LILA'S POVThe night air was cold against my skin as I stood at the edge of Blackwood Territory, staring at the gates I swore I'd never see again.It's been three years since they threw me away like I meant nothing.My heart was pounding so hard I could hear it in my ears, but I forced myself to keep walking.The guards at the gate didn't recognize me at first. Why would they? The girl who left three years ago was soft, broken, begging them not to reject her."State your business," one of the guards said, stepping forward with his hand on his weapon."I'm here to see the Black brothers," I said, my voice steady even though everything inside me was screaming to run.The guard's eyes narrowed. "The Alphas don't take visitors without an appointment.""They'll see me," I said simply."And who are you?" the second guard asked, moving closer now.I met his eyes directly, not flinching. "Tell them Lila Harper is here."Both guards froze.I watched recognition dawn on their faces, watched sho

LILA'S POV "You brought an army to our territory?" Marcus roared, his Alpha aura flaring out like a physical force.I felt it hit me, that commanding power meant to make wolves submit.

Somehow, that was more terrifying than Marcus's shouting."No," I said, forcing myself to look at him even though being this close to him made my chest ache. "This is me making sure you can't throw me out again.""We should have killed you when we had the chance," Ma

LILA'S POV Glass exploded inward, and I threw my arms up to shield my face, strong hands grabbed me, pulling me down behind the desk. Marcus's body covered mine, protecting me from the shards raining down."What the hell?" Ethan shouted.I looked up and saw figures pouring through the broken window. Not my wolves. These were different, bigger and more violent, they were real rogues."Protect the Alphas!" someone shouted from outside.The office door burst open and pack warriors flooded in, forming a barrier between us and the attackers.Marcus pulled me up, his hands on my shoulders. "Are you hurt?""I'm fine," I said, pushing him away. "What's happening?""I don't know," Ethan said, his eyes glowing gold as his wolf pushed forward. "But we need to get you somewhere safe.""I don't need protection," I said.One of the rogues broke through the line of warriors, heading straight for me.I didn't think twice before I reacted.Power exploded out of me, sending the rogue flying backward t
