Chapter 81

"Elder Ramesh," Travis said, his voice flat. He stepped away from the door of Room 402, positioning his body to block the old man’s view of the handle. "I didn't expect to see you outside of the council chambers tonight."Ramesh stepped forward, his cane clicking sharply against the floor. "And I didn't expect to find the Alpha lurking in the guest wing with his personal guards."Travis didn't blink. He had lived his whole life under the gaze of men like Ramesh. He knew how to lie to them."Aubrey is upset," Travis said, his voice sounding annoyed but convincing. "A necklace... a family heirloom went missing earlier today. She thinks the clasp broke while she was walking this wing earlier. She’s been in tears about it, so I decided to look myself. I wanted to see if someone had kicked it into one of these empty rooms or if a servant had picked it up."Ramesh’s eyes narrowed, scanning Travis’s face. He looked at Storm and Caspian, who stood like statues behind their Alpha. "A necklace?

Chapter 82

Aubrey sat on the edge of the bed, her fingers digging into the silk sheets. The room was too quiet, but outside, the sounds of the pack were changing. Usually, at this hour, Silverstone was settling down. But now, she heard the heavy thud of boots running past her door and the distant, muffled shouts of men.Her heart hammered against her ribs. Travis had told her to stay put, to lock the door and wait for him or Storm. But the commotion was growing louder. Something had gone wrong.She couldn't just sit there. She stood up, her legs still feeling a bit weak, and walked to the door. She turned the lock and pulled it open just a crack.The hallway was a blur of movement. Guards were rushing toward the main stairs, their faces grim. Servants were huddled in corners, whispering and pointing toward the windows that overlooked the training grounds.Aubrey stepped out, her hand resting on her belly. She stopped a young guard who was about to sprint past her."What's going on?" she asked, h

Chapter 83

The silence that followed Aubrey’s confession was heavy, like the air before a massive storm. The only sound was the crackling of the fire pits and the ragged, painful breathing of Sky, who was still slumped against the wooden post.Elder Ramesh let go of the knife. It hit the dirt with a soft thud, but he didn't seem to notice. He began to walk toward Aubrey, his eyes fixed on her face. He moved slowly, his cane forgotten on the ground. When he reached her, he stood so close."You killed my daughter?" he whispered, his voice vibrating with a dangerous, gritted-teeth rage.Aubrey didn't flinch, though her heart was trying to hammer its way out of her chest. She looked him straight in the eyes. "No, Elder Ramesh. I am saying that I was the one meant to be found. Someone hit me from behind and placed that knife in my hand while I was unconscious. I am saying someone framed me for killing your daughter to stir up chaos in Silverstone. My conscience is clear. I did not kill Sora."Elder R

Chapter 84

Storm stood in the flickering torchlight of the prison corridor, watching the heavy iron door close on Aubrey. He felt like a coward. He was the Beta of one of the strongest packs in the region, yet he had just put shackles on an innocent, pregnant woman.He pulled his satellite phone from his pocket and walked quickly toward the exit, needing to breathe air that didn't smell like damp stone and misery. He dialed Danica’s number. He knew he had to tell her, but he dreaded the explosion he knew was coming."Storm?" Danica’s voice was bright, though tired. "How are you? You haven't called me since last week."Storm leaned his head against the cold exterior wall of the prison wing. "Danica... listen to me. I need you to stay calm.""Why do you say that when something is wrong?" Her voice sharpened instantly. "What happened?""Aubrey is in prison," Storm said, the words feeling like lead in his mouth."What? Aubrey is in prison?!" Danica’s voice was a shocked shout that practically vibrat

Chapter 85

Aubrey was curled in a tight ball on the stone floor, her knees tucked toward her chest and her hands protectively cradling her belly. She had managed to drift into a shallow, fitful sleep, her breath visible in the freezing air of the underground wing.The sound of heavy, rhythmic footsteps echoed down the corridor, startling the rats into the shadows.Travis stood outside the iron bars, his face shadowed by the dim torchlight. Seeing his wife huddled on the floor like a common criminal broke his heart into a thousand pieces. This was the woman he had sworn to protect, the woman carrying his heir, and she was shivering in the dark because of a game he hadn't yet won."Open the cell," Travis commanded, his voice vibrating with a dangerous low frequency.The guard at the door hesitated, his keys jingling nervously in his hand. "A-Alpha... Elder Ramesh specifically ordered that no one can visit the Luna until the final day. He said—"Travis didn't even let him finish. He stepped into th

