Lucas POV

I was busy working at my desk when a sudden noise from outside grabbed my attention. Heavy footsteps pounded toward my office in a rush. Before I could even stand up to see what was happening, the door flew open with a force that made the hinges groan.

The person behind this abrupt entrance was none other than my mate.

Her face was wild—fierce in a way I had never seen before. A chill crawled down my spine at the sight. There was raw fury in her expression, something untamed and dangerous. Right behind her, Jake followed in a panic, desperately pleading for her to stop.

"Tell me everything!" Lila demanded, her voice taking on a deeper, rougher tone as her wolf surfaced. Her usually bright eyes darkened with intensity, burning with a fire I never expected from her. For a moment, I was stunned. I had never imagined Lila capable of such raw anger. What had happened to make her act like this?

Then, before I could ask, I caught a glimpse of Jake’s guilty expression. That was all

    I hesitated. Telling her would mean crossing a line I had been trying to avoid. But there was no turning back now. "Pack defenses. Our border patrol rotations. The locations of our safe houses." Lila sucked in a sharp breath, her fists clenching at her sides. "He gave that to the Drakkons?" "Yes," I admitted. "And more." Her lips parted slightly, disbelief flickering across her face before anger consumed it again. "And you weren’t going to tell me?" I sighed. "I was going to tell you, but not like this. You’ve been recovering, Lila. You didn’t need this stress." "Are you serious right now?" She let out a bitter laugh. "Do I look like someone who needs coddling?" Jake mumbled, "You kinda look like someone who needs a punching bag." She spun on him so fast he nearly tripped over his own feet. "Don’t tempt me." "Noted," he muttered. I pinched the bridge of my nose, trying to keep my frustration in check. "Lila, listen. I was handling it." She scoffed. "Handling it?

    Jake's breath hitched, his mind reeling from the weight of Lila’s revelation. His heartbeat pounded in his ears as he stared at her, the woman he had sworn to protect, the woman he had longed for, and the very person he had been hunting all this time.Lucas was frozen beside him, eyes wide in disbelief. He had dismissed Jake’s suspicions for years, never once believing that Lawrence could be so close. And yet, here she was—Lila, the ghost of their past, the hacker who had tormented them, the enemy they had chased relentlessly.“You…” Lucas started, his voice hoarse. “You’re Lawrence?”Lila nodded, her face unreadable, but the tension in her shoulders betrayed her unease. “Yes.”Jake exhaled slowly, forcing himself to focus. “So, everything—the break-ins, the leaks, the near-death encounters—you orchestrated all of it?”“Yes,” she admitted, her voice barely above a whisper.Lucas clenched his fists, the urge to lash out evident in his rigid posture. “You were toying with us. With him.”

    "We need to leave. Now."Lila's voice cut through the silence like a blade, her tone sharp and urgent. Jake and Lucas exchanged glances, still reeling from the storm of revelations. But the panic in her eyes was undeniable."Leave?" Lucas scoffed, arms crossed. "After everything you just dumped on us, now you expect us to run off without an explanation?"Lila exhaled sharply, her hands clenching into fists. "This isn't about me. My private servers have been compromised. If we don't get to them first—""Your servers?" Jake interrupted, narrowing his eyes. "What's on them?"Lila hesitated, shifting uncomfortably. "Information. A lot of it. Everything I’ve ever gathered on every pack, every leader, every backdoor deal that violates the treaty. If the Drakkons get their hands on it—""War," Jake finished, his jaw tightening.Lucas let out a string of curses under his breath. "You're telling me you've been collecting dirt on everyone this whole time?""For leverage," Lila admitted. "In cas

    They reached the one of server room, the large space filled with rows of blinking terminals. But it was the figure at the central console that sent a bolt of ice through Jake’s veins. A man stood hunched over the controls, fingers flying across the keys. The glow of the screens reflected off his sharp features, his presence exuding quiet menace. Lila stiffened. "That’s not possible..." she whispered. The man turned, his lips curling into a smirk. "Surprised to see me, Lawrence?" Lucas went rigid. "Who the hell is that?" "Damon," Lila said, her voice barely above a whisper. "He was supposed to be dead." Jake’s grip on his weapon tightened. "Clearly, he's not." Damon chuckled, stepping away from the console. "Oh, come on. Did you really think I wouldn’t have a backup plan? Lila, you of all people should know better." Lila’s expression darkened. "What did you do?" Damon spread his arms. "I took everything. Every file, every secret you’ve ever hoarded. And now, I decide

