LOGINROWAN’S POVI left Gamma Caleb to go freshen up and treat my wound. The hallway was unusually quiet as I walked to my room.After everything that had happened, the pack and the Alpha’s mansion should have still been buzzing but most of the warriors were gone with my father, and the rest were scattered, preparing for whatever came next.As I turned to the corridor that led to my room, my mind was still running through everything, Moon Hollow, the ambush, the unknown message, and all the missing pieces that refused to connect.That was when I saw Silva. She stepped out of her room without noticing me and closed the door behind her quietly. She froze in her steps the moment her eyes landed on me. Something flickered across her face, but it quickly disappeared, and she turned immediately, reaching for the door handle like she hadn’t just seen me.My eyes narrowed at her as I began to walk closer to her. “Silva.”She didn’t respond. Instead, she tried to slip back inside.I moved faster,
ROWAN’S POVBy the time I got back to Crescent Pack, the sky had already begun to darken.The warriors at the border had brought me back home because all the vehicles had been stolen by the attackers. The bodies of the dead warriors were properly collected, and a message was sent to their families.The moment I stepped into the mansion, a few warriors came to my aid.“Where is my father?” I asked, seeing that the surroundings were a bit empty.“He already left,” one of them replied. “He led the troops to Silverhaven not long after you left.”I nodded. We had no time to waste. Moon Hollow had fallen into the wrong hands. We couldn't let Silverhaven slip out of our fingers, too.“Who was left in charge?” I asked.“Gamma Caleb,” he answered.I didn’t waste another second to reply. I marched straight inside because I needed to talk to him anyway.Gamma Caleb was exactly where I expected him to be, in the war room, standing over a large map, issuing quiet instructions to a few remaining w
ROWAN’S POVI didn’t waste anymore as I stood up and walked toward the door. “Prepare a unit,” I ordered coldly as I stepped out of the war room. “We’re heading to Moon Hollow.”“That's a dangerous idea,” my father countered. “We don't even know who we are dealing with.”“But we can't also sit back while someone is out there impersonating us,” I replied. “Start preparing the warriors to attack Silverhaven, I'll join you when I figure out what is going on in Moon Hollow Pack.”My father nodded. “Be careful, Rowan.” “Yes, Father.” I made my way out of the conference room and joined the group of warriors that were waiting outside for me.I got into the car immediately and the driver drove off to Moon Hollow with the other cars following behind mine.The journey to Moon Hollow was so fast but also silent. The closer we got, the air became heavy with tension. There was an unease feeling at the pit of my stomach but I chose to ignore it.I needed to find out which pack had the audacity to
ROWAN’S POVThe next morning, the academy emptied faster than I expected. The once-bustling grounds were reduced to scattered footsteps, departing vehicles, and the distant echoes of farewells.Everyone was going back to their packs and probably planning how to make the pack the next Silverhaven.I stood beside my father as Crescent Pack prepared to leave, my expression calm while my mind worked through the next phase of everything.My phone buzzed in my pocket and I brought it out to check it. It was a message from an unknown number.I frowned slightly and opened the message.‘I knew I could trust you to bring down Silverhaven. You really kept your word.’My brows furrowed as I stared at the screen for a few seconds.Kept my word? Who the fuck sent this?A slow unease crept into my mind as I tried to think of who could have sent that message. What did the person know about my plan?I didn’t like not knowing who was watching me. I slipped my phone back into my pocket, my expression
ROWAN’S POVThe conference room slowly emptied as all the elders began to murmur among each other as they walked out.The meeting ends with the Head Council declaring that Alpha Killian and the Head Warrior would remain locked up until the new leader is chosen.Everyone agreed but deep down everyone was trying to become the next leader of the Big Six.I made my way out of the conference room with a satisfied smile on my face. Everything had fallen into place almost too perfectly. I gave myself a pat on the back for pulling it off.“Rowan.” Someone called as I was going to meet my father in his lodge. I turned to see Gabriella and the others. “Oh hey guys.”“What was the council decision?” Gabriella asked.“Alpha William was stripped of his title while Alpha Killian and his head Warrior would be locked up till the new leader would be chosen,” I explained.Gabriella glanced back at the others before looking at me again. “So who is going to be the next leader?”“Every Alpha has a chance
ROWAN’S POVThe next morning, the conference room felt heavier than the battlefield yesterday.Tension sat thick in the air as all the ruling Alpha of the packs and council members took their seats around the long polished table.Silva and I stood slightly behind, yet somehow at the center of it all.We weren't brought in as just students. We were the catalysts of everything that went down during the final match, so they thought it was only right that we were in the meeting.It was the Head Council who actually insisted on us being there and the others had no choice but to agree.Alpha William sat in the middle of the room with his shoulders tense. His once commanding presence now reduced to something brittle. The murmurs around the room hadn’t stopped since the meeting began.It revolved around the fact that he has an illegitimate child and had the audacity to dethrone his nephew.The Head Council leaned forward, fingers interlocked. “Silva,” he called calmly, though there was an edg

ELIAS’S POVWhen I returned to my room, the first thing I noticed was Rowan pacing around the room. His hands were clenched into fists and his jaw was tight as he moved back and forth with his head down.He didn't even notice me until I announced my presence. “Rowan?” I called.He raised his head s
ELIAS'S POVI froze and scrunched my eyebrows together. Why does Selena's brother want to see me?The Junior professor took permission from the professor taking the class and I followed him quietly to the staff quarters. When I arrived, I found them waiting in the room. Selena was standing stiffly
ELIAS’S POVBy the time school hours ended, I felt drained out. Everything irritated me, from the noise in the halls to the way people looked at me.
