Again, I couldn’t answer her. Guilt settled heavily in my throat.“I understand,” I finally said. “And I’ll restrict Iris. I promise.”“But you still haven’t answered me.” Cassandra lifted her gaze, sharper now—cutting straight through me. “Why did Iris end up in the hospital? What really happened to her?”I went silent for a moment, then exhaled slowly. “She was exhausted because Vania forced her to study advanced potion craft.”“Oh, Moon Goddess…” Cassandra’s voice cracked, trembling on the edge of tears.“But I’m dealing with it,” I said quickly. “I won’t let Vania get away with it again.”Cassandra shook her head violently. “I don’t trust you, Alaric.”The words were soft but devastating. “You know as well as I do—if you push Vania, Iris will always be the ta

Cass’s POVDamn it.The curse echoed only in my mind as the rain poured down in violent sheets, the roaring sound drowning out most of the noise in the hospital lobby. Even so, SilverFang guards remained stationed around the building, watching every soul that moved in and out. The air felt damp, cold, and heavy with the scent of wet earth.I’d already taken a step toward the parking area—my car was waiting there—when Alaric’s deep voice halted me.“I’ll take you home.”“I don’t need a ride,” I said without looking at him.“Unfortunately, I need you to accept it.”His tone carried that familiar edge—the one that refused to be argued with. I thought he’d give up after I rejected him twice, but of course he didn’t. Alaric was still Alaric—stubborn, forceful, always twisting things his way.&ldquo

Alaric’s POVThe moment I passed through SilverFang’s main gate, I drove straight to the Pack hospital. Warriors were already stationed around the entrance, on alert, and one of them hurried toward my car as I pulled up beneath the front awning. I stepped out and handed him the keys.“Is Doctor Raymond in his office?” I asked.“He is, Alpha. He’s expecting you.”I nodded and strode quickly through the lobby toward the Pack doctor’s wing. I’d originally planned to return to the mansion and meet Russel, but Raymond had something urgent to discuss about Iris. I wasn’t going to delay that.But just before I turned the corner to Raymond’s office, a soft voice—more like a spoiled whine—cut through the hallway.“Alaric… you took so long. Why didn’t you tell me you were coming? What were you even doing?”Lyra.She pou

Lyra’s PoV“Damn it!” I snapped the moment the door to my recovery room swung shut behind me. I was supposed to be discharged today. Honestly, there was nothing wrong with me—just exhaustion and the little performance my mother staged to drag Alaric’s attention back to me.But still…I hurled a pillow at the wall, then clawed at my own hair in frustration. “What the hell is going on with Alaric?!” My breath came fast and uneven. “He was perfectly fine when we were in WestVale. But now?”I caught myself nibbling at the corner of my thumb, pacing the room with agitation coiling tight in my chest.“No. I can’t let this go. I won’t lose to that woman. She was thrown out of this Pack. There’s no place for her here.”The servant who had been lingering in the room stared at me with fearful eyes.“And Iris—why is she

Lyra’s PoVEiden went silent for a long moment, as if his mind couldn’t process what I’d just said. His eyes stayed locked on me, wide and trembling. His hands twisted together in his lap, his breath unsteady.“L-Luna… you… do you mean I have to—”“Yes, Eiden. You didn’t mishear me.”I held his gaze, stepping closer until his entire body tightened like a frightened pup cornered in the dark. His face drained of color. “You need to make sure your task doesn’t fail. You understand the consequences, don’t you?”He swallowed hard. “I-I understand, Luna Lyra.”Of course he understood. Everyone knew his entire family survived on the financial aid my mother funneled to them through the back channels.“Your little sister still needs her medicine, doesn’t she?” I murmured softly. “If I pull that support away …, what do you think will happen?”His eyes widened. His breath hitched. Yes. Just like that.“Lyra… Luna… I—I’m not refusing. I just didn’t expect… that you would want—”“Don’t make the mi