    "We need to leave. Now." Lila Screemed "You can’t be serious." Lucas’s voice was sharp, disbelief laced in every syllable."I am," Lila replied, her expression unyielding. "I’m going to Vestbroke. I don’t have a choice.""Like hell you don’t," he snapped. "You nearly died, Lila. And now you think you can just—""I have to," she interrupted, her voice steady but carrying an edge of desperation. "If I don’t, we all suffer the consequences. You don’t understand what’s at stake."Jake exhaled slowly, watching the exchange with narrowed eyes. "Lila, we get that this is important, but you’re barely standing. What happens if you collapse before we even get there?"Lila squared her shoulders. "I won’t."Lucas let out a frustrated scoff. "Oh, so now you’re immortal? That explosion almost killed you. You lost your arm, for crying out loud! You can barely breathe without wincing, and you think you can handle a trip to Vestbroke?"Lila’s jaw tightened. "I don't need your permission.""Maybe not,

    "This is a terrible idea." Lucas’s voice was tight with frustration, his fingers drumming impatiently against his knee. He sat in the passenger seat, eyes fixed on Lila in the back. "You keep saying that, yet here I am," Lila said smoothly, crossing her legs. Jake, behind the wheel, sighed. "You two gonna do this the entire trip?" "If she stops being impossible, then maybe," Lucas shot back. Lila smirked. "Impossible? You act like I had a choice. You know as well as I do that we can't be apart for long—not without consequences." Lucas clenched his jaw. He hated that she was right. Their mate bond had grown too strong. If they had left her behind, the pain of separation would have been unbearable. But that didn’t mean he had to like this arrangement. Jake flicked his gaze toward him. "Look, man, I get it. But we’ve got bigger problems than you and Lila being in the same car." Lucas exhaled sharply. "I know that." He turned back to Lila. "But that doesn’t mean I trust yo

    NEXT "Because no one else is," Lila snapped. "Because he's not just hiding—he's planning something." Lucas’s stomach churned. Rikkard of the Snow Court wasn’t someone to take lightly. Unpredictable. Dangerous. A killer. "How bad is it?" Lucas asked. Lila took a slow breath. "Bad enough that if we don’t stop him, it won’t matter what the Drakkons want. He’ll get there first." Jake shot her a quick glance. "Get where?" Lila hesitated again, but then she said it. "The Arctic." —--------------------------- The Arctic Invasion Plan:"That’s impossible." Lucas shook his head, trying to process Lila’s words. "No one’s reckless enough to try that." Lila let out a humorless laugh. "Then you don’t know Rikkard." Jake cursed under his breath. The Arctic was Drakkon territory. No one entered without consequence. "Why would he go there?" Jake demanded. "Because he’s not just going," Lila said. "He’s invading." Lucas’s breath caught. "Invading? You’re saying he’s taking

    Lucas rubbed his temple, frustration evident in the sharpness of his voice. "Let’s say for one insane second that you’re right—that these creatures were real, that they fought against gods. How does that explain them disappearing without a trace? Things that powerful don’t just vanish.""They didn’t vanish," Lila murmured. "They were erased."Jake let out a low whistle, shaking his head. "You’re asking us to believe that an entire species, one powerful enough to challenge gods, was just wiped out? No survivors, no remnants, nothing?""Not nothing," Lila countered. "Their power remained. Buried, hidden, sealed away by those who feared what it could do."Lucas exhaled, staring out the window at the vast emptiness beyond the road. "And now Rikkard is looking for it.""He’s not just looking," Lila said, her voice barely above a whisper. "He’s close to finding it."Jake gripped the wheel tighter, his knuckles turning white. "That’s what you’re really afraid of, isn’t it?"Lila swallowed ha

