Talia’s POV

When I opened my eyes, I felt relieved. It had taken me so long to wake up. I continued to follow the voices until I finally was able to open my eyes.

A woman I didn’t recognize was sitting next to my bed, reading a book. I shifted in bed, trying to lean up which caused her to look up from her book. She gave me a small smile, as if she had been waiting for me to wake up. I then noticed Nolan slumped against the wall. His head rested back, and his skin was pale. A tube ran from his arm to mine.

I licked my dry lips and managed to say, “Nolan.”

His eyes quickly opened, and he turned his head toward me. He looked worn down, but hearing my voice seemed to give him energy. “You’re awake,” he said.

I cleared my throat and said, "How long...how long have I been out?"

"You’ve been unconscious for a week," Nolan answered.

His response surprised me. I really thought it had been longer. I turned back to the girl as she started to remove the bandages from my arms and shoulders.

    Nolan’s POVLeslie evaluated Talia’s condition. She checked her bandages and her last test results. She pressed her hand against Talia’s forehead and closed her eyes for a few seconds. Then, she pulled it back with a sharp sigh.“This doesn’t look good,” she said. “Based on her last test results from this morning, her fever is much higher now. The wolfsbane has spread through most of her system. If we don’t act now, she won’t make it.”Her words unsettled me, and I said curtly, “Then stop wasting time. Do what you need to do.”"Are you always this impatient?" she asked. I didn't answer her. Leslie rolled her eyes before pulling a small wooden box out of her bag. When she opened it, a bitter scent came from the dark green spring she pulled out of the box.“This is the Moonbane Herb,” Leslie explained.“I know what it is,” I responded. “Get on with it.”“Don’t rush me,” Leslie snapped. She cleared her throat and then continued, “Once you swallow it, the pain will be unbearable. It feel

    Rudolf’s POV By the third day, Talia’s fever worsened with every passing hour. The doctors had failed to break it. Solon, Della, and I stayed by her side around the clock, placing her in ice baths to cool her down. Every report on her condition told the same grim story: she was dying.Solon stormed into her room as I was changing out the rag for her forehead to a cooler one. “Father, this is madness. You should never have sent Jason and Nolan. They are unreliable. Jason only thinks of himself, and Nolan, he, I don’t know what he’s doing, but I know this will not end well for none of us.”“Do you think I had a choice? Our doctors admitted they could not save her. We needed Healer Leslie, and neither of us could leave Silverfang to search for her,” I replied. Word had spread about our defenses lacking. Both of us needed to be here to defend Silverfang in case someone tried to take advantage.“Still, trusting them was reckless.” Solon muttered.Before I could answer, Beta Logan burst in

    Nolan’s POVThe next day, Jason and I reached the Windpaw pack. Compared to Silverfang, it was small, but the territory was well cared for. It was a quiet, countryside pack territory. This was the kind of place where someone went to disappear and enjoy the simple things of life. Alpha Lane met us at the gate. He looked like a man who had spent most of his life outdoors. His skin was tanned, and his hands were rough with old callouses. Gray streaked through his beard and at his temples, but there was still strength in the set of his shoulders. “Greetings Alpha Jason.” He greeted Jason without hesitation, but when his gaze shifted to me, there was caution. “And you as well, Alpha Nolan.”I simply nodded to him, allowing Jason to rely on his connections to get us to the healer.“Greetings, Alpha Lane. We appreciate you seeing us on such short notice,” Jason responded.“You contacted me about Healer Leslie yesterday. I assume you came for her,” Alpha Lane added. “But I hope there won't

    Nolan’s POVI was halfway down the corridor to the Alpha King’s office when I heard quick footsteps close behind me. I glanced back and saw Solon turning the corner, moving fast. His eyes narrowed the moment he recognized me.“Why are you here?” he asked. “My father called for me.”“The Alpha King summoned me,” I said simply.Solon slowed to match my pace, watching me as if he expected me to admit something. “That is unusual. Why would he want you here?”“You can ask him,” I said, rolling my eyes. “I am just following orders.”“And when do you follow orders?” Solon asked and I didn’t respond to his taunt. “If you think you can use this to get closer to my sister, you are mistaken.”“I am here because the Alpha King requested it,” I said. “Nothing else.”We reached the double doors. Two guards stood aside and opened them. Inside, Jason was already positioned in front of the desk. He turned slightly when we entered, ready to speak. He stood in front of the Alpha King’s desk, looking too

    Jason’s POVThe Hunting Rite had ended, and I had taken first place. There should have been a celebration or at least a feast and yet, the Alpha King offered me no acknowledgment. Not even a word of praise or recognition. The silence gnawed at me. I had proven myself against the strongest alphas of every pack, yet it seemed to mean nothing to him.The other pack leaders left quickly as they had no reason to remain. My father, however, lingered. Clearly frustrated by the inaction of the Alpha King.“You should go to the Alpha King now,” he told me. “You earned this victory. Make use of it. Go demand your reward from the Alpha King. Solidify the marriage with the princess.”“The timing is wrong,” I argued.“What do you mean? You won. You are owed your reward,” my father countered.“Talia was kidnapped,” I started.“Not this again,” my father stated. “That omega doesn’t matter. The princess is what is important.”“I know that, but Talia is important to the Alpha King and Prince Solon. Sh
