The tension hung over the air with quiet dread over the dinner table. I held my breath waiting for when madam Linda would launch her first round of attack.Then she finally did.“Pass the salt, Selene,” my foster mother said breaking the ice. Her voice rang sharp enough to slice through the clatter of plates.It wasn’t really a request. It never was.I reached for the small silver shaker beside me, my fingers brushing the polished wood of the long dining table. The air in the hall was thick, heavy with the scents of roasted venison and herbs, and yet beneath it all there was something sour mockery, waiting to be served.My hand barely touched the salt when her lips curved in that familiar, disdainful smirk. “Ah. Even in simple things, she hesitates.”A ripple of amusement moved through the table. My foster sisters giggled behind their hands, as though we were still children at play, and I was the punchline of their favorite game.I set the salt shaker down gently by her plate, ignorin

The sound of my heels echoed softly down the stone corridor as I made my way toward the great hall. The banners that lined the walls fluttered faintly from the night breeze seeping through narrow windows, but the weight inside my chest was heavier than silk and stone combined. My hands were clasped tightly in front of me, nails pressing into my palms until the crescent moons shape they left stung.Maris walked beside me, radiant as always in a gown of emerald that clung to her figure, her dark hair braided with silver threads. She looked more like a queen than I ever felt like a Luna. She slowed her steps, noticing the stiffness in mine.“You’re grinding your teeth again,” she murmured, amusement coating her words.I exhaled, I didn't even realize I had been grinding my teeth. “I can’t help it. Kael hasn’t spoken more than ten words to me this week, Maris. Ten.” My voice cracked despite my attempt to keep it level. “And those words were… instructions. Orders, like I’m just another sol

When I recovered from the pain I started searching. Searching for what else have been taken away from me. What more do I have that they want?I tore through my chambers like a storm, drawers clattering open, chests overturned, fabrics spilling like wounded pride across the polished floors. My hands trembled as I rifled through one garment after another, praying the necklace would appear, tucked into some fold I’d overlooked.But it didn’t. It was gone. The delicate silver chain Kael had once fastened around my neck the only gift he had ever given me was gone.The more I searched, the more I discovered that it wasn’t just the necklace.A small letter I had written weeks ago lay missing from the carved wooden box where I stored private things. It was a letter I had never sent words I had poured onto parchment late one night in desperation, words that confessed how lonely I had felt, how afraid. My cheeks burned even at the memory of it. Who had it now? Who was reading my bleeding though

I was surrounded. The flames licked higher, searing my skin, yet I could not run. The wolves circled tighter, eyes gleaming with malice under the blood-red moon. “Traitor!” they howled, their voices crashing against me like waves against stone.“I’m not ” I tried to scream, but my throat betrayed me. No sound left my lips.The fire rose, swallowing the forest in a single breath. Heat scorched me, blistering my skin and bone, and still I could not escape. My eyes darted desperately, searching for Kael, for anyone Maris, even. But no one came. Only laughter cut through the inferno, sharp and cruel, a voice I knew but could not name.It echoed as the flames devoured me.I bolted upright, gasping, gripping the sheets as they clinged to me like damp chains. Sweat drenched my skin, and for a moment I swore I could still feel the burn of fire crawling across my body. My chest heaved, lungs clawing for air, but it wasn’t the remnants of smoke I felt it was dread.Then I saw the bond mark.A f

The days that followed blurred together like watercolors in rain. I moved through the motions of being Luna attending council meetings where my voice was ignored, presiding over ceremonies where wolves barely acknowledged my presence, sitting at the high table while conversations flowed around me as though I were invisible.But beneath the surface, something was fracturing.The bond mark pulsed more frequently now, often when I least expected it. During breakfast, it would flicker against my wrist like a dying candle. In the middle of conversations, I would feel that familiar throb, that warning that made my stomach clench with dread. Each pulse felt like a countdown to something I couldn't name.Kael's absences grew longer. Some nights he didn't return at all, and when he did, his scent was layered with unfamiliar traces pine from distant territories, the musk of other wolves, and something else. Something sweeter, more intimate that made my wolf pace restlessly within me.I tried to

