Lucan and Kael headed straight to the kitchen. The clang of pots and the hiss of hot kettles filled the air. The aroma of different delicacies hit them as they stepped into the kitchen.

Two guards moved ahead of then, their deep voices echoing through the wide, noisy space.

“The Alpha,” one announced, sharp and clear.

Silence fell instantly.

Every clang, every chop, every sizzling pan halted as the kitchen staff froze mid-motion. Heads bowed in unison. The only sound left was the faint crackle of the fire beneath the big pots.

The head cook—a broad-shouldered, middle-aged woman with flour dusting her apron—stepped forward quickly, lowering her gaze. Her hands were clasped behind her back and her eyes stayed on the ground as she spoke.

“My lord,” she murmured.

Kael didn’t return the greeting. He moved further into the room, his presence pulling the weight of every eye toward him. Lucan walked beside him, his steps sharp and deliberate.

Kael’s voice cut through the silence, deep and f

    Selene flinched as her father’s hand slammed against the table for the third time in this young night. The sharp crack echoed through the chamber, the force rattling the items on the table. “Reckless!” Beta Darian’s voice thundered, sharp and cold. “You stained this family’s name with your foolishness.”Selene’s throat tightened. She opened her mouth, but Lucan shot her a look that warned her to stay silent.Darian’s eyes burned into her, every muscle of his face carved deep with fury. “Do you have any idea what you’ve done?”“I was only…” “Only what?” he barked the words so loud her chest jumped. “Only running into danger without second thought? Only dragging shame across the title of my house? You, Selene, my daughter, behaving like a spoiled pup who thinks the world bends to her obsession!”Her lips trembled. She pressed them together, holding back the sting in her eyes. She hated this, the sound of his rage, the weight of his disappointment. When she was little, she used to run

    Aria paced the length of Kael’s chamber, her arms folded tight against her chest. She had eaten what the maid had brought earlier, though her stomach still twisted with unease.Her gaze drifted, almost unwillingly, to the window. She strolled there and rested her body on the window frame, allowing the wind wash over her. The night was heavy, the courtyard dim. Then a torch flickered. Aria stretched to look out the window. And there he was again. The same scarred man from silvermane. “Why does he keep coming back?” she asked, though there was no one to answer. Aria stood still, watching closely. Then she noticed a shadow was cast over him. Someone else was there, opposite him but she couldn’t see the other person. They seemed to be in an argument. The scarred man’s gestures were sharp, angry, his head snapping back as if refusing whatever the other had said.Aria leaned closer, her breath caught in her throat.“Whenever this man was here, it meant no good. And now he’s been frequ

    The dining hall buzzed faintly with the sound of cutlery scraping against wooden plates. Wolves ate quickly and quietly. The smell of roasted meat, sweat and broth all mixed in the air. The Elites table was quiet too. Beta Darian and General Throne ate quietly. Lucan and Kael were absent. Laura leaned closer to Selene, her voice barely above a whisper. “Lucan has been acting strange. He hasn’t been himself since the training,” she said, her voice convincing. Selene arched a brow, smirking faintly as she cut through her meat. “Strange how? You’re imagining things, Laura.”Laura’s pressed her lips together, a flicker of worry darting through her eyes. “No, it’s more than that. He left abruptly during training this afternoon…”“I saw that,” Selene said before Laura could finish. “No, Sel. Lucan skipped dinner. That’s unlike him. And I haven’t seen him since he left in the afternoon,” Laura added quickly, her voice rising slowly. Beta Darian shot her a warning look from across the ta

    Lucan quickened his steps, his boots hitting the stone hard floor with urgency.“Kael,” Lucan called. No response. Kael didn’t slow down, he hurried down the corridor straight towards his chamber. Before Lucan could call him again, Kael turned the corridor, his chamber doors looming ahead. Then the bell rang—a call to dinner. Lucan paused. Kael kept walking. As he approached the door, the guards moved aside. He stood for a moment at the door, breathing in and out deeply, trying to calm his rage. Then he pushed the door open. The room was empty except for Aria who lay asleep on the bed, the blankets halfway over her weak and pale body. He stepped in slowly and shut the door behind him with a soft, careful click. Kael walked further in until he was beside the bed. He adjusted the blankets gently and sat by her side. For a moment, he just watched her—the way her breathing was soft and even, her hair scattered against the soft pillow underneath her head. “It feels so good to wa

    The training hall buzzed with wolves. The sound of blows hitting hard and swords clashing filled the room. The air was covered with smoke and the smell of sweat, the floor littered with wolf tufts. They had been trying for hours. Lucan sat on a bench with Laura and Selene at a corner in the hall. They had just finished a combat training and were now drinking from their water skins. Then Lucan stood abruptly. “Where are you going?” Laura asked, her eyes looking up at him. “I’ll be back soon,” Lucan replied, planting both hands in his pockets. “Do you want me to come?” Laura asked, searching his eyes. “Urgh,” Selene scoffed, rolling her eyes. “He’s not a kid, Laura, he’ll be fine.” Laura shot her a Look. “I’ll be fine, baby,” Lucan said. He bent low and pressed a soft kiss on her forehead. Then he turned and walked out of the hall. *************************“She should be fine in the next few days,” the healer said after examining Aria for the fifth time. Aria sat
