Selina’s body felt as light as a feather, but her eyelids were unbearably heavy and her head throbbed with pain.She tried to wake up. Again and again she struggled, but her body refused to move and her eyes would not open. There was a light touch on her hand, like a whisper sliding over her skin, yet her consciousness remained trapped.“Selina, please wake up, sweetheart. I need you,” the voice came again, tight with strain and pain.Her soul shuddered as she fought harder against the invisible restraints holding her down.Raven.Raven was calling her. Raven needed her.All she felt was an overwhelming need, so intense it nearly drove her mad, to reach Raven. If she did not, she would lose him.The unseen bonds finally shattered. She was free again. Without wasting a second, Selina did the only thing she could, swimming upward, toward the surface, until the light slowly grew brighter and Raven’s voice became clearer. At the same time, her eyes flew open and she gasped, like someone b

Alpha Thorne summoned Raven to the pack house. There was something they needed to discuss related to the upcoming Alpha King selection. Raven told Selina to head to the university on her own and promised he would be back before dinner.Selina went to Westbrook University and attended all her classes as usual. Afterward, she went to a café near campus with Susan and Evan to celebrate her engagement. She had already told Evan that she was engaged, but she had not mentioned Raven at all. Evan looked curious, so Selina reassured him by saying she would introduce her fiancé at the graduation ceremony. Evan agreed without pressing further.Still, one question kept gnawing at Selina.How would Evan react when he found out her fiancé was none other than Professor Raven?They parted ways after that. Selina walked down the street while texting Raven, asking what he wanted for dinner. The sun was slowly sinking, painting the sky in shades of orange as her attention stayed on her phone screen.A

“No, Father. You don’t understand. You never have. You’ve never understood my pain. I’ve always felt guilty for not being born a son like you wanted. You made me feel like I was nobody. Like I wasn’t capable of protecting my own pack unless I had the strongest Alpha beside me or bore an Alpha-blooded child. You made me feel useless,” Kendall sobbed, wiping her tears away.“I only want what’s best for you,” Varkon said quietly. It was obvious he was struggling to keep his emotions in check as he watched his daughter cry.“But Kendall doesn’t want it. Do you really think you know what’s best for her better than the Moon Goddess does?” Selina said, earning a sharp glare from Varkon.“Of course I know what’s best for her,” Varkon replied. “If she has a strong Alpha at her side, her pack will be stronger. That man will protect her and the pack. What’s wrong with that?”“I don’t want to be with anyone, Father. Can’t you see how much I’m suffering? Can’t you see how humiliating it is for me

Alpha Varkon’s audacity in kidnapping Selina was beyond outrageous. Raven could not stop thinking about what the man had really been planning all this time. What did Varkon want from Selina? The more Raven thought about it, the clearer the answer became.He knew Selina well. She had told him what happened, but never in detail. She never explained how Varkon threatened her or what he used against her. Raven was certain something far darker lay beneath it all, and he decided to find out for himself.Raven’s car screeched to a stop in front of Varkon’s house. Without hesitation, he strode to the front door and slammed his fist against it again and again. The door nearly came off its hinges before it finally swung open.Raven’s gaze locked with Alpha Varkon’s. He stepped inside without waiting for permission, forcing the older man back several steps.Raven was taller and broader, his body looming over Varkon in an unmistakable display of dominance. He let his alpha aura pour out freely, c

“Relax, Susan. It’s not even that scary,” Selina said, trying to calm her down. “Most people hope they’ll meet their mate on their eighteenth birthday, but your case is different. If you’ve known from the start that the chances are slim, then what’s there to worry about? Just take it easy.”Susan slowly shook her head, her expression still tight. “That’s not the only thing, Selina. My mom invited a bunch of single men to this party because she wants me to match with one of them. I don’t get it. Do I really need a man by my side just to be acknowledged in this world, when I can be independent and strong on my own?” Her voice trembled.Selina looked at her, clearly unsure how to respond.“I told you about my father, right?” Susan continued. “He married my mom, then walked away after getting her pregnant. She raised me alone. I don’t believe in mate bonds, and I don’t believe in men. You know that. Raven is a good man, and I’m happy for you. But that doesn’t mean all men are good, or tha