The morning of the Bloodfang feast dawned gray and cold, as though the sky itself mourned what was to come. I stood before my mirror, fastening the clasp of a deep crimson gown one of the few that hadn't been mysteriously damaged. The irony wasn't lost on me. Red, the color of blood. How fitting for what I now suspected would be my execution.Three days had passed since I overheard Kael and Maris plotting in his study. Three days of watching them perform their roles with sickening perfection Kael maintaining his cold indifference, Maris playing the devoted friend who worried for my wellbeing. Three days of pretending I knew nothing while fury burned in my veins like poison.The bond mark had fallen silent since that night, as still as death against my wrist. Sometimes I wondered if it had given up trying to warn me, or if whatever was coming was already set in stone."You look beautiful," Maris said as she entered my chambers without knocking. She moved with the confidence of someone

The dungeons beneath the Bloodfang packhouse were carved from living stone, damp and cold as a tomb. Water dripped steadily from somewhere in the darkness, each drop echoing like a countdown to my death. The guards threw me into the deepest cell with unnecessary force, my knees striking the rough floor as the iron door slammed shut behind me.The shackles around my wrists bit into my skin, already leaving angry red marks. I pulled myself up slowly, my body still trembling from the bond's violent severing. The pain in my chest was constant now a hollow ache where Kael's presence had once lived.But beneath the agony, something else stirred. Something that had been building since I overheard their conversation in Kael's study. Not despair, though that threatened to drown me. Not heartbreak, though my soul felt shattered.Rage. Pure and molten and growing stronger with each breath.I pressed my back against the cold stone wall and closed my eyes, letting the fury flow through me like lav

The storm raged with a fury that matched my own. Rain lashed down in sheets, turning the ground to treacherous mud that sucked at my bare feet with each step. Lightning split the sky in jagged veins of silver, illuminating my path through the wilderness beyond Bloodfang borders.Behind me, I could hear the sounds of pursuit howls echoing through the night as Kael's trackers followed my scent. Their voices carried on the wind, harsh and determined. They would not let their escaped prisoner simply vanish into the darkness.But the storm was my ally now. Each crash of thunder masked the sound of my footsteps, each flash of lightning revealed paths through the dense forest that my enemies could not see. The rain washed away my scent trail, leaving the pursuing wolves confused and directionless in the chaos.I ran deeper into the wild lands, my feet finding purchase on slick stones and fallen logs with impossible grace. The power that had freed me from my cell still coursed through my vein

Darius led me through the storm with sure steps, even as blood continued to seep from his wounds. The forest grew denser around us, ancient pines rising like cathedral pillars through the rain-soaked darkness. This was old growth territory, untamed and wild, where wolves had run free for centuries before pack boundaries carved up the land.My bare feet found purchase on the treacherous terrain, the power within me still lending me strength despite my exhaustion. But I could feel it ebbing slowly, like water draining from a broken vessel. Whatever had freed me from my cell was not limitless, and the night's events had taken their toll."How much further?" I asked, my breath misting in the cold air."Not far." Darius's voice was tight with pain, though he tried to hide it. "There's a safe house at the border. We can rest there until dawn."Safe house. The words should have been comforting, but they only reminded me of how precarious my situation truly was. I was entering enemy territory

Dawn came with deceptive gentleness. Pale sunlight filtered through the cabin's small windows, painting everything in soft gold despite the violence that had brought me here. I woke to the sound of voices outside several of them, all unfamiliar, all carrying the unmistakable edge of barely controlled hostility.Through the thin walls, I could make out fragments of heated conversation:" complete madness, Alpha "" enemy in our territory "" should have killed her while she slept "My stomach clenched. Word had spread about my presence, and the Nightshade wolves had come to collect their pound of flesh.I rose quietly, my bare feet silent on the wooden floor as I moved to peer through a gap in the curtain. The main room was empty, but I could see shapes moving outside through the windows. At least six wolves, possibly more, all in human form but radiating the controlled aggression of predators barely held in check.The front door opened, and Darius entered with Mira close behind. His w
