Diana

The force of the collision is so great it sends me stumbling backward.

After blocking and dissipating the bolt of darkness, the shield of light that protected me disappears, leaving only a heat against my skin.

Dominicus’s eyes flicker over me. A single heartbeat to confirm I’m unharmed. Then—

Chaos erupts.

Dominicus's roar of fury shakes the very ground as he turns back to Thomas. The Amadeus warriors surge forward as well in a wave of fur and fangs. But Thomas is already moving, his now free hand clawing at his own wrist with frantic desperation.

I see his teeth sink into his flesh, blood spraying as he bites down to the bone. Then -

A sound like thunder cracks through the clearing.

Darkness explodes from Thomas's wrist, a swirling vortex of black smoke that reeks of burning herbs and rotting flesh. The stench is so overpowering I gag, my eyes watering as the acrid smoke burns my throat.

Dominicus's claws slash through the unnatural fog, his massive form barely visibl

    Diana"Have you ever given it to anyone?" Dominicus asks."No," I say immediately with a shake of my head. "I've never taken it off since you gave it to me."His eyes narrow. "Has anyone else touched it?"A memory surfaces - Marcus's filthy fingers grabbing at the necklace when he tried to kidnap me last time. "Well... Marcus did. When he-""No." Dominicus cuts me off with a sharp gesture. "That worthless bastard couldn't conjure a spark, let alone light magic this powerful." His lip curls. "And wolves don't wield magic."His thumb brushes over the engraving. "Think harder, dulcis. Who else?"I shake my head, “No, no one else-“ suddenly, a memory surfaces."Ellen”, I breathe, "It was just—it was nothing, really," I rush to explain. "At the diner, when you took me there last time. The clasp came undone without me noticing. It was just... hanging there on my shirt… she picked it up and handed it back to me. That was all.""Ellen?" he repeats, his brows furrowed.I nod.I watch as his ey

    Diana "What the fuck?" The words leave my lips before I can stop them. Ellen—no, Eleanor—simply smiles wider and pushes open her front door. She adjusts her glasses, a floral apron tied around her waist. "Well?" She smiles, warm as ever. "Are you coming in, or shall I let the pot roast burn?" The moment we step through Eleanor's front door, warmth wraps around me like a grandmother's embrace. The scent of rosemary and slow-cooked meat fills the air, mingling with something earthy—dried herbs hanging from the ceiling beams? No—floating. Actual bundles of sage and thyme drift lazily near the rafters, untethered by string or logic. Dominicus's scowl deepens as he takes in the impossible cottage interior—the ceiling that stretches higher than the exterior should allow, the grandfather clock with planets instead of numbers, the teapot that whistles a jaunty tune entirely on its own. I blink. Yeah, definitely never saw that at the diner. "Eleanor—" he begins, his voice thunderous.

    Diana“Now,” Eleanor says, and the air in the room changes, “let’s get down to business.”Dominicus doesn’t wait. He surges to his feet, fury crackling off him like heat from a wildfire. “Why are you here, Eleanor?” he demands. “Why are you in my territory pretending to be a human? How long have you been here?”“Why didn’t you show yourself? Why take on this appearance? Why approach my mate?” He’s pacing now. “Why enchant her necklace? What do you know? No—” he cuts himself off with a harsh breath, “you must know a lot.”His voice is jagged. Sharp with years of unanswered questions.“So why the fuck have you hidden yourself all this time?”The silence that follows is thick. Tense. Eleanor studies him. There’s no fear in her eyes. Just something old and sad.“Be patient, child,” she says softly. “All will be answered. And you will understand.”He glares at her, breath ragged, but when she doesn’t move, doesn’t waver, he exhales a slow, frustrated growl and drops back into his seat wit

