“Kill her now!”For one heartbeat, nobody moved. The order hung above the chamber like the first crack before a mountain collapsed. Then everything broke.A Shadow Fang Sentinel lunged toward the iron cage. Dean moved first, Rowena barely saw the shift happen. One moment, he was a man several strides away, his hand reaching for his weapon. The next, bone snapped beneath skin. His body surged upward, black fur tore across him. A roar exploded through the hall.The massive black wolf hit the first attacker before his claws could touch the cage. They crashed into the center aisle, wood splintered, the stone shook. The Sentinel screamed once before Dean's jaws closed around his throat. Blood sprayed across the floor then the hall erupted. Nobles overturned benches in their rush toward the exits, elders were dragged away from falling chairs, protective wards flared along the stone walls as the first wave of rogues attacked them. Blue-white light flashed, the wards held then shattered. Th

“Don't look at me like that, Dean. I know how to get out of a cage.”For the briefest second, Dean stopped not because the battle had stopped, it hadn't. The chamber was still drowning in smoke, blood, and the sound of wolves tearing through one another. Steel struck stone, protective wards flashed and died along the walls. Somewhere beyond the overturned Council seats, someone screamed for a healer. But Dean looked at her, then at the silver restraints around her wrists. His expression changed.Rowena saw the understanding come too late.“Ironfang taught you.” Rowena lowered her eyes.“No.”Her fingers slipped into the hidden seam inside her sleeve.“It taught me not to wait for anyone.”The thing she found was small. Cold and familiar. For three years, it had followed her.Through Ironfang.Through release.Through the road back to Moonhaven.Through every room where someone else had held the key. An iron pick. Barely longer than her finger, thin at one end, flattened at the other

“Rowena, get down!”Dean's warning came too late, the Sentinel in front of him lunged. Dean blocked the blade, but the impact drove him backward. His boots scraped across the blood-slick stone. Another attacker came from his left, he twisted aside. The blade still caught his ribs, pain exploded through him. Dean staggered.His wolf snarled beneath his skin, demanding release, but even his wolf was weakening. The just concluded New Moon had stripped away too much of his strength, and the Sentinels knew it. They had been trained for this, they had studied him, they knew how he moved, they knew when his strength would fail. And worst of all, they knew the Assembly. Every corridor, every blind corner, every defensive position. Dean wiped blood from his mouth.Across the chamber, the traitor watched. Calm, almost bored. That was what Dean hated most, this wasn't a desperate attack.It was an execution; his execution, and Rowena's. A Sentinel raised his weapon, Dean prepared for the strike

“Get your hand off that seal!”I charged, the traitor barely had time to turn before three Shadow Fang Sentinels stepped between us.Steel flashed, I raised my arm. The first blade struck my shoulder, pain exploded through me, I grunted and drove my fist into the Sentinel's throat.He staggered. I caught his wrist, twisted until bone cracked, and threw him aside.Another came from my left, I ducked. His blade cut through the air above my head. I slammed my elbow into his ribs and drove him backward.“Dean!”Rowena's voice, I looked toward her for half a second. She stood near the entrance, blood still dripping from her wounded palm. Her eyes were on me, not the traitor. The distraction almost cost me, a Sentinel's knee slammed into my stomach. I doubled over, his fist crashed against my jaw. I hit the stone floor.For a moment, the chamber spun. Then I heard the seal humming, the sound dragged me back. I pushed myself up. The traitor stood behind his guards, his bleeding palm hoverin

“Come on, Rowena. Show them what Ironfang made you.”The traitor smiled, I raised my blade.Around us, the Assembly had disappeared into the background. No council, no guards, no Alpha, no politics. Just him and me. He stepped away from the succession seal. The ancient crest continued to pulse behind him, bathing the chamber in shifting light. I didn't care about it anymore, not yet. He had killed too many people, he had manipulated too many lives. And somehow, every road kept leading back to the same place.Amara!.I moved first, our blades collided. The impact shot through my wounded hand. He was fast, faster than he had been moments ago. He twisted his body and struck for my ribs, I blocked. His elbow slammed into my jaw, I stumbled. He came again, I ducked beneath his blade and cut across his side.Blood appeared.He looked down, then laughed.“You're angry.”I said nothing.He attacked, I blocked high.Low.High again.He forced me backward, “You know what your problem is?”His
