ElaraThe halls of Kael’s stronghold felt colder than usual.Maybe it was me. Maybe it was the way my skin prickled with unease, the way the whispers seemed to follow me no matter where I went.I pulled my cloak tighter around my shoulders as I made my way through the winding corridors, my steps silent on the stone floor. I wasn’t supposed to be out of my room yet — Kael had ordered me to rest — but lying still in that bed had been impossible.Every time I closed my eyes, Garrick’s face flashed behind my eyelids. His hands on my skin. His voice, low and taunting, echoing in my ears.“If you’re going to be a breeder for an Alpha, you’ll be mine, not his.”I shivered.Kael had saved me, pulled me from Garrick’s clutches and carried me back here, his wolf racing through the night with a fury I’d never seen before. But now, in the quiet aftermath, I couldn’t stop the questions gnawing at me.Why had Garrick given me to Kael at all, if he truly wanted me? Why had he made that deal in the f

ElaraI was still trembling when I left the corridor, Kael’s deep, commanding voice echoing in my head. I hadn’t been close enough to hear his exact words, but there was no mistaking the sharp edge of anger that rolled through the halls like a gathering storm.Something was wrong.Kael had returned from the border with that same dark look in his eyes he’d worn after rescuing me from Garrick. It was a look that spoke of bloodshed and violence barely leashed beneath the surface.I wrapped my arms around myself as I hurried down the hall, wanting nothing more than to reach the safety of my room and shut the door behind me. There, at least, I could breathe and pretend for a little while that my life hadn’t been turned upside down.But as I rounded the corner toward the corridor where my room was, a figure stepped directly into my path.“Stop right there,” a female voice snapped.I froze, my heart jumping into my throat. A tall, broad-shouldered woman stood in front of me, her dark hair pu

ElaraI barely slept.Every time I closed my eyes, I saw Kael’s face — dark and fierce and far too close.The heat of his mouth on mine burned through me, leaving me flushed and trembling all over again.And his words… gods, his words echoed louder than my racing thoughts.“You are here to give me an heir, Elara. Nothing more.”He’d said it so coldly, like a final wall slammed between us. But no matter how many times I repeated it to myself, my body betrayed me.When I touched my lips, I could still feel the raw, bruised sensation of his kiss.I tossed and turned until the first pale light of dawn slipped through the curtains. Sleep wouldn’t come, and my stomach was in knots, a tight mix of anxiety and hunger. I couldn’t stay in this room any longer, surrounded by the heavy scent of him and the memory of what almost happened last night.I needed air.I needed to do something — anything — to distract myself.⸻When I slipped into the hall, the stronghold was already stirring. Warriors

ElaraThe garden was quieter than I’d ever heard it before.The air smelled faintly of earth and early morning dew, the scent carried on a soft breeze that stirred the leaves above me. Sunlight streamed down in thin golden ribbons, dappling the stone path at my feet. It should have been peaceful, this little tucked-away corner of Kael’s fortress, but my heart wouldn’t settle.I wandered deeper into the garden until I found a small stone bench half-hidden by climbing vines. Beyond it lay a shallow pond, its surface smooth and still, reflecting the sky like polished glass. I sank onto the bench, folding my hands in my lap as I stared at the water.The reflection that looked back at me didn’t feel like me anymore.The girl who’d arrived here was small, meek, invisible. A wolfless omega who was used to being ignored unless someone needed a target for their cruelty.Now… now my reflection showed someone I didn’t recognize.I was wearing fine clothes instead of threadbare rags. My skin was

ElaraThe walls of Kael’s chambers felt smaller this morning.I paced near the window, watching the courtyard below as warriors moved in sharp, efficient lines. It wasn’t like before, when training had seemed almost routine. Now there was a restless, dangerous edge to their movements — like arrows held taut on bowstrings, ready to snap.Something had shifted since yesterday.Kael hadn’t explained it, of course. He rarely explained anything. But I wasn’t blind, and I wasn’t deaf. The entire fortress was humming with tension, and it made my skin itch like an ill-fitting garment.I pressed my palm against the cool glass and swallowed hard.It had been only a few days since Garrick had tried to take me, and still my heart jolted at the memory. His hand on my wrist, his voice curling like smoke in my ear: “If you’re going to be a breeder for an Alpha, you’ll be mine.”A shiver wracked my spine. Even now, safely inside Kael’s walls, I couldn’t shake that moment. If Kael hadn’t come for me…