    DianaHis hands clench, knuckles white, and my heart drops as I watch him.Eleanor sees it too—sees both our faces. Her expression folds into something quietly mournful. A sad smile tugs at the corner of her lips, and she looks away, into the crackling fire.“You remained that way because I was unable to reverse the curse. I don’t have that ability-“He sneers and she insists, “I swear it!”“I swear Dominicus, if I could have reversed it, I would have. But I couldn’t. I couldn’t make a single dent in it. I tried”, she swallows, “That kind of terrible curse would require a lot of powerful witches to cast and even more sacrifices”. “It didn’t work so I decided to stay. Not just because you were important to the world,” she says softly. “I stayed because I was worried. About you.”Dominicus still doesn’t speak. But something in his shoulders shifts—just slightly. I see it. The smallest ripple of emotion beneath all that control.“I wanted to keep an eye on you,” she says, “to make sure

    Diana I look between them, heart pounding. “Wait—what’s so special about the knife?” Dominicus’s eyes find mine, grim and steady. “The hilt is made from the bone of the first Amadeus Alpha. The founder of our bloodline. It’s said that he carved it himself. Ripped out his own femur bone and shaped it with his teeth and claws.” I stare at him, stunned. “He used his own bone?” He nods once. “That knife was used during the very first Binding Ceremony—the ritual that created the first generation of Amadeus wolves. It was a pact with the land, forged in sacrifice and magic. That relic isn’t just sacred—it’s foundational. It holds the essence of our entire bloodline.” My mouth goes dry. “So when Thomas gave it to them—” “They corrupted it,” Eleanor finishes, her voice barely above a whisper. Her gaze goes distant, like she’s staring into something vast and terrible. “Now it all makes sense.” Dominicus leans forward, his jaw tight. “Eleanor.” She blinks, and turns to him. She

    DianaEleanor exhales slowly, rage still simmering beneath her composure. “They waited… until every last wolf was home, and then started the curse. It spread through the land’s magic like a virus in a bloodstream,” she says.“And it couldn’t be stopped,” I whisper.“No,” she answers quietly. “Because it wasn’t meant to be. The spell wasn’t just targeting minds—it was targeting history. Legacy. It wanted to erase the Amadeus name from existence.”She looks at us both now. “And because the spell was fueled by ancestral magic—and because they used a sacred relic as the anchor—there was no reversing it. Not without destroying the land. Not without tearing apart the very foundation of your bloodline.”“And at that moment, there was no time to do any of that”.Her eyes focus on Dominicus.“But you survived,” she says. “The curse somehow couldn’t fully take hold in you. You resisted the madness, even when no one else could. That resistance… it proves what I’m saying. You’re truly special Dom

    Diana “That’s not all,” Eleanor says, her voice calm and certain. I glance at her from where I’m standing beside Dominicus, my arms wrapped around his broad shoulders. He’s seated across from her at the table, silent and still. He hasn’t spoken since she revealed the truth about the Soulforge Binding—about how she twisted a death curse into something that kept him tethered to this world. His silence is heavy, but not stunned. He’s focused. Sharp. Absorbing everything like a blade honed to perfection. Eleanor’s eyes are locked on him with something like wonder. There’s no fear in her expression. Only awe. “You’ve probably noticed it already,” she says, a slight, intrigued smile playing on her lips. “You’re constantly getting stronger, aren’t you?” Dominicus gives a single nod. He doesn’t elaborate. He doesn’t need to. I blink in surprise and glance down at him. Really? Wow. “Your body hasn’t stopped,” Eleanor continues. “It’s still absorbing magic—even now, as we speak. You are

    Diana She blinks, confused for a moment—then her expression softens in understanding. A smile curls her lips. “As I said earlier—she’s your Anchor Bond. The curse recognizes her as home. You’re bound, Dominicus. It won’t let her go.” She gestures to the mark on my neck. “As long as that bond holds—as long as you’re still mates—her lifespan is tethered to yours.” She turns to me with a teasing smile. “No need to worry, sweetie. You’ll be stuck with your grumpy Alpha for as long as he lives.” Relief hits me like sunlight breaking through clouds. I melt into Dom’s arms, and I feel him tighten his hold on me just a little more. Then Eleanor’s voice draws us back. “This appearance of yours,” she says thoughtfully, “unchanging and untouched by time… it’s probably part of why the Elders could never let you go. Even after everything—even through fear—they were drawn to you. They couldn’t resist. You terrified them, yes. But they wanted you too. Wanted to keep you close. Like mot

