Selene POVEventually, exhaustion won.My eyes drifted closed despite the lingering unease. Despite the empty space beside me where Sylvester should have been.Sleep pulled me under.And the dreams returned.But this time, it was different.I wasn’t falling through darkness. Wasn’t drowning in the shadows.I was standing in a forest. Sunlight filtering through the trees. The air smelled clean. Fresh. Free.And someone was walking toward me.A man.He was tall and had broad shoulders. Moving with a predator’s grace.As he got closer, I could make out his features.Dark hair that caught the light. Eyes so green they looked like emeralds. A face that was beautiful and masculine at once. Strong jaw. High cheekbones. A mouth that looked like it smiled easily.He was the most handsome man I’d ever seen.And he was looking at me like I was his entire world.“Selene,” he breathed. My name on his lips sounded like a prayer. Like coming home.“I don’t…” My voice shook. “I don’t know you.”“Yes, you

Sylvester POVI left Selene sleeping in our bed. Cleaned and bandaged and utterly exhausted from our morning activities.I dressed quickly and made my way through the compound. The servants I passed bowed their heads.they didn’t meet my eyes. They'd learned long ago not to look too closely at their Alpha.Especially not after nights like the last one.I walked through the main gates. Past the wards I'd reinforced a dozen times. Out into the territory beyond.And the moment I crossed the threshold, the illusion fell away.The beautiful, pristine world I'd shown Selene…the elegant city, the thriving pack lands, the peaceful forest…none of it was real.This was reality.Devastation stretched as far as I could see.The ground was scorched black in places. Great cracks split the earth like wounds that wouldn't heal. Trees were twisted and dead. The sky had a sickly gray tinge that never quite cleared.All of it…every bit of destruct

Sylvester POVI found her on the balcony.She was sitting on the stone bench, facing the full moon. Her hair…which had grown remarkably long in these past weeks…flowed down her back like a dark river. The moonlight caught the strands, making them shimmer.She looked ethereal. Otherworldly. Like some moon goddess come to earth.She turned at the sound of my footsteps. And smiled.That smile.It was wild and free. She looked extremely happy to see me. It made my heart clench. Made everything I'd done to get her worth it.Because she looked at me like that. Like I was her entire world."There you are," I said softly.I crossed to her. Sat on the bench and pulled her into my lap. She came willingly. "What are you looking at, my dear Selene?" I asked. My fingers found her hair. Began twirling the silky strands around them. The gesture was soothing. Grounding. Reminding me that she was real."Just the moon," she said. Her voice was dreamy. "It's so beautiful tonight.""Not as beautiful as yo

Sylvester POVEvening came too quickly.I spent the afternoon with Selene. Walking through the gardens. Showing her the roses. Watching her smile and laugh and be perfectly, blissfully happy.The drought was working. I think it’s high time I do a little something for the priestess. She has been helpful after all.But now I had other matters to attend to. Pack business that couldn’t be ignored any longer.I left Selene painting in our rooms. And made my way to the council chamber.My advisers were waiting. Five of them. The wolves I’d kept around because they were useful. Competent and very loyal to the park.Or so I’d thought.“Alpha,” they greeted me. Bowing their heads.I took my seat at the head of the table. “Report. What’s the situation with the border patrols?”“Handled, Alpha,” Daniel said. “We’ve reinforced the wards. Nothing’s getting through.”“And the spirit creatures?”

Kael POV The stars around us shifted, forming images of the past.I watched as the Moon Goddess showed me that first lifetime. But not the version I remembered. The real version.I saw myself. I was young and arrogant, blessed with power more than other wolves my age.The Moon Goddess spoke as the memories played. I chose you carefully, Kael. Blessed you with strength beyond your years. Made you an Alpha before you’d earned the title. Do you know why?“No,” I whispered.Because I needed you to protect her. To be strong enough to stand beside her. To help her fulfill her true purpose. The image shifted. Showing Selene she was so young and beautiful. Glowing with power she didn’t yet understand. Selene wasn’t just meant to be your mate. She was meant to be so much more.“What do you mean?”The Moon Goddess gestured. The stars rearranged again. This time showing… something else. A vast network. Threads o
