Chapter 2: Serving the pack The grand marble floors of the Alpha’s mansion stretched out before Cassia in an endless labyrinth of gleaming white, as though mocking her reflection with every drag of the cloth across their surface. The early morning chill seeped through her bones, but she barely noticed it—years of conditioning had taught her to numb herself to cold, to pain, to the ache in her joints as she worked tirelessly. Today, however, was different; an unusual tension lingered in the air, sharpening her senses, reminding her of her place. “Make sure it’s spotless.” An enforcer had barked at her earlier, his voice laced with disdain. “The Beta of the Blackwood Pack arrives today, and the Alpha’s reputation must be upheld.” He sneered, eyes flashing with a dangerous promise. “Don’t mess this up, Cassia.” Cassia’s hands trembled as she scrubbed, the coarse rag scratching against her already-raw skin.

The celebrations had ended, but the peace of the moment felt fragile, as though it could shatter with the slightest breeze.She’d stood there for what felt like hours, watching the embers of the bonfire slowly die, each flicker of flame mirroring the growing unease inside her. She should’ve felt victorious—she had fought hard, outmatched every challenger—but instead, all she felt was exhaustion, an emptiness that refused to fade.Was this it? Was this all I’d ever be?Her chest tightened at the thought. The pack still saw her as an outsider. They’d watched her fight, but it wasn’t enough.
