The moment her body stopped moving, something inside me snapped loose, and the magic lost just enough of its hold to let me move.

My beast finally surged, tearing forward, pushing me to claw my way to Kitty. Her aura had been obliterated by the pressure, but the wolves surrounding us didn’t move. Their attention was on what that fucker Carter was doing to my mate.

Then I was there, my hands grabbing at her, dragging her fully beneath me to shield her from the blows. Her body bent unnaturally against mine, and blood dripped from almost every inch of her skin. The shirt she’d taken from my wardrobe had become soaked and stuck to her skin. Every inch of her looked bruised and broken.

She was still ice-cold, but not the distant cold she’d chosen before. This was different. It felt empty, and I could barely hear her heartbeat.

Panic flooded my veins as I wrapped my arms around her. My shadows burst out and covered us, but they were still flickering, still struggling beneath the pressure.

“And you call yourself the Lycan King?” Carter’s voice cut through the chaos. “Pathetic.”

I couldn’t focus on him or the pain riddling my broken body.

“Kitty.”

Her name tore out of me as I clutched her against my chest. There was no response. The bond between us flickered weakly, barely there, but those remaining threads felt thin and frayed, like something was slowly tearing them apart.

My beast turned violent as I looked up at the cowardly alpha. He had his foot raised again, ready to bring it down. I’d never been treated like this before, even in those early days after my parents died and I had to prove I could sit on the throne.

But now the beast that made grown men tremble was about to get trampled on by an insignificant werewolf alpha while my mate lay in my arms like she was already gone.

“Stop.”

The witch’s voice cut clean through the air from the edge of the park, and Carter’s boot froze mid-motion.

“I can finish this,” he growled. “I can end the two of them right here.”

“You’re not the one giving the orders,” another voice said.

My head turned. The hooded witch from the fog stood there, closer now, her power no longer concealed. It pressed against my chest, heavier than before, as if she’d hidden her full strength when she’d come out to the warehouse. Beside her stood the thin man and a third figure I didn’t recognise, who stood quietly with her hands clasped in front of her.

Three witches. All stronger than anything we had faced before.

Their magic didn’t press down anymore; it pulled, dragging at mine, slowing it down, twisting it into something I could not recognise. And underneath that, something in me answered.

Something just as dark and twisted.

My shadows finally flickered out and snapped back into my body, fully exposing Kitty and me. My grip tightened around her as I forced myself to stand, even as my legs threatened to give out. I kept Kitty pressed against my chest.

“Give in, Your Majesty,” the man in the middle said calmly. “You’re done.”

“No.”

The word came out low and rough but carried a warning that would have made most people back away. Even with the shut-out bond, my protective instincts were raging. My beast surged at the same time, but this time, it didn’t rise under my control. It broke through me. This wasn’t a neat or precise shift.

It wasn’t the same power I’d learned to wield my whole life.

It ripped through me, dropping me to my knees. Bone cracked under my skin as my body expanded, barely giving me enough time to lay Kitty back on the ground. My muscles tore and reformed faster than I could track, and my shadows returned, lashing out instinctively. They were unstable, reaching out without direction.

Heat tore through my veins, burning whatever restraint I had left as my senses sharpened violently. The world snapped into focus in a way I had never experienced before, not even when the mate bond settled both times. Every movement, every breath, every flicker of magic around us was clear.

My claws dug into the ground as I forced myself upright and steadied myself, but something was wrong. This wasn’t my usual form. It was a half-shift, but felt much bigger and heavier. Carter looked insignificant next to me, and his wolves even more so. The power running through me wasn’t just mine anymore-it felt layered, like the familiar and unfamiliar had merged into something more dangerous. Something harder to control.

My vision bled red as my gaze snapped to the three witches.

They had gone still. For the first time, I saw hesitation on the thin man’s face. He stepped forward, but the hooded woman caught his arm, stopping him.

“He’s changed,” she said quietly.

Our eyes locked across the park, and then his face twisted into anger.

“Attack,” he shouted.

The wolves around me moved instantly, launching at me from all directions, their broken bodies moving, driven by whatever held them together. But I wasn’t thinking about them. Kitty was still on the ground, vulnerable, and my body was too weak to withstand another battle. I couldn’t protect her.

I reacted faster than I could think. I grabbed Kitty, and the ground split beneath my feet as I pushed forward. My shadows exploded outwards in a chaotic surge that tore through the space around me. They didn’t aim,

but they didn’t need to. They disrupted everything-vision, balance, even the magic in the air. The confusion was enough for me to run.
