Dane's POV.

Heading back to the mansion or the main building, I couldn't help but recall every single word the rogue had said to me when I kept torturing him. Edmond had some nerves to take My Luna and think this was a game.

“I'll make you pay dearly for what you've done, Edmond! By the time he gets to the public and reveals your evil intentions, you'll have no way, no right to deny it!” I said inwardly as my focus and attention were now fixed on the mansion ahead.

Getting to the door, I wasted no time in pushing it open and walking into it. If there was anything that mattered at this moment, it definitely was going to see Astrid.

Although I was angry or mad about what Edmond had done, I still couldn't contain or suppress the joy I felt knowing that my mate is actually back in the mansion.

Without a single delay, I headed right for her room. Beta Ivar has been with her since I left so I was certain that she was in good hands.

“Alpha Dane!” Beta Ivar bowed his head the second he saw me

    Astrid's POV:“Where am I?” I mumbled as I opened my eyes slowly. It felt heavy, but most of all, I felt comfort. It was clear that I wasn't at the warehouse anymore, and the light that first greeted me the second I opened my eyes proved me right.“Am I…” I gasped as I fluttered my eyes open wide, looking around the place. It was clear that I wasn't just picked away in some old rusty place anymore. I was safe, I was okay.“Thank the Moon Goddess for this, thank the Moon Goddess for saving me!” I prayed silently as I sat up on the bed.At this point, I needed to get the full explanation of how I got saved from the warehouse because the last I checked, I had blacked out after the rogue had tortured me, and I couldn't tell what happened next.“Could it be him that brought me back to the mansion?” I mumbled but shook my head almost immediately, trying to dispel the thoughts of Alpha Dane helping me out.“It can't be possible, he can't be the one!”I climbed out of the bed, ready to use th

    Astrid's POV.“Congratulations on getting pregnant,” the doctor suddenly uttered, making my eyes bulge out in shock and awe.Without hesitation, I grabbed him by the hand and pulled him closer to me. It was obvious that he knew something no one in the pack must know, something that must be kept a secret and never let out.“Luna Astrid… Are you okay? You should…” he started to say when I cut in sharply without hesitation. It was best I told him now rather than never or later.“This is why I am here. Only I know that I am pregnant. Alpha Dane must not know! Please!” I pleaded, my eyes staring into his eyes. My fingers that were wrapped around his arm clenched tightly, and he could feel my fingers digging into his skin.“What?” he exclaimed, not believing what I had just said to him. “But that should be great news. It’s not like Alpha Dane would kill his own child, right?” he uttered, making me scoff immediately.I wished it was his child. I wished the child belonged to him so I wouldn’t

    Dane's POV.Waking up so early the next morning felt tiresome. I just wished I could have a day of rest and not do anything at all, but who was I kidding? I was an Alpha and had my pack members to lead.Sitting up on the bed, I turned to look beside me and found Astrid fast asleep. It was funny, though, seeing how we had gone from despising each other to being scared of losing each other.If it were earlier when she came to the pack, I bet there was no way I'd stay on the same bed with her. She'd disgust me to the core, but I guess the mate bond was stronger than I had ever imagined.Without hesitation, I stood to my feet and walked over to the wardrobe. I grabbed my towel and, wrapping it around my waist, headed straight for the bathroom to get ready.I made sure it was just a quick shower. Once I was done, I came out and made my way to where my clothes were hung. I had already gotten them prepared beforehand just to ensure that I wouldn't be late for the judgement of the day.“This

    Dane's POV. Watching Astrid rush into the bathroom after thanking me was a feeling I wished to carry everywhere I went. A smile curled up on my lips, and I had forgotten about the rage that coursed through my veins concerning Edmond.Without hesitation, I turned to the door. Recalling that Beta Ivar had misbehaved, I didn't hesitate to walk towards the door. Opening it, I found Beta Ivar standing by the door with his head bowed to me instantly.“What the hell did you do that for?” I snapped again, trying my best to keep my voice low so that Astrid wouldn't hear me speak.“I'm sorry, Alpha Dane!” He apologised, not wanting to carry the issue further. There was every possibility that Ivar could argue with me, but he chose not to, and that was the best decision he had ever made.“Sorry for yourself, Ivar!” I uttered through gritted teeth as I stared at him. “Next time you try pulling such a stunt, I won't hesitate to make you pay dearly! Is that clear?” I warned, my eyes fixed right on

