Ivy's POV

The moment Spencer’s wolf starts to calm down, I feel myself starting to stumble.

I can sense the chaos in Spencer’s mind starting to right itself as I gasp in desperate breaths, wobbling back and forth woozily as I gradually start to regain my vision. My throat aches, and I can already feel it starting to bruise. If I tried to speak, I think it would burn. My body feels strange and it takes me a moment to realize exactly what I’m feeling.

Or rather, what I was feeling.

The strange, abundant magical power that had been coursing through my body dissipates, sending another wave of disorientation through me. I lose my split-second connection with Spencer’s mind and his wolf. Just as I think I’m about to fall to the ground, Spencer, now returned to human form, catches me.

“Thank you,” I whisper hoarsely as he scoops me up into his arms.

Spencer nods once, expression distant. His eyes gleam with an emotion I can’t quite place–something bittersweet and sad as he looks at the bo

    Spencer's POVI never thought things would go this way. I sprint desperately through the woods, mind lost in a flurry of thoughts. I’d fallen into Elder Jet’s trap, purely because of my own arrogance. All those warriors are dead now because of me, and the worst part is that Elder Jet’s plan worked exactly like he wanted it to.I don’t know what will happen when word gets out about the werewolves I’ve killed. Worst of all is what happened when Ivy showed up. When I finally got control of Lucius, I was horrified to find myself choking Ivy. And although I released her as soon as I got the chance, she was already on the brink of death.She can’t die because of me. She can’t. I burst through the doors of the Lycan Hospital without hesitation. “Who’s the head doctor here?” I roar, whipping my head back and forth in search of anyone who can help. A tall, slender woman immediately rushes over to me. “That–that’s me,” she says cautiously. “My name is Doctor Danbury. How can I help… you…”

    Spencer's POV“I am her mate.”The moment I hear those words pass my own lips, I find myself stunned and shocked. I’d never wanted to share this secret with anyone–including Ivy herself. I have no plans to hold any sort of Mate Ceremony with her, nor do I want anyone to use her against me. But the sight of Ivy in her coma…For the first time in my life, I’m afraid. I’m afraid of losing her.Is this because of the mate bond? My mind starts to race, but now’s not the time to ponder that question. I have bigger things to worry about. “I am her mate,” I repeat helplessly, looking around at the swarm of doctors and nurses as if they’re holding some secret answer hostage. “So what can I do to help her? How do I reactivate her life force through the mate bond?”Swallowing her shock and doing her best to restate her mask of professionalism, Dr. Danbury replies quickly. “The Blood Oath Ceremony is the only solution.”“The Blood Oath Ceremony?”The doctor hesitates just a moment before expl

    Spencer's POVMy heart races with anticipation as I look over Ivy’s pale body lying on the hospital bed.Since I’ve met her, I’ve done many things I can’t quite explain. Ivy is my mate, and I’m more interested in her than she could ever know, but I never thought I’d be willing to share my life with her. And yet I feel as though losing her would mean losing my life, too. I take my clothes off quickly and sit down next to her on the bed. Slowly, uncertainly, I start to undress Ivy, removing her garments one by one. I draw in a deep breath, trying to stay calm.Once we do this, our bond will be inseparable. Just as I’m about to put Ivy’s things away, I suddenly receive a mind-link from Beta Wilson. ‘The Lycan King found out about your plan to save Ivy,’ Beta Wilson says. Even through the mind-link, I can hear the vague chastising in his tone. No one would dare openly criticize me, of course, but Wilson is not only my Beta; he's like a brother to me. He asked worriedly, ‘The Blood Oat

