BRIANA

I shoved open Linda's heavy front door so hard it banged against the wall, startling everyone inside. She was just about to serve breakfast to the pups when I barged in, and now every small face was staring at me in shock. Linda froze mid motion, a plate in her hands, and her mate, David, frowned in concern.

Heavy footsteps pounded behind me Milan had finally caught up. I'd ordered him to stay back earlier, giving myself five minutes of head start. My body was still sore from the ordeal I had just endured, but rage fueled me more than rest ever could.

"We need to talk," I said through clenched teeth. I fought hard to keep my tone calm for the pups' sake, but I could feel my anger burning beneath the surface.

Linda let out a slow sigh while David gave her a soft, reassuring smile, silently telling her to go with me. She bent down, smiling at the pups, promising she'd be back soon, then walked toward me. I spun on my heel, storming back outside, my glare landing on Milan. He stoo

    MORGANSitting quietly in the back seat of my vehicle, I waited with patience that burned like fire in my chest. Tonight was not a failure, far from it. Coming to Ivory Fangs had cost me land and money, yes, but what I gained was far greater. I had found the woman who would be my Luna.Briana George.She is not the mate the Moon Goddess chose for me, but that hardly matters. She is a she-wolf unlike any other, sharp, kind to her people, strong, and quick-witted. A wolf like that was born to grow a pack. Any man with sense would desire her. And she would be mine.I scrolled through my phone while waiting, rereading that fool's confession. Drake Summer's old Alpha in Moonveil Pack had been as mad as my father, forcing his own pup to reject Briana. What kind of deranged wolf would do that? He thought giving Drake to Laura Joss, backed by Blood Oath, was the better move. A mistake. Laura is nothing compared to the strength Briana carries in her spirit."Alpha Morgan, they're here," my dr

    BRIANAWatching the cars of Shadow Moon drive away, I finally let out a long sigh of relief and sink onto the pack house steps.The last five days had been exhausting.Between drawing up a peace treaty with Alpha Morgan, showing their wolves around our most important buildings, and keeping Morgan's wandering eyes and shameless advances under control I was ready to collapse.More than once, I'd been forced to break up fights.Shadow Moon wolves had this irritating habit of provoking mine, and when tempers flared, I quickly tossed the guilty ones into our prison cell for a night to cool off.Morgan hated that, of course, but Linda and I had made it clear: either he kept his wolves in check, or he could leave.He grumbled, but he listened, and by the third day, the fights finally stopped.The only wolf from their pack who seemed willing to be civil was Titus.I even invited him over for a poker game at my cottage.Peter, Milan, and I absolutely robbed him blind, walking away with three h

    DRAKEThe parking lot filled with the sound of engines as the buses and vans from Silver Paw pulled in. My wolves, my people, couldn't contain their excitement. They bounced on their heels, smiling, laughing, almost trembling with relief. For three long days we had been hiding out, resting but never really relaxing, always looking over our shoulders in case Marcus sent someone to drag us back to Moonveil. Every shadow, every noise had made us flinch.Now, seeing Silver Paw's vehicles, the air felt lighter, like freedom was finally within reach."Alpha Drake?" a man called out as he stepped down from the first bus."Just Drake, please, Mister..." I replied, stretching out my hand.Instead of shaking it, he scoffed and brushed past me, his eyes searching until they landed on Peter. With a grin so wide it nearly split his face, he wrapped my best friend in a crushing hug."Peter! Finally joining the pack, huh?"Peter chuckled, hugging him back like they were long lost brothers. "Yeah. M

    BRIANA"I'll handle this," Alpha Morgan sighs, setting his briefcase on the table before striding toward the coffee machine. He pours two steaming cups and places them down with practiced ease, his hand immediately reaching for the cream and sweetener. Beside him, Titus quietly adds milk and sugar to his own. The way they move feels mechanical, almost like they've done this hundreds of times before, and I can't help but watch with a flicker of amusement."Well," Alexander says, his sharp gaze never leaving the visiting alpha, "we received the copies from your lawyer by email, but I'm guessing you brought your own set?"Morgan lets out a low growl, his voice rumbling with irritation. Instinctively, I growl back without hesitation, my warning clear. He might be an alpha, but this is our land, and I will not let him walk in and disrespect anyone here. His eyes snap toward me, filled with curiosity and something darker, greedier. I meet his stare head on, letting him feel the edge of m

    BRIANASitting at the meeting table across from Linda and David,I keep my eyes fixed on their faces as their expressions shift like waves-shock, curiosity, disgust, and then back to shock again. It is clear they had no more idea about this than I did.Everything about Drake's suffering at Marcus' hands, the truth of his silence, all of it was hidden from us. My heart twists with pity for my ex, though I try not to let it show too much on my face.We still have about two hours before Alpha Morgan joins us to discuss the brutal attack his father carried out against Silver Paw and the reparations he owes. Instead of waiting idly, I decided earlier to link Linda and David and bring them here into the soundproof room, laptop in hand."Who else knows about this?" David finally asks, his voice breaking the heavy silence.Lowering my mug of coffee, I glance between them and notice the weariness in both their eyes. It is a lot to take in, even for me. But if all this is true, then Drake did no

    BRIANABalancing the last bowl of salad in my hands,I follow Evette out to the long tables set up near the bonfire. The flames crackle warmly in the night air, laughter spilling across the clearing. I can't help but smile as I watch the Moonveil wolves, who will officially become part of Ivory Fangs next week, chat easily with our own pack. They already act like family, joking about training together and taking turns on patrol tomorrow.But beneath that lighthearted energy, something heavier lingers. The wolves who used to belong to Silver Paw sit stiffly, glaring at the Shadow Moon visitors. Their stares are filled with old grudges and distrust. On the other side, Shadow Moon keeps close to themselves, wary and reserved. I had worried this might happen since we didn't assign seating for the bonfire. Still, the hostility cuts deeper than I expected. A chill ripples through me even though the fire burns hot."Briana!"I turn to see Royce and Milan making their way toward me, and to my
