“Why wouldn’t I be the heir? I’m Alpha Griffith’s daughter.” The student shifted nervously from foot to foot, his cheeks reddening beneath my glare—clearly, he was being serious. “Adrian Almond is the top warrior at camp with Eric gone,” he said. “And… Well, don’t take this the wrong way, Rowena, but you’re a girl.”

"It asked nothing of me thirty years ago, when I met my first Luna. It has asked nothing of me tonight." Somewhere behind her, Aeloria heard a cup hit the floor and shatter. No one moved to clean it up. Every face in that hall was turned toward the second-tier table, dozens of Alphas and dignitaries who had traveled days for polite diplomacy now watching something considerably less polite unfold in front of them. "I am Kaelen Ashveil," he said, "once Alpha King of Blood Moon Pack, and I claim Aeloria Aurora as my fated mate, before this hall, before this moon, and before any law or lineage that would tell me otherwise."

Elena muttered, “Why are you looking for Alpha Elijah?” “He is my husband; that's why I'm looking for him; why isn't he here?” My legs gave up on me, I fell to the floor and Elena looked at me with pitiful eyes. “Lycan! Tristan!” Travis and Diana ran to help me stand on my feet. “What's going on?” The royal physician questioned. “Queen Aurora claims that the Lycan isn't her husband and Alpha Elijah is her husband,” Elena explained to the physician in a low tone.

Blood dripped from both of them now, their roars echoing through the fortress. Meanwhile, Adrian and Nero reached the cells. “Adrian! Corin hissed from the shadows, startling them. Quick, he’s in here!” Adrian’s eyes widened. “You, why are you helping us?” Corin didn’t hesitate. “Because I’m done watching with this people, and Kaelen is my fucking brother.” Nero kicked the cell open. Kaelen lay motionless inside, barely breathing. “Kaelen! Adrian knelt, shaking him gently. Hey, it’s me. It’s Adrian.”

If Lucian found Rowan first, I didn’t know what would happen. I knew Lucian. I knew his heart. But I also knew his instincts. He was an Alpha King. And Rowan was a slave, a son of a murderer who had somehow become his sister’s mate and the father of her unborn child. That was a secret powerful enough to destroy everything if it landed in the wrong hands. “Are we close?” Elara whispered. “Almost,” Alma replied. I glanced at her “How are you feeling?” “I’m fine.” “That’s not what I asked.” I said

I didn't read much about it because there were just a few records of it. “There's no need for bloodshed, Lord Damon. We're not here to kill Rowan,” he paused. My eyes widened again. How…how did he know my name? My grip around my mom tightened and she caressed my hair gently as tears rolled down her eyes. “We're just here to claim him.” The dangerous reality of my world was growing worse each passing second. All these years, so there were powerful and dangerous forces that had been waiting for me to awaken. “We won't give you our son!” Dad spat coldly.

“We make sure our best warriors are posted throughout the palace. No one enters the war wing unless they’re cleared by me personally. That includes servants. That includes the Alphas. This war room becomes locked once they arrive.” Lady Rowan nodded. “Do we host them together?” “Yes,” Aurora said. “Keep them close. The more time they spend under our eyes, the less they can do behind our backs.” “Alpha Mauren won’t be an issue,” Aries added. “He’s a political man, not a fighter. But if Emily comes…” He trailed off. Everyone was thinking the same thing. If Emily came, she wouldn’t come for peace. Aurora looked down at the table, her voice barely above a whisper. “She’s hiding something.”

She stepped closer, her face filled with pure hatred for me as she continued speaking. "You know exactly what you've done, so don't you dare play the innocent card now. Alpha Monroe is sending me as an offering to that monster Zirael because of you! Because you're mated to his sons!" The words felt like I had been punched out of breath as I staggered back a bit. I had discovered the mate bond just days ago, that invisible thread that linked me to both Dion and Alistar. I had been so hopeful, thinking that surely they would have to accept me now. That the Moon Goddess herself had chosen me for them.

I told her the way you tell a friend something you have been carrying, half complaining and half marveling, the words coming easier than I expected because I had been turning all of it over privately for days and saying it out loud was, in its own way, a relief. I told her that Rowena was not simply an Eastern Clan slave with an unusual gift. That according to Aveline's people, who had heard it from Aveline herself, Rowena was the lost heir of the Northern Clan. The Crimonfrost bloodline. The line that had supposedly ended twenty years ago when the Northern Clan fell. I told her about the prophetic dreaming, three nights of it, detailed enough to predict an entire military attack down to the

For a moment everything went white, then red. “What does that mean?” I asked, my voice choked with anger. Herman hesitated. “Wolves have predestined bonds,” the wizard explained. “They’re called mates. They’re partners chosen by their damned goddess. If Arsel believes Elaine is his mate, he’ll never hand her over.” The broken glass finished shattering in my hand. Darwin didn’t move, but Herman did. He took a small step back, and I laughed. It wasn’t a loud laugh. It was worse. It was low, quiet, almost amused.
