Guerero’s Point of ViewI wasn't supposed to feel this way.Not anymore.Not after everything he had done.And yet...the moment I saw Guerero with her,something inside me still broke.Genaro's arm was wrapped around my waist.Firm.Possessive.Not subtle.Not gentle.It felt deliberate.Like he was showing me off to the entire room.And maybe he was.He was the center of attention tonight.So of course...the woman beside him had to be seen too."Do you think he's going to kill me?" Genaro asked casually.I blinked.Confused."What?"He nodded toward Guerero.Clearly amused."That look on your face..."He grinned."I'm starting to think I should be worried."My stomach tightened.I followed his gaze.Guerero.And Ruby.Together.Not just standing side by side.They came here as a couple.Like they weren't even trying to hide it.I let out a quiet breath.Of course they did.What was I expecting?Ruby was carrying his child.His first child.The future Alpha's bloodline.That alone

Ruby's Point of ViewI didn't understand it.No matter what I did...it was wrong.Luna Lorraine looked at me like I didn't belong here.Like I shouldn't even exist.And I didn't know why."Why do you hate me so much?" I asked.My voice broke."Why don't you like me? What did I do?"The words came out messy.Barely holding together.First Guerero.Now his mother.It felt like neither of them saw me as someone who could be hurt.Like my feelings didn't matter.Like I was nothing.But Luna Lorraine didn't soften.She scoffed.Cold.Disgusted.She had never liked me.Not since Guerero told her in his letter that I was carrying his child.She didn't want me here.Never did.Her solution had been simple.Pay me.Send me away.Let me raise the baby alone while they supported us from afar.Out of sight.Out of the pack.Because she only wanted one future Luna.Azerbel.The girl she had raised.The girl she had chosen.Not me.Never me.But Guerero brought me back anyway.Not because he wante

Azerbel's Point of ViewThe moment I stepped toward the main hall, something in my chest tightened.Too tight.Like I was walking into a place that had already decided my fate.My heartbeat filled my ears as I followed the warrior down the corridor.I knew him.Not well.But enough to recognize the look he gave me.Careful.Almost...sorry."Azerbel," he said quietly, slowing his steps. "Just a reminder. Guerero is furious. He wants to banish you."He hesitated.Like he didn't want to say the rest."Choose your words carefully."So it was already decided.Or close enough."Thank you, Mille," I said.My voice came out softer than I expected.Genaro had warned me.I knew this was coming.Still...hearing it from someone else made it real in a different way.He didn't have to warn me.But he did.Maybe not everyone here had turned their back on me."Good luck," Mille said.I gave him a small smile.It felt fragile.Like it might break if I held it for too long.Then the doors opened.And

Luna Lorraine's Point of ViewThe room shifted before the words even settled."What do you mean he asked for Azerbel as a symbol of peace?" I asked.Sharper than I intended."She's a person, not something you pass around."Something tightened inside my chest.A warning I couldn't ignore.I had never liked Genaro.From the first moment I saw him,something felt...off.Too relaxed.Too careless.An alpha who acted like nothing in the world could touch him.Men like that were either fools...or far more dangerous than they seemed.His father had been different.Focused.Ruthless in a way that made sense.You always knew where you stood with him.Genaro gave you nothing.And somehow,that made him worse.If I was being honest,I had even felt relieved when Guerero killed his father.Genaro had seemed easier to deal with.Less dangerous.I see now how wrong I was."What do you mean, a symbol of peace?" I asked again.More slowly this time.My fingers curled against my palm."Explain it to

Azerbel’s Point of ViewSomething was about to break.I could feel it.Not just tension.Something worse.Because if Guerero and Genaro lost control,this wouldn't end with words."Alpha Genaro, please step back," Roland said, trying to keep his voice steady. "Nothing has been decided yet. You're still a guest here."Genaro didn't move.Didn't even blink.His eyes stayed fixed on my wrist.On Guerero's hand."Don't sound so sure," he said quietly. "Ask your alpha what has already been decided."The way he said it...Like it was done.Like no one else's opinion mattered.A cold weight settled in my chest."What decision?" I asked.I tried to pull my hand free.It didn't work.Guerero's grip tightened."You're not going anywhere," he said.The words felt wrong.Too late.Too convenient.Just days ago,he wanted me gone.I didn't say it.I didn't have to.Genaro laughed.Low.Sharp."Mutt," he said, his voice dripping with mockery. "You were ready to throw her out. And now you're holding
