Raven’s POVThe palace was suffocating.Days passed in a blur, each one stretching longer than the last. I barely left my room, only slipping out when I was sure no one would see me.Not that it mattered.No one was looking for me.They hadn’t left.They were still here. Somewhere in this massive place, grieving their father, dealing with politics, handling whatever chaos came with the death of a king.I told myself that was why they hadn’t come.They were busy. Distracted.But deep down, I knew the truth.They’d forgotten me.Not once in the endless stretch of days did any of them come to check on me, not even to make sure I was alive.It shouldn’t have hurt.But it did.The bond throbbed like an infected wound, the connection still pulsing beneath my skin — a constant reminder that no matter how much they hated me, I was still theirs.“Ara,” I whispered, curling my knees to my chest as I sat on the cold floor. “Are you still there?”My wolf had been quiet for days, her presence fain

Rowen’s POVI woke up gasping, my body shaking like a leaf as the pain finally started to fade.The last thing I remembered was the intense pain, my brothers chasing after me. The agony had been unbearable, like every bone in my body was breaking and resetting, carving the curse into my very soul.I lifted my head, feeling exhaustion sink deep into my bones. Ansel and Asher were both standing nearby, looking so worried.“You back?” Asher asked, his voice rough.I nodded, pushing myself up, but the second I tried to stand, I staggered.The connection to my wolf, Rome, felt wrong. Distant.Rome? I called out in my mind, my heart hammering.Nothing.The bond wasn’t gone — I could still feel him, like a faint pulse in the back of my head — but his presence had dimmed to almost nothing.Talk to me, I tried again, panic rising.Still nothing.I swallowed hard, rubbing at my chest like I could physically reach for him. The curse must have drained him — the power shift, the transfer of pain.

Rowen’s POV“AHHHHHHH!”The scream tore through the air, it was loud enough to wake up the dead.Noooo!!“What the fuck is going on?” I muttered as the sound echoed through the pack house. I hadn’t heard anything like it before — not from her. Not from Raven.I bolted out of my room, my heart pounding really hard, only to freeze when I reached the hallway.I couldn’t believe what I was seeing.Raven — our mate, was clawing at Ansel with everything she had. She looked wild, feral, her nails tearing into his skin, blood dripping down his chest. Her face was twisted with rage, her eyes burning with hatred so intense it made my wolf moan in sadness.But she was losing.She was too weak to fight Ansel, her body still wrecked from whatever Moon Shade had done to her. Yet, she didn’t stop fighting.She dodged one of Ansel’s swipes and sank her teeth into his neck, tearing into his flesh like an animal. Blood spilt down his collarbone, and Ansel roared in a fury, grabbing her by the hair and

Raven’s POVI stayed on the cold floor long after Ansel left, too broken to move. My body throbbed with pain, every lash and bruise screaming at me, but nothing hurt more than the ache in my chest.I am back.Back to the place I’d spent weeks trying to escape, I am just so stupid.And I was more shattered than ever.I curled into myself, swallowing sobs, afraid someone would hear me cry. I didn’t want to make another mistake. Didn’t want to give them a reason to come back in. My skin still burned from Ansel’s slap, and my heart hammered like it was trying to escape my ribs.I should have just died in that place.I should’ve let Kelvin kill me.Because now… now there was nothing left of me.I dragged myself to the bed eventually, biting my lip to keep from whimpering as I crawled onto the mattress. My limbs barely worked, and my whole body shivered from the cold sweat clinging to my skin.The sheets felt suffocating like they were swallowing me whole. I think I am getting sick.But I d

Ansel’s POVThe second Asher crossed the border, relief flooded through me like a wave. The bond we shared as brothers tightened, pulsing with relief, I could feel Asher’s emotion.He found her.But we weren’t out of this yet.I barely dodged Kelvin’s claws as he lunged, his teeth snapping dangerously close to my throat. He wasn’t running, he was fighting. And he was stronger than I expected, using powers I am sure no wolf should possess. But I am not a weakling; I am the alpha of the Crescent Silver Park.“You think you can just take her from me?” he snarled, landing a brutal punch to my ribs that made my bones shake. “She’s mine. I claimed her the second she stepped into my territory.”I wiped the blood from my mouth, laughing bitterly. “You didn’t claim anything. And I’m going to enjoy tearing you apart for touching what’s ours.”Kelvin’s eyes flickered with something sharp and knowing. “Ours, huh?” he said, circling me like a predator. “I wondered which one of you she belonged to.

Asher’s POVThat morning, we ran with other wolves from our pack, a very small army. If possible, we wanted this to be diplomatic, a simple conversation to settle the tension. But in my gut, I already knew it wouldn’t be that easy.I told myself I didn’t want to find Raven there. That it would be better if she wasn’t trapped in that corrupt pack. But the truth clawed at me like a wound I couldn’t close. I did want to see her. I wanted to know she was alive and breathing even if it broke me to see her in their hands.And at the same time, the thought of her being touched by those lowlifes made my blood boil. My mate, suffering in a place like this? It made me want to tear the entire pack apart with my teeth.We ran hard, the air heavy with tension, until dusk fell and we crossed the border into Moon-shade territory. The moment we did, something shifted.The place made my skin crawl.The trees were twisted. The ground was slick with mud, and the entire forest smelled wrong — metallic,