    Dane's POV:“Which of you had the guts to mock my Luna?” My fist clenched as I glared at each of them standing right before me. They were scared, and I understood that, but it wasn't going to make me stop. It wasn't going to make me let go of them easily.When they had begun to speak ill about my mate, they could have thought twice. They could have reasoned properly that they feared Alpha Dane and wouldn't want him to get furious at them.My fist clenched as I kept waiting for a response. They weren't speaking at this moment, and it infuriated me even more.“Speak or I…” I was going to place a threat, but just then, one of them spoke up, cutting me short, which I disliked so badly.“No one, Alpha Dane… none of us spoke ill of your mate and Luna!” He immediately went on his knees, his head bowed to me to show respect while he lied.How was it possible that after lying to me, he had the guts to act like the victim? At this point, it was obvious that everyone was going to see me as a mon

    Dane's POV:“I asked, who sent you?” My voice was deep and authoritative as I glared at them kneeling on the ground, their heads bowed.Seeing how furious I was, they lifted their heads and turned to me, a sneer curling up on their lips immediately. It was scary and, above all, felt intensely weird.“Alpha Halfdan sent us!” they finally declared. My brows furrowed immediately at the sound of what they had just said to me.“What? That wasn't what you told me! Who sent you? Say the truth right now!” I commanded, but it was fruitless. It was as though they had taken orders from someone and weren't going to speak up no matter what.Slowly, I turned to look at the crowd that had kept mumbling. They were as shocked as I was too. Just then, my eyes met with that of Edmond, and the sneer that was on his lips drove home one fact: he had a hand in this.He had done something to them, but how? When? Last time I checked, the cell was heavily guarded, so how the hell did Edmond get past the guards

He was trying to get into my head, trying to make me feel useless and incapable of having Astrid by my side. He knew something that no one else knew.“Eliminate him? A threat?” I scoffed, sliding my hands into my pockets as I walked closer to where he stood, my eyes glaring at him.“Is that why you made them tag him as the one responsible for the abduction and the rogues' attack, Edmond? You planned all this just to watch Alpha Halfdan get taken down?” I scoffed, my eyes rolling in disgust.“I’m pretty sure you know what I mean, Alpha Dane! And besides, I do not know what you speak of! Kill him and make him pay for what he did!” He snarled, and just then, I couldn't help but nod my head in response.“I'll do as you said, Edmond… but on one condition…” I bargained.“And what must that be, my A

Edmond was secretive, and I wasn't going to hear a single word no matter how hard I tried.Just then, Alpha Dane excused himself and left Edmond all alone. I was going to turn around and head into the mansion, but unfortunately, I was stopped by Edmond who suddenly got a strong grip on my hand, halting me in my tracks.“Long time no see, Luna Astrid!” he sneered as he glared right into my eyes. I could see it all—the malice, the evil intent, the sinister plots. He was definitely behind it all, and there was no doubt about it.“Let go!” I pulled my ha

The room was quiet, and for a moment, loneliness washed over me like a cold wave.But then I turned to the window and saw Dane, his strong frame leaning against the sill. He cradled our baby, Hayden, in his arms. A smile crept across my face at the sight of them together. They looked perfect.“You're awake late! We had plans for today, but you overslept,” Dane teased as he walked over to me. He leaned down and placed a gentle kiss on my lips. The warmth of his affection spread through me, making me feel safe and loved.It had been a month since everything turned upside down—a month since the terrifying nightmare that almost took our lives. After escaping to the pack with Ethan, I had spent many sleepless nights, my mind racing with fears. I was terrified that Dane would sacrifice our child, that he wouldn’t care about us. But I was wrong.Dane would never hurt our baby. He and Ethan to

    Halfdan's pov. (His End)The bottle of whiskey was cold in my hand, the burn of the liquid a distant sensation as it slid down my throat. I could barely feel it anymore, barely cared. All I could think of was her. Camilla. My mate. My cunning, twisted, evil mate.How did it come to this? The memories of that night still clawed at my mind, gnawing away until I felt like I might go insane. I closed my eyes, but the image of her face filled my head—the way her eyes locked onto mine in those final moments, full of both fear and acceptance. She was in my arms, her body limp and lifeless, yet her lips had curled in that knowing smile. The same smile she had whenever she thought she had won.She had won.Even in death, she had won, taking the slash meant for me, falling in my place. She died in my arms, the blood soaking my hands, the life draining from her body while I could only watch. And no matter how much I told myself I hated her for all she'd done, for all the evil she brought to o

