"Reject her."The words shattered Seraphina's world.The Great Hall fell silent.Hundreds of wolves stood frozen beneath the crystal chandeliers, their shocked gazes darting between the Alpha King and the trembling young woman standing before him.Seraphina couldn't breathe.Her heart pounded violently against her ribs as she stared at the man she loved.The man the Moon Goddess had chosen for her.Her mate.Killian Blackthorne.Alpha King of the Northern Territories.The most powerful wolf alive.And the man currently looking at her as though she were nothing."Killian..." Her voice cracked. "What are you saying?"Not long ago, she had dreamed of this day.She had imagined standing beside him before the entire kingdom.Not as a servant.Not as an orphan.But as his mate.His Luna.His equal.Instead, she stood alone beneath the judgmental stares of the pack.Humiliated.Terrified.Broken.Killian's silver eyes remained cold.Emotionless."Did I stutter?"The cruelty in his voice felt

The five rogue wolves stood motionless in the snow.Watching.Waiting.Their glowing eyes reflected the light from Seraphina's lantern.Fear gripped her chest.The storm howled around her, carrying the scent of blood through the frozen night.The young woman lying in the snow wasn't moving.Blood stained her clothing.A lot of blood.Too much blood.Every instinct screamed at Seraphina to close the door.To return to the safety of the cabin.To survive.For herself.For the baby.Yet she couldn't.Not while someone needed help.One of the rogues stepped forward.He was enormous.Nearly seven feet tall in human form.Scars covered his bare arms and neck.His dark eyes narrowed as he studied her."You should go back inside."His voice was rough.Dangerous.Seraphina tightened her grip on the lantern."If she's injured, I can help."The rogue laughed.The sound held no humor."She'll probably die."The words hit her like a slap."Then she needs help even more."For several moments, nobod

The wind over the Rogue Lands never truly slept.It moved like something alive—restless, sharp, carrying whispers of everything that had been lost there. Broken oaths. Forgotten names. Blood that had soaked into the earth until even the soil seemed to remember pain.Seraphina stood at the edge of the ridge, her cloak pulled tightly around her shoulders, watching the horizon blur into a pale smear of dawn. The sun did not rise cleanly here. It struggled, as though even light feared crossing into this cursed territory.Behind her, the small healer’s settlement was waking.Smoke curled from clay chimneys. Someone was already grinding herbs. A child coughed, then laughed. Life—fragile, stubborn life—persisted in a place meant to erase it.Seraphina adjusted the satchel at her hip and inhaled slowly.“Still standing watch like you expect the King himself to appear over the hills?”The voice came from behind her, calm but edged with amusement.She didn’t turn immediately. “He doesn’t need t

The wolves did not leave.By nightfall, they still circled the settlement.Watching.Waiting.Silent shadows moving between the trees.No attacks came.No growls.No signs of aggression.Yet somehow that made them even more terrifying.The entire settlement had gathered around the perimeter walls. Torches burned against the darkness while nervous whispers spread through the crowd.Seraphina stood near the main gate, Aiden beside her.The boy held her hand tightly.His usual curiosity had vanished.Even he could sense something was wrong.The wolves were responding to him.And everyone knew it.Kael approached from the watchtower."There are more arriving from the eastern forest."Seraphina closed her eyes briefly."How many?""Too many to count."Aiden looked up."Are they angry?"Kael's expression softened."No."The boy frowned."Then why are they here?"No one answered.Because none of them knew.Or perhaps they were too afraid to say it aloud.The wolves were here because they had

The words echoed through Seraphina's mind long after the messenger had spoken them.The King is dead.The capital gates loomed before her, but she barely saw them.Killian was dead.The man she had loved.The man who had broken her heart.The man she had hated.The man she had never truly stopped loving.Gone.Aiden tugged gently on her sleeve."Mama?"His small voice cut through the storm raging inside her.She looked down.The boy's bright eyes were filled with concern."Are you okay?"The question nearly broke her.How could she explain grief for a man Aiden had never known?How could she explain mourning someone she had spent five years trying to forget?She forced a smile."I'm fine."Aiden frowned."No, you're not."The honesty of children was a dangerous thing.Before Seraphina could answer, Kael moved his horse closer."We should keep moving."The rider who had delivered the news nodded."The Queen Mother is expecting you."The Queen Mother.Evangeline.A woman Seraphina had o
