Elara’s POVFor a moment, he just stood there, his gaze fixed on me like I was some mystery he couldn’t quite solve. There was no warmth, but there was no coldness either—just that unnerving stillness, like he was calculating something only he understood.I searched his face for any sign of what he was thinking. Maybe an explanation. Maybe… anything.But when he finally spoke, it wasn’t what I expected.“Get well soon, Elara.”That was it.No answers, no hint that he’d been checking in on me, no mention of what Milo had said about things not being stable. Just… a polite, detached wish for my recovery.I blinked, letting the silence stretch far too long. “That’s all?”His jaw tensed, but he didn’t look away. There was something unreadable in his eyes, like maybe he wanted to say more but had decided against it.“That’s all,” he said finally, voice low but firm.And then he turned.“Wait—” The word left my mouth before I could stop it.He paused with his back to me, his broad shoulders

Liora’s POVFreedom tasted like rain after a long drought. The cold stone walls of the dungeon had pressed in on me for days, suffocating me in dampness and the stench of silver chains. Now, with sunlight spilling over my skin as I stepped outside, I swore the air felt different—sharper, cleaner, as if the world itself was welcoming me back.But I wasn’t foolish enough to think my release was purely mercy.No—Kael was playing a game.I could see it in his eyes when I taunted him about our mating ceremony—the way his jaw locked, his gaze a perfect blend of disgust and reluctant attention. He thought he could keep me at a distance, sever whatever fragile bond tied us together.He was wrong.Nika walked quietly beside me, her steps deliberate, her head slightly bowed as though she were nothing more than my shadow—but I knew better. That was what made her dangerous. Everyone underestimated Nika. Even Kael. Especially Kael.The moment we rounded the corner and his presence was out of sight

Elara’s POV“Yeah… Jasmine.”The way he said it—calm, almost unaware—made the world tilt under my feet. My ears started ringing, drowning out the gentle rustle of leaves and the chirping of the sparrows that had filled the garden only seconds ago.Jasmine.It wasn’t just a name. It was her.I froze in place, staring at him as though the very air between us had thickened into something unbreathable. My voice scraped its way out of my throat, thin and broken.“What… did you just say?”Dr. Storm blinked at me, clearly confused by my reaction. “I said Jasmine. Why?”A shiver ran through me, and it had nothing to do with the chilly breeze brushing past. My hands trembled slightly, so I shoved them into the pocket of my hoodie. “Jasmine…” I repeated under my breath, the syllables tasting like bittersweet ash.That name pulled me back—back to a different time, when the walls around me were colder and the people crueler. Back to the only person who ever snuck me bread under the table when the

Elara’s POVThe echo of Liora’s footsteps still rang in my ears long after she’d disappeared down the hallway. The faint metallic clink of the coins inside that bag was like a cruel reminder, each sound scraping at my nerves. My hands were shaking, but I clenched them into fists until my nails dug into my palms. Pain helped keep the fear from showing on my face.I knew Liora wasn’t bluffing. She never did. And when she said she “collected debts,” it didn’t just mean money.The door creaked open again, and I flinched before I could stop myself. But it was only Mara, slipping inside, her eyes darting between me and the bag still lying on the floor like a poisonous snake.“What happened?” she whispered, though I could see she already guessed.I kicked the bag toward the far corner, as though distance could erase the weight of her visit. “Nothing I can’t handle,” I lied.Mara didn’t believe me. “Elara…”“I said I’ll handle it.” My voice came out sharper than I intended, but my chest felt

Storm’s POVThe moment Kael ended the meeting, I knew something had rattled him. Kael rarely got surprised—he was the kind of Alpha who planned three steps ahead. If someone had managed to slip into his room without his notice, it meant trouble. The dangerous kind.Still, I didn’t ask questions. Kael was secretive by nature. If he wanted me to know, he’d tell me. My job was simple: spread a rumor that he was done with Elara, and make her life uncomfortable in the infirmary.Truthfully, I didn’t like it. I might be a doctor, but I wasn’t blind. Since the day she arrived, Elara had been treated like an outsider. She carried herself like someone used to being on the bottom rung—quiet, reserved—but her eyes told a different story. Strength. One most people overlooked.Kael saw it too, which was why he wanted her tested.The cave door sealed shut behind me as I climbed the stairs. My mind was already shifting to the task. Rumors couldn’t be forced—they had to spread like wildfire, like dis
