Chapter 21 Rayden's help

CASSANDRA After I concluded that the pendant wasn’t in the backpack, I discarded it and looked around the room I’d been confined to. There was a stack of boxes in the far corner I hadn’t noticed when I’d first arrived. I rushed over to them and wasted no time. I rummaged through the closest one, and once I finished rooting through it, I moved on to the next. I continued this way for nearly an hour. In the process of searching my belongings, a pair of servants took turns delivering more boxes. With every one, I prayed to the Moon Goddess that the pendant had just gotten misplaced in a pocket or bag, and when it wasn’t in any of the spots, my frustration grew. Finally, the servants stopped arriving, and I began to give up. My mother’s necklace wasn’t here. Thankfully, one thing was certain- the pendant hadn’t been found by the Alpha King’s guards. If it had, things wouldn’t be nearly as quiet as they were now. If my true identity had been revealed, Asher Collins would have been cr

Chapter 22 Elope?

CASSANDRARayden suddenly grabbed my hand, and when I whipped around to stare at him, his eyes bore into mine intensely, so much that my heart began to race.“Let me go with you, Cassy,” he insisted, and his eyes grew sorrowful, as if he was a young boy who’d lost something he couldn’t recover again. “Please.”My eyes widened as I tried to wrap my mind around what was happening.“Rayden…” I uttered.As Rayden stared at me with his large brown eyes, a feeling swept through me along with understanding. Asher’s earlier words in the meeting room played through my mind. The Alpha King had quipped that the prince of the Wild Crawlers fancied me. At the time, his words had been a massive shock, but as I stood here in the garden, I began to suspect that Asher may have been right.But I didn’t want to believe it.At the time, I never could have imagined that Rayden could see me like that. I’d always been something of a friend to him, as well as a healer. Just as I’d done with countless others

Chapter 23 Her sorrow

ASHER“You don’t understand!” Cassandra shouted, and then suddenly, she broke into a fit of heavy sobs. The healer’s knees buckled slightly as she cried, and her chest heaved as she fought to breathe. Her copper hair fell into her face and her cheeks flushed pink.I stood there, completely stunned and unsure of what to do.For the briefest of seconds, she reminded me of Cora.Cora had once said the exact same phrase to me once many years ago when she thought I’d lost a pendant she once gave me.It had been the first time I’d been allowed to join the Crescent Pack’s hunting group, and furthermore, the first time I’d been allowed to enter the hunting zone of the forest in Anemond. I’d admittedly been a little nervous, but Cora was absolutely terrified. She was always looking out for my well-being and cared so deeply for me, which meant the world.I remembered putting on a brave face, but that wasn’t enough for Cora. So, one day, she came over to my house and presented me with a pendant.

Chapter 24 Leave for Anemond

CASSANDRANight came and I couldn’t get any sleep. Too many thoughts plagued my mind, and no matter how many times I tried to settle in and get some rest, I just couldn’t. I tossed and turned like mad as images of smoke danced in my mind.My house was gone and along with it was my mother’s pendant.After a while, I glanced over at Finnick. I hadn’t told him about the fire. I didn’t want to worry him when there was already so much to deal with. His face was peaceful as he slept, and it brought a smile to my face. At the end of the day, we were mostly safe and sound. I was grateful to at least have my boy with me.“It’s us against the world, baby,” I whispered, and then I laid back down and closed my eyes.The next morning came faster than I wanted it to, and I awoke to the sound of a knock at the door. I pulled myself out of bed and carefully walked over to the door so I wouldn’t wake Finnick.I opened the door to find Amalia on the other side. The maid smiled at me and then I noticed

Chapter 25 Where was she from?

CASSANDRA The Alpha King’s tone told me all I needed to know. This was not a request, it was an order, and it was one I couldn’t refuse. “Oh,” I remarked quietly, and then I nodded. “Yes, Your Majesty. Thank you.” Asher released his hold on my arm and then nodded back before gesturing to the luxury car. “Let’s go then, Mrs. Keller.” My name on his lips sounded so strange, but I couldn’t let myself freeze up now. I wanted nothing more than for him to call me by my true name, but that could never happen again. I followed the Alpha King to the car, and once we were there, a servant held the door open for us. Just as we were climbing in, I heard a familiar voice calling my name. “Cassy!” Marley yelled, and when I turned around, I saw her running toward me with great speed. Jasper wasn’t too far behind, and a smile broke out on my face. I met her halfway, and she threw her arms around me when we met. We hugged each other tightly, and once we parted, Jasper and I exchanged nods. “Oh,

