Rowan's POV

"Come home."

Knox's voice was a harsh over-the-phone crackle like static, strained with tension that ceased me in my tracks. I had only just gotten back from a quick five on the top-level treadmill, trying to soothe the wolf inside me. It had not succeeded. If anything, the beast was more restless now, pacing in circles around my chest as if searching for something or someone.

"I am not done here," I snarled, rubbing a towel over the back of my neck. Sweat still clung to my hairline from the air conditioning blasting its way through the penthouse.

"You don't get it, Rowan. This is bigger than you are upset or fixated on some mysterious woman. You are exposed," he barked and I could practically see him scrubbing his hands through his hair, a quirk he had picked up from me years ago.

"What if somebody finds out you are at that hotel without proper security? What if a rogue gets a whiff of you? What if one of the enemy packs realizes the Alpha of Blackthorne is by himself and

  • The Alpha’s Forgotten Bride   Chapter 49: Tension Sprouts

    Calla’s POVI invited them in as if they were both gentlemen I had to host in the most prestigious way, and maybe if it was another time, that would be absolutely possible. They walked, smiling and Asher was bouncing on his feet happily like someone who had achieved all his goals.It was cute watching both of them and how naturally they were bonding. And I’m so sure that Rowan's wolf must be going so crazy and ready to spill what it suspects, but without an obvious truth, then that can never happen. He can only keep feeling the bond but will never be able to do anything about it.Soon enough, we were all seated. Asher made sure his hands were washed and he was explaining to Rowan that he should do the same because washing hands keeps the sickness away. I was the one who told him that.The scent of roasted meat and herbs lingered in the air, thick and cozy as the clinking of cutlery and Asher’s little hums of satisfaction filled the dining room.“Mommy, this tastes better than Freya’s

  • The Alpha’s Forgotten Bride   Chapter 48: A Taste of Warmth

    Calla’s POVThe market was alive with color and sound. Stalls of fresh produce lined the dirt-packed main street, baskets overflowing with herbs, root vegetables, meats, and grains. The smell of spices, fire-cooked bread, and sun-warmed fruit clung to the air. It felt nostalgic and strange, walking amidst the bustle again. My hood was up, and my mask snug, covering the lower half of my face. The streets weren’t crowded enough to worry, but just busy enough to blend in without suspicion.I kept my steps careful and casual, the weight of my twin knives tucked into my boots a familiar comfort. This wasn’t the first time I snuck out. And it wouldn’t be the last.I was here for a reason—not just to stock up on food I liked—but to learn. To listen. To observe. I’d spent too long isolated and suspicious. I needed to understand the people Rowan ruled before I even dared imagine what my life could be here. With Asher. With… him.“Two pounds of the sweet root,” I said quietly to the elderly wo

  • The Alpha’s Forgotten Bride   Chapter 47: Among the Pack

    Calla’s POVI waited for the exact moment I felt Rowan’s presence take Asher from the safe house. His laughter — bright, childlike, full — rang through the thick walls, followed by Rowan’s gentle chuckle. I didn’t peek. I didn’t say goodbye. I didn’t dare.Asher was safe. That was all I needed to know.I laced my boots slowly, meticulously, like every loop and pull would anchor me. The blades were tucked in their holsters, pressing snugly against my thighs under the dark folds of my cloak. My mask, the smooth black porcelain one, went on last — a familiar kind of protection, one that allowed me to breathe in ways I never could barefaced.It was time to go among them.Slipping out was easier now. I’d memorized every guard’s shift, every blind spot. I moved like fog, silent, unnoticed. The moment I emerged from the dense trail that circled the back of the main estate, I joined the stream of people heading toward the central grounds. No one noticed me — just another body wrapped in anon

  • The Alpha’s Forgotten Bride   Chapter 46: Urge To Ptotect

    (Rowan’s POV)The room was dim, the fireplace burning low, casting soft shadows across the stone walls of my chamber. Knox was sprawled on the opposite couch, a glass of aged amber in his hand and a tired but amused expression on his face. I, on the other hand, stood by the window, arms crossed, eyes trained on the horizon like I expected it to shift and reveal all the answers I needed.It didn’t.“You’ve been twitchier than usual,” Knox said lazily, swirling the contents of his glass. “You going to tell me what’s chewing at you, or should I guess and get it wildly right again?”I shot him a glare over my shoulder. “I’m fine.”He smirked. “And I’m a pacifist.”I didn’t respond. I couldn’t. Because the truth was, something was chewing at me—something cold and eerie and entirely unwelcome. I hadn’t been able to shake the sensation ever since that night. The night I went for a run to clear my head, only to feel it: eyes. Not the curious gaze of a passerby or a wolf simply wandering in th

  • The Alpha’s Forgotten Bride   Chapter 45: The Fear in The Bones

    (Calla’s POV)The silence after Freya left was a thick, buzzing thing—like static trapped beneath my skin. Her words still clung to the air, echoing between the walls of this small cabin like a whispered prophecy.“Asher might possess a magic that hasn’t been seen in centuries.”Magic. Rare. Unseen.It should have been awe-inspiring.Instead, it terrified me.He was only a boy. My boy. Soft-hearted, wide-eyed, sunshine-laughing Asher. I wanted to wrap him in cotton and keep the world away. I wanted to tell Freya she was wrong, that maybe her methods were flawed or maybe she just didn’t know what she was doing, even though I knew she did.She was one of the best.The problem wasn’t her conclusion. It was what it could mean. A magic not seen in centuries? That wasn’t just a rare illness. That wasn’t something you found a potion for and fixed with Rowan’s blood and a hopeful smile.It was power. Something ancient. Something people kill for.I stared at the door long after she left, my ha

  • The Alpha’s Forgotten Bride   Chapter 44: What Lurks in the Blood

    (Calla’s POV)The scent of lavender and ironroot hit me first—Freya. She was early.I had barely poured myself a cup of tea when I heard the soft knock at the door. Not Rowan’s knock. Not Knox’s. Not Asher’s soft little tap either. It was firm. Deliberate. A healer’s knock.I opened it with quiet resolve, masking my nerves in a calm expression. Freya stood there, her curls pinned high today, her usual playfulness absent.“Good morning,” she said softly, stepping inside when I nodded.Asher was still out with Rowan. It gave us the privacy Freya likely hoped for.“I won’t take much of your time,” she started, setting her leather bag on the table and opening it with precision. “But I need to complete the final phase of Asher’s assessment.”I closed the door behind her and turned slowly. My chest tightened. I’d been dreading this moment even though I’d known it would come. The first two checks she did had been basic—temperature, reflexes, bloodwork—but this… this one went deeper. It was m
