“So what exactly will we be doing?” Aria asked, her eyes bouncing between Alpha King Nathan and me. I got it my pulse was racing with the same
excitement.
Conrad stood military-straight as he explained. “You two give us a tactical advantage we can’t get otherwise. Our Sentinels always carry themselves like
warriors it’s impossible to hide completely. But you – his eyes settled on us, young females who look harmless – can blend into crowds naturally.”
‘You can pose as ordinary girls worried about safety, ask questions, gather intelligence without raising suspicion,” he continued. “While our Sentinel work must remain secret, you can move openly, talk to anyone. Right now, we know nothing about the enemy’s base location – that’s our roadblock.
Aria and I exchanged glances. Her slightly raised eyebrows told me she was just as nervous and excited as I was.
‘What exactly would we need to do?” she asked, trying to sound cooler than she felt.
“You’ll train with the reconnaissance team,” Conrad said gravely. “We have specific methods for gathering and transmitting intelligence. You need to
understand all commands and signals to function within our system.”
“We’ll also need to mark you,” Alpha King Nathan cut in. “Not just for safety, but so we can stay in contact. The elders voted against it last night, but with
2 female werewolves being systematically kidnapped, this isn’t optional anymore.”
“With that so-called Rogue Wolf King involved, things could go south fast,” Conrad muttered.
I felt a weird mix of nerves and excitement. Was something wrong with me for wanting this? Goddess, I must be crazy – but maybe that wasn’t such a bad
thing.
“While you’re convincing the elders, could we start training with the team?” Aria asked.
“Smart suggestion,” Taric nodded. “The elders will eventually face reality, but we can’t waste time. The enemy could move any moment. Starting tonight, you’ll join night training. School stays the same, but your evening training is suspended. Everything about this mission is strictly confidential.
We both nodded.
“Eight sharp, meet at the residence entrance, Conrad instructed in a tone I’d never heard from him before. “Eat before you come once training starts,
there’s no breaks.”
This wasn’t just training anymore. This was real.
“You’ll know immediately when there’s progress with the markings,” Alpha King than added. “You may go.”
We stood and headed for the door. As we crossed the threshold, they continued king, not bothering to lower their voices.
“We’re pushing them into the fire. Why are we doing this?’ Conrad’s voice carries clearly.
‘I don’t think they’re ready either, but we have no choice. Now we understand his true objective,” Taric responded, clearly unhappy.
“So we’re just delivering exactly what he wants? Conrad countered, his voice ris
The door closed, cutting off the rest of their conversation. Conrad obviously did approve of our participation. I thought we’d earned his respect, but
maybe in his eyes, we still weren’t qualified. That stung.

I’d trained relentlessly, learned to fight against the best warriors. But if even Comad thought we weren’t ready, maybe we were missing something. He d spent the most time with us during training and knew what we could do. He did seem like someone who’d block others without reason.
Back in our room, I kicked off my shoes and sat cross-legged on my bed. When a first became my roommate, I was thrilled. We had the floor leaders suite on the male side of the hallway – Seraphina had been furious, but Mark happily moved next door. Our room had two beds, two desks, and our own
bathroom. Perfect.
Since Aria arrived, we’d been inseparable, and Seraphina’s crew had backed off. Whether it was Aria’s natural authority or because we beat everyone we
faced, I wasn’t complaining.
What do you think they were talking about back there?” Aria asked after locking our door.
“Sounds like Conrad doesn’t want us on this mission,’ I sighed. “I wish he’d explain why. Maybe there’s some training we haven’t completed that we could
catch up on.”
“He’s worried about something,” she said, sitting on her bed. “Not about us specifically, more like he’s worried for us. With people kidnapping girls, maybe
he’s concerned your royal blood makes you a perfect target.” She nudged me with smile.
“If they were that worried, I wouldn’t be here at all. Training me as an elite warrior just to lock me in a tower makes zero sense.’ I shrugged. “Maybe he’s just tired of my special treatment – missing training for castle business, training with Alpha King Nathan, spending weekends with elders, fancy dress
fittings, schedule changes. Now teachers don’t even blink when warriors come for me.”
“That’s royal life, whether you like it or not.” She patted my head like I was a kid. shoved her toward her bed.
