LOGINSelene's POV
At that moment I remembered the last time we had talked about Victor. How angry Ethan had been. How he had seen the pain in my eyes and demanded I divorce Victor immediately. How he had sworn that no one wo
Selene's POV Sapphire closed the door behind us."Three days of work," she said.I looked at the table. Then I looked at the walls. Then I looked at the table again.It was buried. Not stacked neatly, not modestly organised, but completely buried under files and print
Selene's POV I was exhausted down to my bones by the time I left the castle.The argument with Ethan had wrung something out of me that the quiet of my room afterward had not been able to put back. I lay there for a while in the dark, staring at the ceiling, but the room was too still and no amount of lying quietly in it was going to change that.I thought about Eli. About the sound of his laughter and the way he r
Victor's POV I gave the order with the kind of calm that came from having already decided and having no interest in being talked out of it."Prepare for the banquet," I said. "We are attending."The silence that followed was the kind that forms when a room full of people has received information they were not expecting and is trying to decide how to respond to it without overstepping.
Selene's POV Ethan looked at me, his jaw tight. He said nothing."Good," I said. "Then listen to me."I stood up and I did not raise my voice because I did not need to. The quieter I spoke right now, the more clearly he would hear every word."Let me tell you what Mel
Selene's POV Ethan's calls started coming in twenty minutes later. One after another, spaced just far enough apart that he was clearly trying to appear calm rather than rattled.

Whatever needed to be said between us was going to be said with both of us in the same room.When night had properly fallen and I had cle
Selene's POV Suddenly, Melissa straightened her shoulders and something changed in her expression. Like a new kind of energy moved in where the grief had been sitting, the brightness of a person who has been turning something over in their mind and has finally arrived at a plan they feel good about.I recognised that look. And honestly, it made me slightly nervous."I have been thinking," she started.
Daniella's POV I had to immediately inform Prince Ethan that Selene had gone to Nightshade Pack because I couldn't keep the information hidden.He was so mad at me for letting her go, so as soon as he gave me the order, I didn’t waste a second.I shifted into my wolf form, letting the familiar cra
Selene's POV "Let me fucking go!" I snapped, pushing at Victor’s chest.“Do you really think you can just leave me?” Victor asked sharply. “Just walk out like it means nothing?”I pushed harder at him, kicking my legs, but he pinned me down with his weight, holding me under him like I was his pris
Selene's POV "Seriously, Mel?" I blinked, not sure if I was dreaming."Yes, darling," Melissa replied with a smug nod, already sipping her second drink like she had no care in the world.I looked around again, still in shock. The place was packed with tall, muscular men, and every single one of th
Selene's POV“Selene!”Victor’s voice thundered in my ears.“Selene, wake up! Please… please, open your eyes!”I shot up with a scream, gasping, my heart slamming against my ribs. My eyes darted around, wild and confused, until they locked on him.Victor was on his knees in front of me, shaking, hi
