not the right time for matters of the heart. Her life is a mess right now, and she wants to fix that part first. No time for distractions, even if that distraction is Mason.“Well, well, what’s this?” Sam’s voice cut through the moment like a blade, mischievous and direct. She plopped down across from Aria, a sly grin tugging at her lips. “What’s really going on between you and my cousin?”The question jerked Aria from her trance. She glanced at Sam, blinking. “I… he’s helping with my parents’ case. And I’m helping him look after Nina and her trauma from the accident. That’s all.”Sam tilted her head, her blonde waves catching the light as her teasing gaze narrowed. “Just that? So… why the flowers? Is he thanking you for breathing

    Cecil stood frozen, her entire body rigid with shock. Her wide eyes locked onto Jacob’s. Everyone around them held their breath, waiting for her reaction.Then, Jacob stepped forward, his expression raw with longing. He pulled her tightly into his chest in a sudden, possessive embrace. “Please,” he murmured. “Say something… my mate.”“No!”Cecil’s voice rang out like a whipcrack.With a powerful shove, she hurled Jacob backward with enough force to knock him off his feet and send him crashing into the sand. She didn’t wait to see the aftermath—she turned and bolted toward the guest villa.“Cecil!” Aria shouted after her. Without hesitation, she spun to Matilda. “I’m sorry, I need to go after her. I’ll see you at dinner!” she called, already sprinting after her best friend.Jacob sat dazed in the sand, his breath knocked out of him—not from the fall, but from the shock. He could only watch as Cecil disappeared from view, her scent still lingering in the salt-laced breeze.Standing near

    The sun is preparing to dip lower on the horizon in the beach house, but the battle has only begun.Aria adjusted the wrappings around her knuckles as Cecil rolled her shoulders, already barefoot in the sand, her eyes glinting with mischief and experience. “You sure you’re ready for this, Miss I’m-Still-Recovering?” Cecil teased, circling slowly.Aria grinned, her stance steady. “Try me. Just don’t go crying to Matilda if I land a hit.”From the sidelines, Nina was perched on a towel with her nanny Maria and Matilda, who sipped tea under the shade of a huge old tree. Nina’s tiny fists were in the air, full of glee. “Go, Auntie Aria! Go, Teacher Cecil! Fight! Fight!”With a mock growl, Cecil lunged first, a blur of motion honed from years of combat training. Aria barely dodged, pivoting to the side just in time, her body responding faster than it had in weeks or perhaps years, ever since Elliot started poisoning her. Her wolf stirred beneath her skin, alert, eager.“You’re getting fast

    Mason’s eyes flared, his fists clenched at his sides. A growl vibrated in his chest—low, guttural, barely restrained.But Julian couldn't control his fist from flying to Jude's face once again.“Who is it?” he demanded, his voice now a sharp snarl. “Who’s behind all of this?”Jude leaned forward as far as the chains would allow, the silver sizzling against his neck. His voice dropped to a whisper, venomous and cold.“They’re already watching you, Chairman. And they’re not afraid of your Lycan blood.”Mason’s fury rose like a tide—but beneath it, a dark realization twisted in his gut.This went far deeper than Elliot. And if Jude was right, they were all standing at the edge of a war they couldn’t see coming.And before Mason could hurl another question, Jude’s head snapped back, and a shrill, guttural laugh erupted from his throat. It echoed off the walls like a death knell. Then—A sickening sound split the air—something snapping inside his mouth.Foam burst from his lips.His body c
