Irene’s Point of ViewMy mate was finally coming home.So why did my chest feel so tight?I stood at the entrance of the Hellfire Pack, trying to steady my breath.Luna Lorraine was beside me. Alpha Dave stood close on her other side.Behind us, families filled the space.No one spoke loudly.No one laughed.The air felt heavy.Full of hope… and something else I couldn’t name.Everyone was waiting for the same thing.For their loved ones to return alive.“I see them!”Luna Lorraine’s voice broke as she grabbed my hand.I turned to her.Her eyes were already full of tears, shining with relief.And just like that, mine followed.My vision blurred.My heart pounded too fast, too hard.I was happy.I should have been nothing but happy.But something inside me… wouldn’t settle.Luna Lorraine squeezed my hand, grounding me.Keeping me from falling apart.For months, I had waited.Wondered.Prayed.I begged the Moon Goddess to bring Eugene back to me.And now…He was here.We were about to s

Irene’s Point of ViewFor a second, Eugene lowered his head.He looked… broken.Like something inside him was too heavy to carry.Like he was about to fall under it.But I felt nothing for it.No pity.Only pain.Sharp.Burning.This was him?This was the man I waited for?My mate.My future.The one I thought I would spend my life with.“The battle was intense,” Eugene said.His jaw tightened.His voice came out rough.“You wouldn’t understand. You weren’t there.”He paused, then added,“I was lonely. And you weren’t there.”My chest twisted.But anger rose faster than the pain.Hot.Wild.“So your first thought was to find another woman?” I snapped.My voice shook, but I didn’t hold back.“You couldn’t even wait a few months?”The words came out sharp.But I didn’t care.His excuses…they sounded empty.Weak.Like he was trying to hide something ugly.“Irene!” Eugene raised his voice.But there was no real force behind it.“You don’t understand how I feel!”His eyes flashed.“You we

Irene’s Point of ViewI felt it before I saw him.A gaze.Heavy. Sharp. Unmoving.It slid over my skin and made it crawl.Slowly, I lifted my head…and froze.A man was staring at me.Not just looking.Watching.Like he was studying me.Like I was something he had already figured out.My breath caught.His eyes were dark. Deep. Cold.They didn’t blink.Didn’t soften.I swallowed, my throat suddenly dry.He wasn’t like the others.Not like the werewolves.No.This man… was a lycan.I knew it the moment I felt him.Everything about him was different.Stronger. Heavier. Dangerous.I had never seen him before.And yet…something inside me whispered that I should be afraid.My heart started pounding.Fast. Too fast.For the first time in days, my mind cleared.Not from peace.From fear.Raw. Sharp. Real.Even Alpha Dave had never made me feel like this.Not even Eugene.But this man…He felt like something else entirely.Who was he?I looked away quickly, forcing my breathing to slow.In.

Irene’s Point of ViewIt was hard to look up at him.Arnold was too tall, and we were standing too close. My neck already ached, but I still couldn’t look away.His presence filled the space.Heavy. Dominant.And his scent…Strong. Warm.Strangely intoxicating.I hated that I noticed it.“Be my woman at the party.”He said it like it meant nothing.Like he was asking about the weather.For a moment, I just stared at him.Then the words sank in.“What?” I let out a short, disbelieving laugh. “Are you serious?”My brows pulled together as I studied his face, searching for any sign that he was joking.There was none.“Do you even know who I am?” I asked, sharper this time.Not because I thought I mattered.But because I knew he had heard the rumors.More than that…he knew exactly what I was to Eugene.So why me?“I know you,” Arnold said calmly.Too calmly.“You’re the Alpha’s son’s mate. The future Luna of this pack.” He paused, then added lightly, “Or… was.”The word hit harder than I

Irene’s Point of ViewI stared at him.Was he serious?How could he say that so casually?“With how shameless you are… it’s hard to believe you’re actually an Alpha,” I snapped before I could stop myself.The words slipped out too fast.Too sharp.Arnold didn’t get angry.If anything…he looked amused.Like I had just played into his hands.“That counts as insulting an Alpha,” he said, a faint, cold smile forming on his lips.“I don’t know how things work in your pack… but in mine, people lose their tongues for less.”My stomach dropped.I bit my tongue, literally.Hard enough to stop myself from saying anything else.There was no point arguing with him.Not when he clearly enjoyed it.I might be upset.Broken, even.But I wasn’t stupid.I wasn’t going to make this worse.“Where are you taking me?” I asked instead.My voice came out quieter this time.Careful.But I couldn’t hide the unease.Then I saw it.The building ahead.Large.Imposing.The mansion.The one assigned to the lycan