    “You’re joking, right? Please tell me this is some twisted prank,” Lucas muttered under his breath, his eyes never leaving the figure lounging by the fireplace.“I wish it were,” Jake replied quietly, jaw clenched. “But that’s him. That’s Rikkard.”Lucas swore under his breath. “Of all the days… why the hell would he show up in Venut?”“I don’t know,” Jake admitted, hands fisted in his jacket pockets. “But we need to play this smart. We can’t let him know about Lila.”Lucas inhaled sharply and nodded. “You sure he hasn’t seen her?”“Positive. He only saw us. Let’s keep it that way.”The plush lounge of the hotel was dimly lit, scented with expensive cologne, polished leather, and cigar smoke. Rikkard was seated casually on a velvet couch, legs crossed, swirling amber liquid in a crystal tumbler. His demeanor was relaxed, almost amused—but Jake could see it. The glint of calculated menace in his eyes.Jake took a breath and approached with Lucas, every step deliberate. They stopped jus

    “Tell me you’re joking,” Lucas muttered, his voice low and edged with tension.“I wish I were,” Jake replied, running a hand through his damp hair. “But he’s here. In Venut. I saw his convoy near the North Quarter twenty minutes ago.”Lila blinked. “Wait, Rikkard? As in—the Rikkard?”Jake gave a grim nod. “The Mad Alpha himself.”Lucas straightened from where he sat beside Lila on the hotel bed, his entire body going rigid. “How the hell did he find out we were here?”“Doesn’t matter,” Jake said. “What matters is that he’s here. And if he’s sniffing around, it’s not just to catch up over drinks.”Lila’s face lost all color. “You told me he wasn’t a threat anymore.”“I told you what I needed to so you’d sleep,” Jake said quietly, shame flickering across his expression. “But clearly, I was wrong.”“Perfect,” Lucas growled. “Just what we need—another lunatic Alpha throwing his weight around.”“Not just another lunatic,” Jake said, voice clipped. “He’s the lunatic. The one who ripped out

    “…She’s alive,” Lila repeated, quieter now. “I just don’t know where.”Lucas’s hand tightened briefly on her shoulder before he let go, stepping back to give her space even as his eyes lingered with worry. Jake returned to the window, gaze hard and focused.The silence that followed was the kind that spoke louder than words.Then—Knock. Knock. Knock.Not soft. Not tentative.The kind of knock that didn’t ask permission.Jake’s head snapped toward the door. Lucas was already moving—one hand reaching into the drawer beneath the minibar, where he’d hidden a blade and compact gun. Lila rose too, pulse leaping as the door handle turned despite the locks still being in place.Click.“Jake,” Lucas said, tone sharp.Jake strode toward the door and yanked it open an inch just as the locks disengaged, bypassed from the outside.The man who stepped in didn’t belong in any polished hotel suite. His mere presence dimmed the luxurious lighting, as if shadows followed him in.Rikkard.He was as unm

    “I didn’t mean to wake you,” Lucas murmured, brushing a strand of hair from her face.“You didn’t,” Lila whispered back, her voice still drowsy. “I was already half-awake. I just didn’t want to move.”“You were sore,” he said gently, guilt flickering across his features. “I can feel it in your muscles.”“I’m fine,” she said, but he was already moving, sliding from the bed with careful grace.Jake’s voice floated in from the other room. “She’s not fine if she’s wincing in her sleep.”“I wasn’t wincing,” Lila muttered, rolling her eyes even as her cheeks flushed. She tried to sit up, only to wince slightly at the sting between her thighs. Damn it.Lucas was already wetting a towel from the tiny sink across the room. “Don’t lie to me, little wolf,” he said with an affectionate smile that didn’t quite mask his concern. “You’re strong, but you’re not indestructible.”Jake appeared in the doorway, arms crossed, his eyes scanning her with that piercing protectiveness that made her squirm mor

