Mason’s povI had seen Letty fight monsters, I had watched her stand before Edwin without flinching, her chin raised while the air itself seemed to bend around him and I had seen her face powers older than our bloodline and walk away with nothing but a torn sleeve and a stubborn smile.But nothing frightened me more than watching her bleed, especially when I didn't understand what had hurt her.We returned home under a convoy of armored vehicles, six of my best wolves riding in the lead car and six more behind. No one spoke as I kept my eyes on the dark windows and one hand on Letty's knee, as if she might vanish if I let go.At the manor, I carried her through the front doors myself, ignoring her protests. The healer was already waiting in the east wing, her silver braid pinned tight and her satchel open on the table.She unwrapped Letty's hand slowly. The wound was shallow, a thin line across the palm, and it had already begun to close. The edges knit together before my eyes, pink s

I felt a painful tightness in my chest, I knew that kind of desperation, the feeling of waking up every morning hoping for good news and the fear that the next message might destroy the little hope you had left.I looked at her. "Do you believe he's still alive?"She didn't answer immediately, her eyes moved toward a framed photograph on the table beside her. It showed a younger Victoria standing between two handsome young men.Both were smiling.She reached for the photograph. "Daniel always calls me on Sundays."Her voice softened. "Even when he's busy, even when he's traveling and he never forgets."She smiled sadly. "The first Sunday after he disappeared, I sat beside my phone all day."Nobody spoke."The second Sunday, I told myself he was somewhere without a signal."Her fingers brushed the photograph."By the third Sunday, I stopped making excuses."A tear slipped down her cheek but she quickly wiped it away."But I still keep my phone beside me every Sunday."My throat tighten

Lucas's PovPOV: LucasI had served Mason for eleven years, eleven years of loyalty, battles, sacrifices, and decisions that had shaped the empire he controlled today. I had watched him build companies from almost nothing, I had stood beside him when rival Alphas challenged his authority, I had seen powerful men beg for mercy after making the mistake of underestimating him.And I had watched him make decisions that would have broken most men.But in all those years, I had never seen him look as dangerous as he did when Victoria Blackthorne mentioned Edwin's name.It wasn't just anger, it was something much deeper, something personal.And I knew exactly why.Letty.Mason could face an army without showing the slightest fear, but when it came to his wife, everything changed. Anyone who threatened Letty was asking for trouble and judging by the expression on Mason's face, Edwin and Volt had just made a very dangerous mistake.The drive back to Mason's headquarters was unusually quiet, Ma

But still nothing happened. My body remained human as my strength continued to fade. And for the first time in eleven years of serving Mason, I understood what true helplessness felt like.One of the men raised a strange weapon, it wasn't a gun. At least, not one I recognized. A small blue light appeared at its tip as I stared at it."What... is that?"The man didn't answer, he aimed it at my chest. I tried to move but my body refused. Then a sharp pulse struck me as pain tore through my entire body.I screamed as my back arched and every muscle tightened. For a brief moment, I felt something move deep inside me.My wolf.A faint presence, weak, struggling and still alive. Hope flashed through me.You're there.I tried to reach him but before I could, another pulse struck and the connection disappeared again. I collapsed onto the floor and my vision darkened.Through the haze, I heard one of the men speak."Subject is responding."Another answered. "Resistance level?""High.""Expecte

At first, it was only a faint warmth, a gentle pulse beneath my skin, then the silver mark on my wrist began to glow.I slowly raised my head as my tears stopped. Something was happening, I could feel my wolf moving inside me.Not restlessly, not angrily but purposefully. As though she had been waiting for me to become quiet enough to listen. I closed my eyes and suddenly, the world around me changed.I could still hear Mason's heartbeat, still feel his hand in mine but beyond the walls of the medical wing, I sensed something else.The city, thousands of people, hundreds of wolves, their heartbeats, their emotions and their restless movements.It was overwhelming, yet somehow, I could understand it. My awareness stretched farther, beyond the city, beyond the forests and toward the distant mountains.And then...The kingdom.I felt it.The ancient land where my story had begun, the place where my bloodline had first awakened. For a brief moment, I sensed my mother.A familiar warmth, a
