111 - KING'S OFFER

Damien does not move from his spot in the dark.He stands perfectly still, leaning heavily on his silver-tipped cane.The Alpha King is wearing a perfectly tailored black suit, looking out of place in the damp basement.He just watches me with an unreadable expression.My heart hammers a frantic rhythm against my bruised ribs.I wait for him to raise his voice.I expect him to call out for the enforcers stationed nearby to arrest me.I expect him to demand an explanation for how I bypassed the locks on the guest suite.I know the council is probably upstairs right now, demanding my head for trespassing in a restricted military facility.Instead, Damien simply turns around."Follow me, Jaslyn," he says quietly over his shoulder.His cane clicks a steady, even rhythm against the stone floor.He doesn't even look back to see if I am obeying his command.I hesitate, my fingers gripping the smooth metal edge of the elevator door frame.My chest still aches with a hollow, raw pain.The word

112 - ULTIMATUM

The twisted metal frame of the door rests on the concrete floor.I stare at the empty space where Jaslyn was just standing, feeling the cold air rush into the armory.The invisible tether connecting us is burning like a live wire inside my chest.Every step she takes away from me sends a fresh wave of agony through my ribs.I promised I would protect her, and then I stood in front of the council and agreed to throw her away.She pushed my hands away like I was poison.The look of absolute betrayal in her eyes is going to haunt me for the rest of my life.The low, angry murmurs of the pack elders pull my attention back to the hallway.They are huddled together, exchanging dark looks and whispering about the scene they just witnessed.Evander Knox stands near the front of the crowd with his arms crossed over his chest.The Beta looks incredibly satisfied with himself.He managed to back me into a corner and force a public concession, securing his daughter's path to the throne

113 - ESCAPE PLAN

I lock the bedroom door behind me and lean my weight against the solid wood.The heavy envelope rests in my uninjured hand.Damien did not send any guards to escort me upstairs, trusting me to walk away quietly.The silence of the sprawling guest wing feels suffocating after the chaos of the underground armory.I push myself off the door and walk straight into the attached bathroom.I flip the light switch and stare at my reflection in the mirror over the sink.I look like I just survived a war zone.My sweater is torn at the shoulder, covered in dirt from the cavern floor.A thin, angry red burn marks the side of my neck where Sienna pressed the pure silver blade into my flesh.My left forearm throbs with a dull, steady ache beneath the ruined bandages.I turn the faucet on and splash freezing water onto my face.The cold water stings my bruised cheek, but it helps clear the fog in my head.I dry my face with a towel and walk back into the bedroom.I drop the thick envel

114 - DUFFLE BAG

Sunlight spills across the carpet of the guest room, bright and unforgiving.I haven't slept a single wink.The thick manila envelope still sits inside the side pocket of my canvas bag.It holds the forged documents that rewrite my existence.Vanessa is not my mother.She bought me from a rogue in a dark alley.She forced me to live a lie.Every memory I have of her dragging me from city to city takes on a toxic, sinister weight.I always thought we were running from bad landlords or angry boyfriends.We were actually running from pack enforcers tracking her scent.I grab a pair of heavy socks from the dresser drawer.I shove them into the main compartment of the bag.I need warm layers for the freezing mountain air tonight.I open the bedside drawer and pull out the cheap plastic watch Connor won for me at the campus fair last month.It feels like a lifetime ago.Back then, my biggest worry was passing my freshman seminars and saving enough for a dorm deposit.Now, I

115 - A LIE

I kick the duffel bag hard.It slides across the carpet and disappears under the edge of the bed skirt.The lock clicks loudly.I scramble to my feet, smoothing down the front of my jeans as the door swings open.Vanessa glides into the room.She brings the heavy scent of floral perfume and hairspray with her.She looks immaculate.Her blonde hair is styled into soft waves that fall perfectly over her shoulders.She wears a tailored white suit that screams quiet luxury.She is holding a long black garment bag in one hand.She smiles at me like we are just two normal people getting ready for a party.It is the same practiced, loving expression she always uses when other people are watching.Except Damien isn't here right now.I know the horrifying truth hiding behind her perfect teeth.The realization makes my stomach churn.She stole me.She fed me toxic herbs for years just to keep my true nature dormant."Good morning, sweetheart," she says, stepping further into t

