Chapter 31 Eleanor's POV Ethan still wasn't picking up his phone. I had called him twice already. Nothing. I stared at my screen for a few seconds before sighing and putting my phone away. Maybe he was busy. Maybe something had come up. Or maybe he was just terrible at checking his phone. Either way, I had spent enough time wondering about it. I had just gotten back from school, and all I wanted was to get to my dorm, find Amaya, and tell her everything about last night. Because if there was one person who had been waiting for this story, it was definitely Amaya. The moment I opened our dorm room door, I found her sitting on her bed with her laptop open. She looked up. Then her eyes immediately widened. "You're back!" I dropped my bag beside my bed. "Yeah." She closed her laptop. "Okay, sit down." I laughed. "Why?" "Because I have been waiting all day." "For what?" She stared at me like I had just asked the stupidest question imaginable. "Your date!" I burst out laughing. "Ama

Chapter 33 Unknown POV The night was unusually quiet. Too quiet. The narrow alley sat between two abandoned buildings, hidden from the busy streets beyond it. A single flickering light hung above the entrance, casting weak shadows across the cracked pavement. One by one, figures appeared. They didn't arrive together. They came separately, keeping their distance until they reached the center of the alley. There were six of them. Six people who had no reason to trust one another, yet had gathered for the same reason. Eleanor Bale. The last person arrived several minutes late. He walked into the alley wearing a dark coat, his face partially hidden beneath the hood. Everyone turned toward him. "You're late." "I had to make sure I wasn't followed." The tallest figure stepped forward. "Are you sure?" The man nodded. "No one followed me." Silence settled over them again. For several seconds, nobody spoke. Then a woman standing near the wall finally broke the silence. "She's awakening." T

Chapter 35 Alexander Varde POV The room was silent when I entered. Not the comfortable kind of silence. This was the kind that made every person sitting around the table watch the door a little too carefully. The meeting room was buried deep inside the Varde estate, away from the main house and the ordinary activities of the pack. Thick wooden walls surrounded us, old enough to have witnessed generations of decisions that had shaped our family. Six elders were already seated around the long table. I took my place at the head. "Let's begin." Nobody spoke. I looked around the room. These were men and women who had served the pack for decades. Some had advised my father before me. Others had watched me grow from a young wolf into the Alpha I eventually became. They knew what power looked like. They also knew what happened when power was ignored. "The succession issue remains unresolved," I said. An older man named Marcus leaned forward. "Your son has been preparing for this his entire

Chapter 37 Ethan's POV I couldn't sleep. I lay on my bed staring at the ceiling, replaying my father's words over and over again. Stay away from her. I closed my eyes. It didn't work. The moment I did, Eleanor appeared in my mind. Her smile. Her laugh. The way she had looked at me when I picked her up for our date. The way we had sat in the car afterward, singing along to music and laughing at ourselves. My wolf stirred. Mate. "I know." She needs us. I sighed. "I know that too." But knowing didn't make the situation easier. If anything, it made it worse. I sat up and rubbed my hands over my face. How was I supposed to convince my father? How could I make him understand that Eleanor wasn't her family? That she hadn't chosen the Bale name? That she hadn't chosen the feud? She hadn't even known what she was when I met her. She was just Eleanor. The girl who walked into my life without warning and somehow made everything feel different. I grabbed my phone. Her name was still near

Chapter 39 Eleanor's POV The last day of the school term couldn't have come fast enough. The moment our final class ended, I practically rushed out of the building with the biggest smile on my face. Spring break. Finally. No early mornings. No rushing between classes. No professors talking about assignments. No sitting in the library pretending I wasn't secretly checking my phone every few minutes. I was going home. And, more importantly, I was going to see Ethan. I had been thinking about him constantly since his strange message. Goodnight, Eleanor. That was all he'd sent me. Four words. It had been bothering me ever since. Something about the message had felt different from him. Ethan wasn't usually distant with me, and after our date, I couldn't understand why he'd suddenly become so difficult to reach. But now that school was over, I had another reason to be excited. Ethan had told me that his family lived in the same state as mine. Which meant there was a chance I'd actually s
