Chapter 115: The Exile's Return

POV: Beta Luther Cain

The guard's neck snapped with a quiet crack.

I dropped his body to the ground carefully, making sure he wouldn't be found until morning. Poor kid probably had a family waiting for him at home. But he'd picked the wrong side.

"That's the third patrol tonight," whispered Kane, one of my most loyal follows. "They'll notice soon."

"No, they won't," I answered, dragging the body into the bushes. "Charles always ran lazy checks. His replacement won't be any better."

Kane looked nervous. He'd been with me since the beginning, but absence had made him jumpy. Made all of us jumpy.

"Are you sure about this, Luther? Maybe we should wait longer. Build up more help."

I grabbed his shirt and pulled him close. "Wait for what? For them to get stronger? For more packs to join against us?"

"But if we fail—"

"We won't fail," I hissed. "Because we're not just fighting for ourselves anymore."

I released him

  • The Accused Mate   The Missing Luna

    POV: Rowan KingsleyThe bloody handprint on the cell door was still fresh.I pressed my back against the tree, heart pounding as I stared at the proof I'd been hunting for three months. Someone had been here lately. Someone who was hurt and trying to get inside.My phone buzzed with another message from Amara: Any news about my mother?I couldn't tell her what I thought. Not yet. Not until I was sure.The cabin looked empty, but I'd learned not to trust looks. I'd been tracking leads about Luna Seraphina Winters for weeks, following whispers and stories that most people dismissed as fantasy.Everyone believed she was dead. Everyone except me.I crept closer to the cabin, my nose picking up smells that made my blood run cold. Wolf blood. Fear. And something else—something familiar that I couldn't quite place.The front door was open.Inside, the cabin was a mess. Furniture overturned, dishes broken, clear signs of a fight. But it was the chain

  • The Accused Mate   Trial of the Betrayer

    POV: Elder Marcus ReedThe silver chains around Luther's wrists burst into flames.I jumped back from my place at the council table, my heart hammering as Luther Cain screamed in pain. The magical restraints weren't meant to do that. They were just meant to keep him from moving during his trial."What's happening?" shouted Elder Sarah from across the room.Luther's eyes rolled back, showing only white. Dark lines spread up his arms from where the chains touched his skin. He wasn't just in pain—something was changing him."Get those chains off him!" I yelled to the guards.But before anyone could move, Luther's head snapped up. His eyes were totally black now, and when he smiled, his teeth looked sharper than before."Too late," he whispered in a voice that didn't sound like his own. "She's coming."The chains snapped. Luther stood up slowly, and I could feel power rolling off him in waves. This wasn't the same broken man we'd caught three days ag

  • The Accused Mate   Power's Evolution

    POV: Amara KingsThe screams in my head wouldn't stop.I pressed my hands against my temples, trying to block out the voices of every wolf within fifty miles. Their thoughts, their fears, their ties to each other—all of it crashed into my mind like a tidal wave."Make it stop," I gasped, falling to my knees in Celeste's training room."Focus on one voice," called Mira, Celeste's young student. "Just one. Block out everything else."Easy for her to say. She wasn't the one whose brain felt like it was being torn apart by supernatural links.I tried to focus on Elias. His thoughts were always the clearest to me, probably because of our mate bond. But even his voice was mixed up with dozens of others.Amara, can you hear me? His worry flooded through our link.Too much, I managed to think back. Can't stop it.Suddenly, the sounds quieted. I looked up to see Mira holding a glowing crystal, her face tight with focus."Better?" she asked.I

  • The Accused Mate   Bonds Reformed

    POV: Elias Beaumont The plate smashed against the wall just inches from my head. "Get out!" Amara screamed, her golden eyes blazing with fury. "I can't even look at you!" I stayed perfectly still, letting clay pieces fall around my feet. Three weeks of this. Three weeks of trying to talk to her, and every conversation finished the same way. "Amara, please," I said quietly. "Just give me five minutes." "Five minutes?" She laughed coldly, grabbing another plate from the table. "You had eighteen years to find me. You had months to believe in me. Now you want five minutes?" The second plate flew past my ear. My wolf whimpered, desperate to comfort our mate. But I forced myself to stay normal, stay calm. "You're right," I said. "I don't deserve five minutes. I don't deserve anything from you." That seemed to surprise her. The third plate stayed in her hands. "But I need to tell you someth

  • The Accused Mate   The Healer's Dilemma

    POV: Lyra SinclairThe knife slipped and cut deep into my hand.I cursed under my breath as blood dripped onto the healing herbs I'd been grinding. My hands were shaking so badly I could barely hold the blade steady.Three years of lying. Three years of letting everyone think I was dead. And now Dorian was less than a mile away, wanting to see me."He knows you're alive," my assistant Maya whispered from the doorway. "The whole camp is talking about it."I put a cloth to my bleeding hand, trying to stop the trembling. "How did he find out?""Someone saw you at the market yesterday," she said. "Word travels fast in rogue territory."My heart hammered against my ribs. I'd been so careful for so long. One moment of carelessness, and everything was falling apart."What do you want me to tell him?" Maya asked."Tell him..." I started, then stopped. What could I tell him? That I'd faked my own death because I was afraid? That I'd let him suffer for
