Arthur had been arrested the minute Kent had vanished before our eyes in the chapel. But Kaia hadn't reacted, not really. She hadn't screamed, cried, or even looked at him while Noah restrained him and dragged him out of the chapel. As far as I knew, in those last three days, she hadn't even gone looking for him in the dungeons.But she could avoid facing her mate for much longer.Atticus brought him there completely silently. If it weren't for the heavy footsteps in the hallway, I wouldn't even have noticed they'd arrived. Well, that, and Arthur's smell. Once always clean, almost antiseptic, now his scent was mixed with dirt and that metallic hint of dried blood.I thought I'd have flashbacks to when the Moonjoys were brought to us, but Arthur seemed to refuse to abandon his haughty posture. Or, at least, what was

“I… I never really wanted to kill him…” her son stammered “I just… I just didn’t want everyone to think he was better than me because he was stronger. I… I never had proof that Dad was the one who started that fire when we were kids, so I never really thought much about it. But when he came up with the idea of ​​that ambush months ago, I… I thought he was going to get hurt and give up the line of succession. That’s all.”“Don’t blame him!” Arthur grunted “He has nothing to do with Kent! I did it all by myself. Everything I told Cassian was just enough to keep things under control! You can’t punish him for my mistakes, Kaia…”“Your errors…” Cassian repeated, his eyes falling into the void where his leg should have been.“That…” Arthur’s voice trailed off for a moment “That wasn’t my fault, Cassian! It was that girl w

“Princess.” Her father was the first to greet me, he and his wife bowing deeply as soon as they saw me behind Noah.Violet hesitated for a moment, a disgusted grimace on her face, but even so, to my surprise, she imitated them.“What’s the need for so much formality?” I smiled, not daring to take even a step away from Noah, at least not for now “I’m glad to see you all again. So much has happened since that disaster at the tournament… I haven’t had time to personally check if you were alright…”“Always so kind.” Connie smiled gratefully “Thankfully, we’re all well. Oh, of course, and we apologize for bothering you. I’m sure you and Alpha Garrett have a lot to do after…” she hesitated “I still can&rsqu

I knew she would be here.She had requested several escorts over the past few days, just to be able to pray in that chapel, especially after Violet died days ago. I have no idea what the sorcerer was trying to turn her into by making her drink my wife's blood, but something about the way her dead body continued to try to "fight" even without its head… Reminded me of the chimera's relentless attacks.It was ironic to think that, despite being the one who killed that thing, I had never really seen what it looked like.But after hearing Holly's descriptions of that night countless times and seeing Violet's body deform before my eyes, as if she were made of clay…I stifled a groan. If the sorcerer were truly capable of creating another chimera…I took a few steps into the almost completely empty chapel, wondering if this was what had been upsetting my mate so lately. I found it hard to believe it was because of her “sister’s” death. Holly seemed more guilty about having to face Violet’s pa

At first, I thought I was going crazy. But then the wind moved and brought a whiff of his scent to me, even though it was still weak because of his frail condition.And when I turned around, there he was. My brother, sitting in his wheelchair, being pushed by one of the old healers, who was the only one who seemed to truly understand the gravity of what was happening there. His eyes nervously scanned the surroundings several times, clearly trembling that Kent might emerge from the shadows at any moment, but even so, he pushed Cassian towards me.“What do you think you’re doing?!” I growled “You should be underground with the rest of the pack! Do you have any idea how dangerous it is out here? Especially now…”“Especially now that I’m paralyzed?” he snorted, making me press my lips together “No, of course you wouldn’t say that. Mother’s new golden child would never disappoint her like that, even when she’s not around, would he?”“If you came all this way to argue, Cassian…” I rolled my
