Chapter 71

Ravena's POVI woke to a comforting warmth as sunlight streamed through the tent, painting everything in shades of amber. Blinking slowly, my eyes adjusted to the light, and I felt something heavy and warm draped over my shoulders.It was Evander's cloak.The fabric still carried his scent. That clean, woodsy smell that made my wolf stir contentedly.A soft warmth spread through my chest, settling there like embers glowing in the dark.He had stayed. He had cared for me. And even after I fell asleep, he had left his cloak to keep me warm.I sat up slowly, my body still aching but feeling more rested than it had in days. My fingers touched the fabric of the cloak, tracing the edges."Where is he?" I asked quietly, looking around the tent.Mira was sitting nearby, sharpening her blade. She glanced up at me, her expression unreadable."He left before sunrise," she replied simply.My chest tightened. "Left? Where?""He didn't say." Mira set her blade aside. "But he left one instruction.

Chapter 72

Ravena's POVI looked at him for a long moment, my expression calm.Then I shrugged. "She is not wrong."His mouth fell open, shock flickering across his face."You..." he started, but the words seemed to fail him."You made your choices, Lucien," I said quietly. "You chose Astrid. You chose to ignore orders. You chose to let her run wild. And now you are facing the consequences. That is not my fault. That is yours.""I came here for help. I swallowed my pride and admitted my mistakes. And this is what I get?""You get the truth. Something you have been avoiding for far too long."Before he could respond, Rhea stepped forward again, her eyes blazing with rage. "Do you really think swallowing your pride once makes up for everything? Do you think admitting your mistakes means we should just forgive and forget? That we should risk our lives to clean up your mess?"Lucien sneered, "I didn't ask for your opinion, lapdog."Rhea went still. Dangerously still."What did you just call me?" she

Chapter 73

Astrid's POVPain was the first thing I felt when consciousness dragged me back from the darkness.Excruciating, bone-deep pain that made every breath feel like swallowing glass.I tried to move, but my body wouldn't respond. My limbs felt heavy, useless, like they belonged to someone else.Slowly, painfully, I forced my eyes open.The world came into focus in pieces. A low ceiling, cracked stone walls, and dim light filtering through a small barred window.And cold. So cold.I looked down at myself and my stomach twisted.Silver chains were wrapped around my wrists and ankles, binding me to the wall.My skin under them was burned, raw and blistering where the metal touched. The smell of charred flesh filled my nose, making me gag.I tried to pull against the chains, but pain exploded through my arms. I bit back a scream, my teeth clenching so hard I thought they might crack."Don't bother," a weak voice said from somewhere to my left.I turned my head, wincing at the sharp pain that

Chapter 74

Ravena's POV"Stop with the riddles!" Lucien shouted. "Stop playing games with me! Just tell me what you mean by justice!"I looked at him for a long moment, exhaustion settling over me like a heavy cloak. I was tired. Tired of explaining. Tired of defending myself. Very tired of him."I am done talking to you," I said quietly, turning away.I started walking towards the tent entrance, needing distance. Needing air. Needing to be anywhere but here.But before I could take more than three steps, Lucien moved. He was faster than I expected, blocking my path with his body."Move," I said, my voice cold."No," he said, his chest heaving. "Not until you tell me what is happening. Not until you explain yourself.""I don't owe you explanations," I replied, meeting his gaze head on. "Now move.""Ravena...""Move!" I shouted, my patience finally snapping.His jaw clenched, his hands curling into fists at his sides. "Make me."The air between us crackled with tension. My wolf stirred, ready to

Chapter 75

Ravena's POVEvander turned to look at me, his expression calm. Too calm for someone surrounded by potential enemies."Everything is under control," he said quietly."Under control?" I repeated in shock. "We are surrounded!""I know," he said simply. Then he raised his voice, addressing the warriors behind us. "Fall back! Form a defensive formation! Now!"The warriors obeyed immediately, moving with practiced coordination. Within seconds, they had formed a tight circle, weapons drawn, eyes scanning the darkness.I stood beside Evander, my hand on the hilt of my sword, my wolf pacing restlessly inside me."Stay calm," Evander whispered, his voice meant only for me. "Trust me.""I am trying," I muttered, my eyes fixed on the shadows.The shapes moved closer, stepping out of the darkness and into the faint light filtering through the trees.Ten wolves appeared first. All of them male. All of them battle-scarred and dangerous looking. Their eyes glowed faintly in the darkness, fixed on us

