The instant I turn and my eyes meet Kellan's, everything inside me stills and my entire body freezes to the spot. My head empties, my pulse even seems to paused, and I forget how to breathe at that moment.

For a full minute, no one says anything.

Aeron remains seated at the head of his table, calm as ever. One hand rests lightly against the table and the other strokes his chin as he stares at Kellan, as though this is nothing more than another ordinary morning.

    AeronI gesture lightly toward the front."You," I point, nodding at the woman who had spoken earlier. "Go ahead, now."She recovers quickly, even as the edge of astonishment still lingers in her expression."Thank you, Alpha," she says, her tone more measured now. "My question still remains. What convinces you that Kellan is the right choice for this role?"I hold her gaze as I answer."Because I have seen firsthand how he acts under pressure," I say, shooting a quick glance at Kellan. Then I turn back to the woman as I add, "He has done quite well in situations where hesitation costs lives."The room remains still as everyone listens."He isn't one that reacts blindly," I continue. "He assesses and adapts. And when necessary, he acts without permission that may never come. Now, that is not something you train into a man. It is something he either has or he does not."I let the words settle before adding. "And I'm not one to place authority in the hands of anyone who cannot stand on

    AeronThe noise from outside hits immediately. We hear movement, voices, and the subtle shift of attention as every guard and officer present turns toward us.I step out first, straightening to my full height as I take in the space. The ache in my side flares briefly, but I quickly bury it beneath the composure I've worn for years.Kellan steps out right behind me, his presence settling into place at my side without needing direction.We walk forward together, the path parting naturally before us.Inside, the station is already prepared. A smart line of officers stand at attention, and further ahead, I can see the setup of cameras and microphones. A gathered assembly also waited for an announcement.Words did spread faster than expected, and it was good.It sure meant the impact will be stronger We move through the corridor and into the main hall, where the air feels heavier with anticipation. Conversations quiet immediately as we approach, attention narrowing and focusing on us.I s

    AeronThe city shifts past the tinted glass in slow motion.I sit back against the leather seat, one hand resting lightly over my side where the dull ache continues to pulse in quiet reminder. It is not sharp enough to slow me anymore, but it still lingers. I let it sit there as a reminder that pain is inevitable.Across from me, Kellan says not a word.He has not spoke since we left the mansion, and yet his silent is far from empty. There is weight in it, something that presses into the calm space between us. I cast just a quick glance at him, catching the way his gaze remains fixed forward, unfocused on anything outside the window.He is obviously deep in thought. And that, more than anything else, makes him dangerous."You look like you're chewing on something you don't quite want to swallow," I say after a short while. A small smile followed.His eyes shift, finally settling on me. There is no surprise there–just a bit of a measured awareness."Just thinking," he replies.I huff

    AeronBy the time I step into the corridor, the ache in my side has settled into something dull and manageable. It's still there, but it just waits. Kellan walks a half-step beside me, silent as always. I don't really need to look at him to know where he is. As we approached the corridor, Helena steps out from the rear and joins us."Aeron," she says in a smooth voice. "I was informed that you wanted to see me before you left."I nod just once, letting my gaze settle on her just a moment longer than necessary. "Yes, I did."For a second, we just stand there, the silence stretching thin between us. Then I finally gesture down the adjoining hall."Have a walk with me."She inclines her head slightly as she falls into step beside me.We move slowly, navigating the hall in silence."You look better," she says after a moment. "Considering what happened.""Well, I thank the heavens," I reply simply. "I'm still well and alive.""Of course you are," she murmurs.Just then, I feel a faint sh

    Helena"Good," I say softly. Aspyn's brows knit. "Good? What do you mean?"I tilt my head slightly, then chuckle. "I can see that you've stopped waiting for him. Now, that's always the first useful step."I see something in her expression shift at that. I is uncertainty, then validation creeping in as I continue."I can address your problem," add calmly. "When the time is right of course. For now, don't try burning yourself out over a man who's already made his position clear."She opens her mouth like she wants to argue, but the weight in her shoulders seem to betray her. It shows that she doesn't want a sort of debate. No. She wants direction.And I can give her that eventually.For now, I let warmth enter my tone just enough to settle her. "You must give me some time," I say. "I have to make a call."Her breathing slows slightly, and the tension in her posture eases by degrees. She nods only once, like she's clinging to the idea of control again."Alright," she says. Then, more q

    HelenaI already saw it in the way Kellan stood in that corridor–half-hidden and half listening. The same man who once looked at Aeron like he was just a necessary evil now looks at him like a cancer that should have treated properly the first time.Kellan's hate surely is useful to me. Very useful.I slowly pace the length of my room, letting the joy of my thoughts settle into something even more useful than emotional. The carpet muffles my steps, but my mind is loud enough to fill the space anyway. If Kelly truly wants Aeron gone, then I didn't need to force him into anything messy. I only need to position the right pieces and let him believe he's still choosing freely.Graven handles the outside work as good as he can. He always has the efficiency when money is involved. And he is uncomplicated in the way men like him usually are.But the real work is here inside the mansion. Inside the slow, patient rot of the elders who still believe they are the spine of this pack.I pause nea

    Sera“I didn't do it," I whisper, my voice weak and torn from crying too much. “I… didn't… do it."I don't know how long I stay like that–curled up on the hay with my face buried in my arms as my chest shakes with my quiet sobs.The stray under me scratches against my skin every time I move. Cold s

    SeraThe chanting begins to fade, but the tension still lingers in the air–thick, palpable. It hovers above the courtyard like smoke after a fire."All hail the Alpha," the crowd repeats again, louder this time. “All hail the Alpha."They speak in unity, but their words sound forced now.

    SeraI wipe the stray bead of tears that slides down my greasy cheek with the back of my hand. Without another word–without looking back–I turn and walk out of the dungeon.Aeron keeps on calling my name behind me, begging me to stop. I hear the soft thudding of his boots against the stone floor as
