Talia’s POV

The afternoon sun hung high when I reached the training grounds. At the far end, Solon stood alone. Sweat glistened on his skin as he drove his fists into a wooden target. The dull thud echoed through the field again and again. Each strike harder than the last.

As I approached, I could smell his blood on the wind. “Solon,” I called, but he did not stop.

Blood streaked from a split across his knuckles, and his chest rose and fell in short bursts. His arms were covered in bruises. I w

    Talia’s POV“We were ambushed by rogues,” Donald managed to say after a long pause. “There were dozens… We had no time to prepare. They killed two of us before encircling us,” Donald replied, his voice breaking on the last few words. Leslie offered him water. He drank it, cleared his throat, and continued. "It was as if they knew we would be there. Their leader practically told us so."“Tell us about the leader,” Nolan said.“He was an Alpha for sure. He gave us an ultimatum: hand over the package or die. He called himself Jason,” Donald said.Anger moved through me in a wave. Solon snarled and punched a hole into the wall. This meant one or two things. Either Jason had another spy within Silverfang or Jason was camping out watching us which meant getting potion replacements was out of the question.“What happened to the potions?” Leslie asked.“When we refused, my friend…he…” Donald stopped. He frowned and his eyes began to tear up as he was reliving what happened.“It’s okay. Take

    Talia’s POVDella still did not respond. It was as if she was trying to figure out what she wanted to say, which was unlike her."Just tell me what is going on," I urged."I think it will be easier if I show you," Della finally replied."I do not like the sound of that at all," Leslie muttered as we followed her out of the office.I expected Della to lead us to the entrance where arriving warriors would normally be received, but when I realized she was leading us out of the pack house and to the hospital, anxiety began to build in my chest.‘Do not panic. They could have run into a complication,’ my wolf offered.‘If that were the case, Della would have just said that,’ I answered. ‘She is choosing her words carefully. When has Della ever done that? This is far worse than a complication.’Before my wolf could respond, we were hit with the scent of blood in the hospital corridor. My wolf stiffened within me. All her reassurances left as quickly as the fresh air in the hospital. Someone

    Talia’s POV"No need," Leslie announced. "I already contacted Alpha Landon. I knew that if you agreed there would be no benefit to waiting even a single day. Landon responded within the hour. He had the potions prepared and sealed by nightfall and his warriors departed before dawn."“When are they leaving?” I asked."They are enroute now. They left Lonefur territory this morning,” Leslie answered with a smile. Solon pulled her into a hug and kissed her, causing her to blush.I let out a sigh of relief and fell back on the pillows. "Leslie, thank you.""No need. This is my way of fixing what I did,” Leslie replied.“What are you talking about?” I asked.“I should not have spoken about preparing for a funeral while you were in sorrow. You had just watched something we both hoped would work, make things worse instead,” Leslie continued. “As a healer, I should have acknowledged what you were going through instead of allowing my own frustrations and pride take over. I am sorry.""You were

    Talia’s POV"What do you mean?” I asked as I sat up even more.I couldn’t help but feel hopeful. Leslie had resigned herself to giving up, but she was now saying she found a solution. That means she is very confident it would work. I knew I shouldn’t get my hopes up too much, but I couldn’t help myself. “No discussion until you finish all of your food,” Solon interjected before Leslie could respond.I stared at the empty bowl on the tray and the half-eaten roll. “Are you serious?”“Yes, eat the rest of that roll and then we will continue,” Solon replied.I frowned and quickly shoved the roll into my mouth. I nearly choked as I tried to eat it as fast as possible. Nolan coughed, trying to hide a laugh. He handed me a glass of water which I quickly drank. I placed the glass down on the tray and said, “Okay, done, Leslie what do you mean you have a solution?”“Don’t get excited yet,” Leslie warned. “I want to be clear about what this is. I cannot cure your father. I can only buy time.”

    Nolan’s POVThe pain and emotions faded as quickly as it came when we were only a foot away from the hospital. This bothered me more than actually feeling Talia’s pain. What happened?‘She’s still alive. I can still feel her,’ my wolf reassured me, but I was still panicking.Della was pacing in the waiting room. Nothing was torn apart or destroyed. There wasn’t the scent of blood in the air, so rogues hadn’t broken through our defenses. Why was Talia in so much pain?When Della saw us, she walked to us. "What happened?" I asked before Della could speak.Della swallowed, her voice tight. “We tried a new treatment but it failed. The King got worse. Leslie said there’s nothing more she can do, but Talia wouldn’t accept it. They argued. The healers had to sedate Talia before she completely broke down.”“Where is she?” Solon asked."She is in room 4. She is physically stable, but she donated a lot of blood for Leslie’s treatment, and the breakdown took it out of her,” Della replied. Solo

    Nolan’s POV“That’s the last one,” Solon said as I snapped the rogue’s neck and his body collapsed to the ground.I counted over a hundred in total by the time it was done. They had come in waves. The first wave hit before we had fully organized. The second arrived when we were already stretched thin.Solon had taken the left flank. I had taken the right. We held both, but not without cost. Fifteen of Silverfang's warriors were severely wounded and five were dead.“Where did they come from?” Solon asked.“The Rogue King….Jason must’ve sent them,” I answered. “We need to check in on the other areas,” Solon stated.We found Marco and Derek near the southern gate. As Solon’s Beta, Derek was directing two of his men to secure the gate latch where a rogue had damaged the mechanism during the fight. Marco was checking on the wounded warriors. He had a cut above his brow that had bled down the side of his face and dried there.“Marco, Derek,” I greeted.“Good to see that you two are not in
