Iris took a deep breath, attempting to steady her pounding heart before refocusing on the task at hand.She reached for another strip of fabric torn from her uniform, dipping it briefly into the clean water carried in one of the remaining pouches inside her small bag. Fortunately, the pouch was tied securely to her waist and had not been lost when the current swept them away."This might sting," she warned before pressing the damp cloth onto one of the deepest cuts on Kael’s back.Kael hissed softly, his back muscles tensing for a moment. "It seems your hands aren't quite as soft as your face.""Quiet, or I'll stop right now," Iris threatened, though her hands continued to move with delicate care, cleansing the remaining mud and dirt from the wound as thoroughly as possible."Alright, alright," Kael raised both hands in defeat, though a faint smirk lingered on his face, hidden from Iris's view.After cleaning the wounds as best as she could given their limited resources, Iris tore the

The booming roar slammed against the cave walls, causing the campfire to flicker violently.Iris froze instantly.Kael, who had been staring at her intensely just moments ago, straightened up immediately, despite the sharp protest from the wounds on his back."Be quiet," he whispered rapidly, his hand instinctively pulling Iris behind his body.GROOOOAAARRR!The second roar was much closer. The vibrations rattled them to their bones. From outside the cave's mouth came the heavy thud of footsteps pounding against the dirt, followed by the crunching of snapping branches and heavy, raspy breathing.Iris gripped Kael’s arm tightly. "That’s… not a normal wolf.""I know." Kael frowned, his scent catching the powerful stench of blood and damp earth. "And there's more than one."He glanced back to make sure Iris was still in a relatively safe spot near the fire. "Stay here. Don't move unless I tell you to."

Kael woke up, blinking a few times as he pinched the bridge of his nose to clear his vision.He slowly realized something heavy—though not terribly so—was resting on his chest.When he opened his eyes, he was stunned to find Iris asleep in his arms in an intensely intimate position.The cloak wrapped around Iris had slipped open slightly, revealing that she was wearing nothing underneath except her bra."Oh damn, what did she do?" Kael muttered, suddenly tensing up as his heart began to pound wildly.He held his breath, trying not to move a muscle so he wouldn't wake her. Yet, his eyes couldn't stop wandering over her face as she slept so peacefully against his chest. Her breathing was steady, a stark contrast to the anxious expression she must have worn the night before.Gradually, hazy memories returned to him—the fever consuming him, his shivering body, and Iris’s voice repeatedly calling his name through the fog o

“She was not careless. Someone tried to harm her,” Kael protested. “Right now, Warden Damon’s whereabouts are completely unknown.”Lucien stared at Kael for a long moment before shifting his gaze to Julius, who was still struggling to maintain a calm facade despite his fingers tapping anxiously against his thigh."Damon was not among the forest wardens who returned," Lucien said softly, more to himself. "I checked the roll call before you arrived."Julius went silent for a brief second, his face paling slightly, but he quickly composed his expression. "He likely panicked and fled for fear of being blamed, Alpha. That does not mean there was malicious intent behind it.""A seasoned forest warden, panicking just because a student slipped off a cliff?" Kael glared sharply at Julius, making no attempt to hide his disbelief. "Gamma Julius, she did not slip. I saw it with my own eyes. Damon pushed her on purpose, then turned and wa

Iris took a deep breath before stepping into the Gamma estate. It was her father’s house, yet it felt like entering a battlefield.“I can do this,” she whispered to herself as she walked through the gate, ignoring the sinister, whispering glares from the guards. News of her disappearance alongside the Crown Prince had likely already spread like wildfire.Iris resisted the urge to look back, keeping her head held high even as her chest throbbed with a dreadful premonition.The moment she crossed the threshold of the main entrance, Julius was already waiting. His face was flushed crimson, radiating the raw fury he had been forced to suppress in the presence of Lucien and Kael."INSIDE!" Julius bellowed the second she stepped past the door, his voice booming so loudly that nearby servants scrambled out of sight.Iris walked in, doing her best to maintain a composure of quiet calm.In the central hall, Victoria leaned against a
