LIANA’S POV

The air felt stifling as I sat in the principal’s office, flanked by Asher and Callum. Their presence didn’t do much to comfort me; if anything, it made me more nervous. The room smelled faintly of polished wood and coffee, but I couldn’t focus on anything but the unfamiliar environment I’d been thrown into.

This wasn’t just any school—it was a shifter’s school, a place for werewolves who hasn’t shifted like me. A school meant to teach us control, discipline, and strength. Yet here I was, feeling anything but strong.

The principal, a graying man with sharp eyes that seemed to see too much, leaned back in his chair, observing me with a mix of curiosity and formality. He had greeted Asher and Callum with familiarity, their exchange filled with subtle nods and small talk about Reed.

“Reed couldn’t make it?” the principal asked, his tone casual but laced with interest.

“He’s busy with work,” Callum replied curtly. “You know how he is.”

The principal chuckled softly. “Of cours

    RAIDEN’S POVThe morning air was cold against my skin as I sat up in bed, rubbing the sleep from my eyes. My wolf, Fang, stirred within me, restless and hyped. It was unusual for him to be this way so early in the morning, especially considering everything we’d been through in the past two weeks. But I brushed it off as his way of coping, perhaps convincing himself that life wasn’t all that bleak.I threw off the sheets and got to my feet, stretching. My mind replayed fragments of dreams I couldn’t quite piece together. There was a feeling I couldn’t shake—a tug in my chest, almost like an itch that wouldn’t go away. I shook my head, pushing the sensation aside. Today was just another day, and I didn’t have time for cryptic emotions.After a quick shower, I dressed in my usual attire—black jeans, a dark grey t-shirt, and a leather jacket. As I stood in front of the mirror brushing my hair, my wolf, Fang, hummed with excitement. “Calm down,” I muttered under my breath. He responded wi

    MADDOX The morning air carried a sharp, unyielding chill as I stepped out of the car and into the dense forest. The message from my lieutenant had been cryptic, but the urgency in his tone told me enough. Something was wrong.The scent of blood—though faint—lingered in the air. My boots crunched against the frost-bitten grass as I approached the scene. Ahead, the cluster of my men stood rigid, their faces tense and eyes wary. When they saw me, they straightened further, nodding in silent acknowledgment of my presence.“What do we have here?” I asked, my voice cutting through the stillness like a blade.My lieutenant, Marcus, stepped forward, pointing to the figure sprawled on the ground. The man’s lifeless body was splayed awkwardly, his eyes frozen wide open in terror. His neck bore deep bruises, the tell-tale marks of strangulation. Yet there were no claw marks, no bite wounds—nothing that indicated the work of a werewolf or even a rogue.I crouched beside the body, my mind racing.

    KADE’S POVThe room was dimly lit, the flickering flames in the hearth casting dancing shadows across the mahogany walls. My study, though vast and adorned with trophies of war, felt suffocating. It was very much still moon but my study was very much draped in darkness as I loved it. The soft rustle of papers on my desk blended with crackling of firewood, but nothing could drown the storm brewing in my chest.I leaned back in my chair, my robe barely clinging to my shoulders, exposing the deep scars etched across my chest—reminders of battles fought and enemies conquered. My fingers toyed with the rim of my glass, the amber liquid within barely touched.She was out there. Somewhere. The girl. Her face haunted me, like a ghost whispering though the folds of my mind. I didn’t know her name, but I’d memorized every detail of her picture. The curve of her jaw, the defiance in her eyes, and the birthmark on her neck—a perfect crescent moon. It was maddening. She was indeed the key I’ve bee