    Diana Her voice cuts crisply through the air. “The first time the Dark Mage was sealed… you said it took the Amadeus Alpha, the Primarch Arcana, and the Moon Goddess’s Priest.” Her eyes sweep the room, assessing. “Are you saying we’re going to repeat that now?” Dom nods once, calmly. “That’s right.” Alpha Livia’s brow furrows slightly. “And you, you’ll stand in for your ancestor?” Dom’s mouth curves in the faintest of smiles. “I will.” Her gaze sharpens. “That leaves the Primarch Arcana… and the Priest.” She casts a slow look around the table, then back at Dom again. “Until today, none of us even knew there was a Priest. Do you know where this Priest is?” Dom’s eyes flick briefly to me, and parts his lips to answer, “Yes. It’s-“ I finish for him. My voice quiet but clear. “-Me.” The room freezes. Every head turns. I keep my face composed, letting my voice carry evenly across the silent table. “Allow me to properly reintroduce myself. I am Diana Castellanos—Alpha

    Diana Suddenly, a voice slices sharply through the heavy silence. “We have to stop the ritual!” An Alpha halfway down the table shoots to his feet, his face flushed with urgency. His Beta, seated beside him, tugs lightly at his arm as if to steady him, but the Alpha shakes his head sharply, his eyes locking onto Dominicus. Dom doesn’t even flinch. His voice remains calm, almost weary. “Naturally.” He lets the word hang in the air for a beat, then tilts his head slightly. “How do you propose we do that?” The Alpha’s response is instant, raw with emotion. “Easy. We find them. We go to their coven and wipe them out—all of them.” Dom blinks once, slowly. Then gives a faint, almost pitying shake of his head. “Easy?” He leans in just slightly, his tone still smooth but edged with a dangerous undercurrent. “How exactly do you plan to find them? Don’t forget—these aren’t wolves we’re dealing with. They’re witches. You think you can find a witch who doesn’t want to be found?”

    DianaThe next Alpha my eyes land on pulls my attention instantly.He’s middle-aged, broad-shouldered, hulking—even among all these Alphas, he stands out as particularly powerful. His short-cropped hair and sharply cut features give him a severe, almost intimidating air.But what surprises me is the look on his face.Unlike the others, there’s no flicker of wariness, no veiled animosity in his gaze.Instead, he’s smiling. Calm. Almost amused, like he’s simply waiting for the meeting to begin, perfectly at ease.Intrigued, I shift my gaze to the third Alpha who stands out.And this time, I have to look twice.The Alpha, her Beta, and the two Gamma warriors flanking her… they’re all women.The Alpha meets my eyes directly—her expression steady, cool, unreadable. Then, with a small, polite nod, she acknowledges me before turning her attention back to Dom.All of this unfolds in seconds: quick assessments, sharp glances, the silent tension of predators sizing each other up.By the time my

    Diana I spot Dom waiting just down the hall, his arms crossed, his sharp eyes flick up as soon as come out me. His face softens—just slightly—and he reaches out. I walk up to him and slip my hand into his. Eleanor falls into step behind us, quiet and peaceful, her presence a steady pulse at my back. Together, the three of us move toward the wide double doors at the end of the hall—the conference room where today’s meeting is about to hold. The air feels thicker here, heavy with the scent of too many wolves, sharp anticipation, and something almost metallic — the bracing edge of challenge, perhaps, or simply the weight of so many packs gathered under one roof. As we near, an Amadeus warrior steps forward. Clyde. He bows smoothly. “Alpha. Luna.” He gives Eleanor a polite nod. “Ma’am.” Dom gives him a curt nod in return, but I offer Clyde a small smile. Eleanor answers warmly, “Hello dear.” Clyde straightens and says, “The packs have brought a fair number of warriors w

