Pain registered in her shriek, a sharp smack against the concrete, and I caught her with my claws, enough to leave her staggered and groaning.

“Stay down,” I warned, my human voice now layered with threat. “You touch her, you won’t walk away.”

I returned immediately to Amy, dropping beside her again. She weakly smiled through her pain, lips trembling. “You… you came,” she whispered.

“Of course,” I said, holding her closer. My heart raced, but my control never wavered. “I always do. You hear me? Always.”

The room was tense, heavy with silence except for our breathing and the faint shuffle of Clara, who was barely recovering from my strike. My wolf snarled inside, ready to erupt, but I kept it locked down.

“I won’t let you–anyone–hurt you,” I murmured into her hair. Her hand traced my chest slowly, a faint pressure, grounding me in a way only she could.

Clara hissed from the corner, wounded, frustrated, but still standing. I didn’t look at her.

“Daniel…” she whispered again, softer this time. “Don’t leave me.”

“I won’t,” I said firmly. “I’ll stay right here. I’m not going anywhere.”

I shifted fully back to human form, keeping my protective arms around her. My wolf simmered beneath the surface, ready if needed, but for now, I was Daniel.

And as her eyes closed briefly, exhaustion overtaking her, I whispered, “You’re safe. I promise. No one will touch you again.”

I lowered Amy onto the bed, careful not to jostle her more than necessary. Her body was still trembling, weak from the effects of the wolfsbane and the fight with Clara. I pulled the blanket over her, brushing hair from her forehead.

“Sleep,” I murmured, “Rest. I’m right here. Nothing will touch you.”

Her lips parted slightly, a soft exhale, and her hand instinctively rested on her stomach. I stayed beside her for a long moment, watching her chest rise and fall, listening to her shallow breaths.

My stomach twisted knowing how close Clara had come, how easily she could have hurt my mate. I didn’t let myself linger. Amy needed rest, and I needed answers.

My mind shifted to my mother. She had been in the hallway, unconscious, when I first arrived. I had picked her up, moved her somewhere safer while still keeping my focus on Amy.

I walked quickly down the hall, scanning for any signs of danger. The house was eerily quiet. Guards and staff were nowhere to be seen. Clara’s presence had left a trace of chaos, but for now, the corridors were empty.

I found my mother where I had left her, sprawled on the floor, pale and groaning softly. Her breathing was

shallow but steady. I knelt beside her, pressing a hand to her forehead.

“Mom,” I said, voice tight. “Stay with me. You’re going to be fine.”

She stirred slightly, eyes flickering open, confusion mixing with pain. “Danicl…” she whispered, her voice weak.

“I’ve got you,” I reassured her. I lifted her carefully into a sitting position, then onto a chair nearby. I grabbed a blanket, wrapping it around her shoulders. She looked at me, fear and gratitude in her eyes.

“Clara…” she croaked. “She… she-”

“I know,” I interrupted, gently but firmly. “I’m going to handle her. You just stay here.”

She nodded, too exhausted to argue. I stood, jaw tight, fists clenched. Clara had overstepped in ways wouldn’t recover from.

She had attacked my mate, my mother, and tested every line I drew. That line ended now.

I left my mother in the relative safety of the room and moved back through the hallway, retracing my steps to where Clara had been lying in wait, knife in hand.

My wolf instincts were simmering beneath my skin, claws itching, teeth bared even as I stayed in human form. My entire body hummed with controlled rage.

Clara was slumped against the wall, arm bleeding where my claws had caught her, knife discarded. Her chest heaved, her smirk gone, replaced with a sharp, wary glare.

She saw me approach and tried to stand, but I didn’t give her the chance.

I grabbed her by the neck with both hands, lifting her slightly off the ground. Her eyes widened in shock and fear for the first time.

“You,” I said, voice low and dangerous. “You are going to regret ever existing if you ever touch my wife or my mother again.”

She struggled weakly, spitting blood from the corner of her mouth. “You think you can-” she started, but I

cut her off.

“Listen carefully,” I said, tightening my grip just enough to hurt but not kill. “You came here thinking you could hurt the people I care about. You thought you could get away with it. You were wrong.”

Her breathing grew faster, panic creeping in. I could see the calculation in her eyes, realizing how far I had pushed her, how completely she was exposed and powerless.

“You’re done,” I continued, voice steady, filled with authority. “If anything happens to Amy, if she loses one second of peace because of you, I swear… I will make sure you wish you were never born. No one will protect you. No one will stop me.”

Clara’s lips trembled as she tried to speak again, but I leaned closer, keeping my eyes locked on hers. “No more words. No more games. You’re going to stay exactly where you are until I decide what to do with you.”

I released her slightly, enough to keep her on her knees but still under my control. Her shoulders slumped, the fight draining out of her. She understood now, She had underestimated me.

“Move,” I barked, motioning toward the pack dungeon. “Cole will take you down. One step out of line, and I won’t hesitate again.”

She didn’t move immediately, hesitating, glaring at me. I felt my wolf twitch beneath my skin, wanting to finish the job myself. But I forced control. I had rules, lines I didn’t cross.
