Chapter 101: Shadows and War CASSIAN’S POVI pushed the broken door wider and stepped into the chamber, the scent of sweat, blood, and raw tension thick in the air. The scene hit me like a slap. Rowan gripped Anya’s wrist with a possessive snarl on his face while Damien lunged forward, his hand outstretched and eyes wild with desperation. Anya stood trapped between them, her body tense and her expression torn. Three hearts pounded in this cramped stone room and all of them beat for her.A slow smirk tugged at my lips as I took in the chaos. “Well, looks like we have a full party.”Rowan’s head snapped toward me first, his wolf flashing bright in his eyes. “Cassian. This does not concern you. You need to leave.”Damien straightened with effort, still unsteady from the curse that had clearly wracked his body moments ago. “She stays with me. Both of you can rot.”Anya yanked her arm from Rowan’s grip and stepped back, her chest rising and falling fast. “Stop it, all of you. This is insa

Chapter 103: Not EnoughROWAN’S POVI paced the edges of the dimly lit chamber while the healer worked over Anya’s still form on the large bed. We had moved her here quickly after she collapsed, the same room where the fight had nearly destroyed everything. My ribs ached from the brawl and my knuckles still bled, but none of that pain came close to the guilt eating me alive inside.She lay so pale against the dark sheets, her chest rising and falling in shallow breaths. I had failed her again. Every time danger closed in, I ended up watching her suffer because I could not protect her properly. My wolf whined deep within me, restless and ashamed.The old healer finally straightened up and wiped her hands on a cloth. She looked at the three of us with a tired expression. “She exhausted her powers too fast. The magic burst out strong but she has not mastered control yet. Every time she pushes like that, it drains her life force directly. She needs rest and she must avoid situations that

Chapter 105: Abandoned ANYA’S POV My eyelids felt heavy as I slowly blinked them open. The soft flicker of lantern light filled the chamber and cast long shadows across the stone walls. My body ached everywhere, especially in my head, where a dull throb still pulsed with every heartbeat. I lay in the large bed with thick blankets pulled up to my chest. As my vision cleared, I noticed two figures in the room with me. Damien sat in a wooden chair near the window with his elbows resting on his knees while Cassian leaned against the far wall, arms folded tightly across his chest. I pushed myself up against the pillows and scanned the room again. My heart picked up speed as I realized the space beside me stood empty. No sign of Rowan anywhere. “Where is Rowan?” I asked, my voice coming out hoarse and weak. Cassian let out a sharp, mocking laugh that echoed off the walls. He shook his head with clear disdain. “That pathetic alpha left you here like a fucking coward. He turned around a

Chapter 107: Broken Alpha ROWAN’S POVThe gates of the pack house loomed ahead like silent judges as I stumbled through them under the moonlight. My legs felt heavy with every step and my chest burned from the long run back. Guards nodded at me but I could not meet their eyes. I kept my head down and pushed through the main doors into the quiet halls. The familiar scent of home should have brought comfort. Instead it twisted the knife deeper because she was not here. I walked straight to our shared quarters and stopped at the doorway. The bed still carried faint traces of her scent mixed with mine. It felt empty and cold. I stepped inside and closed the door behind me with a soft click that sounded too loud in the silence. My hands shook as I leaned against the wall. The weight of what I had done crashed over me all at once. Damien would marry her tonight under the full moon in his territory. With her wearing a gown and standing beside him while I sat here like a fool who had hande

Chapter 109: Shadow’s Fury CASSIAN’S POV I stood on the ridge overlooking Damien’s territory with shadows curling around my fists like living smoke. The full moon hung fat and mocking in the sky while distant drums and cheers drifted up from the courtyard below. They celebrated. That bastard had actually done it. He had married Anya under the moon and bound her with blood while I watched from the shadows like a fool who had hesitated at the wrong moment. Rage burned hot through my veins. I slammed my palm against the nearest tree trunk and bark exploded under the impact. How had I let this happen? I should have taken her the moment I stepped into that chamber. Instead I played games and watched two wolves fight over her like idiots. Now she carried his blood in her body and his ring on her finger. The thought made me want to rip the entire forest apart. “Damn it all,” I growled into the night. My voice echoed off the rocks and faded into the trees. I had underestimated Damien’s d
