The night had fallen deep over the coastal town, wrapping the streets in a hush that only the rhythm of the sea could interrupt. The hotel stood like a quiet sentinel against the dark, its glass walls reflecting the silver sheen of moonlight. Inside, the corridors were dim, the plush carpet swallowing every footstep.

Matthew stood at the end of the hallway, his hand lingering against the cold brass of the door handle. The muffled hum of voices came from inside, but he didn’t move yet. For hours, he had been pacing his room, debating whether to confront Tiffany again or let things settle on their own. But the weight in his chest, the relentless churn of thoughts, refused to let him rest.

When he finally entered, the soft scent of disinfectant from the clinic still clung faintly to the air. Tiffany was sitting on the sofa, her knees drawn up to her chest, her face turned toward the balcony. The sheer curtains swayed from the ocean breeze that crept in, brushing over her hair. Max sat on

    The curtains were drawn, the air still. Lukas sat cross-legged on the floor, the Obsidian Dagger resting in his hands. The chain was warm, almost alive, and each pulse sent a faint vibration up his arms.He closed his eyes.Let me in.The world around him shifted. The marble floor dissolved into cracked black stone, the walls into endless pillars of shadow. Above, there was no sky — only a swirling, endless void.He was inside the Phantom Gate.A voice echoed from everywhere and nowhere at once.You came sooner than I expected.Lukas turned toward the sound. William stood at the edge of a cliff, his white shirt fluttering in a wind that didn’t exist. His eyes were the same — cold, mocking, dangerous — but here, in the Gate, they glowed faintly red.“You’ve been watching,” Lukas said.William smiled. “Always. I see you’ve been busy… sniffing out this ‘Leon.’”Lukas walked toward him, the black stone shifting under his feet like a living thing. “He’s more than Leon. He’s Andrew. Alive.”

    The air smelled of rain and rust, and the wind carried a low, almost inhuman hum. Inside, Andrew leaned against a steel table, arms folded, watching Jerome pace.“You’re taking a risk meeting me here,” Jerome muttered. His voice was low but sharp, eyes flicking to the shadows as though they had ears.“They always have ears,” Andrew said calmly. “That’s why I chose this place. The noise from the turbines will scramble any remote surveillance.”Jerome stopped pacing. His face was paler than usual, the faint shimmer of pain in his eyes betraying the wounds he was still hiding. “You think Lukas is getting closer.”“I know he is,” Andrew replied. “He’s circling me. He doesn’t know I’m Leon yet… but he will. And when he does, he won’t hesitate.”Jerome stepped closer. “Then we hit him first.”Andrew’s gaze was steady, unblinking. “Not yet.”The far end of the warehouse rattled as the wind caught the loose metal siding. Jerome glanced over his shoulder. “You’re playing a dangerous game, Andr

    The rain came down in sheets over the glass walls of Ravage Inc’s penthouse, blurring the skyline into a smear of gold and black. Lukas stood with his hands clasped behind his back, watching the city like a man staring at prey he hadn’t yet decided how to kill.“Sir,” came the voice of Mara, his chief intelligence officer. Her heels clicked softly against the marble as she approached, a tablet in her hand. “We’ve intercepted another communique between the investors in Dubai and the man they call ‘Leon.’”Lukas didn’t turn around. “And?”Mara hesitated, flicking the tablet awake. “There’s… a pattern. Every single deal Leon touches indirectly targets our supply chain. It’s surgical. Precise. Too precise for a man who’s only been on the scene six months.”Now Lukas did turn. His eyes were sharp, the obsidian glint in them just barely visible in the dim light. “You’re saying he’s not just a rival. He’s… something else.”Mara nodded. “I’m saying he’s not who he says he is. And… we found th

    The moon hung low over the restless sea, its silver light spilling across the rippling water and the empty stretch of beach below the resort. Inside the dimly lit hotel lounge, Tiffany sat curled up on one of the wide armchairs, her eyes fixed on the untouched cup of coffee in front of her. The low hum of distant conversation filled the room, but it all blurred into white noise. She hadn’t slept well, and it showed — faint shadows lingered beneath her eyes, and her hair, usually flawless, was slightly tousled as if she’d run her hands through it too many times.From the corner of her vision, she caught the movement of Matthew walking past the glass doors toward the terrace. He carried himself with that same quiet authority that had always unsettled her — the sort of presence that made people instinctively step aside without even realizing it. Laura wasn’t with him this time.For a few moments, Tiffany debated whether to follow him or stay put. Part of her wanted to demand answers, to

    The tension inside the Alpha’s office could be cut with a blade. Jared stood near the massive oak desk, his arms crossed over his chest, his golden eyes locked on Kiera as if he could pierce through her very soul. Every flicker of candlelight along the walls cast shadows across his sharply drawn features, making him look even more imposing.Kiera’s heart thudded in her chest, each beat echoing in her ears. She had faced rogues before, endured days of relentless travel, and returned to the pack bruised and battered, but the way Jared was looking at her now made her knees weaken. He wasn’t just angry—he was livid.“I told you,” Jared’s voice was low but filled with danger. “You don’t leave this territory without my permission. And yet, here you are… coming back on death’s door.”“I had to,” Kiera whispered, her voice trembling but steady enough to hold his gaze. “I needed to—”“You needed to what? Throw yourself into the arms of rogues?” Jared cut her off, slamming his palm down on the

    The wind carried the scent of rain before the first drop ever touched the ground. Gray clouds gathered over the distant mountains, promising a storm, yet the tension in the pack grounds had little to do with the weather. Every wolf who passed through the courtyard sensed it — a restlessness, an unspoken question lingering in the air.Jared stood on the balcony of the Alpha’s house, his hands gripping the railing so tightly his knuckles turned white. From here, he could see nearly the entire training field, where warriors moved with mechanical precision, unaware — or perhaps too aware — of their leader’s simmering mood. His eyes followed each pair, scanning for weaknesses, but his mind was far from the drills.Kiera was somewhere beyond those gates. He had been telling himself she was safe, that her journey back from her mother’s pack would be uneventful. But a part of him — the part that had learned to distrust peace — couldn’t shake the unease.Behind him, footsteps approached, light
