ETHAN'S POV

The pack gathered because they always did.

Even broken, even bleeding, even terrified, they came when I called. Wolves limped into the courtyard. Some leaned on each other. Some carried the weight of fever behind their eyes and fought to keep control of their bodies. Smoke still drifted from the ruined wing of the packhouse, and the air smelled like antiseptic.

I stood in front of them and felt every one of them through the bond.

Not just the healthy ones. All of them.

I felt the infected wolves burning from the inside, the pathogen gnawing at their blood and bones. I felt the injured wolves fighting pain that would have dropped any normal person. I felt children hiding behind parents who did not know how to promise safety anymore.

Forty.

That was what we had. Forty wolves who could still fight without risking immediate transformation. Forty against more than a hundred transformed wolves already on the move, all coordinated, all enhanced, all answering to a single will.

  • THE ALPHA’S GHOST   CHAPTER 74

    ETHAN'S POVThe truth tore through what little stability I had left.Dr. Hallen Liston. The backup doctor. The woman who had stepped in seamlessly when Sarah vanished. The one who had treated my wolves when they were sick, injured, terrified. The one who had looked parents in the eye and told them their children would be all right.Jon Tulip’s daughter.The realization cracked something deep in my chest. Through the mate bond, I felt Kaye’s horror mirror my own, sharp and suffocating. Every moment replayed in my mind with brutal clarity. Every medical exam. Every blood draw. Every carefully recorded symptom and recovery time.It had all been data.She had not been healing my pack.She had been cataloging them.“You ran the numbers on us,” I said hoarsely, staring at her twisted form. “Every one of us.”Hallen Liston’s smile widened, bright and pleased, as if I had just complimented her work. “Of course,” she said cheerfully. “Sarah trained me well before she left. Continuity matters i

  • THE ALPHA’S GHOST   CHAPTER 73

    KAYE'S POVFor one stretched, horrible moment, no one moved.The battlefield seemed to pause, as if even the warped wolves sensed the shift. Fire crackled. Someone groaned in pain. Ash drifted through the air like falling snow. And still, everyone stood frozen, eyes darting from face to face, searching for the traitor Jon Tulip had hidden among us.The eldest daughter.Someone trusted.Someone close.My heart pounded so hard it hurt. Through the mate bond, I felt Ethan’s mind racing, names flashing, memories replaying with brutal speed. Wolves we had leaned on. Wolves who had stood beside us in meetings, in grief, in planning.I forced myself to breathe and let my senses open fully.The silver veins along my arms burned hot, reacting to the pathogen network still screaming across the clearing. I followed the pull, the subtle wrongness I had learned to recognize over weeks of fear and betrayal.And then I smelled it.A scent that had been there for days. For weeks. Familiar enough that

  • THE ALPHA’S GHOST   CHAPTER 72

    ETHAN'S POVThe truth hit like an explosion inside my chest.Through the mate bond, I felt Kaye’s world collapse in real time. The moment Miriam spoke, something fundamental inside her cracked open and gave way. The certainty she had clung to for years, the belief that her father had tried to stop the nightmare instead of fueling it, shattered completely. Grief tore through her first, sharp and suffocating, followed by disbelief so strong it almost stopped her heart.Then came rage.Not wild rage. Not screaming fury.The kind that goes quiet and deadly.I felt it coil inside her like a blade being drawn slowly from its sheath.Her father had not just been involved.He had sacrificed his own pack.He had handed wolves over to Jon Tulip and watched them be torn apart piece by piece for research. The revelation poisoned everything Kaye had carried with her for six years. Her memories twisted under the weight of it. Every defense she had built around his innocence crumbled.I staggered un

  • THE ALPHA’S GHOST   CHAPTER 71

    KAYE'S POVI turned toward the forest and felt my heart fall through the ground.They were coming out of the trees in uneven lines, shapes tearing free from shadow and stepping into firelight. At first I thought they were more transformed wolves, more silver eyes and stolen bodies. But the moment my gaze focused, the truth hit harder than any blow.These were not soldiers.These were the missing.Miriam came first, or what used to be Miriam. Her body was wrong, stretched too tall, her limbs bent at angles that made my stomach twist. Fur clung to her in patches, burned away in others, revealing skin that looked thick and scarred like it had been grown instead of healed. Her jaw hung slightly open, teeth too many, too sharp, arranged like someone had guessed instead of known.Behind her came Owen.Then Alex.Then dozens more.Wolves who had vanished one by one over months. Wolves the pack had mourned. Wolves we had searched for until hope ran dry.They were alive.But they were not wolv

  • THE ALPHA’S GHOST   CHAPTER 70

    ETHAN'S POVThe battlefield had turned into something unrecognizable.Vanessa moved through it like a storm, a fury wrapped in skin and blood, her knife flashing with deadly precision. Every slash, every cut, was calculated, designed to turn the chaos into something worse. The infection spread like wildfire, each wolf she struck becoming a vector, each wound a new disaster waiting to happen.I could feel the poison still spreading inside me, slow and brutal, but it paled in comparison to what Vanessa was doing. Her blood was a weapon, not just a carrier for the pathogen, but the very thing that turned the fight into a race against time. She wasn’t simply fighting. She was making sure the battlefield itself became a breeding ground for destruction.Every wolf she touched had a second transformation to go through a transformation that was worse than the first. And as the infection spread, the wolves would be forced into the same mindless frenzy she had brought with her.I felt my enforc

  • THE ALPHA’S GHOST   CHAPTER 69

    KAYE'S POVEvery moment of my life led to this choice.Do I surrender to Jon Tulip and save the lives of my pack? Or do I let Vanessa’s device activate and kill 120 infected wolves, those trapped in bodies they couldn’t control, their minds screaming inside their own skin?The weight of it crushed me.I could feel Ethan’s desperation through the bond, his frantic pleas echoing through my chest. His voice was raw, pleading with me not to give in, not to make this decision, to fight and find another way. He loved me, and he needed me. I could feel it, deep in my bones, even as my own heart ached with the weight of the choice I had to make.But I couldn’t watch innocent wolves die.I couldn’t.The pack had already lost so much. And Jon Tulip’s plan was built on breaking us, on turning us against each other. I wasn’t about to be the one who let that happen, no matter what it cost me.“I will go,” I whispered, the words trembling in the bond.Ethan’s pain and fury surged, slamming into me,
