Osiris

Orion was never one to show weakness, not to me, not to anyone. But before he left for Vegas, something was different. His usual armor, the one he wore so well, was cracked. And no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t do a damn thing to help him.

The look in his eyes—the weight he was carrying—haunts me even now as I sit in the war room, running my hands through my hair.

I think back to that conversation we had before he left.

“Are you sure you’re good to do this?” I asked him, watching him shove clothes into his duffel bag, his movements mechanical, almost lifeless.

Orion didn’t meet my eyes. “I don’t have a choice. Creed and Arkyn need me to get this shit sorted since I know Zane better. Besides, it’s not like I can sit here doing nothing while Zane’s out there.” His voice was tight, like he was trying to keep everything from spilling out.

I leaned against the doorframe, my arms crossed. “You’ve been off ever since you saw him, and now you’re heading straight into his territo

    EvaAs I walk into the council building, every step feels like my heart is going to beat right out of my chest. My palms are slick with sweat, and I can feel the tremble in my hands as I grip Sophia’s tiny one tightly. She clutches her teddy bear to her chest, wide-eyed, but calm. I’m anything but calm.I’m terrified.The thought of seeing Darius again—of standing in front of the council and having to plead my case—makes my stomach churn. I can still feel the weight of his threats hanging over me, even though Osiris and Nero have assured me they won’t let anything happen.But what if they can’t stop him? What if the council sides with him?I squeeze Sophia’s hand a little tighter, trying to ground myself. I can’t afford to think like that right now. I have to do this for her. For us. There’s no going back.“Mommy?” Sophia’s voice pulls me out of my spiral. She looks up at me, eyes full of trust. “Are we going to be okay?”I force a smile, nodding even though I’m not sure if I’m convin

    OsirisI follow Nero into the council’s chamber, trying to steady my breathing. My fists are clenched, knuckles white, and the anger boiling inside me is barely contained. Every time I think about Darius, about what he’s done to Eva, I want to tear him apart. But now isn’t the time for bloodshed. We need to make our case here, in front of the council, and ensure they understand just what kind of monster we’re dealing with.Nero’s beside me, his usual brooding expression firmly in place. He’s calm, at least outwardly, but I know he’s just as pissed as I am. He’s already warned me to keep my cool, but fuck, it’s hard when I think about that bastard crossing into our territory to try and take Eva back like she was his goddamn property.The council members are seated in their high-backed chairs, their faces cold and unreadable. I hate these meetings—the politics, the bullshit—but they’re necessary. If we want to keep Eva and Sophia safe, we need the council on our side.We approach the

    EvaSitting in the protection chamber at the council headquarters feels like being trapped in a pressure cooker. The cold stone walls press in around me, and the dim light barely penetrates the thick tension hanging in the air. I glance at Sophia, who’s sitting next to me, her small hands clutching her teddy bear as she swings her legs absentmindedly. She seems calm enough, but I can see the way her eyes dart around, searching for some kind of reassurance. And I’m supposed to be that reassurance.But I’m barely keeping it together.Nero and Osiris are in with the council now, discussing what comes next. After everything that’s happened with Darius, after everything I had to say in front of those cold, judgmental council members… I just want this to be over. I want to be free of Darius and his pack, free to finally live my life and raise Sophia without the constant threat of him looming over us like a dark cloud.I squeeze my hands into fists in my lap, my nails digging into my palms

    OsirisThe SUV moves through the dense forest, and I grip the steering wheel harder than I should, my knuckles turning white. Eva’s in the back, her eyes darting between me and Nero, her body tense like she’s bracing for a storm. I can feel it, too. The rage boiling beneath my skin, simmering, waiting for the right moment to explode. The motherfucker took her daughter. He crossed a line, and once we set foot on his land, all bets are off.Nero is in the passenger seat, quiet but focused, probably running through the plan in his head and relaying it to the warriors waiting for us. He’d been the one to calm Eva down when she wanted to storm Darius’ pack and get Sophia back herself, and thank fuck for that. We needed the council’s green light to hit him with everything we’ve got. After Nero laid it all out to them, they gave us the go-ahead, which means one thing: Darius is about to find out just how fucked he is.But Eva doesn’t want to wait. She’s on edge, practically buzzing with de

    OsirisDarius barely has time to react before I lunge at him, my fist connecting with his jaw with a satisfying crunch. He stumbles back, blood spilling from his mouth, but I don’t stop. I can’t. I grab him by the collar, slamming him into the pack house wall so hard the plaster cracks.“You fucking piece of shit,” I growl, my face inches from his. “You think you can lay your hands on her and get away with it?”Darius spits blood, glaring at me. “She’s mine. She’s my Luna. You have no right—”“I have every fucking right!” I roar, slamming him into the wall again. “You’re done, Darius. I promised you'd be dead if you touch her again, and I always fucking keep my promises.”Nero steps up behind me, his expression dark and lethal. “Get him outside, Osiris. We’re ending this right here.”I haul Darius toward where the rest of his pack is gathered, my grip like iron as I drag him behind me. Eva follows, her eyes wide, still in shock from everything that’s happening.His pack has gathered a

