| couldn’t wrap my mind around what my brother meant by tellingnot to trust anyone.
There was only one person | struggled to trust, but Magnus himself had handed over our pack to him.
| turned my gaze toward Magnus’s unconscious form. ‘Why did you do it, Magnus?‘ | asked silently, my heart
aching for answers.
He couldn’t respond, not in his condition. But | needed to know what he had learned-what truth he wanted to
share before everything fell apart.
I clung to the hope that he would wake up soon, that he'd take back his rightful place, and we'd return to the
golden days we once knew.
The room was steeped in silence. No one dared to speak, as if saying anything might make the
situation even worse.
Finally, my father broke the stillness with a heavy sigh. “Maybe... maybe he did it to save us from Alpha Hunter's

| listened to him, but I couldn’t form an opinion. The truth was undeniable: the head Alpha of our pack was now
Kane. That single fact loomed over everything else.
| shifted my gaze to my children, my heart tightening. I'd already lost the pack. | couldn't bear to lose my babies
too.
“Mom? Dad? What do | do now?” | asked, my voice trembling. “Kane knows the truth. He won't stay quiet. He's
going to act. | can feel it.”
My mother cover and wrapped her arms around me, pullinginto her warmth. Tears welled in my eyes as
| clung to her.
“Why didn’t you two run away through the back door?” | whispered, the words shaking with emotion. “You
could've saved yourselves.”
| wasn’t blaming them, but the thought haunted me. The back door had been their chance to escape. What if
one of them had lost their life in the chaos?
My mother pulled back, lookingin the eyes. “Selene, Alpha Hunter's wolves attacked the pack house from
the back door.”
Her words hitlike a slap. “What? How did they know about it?”
My father stepped closer, resting a hand on my head. | looked up at him, tears streaming down my
face.
“We tried to protect your children,” he said softly. “I even told your mother to escape. But just as she was about
to leave, they broke in through the back door. It was as if they already knew about it.”
| stared at him, stunned. “But, Dad, only we knew about the door. No one outside the Alpha’s family and his
officials was aware of it.”
“Maybe Alpha Hunter found it when he chere for the pack meeting,” our theta offered hesitantly.
It was a plausible explanation, but it didn’t makefeel any better. | sank down onto the bed, hopeless and
overwhelmed. | didn’t know where things would go from here.

Axel’s voice broke through my thoughts. “But, Selene, why did you cto the battlefield? Didn't Magnus tell
you to stay inside?”

| turned to look at him, my expression hardening. “Why did Magnus forbid the guards from givingany
information about the war?”
“It was for your safety,” Axel replied.
“He shouldn't have done that,” | said firmly. “I could've helped him. If it weren't for our Gamma informing me, |
wouldn't have even known what was happening.”
“Gamma?” Axel echoed, his brow furrowing in confusion.
| tilted my head slightly, puzzled by his reaction. “Yes. He contactedthrough the mind link and told me
Magnus’s life was in danger.”
Axel’s expression darkened. “Why would he tell you that?”
| blinked at him, uncertain of what he meant. “He said | should inform Dad to join the fight and help Magnus.
That's why | went to the battlefield.”
“But if he wantedthere, why didn’t he contactdirectly?” my father asked, his voice laced with suspicion.
He was right. The Gamma could've reached out to my father directly instead of linking with me. Why hadn't he?
A sudden realization struck me, sending a chill down my spine. | shot up from the bed, my face pale with shock.
Spinning toward Axel, | demanded, “Where is our Gamma? | didn’t see him during the war. Why didn’t The try to
help Magnus when Alpha Hunter was attacking him?”
