Selena's world tilted on its axis, the forest's hush amplifying the thunder of her heartbeat. His arm remained banded around her waist, a possessive touch that both terrified and electrified her. The coolness of his body contrasted sharply with her feverish warmth, and she could feel the subtle rise and fall of his chest against her's, syncing unnaturally with her ragged breaths.

His face hovered at her neck, inhaling her scent like a man starved, fangs grazing her pulse in a feather-light car

    Lydia lingered by the door after Ryker's left, her fingers twisting the hem of her apron. The evening sun shines through the windows, casting warm pools on the wooden floor, but a chill of unspoken worry clung to her.She turned to Selena, who was already moving toward the kitchen, and paused. 'Wait, love—before we dive into lunch. You asked for that scent-masking herb earlier, didn't you? For your... Hunting herbs or whatever you called it.'Selena froze mid-step, her pulse quickening at the reminder. 'Oh, right. Yeah, Ma. Thanks.' Lydia pressed the small clay jar into her hand, the earthy aroma wafting up—clover and pine, strong enough to dull even the sharpest trails.'Be careful out there,' Lydia murmured, her eyes searching Selena's face. 'The woods can play tricks on a young wolf's mind.'Selena nodded, forcing a casual smile as she tucked the jar away. They settled at the table, the spread of bread, cheese, and stew steaming invitingly. But as Lydia reached for the ladle, Selen

    The words hung in the air. 'I want to eat you.' Lucien's red eyes burned with that feral intensity, pinning Selena in place on the hut's clean floor. Her cough turned into a sputter, saliva catching in her throat as a rush of heat flooded her body—from her cheeks down to the tips of her toes.The bundle of food sat forgotten between them, steam curling lazily from the stew, but her appetite had vanished, replaced by a dizzying mix of alarm and something dangerously close to curiosity. Her wolf stirred restlessly inside her, hackles rising at the blatant claim in his voice, yet intrigued by the pull of his presence.Selena swallowed hard, forcing her gaze away from his lips, which curved in that knowing, almost playful smirk. 'You... you can't just say things like that,' she managed, voice breathy and unsteady.She scooted back an inch, knees drawing up as if to create a barrier, though the space between them felt charged, electric.Lucien leaned forward slightly, elbows on his knees,

    The afternoon sun hung over the village, casting lazy shadows through the lace curtains of the modest kitchen. Lunch had been a hurried affair—simple stew with fresh bread, the kind that filled the belly but left the heart yearning for more.Selena scraped the last bits from her bowl, her mind already racing ahead, a whirlwind of excuses and secrets churning in her gut. Lydia, her mother, hummed softly as she wiped her mouth, oblivious to the storm brewing in her daughter's eyes.No sooner had the plates clattered into the sink than Selena was on her feet, water splashing as she attacked the dishes with frantic vigor. Her hands moved like lightning, scrubbing, rinsing, stacking—then darting to the dining table to fold napkins and align chairs with military precision.The kitchen counters gleamed under her assault, every spice jar placed back into place, every crumb banished. Time was her enemy, ticking away with each second she lingered.In her haste, she rushed past Lydia, who was ri

    The weight of Elder Thorne's revelations about Elian's scent still lingered in the chamber like smoke. Kael's hand had not left Elian's waist, a constant reminder of his claim, but now the air thickened with a new undercurrent of tension as Thorne cleared his throat, his gaze sharpening with purpose."My king," the elder began, straightened slowly, folding his hands behind his back.“I came before the disturbance earlier,” he began, voice calm but deliberate, “to inform you of an important matter.”A pause.Then—“The Alpha Title Trial of the Silvermist Pack will take place in one week.”Elian’s breath stilled.Silvermist.His pack.Your presence is not merely required; it is honored, a beacon to rally the packs under your banner. The moon will witness your unchallenged dominance."Kael's jaw tightened. The trial was no secret to him—a brutal spectacle of combat and cunning, where alphas vied for prestige. He nodded curtly, his voice a low rumble. "As it should be. Proceed."Thorne's

    The heavy oak doors of the meeting room creaked open under Kael's firm push, revealing a chamber bathed in the golden flicker of hearthfire and the soft glow of enchanted lanterns. Ancient tapestries lined the walls, showing snarling wolves under moonlit skies and ethereal figures weaving spells amid swirling mists—reminders of the kingdom's storied past.At the far end, seated on a carved throne of dark walnut, was Elder Thorne, his silver hair falls like a waterfall over shoulders hunched by centuries of wisdom. His eyes, sharp as flint and clouded with the haze of age, fixed immediately on Elian, nostrils flaring subtly as the young man's unmasked scent wafted into the room like an invisible banner.Kael's hand remained steady at the small of Elian's back. The touch grounded Elian amid the sudden rush of exposure. What if they see right through me? Elian's thoughts fluttered into Kael's mind, laced with a quiet dread that twisted like vines in his chest. Kael squeezed gently, his p

    Selena's mind raced as the weight of Lucien's gaze bore into her back like a brand. The village stirred faintly—smoke from distant fires, the low murmur of pack members returning from their tasks—but no one had spotted them yet.Her heart hammered, torn between the urge to bolt inside and slam the door on this impossible intruder, and the inexplicable pull that made her glance over her shoulder at him.Lucien walked a step behind, the deer slung over his shoulder like it weighed nothing, his red eyes fixed on her with that same devoted intensity. His free hand twitched as if longing to reach for her, to draw her to his side where she belonged—at least, in his mind.What am I doing? she thought, pulse quickening. Bringing a vampire home or something else? The pack would tear him apart if they knew. But chasing him off felt wrong, like abandoning a wounded pup. Her wolf stirred, a low rumble of approval for their mate, urging her to protect him as fiercely as he protected her.She turne

    The heat between them felt like a storm on the verge of breaking—Kael's hands firm on Elian's hips, their bodies together in that desperate grind, breaths mingling in ragged harmony. Elian's mind spun, a whirlwind of sensation: the rough stone at his back, the unyielding press of Kael's arousal aga

    It felt like the air broke, that's the only way to describe it. One moment Elian was standing in the garden—the next Everything collapsed around him.A rush of wind, blurry shadow and suddenly the world was gone, when Elain could see again they were no longer outside.Stone walls surrounded them.D

    Selena Pov.The first rays of dawn came too quickly.Mist clung to the pack’s territory, floating through the air like restless spirits, and it pulled me from a sleep that hadn’t truly been sleep at all—just a long, exhausting night. My eyes fluttered open to the dim light slipping through the crac

    The castle felt different without him. Quieter, yes, but the silence carried an undercurrent of unease, like the hush before a storm. Elian moved through the long corridors with deliberate slowness, his boots whispering against the polished stone floors. The servants he passed averted their eyes,