    EvaSophia’s small body feels like a featherweight in my arms as she sleeps, her soft breathing the only sound in the quiet of the SUV. My heart is racing, but for the first time in years, it’s not because of fear or anxiety. It’s because of the strangest sensation, something I haven’t felt in so long that I hardly recognize it.Relief.Darius is dead. He’s gone for good. He can never hurt me or Sophia again. We’re free.I lean back into the seat, my fingers still playing with Sophia’s hair as I look at the man who fought so hard to protect us, who did the unthinkable to save me and my daughter. There’s relief in knowing Darius is dead, knowing he can never come after us again. But the tension in Osiris’ body, the quiet rage simmering just beneath the surface—it scares me.He’s not okay. Not right now, at least.As the SUV pulls up to the pack house, I see Nero glance over at Osiris, his brows furrowed with concern. Nero kills the engine, and for a moment, no one says anything.I turn

    OsirisThe sun is warm against my back as I settle down on the picnic blanket with Sophia, the grass under us freshly cut and smelling sweet. I pull out a few sandwiches and juice boxes from the basket, laying everything out while she fiddles with her teddy bear beside me. I’ve never been this nervous in my entire life, not even when I went on the first date with Eva. Facing off against rogues, fighting in bloody pack battles—that’s the usual for me. But this? Asking a six-year-old for permission to marry her mother? That’s a whole new kind of nerve-wracking.Sophia grabs one of the sandwiches, nibbling at it as she watches me with those wide, curious eyes. She’s gotten used to me being around, which is a relief, but today is about more than just me being present. I need her blessing, because I’m not just asking Eva to be mine—I’m asking Sophia to trust me with both their lives.“So,” I start, leaning back on my hands, watching her carefully. “I wanted to talk to you about something

    OrionNero’s office has the kind of quiet tension you can feel in your bones, the kind that comes after months of chasing shadows and uprooting every twisted part of that ring. Osiris and I are settled across from him, listening intently as he wraps up the conference call with Arkyn and Creed. My brother’s voice is steady as he discusses the last few details. It’s taken months to dismantle, but here we are, finally piecing everything back together.“Look,” Creed’s voice crackles over the line, blunt as ever, “everyone’s been dealt with. But Legacy’s name hasn’t come up in any interrogation or confession, not even once. He’s protected. Everyone’s too fucking scared to name him.”Nero sighs, fingers rubbing at his temples. “He’s the one wild card. Every single person higher up has been captured, but Legacy? Silence. And we all know silence from someone that powerful isn’t accidental.”“Leave Legacy to me,” Arkyn’s voice cuts in, dark and simmering with barely contained fury. “He’s still

    OrionThe cool earth beneath us grounds me as I lay there, my arm draped over Zane, feeling the steady rise and fall of his chest. His scent—apples and something inherently him—fills the air around us, mingling with the sharp, raw scent of our freshly marked bond. The ache of his mark on my nape throbs in time with my heartbeat, a constant reminder that he’s real, that he’s here.I trail my fingers down his arm, feeling the warmth of his skin, the familiar shape of him that I thought I’d lost forever. Everything about this feels surreal, like I’ve stepped into a dream I can’t bear to wake from.“We should probably… head back,” I murmur, though the thought of leaving this spot, leaving him even for a second, feels impossible. But there’s a part of me that knows we can’t hide here forever, that we owe it to my family, to everyone who believed Zane was gone, to know the truth. “They’ll want to know what happened.”Zane chuckles, a low, familiar sound that makes something tighten in my c

    OrionI hold him, my arms wrapped so tightly around him I’m half-worried I’ll break him. But I can’t let go. My mind’s struggling to process this, and I keep expecting to blink and find the empty forest around me, cold and alone again. But he’s here, solid and warm in my arms, and his scent fills the air—apples, fresh and grounding, just like it always was. Just like home.“Ri,” he murmurs, his hand moving to rest against my chest, fingers splayed over my heart like he’s memorizing the feel of me. “You look like you’re seeing a ghost.”“Maybe I am,” I admit, my voice low, rough. “I don’t know if I’m going to wake up any second and realize this is all just… wishful thinking.”I pull back slightly, my eyes searching his face, taking in every detail, every line and scar I’d memorized so long ago. My fingers tremble as they brush over his jaw, his cheek, his lips, as if I’m trying to convince myself this isn’t some twisted trick. “You’re… you’re really here,” I murmur, my voice catching

    ZaneMy eyes flutter open, and I find myself surrounded by mirrors, an endless maze of reflections that stretch in every direction. I blink, disoriented, confusion settling in as I try to make sense of where I am. The last thing I remember is Orion’s hand tightening around my neck, the darkness closing in as everything faded away. So why am I here? Why am I … still here?A soft voice, melodic and soothing, echoes behind me. “Welcome, Zane.”I turn slowly, my eyes widening as I see her. She’s walking toward me, an ethereal glow surrounding her, golden light radiating from every step. Her long, flowing blonde hair cascades over her shoulders, and a beautiful gown drapes around her in waves, moving as if it’s part of the light itself. Her eyes are a shade of gold that feels ancient, otherworldly, yet warm. A black teardrop pendant hangs from her neck, glinting softly in the glow that envelops her.My heart skips a beat as realization dawns, and my knees buckle, pulling me to the floor.

