MARKED BY THE THREE ALPHAS Chapter Seventy Four
Lila POVThe first warning arrived three days after our return from Ironwood.The second came the following morning.By the end of the week, the council room felt less like a place of leadership and more like a war room.Every report that landed on our table painted the same picture.Shadowfang was growing.Fast.I stood beside the large map spread across the council table, staring at the red markers Ronan had placed across the eastern territories.There were too many.Far too many."Another one?" I asked quietly.Ronan nodded."A small rogue settlement near Blackwater Creek."My stomach sank."Joined willingly?"His expression told me the answer before he spoke."No."Silence settled over the room.The settlement wasn't the first.It probably wouldn't be the last.Finn Blackthorn had abandoned any pretense of diplomacy months ago.Every report described the same pattern.An ultimatum.Submission or destruction.Those who agreed were absorbed into Shadowfang.Those who refused disappe

Lila POVThe messenger arrived just after sunrise.I was halfway through breakfast when Maya burst into the dining hall, her cheeks flushed from running."Council room. Now."I immediately sat up straighter.Maya wasn't someone who panicked easily."What happened?""Neutral territory messenger."That got everyone's attention.Kade set down his coffee.Darius stopped eating.Ronan's expression sharpened instantly.Neutral territory messengers rarely brought casual news.They usually carried warnings, challenges, or opportunities.Sometimes all three.We reached the council room minutes later.A woman stood waiting near the large table.She wore dark leather armor marked with the symbol of a silver tree against a black background.Ironwood.Even I recognized it.The Ironwood Pack controlled one of the largest neutral territories in the region. They were powerful enough that no neighboring pack dared challenge them and respected enough that they often acted as mediators during disputes.

Lila POVThe map on the council table had grown considerably over the past month.I stood beside it, studying the inked borders that marked Bloodmoon's territory. What had once been a modest stretch of forest surrounding our compound now extended across valleys, rivers, and hunting grounds that belonged to allied packs.It was strange.For so long, Bloodmoon had simply been a refuge.A place for rogues.A place for wolves who didn't fit anywhere else.Now it was becoming something bigger.Something powerful."You're staring at it like it might bite you."I glanced up to find Darius leaning against the doorway.A grin tugged at his mouth.I rolled my eyes."It's a map.""You've been glaring at it for ten minutes.""I've been thinking.""That's usually more dangerous."I laughed despite myself.Darius pushed away from the doorway and crossed the room. His arms wrapped around my waist from behind, and I relaxed into his warmth automatically.The pack bond hummed softly beneath my skin.S

Lila POVThe celebration continued long after the moon reached its highest point.Music drifted through the compound, accompanied by laughter, conversation, and the occasional howl that echoed across Bloodmoon territory. The entire pack seemed determined to celebrate until dawn.For the first time in weeks, there was no looming battle.No emergency council meetings.No threats at the border.No impossible decision waiting for her.Just happiness.Pure, uncomplicated happiness.Lila stood near the edge of the gathering, watching pack members dance around one of the larger bonfires. Children chased one another through the clearing while warriors who normally looked intimidating laughed freely with friends and family.The sight warmed something deep inside her.These people were safe.For now, at least.And that mattered.A hand settled against the small of her back.She didn't need to look to know it was Kade.The bond gave him away immediately."You're doing it again."Lila smiled."Do

Lila's pov Lila woke before dawn.For a few moments, she simply lay still beneath the blankets, listening to the quiet sounds of the compound around her.The distant crackle of morning fires.The soft rustle of leaves beyond the window.The steady breathing of her mates.For once, there was no immediate crisis waiting for her.No rival pack.No hunters.No trial to survive.Just today.A strange mixture of anticipation and disbelief settled in her chest.She had spent so long fighting for survival that peace still felt unfamiliar.Beside her, Kade stirred first.His eyes opened slowly before settling on her."You haven't slept."Lila smiled faintly."A little.""You were staring at the ceiling when I fell asleep.""I was thinking.""That's usually dangerous."She rolled her eyes.Kade's lips twitched.A few months ago, she would've missed that tiny expression.Now she recognized it instantly.The closest thing Kade had to teasing.The bedroom door opened quietly.Darius walked in car

Lila's pov The announcement came at dawn.Lila stood in the council hall surrounded by pack members, her mates at her side, as Elder Miriam stepped forward carrying a weathered wooden box bound in silver bands.The room was silent.Everyone knew what the Third Trial was.And everyone knew it was the one that mattered most.Strength could be trained.Wisdom could be learned.But sacrifice revealed who a person truly was.Miriam rested the box on the council table."The final Luna Trial," she said, "is the Trial of Sacrifice."Lila straightened.She could feel dozens of eyes on her."The artifact inside this box once belonged to Bloodmoon's founding luna. During the Shadow Wars nearly a century ago, it was stolen by the neighboring Stoneclaw Pack. Since then, it has remained in their possession."A murmur passed through the room.Lila frowned slightly.Stoneclaw.She knew the name.A proud, fiercely independent pack that occupied the mountain forests north of Bloodmoon territory. They

Lila's pov The message arrived by raven at dawn.The sound came first, a harsh, insistent caw that cut through the quiet like a blade. It dragged me from sleep slowly, unwillingly, like I was being pulled up from deep water. The warmth around me made it harder to wake. Kade’s arm was draped protec

The tension had been building for days, like a storm cloud growing heavier and darker with every passing hour. I could feel it in the bond , Darius’s jealousy wasn’t just simmering anymore. It was boiling over, threatening to burn everything we’d built.I was sitting with Ronan on the edge of the t

The den was quiet in the aftermath.The others had slipped away sometime in the early hours, Darius with a lingering kiss to my shoulder, Ronan with a soft brush of his fingers across my cheek. I lay curled against Kade’s chest, listening to the steady rhythm of his heartbeat. His arm was draped ov

Kade had been watching me all evening.Not in the usual quiet way he observed everything, but with a deliberate, calculated intensity that made my skin prickle. We had finished dinner, the pack dispersing into the night, when he finally spoke.“Tonight,” he said simply, voice low enough that only t