    CALLUM’S POVThe car purred softly as we pulled into the underground parking lot of our company. I gripped the steering wheel loosely, letting the silence between Asher and me stretch for a few moments. He was the first to break it, naturally.“Do you think she’ll be okay?” His voice carried a hint of concern, though he tried to mask it with his usual calm demeanor. I knew exactly who he was talking about. Liana. Her first day at school. I leaned back in the seat, pretending not to care. “She’ll survive.”“You could at least pretend to care, Callum.”I turned to face him, raising a brow. “Why? She’s the one who got everyone upset and irritated with her crap about her going back to Raiden if he begged better. Let her figure it out on her first day at school on her own. Maybe she’ll finally understand that not everything revolves around her little tantrums.”Asher sighed, running the back of his neck. “You’re so emotionally constipated, it’s almost impressive.”I shrugged, throwing the

    REED’S POVThe office reeked of tension and adrenaline. The moment that man stammered his way into the room, pale and trembling. I knew something was terribly wrong. But nothing, absolutely nothing, could have prepared me for what we found on the thirty-fifth floor.The room was in chaos—glass shards from display cases littered the floor, alarms blaring in the distance, and a faint, metallic scent of blood lingered in the air. My gut twisted as I scanned the destruction, my eyes locking on the empty pedestal in the centre of the room.The silver blade. It wasn’t just any blade—it was the blade. A weapon forged with the raw power of the moon’s forces, said to be capable of slaying any supernatural creature, no matter their strength. It could strip an alpha of their power with a single strike, severing bonds and destroying the essence of the wolf within. Its origin were shrouded in mystery, but one thing was clear: it was the most dangerous artifact in existence, and now it was gone.“

    LIANA’S POVI watched as the tension in the room continued to increase. Reed stood in the middle of the principal’s office like an alpha commanding his pack, his presence making everyone else seem small, fragile even. He was seething, his jaw clenched tight, his hands fisted at his sides as he loomed over the trembling principal. It was impossible to reconcile this version of Reed with the man who had avoided me yesterday, the same one who had refused to meet my eyes at breakfast this morning. But now… now he stood before me, ready to tear the world apart because someone had hurt me. The principal’s voice wavered as he tried to explain. “I-I had no idea such an incident would occur. I’ve already called the girls responsible. They’ll be here shortly to apologize.”“You called them to apologize?” Reed’s voice was low, dangerous, and laced with venom. “You think an apology fixes this?”The principal shrank back, his face pale as he stumbled over his words. “I-it’s procedure, Mr. Benne

    SERAPHINE’S POV I sat in my office, my hands working methodically as I mixed herbal extracts into small vials. Healing was a task I had always found solace in—a task that demanded focus and helped quiet the noise in my head. Silver Crest Academy, with all its bustling chaos, gave me purpose. Today, however, the usual hum of my work felt disrupted, like the air itself was charged with something unusual. “Have you heard? Three identical triplets just arrived at the academy,” one of the younger healers murmured as she passed by my door. I rolled my eyes, brushing off the comment. Students and staff were always enamored with gossip, especially when it involved anything remotely dramatic. I had no time for distractions. There were too many responsibilities on my shoulders, and I couldn’t afford to indulge in idle talk.Still, when I saw Raiden walking briskly past my office moments later, my instincts sharpened. He wasn’t just walking—he was practically running, his face set with tensio

    REED’S POVThe drive home stretched on, each second dragging as my mind spiraled deeper into the chaos that had become my reality. The hum of the car engine was the only sound, blending with the faint whispers of Liana’s soft breathing. My grip on the steering wheel was vice-like, my knuckles whitening under the strain. It felt like if I let go, even for a second, everything would fall apart—both the car and my sanity.I risked another glance at her, curled up in the passenger seat. Her hair framed her face like a halo, the gentle rise and fall of her chest so steady, so calm, it was maddening. How could she sleep after what had happened? How could she find peace in a world that seemed hellbent on tearing her apart?I forced my gaze back to the road, the memory of her limping figure still fresh in my mind. Her ankle had been twisted, swollen beyond reason, and the pain in her eyes when she tried to take even a single step… It was unbearable. She hadn’t cried, though. Not once. That st

