Sebastian

When I’d asked how many credits she had, she went digging through her wallet and, in the end, pulled out the heavy, silver-etched mating ring I'd given her—ready to trade that sacred band for rotgut.

I take it back. She wasn't a cute drunk. She was infuriating.

What pissed me off even more was the moment she tried to pay to sleep with me—while failing to recognize her own mate. It begged a question that made my wolf snarl: if it were another man, a stranger, would she have offered the

    I stared at the latest territory financial report, unseeing. The digital figures blurred as my mind drifted back to Elena’s snarls about Valentina’s pup."Just tell me the truth, Sebastian. Is that your bloodline? Is that a Blackwood heir?"I had neither confirmed nor denied it. What could I say? The truth was a tangled mess—a debt of honor I couldn't explain without revealing the cracks in our pack's history. I owed Valentina, yes. But not in the way Elena’s broken heart imagined.Valentina and I had been the star pair of the Northwest Screen Academy—she was the agile winger to my powerhouse center on the hockey ice. She had saved me once, literally dragging me from the wreckage of a rogue ambush when my wolf was too young to fight. When Doña Carmen forced me to choose between the Alpha seat and her, Valentina swore she'd stay by my side even if I was exiled. And still… I walked away to claim the crown. That was my debt—the crushing guilt of abandoning the one soul who would have bee

    "I’m about to go for the kill," I whispered to myself, sliding behind the wheel of a stunning azure blue sports coupe—one of Sebastian’s many high-performance machines. My own car was still tucked away in Mason's underground garage, but if I was technically still the Luna of the Blackwood lineage, I was going to enjoy the perks.Mason had pings lighting up his phone—his coach at the Northwest Screen Academy was breathing down his neck about his footwork on the ice, so he couldn't play wingman today. But he’d sent me the coordinates and the contact info for the legal shark he’d promised. I could handle this. I was a Navarro; I was about to break free from the Blackwood shadow and face the world’s claws on my own terms.I followed the GPS to the Iron Brew Café in Manchester. It was a trendy, industrial spot where the baristas looked like they spent more time on their beards than the beans. Typical for the Deansgate crowd.The morning rush had faded, leaving the space quiet and smelling

    "Wait—what does Mason have to do with this?" I growled, my wolf pacing behind my ribs. "He stood by me when you threw me to the rogues. What, are you snarling because I didn't end up exiled and broken? Did my survival bruise your precious Alpha ego?""You think this is about my pride?" Sebastian grabbed a leather-bound folder from the seat of the SUV and shoved it into my hands. "I'm not that petty, Elena."I took it with a sneer, my irritation flickering into confusion—then solidifying into pure ice as I flipped it open.Screenshots. Dozens of them. Pack-link archives, social forum logs, anonymous pings—all targeting Valentina.Accusations that she used her status as an 'injured' she-wolf to hijack a medical transport after a minor fender bender at the Redbridge Overpass. Claims she faked her 'trauma' to force a mating bond. Older whispers, too—that she was a home-wrecker in the Southern Packs, disrupting bloodlines before she targeted the Blackwoods.Multiple accounts. Multiple scen

    "Hi, Elena, you look radiant today," purred Mrs. Harrington, her scent a cloying mix of lilies and old money."Hi, Mrs. Harrington. Thank you. I love the new silver highlight in your fur—did you visit that new stylist at Élite Salon? The terrace already has the organic meats and local honey cakes set up for the pack sisters."I kept my pleasant smile firmly in place as I guided her toward the estate staff waiting to escort her out to the garden.I’d gone with a sharp, tailored suit from Velvet Revival today and a heavy silver torque—pointedly skipping diamonds after Valentina’s whole lecture about what they signify in "modern" mating. I made sure I looked polished, but the don't-mess-with-me kind of polished. Not the old version of me who quietly took whatever the Blackwoods snarled. When Isabella saw me this morning, she didn't say a word; she just lifted one perfectly plucked brow and rattled off instructions on how to entertain her very high-ranking friends.The Blackwood Estate in

    "The filtration in the birthing pool is failing," growled the man who had reluctantly allowed me entrance, leading me through the dim corridors of the Northwest Screen Academy. "Did you bring the neutralizer?"He pivoted, sniffing the air as he noticed my empty hands. Before he could challenge my lack of equipment, I lunged past him into the main rehearsal hall."Rafael Dominguez!" I projected, my voice steady despite the scent of multiple Alphas in the room. "I am Elena Navarro, aspirant seventeen. You cannot close this hunt without testing my strength!"Two Enforcers immediately shifted their weight to block my path, their eyes glowing a faint amber. "The audition window is shut, omega! Pack your things!"I snarled low in my throat, struggling against their iron grips. "You cannot be finished if you haven't scented every challenger! How can you judge the bloodline of this production if you haven't seen what a Navarro can do?""We'll have the Lead Enforcer toss you to the curb if you

    "You don't want me carrying another man's pup... so now, do you want to sire mine?" I asked, each word deliberate and sharp.He paused for a heartbeat, the gold in his eyes flickering like a dying ember. Then he spoke, his voice dropping into that deep, possessive register. "You still want an heir... I've thought it over. Fine." He leaned in, his scent—dark cedar and winter rain—washing over me as he moved to claim my lips again.I couldn't believe it. How could he shift his stance so rapidly? Was that just an impulsive Alpha response to a challenge? I felt like I was forever at the mercy of his whims.I shoved his solid chest away. "You know what? I don’t want to have a pup with you right now."He looked genuinely stunned. "What is wrong with you, Elena?""Because you already have a litter on the way, so I don't want to start one with you!" I ground out, finally letting the secret scream into the room.He stared at me, his gaze boring into mine, and then slowly said, "You mean... Val
