DRAKE POV

The war council chamber was thick with tension with Maps spread all over the wide oak table, marked with the recent raids. I stood at the head with my palms flat on the wood, feeling them all staring at me.

“The northern ridge was a scouting party,” I stated sharply. “They were testing our defenses. They confirmed what we already suspected. They are not just raiding. They are planning something.”

Elder Marcus, whose caution often been seen as cowardice, cleared his throat. “Alpha, wit

    DRAKE POVThe pack house was buzzing with activity. Wolves hurried past carrying flowers, decorations, and trays of food. Today was Andre and Willow’s wedding, and everyone wanted it to be perfect.I stood in my chambers, in front of my huge mirror, adjusting the ceremonial robes. The deep blue fabric felt heavy on my shoulders, but it was in a good way. A proud way.The door burst open without a knock.Lucas strolled in, already dressed in his formal attire, with a huge grin on his face. “Looking good, Alpha. Very regal.”I rolled my eyes. “And where is Salome? Should you not be with her?”“The ladies are not here, yet.” Lucas waved his hand dismissively. “They are doing what ladies do. Making themselves beautiful, I suppose.”I smirked. “Salome is already beautiful. She does not need to try.”Lucas clutched his chest dramatically. “Watch it. That is my woman you are complimenting.”“Relax. I am just stating facts.”Lucas laughed and walked lazily to the window, to look out at the pr

    ANDRE POVI was deep in paperwork at my study, going through patrol schedules with Beta Ben. The stack of reports on my desk seemed endless. Though my arm still acher slightly, but I barely noticed it anymore. Then someone knocked sharply on the door which made both of us look up.“Come in.”A soldier entered, completely out of breath, but with a huge grin on his face. “Beta Andre! Good news. Sharon has been captured. Her own father haf brought in. They are on their way to the Alpha’s office now.”I stood up so fast that my chair fell back. “Finally.”Ben gathered his papers quickly. “It took them long enough.”We hurried through the corridors, with our footsteps echoing loudly in the corridors. When we reached Drake’s office, the door was already open.Drake sat behind his desk, with an unreadable expression on his face. Lucas leaned against the wall, with his arms crossed tightly on his chest. Two guards stood on either side of Sharon, who was looking so disheveled and wild eyed bu

    LILLIAN POV The greenhouse chambers were warm and filled with the light scent of blooming flowers. My mother moved among her plants silently, but her hands trembled as she touched each leaf. Salome sat on the sofa with her eyes red. And Lydia stood by the window, pretending to look out but occasionally wiping her cheeks. I watched them all with an heavy heart. Then I noticed my mother. She had moved to a corner and positioned her back to us, and I noticed her shoulders shaking with silent sobs. I crossed the room and wrapped my arms around her from behind. “Mama, why are you crying?” She turned, and I noticed her face wet with tears. “My baby is leaving….and I know, I know this might be the last time I see you before you go to the healer’s enclave. My throat became tight. “Mama…” She tried to smile through her tears, but it came out strained. “You know, I have never thought about moving to another city. But maybe….maybe I could come with you? Start over somewhere n

    ANDRE POVThe pack bar was quiet at this hour, Exactly just the way we liked it. Soft lights filled the room and the smell of aged whiskey filled the air.Drake sat on one stood, while Lucas on another. I leaned against the bar with a glass of whiskey in my good hand. My arm still acher sometimes, but the silver leaf extract had worked wonders. I could move it almost normally now.Drake raised his glass. “To surviving another crisis.”Lucas clinked his glass against Drake in a cheer. “To outliving our enemies.”I laughed and joined them as the whiskey burned my throat. It was a good burn. The kind that reminded you that you are still alive.Lucas leaned back with a nostalgic smile on his face. “Remember school days? The three of us ruled that place.”Drake nodded his head slowly. “We were untouchable.”“Untouchable is right,” Lucas grinned. “Son of the Alpha. Son of the Beta and Son of the head of head of security. Teachers did not dare raise their voices at us.”I laughed. “The stude