    FOUR MONTHS LATERThe morning sun streamed through the sheer white curtains, casting a golden glow over the grand dining hall. The long wooden table was set with an elaborate spread—pancakes drizzled with honey, fresh berries, and a steaming pot of coffee. The scent of roasted bacon and buttered toast wafted through the air, making my stomach grumble in anticipation. I leaned back in my chair, rubbing my swollen belly as I listened to the chatter around me. It had been four months since everything changed—four months since I had finally found my place, my home, my family. Reed sat to my right, his hand lazily tracing circles on my wrist as he spoke with Callum and Asher. My husband. The words still felt surreal, as if saying them would wake me from a dream. The mate bond between us had only grown stronger since our wedding, the kind of connection I once thought I would never have. “Callum can you please hand her another plate, it’s been five minutes since she asked for it,” Reed bl

    ELIANA’S POVThe first thing I felt was warmth.Not the suffocating heat of fear or the numbing cold of rejection—just a steady, comforting warmth. It wrapped around my hand, grounding me before my mind could even piece together where I was.Slowly, I forced my eyes open.Blurry. Unfocused. The light overhead was too bright, making me wince. I blinked rapidly, willing my vision to adjust.Where am I? The ceiling above me was a bit familiar. The room smelled different, too—clean, with a faint hint of something I couldn’t quite place. Not the musky, indifferent scent of the packhouse I had come to despise. Then where…?And then it hit me. The pain. The sharp, unbearable pain that had gripped my body before I collapsed. My breath hitched as the memories flooded back—the searing agony, my vision darkening at the edges, the sound of my name being called in panic. Reed. Asher. My hand shot to my stomach. Still round. Still full. A shuddering breath escaped me. My baby. My baby was s

    MALCOLM’S POVThe air in the room was suffocating.Not because of the space—we had more than enough of that in this damn house—but because of the weight of everything pressing down on us. The truth. The guilt. The realization that we had shattered something that could never fully be put back together.Callum and I talked on the way back home, but nothing could’ve prepared us for what we were walking into. Eliana was upstairs, unconscious. Reed had carried her in like she was the most precious thing in the world, like losing her would rip his soul apart. And it would.Because of us.Because we had believed what we wanted to believe. Because we had ignored the truth. Because we had taken the pieces of a story that suited our anger and ran with it—dragging Reed down with us. And now? Now, all we could do was sit in this damn living room, suffocating in our own regret while Asher paced like a man on the verge of shattering. His hands ran through his hair, gripping at the strands. His

    REED’S POVI didn’t think. I didn’t hesitate. I didn’t wait for permission. The moment I saw her—Eliana, crumpled in the doorway, her body trembling, her skin pale and damp with sweat—everything else ceased to exist.I was at her side before my mind could even catch up, scooping her into my arms. She was so light. Too light.Her breath was uneven, shallow, her body barely responding.“Asher,” I barked, my voice tight with urgency. “We’re taking her out here.”He was already ahead of me, moving fast, clearing the way as I carried her through the castle halls. I didn’t care about the whispers, the wide eyes of pack members watching us go. I didn’t give a damn about their judgment or their curiosity. They had failed her. They had stood by while she was beaten, humiliated, starved. And now, she was barely clinging to life because of them. I would not fail her too. We reached the car, and I slid into the backseat with her cradled against me. Her head lolled against my chest, her face

    ELIANA’S POVPain.It started as a dull ache, twisting deep in my stomach. I barely noticed it at first. My body had endured so much these past months—hunger, exhaustion, bruises, the sharp sting of words meant to break me. What was one more pain added to the pile?I thought maybe it was the weight of my dress, the heavy fabric pressing against my skin. That had to be it.I forced myself to stand, my fingers trembling as I reached for the laces of the gown. Each breath I took felt shallow, strained, but I ignored it. I just needed to change. Get comfortable. Then the pain would go away. I peeled off the dress, my breath catching as the cool air kissed my overheated skin. My body ached everywhere, my muscles screaming in protest. Slowly, I slipped into a loose gown, something softer, something that didn’t suffocate me. But the pain didn’t stop. I pressed a hand to my stomach. My heart pounded against my ribs. This was different. A sharp, searing pain shot through me, knocking the

