* Late at night, Layla woke up in a hospital bed, her surroundings dim and quiet. “Awake?” William’s voice was gentle, filled with concern. “Mm.” Layla nodded, but her eyes remained blank, staring at the ceiling, empty of any spark. William didn’t push her. He understood she needed time to process the grief. The silence of the hospital was oppressive, each passing second stretching endlessly.

The man lying on the bed looked nothing like the Alpha King I once knew. His once powerful shoulders were smaller now. His face was thin. His once sharp eyes were half-closed, as if even staying awake required all the strength he had left. Tubes lay across his body, connected to strange-looking wolf-made medical devices. His breathing came slow and shaky. A ball of pain lodged in my throat. He was dying. Really dying. Charles stood behind me. I felt the weight of his stare, but he said nothing. He did not need to. The silence in the room said everything.

On the day of my pyre, my body had been reassembled. The mortician was skilled. I looked… almost whole. For a moment, I studied the still figure laid out before the sacred flames. I had to admit— Death became me. I looked better than I had in years. No fear. No pain. No exhaustion carved into my bones. Just stillness. Peace. My parents came to see me off. Caden could not.

Charlie then said to the old lady, “Go and see your son. He is dying soon.” The old lady burst into tears when she heard this. She was also dizzy and almost fainted.
