Selena’s pov

I wondered if I was being sacrificed as no one answered me. Instead they kept on chanting as I looked around for a familiar face but I didn’t get any. No sign of Dante or even Sara. I would even be glad to see Anna my sister but nope. I was in the midst of old women chanting otherworldly songs.

They then helped me out of bed as they bathed me and lathered me with herbs and oil before dressing me up in a soft white cloth. They worked on my hair and did my makeup as I felt like a royal.

Sara showed up at the door a few minutes later and I shot to my feet.

"Where’s Dante?” I asked, my voice coming out in a whisper.

But Sara stepped forward and closed the door behind her. “You’ll see him soon enough,” she told me with a smile before crossing the room to fix my sleeve. “You look so beautiful Selene... really.”

I gave her a tiny unsure smile. “What is this? What’s happening? These ladies came in and started singing hymns or chants or something.”

She stopped, hands poised near

    Anna’s povI laughed, and it came out a bit crazed. “You really think you can stop me forever?”She didn’t even bat an eyelash. “If that’s what it takes.”My hands curled into fists. “You’re making a mistake.”Her voice dropped, calm but cutting. “The only mistake is thinking you can bully your way into getting what you want.”That hurt more than it should. I blinked and for a second all I could hear was the sound of my own breath, and the blood whooshing in my ears. I hated that she wasn’t caving, that she could stand there like a wolf and act like she could take me on.“You made a terrible mistake coming back here Anna,” she chuckled. “You can’t show up and think you can treat me like you used to. I’m not that little human anymore. I’m different.”“You roll around with wolves and act like you're a wolf. You must be a joker.”She got close to me and i could see that her aura had changed. Something about her scared me a bit. Almost like if she actually had a wolf, she would tear me ap

    Anna’s povI was boiling inside. I could feel my rage rising to heavy heights as I walked out of the room.How could he talk to me like that and treat me like I didn’t matter?I didn’t care as I slammed my heels on the floor and walked loud enough for my heels to echo in the hall.Let them hear. Let them know I was not done.By the time I’d reached the far end of the corridor, my freaking jaw ached from how hard I’d been clenching it. And then I let loose with this… noise. A low growl and grunt that echoed within me.I drew in a breath that came a little too fast. A few servants hurried by, heads down, skirts swishing. I could tell they were wondering what was wrong with me but I didn’t care. I would teach Selene a lesson.Speaking of her, where was she? I wouldn’t go without seeing her.If she thought she could just waltz into this pack, into my place, and stay here without feeling the weight of me breathing down her neck… she was wrong.I made my way toward the gardens because that

    Dante’s pov“I allied us with the rogue for a reason,” I said. It wasn’t a defensive tone because it wasn’t a question—it was a fact. “And I’ll explain it. But not here, and not now.”Tomas kept his gaze locked on mine. He sighed and ran a hand through his hair as he sniffed and cleaned his nose.“I just hope you have a good reason for this. I swear to the gods, you should have a better reason for this.”“Sure,” was all I could say.I didn’t wait for anything else: the guards were nearly done with the gifts, and I got into the back of the car, palms cool against leather. When the door shut, it did so with a sound that seemed to eat some of the noise outside but my head was too full.“Where to sir?” My driver said as I waved him forward.“The packhouse. I have a meeting there.”He nodded and drove through the roads.The ride back home was longer than usual.All I could think of was Tomas’s words.As much as I understood his point, I needed to hold on tight to my own beliefs. No need t

    Dante’s pov“No trouble. Quite the opposite. I’m here to inform you that we need not be enemies, you and I. We could be allies.” The word hung there like a shaft of dust in the air between us as I cocked my head.“I don’t take rogues into my pack,” I said evenly, each word measured and spoken.“Mm, I thought you’d say that.” His smile didn’t shake. “But I also thought you’re not an idiot. You realize that sometimes… life shoves a situation at you where the only person you can really count on isn’t the friend who’s supposed to be there at your back, but the enemy who’s always been living up to their potential for watching it.”I said nothing right off the bat. I kind of wanted to just walk back to my pack. But another part tuned in.He took my silence as permission. “You’ll come to me eventually,” he purred. I couldn’t claim that I’d ever had much cause to dislike the guy previously. We hadn’t exactly moved in the same circles: he kept to his corners, and I kept on trucking through my

    Anna’s povThe old man’s lips curled up into a knowing smirk. “Protection disappears when loyalties change, and trust me…” something sinister danced in his eyes as he leaned closer, “…loyalties are easier to change than you might believe.”I was flooded with a sharp rush of curiosity but I kept my face blank.“And why would that be?” I asked. “I thought Elders were always to stay neutral and support their alphas.”He chuckled, low and dry. “Neutrality is a luxury, Anna. One that doesn’t exist when the wrong person is sitting at the Alpha’s side.”I glanced back toward the table of books, then at him again."You think she's the wrong person?""I know she is,” he said, without hesitation. “And so do others.”That… made my smile widen. “Others? You mean there are people in this pack who’d rather see me there?”He didn’t answer but his silence said a lot as I smiled.“That’s… good to know,” I muttered. "You know… I was Luna material months before she came into the picture. Before anyone e

    Dante’s povHer smirk broke like porcelain paint losing its glue. “Pregnant? That’s all?”“Yes,” I said, meeting her eyes. “And it doesn’t make any difference that she’s human. She’s the future mother of my unborn child. She carries my young.”“I could have your pup, Dante,” she snapped. “With strong genes like mine. The kind of pups this pack needs. The kind that would make the family name survive another several years. Why would she be the reason you tell me to leave?”“That’s not why I told you to leave.” My voice stayed quiet, knowing if I yelled my anger would only grow and so too would hers. “I told you to get out of the pack before. Remember? I told you to never come back here again because of your actions. So why are you breaking that promise now?”Her lips curved up but I wouldn’t call it a smile. “I came back to take what’s mine.”I cocked an eyebrow. “And what would that be?”“YOU,” she barked out a short humorless laugh.“Anna… stop. You’re embarrassing yourself right now.
