Aeliana's POV"They were real people," I said quietly as Mara's stories finally wound down. "Not just monarchs or legends. They were people who loved each other, who loved me, who had flaws and quirks and normal moments between the royal duties.""They were exactly that," Mara agreed. "And when we rescue them, when you finally meet them again, you'll see all of that. They might be changed by what they've endured and might need time to heal. But underneath the trauma, they're still the same people who loved you enough to sacrifice everything to keep you safe.""I won't let them down," I said fiercely. "We're going to get them out of that facility. We're going to bring them home. And then..." I paused, not sure how to finish the thought."Then you'll have time to be a family again," Mara finished gently. "Time to learn who they are now, who you've become. Time to build new memories to replace the ones that were stolen."Dawn was breaking outside the windows, painting the sky in shades of

Caelan's POVThe convoy assembled in the pre-dawn darkness...three vehicles carrying the extraction team, support personnel, and enough equipment to handle multiple contingencies. We'd kept the departure quiet, but I could feel the pack's attention through the pack bonds and connections, everyone is aware that their Alpha and Luna were heading outside the territory.Aeliana stood beside me, her travel pack slung over one shoulder, staring at the vehicles with an expression I couldn't quite read. Through our bond, I can feel her turbulent emotions—determination mixed with fear, hope tangled with dread."Second thoughts?" I asked quietly."About a hundred of them," she admitted. "But none strong enough to make me stay behind."Liora approached, her Beta authority evident even in casual clothes. "The final check is complete. All communications equipment are tested and functional. Medical supplies are also triple-checked. The weapons are secured and the ammunition accounted for. The suppo

Aeliana's POVThe first full day in Clearwater territory was a carefully orchestrated balance between maintaining our cover and preparing for the mission. In the morning, I worked with Sienna in a visible training area, demonstrating the Entity control techniques while Clearwater pack members watched from a respectful distance."Focus on the sensation of the Entity's presence," I instructed, watching as Sienna's eyes flickered with otherworldly light. "Don't try to force it into submission. Think of it more as... a conversation. A partnership.""It feels like holding lightning," Sienna said through gritted teeth, her hands glowing with silvery energy. "Like if I lose concentration for even a second, it'll explode out of me.""That's normal at this stage. The Entity is still learning your limits, and you're still learning its nature." I demonstrated, letting my own Entity power manifest in controlled waves. "See how I'm not fighting it? I'm guiding it, suggesting rather than demanding.

Aeliana's POV "Unknown," I said. "The facility went into full emergency response while I was observing. I wasn't detected—this was something internal that triggered the alert." "Could be related to the increased personnel we saw this morning," Mara said thoughtfully. "If they brought in reinforcements or specialists, something might have gone wrong with whatever operation they were conducting." "Or it could be the King and Queen," Marcus Ironwood said quietly. "If their condition deteriorated suddenly, if they became unstable or attempted something desperate..." The unspoken implication hung in the air—that my parents might be dying right now, or have already died, while we sat here theorizing. "We need current intelligence," Aldric said. "Real-time information about what's happening inside that facility. Sienna, can your scouts get close enough to overhear anything?" "Possibly, but it's risky," Sienna replied. "If they're in full alert mode, they'll be watching the perim

Aeliana's POVThe scream cut through me like a blade. I didn't know how I recognized it—the suppression spell should have stolen that from me, but somewhere deep in my soul, I knew that voice.My mother was dying."Move," Aldric commanded, and we plunged into the facility.The interior was chaos. Emergency lighting cast everything in blood-red shadows. Alarms wailed at different pitches, creating a chaotic sound of warning. Guards rushed past us in the corridors, too focused on whatever crisis was unfolding deeper in the facility to properly register our presence.We exploited their distraction ruthlessly."Left corridor," Mara directed, her knowledge of the facility layout guiding us through the maze. "This leads to the service stairs. We avoid the main lifts—they'll be locked down or monitored."The facility was larger than I'd imagined from the external buildings. We moved through co
