He’ll lose the pack and his freedom." ​"It’s not Julian I’m worried about," Elias muttered as the doors chimed for the lobby. ​The lobby of Blackwood Global was a chaotic swirl of glass and panicked employees. News of the "System Blackout" on the executive floor had trickled down. Security guards were scurrying like ants in a disturbed nest. ​As I stepped out, the air changed. ​It wasn't Julian’s scent. It was something sharper. Something like jasmine rotting in the sun.

" Blackwood. The name echoed in Aria's mind like a bell. She knew that name. Everyone in the city knew that name. The Blackwood family was old money the kind of wealth that transcended normal understanding. Real estate, technology, pharmaceuticals, shipping they had fingers in every pie, and their influence extended into political circles at the highest levels. Charles Blackwood had built an empire, and his grandson, Damien, was continuing and expanding the legacy. Damien Blackwood. Aria had seen his face in business magazines, on the news, in those tabloid articles about the city's most eligible bachelors. Impossibly handsome, ruthlessly intelligent, and notoriously private. He'd taken over

Dominic had handed over the management of a cosmetics company under the Blackwood family to Evan, considering that his mother was Dominic's aunt. However, Evan was not cut out for business and preferred a life of i

“I have reason to believe that that Gamma is still alive. And there’s a chance he’s the one leading this new organized rogue faction.” Mason swore again. “That Gamma’s name is Pierce.” “…oh no,” muttered Mason. “What is it?” I asked. “She mentioned a wolf there. Said his name was Pierce. From Blackwood.” I closed my eyes. “Mason,” I said quietly. “Blackwood was disbanded years ago.” Another silence. This one hung heavy. And then he whispered, “Shit.” I turned back to the table, staring at the manifest like it might change. “Do you know anyone nearby? Someone we could call?”

I watched as the metal warped, the vows of eternal love melting into meaningless slag. Ash. The next day, I arrived at the Sterling Covenant office right on time. We had only just opened, but we'd already had inquiries from a few smaller packs. "Morning, Hazel," Lydia greeted me excitedly. "Guess what? We've got a big fish on the line!" "What kind of big fish?" I asked, setting down my briefcase and taking the coffee she offered. "The Blackwood family," Lydia whispered, her eyes wide with something close to reverence. "One of the founding families of New Moon City. Their patriarch, Rhys Blackwood… they call him the Lion of New Moon City. One of the last true Arch-Alphas. A living legend."

I made sure Laura and Kevin arrived home safely, Aria decided to stay over to provide emotional support, and with the hawk’s eye security around the property: Bullet proof drones that attack as a hive, navy seals, martial artists, even hired brutal ex-convicts— the house was an impregnable fortress, even an ant wouldn't go undetected. After the hacking attempt at the hospital, my instinct flared to code red ever since, because the Blackwoods were unpredictable. Striking when you least expected it, I couldn't take chances. Tommy wanted to follow me down here, but I declined. He knew enough already, and I refused to be an open book, all because I was being a coward and afraid of meeting the Bl

Lord Vance swallowed hard, his Adam's apple bobbing frantically. His posture stuttered for a second before he scrambled to unroll his thick, leather-bound ledger documents across the wood. "A… Alpha Blackwood," Vance stammered, his terrified eyes darting to the sprawling tactical maps on my wall before he finally found his footing. "My pack... the Obsidian Ridge... we control the deepest underground salt and sulfur mines in the eastern basin. We can provide the Vanguard with a continuous, tax-free supply of pure sulfur to fuel your blacksmithing forges and your tactical explosive weapon production. Furthermore, we boast a highly specialized unit of subterranean trackers—wolves who are comple
