FREYA'S POV

The security guard at the front desk looks up when I burst through the doors. He recognizes me, I can tell. He just nods and waves me through without asking questions. Probably seen this before. Probably seen other idiots run from Adrian and come crawling back.

The elevator ride up takes forever. I catch my reflection in the polished doors and wince. My hair is a complete disaster. My face is so pale I look like a ghost. My eyes are wild and red from crying.

I look completely insane.

I feel completely insane.

What if he doesn't want me anymore? What if I pushed too far this time? What if

The doors slide open.

The penthouse is so dark. So quiet. It feels empty but I know he is here. I can feel him somehow.

"Adrian?" My voice comes out cracked and small and terrified.

Nothing. Just silence.

I step inside anyway. The elevator closes behind me with a soft ding and suddenly I am trapped. I cannot back out now even if I wanted to.

"I know you're here." I move further into the li

    ADRIAN'S POV"You want me to do what?" Kelvin stares at me like I've lost my mind."Reach out to your contacts in Asher's pack. The ones who might be sympathetic to our cause. The ones who are tired of his leadership. The ones who might feed us information." I lean back in my chair. "You said yourself there are wolves in his pack who want out. Who hate what he's become. Let's use that.""You want me to build a spy network. Inside my father's pack. Using wolves who might be loyal to him. Who might report back everything I tell them." Kelvin shakes his head. "That's suicide Adrian. For me and for anyone who agrees to help.""Which is why we're careful. Why we only approach wolves you absolutely trust. Why we give them information that seems valuable but is actually useless. Why we use them to feed Asher false intelligence." I stand. Move to the window. "We can't win a straight fight. He has more wolves. More resources. More territory. But we can win through strategy. Through deception.

    FREYA'S POVI'm pushing too hard. I know I am. But I don't care.Three hours of training. Non-stop. Shifting partially. Holding it. Reversing. Again and again and again. Trying to break through whatever barrier keeps me from full shift."Freya. You need to rest." Clara wipes sweat from her forehead. "You're going to hurt yourself.""I'm fine. Again." I force another partial shift. My hands. My arms. Fur erupting. Then fading. "I need to get this. Need to master it. War is coming and I can't face it half-shifted.""You won't face it at all if you collapse from exhaustion." She moves closer. "You've been at this for hours. Your body needs recovery time. Needs rest. Pushing past your limits doesn't make you stronger. It makes you injured.""I don't have time for rest. Asher attacked yesterday. Killed two of our wolves. He's planning something bigger. I need to be ready." I try again. Full shift. Complete transformation. "Come on. COME ON."Nothing. Just partial. Just stuck between forms.

    FREYA'S POVEmma has been with us for a week and she's not adjusting well.She barely speaks. Barely eats. Stays in her room most of the time. The few times I've seen her she looks hollow. Empty. Like her sister's death took everything that made her Emma.I know that feeling. The grief. The guilt. The wondering if you could have done something different. Something that would have changed everything.Clara says to give her time. That grief takes as long as it takes. That pushing won't help.But I can't just leave her alone. Can't let her drown in guilt and loss without at least trying to reach her.So I knock on her door. "Emma? It's Freya. Can I come in?"Silence. Then. "I guess."I open the door. She's sitting on the bed. Staring at nothing. Dark circles under her eyes. Hair unbrushed. She looks like she hasn't slept in days."I brought food." I hold up a tray. "Clara made your favorite. Grilled cheese and tomato soup. You should eat something.""I'm not hungry.""You need to eat any

    ADRIAN'S POV - FLASHBACK CHAPTER200 Years Ago"Focus Adrian. An Alpha who can't control his shift is useless to his pack."My father's voice. Strong. Commanding. The voice that taught me everything about being Alpha. About leadership. About sacrifice.I'm Fifteen years old. Still learning. Still making mistakes. Still thinking I have time to figure it all out.I don't. I have five years before he dies. Before leadership falls on my unprepared shoulders. Before I learn that nothing prepares you for being Alpha. Not training. Not bloodline. Not anything."Again." He stands over me in the training yard. "Partial shift. Just your claws. Control it."I try. My whole arm shifts instead. Fur. Elongated limb. Claws but not the way he wanted."Too much. You're letting the wolf control the shift. You need to control the wolf." He demonstrates. Smooth. Perfect. Just his claws extending. Then retracting. "Like this. Precise. Controlled."I try again. And again. And again. Until finally. Hours la

    FREYA'S POVI wake up to sunlight and the smell of coffee.Adrian's side of the bed is empty but still warm. I can hear him moving around. The clink of mugs. The sound of the coffee maker. Domestic sounds that feel surreal after yesterday's darkness.I stretch. Everything is pleasantly sore. Last night was exactly what we both needed. Connection. Intimacy. Proof that we're still alive. Still capable of creating something beautiful together.I pull on one of his shirts and pad out to the kitchen. He's standing at the counter. Shirtless. Wearing just sweatpants. Making breakfast. Pancakes from the smell of it."You are cook?" I lean against the doorway. Admiring the view.He turns. Smiles when he sees me. A real smile. The first one since the execution. "I do many things. You just haven't seen most of them yet.""I like this domestic side of you." I cross to him. Wrap my arms around him from behind. "Alpha by day. Chef by morning. What other hidden talents do you have?""Guess you'll ha
