I didn’t ask questions at first.
That alone should have told me how deep I was already in this.
The Southern Alpha walked ahead of me, his stride calm, unhurried, like the entire park belonged to him–which, in practice, it did.
I followed a step behind, hands clasped behind my back, my mind working faster than my feet.

We were leaving the park. That much was obvious from the direction we took and the the guards parted without question.
“Where are we going?” I finally asked.
He didn’t slow down.
“That is none of your business,” he said flatly.
The answer landed hard but clean. No room for debate.
I shut my mouth and kept walking.
We got into the SUV without ceremony. He took the back seat. I slid in opposite him. The driver said nothing. The engine started, and we pulled away.
Hours passed.
The road changed from smooth pavement to rougher paths. Trees thickened. Cell service disappeared. I stopped checking the time at some point because it no longer mattered.
The Southern Alpha sat with his eyes closed, one arm resting against the door, breathing slow and steady. He looked completely at ease.
I wasn’t.
Eventually, the SUV slowed to a stop.
“Out,” he said.
I stepped out into the cold air and dense forest. The smell of earth and pine filled my lungs. There were no lights, no buildings, no sign that anyone else had ever been here.

The guards exited as well. Six of them. All silent. All watching.
The Southern Alpha took a few steps forward, then stopped.
Without warning, he shifted.
I had seen wolves before. I had shifted wolves before. This was different.

His form tore through the air with a sharp crack of bone and muscle, his human shape folding inward and expanding outward in a way that made my stomach tighten.
He was enormous. Not just tall or wide, but heavy with presence. His fur was dark, streaked with silver at the shoulders and along his spine. His eyes burned with intelligence, not wildness.
I froze.
I had never seen a wolf like that.
Through the mind link, his voice cut through me,
“What are you waiting for?”
I swallowed hard.
“I don’t know how, I admitted. The last time I tried… I felt human.”
His response came instantly.
“Because you were dumb.”
I stiffened.
“I restricted your wolf, you’re free now.”
I clenched my jaw.
“you have pledged your loyalty. The chain is gone. Shift.”
Fear flickered through me. Not of him—but of myself.
I took a breath and reached inward.
For the first time in years, I didn’t push the wolf down.
I let it rise.
The change came fast. Faster than I expected. My bones stretched, muscles snapping into place,

heat ripping through my veins. It hurt—but it felt right.
When it was over, I stood on four legs, breath heavy, senses sharp.
I hadn’t felt this alive in a long time.
“Good, the Southern Alpha said. Follow me.”
Three of the guards shifted as well. The others stayed behind in human form, watching us disappear into the trees.
We ran.
Not at a frantic pace, but steady, purposeful. The forest thickened as we moved deeper, paths appearing where none should exist. I realized then that this place was known only to those meant to find it.
After a while, the Southern Alpha slowed and veered sharply left. The ground dipped. Rocks rose around us.
A cave entrance opened before us.
We shifted back at the mouth. No one spoke as we stepped inside.
The cave led downward, not rough or narrow as I expected, but smooth, reinforced. Lights flickered on as we passed, revealing metal walls, wide corridors, ventilation humming quietly above.
My steps slowed.
“What the hell…” I muttered.
The Southern Alpha glanced back.
“Focus.”
The tunnel opened into a massive underground space.
I stopped completely.
It was an office. Not a crude setup or a temporary base. This was developed. Screens lined the walls. Long tables filled the center. Maps, digital displays, documents–everything organized with military precision.
Alphas stood in clusters, speaking in low tones.
I recognized some of them.

Too many of them.
My stomach dropped.
These were leaders I never thought would align with corruption. With secrecy. With him.
The Southern Alpha walked forward like he owned the room. Conversations quieted as he passed.
I followed, my pulse pounding.
One of the Alphas nodded at him. “You’re late.”
“I arrived when it mattered,” the Southern Alpha replied.
Eyes turned to me.
“This is Elias,” he said. “He is with us.”
No one questioned it.
That terrified me more than anything else.
We gathered around the central table. A map of the territories flickered to life.
“Our objective remains unchanged,” the Southern Alpha said. “Daniel.”
Murmurs spread.
One Alpha crossed his arms. “Direct confrontation won’t work. He’s too protected.”
Another nodded. “And the North stands firmly behind him.”
A third leaned forward. “Then we don’t hit him directly.”
The Southern Alpha’s eyes flicked toward the map. Toward the Northern territory.
“Explain,” he said.
“Amy,” the Alpha replied calmly. “She’s the weakness.”
