Jason’s POV

Night settled in with steady rain against the windows. I had my wardrobe open and a suitcase on the bed. Shirts lay folded in stacks. A suit for formal calls sat on top. I checked the laces on my boots, then rolled two belts and set them near the edge.

Earlier, I heard the commotion from outside, knowing that Viki had just died. I didn’t feel pity for her. She had fooled me. Thankfully, the Luna Ceremony hadn’t been completed. The Luna link never formed, so the death shock would not pass through the mate mark.

The door burst open without a knock causing me to jump in surprise. Henry stood in the doorway looking frazzled. His chest rose and fell quickly and water from the tips of his hair pooled on the floor as if he came running in from the rain.

“What the hell, Henry?” I scolded.

“Alpha… Jason,” he gasped, struggling to catch his breath. “Viki… she escaped.”

“What? What did you say?”

“She escaped,” Henry repeated. “The body in the dungeon isn’t her.”

My stomach dropped.

    Talia’s POVNolan lifted the glass in his hand to toast me. Then, he tilted his head toward the bar and said, “Come. We can talk where it’s quieter.” Without waiting for my agreement, he started walking back and I followed. Della winked at me as we walked back to the bar. Inwardly, I groaned. I knew she wasn’t going to behave and pester me about this after the party was over. I sat back down next to her and Nolan took a seat a stool away from me.“Thank you,” I said quietly. “For taking me to the hospital last time.”I hated that I owed him anything, least of all gratitude. Worse still was the fragmented memories of that night kept returning at the worst time. I still couldn’t believe I begged him to mark me.“It was nothing,” Nolan responded. What? The last time I thanked him he had been rude to me. Why was his response different this time?“You clean up well, Alpha Nolan,” Della chimed in, leaning around me. She gave him a bold once-over. “Very handsome. You almost look like a g

    Talia’s POVThe infirmary walls had begun to feel like a cage. For days I had been watched over by doctors, healers, and the occasional guard, while my father and Solon remained consumed by the endless wave of visiting Alphas. Due to the altercation with Jason, the doctor had changed his diagnosis and ordered me to remain in the infirmary for a few more days. Because of that, I was missing everything.Silverfang had become crowded overnight. High-ranking wolves from nearly every pack had arrived, each bringing gifts, entourages, and the heavy weight of politics. My father received them in the great hall, Solon shadowed him constantly, and I was left behind, expected to recover quietly.The truth was that I already felt fine. The soreness from my collapse had faded, the dizziness passed. The only thing missing was my wolf, and even that silence had become something I tried not to dwell on. I longed for movement, for training, for the rhythm of sparring to ground me. Staying in bed only

    Talia’s POVJason’s question echoed in my mind: “You… You are the Princess? You’re the Alpha King’s daughter?” I forced myself to keep my expression composed. If I panicked now, everything would fall apart.“Answer me!” Jason snapped, pulling me out of my thoughts.The guards looked at me in confusion. They were waiting for me to tell them what to do. I had to think of a way to get out of this situation without revealing to Jason I was the Princess.One of the guards noticed my discomfort, assessing the situation, and said, “Royal Guest Talia, how can we assist you?”I straightened my posture against the pillows and narrowed my eyes at the guards. “The Princess left earlier and told you not to let anyone disturb my rest. Are you incapable of following a simple order?”“We thought you would have wanted to see him,” The guard responded quickly before the others could question why I was acting as if I wasn’t the princess.“You thought wrong,” I snapped. “All I want is peace and quiet. Is

    Talia’s POVSolon and Della stared at me, both clearly shaken. Della was the first to recover, rushing out to call the doctor. Solon stayed at my bedside. The doctor arrived quickly and said, "How are we feeling, Princess?""Tired, doctor. I can't feel my wolf," I whispered, my voice cracking.The doctor looked surprised and said, “I felt your wolf earlier. Your wolf was also weakened by the heat. Maybe you just overlooked her.” He checked my pulse, studied my breathing, and pressed his palm against my chest. His brow furrowed as he searched for my wolf.Finally, he leaned back with a furrowed brow. “Your wolf has indeed gone silent,” he said.“Do you know what caused this? Was it the heat?" Solon asked.“I cannot tell whether her wolf has disappeared or is in a deep dormant state,” the doctor explained. "The Princess going into heat should not have caused her wolf to go dormant; however, it did happen on a full moon night. So, it could potentially be the cause."This could not be

    Talia’s POVWhen I finally awoke, I felt as though I had been struck by a truck. My body ached as if I had spent all night sparring. I blinked several times, waiting for my vision to adjust to the light.“You’re awake!” Solon said. He sat in the chair at my bedside and immediately grabbed my hand. “How do you feel?”“Like I have been run over,” I admitted with a faint groan. I looked around and noticed I wasn’t in my lovely room. “Where am I? Am I in the infirmary?”Della was sitting by the window, balancing a tray across her lap. The moment she heard my voice, she jumped to her feet, nearly dropping the tray to the floor.“Thank the Goddess you’re awake. You frightened us half to death!” she said. “You have been unconscious for two days, Talia.”My eyes widened. “Two days?” I balked.“Yes,” Solon said grimly. “When they brought you in, I thought…”I squeezed his hand and smiled weakly. “I am alright, Solon. Do not dwell on it.”Della hurried forward. She sat the tray on my lap before

    Jason’s POVI paced in my room waiting for Henry to return to give me an update. My thoughts had been chaotic all night. I had given Henry the order to sabotage the mechanism in the Alpha King’s private library. It was the perfect trap. Nolan wouldn’t be able to resist sneaking in. Then he would be stuck until someone found him, preferably the Alpha King himself or Solon.But he hadn’t been caught.Instead, all I’d heard was that Nolan had sent Talia to the hospital. There had been no violent clash with Solon. By all logic, if he had been discovered in that library, Solon would have arrested him and sent him to the dungeon. So why was Nolan walking around as if he hadn’t overstepped boundaries?My thoughts circled back to the one detail that kept bothering me. Talia had been in the library as well. The library wasn’t a place for common wolves. It was the Alpha King’s domain. No outsiders were allowed.So why had she been there? Was Solon actually taking her seriously as a potential ma
