Dane's POV.

The thought of being in a coma for a few weeks, escaping the heartache and the gaping void in my soul, seemed almost like a relief.

Eventually, I pulled over by the pack archery building, the familiar sight offering peace. I stepped out of the car, the cool night air doing little to ease the searing pain within me.

I hastened my steps into the archery building, my frustration mounting with every stride. I needed to channel my anger somewhere, or I might end up making a rash decision I’d regret later.

As I stormed through the door, a female attendant immediately looked up and bowed her head respectfully. “Alpha Dane,” she greeted, her voice steady but tinged with apprehension.

“Is anyone else here?” I demanded curtly, my tone leaving no room for error.

“Yes, Alpha,” she replied, her voice steady but her eyes betraying her nervousness. “A few people are still around.”

“Clear the grounds,” I ordered with a sharp edge in my voice. “I want everyone gone, including the staff, e

    DANE'S POV.I drew my arms back, the bowstring taut, my gaze steady as I aimed directly at Edmond’s head. I could see the terror in his eyes, his heart pounding so loudly that it seemed almost audible. Sweat beaded on his forehead, tracing down his temples in glistening droplets.Edmond’s throat bobbed as he swallowed hard, his expression a mixture of fear and regret. The atmosphere was thick with tension, each second stretching out painfully. I could almost feel the weight of his dread pressing down on both of us.Finally, Edmond shut his eyes tightly, bracing himself for what he feared might come next. I released the arrow with a swift, controlled motion. It flew through the air with a sharp whoosh, slicing through the space between us.The arrow struck the apple with pinpoint accuracy, splitting it cleanly in half. The two halves fell to the ground, the pieces rolling slightly before coming to rest.Edmond’s eyes snapped open, his face ashen as he looked at the split apple befo

    ASTRID'S POVOpening my eyes, the first thing that assaulted me was a wave of pain, regret, and seething hatred that seemed to pulse through my very veins. My body ached from the cold, hard floor I had slumbered on, and my mind was foggy from exhaustion and the emotional strain of the past day.The memories of the previous night came rushing back. I had spent hours crying and pleading at Dane’s study door, my voice raw and hoarse from the constant begging. Each attempt to get through to him had been met with silence, and his refusal to open the door or acknowledge my presence had only deepened the sense of despair I felt.I had hoped—foolishly, it seemed—that we could work things out before nightfall, that somehow, we’d find a way to mend our fractured relationship. But as the hours ticked by, it became increasingly clear how far off I was. Dane’s anger was a force I had never encountered before, an intensity that made me feel more desolate than I had initially.In my desperation,

    ASTRID'S POV.Once back in the room, I made my way to the bathroom. The soft light of the morning filtering through the frosted window did little to ease my nerves. I removed my clothes and stepped into the shower, hoping the hot water might help clear my foggy thoughts. As the water cascaded over me, I tried to focus on the soothing sensations, but my mind remained clouded with worry. I kept replaying the events of the previous night, his anger, and the unspoken words that seemed to hang heavy in the air. The steady rhythm of the shower did nothing to soothe my anxiety, and I found myself lost in a haze of thoughts, struggling to make sense of everything.I needed to clear my mind, but the lingering worry about Dane’s whereabouts and the tension between us weighed heavily, making it hard to find peaceAs soon as I finished my shower and slipped into fresh clothes, I sank onto the edge of the bed, feeling a deep weight in my chest.

I could see through her act; it was clear that she wanted something from me, something I was determined not to give.“Guards!” I commanded, my tone icy and unyielding. “Throw her out of the pack, this instant!”“Please, Astrid, it’s almost the full moon. I can’t go out there; besides, I need to explain to Dane as well. Just let me meet him; I need to apologize,” Camilla pleaded, her voice choked with desperation. Tears streamed down her face, adding to her pitiful appearance. Despite her pleading, I remained unmoved, my arms folded tightly across my chest. “Dane isn’t home, and you can't tell that to him yourself so leave!” I snapped, my voice edged with irritation. My mind was heavy with worry, and Camilla’s dramatics only added to my frustration.It struck me as peculiar that Dane had not returned home yet, especially with the full moon approaching. My concern

Instead, she lunged forward, throwing her arms around my neck, pulling me into a tight hug.I could feel my control over my wolf slipping away more and more with each passing second, as it started to take over. A deeper, louder growl rumbled from my chest, but Astrid didn’t budge. Her eyes locked onto mine, and the way she looked at me sent a cold shiver down my spine.I tried to push her away, but it was no use. Something felt wrong, and it wasn’t just the wolf—everything seemed off.My claws extended, sharp and deadly, as I shoved her off once more. I winced when I saw her hit the floor with a heavy thud. The sound echoed in the room, and I froze when I noticed blood slowly seeping from a wound on her back. Rage coursed through me, but this time it was directed at myself. I was furious that I had lost control, furious that I had hurt her.The angrier I became, the less stable I felt. My body trembled with the force

The fresh air gently caressed my face, and I sighed in contentment, savoring the moment of tranquility. My gaze was fixed on the ground far below, the scenery seeming distant and blurred as I lost myself in thought.Suddenly, loud noises erupted from behind the door, jolting me from my reverie. A frown settled on my face, my curiosity piqued. What could the maids be up to now? Their commotion was unusual and unwelcome.The door swung open, and Camilla’s face appeared, her expression far from pleased. The displeasure etched on her features only deepened as she stepped into the room, her demeanor growing increasingly agitated.“You sneaky old liar!” she burst out, her voice sharp and accusing. Her words took me by surprise, and I turned to face her, confusion etched on my face.“What’s wrong, Camilla? Why are you here?” I asked, my tone more curious than concerned. Her eyes rolled in

She responded with a faint smile, her eyes still heavy with sleep, and instinctively drew even nearer to me.I cherished these moments deeply; times when our world seemed to shrink to just the two of us, and all our worries faded away. I wished for nothing more than to hold onto these serene, intimate moments forever, where the only thing that mattered was being wrapped in each other's embrace. This was my sole desire, and it was enough to fill my heart.“What?” she asked, her laughter bubbling up as she noticed my unwavering gaze

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!

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.

    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

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?

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.
