Chapter Seventy One : The Relentless SearchI hurried through the dense forest hastily, my ribcage thumping with anxiety. The giant trees cast great shadows, and the thorns lashed against my garments like trying to stop me. I was desperate to find Cara. Every second passed like an age, and worry about what may be happening to her haunted my very existence.I paused, taking a deep breath, trying to capture her scent. The forest was rich with many scents—wet earth, wildflowers, and the faint musk of animals—but none that led me to Cara. Anger swelled within me. I clenched my fists, holding back the panic building within me. I couldn't afford to lose my composure now.As I went on, the stillness of the forest was broken by the swishing of footsteps behind me. I was about to turn and face whoever dared to pursue, tense muscles at the ready. Relief washed over my body upon seeing Sophia emerging from the bushes, her cheeks flushed and breathing hard."Sophia," I said in a mix of surprise a

Chapter Seventy Three : SafetyDamon’s POVI ran through the forest, my heart pounding so hard it felt like it would break out of my chest. Sophia’s scent was getting stronger, but there was something else mixed with it. Fear. Pain. My wolf growled inside me, furious. If Caleb hurt her, I would make sure he regretted it.The trees blurred past me as I moved faster, my breath sharp. Then I heard it—struggling. A muffled cry.I pushed forward, breaking through the clearing, and my body froze in pure rage.Caleb was on top of Sophia, trying to strip off her clothes.She was fighting, pushing him away, kicking, but he was stronger, pinning her down.Caleb turned when he saw me. Instead of looking scared, he smirked.“I thought you wouldn’t come back for her,” he said, laughing. “Looks like I won.”My fists clenched so hard my nails dug into my palms. My wolf was howling inside me, demanding to rip him apart. But I needed to think. If I rushed in without a plan, Caleb could hurt Sophia bef

Chapter Seventy FiveChapter Seventy-Five: The Truth in the ShadowsCara’s POVThe packhouse felt suffocating. The whispers, the glances, the tension—it was all too much. I needed air, needed to clear my mind.My hand instinctively rested on my stomach. It wasn’t noticeable yet, but I felt it. A life growing inside me, hidden from the world.I slipped out into the cool night, the fresh air filling my lungs. The scent of damp earth and pine trees surrounded me as I walked through the quiet pathways. The moon cast a soft glow, and the distant hoot of an owl was the only sound breaking the silence.I wasn’t sure where I was going. I just needed space.As I walked, my thoughts raced. Liam. Damon. My unborn child. The past. The future. Everything felt tangled, pulling me in different directions.I stopped near a clearing, closing my eyes for a moment. I had come here before, back when things were simpler. Before I learned the truth about my mate bond. Before the lies. Before the pain.But

Chapter Seventy Seven Chapter Seventy-Four: Shattered HeartCara's POVI walked along the dirt path, my fists balled at my sides. The cool night air did nothing to seep into the burning ache in my chest. My mind could not stop reeling from everything that I had learned.Liam had lied to me.The boy who had rescued me all those years back wasn't him. He had lied to me, stolen the necklace, and pretended to be my savior. And I had trusted him.Because of that lie, I stayed with him. I ignored the love I had for Damon. I forced myself to love a man who never deserved it.And now…Damon had moved on with Sophia.My legs were trembling, yet I still walked. I didn't know where I was going exactly—I just needed answers. I needed to see Damon.Would he even talk to me?I reached the packhouse, my heart pounding in my chest. The guards at the door barely looked at me as I passed through. I had been here so many times before, but this time it was different.It felt like I was stepping into som

Chapter Seventy Nine : A Future TogetherDamon's POVThe crisp night breeze swept against me as I entered inside. My head was still a mess from the conversation I'd just shared with Cara, but I shook it off. There was no going back now. Cara had long ago made her decision, and so had I.What mattered most now was Sophia.As I stepped inside the main house, her voice was instant. "Where is he?" Sophia's frustration was evident as she marched from the living room, searching for me.There was a faint smile on my lips as I stood in hiding and observed her for a short while. She was beautiful, her hair untidy from having slept, her feet barefoot and moving lightly against the hardwood floor.When she finally turned and saw me standing in the doorway, her hazel eyes widened."You!" She marched toward me, her face half-relieved, half-angry.I didn't have time to react before she raised her small fist and punched it against my chest. Not hard—hard enough to be noticed."."Where were you?" sh