Chapter 26 Merliscire Palace

CASSANDRAI peered up at the clock at the front of the car. The display read noon, and despite the ride being long, it seemed like it should have been much later.When I peered out the window, a strange feeling formed in the pit of my stomach.Merliscire Palace. It was just as magnificent as ever, with tall, pillars constructed of white marble that glinted with specks of gold, a surplus of long windows, and expansive balconies that gave a beautiful view of the perfectly-manicured grounds. The grass was a lustrous shade of emerald, and the driveways were paved in rich red brick.At the front of the palace was an enormous gold fountain. It was in the shape of a wolf with its head raised high toward the moon. It had been crafted centuries ago and was meant to pay tribute to the Moon Goddess. The water splashed high into the air and shimmered on its way down.Anemond may have been the source of my nightmares, but I couldn’t deny there was something beautiful and magical about the palace.

Chapter 27 Alpha's study

CASSANDRAAdalyn’s eyes lingered on me for a while, and for a moment, I felt like prey. The royal family all seemed to have that effect. They were the predators while the rest of us were just lucky to survive.Asher’s wife was even more beautiful than I’d remembered her to be. She was tall, with deeply tanned skin, straight dark brown hair that fell to her middle back, and an angular face with high cheekbones. Her amber eyes were framed by long, dark eyelashes, and her full lips were painted a dark red to match her dress.Those cat-like eyes stared into mine and studied me carefully. She was smiling, but there was no kindness in her gaze. A shiver traveled down my spine. There was no way for Adalyn to know my true identity, and yet, I couldn’t help but fear her.“Yes,” Asher spoke finally. “This is Cassandra Keller and her son, Finnick. She is a healer from the Wild Crawler Pack.”“The Wild Crawler Pack,” Adalyn repeated back, and her tone dripped with disgust. She was still just as s

Chapter 28 Three months

CASSANDRAA lump formed in my throat in response to Asher’s words. What did the Alpha King want to talk to me about?I forced down my fear and simply nodded. “Yes, Your Majesty.”I glanced down at Finnick, and my son nodded as well. He took my hand and then I led him over to the meeting area of the study. Finnick sat first, and then I took a seat to the right of him, closer to Asher. Even though I knew nothing bad would happen, I wanted to put myself in a place of protection just in case.Moments later, a knock was heard at the doors.“Come in,” Asher called out in a regal tone. The doors opened to reveal a pair of servants holding trays. They quickly hustled over to us, set the trays down on the large ebony coffee table, and then bowed respectfully at Asher.“Do you require anything else at the moment, Your Majesty?” one of the servants, an older red-headed woman asked politely.Asher shook his head. “Not at the moment. Leave us, please.”“Yes, Your Majesty,” the pair replied in unis

Chapter 29 Her secret

ASHERWhy did I trust Cassandra Keller?That was a great question. But I was completely surprised when the healer asked it, and even more surprised when I realized her question had a point.I hadn’t told anyone about my ailment apart from Lancel. My most trusted guard had been attempting to investigate the mark for me, but it hadn’t been going well. Besides him, no one else knew I had the disease. Not the royal healers or even Adalyn.So, why was I willing to entrust this secret to a healer from a mostly forgotten Pack on the border?In all honesty, I didn’t know why, but something in my gut told me she could be trusted. When I’d shown her my mark back in Alpha Gareth’s meeting room, I hadn’t thought about it twice. Trusting her felt natural as if she were someone I’d known for years.But in reality, it was unnatural, strange even.Why would I trust a village healer?So, I reached into my mind and crafted an answer for Cassandra Keller that seemed passable. I told her it was nothing,

Chapter 30 Reunion with her nanny

CASSANDRAI could only blame myself for my own carelessness. Finnick’s eyes. Why hadn’t I found a better excuse for their coloring, and why had I let myself tense up so much when the Alpha King had inquired about them?I should have been more prepared, more calm… but everything about Asher Collins’ presence set every nerve in my body on fire. I was a deer, cornered by his steel-like gaze.I couldn’t even keep my grip on a simple teacup. When it shattered all over the floor of the king’s study, I found myself wishing I’d shattered with it to avoid the embarrassment of facing him.“I’m so sorry, Your Majesty!” I cried, and then I lept to my feet and started collecting the pieces from the floor. All the while, my forehead broke out in sweat, and heat spread through my cheeks. This was beyond mortifying.“It’s okay,” Asher muttered as I cleaned around the room. “It was an accident.”Yet, his tone said otherwise. I’d made a huge mistake. I’d broken palace property and probably burned the A
