Chapter Twenty-oneDEMINMoonveil Lake was quiet enough to drown the thoughts in Demin's head.Demin stood at the edges of the lake, his hands buried in the pockets of his trousers as he watched the wind ruffle the water. The trees swayed gently. He had come here to be alone, away from the palace.Away from the questions he wasn't ready to answer.And most importantly, away from Rein.His wolf had other ideas.You should have kept her hand.Demin closed his eyes."No."You wanted to."I didn't."The wolf gave a low, almost amused growl inside him.You did.Demin opened his eyes and stared across the lake.Yesterday had been nothing. Rein reached towards his face, and instinct had him catching her hand before she touched him. He had released her and left.There was no reason to keep thinking over it.Except he had been thinking about it since.Bring her closer.Demin's jaw tightened."She's my brother's sister."That doesn't change what I want."You don't decide th

Chapter Twenty-threeDEMINAlpha Waseber sat behind his desk in the council room, reading a report that had come in that morning. The room was quiet except for the sound of paper turning and the occasional footsteps of guards walking outside the door.A knock came to the door."Come in."The door opened, and Drake entered the room, followed by a young woman. She carried herself with the calm assurance of someone used to being welcomed with respect, and her gaze briefly tracked over the room as she straightened to meet the Alpha's eyes."Alpha Waseber, the heiress of Silverpine Pack," Drake announced.The young woman stepped forward and bowed."Welcome to Ravenclaw, Elara," Waseber said, setting the report down to the side. He gave her a polite smile as he gestured to the space in front of his desk. "I trust your journey was comfortable.""It was, thank you, Alpha."Her voice was steady and controlled, her gaze flicking briefly over the four men in the room before settling bac

Chapter Twenty- FiveDEMIN"You sought to see me, Alpha?"Demin stood before Waseber as he waited for a response. He had been preoccupied with the affairs of the pack when the messenger had found him, and the thought of why he needed his attention left him puzzled."Yes. There is something that you need to know about our guests from Silverpine." Waseber gestured towards the chair opposite him. "Sit."Demin took the seat, giving him his attention as he told him the purpose of Elara's visit. Her father had proposed a betrothal between his daughter and Ravenclaw's Alpha heir, having hoped that it would benefit the relationship between their packs. Elara was aware of the arrangement and wished to go along with it. Should Ravenclaw refuse the proposal, then Silverpine would consider entering an alliance with another pack that was willing to accept the marriage.Demin listened intently as Waseber completed his statement before resting his forearms against his thighs."Isn't it Ravenc

Chapter Twenty-sevenDEMIN"Announce my presence."Standing outside Elara's doors, he clasped his hands behind his back. He had finished dealing with palace affairs and thought it was the perfect time to drop by to see the Silverpine heiress. The Waseber had asked him to spend time with her during her stay, and the more he thought about the marriage alliance proposal, the less he wanted to treat their guest with less courtesy."Yes, Alpha heir."The maid entered the room, leaving Demin to wait in the hallway. A few moments later, Elara appeared with the maid who followed behind, and her face lit up at the sight of Demin."Demin." She greeted him warmly. "It's good to see you.""I'm sorry for not paying you a visit soon," he replied, inclining his head. "I had a few palace matters I needed to attend to.""There's no need for apologies, Elara," he said, beaming at him. I know you have obligations in the palace. I'm even more surprised that you took time out of your schedule to co

Chapter Twenty- NineDeminDemin stepped inside his room, quickly shrugging off his robes and hanging them up. Thoughts of earlier flooded back into Demin's mind, how he had pulled Rein into his arms in an attempt to save her from getting hurt.He just couldn't get her out of his mind.How she wrapped herself around him, laying her head upon his chest. Her steady breathing was still echoed in his mind, and the calming feeling when she had confirmed that she was okay. He had acted without hesitation, and he didn't regret it. Yet, even after they had left the shooting centre, his mind kept drifting back to that brief moment he held Rein in his arms.As he had caught the metal stand falling, he had noticed a silver line across his wrist, just below his palm. It shocked him, but he hadn't had much of a chance to check it due to the urgency to get Rein away to safety.Demin turned his wrist over to inspect.The Raven Mark.He frowned. He knew exactly what it meant. For their pack, the Rave
