KILLIAN'S POVShe couldn’t look at me.Candice was moving around the command center like her life depended on keeping her back to me, picking files up off the floor and stacking them with way too much concentration.Her shirt was inside out. She still hadn’t noticed.I leaned against the wall, arms folded, watching her fuss with the same three folders over and over."Candice.""I’m working," she said quickly, still facing the desk."You’re stacking the same files in different orders.""They need to be organized."I raised an eyebrow. "The eastern border report is sitting on top of last quarter’s cafeteria budget.""It’s fine. They’re both paper."I waited a beat. "Your shirt’s inside out."She stopped dead.Slowly, she looked down at herself. The seams were showing. The tag was flapping at the front of her collar like a white flag."Shit," she muttered.In one fast motion, she grabbed the hem, yanked the shirt over her head, flipped it right, and pulled it back on. Her hair got even m

CANDICE'S POV“Who the hell is Sara?” Killian asked, his voice cutting through the heavy silence like a blade.Rowan leaned back in his chair, calm as ever, one hand resting beside the white envelope like he’d been saving it for years. “An Omega who used to live right here in this pack house. Six years ago. Records say she died in the rogue attack on the eastern clinic.” His eyes stayed locked on me. “But I’m starting to think those records might be wrong.”Investigator Hale’s pen stopped moving. “That’s a serious allegation, Elder Rowan. I’d be very careful before you throw something like that around.”“I’m quite certain,” Rowan said smoothly, still watching me. “I’ve been certain since the moment she walked through the gates.” He tapped the envelope once. “Shall we open it and see?”Michelle shifted in her seat. “This feels like a cheap distraction.”Claude muttered under his breath, “No shit.”Killian ignored them both. “What exactly are you accusing her of?”Rowan smiled, thin and

CANDICE.I drove with both hands on the wheel and the location pin glowing on my phone screen and told myself for the fortieth time that this was a terrible idea.Nobody knew where I was going. I hadn't left a note. I hadn't told Killian. I hadn't told Claude. I had slipped out of the pack house at five forty five in the morning while the building was still dark and quiet and driven forty minutes outside pack territory on the word of an unknown number because they had said Leo and Lia and that was all it took.Terrible idea.I pulled into the clearing anyway."You came alone," the voice called out from the darkness. "Good. Smart girl."I stepped out of the car, boots crunching over dead leaves. My heart felt like it was clawing up my throat, beating so hard it hurt. I kept scanning the trees until I finally spotted him — a man I'd never seen, maybe in his forties, leaning against a black car. His face was rough, but the way he stood there, still as stone, told me everything. Trained m

CANDICE. We made it back to the pack in twenty minutes. Claude drove like the road owed him something and I sat in the backseat with Leo’s wolf clutched in both hands, my face still wet, my chest still in pieces. I watched the pack house rise through the trees and felt like throwing up. Behind us the northern trace was already being handed off to two of Killian’s warriors who would chase it while we dealt with this bullshit. Killian had jumped out the second we crossed into pack land. No goodbye. Just one long look through the car window — heavy, full of things we never said — before he shifted and disappeared into the trees. His wolf hit the pack bond so hard I felt it slam into my ribs like a second heartbeat. I pressed my hand against my sternum and tried to breathe. "Session starts in ten minutes," Claude said quietly from the front. He glanced at me in the rearview. "You don’t have to go in there, Candice. Seriously, look at you." "Yes I do," I muttered, wiping my nose

CANDICE. Thirty minutes felt like forever. I sat there in the command center squeezing Leo’s wolf so hard my palm hurt, counting every single heartbeat like it might somehow make time move faster. Claude kept glancing at me from his screen but didn’t say anything, which was good because I probably looked one wrong word away from completely losing my mind. My leg wouldn’t stop bouncing under the desk and every few seconds I caught myself holding my breath without realizing it. The radio crackled again and I jumped. "Alpha," Claude said into it. "Eastern border. Status?" Killian’s voice came back, rough and out of breath. "Holding. Barely. Two more breaches. We pushed them back but they’re testing us hard." I leaned closer to the radio, heart pounding in my throat. "Killian? You okay out there?" A tired laugh came through. "Been better. You still waiting for me?" "Yeah. Still waiting." My voice cracked and I didn’t even try to hide it. "Please tell me you’re coming soon.
