Darius woke up before sunrise. For some reason, ever since the previous night, he’d felt that something was wrong. Darius knew it wasn’t just a bad feeling, but something much deeper.The wolf within him kept shifting restlessly, as if sensing an unseen danger. Darius got out of bed and quickly got dressed. As soon as he stepped out of his room, he found Kael standing at the end of the hallway.“Alpha.”“What’s wrong, Kael?”Kael shook his head slowly, a bit hesitantly. “Nothing… yet, Alpha.”Darius stopped and furrowed his brow. “Not yet?”Kael looked at him. “That’s what’s making me a little worried.”***The detention cell was located in the lowest part of the castle. Two guards were standing in front of the door when Darius and Kael arrived.“How’s the prisoner?”“The old man is still inside, Alpha.”“No one’s gotten in, right?”“No one.”Darius nodded slightly. “Open the door.”The iron door swung open immediately. But as soon as Darius stepped inside, his expression changed inst

GONG!GONG!GONG!Right at midnight, the sound of Black Fang’s warrior bells suddenly echoed several times throughout the castle. Serafina woke up instantly upon hearing the sound of hurried footsteps outside her room.“Serafina! Open the door!” Martha’s voice came from behind the door.Serafina immediately grabbed her dagger and opened the door. “What’s wrong, Martha?”“The north gate is under attack.”Serafina’s heart immediately began to race. “Shadow Fang...”Martha nodded. “The warriors are already on their way there.”Serafina didn’t wait a moment longer. She immediately ran toward the courtyard. There, Black Fang had descended into chaos. Soldiers were rushing toward the gate. Several torches had fallen, setting parts of the area ablaze.Horses were whinnying anxiously. And in the distance, the clang of metal could be heard. Darius stood in the middle of the courtyard with his sword drawn. As soon as he saw Serafina arrive, his eyes narrowed.“Why did you come out?”“Because I

Morning seemed to come too soon, and Serafina woke up before the sun had fully risen over the mountains. For a few seconds, she just stared at the ceiling in her room. Then it all came flooding back to her: Kieran’s attack, Project Eclipse, Darius’s confession, their hugs and kisses all over again.Serafina’s face flushed instantly at the thought of her embrace and kiss with Darius the night before. She even went so far as to cover her face with both hands.“Why do I feel so awkward… why did I even kiss and hug Darius yesterday?” Serafina whispered, trying to hide her embarrassment.Because for the first time in years, she felt safe when she was so very close to someone. Not because of coercion or mere orders. But because Serafina had chosen it herself. And that was precisely what made it all feel so surprising and terrifying at the same time.Serafina slowly got out of bed and decided to get ready right away. When she stepped out of her room, Martha was already waiting for her in the

Serafina fell silent for a moment. Her hand began to press gently against her temple, while her breathing sounded irregular. Darius, who was standing near Serafina, looked at her with concern once more.“What’s wrong? Are you sensing something else?”“I’m fine, Darius.”“Are you sure?”Serafina nodded, though her face still looked pale. Yet something inside her kept stirring. It wasn’t pain or a strange voice within her. Rather, it was something that was beginning to feel more alive, something that, for years, had felt like nothing but an empty void.Her wolf. Serafina closed her eyes. For a moment, everything went dark. Then the growl echoed in Serafina’s mind once more. This time, the growl was much clearer than before. Serafina jolted awake.Darius grabbed both of Serafina’s arms. “Serafina?!”“I heard it again.”Darius’s red gaze immediately turned serious. “Try to listen.”Serafina closed her eyes once more. “Don’t try to fight it, Serafina.”“I… I don’t know how.”“You don’t hav

Dawn had not yet fully broken when Serafina and Darius left Black Fang. Fog still hung low among the trees. The morning air felt cold, but Serafina barely noticed it. Her thoughts were focused on only one place: the kingdom that had been destroyed, a place she had known only through ancient scrolls.A place that might hold the answers about the blood flowing through her veins. And about the wolf that had just stirred after years of slumber. Darius walked beside her. Several times he glanced at Serafina. She seemed much quieter than usual.“Are you really sure?”Serafina turned her head. “Sure about what?”“Going there.” Darius pointed toward the forest ahead of them. “We still don’t know what we’ll find when we get there.”Serafina looked back at the path. “That’s exactly why I have to go.” Darius didn’t argue.Serafina took a deep breath. “I’ve spent too many years of my life relying on answers given by others. Shadow Fang said I was a weapon. Kieran said he knew who I was. Project E
