I snorted. “Let me guess some sob story?”

Cassius’s frown shifted to her. “No words needed. Just smell.”

Even in human form, our wolf senses didn’t lie. I understood instantly.

Her eyes widened as I stepped closer. She tried to back away, but I grabbed her shoulders, stopping her. Leaning down, I brought my face near her, close enough to feel the heat radiating from her body.

I immediately regretted letting her scent reach me. It wrapped around me like fire, stirring something deep, raw, and wi

    Even with distance between us, Lucien’s presence filled the entire Jeep like a storm waiting to break.As we sped through the forest, I buckled my seatbelt and curled into myself, wishing I could disappear. The weight of his dominance pressed down on me, heavy and suffocating. Most alphas barely affected me… but Lucien was different.Something deep inside me wanted to surrender.Was this how weaker wolves always felt around powerful leaders? If so, I didn’t know how they endured it. A wild urge to throw myself out of the moving Jeep just to escape him flickered through my mind.All three of them were completely different.Lucien was the kind of alpha I grew up fearing—the type who ruled through intimidation and expected obedience without question.Luca was another kind I had seen before. Reckless. Untouchable. The sort of alpha who took whatever he wanted because no one dared to challenge him.Cassius… was something else entirely. An alpha who didn’t seem interested in forcing submiss

    All of them.If only the moon goddess had chosen one of them as my mate instead of Darius.I shouldn’t question fate. I knew that.But if Darius had accepted me… everything would have been different.My place in the pack would have been secure.My future would have been safe.I would have been standing beside the next alpha… not running for my life in the wilderness.The ache in my chest deepened as I stared at Cassius.Because for the first time since my world fell apart…I couldn’t stop wondering what my life could still become.If Darius had accepted me, my life might still have been ruined. He was already close to choosing another for betrothal. Picking me could have sparked a full pack war. Maybe rejection had saved me… or maybe it had just delayed my suffering.Instead, I had been thrown out like garbage. Left alone in the wild where wolves hunted wolves. Cassius had saved me, but helping me had clearly put him at odds with his own alpha. The way the three men looked at me told

    “Thanks,” Cassius said, but I didn’t answer. My wolf was still thrumming, restless, wanting more.We plunged into the freezing stream, scrubbing blood from our muzzles and paws. Most of it hadn’t soaked our bodies, thankfully—we didn’t need to drown ourselves in ice water.Then we followed Selena. My wolf’s excitement spiked at the hunt, but she stayed on two legs, making it easy to catch up. I hung back, watching Cassius. Someone had to think straight.He circled, approaching her from the front. Selena froze, stiff as a board. Her fear made my wolf growl, eager for the kill—but all danger was gone. Cassius simply lay down in her path. She didn’t run.“Cassius… is that you?” Her voice was soft, shaking with relief. “You nearly gave me a heart attack.”I clenched my teeth to keep my mental growl from slipping across the bond. He didn’t deserve it.“I’m glad you’re here,” she said, settling near him. She drew the blanket I’d given her around her shoulders, sipping from the stream. My wo

    She grumbled as one hit the ground but picked it up, keeping her eyes on me. She had tricked Cassius to get here, but I wasn’t falling for it. There was more to her story than she admitted.“Is this yours?” I asked, holding up a sharp, well-balanced knife I’d never seen before.“Yes, and I had a water bottle,” she said, licking her dry lips. My chest tightened, but I looked away. I reminded myself my loyalty was to my pack, not some stray wolf trying to pull at my feelings.I tossed her the bottle. She dropped the trail mix trying to catch it, holding her knife tight instead. Fair enough. I’d have done the same.I pointed. “Bloodfang is that way if you want to go back.”She shook her head, her face hard. “They never wanted me. I wouldn’t be welcome.”I shrugged. “Then maybe try Alloy. But it’s risky.”Her pale eyebrows pulled together. “Alloy… are they humans? Witches? What are they?”I laughed, realizing she was serious. Bloodfang had kept her sheltered. “No. Not humans or witches.

    Luca POVCassius showed his teeth the moment I reached for the SHADOWFEN keys. His golden eyes flashed as his wolf started to stir. If he didn’t control it soon, things would get messy.I raised an eyebrow, daring him to challenge my wolf. That he got attached so fast didn’t sit right with me. If he needed a reminder that the pack comes first, I was ready to give it.Before it got worse, Lucien stepped in between us. Big, broad, and solid, he didn’t just rely on strength his sharp blue eyes noticed everything, finding weaknesses in anyone who crossed him. His dirty blond hair and full beard gave him a tough, serious look that matched his role as alpha. “While Luca’s away, I’ll need your help setting up camp,” he said firmly.Cassius hesitated, holding onto the keys a little longer. Lucien growled and barked his command. Even an alpha knew not to ignore him. Cassius glared, clearly wanting more time, but finally handed over the keys.“Come on,” I growled, moving past Selena without a s

It wrapped around me like fire, stirring something deep, raw, and wild. My body reacted before my mind could.I shook my head, forcing control. My wolf growled inside me, eager, but I pushed it down. Alphas didn’t let instincts rule.Cassius’s words barely registered. “See? She lost her mate. She’s alone… and soon she’ll be in heat.”Selena flinched, fear flashing in her eyes. She looked fragile, like her survival was uncertain. But I couldn’t let that sway me. I pushed the wild urge aside and turned it into anger instead.“You brought a wolf in heat here?” I ba
