Elijah's POV

Maya broke the kiss. She gasped for air, pulling her hands back from my hair and shoved her palms hard against my chest, trying to push away.

I didn't let her go.

Instead, my arms locked tighter around her waist, pulling her closer until there was no space left between us.

My hands slipped downward, sliding beneath the warm water to press against her hips and lifting her slightly as my fingers moved gently against her skin.

Deep inside my head, my wolf went feral. It clawed at the

    Elijah's POVMaya broke the kiss. She gasped for air, pulling her hands back from my hair and shoved her palms hard against my chest, trying to push away.I didn't let her go.Instead, my arms locked tighter around her waist, pulling her closer until there was no space left between us.My hands slipped downward, sliding beneath the warm water to press against her hips and lifting her slightly as my fingers moved gently against her skin.Deep inside my head, my wolf went feral. It clawed at the base of my skull, howling a possessive command:‘Claim her. Bite her neck. Mark her as ours right now.’The urge was intoxicating. The scent of her skin, heightened by the water and our skin-to-skin contact, clouded my rational mind.She wasn't just my mate; she was bound to Stephen, tied to Karl' and Nathan and shared among the brothers.Marking her right here, in the middle of the woods, would shatter the little peace of the pack and start a bloody war between us."Elijah... stop. Please," May

    Stephen's POV."Congratulations, Alpha Stephen! An heir to secure the Red Moon bloodline!""A brilliant political move, bringing stability just in time for the council summit!""The pack rejoices with you!"I stood in the center of the grand ballroom, surrounded by a circle of pack elders and high-ranking officials.They slapped my back and beamed with grins, ignoring the darkness in the room.Allison’s public pregnancy bomb had detonated successfully, turning the high council gathering into speculation and praise.My jaw was locked so tight my teeth ached. I didn't say a word in response to their congratulations.I simply stared straight ahead. Where was Maya?That question burned through my mind. I had watched her slip away from the ballroom moments after Allison’s announcement, her face pale with humiliation and betrayal.My wolf had clawed at the back of my mind, screaming for me to chase her, to drag her back and to explain, even though I didn't even understand the nightmare All

    Maya's POVThe door of Elijah’s car closed shut and sealed us inside.I had spent the entire drive sitting stiffly against the passenger door, my arms crossed tightly over my chest as I glared out the bulletproof window.I expected him to drag me back into the castle or lock me away in another one of his training rooms.Instead, he had driven past the guard posts, pushing deeper into the forest that bordered the pack territory until the vehicle came to a stop beneath a black tree.He had killed the engine, gotten out and dragged me by the hand through the twisting forest without uttering an explanation.The distant sounds of howling sent shivers down my spine and I was about to ask when he walked us into a clearing.Standing at the edge of an impossibly beautiful lake.The moonlight casted a silver sheen across the surface of a wide, perfectly still lake that was hidden deep within the trees.The water looked ethereal, glowing with something natural.I had been caught up in the breath

    Maya's POVMy breath caught in my throat as I stared at Allison.Her face was flushed with her hands resting over her stomach as she soaked in the shock of the assembly.Around us, the murmurs began.High-ranking delegates, allied pack leaders and council members shifted uncomfortably, their eyes darting between Allison, Stephen and me.An heir. A potential bloodline continuation for the Alpha. In the hierarchy of pack politics, an unborn child changed every calculation on the board.I turned my head slowly to look at Stephen.He was frozen with his jaw locked so tight a muscle twitched beneath his skin. His eyes were fixed on Allison but he didn't say a single word. He didn't deny it immediately and he didn't confirm it.He simply narrowed his gaze and his silence, throwing the entire ballroom into deeper confusion."Prove it," a council elder shouted from the edge of the crowd, breaking the silence. "A claim like that regarding the Alpha's bloodline requires immediate verification.

    Stephen's POVThe grand ballroom of the Whiston castle was packed to capacity.Allied pack leaders, regional delegates and high-ranking council members filled the space, moving across the hall.The atmosphere was wrapped in a luxury but the tension in the room was obvious. Everyone knew the political balance of the district hinged on this night.It was the quadruplets' joint birthday celebration.I stood at the raised head table overlooking the ballroom, followed by my brothers. Karl stood to my left, dressed in a suit and chatting politely with a visiting delegate from the northern territories.Elijah stood further down, his arms crossed over his chest, his gaze scanning the crowd with something dark and bored.Nathan stood quietly beside me, his instincts on high alert.I kept my eyes constantly scanning the grand doors at the far end of the hall.Despite the tight security net surrounding the castle and despite the manifests and financial records Karl had provided to clear his alib

    Maya's POVIt wasn't a question or a negotiation. But a business transaction designed to push political leverage and secure the estate's borders at the expense of my freedom.Anger surged through my chest, burning hot enough to cut through the numbness of the past twenty-four hours."No," I said.My voice was firmer than ever as I stared directly into the eyes of Julian's father. "I said no. I am not marrying Julian.""Maya–" he began, raising a hand."I am done being traded like currency!" I snapped, cutting him off immediately. "You offered protection under a specific accord and you broke those terms the second your security failed. You don't get to trap me in a forced marriage just to patch up your fragile political borders!"I didn't wait for his reply. I went straight toward the doors of the study.I reached out, ready to wrench it open and walk out of this estate forever, consequences be damned.Before I could pull the door open, the door was hit from behind.The door opened inw
