He couldn't even take control of his personal life. "Kaiser," I heard dad's voice. He looked in a state of panic. "Hmm?" I asked. "This war? All of this? Please tell me what's happening. I can't understand anything," he asked. I gave him a sarcastic smile. "Dad, do you know about Mystic Shadows?" I chuckled. "Y...yes," he spoke, trembling in fear. "She is their alpha. The last wolf remaining," I responded in a firm tone.

He continued, his voice low and measured, "Amelia's… situation is more complicated than we thought. Far more complicated." He revealed a truth so shocking, so unexpected, that it left me breathless. Amelia hadn't been the victim of a random act of violence. She hadn't stumbled onto something she shouldn't have. Amelia had been a pawn in a much larger game, a game involving powerful players, dangerous secrets, and a conspiracy that reached far beyond the confines of our seemingly safe world. The insurgents, it turned out, were just one small piece of a much larger, more sinister puzzle. And I, unwittingly, was now a central player.

When we arrived at the house mother asked us to take her to their room at let her rest. Jason and I each poured a glass of dad’s bourbon and toasted him before plopping down. We sat in silence sipping on our drinks. What a fucked up day. Jason finally looked up from his glass. “Mia, what will we do? What will you do?” Truth was I didn’t know, but I’d have to think of something quick. No way I was going to be Alpha Austin’s Luna and watch my brother suffer. He had trained for years to be the next Beta. And all because I wouldn’t date the son of a bitch my father was now dead, my family and consequently Jason’s title of Beta was revoked, and I would be forced into a torturous arrangement.

I needed to slow this down because mother hood was something I wanted to wait for. "We got mated so quickly, and I'm still trying to figure out my abilities and-" I was interrupted by a knock at the door. It was Iris and he looked panicked. "What the hell Iris?! Someone better be fucking dying!" Holden yelled and slammed his hand hard on his desk causing me to jump. "Alpha, we have a problem. There has been drones sighted 30 clicks west of the house." Iris said. Drones? Should I tell him about the one by the lake today? Did it even matter if I said anything?

Alice declared. She rushed to Rihanna’s side, but before she could reach her, ten men entered the room. Dustin had seen them earlier, hiding around the palace. Now, he confirmed they were Alice’s men—each bearing a tattoo on their hand that read Smirara. He had heard stories of the Mafia Queen of Z City, and now he knew Alice was indeed that person. When Alice’s men stepped forward, Dustin blocked their path. “Try to take my wife, and I’ll blow your heads off!” he warned, aiming a gun he had taken from one of them earlier.

Elara asks. "I don't know," Alice admits. She wipes her eyes with her sleeve. "I have no family. No real friends. No savings. Lucas made sure I spent everything trying to impress him. I have nothing left." She looks at Elara with desperate eyes. "That's why I called you. I know we're not friends. I know you have no reason to help me. But I'm drowning. I need help." Elara studies Alice's face. This is the woman who murdered her. Who injected poison into Rachel's IV and watched her die. Part of Elara wants to let Alice suffer. Wants to watch her lose everything like Rachel lost everything.

“Shit.” From the tunnels above and below, the swarm descended. Drones—sleek, silver, endless—poured into the underbelly like locusts loosed from hell. Their glassy eyes burned red with Echo’s final command, each rotor shrieking like a wasp’s wings. Needled limbs glistened with venomous current, dripping sparks that hissed as they touched the steel.

"The next morning, I woke up with a horrible feeling in my gut. I knew something was wrong. I looked over at my bedside table, and sitting on top was a note. It was from my mother. She told me how sorry she was for leaving me, but she just couldn't handle it anymore. She apologized so many times in the note. She said she didn't want to leave me, but she had no choice. Halfway through, I stopped reading and ran out of my room and into my parents. I heard the bathtub running, and there was water on the floor. I ran into their bathroom to find my mother dead in the tub with slit wrists. There was so much blood. So much blood, Bunny." Alex broke down with a sob. Ash quickly pulled him into his a

His fingers twitched slightly at his sides, the only betrayal of the storm building within him. “Subject: Deceased. Adrium: Not detected.” The lead drone emitted a short, shrill beep, and the others responded with a synchronized retreat, lifting upward like vultures denied a feast. In seconds, they were gone, vanishing into the smog above the ruins. Tunde exhaled slowly. His eyes flicked to the crate. The shard glowed faintly in the shadows like a heart still beating.
