Theron's POVWhen I stepped into the common room much later, Orion was already standing there, arms folded.I walked past him."Theron," he called, stopping me in my tracks"Did something happen?" he asked.He was talking to me?This was the most words he'd said to me in a year. Ever since he returned, our exchanges had been nothing more than clipped nods and avoided eye contact."You've returned," I had said then."Yes," he had replied.And just like that, silence and awkward tension had claimed the air between us again, along with everything unspoken.So this now... this had to be about her.That tryout.Of course. She probably ran to him whining."You shouldn't let nobodies into the Epicenter," I muttered, brushing past him. "You know better."We needed to talk. All of us. The Heirs.But none of us were ready.Not for that conversation.Not about what had happened.What led to his exile.Outside, everything was smiles and masks.But underneath?It was getting hot once more.I should

Theron's POVSlam.The next punch crashed into my face with such force that stars exploded behind my eyes. Pain seared through my skull. My legs buckled beneath me, but I forced myself to stay upright. I couldn't afford to fall again. Not in front of him.No matter how hard I trained, no matter how many bruises I collected or how many nights I spent pushing my body to its limits, defeating him always felt just out of reach. He wasn't just stronger. He was relentless. Precise. Unforgiving.I lunged forward with everything I had, striking out with speed that should have landed. But he was faster. Effortless. He sidestepped my attack like it was nothing, spun, and drove his elbow into my back. The breath was knocked out of me as I hit the ground with a heavy thud.Combat drills or whatever. He was better. Far better."There are still too many flaws in you," he said, voice calm but cold. "You have to push yourself past pain. Past failure. Teach your body to heal like a pure-blooded Lycan.

Chapter 15AuroraI finally reached my dorm much later, after classes and dinner. Every step up the staircase felt heavier than the last; for some reason, the elevators were out of service.At the door of my room, I paused.Something felt off. Wrong.The hairs on my neck stood up as I pushed the door open.Inside, the room was a mess. My things were scattered, overturned, tossed aside without care. Matrons moved briskly, rifling through drawers, upending clothes, searching for something."Hey!" I called out, frozen in the doorway. My voice sounded more confused than angry.What were they looking for?They didn't answer. They didn't even stop.Before I could demand an explanation, Mirabelle appeared behind me, her heels clicking softly against the floor."Oh no. It's happening again," she said under her breath, almost as if she weren't surprised."Come on." She gently took my arm and led me away from the chaos."You didn't bring anything... odd, did you?" she asked quietly. "Nothing str

Aurora"Aurora Roy, please make your way to the instructor's office immediately."The summons repeated over and over through the PA system.The table fell silent as they all stared at me."I should go now," I said quietly, standing to my feet."Good luck," one of them whispered.As I made my way through the halls, my mind raced with every possible reason.What had I done wrong?Did Orion see my bag and report me? No, he wouldn't do that.Then who? Simone? Had she gone crazy and accused me again?My heart pounded against my ribs like it was trying to escape. I tried to calm my breathing, but my thoughts wouldn't stop.Had I broken a rule without knowing? Was I being expelled like the others?When I reached the front desk outside the instructor's ward, the lady looked up."Miss Aurora?"I nodded, pulse thudding."Door to the left."---I stepped inside slowly."I've never seen anything quite like that from a junior," a voice was saying. "And for a first energy transfer practical?""She'l

TheronMy mate?She could not even shift properly.The realization hit me like a blow to the chest, sharp and suffocating. Real fear crept in, followed closely by dread. This was the nightmare I had prayed would never come to pass, unfolding right in front of me.The scent was hers. There was no denying it. The same faint trace that still clung to the necklace buried deep in my pocket was unmistakable.My mate.A short, bitter laugh slipped past my lips.No.It could not be.Not yet.Not ever, if I had any say in it.I turned away without giving her another look, forcing my feet to move in the opposite direction of the pull that screamed at me to go back. Every instinct demanded I return to her side.I ignored it.Father could never know. My family could never know."There's a student far out, near the border," I muttered when I spotted Orion. "She needs help."I had seen them together before. He would take care of her.A sharp pang of jealousy flared in my chest before I crushed it do
