Ethan.

I was going to break something. My fist clenched, unclenched. Again. Again. I paced the room like a caged animal, the wooden floor groaning beneath my boots. My heart thundered in my chest, my breathing shallow and uneven. Every time I closed my eyes, her voice echoed in my head.

"I have a boyfriend, Ethan."

Boyfriend.

The word burned like acid. My jaw clenched so tightly I thought I’d crack a molar. Aurora had a boyfriend. Someone who wasn't me. Someone who got to kiss her, touch her, hold her while she slept—

"Stop." I growled under my breath, dragging a hand through my hair. My wolf growled low in my head, pacing right along with me.

You’re the one who rejected her, my wolf snapped. You told her she wasn’t yours. Don’t start now like you’ve got a claim.

"I didn’t mean it!" I roared, slamming my palm against the nearest wall. The impact reverberated through my bones, but the pain wasn’t enough to distract me. "I didn't—" I sucked in a ragged breath. "It was supposed to protec

    Ethan.I could feel the rage simmering inside of me, an angry storm I couldn’t escape. It had been building for days, maybe even weeks—this deep, gnawing frustration that Aurora had played with my emotions and pushed me into a corner. She had chosen her game, and now I was going to play by her rules. I didn’t care anymore about the little nuances or the games she liked to play. If this was what she wanted, I would indulge her, but I would do it on my own terms.I gritted my teeth as I stood there, eyes narrowed, my mind racing through the consequences of my decisions. But then, something shifted within me, and I knew what I had to do next.I called for Ivan.Within moments, there she was, standing in the doorway of my study, looking like a picture of innocence. The sweet, doe-eyed girl with all the right moves. She stepped inside, her eyes shining as she smiled at me, her confidence already radiating. It was almost laughable how quickly she shifted her mood from timid to overtly flirt

    Ethan.The phone in my hand felt heavier than usual as I dialed the number I had paid a hefty sum to. It rang twice before the low voice of the spy came through the line, gruff and slightly distorted from the cheap connection."Speak.""Tell me what you know about my beta," I said, my voice cold and authoritative, the words leaving my mouth with an edge that had been honed from years of leadership and power.There was a long pause before the spy spoke again. "Your beta… he’s been busy, Ethan. Very busy."My mind immediately went on high alert. I leaned forward in my chair, gripping the phone tighter as if it could anchor me to reality. "Busy with what?""He’s been spotted frequently meeting with rogues," the spy continued. "More than usual. I’ve seen him outside the borders, near the perimeter. And I don’t believe it’s by chance. He's likely involved in the attacks on your borders, or at least connected to those who are."I swallowed hard, every word sinking into my gut like a stone.

    Ethan.I stood in the hallway, hidden by the corners, my eyes locked on the scene unfolding in front of me. Kaiser’s laugh echoed through the air, sharp and insistent. His hand was resting casually on Aurora’s shoulder, a touch that made something inside me burn, a fire that I couldn’t suppress. I gritted my teeth, clenching my fists at my sides. He was leaning in too close to her, speaking in a tone too soft, too intimate. My wolf growled, a low rumble deep in my chest, a sound that I was sure only I could hear, but it was there. Loud and angry, echoing in the very marrow of my bones.I could barely breathe.My eyes narrowed as I watched them. It wasn’t just his presence that irked me—it was the way he moved around her, the way she seemed to lean into him, as if she belonged there. She didn’t. She shouldn’t. I knew she shouldn’t, but the jealousy gnawed at me like a wound that wouldn’t heal. My wolf was agitated too, pacing restlessly inside me. We both knew this was wrong.“Just go

    Aurora.I was exhausted. Another sleepless night behind me. My insomnia was only getting worse.I waved at Kaiser with a bright smile, though a flicker of guilt passed through me. I hadn’t thought about him once since arriving in The palace. That was strange, now that I realized it. For the past few months, Kaiser had been my favorite person by far. We’d had so much fun—attending parties, clubs, horse races, and football competitions. Everyone said we were perfectly suited.I’d always assumed he would propose someday—and that I’d accept. I was graduating fashion school next year, after all. Becoming a single parents wasn't bad, but then kaiser would make such a great dad for Ama, and I doubted I’d find a more appropriate match than Kaiser. My parents had never stated it outright, but I’d grown up knowing the man I married would need to have the right qualifications: wealth, status, charm. And, of course, I expected to fall in love with him. For a time, I thought I had. Or something cl

    Kaiser.I paced the room—from the double French doors that overlooked the wrought-iron balcony to the canopied bed with its thick, velvet drapes. Still clenched in my fist was the crumpled bank draft.“Brat.”I couldn’t remember the last time I’d been this furious. I was practically fantasizing about wringing Aurora's lovely neck.what was she thinking when she went to stay with the king? this was the main reason I hated women. Now she's only made my job harder. Does she think she was going to escape me? I actually smiled. She had another thing coming.Sure, I had business to take care of, and yes, I planned to leave town—but i have to make sure she doesn't get back with him. I’d have to come up with the perfect way to drag her out of there.I unfolded the draft again. At first, I’d been mad as hell when she told him her plans. Mad and, yeah, disappointed. I’d assumed she was trying to push me off, to make her point—that I wasn’t good enough, that I was just some cheap thrill she coul