    A Morning of Warmth and Wariness:“Lucas… your knot’s still in,” Lila mumbled, voice raspy with sleep.“I know,” he murmured against her shoulder, lips brushing her skin. “Didn’t want to wake you. You were peaceful.”“I’m not now,” she grumbled, stretching slightly and wincing at the soreness spreading through her hips.His arm tightened around her waist. “Sorry. I lost control.”“You didn’t.” She turned in his arms to face him. “I gave it willingly. Don’t take that away from me.”He searched her face, his eyes dark with concern. “You’re sore.”“I’m alive,” she said with a soft smile. “And I’m with you. That’s enough.”Lucas exhaled, brushing a strand of hair from her face. “Still… I should’ve been gentler.”“You’ll make up for it,” she teased, and for a moment, the heaviness in the room eased.The cabin bedroom was dim, the blinds half-drawn against the gray light of morning. Somewhere beyond the walls of this quiet space, the engines hummed low and steady. But here, wrapped in warm

    “You’re safe now,” Lucas whispered, his knot still pulsing deep inside her.But safety was only one part of it.Lila trembled, her body molded against his, the fullness of his knot keeping her grounded and overwhelmed in equal measure. Her breath hitched, shallow and stuttered, as her inner muscles clenched around him again—an aftershock, or maybe the prelude to something more.Lucas didn’t move.Didn’t demand.He simply waited.And that, more than anything, unraveled her.“I can’t move,” she breathed, eyes clenched shut.“Yes, you can,” he murmured, brushing hair from her face. “You’re not broken, Lila. You’re not fragile. Not anymore.”Her fingers dug into the armrest, breath catching.Lucas leaned forward, his lips at her ear. “I want you to move. I want you to ride it. Take what you need from me.”Her heart stuttered.This wasn’t a command.It was a gift.Her legs ached. Her body throbbed. But still, she shifted—slowly, hesitantly—testing the taut pressure where their bodies remai

    Lila’s breathing had slowed, her body molded to Lucas’s as though it belonged there—because it did. But the storm inside him hadn’t yet passed.Not even close.The feel of her, bare and vulnerable in his arms, only fueled his craving. His wolf still paced beneath his skin, restless and territorial, demanding more—demanding all of her. Every breath. Every sound. Every submissive gasp she hadn’t dared give anyone else.Lucas’s voice was low against her ear. “Up. On your knees.”She blinked in surprise.Still curled in his lap, wrapped in the thin barrier of his jacket, Lila hesitated.Lucas didn’t raise his voice. He didn’t need to.His fingers skimmed under the fabric, trailing down her spine. “Don’t make me repeat myself.”Her heartbeat kicked harder, not out of fear—but recognition.She moved. Slowly. Carefully. She slid from his lap and turned, positioning herself between his legs, kneeling. The soft carpet beneath her knees contrasted with the burn in her chest. The jacket slipped

    Lila lay nestled in Lucas’s lap, her breathing finally beginning to slow after that sweet, silent unraveling. Her cheek rested against his chest, and he kept his arms wrapped tightly around her as if anchoring her to reality—to him.But the air between them was far from settled.It pulsed with heat.With promise.With something primal still waiting to be unleashed.Lucas’s fingers slid through the strands of her hair, then gently down her back. The slow, possessive caress of a male who had no intention of letting her retreat behind silence again.Then, softly—but with an edge of command—he said, “Stand up.”Lila blinked, her muscles stiff from how long she'd clung to him. “What?”Lucas looked into her eyes, voice firm but calm. “Stand. Now.”His tone held no threat. Only promise.Promise of what came next.Her heart kicked harder.With effort, she slid off his lap and rose to her feet, swaying just slightly. Lucas stayed seated, legs parted, eyes lifting to trace every line of her body

    The jet sliced through clouds like a whispering ghost, silver wings glinting against the rising sun. Inside the cabin, the mood was heavy and hushed—an odd quiet that didn’t come from peace, but from anticipation. A storm was brewing—of purpose, of emotion, of bodies teetering on the edge of control.Lucas sat with his arm resting on the back of the leather seat, close to Lila but not touching her. Not yet.She was turned slightly away, face bathed in morning light as she stared through the oval window. Her fingers were curled against her lap, the veins along her wrist faintly pulsing. Her mind, clearly, was not in this cabin.Lucas could feel the distance like cold glass between them.Across the aisle, Jake had his head down, fingers gliding rapidly across his tablet. Surveillance feeds blinked silently on the screen, updates flowing in from the cyber unit. His expression was unreadable—guarded, remote.But Lucas knew Jake noticed everything.The soft hum of the engines filled the si
