Chapter Title: Trust and DaggersLAURA's POV I stood there, eyeing the rogues, my patience running out like sand in an hourglass. The moonlight filtering through the trees cast an eerie glow over everything, making the situation feel even more tense. The rogue leader’s eyes bore into mine, but there was no fear in them—only defiance.“I’m giving you one last chance,” I said, my voice steady, though the threat in it was clear. “Tell me where Ryker is.”The leader smirked, an arrogant curl at the corner of his lips. “You can threaten us all you want, but we’re not talking. Ryker’s our leader. We don’t betray our own.”Silence followed, thick and heavy, as if the whole forest was holding its breath. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Augustus watching, arms crossed, a slight nod signaling to me that he was ready if things went south. And we both knew it was going to.I gave the signal.Everything happened at once—the team lunged forward, and so did the rogues. The forest erupted into chaos,

Chapter Title: Unspoken VulnerabilityLAURA'S POV Everything around me was quiet. Too quiet. My body felt like it was submerged in something thick, heavy, and suffocating. I couldn’t move, and my mind felt distant—disconnected from everything happening around me.Was I… dying?Suddenly, I heard Augustus’ voice, though it sounded far away, like it was coming from the other side of a closed door. He was saying something, but I couldn’t make out the words. There was urgency in his tone, though, that much I could tell.I wasn’t sure how much time passed before I felt myself being lifted, cradled in someone’s arms. The scent hit me first—Augustus. That same strong, earthy scent I’d come to associate with him. There was a rush of movement as he carried me, and I tried to force my eyes open, to move, to say something, but my body wouldn’t listen. Everything was numb, like I was trapped in a dream I couldn’t wake up from.When we stopped, I felt the cool air shift around me, and then Augustus' v

Necessary Sacrifice(Sonia’s POV)It had been a year since Laura and Maxwell disappeared. A year of hunting for them, chasing down every lead only to come up empty-handed. Every time we thought we were close, they vanished like smoke in the wind. The frustration simmered beneath the surface of the pack, threatening to boil over. The elders were growing impatient, the pack restless, and the sceptre—our symbol of power—was weakening.The sceptre’s strength relied on blood. It was a cruel necessity, a hidden tradition that only a few of us knew about. The pack needed to believe that the sceptre’s power was eternal, unyielding, but the truth was far darker. Once a year, a pack member had to be sacrificed for the sceptre to retain its strength. No one could know.And this year, it was time again.I stood in the dimly lit council chamber, the air thick with tension. Magnus and Alex were seated across from me, their faces hard and calculating. We all knew what needed to be done, but the questio

Chapter Title: Eavesdropping and Discoveries (Laura’s POV)I was swimming in darkness. It wasn’t an uncomfortable kind of darkness, but a strange, quiet one that lulled me deeper into unconsciousness. I felt a warmth near me, like a protective barrier. I couldn’t move, but I felt safe.Then, I started to hear voices. They were muffled at first, but gradually, they became clearer. Uncle Louis? Augustus? And Henry... What were they saying? It sounded like they were arguing. Something about me? I wasn’t sure. All I knew was that I wanted to keep sleeping, but their loud voices were dragging me back to reality.“She hasn’t woken up yet,” I heard Augustus say, his voice tinged with frustration.“She’s been unconscious for three hours! You should get a second opinion. The doctor said it was just exhaustion, but I’m not convinced,” Uncle Louis replied, worry thick in his tone.“I’m responsible for her fainting,” Augustus said gruffly.As I hovered on the edge of consciousness, I heard Henr

Chapter Title: A Year Without You*(Laura’s POV)*It’s been one year since I last saw or heard from Maxwell. An entire year of silence, no letters, no telephone calls, no messages—nothing. The weight of his absence clings to me like a heavy fog, suffocating my every thought. He promised to keep in touch, to let me know he was safe, but it’s been too long. I can’t help but wonder if something terrible has happened to him. Has he forgotten me? Or worse, has he been captured?I sit on the edge of my bed, staring out of the small window of the golden pack I now call home. It’s a far cry from the freedom we felt when we first escaped the Black Pearl Pack together. I remember every moment as if it were yesterday—the way the moonlight lit up the forest as we ran through the trees, hearts pounding in sync, the thrill of escaping that hellhole. Those were some of the best days of my life.The memories flood back to me, bittersweet and beautiful. Maxwell was my anchor, my strength when I though

Chapter Title: The Truth Unveiled*(Augustus’ POV)*The sun had barely risen when I heard the knock on my door. The quiet of the early morning was broken, and I knew immediately who it was. John, my most trusted investigator, had finally returned with the information I had been waiting for. For weeks, I had been suspicious of Lawi—or Laura, as I was beginning to suspect—and I needed the truth. Her strength, her boldness, and the strange aura that surrounded her had kept me curious, even as she tried to push me away."Enter," I called, my voice low as I sat in my study.John stepped in, his face unreadable as always. He had never been one for small talk, and I respected him for it. He came straight to the point, always efficient.“My King,” he said, bowing slightly before standing at attention. “I have gathered the information you requested about the woman you know as Lawi.”I leaned forward, my elbows resting on the desk as I prepared myself for what I was about to hear. I had a feeli

Chapter Title: Realizations and Revelations*(Augustus' POV)*I stood by the window, staring out into the dark expanse of the forest, the weight of the truth pressing heavily on my chest. The room was dimly lit, casting long shadows on the walls, but I hardly noticed. My mind was racing, replaying everything John had told me about Laura—her true identity, her tragic past, and the vengeance she was seeking.And now, as I pieced everything together, something else began to surface, something that had been bothering me for weeks. The day Lawi—or Laura, as I now knew—had mentioned that name in her sleep. It hadn’t meant anything to me at the time, but now, in the light of all this new information, it made perfect sense.“Laura,” I murmured to myself, testing the name on my tongue. “The Alpha of the Black Pearl Pack. The same Laura who’s been hunting down rogues across the region.”I clenched my fists at my sides, the pieces of the puzzle falling into place. There had been rumors for month

Chapter Title: A Silent Goodbye*(Laura’s POV)*The golden pack was never supposed to be a place I’d stay for long. It served its purpose, but now that King Augustus knows about me, my presence here feels dangerous—uncomfortable, even. I’ve risked too much already, and staying any longer would only complicate things. Augustus may not know everything, but he knows enough, and I can’t afford for him to dig deeper into who I really am or what I’m after.With every quiet footstep I take through the halls, the weight of my decision presses down on me. I pass by the rooms, the training grounds, and the grand halls where warriors would gather. All these places have seen me, but I’ve kept my distance, remaining an outsider even when I was on the inside. Now, I’m just a shadow, disappearing as quietly as I came.I pull my bag over my shoulder, the only luggage I’m taking with me. It’s not much, just enough to get by for now. I can’t afford to be weighed down by unnecessary things. Besides, I’v
