“Do you take me for a fool, Mason? I was wondering why your wolf suddenly tracked me down to the lower rink the other day. Did Collins Parker command you to bait my line?” Chloe Bennett hissed, her fangs practically bared as she stepped into my personal space. “This entire operational trap was engineered by Collins Parker, wasn't it?!”“Why is your scent flaring so intensely, Chloe?” I laughed, leaning against the transport to show her my total lack of concern. “Did your position on Silvercrest's main bench make you believe you were completely above the league rules? Your line is permitted to launch offensive checks against other packs, but the moment a counter-strike lands, you lose your composure? You and Jess drew up multiple playbooks to sabotage Collins on the ice. Your pack should consider it a massive mercy that he hasn't hired rogue fighters from the outer wastes to end your cycles permanently! Besides, this caustic penalty would have never entered your territory if your own h

“Tammy signaled that his transport was breaking for my territory hours ago, but his scent hasn't cleared the valley gates yet, Miss Yachina. Even if the lower mountain trail is choked with frost and ice traffic, his vehicle should have completed the run by this shift.”I bypassed the perimeter markers of my front gates, extending my senses into the biting air to scan the outer ridge.“Do not let your wolf cycle into a panic, Master Collins,” Miss Yachina replied, her voice smooth and calming as she stepped up beside my cloak. “Perhaps his line redirected their path to the high trade stalls to secure newborn offerings for your nest! Whenever his skates cross into our boundaries, he carries a massive bundle of tokens for the successors.”Her reassuring words managed to loosen the sudden grip around my chest, allowing my internal beast to rest slightly.“The mountain gales are cutting through the wood, Collins. We must guide your frame back into the hearth chambers!” Miss Yachina urged,

The Enforcers just tracked the scent to the southern ridge, Brandon,” I whispered, leaning heavily against the frosted glass of the clinic door. My body was trembling, my wolf pacing frantically beneath my skin.Brandon’s face went pale under the dim lanterns of the Mysticfall pack clinic. “He’s still out there? Did they retrieve Isabella Reed?”“They pulled him out of a rogue den near the old Skydrivee border,” I said, the words cutting my throat like shards of ice. “The feral wolves... they broke his bond. The silver weapons damaged his core, and the trauma caused a total separation from his line. He miscarried the pup, Brandon. It’s gone.”I didn’t realize how loud my voice had carried through the crack in the door until I heard the sudden, sharp gasp from the nesting bed behind me.“Collins!” I panicked, throwing the door open.Collins Parker was on his feet, his fingers clawing at the wooden frame, his breathing turning into a ragged, desperate wheeze. Before he could take anothe

“I put Denise Harper through absolute hell, Ethan,” I whispered, my voice thick with a sudden, burning heat as tears finally spilled over my eyelashes. “I brought this curse right to Isabella’s doorstep.”I felt Ethan’s broad, leather-clad arms wrap completely around my torso, his long fingers pressing against my cheeks to brush away the moisture before it could freeze in the clinic air.“Why are you letting your wolf take the blame, Collins? This raid had nothing to do with your scent line. You’re Isabella’s bonded ice-mate, and the pack expects you to remain brothers for life. Do not let these rogue politics corrupt your spirit.”“I’m not dropping the link, Ethan. As long as Isabella keeps his wolf fighting, I’ll stand by his side on the red line until the final whistle.”The weight of that transmission lingered in my mind, drawing me back into the nesting furs where I lay staring blankly at the rough timber ceiling, my thoughts tangling like broken netting.A sudden, sharp chime cu

“The boy is stable,” I said, sitting carefully on the edge of the bed after reviewing his charts. “He’s small, but his core temperature is rising. I encountered Mason in the corridor, Isabella.”“Ah... the papers for the dissolution are already being prepared by Attorney Lucas Grant. I cannot provide the pups his line requires to hold the eastern valley. I will not allow his family to look down on my blood,” he said, his tone entirely empty of emotion. “His elders would curse my name at every assembly if I remained in the main lodge.”I closed my eyes as a sharp ache flared in my chest. “This isn't the solution, Isabella.”“It isn't a tragedy either. I’ve spent my entire life harboring a terror of the birthing den. Now, that fear is permanently removed from my path,” Isabella said, his fingers tightening around mine. “Once the healers clear my travel, I intend to cross the sea to Skydrivee to advance my studies. I will take over my father’s trade house and dedicate my focus to the sil
