 Skylar's POVI wanted to lash out at Anthony and rage at him for betraying me to the Council and destroying any chance I had at building a life with the men I loved in the place that had become my home.But his mention of my mother stopped me cold and every angry word I had prepared died on my tongue. The grief I carried for eighteen years suddenly felt raw again like a wound that had never properly healed beneath the scar tissue I built over it.Anthony watched my reaction carefully and something calculating flickered behind his eyes. "Your mother did not die of illness as Alpha Rhys claimed," He said quietly. "She was murdered by werewolves who discovered she was carrying a Prima lycan's child and they could not allow that abomination to exist."The floor seemed to tilt beneath my feet and I grabbed the back of a nearby chair to steady myself. "You are lying," I whispered but my voice lacked conviction because something about

 Ross's POVI was barely functioning without the mate bond and every day felt like drowning in shallow water where I could see the surface but could not reach it no matter how hard I fought against the emptiness crushing my chest.Half my soul was missing and the hollow space where Skylar used to live inside me ached constantly like a wound that would not heal because the injury went deeper than flesh and bone into places medicine could not reach or repair.Myron was the same and we stumbled through our days like ghosts haunting the pack house where memories of her existed in every corner. We saw her everywhere and nowhere and the contradiction made us both quietly insane with grief we could not express.Training with the volleyball team was impossible because I could not focus on plays or strategies when my mind kept circling back to Skylar and wondering if she was safe and if she thought about us at all in whatever prison the Council locked her ins

Skylar's POVMy control was slipping and I could feel the cracks spreading through the careful composure I had built since arriving at the Citadel three weeks ago which felt like three years of isolation and pressure and expectations I could not meet.The intense training and the complete separation from everything I knew and the constant demand to be perfect crushed me under the weight I was never meant to carry alone without the support system I had destroyed when I broke the mate bond.I snapped at instructors during combat sessions when they corrected my form and I failed exercises I should have passed easily because my concentration shattered every time I thought about Ross and Myron and wondered if they hated me for what I had done.Cassius grew concerned after I threw a training weapon across the room in frustration and nearly hit another student. He pulled me aside into a private office and his expression was serious in ways that made my stomach clench with anxiety about what

Ross's POVChaos erupted the moment Skylar declared she was leaving with us and Anthony lunged forward to physically stop her from walking away. His face was twisted with rage and betrayal because his daughter was choosing werewolves over the safety he spent eighteen years building for her.Cassius ordered guards to detain all of us and weapons appeared from nowhere as lycans moved to surround us and cut off any escape route. The situation was seconds from turning violent and deadly because we were vastly outnumbered inside enemy territory.But Skylar's Prima power flared and I felt it roll off her in waves that made the air crackle with energy. Her command froze everyone in place and even the guards who had been moving toward us stopped mid step with their bodies locked in positions they could not escape.She was learning to wield her authority with precision instead of the wild bursts she had shown before. Right now that power was directed at protecting her mates and the knowledge m
