Chapter Twenty-One

Derek’s POVRain slammed against the windows of my study like the gods themselves were furious.I stared at the storm, glass of scotch in hand, the burn in my throat no match for the one in my chest.Susana.The name alone twisted a blade inside me.Gone.Dead.Buried beneath layers of betrayal, silence, and a lie I told too many times to count It was for the good of the pack.I clenched the glass harder. “If it was the right thing why does it still feel like hell?”The room answered with silence.Her memory lingered. In every corner. Every creak of the floorboards. In the damn scent of old lavender she used to wear that still haunted the hallways.Fiona was my Luna now. My wife. My future. And yet…Why do I still see Susana when I close my eyes?She’d given me everything, deals, loyalty, power. Four years of strategy, sacrifice, and brilliance. She made Dark Moon what it is. No. What it was.Now the empire was falling apart.Investors ghosting. Alliances crumbling. The whispers? The

Twenty-Two

Derek’s POVFiona stood behind the curtain, eavesdropping on the meeting with the elders. I could feel her hatred brewing from where I sat.“Sussanna this, Susana that. Such a weak clan!”, she had once whispered to me with disgust. Even now, even when the woman was dead, the whole clan couldn’t just move past it.The silence after Elder Marcus’s question suffocated the room.“She’s dead. We’re surviving,” I said, trying to keep my voice level. And for a moment, I thought I saw Fiona blink in surprise. Maybe she thought she was finally making me into the Alpha I was supposed to be.“Barely,” Marcus shot back. “Or have you not noticed the decay spreading through this pack? Wake up from your pretence, Alpha! Trade has collapsed. Warriors are leaving. We’ve been unable to acquire any new clans for months and our allies are beginning to question our strength. Just yesterday, the Bloodpack threatened to withdraw their alliance. If they do, we’ll be cut off from the stream! And then another

Twenty-Three

Susanna’s PovIt’s been two days since the kiss.Two days of pretending I was fine. Two days of lying to myself and to everyone else. But the truth? I haven’t been the same since. That kiss, soft, fiery, reckless, has haunted me like a ghost. Every time I close my eyes, it’s there, waiting to swallow me whole.I’ve had to act like it didn’t matter. Smile when necessary. Avoid his gaze. Bury the memory under routine. But it was all an act.Just a kiss, right? A heated moment. Nothing more. We were caught in adrenaline, tension, and… proximity. That’s all.At least, that’s what I told myself.But if it truly meant nothing, why did it feel like my entire world tilted when his lips touched mine?Still trapped in my spiral of thoughts, the door creaked open. My heart did a sharp flip before I could steady it.“Susanna,” he said softly.His voice sent a shiver straight down my spine. I looked up, forcing my face into a calm I didn’t feel.“Good morning, Sebastian,” I replied, the words flat

Chapter Twenty-Four

Susanna’s povI peeked around the corner like a thief, holding my breath. Fiona hadn’t seen me yet. But Ivanka had already noticed the way my body went still, my fingers clutching the fabric rack like it was a shield.She leaned in and whispered, “Anna… what’s wrong?”“I’m fine,” I muttered too quickly, eyes still locked on Fiona across the store. “Nothing.”Ivanka didn’t buy it for a second. Her gaze sharpened.“Is it the woman who just walked in?” she asked.I hesitated, then sighed. “I… I just don’t want her to see me.”Ivanka raised a brow and crossed her arms with a smirk. “Well, then let’s make sure she doesn’t.”But even as she said it, something darkly delicious bloomed in my chest. I suddenly didn’t want to run or hide anymore. A twisted idea curled at the edges of my thoughts like

Chapter Twenty-Five

Fiona’s POVIt was supposed to be a normal afternoon. A desperate escape, really. I needed a break from the suffocating grandeur of the palace, from Derek’s thunderous silences that echoed louder than any shout, from the insidious whispers behind closed doors that picked at my sanity like vultures. So, I came to the mall, cloaked in a designer disguise, just to clear my head. And maybe, just maybe, to remind myself that I was still Luna. Still envied. Still in control.I drifted through the women’s section, my fingers trailing over racks of pristine white gowns, silk, lace, satin each one a perfect, untouched dream. Distraction. That’s all I craved a momentary reprieve from the unease that had become my constant companion. But then… I felt it. The shift. A sudden, unnatural drop in temperature, as if a freezer door had swung open in the middle of a warm room. A stillness in the air, so profound it felt like the world had simply stopped br

