His hand caught my wrist before I could shove him. Those eyes, calculating as ever, pinned me in place. “You think too small. Amara, Killing Derian and handing our son a single park won’t be enough. You’d waste your time playing Luna to a small pack. You’re more ambitious than that.”
1 narrowed my eyes, intrigued despite myself, “What are you suggesting?”
He smirked, releasing my wrist. His hand drifted to the back of my neck, a possessive grip that both infuriated and enticed me. “You really want power! Then think bigger. Much bigger. Dusk Howlers is just one park. You could have the whole damn Wolf Clan under your feet”
My pulse quickened, the idea sinking in like a drug. The entire clan? That meant uniting all the packs, subjugating every damn Alpha until they all bowed down. And 1–we–would be on top

“They will if we make them, he whispered against my car. “Dorian’s pack may be the strongest, but yours, Amara, is the richest. With the right allunces, we could crush any opposition. Let Dorian think he’s untouchable for now. His time will come, and when it does…

I shifted against him, my thoughts racing. Taking over the entire Wolf Chin, bending every Alpha to my will–it was ambitious. No, it was fucking genius. But it wouldn’t be easy. Dorian was no fool And Selene, that little bitch, was still a wildcard in this. As long as she was alive, his attention would always be divided.

I smirked, satisfaction curling in my chest. Dorian had no idea what was coming for him. And Selene, well, she wouldn’t stand a chance either. Gure I was done, there’d be no more obstacles. No more pretending

I was about to argue when I saw him lift his hand, his eyes glinting with an eerie light. Magic. In an instant, a diamond necklace shimmered into existence, delicate and shining as it hung in the air between us.
I stared, my breath catching. He clasped the necklace around my neck, the cold diamonds resting against my skin like a crown. His promise of what
was to come.
“Patience,” he whispered, leaning in close, his lips grazing the side of my neck. “You’ll have everything you’ve ever wanted. You’ll have power. I’ll always love you”
His lips pressed against mine, gentle yet commanding, and the frustration I’d felt moments ago melted away. My heart pounded in my chest, and before I could stop it, a flush of heat crept up my cheeks. He had that effect on me–calming the storm inside me with just a few well–placed words.
I hated how much I needed him, but I loved the way he made me feel–powerful, desired, invincible.
He pulled back has thumb brushing over my lower lip, a smirk playing on his own. “Just stay patient, Amara. The crown is almost ours!
I nodded, feeling a rare shyness overtake me. Me–shy? Around anyone else, it would’ve disgusted me, but with him….I found myself savoring it.
With the necklace around my throat and his promise still ringing in my ears, I allowed myself to believe it. The d reach