    Halfdan's POV.I stood on the balcony, hands behind my back, staring up at the sky. I had felt off all night, but something about being out here shifted my mood. A small smile formed on my lips as I gazed at the red sky. It wasn't the death of an alpha; I would’ve been invited if that were the case. No, this meant something else—a moon healer had been born.How fortunate their parents were. A child with such a rare gift was both a blessing and a burden. The entire world would come for them, and I would have to protect that child. It was my duty. But deep down, I wished I’d been given that choice, to have a child of my own to protect. I wanted it so badly, and I would die for my child if it came to that. But not everything in life goes the way we want it to.A sharp knock at the door snapped me out of my thoughts, and I turned my head toward the sound.“Alpha Halfdan!” Drake shouted as he burst onto the balcony, panting heavily.“What is it now, Drake?” I asked, rolling my eyes.

    DANE'S POV"Camilla," I called out, my voice firm. She didn’t even flinch, her cold, hard glare fixed on Astrid. Astrid, who looked exhausted and fragile. She had just given birth. She needed rest, not this. She shouldn’t be standing here, facing Camilla. All I could think was, ‘Have I ever done anything right?’ Ever since she came into my life, all I’d done was cause her pain and worry. And now I had a son too. I couldn’t let this cruel fate fall on them both. They deserved peace— ‘they deserved better than me.’Camilla took a step forward, her lips curling into a cruel smile. Her eyes locked onto the baby. My son. I stepped in front of Astrid, blocking her view."I’m going to need the child," Camilla said, her voice dripping with malice. The smirk on her face widened, her eyes glowing with hatred.My jaw tightened, my body tense. "What makes you think I’ll give you my son?" I growled, glaring at her. But my words only made her smile bigger. She looked back at me with the same ch

    DANE'S POVEight months had passed, and it felt like nothing had changed. Every morning, I woke up wondering if she still hated me as much as before. It bothered me. What was I supposed to do to make things right?She had been kidnapped and hospitalised so many times, and I knew my life was dangerous for her. To make things worse, she misunderstood something I said, thinking I would hurt our child. What did she think of me?That night, after I apologised again and again, she ran off. Even after almost being killed by Camilla, she didn’t stop. She must have cared about me, right? But then her mother died, and she left, probably thinking it was better to get hurt by someone else than by me.Now, she’s back in the Fierce Claws pack. For eight months, I’ve known where she’s been hiding. I watched over her, had guards keeping a close eye, though from a safe distance. I made sure she was protected, but I kept my distance too.

    ASTRID'S POVI panicked, trying to take another step, but the contractions were too strong. Tears filled my eyes as I whispered, “Help… please… someone…”But no one stopped. People walked past me, ignoring my pleas. No one knew who I was, and they didn’t care. I was invisible.“See where avoiding me got you?” Ethan’s voice came from behind me. I turned, and for the first time in my life, I was relieved to hear him.“Let’s get you somewhere safe,” he said, grabbing my arm and guiding me toward his car. I didn’t fight him. I couldn’t. He helped me into the car, and we sped off.The pain was unbearable now. I tried to hold back my screams, but it was impossible. Each contraction was worse than the last. I was losing control.Ethan pulled up to a small cottage—not a hospital—but it didn’t matter. “Someone, help!” he yelled as he carried me inside.An older man and two young women rushed over, guiding me to a bed.

The smell of antiseptic wasn’t there, and everything seemed normal. It was quiet. Peaceful.I ran my fingers through my hair, sitting up slowly. I was back home, tucked safely in bed, but the memories hit me hard. It all came rushing back—my uncle, Camilla, and the knife. I almost died.But Dane saved me.Camilla had tried to kill me, but Dane stopped her. He apologized, kissed me, but I was too tired to care at that moment. I had spent the whole day running and crying. Exhausted from the fear and pain, I must have fallen asleep on the ride back.Looking out the window, I frowned. Something felt off. It was getting dark outside, and I had no idea how long I’d been asleep. Where was Dane?I stretched and got out of bed, glancing around. The room felt empty. Dane should’ve been here by now.

Whoever it was had been within arm's length all along, silently watching my suffering unfold. Such great audacity.I had been drowning in despair for far too long, consumed by grief and confusion for reasons I now realized were unfounded. The thought of revenge simmered within me, but first, I needed to uncover the truth. Who on earth could it be? Who had the audacity to murder my father and continue to live among us, hidden in plain sight?But then, the Bluestone Pack—who could it possibly be? What motives could they have?