    REED’S POVI didn’t know what to do.My body felt too heavy, my mind too loud. I wanted to scream, to rip at my skin until I felt something other than this suffocating regret. But nothing would change. No matter how much I hurt, no matter how much I wanted to turn back time, I couldn’t undo what I’d done.She hated me.I’d called her a whore.I’d let my rage speak louder than reason, and now I had lost her in a way that I wasn’t sure I could ever fix. Eliana had always been strong, but the woman I had just seen—this new version of her—she was unshakable. And I had pushed her there. I had driven her to the point where she didn’t just refuse to listen to me; she didn’t even care to. I pressed my hands against my face, dragging them down slowly. My chest burned, and the weight in my throat grew unbearable. I tried to swallow it down, but it rose like bile, hot and acidic. I sucked in a sharp breath, but it didn’t help. Then, before I could stop it, my vision blurred. A warm line of w

    ELIANA’S POVThe dress felt heavier than it should have.Silk, soft against my skin, clean, free of blood—yet I still felt stained.I adjusted the cuffs of my sleeves as I walked down the corridor leading to the Grand Hall, my heels clicking against the polished floor. The path felt longer than usual, the air thick with tension, but I kept my head high. There would be no sign of weakness tonight.The investors were waiting. So was Ronan. My godforsaken Beta.The doors to the Grand Hall were already open when I arrived. The room was grand, high ceilings adorned with golden chandeliers, the long table in the center lined with crisp documents, and men and women dressed in sharp suits. Humans. Our potential business partners. My people were gathered too. The elders, the council, warriors standing at the edges like silent shadows. Asher was seated at one end, his expression unreadable. Raiden was on the opposite side, his arms crossed, eyes trained on me the second I entered. And then

    ASHER’S POVI was losing my mind.Hours had passed since she walked out, and no one knew where the hell she was.I should have stopped her. I should have gone after her the second she stepped out with that bloodied gown clinging to her like a second skin. But I hadn’t. I’d been too stunned, too fucking caught up in my own emotions to move. Now, she was out there—alone, hurt, and wearing the same damn nightgown she almost died in. My hands curled into fists as I stormed across the main hall. Every available pack member was searching for her. Even Ronan, despite his silence, was out there looking. The elders were restless. Not because they cared about her, but because of the investors meeting. “Find her, now,” one of them growled at the warriors. “We cannot afford to miss this deal over one reckless woman.” I clenched my jaw. She wasn’t just a woman. She was their Alpha. My wife. Or at least, she had been. And they still spoke about her like she was nothing. I exhaled sharply, s

    CALLUM POV The sheets were soft. The woman beneath me, softer. She moaned against my mouth, her fingers tangled in my hair as her bare thighs tightened around my waist. I smirked, trailing kisses down the curve of her throat, my hands gliding over smooth, warm skin. “You’re insatiable,” she purred, her nails dragging lightly over my shoulders. I chuckled. “And you love it.” She didn’t argue. My lips traced down her collarbone, my fingers dipping lower when— Knock. Knock. Knock. I froze. The woman beneath me let out an irritated groan. “Ignore it.” I wanted to. Fuck, I really wanted to. But whoever was at the door was persistent. Knock. Knock. Knock.I clenched my jaw, pressing my forehead against hers with an exhausted sigh.“This better be good,” I muttered. Then, raising my voice, I barked, “Who the fuck is that?” There was a pause before a familiar voice answered. “It’s me, sir.” I sighed again. Benson. My butler. The man had impeccable timing. “What do you want?”