116 - ANOMALY

The lock clicks into place with a sharp snap.I stand frozen in the center of the room and listen to Vanessa's footsteps fade down the hallway.My chest rises and falls in quick, jagged gasps.She actually thinks she can force me to play the role of the obedient daughter tonight.I look down at the green dress resting across my mattress.The heavy silk catches the morning light and glitters against the white duvet.It looks like a trap designed to humiliate me in front of hundreds of people.Ryder is going to stand on a stage in a few hours and sever our bond.He will tell his council that I am too weak to belong in his world, and he will do it while I am wearing his pack colors.It feels like a sick, twisted joke.I walk over to the window and pull the heavy curtain back just an inch.The Blackwood estate is already swarming with activity.Dozens of caterers carry silver trays toward the massive white tents set up on the back lawn.Pack enforcers in dark suits patrol the perimeter of

117 - EXECUTION

I pull the black silk tie tight around my collar.The expensive fabric feels exactly like a noose.I stare at my reflection in the wide mirror mounted above the dresser.I am wearing the traditional dark tuxedo of the Blackwood pack.The jacket is tailored perfectly to my shoulders, meant to project absolute power.I look like a king to anyone else.But staring into my own hazel eyes, I just look like an executioner.My knuckles are split open and covered in dark purple bruises.The cuts are still fresh from punching the solid concrete wall in the armory downstairs.I adjust the crisp white cuff of my shirt, pulling the fabric down to hide the torn skin.The mate bond burns deep inside my chest.It is a dull, relentless ache that has not stopped since she ran away from me.Every time I take a breath, the severed connection flares with sharp, blinding pain.I can actually feel her fear humming under my own skin.She is somewhere in this massive house, terrified of me.And she has every

118 - DEATH

"It is woven into our nervous systems."I grab the edge of the wooden counter, bracing myself against the phantom pain."When an Alpha rejects a mate, the severance literally burns the nerve endings. It causes the heart to stutter. It can trigger respiratory failure.""Our doctors will be on standby," Evan offers, though he doesn't sound convinced."The doctors cannot fix a shattered soul!" I yell, throwing my hands up."If she dies on that stage tonight, I am going to tear this entire estate apart."I lock eyes with my best friend, letting him see the feral promise in my gaze."I will kill Evander, I will kill Sienna, and then I will let the rogues have the ashes.""If she dies on that stage, you won't survive long enough to fight anyone," Evan says quietly."The feedback loop will kill you too.""Then maybe that is exactly what this pack deserves.""Fuck," Evan curses, rubbing a hand over his face.He picks up his glass and takes a slow sip of the whiskey."My father is standing in

119 - CAUGHT

The grandfather clock in the corner of the guest room ticks in a slow, agonizing rhythm.It is almost midnight.I sit on the edge of the mattress and stare down at my hands.The heavy silk of the emerald gown pools around my legs, catching the dim light from the bedside lamp.Vanessa sent a makeup artist up here three hours ago to paint over my bruises and style my hair.The woman was quick and professional, speaking only to tell me to tilt my chin or close my eyes.She layered thick concealer over the angry red burn on my neck until the silver scar vanished from sight.She handed me a pair of long black evening gloves to hide the dirty bandages on my forearm.I look like a flawless porcelain doll ready to be displayed to the pack.I feel like a prisoner waiting for the executioner to arrive.I grab the small velvet clutch resting beside me on the bed.I had to leave my canvas duffel bag shoved under the bed frame because carrying it down the grand staircase would draw too much attent

120 - PRECISION

She doesn't look like a girl who held a silver blade to my throat just twenty-four hours ago.Her father stands a few feet away, watching the crowd with cold, calculating eyes.The current Beta is tracking every single person who walks into the room, measuring their loyalty and assessing their threat level.If he catches me sneaking toward the kitchens, he will alert his guards instantly.A dull, throbbing ache flares in the center of my chest.The mate bond pulls at my ribs, stretching like a tight rubber band snapping against my lungs.Ryder is down there somewhere.I cannot see him in the massive crowd, but I can feel his presence pressing against the edges of my mind.He is a dark, heavy weight anchoring the ancient magic tying our souls together.The connection hums with a frantic, desperate energy tonight.His fear bleeds through the bond, wrapping around my own terror until I cannot tell which emotions belong to me.He is probably preparing to take the stage and say the words t
