up in a troublesome conted. 

“What did Roman do?” I asked, my voice sharp. 

Jason paused. “He broke Alexander’s arm” 

The words dropped like a stone between us. My grip on the decorative banister lightened until I thought it might snap under my hand. “He what?” 

“It escalated fast,” Jason said carefully, clearly trying to explain without openly condemning Alexander “Roman intervened before things could spiral He trade it clear–our efforts tieve were unwelcome.” 

My anger surged. A foreign Alpha had dared to lay a hand on my son. Someone other than Scarlett’s insolence was now directly humiliating my family it was intolerable. I told him to back away from Scarlett’s madness. And now look where he’s landed himself,” i muttered to myself, cutting the link with Jason before he could stammer further excuses. 

Inside the study, James’s tone was deliberate and cutting. My mate, Alpha of the Amber Pack, rarely expressed his anger openly, but his disappointment carried the weight of a boulder

than to challenge. 

“She’s dying,” he muttered after a long pause, stiffly addressing Grace’s condition. 

“And what do you want us to do about it?” James countered coolly. He took a long drag from his cigar, exhaling the smoke through his nose. “You think pack leadership bows to the whims of an Omega’s suffering because she bats her eyelashes at you? Focus on the bigger picture, Alexander.” 

“She’s not just an Omega,” Alexander said stubbornly, his voice cracking slightly. His fingers dug into his cast as if to channel his frustration elsewhere 

“She’s 

he’s a distraction!” James snapped, rising abruptly from his chair. The force of his authority filled the room like a heavy fog, pressing down on both wolves present. “And she’s pulling you into constant turmoil. Tell me, how is her condition any less problematic than three years ago, when Scarlett stirred chaps in this family, leaving us with political wounds we still haven’t mended? Don’t you see the parallels? Don’t you learn?” 

Alexander flinched slightly but tried not to show it. His icy demeanor only half succeeded in hiding his internal tempest 

“She’s not like Scarlett,” Alexander bit out, though Mason’s underlying growl betrayed how torn he truly was. “Grace simply needs help. Scarlett’s defiance, her 

“Her defiance has saved her,” James cut through harshly, narrowing his eyes. “Grace, on the other hand, has clung to you like a sinking ship. Think, Alexander. Prioritize the pack or step aside. There is no room for compassion in the face of survival 

The finality in James’s voice left no room for further argument. Alexander inclined his head slightly in reluctant acknowledgment, but everything about his posture screamed quiet rebellion Mason stirred uneasily within him, tethered by the rigid obedience demanded of him. 

“You’re dismissed,” James said sharply. “Send Jason in,” 

I intercepted Jason in the hallway before he could even knock on the study’s door. The tension radiating from him was nearly palpable. 

“Beta Jason” I said coolly. “A word,” 

His 

hesitation was clear in the stiffness of his shoulders. He kept his gaze lowered just enough to avoid outright defiance but high enough to show The wouldn’t cower 

“Do you make a habit of hiding key details from me?” I asked simply, though the deliberate sharpness in my tone made Selene rumble in satisfaction. 

Jason shook his head quickly. “Not at all, Alpha Victoria, I–I thought it best for Alexander to explain.” 

“And clearly, Alexander’s judgment has been compromised. Between that Omega pulling his strings and Scarlett provoking him at every turn, your Alpha has made mistake after mistake,” I said, stepping closer. “Why didn’t you stop him? Why didn’t you warn him about targeting Scarlett?” 

Jason’s voice wavered. “Respectfully, Alpha, no one stops Alexander.” 

I scoffed, Selene’s disdain prickling at my edges. “No one stops him? Roman stopped him easily enough.” 

Jason winced as though the reminder physically pained him. 

“What happened?” I pressed, determined to wring the truth from him. “What in the Goddess’s name was achieved by that encounter?”
