MELISSA I stirred into consciousness, the gentleness of the early morning sun filtering through the blinds and bathing the room in warm golden slivers. I rolled on the pillow and smiled at Rico, sleeping peacefully beside me. Dark lashes rested against his cheekbones, his steady breathing, his powerful chest moving rise and fall steadily.My mate. The Alpha of the Lycan Pack.I couldn't resist, leaning forward to brush a light finger against his jawline. He stirred at my touch, his eyelids flashing open to reveal piercing gray eyes, clouded with sleep.A slow smile creased his lips. "Morning, beautiful," he muttered, his voice thick with sleep.I smiled. "Morning, sleepyhead."He chuckled, pulling me closer, his arms holding my waist tightly. "You're an early riser.""I woke up and found you sleeping peacefully. Couldn't help but admire the view," I teased.Rico hummed, his head going back to lay a soft kiss on my lips. I eased into it, the kiss slow and deep, the warmth growing betw

MELISSAI stood on the eastern border, the scent of moist earth and pine in the crisp evening air. The patrol warriors were at attention, their eyes locked on me, anticipating my order. I scanned their faces, my chest swelling with pride at their self-control."Double the night shifts," I commanded, ny voice sharp. "I want scouts in front of every blind spot on the ridge. If you sense even a whiff of trouble, report directly to me or Alpha Rico."The head warrior, Grant, saluted. "Will do, Luna. We'll double our shifts immediately.""Good." I softened the voice. "Keep your wits about you, but don't overdo it. If something doesn't seem right, trust your instincts."Grant and the others nodded, making assenting noises before moving off into the dense forest.With orders in hand, I made my way back towards the pack house, my mate bond urging me to go towards Rico. I smiled a small smile as I quickened my step. It was a long day and I was ready cuddle with him, maybe catch a few quiet mom

MELISSAI staggered back to me and Rico's room in a daze. The night air brushed over my skin, but I didn't feel it. It was all far away—blurry, as if I was having a nightmare that I couldn't shake.I replayed the scene repeatedly. Rico. I remembered Lorinda.The way he'd looked at me with icy detachment.No. There had to be some mistake. There had to be a reason.I went into our bedroom, the scent of my mate surrounding me. It provided a thin margin of comfort, and I clung to it in desperate hope. The room remained as it had been that morning—untouched and unaltered.I moved on autopilot, stripping off my clothes and stepping into the shower. The warm water cascaded down my body, but it did nothing to wash away the ache in my chest. By the time I slipped into bed, my body was exhausted, but my mind refused to rest. He’ll come.He’ll explain everything, and I’ll forgive him.I lay there in the darkness, waiting, my eyes growing heavier with each passing second. Eventually, sleep

MELISSAI hated to admit it, but I was powerless to change my fate.I had tried—goddess, I had tried—to talk to Rico, to make him look at me, to force him to hear me out. But every time I got close, Lorinda made sure I was pulled back into the hell my life had turned into.It started with small humiliations—fetching water from the farthest well, scrubbing floors others had intentionally dirtied. Then it escalated. Harder tasks. Longer hours. Punishments doled out on a whim, most frequently at Lorinda's hands."You missed a spot," Lorinda had sneered one evening, tipping over the bucket of dirty water I had been using to scrub the floors of the main halls. "Do it again."I had clenched my fists, a storm of anger brewing in my chest. But what could she do? The guards were there, watching. The pack members turned away.So, I gulped down my pride and scrubbed.---I fell into a routine. I’d wake at dawn from the thin mattress in my square, windowless room. I’d pull on the coarse grey shi

RICOI wiped the sweat from my brow as I headed back toward my office. My body was aching, but my mind was preoccupied.Where was Melissa?*lIt was days since I had heard from her last.I needed to tell her about the notion that had been nagging him—a possible treaty with Alpha Troy. Melissa was always good at these types of things, better than I was sometimes. She was quick-witted, intelligent, and could perceive things I couldn't.I smiled half-heartedly. She would give me her honest opinion, let me know if it was a good or bad idea.But where had she been recently?My feet slowed. Had I seen her today?I frowned.Why did it seem like I hadn't seen her in—His hand was on the door handle, and suddenly all thoughts of Melissa disappeared.He went inside, and there was Lorinda. And just like that, everything else went away.It felt as if something heavy draped over my mind, snuffing out any stray thoughts. There was only her. Lorinda’s eyes lit up as she saw me. “You’re finally
