Ava's POV"I... I can't... go... on any... longer."I collapsed as I tripped over a twig, my body a massive lump of flesh rolling down through the thick vegetation until I was, gratefully, stopped by a tree, effectively knocking the wind out of me.Lyanna was beside me in a second, while Hannah jogged up to us."Ugh," I groaned as I dragged myself off the floor, coughing up a storm."Pretty good, Luna," Hannah said between deep, controlled breaths as she wiped the sweat from her brows. "Now, you just need to work on your foot placing."I glared at her with envy."I get Lyanna, but how are you so good at running when you don't even have a wolf?"She laughed at that."My lack of a wolf only meant I had to work twice as hard as everyone else in order not to fall behind. Running was my forte. Even my siblings with their wolves barely manage to beat me."I glared at her some more, then sighed."I feel like I'm just torturing myself for no reason.""Beauty is pain, Luna," Hannah smiled. "If

Dravin's POV After my discussion with Soren, I made my way to my room with a lot on my mind.There was the issue of losing one of my best soldiers to Elora, but it wasn't much of a problem. Even if she might dislike me, Elora doesn't seem like the type to lethally rebel, and even if she tries to, Lyanna isn't stupid enough to allow it.Crimson Veil's daughter was another mystery I would like to unravel in my own time, but she seems pretty much harmless by now. At least for now, I can afford to let her be.The most pressing issue is the impending war.As I undressed and strolled to the bathroom, I couldn't shake the feeling that things were going to get really bad at the rate things were going.It's been more than a century since my last rampage, so most of these present Alphas only know of me by word of mouth. Only a few of them, like old Alfred, who had been a mere child at the time, were present to witness my anger. Even he was too young to exactly grasp the scale of my terror.Eve

Dravin's POVThe words tasted bitter in my mouth.I cannot pinpoint the exact reason why the words were hard to say, but they were.It could be due to the fact that I was saying these words to Elora.Not Irikah—Elora.Saying those words was quite distasteful to say to this woman, as I don't believe I have done her any wrong.On the other hand, I was ashamed that all I had to say to Irikah, if this woman was in fact Irikah, was sorry.The words sounded sour in my mouth.Elora, on the other hand, was quite dumbfounded."What's the meaning of this?" she asked as she glared at me cautiously.Those fucking blue eyes."You heard me," I replied calmly, doing my best to quell guilt as I stared into those eyes."What are you sorry for?" she asked, her glare still fixed on me."Is it that hard to accept an apology?" I asked, keeping my voice level as annoyance crept through me.This was embarrassing.This wasn't Irikah.This fat—"I can't accept an apology I do not know what it is for," she rep

Kael's POVAs I sat on my throne, I couldn't help but doze off through the meeting. Bickering elders, a nagging Luna, and a headache are a terrible combination.A fact I had come to painfully realize.Listening to grown men argue, I couldn't help but feel disgusted.What even is the need for elders if they can't maintain the dignity they portray?Their decisions are whack, and so they always fight over conflicting opinions. I've barely ever had a meeting that didn't devolve into a fierce argument.Eager to escape this insanity, I scanned the table in search of an out—a reason to end this sorry excuse for a meeting—and found none.My eyes did meet with Salem's eyes.The Elder said nothing to the bickering men. In fact, he had stopped contributing to these meetings since he learned of Ava's death. He only attended out of formality.Today, his eyes were on me as always, observing me as a hint of a smile played on his lips.He was enjoying my misery.The thought of that irked me beyond an

Ava's POV The night I've been dreading came as quickly as I thought it would. The day passed almost mechanically. Lyanna and Hannah acted like they never knew I had any discussion with the Alpha and never asked me about it. Instead, they kept to themselves, took care of their jobs, and went on with the day like it was every regular day. I could tell Hannah wanted to know, but Lyanna was as stoic as always. When I told them I was invited to the Alpha's room tonight, Hannah stared at me with a pressing question in her eyes, but I ignored her. Once again, Lyanna was impassive about it. She simply nodded and went along with her chores, making sure to pick out an appropriate outfit for my visit to the Alpha's room. Soon, it came. Once I was dressed in my nightgown—and of course, Hannah insisted I did some light makeup—I strolled over to Dravin's room, doing my best to act like it was normal and I wasn't a little jittery about being alone with that monster. The door opened before
