I couldn't stop pacing. The room felt small, the quiet between us felt heavy and solid.

“Words,” I spat, turning sharp on my heel. “She thinks words will stop Brom? He asked for blood, Kael. Blood.”

Kael stood still, his jaw clenched, hands curled at his sides. He was too calm.

"We're not giving him anyone," he said firmly. "Not this way.”

A hot anger burned in my chest.

“And when he brings war to our gates? When servants lie dead because you wanted to play saint?”

The words came out like a growl then suddenly, my body seized up. A sharp, white pain shot through me. I couldn't breathe. My legs gave out and I crashed to the floor. I coughed violently, and blood splattered onto the stone.

Not again.

The connection between us tightened, pulling me deeper into the pain. My chest felt crushed, the world shrinking to nothing but agony.

Blood ran from my nose, warm and metallic on my lips. My head buzzed, my sight blurred. The torchlight seemed to flare violently, making shadows dance wildly

    Kael's POVAurora quickly moved to support me, slipping under my arm to hold me up. I wanted to shrug her off and act like I was fine, but my legs were shaking so much I nearly pulled us both down."Stop fighting it," she said, her voice tight with concern. "You're only making it harder."I clenched my teeth, holding back a cry as pain burned through my chest.Everything became a blur as we moved through the halls. She kept a firm grip around me, her other hand pressed against my side as if she could keep me from falling apart.By the time we reached my chamber, I was drenched in sweat. She kicked the door shut behind us and half-pulled me toward the bed. Aurora knelt in front of me, eyes fierce. “What is happening to you, Kael? Don’t tell me it’s nothing I saw your brother, I saw the blood. You both looked like you were being ripped apart.”I forced a weak laugh, though it sounded more like a choke. “We’ve had worse.”“Don’t you dare joke.” Her hands caught my face, cool against my

    I shoved the door open. The air in the room was thick and heavy. Kael was bent over the map, gripping the table's edge so hard his knuckles were white.Brynjar stood by the fireplace, still as a stone, arms crossed. His jaw was tight. Silas, Kael's usually calm Beta, was gone, probably already working on some plan I didn't know about yet.They both looked up as I walked in. The pressure in their stares felt like a punch.Well?” Kael’s voice was stripped of all its usual mockery. It was flat, hard. “Did you find your answers at the bottom of a bottle?”I ignored the dig and went to the table. The map showed our northern border, the villages Stonepeak had threatened to burn. Every mark was a town that could be destroyed."The bottle didn't have answers," I said, meeting his hard look. "Just more questions. We're thinking about this the wrong way.”“Enlighten us,” Kael shot back, straightening up. “Because from here, it looks like we have two and a half days before a good portion of our

    Maris hummed doubtfully but stayed quiet. she watched me closely, as if waiting for me to mess up and say something wrong.I cleared my throat.“We shouldn’t linger in the halls. The guards are still watching us, even if we can’t see them. Talking like this..” I let the warning hang, deliberate.Tessa paled and nodded quickly. “You’re right.”, “Fine. But don’t expect me to stop asking questions.” Maris said I forced another smile, “Ask all you like. Just don’t do it where someone can hear you. Rumors are dangerous currency in this palace.”That shut them both up, though Maris’s eyes narrowed again, thoughtful.“I just need air,” I added, softening my tone. “It’s been… too much. I’ll be fine.”“Should we come with you?” Tessa asked immediately.I shook her head. “No. Stay. If anyone asks, tell them I went to lie down. I just… need a moment to breathe.”Maris frowned but didn’t push. “Don’t stay out too long. Eyes are everywhere right now.”I nodded, “I won't" ***The night air was c

    The messenger’s warning hung in the air, “Three days.”Rael’s roar shook the walls. “Get out!” he snarled, and the messenger fled.My cool act fell apart. I slammed my fist into the stone. “This is a trap. No matter what we do, we’re cornered.”Rael’s chest heaved. His eyes burned. “Then we drag the poisoner out and gut them for all to see!”He commanded his Beta. “Brynjar! Search every hall, every chamber. Tear this palace apart if you have to!”Silas, ever cautious, spoke carefully. “We can’t just throw claws blindly. We have one lead, Lucan. He’s the one who should be questioned.”I stepped forward, jaw tight. “Then I’ll go to Lucan myself.”Rael let out a short, bitter laugh. “Perfect. Go play diplomat with a snake. See how far that gets you.”He turned for the doors.Seraphine blocked his path. “Rael, where are you going?“To cool my head,” he snapped. His tone dropped heavy. “Or better, away from this nonsense.”“You can’t just walk away from this!” I snarled after him.Rael gl

    Kael’s POVThe door to the council room closed, shutting out the noise from the hall. The quiet inside felt heavy and tense.Mother stood by the fireplace, pressing her fingers to her head. Aurora stood near her, pretending to look concerned, but her eyes were watchful and sharp.Rael paced back and forth like a trapped wolf. "This is bad. A total disaster.""Worse than that," I said, my voice calm but serious. "Someone tried to poison two princes and a visiting Alpha right here in our home. This isn't just a disaster, it's an act of war.""But who would do this?" Mother asked, her voice tense. "Lucan? He has the most to gain if this succeeds.”"Lucan likes to take chances, but he's not stupid," I said. "Poison isn't his style. He'd rather fight us out in the open. This... this was a clever plan. It was meant to make us seem weak and break our friendships with other packs.""The Stonepeak Pack will demand answers we do not have,” Mother said, stating the hard truth.“Alpha Brom ma
