The temptation was clear on Nolan's face.

Gianna could see it. The way his eyes lingered on her wrist. The way his breathing had changed when she'd offered but his pride was stronger.

"No," he said. "We agreed on monthly visits. I'll wait."

"You look like you're about to collapse."

"I'll manage."

Gianna crossed her arms. "Fine. If that's what you want."

"It is." He moved to the door and opened it. "You should go."

"Back to the cell?"

"Yes."

She frowned. "Why can't I just leave?"

"Because if any

    Gianna held the necklace tightly in her trembling hands, standing at Nolan's bedside. She pressed it against her chest and reached out mentally, desperately, frantically calling for Iris.At first, there was nothing. Silence. Emptiness. A void that seemed to swallow her pleas and offer nothing in return.She waited. Minutes stretched into what felt like an eternity. The weight of the silence was suffocating, pressing down on her like a physical force. Nolan's breathing grew shallower on the bed behind her, each breath a reminder that time was running out.Finally, unable to bear the silence any longer, Gianna spoke aloud, her voice shaking with fury and desperation."If you don't respond right now, I'm throwing this necklace away," she said harshly. "I'm done with you, Iris. I'm done with your cryptic messages and your half-truths. If you won't help me, if you can't do anything for me in this moment, then you're useless to me."She gripped the necklace so tightly that the pearls bit i

    The air in the chamber felt thick, as if the very atmosphere were suffocating under the weight of Nolan’s fading pulse. Gianna’s fingers trembled as she pulled the heavy velvet curtains shut, plunging the room into a dim, amber-hued twilight. She couldn’t bear the thought of the guards outside witnessing her desperation, or worse, the pity in their eyes as they watched her cling to a ghost.She hurried to the vanity, her heart hammering against her ribs like a trapped bird. She ripped open the small, hidden compartment in the drawer where she kept the necklace—the obsidian chain tipped with a single, luminescent pearl."Iris," she hissed, her voice barely a breath. "If you are there, show yourself. Don't you dare abandon me now."The pearl remained dull, a cold, lifeless stone against her palm. Gianna clutched it tight, her knuckles turning white. She turned toward the bed, where Nolan lay in a stillness so profound it looked like marble. The doctor’s earlier words—his will is set aga

    Gianna remained in the chamber, curled up in the bed where she and Nolan had shared so many moments of tenderness. She sobbed quietly, her anger warring with the hurt of his sharp words. She expected him to return, to apologize for raising his voice at her, to explain what had frightened him so badly that he would lash out.But he never came.The longer she waited in the darkness, the more her anger grew. How could he yell at her when all she wanted was to help him? How could he push her away when they were supposed to be facing this together?By the time exhaustion finally claimed her tears, Gianna was furious. She rose from the bed and went in search of him, determined to demand an explanation.She checked the corridors, the common areas, the gardens. He was nowhere to be found. She searched frantically, her anger gradually giving way to concern, and then to genuine fear.She remembered that Elmund had been given temporary leave and couldn't help her search. So she did what she had

    Nolan couldn't tell her. No matter how persistently Gianna pressed, no matter how many times she demanded answers, he couldn't bring himself to voice the words that had been screamed at his mother's spirit.The suggestion was too terrible. The very idea of it made his soul recoil in horror. Knowing Gianna as he did, knowing her selfless nature and her desperate desire to save him, he couldn't risk even letting her consider the possibility. If she knew what the healer and his own mother had suggested, she might decide that sacrificing herself was worth it. She might convince herself that it was the only solution.So when she wouldn't stop asking, when she kept pushing and demanding and pleading for the truth, something inside Nolan snapped. He raised his voice, speaking harshly in a way he had never done with her before, and Gianna shrieked at his tone, fear and hurt flashing across her face.In that moment of her shock and pain, Nolan seized the opportunity to walk away. He turned and

    Gianna decided not to press further about the square. It was clear that time had changed, that the world had moved on from those ancient traditions. She let the question drop and instead asked where Nolan was taking her."I want to show you the beauty of the pack," he said, guiding her through the winding paths of the palace grounds. "You've been either inside the house or in a carriage since you arrived. You're not familiar with the people, with the territory, with what it means to be part of this community."He took her hand, his grip warm and steady."One day, you'll have to rule them," he continued quietly. "When I'm gone, when a new Alpha emerges, you'll need to know them. You'll need to understand what binds them together, what makes them strong."Gianna felt anger flare in her chest at his words."Stop," she said sharply, pulling her hand away. "Stop talking about death and leaving me. You're not going to die. I won't accept it, and frankly, saying it that way is selfish. You'r

    Gianna managed to catch up with Nolan before he could confront Elmund and do something drastic. She grabbed his arm, pulling him to a stop in the corridor."Stop," she said firmly. "I don't like the way your temper has been hanging off a cliff these days. And secondly, I was the one who asked Elmund the question. This isn't his fault."Nolan tried to pull away from her, his anger still simmering just beneath the surface, but Gianna held her ground. She hissed at him, her own irritation rising, and then she turned and walked away, leaving him standing alone in the corridor.For a moment, Nolan remained where he was, his chest heaving with anger and frustration. But then, instead of pursuing Elmund as he had intended, he turned and followed Gianna instead.He caught up with her just as she reached their chambers. He gently took her arm and turned her to face him, his expression contrite."I'm sorry," he said, his voice sincere. "I was pissed because what he told you wasn't the truth. Or

    Iris's voice was urgent and filled with a seriousness that Gianna had never heard before."Heed my warning, Gianna," Iris said, her words coming through the mental connection like a plea. "Stop searching for information about Faes. Stop asking questions. Stop trying to uncover the truth."Gianna fe

Her heart was still pounding wildly in her chest. Her legs felt weak beneath

    The figure descended the stairs slowly, each footstep echoing through the library like a heartbeat.As he came closer, Gianna could finally see him clearly.He was a young man, probably around the same age as Nolan, with sharp features and a lean frame that suggested grace rather than bulk. His ski

    Gianna jolted awake in the darkness.The bed beside her was cold. Nolan was gone.She sat up quickly, her heart beginning to race. Where was he? How long had he been gone? She threw off the blankets and moved toward the door, wrapping her robe around herself as she went.The corridor was dimly lit
