Chapter 10
** *NERO POV**
“Crossing pack lines alone is suicide, Nero.”
I didn’t care.
I’d masked my scent with nightshade and ash. Old trick. Should work on most wolves.
But Riverside Pack weren’t most wolves. They were hunters. The best trackers in the region.
Still, I was the Dark Alpha.
And I needed to see where my runaway mate thought she could hide from me.

I moved through the trees. Through the bond, I felt her getting weaker. The separation was killing her slowly.
I reached the edge of her family’s property. Stayed in the shadows.
And watched.
They were celebrating. Her whole fucking family were drinking and Laughing. Music playing loud enough to wake the dead.
On the table, I saw the Moonstone seal. The payment letter. Blood money.
They’d spent it all before even confirming she was dead.
The front door opened.
Rémi stumbled in. Her friends were holding her up. She looked bale. She was shaking she swayed and her legs gave out.
Her friends caught her before she hit the ground.
“What’s wrong with her?” one of them asked.
“The bond,” I muttered from the shadows. “It’s stronger than I thought.”
I could take her now. Throw her over my shoulder. Carry her bark where she belonged.
But that would be too easy.
She needed to crawl back on her own. Needed to see that I was the only one who could save her.
I turned to leave. And that’s when I heard it,
A low growl. Shit.
The first wolf stepped out from the trees. Then another,
Then five more. They’d picked up my scent,
Fuck.
“A Moonstone Alpha,” an older wolf said. Probably their head traker, “You’re far from home.”
More wolves appeared. Ten. Fifteen. Twenty. could take ten. Mahe fifteen if I shifted.

But twenty? On their territory? That was war.
“It’s just one wolf,” a younger one said. “We can-”
“Look at his eyes,” the tracker interrupted. “It was glowing Silver. That’s an alpha.”
1 let my power radiate just enough to make them nervous.
“Only alphas can shift outside the full moon,” someone whispered. “Aside from Deeproot clan.”
“We should get the Alpha Manuel,” another said. “He’ll want to- shifted.
Let them see what they were dealing with. My black wolf was massive biigger than three normal wolves.
The wolves froze. “Black wolf,” the tracker breathed. “I’ve never sen one in person.”
“They’re rare,” someone else said. “One in a thousand.”
“And nearly impossible to kill.”
The younger wolves started backing away. Smart.

I didn’t attack yet. I Just stood there and et them see and unders and my power. Then I turned and walked away.
Not running. Walking. Showing them I wasn’t leaving because I ad to. I was leaving because I chose to.
I made it back to the palace just before midnight. My mother was waiting in the hallway.
“Where have you been?” Her eyes were suspicious. “Your guards wouldn’t let me in your chambers. Everyone’s worried your mad bride attacked you.”
“She’s not mad. I walked past her. “She defended herself from you.
“From ME?” She grabbed my arm. “I don’t know what you are talking about-”
“Of course you don’t.” I kept walking. “Get Kade. Time to lock me in.”
“That girl will destroy you.”
I stopped and looked back.
“She already has,” I said. “And I’m going to enjoy every second of it.”
Kade showed up five minutes later. He locked my wrists to the bedframe and Tested them. Double–checked.
“She’s not back yet,” he said quietly.
“She will be.”
“You sure about that?” Through the bond, I coudn’t feel her.That upsetted me.
“I’m sure.” I tested the chains. They held. “Don’t let anyone in he chambers. No one should know she’s missing.” Kade hesitated. “Are you sure you want her back? After everything?”
“More than I’ve ever wanted anything” He left without another word.
Finally Peace. I closed my eyes. And the dream started.
I was in the throne room.

Chapter 10
And Remi was sitting on my throne.
In every other dream, she’d never spoken. Never looked at me. Just existed.
But this time, she smiled.
“Hello, Nero.”
“What the hell are you doing in my chair?” I walked toward her. Get out.”
She stood. Walked down the steps.
And I froze. White hair. Not the dark brown I knew. Fire eyes…The Woman from
my
dreams
“Who are you?” I reached out. Touched her face. “Why do you look like my wife?”

“I’m Future Remi.” She smiled. “I came to torment you. Punish you for everything I went through because of you.”
“That’s impossible.”
“Is it?” She touched my face. Her hand was warm. Solid. Real. “You’ve been dreaming about me for months. I’ve been trying to reach you. To warn you.”
“Warn me about what?”
“About everything.” She smiled sadly. “But I can’t tell you. You have to live through it. The betrayal. The obsession. The pain. All of it.”
“What are you doing on my
throne?”
“Testing you. Seeing if you’d fight me for it.” She stepped closer. You didn’t. Interesting.”

“If you’re really from the future, tell me something. Prove it.”
“Fine.” She circled me slowly. “Right now, present–me just ran home. Thinking my family missed me. Stupid, right? And you followed. Watched from the shadows. Almost got caught by Riverside wolves.”
My blood went cold. “How do you know that?”
“Because I remember. This is where you came back. Said I’d crawl back to your bed. And you were right. You’re ALWAYS right. It’s annoying.”
“Is this a dream?”
“This is a dream.” “Yes.” She moved closer. “But also no.”
Her scent hit me. Exactly like Remi. But stronger. Richer,
My cock hardened immediately.
“You’re not real,” I said.
“Real enough.” Her hand slid down my chest. “I’m guessing you jst took my virginity earlier today. God, that was hot.”
“How can you-”
“Access your dreams?” She smiled, ” Know about my almost deat situation earlier)
“Are you really-”

“I wish I could cut through all the bullshit. The months of love and hate and betrayal and obsession. But I can’t. You need to live it. Experience it. Or you won’t understand.““Understand wha?”
“Why I’m in your dreams. What I become. What WE become. Her hand traced down my chest. “But soon. You’ll know soon.”
She pushed my shirt off. “But right now, we don’t have much time. After tonight, it’ll take time before I can visit again.”
“Wait-”
“Wear thicker clothing tomorrow,” she interrupted. “Leather. Youll need it. Trust me.”
“Why-”
She kissed me. And I forgot the question.
This Remi was different. Confident and Experienced in a Dangerous way.
She pushed me toward the Throne and Climbed on top of me.
“I remember this day” she murmured against my lips. “The night you marked me. The night everything changed.”
Her hands worked my belt. My pants.
Remi-”
“Shh.” She freed my cock. Stroked it slowly. “No talking. Just fucking.”
She was naked. When did she get naked?
It Didn’t matter. She positioned herself over me and Sank down
She was tight and fucking Hot. Perfect.
“Fuck,” I groaned.
“That’s the plan.” She started moving and riding me like she owned me.
And maybe, in her timeline, she did. This wasn’t the shy virgin from tonight. This was a woman who knew exactly what she wanted.
She rolled her hips and found the angle that made me see stars. You feel so good,” she breathed. “Even better than I remembered.”
“This is insane-”
“This is us.” She leaned down and Kissed my throat. Right over where I’d marked Real Remi. “We’re entangled, Nero. Always have been.”
I grabbed her hips and Thrust up into her. She gasped and Moaned. “Yes. Like that.”
I flipped her and pinned her under me.
“My turn,” I growled.
She smiled. “There’s the Dark Alpha I know.”
I fucked her hard and Deep. The way I wanted to fuck Real Rem but had been too careful.
This Remi could take it and Wanted it rough.
