The moon hung low and bloated in the sky, casting everything in harsh silver light as Wendy stood in the center of the Royal Pack's great hall. Her eyes were closed, but beneath her lids, silver light pulsed like a heartbeat. Through the marked wolf network - that twisted web of connections the Collector had built over centuries - she could feel them.

  • The Silver Wolf's Betrayal   Chapter 7: The Rot Within

    The moon hung low and bloated in the sky, casting everything in harsh silver light as Wendy stood in the center of the Royal Pack's great hall. Her eyes were closed, but beneath her lids, silver light pulsed like a heartbeat. Through the marked wolf network - that twisted web of connections the Collector had built over centuries - she could feel them. Three sources of wrongness in the pack, like infected wounds in otherwise healthy flesh."Southeast tower," she whispered, her voice carrying an otherworldly echo. "Third floor corridor near the armory. And..." her brow furrowed, "the kitchen stores, behind the wine cellar."Byrde nodded to his guards, who moved out silently. He stayed close to Wendy, watching as the silver marks on her skin glowed brighter with each passing second she maintained the connection."There's something else," Wendy said, her voice strained. "The one in the tower... Byrde, he's not newly marked. The magic feels old. Settled. Like it's been there for—"She gasp

    The training chamber beneath the Royal Pack castle felt older than the structure above it. Stone walls curved inward like the inside of an egg, covered in symbols that seemed to shift when Wendy wasn't looking directly at them. Fifty candles stood on iron pedestals arranged in perfect circles around the room, their flames casting dancing shadows that made the carved symbols appear alive."Your power responds to emotion," Aria said, standing in the center of the innermost circle. Her silver-marked skin caught the candlelight in ways that made her seem to glow from within. "Most wolves learn control through discipline. You must learn through understanding."Wendy stood opposite her grandmother, trying not to fidget under that ancient silver gaze. The scars on her left side tingled constantly now, a low-level burn that never quite went away. She'd changed into training clothes - simple black leggings and a tank top that left her marked skin visible. Every time she moved, she caught glimp

    "You knew?" My voice shakes as I stare at my mother. "You knew what I was and didn't tell me?"The council chamber feels suffocating despite its size. Every important wolf in the Royal Pack is here, all staring at me like I'm a ticking bomb."I suspected," Mom says quietly. "But I hoped I was wrong. The Silver Moon Wolf is just a legend-""Apparently not," the eldest council member interrupts. He's pulled out an ancient book, its pages yellow with age. "It's all here. 'When the moon bleeds silver and the marked one bears lightning scars, the weapon of ending shall rise.'""Weapon of ending?" I repeat. "That sounds bad.""It is," Victoria says from her seat. She's somehow managed to insert herself into this meeting. "According to the prophecy, the Silver Moon Wolf will either unite all supernatural creatures or destroy them all. No in-between.""That's insane," Byrde says. "Wendy isn't going to destroy anyone.""Isn't she?" Victoria stands, addressing the room. "Look at what's happened

    The Royal Pack is nothing like Lake Moon. Where my old pack was modern buildings and neat lawns, this place is ancient. The castle rises from the mountain like it grew from the stone itself, all towers and battlements under a darkening sky."Welcome to your new home," Byrde says, his hand warm on my lower back.It's been three days since the attack. Three days of traveling in armored vehicles, constantly looking over our shoulders. The silver scars on my side throb with each heartbeat, a constant reminder of how close I came to death."It's beautiful," I whisper."It's the safest place in the kingdom," the King says from ahead of us. "These walls have stood for a thousand years. They'll protect you."But as we enter through massive iron gates, I can't shake the feeling that we're walking into a trap.The pack members line the courtyard, all wanting to see their prince's mate. Their stares range from curious to hostile. I hear the whispers:"A silver wolf?" "The traitor's daughter?"

    "Don't move."Byrde pushes me behind him, his body tense as he scans the room. The metallic smell of blood fills my nose, making my stomach turn. The message on the wall drips red, still fresh."Guards!" he roars.Within seconds, six warriors burst in. They freeze when they see the blood."Find Luna Margaret. Now." Byrde's voice is deadly calm, but I can feel his rage through our bond. "Lock down the pack. No one leaves.""Yes, Your Highness."As they rush out, Byrde turns to me. His hands cup my face, checking for injuries. "Did you see anyone? Hear anything?""No, I was in the storage room when-""Your Highness!" A young guard runs in, face pale. "The Luna... she's gone. Her car is missing. The patrol at the border said she drove through twenty minutes ago."Byrde curses. "Track her. I want every available warrior on this.""There's more," the guard swallows hard. "She... she took someone with her."My heart stops. "Who?""The Gamma's daughter. Sarah Winters."I sink onto the bed. S

    The celebration is in full swing by the time I emerge from the storage room. I had no choice - Luna Margaret sent three warriors to drag me out if necessary. Now I stand in the corner of the ballroom, holding a tray of champagne glasses, trying to become invisible.The packhouse has been transformed. Crystal chandeliers cast golden light across the crowd of elegantly dressed wolves. Everyone who matters is here - Alphas from neighboring packs, council members, warriors in their formal uniforms.And him.Prince Byrde stands at the center of it all, surrounded by admirers. He's changed into a black tux that fits him perfectly, emphasizing his powerful build. Every unmated female in the room circles him like hungry sharks, but his eyes keep scanning the crowd.Looking for me.Our eyes meet across the room, and the tray shakes in my hands. He starts walking toward me, but Sarah intercepts him, pressing her body against his arm."Prince Byrde," she purrs, "you must let me show you our pack
