The cold metal pressed against my skin, a chilling reminder of what I carried—hope, fear, and the possibility of salvation. My lips curled into a grin, but it was crooked and tasted like ash on my tongue. “Don’t worry,” I said softly, voice barely above a whisper. “I won’t screw this up.”

The bloodline is not a curse, I realize. It is a question. And for the first time, I am ready to answer it on my own terms.

She kept her good hand on the wheel, while her broken arm rested in a sling made from a kitchen towel. "You’re bleeding, June," Lydia whispered. She reached out to touch the bruise on June’s neck, the shape of Silas’s hand still visible in a dark, purple ring. "I’m alive," June snapped.

How are you mixed up with people like that?" Lydia looked down at her stomach. The pulse was gone, replaced by a dull, heavy ache. "It’s the baby. The Voss family, they have something in their blood. It’s a mutation. Adrian called it an inheritance, but

One my father used to tell before bedtime like a ghost story. About a Luna born once in a generation. One who carries two bloodlines. one who, unless marked by force, cannot be controlled by any Alpha A chill snaked down my spine. I opened my mouth to ask the question forming like a storm in my chest, but he beat me to it. "And you, Lila... you came from noble blood on your father's side and rogue blood on your mother's side."

Entire clans have fallen not by sword or spell, but by forgetting where they came from.” Her eyes flicked to me. Brief. Surgical. I forced myself not to clench my jaw.

The man in front of me was Freddie Fleming, the victim's eldest brother. In my last life, he had led the charge and shoved me to the ground. He didn't listen when I tried to explain, and it was his blade that struck the first fatal wound. Freddie pulled up the transfer record on his phone. "Look for yourself.
