Elara, Malinda, and Rosa hurried back to the Alpha’s residence, the piece of dark cloth clutched tightly in Elara’s hand. The night air felt colder than usual, every shadow seeming to hide watching eyes. When they entered the main hall, Jax was waiting, his expression shifting from surprise to concern when he saw Malinda. “Malinda? Why are you here at this hour?” Jax asked, stepping closer. Elara spoke before Malinda could answer. “We found something. A piece of clothing hooked on a tree near the path to Elder Cassandra’s cottage. It looks like part of a healer’s robe the same style the new assistant was wearing.” Kai appeared from the corridor, his face hardening as he heard her words. “Show me.” Elara handed him the cloth. “This person is watching everyone close to me. They’re not just targeting me , they’re watching my friends too. I think the best strategy is for us to stay in one place and not let anyone else know we’re watching them. We need to act normal but be extreme

As they finally moved toward their chambers, a soft sound came from the corridor, the faintest scrape of fabric against stone. Kai’s head snapped up, eyes flashing with his wolf. In one fluid motion, he pushed Elara behind him and rushed out, a low growl rumbling in his throat. Elara’s heart leaped into her throat as she hurried after him, refusing to stay behind. They burst into the dimly lit kitchen. A young maid froze near the large stew pot, ladle in hand, spooning food into a small bowl. Her eyes widened in terror when she saw the Alpha and Luna. Kai’s stance was battle-ready. “What are you doing?” The maid dropped the ladle with a clatter and fell to her knees. “I-I’m sorry, Alpha! Luna! I was hungry… I’ve been on duty since dawn and didn’t get my evening meal. I only took a small portion. Please forgive me!” Elara stepped forward, placing a calming hand on Kai’s arm. The mate bond helped soothe his protective rage. “It’s alright,” Elara said gently. “Go ahead and eat.

The next day dawned clear. Elara woke nestled against Kai’s chest, the steady rhythm of his heartbeat grounding her after another night of light fever dreams. The poison had mostly released its grip, but a subtle weakness lingered in her limbs. She shifted, and Kai’s arms tightened around her instinctively.“Morning,” he murmured, pressing a kiss to her temple. The mate bond warmed instantly, a golden thread of comfort and strength. “Any pain?”“Much less,” Elara replied, tilting her face up to meet his gaze. “Thanks to you staying with me all night.” Kai eventually pulled back with a reluctant sigh. “Training today?”Elara nodded firmly. “Light, but I need to continue. I refuse to stay weak.” She shifted carefully, and Kai stirred immediately, his golden eyes scanning her with concern.“How do you feel?” he asked, voice still heavy with sleep. His hand rested protectively on her waist, the mate bond humming warmly between them.“Better,” Elara replied, offering a small smile. “E

The chaos in the main hall lingered long after the dart struck. Lanterns flickered wildly as guards sealed every entrance. Malinda lay on the floor, propped against Jax’s chest, her face twisted in pain but her eyes blazing with defiance. The thin graze on her arm had already begun to swell with an angry red hue, the familiar sickly scent clinging to the air like a bad omen.Elara knelt beside her immediately, hands glowing with soft healing energy. “Hold still, Malinda. It’s the same poison base, but faster this time.” Her voice was steady despite the fear gripping her own heart. She channeled purifying energy into the wound, slowing the spread while Elder Mira prepared a stronger antidote mixture of blue-root and charcoal.Jax held Malinda tightly, one hand stroking her hair. “You’re tough. You’ve survived worse training injuries. Stay with us.” His voice cracked slightly, revealing the depth of his feelings. Malinda managed a weak smirk. “Only you… would flirt while I’m poisoned.”

The moment the voices inside the holding building faded and footsteps moved away, Elara caught Malinda’s wrist and pulled her deeper into the shadows beneath the outer wall. Rosa followed without a sound, her hand already resting on the hilt of her short blade. For several long heartbeats none of them spoke. They listened instead to the settling of the night, to the distant call of a night bird, to the absence of any further movement from within.Only when the silence held did Elara dare to whisper. “That wasn’t just a blackmailed servant,” she said, her voice barely more than breath. “They’re planning to kill the real Greta and leave the imposter free or the woman in that cell is already the replacement.”Malinda’s eyes flashed in the dark. “Either way, someone inside the pack has the power to arrange transfers, plant evidence, and schedule an execution. This isn’t one bitter healer working alone.”Rosa glanced back toward the barred window, jaw tight. “We need to know who the second
