What he did with it would determine how much of the faction came down cleanly and how much required something else. Matteo appeared in the kitchen doorway. He looked at my face and then at Annalyn's and read enough from both to pull out the chair across from us and sit without asking for a summary. I turned the phone toward him. He read the key sections in under two minutes. His expression did not change dramatically. It settled into something very controlled. "The blood oath was never about her," he said finally. "No," I confirmed. He looked at me. "You made that oath at seventeen. Believing you were protecting the packs."

Kael turned. "You found something?" Rowan carefully placed the journal on the table. "The librarians searched all afternoon." He opened the brittle pages. "There are only three surviving references to the First Oath." Lord Garrick adjusted his spectacles. "I haven't seen that book in decades." Rowan began reading. > "When the First Alpha united the scattered packs beneath the Silver Moon, twelve bloodlines swore an eternal covenant to guard the realm against those who would rule through fear." The room fell silent.

I thought of the world that was currently waking up to a silence it didn’t understand. But as I felt that tiny, second heartbeat pulse against my palm, I didn’t feel like a fugitive. I didn’t feel like a victim of a global conspiracy. I felt like an Architect. The first book was about the blood. It was about the betrayal and the breaking of the old world. It was about the trauma of the glass and the roar of the mountain. But the second book? The one we were starting right now, in this quiet French valley? That book was going to be about the Home.

he murmured, eyes never leaving the class. Heat flared in her chest. He was forcing her to speak. And he knew she hated the spotlight. Jenna raised her hand reluctantly, her voice shaking. “That’s not… quite right. Blood oaths weren’t made to bind allies but to ensure loyalty through consequence. If broken, the punishment was death.” The class turned to look at her. A ripple of whispers spread. Kaelion straightened, his silver gaze flicking over the room. “Correct. Listen carefully. Some of you may learn something from her.”

I wanted to push him away actually, but I became soft-hearted at the thought of how he risked his life throwing himself in front of me to block bullets. However, my instinctive refusal still alerted him about my state of mind. He squinted his eyes, asking, "What did you hear just now?" I slowly looked up at him, "I heard everything since you guys walked in. Kent, they just said, that back on the ship at the Long's, it was you who violated me. Is it true?"

I don’t know if it was a slip of the tongue or if he meant to tell me about signing the book, but I didn’t miss what he said when he was reading the guys the riot act. “It is. You have two options. Sign with any pen you like, and you will be claiming your gifts from the Llewellyn line, or...” he looks at Phoenix, then me as he takes a long, deep breath and rubs his finger and thumb over his short beard. “If you sign your name in your blood, it will seal my blood oath and bind me to you. As you can see, the last twelve names all took the latter route.” He looks down at the book, which is still open in front of me. The names are dark red, almost black, and I don’t know how I didn’t notice it

Alphas were supposed to be at the top of the food chain, so they never took well to being ordered. “I’m sorry. I just need to make sure you keep it to yourself. The decision to accept or decline my offer will be yours alone. And if you accept, I will need you to make a blood oath.” “Hey, wait a minute—” “Please hear me out.” A blood oath was a dangerous thing. If Chase ever broke his promise, his death would be quick and painful. “Okay, fine. What do you need?”

"Nor will I harm you in any way. This I swear, bound by blood and sealed in blood." He gestured to the cut on his arm, the one he had made earlier to stain the sheets. "The blood has already been spilled to seal this oath. "Bound by blood, sealed in blood. I enter alive, and I leave only in death." I stared at him, stunned. The words of the oath echoed in my mind, powerful and ancient. Without thinking, I found myself repeating them. "Bound by blood, sealed in blood. I enter alive, and I leave only in death."

The blood oath was a bond among people, who swear their loyalty and confraternity to each other, connecting them through their blood. The bond allowed the tied ones to communicate through the mental conversations. I was going to be tied to the bond that all the soldiers, and guards share with the royal family.
