The study felt strangely empty after the commander departed.The heavy wooden door closed behind him with a solid thud, leaving only Eugene, Max, and Jack inside the room.Maps remained scattered across the desk, reports lay open with several locations that had already been circled in red ink.Yet Eugene's attention wasn't on any of them. His gaze lingered on the doorway where Desmond had disappeared moments ago and a frown settled on his face.Something felt wrong.Desmond had always been dangerous, always calculating. Even as children, Eugene had learned that every action from his half-brother carried a purpose or a hidden meaning and now Desmond had suddenly volunteered information about the rogues.That alone made Eugene very suspicious and he had become wary.Max broke the silence first."I don't trust him" he said.Eugene wasn't surprised. Max hadn't trusted Desmond for years, even before the numerous battles that had happened between them.Jack folded his arms."Neither do I" h
Becca's angry glare remained fixed entirely on Kaelyn.The baby in her arms shifted slightly, making a small sound that briefly broke the tension but not nearly enough.Becca slowly folded her arms across her chest."Excuse me?"Her voice was dangerously calm.Kaelyn blinked."I didn't mean—" she started but Becca stopped her."Stop giving Eugene a hard time?" Becca repeated.Mira immediately sighed.Oh no.The healer pinched the bridge of her nose while Tyler simply watched in confusion.Kaelyn shifted uncomfortably."I was only saying—""You were telling me how I should react" Becca cut her off sharply.Kaelyn frowned."That's not what I meant" she said."It sounded exactly like that" Becca retorted. The room grew increasingly tense then Mira immediately stepped forward."Becca."But Becca barely heard her. Days of hurt, betrayal, fear, and anger suddenly came rushing back.Kaelyn looked increasingly uncomfortable."I wasn't trying to upset you" she said softly. Becca laughed once
The servants' quarters were unusually busy that morning. Maidservants hurried from room to room carrying baskets of laundry.Others scrubbed floors, polished furniture, or prepared linens for the guest chambers.The entire area buzzed with activity and at the center of it all stood a very unhappy Greta.A broom rested in her hands as she aggressively swept the floor with far more force than necessary.Dust scattered across the wooden boards and a nearby maid jumped back."Greta!""What?" Greta snapped.The younger maid frowned."You almost hit my feet" she said.Greta rolled her eyes."Then move your feet" she replied fiercely. The girl looked offended as Greta immediately resumed sweeping.The younger maid muttered something under her breath before walking away but Greta ignored her.The truth was that her mood had been terrible ever since Mira reclaimed authority over the household staff.Once upon a time, Greta had been head maid, important, respected and feared by some.Now she w
Becca hated feeling weak. She had spent most of the night unconscious, trapped between darkness and pain while everyone around her fought to keep her and her unborn child alive.Now morning had fully settled over the Blackwood mansion, and golden sunlight streamed through the tall windows of the healer's chambers.The warmth should have been comforting. Instead, it made her restless. She was tired of lying in bed, tired of being treated like glass and most of all, tired of feeling helpless.Slowly, Becca pushed the blankets aside. Immediately, Tyler looked up from where he sat near the window."I don't think that's okay" he said.Becca blinked."Really?""No" he said.The answer came far too quickly.The healer, who was sorting herbs nearby, looked over her shoulder."I agree with him" she said.Becca sighed dramatically."Nobody asked either of you" she replied. Tyler folded his arms."You almost died yesterday" he reminded her."I didn't" Becca countered. "You almost did" he said
The atmosphere inside Eugene’s study was tense.Several maps were spread across the large oak desk while others hung pinned against the walls with markings indicating patrol routes, rogue sightings, and border reports from neighboring territories.The room smelled faintly of parchment, ink, and frustration that belonged almost entirely to Eugene.The Alpha King stood at the center of the room with his hands braced against the desk while his eyes remained fixed on one particular map.Max stood nearby and so did the new commander of Blackwood’s guard. Neither looked particularly eager to be the one to tell Alpha Eugene that finding the rogues would take time.Unfortunately, the commander had no choice."Alpha Eugene, the forest is large" he said carefully.Eugene's gaze never lifted from the map."I know how large my forest is" he said.The commander swallowed."We've already dispatched scouts.""Not enough.""Alpha Eugene—""Double them" he cut him off.The commander exchanged a helple
Morning sunlight filtered softly through the curtains of the healer’s chambers.For the first time in what felt like forever, the room felt peaceful.Becca stirred weakly beneath the blankets. A small frown appeared on her face as consciousness slowly returned.Everything felt strangely heavy, her body ached, her head felt foggy and fragments of last night flashed through her mind.Becca’s eyes immediately flew open and her hand shot instinctively to her stomach."The baby" She whispered. Her breathing quickened then she realized the pain wasn't nearly as bad. In fact, she felt significantly better than she remembered.Confused, Becca slowly pushed herself up against the pillows.That was when she noticed she wasn't alone.A man sat quietly in a chair beside her bed.He was tall, broad-shouldered, dark-haired and silver-eyed. He looked calm despite clearly having spent hours sitting there.The morning sunlight illuminated part of his face and despite how intimidating he appeared, the
Kaelyn’s legs trembled as she stood behind Alpha Eugene, her breaths shallow as the darkened forest seemed to press in around them. This situation was one she never thought she would never have to experience but the rogue wolves around her only made the reality hit harder.Moonlight fell in throug
Becca secured Lila's bandage with a precise knot, her jaw clenched. Her hands were steady, but fury burned beneath her skin like a second heartbeat. She had seen injuries like this before—deliberate, calculated and sadistic.Becca stepped back and wiped her hands with a cloth soaked in antiseptic
The midday sun filtered through the half-open wooden shutters of the Blackwood Pack infirmary, casting warm rays over the polished oak floors and shelves lined with jars, dried herbs, and handwritten scrolls. The scent of lavender, rosemary, and crushed mint mingled in the air, soothing the nerves
Eugene stood on the stone path outside the stables, the sound of his boots crunching underfoot as a stablehand approached, leading his black horse by the reins."Your horse is ready, Alpha," the stablehand said with a bow.Eugene gave a soft nod, his expression calm, but there was a flicker of anti
