Betty POV

"Move away from me!"

The words rip out of my throat, but they do not sound human. They sound like bones grinding together under a heavy boot.

Every single vertebrae in my spine is twisting. It feels like someone is hammering iron rods directly into my lower back, forcing my ribs to crack outward. My skin is too tight. My clothes feel like burning plastic against my flesh. This is not a full shift. Tola is pushing, clawing at the inside of my ribs, but she is stu

    Mitchell POV“We are hostages,” I say. My voice is too quiet for the room, but it cuts right through the noise of my guards shuffling their feet. “Let’s not call it anything else.”Luka slams his fist against the heavy oak table. The wood cracks. A tiny splinter embeds itself into his palm, and a drop of dark blood wells up. He does not even blink. He is staring at the eastern wall, his eyes completely bloodshot. He can smell his mate from here, somewhere deep in the sapphire kingdom, but the iron bars on the windows keep him pinned.“They think we took him,” Luka says. His throat sounds raw, like he has been swallowing sand for a week. “They think we smashed the King’s carriage.”“I know what they think,” I say. I stand up, my boots clicking rhythmically against the stone floor. I count five paces to the door, then five paces back. “They find a broken carriage on the tarmac. Ki

    Betty POVThe air in the bedroom tasted like heavy metal and burnt sugar. Elia had been in here. I could smell the grease from the tray she left on the side table, but the scent of her skin was already fading under the thick, suffocating musk of the male on the mattress.Adriel was dead to the world. He lay flat on his front, his jaw jammed against the pillow, his throat letting out a wet, rattling snore that vibrated through the floorboards.My skin felt raw. April had finally stopped drawing on my reserves, her internal light settling back into my bones after hours of stitching my torn tissue together. I was healed, but my stomach felt like an empty pit.I ignored the male. I walked over to the silver dome on the table and lifted it.Steak. Cold potatoes swimming in congealed fat. I did not use a fork. I tore into the meat with my teeth, swallowing the chunks whole, barely chewing as the juices ran down my chin. I left the second plate covered. A

    Mitchell POV"We move tonight, and we do not stop for anyone," I bark, slamming my palm onto the wooden table.Kinslee eyes me from across the cramped cabin, her fingers twitching against the edge of her cloak. "King Darwin is still a day away from his own borders, Mitchell. You are rushing into a trap.""Darwin does not dictate my pace," I say, my voice dropping an octave. "We know where the Sapphire Kingdom is. We have the coordinates. We waste no more time."Priestess Nancy steps forward from the shadows of the hearth, her long robes dragging on the dusty floorboards. "There are five covens inside the Sapphire Kingdom, Prince Mitchell. You cannot simply smash your way through the gates. But we have a connection to one of them."I tilt my head, my eyes narrowing. "What kind of connection?""My niece," Nancy says, her voice trembling slightly. "She is mated to a Sapphire Lycan. She joined the third coven there to stay close to him. I manage

    Adriel POV"Get your filthy hands off my clothes before I snap your fingers backwards."I do not look at the blonde wolf clawing at my sleeve. I do not look at the three others blocking the gravel path outside the training grounds. Ever since the bomb went off, the pack house has been crawling with them. They smile. They tilt their heads to show their necks. They track my scent through the hallways like starving dogs outside a butcher shop."We only wanted to show you the northern boundary, Alpha," the blonde whispers. Her eyelashes flutter against her cheeks. "The woods get confusing after dark.""Move."I take one step forward, my boots crunching hard into the stones.Elia steps up beside me, her shoulder clipping mine. The air around us turns thick and ice-cold in a fraction of a second. It is the Luna aura, heavy and suffocating, dropping over the path like a lead weight.The blonde wolf stops breathing. Her knees hit the gravel w

    Betty POV"Get out of my face before I rip your tongue out," I snap, my voice cutting through the humid air of the Blaze Kingdom training ground.Jianna freezes, her fake smile stretching thin across her jaw. "Excuse me?""You heard me," I say, stepping closer until our toes touch on the red dirt. "You think because I am a guest in this mansion, I do not see the way you look at my mate? I smelled your cheap perfume on our sheets before I even opened the bedroom door.""Lottie was the one in your bed, Betty, not me," she says, her voice dropping into a smooth, defensive purr. "I was just trying to be traditional. We value honesty here.""Then be honest about the fact that you told her to do it," I spit back, my fists clenching at my sides. "You wanted her to take the fall so you could play the comforting friend. You wanted to slide into my spot the second my back was turned."The entire dirt oval goes dead silent.Dozens of unmated fem

    Nina POV“Drink it before it gets cold,” I say.I slam the heavy ceramic bowl onto the scarred timber table. The gray kitten under the stove doesn’t even flinch. It just keeps licking its paws, eyes locked on the puddle of spilled milk near my boots.Jethro doesn’t move. His hand stays wrapped around the handle of the pram. He stares out of the kitchen window, his jaw tight enough to crack a tooth.“He is sleeping,” Jethro says.His voice is too low. It has been like this for three days. Ever since Mitchell took the elite warriors into the northern ridge to hunt for Novalee, the castle has felt like an empty tomb. The silence is a physical weight. It sits on my chest every time I wake up in the dark.“He needs to eat,” I say, crossing my arms over my apron. “And you need to stop pacing the floorboards like a caged beast. You are going to wear a hole straight through to th

    Betty POV"Stop," Adriel snarled, his fingers digging into my hips before he threw me off his lap.My skin burned exactly where his hands had been. The rejection tasted like hot copper in the back of my throat. I staggered back against the cold stone wall of the corridor, my chest h