    OrionThe path to Natasha’s hideout is a blur, every step a pulse of barely controlled rage. The air hums with the charge of dark magic, a twisted energy that beckons me, taunting me. My hands tremble with the beast’s fury, simmering just beneath my skin, but I haven’t let it loose yet. Not fully. There’s a strange clarity to my anger—a focus that makes every sense sharper, every movement precise.The moment I reach the edge of the hideout, I don’t stop to think. I kick down the door, wood splintering under the force of my boot, and I step inside, feeling every ounce of anger, every piece of heartbreak, flood through me like a dam breaking. The witches turn, eyes wide with shock, but I don’t give them a chance to scream.The first one goes down without a sound, my hand gripping her neck as I lift her off the ground. She thrashes, her mouth opening in a silent plea, but I don’t hesitate. I twist, the snap echoing through the room, and drop her to the floor like the insignificant piece

    OrionI’m trapped, locked inside my own body as I watch my fists swing, my legs move, every calculated hit landing with ruthless precision. But it’s not me—not really. I can’t stop it. Can’t control it. All I can do is watch from somewhere deep inside, helpless as I fight against the people I swore to protect.Nero’s face twists in pain as my fist connects with his ribs. Osiris tries to grab me from the side, but I counter, landing a brutal blow to his shoulder, hearing the sickening crunch. They’re all holding back—I can feel it in their strikes, in the way they hesitate just before their fists meet flesh. They’re trying to save me, trying to fight me without hurting me. But I don’t feel that same mercy. Whoever is controlling my body… they’re enjoying this.Two Alphas should have me on my knees by now, but Natasha planned this perfectly. She knew they wouldn’t give it everything; she counted on it. And the part of me that’s still here, watching, feels every bit of the twisted ple

    ZaneThe past three days have been a hell I can barely stomach. I’ve been confined to Nero’s territory, shackled by suspicion, and only allowed out of the locked room to help strategize. And I am trying—I’m trying everything I can think of. But it’s never enough. No matter what I say or how much I beg them to let me help, they’re always watching me, waiting for some slip that proves them right.Today, it’s worse. Nero had used his Alpha Sight on me, sifting through memories and thoughts, and I didn’t fight him. I let him dig, let him see everything, hoping he’d find something that could give us an edge. But there was nothing—nothing useful, anyway. Just more dead ends.Nova’s been working nonstop, her face growing more exhausted with each passing hour, trying spell after spell, looking for anything that could point us to Orion’s location. The tension is mounting, everyone on edge, barely able to look at each other without a fight breaking out.I’m pacing the war room, barely hearing

    ZaneThe sound of heavy footsteps echoes in the hallway outside my locked room, and I know it’s Nero before he even steps inside. There’s a weight to his presence, a dark edge that fills the space long before he even opens the door. When the lock clicks and the door swings open, he’s standing there, arms crossed, his expression a storm of anger and something I can’t quite read.He doesn’t say anything at first, just stares at me, and I feel the hostility radiating off him like heat. He’s still angry—hell, probably furious—and I know exactly why. This isn’t just about what’s happening now. It’s about everything I did to Orion, every lie, every betrayal.“Start talking,” he finally says, his voice low and controlled, but I can tell it’s taking every ounce of his restraint not to rip into me right here and now.I take a breath, trying to steady myself, and meet his gaze. There’s no use in holding anything back now. It’s time for him to know the truth—the whole, brutal truth.“She’s goin

    ZaneThe jet touches down with a low rumble, and I can already feel the tension in the air as we approach Nero’s territory. This is Leonetti land, and stepping onto it feels like walking into the lion’s den. I know the reception I’m about to get isn’t going to be friendly.As soon as the door opens and I step out, the familiar scent of pine and earth fills my senses. But that sense of home is quickly overshadowed by the heavy tension that hangs in the air like a storm waiting to break. Nero is already waiting for us at the landing site, and the second he lays eyes on me, his expression darkens.Before I can react, he’s moving toward me, his eyes blazing with fury. Every muscle in his body is tensed, ready to tear me apart, and for a second, I wonder if I’ll even survive the next few minutes.“Zane!” he snarls, his voice echoing across the open space. “You’ve got some fucking nerve showing your face here.”I don’t move. I can’t. I’ve expected this, and part of me knows I deserve it. Bu