    Ivy's POVI find myself in a vast forest, dappled sunlight pouring through the trees and warming my skin. I know I’ve never been here before, but something about the forest feels uncannily familiar. The arch of the trees, maybe, the crook of the branches. The way a gentle path winds and curves around the woods. The lazy slope of hills spilling across the horizon. It feels safe here. Realizing I’m on my knees, I stand up quickly and turn in a slow circle. The trees spread out in every direction, humming with wildlife. Birds and insects chirp all around me. The sunlight is golden and feels holy against my body. How did I get here?I don’t know where to go, so I pick a direction at random and start walking. I’m barefoot, but the ground is laden with soft moss and grass. A simple white slip falls just past my knees, occasionally lifted by the wind. I know I should be terrified, but I feel more at peace than I’ve ever felt before.“Hello?” I call out tentatively.No response.Am I alone

    Ivy's POVI wake up to find myself lying naked in Spencer’s strong arms, his hands clasping mine tightly. I blush immediately, pulling my hands out of his. Much to my surprise, thick beads of gold blood run down both our wrists. I wipe my cut palm frantically on the bed sheets before wriggling my way out of Spencer’s embrace. Just as I’m about to leave the bed, pondering how I could’ve possibly ended up where I just was, a muscular arm wraps around my waist and pulls me back down onto the bed. Spencer lets out a low chuckle as I land next to him on the sheets, together once again. “Just came back to life and you’re already leaving me?” Spencer questions, looking me over intently. My blush somehow intensifies, and I look away from his piercing gaze. “I…”Back to life? The memories hit me all at once, a relentless wave. Suddenly, I remember what had happened back at the Werewolf Council’s chambers, and how I’d ended up collapsing in Spencer’s arms. I take a look around the room an

    Ivy's POVSweat dampens the hair on my forehead. I whimper, not quite sure what to do. I want him to hit me again. I know that much. “I’ve taught you what I want to hear,” Spencer reminds me patiently, lightly biting my earlobe and eliciting another moan at the slight sting of pain. My mind reels, struggling to figure out what my next move should be. I’ve never felt this excited–or helpless-before. I respond instinctively to Spencer’s kisses. Everything we’ve done so far has felt completely natural. But I have no idea how to answer his question. As Spencer continues to pleasure me with his free hand, teasing and toying but never actually applying direct pressure to that sweet spot where I want his fingers the most, I can feel both my mind and my body becoming clumsy. Finally, I settle on an answer. “Prince Spencer,” I moan. He would want me to respect him, right?Plus, even if my answer is wrong–and I have a sneaking suspicion that it is–I think I quite like what my punishment

    Ivy's POVI can’t believe what a jerk Spencer is being right now. He continues to fuck me shallowly, and it feels so, so good, but it’s not enough. He’s torturing me. He’s torturing me, and he knows it. I look up at him with a resentful gaze, not quite sure what to do. My face is bright red. Catching my frustrated expression, Spencer smiles indulgently. He reaches forward and brushes the pad of his thumb against my lips, as if to say, “come kiss me.” I don’t need any further encouragement. I wrap my arms around him tightly, pulling him close and crushing my mouth against his. Spencer moans into my mouth as he starts thrusting into me again, ramming me into the bedsheets. I can feel myself getting closer and closer, completely lost in my own pleasure as he continues to fuck me. “Beg me,” Spencer urges between thrusts. I can barely form words. “I… I…”“Come on, Ivy,” he says, thrusting me especially hard. I moan, digging my fingers into his shoulders for balance. “Just beg,” S

    Spencer's POV“Is Miss Ivy Bell your mate?”My father’s face darkens in disappointment as he asks the question. I know he already knows the answer. He just wants to hear it from me. His hands grip the sides of his chair angrily, knuckles white. I can feel just how enraged he is even at the mere prospect. No Lycan Prince should be with a lowly girl like Ivy, and we both know it. And yet, here we are. “She is,” I admit, looking him squarely in the eyes. My father sighs, rubbing his temples with one hand. He glowers down at me. “Have you gone mad? Why did you lie to me about this, Spencer?” He asks in frustration. “I had no intention of actually acting upon our Mate Bond,” I explain calmly. “I wasn’t planning on holding any sort of Mate Ceremony. While it’s true that Ivy is my mate, I figured nothing else in my life would change–she would simply remain by my side. And so, as far as anyone was concerned, no one else needed to know. Not even her.”It’s strange to think–I mean what I’m

