Ronan stared down at the small clearing—just a hunting post, maybe a scouting outcrop—and felt his gut twist. Blackened earth. Splintered trees. A body still smoldered, curled in on itself like it had died screaming. Another lay farther back, half-shifted, jaw locked in a final snarl. Ronan didn’t know his name. Didn’t need to. This wasn’t just a fight. This was a message. Dax swore. Loud and raw. “What the fuck did this?”

I played my part, just as Kael played his. The celebration wore on, but the fracture was there, hidden beneath the laughter and the song. A tiny, hairline crack in the foundation of our world. And as I watched Kael raise a tankard in a toast to his Alpha, his expression one of perfect, unwavering devotion, I knew with a chilling certainty. The most dangerous enemy was not at the gates. He was standing in the heart of our home, wearing the face of a friend. The crown on my head had never felt so heavy, or so much like a chain.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend?” Caliste mused in her head. Lena looked around the room, she could see that people hadn’t stopped staring, some with longing and others with envy. She was used to the attention, but sometimes, she just wished that they would treat her as though she were a normal person.
