"Remus!" Katrina's voice makes Jarl blink, while Remus keeps his eyes closed, his strength quickly waning with the silver bullet lodged in his chest, and he retreats back into Ragnar's mind, allowing him to take his human form once again.

Katrina's breath slows at that moment. Everything is silent and dark around her as she sees her severely wounded partner on the ground. Akira uses all her strength to cut the tapes binding Katrina's feet and hands and struggles to get up to reach Ragnar, blood gushing from his chest. She tries to scream for help, but her voice doesn't come out, all the words getting stuck in her throat, the drug that Jarl made her inhale is too strong, and Akira, although she tries to emerge, doesn't quite succeed.

Katrina cradles her partner's head in her arms. He is still alive, though gravely injured and unconscious.

Jarl looks up and stares at Katrina, who is deeply distressed about Ragnar, but unaware that he is also injured, his left arm has been torn off by

    A silver bullet hits Katrina's shoulder with great force. She is thrown back a few meters due to the impact that catches her by surprise.Her head spins as she tries to grab hold of one of the branches. Her only concern now is her puppy in her womb and what might happen to it if she falls from this height into the cliff. She never liked walking through these woods and right now she regrets not having explored them earlier to have an escape option."You're disgusting, damnable!" Her half-sister Lizzie's voice echoes in her head. All the remorse she had claimed to feel is completely false, and now she realizes it. "Did you think I was going to give you a clear path? You purposely married Jarl because you know he loves me. You did it to hurt me and push me away from him, but it won't work, Katrina. Jarl and I will get married, whether you accept it or not. I will be the moon of the Alba Noctis pack when he becomes the alpha. We will have many children and be very happy."Katrina is still

    Two months earlier...Katrina walks hurriedly through the corridors of the old castle towards the parking lot with the exam results in her hands."Slow down, Katrina. Let me catch my breath, please. It's impossible to keep up with your pace," her friend says, carrying a stack of documents and folders in both hands. "At least now you know the cause of your discomfort. Take it easy.""I'm so excited, Amber," she responds, placing her hands on her flat belly as if she could feel the heartbeat of her puppy inside. Her friend rolls her eyes. "Can you imagine? A puppy of mine and Jarl's, the future Alpha of Alba Noctis!""Well, of course I can imagine," her friend approaches her and also places her hand on her belly, trying to feel the same thing Katrina is feeling, but without success. "That's what can happen when you have relations with your mate, right?"Amber quickly removes her hand from her belly as if something is burning her, then continues walking while Katrina looks at her with a

    It's been three nights since Jarl hasn't gone to the Grimlore mansion to sleep, but he often misses home due to many meetings or trips in which he must participate before being declared alpha of the pack, which according to Katrina's understanding, will be in three more moons.Thirty minutes later, Katrina parks her old car in the parking lot of Sofisthy's offices and takes the elevator that goes to the floor where her husband's office is located. All employees look at her strangely when the metal doors open. Her casual attire and unkempt appearance contrast completely with the sumptuous and immaculate office with polished floors, high ceilings, and to top it off, perfectly uniformed and groomed assistants. Katrina is wearing light pink denim shorts and a pink t-shirt with a heart emoji design on the chest, with white athletic sandals. Her long, blond hair is tied in a messy ponytail that lets some strands fall on her face. She is wearing no makeup. She has never liked using them be

She had been wandering the streets for hours until she called her friend, who came to her rescue immediately.Katrina remains silent throughout the entire journey, her gaze lost on the road, and Amber prefers not to overwhelm her with silly questions, for now.

    It is impossible to continue hiding what happens when everyone starts to move around the house.Rubí and Paula wake up disoriented by the unusual movement in the mansion's hallways, they go out to look and as soon as they realize that Ragnar's room door is open and there are several people inside, they run there."What's going on, brother?!" Rubí shouts. "Where is Katrina?!"Paula tries to restrain Ragnar, but she can't. He is too nervous.Ragnar can't stand to watch the video on the guard's phone, he takes a deep breath before leaving. He won't allow that man to harm Katrina. He said he would never allow it to happen again over his dead body, and he means it. Tonight one of them will die."Son, please," Paula tries to stop him. "Let the guards take care of it, please don't go in that state. You need to calm down, you're too nervous."Ragnar looks at her for a few seconds before leaving. Julián runs after him. Inside his car, he receives a message from an unknown number, with a photo

    The lights of the Shadowfang mansion are gradually fading and Jarl knows that the moment he has been waiting for has finally arrived. There are two guards wandering around that area, weak omegas, who don't worry him too much, because he knows he can go unnoticed with the potion and that if something goes out of control, they are not enemies to him. He walks stealthily a few meters along the side of the wall when he overhears one of them saying he needs to go to the bathroom. That moment is perfect to move forward. He runs to the door and when he tries to open it, it opens without much difficulty. He looks cautiously to make sure there is no one else inside. The whole place is already semi-dark, but he can see that it is the laundry section of the house. He enters and after scanning everything quickly with his eyes, he goes up the main staircase to reach Katrina on the second floor.He opens each door very slowly to avoid alerting anyone and to see who is there, until he reaches the

    Inside the cells of the Alba Noctis pack, Jarl hits the wall hard upon receiving the news from Gabriel. He is very nervous. His friend looks at him resignedly."You know that what you are asking for is dangerous, and they won't risk their lives for nothing," Gabriel says, trying to keep his voice low. "You decide, either give them what they want or stay here and wait for your trial.""That's too much money, Gabriel," Jarl yells, angry. "I'll be left with nothing, it's all I have left. They already took everything from me."There is a deep hatred in Jarl's eyes when he thinks of Ragnar and Katrina. Gabriel says nothing, but he knows that Jarl has some plan in mind and there is no human power that will make him back down."I need to get out of here. I want Katrina and that damn man to suffer for this. I want them to regret coming back and planning all of this against me.""Don't you think it's time to walk away? Don't do something that will drag you down even further, Jarl," Gabriel fee

    Ragnar and Katrina, along with the elder council members, spend a long time in the boardroom to clarify some points, especially those related to those four. They do not want anyone to get away with all the harm they did to Katrina. When they finally leave the room, all the employees turn to look at her, but she is too mentally exhausted now to give them any kind of explanation. She will do it tomorrow when she is calmer and has rested enough. Ragnar gives some instructions to the assistant and she nods. She knows it's not a good time, so the assistant asks everyone to return to their workplaces and they do so. Katrina walks towards the elevator, ready to go back home, when a familiar figure appears before her, about five steps away. "Amber?" Katrina can't hide her excitement at seeing her after so long. She looks different, but it's her, she knows it, she can feel it. She walks up to her to hug her and they both embrace tightly. Amber is crying like never before. "Amber, my frie
