~~Imogene's POV~~A week in Griffin Pack, and I was getting uneasy with each day that passed. My door was locked, and I could barely even go to the washing room without some set of guards that were assigned to me every six hours following me.I would be counting the time not by the meals they brought me or even sunrise but by how the guard rotated and when Lucian visited. Each day always followed the same routine, so much that it became impossible to mistake it for mere coincidence anymore.At first, I had accepted the arrangements without question. I had been exhausted when they found me, barely able to remain conscious. To recover I need the care, and care required oversight. That logic had made sense in the beginning. It made less sense now, as I was now better but I was still being restricted.Their reason for the locked door was always explained as them being concerned about “rogue activity” or “your safety.” Then there was Lucian’s visits.“How are you feeling today?” Lucian a

~~Imogene's POV~~I woke up that morning to find a new dress on the chair in my room. It was a beautiful aquamarine dress that shines like water in sunlight. The bodice was fitted with beautiful beadwork along the neckline, tiny crystals were sewn in patterns that resembled flowing waves. The sleeves were long and layers gathered at the shoulders, the skirt fell in soft, elegant folds that would move beautifully when I walked. It was a gorgeous dress.It was the fourth dress that had come in this week, each more beautiful than the last. Yesterday’s had been deep emerald with gold threading that caught the light. The day before, cream linen with tiny pearl buttons down the back that ran from the collar to bottom. They all fit perfectly, even with the small swell of my stomach.I put it on. The clothes I wore when I left Fenrir’s pack were already worn, and refusing the dresses seemed rude when they had put in so much care into choosing them. The dress fitted me perfectly. When Cara a

~~Imogene's POV~~I’d been in Griffin Pack for about a month now, and the routine had become comfortable. A knock sounded on my door, and Lucian entered with his usual warm smile. “Good afternoon, Imogene. I hope I’m not disturbing you?”“Not at all.” I pointed to the sitting area by the window. “Please, come in.”He sat on the chair across from me, and I noticed he carried a small wooden box. “I brought you something,” he said, putting it on the table between us. “Open it.”Inside there were all sorts of fruits, each piece was perfectly glazed and arranged like jewels. “These are from the eastern territories,” Lucian explained. “A trader brought them this morning, and I thought you might enjoy them. The apricots are particularly good.”I took one, and ate it, the sweetness melted into my tongue. “This is delicious. Thank you.”“My pleasure.” He leaned back, looking relaxed. “You know, getting those nearly cost me a diplomatic incident. The trader insisted they were reserved for Alpha

~~Imogene's POV~~“How touching.”The voice that cut through the room was smooth as silk and twice as dangerous. I watched Fenrir spin around, putting himself between me and the door in one swift motion, his body tensed as he got into a protective stance.Lucian stood by the door, and my stomach dropped. He wasn’t alone, six wolves stood with him, their eyes gleaming with satisfaction. The trap I hadn’t even known existed had just sprung shut.“Hello, Fenrir.” Lucian’s smile was no longer the kind one I was used to, it looked like a predator looking at a prey. I’d never seen him like that before. This wasn’t the kind friend who had offered me a place to stay. This was someone else entirely. “I was wondering when you’d make your move. Though I must say, I expected better from the great Alpha of the Rogues. Walking right into my territory? That is rather reckless of you, don’t you think?”“Let her go, Lucian.” Fenrir’s voice was deadly calm, but I could see the tension in his shoulders,