Chapter 76

Ravena's POVBefore I could answer or even process the weight of Kael's question, Lucien exploded."You are nothing but a traitor!" he snarled, taking another step forward with his fists clenched. "Who do you think you are to take Astrid?”Kael turned to look at him, and the expression on his face was one of pure disgust."You think I'm a traitor?" he repeated slowly, his voice dripping with mockery. "Tell me, Lucien. Can you even manage your own affairs? Can you control your own woman? Can you see what is right in front of your face?"Lucien's face flushed red. "I manage just fine.""Do you?" Kael asked, tilting his head. "Then tell me. Do you truly know the real faces of the people around you? Do you know who Astrid really is?""I know exactly who she is," Lucien shot back. "She is loyal. She is brave. She is...""She is a liar," Kael interrupted coldly. "She is a murderer. She is a monster. And you are too blind to see it.""That is enough!" I said sharply, stepping between them. M

Chapter 77

Ravena's POVLucien's face went pale. His mouth opened, closed, then opened again. He looked like a fish gasping for air."I... I..." he stammered, his gaze shifting nervously between me and Kael.Before he could form a coherent sentence, Kael's voice broke through the tension."Let me make this easier for you," Kael spat, his tone sharp with barely controlled rage. "Astrid abused her authority. She tortured my younger brother. The heir to our pack. She questioned him for hours. Beat him. Burned him with silver. And when he would not give her the answers she wanted, she killed him."Lucien flinched as if he had been struck."She murdered a child," Kael's voice grew louder. "A boy who had done nothing wrong. And yet you stand here, defending her? Trusting her blindly?""She..." Lucien started, but his voice cracked. "She would not...""She did," Kael said coldly. "And you know it. Deep down, you know it. You are just refusing to see it."I couldn't hold it in anymore. The pain, the rag

Chapter 78

Ravena's POVLucien's face twisted with confusion and anger. "What do you mean? She is my mate. We are in love!"His words struck me like a physical blow.I had no feelings for him anymore. I knew that. I had moved on. I had let go.But hearing him say those words, hearing him declare his love for her so easily, so openly, it hurt.Not because I wanted him back, but because it brought back memories of the promises he had made to me. All the words he had whispered in the dark. All the vows he had spoken on our wedding day.He had once loved me, or at least, I thought he had. But now, I knew better.My chest tightened, but I forced myself to breathe. To focus. To push the pain aside.This wasn't about me. This wasn't about my broken heart or my shattered dreams.This was about justice.I stepped forward, drawing everyone's attention back to me."Enough," I said, my voice cold and steady. "We can discuss Astrid's motives later. Right now, we need to focus on what matters."Kael turned to

Chapter 79

Ravena's POVI didn't wait for Lucien's answer. I quickly turned away from him, my chest tight with emotions I couldn't name.Pain. Anger. Grief. They were all tangled together, a knot I could not untie.I looked at Kael instead. He was watching me with something that looked almost like understanding."The pain will never go away," I said quietly, my voice steady despite the storm inside me. "It will always be there. Etched into my heart. A scar that will never fade."Kael nodded slowly. "Trust me I know.""We have both lost different things," I continued, meeting his gaze. "You lost your brother. Your father. Your pack's honour. I lost my mother. My father. My brothers. My entire clan. But we were both shaped by that suffering. Molded by it. Changed by it.""Indeed," he said simply.I paused, taking a moment to gather my thoughts. "I understand the weight of your burdens, the sorrow, the anger, the need for justice. I understand all of it.”His expression softened slightly. "And I un

Chapter 80

Ravena's POV"I still stand by my words that Astrid is innocent," Lucien said, his voice shaking but resolute. "Someone is trying to ruin her. Frame her. Destroy her reputation."I stared at him in shock. Despite the overwhelming evidence, the numerous testimonies, and the undeniable truth presented to him, he still believed in her.My wolf snarled inside me. "He is a fool. A blind, stubborn fool.""I know," I whispered back.I wanted to scream at him. Wanted to shake him until he saw sense. Wanted to force him to open his eyes and see the truth that was right in front of him.But I didn't because I knew it wouldn't work. Nothing I said would change his mind. He had chosen his truth and he would cling to it no matter what.So instead, I just shook my head slowly and helplessly. The frustration burned in my chest like fire, but I swallowed it down, pushed it aside and locked it away."Fine," I said quietly. "Believe what you want."He blinked, surprised by my response. "You are not goi