Chapter 86

"Hello? Anybody here? Guard!" Aubrey shouted. Her voice echoed through the dark, damp corridor.A few seconds later, a guard stepped into the light. He looked bored and tired. He stopped a few feet away from her cell and crossed his arms."Do you need something, Ma'am?" he asked.Aubrey flinched at the word. Ma'am. Not Luna. Just a few hours ago, every wolf in this pack bowed when she passed. Now, even a low-ranking guard looked at her like she was already a ghost."Can you call Travis for me? Please. I need to tell him something. It's urgent," she requested, her voice desperate.The guard shook his head, looking down at his boots. "I'm sorry, Ma'am, but the Alpha can't be seen here. He’s been barred from the prison wing by the Council until the morning."Aubrey gripped the bars tighter, her knuckles turning white. "Please, it’s important. Life or death. I need to see him for five minutes. Just five minutes.""I have my orders," the guard said flatly. "No visitors. Not even the Alpha.

Chapter 87

On the high balcony overlooking the wide, sprawling lands of the pack, Travis stood like a statue. His eyes were fixed on the horizon, but he saw nothing. His heart felt like it had been turned to lead.Inside the grand suite, the atmosphere was even more somber. Grand Matriarch Maricar sat beside her husband, Temur. Across from them, the Former Luna and Alpha, Travis’s parents, sat with their heads bowed. The room was silent except for the sound of Maricar’s muffled sobbing."I can’t believe this, Travis," the Grand Matriarch said, her voice cracking as she wiped her eyes. "My granddaughter-in-law and my great-grandchild... they are about to die. How can we just stand here?"Travis didn't turn around. He kept his back to his family, his voice coming out cold and flat, echoing against the stone. "We can’t do anything about it, Grandma. It’s our rules. Silverstone Pack rules cannot be broken. We have lived following these laws long before Aubrey ever came to us."His father, the Former

Chapter 88

Travis raised his hand, his voice cutting through the lingering murmurs of the crowd like a blade. The authority in his tone was absolute, leaving no room for debate."Put Elder Ramesh in the prison cell," Travis commanded, his eyes tracking the disgraced old man. "Tomorrow morning, I myself, the Alpha of Silverstone, will behead him. I am stripping him of his position as the Great Elder of this pack immediately."A ripple of shock went through the gathered wolves, but Travis wasn't finished. "His family, until the seventh generation, will pay for the crimes he committed. Each member will forfeit half of their wages to the pack treasury. They are banned from entering the Great Hall, and no one from his lineage will ever hold a title again. His maids and personal warriors are to be stripped of their status and sold to the border."Ramesh’s face went from pale to a frantic, ugly purple. His eyes widened, darting around for an escape that didn't exist. In a final, desperate move, his han

Chapter 89

The sun was barely over the horizon when the entire Silverstone pack gathered at the execution grounds. In the center of the stage, two wooden blocks sat waiting.Aubrey sat in the Luna’s seat, right beside Travis. She felt the weight of her position more than ever today. To her other side sat Grandfather Temur, his face unreadable, his eyes fixed on the man who had once been his closest confidant.Elder Ramesh was already there. Gone were the fine robes and the prideful stance. He wore a dirty, thin white tunic that fluttered in the morning breeze. His hands were bound behind his back, and his right-hand man stood trembling beside him, looking like he was already halfway to the grave.Travis stood up. He didn't pick up the ceremonial sword this time. Instead, he gripped the handle of a heavy, double-bladed axe. The sun glinted off the sharpened steel. He didn't say a word to Ramesh. There was no need for more talk.With a single, fluid motion, Travis stepped forward. Ramesh didn't ev

Chapter 90

Cassandra rolled her eyes so hard it almost hurt. She didn't offer a thank you or even a second glance, instead, she purposefully bumped her shoulder against his chest as she marched past him. She could feel his eyes on her back, but she kept her chin high, her heels clicking rhythmically against the cobblestone.The market was alive with the calls of vendors. "Fresh lavender, miss!" "Dried wolfsbane for your tonics!" They called to her from every side, recognizing the expensive fur coat and the professional aura she carried. However, her pace faltered when she realized the heavy tread behind her wasn't fading.She didn't need to look back to know who it was."Stop following me, Mr. Castile," she said, stopping mid-stride and letting out a dramatic sigh.Fred caught up effortlessly, his hands shoved into the pockets of his long coat. "I’m not following you, Dr. Hale."Cassandra didn't believe him for a second. She sped up, dodging a group of children and weaving through the crowded st
