They say the mate bond is sacred—an unbreakable thread spun by the Moon Goddess herself. But they never talk about what happens when that thread feels like a noose.I stood by the window of the Alpha’s estate, staring at the forest beyond the gates. Trees swayed like they were trying to whisper secrets I’d long forgotten how to hear. My wolf stirred, weak and buried so deep inside me she barely made a sound. She used to howl at the moon with fire in her lungs. Now, she was silent.Just like me.“Elara.” His voice snapped through the quiet like a whip.I flinched. My spine straightened instinctively, my hands clasping tighter in front of me. Damon didn’t like when I looked small. He said it made him look weak.I turned. “Yes, Alpha?”He hated when I called him that too, but it was better than saying his name. Names carried meaning, and I refused to give him that power.His icy eyes flicked over me like he was assessing livestock, not his so-called mate. “The council dinner is tomorrow

The silence after the guard’s announcement was louder than a roar.Damon’s smile never wavered. But I saw the way his fingers curled slightly, the tick in his jaw, the faint tension that vibrated through the air around him like the storm before lightning strikes.He wasn’t just suspicious. He was planning something.“Where exactly was the body found?” Kael asked, stepping forward.Damon’s eyes flicked to him. “Funny you care. That’s pack land, not yours.”Kael didn’t back down. “We both know borders don’t matter when something unnatural’s killing wolves.”For once, I agreed with him.“Enough,” Damon snapped, turning to me. “Elara. Come with me. Now.”The command in his voice was Alpha-deep, tugging at the bond like a leash. I felt it try to root me to the floor, to pull my feet toward him.But something had changed in me. Something that had woken when I shifted. When I remembered what it felt like to have a choice.I didn’t move.“I said—” Damon took a step toward me, but Kael stepped

The wire bit into my ankle, cutting deep. Blood trickled down as I dangled upside down like a rabbit caught in a hunter’s trap.Damon stepped into the moonlight, that calm, predatory smile stretched across his face.“You’ve always underestimated me,” he said, crouching beside me like he had all the time in the world. “That’s your first mistake.”“I should’ve killed you when I had the chance,” I hissed.His laugh was low and unbothered. “Maybe. But you didn’t. And now here we are.”The clearing around us was dead silent, as if even the forest refused to bear witness to what came next. Damon reached into his coat and pulled out a blade—curved, obsidian black, humming with faint energy.“Do you know what this is?”I didn’t answer.“Ancient werewolf iron. Soaked in the blood of an Alpha god.” He raised the blade to my throat, letting it graze my skin. “It’s meant to subdue power like yours. The Luna Star can’t be allowed to run wild, after all.”I swallowed hard, refusing to let him see t

The silver dart hissed as it lodged deep into Kael’s chest, and he crumpled without a sound. “No!” I screamed, rushing forward—but too late. His body hit the ground hard, limp and still. I dropped beside him, shaking his shoulders, trying to wake him. His skin was already turning pale, the silver working fast through his veins. The scent of wolfsbane clung to the air, sharp and metallic, lacing through the smoke like a warning. “Kael,” I whispered, voice cracking. “Don’t you dare leave me.” Behind us, Damon’s laugh echoed like the sound of a gun cocking. “Well, well,” he drawled from the shadows. “He came for you. How… noble.” I didn’t even look at him. My hands were pressed over Kael’s wound, shaking with rage and panic. His pulse was faint. His breathing shallow. Too shallow. “Come on, Kael,” I whispered fiercely. “You’re not allowed to die. Not here. Not like this.” I could feel the bond between us still sparking—frayed, but unbroken. That gave me hope. I focused on that th

I don’t remember hitting the ground. One second, Kael was standing, breathing my name into the darkness. The next, that dart sank into his chest, and he crumpled like a puppet with its strings cut. “KAEL!” I screamed, running to him. My ankle throbbed with every step, but adrenaline turned pain to static. I fell to my knees beside him just as his eyes began to glaze, silver liquid bubbling from the dart wound like venom. “Don’t move,” I whispered, hands trembling as I cupped his face. “Please, Kael, don’t leave me now.” His lips parted. A breath. Faint, but still there. He was alive—but barely. “Step away from him, Luna.” Damon’s voice echoed from behind me, colder than the stone floor beneath my knees. I turned slowly. He stood at the corridor’s entrance, blood running from his temple, his eyes glowing like hellfire. Behind him, shadows crept like living things—slithering, hissing, whispering spells too ancient to name. They were alive in a way shadows shouldn’t b