Chapter Twenty-Six

Sebastian’s POVThe knock on the door came like a slap to reality.I rose and opened it, already irritated. Thorne stood at attention, his usual calm tinged with urgency.“Sir,” he said, bowing slightly, “the Elders are here. They’re waiting for you in the meeting chamber.”I stared at him, my jaw tightening. “At this time of night?” I scoffed. “What could possibly be so important? Do these old men think being retired gives them the right to micromanage my life like bored grandparents?”Thorne wisely said nothing.I glanced back into the room. Susanna was watching me, a faint crease between her brows. Her expression held quiet curiosity, maybe even concern. We’d just been laughing not five minutes ago. That rare moment of peace with her was something I didn’t want to let go of.“Excuse me, Anna,” I said, sighing as I turned to leave. “Apparently the kingdom might crumble without me tonight.”She grinned lazily. “You are excused by order of the Lachan King,” she teased, eyes twinklin

Chapter Twenty-Seven

I woke before the sun touched the horizon, a soft glow beginning to spill across the walls of the room. The world outside was still and hushed, the only sound in the room the steady rhythm of Sebastian’s breathing beside me.For a moment, I just lay there, watching him.His face was softer in sleep. The harsh lines carved by duty and decisions were gone, replaced by something almost… boyish. Peaceful.My heart squeezed, just a little.But I couldn’t stay in bed.I needed to head down to the forest and start some basic work out before Sebastian woke up to join me.Careful not to wake Sebastian, I slipped out of bed and padded across the cold floor. I pulled on a fitted black training suit from the wardrobe and tied my hair into a messy bun. My movements were quiet, but purposeful. Focused.I stepped out into the crisp morning air. The forest was practically empty except for the sound of birds. I rolle

Chapter Twenty-Eight

Sebastian’s POVI watched her walk away from me rigid, silent, the morning sun weaving fire through her hair. And with each step she took, it felt like she was walking further out of my reach.I’d faced wars.But nothing… nothing had ever made me feel as small, as gutted, as watching Susanna walk away from me without looking back.For the first time in a very long time, I felt powerless.Not as a warrior.Not as an Alpha.Not even as a King.But as a man who had just hurt the one woman he swore to protect. The woman who was slowly stitching herself back together. The forest was quiet around me, but the silence wasn’t peaceful. It pressed in around me like a cage. Every gust of wind, every rustle of leaves, seemed to whisper the same thing over and over again.You failed her.I ran a hand over my face, dragging in a breath that didn’t quite make it to my lungs.You should’ve told her.You should’ve held her hand. Explained.But instead, I’d stood in front of the Elders and declared ou

Chapter Twenty-Nine

Susana’s pov I paused at the doorway, my fingers still brushing the cool, ornate frame. My back was to him, but I could feel his gaze, a phantom touch dragging across my spine. It felt heavy, aching, thick with a thousand things left unspoken. Guilt, perhaps?I closed my eyes, letting the silence expand, filling the room until it pressed against my eardrums. It spoke louder than any accusation, any confession, either of us could have uttered.He’d made a mistake. One that had sliced a jagged wound deep within me. But then again, hadn’t we all, in our own twisted ways, bled each other dry? The truth was, I was tired of bleeding. Tired of the constant ache, the phantom pains of betrayal.Slowly, almost reluctantly, I turned. Just enough to glance over my shoulder. He hadn’t moved. Still slumped in that chair, the half empty glass glinting beside him, a silent testament to his solace.His eyes, though, were fixed on me, a desperate plea swimming in their depths.Yes, I was angry.

Chapter Thirty

Sebastian’s POVI was fighting the urge to pull her close, the need pulsing through every inch of me, but my Wolf was stronger. He wasn't patient or rational, he simply wanted her. And before I could stop myself, I gave in.I gently pulled her into my arms. But instead of kissing her, which is exactly what my Wolf wanted, I pressed my nose into her hair and took in her scent of lavender and something uniquely her. I ran my fingers through her curls slowly, reverently.“You’re beautiful, cupcake,” I whispered, the words a low rumble in my chest.She looked up at me, and I caught it, that spark in her eyes. A hint of softness. A blush rising to her cheeks. My heart stuttered. Was she finally opening up to me? Her Wolf still hadn’t surfaced, but the progress was undeniable. A fragile hope bloomed in my chest.I stepped back, not wanting to push too far, not yet. I wouldn’t ruin this delicate moment, this burgeoning trust. My Wolf growled furiously in my head. “You had the chance!
