The challenge came three weeks after Aldric's funeral. Kael had been avoiding the pack as much as possible, spending his days in the forest and his nights in his father's empty cabin. The elders had stopped pressuring him to make a decision about leadership, but the weight of their expectations still pressed against his chest every time he walked through the settlement. Wolves watched him with a mixture of hope and doubt, wondering if the alpha's son would ever become the alpha the pack needed. Gunnar was the one who finally forced the issue. He was an older wolf, past his prime but still strong, with a sc

The scouting mission never happened. Kael and his wolves were still hours from the eastern border when they heard the screaming. It drifted through the trees, thin and distant, carried on a wind that smelled of smoke and blood. Kael's heart lurched in his chest. He had heard wolves scream before—in battle, in grief, in the final moments of a life violently ended. But this was different.

She had been passed between foster homes throughout her childhood, never staying anywhere long enough to form attachments, never bein

The healers had done everything they could, but Selene's body was failing faster than their magic could repair. The visions had drained her of strength, of color, of the spark that had made her the pack's most revered priestess. Her skin was pale, almost translucent, and her storm-gray eyes had lost their sharpness, replaced by a distant, unfocused gaze that made Kael's chest ache every time he looked at her. She had refused to stay in the healers' tent, insisting on returning to her own cabin, where the walls held memories of Aldric and the fire kept her warm. Kael had carried her there himself, settling her into the bed she had shared with his father, propping her up with pillows so she could see the window and the forest beyond.
