Nina POVThe great hall of Silverfang pack house had never looked more alive or more terrifying, filled with people I didn't know, it was crazy.Hundreds of candles floated in crystal chandeliers, their flames dancing like captive stars. Long oak tables filled the room covered with white satin veils.fresh bread still steaming from the ovens, and pitchers of blackberry wine that smelled so nice, I think Enzo didn't understand what a little dinner was, he wanted to feed the whole wolves on Earth today. Wolves from every rank filled the room, warriors in perfectly fitted suits and ladies in pretty dresses,. Laughter filled the room, I think they just needed an excuse to celebrate because this was too much.I stood at the head table in a gown the color of moonlight silver silk that clung to my curves and spilled to the floor in soft waves. Enzo sent it to my room yesterday, My hair had been braided with tiny moonstones that caught every flicker of light. The pack had dressed me like a q

NinaI hadn’t anticipated this rush of emotion. The moment my eyes opened, Max’s voice echoed inside my skull very clearly, cheerful, and completely uninvited. It wasn’t a private whisper meant only for me, it felt like a broadcast announcement rippling through the entire pack. If anyone else found the mind-link strange or intrusive, they never showed it. Silverfang truly was different. Here, thoughts flowed freely, warm and welcoming, like a shared heartbeat. No cold barriers. No suspicion lurking behind every connection. Nothing like the guarded, fractured silence that had defined Crestmoon.Enzo is curious about me, I woke up and his hands were wrapped around me and I needed to use the bathroom urgently. I tried holding it on but I felt I would burst.I slid off of the bed slowly, and when I got back from the bathroom he was laying on his side asleep.He was curious but he could actually just ask me questions or spend time with me but he acted like it was the worst thing on earth,

Dexter POVThe human world always tasted too clean.No blood in the air, no howls under the moon. Just coffee steam, exhaust fumes, and the endless chatter of prey who thought they were predators. And endless girls I pick up from strip clubs and send them as additional stock they were too easy to manipulate, it was too easy.I adjusted the wire rimmed glasses on my nose and leaned against the brick wall outside Eldridge University’s main gate, pretending to scroll through my phone like any other bored professor waiting for office hours.But my eyes never left her, Lily Harper.She was walking out of the journalism building, her braid swinging, backpack slung over one shoulder, laughing at something her roommate Chloe had just said.Her laugh was light, she looked like she didn't have a worry in the world, that's why she was perfect for my plan. She didn't have any reason to have her guard up, she was full of genuine thrill, which made my claws itch inside their glamoured skin. I wa

Lily POVThe evening air had turned cooler than I expected“Traffic’s brutal tonight. It would take hours for your Uber to get here, and I can’t leave you out here waiting.”I couldn't stay here that jerk could come back before my Uber gets here, and what if he didn't come back alone?Professor Kane…. Dexter, as he’d insisted I call him outside of class stood a few feet away, hands in the pockets of his dark coat, the wire rimmed glasses catching the glow of a nearby lamp. He looked effortlessly put together as always like he didn't just threaten a man “I figured we could ride together,” he continued smoothly, I could drop you off at your dorm. Is that fine?”I hesitated for half a second. Getting into a professor’s car at night felt a little bit bold.The kind of thing good girls like me didn’t usually do. But Dexter had never once made me feel anything but safe. He was kind. Patient beyond reason with my endless questions about ancient myths, weird creatures, and hidden worlds. He

Nina POVThe bathroom mirror was fogged from the cold water I’d splashed on my face, but it still showed me the truth I didn’t want to see: swollen lips, flushed cheeks, wild eyes, and the faint red marks on my neck where Enzo’s beard had scraped against my skin. I looked like a woman who had just been thoroughly kissed by her mate.I looked like a traitor.Sky was still purring in the back of my mind, smug and satisfied. That was hot. His hands, the way he pinned us, the growl when you gasped… I could feel how much he wanted us. Why are you hiding in here? Go back out there and finish what we started.“Because I can’t,” I whispered to my reflection. My voice cracked. “Because in less than an hour I have to sneak out to meet Dexter outside the pack and hand over the armory codes. Because my father is missing two fingers already and if I don’t show up, he’ll lose more. Because I just let myself fall into Enzo’s arms like I deserve to be there, when I know I didn't.”Sky huffed, curling
