The fortress was running out of time long before they admitted it.Everyone could feel it.In the restless movements of the warriors.In the exhausted faces around the camp.In the way people kept glancing toward the forest like they expected Eugene’s army to appear at any moment.“Why don’t we have enough people?” Irene asked suddenly.The question made several warriors look at her.She tilted her head slightly as she thought it through.Outside the fortress were hundreds of survivors from the fourth and fifth packs Arnold had rescued. Most were women and children.But they were still pack members.Still survivors.Still capable of helping.“All women in the lycan pack can fight,” Irene continued. “They can help build the moat too.”Several men exchanged surprised looks immediately.She turned toward Ryan.“If the women from your pack help too, I think three days will be enough.”The moat would not stop Eugene forever.Everyone knew that.But slowing him down mattered.Time mattered.

Arnold divided the warriors into four groups.Each group had fewer than forty warriors.Small enough to move unnoticed.Deadly enough to destroy the right target.But instead of heading toward the lycan pack like the others expected…Arnold led his group straight toward the lycan rogues’ base.Confusion spread immediately among the warriors following him.The base was barely defended now.Most of Eugene’s forces had already marched toward the fortress.Which made this place vulnerable.Still…none of them understood Arnold’s real goal yet.And Arnold stayed silent.His sharp eyes scanned the land carefully as they moved through the shadows.Calculating.Adjusting.Even now, half-recovered from poison, his mind remained terrifyingly precise.Only after they arrived did Arnold finally stop.Then he explained the plan.The warriors stared at him in shock afterward.“Do you really think we can do that, Alpha?” one warrior asked carefully.Not doubtful.Just stunned by how dangerous the id

“You have no proof!” Danika shouted.She stood too quickly.Pain twisted sharply through her stomach almost immediately.Danika winced, one hand pressing against her belly, but she refused to look weak in front of Arnold.Behind her, Lorraine continued staring blankly out the window.Muttering to herself.Broken words.Broken thoughts.The sight was almost unsettling.Once, Lorraine had ruled beside an Alpha with pride and intelligence.Now she barely understood the world around her anymore.Whatever happened to her had shattered something inside her mind permanently.“You’re lying!” Danika snapped again.Her voice rose louder this time.“Do you think I’ll believe you?”“Do you really think I’ll turn against my mate because of your words?”Arnold looked at her calmly.Too calmly.“Do you really think he’s your mate?” he asked quietly.The question landed harder than shouting would have.“Do you really think he loves you?”“I don’t care about love!” Danika fired back instantly.“We hav

The way Ruztom looked at her made Irene’s chest tighten.Not because he doubted her.Because it felt like goodbye.Moments later,she stepped out with the baby secured tightly against her chest.Wrapped carefully.Hidden beneath layers of cloth.Safe.At least for now.“You go,” she told Ruztom quietly. “Help the others.”Then after a short pause:“I’ll head to the pack house with Rose and Lena.”Ruztom did not answer immediately.The sounds outside kept growing louder.Warriors moving.Weapons shifting.People pretending they were not afraid.He already knew she was right.The front line needed him.Still,his feet refused to move.“Okay,” he finally said.But before Irene could turn away,he stopped her.His voice lowered.“If it’s not too much…”The rest of the sentence never came.It did not need to.Irene understood instantly.Rejin.Her expression softened.“I know,” she said gently.She touched his arm briefly.Warm.Steady.“I’ll keep her safe.”No matter what happened between

Eugene could not hold his beast form anymore.That was the first thing Arnold noticed.Not the blood.Not the destruction.Not even the bodies scattered across the battlefield.The beast was failing.Piece by piece.Eugene’s massive form twitched violently before collapsing back into something painfully human.Broken.Bleeding.Finished.He had made one fatal mistake tonight.He believed he could face Arnold alone.Now the ground beneath him was soaked with the price of that arrogance.Arnold stood over him silently.Cold.Unmoved.Eugene struggled to breathe where he lay sprawled in the dirt.Blood leaked from his mouth with every weak laugh.Because somehow…he was still laughing.The sound was wrong.Unstable.Like his mind had cracked before his body did.This was the end.Everyone around them knew it.One strike.One clean hit.And Eugene would die.But Arnold did not move yet.Not because of mercy.Because he wanted Eugene awake for this.Wanted him to feel it.The defeat.The f