Gamma Everly and Alpha Leo bring up the head, but I linger near the back, frantically getting in touch with Wilson. ‘Are you at the palace?’ I ask him. His response is quick. ‘Sylvia and I are stationed at the front doors, Your Highness. We’ve also got all the guards ready to defend the palace as soon as it’s necessary.’‘Well done, Wilson,’ I say. ‘I’ve got another task at hand for you, though. The rogue werewolves have just attempted to lead the entire Lycan Army out into the middle of the woods–likely to leave the barracks, and thus an entrance to the palace, undefended. Fortunately we’ve still got reserve soldiers stationed there. I need you to head to the barracks, investigate the scene, and mobilize the reserve soldiers as needed. Can you do that?’ ‘Of course, Prin

    Spencer's POV“Don’t trust him!”The words burst out of Alpha Leo’s mouth in a jumbled rush as he comes to a stop in front of Gamma Everly and I. He doubles over in exhaustion, hands resting on his knees. His breath comes in ragged, wheezing gasps, clearly plagued by trauma to his lungs. I can still see him suffering from the remnants of his injuries from earlier today—no doubt they’ve slowed him down considerably. I raise an eyebrow, studying Alpha Leo intently. “Don’t trust who?” I ask. “The—the centurion!” He gasps out. There’s a faint wheeze tugging at the edge of Alpha Leo’s breath. He stands up slowly, spine popping. “The man who… who told you to come here—he’s not who he said he is.”I breathe out a slow sigh. As much as I’d hoped Alpha Leo would have more positive news to bring, Alpha Leo’s words are only confirming what I’ve previously assumed, much to my disappointment. “How do you know this?” I ask. “I saw him emerge from the edge of the woods while I was at the watchto

    Spencer's POVAs I lead my warriors boldly into the night, I feel more determined than I’ve ever felt before. I'm well accustomed to hatred. To loathing. To the sort of burning fury that aches like hot coals in the pit of my stomach, a relentless pain that consumes my every waking thought. Such anger is not unfamiliar to me. But the sheer volume of it I’m experiencing now, knowing that Elder Jet is out there somewhere holding Ivy hostage and hoping to topple the entire Lycian Kingdom in one fell swoop…A quick death would be too kind a fate for Elder Jet. I want to pick him apart slowly and excruciatingly. I want to feel his blood between my fingers and to hear every scream of agony. I want to invent new depths of suffering just for him. “Be ready, soldiers!” I say, keeping my voice hushed as I look back at my army. Gamma Everly and I are leading the troops onward. We move silently and swiftly, scanning the trees for any signs of threat. The trees are tall, branches stretching upw

    Spencer's POVNow that we know how we want to move forward, things are quick to fall into place. The centurion who gave us the tip has fallen out of sight completely–I’m assuming that by now he’s getting the medical treatment he needs. I’ve mind linked all the surviving centurions to bring their search parties back to the barracks, too, and now I’m just watching the last remaining warriors trickle back into our camp. The plan is simple. We aim to strike first, and to strike with such overwhelming brute force that no matter his schemes, Elder Jet will be left completely and utterly unable to recover. “If we move through the woods along here, I think we can follow the natural curve of the river without detection,” Gamma Everly says slowly. She traces her fingers along the map and shows me her outlined path. “There’s enough space for all of us to move around the region relatively freely, but the topography will make it harder to corner us. We could use their camp location to our advan

