Training began like all the others—brutal and unforgiving.

But this time, something went wrong.

In the middle of practice, my vision suddenly became blurry.

I missed a strike, and the spear slipped from my hands.

"Focus," Damon snapped.

"I am—"

Before I could finish, the world tilted violently. My legs gave out, and I hit the ground hard.

"Selene!"

Through the haze, I felt Damon's hands on me, felt him turning me over. His face swam in and out of focus.

"Stay with me. Look at me."

I tried. But darkness was creeping in from the edges, cold and suffocating.

"GUARDS!" Damon's roar echoed. "Get Mira NOW!"

Then everything went black.

I woke up to people arguing.

"—shouldn't still be in her system—"

"Then explain why she collapsed!"

"I'm trying, Your Majesty, but without knowing exactly what poison was used—"

"Then find out."

I slowly opened my eyes. I was in my bed, surrounded by healers. Damon stood at the foot of the bed, looking furious.

"She's awake," one healer said quickly.

Damon was

    I woke up to shouting.Distant but urgent, coming from somewhere in the palace grounds. My body ached, the poison making everything feel heavy and wrong.Through the bond, I felt Damon's sudden spike of alertness.Something was happening.I dragged myself to the window and looked down at the palace grounds. Guards were mobilizing, moving with military precision toward the main gates.The door slammed open.Damon walked in, already dressed. His face was hard and cold.“Get dressed. You have five minutes.”“What’s going on?” I asked."We have visitors. Uninvited ones." His voice was cold. "Five rogues just walked up to my gates and demanded to see me. About you.”"What?""You heard me. They're armed. Refusing to leave. And the one in front, russet-haired, looks ready to fight every guard here, he keeps shouting your name."Kael.Oh gods, Kael was here."You need to see them," I said urgently. "Please, they're my pack—""I know exactly who they are. I had them identified the moment they

    The next five days were pure torture.Every day was the same.I woke up before sunrise.Trained with Damon for two hours.Forced myself to eat food I didn’t even want.Trained again in the afternoon.Then fell into bed, my whole body aching and my wounds reopening because I never gave them time to heal.Then it all started again the next day.Damon was extremely hard on me."Again.""I can't—""AGAIN."I pushed myself off the ground, my legs shaking badly. We had already been training for over an hour. Damon kept calling out attacks from imaginary enemies while I tried to defend myself.“Left—”I turned quickly, shadows bursting out.“Too slow,” Damon said. “You’re dead.”I wanted to scream. I wanted to cry.Finally, Damon spoke again. “Water break.”I dropped onto a bench and drank water like my life depended on it. My hands were shaking so much I could barely hold the cup.Damon didn’t sit. He didn’t ask if I was okay. He just stood there, watching me like I was something he was tes

    I didn't sleep that night.How could I, knowing an assassin had entered my room? When I knew someone inside the palace had betrayed Damon and me, and let a killer through?I sat on the edge of the bed, staring at the door that connected my room to Damon’s. I could feel him through our bond, walking back and forth, angry and hunting for answers.Just before morning, I heard it.A scream.It was far away, but clear. A man crying, begging.Then everything went quiet.I felt cold.Damon had found someone.In the morning, there was a sharp knock on my door."Lady Selene. His Majesty requests your presence in the throne room. Immediately."I quickly dressed in the clothes prepared for me, a dark blue gown with long sleeves that hid my bandages. My ribs still hurt, but I could manage.When I looked in the mirror, I saw someone different. I looked stronger. Harder.Yesterday, someone tried to kill me.Today, I would learn who was behind it.Two guards escorted me through the palace. Neither

    I couldn't sleep.Every time I closed my eyes, I remember kneeling in front of Damon. I heard his cold voice calling me his tool.I felt the shame all over again, like everyone was watching me and judging me.My chest hurt from the humiliation.Around midnight, I gave up trying to sleep entirely and moved to the sitting room. The palace was quiet, eerily so. No footsteps in the corridors. No sounds of life.Just silence and shadows.I stared at the fire as it slowly died.Then I felt it.Wrong.Something was wrong.My wolf stirred uneasily inside me. “Danger.”I stood up slowly, every sense suddenly alert. The shadows in the room seemed darker than they should be. Thicker.Then I saw it.Movement. Just a flicker at the edge of my vision.I spun, shadows instinctively flaring around my hands—A blade whistled past my face, so close I felt the air move beside my skin.I jumped back as a man stepped out of the darkness. He was dressed all in black. His face was covered. His movements wer

    Cora rushed into my room at midday, her eyes full with panic."You need to get dressed. Now. My lady""What? Why—""His Majesty is holding Court in an hour. He's requested your presence." She was already pulling out clothes from the wardrobe, a gown in deep emerald that looked far too elegant for someone like me. "Every noble, every Council representative stationed here, every important wolf in the territory will be there."My stomach sank. “He’s going to show me off in front of everyone.”“Yes,” Cora said honestly. “And you need to look like you belong there. Like you’re not scared. Like you deserve to stand beside the Alpha King.” She stopped herself."His prisoner?" I asked “His mate,” she said quietly. “Even if he refuses to admit it.”Twenty minutes later, I barely recognized myself in the mirror.The gown hugged my body perfectly, the emerald fabric making my silver eyes stand out. My dark hair had been swept up, leaving my neck bare. Cora had even applied subtle makeup that ma
