KAYE'S POV

Warmth reached me first.

Not comfort. Just enough heat to make my body notice the absence of cold. My eyes opened slowly, blinking against pale morning light. The ceiling above me was smooth, faintly yellow, unfamiliar. Not stone. Not the basement. Not the freezer.

My wolf snapped awake in the same instant.

Fear slammed through me so fast I almost bolted upright. She pressed tight against my ribs, trembling, warning me that this place was worse than where I had been. Above ground. Higher in the packhouse. Surrounded by wolves. No shadows. No escape routes she could scent.

I forced myself to sit up carefully. A blanket slid down my shoulders. My muscles screamed as warmth crawled painfully back into my hands and feet. Pins and needles burned through my fingers.

The room was small and clean. A narrow bed. A dresser. A window cracked open just enough to let in cold air and pine scent. Second floor. I knew the difference instinctively.

And I was not alone.

Ethan sat near the win

  • THE ALPHA’S GHOST   CHAPTER 121

    ETHAN'S POVThe war does not wait.That is the first truth I accept as I stand in the rebuilt command room of Blackwater Pack, staring at maps that stretch across walls and screens. Red markers blink across continents. Old scars reopened. New threats unfolding faster than we can bury the dead from the last ones.Theo is alive.That single fact changes everything.I give orders without hesitation. Enforcers move immediately. Patrols double. Allied packs are contacted through secured channels. Veilkeeper strike teams go on full alert. There is no confusion in my voice, no uncertainty. Blackwater Pack has survived too much to freeze now.If Theo is regenerating, we do not wait for him to stand fully formed.We strike first.But there is another truth pressing just as hard.Kaye.Through the mate bond, I feel her resolve long before she speaks. It is steady. Certain. The same determination that carried her through captivity, death, and rebirth.She finds me after the initial mobilization,

  • THE ALPHA’S GHOST   CHAPTER 120

    KAYE'S POV I watch the video again.Not once or twice, but five times in a row, sitting on the edge of the bed while the night presses against the windows. Each time, I look for cracks. For hesitation. For something that does not belong.Subject Zero looks straight into the camera.My mother.Her silver eyes are brighter than mine, sharper somehow, like they have seen too much and learned how to survive it. The room behind her is bare. Stone walls. No windows. No signs that tell me where she is.“Kaye,” she says calmly. “If you are watching this, then you already know I survived the collapse.”She pauses, as if measuring how much truth I can take.“I did not escape it,” she continues. “I used it. The energy tore me apart, but instead of resisting, I absorbed it. I let it finish what Jon Tulip and Theo started. I am not just enhanced anymore. I am something else now. Something that can exist where dimensions break.”My chest tightens.She explains how she disappeared after the collaps

  • THE ALPHA’S GHOST   CHAPTER 119

    ETHAN'S POVKaye does not say anything at first.She simply holds the phone out to me, her hand steady even though I can feel the tension rolling off her through the mate bond. The moment I see the image on the screen, my chest tightens.The woman in the photograph looks exactly like her.Not similar. Not close.Exact.Same eyes. Same face. Same presence that feels too large for the frame holding it.“Impossible,” I say before I can stop myself.Kaye nods slowly. “That is what I thought too.”We sit at the small table in our quarters, the rebuilt walls still smelling faintly of new wood. Outside, the pack is quiet. Safe. For once.This message threatens all of that.“She was at the center of the collapse,” I say, forcing myself to think like an Alpha instead of a mate. “No one survives that. Not even her.”“She survived worse,” Kaye replies. “So did Theo. And she was his equal.”I hate that she is right.We spend hours tracing the message. Veilkeeper analysts route it through systems

  • THE ALPHA’S GHOST   CHAPTER 118

    KAYE'S POVSix months can change everything.Blackwater Pack still carries scars, but it breathes again. New walls stand where fire and explosives once tore the packhouse apart. Fresh timber smells mix with pine and snow. The ceremonial clearing has been rebuilt stone by stone, the names of the dead carved deeper this time, so they are never forgotten.I walk through the territory every morning, not because I have to, but because it reminds me what we saved.Wolves train in the fields again. Pups chase each other between adults who laugh more quietly than they used to. Grief still lives here, but it no longer owns the place.Neither do I.I stop near the tree line and close my eyes.The world opens.I can feel them. Not just here, but far beyond Blackwater. Transformed wolves scattered across continents. Faint pulses of wrongness inside their bodies, like distant stars that should not exist. Six months ago, the noise nearly drove me mad. Now it is a map. Clear. Manageable.I choose on

  • THE ALPHA’S GHOST   CHAPTER 117

    ETHAN'S POVI wake to cold.Not the sharp shock of it, but the deep kind that seeps into bone and makes every breath feel heavy. My eyes open slowly, blinking against pale light that reflects off snow and ice. For a long moment, I do not remember where I am. I only know that my body feels like it has been dragged through fire and then dropped into winter.Then the mate bond stirs.Kaye.I push myself up with a groan, my muscles screaming in protest. The wilderness stretches around me in every direction. Snow covered ground. Jagged rocks. A sky so wide it makes me feel small. No buildings. No roads. No sign of the facility that nearly killed us both.We survived.My heart starts pounding harder as memory rushes back. The dimensional collapse. The fall. The impossible pain that tore through the bond as Kaye held reality together long enough for us to escape.“Kaye,” I say, my voice rough.She is sitting several feet away, perfectly still.At first glance, she does not look injured. Then

  • THE ALPHA’S GHOST   CHAPTER 116

    KAYE'S POVPain is the first thing I know.Not sharp pain or clean pain, but something endless and everywhere at once. It feels like my body is being torn into pieces and rebuilt in the same breath. Like every cell is screaming its own name and forgetting it again.The dimensional collapse is not light or darkness. It is pressure. It crushes inward and pulls outward at the same time. Space twists. Time stutters. I feel myself stretch across moments, across places, across versions of who I was and who I am becoming.I would have lost myself if not for Ethan.Through the mate bond, I feel him pour into me. His strength. His will. His stubborn refusal to let go. It feels like warm hands on my back, holding me together when everything else is trying to rip me apart.Stay with me, he pushes through the bond, even though I know he is barely conscious. Stay.I cling to that single word like it is a rope.Then the world breaks.We are thrown out of the collapsing dimension like debris from an