    Spencer's POV“What happened?” I reach down and grab the fallen centurion’s shoulder firmly. Beneath my fingertips, the fabric at the joints of his armour is thick and bloody, and the warrior groans as I make contact. He’s not dead yet, though, and that gives me hope. With a little help from Gamma Everly, the two of us manage to bring the man up into a sitting position. He’s moving slowly and unsteadily, eyes clouded with unforetold terrors. I can see his limbs tremble and shake, the clear difficulty of every moment. “I… I was out surveying the area…” the centurion murmurs slowly. “And I was–and there was–” I still can’t see the full details of his face, but beneath his mask, his gaze is darting back and and forth anxiously. “It’s okay,” I tell him. “You’re safe here now.” Comforting people certainly isn’t my strong suit, but he has the information I need. And besides, it feels like something Ivy would do. She’d speak to him softly, gently. She’d nurture him carefully. She’d ma

    Spencer's POV“What do you need me to do?” Alpha Leo’s expression is solemn as he faces me. All at once, I can see just how deeply he’s changed over the course of today–just earlier this morning, he was breaking out of our dungeon, not caring who he killed or whose lives he drastically affected. He was ready to return to a wicked, traitorous man and help him take us all down. But now Alpha Jet looks at me with respect and admiration. There’s still a lot more work to do, but he’s reckoned with Elder Jet’s fundamental evils and cruelties. He’s not just ready to change–he’s at a point where he’s more than willing. I smile at him, taking his question as confirmation that he would indeed be interested in aiding the Lycan Army. I point to a large building on stilts right near the back of the barracks. Alpha Leo follows my gesture with his eyes, tilting his head in confusion as he looks the structure over carefully. “Is that… a grain silo?” He asks. I smile. “We’ve got a herd of cattle

    Spencer's POVAs the centurions lead their recruited parties out into the distant woods, I can feel the cold hand of horror slowly clamping around my heart. Of course, my main goal with sending out these search parties is to determine just how much of a threat Elder Jet truly is right now. Of course that’s what I’m trying to do. But in sending out all of these patrols, there’s something else I may be able to figure out, too. I’m hoping against hope that one of the parties will be able to figure out where Ivy is. But with that hope, there’s fear, too. What if they find Ivy, but it’s too late? What if all I can rescue now is her corpse? Or what if she’s alive, but broken and hurt beyond measure? I don’t want to see her injured. She’s been through so much–I don’t know how many more traumas she can take. Especially with the baby. Oh, Moon Goddess above, please protect Ivy and my baby. The warriors that aren’t members of any of the search parties spread through the forest, lying in

    Spencer's POVAs Gamma Everly and I walk through the amassed ranks of the full might of the Lycan Army, all I can think about is Ivy. Where is she? What’s happening to her? I have no way of getting into contact with her–what if Elder Jet did something? How would I know? There’s a part of me that wants to take Elder Jet up on his offer of surrendering, if only to guarantee Ivy’s security. But I can’t do that. I can’t trade away my kingdom for her. If I did, what sort of king would I be? Besides, I wouldn’t put it past Elder Jet to break his end of a hostage exchange. Alpha Leo is the only piece we have to trade back, but Elder Jet doesn’t seem too attached to his spies, likely for this exact reason. No. The only way to ensure Ivy’s continuous and lasting security is to fight for it myself, tooth and nail and wickedly sharp claw. I can’t let anything bad happen to her. I lock eyes with Gamma Everly as we complete our sweep of the battalions. We have a massive military, easily big

My hands feel like they're made of gelatin, and I can’t force myself to move them how I want to. My knuckles unclench, and my fingers are as useless as limp noodles. Elder Jet lets out a cold chuckle and pulls away from me. He takes a couple steps back, clearly enjoying the sight of me doing my very best to regain control of my body. I’m doing everything in my power to try and suppress the potion’s effects, but what can I do, really? I can feel it coursing through my body, bubbling into my stomach before being absorbed through the lining and into my bloodstream like some sort of sick, infested stain. I lie back on the ground, chest heaving. Grass tickles the back of my neck, and I can feel the particles of dirt clinging to my skin. I have no control right now. I don’t have anything.
