Betty POV

"Look at them," April whispered. Her voice cut through the dark of my mind like a blunt blade.

My chest squeezed. The dark mist around us shifted, pulling up old images. I stared at the two men standing in the centre of my own head. Adriel and Mitchell. My mates. My chest ached with a physical, heavy weight.

"They do not look the same to me," April said. She pacing inside my head. Her claws clicked against the floor of my memory. "They have the same blood. But t

    Novalee POV"Open the door, Novalee."My dad, the man I called my father for my entire life, stands outside the bedroom door. Only he is not my father. The man standing three inches from me is a random guard. The real king of the lycans is downstairs. And according to him, I am his daughter. I am the princess of the very pack that hunted my kind for centuries."I cannot open it yet," I say. My voice cracks against the heavy wood of the door. "Give me five minutes.""The king is already waiting in the Great Hall," Luka says from behind me. His large hand hooks around my waist, his palm burning hot through my thin cotton top. He pulls my back against his chest. I can hear the rapid thud of his heart. He is a lycan, and he can smell the sheer terror leaking out of my pores. "He is getting impatient, Novalee. The whole pack is waiting.""Let them wait," I whisper. I turn around in his arms, my fingers gripping the rough material of his collar. "Luka, y

    Betty POV"Open the moon kingdom crate first," Novalee says, her fingers twitching against her faded skirts."The children are getting restless," Nina adds. She shifts a toddler from one hip to the other, her eyes darting toward the heavy oak door of the great hall. "If we do not give them something to look at, they will tear the tapestries down.""Let them try," Treasure says, leaning back against a stone pillar. She cracks her knuckles, one by one. "The guards need the exercise anyway."I do not look at the stack of velvet box linings or the mountains of gold silk ribbons piling up on the rug. My focus is entirely on the glowing white sphere resting in the palm of my hand. The moon stone is massive, easily the size of a grapefruit, and the moment my skin contacts the surface, a bright pulse of silver light shoots through my veins. It does not burn. It feels like ice water pouring into an open wound."You can store power inside it," Novalee whispe

    Betty POV"The rogue lycans are lining up at the castle gates, Queen Betty."Leonardo' father hit the stone floor on both knees. His head stayed down. The heavy oak doors of the dining hall were still swinging behind him, clicking rhythmically against the frame.Adriel did not stop chewing his toast. He just watched the old man grovel."Get up," I said. My voice sounded thin. I had been asleep for forty-eight hours, and my throat felt like sandpaper. "Why are they at the gates? Is someone bleeding? Are the silver burns back?""No one is bleeding," Adriel said. He set his fork down with a sharp clink against the porcelain. He wiped his mouth with a linen napkin, his eyes fixed on me. "I put him in charge of the perimeter while you were out cold. The rogues you healed two days ago? They did not run back to the woods."I stared at him. The kids were sitting right next to me, their small hands gripping their silver spoons."They want to s

    Mitchell POV"If she pleases you, your majesty. You are welcome to take her as your chosen one."The older woman's voice didn't waver.That was the sickening part.I didn't move. Didn't look at the woman standing in the tent entrance. I kept my eyes on the teenage girl trembling across from me, the food tray rattling in her grip hard enough that broth sloshed over the rim and hit the dirt floor in fat drops.She was going to drop it.I crossed the tent in four steps and caught the tray before it went.The girl flinched so hard she bit her own lip."Sit," I said.She didn't move."I am not asking you to do anything. Sit down before your legs give out."She sat on the edge of the nearest crate. Her knuckles were bone-white. Her eyes were fixed on a point somewhere near my boots, and she was breathing in short, shallow pulls that weren't getting her enough air.Fifteen. Maybe younger.

    Mitchell POV"We move in five minutes, or I leave you behind to rot," I say, snapping my leather holdall shut.Ian does not blink. He just tightens the laces on his combat boots. "The men are ready, Mitchell. Stop pacing. You are wearing a hole in the tarmac.""She has been unconscious for forty-eight hours, Ian." I grip the edge of the iron weapon rack. My knuckles go white. "Two days. The curse is broken, the heat has cleared from her skin, and she still will not open her eyes.""She forced two ancient entities to bow at the same time," Ian says, his voice flat and steady. "Her body is resetting. Let her sleep.""I do not like leaving her while she is vulnerable.""She is not vulnerable," Ian grunts, throwing a spare dagger into his pack. "The courtyard is practically blocked solid with delivery crates. Every alpha from here to the border is sending tributes because they can breathe again. She has got more security than th

    Betty POV"Novalee, drop the shield right now!"I roar the words through the mindlink, forcing the mental command through the thick, suffocating wall of her panic.Novalee flinches. Her hands tremble against the air, her knuckles white as she struggles to hold the shimmering dome of energy above our heads. A violent shudder ripples through her entire body.Above us, the sky is nothing but a roaring sheet of flame. Luca's magic slams into the barrier, turning the transparent sphere into a cage of blinding, crackling fire. The heat bakes down through the glass-like shield, scorching the grass at my feet and turning the air into pure petrol fumes."Betty, no!" Novalee gasps aloud, her voice cracking under the pressure. "The fire will consume us!""Drop it!" I snap, my voice cutting through the roar of the blaze. "Now!"She cuts the power. The shield vanishes into thin air with a sharp, static pop.The massive wall of fire plunges

    Betty’s POV"You are nothing but a broken genetic mistake, Betty, and you will not embarrass this family at the royal ball tonight."My father slammed both of his heavy fists onto the wooden kitchen table. The wood groaned under the impact, rattling the ceramic coffee mugs and sending a splash of d

    Betty’s POV"You are going to frighten the locals if you keep projecting your scent like a weapon," I said.The stranger did not flinch. He stood by the rusted flank of the pack jeep, his frame blocking the driver-side door. His eyes were the sharp, smoked-gray of a non-royal Lycan, completely devo

    Betty’s POV"Get on your knees, wolfless freak, or I will break your legs myself."Madeline’s voice sliced through the damp, heavy air of the Blue Claw storage pavilion. She was balanced on the balls of her patent-leather heels, her pink lips curved into a cruel, perfect line. In her manicured hand
