Selena.The recognition on my mother’s face had barely settled when another knock sounded against the office door.Sharp enough to cut through the silence that had wrapped itself around the room.Before anyone answered, the door opened.And Denver walked in.Everything shifted the second he stepped inside.His gaze moved slowly across the office, assessing each person standing there. Me. Jameson. My mother. Talia.Confusion flickered briefly across his expression because none of us belonged in the same room together.Not like this.His brows pulled together slightly as the door clicked shut behind him.“What’s going on?”His voice stayed calm, but there was something underneath it now. A sharpness that always appeared when he stepped into situations already carrying the scent of conflict.Nobody answered immediately.The tension from my mother’s words still clung to the room so heavily that even Denver seemed to feel it the moment he entered.My mother recovered first.Too fast.“Oh, n

Talia.By the time we returned to the packhouse, my mother was already moving through the room like someone being chased by a fire only she could see.“Start packing,” she snapped the second we stepped inside. “Take only what matters.”I stared at her in confusion as she yanked open drawers and started throwing clothes onto the bed with shaking hands.“What are you talking about?”“There’s no time, Talia. Just do it.”The panic in her voice made my chest tighten slightly, but irritation rose faster.Ever since we left Selena’s office, she had been acting strangely, glancing over her shoulder too often, barely speaking during the drive back. At first, I didn’t think much of it. I assumed seeing Denver in Selena’s office had unsettled her, but this felt different.I crossed my arms. “Mother.”She ignored me and reached for another drawer.“Why are we running?”“We are not running,” she snapped too quickly. “We are being careful.”“That sounds exactly like running.”She stopped abruptly t

Denver POVBy the time I got back from the Council meeting, the irritation sitting inside me had sharpened into something dangerously close to anger.Not because they questioned me.I was used to that.Power always came with people waiting for weakness.But this?This was different.Christopher had overdone it this time.The moment I stepped into my office, I shut the door harder than I intended and loosened the collar of my shirt, trying to get rid of the pressure still sitting against my throat. It didn’t help.The Council’s words kept replaying in my head. Seven days until the rituals. The accusations were enough to make my jaw tighten again. I pulled my phone from my pocket and dialed Jacob immediately.“Alpha.”“Office. Now.”I ended the call before he could say anything else.Jacob arrived less than five minutes later, stepping into the office with the same alert expression he always carried when he knew something had already gone wrong.“I heard about the summons,” he said car

Denver.By the time Talia reached my room, I was already on my second drink.The whiskey burned going down, but it didn’t do a damn thing to quiet my head.Christopher’s voice still echoed through my head, repeating every word.Your acclaimed baby mama, Talia informed me herself that the boy was born human.If she really said those words to him like I was beginning to believe she had, then it only meant one thing.She wasn't Alec's mother. Just like I have suspected from the beginning. I stared at the amber liquid in my glass for a moment longer before the knock finally came.Right on time.“Come in.”The door opened slowly.Talia stepped inside carefully, her eyes moving across the room before settling on me. For a second, she hesitated near the entrance like she wasn’t sure whether she actually wanted to be there.It was the first time she had ever set foot inside my private quarters.I watched her take it in quietly.The dim lighting.The untouched fireplace.The heavy silence sits

Denver.After I left Alec's room, I couldn't get Selena off my mind. The tension in her eyes before the guard arrived to say they had found Alec, it was real, natural. And though, she had lied that she was looking for Jameson, I knew it was a lie from how she avoided my eyes when she said it. And despite every other thing that she said, I couldn't help but notice Alec's scent on her. And unlike when I pick Alec's scent on Talia's body, this one was different. It was almost as if Alec's scent had found a home. I didn't ask her because I didn't know how to. without upsetting her. So, I asked them to bring the only person who could fix the puzzle in my head. Jameson. By the time Jameson arrived at my office, I had a lot of things I wanted to ask him. Jameson stepped inside carefully after the guard shut the door behind him.For a moment, neither of us spoke.Then he sighed deeply, already looking exhausted."I was told you sent for me, Alpha,” he said calmly. “Yes, I did," I repli
