Day 3VioletOnly seconds had passed, though it felt like minutes. Nate’s hand lifted to her face, still chained, his thumb brushing gently across her cheek.He held it there, just looking at her while the softest smile reached his face. “Come on, say yes,” Kylan breathed, his voice low. I felt my lips curl into a smile, seeing him rooting for them.“I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to match you,” Nate said, smiling. “But I’d be honored to be your mate.”A soft sigh slipped from her lips, her eyes glistening. She turned and faced the king.“I do not consent to all of this.” Her voice was full of joy. “Charges are void. Now unchain him.”Kaelis’s eyes met Kylan’s, and the two smiled at each other. This part was finally over, and she couldn’t have done it any better.“I think it’s time to arrest him,” Kylan said, nudging his head toward the king. The guards didn’t move, but the two royal elders did. One from each side as they made their way up the stairs.The king’s eyes went wide, and

VioletI took a sharp breath as Kylan stood in front of me, his hands on my shoulders. He looked down at me with a sympathetic look on his face, grounding me the way he always did.Yesterday still felt like a blur. The trial, the king getting dragged away in chains…Kayden almost shifting for the first time in years and disappearing with Camille.All of it replaying in my head over and over like a dream I couldn’t wake up from, and the worst thing was that all of it was real. Now we were here, in front of that door that led to the dungeons.I had told Kylan last night that I wanted to see Varius one more time before he would leave later today. I needed to thank him for everything he had done, for believing in me when I didn’t even believe in myself, and for allowing me to find myself.I just had to see him.Tonight was Nate and Kaelis’s ceremony, and tomorrow we would leave for Starlight. We had a long journey ahead.“Okay, I’m ready,” I breathed. It wasn’t Varius whom I feared, but th

VioletA laugh rumbled against my lips as I fumbled with the buttons of Kylan’s shirt. “Slow down, Pup.”But I couldn’t slow down. I was too impatient and way too desperate for that mark. So I kissed him with all I had instead, swallowing whatever else he was about to say. Part of me feared that if I didn’t keep going, he might take it all back.Deep down, I knew things were different this time. I knew it wasn’t just some spur-of-the-moment thing, because he wasn’t like that. He wanted it as much as I did.“I don’t want to slow down,” I breathed against his mouth. Eventually, I just gave up on the buttons and pulled. A chuckle left him as one popped off and flew somewhere across the room. I would have kept going too, ripping every single one off if I had to, but then his hands moved to my cheeks and everything just…stopped.His lips curved into a smile. “Violet?”“Yes?”My cheeks flushed as I stared into those beautiful brown eyes. I hadn’t even noticed my fingers were still tugging at

Violet9 AMI fumbled with the scarf around my neck for what felt like the hundredth time this morning, huffing and puffing as we stood outside, waiting to say our goodbyes to the Bloodrose.At last, Fergus and the pack would finally travel back home today. Though the morning sun was bright and warm against my skin, an occasional breeze forced me to keep the scarf in place.I kept adjusting it, and the more I touched it, the more paranoid I became that everyone could see exactly what I was trying to hide. The mark. Kylan’s mark.“Stop making it so obvious,” Kylan spoke beside me. I scoffed and looked up at him, immediately meeting that stupid smirk on his face, the one that made me want to kiss him and punch him at the same time.He was enjoying all of this a bit too much. I let out a soft grunt and looked ahead again. The courtyard was filled with the pack, servants, and guards. They all moved back and forth, loading luggage while I was trying not to lose my mind.My eyes landed on D

Cecilia let out a small breath, her eyes moving to the scarf again. Yes, she definitely knew.“I’m going to ask you something,” she said calmly. “And I want you to be honest with me.”Kylan chuckled. My throat bobbed. “Okay.”“Did you…” Her eyes squinted. “May I?”I nodded before I could talk myself out of it.Her fingers were gentle as she reached for the silk, pulling it aside just enough to see what was underneath. A soft wince escaped me as she pressed against the fresh mark.I watched her face for any sign of anger or disappointment, but there wasn’t any. Her expression hadn’t changed much.“I knew it would end like this,” she murmured. “After all, Kylan wouldn’t be Kylan if…”She took a breath.“Mom—” Kylan started.“Quiet.” She let the scarf fall back into place but kept her hands on my shoulders. A tender smile spread across her face. “Let me look at my flower.”My throat closed up. Flower…That’s the name she gave me when we first met. Kylan and I had both been absolutely ter
