Mate's Vengeance
She'd learned the layout of the main floor, identified security patterns, begun to understand the household dynamics.
And she'd seen him. Alpha Kael Stormridge, in the flesh.
Marcus's killer.
Sera pulled out her phone and scrolled to the photos she'd saved-pictures of Marcus, smiling and alive. The evidence of his murder. The anonymous note that had started everything.
She needed to remember. Needed to keep the hatred sharp and clear.
But when she tried to summon rage, tried to feel that burning need for vengeance...
Nothing. Just exhaustion and emptiness.
Her wolf was silent. Her heart was numb. She was a weapon, yes, but weapons didn't feel. They just cut.
