The torches along the hallway brought light as Jack moved quietly, his shoes striking the floor.The air here always felt heavy now. Since Desmond’s coup, everything had changed. Blackwood was no longer a place of strength and honor, it was a pack of fear.Jack turned a corner and stopped.A sharp voice broke the silence. “Do it again, you useless brats!”His jaw clenched. It was Ava.She stood in the center of the hallway, surrounded by three young maids, each trembling as she screamed at them. Their eyes were red, their hands shaking as they held silver trays that gleamed with food meant for Luna Seraphina.“You think I’ll let you serve Luna Seraphina’s table with dust on your hands?” Ava sneered. “Becca might have tolerated filth, but I won’t. You hear me? I’m not some Omega’s maid.”The smallest girl flinched under her words, bowing repeatedly. “I’m sorry, Miss Ava—”The tray slipped and a silver cup fell to the floor.Ava’s face twisted with fury. “Pathetic!” she spat. She r
Desmond stood in his chambers, bare-chested, the weight of his new crown resting on the table beside him. He ran a hand through his hair, staring at his reflection in the polished glass of the window.“It feels good,” he murmured. “Better than I ever imagined.”From across the room, Seraphina laughed softly.“I told you it would,” she said. “You always underestimated what power could taste like.”Desmond turned toward her, his eyes burning with pride and hunger. “Power, yes,” he said, pacing slowly towards her. “But not this kind. Before, I was Alpha, the strongest of the Blackwood line, the ruler of a pack loyal by name but divided by fear and doubt. Now…” He picked up the crown and stared at it. “Now I am supreme with no council to appease, no brother to rival me, no Goddess to question my worth.”He placed the crown on his head, letting the weight settle there.“I should have done this years ago.”Seraphina tilted her head, her hair gleaming in the candlelight. “True, we were pa
Becca’s jaw clenched as Luna Seraphina's moved through all of them in a condescending way. Her long hair fell in waves over her shoulders, and the crescent emblem of the Luna Queen glinted proudly on her chest. She was followed by several armored guards who were here to make sure Becca, Mira and Max stayed back. Every step she took was deliberate, graceful, regal and venomous. “Well,” Seraphina purred, her voice slicing through the silence, “look what we have here.” Her eyes moved througb the chamber then lingered on Becca. A sharp and poisonous smile curved her lips. “The little rejected Omega,” she said softly. “Still breathing. How surprising.” Becca’s fingers curled into fists at her sides, but she said nothing, not yet. Seraphina’s laughter rang out, smooth and cruel. “You know, when Desmond told me he had you locked away, I just had to see it myself. The infamous Becca, Eugene’s precious little charity case.” Mira stiffened. “Don’t call her that,” she whispered. Ser
Eugene sat slumped against the dungeon wall, his eyes filled with anger.He had never imagined his life would come to this.Desmond’s name alone made Eugene’s jaw clench. He could still see his half-brother’s smirk in his mind, that familiar smugness visible on his face.Desmond had always been ambitious, restless, hungry for more, but Eugene had believed, foolishly, that the blood they shared meant something.Now, bound by chains in the dungeon, he realized how wrong he had been.He lowered his head, the weight of everything pressing against him until his breath came out ragged. His thoughts moved toward Becca, Max, and Mira, the three people he couldn’t stop worrying about.Where are they?He could still see the guards dragging them away and he overhead one talking about taking them to one of the lowet chambers, far from this wretched pit.Far from him.A low growl escaped his throat. The wolf within him stirred restlessly, clawing against his chest in anger and helplessness, but t
The iron door had not opened once since last night. The air inside the chamber was cold and heavy, filled with the faint scent of blood and anger. The single lantern in the corner flickered weakly, casting trembling shadows that were across the walls like ghosts. Becca sat curled up against the far end of the room, her arms wrapped around her knees. Her hair was tangled, her once-clean dress torn from the struggle that had brought them here. She hadn’t slept, not truly. Every time she closed her eyes, she saw Eugene’s face as the guards dragged him away, and she had done nothing to stop it. Across from her, Mira paced the room like a caged wolf, her expression evident with anger and worry. The rhythmic click of her shoes echoed faintly each time she turned. “They have forgotten us,” she muttered, mostly to herself. “That’s what Desmond wants. For us to rot in here while he parades around with his stolen crown.” Max stirred where he sat by the end of the room, the dim light
The Moon Council demanded to enter the throne room and they had authority even Desmond couldn’t simply ignore, not without consequences.Jack stepped forward. “Alpha,” he said quietly, “we should at least hear them out. It would show strength.”Desmond glanced over his shoulder, his eyes gleaming with cold amusement.“Jack, do you think I’ve taken control of this pack to prove it to anyone?”Jack swallowed the bitterness rising in his throat. Desmond’s arrogance had become unbearable since the coup, and the weight of guilt pressed harder.Desmond tilted his head toward the sound, his eyes gleaming of the Councillors demanding audience.“Well,” he murmured, “since they’ve come all this way, let’s not keep our guests waiting.”He walked down, his shoes echoing against the marble floor. Jack followed closely behind, trying to read his Alpha’s expression.The guards opened the throne room doors, revealing the grand courtyard bathed in morning light.And there they were.Six members of th