    DianaI blink, brow arching. Magnus almost mated to someone? That’s news to me.Can’t find it in me to care.The first girl nods eagerly. “Exactly! And it was super suspicious. It was supposed to be this huge deal — even our Alpha was invited — but just a week before the ceremony, it was called off.” She waves her hands for emphasis; the others nod vigorously.She leans in, voice dropping. “I heard Natasha left Zervos and went back to the Silvanus pack, then mated with an Omega from Plena Luna.”Another round of wide eyes and startled gasps.“It’s obvious why the ceremony was canceled,” she smirks. “Natasha met her real mate. Everyone thought Magnus set the match because he hadn’t found his mate yet… but he had. And he rejected her!”The gasps turn into soft curses. I catch words like scum and bastard tossed out under their breath, and I have to bite my lip to keep from laughing.The third girl eagerly nudges the first. “And? And?! What else?”The first girl glances around, then leans

    DianaWhat were they thinking?A low voice, warm and smug, ghosts by my ear.“See?” Dominicus says. “I won.”I don’t turn. I can feel the smirk behind his voice and the presence of him just a breath away.I shake my head slowly, incredulous. “They actually came…”“And with a whole damn parade,” he says with a huff of amusement.“Pompousness and posturing,” I mutter.He chuckles. “That’s what you bet against, dulcis.”I scowl, still watching the arrivals, still baffled by the absurdity of it all.“And now,” he says, voice low as he leans down slightly, “you owe me.”I start to ask what the terms were again, but then I feel his lips brush the shell of my ear, and his whispered words burn hotter than sunlight across my skin.My breath catches. My entire body flushes.Damn him.Dom steps back and with a sweeping motion of his arm, the corners of his mouth quirking upward, he says, “Ladies, shall we?”I pull my gaze away from the window, and roll my eyes at him. “Lets.”Behind me, Eleanor

    Diana “You’re on speaker, Alpha. They can all hear you now.” Dominicus doesn’t waste a breath. “Good,” he says, his tone flat, cold. “Then listen closely because this-“ he pauses, just long enough to make the weight of his next words settle into their bones, “—is the key to a ‘peaceful retirement’ for all of you.” There’s no trace of politeness. No deference. Only the weight of his authority, sharp as steel. The line is silent. No one dares interrupt. “Of the thirty-seven packs–,” he continues, “you each used to run one of the major nine.” Ten now - The Amadeus pack is back, I muse. “The rest of the smaller — scattered, less resourced packs are no less important. Therefore you are not only to go back to your own packs. You will each take responsibility for informing the Alphas of the minor packs in your regions. I don’t care how you do. Just get it done.” He paces a little, jaw tight. “You will tell them witches exist. You will tell them that dark witches have returned — tha

    Diana Billy takes a step forward and wraps me in his warm bear hug. I bury my face in his chest and hug him just as tight. He steps back, “See you in a bit, kid”, and with a little wave, turns around and strides back towards the cars. I watch as they begin to pile into the SUVs, Billy among them. He gives me one last wink, grinning crookedly before ducking into the lead car. The low growl of the engines rises as the vehicles roll down the driveway, kicking up small clouds of dust and mist in their wake. I watch until the last taillight vanishes into the mist. A warm arm curls around my shoulders, anchoring me to the earth. Dominicus presses a kiss to my temple, his voice a soft murmur against my hair. “Don’t worry, dulcis. They’ll be fine. And they’ll bring her back safely.” I close my eyes for a moment, breathing him in, clinging to the hope stitched into his words. I hope so. For Billy’s sake. For Emerald’s sake. For all of us…We don’t go inside right away.

    Diana “Wake me up early?” I mumble, already half-drifting again. “I wanna see Billy off in the morning.” “I will,” he promises, kissing the top of my head. Silence falls between us, soft and fragile. I’m just on the edge of sleep when his voice comes again, low and rough and achingly sincere. “Dulcis…” I hum in acknowledgment, too tired to form a real word. “The reason I’m not stopping you from fighting this war… isn’t because I care about you any less. I hope you know that. Right?” Something in his tone — the raw inflection, the brittle edge — tugs at me, pulling me back to him. I blink my eyes open and tilt my head up to look at him. In the muted light, his face is shadowed, but I can see it — the tightness around his mouth, the faint crease between his brows. And in his eyes — gods — there’s worry. Guilt. And buried much deeper, a sliver of fear so raw it makes my heart ache. I know what he’s thinking - what is weighing on him. It’s Billy’s words, thro
