CANEI made my way to my father's chambers, my mind still preoccupied with thoughts of Ava. I had ordered that they take care of her and alert me if there were any changes in her condition. Despite my desire to be by her side, I knew I had to keep my word to my father and discuss the matters at hand.I knocked on the door and entered, greeting my father with a nod. He sat behind his desk, his expression serious. I took a seat in front of him, my posture authoritative. My father asked about Leah, his eyes piercing. "How is your wife adjusting to being a luna?" he inquired.I hesitated for a moment, unsure of how to answer. Leah was still getting used to her new role, but I knew she wasn't struggling to find her place. "She's doing alright," I replied, trying to be diplomatic. My father's expression was unreadable, but I could sense his scrutiny. I knew he was waiting for me to produce an heir, to secure the future of our pack. “I have been hearing rumours of you being with a new l

LEAHI remembered how I stood frozen in the hallway, my eyes fixed on the scene unfolding before me. The commotion in the palace was palpable, and I couldn't believe what I was seeing. Ava, that insignificant little wolf, was lying on the floor, and for a moment, I thought she was dead. A surge of satisfaction coursed through my veins, but it was short-lived.The physician's voice cut through the chaos, confirming that Ava was alive. My eyes widened in shock as I processed the news. How could she have survived? And then, another bombshell, Ava had killed the men who had been sent to take her out. I felt like I'd been punched in the gut.I couldn't wrap my head around it. Those men were trained for combat, the best of the best. How could Ava, a weak and fragile wolf, take them down? It didn't add up. Unless...unless she wasn't as weak as I thought. The more I thought about it, the more my anger grew. Who was this Ava, and how dare she defy me like this? I would make sure she paid

AVAI lay in bed, my body still weak from the attack. My recovery seemed to be slow, but I was grateful to be alive. Sophia had been a godsend, bringing me clothes and other things I needed. She was always chatting and laughing, trying to lift my spirits.But despite her efforts, I couldn't shake off the feeling of being trapped. Cane had kept guards with me all the time, and while I appreciated his concern, it was suffocating. I felt like a prisoner in my own home.And yet, despite the suffocating feeling, I couldn't help but yearn for Cane's visits. True to his words, he had come to see me every day, his face etched with concern. Whenever he was around, he would take care of me, not letting me lift a finger. I would complain about being bored, needing something to distract me from the monotony of my days.Cane would smile and try to entertain me, telling me stories or reading to me. His presence was a balm to my soul, and I found myself looking forward to his visits more and more.

AVAAs we walked through the trees, the sound of birdsong and gentle lapping of water against the shore grew louder, and I caught my breath as the lake came into view. It was the most beautiful lake I had ever seen, its crystal-clear waters reflecting the sky above like a mirror. Birds flew freely overhead, their songs filling the air, and I felt a sense of peace wash over me.The air seemed different here, magical, as though it was sacred. I breathed deeply, feeling the tranquility of the place seep into my bones. Cane smiled as he watched me take in the view, and I turned to him, my eyes shining with delight."What do you think?" he asked, his voice low and gentle. "How do you find this place?" I hesitated, searching for words to describe the beauty around me. "It's beautiful," I said finally, my voice barely above a whisper. "One of the most beautiful things I've ever seen in my life."Cane's face lit up with a smile, and he reached out to take my hand. "I'm glad you like it,"

LEAHI stood outside the window, my ears pressed against the pane as I listened to Cane and Ava's conversation. They were discussing how to rescue some spies Cane had sent out, spies that were now imprisoned at a rival pack. I felt a surge of surprise, my mind racing with questions. How had this escaped my notice? And why was Cane involving Ava in pack business?I had been lost in thought earlier, pondering the words of the former Alpha. He had warned me about Cane's growing closeness to Ava, and I had dismissed it as mere speculation. But now, as I listened to their conversation, I realized that he had been right. Cane was getting closer to Ava, and it seemed that Ava was becoming more involved in pack affairs.I had followed Cane and Ava, curiosity getting the better of me. I had seen them walking hand in hand, and I had to know what was going on. I had dismissed my maids and followed them, careful not to be seen.As I listened to their conversation, I felt a pang of unease. Cane
